text: Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce Jump to Recipe Leave a Review DF GF H NF PinShareTweetThis Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce recipe is made easy in your crockpot. It makes a thick and hearty sauce that freezes well. You can choose to make it with ground beef, sausage or leave out the meat and make it vegetarian! I love this spaghetti sauce and for good reason. You see to make a good homemade spaghetti sauce it needs to simmer, but for a really long time. Well, I don't have the patience to stand there and stir it every so often. I have tried making it on the stove top and it just doesn't work for me. I don't know why, but I usually scorch the sauce. I know, right?!?! How does a person burn spaghetti sauce. I have it turned as low as it can go too. I just get distracted with other things and forget all about it until I smell it burning. (I also think I need to see if I can somehow adjust my stove so it can simmer a little lower) So, my solution was my trusty old crockpot. I don't know where I would be without that thing sometimes. The only hands on part is browning the meat (and putting the ingredients into the slow cooker). There are a few different ways you can make this spaghetti sauce as well! I like to do a combination of ground beef and Italian sausage. But you can leave the meat out entirely if you like or stick with just one kind. This also makes a large batch and freezes really well, which is awesome. Make it once and have it ready to go for several meals depending on how big your family is. Just portion out the sauce in containers or freezer bags then freeze. Take one out before you go to work in the morning and you'll be ready to go! You can even use this slow cooker spaghetti sauce in any of your pasta dishes too! Print Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce Prep Time 10 mins Cook Time 8 hrs Total Time 8 hrs 10 mins Course: Sauce Author: Countryside Cravings Ingredients 1 pound lean ground beef 1/2 cup white wine to deglaze pan optional (may also use beef broth) 2 28 oz cans crushed tomatoes 1 small onion chopped 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon dried basil 2 teaspoons dried oregano 2 teaspoons dried parsley 2 teaspoons garlic powder 1 teaspoon salt or to taste Instructions In a large skillet brown the ground beef until no longer pink. Drain any excess grease and deglaze pan with white wine or may use beef broth. Spoon into slow cooker along with all other ingredients. Stir and cover. Cook on low for 8 hours. Recipe Notes You may use ground beef, Italian sausage or a combination of the two. Or you may leave it out. We have tried it all three ways and they are all really good but our favorite is the combination of ground beef and sausage. To freeze: portion out the cooled sauce into freezer safe containers or freezer bags. Also, if you want to skip the browning of the ground beef just add it uncooked to the slow cooker and break it up into smallish chunks. Stir in the remaining ingredients and cook as usual.

Last Sunday we headed out on one of our favourite weekend activities: flea market shopping! I just love exploring these markets and get a real kick out of finding great bargains and treasures from other people's junk.
We set off bright and early that morning so we could catch all the good bargains. It was only after we arrived there that we realised that we had forgotten to bring Nathan's stroller! So we ended up taking turns carrying him and letting him toddle around a bit whenever we stopped at a stall.
The weather was getting pretty hot and Nathan was starting to get tired. Thankfully I keep a spare pouch sling in the car, so we got it out and I slung Nathan on against my hip so we could continue exploring the market.
The sling certainly made the job of carrying him a little easier. Still, carrying a 12kg toddler is no walk in the park. But as he leaned his tired head against my shoulder and snuggled against me to get more comfortable, it brought back memories of my babywearing days with him as a baby.
As much as I love my toddler to bits and enjoy the fact that he's growing more and more independent, there are moments when I look wistfully back on his baby days and reflect on some of my favourite things during that stage of his life that I miss now – one of which is of course Babywearing.
Here are the Top 7 things I miss most about Babywearing
The Convenience
Being able to be freed-up to do other things while bubby watches contentedly whist perched on my back/hip/chest. People always ask me how I was able to be so productive at home with a baby… and my answer? Babywearing!
The ease of mobility
Being able to easily pop bub on quickly while out and about instead of fiddling with the stroller for short errands. At parties and gatherings, I was always the mum with the funky carrier, munching away at food and moving about chatting to people.
Having a consistent place of comfort
No matter where I was, I could always count on my sling/carrier as a sure-fire method of calming baby if he's tired or fussy. When people see baby sleeping peacefully in the sling they will often remark "Your baby is sooo good! How did you manage to do that?" And my answer again is: Babywearing!
The trendy fashion statement
I don't deny it, my sling/carrier is intended to double up as a fashion accessory. Motherhood is the big trend now. And nothing beats wearing funky or beautiful sling/carrier to make a big trendy motherhood statement. I wear my baby proudly!
The hot daddy babywearer
I confess, one of the sexiest things to me is seeing a great looking dad out and about donning a baby in a carrier. I always loved the look of my man in babywearing mode.
Treasuring the little-ness of baby
When I look at photos of me 'wearing' my baby boy, it always makes me look back wistfully on how tiny he used to be. My boy will never be a little baby again and I'll always miss the 'littleness' of how he was during my early babywearing days.
The close physical intimacy with baby
As tough as it sometimes felt during times when baby just constantly wanted to be carried or held, I realise now that it was such a brief period of his whole life. I will always treasure that stage of constant close physical intimacy and baby snuggles.
Babywearing was definitely a key tool that enabled me to stay mobile, active and productive, especially during the early stage of constant breastfeeding and carrying baby. And it allowed me to enjoy this great privilege as a mother to be a place of comfort and safety for my little one.

Celebrity Appearances Include Vanessa Williams, Rachel Dratch And Kandi Burruss
NEW YORK – November 1, 2011 – Bravo serves up a new slice of culinary drama with "Chef Roblé & Co." as Roblé Ali risks it all to cater the biggest events New York City has to offer, premiering on Sunday, December 4 at 10pm ET/PT. Chef Roblé Ali has cooked for everyone from red carpet rock stars to award-winning actors, but nothing has prepared him for the stresses and strains of setting up his own high-end catering company. From a doggie wedding in the Hamptons to a Bollywood inspired birthday party, this series follows Roblé and his team as they create world-class cuisine and produce jaw-dropping events for a range of top name clients and celebrities including Rachel Dratch and Kandi Burruss from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." For more information, visit http://www.BravoTV.com and follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/BravoPR.
In the premiere episode, Chef Roblé meets his first client- a glamorous New York socialite who wants a creepy, carnival themed birthday party. Roblé wonders whether he's bitten off more than he can chew after finding out she has a list of demands such as a live monkey and only being allowed to serve red, white and black foods. Roblé is joined by his older sister Jasmine, who has relocated from Atlanta to help him start his business. Other members of the catering team include Artie and Shawn who handle the front of house and Adam, Ché, Kikuyo and D'Andre in the kitchen.
Chef Roblé Ali was always fascinated with food and cooking. He showed talent in the kitchen at a young age after learning from his grandfather, Jesse Harris, who was a professional chef. At 15, Roblé began working in his first professional kitchen and continued to develop as a chef throughout his high school years. Upon graduation, he enrolled at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York where he broadened his knowledge of food.
After quickly being identified as one of the hottest up-and-coming chefs, Roblé worked through the ranks as the youngest sous chef ever at Abigail Kirsch, an elite New York catering company. He worked side by side with Chef Chris Santos as Chef de Cuisine of Restaurant Mojo and on the opening of Stanton Social. In addition, Roblé was hired by nightlife mogul, Noah Tepperberg, to be the executive chef and design the menu at Avenue, a popular gastro-lounge in New York City. Adding to his already impressive resume, Roblé has catered for celebrities including Michael Jackson, President Clinton, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Bono, Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga and Jay-Z to name a few.
"Chef Roblé & Co." is produced by Red Line Films for Bravo. Al Szyamanski, Peter Franchella, Aaron Rothman and Toby Faulkner serve as executive producers.
Bravo is a program service of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment, a division of NBCUniversal, one of the world's leading media and entertainment companies in the development, production, and marketing of entertainment, news, and information to a global audience. Bravo has been an NBCUniversal cable network since December 2002 and was the first television service dedicated to film and the performing arts when it launched in December 1980.

When you get done here stop by and read this new, updated article: Which New 2018 John Deere E100 Series Lawn Tractor Is Right For Me?
Here is the 2011 John Deere 48 in 22 HP Riding Mower Model D140. This tractor sports a new hood and a free 10-point delivery inspection by certified John Deere technician. This new inspection program insures your new mower was assembled properly at the factory and the mower is ready to mow. Be assured this new mower is ready to run! This riding mower is sized for your medium sized suburban lawn.
It's Not The Best Lawn Tractor….It's The Best Lawn Tractor For You!
My Rating of this John Deere Riding Lawn Mower:
My Value/Cost Rating: Yard Tractor, Mows Lawn Well, Mulches. Great for 3/4 to 2 Acre Lawns, Light/Medium Hauling, Snow Removal. Accepts Medium Duty Attachments & Bagger.
Type: Yard Tractor.
Engine Type: Good. Full Pressure Lube.
Transmission Type: Hydrostatic. Listed as Automatic but is actually an automatic.
Speed Control: Pedal (Foot) Infinite
Accepts Medium Duty Attachments:
My Review:
Priced at about $300 more than the highly comparable YT 4000 Craftsman and the LTX 1050 KW Cub Cadet, this John Deere lawn tractor is a great mower for medium sized normal suburban yard. This model features the new John Deere hood design, step through operator's platform, full pressure lube engine with oil filter, and a 48 inch deck.
The D140 has the foot control hydrostatic transmission. This transmission is easy to use and will perform well for mowing and medium duty yard tasks.
If you want a mower that will mow 3/4 to 2 acres well, handle a snow blower, and all the non-ground engaging attachments this is a great choice for you. This tractor is heavy enough to handle gently sloping and smooth lawns. There are other mowers that will mow faster, or pull more, but this is a great all around mowing machine.
I think this machine does represent a good value, but like most Deere's it is overpriced in today's retail market. This is John Deere's economy line and this model does use The John Deere motor (the dealer version uses a Briggs & Stratton motor) If you take care of of the lawn tractor properly it will last you a long time. My neighbor is very happy with his two year old 140.
This yard tractor is capable of using all the non-ground engaging attachments John Deere offers including a snow blade and snowblower.
Craftsman really up'd the ante this year with the introduction of the Turn Tight on their YT 3000, YT 4000 and GT6000 series mowers. The new Craftsman's 8 inch turning radius is so much better than Deere's 18 inch turning radius that it would be hard for me to go buy the Deere. The D140 John Deere has a great reputation among owners and is a good choice if you want "green" on your lawn.
The D140 is heavy enough if you want to attach a snowblower. You will be glad you bought larger twin cylinder engine for snow throwing.
Final Thoughts:
John Deere is a great company and they are one of the largest manufactures of farm equipment in the world. They have had a great reputation for good quality lawn tractors. The dealer network is good, though mainly located in rural areas. If you buy one from Home Depot be sure you understand the service options available including extended warranties and local service options. If you end up buying a Deere from them and then finding out that you have to haul your lawn tractor 40 miles to get it serviced or repaired …. the John Deere D140 may not be the best choice for you.
There are very few negatives with this mower as long as you understand that it is a good quality mid-sized mower designed to mow your suburban lawn. Take care of it (do the normal maintenance all lawn mowers need) and it will last you a long time. I like this lawn mower for what it is designed for.
Product Description
The John Deere 48 in. 22 HP Hydrostatic Front-Engine Riding Mower features a V-twin engine with overhead valve design for powerful performance and yet efficient fuel economy. Hydrostatic automatic transmission and 2 foot control pedals allow you to set your own pace while moving forward and reverse. The Edge Cutting System (deck) offers a smooth underside to prevent grass buildup, and the deep deck design lifts grass for a better cut.
- 22 HP, V-twin engine offers powerful performance

- MFG Brand Name : John Deere
- MFG Model # : D140 BG20544
- MFG Part # : D140 BG20544

Extended Warranty:
I am having difficulty establishing just what extended warranties are available for this tractor through Home Depot. I went through the check out process but at no time could I find the option to get an extended warranty.
John Deere does offer a plan that extends the normal 2 year warranty by one or two years (defects, not wear & tear.) Their best maintenance plan is not offered on this mower.

Kyoto Station
[Philosopher's Walk]
See philosophy in a fantastical shower of hazy blossoms!?
This footpath gets its name because an influential philosopher used to walk along it, lost in contemplation. About 400 sakura trees blossom along the approximately 1.5 km walk which follows the Lake Biwa Canal from Nyakuoji Bridge to Ginkaku-ji Temple. As you walk down the tunnel of sakura trees, you enter a fantastical world of hazy blossoms. The shower of falling blossoms dancing in the wind and the petals drifting by on the surface of the river are a perfect match for the mood of the Philosopher's Walk.

DENVER (CNN) - Claire McCaskill's from Missouri - a near-perfect bellwether state. It's partly Southern, partly Northern, partly urban, partly rural. A key battleground state in this election, it's voted for the winner in the every single election of the past century but one - why it voted for Adlai Stevenson in 1956, I have no idea. And of course, she's a woman who endorsed Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton. She's using feminist themes against John McCain.
The Dems desperately need to shore up the feminist vote before McCain selects Kay Bailey Hutchinson.
Nothing made me sicker than this woman Claire McKaskill backing Barack Hussein over Hillary.
Right now I'm watching Nancy Grace since most of the TV stations are showing that Michelle obama speach. Now she's proud of America.
Claire's speech was absolutely wonderful.
Another special lady.
One neophyte endorsing another. Change. YAAAWWNN.
She'll get paid off somewhere down the line. A big promotion from the senate to whatever.
BILL –get ahold of yourself-you're sounding like the twins Keith and Chris..
CNN's commentators have complained all night there was not enough Democratic criticism of Bush and McCain. If CNN had actually showed Claire McCaskill's speech they would have heard what they wanted. Too bad America missed it (I was listening online) because they were all blabbing!
I can't believe Claire McCaskill has the gall to use feminist themese against John McCain after stabbing her own gender in the back by supporting Obama over Hillary Clinton. Hypocritical at best, pathetic at worst.
Wow! I was really impressed with this lady and look forward to seeing what she does in the future!
where is cambell Brown?????????????????
claire mcCaskill= FAIL!
Too bad we couldn't hear Clarie speak. The CNN talking heads talked all through her speech and then complained about not hearign a message. CNN has made it their goal to bring us 4 more years of Bush.
This lady gave a great speech and does have three of the most beautiful children.
Clarie will not be elected in missouri again. She cannot be trusted.
claire is useless
mccain 08
clinton 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Claire McCaskill , I have been waiting a long time to see a story about you. You are a Judus as much as Richardson. Any woman who would not stand by another, in the positions you are in is a sad, jealous human being. Women fought so very hard to be where we are today and you spit in all of our faces, I will not forget and I'd be willing to bet that the Clintons will be working against you in your next bid and you will have it coming. Your strategy , and that is what it is , will come home to haunt you, you are not worthy of your position, I hope the women of Missouri remember your stance and betrayal.
I like Claire McCaskill. She's beautiful, talented and dedicated for the good of DNC and America.
Senator McCaskill was truly most impressive!
Missouri is going mcCain.
Schnieder : you did not like hearing from a missourian who said McCaskill would be toast if she runs again. Missouri will definitely go republican in November with Obama as the canidate. You can take your pundit tail along with your poll and stick it. You can bet the farm that Missouri will be republican on your Board.
I really enjoyed the convention tonight, I thought Michelle was great, Ted Kennedy, just brought back so many memories, of his brother John,and Robert, I still think of them often, I'd also like to wish Ted the best,and hope to see him back in Jan, and to (Caroline Great job) ,like to say it was nice not to see any bashing of the republicans,I wish we could all come together and not worry weather we are Democrate's or Republicans, But Think of us all as great Americans who love our Country and would love to see our Country become Great again, Because we are in a big Mess at this time,and I'm sure no one would want The United States To be A third World Country What would our ancestors say about us not taking care of the American people first,and doing whats right for America, From an older American, May God Bless This Country
CNN is so bias they couldn't even cover the House Speaker Pelosi, and Sen. Claire's speeches– It is obviously who CNN is supporting. I can't get it why they couldn't cover House speaker's speech–pathetic. The same thing CNN was doing 8 and 4 years that got stupid man elected twice. MSNBC or ABC should have covered this Democratic convention not CNN.
Good for her. Every kind of comment used against McWar Boom Boom is super.
God help us all if he gets elected. People think the USA is in trouble now, he'll have us in WWIII before we know it. His war drum comments are disgusting. WAR,WAR,WAR that's all he is interested in.
I guess he's trying to prove all that military know how he's supposed to have is real. Well, in my book, it is not and he is not qualified to be elected the next president. I don't want someone in the Oval Office with his war temperment or his arrogance.
When President, quick on the trigger does not come first, diplomacy does.

Turning Seconds Into Firsts
Developed for racers
Bendix Race has been specifically designed for race applications.
To formal CAMS race drivers and teams, Bendix Race is a premium racing brake pad, that is designed to out brake the other guy under extreme braking. You get more initial bite, optimum control at the pedal and remarkable thermal stability throughout the race.
Bendix Race is developed by one of the world's leading high performance friction material manufacturers, extensively tested for six months of real-time racing by champion drivers to prove that Bendix Race pads are consistent from start to finish. Bendix Race is crafted in the Engineering Laboratory to ensure the highest possible standards.
Bendix Race has been initially created to suit TASCCO Saloon Cars, BMW E30, HQ Holden and Historic Group N classes. There will be additional references available depending on demand.
Consistent responsiveness for optimum control
Any speed, any pressure, the friction level stays the same. You know exactly how hard to press the pedal without having to guess or test. When you're trying to extract every fraction of a second out of your lap times, you want to know how your vehicle will respond every time you apply the brakes.
The ideal brake pad delivers consistent response over a range of speeds and pressure on the pedal. We tested Bendix Race versus 2 leading competitors by applying the brakes in "snubs" from 200km/h and measuring the speed and pressure sensitivity. The graph above, demonstrates far superior friction stability for Bendix Race which means you know what to expect every time you apply the brakes.
Note: a snub is a brake application that doesn't completely stop the car.
When the competition hots up, you can keep your cool
Less conductive than semi-metallic compounds, Bendix Race is made from a low steel compound. This helps to keep the caliper and brake fluid cool. When the brake fluid gets too hot, it can boil and cause brake failure. The pedal goes to floor with no brake effectiveness. Bendix Race is designed to keep performing even under extreme temperatures experienced in race conditions.
Developed for Racers, By Racers
Champion drivers say consistency inspires confidence
Six months of real-time racing by champion drivers proves that new Bendix Race pads are consistent from start to finish, inspiring confidence and creating winners.
These drivers know their cars and must know their brake pads. They have been testing the new Bendix Race pads on circuits around the country.
So what have they got to say about Bendix Race?

Where would we be without Al Gore inventing the Internet? I'd probably be a few pounds lighter, a bit more educated, and perhaps even have a girlfriend. And what about Google? We'd probably still be paying for email and asking things like "a/s/l" to strangers in Yahoo! chat rooms.
I used these 2 new age inventions to learn some things about the country where I'll land in just a few hours. So in the spirit of education, here's a comparison between America and what I think I'll be calling the great country of Zambia (I'm not pulling a Snowden, just a mere, factual comparison).
All of this tells me I'm walking into a completely unknown, very different, and likely very fun country, hopefully to do some great things for an equally great organization. I welcome this experience with open arms, and look forward to every second of it.

Common Card: Elite Barbarians
Balancing cards in the world of Clash Royale is a must to survive. No game can be won with pure offense or pure defense, unless of course the opponent gets disconnected. The need to have a fixed play in pushing and defending is crucial. What if you have both in one card? Being Bigger, Faster, Stronger, and Better than their predecessors, the Elite Barbarians are not the duo to mess with.
The Mechanics of the Elite Barbarians
These barbarians are named elite as they have much higher stat points compared to the regular ones. First, let's talk about speed. The Elite Barbarians are much faster, enabling them to reach the crown towers quickly. This is a big difference as the common counter-attacks to barbarians don't work. The infamous fireball that gets the health points of the barbarians to a sliver of health does not apply now. The Elite Barbarians can withstand it, including the Lightning Spell.
When it comes to kiting, the pull differs. Due to their improved speed, a lot of changes are seen. Another card that is similar to it is the Lumberjack. Although this time, being a mere common card, it mimics the same running speed of the Lumberjack. Compared to a lone Lumberjack being pulled into the center, Elite Barbarians can be more effective.
However, their striking speed or attack speed is still the same as the barbarians. If the barbarians can be bullied by the mega minion, due to the Elite Barbarian's faster movement speed, they can push through with ease. Talking more about speed, the barbarians can be taken down by a lone Ice Wizard. The Elite Barbarians on the other hand can kill the Ice Wizard despite the Frost Nova attack. The Wizard can snipe barbarians and walk out untouched. Faced with Elite Barbarians, the Wizard can be killed due to the faster pace.
Going back to the fireball, their damage is similar. With an attack total of three barbarians, they somewhat deal damage as if you are throwing fireballs at the enemy crown tower. Deploy them alone and they can take out a crown tower easily. These pair of warriors should definitely NOT be ignored.
When defending is what concerns you, the Elite Barbarians can be effective. They can take out a Giant or a Royal Giant easily without having it reach your tower. Same with the regular barbarians, they can take out Sparky relatively well as long as you split them in two.
With PROs, there are also CONs that come along. The Elite Barbarians are less effective than the barbarians in defending from a Hog Rider. Since they are only two, they cannot make a wall to block out the Hog Rider for a bit unlike with the barbarians. As it costs 6 elixir, sending a rocket to counter it is a fair trade especially if there is no other good cards to defend.
With the single-target attack, the Elite Barbarians are weak with mobs of units. A Skeleton Army can annihilate a pair of Elite Barbarians. Of course if Zap is not used to wipe them out. Although they are very fast, they do attack as regular barbarians. This makes the tombstone a great counter attack against them. Regular barbarians have a higher total of overall health points and hit points making them effective against Elite Barbarians.
If timed well, a pair of archers can take down a pair of Elite Barbarians. This happens with the help of the crown towers though, as players need to pull them into the middle for perfect execution. The Musketeer also does a good job against the Elite Barbarians with a slight difference in elixir than the archers. The bowler is an awesome unit to defend against Elite Barbarians because of the push-back effect it does.
Mentioned earlier that the Mega Minion cannot stop them from reaching the crown towers, the Minion Horde is more effective. As long as there are no arrows or other spells involved, they are a great defense against the duo.
THE VERDICT: There are a lot of things to take in consideration. Having a revamped stat points compared to the regular barbarians, the Elite Barbarians are a real threat. Moving fast and working as both offensive and defensive, they are not that easy to take down. These warriors are versatile. Working hard for players to win battles… the Elite Barbarians are truly worth keeping.

Leverage (vb.) to use something for its maximum force
Mark understood how to leverage this life. At a turning point in his book, he included an interaction between Jesus and Peter that contains some kernels of truth, that when planted, give rise to a leveraged life. Near the end of the encounter, Jesus speaks these words: "For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his for me and for the gospel will save it." (Mark 8.35) Jesus knew how to use his time on earth, his life on earth, for the maximum effect.
To live a life of leverage, one used to the fullest extent, first off, we must understand the identity of Jesus. Mark begins the narrative with a question from the mouth of Jesus: "who do people say that I am?" This is a vital question for Mark who begins his Gospel with "The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God."(1.1) and arrives at his pint in chapter 15 with a Roman Soldier confessing "Surely, this man was the Son of God!" (15.39). Linking these two confessions, there were multiple partial-confessions throughout the book.
- After he stilled the stormy sea, "Who is this? Even the wind and waves obey him?" (Mark 4.41)
- After teaching in the Synagogue, the people of his hometown asked, "Where did this man get these things? What's the wisdom that has been given him, that he even does miracles? Isn't this Joseph's son?" (6.2-3)
- After healing the deaf and mute man, people were amazed and said, "He has done everything well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak." (7.37)
The identity of Jesus was a high point on Mark's list of things that he wanted his gospel to communicate. Many in Mark's gospel missed the point. In John, everyone who walked away knew exactly who Jesus was…not so for Mark. They may have walked away healed, but they walked away from Jesus, leaving life with Jesus on the table. When and only when we understand and can answer the question "who is Jesus?" will we be able to leverage our lives to the fullest. Peter's answer sums it up. "You are the Christ!" A few words with thousands of implications. Christ is the greek equivalent of the hebrew word Messiah. Messiah was the one sent from God to save his people. He is the one who would hear his people, fight for his people, and ultimately bring rule to the people. Peter is saying: "Jesus you are the Messiah." It was as close to the true identity of Jesus as any human confession seen in Mark's gospel up to this point.
The real identity of Jesus changes us. When I understand the power that Jesus has, over the spiritual world of demons in this particular case or over the physical world's greatest attempt to dissuade us, death, does it begin to resonate that it too lives in me. Only when I understand that Jesus stopped for little children, reached out and touched lepers, took time for a desperate father, and spoke to a broken woman, will I realize that he has promised to do the same for me. When I understand his humanity, after all Mark does paint a more "human" figure of Jesus than the other gospel writers, only then do I bear my own soul to him for his working. "Who Jesus is" changes the way we live.
The second thing needed to live a life of leverage, is an understanding of his mission. Following Peter's confession, Jesus begins to teach about his betrayal, death, and resurrection. It is no coincidence that when we first learn of Jesus true identity, as the Christ, is when he first predicts his death. It is true. He came to die for us! Let that be known. In the next two chapters, 9 and 10 respectively, we will learn further of his death. But for now, he sticks to the bare bones of it. "The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again." (8.31) Jesus mission had taken on different forms starting early in Mark's book. He came to preach (1.38), then to call sinners (2.17). Then he came to be killed (8.31; 9.31) which you would think would be the pinnacle of his mission. But its not. See dying for no reason has no effect. Jesus death would have meaning, purpose…leverage. He came to be served up, sold out, and handed over (10.33-34); ultimately he came "not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." (10.45) His mission was revealed in greater detail as the book progressed.
Peter, upon hearing the news of Jesus ultimate demise, rebuked him. For all the progress he had made in the prior paragraph, now he seems to be sliding back into his old ways. He didn't understand Jesus's ultimate mission. For a man who understood Jesus' identity, he missed the mission of Jesus. If we are to life a life of leverage, it has to center around the mission of Jesus. Jesus came to seek and save the lost. He came to testify to the truth and show us the light. He came as a ransom, a peace offering, a sacrifice. He came in order to give us life. He came, his mission, was to let us leverage this life.
The third necessity of a leveraged life, is following Him. (Mark 8.34-37) Jesus turns the private rebuke of Peter into a public teaching to the crowd. The message is: "Follow". It is made clear that this teaching is not just for Peter, but for everyone. Crowds were essential to the "following" in Mark's book. Sixteen times, Mark uses the word akouloutheo, when translated to English is "follow" and it breaks down this way.
- Twice, it is used in the context of two men [Simon/Andrew and 2 unnamed disciples] (1.18; 14.13)
- Twice, it is used in the context of the disciples (6.1; 9.38)
and here are the important two:
- Once it is used of an individual. Peter follow's "from a distance" in the courtyard after Jesus' arrest. Not a good thing. (14.54)
- Eleven times, it is used in the context of the crowd. Either the crowd "followed Jesus" or heard Jesus teach on "following", or watched someone "follow" (2.14,15; 3.7; 5.24; 8.34; 10.21, 28, 32, 52; 11.9; 15.41)
Crowds were essential to Mark's understanding of what it means to follow Jesus. Discipleship is a communal effort; a team sport. For sure, the path to Jesus was as varied and individualized as the people themselves, but the work of following is every bit a group movement.
Discipleship of Minor Characters in Mark
If we follow Jesus with passion, joining with others who are like-minded like ourselves, we will begin to live a leveraged life. Following Jesus gives a purpose and meaning to this life. When we pour out our life in service to others, following his example in Mark 10.45, we will find our life. Jesus says it plainly: "For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for me and for the gospel will save it." (Mark 8.35) Taking up our cross is a request to die. When we die to ourselves and follow Jesus, we are embarking on a journey that is unparalleled. Those who get the most out of life are those who hold onto it the least. Only in welcoming the risk, taking the steps, and engaging in the call to follow, will this life have ultimate meaning and purpose.

So What it Thriving?:
"Thriving is about flourishing in life, regardless of where you are or what you're doing, what your past experiences were like, what your relationships are like, how much money you have, or what skills you have. It's about fine tuning your mind and body to get the very best from them" Rob Kelly
Then I can help you achieve the life you want.
Hi, I'm Kate Patterson, and I have been helping people all my professional career, initially as a teacher but now as a Licensed Thrive Programme Consultant®, to gain the skills and develop the resources they need to be happy, well rounded and successful people in their own right. I will show you how to overcome any mental health issues, wellbeing problems and show you how you can take control of your life, and feel great. In just six weeks I will teach you the skills you need to feel really good about yourself. You will learn how to manage your emotions and your thinking patterns well and develop the skills you need to thrive and flourish. You will learn how to tolerate and cope with challenges well and be able to bounce back quickly from life's ups and downs so that you can really enjoy your life. I have found the Thrive Programme to be life-changing for me personally and hugely beneficial, it is positive and had had an enormous transformational effect on my life and those people I meet. I can really empathise as not only am I dyslexic so my journey through the education system was tricky, to say the least, but I have faced many other of life rich challenges and I have learned so much about myself from them.

What is Thriving?
Ilona Boniwell writes "positive emotions broaden our attention and thinking which in turn means that we have more positive thoughts and a greater variety of them". What she is implying is that when we experience things like happiness, pleasure or joy, or that we are interested or curious in the world around us we are far more likely to be creative and open-minded. Thriving is not languishing in the realms of OK. Thriving is moving forward and has no endpoint. The world really is your oyster. This is what thriving looks like. I know what I would prefer, what about you?
Thriving is having the skills and resources to be able to bounce back quickly from any problems, illnesses or other issues in life, overcoming obstacles and living the life you want quickly and easily. We all can face difficulties in our lives, some of our own making and some that we have no control over at all and the sense of powerlessness can be overwhelming.

The Thrive Programme will teach you not only awareness and self-insight but also skills that you need in order to thrive. It's an exciting prospect don't you think! Problems Helped

Grand Secretary's column - Spring 2019
From the Grand Secretary
Having been privileged to have participated in the Installation of its new District Grand Master, I am fortunate enough to be writing this from our sun-soaked District of Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean.
As a doctor, I was always on the lookout for medical conferences in exotic places that happened to coincide with local lodge meetings. Escaping the 'conference dinner' in favour of meeting local brethren was never a difficult choice, and in the space of an evening I would find out, from those that knew, what was really worth doing and visiting for the remainder of my stay.
Our Districts are, and always have been, an integral and important part of the United Grand Lodge of England. For hundreds of years, they have represented and practised the finest values of English Freemasonry in far-flung corners of the globe. They count amongst their members those with power and influence, and those with little, and often bring together people who traditionally might not be easy bedfellows – much more so than we do in England. It is my stated intention to ensure that UGLE works ever more closely with our Districts and that we are able to recognise and support them in tackling not only the problems common to us all, but also those unique problems pertinent to their countries and environments.
Our Districts, of course, have many things to teach us. I have noticed that whilst it is always dangerous to generalise, the Districts I have visited differ from our Provinces in two respects. Firstly, I am struck by how important 'family' is to their success – and bear in mind that they are growing an average of 10 per cent year on year. Events which routinely include wives, partners and 'significant others' increase the sense of community and normality of their day-to-day business.
Secondly, they are much more visible in the communities they are drawn from. In terms of the time they give to serve those around them, they seem proportionally much more engaged with local events and issues than we are back in England.
There is no 'one size fits all' method for success – our lodges, Districts, Provinces and indeed members are not, cannot and should not all be the same. Climates of political and religious hostility or tolerance exist to varying degrees across the globe. I am minded of a certain District where religious leaders are openly calling for 'a coffin for each Freemason' as a way to deal with the 'problem'. Such obvious persecution rather puts our own press in perspective, but one thing I feel it illustrates is that we must become known for who we really are, what we stand for and what we do in our communities in order to counter such abject prejudice and nonsense.
There are those members who feel that we should go about our business quietly with as little publicity or fuss as possible. Whilst respecting those of that opinion, they are wrong. Freemasonry must be associated in people's minds with who we are, what we value and what we do if we are to have any chance of rehabilitating our reputation, and recent polling data shows that it is, indeed, in need of rehabilitation. In today's age, burying our heads in the sand with a 'who cares what they think' attitude will, plainly and simply, seriously damage us further.
We must do everything we can, individually and as lodges and Provinces, to counter some of the unhelpful stereotypes we have picked up. How can we be viewed as secret if we are seen and known in our communities? How so sinister if those whose lives we touch think of us with fondness and gratitude? In an uncertain world, the masonic principles of integrity, respect and charity ring as true today as they ever have before. As W Bro the Right Reverend Albert Lewis, the District Grand Chaplain of Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean, said in his sermon yesterday at St John's Cathedral, Antigua – 'Get out there and do something worthwhile'.
So brethren, if you are travelling this summer, or are abroad with work, and have a few evenings spare, be sure to contact your Provincial Secretary. Broaden your visiting horizons, do your part to bring our masonic family closer together and be sure to make the acquaintance of your brethren in our Districts overseas. And if you are reading this from a far-flung corner of a forgotten empire, and your curiosity has been piqued, you can be assured of a warm welcome should you be visiting London or our home Provinces.
Dr David Staples
Grand Secretary

District Grand Lodge of Cyprus donates €15,000 to help those affected by Greece wildfires
The District Grand Master of Cyprus, Michael Hadjiconstantas, has presented a cheque for €15,000 to the Grand Lodge of Greece to help the people of Mati, who suffered from Greece's worst wildfire last summer
The District Grand Master was accompanied by the Assistant District Grand Master, Leandros Zachariades, District Officers and other members of the District, who visited the Grand Lodge of Greece on 6th December 2018 to present the donation to their Grand Master Constantinos Politis.
On arriving to Athens, they were welcomed by the Grand Treasurer Pavlos Sarof before the Grand Master of Greece hosted a luncheon in their honour. In the evening, they then attended a joint meeting of Asklipios Lodge No. 159, Pistis Lodge No. 71 and Vyzantion Lodge No. 60, at the newly erected magnificent Masonic Centre at Kifissia.
The Temple was filled to its capacity with over 180 members in attendance. The original delegation of nine from Cyprus was further enhanced by the arrival of a dozen members of King Tefkros Lodge No. 9786, who reside in Athens, headed by the Master of the Lodge and his Wardens, as well as Past Masters of the Lodge and holders of District Grand Rank.
After the lodge was opened, the Grand Master of Greece took to the Chair and in a most powerful and eloquent address, acknowledged the international senior and prestigious position of the United Grand Lodge of England and the symbolism of the District Grand Lodge of Cyprus' visit, and recognised this as the beginning of a new chapter in their relations and a strengthening of the fraternal bonds.
Cyprus's District Grand Master Michael Hadjiconstantas then presented the cheque for €15,000 to Constantinos Politis who thanked the Brethren from Cyprus and assured them that this sum would be faithfully applied to the worthy cause for which it was given. He then announced that the Council of the Grand Lodge of Greece had unanimously decided to proclaim Michael Hadjiconstantas an Honorary Member, in recognition of his efforts to bring about the unity of the members in Cyprus and those in Greece.
Michael Hadjiconstantas was presented with the Certificate of the Grand Lodge of Greece, confirming this honorary membership and a gold coin bearing its insignia.

Pro Grand Master's address - September 2018
Quarterly Communication
12 September 2018
An address by the MW The Pro Grand Master Peter Lowndes
Brethren, it is a pleasure to see you all back after the long, hot summer, and I would like to particularly welcome again those younger members of our Universities Scheme and, indeed, anyone else making their first visit to Quarterly Communications this September.
Brethren, this year we will see perhaps the greatest change in senior leadership within the Craft that there has ever been - and I'm not of course referring to the three of us! No fewer than 12 Provincial Grand Masters and seven District Grand Masters will have retired and their successors Installed by the end of this year. With each Installation ride the hopes of not just the members of that particular Province or District but, to a certain extent, the success and longevity of the Craft itself. More than ever before we expect so much from our leaders. We hold them accountable for the guardianship of a heritage stretching back centuries, and also for the future of the Craft, its growth and development and, dare I say, the innovation and change needed to allow it to flourish and grow.
If we are to attract and engage our membership, and those who might flourish as members, we need to be not only responsive to the society in which we live, but also mould and form the perceptions of that society. It is quite right and proper that I pay tribute and thank those who, often for a decade or more, steward and safeguard the Ideals of the Craft for future generations.
Historically we have been a melting pot for ideas, a Brotherhood where concepts at the forefront of science and social change could be debated. We have been fortunate to count amongst our members some of the greatest minds of any age, Alexander Fleming and Edward Jenner; Scott of the Antarctic and Ernest Shackleton; Pope, Trollope, Burns, Kipling, and, like Sir Winston Churchill, those who truly valued service above the external advantages of rank and fortune.
Then, as now, there was not a 'Right' way of thinking, but a respect for all ways of thinking - some orthodox, some challenging. If we, as an organisation have a 'unique selling point' ghastly expression, I know, we respect each other, irrespective of our beliefs.
I know that some of our members were uncomfortable with the direction the Law has taken on issues such as gender fluidity and the obligation that puts upon us as individuals who pay due obedience to the laws of any State which may for a time become our place of residence.
I know from the debates that have been held up and down the country that there are similarly a large number of you who feel that our response to recent changes in the Law is generous, decent and open minded and you applaud it.
Throughout our history our members have held vastly different views on many different subjects. It is one of our great strengths to encompass this breadth of views. Unlike the echo chambers of social media, we meet people who are different to us, who think differently, but that does not set us apart, or put us at variance; it binds us together as it did for those many freemasons who have gone before us.
Brethren, this is one of the many things that, in my view, we have to offer society, and that so many outside the Craft could learn and prosper from, and it is just one of the many reasons I am proud to be Pro Grand Master.
With an eye to the future
Hundreds of Freemasons from north, south and central America and the Caribbean gathered in Montego Bay, Jamaica, for the United Grand Lodge of England's Tercentenary
District Grand Master of Jamaica & the Cayman Islands Walter Scott said it was 'a signal honour for Jamaica to be named hosts of this historical event in the Americas'.
Walter saw the Jamaica celebrations as an opportunity for members of church, state and the community to gather in harmony and share their thoughts and ideas. Running over four days, events included a grand banquet, cocktail reception, special commemorative lodge meeting, a Jamaica Night themed party and a two-day academic programme under the subject 'Looking back with an eye to the future'.
A grand welcome for the Pro Grand Master in Cyprus
The District Grand Lodge of Cyprus was proud to host the visit of the Pro Grand Master Peter Lowndes on 20th October 2017, where he had the opportunity to meet many members of the District, visit a local lodge and attend a Gala Dinner
It was a very important day for the District with plans for the visit having been started by the District Grand Secretary Robert Humphries several months in advance.
Together with his own Director of Ceremonies Charles Hopkinson-Woolley, the Pro Grand Master visited Apollo Lodge in the village of Episkopi where they were welcomed by the Worshipful Master Alan Cook. During his visit, he was also introduced to Gordon Rowell, an active member of the lodge at the ripe old age of 89.
In common with other visitors to the rather ancient Nissen hut which houses Apollo Lodge, the Pro Grand Master was astonished to see the attractive and well maintained interior of the building, including the beautifully laid out dining room.
The Pro Grand Master learnt a great deal about Apollo Lodge and the District Grand Lodge of Cyprus. On completion of his visit, he was then presented with a framed print of an original painting by Brian Howard which depicted the Apollo Lodge building and the surrounding gardens.
The day continued with a business lunch with the District Grand Master Theodosios Theodossiou and District Grand Secretary Robert Humphries. The main event in the evening was a Gala Dinner Dance in the Panorama Room of the St Raphael Hotel, which was attended by 160 Freemasons and guests including the Grand Masters of the Grand Lodge of Cyprus and the Grand Lodge of Greece.
During the evening, the Pro Grand Master addressed the assembly and explained some of the highlights of the Masonic year including visits to other Districts in the Eastern Archipelago and Sri Lanka, where he had witnessed first-hand the charitable work that the Districts had been involved in. He also thanked the District Grand Master of Cyprus and the organisers of the visit.
After rousing applause, Theodosios Theodossiou thanked the Pro Grand Master on behalf of the District and presented a cheque for €10,000 to the Masonic Charitable Foundation – to which, in reply, the Pro Grand Master expressed his heartfelt thanks on behalf of the charity.
District Grand Lodge of Ghana donates X-ray machine to Ghana hospital
Pro Grand Master Peter Lowndes was present in September when the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH) in Accra, Ghana, received a $42,000 X-ray machine from the District Grand Lodge of the country as part of Freemasonry's Tercentenary celebrations
The equipment will help in the effective treatment of all forms of kidney stones. Along with the Pro Grand Master, Ghana District Grand Master Isaac O Hood led a delegation in order to present the machine's documents to KBTH chief executive Dr Felix Anyah.
Barbados and Eastern Caribbean Freemasons donate JMD 800k in wake of tropical storm Erika
District help for Dominica storm relief
Last August the small Caribbean island of Dominica was hit by tropical storm Erika. Five hours of the storm's intense wind and rain provoked flooding and landslides, destroying hundreds of homes in the process.
St George Lodge, No. 3421, which has worked on the island for over 100 years, enlisted the help of brethren in the District of Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean, and took immediate steps to assist. The Freemasons' Association of Jamaica, through District Grand Master Walter Scott and District Grand Secretary Robert Forbes, donated JMD 800,000 to The Salvation Army as its contribution to the Dominica Relief Fund. The presentation was received by the territorial commander, Commissioner Gerrit Marseille, and property officer Major Stanley Griffin.
Jamaica donates J$551,000 to Wortley Home for Girls following fire
Jamaica helps rebuild girls' home
Walter Scott, District Grand Master of the District Grand Lodge of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, has presented a cheque valued at J$551,000 to Keith Sangster, chairman of the board of the Wortley Home for Girls, on behalf of the District. The donation will help the home recover from a fire that destroyed a section of the facility.
District's annual donations to Jamaica National Children's Home
Jamaica Grand Lodge funds children's home
The District Grand Lodge of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands makes annual donations to the Jamaica National Children's Home. These are funded by lodges making yearly contributions to District Grand Master Walter Scott's Child Care month. Further donations are provided by the District's Freemasons' Association, a company that generates income by renting out its building space.
New university chair of Mathematics funded by District Grand Lodge of Ghana
Ghana District sponsors university chair
Working with the District Grand Lodge of Ghana (English Constitution), the Phillips family has presented GH¢20,000 to the Methodist University College Ghana to create a Chair in mathematics. It will be known as the JVL Phillips Chair of Mathematics, after the former District Grand Master of Ghana.
Presenting the cheque at the university campus in Dansoman, Accra, District Grand Master Kow Abaka Quansah said the doctor had served Freemasonry by establishing masonic charities such as the Samaritan Fund to cater for the poor and needy in society. 'The late Dr James Villers Legge Phillips, affectionately known as "Uncle Jimmy", was an icon who was eminently admired and respected.'

Head Honcho
In C. Leigh Purtill's "All About Vee," bold and bright 18-year-old Veronica May also says yes -- to life, love and adventure. ~ Leanne Italie
All About Vee is a must-read book for all young teenage girls, in my opinion, for the simple fact that Purtill illustrates how women who aren't a size 0 are treated not only in LA and not only because they are striving to become actresses, but all across this country. She gives the weight epidemic that plagues so many young girls a story and luckily, Veronica does not change a thing about her weight throughout the book, which I was impressed with. ~ Holly O (WomanTribune.com)
ALL ABOUT VEE is the quintessential feel-good read, with a great message and the perfect blend of romance and fun! Its greatest strength, of course, lies in its protagonist. Veronica keeps it real; her reactions, emotions, and actions are the genuine ones of that girl behind the counter who you just know will make a great friend. ~ Steph Su Reads
The depth behind the family struggles was also surprising. It was dealt with caution and denial, as would most real familial problems. In the end, things worked out, and I was glad; the book gave just enough of an ending to be satisfied without feeling rushed or overdone. I also appreciated how the author dealt with Veronica's weight issues; society is too over-obsessive about looks and appearance, and All About Vee showed that there's more to Hollywood (and life!) than how you look. ~ Chelsea Swiggett (coffeeandcliffhangers.com)
ALL ABOUT VEE was, to use a single word, unexpected. I didn't realize there'd be so much depth in the novel, despite it's length. I figured it'd be something between GOSSIP GIRL and SECRETS OF MY HOLLYWOOD LIFE, but it was something so much better than that. ~ Jennifer Wardrip (teensreadtoo.com)

Abilify for Bipolar Disorder
Abilify® (aripiprazole) is an antipsychotic medication approved for treating various mental illnesses. Many people use Abilify for bipolar disorder, but the medicine is also licensed to treat schizophrenia, autism, and depression.
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a serious brain disease that causes extreme shifts in mood, energy, and functioning. Currently, it is thought that bipolar disorder may be at least partially genetic. Bipolar disorder is different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through -- the symptoms of bipolar disorder are more severe. Episodes of mania and depression typically recur throughout the affected person's lifespan. Between episodes, most people with bipolar disorder are free of symptoms. Effective bipolar disorder treatment usually involves a combination of psychotherapy and bipolar medications.
Healthcare providers often recommend Abilify for bipolar disorder to treat acute episodes of mania or mixed episodes (which involve symptoms of both mania and depression). The medication is also approved for continued use once the acute episode has improved.
(Click Abilify Uses to learn more about other approved uses for this medication and to find out how Abilify works for these various conditions.)
