April 27, 2014 – "Perfect Power"
Posted on April 21, 2014
God's Word tells us that our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil. Believers need to understand that spiritual warfare is real and that we are in the middle of it. The only way we will prevail is through God's perfect power.

Both times I have seen Dr. Farber I was able to schedule the day before I needed to see her. This allowed me to be flexible in my work appointments since I did not have to book way in advance. Dr.Farber explains well the procedures she will be performing and answered my questions in a concise and easy to understand manner. The office of Dr. Farber seems to be state of the art as she was explaining her new equipment to me that she had received just the day prior. Great work Dr. Farber. More
She is the best dentist I've ever gone to. One woman show but it's kinda cray how good she is, she takes calls, tells you your payment upfront and on top of that legit great dentist talking you through everything asshe does it and super chill and not trying to murder your mouth like every other dentist I've seen my whole life. Every appointment with her is stellar and I actually don't hate going to the dentist anymore! More
Zero wait time, totally clear communication about what needed to be done and payment options. Extremely friendly staff. I've been slightly phobic of dentists and put off an appointment and cleaning for far too long and Dr. Farber put all my worries to bed. More
Dr. Farber was really professional and took her time to make me feel at ease. I was pretty nervous but she checked in with me constantly during the appointment and kept me informed about what she was doing every step ofthe way. She's really knowledgeable and was able to address all my questions and concerns. I'd highly recommend her to all my family and friends. More
Dr. Farber was excellent. She met me right away. I told her my concerns and she provided numerous options to fix my concerns. From my first visit I can say she's thorough, knowledgeable and caring about the patient. Normally I getnervous for dentist visits but this was hands down the best dental check up I ever had More
Dr. Farber saw me the same day that I made my appointment for an emergency broken tooth. She put me at ease and assured me that she would do her best to help me. She clearly laid out her plan tofix my tooth, and took the more conservative approach rather than trying to talk me into a veneer right away. I will definitely be going back to Dr. Farber for my routine cleanings and any other dental work I need. More
Wow, that was the fastest cleaning ever. Zero wait time, Dr. Farber is extremely fast and efficient. When she was scraping my teeth, it was a little painful, but that's due to how deep some of the tartar was and ithonestly is even more painful at other dentists I've been to. She also uses air polishing, which I've read is superior to traditional polishing techniques. Really great cleaning, and she has you look in the mirror to make sure you're okay with everything! More
Dr. Farber was seriously the most incredible dentist I have ever went to. I absolutely hate dentists and the pain that usually comes with the visit, but Dr. Farber put me at ease right away. She had such confidence in herselfand her tools that her work was fast, painless, and proper. I would have no problem returning to her office for my routine check ups and anything else I may need. More
It was my first time seeing Dr Farber, and I must say I was very satisfied. Her staff were friendly and Dr Farber herself made every effort to make me feel at ease, especially considering that I have a fear of dentist. Would highy recommend her practice. More

Deuteronomy Chapter 3 | Parsha: Devarim Va-'ethannan
1We made our way up the road toward Bashan, and King Og of Bashan with all his men took the field against us at Edrei. 2But the Lord said to me: Do not fear him, for I am delivering him and all his men and his country into your power, and you will do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.
3So the Lord our God also delivered into our power King Og of Bashan, with all his men, and we dealt them such a blow that no survivor was left. 4At that time we captured all his towns; there was not a town that we did not take from them: sixty towns, the whole district of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan 5—all those towns were fortified with high walls, gates, and bars—apart from a great number of unwalled towns. 6We doomed them as we had done in the case of King Sihon of Heshbon; we doomed every town—men, women, and children— 7and retained as booty all the cattle and the spoil of the towns.
8Thus we seized, at that time, from the two Amorite kings, the country beyond the Jordan, from the wadi Arnon to Mount Hermon— 9Sidonians called Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir— 10all the towns of the Tableland and the whole of Gilead and Bashan as far as Salcah and Edrei, the towns of Og's kingdom in Bashan. 11Only King Og of Bashan was left of the remaining Rephaim. His bedstead, an iron bedstead, is now in Rabbah of the Ammonites; it is nine cubits long and four cubits wide, by the standard cubit!
12 And this is the land which we apportioned at that time: The part from Aroer along the wadi Arnon, with part of the hill country of Gilead and its towns, I assigned to the Reubenites and the Gadites. 13The rest of Gilead, and all of Bashan under Og's rule—the whole Argob district, all that part of Bashan which is called Rephaim country—I assigned to the half-tribe of Manasseh. 14Jair son of Manasseh received the whole Argob district (that is, Bashan) as far as the boundary of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and named it after himself. Havvoth-jair—as is still the case. 15To Machir I assigned Gilead. 16And to the Reubenites and the Gadites I assigned the part from Gilead down to the wadi Arnon, the middle of the wadi being the boundary, and up to the wadi Jabbok, the boundary of the Ammonites.
17 [We also seized] the Arabah, from the foot of the slopes of Pisgah on the east, to the edge of the Jordan, and from Chinnereth down to the sea of the Arabah, the Dead Sea.
18At that time I charged you, saying, "The Lord your God has given you this country to possess. You must go as shock-troops, warriors all, at the head of your Israelite kinsmen. 19Only your wives, children, and livestock—I know that you have much livestock—shall be left in the towns I have assigned to you, 20until the Lord has granted your kinsmen a haven such as you have, and they too have taken possession of the land that the Lord your God is assigning them, beyond the Jordan. Then you may return each to the homestead that I have assigned to him."
21I also charged Joshua at that time, saying, "You have seen with your own eyes all that the Lord your God has done to these two kings; so shall the Lord do to all the kingdoms into which you shall cross over.
22Do not fear them, for it is the Lord your God who will battle for you."
23I pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying, 24"O Lord God, You who let Your servant see the first works of Your greatness and Your mighty hand, You whose powerful deeds no god in heaven or on earth can equal! 25Let me, I pray, cross over and see the good land on the other side of the Jordan, that good hill country, and the Lebanon." 26But the Lord was wrathful with me on your account and would not listen to me. The Lord said to me, "Enough! Never speak to Me of this matter again! 27Go up to the summit of Pisgah and gaze about, to the west, the north, the south, and the east. Look at it well, for you shall not go across yonder Jordan. 28Give Joshua his instructions, and imbue him with strength and courage, for he shall go across at the head of this people, and he shall allot to them the land that you may only see."
29Meanwhile we stayed on in the valley near Beth-peor.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'chaos' tag.
I need to reflect on this later, but Planetizen and Discovering Urbanism have both recently called into question the need for planning, as compared to the organic, decentralized system of Emergence.
After reading Daniel's post, I was curious to read Steven Johnson's book Emergence (2002). And just today, Planetizen relayed a Slate article on the same theme. Both the book and the Slate piece argue that cities are formed by the aggregate of a million decisions of residents, companies, and other stakeholders – not by comprehensive planning (understood to be the attempt to direct and control growth or development with certain goals in mind).
With the increased recognition of urban planning as important in cities and regions, there seems to be a parallel trend of anti-planning sentiment in favor of emergence.
Whence this criticism? Whither planning?
Update: I responded in a comment, but realized that this blog theme does an excellent job of burying comments in tiny text that no one will find. I'm copying my response to Daniel's point that the Slate article seems to conflate top-down central planning with all other types of planning, ignoring the participatory and community-building aspects of contemporary planning practice. See Comments for original post.
The anti-planning (or I should probably say pro-market or pro-emergence) arguments tend to set up the dichotomy between absolute planning and free-market principles, while at the same time talking about "putting some mechanisms into place" regarding land use and economic functions and the like. So… is planning good AND bad, then?
If they're reacting against Soviet-era planning, it's certainly not fair to lump anything we do in the U.S. into that category. Even if that much centralized authority is effective in making change, there is no legal framework OR popular desire to engage in that project in America. Their argument against central planning, as you said, is valid, given the value we place on democratic principles and on the basic equality and rights of all people. But to push their argument further, their responsibility is to clarify what *type* of planning they're talking about, and not to accidentally (or deliberately) conflate those ideas.
It seems to be, in part, a case of people getting really excited about 1) nature and/or 2) the Internet, and trying to relate those metaphors to the rest of modern life. The problem with using either is that everything humans do has become artificial, so it's hard to sort out "natural" behavior; and of course, that the underlying structure of the Internet allows the apparent front-end chaos to thrive.
I think it's also a case with some – but not all – proponents of incrementalism or free market or emergent systems, of setting up "planning" as a straw man to knock down, then espouse their principles. The confusion between city planning and central/master planning, as we generally understand those terms, may be a deliberate political move. I'm opening myself up to further criticism by making that generalization, so I stress that it's not always ideological manipulation! But for some, it decidedly is. Whenever you move from observation of a system, to declarations about how it or other systems SHOULD behave, you're out of the realm of science, and into philosophical or policy questions.

Pharmaceutical Companies and Medical Device manufacturers spend millions, sometimes billions of dollars to get drugs to market every year. Many of those drugs are very important to the healthcare industry and might even save your life, but that doesn't mean that you deserve to be lied to about the risks and benefits of a drug before you start taking it. If you or a loved one has been harmed by one of these dangerous drugs or devices, the injuries sustained may be lifelong or even deadly.
That's why we're here. We believe that drug companies should be accountable for the products they release and owe it to the American public to be forthright with the risks, no matter how wonderful the benefits of a drug or device may be. When you contact us with your case details, we will respond within 24 hours to help you understand the next steps in the process and to help you determine if you may be eligible for compensation.

As smartphones get more and more powerful, there's more and more that we can do with them. They've been a great help to keep in touch with others, they've revolutionized social networking and gaming has gone mobile. That's all fine and well but, what else can we do with our smartphones? Musicians know that a portable computer such as a smartphone or a tablet can be a great help, for recording, for reference, for writing and more. We're not all musicians though, are we? That doesn't mean we don't want to make music or at least have fun with music. Android Music Create and Play offers a way to do just that, read on to find out more.
Description: Featuring a wide selection of sounds and samples, that are all royalty free, there's a lot for you to experiment with in Android Music Create and Play. The whole idea is for you to have fun with music and experiment, which you can do on any screen size or orientation. You can choose to loop sounds together or mix and match to create something unique. You could use the app as a fancy metronome, or something to play a backing track to your own voice. How about creating your own ringtone? It's all possible with Fun Music Creator.
How it Works: First off, you're going to need to download the app from the Play Store. There's no free version but, this small price to pay ensures no ads and you get the full experience to boot. It's a little strange to perhaps describe how to use an app that gives you free rein to do what you want, with the tools on offer. What is good about the app is that there is really well-written documentation inside the app ready and waiting to let you know how to use the app. You can find these through "Hints 1"
As well as "Hints 2" in the main layout:
Those tips and tricks are also scrollable, there's a lot of help on offer if you ever need it. It's a nice touch that a lot of other apps are sorely lacking these days. When you're mixing some tunes together, you'll see all of your sounds laid out in the main display of the app, you can loop these or have them play just once. Looping can help you lay down a real funky beat and then find some other sounds to play over the top.
Where it says "Beats", "Samples" or "Hits" is the type of sound you have selected, underneath is the name of the specific sound selected. To change a slot, just touch the button in the middle and choose from a category:
There are a whole lot of sounds and mixes available for you to use in your creation, just finding them all is a lot of fun. You can also change the background of the main menu to something a little more pedestrian or whatever else you want:
You can raise or lower the volume of any one of the sounds by hitting the plus or minus icons next to them. This allows for different noises, like drums for example, to be heard above everything else.
Opinion: For those that love to get a little creative every now and then, Android Music Create and Play is a great application to try out. It should be a lot of fun at parties and you could even use it instead of a karaoke machine – if you're confident of your skills, of course. The app itself is not a bad price and it's by no means expensive, either. using this app with external speakers is really good as well, especially with some of the crunchier basslines offered in the app.
- Speed (4/5) – Everything works fine and sounds were crisp and clear.
- Features (4/5) – There are a lot of sounds, samples and basslines in Fun Music Creator, offering you a lot of flexibility to make something unique and catchy.
- Theme (4/5) – Fun Music Creator has a good-looking theme to it and you can change the background if you feel like it.
- Overall (4/5) – Fun Music Creator offers a great way to have fun with music on your smartphone or tablet and it's definitely something you should try if you're the creative type.
- Wide range of sounds available to play with.
- Save your favorite choices as presets to play back later.
- Decent app design makes it easy to use.
- Crunchy basslines are a lot of fun to mix together.
- No way to record what you make in the app.
- The interface can get a little crowded.
Conclusion: Android Music Create and Play is an app that I'm sure a lot of people have been waiting to come to Android. There are apps out there that do something similar but none of them are as advanced as this. There's a whole host of sounds, and basslines on offer to create something funky. Plugging your phone or tablet into some external speakers lets you have even more fun and you can fill a room with your quick creation. This is definitely one of those apps that leaves it up to you to have your fun. Depending on how you use the app, you should find it to be a lot of fun and there's more than enough tools at your disposal to make something unique in a quick and easy fashion. Take a look at the app and if you like it, perhaps your friends will too!

When I attended Convention in July, I won the adorable stamp set, Acorny Thank You during a Prize Patrol. This very fall-appropriate set has a matching punch, which was first on my list to order. I finally got around to playing with it...see the results:
I started with a piece of Whisper White Thick Cardstock, 4-1/4" x 11", folded at 5-1/2". I ran a piece of Early Espresso (4" x 5-1/4") through my Big Shot with my Woodgrain Embossing Folder, and adhered it to my base.
A strip of 5/8" Chevron Ribbon and another of 1-1/4" Burlap Ribbon (cut in half) were adhered to my card (using Tear and Tape Adhesive) and the acorns were popped up. I frayed some of the Burlap Ribbon, and used a thread to make a little bow, adhered to the acorn with a Mini Glue Dot.
And that's all there is to it! So cute...and this corny little set and punch can be yours tomorrow!
All items can be ordered here.

It is a strange thing to tear pages off on our calendars and to find one has moved from January to April, but that was the position this morning when we got home from Australia. We had been away since Jan. 23. Our travels started with a memorable week at John MacArthur's church in Sun Valley, California. It was a privilege to be there at the time of his 40th anniversary at Grace Community Church; his ministry is a most heartening evidence that real usefulness requires no concession to the popular culture of the day. Serious preaching that honours Scripture, backed by a praying people, will gather hearers and build churches. While sovereignty determines the measure of blessing, the biblical principle remains sure. John MacArthur's ministry is a great encouragement to many of us. One of the things I valued most on this visit to Sun Valley was the opportunity to meet with numbers of the church members ; the part they play in=2 0the continuance and fruitfulness of their senior pastor's ministry is vital. The Lord's Day begins with a large number of elders on their knees at 8 am. And both in Britain and Australia I meet or hear of people of all ages who are gaining help and strength from Dr MacArthur's broadcast ministry.
From California we crossed the Pacific to Sydney, arriving in some of the hottest weeks of the southern hemisphere's summer. As many of you know, in the State of Victoria bush fires were to burn out of control for five weeks, destroying 2,000 homes, and taking an estimated 173 lives. Like poor Britain, Australia now has little time for any public recognition of God, and such public mourning as there was made no reference to the penitence to which such events call us all. In that connexion I have been listening to recorded sermons of S. Lewis Johnson on Hosea, preached some years ago (hear them on http://www.sljinstitute.net/). They reminded me of how Scripture, truly preached, is relevant to every situation, and what a great thing it is to preach it in a day when God is shaking confidence in man.
Our first purpose for being in Aus tralia was to see family, and to meet with friends. The pleasure anticipated was more than fulfilled, and we are thankful.
Again we were given reminders of how the providence of God enters into the very details of all our lives. One of our most valuable experiences was the loan, while we were there, of some 19 ring-binding files compiled by Dr J.Graham Miller who died last year. These were his personal records, covering a great part of his 94 years, and tracing events through New Zealand, the New Hebrides, and Australia. Getting into these bulging files was like entering a rich and vast quarry, and it was soon apparent to me, that with minimal editorial work they contained a most valuable autobiography. All that it called was something similar to what I did on the Diary of Kenneth MacRae a long time ago. (Thirty years ago I first preached in Graham Miller's pulpit in Hurstville, Sydney, little knowing that I was to succeed him there).
So hours, days and weeks went into this projected book, and it was also no accident that in Sydney I was with others who equally revere Graham Miller's memory. They were able to help in important ways. It is due to20the kindness of his friends, Richard and Rob yn Phillips, that Jean and I have a Sydney 'second home'. Robyn has looked after Banner interests in Australia in various ways since 1985, and is taking a main part in assisting the preparation of the book. Jean was also free to help me and Don Jamieson, another friend of Dr Miller's, had all the expertise to deal with photographs. We cannot promise any publication date – it may not be this year – but we are sure the result with be an uplifting testimony to the goodness of God in the lives of Graham and Flora Miller. So highly were they regarded in Vanuatu (the former New Hebrides) that a time of national mourning was appointed by the government on his death.
In Sydney we also had many healthy hours walking and swimming (where better to swim!). Sundays were mostly spent at St Giles, Hurstville and at Rivesby Presbyterian Church. Kevin Murray is now minister of the former and Peter Barnes at the latter. It was a privilege to preach in my former pulpit again. Our Australian time ended with six days in Perth, WA, where I had four commitments. Here also we enjoyed being with old friends. On the fine War Memorial, in King's Park, we found the name of Jean's uncle who died with Australian pr isoners in Burma. Western Australia is eight times the size of Britain and the growth in Perth is very impressive. The preachers find that affluence and glorious weather do not commonly lead to spiritual hunger, but a witness is being maintained and the Christian fellowship is a blessing as it is everywhere.
Some of you remember us regularly in prayer and we are deeply grateful. We shall not know in this world the part that intercession has played in the real history of the church. Coming up are conferences that we pray will prove important. The Youth Conference meets at Leicester, April 24-27, to be followed by the Ministers' (27-30). May there be conversions and lives changed through the Youth Conference! Then we expect to be in the States, May 20-June 22, for various things, after that hope is for quiet weeks in my study and garden. We all need to be preserved from giving out more than we take in.
With much attention now being given to Calvin, I hope why the Reformation was necessary will be understood afresh. We need the martyr spirit back again, and discrimination between brotherly love and only tepid20reaction to God-dishonouring error. All evangelicals should read the 1994 Catholic Catechism. Pope John Paul, when in Australia speaking to priests, said, 'Jesus did not want a church without priests. If priests are lacking, then Jesus is lacking in the world, as is his Eucharist and his forgiveness… We share in the work of Christ, the eternal High Priest.' Men and women died rather than assent to such teaching.
I am thankful that, after many years, I at last got into print 'Charles and Mary Colcock Jones' in the new Banner title Heroes. If you don't read anything else in that book I hope some of you may read that and come to admire these two Christians as we have long done. Among recent reading, MacArthur's The Truth War (Jean indebted to his Extraordinary Women); Tentmaker's reprint of John B. Adger's Autobiographay, and the paperback life of C.H. Nash (Melbourne Anglican evangelical). In Sydney it was encouraging to see the work of Reformers' Bookshop in Stanmore, ably led by David Hann. Such book shops are not common these days and need our support. Too few churches recognise sufficiently the life-changing power of good books. Whatever our si tuation, our common need is for higher views of the Person and grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. How needless our petty concerns would become if we but saw Him more clearly!

Presentation of the novel "The glow of the butterflies"
Ateneo Cultural Andaluz Arbonaida de El Cuervo (Seville)
This novel, the second one - so much expected - from the author of Pulpa de limón, is a multiple journey to the seed, a journey towards the intimate Ithaca of characters of various conditions who, only returning by the thread of Ariadna that rejected him to nostalgia , the future can be illuminated and radically changed, for themselves and for all. The brilliance of the butterflies - finalist of the III Premio Vuela la Cometa, which presides over Tarragona the last of the Goytisolo - portrays with a hard lyricism two apparently antagonistic epochs in the south of Spain: that of the ghost of the heroine and the drug addicts in a end of the twentieth century that was not up to the future that kneaded, and the dawn of a twenty-first century that blurred that social drama with the delirium of a falsified era under the mud on which no one wanted to return. Alejo Ceballos is the protagonist of a redeemed story in which priests, counts, loves and secrets are amalgamated around a marsh that hides all the keys of the plot on the other side of his own mirror. Álvaro Romero Bernal is consolidated as one of the most powerful voices in the new Andalusian narrative landscape.
(Los Palacios y Vfca., Sevilla, 1979), Doctor in Journalism and columnist for El Correo de Andalucía, debuted as a novelist in 2015 with Pulpa de limón, an opera prima very well received by the public and critics. Professor of Language and Literature since 2004, he alternates his classes of institute in his native town with which he teaches in several venues of the Classroom of the Experience of the University of Seville. He has been coordinator and literary adviser for the provincial encyclopedias of Seville, Córdoba and Jaén of C & T Editores, and has published monographic studies of various kinds, especially of that fusion between Literature and Flamenco with which he has intensified his work as a lecturer. He is the author of several essays such as Joaquín Romero Murube. The journalist in the street (Centro Andaluz del Libro, 2010) or 33 evangelical places. From Bethlehem to Emmaus (Editorial AE, 2011). The brilliance of the butterflies, his second novel, has been a finalist in the III Vuela la Cometa International Competition, whose jury is presided over by the writer and academic Luis Goytisolo.

Facebook shares plunged today when CEO announced shift in goals from relevant content to meaningful interactions. Mark Zuckerburg said new algorithms will prioritize more posts from friends and family that spark conversation resulting in less paid for content, including videos and other posts from publishers or businesses. Why the seismic change? He cited Relevance.
These new modifications will significantly change the way B2C marketers promote products and events, as well as influence, gain and retain their target markets. Many companies have shifted marketing dollars away from traditional channels to Facebook and invested greatly into video and content resources. Organizations have reworked their reporting dashboards to capture FB's influence on it top line results. Social media vernacular such as "likes", and "pages" have finally made its way to boardrooms. And now, after loyal marketers have spent years legitimatizing FaceBook as a viable channel,– Facebook has officially announced to the world your are un-friended.
Now that your paid for posts, dark posts, campaigns and videos will rank lower than a snake's belly, here are a few tips.
- Understand the new guidelines and how your organization may be impacted.
- Determine how much revenue could be at stake.
- Have a strategy to contact those hard-earned followers. (e.g. opt in give-away)
- You must know your customers demographics such as age, marital status, presence of children, education, as well as hobbies and interests. Collecting these data points will help you create more relevant messaging, promotions, personas that will enable you to cut through the clutter and increase your likelihood of being heard. Our software P360 provides this for functionality starting at only $99 per month.
- Having a deeper understanding of your customers interest will enable you to shift your ad dollars away from Facebook and place your spend with brands, outlets that cater to specific interest such as style, food and wine, news, and outdoors activities to name a few. Our software P360 provides this functionality starting at only $99 per month.
- Read my book, "Precision Marketing: Maximizing Revenue Through Relevance."
Ironically, we are now faced by facebook to command a deeper understanding of our loyal customers and their interests. No longer will we have the luxury of marketing to them on a generic, community platform. Now we have to relevant to KNOW OUR CUSTOMERS or there will be NO CUSTOMERS.

Annapurna North Base Camp Trek is proposed to those who like to trek in wilderness and less explored area in famous Annapurna region. No Mountains higher than 8000 meters had never been climbed before 1950. A French expedition group led by Maurice Herzog and Louis Lachenal became the first climbers in History to climb the summit of Himalayan Mountain Annapurna I in 3 June 1950. This expedition group wanted to try either Dhaulagiri (8167 meters) or Annapurna I (8091 meters). The team initially make a move to start looking for a route to either Dhaulagiri or Annapurna. Deciding that Dhaulagiri was too difficult, they found their way to the North Face of Annapurna. The route now is popular as French North Face Route.They reached the summit of Annapurna without oxygen. Down to Annapurna became a great challenge and adventurous for them. It was a crazy descent, dodging the snow storm, avalanches, and other miss happens. Both barely make it back to camp.
Annapurna was not climbed again until 1970 after that British Army expedition followed the same route to get in to the summit. Mountain lovers, adventurous people in few number are now exploring Annapurna North Face Base Camp, despite of difficult trail. So fresh and everlasting experience awaits for you. Wilderness Excursion offers this new trekking itinerary for the wilderness trekking lovers to the base camp of Annapurna I in northwest side.

Our journey begins from Pokhara, we drive to Nayapul and follow the Ghorepani Poon Hill route, on third day we reach to Mohare Danda, Palate on fourth day, Narchayng village on fifth day, more three days to north Base Camp of Annapurna I (8091m). We trek through the places of Kalokhola, Phulbari and pasture near base camp. We reach the base camp on 9th day of the journey. It takes almost three to four days to return from the base camp. We can retun back via Lete in Mustang. Tourists may find the journey a little difficult as no lodge or hotel is yet established along the new trekking route.

BUFFALO – Best trade ever?
Well, it's pretty obvious the chant inside Bell MTS Place last Friday came with plenty of bias attached from fans of the Winnipeg Jets.
There's little doubt the blockbuster deal between the Jets and Buffalo Sabres three years ago changed the direction of both franchises.
That's not up for debate.
As the two teams met for the second and final time this season on Tuesday at KeyBank Center, there was plenty of discussion revolving around the deal that saw the Jets trade left-winger Evander Kane, defenceman Zach Bogosian and the rights to then college goalie Jason Kasdorf to the Sabres for defenceman Tyler Myers, forwards Drew Stafford, Joel Armia and Brendan Lemieux and a 2015 first-rounder that turned into Jack Roslovic.
Five players from the trade were involved in Tuesday's game and there was nearly a sixth, since Lemieux is just back up from the Manitoba Moose.
For Tyler Myers, it was his first game in Buffalo against a Sabres team that chose him 12th overall in the 2008 NHL Draft.
Myers had an excellent rookie season with the Sabres in 2009-10 that ended with him winning the Calder Trophy.
But as the losing seasons began to mount, Myers found himself in numerous trade rumours before he eventually was sent packing.
"With the situation we were in, it wasn't surprising that a change came. A lot of changes tend to happen in a situation like that," said Myers. "Maybe the surprise was Winnipeg. I hadn't heard much about Winnipeg (being on the radar). In terms of being shocked, I didn't have that feeling. I expected something was coming.
"It's easy to say that given how things have gone, it's meant a lot."
The Jets made the playoffs in just one of those three seasons, but currently occupy top spot in the Central Division standings.
"We've really developed a winning mentality, really put in the time to try and become a team that has learned how to win," said Myers. "We're trying to keep that going, going forward."
Although Stafford signed a two-year extension with the Jets before he was traded last season, Armia has worked his way into regular duty while Roslovic and Lemieux have gotten a taste of the NHL and probably aren't that far away from contributing on a consistent basis.
"We made the playoffs that year for the first time (since relocation) and both (Myers) and (Stafford) came in and made a really big impact right away," said Jets head coach Paul Maurice. "We're starting to see the other guys. We still think it's ahead of us, with the impact it's going to have. It changed a lot of things. We put in four or five really good players."
At the time of the deal, the Sabres were in rebuilding mode and acquired a pair of high first-round draft picks in Kane (fourth overall in 2010) and Bogosian (third overall in 2008).
The Jets were pushing for a playoff spot and were at a crossroads with Kane, who required shoulder surgery and didn't suit up again in 2015 after the infamous tracksuit incident in Vancouver.
Bogosian has dealt with some injuries, but remains a blue-liner who averages nearly 20 minutes per game, while Kane brought a physical element to the Sabres and has produced 64 goals and 113 points in 177 games for the Sabres since the deal.
"Coming into this year we had big expectations. I think if you'd asked us if we'd be in this position in September I don't think we would have thought that," said Bogosian. "There are a lot of good players in the organization, whether it's with us or in Rochester. You look at a franchise player like Jack (Eichel), he's a great guy to build around. I think the future is bright here. You'd like it to be a little brighter right now. But in all reality we knew coming in it was going to be a process, but I think a lot of guys wish it could be sped up a little bit. Obviously, you want to be in a better position than we are right now."
Kane, who is in the final season of the six-year, $36 million deal he signed with the Jets, is due to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1 and one of the most attractive players on the rental market.
What can't be disputed is that the Jets lost a chunk of their identity of being a big, fast and tough team to play against when they moved Kane and Bogosian.
"Both Evander and Zach were important pieces to the Winnipeg Jets, so it changes that identity when you have two important men go out of your lineup," said Maurice.
The impact of the deal is sure to be felt by both organizations for years to come. "You bring in two men that (play) different styles of game completely. It changes your look, for sure."

Call to Mexicans: Open up your wifi #sismo
Hi friends,
~3hr ago, we just had a big earthquake, quite close to Mexico City. Fortunately, we are fine, as are (at least) most of our friends and family. Hopefully, all of them. But there are many (as in, tens) damaged or destroyed buildings; there have been over 50 deceased people, and numbers will surely rise until a good understanding of the event's strength are evaluated.
Mainly in these early hours after the quake, many people need to get in touch with their families and friends. There is a little help we can all provide: Provide communication.
Open up your wireless network. Set it up unencrypted, for anybody to use.
Refrain from over-sharing graphical content — Your social network groups don't need to see every video and every photo of the shaking moments and of broken buildings. Download of all those images takes up valuable time-space for the saturated cellular networks.
This advice might be slow to flow... The important moment to act is two or three hours ago, even now... But we are likely to have replicas; we are likely to have panic moments again. Do a little bit to help others in need!

Fox Guarding Henhouse Dept: Congressman from Caterpillar to Be Secretary of Transportation
These are exciting times; a new "green dream team" in Washington; Billions of dollars to be invested in infrastructure. In this new world one of the most important positions will be the Secretary of Transportation, overseeing investment in rail, technology, alternative fuels, and yes, roads.
And who is up for this position? Ray LaHood of Peoria, also home of Caterpillar, one of the world's largest manufacturers of road building equipment and technology. And when you look under LaHood, you find he's Cat-Powered.
Caterpillar was not only the biggest contributor to his last campaign in 2006, but Peoria is a company town, and one can't help think that when it comes to infrastructure, what plays in Peoria is roadbuilding.
He is also of the "drill, baby, drill" school of energy policy, which doesn't bode well when thinking about alternative energy for transportation. He wrote to a constituent in 2007:
Several areas in the country offer opportunities worth exploring to increase domestic petroleum production, including the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), other areas in Alaska, the Rocky Mountain region, and along the continental shelf. The technology exists where we can safely extract oil and natural gas from these areas and not adversely affect the local and regional environment.
To his credit, he did vote to expand passenger rail service and supported a bill to promote increased public transportation. But he has no experience in transportation policy. Alex Steffen points out that the Department of Transportation-
has authority, or at least influence, over all sorts of important transportation policies, including things like aviation standards, shipping and trucking, insurance rules, road construction standards. Want complete streets, pay-as-you-go car insurance or high speed interstate rail connections? DOT will have a hand in deciding whether you get them.
It also sets mileage and safety standards for cars. Want a plug-in car in every smart garage, connected by a renewables-friendly smart grid? DOT will play a critical role in deciding whether, when and how plug-in cars and electric car infrastructure happens.
It oversees all of the Federal government's research programs. Want the groundwork done on new policies and technologies? DOT is the one handing out the research dollars.
But even more importantly, Transportation is about to play a key role in handing out hundreds of billions of dollars over the next few years. Without the right kind of progressive, knowledgeable leadership, the stimulus package, the bailout and the new transportation bill will together fund the largest single step backwards the U.S. transportation system has taken since the end of World War Two: a massive investment in new highways, suburban sprawl and minimally more efficient, taxpayer-subsidized new cars.
Somehow, putting all of this in the hands of the Congressman from Caterpillar doesn't make a lot of sense.

Anyone else as in love with the show's intro credit as much as I am? Video of it after the jump for those who haven't seen it yet.
The hype train is real and people will be talking about the show nonstop for the next week or so I just really wanted to talk about how wonderful the intro credits are. I'm pretty sure it took a lot of inspiration from Hannibal's opening credits (which isn't a bad thing). The music also has a Fringe-y vibe at the beginning. I can replay the intro over and over and not get tired of it.
Thoughts so far (I'm watched up until episode 2, so no spoilers after that please):
- Wonderful fight scenes. You really get a sense of how Matt's abilities work during them and how they help him in ways seeing possibly couldn't. Also, Matt's abilities seem superhuman and not exactly superpowered (even though they slightly are). I'm also loving how the fights feel real and you can see Matt gets tired and beat up after a while.
- That fight sequence at the end of ep 2! Love the flying microwave that knocked out one of the Russians. But Matt also does a lot of flips. As much as Arsenal in Arrow. They're fun but a bit too showy?
- Deborah Ann Woll and Rosario Dawson are magnificent in this. Beautiful women, wonderful work they've done so far with what they've been given. Ann Woll, in particular, is wonderful to see on a show again.
- The criminals are competent! Ending the first episode with the "suicides" of the unwanted criminals was frightening. You get the sense Matt is going to have a really hard time fighting them. This seems like way too big of a task for one man only.
- I'm actually a bit more impressed with Matt than I am with the larger MCU heroes? Here's this one blind man actually fighting crime, not just evil spies or superpowered beings, and personally saving people. Saving that girl from being raped, beating up the sex slave traffickers, risking his life for one child... Matt's a bonafide hero. He doesn't care what happens to him so long as he's giving asshole criminals the beating they deserve.
- The black ninja suit works very well for the fight scenes. I'm going to be sad when it's gone and Matt gets the Daredevil costume.
- This show is everything Arrow wanted to be and more.

This summer, I posted a tongue-and-cheek piece thanking policymakers for taking steps to save us from loud television ads. Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.) and Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) have proposed H.R. 6209, the "Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation Act." (the "C.A.L.M. Act") to address the supposed scourge of "volume manipulation" in TV ads by making sure that TV ads are not "excessively noisy or strident." The FCC would be empowered to regulate "the average maximum loudness" of ads to make sure they "shall not be substantially higher than the average maximum loudness of the program material that such advertisements accompany."
Ken C. Pohlmann, one of my favorite A/V columnists, offers his thoughts on the Calm Act in his monthly column for Sound & Vision magazine in the November issue. "This bill is a totally dumb idea," he argues, "and it has the added advantage of being unenforceable. What are we supposed to do? Levy a $550,000 fine when Janet Jackson has a volume-control malfunction?" Good question. As I pointed out in my essay on this, the thought of FCC bureaucrats sitting around squandering their time and taxpayer money on this nonsense is really appalling, and I can't wait to see the reams of paperwork they would spit out when they have to open an proceeding about how "excessively noisy or strident" ads will be defined, measured, and then penalized.
"Fortunately," Pohlmann points out, "practical solutions are already available from the private sector" such that regulation is unnecessary. He elaborates:
At the broadcast and distribution end, as part of the ATSC standard, Dolby Digital has built-in loudness-normalization parameters. Using these protocols, any receiving decoder will recognize the metadata and adjust the sound to proper levels. All Dolby audio signals are controlled by these parameters; when used properly, they ensure consistent levels across one channel and between many channels. True, some engineers and producers aren't setting the metadata properly, but that's a simple matter of education and experience.
At the receiving end, systems such as Dolby Volume use psychoacoustic models that help maintain a consistent level across all kinds of material. They let the listener (not the government) control a program's dynamic range, optimizing it for personal taste, particular listening conditions (such as late-night viewing), and the gear at hand.
The point is that we want TV with a wide dynamic range. After decades of listening to squashed analog audio from two-inch built-in speakers, we want kick-ass TV sound played through our home theaters. Let's not mess that up.
As an audio purist, what Pohlmann is most concerned about is the idea of the government coming up with new regulatory standards for advertising that might have the unintended consequence of changing the way program distributors set sound levels for actual programs. Not everybody cares about audio quality as much as Pohlmann and me, but for those of us who do, anything that ended up degrading the soundtrack of original programming would be a huge step backwards. Network and cable television programs are FINALLY starting to catch-up with movie soundtracks after years of being way behind he curve.
Of course, these are the little things people in Congress and the FCC never think about when they are proposing absurd laws like this.

I was at work, browsing through the graphic novel collection, when I noticed a group of graphic novels for Shakespeare. So of course I had to check one of them out. I decided to go with A Midsummer Night's Dream, because I have not read this play, but have always wanted to.
Before reading this adaptation of the play, I would have said that anyway to get someone (particularly a teen) to read and understand Shakespeare is good in my books. After reading it…I'm not so sure.
It's not a very good version of the play. Again, I hadn't previously known this play at all, so I can't speak for how closely it follows the actual work. But the way it was translated and trimmed to fit the graphic novel style was pretty horrible!
It's in modern English, and the text has been so simplified and directly translated that often it sounds really stupid, and sometimes it doesn't even make sense. Have you ever seen Singing in the Rain? The first attempt for the silent actors to make a talking picture fails miserably. Here's the clip.
Now, imagine this from the actor's point of view. Take it seriously, and this is how bad some of the dialogue sounded (I refer not to the play at the end, which is basically supposed to be this bad, but the plot in between). There was a lot of I love you! You are beautiful! I love only you! And now I hate you! The general idea of the plot is there, but I have great faith that Shakespeare makes his characters sound a tad better than this throughout the play!
I will admit that I finished the book understanding the play, which I know would not have been the case if I'd been in high school and reading the play itself. So there is a positive to having such a simplified version of the story available. My concern, however, is that someone without knowledge of Shakespeare will read this and wonder why on earth anyone ever liked these stories, since the adaptation is so bad. For many, things like Shakespeare are tedious enough without adding a bad translation to the mix!
All in all, I think the idea is fantastic, and if done by someone who really loves Shakespeare, I think this format could be perfect for some people. This version was done by an educational company, however, and I can't help but feel that they just wanted to churn something out for the sake of making money. And the results were less than lovely. I'd much sooner suggest the No Fear Shakespeare side-by-side translation, or for a quick go at it, at least one of the film versions.
Also, quick note on the images (I review a graphic novel and hardly mention the images…I'm terrible, I know.) – The colours and shading were really nice in this book. I didn't care much for the way the people were drawn, but I thought the illustrations were decent. They weren't good enough to make me forget the text, though, =P
Anyone have any favourite alternative adaptations of a Shakespeare work?

There are many different forms of acceptance. This card asks you to embrace all of them now. There is the acceptance of the self and others – cherishing yourself just the way you are, and accepting others unconditionally as well. Sometimes we perceive that which makes us unique as being a flaw, when in fact, nothing could be further from the truth. You are perfect just the way you are! Accepting yourself just as you are and withholding any harsh judgements you are tempted to pass on yourself will bring an increase of joy into your life. Chances are that your loved ones all ready see those "flaws" as the very things that endear you to them. It's time for you to see them that way as well!
I love that we are pulling this card in the aftermath of the election which has stirred up so much hatred and disdain towards those who don't fit into the outdated image of what some people think an American is supposed to look like. This card is a reminder to lovingly accept ALL people, regardless of their race, religion, beliefs or appearance. Hatred can only change our reality towards a place of hate, so we should act with love if we want to live in a world filled with love. It's pretty hard to love someone without accepting who they are. Thus, Acceptance is the first step on the path to a more loving and compassionate world. The Angels encourage you to examine where in your life you are judging others instead of accepting them, and work to make changes in this area. The truth is, we are all children of the Divine and as such we are all divinely perfect, regardless of how we choose to live our lives. Our differences weave the beautifully rich tapestry of society and culture together. The Angels ask that we all reject hatred and withhold our judgements of others, choosing acceptance and love instead.
Our lives can also be positively impacted by acceptance of our circumstances, and the environment we are living and working within. This doesn't mean giving up on your dreams, or believing that where you are now if where you'll be forever. On the contrary! The Acceptance card suggests that accepting your situation, just as it is, instead of trying to sugar coat or see it through rose colored glasses, is the first step to making meaningful change in your life. Only by gaining a clear and honest understanding of things as they really are, will you be able to formulate a plan to advance your way of being.
The Acceptance card also calls on us to accept the things which can not be changed. Just go ahead and release any tension, or worry you might have over things which are fixed, or that you truly have no control of. Take a deep breath… and on the exhale, let it go. Feels good, right? Remember, you can always ask your Angels to help you in this releasing process – they are wonderful allies to have as they can literally carry that anxious or fearful energy away from you. All you have to do is ask!
Also, can we talk for just a minute about how lovely this card is? I love that the Angel on the card is basking in the light of the full moon, letting its' beautiful light be a comfort to her. This card is from the Indigo Angels Oracle Cards * by Doreen Virtue and Charles Virtue. Honestly, I really love this deck. I think it might be my favorite of all the Doreen Virtue decks – it's definitely in the "Top 5" in any case. The images are really beautiful, and because there is minimal wording on the cards, they are nice and big too! I pull from this deck a lot for myself and I find that the message that comes through is always right on.
How do you feel about acceptance? Is there anywhere in your life you are struggling with this concept in? Pop into the comments below and let me know!

Points to read below. Just click these points to read.
Here are some guidelines which we all have to follow to do the On page SEO:
1. Target keyword–
First of all, you have to decide what is your target keyword, which you want to rank. A targeted keyword is a keyword which makes people help to find your site via. search engines. Make sure use always a long tail keyword for your post. Use a focus keyword on your website for one time only.
In other words, you have to know how peoples are looking for the products, brands, services, and information that you offer. In order to make it easy for them to find you- You have investigated what lines are they typing in the search engines, then decide the most uses keyword.
Here are some tools of keyword research by which we can know that which keyword is used more in monthly, competition level, and CPC.
- Keyword Everywhere- You can download the Extension of Keyword Everywhere in your web browser, and then you can see, when you type in Search Engine box like I am searching for Digital Marketing- as shown in below image, They showed the estimated monthly volume of every keyword and more.
In below the search engine box, you can see the monthly volume of a particular keyword, CPC and the competition level. On the right side of a page, you can see that it shows the keywords related to our targeted keyword.
- LSI Keyword generator tool- It shows the semantic keywords and long tail keywords related to our targeted keyword. Once you decide the targeted keyword, you should create a list of the related keyword with this tool, then finally decide the what is your final keyword.
- You can also find your related keywords on Google.
2. Content is the king-
Everyone should know that Content is the king. To rank a blog or to do great On page SEO you have to write a solid or genuine content in your website. I hope, if you want to become a blogger then you must be a good content writer because to write a blog well and quality content is the must.
A good content writer is a writer who doesn't copy the content of others and writes in your own language in any topics. Search engines know one thing only that content should be newly developed by a writer to write a blog. You should always use an Evergreen content, don't write a copy content because quality content helps you to rank higher in Search results.
You can check that content written by you is copied content or original content by this tool– Small SEO Tools.
3. Post length-
Post length highly matters for ranking in Search engine result pages (SERPs). You have to write a lengthy post for getting higher rankings in SERPs. The length of the post can be 1000 words or maybe more. You can write less than 1000 words in your post but there is fewer chance to get rankings.
We have some articles containing approx 2000 words, believe me, that articles help us to improve the rankings of our website and increase the quality visitors to our website. So finally, you have to write a minimum 1000 words post for getting the higher chance of ranking.
4. Headings and Content Formatting-
- In your blog post, you have to use headings (H1-H6). You can use H1 for main heading and H4, H5, or H6 for sub-headings.
- Use always Bold (Ctrl+B) or Italic (Ctrl+I) to highlights the important parts or your blog post.
- Use the Bulleted list or Numbered list (Shift+Alt+C) for your points.
- You can use the Left, Center, or Right Alignment also for your text or images.
- You can use the Blockquote (Shift+Alt+Q). Blockquote elements represent a section that is quoted from another source.
- You can insert Read more tag (Shift+Alt+T).
- You can use Strikethrough (Shift+Alt+D) like this-
- Use the Horizontal line.
- Click on tab "A" to color the highlighted text of your post.
5. Links-
There is an option in your WordPress post header to insert or edit links. You have to use the external links and the internal links for your post. Internal links are that links which send you to another page of your website and External links are that links which pass you to another page of other websites. For external links, you can use the no-follow or follow links.
Note:- Use always open link in a new tab option. How to do this function-
Click on Insert/edit link,
then click on Settings i.e., Link option,
and then click on the Open link in a new tab and then click on Add link.
6. Target Keyword usages-
- You have to use the focus keyword in your first paragraph of the post and the first paragraph should not be lengthy. A short paragraph is easy to read by viewers.
- Use your keyword in the whole post minimum 0.5% and the maximum limit is 2.5% to do the On page SEO good.
7. Image Optimization-
- Use images with a minimum size of property i.e., use images which is less in KB. You can use a tool to decrease the property of an image i.e., Tinypng
- Make sure you use always an original name of an image i.e. If you upload an image describe the SEO. Then original name should be SEO or maybe Search Engine Optimization, not the img-002.
- When you upload an image in the media files of the WordPress, then you have to paste the original name of the image as shown in below image. use the same name in your title of the image and the Alt Text of the image.
8. SEO Title-
SEO Title is one of the most important part of the blog post or a website. It describes the what is all about in a blog, SEO title is more attractive and contains a unique line about the blog or website, then there is more chance to get click on that link, which helps you to increase the CTC (Click Through Rate). Writing good SEO titles is very essential for doing the good On page SEO.
SEO title can be edit in—- Just below the content box, you see the Yoast SEO option in which SEO title, URL and the Meta description are showing. Just click on> Edit snippet> you see the SEO title box for editing and then start editing. Make sure you use your target Keyword in starting in the box, which helps you to get in higher rankings.
- SEO titles look like when you submit your website on Google Webmaster Tool and when Google shows you a result. The below-mentioned red highlighted text is your SEO title.
- SEO titles also help you to describe the website in top of the web browser tab like this-
9. Slug-
Slug is the part of the URL which defines a particular page of a website or a blog. It helps in an easy to read form.

Meta Description is an information which shows the short information about the web page or a blog that what is a blog or a website is all about. It comes after the slug of the page. We have to design the meta description in such a way that viewers click more on that link. More click on the link will increase the Click Through Rate (CTR) and increase the visitors to a blog. Make sure You use here also your target keyword in starting. Meta description can be up to 155 characters long or maybe sometimes more.
- How to edit the Meta description for the website-
- The final meta description will be shown to you when you search in your web browser-
11. Tags-
Tags help us to structure our content. It also helps us in detail targeting when we run ads on Google AdWords. These are used to describes your post in more detail. Make sure you always lowercase characters in your tags. You can edit your tags on the right side of the WordPress when you edit a post.
12. Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP)-
Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) is a plugin used to increase the compatibility of a website for mobile users. It changes the whole structure of a website when you use in your mobile's browser. AMP plugin makes your website faster for mobile users. All you know that in now more of the traffic comes from the mobiles. In a survey, more than 60% of the traffic comes from the mobile's browser.

If the website speed is low then the viewers immediately go back to your website and hence it will increase the Bounce Rate of the Website. Bounce Rate will decrease the ranking of the website. Download the Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) plugin for WordPress.
13. Websites Speed-
Websites speed highly matter in website optimization. We have to optimization our website in such a way that users like your website and stay connected with your website. For mobile optimization, you have to install a plugin AMP as we above discussed. For desktop optimization, there are some points like…
