What's shocking about Jesus?
Are we making a point or making a difference? . . .
Tales as old as time, but with truth that is timeless.
All of our challenges share one thing in common.
Are you who the person you are looking for is looking for?
The Easter story hinged on two unlikely characters, . . .
Countless apps are downloaded, but only a few are used to their full potential.
Have you ever thought about what God wishes?
Two thousand years ago, a gathering of people . . .
How can you make a difference in a big world . . .
Regardless of what you believe,Regardless of how you behave,Jesus invites you to...Follow
Lots of people all over the world appreciate, respect, and even follow the teachings of Jesus without believing he rose from the dead. But the people who recorded his story and teachings wouldn't recommend that. Their message was clear: Jesus rose from the dead. He is Savior and Lord.
Not sure how to get where you want to go? Well, ask someone who has been there. Chances are...You'll Be Glad You Did.
Promises. Relationships are defined by them. We've all made promises...and broken some. Ever felt like God made you a promise? Or maybe broke one?
When God is silent, we're tempted to think he's absent. That's why the Christmas story is so important. You can't separate the "Silent Night" of Christmas from the 400 years of Silent Nights between the Old and New Testaments. Christmas gives us a real, tangible, and historical hope. It reminds us that even when God is silent, He isn't absent.
Our church is a stewardship. It isn't about us. It's not even about our city anymore. The church in America is undergoing a transformation . . . and we're part of it. Churches all over the country look to us for leadership. Our success gives them permission to do new things, to try new approaches. But to continue to be a church unchurched people love to attend, we need to be fully engaged. We are serious about transforming the local church in our city and the nation. We want to change the world by changing the church. How can you participate?
We live in a world loaded with information about how to get rich. But nobody's saying much about what to do when you cross that elusive line between not rich and rich.
Here are two Bible verses everybody can relate to: 'I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate, I do . . . For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.' Can I get an 'Amen'? Perhaps a 'Been there, done that'? So what do you do when you just can't seem to do what you know you ought to do? Fortunately, the gentleman who described the problem provided the answer.
Superman had kryptonite. Wile E. Coyote had the Road Runner. Achilles had his heel. There are just some people or some things that have our number. They own us. And there are days we feel just as powerless by the challenges we face in life. Some of us are owned by our past regrets. For others it's the uncertainty of the future. Regardless of what owns us,we all want to be free.
Family. We all have one. While some of us loved our 'growing up' years, others of us couldn't wait to move out and start fresh. Either way, we want our Future Family to be a step up from our families of origin. Most of us want something better for our children. But what? When it comes to family, what does a preferred future look like? What exactly are we aiming for?
We wake up each Sunday, fight the hassle of the morning, and show up at church. And it's easy to turn the routine of church-going into a misguided belief that our attendance is what matters to God. But Jesus and his brother James tell us differently. In this message, Andy Stanley urges us to bridge the gap between the information we hear on Sunday morning and the application that will make all the difference in our lives.
Is praying ever a struggle? Do you wonder what you should say to God? Why not start with the prayers of Jesus?
With great power comes great responsibility...and the freedom to neglect it.
Climate. It's not exclusive to the weather. Think of it this way: What happens to the climate when you step into the room? For our relationships to improve, our 'climates' must change Are the people in your life worth the effort?
Ask 100 people to define it, you'll get 100 different definitions. It's likely that all 100 will be incorrect.
Do unto others. Love is patient, love is kind. Turn the other cheek. It's easy to appreciate Jesus' teachings. But then the Bible writers tell us that he rose from the dead. And a man rising from the dead is harder to believe; for some, it's so hard to believe that they cherry-pick the teachings and refute the resurrection. In this message, Andy Stanley recounts the truth about Jesus' life and death that Paul says is "of first importance."
Regardless of our history or abilities, God can do miraculous things through us when we bring our lives to Him.
There's NO win in COMPARISON. Let's face it. Not a day goes by that you're not tempted to glance to the left and to the right to see how you measure up to the people around you. But it doesn't stop there, does it? You're tempted to compare your children to other children, your spouse to other spouses! It's frustrating. It's exhausting. It's a TRAP! In this 3-part series, Andy Stanley explores the difficult—but not impossible—challenge of escaping The Comparison Trap.
Everybody hurts... We can't go through life without someone stomping on our hearts. Someone has to pay... The desire to right the wrong can lead you down a dark, dangerous path. Will you take it?
Following the teachings of Christ has lots of benefits - financial security, relational stability, moral margin. But at some point, being a Christian will cost you something. You'll feel a nudge to start, stop, get out of, or maybe go. In this message, Andy reframes the choices you have when following Christ begins to cost you something. Will it be worth it to give in to the nudge?
Originally, "baptism" was not a religious concept. Yet over time, baptism has become an exclusively religious idea - one that even rouses deep emotion and controversy. In this message, Andy Stanley unpacks baptism, from its birth with John the Baptist to its modern equivalent. If you are a follower of Christ and baptism is still on your "to-do" list, this message may be the nudge you need to finally go public.
We all make resolutions. We all break resolutions. But if we're honest, there is something in each of our lives - a habit, a relationship, a debt - that deserves our attention this year. In this message, Andy recounts the Old Testament story of Nehemiah and draws out a lesson that can be the key to finally accomplishing the one thing we each need to put our minds to this year.
The ingredients in the Christmas story seem kind of random: a decree from Caesar, an engaged virgin, an angelic announcement, three wise men, and no room at the inn. Doesn't sound like the narrative we'd write if we were God. Some of the circumstances we may be dealing with this year aren't exactly what we'd write for our own story, either. In this message, Andy Stanley challenges us to respond to the seemingly random curve balls in our lives the same way Mary did to God's biggest curve ball yet.
Christmas is complicated enough. There are presents to pick, parking spots to find, and family dynamics to navigate. The story of Christmas - God's most important message to mankind - shouldn't be complicated. In this message, Andy Stanley unpacks the bottom line of Christmas. And it's a bottom line that is truly "good news."
What do our waistlines and our wallets have in common? Our giving habits share a pattern with our health habits. And in both cases, there's a better option out there. In this message, Andy Stanley challenges us to adopt a superior habit of giving. The difference we can make by doing so in 2012 is immeasurable.
Guilt isn't a church issue; it's a human issue. Guilt exists where there is expectation. It's an understanding that we haven't measured up. The good news is that guilt doesn't have to stand between you and God. In this message, Tom Shefchunas looks at how God can use your guilt to draw you closer to himself, freeing you from crippling regret.
The game of life drives us to measure everything. More money, more house, more power, just more... We strive for a life beyond measure, but it seems beyond our reach. We take three steps forward and two steps back, and just when we think we've almost reached it, the line moves. Is the immeasurable life attainable or just another hopeless pursuit?
"Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share." - 1 Timothy 6:18 Imagine the difference we could make as a church community if we followed Paul's command? Early Christians did. They were known for the extraordinary generosity they displayed. Is that how people in our communities would describe us? In this message, Andy challenges us to rise to the occasion. To unleash a wave of generosity. To be rich - in a big, big way.
What do you do... When God feels distant? When God doesn't cooperate? When God seems late? We all face times when it feels like God is far away. Our prayers are unanswered and our circumstances go from bad to worse. During these times, God doesn't just seem distant; he seems distracted. People tell us to pray more. Preachers tell us to have more faith. But what does the Bible say? In this series, Andy Stanley explores the lives of three men from the New Testament, each loved by God, but whose circumstances seemed to tell a different story.
Every action, habit, and behavior is first born from a thought. So when Jesus began his public ministry, his very first message addressed our thoughts - not our behaviors. Because changing our lives will only happen after we change the pesky thought-patterns that keep us stuck in unhealthy habits. In this message, Rodney Anderson examines the very first word Jesus preached. And this familiar word's meaning may surprise you.
So how's that 401k looking these days?
How 'bout your personal positivity index?
Thinking about firing off an email or two to your congressional representative?
Already did?
Didn't hear back?
If you are like most Americans, you're wondering what in the heck is going on in Washington. And you're probably wondering what in the heck you are supposed to do while you wait for somebody to fix things.
Well, we've got an idea.
What if we don't wait around for somebody else to fix things? What if we go ahead and start fixing it ourselves?
Some of us are naïve enough to think that if we get that We the People thing cranked up, we just might be able to get this country on the road to recovery.
Sound like a good idea?
Then you're ready for Recovery Roadby Andy Stanley.
Growth, accountability, belonging, and care happen in Community Groups . . . in circles, not rows. It's easy to stumble away from faith when you are a nameless person sitting in a row on Sunday morning. But it's almost impossible to stumble away, or to stay away, when you're in community, doing life with a group of people. In this message, Andy reminds us that Jesus said stumbling blocks are inevitable. But pity those who fall and have no one to help them up.
Do the words of Jesus ever shock you? Did he really mean to say them? What if he did?
Are we making a point or making a difference? It's easier to make a point; to adopt a policy; to put up a billboard or hand out a pamphlet. Making a difference is messier. It requires relating to people with whom you may not agree. But that is what Jesus modeled. In this message, Andy shows us why relational evangelism - despite being more complicated and despite looking inconsistent at times - is what we were called to as a church.
Passed down from generation to generation... Legends of battles and floods, kings and giants... Tales as old as time, but with truth that is timeless.
We've all faced challenges in life that led us to the place where we realized, "I can't fix this. I can't beat this. I can't figure this out or find the way out." Some of these trials are very common while others seem quite uncommon causing us to feel like we're fighting alone. However, all of them share at least one thing in common. And that one thing, might just be the uncommon denominator to finding the way out.
Are you who the person you are looking for is looking for? - Andy Stanley
The Easter story hinged on two unlikely characters, Nick and Joe. These two men's actions allowed first century Christians, and eventually us today, to be confident in Christ's resurrection. In this message, Andy tells the story of Nick and Joe's boldness in the face of great personal risk. The Easter story might never have made it out of the first century without them!
There are various apps available for download with categories ranging from weather and traffic to addicting games and networking tools. With such a huge selection to choose from, countless apps are downloaded, but only a few are used. When it comes to our lives, the Bible gives us many applications to live by, but the change happens as we apply them. In this 6-week series, Andy Stanley and Jeff Henderson identify five life applications worth living by.
We all have wishes. Some are big, some are small. Some of us have a lot of wishes. Some of us just have a few. Have you ever thought about what God wishes? . . . for you, for us? In this 2 part series Joel Thomas explores two things God wishes for each one of us.
Two thousand years ago, a gathering of people in a middle-eastern city began a movement that would circle the globe and leave its mark on individuals and cultures on every continent. The movement would eventually become known as The Church. Whether you consider yourself a church person or not, join Andy Stanley as he brings to life the story of the local church movement in this series, BIG CHURCH.
How can you make a difference in a big world with big needs when everything you have to offer seems, by comparison, small and inadequate?

My camper came with an oven, but it's just for looks. It burns everything and it's not due to user error I found these great campsite creations that I wanted to share that require no oven.
Campfire Cones via Chef Jessica Bright I think Marshmallos, Chocolate, Peanuts and Hot Fudge would be great and after it's cooked, add a small scoop of ice cream on top.
Three Cheese Potatoes via Taste of Home These look fantastic just as they are!
Grilled Pierogies and Kielbasa via Hot To Simplify I'm not crazy about the mustard sauce in the recipe but love the idea of grilling them. Add some kielebasa and it's a great meal.
You can find more RV/Camping stuff on my pinterest board and let me know yours, would love to follow!
What other types of food do you like to cook around a campfire?

Carpe KM
For best results, seize the opportunity.
By Jerry Ash
At the recent KM Asia conference in Singapore, Alex Bennet, former knowledge-management (KM) lead for the US Department of Navy (DON) and founder of Mountain Quest Institute in West Virginia, US, talked about building and implementing a KM architecture that provided the platform for knowledge sharing throughout the US Navy and Marines.
That programme became the model for KM initiatives in other military branches and agencies of the US federal government.
I was next at the podium and had included the DON story among the ten case reports chosen to demonstrate my topic, The Power of Collaborative Thinking. I had not expected Alex to dwell on the DON story because she has been so busy at Mountain Quest during the past several years, developing new knowledge about KM and thats what she usually talks about.
Having been upstaged, I decided to have some fun with Alex.
That Alex Bennet. Isnt she something? She has every reason to be proud of her accomplishments at the Department of Navy and thats why I wrote a special case report for Inside Knowledge magazine. But lets face it, if any of us in this room had been handed what Alex started with, we too could be a heroes.
From the get go she had the commander of the Pacific Fleet a four star admiral already practising seat-of-the-pants KM and advocating knowledge sharing Navy-wide. The task was assigned to the new chief information officer (CIO), Alexs former colleague who left after working with her on a KM initiative there. Soon, her CIO buddy was calling for her to join him in his new assignment to help reorganise. Not too surprisingly, one of the three new departments created was KM in disguise, and guess who got to be department head and unofficial KM lead? Alex, of course.
I went on to acknowledge that even with all that high level support, spreading KM to two million people in four years was an amazing feat.
The banter got me thinking. Almost all of my stories were kind of like that spectacular successes all starting with an opportunity. By the time I reached my assignment in Moscow I was calling it Carpe KM seize the KM opportunity. Here are some cases in point:
- Raj Datta seized the day when MindTree Consulting was in its formative stage in New Jersey, in preparation for its move back to India. The ten founders were building the company on values of democracy, openness, transparency, trust, questioning, communication and teamwork an equation perfectly suited for the KM approach. Datta became MindTree Mind #17 and succeeded in embedding knowledge sharing in the roots of the organisation it was forming. Now hes a conference speaker;
- At SAIC, Kent Greenes, former KM lead at BP, had been hired to provide KM consulting to its clients. SAIC did not have an internal KM programme of its own. A downturn in the economy and resulting shrinkage in consulting assignments forced the company to look at redundancy wherever it could find it and Greenes saw a chance to nudge the company into formal KM. In the midst of cuts, Greenes convinced management that a centralised KM programme would not only save money by changing the way the company worked, but would assist consultants in winning more bids;
- Tom Barfield was managing a mature KM programme at Accenture when management began to move its attention from KM to training and development (T&D) following a plan to gradually shift some of T&D to self-directed learning. Barfield recognised an opportunity to broaden the profile of KM by making knowledge a continuum where training, learning and KM would be under the same roof. Today you cant tell where one ends and the other begins;
- At Cadbury Schweppes, Arthur Shelley knew the company was disappointed that its decades of merger and acquisition had not resulted in the hoped for shared knowledge and market strength. Shelley seized the opportunity, proposing a change-management programme based on the networking strategies of KM;
- Garry Cullen stopped a plan to develop a KM-based expertise locator system at Lend Lease Corporation based on KM software. Instead of buying software, he convinced Lend Lease to put its money in knowledge workers four facilitators in its four world regions who would act as match-makers for knowledge seekers and sharers.
I have since seen this pattern in most KM success stories and the conclusion is obviousKM works best wherever it is needed and wanted.
One of the speakers in Singapore was Niall Sinclair, whose consulting practice is in Canada. Sinclair this year published a book, Stealth KM, and I recall my conversation with him after his presentation. Niall, I said, I dearly love the idea of stealth KM, but Ive never found one story that shows a real success. I have lots of disaster stories, though, and Ive come to the conclusion that a KM missionary would be better off choosing the right location for battle. Can you give me one success story where an individual in the mid-level of an organisation has started a KM initiative by developing a personal network, which spread through the department and eventually blossomed company-wide?
He said he had six success stories in his book. I havent had a chance to buy it yet, but my advice to KM wannabes is still to go where the opportunity is. Carpe KM!

Well suited for my purpose

Comments about Belkin� SurgeMaster� 6-Outlet Surge Protector; White, 6-ft. Cord, 1045 Joules:
Has solid metal frame for added safety. That's what I wanted since it's mounted next to the electric service panel. I used at entry point for cable, internet, and telephone service for the power supplies and to filter the phone line. The phone jack is only for single line but that's all I need and actually an extra since I didn't see that feature on any other metal units. The 885 is well suited for my purpose. I use additional protection for actual equipment, Belkin FP-30 for home theatre, additional surge protectors for computers, etc. Quite satisfied with the 885 for my purpose.

About Me Tech Savvy
This was the only place I could find a reasonably priced surge protector with a metal case. Advice from experts 9firefighters) recommend a metal case. Much safer than a plastic case that can melt during a power surge thus creating a potential fire hazard.

Snohomish County's homeless count shows decrease in numbers
By STAFF REPORT
Bothell Reporter Reporter
January 25, 2013 · Updated 2:33 PM
For this year's count, approximately 150 volunteers spent the day and early evening gathering information on Snohomish County's homeless population. This year's total – still incomplete – shows 1,960 individuals in 1,117 households without a permanent place to live. This compares to last year's final count of 2,387 individuals in 1,410 households. Of the individuals counted this year, an estimated 722 were homeless children under the age of 18.
County staff and members of the Homeless Policy Task Force will spend the next month closely studying and verifying data from the Point in Time count, while also examining reasons why the unsheltered count decreased.
"While any decrease in homelessness numbers is good news for our community, there are still about 2,000 people in our community who need permanent housing solutions," Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon said. "We will continue to look for new ways to improve housing options for all people who live in Snohomish County."
Homeless numbers for 2013 can be divided into three categories: those sheltered in emergency shelter or transitional housing, those who are unsheltered and on the streets, and those who are precariously housed (often referred to as "doubled up temporarily" or "couch surfing").
Those sheltered for the night of the count totaled 1,362 individuals in 671 households. This compared to 1,347 individuals in 667 households for the 2012 count. There were 298 individuals in 254 households surveyed who did not have shelter. This compares to 717 individuals in 542 households for the 2012 count. Finally, an additional 300 individuals in 192 households were precariously housed. This compares to 323 individuals in 201 households for the 2012 count.
"The important next step is looking at how different populations are affected by homelessness – including single mothers with children, those with mental-health and chemical-dependency issues, as well as veterans – and finding how we can help them," said Ken Stark, Snohomish County's Human Services Director.
The Point in Time count is a state and federal requirement. The results help ensure that vital federal and state funding continues to come into the community to fight homelessness. Data from the annual count also is used to understand how widespread homelessness is in Snohomish County and who is most affected.

The magician asks for a person to think in a number of 3 digits. After the person thinks of a number, the magician writes in a paper block the number that she thought. The number that she thought is the same as it is written in the block.
This trick has an excellent effect.

This is a beautiful puzzle, made of the same 7 pieces. I thought it would be larger than it was, but the small size is quite nice. The wood is beautiful and the puzzle is very well made except for a few glue spots and a couple irregularities on edges, the craftsmanship was 8 of 10 I would say. Difficult to put back together!

Frequently Asked Questions / Types of Cancer / OncoLink Vet / Veterinary Oncology
Lili Duda, VMD
Last Modified: November 1, 2001
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
I was wondering if any research has been done on the effects of hormones like estrogen on keeping dog Mast Cell Tumors (MCT) in check? I know it may just be coincidence, but my Rhodesian ridgeback had one MCT for 3 yrs, and after she was spayed, developed 4 more within the next year (which have been removed). Just curious if there is any new research out there!
Lili Duda, VMD, Editor of the OncoLink Veterinary Oncology Section Menu, responds:
There is nothing in the veterinary literature to indicate that estrogens play much of a role in canine mast cell tumors. The little anecdotal evidence that exists is contradictory. On the one hand, some evidence suggests that estrogen receptors are present on malignant mast cells. This would suggest that estrogens might promote tumor cell growth, and removal of estrogen would cause tumors to regress. On the other hand, there is a syndrome of multicentric mast cell tumors in young Siamese cats that typically regresses spontaneously as the cats mature. In addition, there is a mastocytosis syndrome in adolescents that regresses when they reach puberty (it should be noted however that the human disease differs significantly from the canine and feline disease.

Kirin Tor Familiar
Binds when picked up
Use: Teaches you how to summon this companion.
Hovers about and occasionally produces a non-damaging Arcane Explosion.
» Video
Vocalizations (on-click)
Simply speak to Archmage Vargoth to receive this pet. Vargoth is housed in a secluded spire atop the Violet Citadel within Dalaran. In order to access Vargoth, one must teleport to his location using a tome rewarded by the "Higher Learning" achievement. This achievement entails reading 8 different books about arcane magic that spawn throughout Dalaran. The books appear to be on 3 hour spawn timers and share spawn points with roughly 30 other non-achievement books. Read the Kirin Tor Familiar Guide for the most efficient method to collect this pet.
Note that while a warlock and two others who have access to Vargoth can summon another player to his location, that player cannot receive the pet without having completed the achievement.
I had one book and then I was camping, and circuiting...and it just wasn't paying off. THEN the rolling restart uccured! My sugestion is to log on immediatly after the rolling restart - get the pattern down so you can do it in just a couple minutes. I got FIVE of them at the rolling restart (several were junk). I only have 2 left now. I'll park my character by one, and every time I log on, I'll check them, but I'm looking forward to the next rolling restart.
Finally got this little guy, talk a bout a pain in the neck, it took me 3 weeks to get him but you know what it was worth the effort! :)
Well time to feed him a pet biscut! :D
Took me several weeks, and camping out with several others in Dalaran for book spawns. I did this one back in 2009ish... there was a channel that someone created for book hunters and everyone was kept updated that way for spawns. Worked out nice.
Here are waypoint macros you can use with the addon TomTom. You will need a total of three macros to hold all of the /way commands because of the per-macro character limit.
I have to post them in that link because this message cannot hold enough characters.
Incredibly annoying how much they've shrunk this pet.
Also, make sure all your guild mates known that you're looking for this, maybe they're looking for the books too and you can help each other.
I just couldn't seem to get the final book, then randomly
I checked today (after 5 wks & 6 days of junk books) the book 'Introduction' finally spawned! Promised myself I won't be doing this again >.>
EDIT: After less than two days of working on this achievement, I have my pet. Definitely not as difficult as I thought it'd be! A nice mix of traveling the circuit and camping, and bam, there it was. He's my new favorite and I'm glad I finally have him.
I had heard that more than one real book can't spawn at the same time. Well let me tell you that on the first day I found 4 books all spawned at the same time. The other 4 of course didn't spawn like that. This achievement took about 4 days to complete and that was with heavy camping. Except for the moments I am sleeping I checked every 3-4 hours. ALSO I want to point out that (on my server at least) the books don't spawn for closer to four hours
OK, this guy's beginning to get a little too "familiar" with me. He's always invading my personal space! And when he doesn't get what he wants, he throws a tantrum and spams Arcane Explosion. Now that I think about it, maybe all entities summoned from the Twisting Nether are behavioral. For example, my warlock friend's Voidwalker is always demanding that she "send him back" (which is really starting to erode her self esteem). Meanwhile, her succubus is busy slapping her own behind and trying to seduce anything that moves. And don't even get me started on her emotionally abusive felguard...

You sir have done these minis supreme justice. I love how you are using the Purp as a secondary to the Bone. It gives them a kinda photo-negative look that is pure bliss.
More I say!
On the note of the Talos...very cool mini...very unreliable unit. It is a beast in close combat, assuming you have given the Dice Gods an appeasing sacrifice. It's gun CAN do horrific things to infantry...whether or not it will is in question each shooting phase. Regardless, they do add a wonderful flavor to any battle, generally in the for of comic relief. If it's a matter of a points for a Webway Portal however...take the Talos.

Most of the long distance trains in India have bookings opened 90 days before the train ride. There are some that have a shorter period available.
Which exact Indian trains have reservations open only 30 day prior to departure?
From Seat61: There may not be a hard rule which trains fall into the 90 or 30 day category. If you are interested in a particular train, you can try to book it online 60 days in the future and see whether you can book it. You can try cleartrip or the official Indian railway site Interestingly enough cleartrip allows me to book 'Delhi to Kalka' in April 2012 (88 days from now), so the 30 days mentioned above may no longer be correct. |
According to the Indian Railways site You can get a partial list (though not official) of Inter city trains from Wiki |
You have to be very specific where you are going. In some parts of India trains are overloaded if it is some particular time (reasons: cheap and fast). Some of the routes are always full in 89 days advance (particularly long routes metropolitan trains.) There is an Tatkal scheme (quick time reservation) which allows you to book the seats in 2 days advance. Tickets under this scheme get over in a very short period of time (from an hour to 5-6 hours), so you have to be very sharp and login to http://www.irctc.co.in/ at sharp 8:00 o clock (The time when reservation starts) and book your tickets. Expect long time in booking tickets at morning time. If the pages are coming slow let them come by that speed, (DO NOT REFRESH , or you have to start it again.) There are some travel agents who can book the tickets for you with some extra cost (Normally INR 450 per person). You have to browse the local listing for the same (go to http://www.sulekha.com) to find the listing of those agents. |

Digital Agenda
Report from the workshop 20 "Digital Literacy and e-Inclusion" DAE action 66
The workshop noted that digital literacy and eInclusion is a journey: from awareness, through inclusion, engagement and ultimately to empowerment. Sustainable and scalable solutions are needed. There are diverse and various routes to eInclusion (different models, places, partnerships). On a policy side strong and clear argument becomes visible for Digital literacy for inclusive society and competitive economy.
Mainstreaming eLearning in National Policies: How can we make change happen?
This paper is based on a dialogue that summarises and responds to Workshop 08 of the Digital Agenda Assembly: Mainstreaming eLearning in National Policies, which took place on June 16th, 2011. It explores new ideas regarding how to make change happen by asking: do we have concrete ideas on how to introduce change in our educational systems? The workshop generated debate on issues related to both policy and practice in order to involve stakeholders from the educational sector in a discussion on the best strategies for improving learning environments.
The Digital Agenda Assembly explored new ideas regarding how to make change happen in the educational system. At the eG8, Robert Murdoch recalled that education was a pending challenge for our already digital societies. However, the question remains: do we have concrete ideas about how to make changes in educational systems?
The politics and practices surrounding the integration of technology and education raise many questions, and the extent to which this integration enacts real change is currently a critical debate within our field. Therefore, this discussion opens with a series of challenges related to the discourse on change, expressed in terms of four key areas: innovation, infrastructure, impact and pedagogical vision.
Innovation has been identified as a necessary element for creating change but the best way for introducing innovative practices is not always clear. How can we capture the innovation that takes place at the local level? Are we sure that we can transfer innovation as it is, or would it be better to concentrate on the inspirational dimension of some initiatives, in order to generate a myriad of new ones?

Most homeowners would be willing to switch energy providers in order to be more environmentally friendly.
Disconnection levels among energy suppliers have decreased since the second quarter of 2009, new figures show.
National Energy Action (NEA) has urged consumers not to compromise their health while trying to reduce bills from their energy suppliers.
Individuals who are struggling to pay larger than usual bills from energy suppliers as a result of the prolonged period of colder weather suffered in the UK could find assistance to help them get by.
Consumers have been warned that homes with poor insulation could face hefty bills from energy suppliers.
Renewable hydro energy is a good way for energy suppliers to reduce their carbon footprint, the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (Sepa) has said.
An ambitious new project could see energy suppliers provide consumers with solar energy collected in space.
Britons living in Victorian homes could benefit the most from making the effort to compare energy suppliers and switch to the cheapest option.
The importance of taking the time to compare energy suppliers to get the cheapest deal has once again been highlighted with the news that British homes leaked a collective £1.2 billion worth of heat during the recent cold snap.
It is worthwhile taking the time to compare energy suppliers to find the best deal, one newspaper has highlighted.
Energy efficiency is one of the key attributes consumers look for when buying a new appliance, a new survey has found.
Energy and climate change minister Ed Miliband has expressed the UK's commitment to using renewable energy in order to fight climate change.

Mean green machine
25 May 2006
Paul Roos's Springboks of 1906 would have no chance against John Smit's monsters of 2006 if the two teams were to play against each other today.
Apart from the law changes – which would surely take months for the Original Boks to learn – they would simply be too light and small to stand a chance.
According to Die Burger newspaper, research undertaken by Professor Hans de Ridder of the school for biokinetics and sports science at the North-West University (Puk campus), as well as Edri Meyer, a post-graduate student, shows that the Boks are on average nearly 23kg heavier and about 10cm taller than the players who wore the green and gold a century ago.
On average the Springboks now weigh 99.2kg, compared to the 76kg a hundred years ago.
The forwards on average weigh about 110.8kg and backs about 87.5kg. A century ago it was about 83kg and 72kg.
They are also taller – on average 1.86m in their socks, exactly 10cm taller than the 1.76cm of the past.
De Ridder believes that evolution differs from place to place, but on average people are growing between 1 and 2cm taller and between 1 and 3kg heavier every decade.
Improved nutrition and supplements also lead to bigger players.
"The training methods are also more professional and scientific. The players are doing, for example, a lot of strength exercises in the gymnasium, which increases muscle mass," De Ridder told Die Burger.
It is hoped to eventually determine when the evolution pattern evens out. De Ridder thinks it is important that attention is given to this research, because it could have an influence on injury tendencies.
"It's not just a bigger opponent you have to tackle, but it also puts a bigger burden on the muscles and ligaments."

25 May 2006, 07:25 amHistory should also be a factor, 1906 is only a few years after the Anglo Boer war.
25 May 2006, 07:27 amSorry meaning?
25 May 2006, 07:55 am"The forwards on average weigh about 110.8kg" man thats heavy!
25 May 2006, 08:14 amSo the backs of 2006 would have scrummed the forwards of 1906 to pieces and then sent the ball out wide to our forwards (who spend more time in the backline anyway). I can't see Bakkies Botha being troubled by the 1906, 75kg plod at outside centre who runs the hundred in 12,5.
The funny thing about it is, after reading a book on Springbok history, the SA touring teams of the early 1900′s were considered "man-mountains" when they arrived overseas.
Our scrum vs theirs? 886.4 kg vs 664kg. They may have conceded a few tightheads.
I'd love to see the comparable 40m and 100m times for the respective backlines. I imagine the team of 2006 would probably be on average 1,5 seconds quicker.
25 May 2006, 08:26 amIf you look at the size of American football players, basketball players and even their track and field stars, it seems that this evolution is a good few decades ahead on that side of the Atlantic. And I'm not just talking about fat linebackers. It's not uncommon at all to hear of 6ft 8″ athletes, ripped like Zeus, weighing 280lbs (which, by my calculations, is just shy of 130kg). How much of this is 'roids I don't know. But if they start getting serious about rugby, they can surely scrape together a ton+ pack and some seriously speedy backs.
25 May 2006, 09:53 amIts like saying the sharks were the best team…
25 May 2006, 10:07 amI'm sure the current boks would have won the match by points, but can you imagine the violence at the breakdowns!
In those days the guys had a lot less scruples about giving you the beating of your life. I think some of those "lightweights" would even make Bakkies think twice before blikseming into a ruck. And high tackles, taking a guy out in the air? Please, you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
What a War it would have been! Unlike today, buckets of blood would probably be the norm by half-time. I dunno if size and speed would be enough to beat the dog in the old boys. You may win the game – but first you have to survive the fight!
25 May 2006, 10:08 amPompies
It means that as a result of Lord Kitcheners policy of destroying most farms in South Africa in an attempt to stop resupply of the boer commando's and moving the occupants of those farms into internment camps there was as a result a severe food shortage in SA.
Malnutrition was common. With obvious consequinces.
25 May 2006, 10:20 amWell I guess we will never know !! Besides , rugby os more than size and weight. I once saw goergie Gregan stop NZ prop Richard Loe dead in his tracks and Loe had at least 20-30 Kg's on Gragan , plus Loe was running at him so he had momentum as well. Technique and Guts is needed as well , with the latter being something that seems to be missing in our rugby
25 May 2006, 11:06 amI remember walking through a corridor in the North Leagues club in Sydney that was lined with the jerseys of Aussies rugby league legends from the 1920's and 1930's.
Now I am not exactly built like a 'Bok loose forward but I would have struggled to get my arm into any one of the jerseys … these oaks were seriously small and could only have made it as jockeys in todays sporting world …
25 May 2006, 11:07 amall u need to do is put the current bok team in england jerseys and then let them play the 1906 boks. i know who i would bet on.
25 May 2006, 12:03 pmThe past players were pound for pound a lot tougher and stronger than our current lot.They were the real hard men of the earth farmers and hunters.They could give and take punishment.And play longer ..playing for peanuts not the Rand with passion and commitment.
Tough ********.
They did no gym work.But real hard work out in the fields made 'em that.Hard buggers.
In the moderen day of automation players pump up in the gym to muscles but they are so injury prone,playing for the almighty Rand with questionable commitment.
Wanting to be cotton wooled in order to be fit and ready for a tournament.
You'd almost think some of out Bokke are muscled bound sissies who are affraid of contact.
Respect for the old brigade!
25 May 2006, 12:07 pmSome oakes have some cool insight on this sight …
tygershark lovely stuff !
25 May 2006, 15:13 pmKatman LMFAO dude if your talking about Americans BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA dont know where this Myth of Zues athletes comes from, have you ever seen the average American?? ***** bells lol.
They are big people, but American Football only requires you to run around for 5 minutes every 30 minutes lol.
My Sister went out with a Marine who served in the Gulf for two years, he came to Visit us in SA, i never met such a Morphie in my life, all sif foot six and 260 pounds of MARINE muscle.. Couldent cope with the SA way of life lol, let alone take BOERITJIE ON ON THE SPORTS GROUND -
25 May 2006, 15:58 pmEven over the last 10 years players have changed. i watched the 96 NZ v SA games recently and players then looked small compared to the current lot. Players now are faster and bigger but take players from another time and give them the same training as now and watch the change.
Take Vaaiga Tuigamala (Inga the winger) he was a monster when he played but was only 94kg. John Kirwan was only 92kg and he was considered big in his day. Now big wingers are 100kg or more.
Colin Meads was a man mountain at 1.92m and 102kg. Todays forwards might be bigger but tougher? No bloody way.

I lived in the USA for 12 years, I studied in College there (university), and was one of 2 foreigners that played football for the college. The whole American mindset is based on stop start affair, "timeouts", the Americans will never catch on in the game of rugby. As several bloggers have mentioned, its more than just about being big, strong and fast. Lets say team 'A' is a team of what u have just described of 280lbs and fast as light and 6'8′ tall Americans, and team 'B' is of the small Boks of 1906. My money is on the smaller 1906 team, why? Fitness, Endurance, No "timeouts", and more importantly "Passion". Roids, yes I knew a few guys who used that stuff in College and so some of those okes were manufactured beasts. I played football against great players, but nothing hurt more than a ruck or a tackle in Rugby. USA will be competitive in the game of rugby, and one day be able to compete with the better 2nd tier nations, but they will always lose to the nations who have more passion and drive for the game. Work Ethic and understanding of the little things in rugby is what they will also lack.
25 May 2006, 18:01 pmThe Boks of old played with much pride,without padded vests and soft leather boots.These were the real manne !
25 May 2006, 22:18 pmAs an American who loves Springbok rugby – (played a bit with the Jo'burg Pirates) can have only a few things to say in response with an American point of view. Football players here are built to be explosive. They'd never last the endurance of rugby players. However, we Yanks may never really possess the passion for the sport – but certainly have a mentality to be the best. Whether we buy talent or nurture it, a few generations and I reckon we'd have a pretty fearsome team. We're still working on our soccer culture. Rugby's next. Cricket? I wouldn't get my hopes up. Let's go Bokke!
25 May 2006, 22:41 pmLeather boots and padded vest, which might not even be necessary if they didn't pump themselves with supplements, moreover they were also without all the blonde streaks we're seeing on the rugby filed these days,I mean REALLY!!There's more fake blonde men on our rugby fields that in the entire *** village of Cape Town!!
Old school were the last real "manne"!!!
25 May 2006, 22:45 pmI totally agree with "wpforeverâ€.
Not only were Old School without leather boots and padded vest, which might not even be necessary if they didn't pump themselves with supplements, moreover they were also without all the blonde streaks we're seeing on the rugby filed these days,I mean REALLY!!
