In what areas of your life do you worry the most? It's interesting that what we think we can do by worrying really doesn't happen at all. I know from my life whenever I was worried about things I thought that by worrying I showed that I cared, and that I was getting something done. However, the more I think about it the more I realize that worrying never really accomplishes anything. In fact, it actually goes to hinder us more than anything else. You see worrying is really just a smaller way to say we don't know if God will come through. We somehow think that if we add a little worry to His holy mix that things will work out better.
"Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? Matthew 6:25-27
Listen, there's nothing going on in our lives that God cannot take care of! There's nothing that's catches Him by surprise or that He doesn't know about. There isn't anything that we cannot or shouldn't be able to lay down at the altar of the Cross including our lives. Today, you and I need to make a stand against that worry that creeps up in our minds and wants to steal away our strength and faith.
I don't know what you're facing. I don't know the situations or circumstances in your life. However, I know the One who does. He knows all about you, your life, and the situations you are facing. He doesn't need us to help Him, He needs us get out of His way. The scripture tell us that we serve a God who effortlessly created the world in six days and still knows how many hairs you have on your head. Romans 8:28 tells us that He is in full control of all things, and works all things out for good of those who love him.
I admitted to you that I'm not perfect, and I certainly haven't figured all there is to figure out. It's taken me a long time to learn not to not give in to worry, but what took me the longest to learn was to surrender the things I worried about to God and allow Him to take care of them. But I have found that when asked God to take over, He did. What's unsurprising is that once He did take over things turned out a lot better than they did or they were while I was trying to take care of them on my own." Cast your burden on the LORD, and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken." Psalm 55:22
This is my Prayer: God remove all my worries and fear for today and tomorrow. Lord reveal Your promises in Your Word to me. Jesus strengthen my faith so that I will trust You to be in control. Lord show me how to have a more intimate relationship with You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Forgiveness is hard isn't it, especially when we have the right to be upset? Think about the story of Esau and Jacob. Jacob betrayed Esau in a mighty way, he took everything from Esau. And after that betrayal Jacob hit the road. Then one day Jacob decides to come back and Esau just forgives him.
"Then Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming with his 400 men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and his two servant wives. He put the servant wives and their children at the front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph last. Then Jacob went on ahead. As he approached his brother, he bowed to the ground seven times before him. Then Esau ran to meet him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept." Genesis 33:1-4
Have you ever wondered what thought processes Esau went through to get to this place of forgiveness? I try to imagine what would happen in today's world if something like this happened to anyone of us. I mean think about how something like what Jacob did to Esau would go in today's world. Today's world is about seeking our own vengeance and payback instead of forgiveness. I have to be honest with you in the fact that there was a time that had someone ripped me off like that I am certain that I wouldn't have been so quick to forgive and forget, but God's done a lot of work in my heart when it comes to this area too. I'm still learning to forgive without holding any kind of grudge at all. I can honestly say that I'm getting better at forgiving like God has forgiven me, but sometimes it's a struggle to not hold on to the hurt.
Why do we hold onto hurt? I think it because we don't look at forgiveness correctly. We judge ourselves from a horizontal stance when we should be judging ourselves from a vertical one. You see, we think things like, "I'm not so bad compared to them." We think our sins aren't as bad as someone else's, but in the eyes of God they are all the same. I don't know about anyone else's life, but when it comes to mine, I know exactly what I've done in my life. Therefore there's no right or reason for me to ever point a finger at someone else to say that at least I didn't do what they've done, because what God's forgiven and given me grace for is just as bad. I needed the grace, mercy, and Blood of Jesus to cleanse me just as much as anyone else.
Jesus Christ was the only perfect person and will be the only perfect person ever. When we measure ourselves in light of his standard, we will always fall short. No matter how big or how small we think our sins may be, without a Savior they still separate us from God. You don't need anyone's participation or permission to forgive them. Forgiving someone is the most self-loving thing you can do, because forgiveness is for you, not the other person.
This is my Prayer: Heavenly Father I don't want to hold on to bitterness and unforgiveness. Lord if there's any of that in my life reveal it to me and help me to let it go. Jesus give me a heart like Yours. Help me to get to a place where I extend grace, mercy, and forgiveness as quickly, as easily, and as completely as You do. In Jesus' name, Amen
Do you tend to be more negative or positive with your words? We live in a world that focuses on the negative. The news we watch on TV is almost always filled with stories about bad stuff. It's almost always, the government did this, this person has died, this horrible accident happened, this person was shot, stabbed or arrested, so much negativity. That's why my wife doesn't watch it anymore, because it really affects her heart and mind. And if I'm not careful, I can find myself fretting over things just because someone told me something bad happened. It causes me to worry and steal trouble from tomorrow which totally overloads the troubles that today already has. Matthew 6:34 "Therefore don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
Here's a challenge for you: Try going one day without saying anything negative, rude, sarcastic or hurtful to anyone or about anyone. "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption." Ephesians 4:29-30
This one hits me like a ton of bricks, because I am one of those naturally sarcastic and antagonizing people. So I struggle with God telling me I should only say things that are helpful, that build others up, and that benefit anyone listening. But that's exactly what His word says! When I say sarcastic things at the expense of someone else or cut someone down, it grieves Him. The word grieves mean to throw into sorrow and sadness. You see, God wants us all to have a day of redemption, a day where we find complete forgiveness in Jesus, and He uses us a vessel in which to share that message.
Listen, if we don't treat the people we're trying to lead to the Lord any differently than the world treats them, why in the world would they want what we claim to have? It brings God sorrow and sadness when we allow negativity to over shadow the message of His love for others in our life. The Bible says that the world would know Jesus' disciples by their LOVE. "Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples." John 13:35
It's like my momma used to tell me and she had to tell me a lot, "If you can't say nothing good…don't say nothing at all."
This is my Prayer: God thank You for challenging my heart. Lord reveal to me the why behind my hurtful, negative words. Jesus help me to be a more effective and successful representation of Your redemption. Lord I need You to help me put away this kind of behavior so that I'm not hurting Your message. God show me how to better reflect You and Your love. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Do you find yourself continually disappointed? When things don't go our way, our natural response is disappointment. All of us to some extent come into a relationship with the Lord thinking that our lives are no longer going to be filled with disappointment. However, most of us who have walked with the Lord for any length of time come to understand that whether we live for the Lord or not, life is still going to hand us disappointments. The difference, hopefully, is how we handle these disappointments in life. Romans 8:28 says that God will cause all things to work together for good, He never says that all things will be good.
Feeling disappointment is understandable and even accepted. But, it should be a stepping-stone on our path with Jesus, not the weight that drowns our faith. In our walk with Christ we are all going to come across times where we don't necessarily feel like God is either there or doing anything in our lives. However, as Christians we aren't to live by what we feel, but what we believe. To be honest, I don't always feel like I'm saved, sanctified and washed in the blood of Jesus, but the Word of God tells me that once I've called upon the name of the Lord to be saved, whether I feel like I am or not, I am saved, sanctified, and washed in the blood of Jesus, and I believe it.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths." Proverbs 3:5-6
The thing is. We are to trust in the Lord and acknowledge Him in ALL of our ways, not just in the bad times and not just the good ones, but ALL of them. That means even in the times of disappointment where it seems like nothing is happening at all and that God is not in control. I can know that He's not only in control, but aware of everything that's going on in my life. He's aware of my disappointment over the struggles, shortcomings, and situations I find myself in and He is directing my path. We still, even as we're directed by the Lord have to go through some afflictions, trials, tests, persecutions, and yes disappointments. Those things are just a part of life, but He always there with me.
This is my Prayer: God thank You for Your promises and direction. Lord reveal Your plan for your life and the situations I go through. Teach me to trust that You're in control even in time of disappointment. Jesus show me how to acknowledge and trust You in all of my ways. Help me to see areas in my life that I need to acknowledge You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Are there any areas of your life where you are still holding onto rejection? Rejection hurts doesn't it? I look back on my life and think of all the times I've had my heart broken because someone rejected me, and how each time it got a little bit harder to recover from it. I know after a while I got to the point where I didn't believe that God was able to repair my broken heart. He did, but rejection is one of the worst pains in life I've ever felt.
"And they proposed two: Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. And they prayed and said, "So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. Then they all prayed, "O Lord, you know every heart. Show us which of these men you have chosen as an apostle to replace Judas in this ministry, for he has deserted us and gone where he belongs." Then they cast lots, and Matthias was selected to become an apostle with the other eleven." Acts 1:23-26 These three verses finish off the first chapter of Acts. This is where Jesus ascends in to Heaven and the disciples have to decide who will replace Judas, the disciple who chose to betray Jesus for a few coins. Apparently, the remaining 11 disciples are deciding between two men: Joseph and Matthias. They made their decision and chose Matthias, not Joseph, and that's the end of it. There is no "and the disciples comforted and encouraged Joseph to continue to pursue the things of Christ" speech after he wasn't chosen.
As I read that passage, I couldn't help but wonder how Joseph must have felt. Rejection isn't fun for anyone. Even if you know that what you were rejected from isn't what God wants for you. It hurts and it can cause you to doubt who you are and what you're doing. It can cause you to harbor feelings of resentment or bitterness. At times it even can change how you react to God. We become incredibly great stone masons who construct walls of brick around our hearts to protect them from pain of further rejection. Has anyone else ever done this other than myself? I know that I became a master at adding stones to the wall I'd built for decades due to pain, rejection, and the list of reasons to add bricks to my wall goes on and on.
However, the longer I walk with the Lord the more He's helping me to tear down the wall I've built. I believe one day that entire wall I'd built to protect me will come down and the only shield of protection I'll need is Jesus. We just have to surrender all to Him, including our feelings of rejection. Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world knows all too well how it feels to be rejected. "You are coming to Christ, who is the living cornerstone of God's temple. He was rejected by people, but he was chosen by God for great honor." 1 Peter 2:4 That's why we can come to Jesus in our time of need and He is ready, willing and able to help us.
This is my Prayer: God teach me to turn these areas in my life where still holding onto rejection over to You. Jesus remove these feeling of resentment and bitterness from my heart and replace them with forgiveness and peace. Lord help me tear down the walls I've built in my life. In Jesus name, Amen.

The memorial service for Motörhead frontman Lemmy has been enlarged due to overwhelming public support.
The service, which is set for Saturday (January 9), was originally intended to take place at Lemmy's favourite haunt the Rainbow Bar & Grill. However, as Metalhammer reports, the tribute will now extend to the whole of West Hollywood's Sunset Strip.
Organisers have stated: "Due to the overwhelming and supportive response to Lemmy's memorial, we are now using the entire Strip to compensate for overflow.
"The Rainbow will close from 5.00 until 9.00 for a private service – however the Roxy and Whisky will remain open to accommodate those looking to show their respects during this time."
Lemmy passed away on December 28 following a short battle with cancer.
Since then, tributes to the rock legend have been pouring in, with fans attempting to get Motörhead's 1980 hit 'Ace Of Spades' to Number One in his memory. The track is currently at Number Nine in the midweeks, with over 31,000 likes on the campaign's Facebook page.

In Memoriam
In Memoriam: Our Beloved Jane Raley
It is with the greatest sadness that we announce the passing of Co-Director Jane Raley, a member of our legal staff since 2000 and truly the heart of the Center on Wrongful Convictions. She died peacefully at home on Christmas morning 2014, surrounded by her loving family.
The cause of criminal justice has lost one of our greatest and most compassionate warriors. Jane was an incredible lawyer, a tenacious advocate for her clients, a revered mentor of law students and young lawyers, and an exceptionally loving and caring person. All who knew her will miss her beyond measure. Many innocent men and women are free from their convictions due to Jane's work, and many young lawyers are out doing good in the world—and understand the good that attorneys can accomplish—due to Jane's magnificent example during her 14 years as a law professor at Northwestern University School of Law.
A sampling of online tributes to Jane:
- Chicago Tribune obituary
- Chicago Daily Law Bulletin obituary
- NPR "All Things Considered" radio story
- Jeanne Bishop's Huffington Post reflection
- Daily Northwestern story
Rest in peace, our dear Jane.

FUCK ON THE BEACH // TERLARANG - split 12
FUCK ON THE BEACH (Japan)
If you don't know what to expect here I can't really help, this is brutal, light speed clattering blasts, razor-wire treble drenched guitar and whirling layered screaming at it's finest. Plenty of ear splitting distortion, feedback, mics peaking and everything way too loud in the best way. This is fun loving fast-core power-violence from Japan which I'm pretty sure even has a 'clap-track' on the self titled outro track. Fucking excellent. This side of the split is primarily hyper fast d-beats with the odd blast thrown in, so is sonically the inverse of the Terlarang side. For fans of Japanese style everything faster and louder style grind-violence.
TERLARANG (Malaysia)
Lo-fi to the point of incomprehensibility this side of the split goes even further down the slopes of treble-valley than Fuck On The Beach, sounding like the guitars are physically tearing the speaker cones from the amp and the rest of the band are trying frantically to hold them back in. Everything here is fast, no slow at all on this side. Maybe one or two slightly slower than light speed d-beat smashers floating about in there but this is really all about the pace. The fast as fuck and don't care nature is epitomised by the cats on the split cover and the last track basically sounding like black metal but being called 'Stop The Hate' in what seems to be a conscious rejection of the bullshit ideals of traditional NSBM. Nice.

Controls And Pack
HotTubWorks Spa Packs and Controls are second-to none in quality, durability and price. They all feature world class construction, certification from one or more of the following agencies: UL, ETL, CSA and CE, and our exclusive 3 Year Warranty. Plus, now you can now select from several product types and almost endless configurations.
Do you need a Pack or a Control?
A spa control is the box of electronics that functions as the brains of your spa telling all the other spa components (like your pumps) what to do. If you are married, think of how your spouse operates most of the time and you'll have a good idea of what a spa control does. Also like a spouse, some controls come with heaters and some don't.
A spa pack is a complete system including a control, an additional pump or two and perhaps a blower [insert hot air joke here].
Simply put, you need a Pack if:
- Your spa gets a ton of use or it is more than 7 years old and you have to replace a major part (like a control or a pump). In this case, you can assume that other parts will be substantially worn and you might want to replace the whole deal while you're at it (your spa's shell and cabinet will last indefinitely so it's not unusual to replace the pack once or twice during a spa's life).
- Your spa has an old fashioned air (pneumatic) system with air button controls and you want to upgrade to a digital topside control. While we offer air-switched controls and equipment packs, they are offered only as a convenience to those who wish to keep their existing air button topside panel. The choice we recommend is a new electronic control pack because you gain the advantage of temperature display right where you can see it as well as many nice features that aren't available using air-switched controls
- You have called the spa tech to come fix your spa for the umpteenth time and you are sick and tired of being nickel and dimed to death.

Lewis Nodes
Built initially for steam-haulage, this coach was converted for electric operation as a driving trailer in 1921, at which time the end compartment was rebuilt to a driver's cab. It was converted for steam haulage on the Metropolitan's Chesham Branch in 1940 as LT No.518, a push-pull driving vehicle. Purchased by the Bluebell in 1961, it was used during the sixties, since when it has been out of use except for filming work.
As part of the BASH project to return the set of four "Chesham" vehicles to working order, it has been stripped, and has received a new roof and two entirely new compartment walls. The driving cab, which was infested with dry-rot, has been stripped out and rebuilt as an ordinary passenger compartment, to return the coach to its pre-1921 condition. Much of the teak required for the reconstruction has been salvaged from various sources.
Following thirty years out of use and 8 years restoration work, the first two of the four Metropolitan coaches returned to public service in February 1999.
A series of web pages are dedicated to details of the history and current restoration of the four Metropolitan coaches.

For Christians, Easter is a bigger celebration than Christmas because it marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the promise of life after death.
While many travellers think first of Rome and the Vatican for Easter, Florence is a wonderful city to visit during Holy Week with an exciting ages-old tradition held annually on Easter Sunday. For more than three centuries the citizens of Florence have enjoyed a procession from the Church of Santi Apostoli (Holy Apostles) to the Piazza del Duomo outside the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore (Basilica of Saint Mary of the Flower).
This exciting celebration takes place each year on Easter Sunday in an elaborate ritual called the Scoppio del Carro (Explosion of the Cart). The roots of this extremely popular tradition date back to the time of the Crusades.
A religious festival with ancient roots
A Florentine named Pazzino de Pazzi, a noble by birth, took part in the Crusade in 1099; the Crusades were holy wars waged from about 1095 to 1291 by Western European Christians against followers of Islam to restore Christian access to holy sites in and around Jerusalem.
Legend holds that Pazzino de Pazzi of Florence was the first of the crusaders to scale the walls of Jerusalem. He carried the flag of the Crusaders, declaring victory over their enemies as they reclaimed the Holy Sepulchre, or the tomb where the body of Jesus was laid before the resurrection.
For his bravery and daring, Pazzino de Pazzi was given three splinters of stone from the Holy Sepulchre, which he brought back to share with his native city of Florence and where they are today in a reliquary in the Church of Santi Apostoli. When the stone splinters are struck against each other they spark, like flints. Stories are told of the citizens and families of Florence carrying torches lit by the holy splinters through the city in a procession of triumph. Over time this procession evolved until about 1622. Around this time, a large towering cart was constructed and filled with fireworks and theScoppio del Carro began.
Easter celebrations
This year Easter Sunday falls on March 31 and just like every Easter Sunday for over 350 years the people of Florence will be waiting to see a special ornate wagon make its way to from the Church of Santi Apostoli to the great basilica near the Piazza del Duomo. The procession, which is free to all merrymakers, usually starts about 10 a.m. and culminates in explosive fireworks at around 11 a.m.
During the morning Easter Mass, the priest strikes the three holy splinters to create a spark to light the special Paschal (or Easter) candle. He then lights coals with the flame from the holy splinters, which are taken to a special container in the specially constructed cart and taken to the Archbishop of Florence at the basilica.
The cart is quite incredible to see, with a height of roughly 10 meters (or equal to a building of about three storeys tall). Florentines have nicknamed this towering structure the Brindellone. It is hard to accurately translate this word, but it is a Florentine term used to describe someone tall and awkward. It is very apt because when the extraordinarily tall cart is pulled by a pair of oxen it doesn't move gracefully through the ancient streets.
The oxen used to pull the Brindellone for the procession are usually white and their horns are decorated gold for the occasion. Draped in garlands and finery, the oxen bring the cart through the streets of Florence past the throngs of people out to celebrate Easter by watching the Scoppio del Carro. The procession includes drummers, flag throwers and people dressed in historic costumes. City officials and religious clerics also participate in the procession.
Fiery explosion
The Brindellone finally reaches the Piazza del Duomo outside the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, carrying the coals lit by the flame from the three holy splinters and a veritable arsenal of fireworks. Huge crowds surround the cart, their excitement palpable, as the coals are taken inside to the Archbishop of Florence at the altar. Everyone waits for the moment during the Mass when the Gloria is sung. At this moment, the Archbishop of Florence uses the fire from the coals to light a firework made in the shape of a dove known as the Colombina. A dove symbolizes the Holy Spirit.
The lit Colombina is sent on a wire from inside the basilica to thePiazza outside where it strikes the cart and sets off a spectacular fireworks display. This is the Explosion of the Cart and the crowd cheers with every bit of spark and flame that celebrates the resurrection of Christ. Tradition holds that a successful Scoppio del Carro will bring the citizens of Florence good luck for the year ahead and a good harvest.

Drastic change in weather...shorts aren't a good idea
The moment we stepped out of our officetel I felt the brisk chill...and the moment we stepped out of our building it felt like someone had blasted mother nature's air conditioner on high! The air felt fresh but holy smokes was it ever brisk and cold. My students had jackets and some of them had scarves. So yeah, maybe today I will consider wearing PANTS and a long sleeve shirt of some sort. That's my ramble for the day--ta ta!

In our conversation, we cover a range of topics from what PR means in 2018, to the benefits of PR, and what types of businesses need PR.
Enjoy the conversation, and we hope you can get one or two takeaways that you can bring to your business.
- Can you tell me more about yourselves and Veracity?
- We're here to discuss how companies can build their brands with PR. To level set, what does PR mean in today's world?
- What are the benefits of successful PR?
- Does every company need to have PR? Who is right for PR?
- Is it just a press release? What are some tactics for getting more coverage?
- What are editorial calendars in regards to PR and how can a business take advantage of them?
- Are you trying to gain the attention of local media or key influencers? Is it both? Does it vary by business?
- You have incredible relationships with reporters and other thought leaders. Does a company have to hire a PR agency to get that access? How do they develop relationships with their target influencers?
- A lot of businesses will partner with a nonprofit as a way to win press attention. What are your thoughts on that? And are there other ways to be "newsworthy"?
- Any suggestions on how to pitch a story idea?
- How should a business prepare for when they get that interview request from a news agency or industry thought leader?
- How can someone learn more about you and Veracity?

Another week of training has gone by. Base building is officially done and we now head into full fledged half marathon training with 12 weeks to go before Ottawa Race Weekend. All of my long runs will be increased each week and the introduction of speed + hills is added to my schedule. Training should become more interesting as the weeks progress since I will be saying goodbye to those easy "can run anytime of day" 3K and 4K runs in about 4 weeks. Track will be starting up in a few weeks which will limit my time in the morning, but apparently we run the big hill behind my school, so this coach will most likely be joining in on the running fun. Along with track, some other scheduling difficulties will continue to happen as we tend to be fairly busy in the spring. Last week was an example as I went to Vermont and had to reschedule my long run to Monday. When you are training 5x a week, a small change can alter the rest of the week. Stay tuned for how I deal with running 6x this week 😉
For the first time this winter, all of my training was done outside last week. We had a pretty big melt in Ontario, and also some very warm temps! My street is completely clear of snow and instantly running became easier and my paces dropped. All of my pace times were under 6:00/km pace last week. I ran a few tempo runs, hilly runs (at a ski resort! With mud!), a progressive run and a 9KM long run. That 9KM long run was a bit of a breakthrough run for me as I ran at 5:50/km pace and it felt super easy. I was essentially running at conversation-pace. I did manage to leave my street and actually run up towards the next major road. I realized when I turned around at 2.25KM that there was a bit of a wind. Nothing trains you better than running uphill with a strong headwind. Reminded me of NYC….
Unfortunately I will be running on the treadmill this weekend. Should be thrilling – luckily I have Netflix to entertain me!
It is no surprise that taking my training a bit more seriously is starting to have some pay-offs. I am finding running below 6:00/km easier and easier each week. Not only am I running well, but I'm also working on keeping up with my strength work and ensuring that I do my dynamic stretches/rolling on a regular basis. The next two weeks is all about speed as I am going to attempt a 5K PB soon. At least I'm going to try to PB. A 5K PB is dependent on a few things: getting track time (which is next to impossible in the winter), weather and rested legs. I am planning on a few other 5K races after Ottawa Race Weekend, so if it doesn't happen in March it will hopefully happen in June. The other change to my race schedule is that I switched from the Commander's Challenge (5K + Half Marathon) to the Vimy Challenge (5K + 10K). I switched because I am probably going to have more fun/have a better experience with the 5K and 10K than attempting a half after a 5K. Of course, I might regret the switch if I get into NYC tomorrow 🙂
What about you? How is your training going?
Did you enter the NYC Marathon draw?

Associate Professor Robyn Horner is a teaching and research academic within the School of Theology, and a member of the Institute for Religion and Critical Inquiry. From 2010 until 2015, she held the position of Associate Dean (Learning and Teaching) of the Faculty of Theology and Philosophy.
The aim of her research is to find new ways of thinking religious phenomena within contemporary Western contexts, characterised as such contexts are by the immense cultural challenges of secularisation, pluralisation, and detraditionalisation. She investigates this area both theoretically (especially through the use of hermeneutic phenomenology, together with a variety of post-structuralist tools of critique), and practically (in collaboration with researchers in Belgium who have developed scales for measuring individual and communal religious expressions of identity: the Enhancing Catholic School Identity Project). Her distinct contribution to the field is the way in which she approaches the signification of religious phenomena by means of affection or disturbance, and interprets them contextually. She is currently working on a monograph on revelation, and is part of a major project: Atheism and Christianity: Moving Past Polemic.
Robyn Horner teaches and supervises in the area of enhancing Catholic identity, post-structuralism and French phenomenology, and theological re-contextualisation.

Many of us look to this day on the calendar to enjoy one of America's favorite steaks.For just a day, forget about the diet. For just today, don't fret over the high fat and cholesterol content. And mad cow?…well isn't prime rib worth the risk?
OKKKK. So the phone was ringing this morning. I was running frantically all over the house to answer to keep it from going to voicemail-after 10 long seconds ( I'm out of breath)- IT WAS IN MY BACK POCKET!
Advice: Keep this in mind: If you want to move before September, you need to be negotiating by June. on.trulia.com/1r8mJvQ
The 452nd anniversary of William Shakespeare's birth is coming. He is not only known as a timeless playwright, but also as a prolific inventor of words. :
Bandit- Henry VI, Part 2. 1594
Critic- Love's Labour Lost. 1598.
Dauntless- Henry VI, Part 3. 1616.
Dwindle- Henry IV, Part 1. 1598.
Elbow (as a verb)-King Lear. 1608.
Green-Eyed (to describe jealousy)- The Merchant of Venice. 1600.
Lackluster- As You Like It. 1616.
Lonely- Coriolanus. 1616.
Skim-milk- Henry IV, Part 1. 1598.
Swagger- Midsummer Night's Dream. 1600.
Shakespeare must have loved the prefix un- because he created or gave new meaning to more than 300 words that begin with it. Here are just a few:
Unaware- Venus & Adonis. 1593.
Uncomfortable- Romeo & Juliet. 1599
Undress- Taming of the Shrew. 1616.
Unearthly-A Winter's Tale. 1616
Unreal- Macbeth. 1623

If you are planning to have children in the future, or you're in the middle of a break from the business world because you've recently had kids, the idea of taking time away from your career can be both appealing and daunting. Losing the momentum on your career trajectory may be less than ideal, but there's a trend that's gaining traction in countless companies, now. It's called the returnship, and it is designed with parents in mind.
Taking several years off work, with no strategy for re-entry into the workforce, will likely leave you at the bottom of the pecking order wherever you end up looking for a job. Depending on the number of years you've spent away from your industry, there may be some minor changes, or massive shifts in technology. And yet, your experience puts you far ahead of most entry-level positions.
The returnship is like an internship, but for experienced, more mature individuals looking to gain a foothold and update their skills, after years away. It seems to have been initially developed by Goldman Sachs, close to 10 years ago, but there are more than 100 companies that now have returnship programmes, worldwide. Programmes last anywhere from two to twelve weeks, and while there's no guarantee of hiring at the end, many do end up staying on at the company where they participated.
Every company approaches their returnship programme slightly differently. Some may pair you with a young intern who can update your technological savvy by introducing you to new software in your field. Others may feel more like a weeks-long interview process, where both parties decide at the end whether it's a good fit.
There are plenty of good reasons to try one of these returnships out. For instance, many parents end up having multiple children over a shorter period of time, leaving very little time to return to work between pregnancies. This can add up to five or six years away, and these days, the technology and software being used can completely change in just a year or two. Six years is a lifetime, in technology terms. Having the option to become acquainted with what is new, so that your CV can reflect current skills, rather than magnifying your outdated ones, is an ideal way to make yourself more marketable.
Sometimes, a parent may choose to stay home with their children for the duration of their childhood, creating an even longer gap since the last time they worked. According to an article in The Financial Times, these people, often older women, end up working in low-level, part-time jobs, nowhere near their previous skill set. A returnship is a way for companies to bring back highly-skilled personnel with emotional maturity and organizational skills that just aren't present in younger recruits.
There are arguments against the concept and practice of this returnship. For instance, taking part in a returnship is no guarantee that a company will hire you at the end. Essentially, that means several months of low-paying work for a company that doesn't want you. An intern participating in a work-study programme goes back to school when the programme ends, but where does a person go who has just participated in a returnship programme? They are back to square one, looking for work through an agency or through their old contacts and, as Stacey Hawley writes for Working Mother, explaining to subsequent interviewers why you weren't hired after your 12-week placement.
Only you can figure out what's best for you, once you make the decision to return to the workforce. However, it's nice to know that there are more options to help you transition than there used to be.

text: Share SHARE PRINT Changing high-risk areas and the impact of the Insurance Act 2015 17 December 2015 Marine insurance buyers should pay close attention to changing assessments of high-risk areas (HRA) and the impact of the Insurance Act 2015. Market conditions in the marine insurance sector are relatively unchanged, but two noteworthy issues will unfold in coming months. Piracy Piracy continues to be a hot topic in the marine sector. With effect from 1 December 2015, the Round Table of International Shipping Associations has agreed to scale back the HRA in the Indian Ocean. However, the move will not immediately translate into reduced insurance costs because insurers have yet to follow suit. The London market Joint War Committee (JWC) – which lists areas deemed at high risk based on independent advice from security analysts met in December and amended the eastern boundary in the Indian Ocean from 78° to 65° longitude. The new joint war listed ares (JWLA) areas are dated 10 December 2015. Vessels entering areas deemed high risk by the JWC should continue to report their movements as defined by the JWLA definition or as per specific policy trading provisions. Insurance Act 2015 On 12 August 2016 the new Insurance Act 2015 will come into effect, which will include the introduction of new laws on placement and presentation of risk, new proportionate remedies where a breach occurs and a change in the law on warranties. The Act incorporates pre-placement considerations, including the duty to make a 'fair presentation' of the risk, which will place greater weight on the insurers' role in the process of disclosure. The Act also allows insurers to contract out of certain terms, and eight P&I Clubs have already taken the opportunity to do so. The Act has also clarified some ambiguous areas in relation to fraudulent claims. Tip for buyers Shipowners need to be alive to the charter party implications of changes to high-risk areas in the Indian Ocean. Keep abreast of the changes and look closely at charter party agreements in relation to which area is specified in respect of war risk additional premiums. Underwriters are showing more appetite to fix coverage for the longer term, but owners should ensure that any extension provisions are included at 'owners option' to continue to benefit from prevailing market conditions at that time.

I remember hearing stories about the dreaded Freshman 15, eating nothing but Ramen, and cafeteria food tasting like plastic. Well, as I was at school 12-15hrs per day in classes, dancing, rehearsing, stressing, not to mention I haven't gained or lost weight in many years, Freshman 15 wasn't an issue. I ate Ramen occasionally, but by no means lived off of it like some of my friends. And, well, it was AMDA - they didn't have a food plan.
Maybe one reason I've garnered such an appreciation for food is because I was now on my own and had to figure it out. I've always liked the finer things in life, usually way beyond my monetary bounds to live by such a style. But food - you can make something simply blissfully divine tasting, and not necessarily have to spend lots and lots of money to buy it from some grand French restaurant. I guess that was also one reason I started my Pinterest Food Challenge. What better way to find new recipes than browsing through endless amounts of pictures and pinning the ones you like, having a spot where they're all together, and linked back to the original recipe - how easy is that?! I've come across some ok recipes, some major duds, and some pretty amazing ones that have gone into my personal cookbook - where only the best of the best survive to get made over and over and over and over and over....well, you get the picture.
One problem I've come up against (which, I totally don't mean to be politically incorrect or a horrible person when there are thousands of people out there who go without and live in poor conditions with hardly anything to eat...now I'm not sure I want to go on, I'm starting to feel guilty...so, I guess I won't call it a "problem" - issue? blockade? hurdle?) is that I'm in a constant state of fullness. I think this started when I visited home in September, and was constantly eating, therefore, I was constantly full. I remember the days (hello 6th grade!) when I was able to eat anything and everything under the sun twice over. Yep. Those days are definitely behind me. I can definitely tell when I eat something unhealthy now, too, which suuuucks. I love pizza! And breadsticks. A lot. But my body isn't very happy when I eat a whole pizza and box of breadsticks by myself. Ah well. At least I do greatly enjoy healthy food - fruits, vegetables, meat, etc. [In fact, I would never be able to live without meat. Kudos to people who do, and I do find animal farms absolutely terrible institutions, but I think they'll always be around. It's cruel, I know, but I can't see how America would do without them (I would love to be proven wrong, btw). And I don't believe me not eating meat would make a lick of difference in their operation. I was at work for 15 1/2hrs on Sunday (yaa money - and that's when I ate the pizza and breadsticks. Yaa Papa Johns!), and read a magazine by Farm Sanctuary, which was actually where my bosses were visiting that weekend. I thought it was really terrific what they do, and it would be a place I would love to volunteer at some day - seems a bit more realistically do-able than hying off to Africa to work at a Big Cats or Elephant Sanctuary. But I don't think I could do a whole month at FS - because I think they're all vegans there and I couldn't ever go that long without meat. I actually remember sometime last winter seeing a bunch of people with animal signs in Columbus Circle, about to go on a walk for animal rights or some such - they were part of FS.] ANYWAY, the thing is I am full a lot of the time, so while there are so many recipes that need making, I don't cook when I'm not hungry, and often when I do cook, I make enough to feed me for half a week! Take the Tomato Basil soup I made last night. I followed the recipe, and have an entirely full crock pot of soup. Even with Carolyn and John eating it, I'm sure it'll be here for a few days. Of course, maybe I should consider becoming a woman who freezes things. Now, that's an idea... Though, that means I would need to go and get the PROPER type of gallon ziplock bags...
And you know, it's a good thing I dance often, stress a lot, and walk everywhere, otherwise I swear I would blow up like HP's aunt in the 3rd book/movie (though that was due to magic, and not eating...though she was fat from food, too.)

, a far more important maneuver in the Brinks investigation was occurring at...
On the same day that FBI agents were photographing Charlie McCormick and Cahal Magee
, a far more important maneuver in the Brinks investigation was occurring at McCormick's apartment: Agents were trying to get inside.
Days before, they'd received approval from a federal magistrate judge for a "surreptitious entry search warrant" - known in law enforcement parlance as a "sneak and peek."
Unlike the typical search warrant where evidence of a crime can be seized, the sneak-and-peek is more like a "look but don't touch" investigative tool.
"We were instructed not to take anything at the residence," FBI Special Agent Leonard Hatton later said.
In the early morning hours of Nov. 11, 1993, agents were making their third try at getting into McCormick's Manhattan apartment. The apartment building security staff had given agents a key to the building and a key to the apartment itself. But a second lock on the apartment door was proving problematic.
On Nov. 7 agents had tried to penetrate the lock. Unsuccessful, they worked to craft a duplicate key that might do the job.
The next day they spent hours trying again, to no avail.
"We attempted to defeat the lock," Hatton said. "Again we were unsuccessful."
There was no shortage of support on the investigative squad. There were six agents and New York City Police investigators working around the door, with additional agents in the hallway and in the hotel lobby to ensure no one surprised the agents as they tried to break in.
On the unsuccessful attempt on Nov. 8, some of the agents had donned construction gear to blend in with a workforce on a job at the apartment high-rise. That way, the agents surmised, they would not look out of place coming and going at the apartment building.
Around 4 a.m. on Nov. 11 the agents tried again. As they had done during the earlier attempts, they ordered the surveillance camera planted in the hallway disabled.
They wanted no video proof of their technique for breaching the door.
"We do technical work and we don't like anybody knowing exactly what the individuals go and do," Hatton said.
On the morning of Nov. 11, the lock on McCormick's apartment finally gave way, much to the delight of the agents.
At last, they were in.

Safety Information
The contraindications, warnings and possible adverse effects of laser therapy are discussed below.
For additional information about the potential benefits versus those risks associated with laser therapy and how they may affect the outcome in your particular case, please consult your doctor.
Do not apply infrared light to abdominal or lumbosacral points in pregnant females. (Laser is contra-indicated for use over the pregnant uterus. It may be used on the pregnant woman as an adjunct to the other modalities being used for the treatment of back pain or other complaints);
Do not apply infrared light to the epiphyseal lines in children;
Do not apply infrared light to the thorax or over the pacemaker itself in patients with pacemakers;
Do not apply infrared light over the thyroid gland, ovaries and testicles;
Do not apply infrared light to patients who are taking drugs that have heat or light sensitive contraindications, such as but not limited to certain types of steroids;
Do not apply infrared light over areas recently injected with corticosteroids;
Do not apply infrared light when individual intolerance of the treatment is noted;
Do not shine laser light into eyes, with or without eyewear protection (Class lll and Class IV lasers are potentially harmful to the retina. Safety goggles must be worn by the patient, practitioner, any individuals in the treatment area);
Carcinoma - Do not use laser over any known primary or secondary lesions. (Laser treatment may be given for pain relief during the terminal stages of the illness - we recommend this be done only with the full consent of both patient and primary medical physician/oncologist;
Hemorrhage- It is conceivable that laser-mediated vasodilation may worsen the hemorrhage;
Immuno-suppressant Drugs: Laser Therapy may increase the function of the immune system;
Treatment Over Sympathetic Ganglia, The Vagus Nerves & Cardiac Region In Patients With Heart Disease: Laser therapy may significantly alter neural function, and is therefore contra-indicated over these regions in patients with heart disease.
Avicenna's Class IV therapeutic laser provides the healthcare provider with a means of reducing pain and restoring function for many patients. While Class IV therapeutic lasers are generally successful in attaining these goals, there are several other factors that can affect your success - these factors should be discussed with your healthcare professional.
Accepted practices in rehabilitative care are important. Failure of the patient to follow instructions involving rehabilitation can compromise the success of Class IV laser therapy. The patient is to be advised of the limitation of activities during the rehabilitation process to avoid exacerbation of the condition. Excessive activity, trauma and weight gain have been implicated with aggravation of musculoskeletal conditions. Repeated aggravation of musculoskeletal conditions can prolong recovery or make complete recovery difficult. The patient is to be made aware and warned to avoid pain provoking activities between office visits, and to follow the instructions of the treating physician including follow-up evaluations.

Aside from stating the obvious, which is just stepping out of bed, I am one of those people who don't consider themselves a morning person. With that said, whenever I force myself out of bed really early, I feel really happy about my level of productivity, but Jezzz, getting out of bed on the first place is such a struggle. I guess its partly because I love sleeping and partly because I was probably a bear in my other life so I am not going to blame myself at all, its in my genes!
I share this because I have tried so many things to get me out of bed without having someone throwing water on my face while I am still in it, or making my bedside table a coffee station, with my OCD that would NEVER work…As I was reading upon some remedies on the internet, I came across with one that seemed a bit too simple to be effective but it works! and finally I can kiss my; "I CANT GET OUT OF BED!" problems goodbye. Maybe…
So what is it?, Simple >> Go buy strong mints at your local convenient store or supermarket. You know, the ones you buy when you are about to go on a date and you want your breath to smell like you drank the whole bottle of Listerine? (you aren't supposed to drink listerine by the way). Keep the mints on your bedside table and as soon as your alarm goes mental, take a mint and place it in your mouth. Apparently the sugar and the strength of the mint flavor wont let you fall back asleep? I don't know the chemistry reaction that goes behind this but try it tomorrow morning! So far it has worked for me. Finally!

Hello wonderful people,
I hope that everyone is enjoying this gorgeous day!!!
I am so excited to share a collaboration that I have just finished with Victoria from Lemons 'N Lyme. When I was first diagnosed with Lyme, Victoria was one of the first people I met. She is one of the most genuine people in our community and her vast knowledge of treatments and Lyme is amazing! I immediately felt comforted by her story……not to mention that her blog is pretty phenomenal with the delicious recipes for every diet type (vegan, Paleo, you name it!).
Here is the beginning of her story including her symptoms, her treatments, diet, detox and so much more. We will release part 2 of the interview next week.
I hope that you enjoy it and that just maybe you will learn something new about Lyme Disease.
