Want to build a quick CSS-only slideshow or a modal window? These are some of the most common UI elements on the frontend development and nowadays we can build them without using any JavaScript.
And sure, Google is the right way to get overwhelming resources. But why not to pick from a curated list of awesome resources.
And hence this GitHub page comes into play. It's titled "You Don't Need JavaScript", and it offers a huge list of workable CSS-only solutions for common interface elements.
One thing to note is that these codes are not end-all be-all solutions. Not everything in the list supports all browsers. So we'll need to vet each one individually on a case-by-case basis.
The list features over 20 different UI elements with many prominent solutions, such as:
- Accordion / Toggle
- Carousel
- Tooltips
- Flip on click
- Tabs
- Image galleries
- Dropdown menus
- And so much more.
Each project links out to a CodePen demo where we can see it live along with sample source code. However this specific GitHub repo doesn't have any actual code in it. Rather it's just a list of CodePen demos featuring non-JS solutions to common interface problems.
We're free to copy any source code from any of these demos and reuse them in our projects. But make sure to check the CSS properties tab before copying anything because some contain extra libraries.

I was talking to a lady this weekend who said she had sent a text message to her husband, telling him she had just setup her appointment to get breast implants. This was the very first time he had heard she was even considering a breast augmentation, and she couldn't understand why he was so upset…
All I could think was, "Are you kidding me?!"
When it comes to important life decisions, every healthy couple should greatly desire to have the love and support of one another before moving forward.
So today, I want to talk about the best ways that I've found to tell your husband/significant other (SO) you'd like to get breast implants—not because they're a dictator who should make every decision.. but because this is your SO, not your roommate from college. Your decisions affect them, so they should have the right to contribute to the conversation.
Setting Up the Conversation for Breast Implants
If we're being honest, a lot of SO's need our help understanding when their undivided attention is needed. And the best way I've found to get that is to have "the conversation before the conversation." It sounds something like this:
Hi sweetheart! Everything is just fine, but I'd really like to have a heart to heart conversation this evening after dinner. There's something I'm really excited about, and I want to see what you think about it. Again, nothing's wrong, so please let me know if tonight will be good for you. Love you!!"
Obviously I'm not a fan of the text message approach taken by the lady I was talking to this weekend, but something like this is perfect for a text message or email. If your SO is anything like mine, they'll pry a little, but that's why it's so important you make sure they understands nothing is wrong. Stand your ground and tell them you'd like to wait and have the conversation face to face.
Casting the Vision for a Breast Augmentation
Anytime you're pitching an idea to someone, remember to walk them through the three P's:
The Problem
The Pitch
The Possibilities
When you sit down with your SO to tell them you'd like to get breast implants, it's important you start by helping them see the problem from your perspective. Explain that they might not be able to understand or relate to how you feel, and that you need them to be ok with that—just like they doesn't understand why your grandmother's china is so important to you or why they have to both raise and lower the toilet lid :-)
In other words, before you tell them you want breast implants, tell them how you feel.
Important: Be sure your SO understands that your lack of confidence or insecurities have nothing to do with them. (P.S. If they do, then getting breast implants will not fix that and you two should dive into those insecurities with a good pastor or counselor.)
Letting the Cat Out of the Bag (The Breast Implant Pitch)
There's an old saying that I've found to be true: "People have to weigh in, to buy in." Make sure you give your SO a chance to weigh in with their opinion, and don't dictate what you are or aren't going to do.
Once you've processed your emotions with them, it's time to let them know that you've been thinking about getting a breast augmentation. You need to be very strategic with your language right here, and I strongly recommend you do not say something like:
"So I've decided I'm going to get breast implants."
There's no better way to upset someone who loves you than to tell them you're doing something whether they like it or not. Again, this decision greatly affects them, so they need to be a part of the conversation.
Let them know you've been thinking about it for a long time and that this isn't a spur-of-the-moment idea. This is a great time to reiterate your emotions, to tell them exactly why you want a breast augmentation, and to make sure they know it isn't because of anything that they have said or done to make you feel "not good enough."
Dreaming Out Loud (The Possibilities)
My husband always says, "If you want me to get excited about going to the beach, then be sure to paint me a picture." Almost all men are visual, so be sure you don't miss the opportunity to help your SO see the future.
Tell them how excited you are about the possibilities of things like:
Being about to fill out a bikini top and wearing sexier clothes
Them having more of you to hold and touch
Being more confident in the bedroom
The more descriptive you can be about how you envision the future, the better.
Finally, be sure not to demand an answer right away. Let your SO know it's ok if they need to take some time to process their thoughts, and ask them when they'd like to talk about it again.
Common Objections to Getting Breast Implants
Surprisingly, it isn't uncommon for SO's to be apprehensive about the woman they love getting breast implants. My husband wasn't immediately on board, and yet he would say it's one of the best things we've ever done for our relationship. Let's look at a few of the common concerns that SO's have about breast implants.
"But I'm fine with them..." or "I just don't understand..."
Some SO's won't feel comfortable with the idea of breast implants simply because they don't understand our feelings or because they like our breasts the way they are. Remember, it's ok if they don't understand and we need to help remind them it's not about where they have fallen short. That might sound something like this:
"I know you love my body, and I'm so grateful for that. But it's me who's not ok with it, and this is something I really want to do for myself. It's really important to me that I have your support."
"But what about all the health risks of breast implants?"
It's perfectly normal for anyone who loves you to have concerns about the health implications of breast implants, and rightfully so! It's a surgical procedure, and there are potential complications from it. If it were me, I would address this objection with something like:
"I'm really glad you brought that up, because I have a lot of questions like that too. I would love for us to do some research together and even setup a time to ask all of our questions to a board certified plastic surgeon."
"Aren't breast implants really expensive?"
Your SO might be worried about the total cost of getting breast implants. With the average breast augmentation costing in the neighborhood of $4,500 – $6,500, I can definitely understand why they would raise a flag over it! My recommendation to you is to acknowledge the expense and remind them of the benefits:
"It's definitely not the cheapest purchase we'll ever make, but I honestly believe it will be one of the best investments I could make in myself. I'm really looking forward to how it would pay off in our relationship as well."
"But what if I don't like the way breast implants feel?"
Our SO's worrying about how our new breasts will feel is a totally legit concern. In a world of saline, silicone, overs, and unders, we have quite a few options about how the end results are going to feel. If it were me, I would push this conversation to the consultation and allow a plastic surgeon to speak into their concerns:
"It's really important to me that you like them, and I've heard that we will have a chance to feel the different options during a consultation. Would you please go with me?"
"I thought only strippers and pornstars got breast implants..."
Some SO's might have a preconceived notion about the types of women who typically get breast implants. That's understandable, but what they probably don't realize is how common the procedure is. Be sure to remind them of how many woman a year get a breast augmentation:
"I thought that, too! Then I found out that about 300,000 women a year in the U.S. get a breast augmentation. There definitely aren't that many strippers and pornstars."
"But what will others think?" or "Will people be able to tell?"
These may seems like immature or insecure questions, but everyone naturally wants to protect their own dignity and the dignity of those they love. Your response to this question will be largely based on your personality style, but here's how I answered this one:
"I don't want us to be ashamed about this, and people might be able to tell. But it's important for you to know that there are a lot of things I would be able to do to 'play them up' or 'play them down.'"
To wrap up, just remember that this is a big decision you've been thinking about for a long time. Your SO might be on board as soon as you say "bigger boobs," but more than likely they will need some time to process their own feelings about it.
Be ready for that.
You're asking them to take a leap in their minds that's taken you years to make. So be patient, loving, and strategic in the way you approach this, and I think you'll be much happier with the end result :-)

T-ara's Eunjung Says She Hasn't Been Able to Spend Holidays with Family Since Her Debut
T-ara's Eunjung recently talked about some of the hardship she's faced since debuting, namely being unable to spend the holidays with her family.
On January 25, Eunjung and Hyomin made guest appearances on KBS 2TV's "Immortal Song." In response to a question that MC Shin Dong Yup had posed, Eunjung shared, "After debut, I have yet to spend the holidays with family."
She went on, unable to hold back the tears, "I'm currently living with my mom, but since my dad lives in Gangneung, I barely get to see him. Despite all of that, my dad is always monitoring my activities. I'm so grateful for that. When my dad heard I was going to appear on 'Immortal Song,' he was really happy. I hope when he watches this performance, it'll make him even happier. I think I'll be able to spend time with my dad for this lunar new year's."
T-ara members Eunjung and Hyomin covered "Faraway Hometown" in their owns adorable fashion and received a huge round of applause for it.

Work with System Mailboxes¶
Getting Access to a System Mailbox¶
A system mailbox is a centralized box for emails that are not addressed to any specific person within a company, for example, a mailbox for support requests, for business inquiries, or for order support. With a system mailbox, you can automatically convert emails into cases or leads, and set-up auto-response rules with email templates.
System mailbox configuration depends on the access permissions defined for a user. All the users with defined roles and all the specifically defined users will have access to the system mailbox.
Users with access privileges to the system mailbox can view the mailbox by navigating to My User > My Emails in the top right corner and selecting the system mailbox from the grid view selector in the top left corner.
Automated Processing of Emails¶
Automated processing of emails allows you to choose what actions will be performed with all the emails received in the mailbox. Out of the box, three different actions are available. This functionality can be expanded through customization to match your business's unique requirements:
- Do nothing — In this case, no actions will be performed. Emails will be saved in the mailbox and can be accessed by those users with permission to do so.
- Convert to Lead — Letters will be saved in the mailbox and a new lead record will be created in OroCRM.
- Convert to Case — A new case record will be created in OroCRM based on the email received.
To enable such functionality, please refer to your administrator. You can find more information on email configuration in the admin guide to email.
Auto-responses to Incoming Emails¶
The auto-responses allow you to set up automated replies to incoming emails. Using an auto-response is a great way to let your customers know that you have received their message and that someone will be in touch soon.
Refer to your administrator to enable this functionality. More information on auto-responses configuration can be found in the admin guide to email.

In words attributed to Art Babbitt, an animator with the Walt Disney Studios: "Animation follows the laws of physics — unless it is funnier otherwise."
At the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld an unemployable employee is considered fully employable -- and may be permitted to accrue an outstanding employment history -- until such time that the firm's senior managers notice and react to the fact that the employee was unemployable the entire time he was employed. The employee is then officially unemployable.
The U.S. Department of Justice recognizes the validity of this principle. According to the U.S. Marshal Service it is a forbidden act for an officially unemployable employee to disclose publicly, by means of a blog, for example, that he had been fully able to work the entire time before the post hoc determination that he was officially unemployable.
According to the U.S. Marshal Service an officially unemployable employee should keep his mouth shut and just collect his $500,000 in federal benefits.
Thanks, Lanny! I am so happy you recognize that the Justice Department follows the laws of the United States -- unless it is funnier otherwise. Hahahahaha! Remember, it's not a crime if it's funny!

Today was day 10 for P90x for me. I splurged a little this morning as I've been kind of on a little retail therapy kick this weekend and bought myself a little something special - a set of sportblocks!
Today was day 10 for P90x for me. I splurged a little this morning as I've been kind of on a little retail therapy kick this weekend and bought myself a little something special - a set of sportblocks!
So a few months ago, at some point between my experiment into Insanity and starting the Ultimate Reset I was kind of drifting. I was sure I wanted to lose weight but I wasn't sure that it could happen or would happen. I was just kind of going through the motions.
Enter Pinterest.
Pinterest has a health and fitness section and I often peruse it looking for recipes and fitness blogs and cool sayings. It's great for that. One day I ran across the Fleur Meets Fitness blog as a post that someone put up. I saw the before and after that made me want to go to the site. So I did. And I ended up reading every single post on her blog. Short story - she has lost an amazing amount of weight by deciding that she was going to take a year and dedicate it to weight loss. I feel like I haven't found a lot of blogs on weight loss that I identify with like this. She had one blog where she wrote about giving up and how this was going to be the time she didn't. Well right on sister. So much that she said were thoughts that crossed my mind and . And I got pretty amped up. Because I started to have "I can do this!!" thoughts that started to push out the "Why are you still bothering?" thoughts that had taken over. You see - you can't actually win at anything - weight loss, career goals, life goals - if you don't actually believe you can make it happen. To reach the hard goals you have to have motivation and you have to believe it is worth it and it is possible. If you don't have that, then it is almost impossible to convince yourself the sacrifice, changes, challenges, and hard work are worth it. And you start to slip. A cookie here. A skipped workout there. And next thing you know you are doing 25% of the work necessary to achieve 100% of your goal and wondering what happened. You have to have that believe in yourself and believe it is possible, bottom line.
So what did I too next? Made a 3 step plan to success Well the Ultimate Reset was step 1. Because if there is anything I had to accept it was that my sugar addiction and my inability to deal with my cravings (and just say NO sometimes) was killing me (literally and figuratively). And the fact that it was advertised as helping with both of those meant it was worth the money to go for it. With the food part handled, on to step 2 - Get serious. If there was anything that I realized while reading her blog it was that I had to make a conscious decision to do this. And decide to put in the work. So that's what I did. I picked a program (Turbo Fire with some Les Mills Pump mixed in) for the month of October and printed a schedule and posted it in my "gym" (what you don't have a home gym? ok me either, it's just what I call the area in the basement where I do my workouts, haha). And then I committed. I committed that I was going to do this and do it right. Which meant if I was going to keep bitching about how I couldn't lose weight I had to be 100% about this. So back to 5am workouts and 10pm bedtimes.
Step 3? Well that's were I'm at. It's continuing the work I established in steps 1 and 2 until I get to the goal. I don't really have a goal weight. I never really have and probably never will. My first goal is to get under 200 lbs because while I don't have a goal weight I do know that a healthy 5'9" girl is probably not over 200 lbs. I know the kind of body I want and I think that I can get there if I continue to stay focused, keep planning, stay motivated, and keep believing in the outcome.

Cruising in from Los Angeles is the hard rock band Riverdogs. Comprised of experienced musicians such as Guitarist Vivian Campbell who played with Dio, Def Leppard, Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy and more. Drummer Marc Danzeisen who's worked with numerous bands and contributed to Def Leppard, Bassist and Guitarist Nick Brophy who has written and collaborated for an extensive list of various artists like The Rolling Stones, Avril Lavigne and even Taylor Swift. And Rob Lamothe on vocals and guitar, who has his own has a lengthy discography.
With a lineup of musicians with such credentials and experience, you can easily imagine the kind of impressive work a group like that would release.
Riverdogs' fifth studio album "California" is here with good ol' fashioned rock and roll vibes with a hint of blues. Crooner vocals, soft reverberating guitar riffs and steady drum beats make for some really easy listening, although if that's not your jam, there's also some real hard rocking tunes in there, too. Overall, this album paints an image for us, an image of cruising down the road listening to good music with good friends on your way down… to California!
What this album seems to excel in is its purity. Everything about it is reminiscent of rock and roll music. No sub-genres, nothing radically different. It's just rock. This is seen prominently in tracks like "American Dream", "The Revolution Starts Today", "You're Too Rock and Roll", "Welcome to the New Disaster", "Catalina" and "Searching for A Signal". Although it's not all rock beats and sexy guitar riffs. Many of the songs on the album feature a much more relaxed and slower feeling, that really let you sit back and groove out. These songs are "Something Inside", "Golden Glow", "The Heart is a Mindless Bird", "Ten Thousand Reasons" and "I Don't Know Anything".
As groovy as these tunes are, I can't help but shed light on an issue I took with the album. All these songs are marvelous individually, however when listening to them back to back they blend together and become a little bit boring. In my opinion these songs are better off on their own because of this. That being said, I want to capitalize on the fact that this band is wonderful to listen to and have created an album that's instrumentally gorgeous and very impressive.
Long story short, if you're a fan of hard rock with a bluesy twist then this album is going to give you a good time without a doubt, so grab your air guitars and get ready to party with the Riverdogs down in California!

What makes my design side tick?
When I was young, I rearranged my room all the time. From an early age, finding new ways to showcase my treasures and keep my stuff organized was a passion. Now, as an adult, I have taken that passion for interior design to create homes that reflect my clients' unique personal styles.
Beauty and function, intertwined
Karla Billey Design Inc. is an Edmonton-based design house specializing in one-of-a-kind design for residential and commercial clients. For me, it's all about the details. I use my two decades of design experience to create spaces that truly reflect my clients' personalities.
An honors graduate from the University of Alberta, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Home Economics, I taught in the Residential Interiors Program at that same academic institution for many years. Through my experience and training, I've been fortunate to work on many accomplished projects like the Royal Alexandra and University Hospital Foundation Full House Lottery. I've also been privileged to have some of my clients' homes—and my own—showcased on numerous Alberta Ballet Home and Garden Tours, and Edmonton Citie Ballet H&G Tours, with my work featured in publications, including Avenue magazine.

Surviving in the ridesharing business can be tough, but for companies such as Uber and Taxify the competition is becoming fiercer.
Since entering the Australian market in July, China's Didi Chuxing has ripped open a slowly healing wound for ridesharing company Uber.
The 2016 merger of DiDi and Kuaidi booted Uber out of the Chinese market, with the strategic move winding up a $2 billion loss in China for the Silicon Valley giant.
Notoriously known for their low commission rates for drivers and continuous promotions for users, DiDi now occupies 95 per cent of the Chinese ride sharing market with more than 30 million drivers.
Now that DiDi Chuxing is bringing the party to Australia, the battlefield is starting to get messier.
Douglas Toy, DiDi Mobility Australia's Marketing Manager said that DiDi provided passengers 50 per cent discounts on off-peak rates and 20 per cent discounted on peak-time rates throughout August. Riders departing from Melbourne Airport also got a 30 per cent discount off their ride.
"The response from drivers and riders in Melbourne has been excellent to date and the initial feedback has been very positive. We look forward to expanding to other Australian cities," Toy said in response to the future expansion plans of DiDi.
While many ridesharing companies offered similar "first ride" discounts for newly signed users, DiDi plans to maintain not only first time, but also daily/monthly promotions.
Didi passengers can expect "a range of new offers/ incentives that will see new and existing customers rewarded with discounts of between 20-50 per cent off rides throughout September," DiDi Chuxing PR and Marketing referral account manager Dexter Gilman said.
Despite the endless price competition cycle to entice riders, an equally important factor is a competitive commission rate for drivers.
The successful generation of critical mass that DiDi Chuxing achieves between both drivers and riders is the major factor to their current domination within the Chinese rideshare business.
So how exactly how do they fare in Australia market? To answer this question, we conducted a competition between three rideshare companies: Uber, DiDi and Taxify.

Quick hit: Peavy changes tune/
As I was reading through some Yankee links this morning, I found this blurb from the Daily News website, thought it was cool and wanted to pass it along in case you missed it.
Dave Robertson has been the Yankees' closer for three days, but he's already earned some respect from a member of his team's biggest rival.
Jake Peavy, who, like Robertson, is an Alabama native, used Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" as his warmup music — the same song Robertson uses as he comes in from the bullpen.
Friday, Peavy replaced the track with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's "Badlands," a nod to the Yankees closer's choice of song.
"Songs are a bigger deal for closers and now that he's closing, I made a switch," Peavy told the Boston Globe. "I don't know David that well, but everybody says he's a good guy and we're in the same division."
So I have a few questions:
- When did people start calling David Robertson "Dave" and should we be doing this? Is it a thing now?
- Is "Sweet Home Alabama" the official song of Alabama?
- Is anyone else reminded of being drunk in their 20's when listening to both "Badlands" and "Sweet Home Alabama?" Just me? Okay
All kidding aside, that's a nice thing that Peavy did for D-Rob. I know baseball players tend to be superstitious and like to stick to their routines so for him to make that change for a division rival makes him pretty righteous in my book. Well, at least until he pitches against the Yankees.
And speaking of warm up music, I like to ask this all the time but I'm doing it again: If you were a Major League Baseball player, what would your walk up/warm up music be? Leave your choices in the comments.

When it comes to caregiving, it seems a staggering amount of people across the country are either the primary caregiver to a relative or one of the primary caregivers, often sharing the responsibility between siblings and other family members. While caregiving for a relative can sound like it shouldn't affect employee productivity and absenteeism in the workplace, it does and it costs companies millions of dollars a year in lost productivity and missed days. It stands to reason therefore, that employers give some kind of benefit for employees to use in order to lessen the stress of caregiving, but do they?
A recent study done by the Harvard School of business suggests that while almost 80% of employees cite caregiving service referrals as being a preferred and highly important work benefit, only around 38% of employers state they would consider this as a viable part of their employee benefits plan. Add to this the fact that over 90% of employers have noted the correlation between talent retention and a subsidized care home benefits option, yet fewer than 10% of companies offer such a benefit.
Despite the clear indication that employee retention in a number of situations is dependent on adequate coverage and care of a relative at home, employers seem reluctant to provide subsidized care referrals as part of employee work benefits. In the cases that they do, it's often found that employees aren't made aware of just what types of benefits surrounding care are available, leading to huge numbers of workers leaving the organisation to provide care for family in the home themselves.
With the costs of home care rising and many employers not providing options in terms of benefits for their employees, many organisations are seeing a high rate of turnover and a lack of loyalty to the company, resulting in high costs associated with talent loss and the need to train new employees. Studies show that, financially speaking, a loss of talent is almost equal to or more than the cost of providing a home care benefit of some kind.
Ultimately, with more and more Americans being burdened by care struggles as the baby booming generation reach senior years, more employers are going to have to provide services surrounding support groups, information seminars and other moral and financial support to those caregiving employees if they expect to retain their current employers as well as bolster company and organization loyalty.

This summer I was walking through Central Park enjoying the kids playing, walkers, joggers, bicyclists, rollerbladers, vendors...and I wanted to be in my body...I wanted to dance. So I followed my intuition and was guided to the area around West 78th with trees, magical hills of rocks, and benches and railings straight out of Lord of the Rings. Mystical. Ancient. Primitive. I found a flat rock surface, hit play on spotify and danced it out amongst the wild of Central Park. I felt a bit self conscious and then it melted away as I got more and more into my body. And after days of walking all over the concrete and linear lines of NYC it felt so good to be in nature and move my body to the music.
I wonder if we danced more, showed and embraced this wild, soulful side of ourselves to each other how the world would be different?
If you're on Spotify you can check out my dancing playlists that help me get into my wild heart and body. Enjoy and I hope you dance away...in your living room, in the middle of Central Park, or in aisle 6.
happy dancing twinkle toes.

Writer: John the Apostle, Servant and Prophet, and we know this from the following scriptures.
Revelation 1:4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
Revelation 1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Revelation 22:8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
Revelation 22:9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
The author uses several words that only John the Apostle used in the Gospel of John and in the epistles of John, i.e., John calls Jesus Christ the logos or the word.
Revelation 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
1John 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The author also calls Jesus Christ the Lamb of God.
Revelation 5:6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
Revelation 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
Revelation 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Revelation 14:1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
Revelation 15:3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
We can compare this to John 1:36. And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! We also find the word true (alethinos) used 10 times in Revelation.
The author used the Greek word dwell (Skenoo) in the Gospel of John to picture the tabernacling of Jesus Christ as God did in the tabernacle of old. This is a symbol of protection and communion. The same usage of the word occurs four times in Revelation.
Revelation 7:15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
Revelation 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
Revelation 21:3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
Date: 90-96 A.D., during the reign of Domitian who was a harsh ruler and had a warped personality. He ruled Rome between 81-96 A.D.. Christians were being threatened by Rome to recant their faith and accept the cult of emperor worship. This date was held by the early Church writers and the Church father Irenaeus and agrees better with the picture of complacency and defection of the Churches listed in chapters two and three.
Location: John is on a rocky island called the Isle of Patmos. It is located between the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas off the coast of Asia Minor. It is a very rugged, volcanic island about ten miles long and six miles wide. Domitian had put John in prison on this island for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ as stated in Revelation 1:9.
Different Methods of Interpreting the Bible and Biblical Prophecy:
- Preterist, prophecies fulfilled during the early history of the Church. This view is explained by going to this web site:
- https://https://www.endtime.com/blog/preterism-what-is-it-is-it-scriptural/
- Historical, a panorama of the Church from the days of John to the end of time.
- Idealist, considers the book a pictorial unfolding of great principles in constant conflict, without reference to actual events.
- Futurist, views most of the book, Chapters 4-22, as prophecy yet to be fulfilled. It is based on the principle of interpreting the text plainly.
- Literal, see Futurist.
- Allegorical, pictures a conflict between good and evil or Christianity and paganism, takes the literal meaning and attempts to 'spiritualize' it.
This study and all future studies will use the Literal/Futurist method of Bible interpretation.
Revelation (G602 apokalupsis ap-ok-al'-oop-sis From G601) disclosure: – appearing, coming, lighten, manifestation, be revealed, revelation. Something that has not been disclosed before is now being revealed.
Symbolic Language: <fontcolor="ff000″>Note, numbers such as (G602) (H302) from Strong's exhaustive concordance.
'like' (homoios, 3664) likeness in external appearance, used at least 22 times.
'as' (hos, 5613) similarity in action or quality, used at least 65 times, and 'as it were' used in a comparative sense, used at least 10 times.
Revelation 1:4 states the book is written to the seven Churches, which are in Asia. And, these Churches were in fact in existence when John was told to write the letters. It is a message for the Churches of that day and all future Churches.
The number seven occurs 54 times in the book of Revelation. It is associated with completion, fulfillment, and perfection. In Revelation there are seven Churches, seven Spirits, seven Lampstands, seven Stars, seven Seals, seven Horns, seven Eyes of the Lamb, seven Angels, seven Trumpets, seven Thunders, seven heads of the dragon, seven heads of the beast, seven Golden Bowls or Vials, and seven kings.
There are also seven Beatitudes or Blessings promised for those reading the book of Revelation.
Revelation 1:3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
Revelation 16:15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Revelation 19:9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Revelation 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Contents: The book of Revelation can generally be broken down into major categories.
- In Chapter 1 we see the revelation or revealing of Jesus Christ in His risen glory. He is the center of the entire book.
- In Chapters 2-3 He directs His Churches on earth.
- In Chapters 4-5 He is the slain and risen Lamb to whom all worship is directed.
- In Chapters 6-19 we see the judgments of the coming seven year period of tribulation. The judgments of the seven year period of tribulation on this earth are the display of the wrath of the Lamb.
- In Chapters 19:11 through 19:21 we see the return of Jesus Christ to this earth.
- In Chapter 20 we see the Millennial reign of Jesus Christ.
- In Chapters 21 and 22 we see the new heavens and the new earth.
The outline of the book is indicated in Revelation 1:19, the things that John had seen include the vision of the risen Christ in Chapter 1, the things which are we see described in the seven Churches of Asia Minor in Chapters 2 and 3, the things which shall be hereafter are the prophecies in Chapters 4-22.
The purpose for the writing of the book of Revelation was to reveal Jesus Christ in His risen glory.
The seven Churches listed in Revelation in Chapters 2 and 3 needed a word of encouragement, of counsel and of warning. The Churches of today need a word of encouragement, of counsel and of warning.
The Godly purpose was to give to the Churches and the world Revelation 1:1a The Revelation of Jesus Christ. This revelation is both the unveiling of the person of Jesus Christ as the central figure of history and the unveiling of the message of His heart. He is both the content of the Book of Revelation and the unveiler of the Book of Revelation.
The Revelation of Jesus Christ concerns Revelation 1:1 things which must shortly come to pass. It concerns the Lamb, the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, who alone is worthy to open and oversee the book of destiny, the book of the future of the world and lastly the book of God's redemptive purpose.

Edinburgh Elopement // This Edinburgh elopement has to be one of the biggest opportunities I've had since taking up wedding photography. Jenny and Phil flew in from Shanghai and wanted to exchange their vows at their most cherished place; Calton Hill.
There were no officiants, no family, just the three of us there to witness something incredible.
Having had their traditional Chinese ceremony back home in China, they wanted something personal and intimate where they could get lost in each other and explore Edinburgh.
We started off at the peak of cotton hill overlooking the city, they exchanged their vows; the wind so strong we can barely hear each other speak.
We then made our way around the city, exploring all that Edinburgh has too offer. Jenny & Phil - Thank you.

It is a common problem for earphone and headphone users that their cables become tangled. They may require a significant amount of time invested to resolve this unfortunate predicament. A reliable source told us why this happens. There is an angry pixie going around tangling the cables of people who listen to rubbish music.
If your cables are getting knotted then, chances are, your taste in music isn't too great. It's worth investing in one if these Cable Core Earphone Cable Tidies from ZenPlugs. They are designed to be ergonomic and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Both these features repel the angry pixie, allowing you to continue enjoying your dubious rap in peace.
The Cable Core has a unique eaten-apple design making it great at winding on the cables and keeping them nice and secure. This is unlike many other varieties of cable tidy on the market which often allow cables to become unwound and tangled in the bottom of your bag.
ZenPlugs tell us that they spent some considerable time designing the Cable Core. They wanted it to be better than other varieties of cable tidy on the market. They found that many of them were poor at keeping the cables wound around themselves. Often this was due to them being made of silicon and so too bendy to be useful.
The Cable Core is formed from a gently flexible polymer. This renders it comfortable to hold in your hand as well as being kind to your wires. It holds them gently but firmly in place and keeps that selfish little pixie at bay.

Cruise ship test call at the Port of Kapellskär
More and more cruise passengers are travelling via Ports of Stockholm, and the Port of Kapellskär will now be trialled for international cruise calls.
Hopefully the maiden call of an international cruise ship at the Port of Kapellskär will be on 6th September. If the weather is permissible, and the winds are not too strong, the MSC Meraviglia will call at the Port of Kapellskär in the morning.
"Stockholm is a very popular cruise destination and is attracting increasing numbers of passengers. Now we may try a cruise call at the Port of Kapellskär for the first time, with the potential arrival of the MSC Meraviglia at the port," says Stefan Scheja, Cruise and Ferry Manager at Ports of Stockholm.
The MSC Meraviglia is 316 metres in length and can accommodate 5700 people. Arriving from Oslo, the MSC Meraviglia will depart the same evening, at 7 pm, to sail onwards to Tallinn.
During the 2018 cruise season, which runs from April to October, 276 cruise ships have been booked to call at a Ports of Stockholm port. It is anticipated that around 650 000 passengers will visit the Stockholm region, with a lay-over call for the majority of vessels in Stockholm. However, 34 of the cruise ships will call at the Port of Nynäshamn.
The Port of Kapellskär is Ports of Stockholm's northernmost port, with freight and passenger ferry services to and from the Åland Islands, Finland and Estonia. Annually around one million ferry passengers travel via the Port of Kapellskär.
NOTE: The call will NOT be shown in the list of vessel calls at this website, or in the Cruise Stockholm app.

I'm not going to sugar coat this; even though, Neptune would like me to. Mercury square Neptune is a frustrating aspect, and everyone should be on guard.
Mercury square Neptune can be reduced to the simplest astrological interpretation: Mercury rules the mind and Neptune can be confusing and dissolves any planet it contacts. So, in its simplest form, we have a confused mind.
And, there you have it, the energy for the day – FULL STOP.
Now, how to deal with it.
It's necessary that all your communications are as crystal clear as possible and attempt to convey everything precisely and with careful consideration. Mercury square Neptune creates an atmosphere where it is easy to misunderstand those around us, and likewise, easy for others to misunderstand us. If you are unsure about anything; do not say it, or there could be future complications and potential conflicts.
Today is also not the best day for business matters. Mercury rules commerce and any deals that you make could be complicated, and even misrepresentation could occur.
Perhaps, the most efficient way of dealing with Mercury square Neptune is to use this energy to focus on inner spiritual issues. It is a excellent time for meditation, using your imagination, or engaging in creative projects. If you can manage it, take the day off and spend a day with yourself connecting to your higher purpose and good.
Be amazing!

HYPOT (Hygiene Pour Tous) is an integrated educational campaign that seeks to spread awareness about health and sanitation in the Paris Métro. The general population is typically unaware of, or does not follow, some of the most important tenets of healthy behavior in public spaces, creating persistent health concerns in high-traffic spaces. Capitalizing on the ubiquity of the Métro in Parisian life, our project will target commuters with a directed educational component in the form of postering in stations and trains, an artistic design contest, and a strong social media presence.
This effort will be supplemented by a physical sanitation component as we install a silver-based antimicrobial coating in the ventilation systems of the Métro trains. Together, these two advents will work to guide citizens toward healthier behavior in the Métro and beyond.
Our ultimate goal is to see this campaign implemented in all stations and Métro trains across the city and to make a substantial impact on public health by reimagining the delivery of educational tools in public spaces.

Republican nominee Donald Trump asserted Monday the government's 4.9 percent unemployment number is the "biggest hoax" in modern politics.
made a major economic policy speech in Detroit, Mich. Monday, where he asserted that the government's 4.9 percent unemployment number is the "biggest hoax" in modern politics.
The government released July's jobs report this past Friday, showing the private sector added 255,000 new jobs and the unemployment rate remained unchanged from the previous month at 4.9 percent.
The unemployment rate is calculated by a division of the Department of Labor called the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). BLS conducts a monthly survey known as the Current Population Survey (CPS) that involves 60,000 randomly selected households across the United States. CPS has been conducted by BLS every month since 1940, when it began as part of a Works Projects Administration program.
The survey first determine's how many people in the household are actually in the labor force, which is defined by BLS as people who have jobs or are actively looking for jobs. This is the problem that Trump highlighted in his economic policy speech in Detroit, Mich. Someone who does not have a job but claims he is not looking for one is considered out of the labor force and is not counted in the unemployment rate.
Resident scholar on economic policy for the American Enterprise Institute, Aparna Mathur, told The Daily Caller News Foundation that Trump's assertion is false. "You could argue that just because people are not looking for work doesn't mean that they don't actually want a job, maybe they are too discouraged to look or are simply biding their time," Mathur said.
Mathur explains BLS understands that the unemployment number leaves out the underemployed and those too discouraged to look for work, and reports a separate alternative measure of under-employment, which is the U-6 rate. Mathur stated that if the government used the U-6 rate instead, the "unemployment or under-employment" numbers would double.
Mathur concluded that the BLS is a, "trustworthy organization that is not fudging up the numbers, nor are the numbers a hoax. The numbers are the best estimate we have out there of what the state of the labor market is."
Trump isn't alone in his critique of the model. Sen. Bernie Sanders has blasted the government's unemployment numbers. Speaking at rally early on in his presidential bid, Sanders said, "when you talk about the economy we also have to have an honest assessment of unemployment in America." Sanders described a second set of government statistics of people no longer looking for work, and people who are working part-time when they want to work full-time. Sanders concluded, "when you add all of that together, real unemployment is 10.5 percent."
Speaking to the Detroit Economic Club, Trump laid out his economic vision alongside his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. Trump, frequently interrupted by protesters, offered specific policy initiatives and re-iterated his message of America first.
Trump's new tax plan included just three brackets set at 33 percent, 25 percent and 12 percent. His plan would limit taxes on business income to 15 person. During the speech, he also announced a plan to eliminate the estate tax, and to exclude childcare expenses from taxation.

"Meteor Cinema"/
Hong Kong-based firm One Plus Partnership has completed a two-story cinema, which draws parallels between the observation of meteors and the production of films. Found within a shopping mall in Guangzhou, China. The movie theater features a variety of architectural interventions that each portray a different aspect of a meteor shower — a scene that, in reality at least, only appears very briefly.

Hi, babes!
It seems a bit ironic that I am FINALLY getting the opportunity to sit down and write this post about organization/time management - and have been interrupted about 27 times by two adorable little tater tots for random requests. Ha! But nonetheless, here it is!
This is one of the topics I receive the most questions about on Instagram. Everyone wants to know how I manage to do all that I do (and stay sane while doing it). Well, here's a little secret for y'all: I lost my sanity a loooong time ago! I'd say about two kids ago. HAHA!
But seriously, I do have a Type A personality and have struggled with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) since childhood. While I don't have some of the "ticks" that others do (having to do things a certain number of times, etc.), I do have to stick to my daily routine and get very flustered if that routine gets out of whack. Which, as you can imagine, happens A LOT as a parent (and as a PRN, or "as needed", nurse). Slowly but surely, I'm evolving and learning to let some things go and adapt to changes when they arise...but I'm not gonna lie: it's still HARD!
As far as how I juggle my kids, husband, job(s), housework, and clients, here are a few tips that will help you organize, streamline, and take charge of your life!
1) MAKE LISTS. And yes, I meant to put the "s" on the end of that. I have THREE (but meaningful) lists that I use every. single. day. Those are:
- My CALENDAR: This is what I jot all of my family's events/appointments/and special dates down on. It is also where I put deadlines for clients, social media collaborations, and my schedule for the hospital. You'll notice I'm showing you December's page because it's not as jam-packed (yet) so it won't overwhelm you - haha! You'll also notice the mini sticky-notes over certain days. These are on there to hide certain fun things I have planned for you all on Instagram (shh!). But I DO actually use those sticky notes to jot down important information for certain dates (such as current client check-in statuses, reminders to write a check for school activities, etc.).
I like to use the lines to the side of the calendar to write down "intentions" and "goals" for the month. This could be things like: reading my devotional every day, taking on a set number of new clients this time, or yelling less (yes, that was actually an intention of mine for last month). Every day when I look at my calendar, I am reminded of these intentions and goals, making them easier to reach.
- My LEGAL PAD/CLIPFOLIO: This is where I write out my "to-do's" for the week. I usually write this out on Sunday so that I have a good idea of what needs to get done that week. Writing it out for the week ahead of time also lets me spread tasks out more evenly, which keeps me from being overwhelmed or feeling like I "failed" if I couldn't do it all on a certain day. On the other side of the folder, I have a little flap where I can stick important papers: the kids' school event flyers, recipes I want to try out this week, etc. (Again, the sticky notes are there to hide some projects that I'm working on for you guys. [wink, wink])
- My GROCERY LIST: I keep a running grocery list going, because when you have Mom Brainitis, you forget things literally 1.3 seconds after you think about them. (My husband knows where this list is, so he can go and jot items down as he thinks about them, too.) I also like to split up the different stores I go to every week to make my trip easier. It may sound like I'm being a bit extra, but after overlooking items and having to make repeat trips back to the store waaaay too many times, I've finally learned what works for me! I usually write the menu down on this list, too (or on the back of it), so I can make sure to get the items I need for each meal.
2) PRIORITIZE THINGS. I try to list my to-do's in order of priority, and always make sure the most important things get done first. When I do, my days just flow better, because even if I don't get every last task accomplished, I know the most important things were tended to. For me, my priorities are listed like this:
- family/home obligations
- work
- working out (which is a total stress reliever for me, but also so important so that I can help inspire and motivate you guys!)
- "other tasks" (or those that don't have to be done right this minute, but I would like to get done eventually - like purging the kids' clothes, organizing an area of the kitchen, etc.).
3) LET THINGS GO! Like I said before, this one has been the hardest for me, and an area that I work to improve on daily! I believe both prioritizing my daily tasks and listing them out (so I then mark things off and feel a sense of accomplishment) have helped tremendously. Personally, it helps me see to see the things that I don't get done and yet, somehow, everyone lived (haha!).
For instance, I used to sweep the floor anytime I saw some crumbs or have to make all of the beds before we leave the house (don't look at me like that...I told you I have issues!). While I still like these things to be done, they're not a priority. I've learned that if there are some crumbs on the floor or the beds aren't made every day, it's not a big deal! The kids will still be fed, clean, and happy. My husband will still have dinner on the table at 7pm (ok, 7-ISH...). Life will continue!
I guess the point I'm trying to make with this last tip is that you don't have to be perfect. No one expects you to be, so why should YOU expect yourself to be? Do what's important, get done what you can, and let the rest go. Hey, if I (the self-proclaimed Queen of OCDs) can do it, you can totally do it!
I hope this post helps to inspire you guys to take a step back, refocus, and organize your lives a bit - or at least know that you're not alone! If you ever have any questions or just want to ask for some prayer to help you through a difficult/crazy time, I'm just an email or DM away!
Love you guys!
**Since I know this question will come up, the calendar and legal pad/clipfolio were purchased at Target , and then grocery list pad was given to me as a gift (for someone who knows my list-lovin' heart!), but you can find them at Office Depot (click the link provided).

do not shoot for peets sake ... unless..
|© Pjmorley
I came up with the following thought .. do not shoot for peets sake ... unless..
1- you really have a good subject
if you know it will sell, if you feel it will look good on a cover of a magazine or a billboard and will catch your eye... don't shoot it.
2 - You are inspired
don't set up your camera on a tripod etc and just chuck anything on a board or what ever is used to get that spanking backdrop if you are uninspired - a) they will not come good - you will work to fast and too bored and b) they will probably be useless anyways
3) you have the time for keywording and submissions
if you don't - leave them - do them when you are free - a lot of thought should go in to keywording. if you do not have the proper keywords - they will not be found - and obviously - will not be sold
4) have good lighting
- if you are a) inspired b) have a good subject - but your lighting is rubbish - do NOT shoot it today!! it will only let you down. think about it - if you think you'll forget the idea - write it down and wait for a sunny day as your images will turn our grey and a lot of time will be wasted.
I think I've wasted loads of time just ignoring the above and shooting for shots sake .. my ranking is low, my sales are low and my images .. well they speak for themselves .. I think I am improving but I have a loooooonng loooong way to go!
please feel free to add to the list to help me and maybe others like me .. :)
hope this helps!! :)) keks

OK , that does it.
As I have only one upload at present, I have the tips as to how to start. By the way I have already implemented your third point (Keywords) I always put in the key words the next day (totally relaxed)
good tips!mark!
thanks for all the comments :) yes annieyek I realise there is a typing error- I meant to add a "then" before .. thanks for spotting it ! :)
Good tips, your PF is looking good so I agree, dont be too hard on yourself :0)
For the first point, any typing error?
1- you really have a good subject
if you know it will sell, if you feel it will look good on a cover of a magazine or a billboard and will catch your eye... don't shoot it.
You means shoot it or not shoot it?
Why not shoot it?
nice one kek :)
I agree with Mani, and great points
Thanks for the good tips! I think I like Maen's idea of looking at them again the next day too. Cheers Carol :)
Good tips!
What I usually do is never upload something I did today! I get another look to it the day after to see if I like it the same way! Try to be your own reviewer before sending it to be reviewed! That's why I played much the game (not to mention the addiction) :))
I agree with you that if it's about forcing things, it won't be ok!
Cheers ;)
It's good to do a bit of auto critic sometimes as it's a good way to learn and improve, but don't beat yourself up too much, you've got some good shots in your portfolio and some good sales too. Hang in there and keep up the faith!
