One of my favourite things about the weddings we share on Love My Dress, lovely readers, is how our couples make their day unique; filled with personal decor touches, adding special poems for their ceremony, or including a lost loved one as part of their attire. For today's couple, it was the location that held a special meaning for them. So as the Christmas festive season gears up, let's continue the party vibe and head on over the seas and board a boat in amazing Amsterdam; yes, you read that correctly!
Kaz, a Marketing Manager, and Stu, a Design Director, tied the knot on a Dutch sailing barge owned by Remco Voorneveld of Lounge Klipper on Saturday 1st August 2015. I love their little meeting story – and the years they spent in Amsterdam sparked the idea for where to hold their nuptials.
"The inspiration and idea for the wedding came from enjoying these years living in Amsterdam and partying on boats on the canals. We wanted to bring our family and friends to a country that was not our birth country, but has been our home for a very long time."

"We also knew the weather would be better in Amsterdam than if we were to get married in our home country of Scotland. In fact, we had sunshine, warm weather and a blue moon."
Kaz's incredible 'Swinging Papillon' dress from the Papillon D'Amour collection by German designer Kaviar Gauche was found at the Berlin flagship store. I am speechless! This floaty design, featuring exquisite embroidered butterflies, is so very beautiful.
"As the wedding was on a sailing barge, I felt that a floor-length dress would not be appropriate. I loved the fact that the dress is knee-length, but still has drama. I can honestly say that it is the most unusual wedding dress I have ever seen, but was perfect for our very non-traditional wedding."
"We have just moved to Portland, USA and before departure we wanted to give our friends and family one last amazing party in the Netherlands and so we decided to marry on a traditional Dutch sailing barge called 'Umoja' (a Swahili word which means "unity"). The wedding ceremony and evening party took place on the boat. The boat was harboured in a small fishing village called Monnickendam, which is just outside Amsterdam. The whole wedding weekend took place in this village.
Kaz added a vintage birdcage veil from ebay, a fabulous pair of Jimmy Choo peep-toe pumps, a spray of 'Stella' by Stella McCartney and accessorised with black-and-cream-striped Armani sunglasses, with make-up by Amber Weijers. She then changed into comfy shoes in the evening and added a very groovy hat, with a touch of tartan, giving the outfit a totally 1960's vibe.
"In the evening I changed into a flat version of the daytime shoe – Jimmy Choo leather ballerinas – and I wore a white 1960's style cap hat with a flash of McArthur tartan. McArthur is my husband's surname (now my surname) and was made for me by a milliner from my hometown of Edinburgh."
The flowers were designed to go with the family tartan – what a unique idea and so very effective.
"We wanted the flowers to complement the Stu's family tartan. The McArthur tartan is dark green, yellow and black. We wanted to bring in the colour purple, as the male members from my side of the family wore purple, black and grey-coloured tartan. The thistle flower, the emblem of the Scottish nation, tied in the purple colour nicely. The florist we used, Sas Bloemiste, is in the neighbouring village of Edam."
"My father gave me away on the boat. All guests were on the boat and he walked me through the village to the boat where everyone was waiting for us.
"We first met February 2001 at a fashion party in London. We spoke briefly and then I left the party, never to be seen again! Almost one year later, we met again on a Sunday morning at a Duffer of St George sample sale. Within a second of seeing each other again, we fell in love. Stu's work took us to Amsterdam, where we lived for thirteen years. We grew up together, our love grew stronger and we have two amazing children.
We planned the wedding in only eight weeks. We had seventy guests, a bag piper, a Scottish ceilidh dance band, a London-based wedding photographer, the ship's crew and a gang of friends who helped decorate the boat the day before."
The wedding ceremony was conducted by a professional storyteller who wrote a Scottish fairytale that was symbolic to us and our relationship. He play-acted his story to our guests. Then Stu and I exchanged our vows and then gave each other rings by Stefan Witjes Edelsmid, a local Dutch designer. This is the beginning of the storyteller's fairytale about our relationship:
'Once there was a fisherman called Stuart Alan. He wasn't rich, but his grandma had said to him many times: "Better born lucky than rich". Stuart strongly believed these words. But he didn't feel very lucky, since he was living alone. He had no soul mate. One night he was lying in his bed, wide awake. He couldn't sleep and decided to make a stroll on the beach near his village. As Stuart walked towards the sea he heard some laughter and jolliness. Was there a beach party going on? Indeed! A group of youngsters were dancing and singing in the moonlight.'"
"The evening dinner was a BBQ at a very famous Michelin star restaurant in Monnickendam called The Posthoorn. We went for informal eating (no seating plan and tables in the garden part of the restaurant) but we still wanted high-end, quality food and the type of service we enjoy.
All seventy guests spent the weekend in the village of Monnickendam; staying in various types of accommodation from the four-star Posthoorn hotel, B&B's, friend's houses and twelve guests slept on a large sailing barge that we hired. The evening party was out on the lake called the IJmeer. We had a speedboat on hand to take guests back to the mainland.
Due to the fact we were on a boat, we decided to have a tower of cupcakes from Sjoerds Keuken as our wedding cake. It's quirky, easy to eat and just fitted with the fun, party feeling we created for the day.
The couple was so happy with the outcome of their candid shots by Taran from Taran Wilkhu Photography.
"We decided to book Taran to be our wedding photographer because we liked his unique photography style. He showed us images from past weddings and we loved the fact that he took 'reportage, candid' shots as opposed to just portraits. We wanted a photographer to capture in their shots the party atmosphere of our wedding on a dutch sailing barge and Taran had the credentials to do this job."
"Taran very quickly became an integral part of the wedding, turning it into a pleasurable and fun experience and we think this comes through in the images he created. The shots and the composition are amazing. He managed to capture the whole wedding and more; some of the evening activities he captured were ones we didn't even know had happened! We are thrilled to have the story of our wedding captured on camera and will treasure our wedding photographs forever."
Now, it's not a Scottish wedding unless there are tartan kilts and sporrans, and Stu and all of his groomsmen and male members of the family were kitted out in the full attire.
"Stu and all of the male family members and groomsmen wore traditional Scottish highland clothing, which consists of a tartan kilt, a sporran, kilt socks, kilt flashes, kilt belt, ghillie brougues, clan crest kilt pin, kilt jacket and waistcoat.
Stu added Herve Domar glasses that were purchased from a shop in Amsterdam called Nesoptiek – the clip-on sunglasses are also from the same shop."
The bride chose not to have bridesmaids; instead, her daughter and niece were flower girls. And her son's outfit comprised tartan trousers and a matching bowtie … too cute!
"My three-year-old daughter Beatrix and fifteen-year-old niece Charlotte were my flower girls. Beatrix wore a very similar dress to me – white, knee length and covered in white fabric butterflies, together with a floral handmade headband. Charlotte wore a cream knee length dress that she selected herself and a floral cuff. My one-year-old son wore tartan trousers with a matching bowtie from a Scottish cashmere company called Johnstons of Elgin and was styled by his Auntie Fiona, who works there."
"For us, one of the highlights of the day was doing the 'wedding march' around the village with Alex the Piper and all our guests after the ceremony. The whole village came out to see us, taking pictures, waving, and joining in the march. It was a magical moment and a very special way to announce and celebrate that we had just got married; like church bells ringing when the married couple leave the church after a traditional wedding ceremony."
Kaz was particularly keen to have a ceilidh band for her big day and the hired band kept everyone dancing and entertained.
"I have always wanted traditional Scottish music at my wedding. I had to do it. We hired Òr Ceilidh Band from Edinburgh – a three-piece band that played traditional Scottish folk music on the outside deck as sunset and the blue moon rose. When it became dark, we headed to the lower deck for a full-on ceilidh dance, and whilst we didn't have a particular first dance, Stu and I were first on the dance floor."
"Stu designed the wedding invite and order of the day. We wanted the wedding to be informal and so we had no formal seating, no place cards or menus.
We decorated the boat with hessian fabric, tartan fabric, white paper lanterns, and large and small vases of flowers. The boat lit up at nighttime with bulbs everywhere.
My husband is from the Island of Arran, a small island of the West Coast of Scotland. Our wedding favour was a gift bag containing bath and body gifts from Arran Aromatics."
I must share with you these lovely words from the beautiful bride about this beautiful blog. Thank you Kaz!
"I love the fact that most of the weddings you feature are in a lot of cases weddings that one would consider to be a non-traditional wedding. Stuart and I are of an age where we have been to a lot of weddings over the years. For us, we wanted to give our family a unique wedding. We wanted our guests to have loads of fun. Your blog helps give people the vision to do these types of weddings and I personally think that is a great thing."
Words of Wedded Wisdom
"Follow your own dreams and your own ideas. Don't listen or overly worry about what others think you should do on your wedding day. A lot of our guests wanted us to have a wedding in a church in Scotland. We almost did. We are now glad that we did it our way. The wedding was a massive reflection on our personality and for that reason the wedding worked, the day went smoothly and everyone had an absolutely wonderful day."
What an utterly delightful wedding Kaz and Stu and thank you so much for sharing your day with us. As a lover of butterflies, I'm in total awe of your beautiful dress Kaz and your addition of the cap with a flash of tartan and flats for the evening is genius! And special thanks to Taran from Taran Wilkhu Photography for sharing these picturesque images and capturing the happy couple's day so wonderfully.
If Kaz and Stu have inspired you to hold your wedding overseas, be sure to see here for more destination weddings we've previously featured.
Wishing you all a fantastic rest of week … I'm off to start my Christmas shopping, eeek!

'Cold-Blooded Murder': Death Of 13-Year-Old Cheerleader Tristyn Bailey Ruled A Homicide
The cause of death of Tristyn Bailey, the 13-year-old cheerleader who went missing and was later found dead in St. Johns County, Fla., has been determined.
The St. Johns County Sheriff's office announced Tuesday, May 11 that Bailey died of "force trauma by stabbing" and the medical examiner has ruled her death as a homicide.
In an interview with local news outlet News4Jax, Sheriff Robert Hardwick told the outlet, "This is a cold-blooded murder of a 13-year-old young girl who did not deserve to die."
"That being said, I don't wanna mention the number of times [Tristyn was stabbed], but it is horrific. It is horrible," Hardwick said. "And the word accident is nowhere involved in this case."
"We will continue to investigate this case fully and will begin transitioning this case to the State's Attorney Office," the sheriff's office said in a statement.
The suspect in Bailey's death is a 14-year-old boy who was arrested last week. The teen suspect is currently being held on one count of second degree murder.
"That's actually a decision we made collectively with the State Attorney's Office," Hardwick stated. "We can always increase the charge."
The relationship between Bailey and the suspect has not yet been determined, but the two did attend Patriot Academy together, a public school that is approximately about a mile from where the teen went missing, PEOPLE reported.
"We're going to look at every aspect, every crime that's out there. Our guys and girls are going to leave no stone unturned," Hardwick said.
As of now, the teen boy is not being charged as an adult, but the judge has ordered for the teen to be held in juvenile custody for at least 21 days during the hearing that took place Tuesday via Zoom.
A GoFundMe fund was made to support the cheerleader's parents. The fund currently has almost $6,000 over their $20,000 goal.

Desperate Times, Magical Tape Job
Posted by: Devin Glage
No matter how committed you are to preventative hand care, if you enroll in a CrossFit competition where you have to do 50 pull-ups in the morning and 35 bar muscle up in the fourth workout of the day, your hands are going to suffer a serious beating.
This is exactly what happened to my teammate last weekend...
The best gloves for CrossFit are no gloves at all. Sissy.
Posted by: Devin Glage
Let's be honest.
Your grandfather didn't need gloves while he worked long hours in the field or factory doing manual labour that would crush even the toughest of the so called "athletes" of today.
His hands were made of hard earned leather.
He didn't "workout", he worked. Period.
Many of us train for the coveted "work capacity", but who among us would have had the work ethic to stand among the giants that were our forefathers?
RIPT: Hand-in-Hand with sport - Olympic Weightlifting
Posted by: Devin Glage
Take Care of Your Thumbs!
That's the advice Rachel Siemens had to offer when we asked her how a CrossFit athlete turned Olympic weightlifter (who recently competed at her first international weightlifting competition in Russia) should take care of their hands.
Although pull-ups and toes-to-bars are harder on her hands than Olympic weightlifting is, lifting barbells still causes her some problems from time to time.
"My hands are pretty much one giant callous. The boys love that, right?" she joked.
Sometimes her hands get specifically bad when she mixes it up and trains with the men's bar. "I guess my callous build up specifically for the women's bar and when I use the men's bar, I expose a weak section of my thumb to the bar," she explained.
Siemens admitted she doesn't take care of her hands enough in terms of sanding them down with a pumice stone or a callous shaver; it's her thumbs that cause her the biggest issues.
"When volume is high, I wrap athletic tape around my thumbs, and it helps for gripping the bar as well as protecting my skin."
RIPT: Hand-in-hand with sport - Kettlebell Athletes
Posted by: Devin Glage
Ben Poss still remembers the horrors of his hands when he completed his Russian KB certification RKC (Russian Kettebell Challenge). It was a three-day course, meaning his hands didn't get a break for three entire days.
One of the things he had to do on the first day was 100 KB snatches with a 24 kg KB in less than five minutes without putting the KB down.
"Those three days of high volume KB training was the most punishment my hand have ever suffered," said Poss.
He added: "Both hands had torn calluses by the third day, and my hands were absolutely raw by the end of the graduation workout – The Deep Six."
Here is a link to the workout if you would like to try it yourself: http://kbforum.dragondoor.com/kettlebells-strength-conditioning-forum/138876-rkc-deep-six.html
After years of experience, and tearing up his hands numerous times, Poss can be considered an expert in the field of hand care for kettlebell athletes.
Donny Shankle on Hand Care for Weightlifters
Posted by: Devin Glage
Donny Shankle is bigger than you, stronger than you, and knows more about hand care for weightlifters than you. When your profession is lifting heavy objects over your head, taking care of your money makers is a must. If you can't hold the bar anymore, your training suffers. In the following video, Shankle will walk you through how to properly take care of weightlifting hands, and which products he uses (can someone please get this man a RIPT kit?). Specifically a waxy hand balm (a la Quick Fix) rather than a hand cream, and a pumice stone to smooth down dead and dry calluses. While Donny nails hand care on the head, the only point we would add is that...
RIPT: Hand-in-Hand with Sport - Gymnastics
Posted by: Devin Glage
Meet Kate Richardson:
Kate learned about hand rips at a young age. The two-time Canadian Olympic gymnast was already going through multiple rolls of athletic tape per week at the age of eight.
Although gymnasts wear grips when they perform on the bars, rips sometimes still happen, making bar routines painful, not to mention psychologically daunting....
RIPT: Hand-in-Hand with Sport - Rowing
Posted by: Devin Glage
That moment when you're hanging onto a bar, oar, barbell, kettlebell, and you can feel the skin on your hands start to shift…
Although your shifting skin provides little physical evidence of any kind of blemish yet, you know you're about to get a blister. And a rip.
Gymnasts, CrossFit athletes, rowers, rock climbers, among other "hand sport" athletes are all too familiar with this feeling. It's not the end of the world if the following day is your planned rest day, but if you're in the middle of the Regional CrossFit competition, or sprint repeats in preparation for the Olympics, curse words start forming in your head, sometimes even bubbling out your mouth.
You need your hands to perform.
In the upcoming series of posts, we will explore the hand care needs of various elite level athletes in different sports, and demonstrate how RIPT Skin Systems' 3 Phase Reinforcement kit can help you keep your skin in the game...
RIPT Skin Systems' Hand Care Marketing Mantra
Posted by: Devin Glage
At RIPT, we know a fews things about athletic hand care: If you're a high performance athlete, and your hands are involved in playing or practicing your sport, then ripped hands are like a flat tire. They limit your performance and your fun. RIPT will fix your hands. Fast. While we would love to be able to market RIPT Skin Systems to you with the use of scantily clad women, gritty, high production value video, and the promise that using our product will get you that fancy watch, performance sports car, and of course, the girl. But you're smarter than that. So here are a few of our marketing mantras: RIPT is a devilishly clever spelling error that works for...

Series Messages from Truth For Life

When King David reviewed his life, his focus was on the Lord as the source of his strength and victories. Alistair Begg points out that the same God who provided for David—the only true and living God—continues to provide for us today. His ways are perfect, even when our lives are sad and stormy. His provision, however, won't be enjoyed by everyone. Salvation is only promised to those who trust in His Son, Jesus, the ultimate and everlasting King.

From his Athens based studio, he delivers scoring, foley and sound design services for many local and international clients.

It's Friday Night, Let's Go Out
I can't pass up a night with live music. When I saw that the EPIC was bringing another country tour to town last Friday night, I knew I wanted to go to the show. I was sold when I saw that the event was partnered with Happily Ever After, a local animal sanctuary. Each ticket purchased directly helps the cats and dogs that the nonprofit cares for. While I haven't personally adopted a pet (yet), I know a few people that have adopted from Happily Ever After. I admire the organization, what they stand for, and the work they do. A fun night out for a great cause? Sign me up!
Arriving at the EPIC Event Center
As soon as I walked into the EPIC, I saw the partnership with Happily Ever After in action. Very cute and adoptable pups greeted us fans. I had the chance to meet a sweet dog, Alfredo. I'm sure every fan that held him wanted to take him home. Lots of other dogs were hanging out around the venue before the show got started. I was happy that I arrived when the doors opened so I got to experience this. I've been to quite a few concerts, but I had never been to a show like this.
Getting Ready for the Music
I opted for standing tickets so I could be close to the action. However, the balcony at the EPIC is a nice option if you would like to reserve a seat. With standing tickets, it's especially nice to show up to the concert early so you can walk around and scope out your spot. I like having the time to grab a drink before the show gets started too. I enjoyed the drink special of the night that was themed after Tyler Rich's dog, Yukon. Cleverly, the drink was made with Yukon Jack whiskey.
Let's Get It Started: Mandi Sagal Takes the Stage
The first opener was Mandi Sagal, a Nashville singer-songwriter who is originally from Green Bay (and a Bay Port High alumnus). She had a very personal connection to the show since she adopted a cat from Happily Ever After years back. Mandi performed lots of original tunes and even a Shania Twain cover alongside her husband who played the guitar. I loved her song, "One Less Broken Heart," which is set to release in January. She shared a raw and real story behind the new music: I always find it impactful to hear the meaning of songs from the songwriters themselves.
Up Next: Time To Rock with Robyn Ottolini
You may know her from her TikTok viral hit, "F-150." Robyn came out to the stage with lots of energy and a powerful band behind her. She delivered a variety of genres in between original songs and covers like Elle King and Miranda Lambert's "Drunk (And I Don't Wanna Go Home)." In the crowd, we got to hear her rap, get a bit rock-and-roll, and even perform Hannah Montana's "Best of Both Worlds." It was incredible to hear her play the piano and perform "Trust Issues." I was also happy to hear a bit more Shania; Robyn played "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?" with her own unique twist.
Hello, Headliner: It's Time for Tyler Rich
Last but certainly not least, Tyler Rich and his band met the audience. He's no stranger to Green Bay or performing in Green Bay. Like Mandi, Tyler also adopted a furry companion from Happily Ever After. Near the end of the show, we got to see his dog, Yukon, come out on stage. It was really cool to hear the story of Yukon's adoption and Tyler Rich's personal connection to the area. Not to mention, it was amazing to hear him perform so many of his original songs and even a "Billie Jean" cover. Tyler really engaged with the crowd and even refereed a beer-chugging contest between two fans in the front row. Near the end of the show, Robyn joined him for a song. His grand finale was "Leave Her Wild" (one of my favorites).
What A Night
Friday night's concert was an excellent blend of performances that left me excited for what may be next at the EPIC. I will definitely be keeping my eye on upcoming show announcements. I understand that not every concert can be accompanied by adorable pups, but let's just say, I wouldn't mind it.

In today's interconnected world, going beyond boundaries with international shipping services is not just an option but a necessity for businesses looking to expand and succeed in the long term.Global Logistics: The Backbone of International Shipping Services In today's interconnected world, international shipping services play a vital role in enabling the exchange of goods and services across borders. At the heart of this complex process lies global logistics, the backbone that keeps the wheels of international trade turning smoothly. Global logistics refers to the management and coordination of the flow of goods, information, and resources across different countries and continents. It involves a network of transportation, storage, and distribution systems that work seamlessly together to ensure efficient and timely delivery of products to their intended destinations. One of the key components of global logistics is transportation. Whether it's shipping goods by sea, air, or land, logistics professionals carefully plan and coordinate the movement of products from their point of origin to the final destination. This involves optimizing routes, selecting the appropriate mode of transport, and ensuring compliance with international trade regulations.
Another critical aspect of global logistics is warehousing and inventory management. Companies need strategically located warehouses to store their products during transit, especially when dealing with large volumes. Efficient inventory management ensures that goods are available when needed, minimizing delays and reducing costs. Information technology plays a crucial role in global logistics. Advanced tracking systems, real-time data analytics, and supply chain management software enable companies to monitor the movement of goods, track inventory levels, and make informed decisions to improve efficiency and customer satisfaction. Global logistics also encompasses customs and regulatory compliance. Navigating the complexities of international trade requires a deep understanding of customs regulations, import/export procedures, and documentation requirements. Logistics professionals work closely with customs authorities to ensure that goods comply with all necessary regulations and clear customs smoothly. The importance of global logistics cannot be overstated.
It facilitates the efficient movement of goods on a global scale, connecting producers, suppliers, and consumers from different corners of the world. Without robust logistics systems, international trade would grind to a halt, explore the website impacting economies, businesses, and consumers worldwide. Moreover, global logistics has become even more critical in recent years with the rise of e-commerce. The exponential growth of online shopping has increased consumer expectations for fast and reliable shipping services. Global logistics providers must adapt to this changing landscape, offering flexible solutions and faster delivery times to meet customer demands. In conclusion, global logistics serves as the backbone of international shipping services. It ensures the smooth flow of goods across borders, enabling trade and economic growth.

Google's cybersecurity centre in Malaga. Credit: Googlemaps.com
TODAY, the inauguration of the Google Safety Engineering Centre (GSEC) in Malaga marks a significant step towards enhancing online security across Europe.
The ground-breaking event took place on Wednesday, November 29, spotlighting Malaga as a key player in Google's expanding network of security expertise, writes Onda Cero.
With cyber threats escalating in complexity and aggression, the GSEC in Malaga emerges as a crucial component in combating these risks. This facility is not just a research centre, it is a hub of collaboration for experts, academics, businesses, and European governments.
Their goal is to forge security advancements that will be beneficial to everyone. The centre embodies Google's dedication to security and European values, featuring diverse teams and experts focused on pioneering research and developing sophisticated threat combat tools.
The GSEC's strategy rests on three principles: swift response, open source technology, and artificial intelligence. Joining Google's existing centres in Dublin and Munich, the Malaga centre goes beyond mere discussions on digital security—it actively constructs it.
One of its primary missions is to bolster cybersecurity knowledge and protection across various entities, aligning with Google's open security principles. This initiative extends to a dedicated training space for tailored seminars, benefiting a wide range of participants from companies to educational institutions.
Google has already made significant strides in digital education, training 12 million people across Europe. Reinforcing this commitment, the company has pledged $10 million dollars through Google.org.
This investment aims to promote cybersecurity training and support local NGOs, addressing the growing need for cybersecurity professionals in Europe.
At the Malaga event, Google released a new VirusTotal report highlighting the role of AI in identifying malicious code more efficiently than traditional methods. The report reveals a critical shortage of malware analysis experts in Europe, emphasizing the need for AI to bridge this gap.
AI not only complements traditional techniques in detecting malware but also transforms cybersecurity, making it more accessible to a broader audience. This approach could significantly improve the protection of European organizations and businesses of all sizes.
The GSEC in Malaga is more than just a research centre. It is a beacon of hope in the fight against cyber threats. By harnessing AI and fostering collaboration, Google is paving the way for a more secure and trustworthy technological environment.

Beirut, Asharq Al-Awsat—The delayed renovation project to turn the childhood home of Lebanon's legendary singer Fairuz into a museum will begin by the end of this year, the mayor of Beirut said.
"When maps and the tender documents for the house repairs are ready, we can start implementation. This will happen at the end of this year," Mayor Bilal Hamad told Asharq Al-Awsat.
The Beirut municipality first announced it would restore the house and turn it into a museum in 2010. Work has since been delayed by multiple bureaucratic procedures including the transfer of ownership to the state. The municipality has still not gained possession of the house.
Hamad says that the State Ownership Committee needs to value the building before the municipality can take ownership. "We will try to accelerate our procedures as much as possible. After the price estimation is completed by the concerned committee, we will transfer the sum to the original owner," Hamad said.
The mayor emphasized that the authorities are determined to establish a museum that does justice to Fairuz and her story as one of the Middle East's most celebrated singers.
"When we say 'Fairuz', we feel as if we are talking about Lebanon or the Lebanese cedars, as Fairuz is considered our ambassador worldwide and is an icon who has raised the Lebanese flag high regionally and internationally," Hamad said. "The least we can do for her is to honor her in a manner that befits her stature."
Fairuz spent her childhood in the house in Beirut's central Zuqaq Al-Blat neighborhood. It is said that she used to sit near a window that overlooked the garden to listen to songs by Arab music greats such as Umm Kalthoum, Mohammed Abdel Wahab, Asmahan and Layla Murad being played on the neighbor's radio while she crooned along softly.
The house cradled the young Fairuz's voice before Mohammed Flayfel—a well-known musician and teacher at the Lebanese conservatory—discovered her talent during a school choir recital in 1946 and projected her into the limelight.
The building dates back to the beginning of the nineteenth century at the time of the Ottoman Empire. Naji Raji of Save Beirut Heritage, a group that lobbies to prevent the destruction of the city's old buildings, says Fairuz lived on the ground floor of the house, which now consists of another floor that was added later. However, after many years of neglect the building is now falling into disrepair.
"The house is located in the midst of a small garden and consists of two rooms with their annexes and ceilings decorated with arches inspired by traditional Lebanese architecture. As for the floor, part of it is covered by mosaic, whilst the rest is covered by clay," Hamad said.
Fairuz herself has been consulted over plans for the proposed museum. "We in the Beirut municipality do not want to take a single step forward without prior agreement from Fairuz," said Hamad.
The mayor said the museum is expected to contain videos of her plays, and perhaps the dresses she wore in her performances. "All these ideas are still mere suggestions which we will present to Fairuz who will have the final say on whether this can be put into effect or not."
Lebanese Minister of Culture, Rony Araiji, said the ministry was working toward placing the building on the State Ownership list. "We fully support the Beirut municipality in this regard, and it is the Lebanese Ministry of Culture's duty to sponsor all museums to be established in the country," however, he added that "making a decision and implementing the issue depends directly on the Beirut municipality."
Araiji, who said he had become well acquainted with Fairuz after being appointed minister of culture last year, hoped the standard procedures required to establish the museum would be accelerated so that the Lebanese can enjoy the museum as soon as possible.

A local girl has caught national attention by making a difference worldwide.
Lindsay Brown, 21, a Notre Dame student and Newport Beach native, is on the cover of the October issue of Seventeen for her work helping empower young girls across the globe through soccer with the non-profit she founded, The SEGway Project.
"I'm happy Seventeen wants to give these girls a voice," Brown said, and reaching 13 million girls and young women, average age between 15 and 22, through the magazine can really help raise awareness about the girls, their situation and the charity. If her story can inspire just one girl to take action it would be a success, she said.
SEGway, or Soccer Empowering Girls Worldwide and You, organizes girls' soccer teams in developing countries. The girls gain confidence, a healthy competitive spirit, self-worth, learn teamwork and "acquire the life skills needed to segway into the leader she was born to be."
The project aims to help them fulfill their potential both on and off the field.
"You can honestly see the difference in these girls," Brown, a NCAA Division 1 soccer champion, said.
The girls are more engaged in the classroom, they're raising their hands more often, and overall they aren't as timid as they used to be, she added.
"It's amazing that a sport I've been playing for 15 years can be so powerful in this community," Brown said.
"It's been amazing to see the girls out there, on the soccer field, for the first time in their lives, just bursting with confidence," said Maggie Doyne, founder and principal of Kopila Valley School in Nepal.
"We believe soccer has the unique ability to build leaders while breaking down gender barriers. The solidarity the girls form on the field will translate off the field into lasting friendships, a strong community and a new generation of powerful women," the website, thesegwayproject.org, states.
The magazine's second annual "Pretty Amazing" cover contest is presented by Neutrogena and the winner was chosen out of about 35,000 entries by readers' votes; Ann Shoket, editor-in-chief of Seventeen; Emma Roberts, actress and Neutrogena Brand Ambassador; and Jared Eng of JustJared.com.
Brown, along with four other finalists, was flown to New York City earlier this summer for a photoshoot and a luncheon with the editors of Seventeen and Roberts. Her prize also includes a $20,000 scholarship from Neutrogena.
"What set Lindsay apart was her selfless devotion to helping other girls understand their power in the world," Shoket said.
Brown's project "empowers girls through academics and athletics, allowing them to escape the cycle of poverty and "segway" into becoming true leaders," a press release from Seventeen states.
It all started when Brown was a freshman at Notre Dame, her soccer coach encouraged her, as well as her teammates, to get involved with non-profit organizations and to do their part in giving back and helping the less fortunate.
She had already volunteered in Madagascar with Operation Smile while she was in high school, so it came naturally to Brown to join up with a worthy cause.
She started and became president of a Notre Dame chapter of She's the First, a non-profit that sponsors girls' education in the developing world, helping them be the first in their families to graduate.
Her first fundraiser for STF was a bake sale in her dorm. They raised enough to sponsor one girl's education at the Kopila Valley School in Nepal. Not long after they heard from that very girl, who expressed her gratitude and explained how their charity made a huge difference in her life.
"We thought, 'this really helped her, and we can do so much more,'" Brown said.
So they held more bake sale fundraisers, all huge successes in part to a tie-dye cupcake they created, and sponsored two more girls' educations in the fall.
Soon after Brown and her team won the national soccer championship title and the girls contacted them. They told the soccer stars that they have been following the team's progress and were excited for their win, even though they didn't have their own soccer team.
Brown, who has played soccer since she was a kid, was touched by this and felt compelled to do something.
So she organized a team for girls in the small community in Nepal. She also volunteered as a teacher for the school during summer.
"It was a big deal for this community," she said. "It was very eye opening for me."
She is currently working on getting teams going in Kenya and Cambodia.
Brown decided to step down from the soccer team to focus more on SEGway.
"I decided if I wanted to focus on this project I need to be totally committed," she said. "It was definitely the right decision."
"Leaving the soccer team was a big sacrifice for me," she continued, "but it's nothing compared to what these little girls have sacrificed."
Brown, who lived on Balboa Island and attended Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, said she wants to empower the girls to be leaders not only in the classroom, but also out in their community.
There has been some resistance though, she added.
The boys on the soccer team at the school in Nepal were upset at first but after Brown interacted with them and they realized how good the girls were, they gained respect for them.
It also took some time for the parents to trust Brown and accept that the soccer team is good for the girls. The girls usually help out with family or get a job or something after school, she explained, so it takes a lot for them to let the girls stay after school to play.
Brown said since getting involved with this project her personal life goals have changed dramatically.
"I thought my goal was to win national champion and possibly go on to Olympics," she said. "Then I saw the impact we were making on these little girls and my goals instantly changed… It's great to see my personal passion being put to use like this."
Her goal now is to one day work with policy makers to help make a difference in these communities. She has plans to continue her education at graduate school and study international relations.
She was one of the Google Zeitgeist "10 Young Minds That Will Change the World" in 2011 and spoke at the Clinton Global Initiative University in April 2011.
Brown's story is in the October issue of Seventeen on newsstands nationwide now.

Final preparations for Vanuatu elections
Vanuatu's snap elections will be held on Thursday 13th October. The Electoral Commission is busy getting everything in place for what is hoped will be a smooth polling day. Ballot boxes are being despatched to outlying areas. The patrol boat RVS Takuare remains out of service whilst awaiting input from Australian technicians. This leaves a serious gap in logistics assets. It has been met to some degree by air support provided by the Government of Australia. Private sector boats have also been commissioned to provide vital support to get ballot boxes out to rural areas in time for polling.
The Electoral Commission has confirmed that there are 219 candidates contesting the 52 seats in the Parliament. Campaigning will end at midnight Tuesday 11th October. It is expected that the results will be known early next week and then the work of forming a new government will begin.
Marshall Islands success at the UN Human Rights Council
Marshall Islands has secured significant success in seeking appropriate recompense for the damage inflicted on that country by years of nuclear testing and the dumping of nuclear waste.
The United Nations Human Rights Council has adopted a motion that provides for technical assistance to be provided to Marshall Islands to address the ongoing impacts of the nuclear legacy.
The motion was tabled by Marshall Islands, Fiji, Nauru, Samoa, and Vanuatu. It calls for technical assistance to be provided to Marshall Islands as they seek justice for the harm that was inflicted upon them, including its lasting health and environmental impacts.
The resolution calls for the UN Human Rights chief to table a report by the end of 2024 to document the challenges to human rights and enjoyment of life caused by the ongoing impacts of nuclear testing in Marshall Islands.
Vanuatu and Samoa seek to cap numbers of people leaving for work
In Vanuatu and Samoa there are growing concerns about the number of people, including skilled workers, who are leaving to take up temporary work opportunities in New Zealand and Australia.
Authorities in Port Vila and Apia are now considering putting a cap on the number of people who can take part in the Recognized Employer Scheme in New Zealand and the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility scheme.
Both countries are undertaking reviews of their labour mobility policies and introducing a cap on the number of people who can take up opportunities to work overseas is in contemplation as part of this process.
This comes as Australian research reveals that participation by Vanuatu, Samoa and Tonga in labour mobility programs has reached such a level that for each country there are as many people working overseas as are working for the governments.
Foreign Minister of Australia in the Pacific
Australia's Foreign Minister, Senator Penny Wong, will spend the second half of the week on tour in the Pacific islands region.
Her trip will take her to the Republic of Marshall Islands and Nauru. It will be her first time to visit both of those countries since becoming Foreign Minister in May. It follows a number of visits she has made to the region since taking on the portfolio.
In Majuro, she will visit an outrigger canoe-making project and give a speech at the College of the Marshall Islands. President Kabua's government will host the Minister's delegation at a dinner.
In Nauru, she will have an opportunity to meet with President Russ Kun, who took over as leader of the country further to the elections that were held last month. Australia is a partner in substantial projects to build climate-resilient infrastructure, including a deep-water port, in that country.
Tess Newton Cain is an Adjunct Associate Professor at the Griffith Asia Institute and project lead of the Pacific Hub.

Lockdowns drive consumer complaints over travel cancellations
New COVID-19 lockdowns affecting 14 million Australians have resulted in a spike in complaints about travel spending, with many consumers caught out when seeking refunds sparked by government restrictions.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission recorded a 450 per cent increase in travel-related complaints in 2020, and numbers remain about 10 per cent higher than average this year.
After tens of thousands of Australians were caught out by cancellations and COVID-19 disruption, the ACCC has been working with primary operators, including travel, cruise and accommodation providers, as well as intermediaries such as travel agents, booking platforms and package providers.
Companies are required to not mislead customers about potential remedies they are entitled to, or the cancellation fees that can be applied.
But where bookings are cancelled by providers due to government restrictions, the consumer guarantee rights under Australian Consumer Laws are unlikely to apply.
The most common COVID-19 travel issues reported by consumers relate to remedies for holiday bookings cancelled due to COVID-19, and the deduction of cancellation or service fees from remedies granted by businesses to consumers for cancelled bookings.
"Recent lockdowns continue to have an impact on the travel industry," a spokeswoman said. "The ACCC has seen an increase in consumer inquiries as a result of government restrictions."
Consumer advocate Adam Glezer has led a social media campaign for greater rights for consumers hit by COVID-19 cancellations and disruptions.
A motion in federal Parliament calling for greater rights for consumers caught up in travel disruption passed with bipartisan support.
Mr Glezer has collaborated with MPs including Liberals Kevin Andrews and John Alexander, as well as Labor's Michael Freelander and Fiona Phillips, while representing thousands of members in a series of Facebook groups.
"Consumer law has to change as a matter of urgency. As it stands, when it comes to refunds, our legislated consumer protections in situations such as a pandemic do not exist," he said.
"Consumers in the UK and USA have benefited from legislated protection as a result of COVID-19 travel cancellations. We have to enhance our laws significantly and not leave Australians vulnerable when it comes to refund rights.
"When there is a cancellation occurring outside of human control, such as a pandemic, we do not have a level of protection in place which guarantees the right to a refund. That is why we find ourselves in the current predicament."
Mr Glezer said a customer's right to a refund was based on the terms and conditions of the company they booked through.
"It simply is not good enough," he said. "It's time for the government to step up and protect all Australians. As it stands right now, we don't have protection in place for cancellations during COVID-19, such as travel."
Ms Phillips told Parliament customers and travel agents needed better protections.
"Consumers should have a right to a refund if the service they paid for hasn't been fulfilled due to situations outside of human control," she said.
"There should be mandatory trust accounts for all travel agents, including online travel agents – and many of my local travel agents have raised this – so that customers are protected.
"There should be greater transparency around fees for service, so that there are no hidden costs, and travel agents should ensure that supplier terms and conditions are provided to customers."

6 Signs You're an ISFJ – The 'Most Considerate' Personality
Disclaimer: The MBTI is a personality inventory designed to roughly identify a person's personality type, split into 16 categories. As such, it may be prone to not quite hitting the mark for everyone: so take it as a list of rough tendencies rather than strict classifications. This video/article's primary intention is for providing entertainment and light-hearted content backed up by properly-vetted professional sources.
When you think of the kindest and caring personality type, the ISFJ tends to top the list. Also known as the "Defenders", they are loyal and fair people, greeting everyone they meet with warmth and kindness.
And comprising 9-14% of the population, you may have encountered many ISFJs in your life already – or are even one yourself!
Here are signs that you're an ISFJ type.
1) You are detail-oriented, sometimes even a perfectionist
Are you someone who quickly notices things that others miss?
The ISFJ can spot discrepancies and seemingly minor details with relative ease. They have a knack for making sure that every part of a plan is in order – sometimes to the point that even the tiniest of details control them. If it borders that, the ISFJ's perfectionism can overload and overwork them. And oftentimes, they tend to struggle with it silently due to their introverted tendencies, not wanting to burden others.
2) You have a personal attachment to the things you do
Are you a person who puts your heart and emotion to the activities that matter for you?
The ISFJ tends to sprinkle a little bit of their personality and flair in everything they do. This could range from creations like giving presents, cooking, or cleaning. They do this willingly out of genuine kindness, which is great for flourishing healthy relationships but can also be hurtful if the other party doesn't reciprocate or appreciate the act. But for the most part, that doesn't stop them from doing it again the next time.
3) You find it hard to say no to people
Do you find it hard to turn down other people's requests? Even when it asks for a bit too much?
ISFJs are not only service-driven and dedicated people, but they also hate disappointing others. Oftentimes, an ISFJ can take too much on their plate at once, which can overwhelm them and cause burnout. ISFJs are better off if they identify this and start saying no to things that will lead them to exhaustion.
4) You abide by routine and structures
Are you a journal or organizer enthusiast?
As an SJ, the ISFJ can get stressed in unpredictable or chaotic environments. They perform much better at keeping things neatly filed and organized and vastly prefer it over just winging things. They perform best when you are given proper guidance and instructions on what to do and how to do it. In a home environment, their days are most likely blocked and scheduled routinely.
5) You have an unmatched memory
Do you have a knack for remembering vivid scenes from months or years in the past?
If there's a type who would remember a person's birthday, a long-lost friend's parent's name, or the name of your grade school's principal, it's probably the ISFJ. These types are blessed with a good memory – and it's one of the strong suits of this personality type. This makes them excellent friends with people who have "physical gifts" as their main love language – since an ISFJ would never forget your birthday. And even if they have unparalleled memory as their superpower, the ISFJ still remains grounded, humble, and modest.
6) You don't like attention at all
Are you someone who would rather stay on the sidelines?
Above all things, the ISFJ is a genuine introvert. The ISFJ is committed to only a select few. If they spread their energy too thin, they can wear out easily. The ISFJ, no matter how much they believe and care for people, need to regain energy after social situations, usually destressing by staying at their bed and reading a good cozy book.

The result? A 90-77 win for the Raps.
Sure wasn't pretty though. Early on the starters looked like they had not taken a lesson from the night before and the depleted Bucks got off to a fast start. One of the main reasons for the slow start was Terry Stotts taking a page out of Lawrence Frank's play-book showing the Raps a 2-3 zone right off the bat. Without any practice time the Raps looked lost. Bosh couldn't get involved and an easy shot was tough to come by. Before you knew it, a 15-5 lead for the home team.
Thankfully things started to change for the better. The turning point? A TJ Ford tear drop at the 5:59 mark of the first Q. From that point on the Raps started to put things together and the Dinos were back in the game. Much to Milwaukee's credit, despite blowing the early lead, their players didn't fold-up tent and the first-half was a back and fourth affair. Generally it was a fairly entertaining first half too and there were some good things going on for the Raps. Bosh and TJ were getting things going, the former on his way to a huge night with 30 points, 8 boards and 6 blocks. By the end of the game Bosh had put on a clinic on the offensive and the defensive ends.
Of course between the half and the end of the game I unfortunately was exposed to the third quarter. This was undoubtedly the ugliest and most boring quarter of Raps basketball all year. In the third stanza there were 28 points scored...between both teams! I think I shook my head more times than that during the quarter just trying to stay awake. No shots were falling, the shot selection was fairly poor and there was absolutely zero flow to the game. The fourth was marginally better but at no point was there anything to get really excited about.
Of course I did notice a few things that are noteworthy. I mentioned this a few days ago and I think it bears repeating. Anthony Parker is a GAMER. Parker played very well and even though the stat line for tonight would indicate a solid game, he did more than any box score could indicate. He played really solid D and it feels like he never takes a bad shot. Tonight he showed off some of his athleticism and was really the only wing-man to show-up. Without Parker's play I am pretty sure the Raps lose this game. The rest of the swing-men just did not get it going. Graham, Peterson and Jones all struggled. Wouldn't it be nice if you could mold these three guys into one? Graham's body, Peterson's range and ability to hit crazy shots, and Jones' athleticism. Then you would have one hell of a player.
One guy that did not play that much on this night was Calderon. Coming off the great performance in New Jersey one would have thought he would get some serious minutes. This was not the case as Calderon only played 14 minutes. Usually that would bother me but in this case it doesn't. Why you ask? Over the past few nights it seems like Mitchell is simply going to go with the hot hand at the PG spot. If that is the case (I will need to see this happen a few more times) then I am all about it. One of my fears early in the season was that Mitchell would simply play Ford over Calderon because of what the team had to give up for him and the $$. I would love to see Mitchell simply play the better player on any given night.
Perhaps the most interesting part of the evening for those fans who watched until the end was the exchange between Leo Rautins and the Swirsk. It is now official. Mr. Salami and Cheese is a corporate sell-out. He admitted it on national TV. Sure it's not really noteworthy as the whole world knew it, but at least now we know for sure that Chuck views himself as a promoter rather than a broadcaster. This begs a question that the Sportguy has asked on a number of occassions....what ever happened to true broadcasting?
Next game against the Celts who have now lost Tony Allen to injury. A lot of parallels between this game and Friday's. Two injury plagued teams and no reason not to grab a W.

Desktops and all-in-one computers are excellent choices for anyone hoping to set up their PC at home or the office. But what's the difference between a desktop and an all-in-one computer? A desktop PC is a computer tower that connects to a screen or monitor. But an all-in-one computer combines the tower and monitor into one device for a sleeker, all-inclusive product that can sit on your computer desk. The best all-in-one computers are relatively easy to transport, take up less space, and reduce cable clutter. If you know you'll be using your PC for activities that take higher processing speeds, like PC gaming, a desktop computer can offer more power. You can even find gaming PC desktops that provide larger fans, graphics cards, and other components for endless gameplay. If you prefer the more compact style of an all-in-one desktop computer, you can explore external hard drives and storage devices for extra file capacity. With a variety of choices, Best Buy can help you find the best desktop computer or all-in-one PC for your needs.
Get the most out of your desktop PC or all-in-one computer.
No matter what type of desktop computer you choose, there are several tools you can add to complete your PC setup. Typically, both all-in-one computers and desktop PCs will include the standard requirements, but you may wish to upgrade to a more advanced mouse and keyboard. A desktop computer will need a monitor to use as a display, but even all-in-one PCs can connect to a separate monitor so you can navigate two screens at once. Just make sure you have the correct cables or connectors for your computer and display, or even a wireless adapter. You can attach other helpful peripherals like computer speakers for ultimate audio and a color printer to fill your workspace. For those who work at home, our Discover & Learn center has helpful tips on setting up your home office. However you decide to accessorize your desktop PC or all-in-one computer, you'll want to remember to regularly maintain the device with computer cleaning and repair items so you can use it for years to come.

GRIFT EXPOSED: DOJ Charges BLM 'Activist' For Stealing $450,000 In Donations To Fund Lavish Lifestyle

The consequences of this grift aren't going to be pretty.
Sir Maejor Page, 32, (aka. Tyree Conyers-Page), of Toledo, Ohio has officially been indicted on charges of money laundering and wire fraud after he was arrested by the FBI in September.
A complaint filed last year that Page had been misrepresenting himself as a BLM leader triggered the investigation. It revealed that Page had created a BLM Facebook page and was misappropriating the funds raised for the non-profit's "social justice" activism on his lavish lifestyle instead.
Page is accused of raising money through the "Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta"(BLMGA) Facebook page that he set up as a non-profit organization and an affiliated GoFundMe page. He has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations for his own use. This includes purchasing a home in Toledo as well as other "expensive personal items" such as tailored suits, furniture, and a security system. Page also set up a BLMGA bank account where he was the sole signatory and used the associated debit card repeatedly for dining, entertainment, and personal purchases. In addition, he transferred money from the BLMGA account to his own personal account in order to buy a pistol and two shotguns.
The official indictment, filed on March 11, 2021, charges Page with three counts of money laundering and one count of wire fraud. It also allows the federal government to seize hundreds of thousands of dollars from Page in forfeitures, including more than $250,000 in cash from a Bank of America account in the name of Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta, along with properties on Glenwood and Maplewood Avenues in Toledo. These forfeitures, according to the indictment, account for properties derived from the commission of the indicted offenses.
"It is our sincere hope that these charges help raise awareness about online scams and efforts by some to exploit the name and purpose of non-profit organizations for personal gain," said Acting U.S. Attorney Bridget M. Brennan in a release sent to the media.
In addition to the forfeitures, the charges also carry hefty potential prison sentences (between 10-20 years in jail, and fines between $250,000-500,000 each at maximum). During Page's initial arraignment in September, the US Attorney indicated the recommended sentences would likely be lower.
How it started:
How it's going:
Things look even worse for Page — it seems that in 2016, he had registered BLMGA with the Georgia Secretary of State's office as a non-profit organization, and the IRS approved it as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit. This allowed the BLMGA organization to put a "Donate" button on their Facebook page. However, the IRS revoked the non-profit status in 2019 after three consecutive years of not filing paperwork for the organization. Page did not notify Facebook of the change in status and continued to accept donations through the page.
When the death of George Floyd propelled BLM back into the national spotlight, Page was making money hand-over-fist.
In a section titled "Scheme to Defraud," the documents allege that from May 2020 through his arrest in September, Page intentionally defrauded donors to Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta to the tune of more than $450,000. Prosecutors allege that he did so by making promises that donations to the organization would be used to combat racial and social injustices in the wake of the murder of George Floyd and instead using those donations for his own personal benefit.
The documents go on to outline a series of expenditures in both Ohio and Georgia, including purchases at hotels, retail stores, and Tower's Armory, as well as in the purchase of two pieces of property (a house on Glenwood Ave and the adjoining vacant lot on Maplewood Ave) in Toledo. According to the documents, Page attempted to conceal the purchase of the property by titling it to "Hi Frequency Ohio" and requesting the seller's realtor sign a non-disclosure agreement preventing them from disclosing the true buyer.
"Page is accused of using unprecedented tensions and uncertainty due to widespread civil unrest and a global pandemic to fill his own bank account," said FBI Special Agent in Charge Eric B. Smith. "Page allegedly purchased homes, traveled, and spent other people's money to buy luxury items for himself, all on the backs of hardworking people believing they were donating to a worthy cause. The FBI will continue efforts to root out fraudsters who victimize our fellow citizens for personal gain."
Source: ABC 13
Page has entered a plea of "not guilty" and insists that he's completely innocent.
In a statement, he said that he wasn't surprised that the government was proceeding with "a criminal case against a social justice activist."
"I maintain my position that I did not intentionally commit any crimes, as it is my only purpose in life to fight for those whose voices have been muffled and or silenced," the statement said. "Had I violated any state or federal laws I have no problem owning that and working to correct my actions. I believe that I acted in good faith. I look forward to a fair and just due process under the law."
We all look forward to a fair and just due process under the law. It's just not looking so good for Mr. Page who bragged about his expensive new goodies in social media posts. That was almost as stupid as stealing $450,000 in donations from a non-profit organization.

If Masculinity Is 'Toxic', Call Jesus Radioactive
Much of the Left loathes masculinity and they love to paint Jesus as a non-offensive bearded woman who endorses their agenda. This book blows that nonsense all to hell. From the stonking laptop of bestselling author, Doug Giles, comes a new book that focuses on Jesus' overt masculine traits like no other books have heretofore. It's informative, bold, hilarious, and scary. Giles has concluded, after many years of scouring the scripture that, If Masculinity Is 'Toxic', Call Jesus Radioactive.
