I love the Old Testament, but I have spoken to many people in St Martin's, who have admitted to me that they really struggle with the Old Testament, and rarely if ever read it. So this morning, I want to explore the question of 'why bother with the Old Testament?'
I hope that as a result of today's talk, I will have encouraged you to be excited about the Old Testament, and want to start reading it regularly.
You may ask the question, why do we need to read the Old Testament at all? Why not just stick with the New Testament?
The problem with the OT
This to some people may seem an appealing idea, particularly as we have to admit that there are parts of the OT which are confusing, difficult, hard to understand. Did Noah really live to 950? Did God really destroy the world by sending a giant flood? What about all the wars? Isn't the God of the OT a scary, judgmental, angry God?
Many modern atheists are scathing about the God of the OT. Richard Dawkins writes 'The God of the OT is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction.'
So why don't we just cut out the OT? This was something Marcion did in the 2nd Century when he rejected the OT in its entirety, because he believed the God of the OT was wrathful and vengeful, and could not therefore have anything to do with the loving and all forgiving God of the NT. But he found that if you rejected the OT, you also had to reject a lot of the NT as well. He rejected all the apostles, except Paul. He kept 10 of Paul's letters, but he had them radically cut down to remove all OT references. He also rejected all the Gospels expect for Luke, which again he cut down.
One of the consequences of Marcion's proposed canon was that it helped to push the early church to develop its own authoritative list of inspired writings, which ultimately led to the formation of the canon of the New Testament as we have it today.
So why should we bother with the OT?
It's Full of Great Stories
If we got rid of the OT, or didn't bother with it, we would be losing some of the greatest and most exiting literature in the world. For example the creation story, the story of Adam and Eve, Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Ruth, Samson, David, Daniel and Jonah to name just a few. Some of the most beautiful poetry in the world is contained in the Psalms, and the Song of Songs, and we have some of the greatest wisdom of the world in the book of Proverbs. And then there is the teaching of the OT prophets such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, Elijah, Elisha, and Hosea to name just a few.
Also in the OT we find some of the most beautiful and wonderful descriptions of God and his love for us found anywhere in the Bible. 'For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.' (Ps 103:11-12)
But the OT is much more than just great literature, it is divinely inspired.
God breathed
In 2 Timothy 3:16 Paul writes 'All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness'. When we read this quote, when tend to think that Paul was writing about the Bible as we have it today, but remember that Paul wrote this letter in 66 or 67AD, whilst imprisoned in Rome, before many of the books of the New Testament were written and long before they were brought together. It is worth noting that the Synoptic Gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke are believed to have been written between AD 50 and AD70, and the Gospel of John was composed in the 80s or 90s, some considerable time after Paul wrote 2 Timothy.
Therefore when Paul talks about all Scripture being God breathed, he is in fact referring to the OT. Therefore we see that the OT is an important tool for teaching us about God.What we see as we read the OT, is God's love and concern for humanity, and how God often uses deeply flawed, weak, ordinary people to achieve his mighty purposes. People like Samson, a very controversial character, who would have benefited from attending an anger management course, and relationship counselling, and yet we are told the spirit of God was on him. Or David, who is described in 1 Samuel 13:14 as a man after God's own heart, and yet seduced and made another man's wife pregnant, and then to cover the pregnancy arranged for this man to be killed in battle. Or Moses, who despite having killed a man, and then fled into the desert, is called by God to lead the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt.
The OT has much to teach us and challenge us. We see in it what happens when God's people walk in faithful obedience to God's will, and what happens when they forsake God. But above all, we see God's heart for his people. How, despite the fact that they reject God again and again, God never gives up on his people. His love remains steadfast.
The OT has a tremendous amount to teach us about God, and our relationship with him.
The Bible Jesus read
For me one of the strongest arguments about why we should read the OT, is because it is the Bible that Jesus himself read, loved and used. And in Jesus' preaching and teaching, he refers to the OT again and again. To understand the teachings of Jesus, you need to have some understanding of the Old Testament.
For example, when Jesus was in the wilderness being tempted by Satan he responds by quoting from the Book of Deuteronomy. Three times Jesus responds to Satan's temptations by saying "It is written…" (Matthew 4)
If Jesus felt it was important to know the OT, then it is also important for us to know it. Jesus the fulfilment of OT prophecy
Not only did Jesus know the OT, he came to fulfil it. Jesus said "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfil them." (Matthew 5:17)
The OT looked forward to the coming of the Messiah, who would bring salvation to the world. For example 700 years before Christ was born, Isaiah 53 talked about suffering servant, a man of sorrows, despised and rejected by men, who was 'pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.' (Isaiah 53:5) Here is a prophecy about how Jesus would die on the cross for us.
There are over 300 references to the coming Messiah in Old Testament that were fulfilled by Jesus, including twenty-nine major prophecies fulfilled in a single day – the day he died.
Jesus is the one who was prophesied about in the OT, he is the fulfilment of Scripture. That is why he said 'You study the Scriptures diligently [the OT] because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me.' (John 5:39) And when the risen Jesus met the two disciples on the Emmaus road ' beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.' (Luke 24:27)
Jesus is the one who was prophesied about in the OT, he is the fulfilment of Scripture. That is why he said 'You study the Scriptures diligently [the OT] because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me.' (John 5:39) And when the risen Jesus met the two disciples on the Emmaus road ' beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.' (Luke 24:27)
How do we read the OT
This leads me onto the question, how do we read the OT. Many years ago I attempted to read the OT from start to finish, I sailed through Genesis, Exodus, but then things got a lot harder when I hit Leviticus, and the instructions about grain offerings, and burnt offerings, and cleansing from infectious skin diseases.
The best advice for reading the OT is start with the easy bits. It's like a crossword puzzle, you start with the easy parts first, which help you fill in the harder parts. The more we get to know and understand the OT, the more we find we understand.
But the main key to understanding the OT, is to know Jesus, because it is through the lens of Jesus that we read the OT.
Jesus fulfils God's story, history is HIS story. Right from the beginning of the OT you see Jesus' identity and mission begin to be revealed through the characters and teaching of the OT. For example, right at the beginning of the Bible we see how in the Garden of Eden, the first Adam disobeyed God, and chaos followed. And how in the NT, Jesus, who is described as the second Adam, obeyed God, and made it possible for chaos to be restored.
And when Abraham took his son Isaac to be offered as a sacrifice, here we have a picture of a God who is willing to give up everything that was most important to him, for you and for me, and it foreshadows Jesus' own death on the cross.
In Exodus we see a God who wants to set us free from slavery, and how the Israelite's were saved by the blood of the lamb, again foreshadowing Jesus, the Lamb of God, through whom we are saved by the shedding of his blood.
The deeper you go into understanding the OT, the closer you come to the heart of Jesus.Reading the OT without Jesus, is like going into a room with a light out. With the light out, you can feel your way around, and say this feels like a sofa, this feels like a picture, but with the light on you can see a sofa, you can see a picture, and much more as well. Jesus switches the light on, to give us understanding of what is in the OT.
G E Wright says "Christ is the key to the central contents of the Old Testament, but at the same time it is the Old Testament which provides the clue to Christ."
This is why it is so important that we do not neglect the OT.
Reading the OT
So going back to my original question, why should we bother with the OT?
- Because it is rich in wonderful stories
- Because it is God breathed, and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness'
- Because it is the Bible Jesus read
- Because Jesus is the fulfilment of OT prophecy
- If we are to fully understand and appreciate the NT, and who Jesus is, why he came, and what he has done for us, we need to understand and appreciate the OT.

Helping veterans get the disability benefits they deserve is what our law firm does every day. We've helped hundreds of veterans get the benefits they are rightfully entitled to. We would like to share one veteran's story with you.
Our client was in the United States Army from 1974 to 1977 specializing in Firecrew-Mortar; in 1977 he was honorably discharged. Because of a series of traumatic events that occurred while our client was on active duty he developed a number of problems; anxiety, depression, flashbacks to name a few. Our client dreamed of being a career soldier but served only 3 years active duty.
Before our client entered into the military he was known to be pleasant, outgoing and athletic, but when he returned something had changed. When he returned from the military he was irritable, jumpy and isolated himself from everyone. He no longer participated in family functions, played sports or attended neighborhood gatherings. Over the years his anxiety and depression worsened and he developed suicidal thoughts. He was unable to socialize or work around others, which hindered his ability to function in everyday life or hold down a job.
Our client filed a disability claim for these disorders in 2007 and was granted a rating for his condition in 2013, more than 6 years later. When he received his rating of 30% he decided to file an appeal and that's when we were able to step in and help this veteran.
In our appeal we assisted with obtaining an increased rating for "acquired psychiatric condition" from 30% to 70% with an effective date of 2007. We were able to get our client 8 ½ years of back payment for this increased rating. He was also deemed unemployable at the 100% rating with an effective date in 2009. The overall award granted was over $220,000.
No veteran should go it alone. It's important that if you're battling the VA that you have an experienced advocate by your side. Our firm has a strong military presence; with 4 of our attorneys being veterans, we understand what you're going through and are dedicated to helping you every step of the way.

Sarkodie is arguably the most popular "African" artiste in Nigeria. With the proximity of Ghana to our dear nation, the song which built a straight bridge between both music industries was You Go Kill Me, a song which was an early guest at the table of the Azonto trend.
Over the years, Sarkodie has proved to be one of the best rappers on the continent and with Nigeria's dominance worldwide, it is only natural that Obidi will seek to establish musical relationships with Nigerian artistes.
Having mad respect for 2baba, he is also a good friend to Ice Prince and in more times than one, he has hailed MI Abaga on a song. More than any other African, he has collaborated with our acts and you'll truly have a hard time explaining to a child that the fast rapping rapper isn't Nigerian but from Tema, Ghana and the language isn't some minority Nigerian language.
Here, we rank five of Sarkodie's input into the Nigerian musical scene (either as the owner of the song or a feature).
5. PON DI TING (ft Banky W)
Released some days before the Christmas day of 2013, the Masterkraft produced song was a major crossover hit which cemented Sarkodie's popularity in Nigeria.
Boasting two verses from the superstar and a rap verse from Banky, the song topped charts, had Mr Capable hold his verse down against one of the best in the continent as a rapper.
4. DANCE FLOOR Remix (2BABA ft Sarkodie)
The then anthem for a good time by 2baba was a bouncy and infectious tune which spread across Africa with the speed of light.
On the remix, the African Music godfather featured Sarkodie who delivered a fiery verse, rapping in English and dipping in Twi to build a fun feel around the song.
3. NO KISSING BABY (Patoranking ft Sarkodie)
Off his Girlie O success, Patoranking born Patrick Nnaemeka Okorie couldn't proceed with his career without tribute to God.
Seeming to be a deeply religious person, much of his videos feature an image of praise and his album was titled God Over Everything. But unlike the gospel sounding jams and the dancehall bangers that he's known to make, No Kissing Baby is an Afro Fusion song, fun as the creator and featuring an even more fun verse from Obidi.
2. ANOINTING (Mr. Eazi ft Sarkodie)
"The first time I ever recorded a song, I went straight from the banku joint to the studio, so I was sleepy. Some people say I sing like I don't really care. Like, 'Yo, bro, are you really singing?' That's banku." So does Mr. Eazi say in his interview with Vogue for a fashion issue.
Before Property, Mr Eazi leaned onto his Banku style until forced to adapt to the favored fast sounding beats.
Anointing was a major highlight of Mr Eazi's Banku days. Featuring a dope verse from Sarkodie, it was well received in both Ghana and Nigeria and served as a good run up to the Lagos to Accra project.
1. ABOKI Remix (Ice Prince ft Sarkodie, Khuli Chana, MI, Mercy Johnson and Wizkid)
Mercy Johnson might have sent people running to the remix of arguably Ice Prince's biggest song but it was the first voice on that posse cut that kept them coming back.
On a song that boasted multi national talent, GH's finest held his own, flexing lyrical muscle and name dropping and being the perfect introduction to one of the overwhelming songs at the time.

What is The AutoMoney Generator?
The development of technology becomes faster and faster with time. Now, there really are Forex trading solutions that are capable of generating significant profit's amount within a very short period of time. However, there is a great danger and risk hidden there. This is because greater part of these income-increasing products are actually scams and they do not really deliver profitable results to their users. On the contrary, people lose all their investment and remain with empty hands.
Therefore, in this review, we would like to warn you about another scam Forex trading system that emerged on the market recently – the Auto Money Generator, created by Paul Raven.
>> Visit Tested & Approved Robot <<
AutoMoney Generator By Paul Raven – Is it a Scam?
In the promo video of the system, an anonymous voice, claiming to be Mr. Raven, starts explaining how profitable and highly powerful his Forex trading software is. This is the first red flag, related to this auto-trading system. There is no actual person explaining real and proven facts, by providing evidence for their legitimacy and reliability. On the contrary, there is only a white dashboard with words written on in and a robotic voice reading them.
In fact there is a plenty of facts that speak for the scam origin of this auto-trading software. First of all, its creator is anonymous and it is obvious that he hides his personality and face on purpose. Secondly, the provided facts about his trading software are contradicting between each other. Paul Raven speaks of 97.9% success rate of his platform, then the percentage stated changes to 92%. It is the same with the promised daily profits this robot is said to be generating.
First, it is claimed that the AutoMoneyGenerator system is able to win up to $1000 per day, then the amount is changed to $600 per hour and $6000 per day. So, it is really obvious that Mr. Raven just fabricates non-existing trading results in order to mislead people into signing-up with his fraudulent platform. Therefore, based on the revealings we were able to make, we issue a 100% negative final verdict on this robot's performance declaring it as scam and unreliable income-increasing partner.
Final Words About AutoMoney Generator
The next lie stated by Mr. Raven is that the access to his software is absolutely free, because he wants to make something good for people. In fact, there is no such thing – every new member of the scam should place at least $250 initial investment amount in order to get started with this Forex trading system. Therefore, it seems like there is nothing for free in this world, especially when it comes to scam automated Forex trading platforms. People should avoid dealing with it, and find a really legit and reliable source for their income-generating goals.
After making a detailed investigation our team came to the conclusion that there are better Forex to trade with than Auto Money Generator. We cannot confirm whether Auto Money Generator is a scam robot or not, but upon investigating we found a lot of traders' comments and complaints about the performance of this Forex robot and we don't have confirmation that it can achieve the profits advertised via email.
We recommend you to Continue to Trusted Forex Robot and avoid scams by choosing a High-Rated and Trusted Robot on Top10BinaryRobots.com

Megaoesophagus in a dog
This is a rare condition in pets. The oesophagus is the tube between the mouth and the stomach. It carries food and water by alternately contracting and relaxing the muscles that line it. This is why you can swallow water even when you stand on your head without the water rushing out your nose ( a good party trick!)
Sometimes in pets, the muscles lining the oesophagus get diseased and stop functioning. When this happens, food, saliva and/or water tends to pool in a relaxed part of the oesophagus- usually in the middle of the chest. The food and/or water just sits there and is not "pushed" into the stomach. A short time later, the pet makes a gagging sound and out plops the meal, undigested and sometimes in a sausage shape. The oesophagus is very enlarged, hence the word "mega- oesophagus"
Lucy presented with such a history, and we needed to rule out other possibilities for her vomiting episodes. Blood tests were all normal and there was no history of her having eaten a foreign body. There had been no change in diet.
We took plain x-rays of her chest and abdomen before giving her 20mls of Barium by mouth. Barium is a chalky thick liquid which shows up very well on x-rays as a white material
We placed Lucy on a sloppy food diet. All her food is now blended with water and placed on the top of some steps. She has to eat the food with her body on a downward slope so it "slides" into the stomach once she swallows it.
So far, we have not had any complications. We are hoping that it may be due to a virus which she may recover from in the near future.

John P. Arends
Posted By: Tammy (email)
Date: 11/9/2011 at 17:34:26
JOHN P. ARENDS, a well known farmer of Grundy County, and the owner of a valuable farm on section 29, Beaver Township, was born in Germany July 13, 1842. He is the son of John P. Arends, a native of Germany, who was there employed as a day laborer and afterward as a fireman. He was in religious belief indentified with the German Reformed Church, in which faith he died at the age of seventy-four. The mother of our subject was born, reared and educated in Germany, and was also identified with the German Reformed Church. Her death occurred at the age of sixty-eight years. She had a family of four children: Aaron, Dirk J., John P. and Annie, deceased.
In the schools of his native land our subject received a practical education. In 1865, at the age of twenty-three years, he accompanied his parents to the United States, and with them settled on a rented farm in Stephenson County, Ill., where he remained for six years. From there he came to Beaver Township, Grundy County, and in 1870 purchased forty acres, comprising a portion of his present estate. He at once commenced the work of cultivating the place, and by untiring industry and good management acquired the ownership of three hundred and twenty acres of well improved and valuable land.
At the age of thirty-one years Mr. Arends was united in marriage with Meike Goldhorn, a native of Germany, and to them were born eight children, three of whom died in infancy. The mother was born and educated in Germany, and came to this country with her parents in 1866, when she was sixteen years of age. They located in Ogle County, Ill., and there rented a farm, but in 1871 disposed of their interests in that place and came to Beaver Township, Grundy County. In religion, Mrs. Arends was a member of the German Reformed Church, with which she was identified until her death, at the age of thirty-five.

Calling Out Roger Waters, Radiohead Front Man Thom Yorke Says Calls to Boycott Israel 'Offensive'
Radiohead's Thom Yorke breaks silence on calls to boycott Israel: 'Just to assume that we know nothing about this [and] throw the word 'apartheid' around... It's such an extraordinary waste of energy'
Radiohead has faced harsh criticism for its upcoming show in Tel Aviv, but on Thursday front man Thom Yorke finally opened up about the band's decision to ignore calls to boycott Israel.
The show, as part of the tour for the British group's latest album, "A Moon Shaped Pool," is set to finish up at Tel Aviv's Yarkon Park on July 19. In April, nearly 50 performers and artists, including Pink Floyd's Roger Waters and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, signed an open letter calling on Radiohead to cancel its concert in Israel as part of the wider boycott, divestment and sanctions movement that supports an intellectual, economic and cultural boycott of the country.
Though the band has played in Israel eight times, it hasn't played here in 17 years. Talking to Rolling Stone on Thursday, Yorke blasted boycott calls as "offensive" and described his feelings on the criticism from fellow artists.
"I'll be totally honest with you: this has been extremely upsetting," the singer-songwriter said. "There are an awful lot of people who don't agree with the BDS movement, including us," he said, citing Noam Chomsky and J.K. Rowling, two other prominent figures who oppose a blanket cultural ban.
Yorke said that he couldn't imagine telling other artists he admires where to work, what to do or what to think, and that he found the statements, both of flag-waving activists and artists supporting a boycott, patronizing and offensive.
"It's deeply disrespectful to assume that we're either being misinformed or that we're so retarded we can't make these decisions ourselves," Yorke said, pointing to Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood's experiences in the country; Greenwood's wife, Israeli born Sharona Katan, considers herself an Arab Jew.
"Just to assume that we know nothing about this. Just to throw the word 'apartheid' around and think that's enough. It's fucking weird. It's such an extraordinary waste of energy. Energy that could be used in a more positive way."
Though he named director Ken Loach, who supports the boycott, as someone he admires, he criticized former Pink Floyd singer, bassist and songwriter Roger Waters as a staunch supporter of the BDS movement, saying the letter pitted Yorke against their shared producer, Nigel Godrich.
"Imagine how this has affected me and Nigel's relationship. Thanks, Roger. I mean, we're best mates for life, but it's like, fuck me, really?"
>> Roger Waters sets the record straight, telling Haaretz: I hate apartheid, not Israel <<
Yorke, who also plans to present a lecture at an Israeli university while he's in Israel, said he found the opposition to the university talk even more bewildering.
"It's like, really? You can't go talk to other people who want to learn stuff in another country? Really? The one place where you need to be free to express everything you possibly can. You want to tell these people you can't do that? And you think that's gonna help?" he asked.
"You're not bringing people together," he said of the boycott movement, "You're not encouraging dialogue or a sense of understanding. Now if you're talking about trying to make things progress in any society, if you create division, what do you get? You get fucking Theresa May. You get Netanyahu, you get fucking Trump. That's divisive."

The Draw of Good Preaching
Luke 21:37 ¶ Every day he was teaching in the temple, and at night he would go out and spend the night on the Mount of Olives, as it was called.
Luke 21:38 And all the people would get up early in the morning to listen to him in the temple.
This was Jesus' final week in Jerusalem and in these couple of sentences we see his personal routine. He spent his days preaching and teaching in the temple. At night he would go back over to the Mount of Olives and rest and pray. Then, early the next morning he would make his way to the temple again, ready to teach the people. His morning lectures were a draw to those in the city who would get up early and come "to listen to him in the temple."
Evidently it was unusual for the people to get up early to hear someone preach in the temple. Jesus wasn't just a charismatic speaker, he was bringing them good, solid food which would be transformational in their lives. His preaching here in the temple is also referred to as lecturing. He was the teacher and the people were the students. They were coming to learn from the Master and his teaching was so compelling that they were willing to get up early in the morning and spend time just sitting at his feet so that they could soak in what he had to say.
How deep is our preaching/teaching these days? I'm afraid that too often peoples' ears are being tickled by what they hear. We want the best show in town on Sunday mornings and we want to enjoy "our" worship experience. At the same time I believe there is a sincere and deep hunger for the "meatier" things of God. Over and over again I run into lay persons who are tired of the "fluff" of Christianity and would like to be taken deeper into the word of God.
To be a really good preacher means that you have to spend time in study. You cannot re-preach other peoples' sermons that are pulled down off the internet! To really preach means that it has to come from a place in your own spiritual life where God is leading and directing and so there is great responsibility on the part of the preacher to spend the necessary time in preparation to be able to teach his/her people.
There is a draw to good preaching but there are also consequences. Preaching and teaching the truth will not always make people happy. While they got up early to hear Jesus preach this whole week — they eventually crucified him. If we are preachers, we must teach and preach the Truth. If we are lay persons learning, then may we learn and listen with the expectation that not everything we hear will be pleasing to our ears, but may God help us to go deeper with him as a result of what he is speaking to us.
Lord, please help our ministers to lead us deeper into your Truths through the honest preaching of your word! Amen.

Pan-European hosting provider Combell Group has expanded further by acquiring Antwerp-based hosting provider Nucleus.
Combell, which is headquartered Belgium, serves about 800,000 customers in Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden and Switzerland, where it made another acquisition last month.
Jonas Dhaenens, founder and CEO of Combell Group, said: "Thanks to this acquisition [for an undisclosed sum] Combell Group further strengthens its Belgian and European market leadership position in hosting."
Swiss hosting firm Switchplus was acquired by Combell in December and Danish firm Zitcom was captured in 2017.
Founded in 2000, Nucleus has around 35 staff and they will be transferring to Combell. The company will be re-branded as a Combell firm.
Switchplus was acquired from the SWITCH Foundation for an undisclosed sum and the deal saw Combell enter the Swiss hosting market for the first time. Again, as with Nucleus, Switchplus' staff in Zurich will be transferred to Combell, and the operation will be rebranded as a Combell firm.
Gent-based Combell offers website, application and infrastructure hosting, domain name registration, email hosting and Microsoft Office 365 services, among others.

Learning Activation Ep4. – Servant Leadership
You are going to ensure that you're fulfilling any mission of any organization. The leaders must be there to support the people and the people are doing the work.
Hi, welcome to another edition of leadership activation. Today I have my guest, which I'm so excited to be able to introduce to you, Pat Falotico go from, what'd he, Robert Greenleaf Institute for Servant Leadership. Hi Pat. And welcome to the program. Hi Terry. Thanks for including me and uh, looking forward to our conversation. Yeah. Um, kind of love just the stark and give people basic introduction to the Green Leaf Institute and a in terms of what it stands for. Sure. So the Rama K Greenleaf Center for Servant leadership was founded in 1964 as the center for applied ethics by Mr Greenleaf after he spent 38 years with at&t. Um, and a few years later he, um, yeah, hand in an essay called the servant as leader, which started this movement of servant leadership in our society, separate from the faith traditions that of course recognize that service is our duty to pay here on earth. Um, Greenleaf recognized that if you're going to be a great leader, first must be experienced as a servant.
And from there, the center has been really fueling the growth of the Movement for over 50 years. Yeah. It made remarkable kind of progress and it's got a footprint that is quite global at this point. So that's pretty impressive. Tell us a little bit about your personal journey though, in terms of how you got there. Uh, so I spent 31 years with IBM before I retired for the first time. Trial retirement didn't fit me very well. Um, but I must say that when I think about my leadership development journey, I learned at probably one of the best places in the world, uh, to figure out a leadership style that fit me and fit me well. Uh, IBM had wonderful programs for leadership development, but it was really through the people that you had, um, exposure to, you learned the best things that could work and the things that wouldn't work quite well.
So I began to form my leadership philosophy from a pretty young age when I was entrusted to lead. For the first time and perhaps I wasn't leading very well at the beginning. Um, perhaps in the late eighties, I was managing and not doing a great job of that. But I learned over time that the best way to help people succeed was to really invest in them in their best possible way. When I retired from IBM, I was trying to figure out what it was going to do and the Robert K Greenleaf center was looking for a new leader. Um, so they might say a match was made. And since then I've been on a really intentional journey around servant leadership for the past four years. But I don't know, you do a lot of speaking, a lot of travel, um, a lot of workshops and, and out evangelizing and basically really trying to, to spread the word but also, um, provide people with some really good handles on exactly what that means and how to show up as a servant leader at work.
So, um, and most recently you took the time and I just, I just applaud you for this. You took the time to actually develop a curriculum that you have put on to the juvie platform. Uh, take a minute and just share with us a little bit about what people would find inside of that program will be. A couple of good takeaways I found is by when we first started the journey, Terry, when you and I talked about putting the Greenleaf servant leadership model onto jerk, uh, onto GV, I thought it would be a great way to give people access to what I do in the classroom. What I found by working with the amazing Gloria Sutherland was that I could go so much deeper on the GB platform than I ever could in eight hours in a classroom. Because what we're able to do with each part of the Greenleaf servant leadership model is to dig really deep and not just teach something.
We have the opportunity to engage people in practice, and then allow them to reflect so that those learnings become a part of them. Self awareness, listening, whatever it is that you need to develop at a more deeper level. We can do that on Jubi, some so excited about what the technology allows us to do. And it also allows me to speak with a consistent voice to a much broader audience. I can't be having workshops all over. Where I want this message to teach, but the platform allows me to actually do that, to touch people that I otherwise wouldn't have an opportunity to do that with.
I can honestly say it is a quality well done program. So, uh, I'm confident you're going to get a lot of traction out of that. So, so Pat, lets talk some more about the principles that, I mean some of the things that you teach or somewhat intuitive, it sounds right, but I know there are some things that you have found that are so counterintuitive to the culture, especially the corporate culture.
What would be a couple of those kinds of counterintuitive principles that you've, that you've come across? Well, um, the counter intuitive starts with the very essence of servant leadership. That point that says to be experienced as a great leader, you must first be a servant. The Concept of Servant inverts the power structure. In most organizations, however, those who have embraced the concept know somewhat intuitively, but don't practice it, that if you are going to ensure that you're fulfilling any mission of any organization, the leaders must be there to support the people and the people are doing the work. I learned that as a very young manager at IBM, however, our weekly, monthly, quarterly, annually met annually measured metrics often reverse that and say, okay, I as the leader I'm going to be much more directive so that I can get the outcomes. Helping people see that you can get better outcomes by focusing your energy on the people versus the metric is somewhat counter cultural in our society.
And that's the essence of what we're trying to change. And, and you're right, we teach a lot of things about um, things that we've heard before. Self awareness is probably my favorite one. Everyone says, yes, I know everything there is to know about myself. The issue is that's insufficient. Yeah, you got to know about yourself, but you have to know about the others around you and you have to know about what your impact is on the others around you so that when your being your full, vibrant, powerful self, if that shutting other people down, you got to do something about it. That's what we teach. So some people might say, that sounds great for you and that sounds really good maybe for some organizations, but culturally that would never fit here. Is there still even at that an opportunity or responsibility for say one offs to be able to have any kind of impact with these principles?
Yeah, I mean, organizationally, if you think about a company like IBM with hundreds of thousands of people having one consistent leadership style is not going to work because you've got thousands and thousands of leaders within the organization. You have the opportunity to do something within your own teams and creating these micro-cultures. I've heard, uh, Cheryl batch Helder speak of it in, in a approach to servant leadership that if this really grabs you as an individual, and you run a division of a, of an organization or even a small department, applying these principles with your team still will have the opportunity to get great results. And Oh, by the way, the others who are your peers might be just be looking at you and saying what's happening differently there? Maybe I need to learn from that. So our hope is that we can change the cultures of some of these organizations from inside by convincing what I love to call the ROI crowd, that this is the right investment to make in leadership development.
Fantastic. Hey Pat, it's been so good to have you on the program today. If people want to know more about, um, the, the greenleaf Institute, and about your work were, where would they go? How, how did they contact you? Is www.greenleaf.org you can learn about all of our programs and especially the Greenleaf servant leadership journey online especially. Hey, thanks so much, pat.

I wonder why he took a photo of this? He is not a fan of Madonna. We have different tastes in music. He sometimes explains that his musical tastes stopped developing at the time of Woodstock. That is an exaggeration, but unfortunately only a slight exaggeration.
Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site. This week we are showing photos of the monumental and beautiful Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, Morocco.

Let us knowReferencesClick here to see a full source listIce, or crystal methamphetamine, is a synthetic stimulant drug and variant of methamphetamine. Methamphetamine typically comes in three different forms (ice, base and speed) that vary in their appearance and potency. Crystal methamphetamine is one of the most potent varieties of the drug and is usually colourless and odourless. The name 'ice' became popular due to the drug's form of white little 'crystals' and glass-like appearance. Ice Appearance Translucent crystals, sometimes shards. Also known as Crystal meth, meth, shabu, tina, glass. method Smoking (e.g. with a glass pipe), injecting. Potencyhigh Base Appearance Dampish, 'gluggy' substance. Colour varies from white to brown. Also known as Pure, point, wax, meth. method Swallowing, injecting. Potencymediumhigh speed Appearance White or off-white powder. Also known as Goey, meth. method Snorting, swallowing, injecting. Potencylowmedium The effects of ice differ slightly from speed and base because it is often a purer form of methamphetamine, meaning it gives a stronger and longer lasting 'high'. Because of this, it also has more potent and serious side effects, both during use and in the 'comedown' or 'crash' phase after use. This is why, compared to other forms of methamphetamine, ice has a greater potential for the person using the drug to develop dependence, psychosis, and other long-term physical and mental health problems. For more information about the effects of ice on the brain and body, visit "how does ice work" and "mental health effects". The use of ice can affect people differently and may be more problematic for some people than others. The impact of ice also depends on how much is taken, the purity of the drug, how the drug is taken (e.g. injection, smoking) and the persons physical and mental health. Repeated use of ice builds up tolerance requiring higher and more frequent doses to achieve the same effects. Ice is usually sold in points (0.1g) or grams and can be cut (mixed) with other substances. This reduces its purity and makes its effects even more unpredictable. People may also take other substances at the same time as ice, for example, drinking alcohol or smoking cannabis. The more substances a person takes (or is affected by) at a time, the more chance there is of something going wrong. For more information, visit "using ice with other drugs". In the past decade or so, Australia has seen an increase in the use of ice as the main form of methamphetamine.

Black Panther, like many great works of fiction, succeeds in offering a platform to openly explore & discuss matters too sensitive, too difficult for the real world.
Though it's action scenes are average at best (it's a superhero film so it has to be mentioned), the underlying messages implied more than outweighs it. All credit to the team and Ryan Coogler for not just showing the beautiful side of a culture that's overlooked most times, but also the low points of its history and ow they've grown from it.
Another thing Black Panther does well, creating a fictional world with consistent rules that the story follows and builds on. This has been something even films like Star Wars the Last Jedi have failed.
Not the best Marvel film in a superhero sense, but the strongest, most meaningful, it's ever produced.

When most Americans think of a tea, they think of finger foods and dainty cups. This ican be traced to the British tradition of afternoon tea, also known as low tea. The designation of "low" refers not to the class of the people involved but rather to the fact that the food was served around low tables, such as coffee tables. Low tea is an intimate social affair with light food. High tea tended to involve working class people, who, being unable to attend teas in the middle of the workday, would have a heartier meal when arriving home from work. Although traditionally a family affair, today's high tea is more like a dinner party.
Plan a menu. High tea is also called "meat tea" because of its focus on hearty meat dishes. The menu should include dishes such as roast beef, ham, or shepherd's pie. Consider having at least two meat options, a fish option, a vegetable or two and a couple of simple dessert options. This is the equivalent of a dinner. Also include beverages, especially tea. Traditional British teas are mainly black teas, such as Earl Grey and English Breakfast, with either milk or lemon and sugar. Modern teas can take advantage of the huge variety of options available, however, so don't feel confined by tradition. You can include some herbal and caffeine free teas as well.
Create and send the invitations to your high tea at least two weeks in advance. Along with the standard details, such as date, time and location, include a sample of the menu. Since most Americans confuse high tea and afternoon tea, this can let your guests know to expect a full dinner rather than just finger foods to avoid the possibility of them eating prior to attending. It also gives your guest the opportunity to let you know of any food allergies or special dietary needs they might have.
Create a shopping list based on your menu. If you have space in your refrigerator, it is best to shop a few days before your tea. Check your supply of plates, cups and utensils as well, and pick up anything else you might need at the same time.
Determine what can be prepared ahead of time and reheated or served cold the evening of the tea. Then start cooking ahead of time. This will allow you to focus on your guests rather than being in the kitchen when they arrive.
Set out the cups, teas, sugar and lemon, as well as any appetizers, the hour before your guests arrive. When your guests arrive, you should pour them their first cups of tea. Keep a kettle simmering with hot water for refills throughout the evening.
Serve dinner and enjoy your company. Unlike traditional high teas, the focus of your tea is to enjoy the company of your guests.

We soon found the Lions Park
located on the banks.
Our next destination was a free camp near Bundarra. We took the Bundarra Road out of Armidale which connects with Thunderbolts Way. We soon found the Lions Park which is located on the banks of the Gwydir River. This is a great free camp and one of the best we have come across.
Copeton Dam has a caravan park called Copeton Waters, but they wanted to charge a fee just to drive into the park to have a look, so we didn't bother. Instead we drove up to the dam wall and admired the views across the dam and the engineering in the enormous spillway.

It was a Saturday afternoon and I was on my way to a movie when I got the confirmation mail from XUB, that I had converted HR. There was a sense of excitement that took over on all my emotions. To pursue MBA from XAHR was something I had always dreamt of.
A few days later, I was in our car, my parents driving me to the Xavier City, Bhubaneswar which was a 40 minutes ride from my home. Following the map, we reached this place, far away from the hustle of the city, surrounded with tree plantation all throughout, a huge entrance welcoming us to the magnificent campus of Xavier's University. I gazed out of the window admiring the stunning architecture of the University along with the greenery around it complementing this magnificent institution in every way possible. The feeling was incredible, to realize that I am living my dream.
After completing certain formalities and a busy day of admission processes, exhausted, I returned to my hostel room. Days passed by, but it felt as if it was yesterday when we had joined this institution. Every single person I met with, be it my batchmates or my seniors, every day and everyone has been so welcoming. Yes, there were loads of assignments, batch-meets, classes but there wasn't a day when we missed out on having fun, be it the cultural events, sports tournament or ice breaking session between seniors and juniors, every single day was amazing, and it continues to be so.
Our institution is overloaded with such enthusiastic and lively people who not only are setting a benchmark in academics but also engage themselves and encourage everyone else to participate in all kinds of extracurricular activity. For me, the uniqueness of my campus is its people, the students, the faculty and everyone who is part of this huge family. The culture of this University is reflected in everyone present here and those who have passed out of this University. Driven by the Jesuit philosophy and amazing people determined to be the best among all, XAHR will always be one of its kind.
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why?
Aditya Birla Group, a huge Indian multinational firm, having its business in every field be ranging from Cement to Fashion, to be a part of it is a dream. I would love to work for the Retail sector which is Aditya Birla Retail Limited. Having work experience in retail comes to my advantage and also the range of businesses within this sector including FMCG products, pharmacy, general merchandise and other daily use products is something one can relate. Retail has been a part of our life since ages and would continue to be so and would stay in demand and hence simple to connect to.

I have a mildly irritating problem which I'm hoping someone can help me understand.
I have some dynamic asset tags based on IP. When viewing the tag in AssetView it returns that there are 43 assets associated with that tag. However, when I right click the tag and select Find assets it only returns 40! This isn't a massive problem just something that doesn't make sense.
Thanks in advance.

text: BAOMS Home Professionals Education & Training Specialty Training in OMFS Specialty Training in OMFS The eLogbook is the official logbook for OMFS specialty trainees. This user guide provides advice for specialty trainees. The information would also be useful for anyone working in OMFS departments. Please also see: Look After Yourself - Awareness of Sleep Deprivation and Night Working The new look newsletter from the OMFS SAC The purpose of this newsletter is to update trainees and trainers about the latest training related developments in our specialty. From the new OMFS curriculum to changes in indicative numbers for trainees, many training related matters have been discussed in the last three SAC meetings. The 'purpose' statement for the new OMFS curriculum has been presented to the GMC and we will hear shortly whether the GMC are happy with its intent and remit along with other surgical specialties. OMFS SAC newsletter Issue 1: Feb 2019 19 February 2019: In this inaugural issue of the new-look OMFS SAC newsletter, the new OMFS curriculum is described. In the new curriculum, there will be less focus on the number of work based assessments (WBAs) but WBAs will still remain to help facilitate learning and assessment, particularly around critical topics and procedures. The proposed new surgical curricula describes a series of high level Learning outcomes called Capabilities in Practice (CiPs) which describe the tasks trainees should be able to do independently by the end of training. Supervisor reports and multi-consultant reports (MCRs) will become the main means of assessing overall progress of a trainee. The new curriculum will likely not come into being before August 2020. If you are a trainee or a trainer, read this newsletter about the new curriculum. It also has important links to three new sets of documents guiding curriculum change. OMFS SAC newsletter Issue 2: Apr 2019 20 April 2019: What is happening with the new OMFS curriculum? Do trainees need to validate their elogbooks? How can OMFS trainees enhance their chances of getting a TIG fellowship? Is there a national induction course for newly appointed OMFS registrars? What is the process of getting an early certification (CCT) in OMFS? If you are looking to find answers to these questions, have a quick read of the spring issue of this revamped OMFS SAC newsletter. Besides SAC updates, the newsletter provides several important links for trainees and trainers including links to the current indicative numbers, OMFS syllabus and the 'top tips' for elogbook entries.
