WASHINGTON, Nov. 14 — One of the most resonant arguments in the debate over Iraq holds that the United States can move forward by pulling its troops back, as part of a phased withdrawal. If American troops begin to leave and the remaining forces assume a more limited role, the argument holds, it will galvanize the Iraqi government to assume more responsibility for securing and rebuilding Iraq.
This is the case now being argued by many Democrats, most notably Senator Carl Levin of Michigan, the incoming chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, who asserts that the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq should begin within four to six months.
But this argument is being challenged by a number of military officers, experts and former generals, including some who have been among the most vehement critics of the Bush administration's Iraq policies.
Anthony C. Zinni, the former head of the United States Central Command and one of the retired generals who called for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, argued that any substantial reduction of American forces over the next several months would be more likely to accelerate the slide to civil war than stop it.
"The logic of this is you put pressure on Maliki and force him to stand up to this," General Zinni said in an interview, referring to Nuri Kamal al-Maliki, the Iraqi prime minister. "Well, you can't put pressure on a wounded guy. There is a premise that the Iraqis are not doing enough now, that there is a capability that they have not employed or used. I am not so sure they are capable of stopping sectarian violence."
Instead of taking troops out, General Zinni said, it would make more sense to consider deploying additional American forces over the next six months to "regain momentum" as part of a broader effort to stabilize Iraq that would create more jobs, foster political reconciliation and develop more effective Iraqi security forces.
The debate over American troop levels in Iraq was raging well before the establishment in March of the bipartisan Iraq Study Group led by James A. Baker III, a former secretary of state, and Lee H. Hamilton, a former congressman. Initially, it centered on Mr. Rumsfeld's stewardship at the Pentagon and whether the United States had deployed sufficient forces and taken the requisite nation-building steps to defeat, or at least contain, a virulent insurgency.
But as the character of the Iraq conflict has changed over the past year, so has the debate. The primary worry for American commanders now is preventing the bloody cycle of drive-by shootings, kidnappings and bombings from spiraling into an all-out civil war.
With more American than Iraqi soldiers in Baghdad, there has been mounting frustration on the part of American officials over the failure of the Iraqi government to send sufficient reinforcements to the Iraqi capital, to establish a genuine "unity government" and to effectively challenge the power of the militias, some of whom have infiltrated the very Iraqi Army and police units that the American military is working with.
In essence, the current debate turns on whether Iraqi leaders would be susceptible to the sort of blunt American pressure entailed by troop reductions. Arguing that such pressure was necessary, Senator Levin joined forces with another Democrat, Senator Jack Reed of Rhode Island, to offer an amendment in June calling for a phased reduction of American troops, a measure he stressed has been supported by all of the potential Democratic presidential candidates. The proposal is less sweeping than most other Democratic proposals, which have called for the withdrawal of all American forces over a fixed time frame. Senator Levin's plan has assumed more political importance following the Democratic gains in the midterm elections.
"There is no purely military solution here," Mr. Levin said in an interview. "They have got to reach a political compromise in Iraq. The leaders have got to make concessions involving power sharing and resource sharing or else this insurgency and the violence continues to spiral."
While Mr. Levin's plan calls for beginning troop reductions over the next six months, it does not stipulate a time-frame for completing the withdrawal, or spell out precisely how many troops should be removed in the initial phase. The plan, however, does call for shifting the American military role to more limited missions like protecting the American Embassy, training the Iraqi forces and engaging in counterterrorist operations against cells of Al Qaeda.
"The point of the proposal is to force the Iraqis to take hold of the situation politically," Mr. Levin said.
But some current and retired military officers say the situation in Baghdad and other parts of Iraq is too precarious to start thinning out the number of American troops. In addition, they worry that some Shiite leaders would see the reduction of American troops as an opportunity to unleash their militias against the Sunnis and engage in wholesale ethnic cleansing to consolidate their control of the capital.
John Batiste, a retired Army major general who also joined in the call for Mr. Rumsfeld's resignation, described the Congressional proposals for troop withdrawals as "terribly naïve."
"There are lots of things that have to happen to set them up for success," General Batiste, who commanded a division in Iraq, said in an interview, describing the Iraqi government. "Until they happen, it does not matter what we tell Maliki."
Before considering troop reductions, General Batiste said, the United States needs to take an array of steps, including fresh efforts to alleviate unemployment in Iraq, secure its long and porous borders, enlist more cooperation from tribal sheiks, step up the effort to train Iraq's security forces, engage Iraq's neighbors and weaken, or if necessary, crush the militias.
Indeed, General Batiste has recently written that pending the training of an effective Iraqi force, it may be necessary to deploy tens of thousands of additional "coalition troops." General Batiste said he hoped that Arab and other foreign nations could be encouraged to send troops.
Some military experts said that while the American military is stretched thin, the number of American troops in Iraq could be increased temporarily — by perhaps 10,000 or more, in addition to the 150,000 or so already there — by prolonging combat tours.
Kenneth M. Pollack, an expert at the Brookings Institution who served on the staff of the National Security Council during the Clinton administration, also argued that a push for troop reductions would backfire by contributing to the disorder in Iraq.
"If we start pulling out troops and the violence gets worse and the control of the militias increases and people become confirmed in their suspicion that the United States is not going to be there to prevent civil war, they are to going to start making decisions today to prepare for the eventuality of civil war tomorrow," he said. "That is how civil wars start."

You've got questions; We've got the answers. Contact us today to find out more. At Unland, no question is too little, no problem too big.
A. Smart thinking. Unland Insurance can save you more than 30 percent off the total cost if you combine your policies (i.e. have them both through Unland).
A: When you get married, when you have a child, when life happens, before life happens. As with any type of insurance, you never know when you will need it, but you can't afford not to have it. Upon your passing, life insurance helps your loved ones pay for things such as funeral expenses, debt, mortgage payments and tuition.
A: Just as you may think: Be the best driver you can be. The most effective way to prevent an insurance company from canceling your policy is to keep your driving record free of accidents, tickets and moving violations.
A: It will. Liability, comprehensive and collision coverage is connected to your vehicle, not to you. Your vehicle insurance provides the key coverage for injury and damage if someone else is driving the car when a crash occurs.
A: Yes. He'll need to be added to your car insurance policy; the law says all drivers must carry insurance. Once he's 18, he can get his own insurance if you two prefer.
A: Homeowner policies cover two key areas: property and liability. Property insurance protects your home and your possessions. Personal liability insurance covers any money you must legally pay to someone for actions caused by your property, you or your family members, or your property.
A: The property owner's insurance only covers the building -- not the tenant's belongings -- in most cases. Renter's insurance is available for as low as $100 per year, a pretty wise investment.

Thanks to regeneration through the later twentieth century, Sheffield has more trees per resident than any other European city. Gaze at its skyline to see branches interspersed with chimneys. Home to a number of annual festivals and vibrant nightlife, and with a rich industrial heritage, this is a happening city with lots to reward any visitor.
Once synonymous with the industrial revolution, Sheffield is now one of the greenest cities in Europe.
Things to do
A number of successful pop and rock bands hail from Sheffield, so it's no surprise that the Tramlines, an annual music festival, is held here. There are also comedy and film festivals throughout the year.
Between them the Crucible, the Lyceum and the Studio Theatre make up the biggest theatre district in the UK outside of London – making Sheffield a cultural hotspot and perfect for a city break. You can listen to arias by Opera North perform here, or catch a West End show on tour.
There are 89 parks within Sheffield itself, including the Peace Gardens right in the city centre with its impressive water features. Sheffield is also on the edge of the Peak District National Park, an area of rugged beauty and a favourite escape for walkers.
If you're wondering which celebrities hail from Sheffield, don't miss the Walk of Fame in the city centre. It's like Hollywood, Yorkshire-style.

Message from the Chairman: Amy Hassinger, 2019 Foundation Chair
As the seasons change and the gavel is passed on, I can't help but feel a sense of excitement and purpose as I reflect on the past accomplishments of the Foundation and look forward to celebrating its 10th Anniversary in 2019! This is both an honor and a privilege to be able to lead the Foundation in service to our NSBA members in this anniversary year.
We all have our own dreams and aspirations of success with our horses. Their health and wellbeing is always on our minds. Our NSBA Foundation is committed to helping to sharing the dreams and caring for as many equine enthusiasts as we can. Your support allows us to continue to offer funding and development of personal and professional opportunities for our NSBA Community.
2018 was a monumental year of growth for the NSBA Foundation. My friend, Rebecca Hogan, led our Foundation on the platform of Together We Grow. And yes, we grew.
Your belief in and financial support of the Foundation allowed us to ensure the rider based NSBA Boot Camps continue well into the future. These unique opportunities for NSBA members and other horse enthusiasts to come ride with our industry's top instructors in a multi-day riding clinic at locations across the U.S. are second to none.
Connecting therapeutic riding industry leaders with our show horse community stakeholders provides an inclusive environment of collaboration to ensure all riders are made aware of the competitive platform NSBA offers. Our first Coach's Summit event did just that.
The three day professional development event featured instruction from industry professionals, post-secondary educators, therapeutic riding instructors and business professionals to explore opportunities for engagement and the expansion of riding programs and learn about NSBA competitive events that celebrate the inclusion of Equestrians with Disabilities and US Veterans who use horses as a form of therapeutic riding. The 2nd Annual Coach's Summit will be held this coming March in North Texas. I personally invite each of you to come join us to at any of the special events NSBA offers.
The Foundation will continue to seek financial support and industry wide participation to increase educational opportunities for new professionals to ensure their success within our industry ensuring the show community is here for generations to come. Developing a professional program that will provide education, access to top industry professionals, business advice and all of the tools of the trade that ensure tomorrows horsemen are successful is a top priority for the NSBA Foundation. Safeguarding the community of show horse enthusiasts exists in for future generations is at the heart of the NSBA Foundations goals.
The Youth Scholarship program continues to grow as it supports the collegiate aspirations of our NSBA youth members. With your financial help, we can continue to help NSBA families defray some of the expenses of higher education! Looking after the needs of our future starts with the support of our youth.
Supporting the Equestrians with Disabilities and Heroes on Horses program will remain a top priority as well. Your donations to our grant program for riders and their horses to attend and compete at the NSBA World Show is one that makes such a difference in the lives of so many. We also fund and support the EWD and Heroes on Horse at the Quarter Horse Congress as a partnership with the Ohio Quarter Horse Association. If you were at either of those events, you may have seen or participated in the "Parade of Flags" that honored not only our competing US Veterans, but veterans across the globe that serve so we can ride. Many of you have family members that serve and the NSBA Heroes on Horses program recognizes the sacrifices each and every service member makes together with their families, to keep our country and our freedom safe.
The Equestrians With Disabilities and Heroes On Horses classes had a special meaning for each and every one who contributed to provide grants for these riders to attend our world show! I had the honor of presenting awards and can't begin to count the number of hugs and "Thank-You" comments received from excited winners and their support teams. I look forward to providing this experience to EWD and Veteran riders again in 2019 and hope that you will join me in this rewarding experience.
And finally, the Trainer's Crisis Fund continues to bless to those NSBA professionals who may experience an unexpected hardship. We are a family, we care about others and we are here to lend a "helping hand" when it is needed. Perhaps the most silent of our recipient, I have seen how your personal donations and support make a difference in the lives of our fellow members and assure you, the Crisis Fund saves lives.
We have a BIG year ahead of us in 2019 as we celebrate our 10 Year Anniversary! Our board is working together to promote "Sharing the Dream" and "Inclusion of all Competition Riders" in the NSBA community through exciting efforts aimed at supporting our membership based on NSBA goals and purposes.
I personally invite you to reach out to me or any board member and become involved. With your help we can Share the Dream and make wishes come true for others. There is nothing more fulfilling than knowing that just a little of your time or financial support can make a huge difference in the life of another. I have experienced it first hand and invite you to experience it as well.
With humble gratitude,
Amy Hassinger
2019 NSBA Foundation Chair
I want to encourage everyone who has donated in the past to please consider us again this year and ask another person to get involved. We want to continue to grow and we invite everyone to participate.
Coming together is our BEGINNING
Coming together is our PROGRESS
Working together is our SUCCESS
Best of luck to you all and I look forward to meeting you at an NSBA event in the coming year.

I am running Zend Studio 13.5, and would really like a wysiwyg HTML editor. I have found and followed numerous instructions to load one from "Help >> Install new software...", but I cannot locate any wysiwyg editors that way.
While Zend Studio does a great number of things exceptionally well, this is one element that would save me tons of time. I don't necessarily need any drag and drop HTML page builder (although that would be awesome), but I would love a way to easily preview the output of a straight HTML page without having to export it or upload it to a server first. My current workflow actually includes switching to Dreamweaver for HTML and mixed content PHP pages, because it just saves so much time. It would be much better, and save even more time, if I could just have a Zend Studio wysiwyg HTML editor. Not to mention allowing me to go with a cheaper license for Adobe's Creative Cloud.
Is there something I am missing? If not, are there plans to add a wysiwyg editor back to Zend Studio?

Three Random Satsangs
ShiningWorld Reader
Experiential Thinking, a Leading Error
Arnold: Dear Sundari, of course I cannot remove what I am, awareness. But my technique was useful to experience the knowledge that I was everything. My mistake was in thinking that I had "finally" discovered something new, something different than the scripture or book necessarily talked about; instead it was the truth in both that is so hard to actually explain.
Sundari: No, you cannot remove awareness, and if that is what your technique established then it took you to the right place. The fact that you thought you discovered "something new" indicates that you do not know what it means to be awareness. There is no difference between the scripture and James' book; they unfold the same truth about you, which is what Vedanta is all about.
Arnold: In my humble opinion, Vedanta should not remain a theoretical understanding but if understood provides a complete shift in perspective. As awareness, I am not just aware of everything, I am everything.
Sundari: Vedanta is not theory in practice, it is not graduate school, it is not something you can learn, it is not a bunch of concepts and it is not philosophy. It is simply a means of knowledge that reveals your true nature to be awareness. You have correctly concluded above: you, awareness, are everything and the knower of everything and if you understand that your perspective has permanently shifted from that of the apparent self to that of the self.
Now, how does this knowledge translate into your life? If the knowledge is not firm, meaning if the binding vasanas have not been rendered non-binding and the doer negated, you are tied to the Arnold-identity and not free, at least not for long.
Let me summarise what I see as the main issue: experience and knowledge. What I noticed from the beginning of your writing to me was the experiential overlay, the sense of doership and the need to "learn" Vedanta as fast as possible. This is why I was quite hard on you. You are extremely bright and very eager but this can be a danger and could be an impediment to moksa, which is being permanently free of the identification with the person called Arnold. The language you use and the methods you employ are almost entirely experiential, which is why understanding non-duality has been a struggle for you. It is also what has made it difficult to reply to your emails because Vedanta is about knowledge and uses extremely precise words. As teachers we are trained to spot ignorance by the language which is used by the inquirer. It is always a very clear indicator of what he or she knows and does not know.
For moksa, liberation, there has to be a shift from thinking experientially to thinking in terms of knowledge which is why I suggested that you read Chapter II of How to Attain Enlightenment as it supplies the logic necessary for you to make that shift. If you have not read it, please do. Or read it again if you have. This chapter has made a huge impact on the thinking of most of the people who have had the good fortune to read James' book. It is at the very heart of Vedanta and therefore non-duality.
What is most important is to extract from experience is the knowledge "I am non-dual awareness" by whatever methods one uses. However, knowledge that comes through an experience, if not fully assimilated and firm, will very likely be short-lived because the experience will end. Vedanta says that it is okay to conduct one's own experiments, providing the result, i.e. the knowledge they produce, is in harmony with scripture and is conducive to self-knowledge.
Thinking of moksa experientially is what Vedanta calls a "leading error." Even though the thinking may be faulty it still eventually takes one to the right place. The problem with uninformed thinking is that the chances are that the experience will be interpreted according to one's own ignorance, or conditioning, instead of the scripture; there is an uninformed doer involved.
A proper sadhana requires exposing the mind to scripture until you can see experience from its point of view and compare it to your personal point of view. And it requires the courage to relinquish your point of view about the meaning of experience – if it is contradicted by scripture – and accept scripture's point of view. Why? Because it is THE truth, not YOUR truth.
Arnold: It would take a very long time to go over all the details but I am happy to discuss anything in detail via phone/Skype that is desired.
Sundari: It is not me that needs to talk to you, Arnold. If you are happy with where you are and feel you have understood what it means to be awareness, there is nothing I or James needs to say to you or you to us. Just continue your sadhana and be happy. If you are really free of Arnold then you have cracked the code.
Arnold: Thank you for your thoughtful response.
Sundari: You are very welcome, Arnold.
~ Namaste, Sundari

Bugatti Type 35
Reading time: about 2 minutes.
The Bugatti Type 35 was one of the most successful racing cars of pre-WWII Europe and today it stands as one go the most successful racing cars of all time. The iconic Bugatti horseshoe grill fitted to the front of the Type 35 is the one that set the standard for all that would follow, and even almost 100 years later the 2017 Bugatti Chiron has a grill that takes direct influence from this one.
Ettore Bugatti developed the Type 35 with a new 3-valve 2-litre straight-8 with an overhead cam, the crankshaft had an unusual (for the time) 5 main bearing design that allowed it to rev reliably to 6,000 RPM and produce 90hp – an astonishing figure for the 1920s.
The on-track success of the Type 35 is now legendary, at its peak the model was winning an average of 14 race victories per week, it won over 1000 races in period, won the Targa Florio for 5 consecutive years from 1925 through till 1929, and won the Grand Prix World Championship in 1926.
Bugatti built the Type 35 between 1924 and 1930, 96 left the factory and they're now considered amongst the most collectible of the early models. The example you see here is a 1925 model that was delivered new to iconic racing driver and British submarine commander Glen Kidston.
Shortly after taking delivery Kidson drove it down to Marseilles from London where he took a 5th-place finish in the 1925 Grand Prix de Provence at Miramas Autodrome (also finishing second overall in the 2-litre class). These earlier Type 35s were stripped back as much as possible for racing – to the point that the rear vision mirror and engine driven fuel tank air pump were deleted. The theory being that the riding mechanic could operate a manual air pump and keep an eye out for ambitious competitors attempting overtaking maneuverers – although this was rarely an issue in the 35.
If you'd like to read more about this car's remarkable provenance and ownership history you can click here to visit Bonhams, it's due to be auctioned on the 13th of May with an estimated value of €1 million to 1.5 million.

This Poem, possession was written to help convey the things I experienced while in the hospital. It is a part of a poem series called the Tale of Carcinoid.
A poem by Shawn White
Through a clear plastic tube, a stream of poisonous goo dripped from my side.
When they pushed their scalpel against my flesh, it opened the barrier between life and death.
It created a spirit bound wound open to the world of the living.
The sharpened knife created a cavernous cave, a hole filled with the black flies of oblivion. They swarmed and spat, eating my breathing flesh with their vomit.
From this wound, my ego soaked doctors ate the blood caked flies from my lung, carving out and consuming the festering rat king from my chest.
Slowly I opened my eyes from this eternally dark dream. With tears streaming down my face I stared on.
I stared on at an amorphous blob as it plopped out from the darkness. Like smoldering tar it dripped from the ceiling. Its skin was slick and rigid and hard to the touch.
Spindles reminiscent to a spider's arms covered its slug like face. Dark tentacles poured from its mouth, writhing and lashing.
It looked on at me with beady black eyes. Its leeching gaze consumed me, latching hooks into my flesh, it pulled me deeply into it's bottomless pit of despair.
It hovered. It taunted me with whispers and growls. Its wings floated, swimming in the air like water.
The tips of its tendrils slid across my skin, reaching into the slice in my side. It felt like slippery sand paper driving a hot iron between my ribs. It sat on my chest, pressing into my sternum. Its weight made each breath a struggle for air.
It pressed its face against mine, holding me in place. Steadily and slowly it forced itself into my mouth. I could feel its anger, its madness, its frenzied hatred… become mine.

Actually, my life is an ongoing marathon.
And so is yours, especially if you have a child with a disability, or any type of ongoing medical or special need. As a parent of a child with Prader-Willi syndrome, I put in miles upon miles as I expend so much of my physical, emotional, and mental energy weekly, sometimes daily. The tenacious spirit, perseverance, and endurance that is required to train for and run a 26.2 mile-marathon is what is required of you and me.
I crossed the "starting line" of my marathon when I first "knew something was wrong" with my infant baby Ryan. Although your marathon and mine doesn't quite have a finish line, we do have mile markers. Our children have mile markers and so do we, and sometimes the difference between the two are completely blurred.
Some of Ryan's past mile markers were when his G-tube was removed at age 11 months, and I could give him a bottle only. No more carrying around the IV pole, tubes, and syringes, along with formula and bottled water. His lips, tongue, mouth and jaw were finally strong enough to take in the milk and baby food his low-tone body needed. Another famous mile marker was Christmas Eve, 2005, when Ryan, at age 2 ½, was able to stand up, take Chris' and my hands, and walk from the family room to the dining room. 5 seconds of pure bliss. The crowd (my family) hooted and hollered from the sidelines with tears falling out of their eyes.
Since then there have been other mile markers like Ryan recognizing his printed name, and subsequently learning to write his name. Despite how terribly he grasps a pencil, we celebrate he can write his name. Finally. And someday he will be able to actually read and fully understand the books he obsessively looks through for hours at a time.
As Ryan accomplishes his mile markers, they feel like my own. Because I was the one who was watching and waiting, teaching and coaching, hoping and praying, that with each baby step of progress, he would reach his finish line. One of a thousand finish lines yet to be crossed.
As a mother of a child with PWS, I have my own personal mile markers: 1) Getting through a day without losing my patience over Ryan's incessant questions; 2) Establishing a strong behavior program at school; 3) Resolving marital issues to maintain a close, unified relationship with Chris, despite our stress levels; 4) A proud moment when I've chosen to remain quiet and composed when I want to scream at Ryan (or any of my kids…). And for me, I too, have many finish lines yet to be crossed.
Runners feel like they are in a special universal club of runners. When we pass each other on the street during a run, we nod our heads, make eye contact, smile, say hello, wave, or any other friendly gesture. "We know in our know-ers" how incredible it feels to run, to hit the pavement, to sweat and hurt, and to accomplish mile after mile.
Well, parents of children with special needs are also in a universal club. Together. We know the heartache and the blessing. We know the triumphs and challenges. We know the hurt, sore muscles, and black toenails of our ongoing marathons. When I pass another parent with a disabled child, I always try to make eye contact and smile. They have their unique marathon and I have mine.

The writing duo behind What Does It Mean to Be an Entrepreneur? shared with us their thoughts on their motivational book for young creators.
San Francisco–based entrepreneur Rana DiOrio recorded a video from her studio, discussing the choice to write about entrepreneurship for children and her hope to empower young readers all over the world.
Native New Yorker Emma Dryden stopped by the Scholastic Reading Club offices to talk about why she believes all authors should be "author-preneurs," and how she and Rana tackled such a complex theme in a book for young readers.
In addition to writing her What Does It Mean to Be...?® series, deriving inspiration from her three little pickles and her cowboy, Rana channels her entrepreneurial spirit into March 4th, Inc. (formerly Little Pickle Press), the children's media company she founded. Follow Rana on Twitter at @ranadiorio.
A hugely successful editor who has worked with authors and illustrators on more than 1,000 books, Emma loves to pour her creativity into projects like What Does It Mean to Be an Entrepreneur?, the first picture book she herself has authored. Follow Emma on Twitter at @drydenbks.
Ken has illustrated for various commercials and animated TV shows. His illustration work has been recognized numerous times by the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). In 2012, the first picture book he illustrated, Hot, Hot Roti for Dada-ji, received the Picture Book Honor Award for Literature from the Asian Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA).

Turchin Center for the Visual Arts
Vibrant, dynamic and sometimes even challenging arts programs are part of a great university education. They also help make great communities. The Turchin Center for the Visual Arts presents exhibition, education and collection programs that support Appalachian State University's role as a key regional educational, cultural, economic and service resource. At the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts, we believe that the arts play vital roles in the development of creative and critical potential, and in experiencing, interpreting, understanding recording and shaping culture. We create an accessible place for our students and our greater community to investigate art's roles.
Programs of the center reflect the diversity of the world around us through the presentation of regional, national and international artists of significance. Interaction with the arts enriches the lives of the participants through experiences that are both educational and therapeutic, and builds an audience that recognizes the cultural and personal importance of the arts. The Turchin Center implements programs that engender and strengthen the Appalachian community's participation in and ownership of the arts, and places an emphasis on partnerships with the university's academic areas and with key local education, social service and economic agencies.

Rom.12:3 (MKJV)…But set your mind to be right-minded, even as God has dealt to every man to every man a measure of faith.
Today's message is a reminder that God did not create anyone empty. Contrarily, He has deposited a seed of destiny in every man. Therefore, though the search for significance is vast, the answer is within our reach and might very well be right under our skins!
However, the key to greatness peculiar to us is for our discovery.
Furthermore, once uncovered, whether the seed will germinate, blossom and yield to our profit and the benefit of others depends on how well we nurture and cultivate our gardens.
The word of God mentioned in Psalms 33:15 that all men are equal potentially.
The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works. Ps.33:13-15 (KJV) .
Therefore, irrelevance in life is not a function of how disadvantaged we are by what we do not have, but of our ignorance ornegligence of what we DO have!
Failure stems from our refusal to refine the treasures God has endowed us with or to cultivate the gardens where He has planted us to the point of blooming there!
God has given to every man a measure of His gift: be it a talent, some special attributes like physical strength or beauty; or some rare privileges and opportunities for instance, a solid family background, good education, strong connections etc. Therefore, whatever will take you to limelight is something you already have right now- something within your reach which God can command His blessing.
Therefore, the question once again is: Connections, good relationships, an inheritance, a good education; favour and goodwill, a good personality, good friends : What do you have?
Thank You Lord that I wasn't born poor: You have endowed me with something good, which has the propensity to translate to success if acknowledged and maximized.
Please help me to discover and afterwards focus on the good thing You've endowed me with, and to maximise them to the point where they bring me from obscurity to limelight. Amen.

Listening to jazz and a woman's clear voice belting out, "Breakin' rocks on the chain gang…I still have so far to go…I'm goin' a break this chain off and run…"
Running Dialogue with My Journal, August 31st, 2008.
Food is becoming a political volleyball. Organics are rising in popularity by 16% – 20% every year. The "system," dependent on sprays and chemicals, is fearing a systematic loss of revenue.
Articles "slamming" organics as "unethical" and "privileged" are leaking into the media. Now the detractors are using an argument based on organic and sustainable farming taking up 20% – 45% too much land. Land that could produce higher yields with engineered foods.
A quarter of a century of eating organically and our family is fit and fine and doctor-free.
Is it possible we don't have to super-size our crops if we can teach the mainstream not to overeat; obesity is one of our main problems: a direct link to chronic illness.
Maybe there would be more space to farm if:
- farmland wasn't being sold to high density development
- yards were still part of our homes and we could have gardens and fruit trees
- if beef wasn't consumed
When we eat organically we consume small portions because the color, taste and texture of organically produced foods is so rich and satisfying. We stay healthy and slimmer. We stop draining the dollars out of the national budget for medical treatment.
Nature is natural; science is costly.
I break for Yoga Class where our teacher, Corrie, reads a passage on compassion and it confirms that you even have to have some for yourself.
I would feel so liberated if I could drop my concerns over every environmental and political prod. The papers are so full of man-made problems it's disgusting – see, there I go again: my head filled up. We live in Utopia (there's no visible guns). We have everything to be thankful for yet nothing is ever enough.

Source: Digger Tracts, 1649-50, published by John the Red Nose, Seattle?, 1996
(Copy provided by Mikke Sennekke and Richard Schneider)
To his Excellency the Lord Fairfax and the Council of War the brotherly request of those that are called Diggers showeth
That whereas we have begun to dig upon the Commons for a livelihood, and have declared to your Excellency and the whole world our reasons, which are four. First, from the righteous law of Creation that gives the earth freely to one as well as to another without respect of persons. Secondly, by virtue of yours and our victory over the King, whereby the enslaved people of England have recovered themselves from under the Norman Conquest; though we doe not as yet enjoy the benefit of our victories, nor cannot so long as the use of the common land is held from the younger brethren by the Lords of Manors, that as yet sit in the Norman chair, and uphold that tyranny as if the kingly power were in force still; and a third reason that moved us to dig was the persuasion of our hearts that the Parliament and Army would make good their bargain with us; for you promised that if we would adventure person and purse to recover England from under that Norman oppression you would make us a free people, and you have obtained the victory by your own and our assistance, and there is nothing wanting from you to us but maiming good your bargain to us, for by the law of reason and contract we have bought our freedom of the Parliament and Army, who have the power of the sword in your hands, by our blood, taxes, and free quarter. And we are persuaded of your faithfulness to us for two reasons. First, your promises, which as you are Gospel professors we expect you will make good, and so give us our freedom, which we have dearly paid for, and you have received our moneys the fruits of our labours. Secondly, your Covenant to God, unto whom first we kept fasting days, and prayed him to help and deliver this oppressed Nation, and then after any victory over our oppressor Charles you appointed days of thanks-giving unto God. Now in the third place, God expects from you and the Parliament to perform your Covenant in deed and work as well as in words, and let the oppressed go free unto whom you promised freedom; and though you have fought for it, yet we have paid for it, and so have purchased that same freedom with you, that is that we may live in the earth without poverty; for (fourthly) we dig upon the Common to make the earth a common treasury, because our necessity for food and raiment require it.
Now Sirs, divers repulses we have had from some of the Lords of Manors and their servants, with whom we are patient and loving, not doubting but at last they will grant liberty quietly to live by them; and though your tenderness have moved us to bee requesting your protection against them, yet we have forborne, and rather waited upon God with patience till he quell their unruly spirits, and of prosecuting Sauls to make them righteous Pauls; and in regard likewise the soldiers did not molest us, for that you told us when some of us were before you, that you had given command to your soldiers not to meddle with us, but resolved to leave us to the Gentlemen of the Country and to the law of the Land to deal with us; which we were satisfied with, and for this half year past your soldiers have not meddled with us.
But now Sirs, this last week upon the 28th of November, there came a party of soldiers commanded by a cornet, and some of them of your own Regiment, and by their threatening words forced 3 labouring men to help them to pull down our 2 houses, and carried away the wood in a cart to a Gentleman's house who hath been a Cavalier all our time of wars, and cast 2 or 3 old people out who lived in those houses to lie in an open field this cold weather, (an action more becoming the Turks to deal with Christians then for one Christian to deal with another); but if you inquire into the business you will find that the Gentlemen that set the soldiers on are enemies to you, for some of the chief had hands in the Kentish rising against the Parliament, and we know, an[d] you will find it true if you trust them so far, that [they] love you but from the teeth outward.
Therefore our request to you is this, that you would call your soldiers to accompt for attempting to abuse us without your commission, that the Country may know that you had no hand in such an unrighteous and cruel act. Likewise we desire that you would continue your former kindness and promise to give commission to your soldiers not to meddle with us without your order, and we shall be very thankful to you and remain
Yours and England['s] true born sons and friends.
in the behalf of others called the Diggers.

Danby Castle Wedding Photography Yorkshire
Emma and Paul held their wedding at Danby Castle, a unique venue located on the North Yorkshire Moors, not too far from Whitby. I love being the photographer at weddings at this special venue; the staff make an exceptional effort to ensure the smooth running of the day and the grounds, building and location provide lots of opportunities for interesting wedding photography.
There are several holiday cottages in the surrounding area that offer accommodation for the bridal party and any friends and family that want to stay close by – Danby Castle also offers grounds for camping too and is customisable in so many ways, consequently its a very popular place so would recommend getting in touch with them to discuss your wedding day sooner rather than later.
I started the day photographing Emma and her bridal party's preparations at one of the local cottages and then headed up to the castle in time to capture Emma's arrival. Despite a bit of wind and rain, the castle is always warm and cosy which makes it the perfect place to host an intimate ceremony with your closest friends and family. Afterwards we did some family groups shots in the ceremony room before everyone sat down for the wedding breakfast and the speeches, which all happens in the marquee, which is attached to the dance floor and conveniently close to the bar.
In the evening we made a few portraits around the venue and its grounds before the night do commenced with the first dance, which is where I left everyone dancing the night away. Danby Castle has its own lighting, DJ and a stage for live music, so all evening entertainment is taken care of too.

However, we can't deny the fact that creating a research paper on this subject is not exactly a piece of cake. It can be done, but it will require plenty of research, not to mention a lot of writing and editing. There are, luckily, some essential things that can make the difference between a mediocre and an excellent paper:

It was earlier reported that Samsung was facing issues in manufacturing the dual-edge curved screen for the Galaxy S6 edge, leading to lower production. Now, it is being rumoured that the supplier tasked with producing curved glass for Samsung is struggling with less than 50 percent yield, forcing Samsung to look out for a new curved glass supplier.
The Korean smartphone giant originally expected the supply of around 8 – 8.5 million curved glasses for the second quarter of 2015, but at the current yield, it might get around just 6 million units. The process to manufacture curved glasses is quite complex, as it needs high-end machinery, which can twist the glass symmetrically after heating it to 800 degrees celsius. This is the reason why the lesser units of the Galaxy S6 edge will be available, and priced higher than the Galaxy S6 at the same time. Samsung is expected to build around 4 million units of the Galaxy S6 edge by the end of April, and put it up for pre-order at the start of the same month.

I'm a massive fan of The Hoxton (Hotel). I've been a full-on convert since I used to do all my meetings there about 7 years ago- it had cocktails and comfy sofas and my office didn't. They have supported me with WJ London events and more and I am always impressed by their roster of events not to mention the hotel and brand as a whole.
That's why, even though I've already done a marathon runner round up this marathon-relevant event needs it's own post.
The Hoxton are teaming up with lululemon to put on the Marathon Shakeout Event, taking place this Saturday (21st April).
As with almost all of The Hox's events, it's completely free to attend. Guests and those setting out on the ambitious 26-mile slog can drop by to get their hair braided by Blue Tit (free), have a sports massage from Recovery Massage Therapy (free), and join us at one of the 3 sessions, covering pre-race nerves and more.

Gloucestershire Country Walk – The Cotswolds – Miserden to Caudle Green and Brimpsfield round
Gloucestershire is a county in South West England split into three areas, the major part of the Cotswold Hills, part of the flat fertile valley of the River Severn and the entire Forest of Dean. It borders with the counties of Gwent in Wales to the west, Herefordshire to the northwest, Worcestershire to the north Warwickshire to the northeast, Oxfordshire to the east, Wiltshire to the south and Bristol and Somerset to the southwest. Gloucestershire's county town and only city is Gloucester and has 32 towns. The charming Cotswolds villages and towns and quaint cottages and buildings gained much of their character from the yellow limestone that was quarried locally. The area was once entirely dependent on sheep farming and many of the fine churches and manor houses owe their existence to the generosity of the wealthy medieval yeoman farmers and wool merchants. The valley of Britain's longest river, the River Severn, is flat with lush meadows along its banks and is famous for its tidal bore. The views across the River Severn are outstanding and its estuary is a haven for wildfowl and wading birds. The Royal Forest of Dean sits between the Wye Valley, the Vale of Leadon and the Severn Valley and is one of England's few remaining ancient forests. Covering 27,000 acres it was designated as a National Park in 1938. Full of magic and mystery the forest has been the inspiration for many great artists and writers including JRR Tolkien and JK Rowling.
The Cotswolds are a range of hills covering an area of 25 miles across and 90 miles long and lie mainly within the counties of Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire but extend into parts of Wiltshire, Somerset, Worcestershire and Warwickshire. The spine of the Cotswolds runs southwest to northeast through the six counties particularly Gloucestershire, west Oxfordshire and south western Warwickshire. The Cotswolds have been designated as the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is the largest AONB in England and Wales. The northern and western edges of the Cotswolds are marked by steep escarpments down to the Severn Valley and the Warwickshire Avon and this escarpment is often called the Cotswolds Edge. On the eastern boundary lies the city of Oxford and on the west is Stroud. To the southeast the upper reaches of the Thames Valley and towns such as Lechlade, Tetbury and Fairford mark the limit of this region and to the south the boundary reaches beyond Bath and towns such as Chipping Sodbury and Marshfield. The Cotswolds are characterised by attractive small towns and villages built of the underlying Cotswold stone, a yellow limestone, and drystone walls many built in the 18th and 19th centuries can be seen everywhere in the fields. The most well known towns or villages are Bourton-on-the-Water, Broadway, Burford, Chipping Norton, Cirencester, Moreton-in-Marsh, Northleach, Stow-on-the-Wold, Stroud and Winchcombe. During the 13th – 15th centuries the native Cotswold sheep were famous throughout Europe for their heavy fleeces and high quality of wool. Cotswold wool came at a high price and the wealth generated by the wool trade enabled wealthy traders to leave their mark by building fine houses and beautiful churches, known as "wool churches". Today the sight of the sheep on the hillside is still one of the most common features of the Cotswolds. Worcestershire is a county steeped in history and boasts miles of The Great Outdoors across rolling countryside and winding waterways. It is a county of arts and culture as well as having many historic houses, museums, country house gardens, two arboreta and Britain's premier steam railway.
Miserden a lovely village located 4 miles east of Stroud and also close to Gloucester, Cirencester and Cheltenham, lies in the Cotswolds at 800 feet above the valley of the River Frome. The village consists of attractive stone cottages, the majority with Cotswolds stone roofs, St Andrews Church, a village hall, a Primary School, a Post Office and Shop and a pub, the Carpenters Arms. Miserden Castle was built in the 12th century by Robert Musard and was used in the battle and siege scenes in "Brother Cadfael's Penance by Ellis Peters. Miserden Estate which covers almost 3,000 acres and includes the majority of the village of Miserden has been owned by the Wills family since 1913. The estate has a history going back many hundreds of years and the 17th century Manor House at the heart of the estate stands high overlooking the beautiful valley. Miserden Park Gardens also set high above the valley is an unspoilt garden with wonderful views across the former deer park to extensive woodland beyond. It was created in the 17th century and still retains a wonderful sense of peace and tranquillity. The gardens of Miserden Park are open to the public from April to October and Miserden Nursery is open from March to October.
The Carpenters Arms, originally a carpenters shop, is a traditional 17th century Cotswolds pub. It became a pub about 100 years ago and still retains a 5 foot ingle look open fire place, oak beams and pictures of Miserden on the walls. The village and the pub were recently used as a film set for the new production of Lauree Lee's "A Cider with Rosie" which was shown on the BBC in September 2015. The pub was chosen for its traditional and unspoilt looks. Laurie Lee's successful autobiographical novel "Cider with Rosie" in 1959 allowed him to become a full time independent writer. The novel is an account of his childhood in the village of Slad in the period soon after the First World War. In 1960 Laurie Lee returned to Slad, the much loved village of his childhood, with his wife after buying a cottage with the proceeds of the novel. He wrote two more follow up novels "As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning" in 1969 and "A Moment of War" in 1991. He remained in Slad until he died in May 1997 at the age of 82 and is buried in the Holy Trinity Churchyard. "Cider with Rosie" continues to be one of the UK's most popular books and is often used as a set English literature text for school children. Laurie Lee's first love was always poetry but was only moderately successful as a poet. His first poem appeared in the Sunday Referee in 1934.
Caudle Green and Brimpsfield are two very small attractive villages the latter housing the Church of St Michaels with lovely views and the site of an old castle.
The Walk
From the school we walk along the road past the shop to the shelter with the pub on the right. We turn left taking the no through road to the Nursery Gardens. We bear left through the gate and follow the tarmac track as it winds downhill. At the bottom we go through a gate and cross over a stream then start going uphill. When the track bends to the left we keep heading forward following the yellow arrow with the fence on our right to enter the wood by a gate. After a short way we turn left onto a tarmac track and soon cross a footbridge next to a ford. We head forwards then at a t-junction we turn left heading into the wood. When we reach a junction of paths we turn right and keep right steeply uphill. When the path splits we bear right following the yellow arrow. When we come to a wall and Calley Wood sign we cross over the stone stile in the wall, or you can go round it, into a field. We head forwards along the edge of the field with the wood on our right. At the corner we follow the yellow arrow bearing half left across the field. At the end of the hedge we turn left and head across the next field to Caudle Green. At the road we turn right through the village heading downhill past the telephone box and when the road splits we bear left downhill. We soon come to a y-junction, signposted Brimpsfield and Birdlip, we head forward following the road as it bends to the right. After about 100 yards we turn right onto a tarmac track. We pass a house on our left go over a stile, pass through a gate and bear left. We head forward along the little valley with the stream on our left. We cross over the stream and continue forwards in the valley bottom keeping the stream on our right. We go through a gate then turn right at the track, cross over the stream and bear left onto the track the stream is now on our left. When the track bends right we head straight forward still following the stream. We go through a gate and follow the yellow arrow bearing left. We head forward through a gate and continue forward following the yellow arrow until we come to some ponds on our right. After passing the first pond we turn right to cross over a footbridge. We bear left following the fence line and in the next field we go through a gate and keep heading forward downhill. We come out at a track which soon bears left we cross over the stream and turn right to follow a narrow path following the stream on our right. When the path bears left and starts to climb steeply we turn right keeping the stream on our right. After we've turned right we see the yellow arrow on a tree. When we come to a tree house we turn left away from the stream. We come to a track and some buildings we turn right and soon drop off the track following the yellow arrow. We come out at the road and turn left. We follow the road round the left hand bend then as it bends slightly to the right we turn left at the footpath sign. We cross the field then turn left into the churchyard for a look around and stop for a cup of tea. We then head back out the churchyard and turn left towards Brimpsfield village. Soon after passing a telephone box and a seat we turn right along the back road signposted The Knapp. We head forwards then take the footpath slightly to the right between the wall and the building. We head forwards cross over a track and keep heading forward on the bridleway with the Polo Club on our left. At the end of the Polo field we head forwards over the stile into the field. We continue forward into the wood come out into a field and back into the wood again. We keep heading forwards over a stile then bear slightly left. At the next gate we go through and cross straight over the road to continue on the bridleway. The bridleway soon forks and we turn left following the blue arrow. We keep following the track with the stream on our right through the valley bottom passing a footbridge on our right until we come to a gate. We go through the gate and turn immediate right. We follow the track still with the stream on our right. When we come to a pond on our right and the bridleway goes off to the right we head forward then bear left uphill at the fork and blue arrow. We start to go away from the stream now heading quite steeply uphill. At the top the path bears left but we keep heading forwards at the blue arrow and a sign saying Morecombe. We head forward with the wall on our right and the field on our left towards the trees in front of us. At the trees we turn right over the stone stile we cross near the begging of the walk. We retrace our steps down hill through the wood to the crossroads. We cross straight over heading downhill, cross over a stream and up the other side to pick up the track we started on. We now retrace our steps back to Miserden.

Volunteer events
Often if you run a large event it's helpful to have a system to collate event helpers and volunteeers. A simple way of doing this is to create a separate event which helpers can sign up for (and perhaps indicate what kind of help they can offer).
We've added a special 'volunteers' event type for these events. You can use all the normal event features, but volunteer events won't show up in the calendar or event search.
You can just change any existing events to 'volunteer' events (or create a new event with this type):
You can also get a special link with all your volunteer events so people can sign up for one (or more) in one go, from the Account Dashboard screen:
Incidentally, if you have several volunteer events you might also want to create a 'group' for all your regular helpers, so you can keep in touch with them over and above helping out at a particular event (you can link this to your 'volunteer' event entries so people join the group when they volunteer for the first time). Get in touch if you need any help with this.

by Kevin Thorpe, Global Chief Economist
Missed Part 1 and Part 2? Click here and here to read.
A look at the up and down sides of overbuilding, the industrial explosion, retail disruptions, and the continuing powerful potential of eCommerce growth.
Global Office Glut
Right now, there is over 700 million square feet of office space under construction in the world – an intimidating amount by any measure. Aggregate supply will exceed demand, so from that perspective, the world is absolutely unequivocally overbuilding.
There are a handful of markets in the U.S. that have a lot of new space under construction: Brooklyn, Austin, San Francisco, Nashville, Seattle, Denver, New York Midtown, Raleigh, and San Jose are most at risk.
At the same time, we know that tenants generally prefer new, high-quality office space, so you could argue that the world is finally upgrading its office inventory to give tenants what they really want.
But this massive wave of supply is going to create some pain. On both ends of the spectrum – premium and low-end – demand should remain pretty consistent. Those in the middle, however, are more likely to struggle. We see B+ and A- buildings as having a tough time over the next few years as they work to compete with new space.
Retail Reels While Industrial Booms
eCommerce is a phenomenon that's changed, well, almost everything. When you consider that there are two billion or so millennials in the world, ages 20-35, who will soon be hitting their prime spending years, and that smartphone adoption still has a lot of room to grow globally, it's safe to conclude that the furious pace of eCommerce growth is far from over.
This seismic change is clearly wreaking havoc on parts of the retail sector. We estimate there will be more than 10,000 store closures this year in the U.S. alone—which translates into approximately 27 store closures every single day. And, next year, it's only going to get worse with about 12,000 stores expected to close.
But the lesser told story is that certain sectors in retail are actually thriving.
Food-centric retail, restaurants and bars, health and fitness, and experiential retail are just some examples. Basically, anything in retail that can't be purchased from behind a computer is doing well. Meanwhile, many retail properties located mostly in the suburbs are facing obsolescence, unless they are repurposed to meet changing needs.
Then, there's the industrial side. Just as eCommerce is stealing demand from retail real estate, it's also fueling record industrial growth. Industrial is on fire with absorption hitting levels we've never seen before. Industrial vacancy is at record lows and we're seeing stunning rent growth in numerous cities.
The sector is also benefitting from an increasingly confident and wealthy consumer. Demand is stronger in multiple areas including food, housing, clothes, and electronics.
So, in conclusion, yes, there are always the unknowns that can destabilize any economy, but when you weigh the data and the trends, we remain optimistic that this cycle is far from over—and that there remains plenty of opportunities for the discerning investor. As I said in Part 2: Think of where we are as the end of the easy times, not the end of the good times.

Vermont's reputation for prim Yankee propriety extends to its state government, traditionally one of the cleanest in the country. But a blot has formed on the pristine Green Mountain State record, in, of all places, its supreme court. Last month Vermont's judicial-conduct board accused three of five high-court justices -- Thomas Hayes, 60, William Hill, 69, and Ernest Gibson III, 59 -- of numerous violations of judicial ethics growing out of their allegedly improper efforts to help a lower-court colleague under investigation. Charges against a majority of a supreme court are hardly everyday occurrences, and the move has given taciturn Vermonters...

Need a break away from everyday life? Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay has you sorted. Here are seven reasons to fly there now.
Wake up to the sound of the sea
Every one of the 250 beautiful rooms – including over-water villas – at the Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay boast water views, so you can wake up to those mystical blues every morning of your stay.
Eat yourself a feast
There are five restaurants at the resort. Try traditional Fijian cuisine at Goji Kitchen & Bar; dive into local seafood at Fish Bar; drink cocktails and Mediterranean eats at Lagoon House & Bar and Lagoon Lounge; or keep things casual at Fiji Baking Company, where you can feast on pastries, drink your daily coffee, or just stop in for a sandwich.
Go for a dip
The crystal-clear waters of the South Pacific are right there, but the Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay also features no less than three swimming pools: a kids' pool to keep the little ones happy; a main pool replete with swim-up bar; and an adults-only infinity pool.
Relax in the spa
Whatever your way to relax, Quan Spa will see you right. Feel like a soothing massage? No problem. What about a full body scrub, to get that skin as smooth as it can be? Consider it done. A couple's massage? Of course! They even do manicures, pedicures and waxing to get you holiday-ready.
Play on the water
If swimming just isn't enough of an adrenaline rush, then head out on the water on a stand-up paddleboard, kayak or boat. You can even set off on a jet ski safari, or see the sights while parasailing, should a day of adventure be just the thing. And you can admire the colourful marine life here by heading on out on a snorkelling or scuba diving tour.
Practice your serve
Feel like a game of tennis? The resort boasts two tennis courts, so there's no excuse not to pop on those whites and get in a game or two. And did we mention the 24-hour gym?
Give the kids a day they'll never forget
There is a Turtles Kids' Club at the resort, free of charge to guests. And if you need a babysitter for a romantic meal one night, for a small fee, staff are on hand for just that reason.

Apple Retailer Gift Playing cards Easy to give. Gift card nnoun: Refers to particular person, place, thing, high quality, etc. But you know, sometimes receiving one thing what turns us (girls) off is healthier than not receiving in any respect on birthdays or anniversaries. Benefit from the time together with your mother-in-legislation and your family.
Money is nice; a gift certificates to a grocery store, Wal-Mart, or Goal is okay too. The proper gifts cater to individual pursuits, so we offer a variety of personalized gifts you can customize to express heartfelt sentiments at any time of the 12 months. Generally, surprisingly, people you care about are actually embarrassed or insulted whenever you give them money for their birthday.
A well-off good friend of the family would possibly give a much less-private however beneficiant current corresponding to a large gift card to spend on diapers, whereas an underemployed good friend might determine to crochet a baby blanket by hand to make a special gift.
Listed here are some improbable ideas for Valentine's Day Gifts for newlyweds. Last more- Contemporary flowers might solely last a few days and starts to wither, the petals dried up and fall off. The joy of receiving handmade Paper Rose Flowers by your receipient is a feeling that money can not buy.
Lover loves chocolate gift. Denny's Gift Playing cards are the proper gift for any event. Individuals like gifts that a personally made for them. Here some romantic, distinctive, and funny that means of gifts, by instance that gift is from a man to a ladies. Provide not legitimate on the acquisition of donations, charity objects, all swimwear, buy of gift cards, for changes of prior purchases, last sale gadgets, taxes, or delivery.
Hindus give Diwali and Pongal gifts to family and buddies. The Basic Blue Walmart Gift Card makes an exquisite choice for family and mates because it lets them pick out precisely what they need. I love the concept of bringing something particularly meals for the entire group, since you may not know what contribution every particular person makes individually if you find yourself not around.

I always say to everyone that the best way to maintain your jewelry is to wear them as ofter as possible.
On the contrary, be sure to store your jewelry in a dry place away from the air, preferably in the casket or suede home to prevent them from scratch in contact with other jewelry.
The silver jewelry can indeed darken or turn yellow as a result of oxidation air and contact with other metals. In this case, use cleaning products that we offer on our site to give them back their original luster.
