Output problem in the icem cfd12.0
When I mesh, I make two body, for example live1 and live2. But When I output the grid using the CGNS, there is only one body. Do anyone have the situation?
I see the same thing here... I played with it for a while and couldn't figure it out so I reported it as a defect.
Thanks and sorry for the hassle.
We do plan to make our CGNS output rock solid, but in the mean time, could you use the FLuent.msh format? That format is so common it has almost become a neutral file format its self.
Simon, thank you for your help.
And I have found that the Fluent.msh format can output two or more bodys.
I am writing the code for the fluent format input. But it is better that
the CGNS format can output as well.
Agreed. We will get that sorted out ASAP.
Bit of history/trivia; ICEM CFD developers (Diane Poirer and Bruce Wedan) were key people in the development of the CGNS format (from when it started to present). I think it is fair to say that they did most of the early development work.
ICEM CFD management was (and is) very interested in making sure that there was (and is) a strong 3rd party mesh format that we could all rely on. I am also currently on the CGNS Steering Committee, although not nearly as useful as Diane or Bruce ;).
This recent hiccup is more related to the switch over to CGNS 3.0 HDF. We will sort it out.
Waiting for the switch!
Thanks! After the discussion on the output format, Our team have chose the CGNS as the input and the output of our solver. The Griden can also output the format. And the tecplot and fieldview support the format as well. So I choose the fluent.msh format instead temporarily. I am still waiting for the CGNS.
I express my sincere respect for your work on the CGNS format!
(And my English is poor.:p)
Another problem!
Hi, Simon.
I found another problem in the CGNS output format from the v12.1. When I read the CGNS file using the CGNS.lib, there is something wrong. I found that the order of the prism nodes maybe wrong. I guess that the 7th node means the mid-node of the prism edge in the CGNS format.
Thank you!
I using ICEM CFD for my 2D geometry. I have two quick questions:
(1)I have drawn a rectangle geometry and trying to do hexa meshing using Blocking. I have followed these steps:
Blocking> Create Block> Initialize Block and clicked on the rectangle geometry to get the block. After that I have followed these:
Pre-mesh Params> Edge Paramas> Edge.
At this stage I have clicked on my geometry however I have found that the arrow is different direction what I am expecting to use some expanding mesh in certain direction. Please let me know, how the direction of edge arrow can be changed?
(2)I am trying to extrude my 2D meshed elements to get 10 layers of meshed elements. I have followed these steps:
Edit Mesh> Extrude Mesh> Elements and selected the whole meshed geometry >Extrude by element Normal>Number of Layers have put 10.
However, I have found that the meshed geometry got extrusion of infinity length. Please let me know how to do extrude 10 layers of elements.

Here it is, the matching vintage teacup set to go with the teapot set in my last post. As with the teapot set you have digi stamp and cut file versions so you can make use of this whether you have a cutting machine or not or simply want to colour yours as I have in my card, also I have a few sentiments for you today too, enjoy! :)
I flipped the Mojo Monday 203 sketch on its side for my card layout and kept the theme from The Shabby Tea Rooms week #74 challenge. In fact I think this might be my most successful 'shabby' style attempt so far, It's not a style that comes easy to me but I absolutely love the look of soft colours and lace etc that make up the shabby/vintage style. I coloured my teacup with copics and sat it on a distress ink sponged background, my seam binding ribbon was dyed with a mix of broken china and faded jeans to get the right shade of blue. The green gingham paper is from the pastel paper pack found on this page and my sentiment was coloured in word (right click on the image, click on 'format' then 'recolor').

For the first time, the 2015 round of PISA collected data on students' exposure to bullying. These data show that bullying is widespread. On average across OECD countries, around 11% of students reported that they are frequently (at least a few times per month) made fun of, 8% reported that they are frequently the object of nasty rumours in school, and 7% reported that they are frequently left out of things.
The latest PISA in Focus tells some basic facts about bullying. First, bullying is widespread. Second, all types of students – boys and girls, rich and poor – face some risk of being bullied.
The combined effects of policy reforms to attract and/or retain teachers, and financial constraints in the context of the economic downturn in 2008 may explain part of the recent trends in teachers' salaries: decreases in statutory salaries and smaller salary gaps between levels of education.
Teachers enter the profession for a variety of reasons. Intrinsic motivations that have to do with the nature of the job and the intangible rewards associated with being an effective teacher play an important role.
Local governments are the main contributors to the financing of early childhood education, particularly with regards to core goods and services such as staff salaries and school buildings. Households and other private entities bear a greater share of the cost than in other levels of education, particularly for ancillary services such as meals, school health services and transport.
There is now a widespread consensus that high-quality early childhood education is critically important for children. Research continues to find that early childhood education can compensate for a lack of learning opportunities at home, and can help children begin to develop the social and emotional skills needed for success later in life.
Small in size but not in its ambitions, Slovenia has a bold vision for a society in which people learn for and through life, are innovative, trust one another, enjoy a high quality of life and embrace their unique identity and culture.
Back in 2013, when we launched the OECD's first international review of school resource policies, we may not have been fully prepared for the detective-type work we were getting into. The OECD Review of School Resources covers 18 school systems and aims to shed light on a part of education policy that has been surprisingly left in the dark.
This report on the funding of school education constitutes the first in a series of thematic comparative reports bringing together findings from the OECD School Resources Review. School systems have limited financial resources with which to pursue their objectives and the design of school funding policies plays a key role in ensuring that resources are directed to where they can make the most difference. As OECD school systems have become more complex and characterised by multi-level governance, a growing set of actors are increasingly involved in financial decision-making. This requires designing funding allocation models that are aligned to a school system's governance structures, linking budget planning procedures at different levels to shared educational goals and evaluating the use of school funding to hold decision makers accountable and ensure that resources are used effectively and equitably.
This report was co-funded by the European Commission.

Corn Chowder
I love chowders. This one turned out really good with So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk Beverage (in the refrigerated section). It's thicker than rice milk and it's white like cows milk, so the look and feel of the soup is perfect. It does not have a strong coconut taste at all - the soup actually tastes like real corn chowder and not like coconut-corn chowder!
5 ears fresh corn, or one 16oz package frozen corn, thawed
1 tbsp. canola oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 cups water*
1 large russet potato, peeled and diced
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk, such as So Delicious
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
2 slices cooked bacon, diced
1 tbsp. dried parsley flakes or 2 tbsp. fresh chopped parsley
If using fresh corn, cut the kernels off the cobs with a sharp knife (do not cook the corn first). Heat oil in a soup pot over medium-low heat. Cook the onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the water and the potato. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in the corn and cook uncovered another 10 minutes or until the potato is cooked through.
Process half of the corn/potato mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth and return to the soup pot. Stir the coconut milk, salt and pepper into the soup in the pot. Bring to a simmer. Add the bacon and heat through. Remove from heat and stir in the parsley. Adjust salt and pepper as desired.
*Chicken broth can be used in place of the water, just reduce the salt to 1/4 tsp.

Amadou & Mariam are a Grammy Award-nominated musical duo from Mali, composed of the couple Amadou Bagayoko (guitar and vocals) and Mariam Doumbia (vocals). The pair, known as "the blind couple from Mali" met at Mali's Institute for the Young Blind, where they both performed at the Institute's Eclipse Orchestra, directed by Idrissa Soumaouro, and found they shared an interest in music. Amadou lost his vision at the age of 16, while Mariam became blind at age 5 as a consequence of untreated measles.

In this election cycle, as he has sought re-election and hit back against some insurgent outside groups, Sen. Mitch McConnell has adopted the motto, repeated often in interviews, "winners make policy and losers go home."
But McConnell, the Senate's top Republican, put a new, inadvertent twist on that motto during a recent campaign stop in Kentucky.
"Losers make policy, and winners go home," McConnell said.
Video of McConnell's gaffe was posted to YouTube by the campaign of his Democratic opponent, Alison Lundergan Grimes.
Grimes, 35, a first-time candidate for federal office, has attempted to draw a contrast in the race with McConnell, 72, who is Kentucky's longest-serving senator ever.
"35 is my age, that's also Sen. McConnell's approval rating," Grimes said during a speech at Fancy Farm, an annual political event in Kentucky.
McConnell's gaffe might help Grimes' campaign insinuate that McConnell is no longer as polished a politician as in previous election cycles. At the very least, it could be short-term Internet fodder.
But perhaps McConnell's rhetorical inversion was a Freudian slip: policymakers in Congress have suffered historically low approval ratings for months, after all, and a recent Washington Post-ABC News poll found that most Americans disapprove of their member of Congress, for the first time since that poll has been conducted.

At least 10 Cabinet ministers and a couple of ministers of state have been zooming in and out of Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal and Punjab in helicopters and planes, with little time to spare for the budget.
Jagdish Shettigar, in charge of the BJP�s economic cell, admits that the party�s priority at the moment is the Assembly elections, particularly those in Uttar Pradesh.
Finance minister Yashwant Sinha remained in New Delhi to announce important pre-budget decisions. But most of the other senior Cabinet members, including the Prime Minister, are away canvassing for the BJP.
�It will be difficult to talk to the minister before the elections are over,� says an official in the information and broadcasting ministry, headed by Sushma Swaraj, who is on a whirlwind tour of Uttar Pradesh and Uttaranchal.
Swaraj is not the only one missing. Home minister L.K. Advani, parliamentary affairs minister Pramod Mahajan and human resources development minister Murli Manohar Joshi are among the other star campaigners.
Joshi is, perhaps, most tireless of the lot, Shastri Bhavan sources said. The minister has invested most of his time and energy in Uttaranchal, his home state, and Uttar Pradesh, the state he represents in the Lok Sabha. �He has been camping in Uttaranchal for almost a week,� officials say.
Civil aviation minister Shahnawaz Hussain has been canvassing in Punjab and western Uttar Pradesh. Agriculture minister Ajit Singh is also a key campaigner in western Uttar Pradesh, where he has the largest following among Jats.
Sports minister Uma Bharti is trying to split the Lodh vote bank of former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Kalyan Singh, who floated his own outfit after quitting the BJP.
C.P. Thakur, the Union health and family welfare minister, is the �odd� face among the campaigners. A Brahmin from Bihar, the health minister has no base in Uttar Pradesh that he can tap unlike Bihar chief minister Laloo Prasad Yadav, who has been pulling crowds for the Congress.
Even disgruntled members of the Cabinet, such as coal and mines minister Ramvilas Paswan and labour minister Sharad Yadav, are slugging it out on the Uttar Pradesh battlefield.
Sharad�s junior, Muni Lall, who is not known for oratorical skills, has been pressed into the BJP�s service. �The point here is to field Muni Lall as a Dalit leader,� says a ministry official.
Satyanarain Jatiya, minister for social justice and empowerment, briefly toured Agra and Meerut.
Maneka Gandhi and B.C. Khanduri, ministers of state with independent charge, have also been missing from their offices, campaigning in Uttaranchal.
Ministers from the south, such as Murasoli Maran and T.R. Baalu, have remained behind in New Delhi � but only because they are not familiar with the Hindi heartland.
Demanding a 7 per cent hike in dearness allowance, more than 5.66 lakh state government employees backed by 17 trade unions took mass casual leave on January 31.
The government pleaded that it was in a fiscal crisis and sanctioned a 4 per cent DA instalment from February.
Since the 1990s, the pay bill of state government employees has increased by 14.22 per cent annually and the pension bill by 24.47 per cent while government revenue has gone up by just about 11 per cent. In 1994-95, the pay and pension package increased to 45.72 per cent of the state�s revenue. This fiscal, the state is spending 68 per cent of its revenue to pay salaries and pensions.
When the chief minister refused to grant any further hike in dearness allowance, the trade unions called a two-day strike on February 13 and 14. Union leaders claimed the strike was successful as more than 95 per cent employees, including hospital staff, did not report for work. Unions threatened that if the government did not pay up the entire seven per cent increase in dearness allowance, employees would go on an indefinite strike from February 26.
However, after a meeting with the chief minister late last evening, trade unions have fallen silent. The government has taken steps to ensure that employees pay a heavy price for going on strike and disrupting normal functioning of state departments.
After a Cabinet meeting, the chief minister declared a list of essential services. This include sanitation, water supply, hospitals, printing press, commercial taxes, excise, treasury and accounts, registration, transport, jail, electricity, milk supply, municipalities and municipal corporations.
These government departments become essential services from February 25, a day before the trade unions� date to launch the indefinite strike.
Government employees going on strike from February 26 will face harsh actions equivalent to break-in-service. Punishment will be harsher for veteran employees.
In March 2000, the Digvijay Singh government amended the Madhya Pradesh Government Servant Superannuation Act which had a provision for sacking employees and officials with unsatisfactory job records once they completed 25 years in service and 55 years of age.
Divisional forest officer Sanjay Singh, a 1991 batch IFS officer, was whisked away from a guesthouse near Nauhatta at 12 noon yesterday and handed a death sentence by a Naxalite kangaroo court at Rehal village. Policemen found his body in an open patch two hours after he was shot from close range.
The chief minister has ordered immediate action even as angry demonstrators today disrupted rail and road traffic at various places in Rohtas district to protest Singh�s killing by the banned outfit.
An official spokesman said the chief minister asked chief secretary S.N. Biswas and home secretary U.N. Panjiar to personally oversee the operation to apprehend the killers. However, no one has been arrested so far.
State police chief R.R. Prasad has sworn a �fitting and more violent retaliation� against militancy, but his words must have rung hollow to Sanjay�s family as they bade a touching farewell to the �brave officer�. For the past one year, the state government has stood mute witness to a series of incidents that showed how the forest department�s battle against the several illegal quarries within forest areas was being compounded by a combination of vested political interests and ultra Left militancy.
The illegal stone quarrying in Rohtas district, bordering Uttar Pradesh�s Mirzapur district, was destroying the hill range and depleting the forest cover. State forest minister Jagtanand Singh, who called the quarry lobby a �mafia�, had launched a crusade against the deforestation. Sanjay Singh was his man on the ground.
The forest officer faced opposition from the quarry owners, the MCC and even the BJP. Eager not to antagonise the owners, part of its upper-caste votebank, the main Opposition party sought his removal. It accused the government of not taking any initiative on the owners� demand to regularise the illegal quarries by denotifying the forest land � a move not permissible under a Supreme Court order.
The MCC, which had sided with the quarry labourers, charged Singh with persecuting the poor. The police, on the other hand, accused the Naxalites of taking a cut from the owners.
The minister refused to budge under pressure from the �stone mafia�. �Everybody looked at the problem from their own side without trying to offer a solution. Violence was inevitable,� said Tridev Chowdhary, a social worker at Bhabua.
For the last six months, Rohtas� Karwandi block witnessed violent showdowns between the labourers and the police and forest forces. On February 6, the police opened fire when quarry workers, instigated by the owners, began pelting stones. A labourer, Dhaneswar Chowdhary, was killed.
The MCC, thirsting for revenge after two of its members were killed in a police raid, took this opportunity to join the battle.
Nothing sells on television in the subcontinent like cricket and if Sony clinches the deal, it will be the second biggest sports channel in the country. It is not known if Sony will telecast the matches on its SET channel or start a separate sports channel. So far, SET has been a bit player in sports broadcasting.
Global Cricket Corporation (GCC), half-owned by Murdoch�s Newscorp, and SET confirmed today that they were in �advanced negotiations to license SET the Indian television rights� to broadcast a six-year package of the ICC cricket championships.
These would include the ICC cricket World Cups in 2003 and 2007 and three ICC knockout tournaments. A possible 200 one-day internationals will be telecast on Sony if the deal goes through, placing the channel at par with ESPN STAR Sports in the run for cricket matches. ESPN STAR is a 50:50 venture between the American network and Murdoch�s STAR group.
The deal does not include matches other than those conducted by the ICC. The rights for other ODI series are vested with the cricket boards of the host countries.
Neither SET nor GCC sources were willing to go into the details of the negotiations but the industry grapevine has it that Sony bid a whopping $370 million for the rights, beating ESPN Star Sports and Prasar Bharati. One report had it that Sony�s bid was marginally more than what ESPN Star had offered, but a sports channel executive said he would not be surprised if the Sony bid was �nearer to twice the amount� of ESPN Star.
Television executives dread a situation in which channels earn telecast rights for whopping amounts that cannot be recouped from the market. An example executives cite is that of Doordarshan that had won rights to telecast matches hosted by the BCCI for five years beginning 2000 for over Rs 550 crore. Buddha Films, contracted by Doordarshan to market the matches, is said to be desperately trying to sell time to advertisers without much success.
The GCC-Worldsport Group (GCC-WSG) combine won the rights in 2000 to market six years of ICC events despite bidding lower than Zee. ICC justified its decision by saying the group was financially more sound. Subsequently, Zee�s Subhash Chandra hit the ceiling, cited bias and predicted a split in the cricket world.
It was presumed by the industry that since GCC-WSG had got the marketing rights, the awarding of the lucrative Indian telecasting rights to ESPN Star was a foregone conclusion. That, apparently, has been upset by the Sony bid.
While it is confirmed that SET is negotiating the cable and satellite rights, there is some confusion on the terrestrial telecasting rights. This is a highly sensitive issue because Doordarshan will be under intense pressure to show World Cup and other major matches featuring India.
In the past, ICC has awarded terrestrial telecasting rights to national broadcasters. Unless it does the same, or unless SET re-negotiates terrestrial rights with Doordarshan, the public service broadcaster will not be able to telecast the ICC matches.
Tarun Gogoi�s government was left with egg on its face after Fernandes suffered minor injuries when the vehicle he was travelling in met with an accident at the busy Fancy Bazar area of the city.
Official sources said the state home commissioner would conduct the probe and submit the report within 15 days. Assam police have also ordered their own investigation because of the seriousness of the lapse.
Though the report on the probe conducted by inspector general of police (security) Wati Ao was submitted to the government this evening, officials were tight-lipped about its contents.
Fernandes was in the state to campaign for Samata Party candidate Rashidul Haque for the February 21 Lok Sabha bypoll to the Kaliabor seat. He left for Manipur yesterday afternoon.
Sources said heads were likely to roll in the police department for the �serious goof-up�. In the line of fire, they said, were the Morigaon and city police chiefs who allegedly failed to ensure the pilot and escort vehicles for the defence minister.
A high-ranking police official � who has handled security for top politicians � said any Central leader has to be provided a �centralised security ring� by the state government from the point of origin of travel back to the point of departure from the state. This is apart from the district-wise security cover.
So different � and misleading � can the public and private faces of the politicians be at times.
A day after chief minister Vilasrao Deshmukh declared that the Congress was ready to face a mid-term poll, NCP MP Praful Patel gave a �fitting� reply. �If the Congress is ready to face the mid-term poll, so are we.�
But then, it was all for public consumption, leaders of both sides said. With zilla parishad elections round the corner, where both parties are contesting as much against each other as against the BJP and the Shiv Sena, they �reserve� the right to call each other names.
But that�s that. Don�t expect a �divorce� too soon, as parliamentary affairs minister Pramod Mahajan predicted last week. Congress and NCP leaders insist that they don�t mean what they say in public.
�The democratic front government will not fall. These are mere political outbursts,� Maharashtra Congress president Govindrao Adik said, referring to the pot shots the parties were taking at each other.
Adik saw �nothing wrong� in the public posturing of the leaders on both sides.
�Ideological differences between the two parties are bound to crop up during electioneering,� he said.
In the run-up to the just-concluded municipal polls, Deshmukh publicly called the NCP opportunist, urging people to vote it out. At an Ahmednagar rally last week, he scoffed at Pawar�s ambition to become the Prime Minister one day, saying he had too few MPs to realise his dreams.
A Deshmukh aide said the chief minister had political compulsions to �target� Pawar, especially in areas where the NCP had a better chance of winning than the Congress.
The Congress leader justified Deshmukh�s fumings, saying Pawar had taken similar pot shots at Congress president Sonia Gandhi in the past.
Sure enough, NCP leaders said they understood why Deshmukh attacked Pawar at Congress rallies. �We never take such remarks personally. We know who they are aimed at,� a Pawar confidant said.
For all their public posturings, both parties know where they stand in the state, with the BJP and the Shiv Sena breathing down the government�s neck.
�The Congress knows as well as we do that it can never form a government on its own,� a senior NCP leader said.
Countered a Congress leader: �The NCP stood exposed in the municipal elections. It bagged only 11 seats in Mumbai compared to our 61 in Mumbai. Without an alliance, NCP is hardly a force to reckon with.�
The Congress and the NCP had an uneasy relationship from the start. They joined hands to form the coalition after the last Assembly elections largely to keep the Sena and the BJP out of power.
The relations soured when Deshmukh ordered a probe into the controversial Enron project, okayed by none other than Pawar as chief minister in the mid-nineties.
Despite a pullout threat by Pawar, the chief minister ordered a judicial inquiry, intensifying the feuds.
Pawar retaliated by supporting Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee in the BJP-sponsored, controversial anti-terrorism Ordinance. He also invited Vajpayee to his birthday party, a political gesture the Prime Minister, in search of new allies, gracefully accepted.
Angry with the overt passes Pawar made at the BJP, the Congress high command said no to a NCP proposal for a municipal alliance, only to realise the mistake later.
The apex court today set aside a Madras High Court eviction order, which said the tenant in question was a foreigner and would not suffer hardship as she stayed �mostly away� from her rented accommodation in Chennai. �The approach adopted by the high court is perverse,� the court said.
A division bench of Justice R.C. Lahoti and Justice P. Venkatarama Reddy said: �The high court has clearly exceeded its revisional jurisdiction in interfering with the orders of the authorities below.�
Irene, a German citizen, was given accommodation on a monthly rent of Rs 200 by T.M.P. Mahadevan, a professor of philosophy at Madras University. Irene became Mahadevan�s �disciple�, the petition on her behalf argued. �Having seen her deep love in his philosophy�, Mahadevan, the petition said, vacated two tenants on the ground floor portions of the disputed premises and refused to take market rent from her.
After Mahadevan�s death, his associates became trustees of the Philosophy Trust of Mahadevan and wanted Irene to vacate the premises on the grounds that the Trust required more space.
Generally, in eviction cases, the arguments centre on illegal subletting by a tenant or of owners requiring more space. But in both cases there has to be conclusive proof. �Irene shares the accommodation with her associates like a care-taker, an assistant and other staff and hence there was no question of her subletting the premises,� her lawyer T. Raja argued.
Senior counsel M.N. Krishnamani, who also appeared for Irene, told the apex court the high court had erred in concluding that a foreigner would not suffer hardship if ordered to vacate rented premises.

Another fact to consider– seventeen hand-ground glass lenses are a key component of every Slurpee machine! The lenses, which are treated with a special patented polymer called "intonorumorine," separate and refract the beams of heated light which keep Slurpees in a perpetual near-frozen state. Blue light is allowed to pass undisturbed to blueberry and blue raspberry, whereas only orange light is allowed into the Mango Bango chamber. Cross-contamination of the light sources is a definite no-no, and apparently yields awful flavors. You can simulate some of these effects on your friends by covering a flashlight with thin, colored plastic. Aim the flashlight at your friend's Slurpee, and dare them to drink it afterwards! Be sure to use a beam color different than the Slurpee. You can even change the taste while your friend is drinking, by using two flashlights– just be careful to never cross the beams!

Topical - The Things Jesus Knew, pt4(Mark)
The Things Jesus Knew, Part IV
Gospel of Mark
January 30, 2000
Verses on the omniscience of God:
"The Mighty One, God, the LORD! The Mighty One, God, the LORD! He knows! And let Israel know! If this has been in rebellion or disobedience to the LORD, do not spare us this day. (Joshua 22:22 NIVUS)
"Do not keep talking so proudly or let your mouth speak such arrogance, for the LORD is a God who knows, and by him deeds are weighed. (1 Samuel 2:3 NIVUS)
but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming. (Psalms 37:13 NIVUS)
would not God have discovered it, since he knows the secrets of the heart? (Psalms 44:21 NIVUS)
The LORD knows the thoughts of man; he knows that they are futile. (Psalms 94:11 NIVUS)
for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust. (Psalms 103:14 NIVUS)
Though the LORD is on high, he looks upon the lowly, but the proud he knows from afar. (Psalms 138:6 NIVUS)
Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. (Matthew 6:8 NIVUS)
He said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of men, but God knows your hearts. What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight. (Luke 16:15 NIVUS)
God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. (Acts 15:8 NIVUS)
And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will. (Romans 8:27 NIVUS)
and again, "The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile." (1 Corinthians 3:20 NIVUS)
Nevertheless, God's solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness." (2 Timothy 2:19 NIVUS)
if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment. (2 Peter 2:9 NIVUS)
whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. (1 John 3:20 NIVUS)
Scripture: 2Chronicles 16
Asa, king of Judah (southern kingdom)
Baasha, king of Israel (northern kingdom)
Ben Hadad, king of Aram (enemies of God)
Hanani, prophet of God
God, whose eyes range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him.
(1 Peter 5:8 ¶ Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.)
Twenty silent years --- of backsliding.
Jesus did many miracles. Last week we learned about those he knew that he had already accomplished. This week we will learn about those he knew he was going to accomplish. We see miracles of restoration and creation, but also of destruction.
IV. Knowledge of Miraculous Action About to be Taken
A. Restorative
1. The Healing of a Boy with an Evil Spirit (9:17-29)
B. Creative
1. Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand (6:30-44)
2. Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand (8:2-5)
C. Destructive
1. The Withered Fig Tree (11:12-14, 20-21)
IV. Knowledge of Miraculous Action about to be Taken
A. Restorative
1. The Healing of a Boy with an Evil Spirit (9:17-29)
This instance of Jesus' advance knowledge of miraculous healing is not so obvious. But there is an example here of omniscience in Jesus' response to the man with the demonized son when he said, "But if you can do anything take pity on us and help us." Jesus questioned him on his statement. Jesus asked him, "If you can?" And then he said, "Everything is possible for him who believes." The man then said, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!" Jesus then casts the deaf and mute spirit out of the boy. Jesus knew what he was about to do in response to the man's request for faith. He also knows what he will do in response to ours.
But note that Mk. 9:19 is not Jesus' anger at the disciples, but the people. They must all pray in concert with the disciples' efforts. Mk. 9:29 tells us the issue here is prayer – believing prayer. We must participate with Jesus if we want to see miracles. In this case the unbelief of the people was hindering the work of the disciples. But not that they themselves were guiltless in this case either. Note that the teachers of the law were arguing with them (9:14). "For the eyes of God range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him." Here is a case where there was no strength because there was little commitment. See Mk. 6:5, "He could not do any miracles there."
B. Creative
1. Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand (6:30-44)
Here we have a miracle of a different type. Instead of healing or cleansing, it is creative. Jesus asks the disciples to respond to their own sense of responsibility to feed the crowd that had gathered for his teaching. They can't imagine purchasing that much bread. So Jesus tells them to go find what they have. They return with five loaves and two fish. Now Jesus could create something out of nothing, but he doesn't do that. He multiplies what they have, and that is still creative. But he knows he is going to do that. That is why he asks for what they had, and that is the lesson he intends to impart. He knows what we need in relation to what we have. And he asks for what we have. If we devote what we have to him, he will see that it is enough, even more than enough because they picked up twelve baskets of leftovers.
2. Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand (8:2-13)
Now this miracle is a replay of the previous except that the crowd is 4,000 and they have been with Jesus for three days. This time the incentive of compassion comes initially from Jesus and he poses the question to the disciples about how to handle their hunger. They are clueless so he asks them again how many loaves they can find. They come up with seven loaves and a few fish which he multiplies with seven baskets leftover. Again, he asks for what they have, knowing that he will recreate sufficiency from it. He also knows when to prompt a retake on a lesson he is trying to teach us – that he himself is all we need.
The disciples were in faith process just like we are. Jesus was stretching them because he wanted to strengthen them. "For the eyes of God range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him." Jesus was cultivating their commitment.
C. Destructive
1. The Withered Fig Tree (11:12-14, 20-21)
Not all miracles heal, cleanse or create. Just like providence can be either positive or negative to teach those who would see God according to their particular need, here we have a negative miracle to prove a particular point. Jesus notices a fig tree in leaf (alive) and went to it (as he was then going to Jerusalem) but did not find the fruit that one would expect (like he would experience in Jerusalem). He cursed the tree and his disciples heard it. The next day they found the tree withered from the roots (entirely dead). Jesus knew and intended this teaching effect of his curse for that generation and all those generations yet to come until he comes again.
In 13:28-29 he amplifies the lesson from the fig tree that when it again bears leaves (comes to life – Jerusalem re-inhabited by Jews), his return is imminent. His advance knowledge of its withering in one day is also advance knowledge of its restoration nearly 2,000 years later. We must bear the fruit of faith in him and his return lest we also wither and die from the curse of faithlessness. And he went on to explain that faith in God leads to forgiveness and answered prayer.
Conclusion: Isaiah 63:7-10
God became their Savior, but they rebelled, so he became their enemy.
You are familiar with Rom. 8:31, "If God is for us, who can be against us?"
But we might also state the truth of this verse this way, "If God is against us, who can be for us?"
The arm of the Lord is longer than you think.
Do we believe in one God or two?
Many people believe the God of the OT changed in the NT.
But Mal. 3:6 tells us that the Lord does not change.
We cannot get away with trespass against the God of the New Covenant any more than they could get away with trespass against the God of the Old Covenant. He is the same God. The difference is that he has offered us the remedy of grace in his Son Jesus Christ. But trespassing against God by rejecting Christ carries the same penalty – rejection by God.
Heb. 10:26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,
27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.
28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
29 How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him who said, "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," and again, "The Lord will judge his people."
31 It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Rom. 5:1 offers us peace with God through Christ. But if we do not accept his terms of peace, we remain his enemy.
And if we later prove by our life and actions that we have turned out to be no friend of God in spite of his terms of peace, we will find out that he is still our enemy.
There are many people in American churches who reject Christ even in the midst of worshipping him. They may have started well. They may have had what appeared to be true faith at the time. But the culture has siphoned them off. They have been sucked down to the lower level. They now believe the lie that they can serve the culture and Christ too. HE IS A JEALOUS GOD!!! He must have your priority. He must have your allegiance. He must have your obedience. He must own your life. Have you sold out to God at some point in your life? Are you still bankrupt except by his grace? Or have you started to build up your own account of self-sufficiency again? Broken-ness may come at high personal cost. But unless we remain there we have wasted the most expensive gift we have, or will ever, receive. To be broken for Christ is to be filled by him.
We have discussed his miracles of restoration and creation. This is what he does for those who are fully committed to him. He heals them and he provides for them. We might think, "If God is for us to heal and feed us, then who can be against us?" But we must bear the fruit of our healing and our care. He offered the nation permanent healing, but they failed to pray. He offered them permanent provision, but they failed to understand. So not all his miracles heal and create. Jesus can also destroy. He can be against us – like the fig tree illustrates Israel. His miracles can also be destructive. And he reserves those for all who remain his enemies – or return to the ranks of his enemies.
Let us search our lives this day to see if we truly be in Christ. Let us search our lives this day to see if we will truly remain in Christ beyond any shadow of doubt. These are perilous times and they demand the question. Lest he say, "How long must I remain with you?" or we say, "Show us another sign and then we might truly believe who you are."

WASHINGTON – Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders said that economic security is essential to Americans achieving true freedom, a central tenet in his political philosophy of "democratic socialism."
The Vermont senator said the idea has roots in the legacies of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
"Real freedom must include economic security. That was Roosevelt's vision 70 years ago. It is my vision today," Sanders said in a speech at Georgetown University Thursday. "It is a vision that we have not yet achieved and it is time that we did."
Sanders' comments came during a defining speech about his views as he seeks to challenge front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton for the party's nomination. Clinton has built a large lead over Sanders in national polls and has an edge in Iowa, the first presidential caucus. Sanders hopes victories in Iowa and in the New Hampshire primary will help him undermine Clinton's dominance and create momentum in a lengthy fight for delegates.
Clinton in recent days has offered a veiled critique of Sanders for his support of a single-payer health care system, which she says will require middle-class Americans to pay higher taxes. Much of Sanders' agenda would be paid for by steep tax increases on the wealthy and Wall Street transactions. He has said his health care proposal would save families significant amounts of money by eliminating waste in the system.
"Health care should be a right of all people, not a privilege. This is not a radical idea," he said.
In explaining his views, Sanders chose in Roosevelt an icon of the Democratic party and sought to connect his values with Democratic voters, presenting himself as a vessel for some of the late president's unfinished business.
The speech cited Roosevelt's "Second Bill of Rights" from his 1944 State of the Union address which asserted Americans should have the right to a job with a living wage, health care, education and economic protections for the elderly.
Sanders was not the first to seek a symbolic connection to FDR: Clinton formally kicked off her campaign at New York's Roosevelt Island last spring in a speech that touched on her "four fights," a reference to the "four freedoms" Roosevelt laid out in 1941.
Sanders said Roosevelt was responsible for much of the social safety net enjoyed by millions of Americans today, from Social Security, the federal minimum wage, unemployment insurance, the abolition of child labor, the 40 hour work week, collective bargaining and strong banking regulations.
He said at the time, "almost everything he proposed, almost every program, every idea he introduced was called 'socialist."' But he said the federal government's role in providing economic security for Americans had become "the fabric of our nation and the foundation of the middle class."
Without mentioning Clinton by name, Sanders said his candidacy was based on creating a political revolution of supporters to demand a better deal for the middle class.
He added, "So the next time that you hear me attacked as a socialist – like tomorrow – remember this: I don't believe government should take over the grocery store down the street or own the means of production, but I do believe that the middle class and the working families of this country who produce the wealth of this country deserve a decent standard of living."
The address included a reference to what some Democrats view as Clinton's inevitability. "I am not running for president because it is my turn," Sanders said. "That's not why I'm running for president. But I am running for president in order for all of us to be able to live in a nation of hope and opportunity."
During a question-and-answer session, Sanders said he identifies as a democratic socialist because "that, in fact, is my vision. My vision is not just making modest changes around the edge. It is transforming American society."
Sanders also addressed the recent attacks in Paris, urging the U.S. to lead a "new and strong coalition of Western powers, Muslim nations and countries like Russia" to fight the Islamic State in a coordinated way. He said that effort should include the sharing of counter-terror intelligence, stop terrorist financing and end the exporting of "extremist ideologies."

Lulu was booked for 'Later with Jools.' for the pre-summer series where she performed the stunningly catchy 'Sweetest Thing'. This is Lulu's most pop-sounding single to date but loses nothing of her signature sound - tracing an arc between dance, soul, R&B and pop to create something truly brilliant. Remixes of the single will come from Laconic, Sweater Beats, Armeria and Jezus Million.
In addition to this release you can hear lulu vocal the new Gang Colours single as well as a brand new track of hers 'Can't Stop' appearing in the forthcoming Annie Mac Presents compilation.
This summer Lulu has hit the festival scene pretty hard - wowing crowds with her unique and distinctive style of stage get-up and playing packed out sets across the UK and Europe. This autumn she heads out on tour to support Ellie Goulding and will play some of the UK's biggest and most prominent venues. Following that, she joins the 'Annie Mac Presents' tour in November.

Generating Traffic
Generating Revenues
All right friends, this is the last and most important article in this series. Its titled "Generating Revenues" through your blog/website. Before we begin, let clear out some myths. You might meet a lot of friends/colleagues etc who will boast that they are earning enormous amounts through their blog/website. You might even receive "Spam" emails claiming to make you earn $500 – $1000 per month from online advertisements. All this might encourage you to start your own blog/website. The truth is "Only quality contents and quality traffic" will help you generate revenues through your website. The other most important factor is "Patience".
Enough of my blah blah and lets get on to the business of how to generate revenues for your blog/website.
A) The most important factor is "Quality Contents". Now that you have genuine original contents on your blog/website, it will be easier for you to generate revenues.
B) Selecting the best network. There are many online advertising networks. You need to decide, which is the best network for you. How do we decide that?
i) Once you are approved with a network, view the campaigns they are offering.
ii) Select the campaign, which best fits the contents of your website.
iii) Since I have travel blog/website, I will like to select a network, which has a campaign on online travel information or a network, with holiday packages campaigns etc.
C) After you have decided on the campaign, view the banners available for that campaign and accordingly decide, where you will place that banner on your website.
D) Best banner sizes used Internationally are "125×125 pixels, 250×250 pixels, 300×250 pixels, 468×60 pixels, 728×90 pixels"
E) You can simultaneously apply for "Google Adsense" account as well.
F) According to me there should not be more than 4 advertisements on your blog/website which also includes your google adsense.
G) Avoid uploading irrelevant advertisements on your blog/website. For e.g if I have a travel information blog/website, I would avoid uploading "Online Casino, Dating" etc advertisements.
H) Avoid uploading huge advertisement banners, which covers most of your webpage.
I) Avoid pop-up advertisements as it simply irritates a customer, who thinks it could be a virus or a bug etc.
It is quiet simple to create a beautiful blog/website with relevant advertisement and generate revenue. If you have patience, and if your contents are good, you will start earning instantly. Please keep the concept of updating your blog/website regularly, so that customers keep on visiting it regularly.
My next series, will be "Industry Best Practices". I will try and convey on what are termed as "Fraudulent Or Junk" leads.

In biological phenomena like osmosis, the rate of flow of water
molecules in or out of biological compartments depends on the solute
concentration and on other forces, like hydrostatic pressure. A
similar example is the passive transport of ions in and out the cell
membrane. In this paper, we address the problem of faithfully
modelling these kind of phenomena with an adequate process calculus.
We enhance the ambient calculus stochastic semantics with functional
rates, which are calculated by taking into account the volume of
ambients and the surrounding environment. A model of osmosis in
plant cells will be used as an example to show the new features of
our calculus.

What if traditional high school transcripts -- lists of courses taken, grades earned and so forth -- didn't exist? That's the ambition of a new education reform movement, which wants to rebuild how high schools record the abilities of students -- and in turn to change the way colleges evaluate applicants. Sounds like quite a task. But the idea is from a group with considerable clout and money: more than 100 private schools around the country, including such elite institutions as the Dalton School and the Spence School in New York City, plus such big guns as the Cranbrook Schools in Michigan, the Phillips Academy in Massachusetts and Miss Porter's School in Connecticut.
The organizers of the effort believe all kinds of high schools and colleges are ready for change, but they argue that it will take the establishment to lead this particular revolution. Organizers believe that if more than 100 such elite private schools embrace a new transcript, they will attract supporters in higher ed who will embrace the approach for fear of losing top applicants (both in terms of their academics and ability to pay). And then the plan could spread -- over perhaps a decade -- to public high schools as well. Along the way, the group hopes to use the ideas of competency-based education -- in which demonstration of mastery matters and seat time does not -- to change the way high schoolers are taught.
The gap between good public high schools and private high schools in terms of college admissions is closing fast if not already closed for some, so this is an attempt to put public schools a decade behind? The advantage of private schools, high schools or colleges, seems to diminish with many resources become increasingly and widely available online.And then the plan could spread -- over perhaps a decade -- to public high schools as well.

One of my client sites uses Qode's Bridge theme.
With certain caveats (their documentation is awful, for example) I'm pretty happy with it, but a recent problem had me completely stumped and I was forced to go through their support ticket system to find a solution.
The page looked great but I couldn't click in any of the contact form fields in order to enter text.
My initial Google searches didn't help so I'm publishing this here in the hope that someone, somewhere is helped by it in the future. Aren't I nice?
The Bridge theme contact page has two elements to it: the admin settings and the page settings.
Admin settings are reached from the Qode Options menu in the left-hand WordPress menu. They include settings such as whether or the Google Map is shown, and more importantly the mail settings for the contact form itself.
The page settings are contained within the page itself, so you have to navigate to Pages and then find your contact form there and click Edit.
By default my contact page was set up with Visual Composer. Hover over the text area where the address appears and you can edit to enter your own or client's address information:
My problem, however was more hidden.
The settings for the actual Visual Composer Row were incorrect. To get to these you need to edit the Row Settings using the pencil icon to the top-right of the column:
Then when in these settings I had to change the Row Type from "In Grid" to "Full Width".
This solved the problem. The page looked identical but the contact form could not be entered and filled in.

JERUSALEM — The United States offered Israel an unprecedented $30 billion of military aid over 10 years on Thursday, bolstering its closest Mideast ally and ensuring the state's military edge over its neighbors.
The package was meant in part to offset U.S. plans to offer Saudi Arabia advanced weapons and air systems that would greatly improve the Arab country's air force. Israel has said it has no opposition to the Saudi aid.
The deal represents a 25 percent rise in U.S. military aid to Israel, from a current $2.4billion a year to $3 billion a year over the next 10 years.
Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns said the package was meant to back peace-seeking countries like Israel and moderate Arab states in the region to counter U.S. adversaries such as Iran.
"The only way to peace is to show countries like Iran and Syria that the U.S. will remain the primary factor of stability in this region," Burns said at Israel's Foreign Ministry. "We are going to stand up for our friends."
The U.S. has expressed grave concern over Iran and Syria's backing of the Hezbollah militia in Lebanon. In addition, the United States charges Iran is backing Shiite insurgents in its war in Iraq and trying to develop nuclear weapons.
The United States and Israel also accuse Iran of developing nuclear bombs, a charge Tehran denies. Iran's president has said Israel should be wiped off the map and Israel considers Iran its main enemy.
Burns said the deal would ensure Israel's qualitative edge over its neighbors. The United States is also proposing a large weapons package to Saudi Arabia, which has historically been an Israeli enemy but has indicated a willingness to attend a U.S.-backed peace conference with Israel in the fall. Saudi Arabia and other Sunni-led Arab allies of the United States are also wary of Iran's increasing influence in the region.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has said he understands the U.S. need to bolster Saudi Arabia in the face of Iran. The military aid to Israel would guarantee its strategic superiority despite upgrades to other Arab countries' defense systems, Olmert has said.
Burns and Israeli Foreign Minister Director-General Aharon Abramovitch signed the agreement stating the "unshakable commitment of the United States to Israel's security."
The aid package to Israel was finalized in June in Washington by President Bush and Olmert.
The U.S. has long-standing commitments to Israel and to Egypt, which in 1979 became the first Arab state to make peace with Israel. Egypt currently receives $1.3 billion a year in military assistance.
Israel's central bank chief, Stanley Fischer, said the U.S. aid is of "critical importance" to Israel, whose defense budget constitutes about 10 percent of its Gross Domestic Product.
The Bush administration must still receive congressional approval for the aid deal, but Burns said he believed there would be little opposition.

15.5-inch Walnut and Beech 8-in-1 Multi-Game Compendium Set with Slide-Out Boards and Legs
This 15.5-inch walnut and beech 8-in-1 multi-game set is very unique in design. It has two slide-out boards for chess, checkers /draughts, backgammon, solitaire, etc. The inside of the case holds other game pieces such as dominoes, dice, cribbage, etc. The body of the case is made with walnut wood, whether the rest are with beech wood. The light and dark color combination of the two woods shows an interesting contrast. The corners are rounded. This makes the case more resistant to impact and less likely to injure the careless. The legs protect the underside of the case. Surface finishing is always of high quality that is silky-smooth to the touch.

'Eh, don't worry too much,' said Garovel. 'It'll be fine.'
'Are you sure?!'
'Yeahhh,' said Garovel unconvincingly.
Hector just gave him a look.
'Alright, just relax,' said Garovel. 'These "mummy guys," as you call them, were doing this sort of thing for a VERY long time before pictures were ever a factor. They are insanely reliable. Trust me.'
Hector didn't see how he had much choice otherwise. 'Okay, so what if Roman gets the message but is too busy to meet up with us? Or just decides not to? I mean, the Rainlords ARE fugitives from the Vanguard.'
'Ugh, I hope that doesn't happen. Because then it would be up to me to guide us back to Warrenhold.'
'But you don't know the route.'
'I know it's near a place called Capaporo. Given time, I'm sure I could suss out the right path.'
'Given time, huh?'
'Don't look at me like that. I'm trying my best here. If you've got a better plan, I'd love to hear it.'
'Not saying I do. But I might be able to help you more if you didn't keep shit from me for no reason.'
'Oh, come on, that was a great surprise.'
'Are you even gonna tell me who or what that mummy guy was, exactly?'
'Well, the truth is, even with my incredible powers of exposition, that is not an easy task.'
'They're a rather mysterious bunch, those couriers. There's not a whole lot that's actually known about them. For instance, no one even knows WHY they do what they do. We just know that they've BEEN doing it for thousands of years now. And that they're really good at it. Though, maybe a bit slow by today's standards.'
'Huh. Well, what DO you know about them, then?'

In Genoa, Illinois, the local chapter of the United Way notifies the Boy Scouts that they will cease providing funds because of the group's religious discrimination. The Genoa-Kingston United Way board typically provides $1,250 each year, which isn't much, but if other United Way chapters follow suit the financial impact could become quite large.
The United Way letter states:
"It is the opinion of the board that there is sufficient reason to question the Boy Scout's compliance with the United Way Charter, which prohibits support of agencies that discriminate on the basis of religion."
Dennis Cook, spokesman for the Two Rivers Council in St. Charles, Illinois, insists that the Boy Scouts won't be changing:
"Being a member of the Boy Scouts of America is not a right, it's a privilege. ...
For the last 80 years, our position has included a duty to God."
So the Boy Scouts don't deny that they are engaged in religious discrimination. At the same time, though, they will try to deny that this should result in their being treated any differently.

Causes of edema include
- Eating too much salt
- Sunburn
- Heart failure
- Kidney disease
- Liver problems from cirrhosis
- Pregnancy
- Problems with lymph nodes, especially after mastectomy
- Some medicines
- Standing or walking a lot when the weather is warm

Eye Diseases
Some eye problems are minor and don't last long. But some can lead to a permanent loss of vision.
Common eye problems include
- Refractive errors
- Cataracts - clouded lenses
- Glaucoma - a disorder caused by damage to the optic nerve
- Retinal disorders - problems with the nerve layer at the back of the eye
- Macular degeneration - a disease that destroys sharp, central vision
- Diabetic eye problems
- Conjunctivitis - an infection also known as pinkeye
Your best defense is to have regular checkups, because eye diseases do not always have symptoms. Early detection and treatment could prevent vision loss. See an eye care professional right away if you have a sudden change in vision, if everything looks dim, or if you see flashes of light. Other symptoms that need quick attention are pain, double vision, fluid coming from the eye, and inflammation.
