Do You Love Me (Mark 14 & John 21)
Sermon Text
1. What's the worse question you've ever been asked? For me, it's "Do you love me?" I can't remember how many times I've been asked that in my life. First, it was from my beloved betrothed. She wanted to make sure that our parents had made a good choice for us. Then she became my wife and that question seemed to underlie everything that she asked from the day of our marriage forward. But, alright, I expected her to ask me the question. And it's really not her asking of the question that bugged me so much. It was the fact that a couple weeks after Jesus' resurrection He appeared to us after we had spent all night fishing and asked me that question not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES!! It distressed me, but I knew EXACTLY what He was driving at. He was pointing out my sins and offering me absolution. Absolution for my arrogance and my fear.
2. My arrogance seemed to always get in trouble. I was arrogant because I was one of the oldest, if not THE oldest, of the Apostles. So I thought I was the wisest and hadn't a problem showing that. I wanted to be an example to the younger disciples so that they had someone to look up to when Jesus wasn't around. We knew there was going to be a time when Jesus wasn't going to be there anymore. He had told us many times that last week before His death. There was that Tuesday in Bethany when we were having dinner with Simon the leper. Lazarus' sister Mary had come in and anointed Jesus. We weren't very happy with this expensive waste. There were other things that could have been done with the money used to buy it. But Jesus told us, "You will always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you will not always have Me" (Mark 14:7). Two days later, He said it again with the words we heard first tonight: "You will all fall away ... but after I am raised up, I will go before you to Galilee" (Mark 14:27-28). His words stung me. "You will all fall away." Everyone of us. No exceptions. I knew that there would be nothing that would keep me from being at Jesus' side through everything. Nothing was going to keep me away from Him. I told Him, "Even though they all fall away, I will not." He replied that I would deny Him three times before the rooster crowed the next morning. I wasn't going to be stopped that easily. I said, "If I must die with You, I will not deny You" (vv29-31). He left it at that. He really didn't have a choice because Judas and the gang had arrived. We had two swords with us (Luke 22:38). I grabbed one and cut off Malchus' ear. I was going to live up to my pledge to die with Jesus if that was how God had intended it to be. My arrogance was at an all-time high. I would have taken on the entire world single-handedly to show Jesus my loyalty. I was going to do it.
3. But that's not where the evening ended. And that's not where my sins ended. The soldiers came and arrested Jesus. Just as He prophecied, we scattered. We fled because we were afraid. Jesus had canceled my surprise attack by rebuking me for resulting to violence, saying, "All who take the sword will perish by the sword" (Matthew 27:52). Everyone left. John and I had gone in similar directions toward Jerusalem. The soldiers took Jesus into Annas' house for trial by the Sanhedrin. John went into the house because he had had some business dealings with Annas in the past. I waited outside. I wanted to know what was going to happen so that I could help the others, but I didn't dare come into the building. I was too scared to be recognized by one of the soldiers or chief priests that had come out to Gethsemane. After a while, John noticed that I hadn't come in with him. He instructed one of the servants to let me in. I stayed in the courtyard so I could keep my anonymity among the rest of those who were still out at this late hour. Then came the stares and the recognition. At first, it was just a servant girl who had recognized me from earlier in the week. I told her she must be mistaken. It was just once. I wasn't going to deny it two more times. There wasn't going to be another chance. I moved on. It was getting cold on the day so several had started a fire in the courtyard. I made my way over to warm myself after a while. The same servant girl came back. "This man was with Jesus," she told everyone around us. I told here, once again, that she had mistaken me for someone else. But there was one there who wouldn't accept it. He said, "Certainly you are one of them, for you are a Galilean" (Mark 14:70). That was the final straw. I couldn't take it anymore. I said, "If I am a follower of this Jesus, may God strike me dead on the spot!" You know what happened? He didn't. I had kinda wished He did because right after that came out of my mouth the rooster crowed twice. I remembered what Jesus had said to me just a few short hours earlier: "Before the cock crows twice, you will deny Me three times." I glanced toward the room where Jesus was standing trial and His eyes were locked on me. What else could I do? I ran from the courtyard crying because I had failed my Lord. I had such a simple task--don't deny Jesus. Don't be called out as a disciple. Maybe if I had just left and not gone into Jerusalem that night. Maybe if I had gone to Bethany or Bethphage where Jesus had friends. Maybe, maybe, maybe. What I should have done was stand up for Jesus. Stand up and take whatever might have come my way. What could it have been? I don't know. I'll never know because I didn't choose that route. I chose the route of fear and denial to cover myself so that very little bad could happen. All my bluster and arrogance and I turned out to be nothing but a coward.
4. Fast forward three weeks. We're on the beach after a night of fishing. We've eaten breakfast and Jesus pulled me aside. Once, twice, three times He asked me the same question. It stung at first, but then I began to understand what He was doing. He was forgiving me for each time I had denied Him! He was telling me that I still had a vital part in His kingdom! I was to be His undershepherd for the people who would come after us. I was to feed His sheep in the faith that had been instilled in each of us Apostles. That was our responsibility in the kingdom of God--to spread the Word of God to the four corners of the earth. Jesus had forgiven me so that I could also display that forgiveness as in the prayer that He taught us: "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." I had been reinstated to the ministry He had given to me from the very beginning of my following Him. But with that He gave me some disturbing news.
5. I answered Him the third time, "Lord, You know everything; You know that I love You" (John 21:17). He forgave me once again but added how I would glorify God and fulfill what I had arrogantly promised in the Garden of Gethsemane: "When you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go" (v18). I was sure that He was prophesying my death, a martyr's death, for the glory of God. I knew that Jesus wanted me to fulfill my arrogant pledge, whether I truly meant it or not at the time. I was going to die with Him, but the major part of that statement is that I would die WITH HIM. As St. Paul writes to the church in Rome, "We were therefore buried with Him through Baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead ... we too might walk in newness of life" (6:4). I would die with Jesus, just as I had promised, but I would also live with Him since He had also been raised from the dead. So I went proudly and boldly through my ministry throughout Judea and Galilee. I went to Rome and preached there for a short time before I was executed just like my Lord--crucified. I had no doubt that my death would be for the glory of God the Father through Jesus Christ because I no longer denied Him but openly proclaimed His message to anyone and everyone who would listen to me. May this Lententide, with its many guests in your midst, bring you to a place where you can also openly proclaim your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

Pence And Pompeo 'Ceasefire' Benefits Turks, Syria, And Russia, Screws Kurds
American negotiators are claiming a ceasefire in northern Syria. The Turks, Syrians, and Russians are the winners, the Kurds are the losers, and we look like schmucks.
After meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for four hours in Ankara, Vice-President Pence and Secretary of State Pompeo announced a ceasefire in the ongoing Turkish offensive in northern Syria that, if successful, will give the Turks essentially everything they want while completing what many have called the betrayal of the Syrian Kurds:
Turkey's president agreed to halt his military invasion of northeast Syria on Thursday, following hours of negotiations with two top Trump administration officials, to allow Kurdish fighters to leave the area and avoid, for now, an onslaught that had threatened to prolong Syria's civil war.
The cease-fire would last for five days, Vice President Mike Pence announced in Ankara after meeting with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey for more than four hours.
Mr. Pence cited a "strong relationship" between the United States and Turkey, two longtime NATO allies that had gridlocked over which terror threat in northeast Syria — the Islamic State or a Kurdish separatist group — posed an immediate problem.
"Today, we have agreed to a cease-fire in Syria," Mr. Pence said, noting that there would be a five-day pause in military operations while the United States facilitated the withdrawal of the Kurdish-led Y.P.G. militia from affected areas in the safe zone.
"Once that is completed, Turkey has agreed to a permanent cease-fire," Mr. Pence said.
More from The Washington Post:
Vice President Pence said Thursday that Turkey had agreed to a cease-fire in Syria, more than a week after the government of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan launched an offensive against Syrian Kurdish fighters who had previously allied with the United States.
Pence, speaking after hours of meetings in Ankara, the Turkish capital, with Erdogan and other Turkish officials, said that Turkey had agreed to pause its offensive for five days while the United States helped facilitate the withdrawal of the Kurdish fighters from a swath of northeastern Syria.
Following their withdrawal, Turkey's military operation would be "halted entirely," Pence said.
"Great news out of Turkey," President Trump wrote on Twitter, shortly before Pence's announcement. "Millions of lives will be saved!" he added.
Pence said that the Kurdish fighters would honor the deal struck between the United States and Turkey. "We have repeated assurances from them that they will be going out," he said, referring to the Syrian Kurdish fighters.
It's worth noting that the Turks are most emphatically not calling this a ceasefire:
Not surprisingly, President Trump is claiming a victory on Twitter:
Whether you call this agreement a "cease=fire" or not is immaterial, what matters are the details, and those details leave much to be desired. Essentially what is happening here is that the Turkish military will halt its current advance for five days. During that five day period, at least two things must happen.
First, the American forces that remain in northern Syria will withdraw completely from the region. This is something that President Trump had already agreed to, of course, but the rapid advance of the Turkish forces, combined with the speed with which Syrian forces have rushed in to fill the vacuum pursuant to their new agreement with the Kurds, have placed Americans in the middle of a potential clash between the Turks and the Syrians. This agreement gives the Americans time to complete their withdrawal. Oh, and one more thing, the agreement requires us to lift the very minimal sanctions that we imposed against Turkey in the wake of the invasion.
The second thing that must happen over the next five days is the complete withdrawal of Kurdish forces from the so-called "safe zone" declared by the Turks as part of their invasion. Exactly where the Kurds are supposed to go is unclear, but possibilities include the idea that they may withdraw into Iraqi territory where the Kurds have a nearly de facto autonomous region. Whatever the case, it means that the Syrian Kurds will be forced to give up th gains they have made over the past nearly ten years of civil war, and will get nothing in return for it except for the privilege of not getting killed by Turkish forces.
Looking at this in-depth it seems clear that, despite the fact that the President has already started taking a victory lap on Twitter, that this is hardly a victory for the United States or the President. First of all, Turkey has the land it wants and the Kurds are out of the way. Syria, Russia, and Iran have all seen their influence in Syria expand thanks to the American withdrawal. Finally, at least some portion of the ISIS prisoners that were being guarded by the Kurds are free and on the run for parts unknown. The Kurds, meanwhile, are being kicked out of the territory they gained during the war. This is not peace, it's surrender and more betrayal of the Kurds.

Bon Scott's Movember Campaign
Brisbane Strikers goalkeeper Bon Scott has revealed his personal motivations for participating in this year's Movember campaign.
Brisbane Strikers is supporting Bon Scott in his participation in Movember – the annual men's health awareness initiative launched in Australia in 2003.
Movember seeks to raise awareness and funding for men's mental health and suicide preventation, testicular cancer and prostate cancer through a number of initiatives.
The 22-year-old Scott has opted to grow a moustache throughout the month in his efforts to promote the cause.
Since 2003, Movember has raised over $700 million for men's health causes, research and treatment.
Scott is participating in Movember for the first time this year following the untimely passing of his uncle in September.
"My dad, Daniel, and I are getting involved to raise money for mental health," Scott explained.
"In September, my uncle Lewis took his own life and no words can adequately describe the heartbreak and pain my family is living through right now."
"I've always been aware of how important mental health is, but I never thought it would affect someone in my family in this way."
"Lewis was loved by so many people – he had an incredible wife, four amazing kids and a family that cared about him more than anything – and he had so many places of support he could've turned to."
"So, hopefully, by participating in Movember we are doing something that can help to stop this from happening to other fathers, brothers, uncles, sons and mates."
Scott added that he sees team sports environments as having a positive effect on men's mental health as well as their physical well-being.
"I think more can be done but, in my experience, I think football and sports in general are great tools for mental health," he explained.
"Being a part of a team gives you a sense of community and someone to talk to if you need – whether it is a teammate, a coach, a physio or whoever in that environment."
"I am grateful to Brisbane Strikers for helping me spread the word about our Movember participation to more people and help raise awareness of men's health issues."
Scott's progress in growing his moustache will be chronicled on Brisbane Strikers' social media channels throughout the month of November, along with links to information on the Movember movement.
"I've only just grown a beard so I'm interested to see how dodgy my 'mo' is going to look," Scott said.
If you or someone you know needs support, help can be found at Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 224 636.
More information about Movember can be found at their website.

This article features St. Lawrence University's Adirondack Semester, a small program, with enrollment limited to twelve students. The participants of the program are composed of a small group of students with shared interests and serious purpose, living harmoniously and mostly free from the temptations and distractions of the larger world, learning from senior scholars at the same time that they tutor one another. Though the courses reinforce one another, experience itself unites the elements of the program. The most important part of that experience is living in a small, close-knit community with a materially simple lifestyle that is in close contact with nature. The authors describe the effects of the program and how it brings students close to nature.

Project Updates
Here we present updates on significant PolyUrbanWaters project activities and milestones. We are also on social media:
21 December 2019
Developing a Market for Polycentric Wastewater Treatment Solutions: First Findings from AIT Study
The Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Bangkok, has begun conducting a study on the drivers of market development for polycentric wastewater treatment solutions in Thailand. The aim is to foster a comprehensive understanding of how an enabling regulatory environment can support substantial engagement of the private sector, even in less wealthy neighborhoods. First findings show that innovative incentive schemes are crucial for overcoming deficiencies in public structures and for mobilizing private-sector engagement to establish a water-sensitive infrastructure that contributes to inclusiveness in Thai society.
15 December 2019
Localizing National SDG Policy in Cambodia: CIUS Study to Lay Groundwork for Pilot Activities
The Cambodian Institute of Urban Studies (CIUS) has begun elaborating a study to explore the evolving context of national SDG policy in Cambodia in water/urban development and the challenges of breaking these down at the local level. The study encompasses governance structures, mandates and financial schemes as well as the capacities of public structures, the private sector and civil society. Existing policies, tools and potential instruments for establishing water-sensitive infrastructure will be identified. The study is meant to situate upcoming PolyUrbanWaters pilot activities in Kratie within a national context.
4 December 2019
Water-Sensitive Cities in Vietnam: Assessing Opportunities & Constraints
As a PolyUrbanWaters project partner, the Vietnam Academy for Water Resources (VAWR) has begun conducting an assessment of the opportunities and constraints that local government structures face in supporting the development of water-sensitive cities. In addition to identifying entry points for the localization of SDGs in the urban water sector, the study will contribute to the specification of the "Polycentric approaches to the management of urban waters" concept in Vietnam.
15 November 2019
Contextual Studies in Sleman, Indonesia: Defining the Importance of Water
During the second PolyUrbanWaters mission in Sleman, project partners from Universitas Gadjah Mada, Kota Kita, TU Berlin and TH Köln carryied out contextual studies in Sleman's urban and peri-urban areas. The focus was on defining the importance of water in a city along with its challenges and understanding in the community.
11 November 2019
Second Mission in Sam Neua, Laos: Assessing the Complexities of a Green City Vision
During the second PolyUrbanWaters mission in Sam Neua, project partners from TH Köln, BORDA and the City of Bremen participated in constructive brainstorming sessions with local decision makers and visited potential sites for PolyUrbanWaters implementation. The focus of the project team was to assess the complex interconnections between the green city vision of Sam Neua and the expected socio-economic, environmental and climatic changes in the region.
7 November 2019
Scoping Workshops and Studies in Kratie, Cambodia
During kick-off workshops in Kratie, the PolyUrbanWaters team together with partner consortia and local stakeholders conducted contextual studies and defined potential local sites for implementation of polycentric approaches to urban water management. The aim: localizing multifunctional, livable public spaces, with their characteristic and various challenges in urban transformation.
29 October 2019
Assessment in Kratié (Cambodia) and Second Mission to Sam Neua (Laos) and Sleman (Indonesia)
In the November–December 2019 mission, the PolyUrbanWaters team will visit project sites in each city to conduct scoping workshops and contextual studies, with the aim of defining partner consortia and local sites for implementation of polycentric approaches to urban water management. Particular points for discussion and evaluation will be the topic of water in the city and options for each city to become water-sensitive and climate change-resilient. The field work will serve to define key transformation challenges that are relevant for the development of fast-growing, peri-urban areas, highlighting possible synergies and co-benefits between water and urban development issues. In addition, the project team will conduct stakeholder and process analyses to identify the main actors (including local communities) for involvement in the project implementation.
19 October 2019
Launch of Penang Platform for Sustainable Urbanization
Following the agreements made at the coordination meeting with UNESCAP in September 2019, PolyUrbanWaters contributed to the launch of the Penang Platform for Sustainable Urbanization. The aim is to integrate "water" much more in inter-sectorial city planning than is currently the practice, with the development and implementation of innovative instruments for financing water-sensitive cities as a key element in the transformation to sustainable urban areas.
15 September 2019
Kick-Off of PolyUrbanWaters in Vientiane and Sam Neua, Laos
PolyUrbanWaters was launched in Laos from 9-13 September 2019. The Laos Department of Housing and Urban Planning underlined the need to spur new approaches to ensure effective provision of water-related public services and to support water-sensitive urban development in Laos' small and medium-sized towns. The province and city administrations welcomed PolyUrbanWaters for its translation of the "Green, clean, beautiful and peaceful Sam Neua" policy in the area of managing urban waters. Visits to sites such as the new urban development area, the drinking water reservoirs, the municipal waste landfill and pilot sites for community based sanitation contributed to a first rapid assessment of water-related challenges in Sam Neua.
9 September 2019
Coordination Meeting with United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific
At a meeting in Bangkok at 6 September 2019, UNESCAP and a delegation from PolyUrbanWaters identified fields of cooperation. It was agreed that PolyUrbanWater will support the implementation of the Penang Platform for Sustainable Urbanization by continuously feeding project-developed tools (integrated urban planning, water sensitive urban development, financial tools) into this regional process and by facilitating the exchange of good practices between cities.
5 September 2019
Kick-Off of PolyUrbanWaters in Sleman, Indonesia
The PolyUrbanWaters Project officially started with kick-off workshop and visits in Sleman, Indonesia from 2-4 September 2019. Project partners, local municipalities and communities were involved in several working sessions, presentations, introductions and networking events. As part of the numerous activities in Sleman Regency, the project team conducted a wide range of field visits. These include the Kalibuntung riverside area in the Karangwaru district of Yogyakarta City, the IPA Gamping clean water treatment plant, the community-based drinking water provider PAMDES Tirtomakmur Kadirojo, the Embung Tambakboyo water retention basin, the IPLT Tinjon Madurejo sludge treatment plant, and the community-based water management organization OPA (Organisasi Pengelola Air) Tirtomulyo. Exchanges with representatives of the local government and the introduction of the PolyUrbanWaters project were the main focus of the workshop.
February 2018
PolyUrbanWaters at World Urban Forum 9 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
At WUF 9, held 8-17 February 2018, the outcome of the PolyUrbanWaters definition phase was discussed during a workshop and presented at two side events: one as part of the official program and one at the Federal Government of Germany's booth. In the workshop, a first approach on strategic SDG planning was organized with the cities of Bac Ninh (Vietnam), Kratié (Cambodia), Leh (India), Sleman (Indonesia) and South Tangerang (Indonesia). In the participating cities and districts, water management issues are of central importance and reflect location-specific challenges. The dynamics of urban development make supply gaps and overuse of natural resources increasingly clear. Pollution of groundwater bodies is accompanied by problems such as increasing vulnerability to heavy rainfall events brought about by climate change. WUF 9 workshop participants agreed that water is a key to creating livable and inclusive cities. Polycentric approaches for the management of urban waters may contribute to an overall change of mindset in decision making that supports the localization of the SDGs.

CJ Ramone made his name as a member of the greatest punk band of all time. Nearly 25 years after that experience, it'd be understandable if CJ now spent his days resting on his legacy. However, since 1996 he has continued to make music. CJ Ramone's debut album 'Reconquista' was unleashed unto the world in 2012, followed by Fat Wreck Chords debut 'Last Chance to Dance', and 'American Beauty' in 2014 and 2017 respectively. CJ celebrates his continued undiminishing love of music with the release of his newest (and strongest) album, aptly titled 'The Holy Spell'. The album is full of fist-pumping punk, but not limited to it.

The old city of Fez is a Medieval world treasure and UNESCO World Heritage Site. As you walk through the maze of streets in the Medina you are literally walking through 1,300 years of Moroccan heritage. It is a spectacular medina where time seems to have stood still and photographs beckon around every corner. You will see veiled women and laughing children, donkeys pulling carts and vendors carrying huge mounds of bread on trays above their heads.
It is a maze of intricate laneways. Carpet makers, manual loom makers and merchant palaces are found within. Photograph the intricate carved stucco walls, arches and cornices. Zoom in on the exquisite mosaics that cover Nejjarne Fountain and visit the Kairaouine Mosque. Enjoy the souk were merchants sell mounds of colourful spices, carpets, silks and leather goods and visit the legendary tanneries were the city's renowned leather is made with sweat and knowledge passed down generations.
Erg Chebbi Dunes in Merzouga
You cannot visit Morocco and not visit the magical and expansive orange-coloured dunes in Merzouga. The light created by this environment, the bright contrast of sky and land is amazing making it a fantastic place for photography.
For those who wish, you will spend the night in a traditional nomad camp in the middle of the dunes. The tour is planned such that you will ride your camels across the dunes when the sun is setting. The changing shades of orange as the sun sets, highlighted with the long thin shadows of the camels make beautiful photography. Watching sunrise over the Sahara is another unforgettable experience.
Valleys, Gorges and Kasbahs
Stark, wild and differing landscapes unfold on your way from Fez to Marrakech. On route we transverse the mountainous terrain contrasted with mountains, lush oases, desert, valley and gorges and in the right season even snow!
A drive along the 'Valley of the Thousand Kasbahs' will take us through stony desert landscapes with many villages and Kasbahs. You will see fantastic rock formations in the Dades gorge. This gorge has been carved away for millennia by the dades river wearing away at the rocks. Then there is the Todra gorge, Morocco's most famous canyon.
All along en route you will come across villages and watch the people at work in their fields or going on with their daily life. Most people are Berbers, the people indigenous to North Africa before the colonization of the Arabs. The nomadic Berbers living in the remote mountains have retained their identity and culture through centuries of outside influence, a culture that has changed little in centuries. En route, you will have the unique opportunity to meet Berbers who make their home in the caves of these mountains and have tea with them.
On the way to Marrakech we will pass through the quiet city of Quarzazate and visit one of the most exotic and best-preserved Kasbahs in the whole Atlas region, Ait Benhaddou a UNESCO world heritage site. The Kasbah is one of the finest examples of pre-saharan architecture of Morocco.
The old-part of Marrakech is much like it was centuries ago, packed with craftsmen, street vendors and vibrant clashes of colour. You will feel an incredible sense of old world magic as you walk through the ancient streets of Marrakech. The city is a photographer's paradise that is best expressed in person through your lens.
Capture the colourful chaos of Djemma el Fna Square, where there are great photographic opportunities around every corner, from snake charmers and magicians to cooks and musicians. Venture through the souks which are an amazing labyrinth of covered markets mixed with tradesmen practicing their ancient skills. Highlights of the souks are metal workers, wool dyers and wood carvers. Visit the Ben Youssef Madrasa a beautiful example of traditional Moroccan architecture. The tile mosaics and intricate carvings are exquisite.
Hidden deep within the Rif Mountains Northwest ofMorocco is a small, quiet city called Chefchaouen also known as the blue city as it is covered in all shades of blue paint. An extremely photogenic Medina. In the Medina people sell all vegetables and fruits amid the narrow cobbled alleyways of blue washed walls and doors. Only jalabas (their traditional dress) and cobblestones to be seen. A gem of a place. Steep and narrow streets, small squares, ornate fountains and houses with elaborately decorated doorways and red tile roofs. Chefchaoen offers many native handicrafts that are not available elsewhere in Morocco such as wool garments and woven blankets.
Nestled between the rugged Moroccan landscape and the sea is the mesmerizing whitewashed fishing village of Essaouira. It is a beautiful mix of French and Moroccan influences with a distinct atmosphere of Moroccan spices, tiny streets, colours, art and music. You will find plenty of chances to exercise your camera shutter and then relax for a hearty lunch of fish.

can't believe it's the last day!
Curriculum Vitae
Work History:
After many part time jobs in pubs, I worked in a patent office, drafting patents and trade marks. Unluckily, I lost my job, but then worked for my local county council in the call centre, as a PA, in legal services and in data protection for Social Care. As an engineer, this is my first job, I've worked on EarthCARE, Lisa Pathfinder, Solar Orbiter and my current project is Plato.
Current Job:
Spacecraft Thermal Engineer
Airbus Defence and Space
My Work
Not too hot, not too cold, just right
Read more
There are two main reasons to keep spacecraft at the right tempeterature:
so that everything works as best it can, e.g. If you want to take a picture, batteries don't opperate well below -10 degrees C, so you need to keep them above that.
to keep everything pointing correctly. If you cool a metal, it contracts, if you heat it, it expands, having both hot and cold areas means different parts of the structure have moved different amounts, putting, for example, a telescope on those points, as temperatures change where the telescope points changes.
In my job, I create computer models to help understand how heat moves around a spacecraft and how a spacecraft interacts thermally with its environment. I then work to apply that knowledge to the points above.
I work with lots of different disciples, to understand the materials we use, where power is applied, how much electricity I can use for heaters, what orbit the spacecraft will be in, how much fuel is used at each stage of a mission (amongst everything else!)
My Typical Day: Working with others and mostly on a computer
Read more
As I create computer models, most of my time is spent creating a model of the spacecraft I am currently working on. To make sure I create an accurate model, I work with people from all disciplines. From them I will find out lots of information I can use in model. Depending on what I want to find out, I may or may not use all that information – there are so many different things going on in a spacecraft, it would take too long to simulate everything, so I work out what is important and how I am going to represent that on my model.
Of course, when I have done all this work, I also write reports, so what we have learnt is not lost and we can be sure that everything is working as best it can.
What I'd do with the money
Create a "build a satellite" activity
Read more
I want to create a assembly satellite. It would be based on a "typical" rectangular prism, with typical electronics boxes to be added to that. Where the boxes are located on the various walls, what electrical cabling is needed, what surface finish (thermal engineering part) would have to be considered. Ideally, there would be a choice of different mission styles: telecommunications, Earth observations and telescope style (like Gaia), all requiring different things from the similar structure but all using the same basic principles. Worksheets would be developed to go with it, that would be suitable for a range of different abilities.
My Interview
How would you describe yourself in 3 words?
Quirky, silly, northern
What's the best thing you've done in your career?
Seeing the project I've been working on being built
What did you want to be after you left school?
I had no idea, I was happy to see what happened next
Were you ever in trouble at school?
For not putting in enough effort at games/ PE.
If you weren't doing this job, what would you choose instead?
Some kind of clockmaker
Who is your favourite singer or band?
I am currently really liking Bellowhead
What's your favourite food?
All of it! Although it's probably cheese
What is the most fun thing you've done?
Having a day out with my best friend, in our homemade dresses (making the dresses was awesome too)
Tell us a joke.
What's the fastest drink? Milk, because it's "past-your-eyes" (sorry)

For you who are still curious about the specifications and reviews of the apple macbook air new release. This thing is a bit complicated. Because Apple is successively and productively released the latest MacBook series this year. In 2018, Apple released an update for MacBook Air. The laptop comes with a fresher design, a keyboard that is claimed to be more reliable, and a TouchID security system, even without TouchBar. The TouchBar component is only present specifically for the MacBook Pro.
Many are curious about the discussions issued by Apple, the macbook edition is one of the many targeted products. Moreover, his claim that the latest macbook products have prices that are more fitting in the pocket. Is it true?…
How about 2019? Apple secretly released the apple macbook air new release 2019 update. It claimed to be a secret because Apple did not hold a large-scale release event. But only offers this MacBook Air 2019 on the official website. Interestingly, the MacBook Air 2019 is offered at a cheaper price than last year's generation.
So this time we will talk about the edition of apple macbook air new release 2019 and we will see the pros and cons.
Pros :
1. Screen update
Updates made by Apple for the apple macbook air new release 2019 are quite minimal. One thing that stands out the most, the MacBook Air 2019 screen is equipped with Retina display technology, complete with TrueTone. TrueTone technology will adjust brightness and color according to the environment. For example, if the environment is dark, the colors shown will be more appropriate for your eyes.
2. Design improvement
The design of apple macbook air new release is slightly different from the previous edition, with a sleeker model. But this is actually not very significant, although there are changes in the body thickness of this macbook. This makes it thinner and lighter compared to the previous edition in 2018. So it is easy to carry and use.
Cons :
1. Slower operating system
The apple macbook air new release 2019 still comes with 128 GB and 256 GB storage options. Unfortunately, according to some reviewers, the SSD speed from the 2019 version is not as fast as the 2018 version. Yes, in other words, the SSD read/write speed on the MacBook Pro 2019 is not as fast as the 2018 version. The choice of a slower SSD may be intended to make the price of the MacBook Air 2019 cheaper.
2. There are no significant updates
the specifications of the apple macbook air new release 2019 have not changed at all from the previous generation. The processor is still using the 8th generation Intel Processor, with dual-core 1.6 GHz (capable of Turbo Boost up to 3.6 GHz). Then the RAM capacity is also still 8 gigabytes. Memory capacity, then the port with thunderbolt type, and also the touch trackpad is still the same as the 2018 edition.
Those are some specifications and a brief review of apple macbook air new release 2019.

Martyn Dixon is a site manager working for Kier Regional Building on phase 2 of Bartholomew School in Eynsham, Oxfordshire. Here, he talks about how he discovered Kier and how, against the odds, construction provided him with the stability he needed to launch a successful career.
"Finding construction changed my life. I never enjoyed school and was an awful student. Kier was very engaged with my secondary school and came in regularly to talk about opportunities in the interview, host mock interviews and offer work experience. The idea of having a job that meant I didn't need to sit at my desk all day really interested me and so, I got in touch with Kier to do my work experience placement in year 10.
When I was finding my personal life difficult, I got worse at school. In my final year, I was given the opportunity to do extended work experience at Kier where I worked on site one day a week. It was great to keep me engaged with my studies and during this period, I worked with a lot of different people including contract managers, site managers and surveyors; getting all sorts of experience in different roles in construction.
When I left school, I went into carpentry, learning a trade. After this, I worked as a gateman and labourer for Kier before starting the team leader apprenticeship. For the first time, I moved away from home in Cheltenham and stayed in Bircham Newton, a village in Norfolk, to undertake block weeks at college.
If anyone had told me when I was at school that I would go from being a labourer, to doing an apprenticeship and an apprenticeship degree, to becoming a site manager at 26, I'd have laughed at them. I am so proud of how far I've come, there aren't many people who have reached this level and managed the range of projects that I have at my age; Kier has given me some great experiences and opportunities.
Whilst being at Kier, I have been keen to give back to the communities we work in. During my time at Coney Hill Primary School I wanted to work with them to raise money and did this through making go-karts for the pupils. I found a go-kart flat pack idea online and cut timber into an IKEA-style kit and, with the children helping, we built three go-karts and then they took them and decorated them. We built a track in the school grounds and raced the go-karts before selling them at a school auction to find the pupils' next project, involving upcycling items they'd found at a car boot sale. This project helped spark the pupil's passion for building and engineering.
I built a great relationship with Coney Hill Primary School during this time. They held a big assembly for us, and it was really humbling for them to go out of their way to thank us for all the work we've done. It feels really good to know that we left a positive legacy at the school.
I want to offer others the same opportunities I was given; when I was doing the extended work experience at school, I said to our general works contracts manager Jeff Bye that I would never be able to repay him for everything he'd done for me and all the time he'd invested. He then said to me, of course you can, you can inspire and help others as we've done for you nd I feel so grateful that I'm able to do this now. I go to a lot of assemblies and careers events, talking to people who might not be getting on well at school and showing them that there are opportunities to get on and have a carer they will enjoy. Every Thursday, I have a session with pupils in year 8 and 9 doing construction-related activities; it's amazing to see how they grow in confidence and get more interested as the weeks go by.
I will never be able to say it enough, but every day I thank Kier and the people working here for the opportunities I've had. I feel so lucky to be in the position I'm in and to have been given the opportunities I have, and I realise my life could have gone a very different way had it not been for finding a career in construction."

Have your ever surprised a young child with something they have wanted their "whole life"? If you have, you have probably witnessed pure, unsurpassed joy. In fact for many children, childhood is a time filled with joy. As time passes however, the joy seems to slowly seep out of life for many people and is replaced by what the French call ennui – fancy boredom.
The Christian life for many has a similar trajectory. The moments after a person puts on Christ in baptism and becomes a Christian are often very joyful. Soon the monotony of life intrudes though and Christianity can begin looking boring or worse yet, restrictive.
I want to encourage you to not only live a joyful Christian life, but help your children find and understand the joy in living a godly, active Christian life. There are a lot of things Christians can be joyful about, but in case you were puzzling what to share with your kids about joy and God, here are some of my favorites:

Red Sox pitching coach Juan Nieves has his theory on needing an ace
It's been a healthy debate throughout the offseason regarding if the Red Sox truly need a defined ace heading into 2015. But shouldn't the most important voice on the matter come from the man who will be charged with guiding the starting staff through the season, with or without that No. 1 guy? Talking on the phone from his home in North Carolina, Red Sox pitching coach Juan Nieves weighed in on what has become one of this winter's weightiest matters. "Other than that first turn through the rotation, whomever goes out there every fifth day, I'm a firm believer, that's my ace," Nieves said. "I also think team generally win without having five aces, but if you have three or four pitchers pitch like a one or a two for two or three months and pitch like a three for the rest of the year, that pitcher is going to win a lot of games. And when that five pitches like a three and gives you some deep innings and some eight-inning outings, and even pitches like a strong No. 2 for a few months, that's when you see teams winning and never go in slumps. I think overall I'm a firm believer that my five guys in the rotation are my five aces. Whomever is out there for me is my ace." Nieves' philosophy has merit, especially considering it was born from what the Red Sox starters accomplished during their World Series run of 2013. While Jon Lester was ultimately identified as the team's no-hold's-barred ace, it would have been difficult to designate him such on Day 1. He was coming off a 2012 season which encompassed a 4.82 ERA. The guy who ended up as the staff's No. 2, John Lackey, hadn't even pitched the year before. Clay Buchholz, who pitched in the No. 2 spot to being the season, had totaled a 4.56 ERA in '12. And, when it all said and done, the inconsistencies of Ryan Dempster and Felix Doubront ultimately forced the Sox go out and get Jake Peavy at the non-waiver trade deadline. But, to Nieves' point, what worked for that group in '13 was that each pitcher went on at least one top-of-the-rotation-type run during that season. Before his injury, Buchholz began the season with a 9-0 mark and 1.71 ERA over 12 starts (in which the Red Sox went 11-1). Doubront rattled off 15 starts in the heart of the season in which he accumulated a 2.55 ERA, while averaging 6 1/3 innings per outing. Dempster managed a pair of runs, one coming to start the '13 season in which he carried a 2.93 ERA over his first seven starts. The other stretching in June and July when he managed a 3.86 ERA over 11 outings, during which the Red Sox went 7-4. Of course, while it is important to find such stretches from those considered in the middle of on the back end of one's rotation, it is equally urgent to get a couple of pitchers who can sustain such excellence for even longer period of time. In that case, that's where Lester and Lackey came in. So, does this group have what it takes to make Nieves' way of thinking hold up? As previously mentioned, Buchholz has gone down this path before. It is also easy to find a similar stretch of dominance from Justin Masterson (although he only went more than two starts in between allowing five or more runs once in '14, and that was a three-start period). Joe Kelly experienced success similar to Buchholz in '13, totaling a 9-3 mark with a 2.28 ERA as a starter in 15 outings. And last season, Rick Porcello's first three months included an 11-4 record and 3.12 ERA in 16 starts. There is also obvious hope when it comes to Wade Miley, as well, with the lefty finishing off a subpar '14 with a 3.43 ERA in his last nine starts. His best stretch? Probably a two-month period in which he managed a 1.96 ERA over 10 starts in the middle of '13. So, if Nieves' theory holds up, there is hope for this current group of Red Sox starters. Now it's just the question of if they can find enough stretches of ace-level pitching from this bunch.
