Located on the banks of the Brahmaputra River in Assam, the Sukreswar Temple is a holy place for the Hindus. Many devotees from all round the world visit this religious place in Guwahati, Assam throughout the year. The temple is set up on the top of a hill called the Hasti whose named has been mentioned in the Kalika Purana. One of the largest Lingas of Lord Shiva is housed and worshipped in this temple. Even after so many years the temple still holds its beauty and has been restored in a very good manner. Adjacent to it is the Nat Mandir whose roof is made of iron sheets. The temple is very peaceful and divine and the view of the Brahmaputra River just behind it is very beautiful to see. There are many ferries that ply from the Sukreswar ghat to the opposite bank. Thus the tourists can enjoy the ferry ride after exploring the temple. The place also offers a lovely view of the sunset from the hill top.

YDL and the Ann Arbor (MI) Links, Inc. Join Forces to Keep African-American Children Reading
Thursday, June 13, 2013
The Ypsilanti District Library (YDL) and the Ann Arbor (MI) Chapter of The Links, Inc. are pleased to announce a collaborative effort to keep African-American children and teens involved in reading over the summer. Research shows that students who do not practice their reading skills over the summer return to school with diminished reading skills. This is a motivating factor for libraries devoting their attention and resources to summer reading activities. If students read over the summer, they will go back to school with their reading abilities intact and ready to tackle new subjects. Maintaining and enhancing reading skills over the summer is important to overall student academic success.
This year's cooperative project between YDL and the Ann Arbor (MI) Chapter of The Links, Inc. involves the creation of five reading lists for various age groups: preschool, K-3rd grade, 4-5th grade, middle school, and high school. The reading lists will feature African-American authors and illustrators and will be available at the library over the summer as well as on our website. Everyone is welcome to share the information.
The hope is that these reading lists will provide a rich source of high-quality literature that is both developmentally appropriate and reflective of African-American experiences in order to spark a love of reading for these children and teens. Children who complete the reading list for their age group will be given a certificate of completion at the end of the summer.
In addition, the Ann Arbor (MI) Chapter of The Links, Inc. will donate a collection of books to the recreation center (either Ypsilanti City's Parkridge or Ypsilanti Township's Recreation/Community Center) that has the most youth complete one of the reading lists. Members of YDL's youth department and the Ann Arbor (MI) Chapter of The Links, Inc. will be working this summer to reach out to the young people attending the recreation centers to get them excited about competing to win a collection of books for their location as well as participate in the Library's summer reading activities.
YDL's Summer Library Program this year for children 12 and under is called Read. Learn. Do! and teens (13-18) will Dream It! Make It! There is an overriding theme of DIY @ YDL. Reading is certainly something you CAN do yourself to improve your life! Everyone (adults included) is invited to come into YDL and register for the summer library program, read anything and everything, and attend some of the spectacular hands-on DIY programs YDL locations are offering this summer! Call (734) 482-4110 ext. 1340 for more information.

Cardinals-Buccaneers Preview
Arizona Cardinals at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- The Cardinals have scored at least 38 points in each of their last two games against the Buccaneers (in 2016 and 2017) -- the Cardinals have scored at least 38 points in just two other games against the rest of the NFL since 2016. Eight of the last nine in this series have been one-possession games.
- The Buccaneers have lost five straight at home, last winning a home game in Week 13 of last season. Only the Redskins (eight) have a longer active home losing streak. The Buccaneers are the only team in the NFL to allow at least 30 points in every home game this season.
- The Cardinals are the first team to go five games without a turnover since the 2017 Chiefs (six straight). Their four turnovers this season are fewest in the NFL, and since 1950, the 2019 Cardinals and 2017 Chiefs are the only teams with four or fewer turnovers through nine team games.
- Kenyan Drake's 162 yards from scrimmage last week were the second most in any game of his career. The last players with at least 160 scrimmage yards in their first game with a new team were C.J. Anderson and Adrian Peterson, who did so with the Rams and Redskins last season, respectively.
- Mike Evans is the first player to have 180+ receiving yards in consecutive games since Julio Jones in 2014. He's already had three games of 180+ receiving yards this season. The last players to have as many such games in a season were Antonio Brown (four in 2015) and Isaac Bruce (three in 1995).
- Kyler Murray completed 70.8 percent of his passes (17/24) and averaged 10.04 yards per attempt against the 49ers last week -- prior to that game, the 49ers' defense allowed 5.50 yards per attempt and a 54.5 completion percentage. The last Cardinals quarterbacks with a 70.0+ completion percentage and 10.0+ yards per attempt in any game were Carson Palmer in 2017 and Kurt Warner in 2008 (min. 20 attempts).

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers off to a slow start midway through their first season under Bruce Arians, the former Arizona Cardinals coach is not eager to reminisce about the time he spent leading his old team.
Stopping a four-game losing streak will be Arians' top priority when the Bucs (2-6) and Cardinals (3-5-1) play Sunday - not saying hello and exchanging pleasantries with familiar faces on the opposing sideline.
"There's only about eight or nine guys left on that team from when I had them two years ago - pretty good overhaul," Arians said. "Those guys - it's always different (and) difficult. I don't like going against friends, but we're not friends when it's kicked off."
Including a playoff victory that landed Arizona in the 2015 NFC championship game, Arians won 50 games over five seasons with the Cardinals. He retired and took a job in television after going 8-8 in 2017, only to be lured back into coaching when Tampa Bay called last winter seeking a quick fix for quarterback Jameis Winston and an end to the NFL's second-longest postseason drought.
The Bucs haven't made the playoffs since 2007 and are in danger of extending their stretch of futility to 12 consecutive seasons.
Turnovers have been a problem, but so has a defense that's failed to protect fourth-quarter leads in three of the team's six losses.
"You are what you are," Arians said of his team's record. "It's disappointing to be where we're at because we've had leads, we've come from behind, we've missed a kick, we don't get a call - that's all very disappointing because we should be in the hunt. There's a lot of football left to get into the hunt. You've got to win one to get a string of them going, and we need to win one."
The Cardinals, led by first-year coach Kliff Kingsbury and rebuilding around No. 1 overall draft pick Kyler Murray, barely resemble the team Arians left behind in Arizona.
The Bucs coach is impressed by Murray's performance over the first nine games. The rookie has thrown 172 consecutive passes without an interception, the longest current streak in the NFL, and the Cardinals have turned the ball over just four times all season.
"He's a real fast Russell Wilson, extremely dangerous when he breaks out of there and gets the ball out of his hand real quick - very accurate and they're doing some really good things with him," said Arians, whose team was torched by the Seahawks quarterback for 378 yards passing and five touchdowns during a 40-34 overtime loss at Seattle last week.
"Obviously, there's a lot of luck involved in this game, but he's doing a nice job of not putting the ball in harm's way," Kingsbury said of Murray. "We're not a team that's going to be able to come out and make a lot of mistakes."
In addition to Arians, Tampa Bay's coaching staff is loaded with assistants who worked for the Cardinals for portions or all of his five-season stint (2013-17), including offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich and defensive coordinator Todd Bowles. Assistant head coach/run game coordinator Harold Goodwin has reunited with Arians, too, as have 10 others in various roles for the Bucs. The roster, meanwhile, includes three former Cardinals - OL Earl Watford, ILB Kevin Minter and RB T.J. Logan.
The Cardinals hope to have running back David Johnson back for Sunday's game after he missed the past two games because of an ankle injury. Johnson has 300 yards rushing and 315 yards receiving this season. He'll likely split time with Kenyan Drake, who ran for 110 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 52 yards on Oct. 31 in a 28-25 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It was Drake's first game after being acquired in a trade from the Miami Dolphins three days earlier. The team's other main RB, Chase Edmonds (hamstring), is expected to miss his second straight game.
Arizona's defense is giving up more than 407 yards per game, which ranks 30th. The Cardinals have had a particularly tough time defending the pass, giving up nearly 281 yards per game.
In last Thursday's loss to San Francisco, 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo threw for 317 yards and four touchdowns. Arizona's defense hoped to get a boost when star cornerback Patrick Peterson returned from a six-game suspension a few weeks ago, but the ninth-year veteran's performance has been up and down, and he'll have a tough task against the Bucs' receiver duo of Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. "I expect him to have a great game this week," Kingsbury said. "He's one of the best to ever play that position, and he's not short on confidence. He'll be ready to rock this week."
The Bucs, who lead the NFL in run defense, are one of the three teams yielding more yards per game (293.5) passing than Arizona. Injuries forced Bowles to use five rookies on defense last week at Seattle, including S Mike Edwards and CBs Sean Murphy-Bunting and Jamel Dean. Two starters - CB Carlton Davis III and S Jordan Whitehead - are second-year pros, while the most experienced player in the secondary is fourth-year cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III, who missed the final 15 games of last season with an injury. The Bucs are fourth in the league in scoring at just under 29 per game. Conversely, the defense is yielding 31.5 a game, which ranks 31st.
"It's basically on the back end, where we thought we'd be very strong," Arians said. "We've made errors mentally in technique and judgment and everything else, so (we've been) very disappointing in that way. I'm not used to giving up leads in the fourth quarter, and we've done it a few times now."

5 Tips for Parents Forming Stepfamilies After Divorce
If you have formed a new stepfamily, you are not alone! Stepfamilies are increasingly common in the United States, and form when one or both partners in a new committed relationship bring a child or children from a previous relationship.1 Nearly one-third of children are estimated to live in a stepfamily household at some point before reaching adulthood.2,3
Unfortunately, a great deal of uncertainty still surrounds the transition to stepfamily life. This is explained, in part, by the complex family histories, values, needs, and expectations that stepfamily members bring with them to new stepfamily relationships. Stepfamily challenges have important implications for family stability and individual well-being, and there is much parents can do to promote positive outcomes for themselves, their partners, and their children. Below I provide five tips for parents who have formed (or who intend to form) stepfamily relationships. This list is not exhaustive, but these five tips are a good start.
1) Be Flexible
Approach the transition to stepfamily life with a healthy amount of flexibility, and be mindful of unrealistic expectations. Feel empowered to build relationships that will work best for you and your family, but realize that stepfamily members might want different things. Cultivate empathy, good communication, and a supportive environment as you navigate difficult conversations, make compromises, and explore what each stepfamily member needs. Do not assume that your stepfamily should look or feel like a first-time family. Stepfamilies are simply different, with a unique set of demands and opportunities. And, what works well for one stepfamily might not work well for another.
2) Let Your Kids Know You Are Still There
It is common for parents in stepfamilies to focus much of their time and energy on the new couple relationship. Certainly, the new couple relationship is a vital component of any stepfamily. However, the importance of maintaining strong parent-child relationships in stepfamilies cannot be overstated.4 The transition to stepfamily life is a time when parent-child relationships can weaken.5 Remember, your children likely did not choose the various changes that are occurring around them. As a result, stepfamily formation can be a stressful time for children.6 It is important for children to know that you are still available and responsive to their needs. Maintaining close parent-child relationships in stepfamilies can reduce children's stress and promote children's psychological and behavioral well-being.7,8,9,10 In addition, when children feel they can depend on their parent in times of need, they are more likely to develop a close relationship with a new stepparent.11
3) Exercise Patience
Stepfamily relationships take time to develop. Even under the best circumstances, mutually satisfying and stable stepfamily relationships can take four or more years to cultivate.5 The process of developing relationships will look different for every stepfamily, so be sure not to rush things. Remember that running into challenges or setbacks does not indicate failure—it simply reflects the reality that stepfamilies, just like all families, face hurdles. The trick is to not place undue pressure on yourself or others. Sometimes just knowing what typical stepfamilies experience can foster patience and ease tensions.
4) Build and Maintain a Cooperative Parenting Team
In most cases, parents in stepfamilies share parenting responsibilities with nonresident parents. As a result, children in stepfamilies become embedded within a rich network of parental figures, often including resident parents, stepparents, and nonresident parents. Children fare best when all of their parental figures avoid overt conflict and engage with each other in a cordial and cooperative way.12,8
Adults in stepfamilies often face uncertainty about the role new stepparents should play. This uncertainty can be heightened when nonresident parents maintain active and frequent involvement in the lives of children. Research points to a wide variety of stepparent-child relationships, ranging from kin-like and close, to cordial but distant.5 The key is identifying what role works best for your family. Much of this will depend on the age, temperament, and needs of children.
In any case, when parents and stepparents argue infrequently and agree on parenting strategies, children fare better psychologically and demonstrate a greater willingness to pursue a relationship with a new stepparent.7,8,11 Moreover, research generally indicates that stepparents should not take on a disciplinary role with their stepchildren, especially soon after the stepfamily has formed or when children are well into their adolescence.5
5) Continue Educating Yourself and Seek Help When Needed
Beware of stepfamily myths and false stereotypes. Seek out reputable and credible resources that can sensitize you to common dynamics associated with stepfamily life. One excellent resource is Dr. Patricia Papernow's book, entitled Surviving and Thriving in Stepfamily Relationships: What Works and What Doesn't. Dr. Papernow does a masterful job synthesizing and presenting information in a clear and accessible way. For those interested in a more academic resource, consider reviewing Stepfamily Relationships: Development, Dynamics, and Interventions by Dr. Lawrence Ganong and Dr. Marilyn Coleman. Drs. Ganong and Coleman skillfully overview much of what we know about stepfamilies based on past and current research.
In addition to ongoing self-education, sometimes families benefit from professional assistance. When needed, seek out help in the form of family life education or therapy. Professionally trained educators or practitioners will help you assess key challenges and map out a course to achieving the goals you and other stepfamily members have. When seeking out helping professionals, be sure they are properly trained to work with stepfamilies. Many clinicians attempt to help stepfamilies by applying knowledge related to first-time families. This approach can be unhelpful and counterproductive when working with stepfamilies.13

Title: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Published: 1968 Pages: 216
Genre: Science Fiction
Buy | Borrow | Accept | Avoid
Plot Synopsis
Rick Deckard is a bounty hunter, responsible for tracking down and killing any android that has managed to escape and return to Earth. His current assignment involves eight androids who emigrated from Mars. He knows his job, but androids have become almost too human.
My Thoughts
This was one strange book. For the first 50 pages or so I had a very difficult time getting in to the story. I was quite unsure of what was going on, feeling as if I had been unceremoniously dropped down in the middle of a strange world where I barely spoke the language. Then for the next 50 pages, I found myself focusing on the similarities and differences between what I was reading and what I saw in the film Bladerunner. I wish I would have read the book before watching the movie, but alas, no luck. Because of this, I've decided to organize my thoughts around comparing the two versions of this story.
Book to Movie
The film Bladerunner is based upon this novel, and while the similarities are there, the two stories are markedly different. In both, Rick Deckard is an android bounty hunter, Rachel Rosen is an unusually human non-human, and Earth is a post-apocalyptic mess. That is where the stories massively diverge. One of, if not the, main theme in the novel is absent from the film version: the empathic ability of humans as evidenced by their feelings for animals and their desire to identify with other humans.
In the novel, human beings are obsessed with animals, owning and caring for them in an extremely maternal fashion; their self-worth is in part based on the size of their animal and is very much tied in to whether they can own a real animal or an electric one. Also, humans are involved in a pseudo-religious activity where they plug in to a virtual reality where they emotionally connect to the other humans who are simultaneously plugged in. These two characteristics of the human population are integrally tied to Deckard's journey of self-discovery in the novel, but both are absent - and in effect Deckard's evolution - from the film.
I won't say, however, that I think the film needed these things. The film is fundamentally different from the book in that its purpose was action and entertainment, not philosophical questioning. I enjoyed both the book and the movie, but for very different reasons.

I love your review of this book, especially the comparison between the novel and Blade Runner. You have me intrigued.ReplyDelete
Laughing Stars - I'm glad I could intrigue you; that's such a wonderful word, isn't it?ReplyDelete
These two really are very different aren't they. I recently watched one of those dvd extras on Bladerunner, apparently Philip Dick thought the movie was great. He said it was exactly his vision of what the future would look like.ReplyDelete

PPB The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment
2 in stock
Jeremiah Burroughs is worthily reckoned as belonging to the front rank of English puritan preachers. As such, he played a prominent part in the Westminster Assembly of divines, but died prematurely before the Assembly's work was concluded.
We live our lives in a discontented world and it is all too easy for the Christian to share its spirit. This book remedies this spiritual disease in practical biblical ways. In it, Burroughs aims to promote peace and contentment in the hearts of individual believers: "There is an ark that you may come into, and no men in the world may live such comfortable, cheerful and contented lives as the saints of God."?
This book is marked by sanity, clarity, aptness of illustration and warmth of appeal to the heart. Burroughs presses his lesson home with all the fervour and cogency of a true and faithful minister of God.

nikon 24mm f2.0 ais review
I have a love for
taking landscape pictures; after I got used to the 50mm and was frustrated by the limited field of view offered by
this lens, I decided to get a wide angle lens.
Wide angle
lenses generally increase in price as you go wider. The 24mm
was the break point as far as what I could afford and it turned out to be the perfect choice to learn with.
After working with
the 50mm for so long, it was a bit of an adjustment to make
good pictures at 24mm. I soon learned that the most important
aspect of using a wide angle lens is the need to have an interesting
subject near the foreground. This is not an absolute rule,
but it generally helps your pictures turn out stronger.
The Nikon 24mm
f2.0 AIS is a great lens. The lens is also available in
a slightly slower f2.8 version.
I decided that the extra stop may be useful and decided
to spring for the larger aperture. Galen
Rowell apparently would have disagreed with this decision.
He chose to use the f2.8 version as it was lighter and
supposedly less prone to flare. A good argument. Also,
if you are using a tripod (as you should), you can compensate for the added shutter length resulting from the 1-stop light loss.
The lens was
great to learn with. I am glad that I decided not to go wider
than 24mm. I have a challenging time with composition with wide angles and I think my initial results would have been
even worse with a wider lens. The biggest reason I would
want to go wider is for interior and architectural pictures.

The Český kras (Bohemian Karst) Protected Landscape Area (PLA) was declared by the Czechoslovak Ministry of Culture on 12th April, 1972. The total area of the PLA is 12,823 ha and it lies to the south-west of Prague in the Středočesky kraj – Central Bohemian Region, with a part of the PLA lying on the territory of the City of Prague. The lowest elevation in the area is on the Berounka river near Hlásná Třebáň at 199 m above sea level and the highest point is the peak of Bacín to the north-west of the municipality of Vinařice at 499 m. Twelve municipalities lie completely within the PLA and parts of another 29 municipalities lie within the PLA territory. These areas are administered by 37 municipalities and 2 city districts.
The mission of a Protected Landscape Area is to protect all values of its landscape, its appearance and typical characteristics and natural resources and the formation of a balanced environment. Český kras is an exceptional territory for its geology and stratigraphy of Silurian and Devonian periods and research on the evolution of life on Earth in these periods. It is also the largest limestone region in Bohemia with preserved extensive areas of rocky steppe, forest steppe and deciduous forest communities with a very rich natural flora and fauna. The variety of nature in the area is strongly influenced by the river and karst phenomena. Many plant and invertebrate species which inhabit Český kras are found nowhere else in Bohemia.
To protect the exceptional natural values found here 19 small–scale specially protected areas have also been established: 2 national nature reserves (NNR) (Karlštejn and Koda), 4 national nature monuments (NNM) (Černá rokle, Klonk, Kotýz and Zlatý kůň), 8 nature reserves (NR) (Karlické údolí, Klapice, Kobyla, Kulivá hora, Radotínské údolí, Staňkovka, Tetínské skály, Voškov) and 5 nature monuments (NM) (Hvížďalka, Krásná stráň, Špičatý vrch-Barrandovy jámy, Lom u Kozolup and Zmrzlík). Within the Natura 2000 system, we can find 8 proposed Sites of Community Importance within the PLA (Karlické údolí, Karlštejn, Koda, Kotýz, Kulivá hora, Radotínské údolí, Suchomasty-zámeček, Štoly Velké Ameriky and Zlatý kůň). Since the year 2000 Karlštejn NNR has been a holder of the European Diploma for Protected Areas.

To tackle Delhi smog crisis, Centre prepones launch of Bharat Stage VI fuel norms
New Delhi, Nov 16: As Delhi is grappling with smog crisis since last week, the ministry of petroleum and natural gas (MoPNG) on Wednesday announced the two-year advancement of the introduction of Bharat Stage VI fuel norms from April 1, 2018, in the national capital.
The decision by the ministry has been lauded by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), a public interest research and advocacy organisation that promotes environmentally sound and equitable development strategies.
The CSE in a press release praised the ministry for proactively responding to the deadly smog crisis in Delhi. The introduction of BSVI fuel norms in the national capital will bring down sulphur content in the air by five times from the current BSIV levels-- this is a whopping 80 percent reduction.
"This will improve emissions from the existing fleet, even from the older vehicles on roads, while allowing more advanced emissions control systems to be fitted in BSVI vehicles when they begin to roll," stated the CSE press release.
However, the full advantage of this move will be possible only when vehicle technology moves to BSVI.
"The CSE believes that industry must also step up its act and show leadership to fast forward the change. The public health crisis caused by foul and toxic air needs such proactive leadership and drastic measures that will bring long-term gain. We cannot any more work with small and incremental steps to bring us the kind of air quality benefits that we need" said Sunita Narain, director general, the CSE.
The BSVI fuel norms will be implemented in the rest of country from April 2020. However, the CSE criticised the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEFCC) for its lackadaisical attitude towards high air pollution levels in Delhi.
"Ironically, this leadership has come from the MoPNG and not from the MoEFCC that remains the nodal ministry for environmental regulations," stated the press release.
In fact, the CSE points out that the MoEFCC has given repeated affidavit to the Supreme Court contesting the provision of the Comprehensive Action Plan on clean air submitted by the Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority (EPCA) that has asked industry to both manufacture and sell BSVI models from April 1, 2020.
The MoEFCC has mentioned in its affidavit that "the technical challenges of leapfrogging directly from BSIV to BSVI are far more complex and challenging. If the date shifts to become the date of registration then it would actually reduce the time available to industry for manufacturing to a mere two years or so although BSVI fuel will not be available across the country till April 1, 2020".
"Even though the full air quality gains will come when vehicles also move to BSVI emissions standards, the current move should not be underestimated in a choking city like Delhi.
"With substantially cleaner fuel emissions, control system in on-road fleet will improve and give some emissions benefits" said Anumita Roychowdhury, executive director, the CSE, and head of the organisation's air pollution campaign.
"But what is clear is that Delhi and the rest of India's choking cities will win this battle against the smog with decisive leadership, which pushes the envelope for big change. This is one step in this direction," she added.

Most people know and feel that we are in times of GREAT change, the 'end' times that are prophesied in Sacred Texts, and if we are to change our world, we need to change ourselves and to do things differently. LOVE, PEACE, SELFLESSNESS, FORGIVENESS and GENTLE KINDNESS expressed in everyday living are what will ultimately bring our world to a state of Peace, Happiness and Harmony. And that Inner Peace and Love towards all life, needs to be cultivated and grow like a Flame – which it is. It is an inward journey which reflects in the outer world, and it has nothing to do with intellectual or physical capabilities, status or fame.
With a Force greater that human will, an ordinary woman set off on a PEACE MISSION from Cape Town, South Africa, on the 6th November 2014, to travel through countries in Africa and beyond. Once the home was sold and business handed over to others, she set off in a mobile home to fulfill her Mission!
The main aim of the Mission is to spread the "I AM" Teachings given to humanity during the last century by the Ascended Masters, which explain the 'Laws of Life' in simple ways, the breaking of which, has caused the lack of Peace & Love and connection to our God Presence, "I AM," and the devastation of our earth over millennia.
It is also to spread the news of the end of the global slavery system, the closure of the Federal Reserve, and the freeing of humanity through the distribution of value backed currency via UN God Sky Earth – SWISSINDO :
Having been involved personally with UN SWISSINDO -God Sky Earth – and having spent 5 weeks in Indonesia visiting with Bapak Sughi (M1) I have faith that this is a God-directed Mission, and the TRUTH for the Freedom of mankind. But before the Payments 1-11 can be released to humanity, the corrupt leaders of the world need to be removed. This is happening at the current time.
Over time, there will also be a global roll-out of of funding for projects that uplift and restore the Earth. The VENUS PROJECT is a good example, and is one of the projects that has already been accepted by UN Swissindo. The plan is to establish a VENUS PROJECT in all countries of the world. Earth is far behind in its evolution, and there is a sense of urgency to this. Mankind needs to come to ways of conscious cooperation with the Elemental and Angelic Kingdoms (see the page on this site: http://peacekeepersunite.com/category/peaceful-earth/)
The Mission is also to meet and UNITE with groups and people along the way that share a common goal and vision of World Peace, United as a Holy Family. Those that are helping to bring awareness of Freedom, Hope and Happiness to all life on earth. This includes environmental preservation and restoration, food growing initiatives, healing and health, religious groups, governments and organizations involved with upliftment programs, other missionary organizations from all religions, and any group/organization bringing more Knowledge, Freedom, Love and Peace to the world!
While the mission is non-denominational, Knowledge & and an unalterable Faith in The Fathomless Love, Wisdom, Power and Forgiveness of The Almighty Father /Mother God of all, The Great "I AM", and Their Beloved Messengers, Who are directing the destiny of humanity and the earth, is at the Heart of it.
The following is offered:
1 Free courses and talks on 'The Laws of Life' and the "I AM" Teachings, according to the "I AM" Activity and 'Bridge to Freedom' Publications. These Teachings are not affiliated to any existing religious organization and do not conflict with the Sacred Texts advocating Peace, Love. & Freedom www.iamfree.co.za
2 Free Talks on TOOLS to assist in cultivating & maintaining Peace and Harmony, Faith, Love and Selflessness in our daily lives. Adhering to these simple Laws WILL bring the Happiness and Freedom we all desire!
3 Joining of groups and individuals from other cities and countries.

So I have a issue and that issue is Funko pops! I'm sure you know what they are even if you don't collect them as they seem to sell them EVERYWHERE these days
I was hoping not to actually buy many this year and then New York Toy Fair happened ( Which is a industry expo to show off what toys coming out this year) and I'm like why!? I'm such a sucker for these things! I'll be honest I'm kind of picky when it comes to my collectables though. I mostly buy Marvel stuff and even then I tend to keep it to X-men, Deadpool, Iron Man, Spider-man, Thor and Loki, Rocket and Groot and some Captain America. I also tend to buy characters from TV shows and films that I like
Like I say New York toy fair happened and I don't think Funko disappointed. You can go visit the funko blog if you want to see what they showed. They seemed to not have any DC stuff ( although they have just released the Shazam! pops) and yes there was no Avengers: Endgame which personally I'm happy for! Funko and other toy companies spoil films all to much at times! Give it a till Captain Marvel is out and things will start coming out for Endgame I'm sure (and we need another trailer!)
What I'd like to collect
The whole point of this post was to show you what I want to get from what was shown at the NY toy fair. I've already pre ordered one the Dark phoenix pop. My x-men collection is my most beloved one so I like to keep up to date and no I don't have EVERY X-men pop! Some of the older ones are WAY out of my price range and yes I'm looking forward to the movie that's coming out this year which may be the last Fox X-men movie!
The other Marvel pops that got me excited was the Spider-men far from home ones because there's a HAPPY one! Now I'm such a stan of Tony Stark and one of my OTPs is Pepperony (the other being Spiderpool) and so you gotta have Happy as part of the family right? Yes it's silly but I'm hoping we get a Pepper pop from Avengers: Endgame or just in general! (Hello Funko are you reading me?) According to the Funko blog these should be out April!
What you didn't think I'd be a KISS fan? Well I am kinda. I went to see them live when they were doing their European Sonic Boom tour in 2010 and loved it. They are doing their final tour this year not that I can afford to go again! But I'm glad they have done some new pops! If I could only get one though it would have to be Gene right! I mean that's one pretty awesome pop!
Last but but by no means least COMMUNITY finally gets some pops! Most people got excited by the US Office getting pops but this is what floats my boat! I'm so glad that they have gone with Abed and Troy in the Morning style! (Of course these images are only concept art they could change) and there's no Piers?! If you have never seen this show then you are missing out. In the UK it's currently on All 4 as a box set and yes I need to sit my ass down and binge watch it.
Well that's it for things that I have an eye on to buy over the next year! I'm looking forward to seeing what comes out with Avengers: Endgame as well so I wouldn't really say if getting most of these are actuality but we will see.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska - Natural Gas is a topic that a lot of people don't believe it will ever come to the Interior.
Interior Gas Utility is exploring potential options that may make that dream a reality.
Interior Gas Utility met with Siemens Government Technologies earlier today in a public hearing to explore options for natural gas partnerships.
The goal of the meeting was for the I-G-U board to be able to make decisions regarding prospective gas suppliers.
Kelly Laurel of Siemens Government Technology says that by building smaller units, as opposed to larger scale plants, it is more economic, and that allowing Siemens to assume responsibility for the plants in Wasilla, is beneficial for I-G-U.
I-G-U Board Member Patrice Lee, talked about their goals moving forward.
Patrice Lee, Board member with Interior Gas Utility; "Well, we have goals. We have affordable energy, and we want to clean up our air. And we want to make

This is a one manicure per week challenge, on Fridays during August, which is more my speed as far as these things go. I've only done one challenge before, and that was a 5 day one which seemed to work OK. this challenge is being hosted by Polished by Beckie and Spilled Milk Nails. Thank you, ladies, for giving me a chance to force myself to practice nail art LOL. I am excited to do my actual first ever gradient for this challenge, stay tuned to the blog to witness that next week! First, however, is today's challenge: the Throwback mani.

Julep Helena – On Wednesdays We Wear Pink
Happy Hump day!! Midway through the week and it's time for my
random weekly tribute to Mean Girls with an 'On Wednesdays We Wear Pink' post. Since Pink is not my usual color of choice, this will enable me to more fully utilize my many pink polishes. Today in addition to a pink polish, I am also using a Pink Floyd themed glitter topper and a holographic polish to add to the look. I hope you all like it.
First the base polish is Helena from Julep. My photos don't capture it, but this pink has a strong blue undertone. It's hard to explain, but as I pulled the polish wand from the bottle I picked up a strong blue-ish tint. I had heard of colors (often reds) having a blue tone to them, but didn't exactly understand how that could be until now. Very interesting! This color is a very bright pink and is almost opaque with two coats as I am showing in these photos. The first is with a photo flash and the second indirect sunlight. You can see that the flash brings out a lot more of the pink punch this pretty polish packs. 😉
Color Club Halo Hues 2013 – Eternal Beauty
Hello, everyone! I hope you are having a nice day. If you're not, take a look at this beautiful polish and smile as you bask in its holographic beauty! It's Eternal Beauty! This polish is a part of Color Club's 2013 Halo Hues collection, one of my first forays into holographic polishes. I stumbled upon this set for quite a deal and had to grab the whole thing, of course. For more info on where I got this set, check my earlier post here.
This color is a bright purple with a linear holographic effect that just begs to be stared at. In some lights it looks almost blue. It's just amazing and I am glad every time I see it that I bought it. The application of this polish was good and photos show two coats and a single later of topcoat (can't remember which, sorry). Eventually I will get all the polishes from this collection swatched and posted to the blog. All the colors are just gorgeous and the holo effect of these polishes is amazing.
I hope you're all having a great week! Thanks for stopping by.
OPI – Can't Find My Czechbook
Happy (almost) Hump Day, everyone! Today's post is part of another set I got my hands on from OPI. Their site is really awesome, you can 'try on ' their colors and even adjust the length of the nails shown in the display! Nail geekdom at its finest, I must say. But I digress, back to the topic at hand. The Euro Centrale mini set includes the polishes listed below:
- Can't Find My Czechbook
- Suzy's Hungary AGAIN!
- You're Such A BudaPest
- OY-Another Polish Joke!
The polish swatch I am sharing today is called Can't Find My Chezhbook (I just LOVE these polish names LOL). It's a baby blue creme that dries to a nice shine. It was a bit streaky, but two layers gave complete coverage as you can see below. It's a bit darker/smokier in artificial light, so if you think the blue below might be a bit too much, it does tone down. The photo below was taken in sunlight. So, I'm wearing this color, and I think to myself, "Self, you should stamp something really cool and sparkly on top of this!"
So the color I chose to stamp on top is one of the colors from Color Club's 2013 Halo Hues collection, called Beyond. I haven't swatched it yet, but will eventually. This one is a black linear holographic polish, so I thought it would fit the bill with sparkle and add some contrasting dark color too. I pulled out my Cheeky stamping plate CH2, and proceeded to perpetrate the crime against nail stamping that you see below. I don't know what it is lately, but my stamping mojo is missing. I hope I can get it back, because I LOVE stamping and it's so disappointing when you try and the end result really isn't what you had intended. Oh well, pity party over. LOL It looks OK and I can't wait to see it out in the sun, I'd like to see how much sparkle I really get.
Thanks for stopping by, as always, feel free to leave any comments if you feel so inclined. Have a great week!
Color Club Halo Hues 2013 Cosmic Fate Swatches
Cosmic Fate by Color Club
Today the polish I have for you is Cosmic Fate from the Color Club Halo Hues 2013 collection. Holographic polishes have recently been the 'apple of my eye', and when I saw some swatches of the colors in this set, I had to get them. I have a couple other Color Club polishes and have had good experiences with all of them. This is a beautiful light copper/peach colored liner holographic polish and really leaps off the nail in full sunlight. These are my first strong holo colors and I have to say that I am sorry I waited so long to buy any. The color shift in these polishes is mesmerizing and it's actually a good thing they aren't quite as animated under the glow of florescent lighting lest I might not get any work done in the course of my business day. Below are shots with indirect sunlight and indoors with a flash. All are two layers with a top coat.
I found these polishes at enospring, and their service was exceptional! I ordered on a Thursday and had it in my mailbox on Monday! They are in NJ and I am in PA, so that helped I'm sure LOL, and their packaging was very secure. All around it was a very pleasant experience!
As always, thanks for reading! I hope you have a great week!

On my walk from the bus stop to the office this morning there was a woman collapsed on the pavement by the shops. At first I thought she was ill and I actually walked up to her to see if I could help before I saw the three empty Special Brew cans and smelt the alcohol fumes. She wasn't ill, she was dead drunk at eight thirty in the morning! Really I should have guessed, the walk from the bus to to office is a little like walking through a war zone, drunks, beggars, odd looking people muttering to themselves. It feels like it's only a matter of time before I get mugged.
Today was just like yesterday really, more training on the system, this time setting up a payment plan, practice, test, role play, lunch, latte, an afternoon of product training. Yawn! I'm not getting any faster with the practice, test thing and every time we do it I feel panicky. So far I've passed every test though and so has everyone else so I still don't know what happens if anyone fails. There's a little part of me that hopes I'll fail and get sacked.
At last I didn't have to brave the war zone walking to the bus stop tonight, Kim offered me a lift home. I'm making the most if it because once the training is finished it'll be back to the bus. She's signed up for the early shift and I'll be doing the late shift. Can't say I like the idea of that walk at eight o'clock at night in the dark but I guess I'll have to cross that bridge when I come to it.
