This goal of this blog is for me to soak up wisdom from my father and share it with you. I have been blessed to have an incredibly influential father, Josh McDowell. He has written over 150 books and spoken to more young people live than anyone in history. But what I appreciate most about my father is his love for my mom, for his kids, and now for his many grandkids. Enjoy!
What Is the Key To Being an Effective Debater? Stories and Tips from Josh McDowell.Posted September 26, 2016 by Sean McDowell
What Is the Key To Being an Effective Debater? Stories and Tips from Josh McDowell.
SEAN: Dad, you've done over 250 debates on college campuses around the world on a host of topics. What is the key to being an effective debater?
JOSH: First, do your homework. Thoroughly know the subject. Second, love your opponent, because the best way to win a debate is to love your opponent when you're destroying his arguments. Third, always find a way to work in your personal testimony as it relates to that subject. The person with an argument is almost always at the mercy of the person with experience. The Christian should have both the argument and the experience.
SEAN: Are debates still important and effective in culture today?
JOSH: Not as much as they used to be. When Evidence that Demands a Verdictfirst came out, there was not much access to the evidence for Christianity. And so the book took off and was an instant bestseller. But today there is much more access to the arguments for and against Christianity right on the Internet. The benefit of a debate, though, is that people get to both sides challenged right before them, and then they can decide which side is most reasonable. This rarely happens on the Internet, as so much bad information gets passed on as if it's true. So, debates provide the opportunity for truth correction.
SEAN: What was your most memorable debate and why?
JOSH: One of them was definitely with the Muslim apologist Ahmad Deedat who was probably the top Islamic apologist in the world at that time. He was literally destroying everyone who debated him. Christians were deeply embarrassed at how badly he beat them. I received a personal letter from about 40 churches in South Africa, asking if I would debate him. And to this day, I thank God I said yes. It was probably the best debate because of the impact of it. It literally changed evangelism in the entire continent of Africa and beyond. I loved him personally, and cared for him, but he was humiliated after the debate. He only distributed his half of the debate through all Africa. Once the rest of the debate was released, his credibility and trust was completely undermined.
Amazingly, a close relative of his came to me a few years ago when I was visiting South Africa and said, "I felt you needed to know some details around the death of Ahmad. The day before he died, he asked me to find a copy of your book More Than A Carpenter. So, I brought it to him and he read some of it." We won't know until after this life, but there's a chance Ahmad Deedat is in heaven.
SEAN: If you were starting again in ministry in today's culture, would you do debates?
JOSH: I'm not totally sure. Debates have certainly lost some of their pizazz and some of their influence. Thousands of people used to come to each of my debates. But now with the Internet, they're much more common and accessible. One reason I might do debates, though, is that they forced me to study and master a subject. I probably spent 300 hours in preparation for a debate. I knew I could use the material the rest of my life in talks, books, and future debates. At times, some of the leading scholars in the world helped me prepare. Those times were some of the best experiences of my life.

Teeth chattering April was the coldest for almost a quarter of a century, according to weather experts.
Research by weather service Met Eireann has shown that all temperatures for the fourth month of the year were below normal averages.
And people in parts of the north and west of the country, including the north midlands, shivered in the cold snap as temperatures there were at least 1.5C below average during the 30 days.
Weather stations at Mullingar in Co Westmeath, Sherkin Island in Co Cork and in some coastal areas in the north and west were the coldest they have been in 24 years.
Knock in Co Mayo also reported that it had its coldest April since 2001.
Met Eireann said that they noticed the freeze at the start of the month, with air temperatures hitting -5.6C at Dublin Airport and -6.6C at Mullingar on April 6.
These were their coldest April temperatures since the stations opened in 1942 and 1950.
The hottest time of the entire month was on April 23, when the mercury hit 18.7C at Fermoy in Co Cork.
But Gurteen in Co Sligo hit an absolute low of -11.4C at on April 6.
Met Eireann spokesman Harm Luijkx said: "We had easterly wind persisting for a long period.
"Those easterly winds brought cold air from parts of Europe and Russia where it was still very cold from the winter.
"They were transported to Ireland and that cold persisted for much of March and early April as well.
"It doesn't really get that warm in Ireland in April anyway – overall there's not much of an improvement in temperatures, it's only very gradual over the spring."
And he said that we could look forward to a much warmer May, although he admitted it will be a slow start.
Mr Luijkx said: "It wouldn't be as cold as it was of course – it's coming towards summer and the cold air from the east is gone.
"But over the bank holiday weekend it will be relatively cold, with temperatures in the low teens."
Met Eireann also revealed that the month was also unusually wet and windy, with Claremorris in Co Mayo seeing its wettest April in 22 years.
Valentia Observatory in Co Kerry saw 37.4mm of rainfall on April 17 alone - its highest daily fall since 2003.
Gusts and gales also battered the country throughout, with the mean monthly speeds of 12.9 knots and 12.7 knots and Dublin and Cork Airports the highest since 1950 and 1985 at those stations.
Dublin Airport's highest April gust of 54 knots, or 100 kmh, on the 17th was its highest during April since 1990.

Hi here we are September 1st already, where has the time gone?
Soon it will be time for Christmas cards.
Here is my creation for the A Bit More Time to Craft digital paper
site where I am on the Design Team.
The background paper is one of the digital papers from
A Bit More Time to Craft from the Sepia Embossing pack. I absolutely
LOVE the way this paper looks like it has so much texture.
I stamped the dragonflies using the Unity stamp from the
Let Your Wishes Fly set. This is a fabulous set it has several sentiments stamps in it too. I cut the stamp out using a Gina Marie die, once around the stamp then using the larger one from the darker brown. I also added a corner that I cut using one of the My Little Paper World die from the corner set.
Well, that's it, thanks for stopping by.

I'm liking the greenish choice.ReplyDelete
I like the blue. It makes the black seem deep, and the circles makes me think of bubbles. Those cheerful colors, and all the palm trees... makes me think: Vacation!ReplyDelete
Yes, definitely the blue or the green. The blue was my immediate choice... made the colours sparkle and reminded me of blue skies and sea. But then, I like the contrast of the green and the way it brings out the purple. Depends on whether you want this round to integrate what you've done already or introduce something new. Maybe it's time to sit back and wait for the next set of instructions... It's looking good so far.ReplyDelete
Wow, love the colors. Blue or green would be my choice, but everyone looks super. Great job.ReplyDelete
I love the blue!ReplyDelete
I vote for the blue!ReplyDelete
Me too...Blue or green!ReplyDelete
green for me.... Not sure why, it just screamed at me xReplyDelete
Hmm - I like the pink, the blue or the green. Those colors to me bring out the colors in the parts you have already sewn. The pink might limit the use of the quilt though so I'm agreeing with the others on blue or green! : ) JuneReplyDelete
Really liking the blue, just makes everything else pop! Looking good what every color you decide to go with.ReplyDelete

NEW YORK — NBA referees are prepared to be locked out for the start of the season after negotiations with the league on a new contract broke down this week when David Stern ended the latest bargaining session.
No further talks are scheduled — and when they do resume, it'll be without the commissioner.
Referees spokesman Lamell McMorris accused Stern of acting childish and not negotiating in good faith, so Stern removed himself from the process.
Stern said Thursday he told McMorris that, "In fact if it was going to get personal — which apparently he's decided to make it by calling news media and leveling a series of inaccurate allegations — that I would absent myself from the negotiations, which I have."
"Hopefully we'll make a deal with the referees, or we won't, but it won't be on the basis of personality, it'll be on the basis of economics," Stern added.
The league's contract with its referees expired on Sept. 1, and McMorris said the sides have basically agreed on salary issues for a new two-year deal. He said the league wanted to freeze salaries for the first year with a 1 percent increase in year two.
The officials were willing to go along with that, McMorris said, because of the economic difficulties the league is facing, but the NBA was still asking for significant reductions in the referees' budget.
"We've laid $2.5 million back on the table," McMorris said. "Some things we have to be able to go back to our group and to say that we collectively bargained in good faith. Our goal is not to take all the hits, we can't do that."
ESPN.com first reported that talks ended after Stern abruptly halted Tuesday's session at league headquarters. Stern said the officials reneged on something previously agreed upon, but McMorris was critical of the way the commissioner handled things.
"The problem is, David Stern does not negotiate. He tells you what's going to happen and then when you don't do it, and do something differently, he whines and acts like a child," McMorris said. "That's not how you negotiate. Not with adults."
Stern said the league would be well represented even without him, but didn't leave much hope that a resolution would come soon.
"On the basis of the last series of proposals, it doesn't appear that there's any point at this time to further negotiations, but obviously it still remains our goal to start this season with our existing referees working," Stern said.
The NBA released a statement later Thursday criticizing the referees union for its attacks through the media, and said the referees backed out of previously agreed upon proposals involving retirement benefits at Tuesday's meeting.
"Then, after we offered additional economic movement in order to progress toward a deal, the NBRA refused to make any additional concessions," NBA general counsel and lead negotiator Rick Buchanan said. "At this point, and after several months of negotiations, all the union has offered to us is minimal concessions that are neither consistent with economic reality nor with the information it is currently distributing to the media."
Referees are due to open their training camp on Sept. 20, and the league's first preseason game is scheduled for Oct. 1 at Utah. Without a deal soon, the NBA will begin the season with replacement officials for the first time since 1995.
The league is seeking cuts in areas such as the referees' benefits, travel budget and their per diems, which Stern said would "bring their numbers in line with other league employees."
McMorris feels there is more to it, with the league possibly trying to rid itself of older referees or perhaps send a strong message to the players, whose collective bargaining agreement with the NBA expires after the 2011 season.
He also said the NBA gave a combined $100,000 in raises, which Stern could not confirm, to the three men who were hired to oversee the referees operations department in the league office following the betting scandal involving former official Tim Donaghy.
Already, the referees will miss next week's two-day seminar with league coaches, and McMorris said the officials will meet again sometime after that.
Officials from the NBA Development League could end up calling NBA games as the league scrambles for replacements. Stern denied McMorris' charge that backup refs were being called even before Tuesday's meeting ended, while McMorris said the league had even called a referee it fired three years ago to see if he would be available.
Even with Stern not involved, McMorris said his side won't come to New York for further talks.
"If the league wants to start up talks again, our door is open, so we'd gladly look forward to meeting them in Washington D.C. for the next meeting," McMorris said. "You can't be disrespectful and childlike and ask us, when you're already cutting our wages and expenses, to use our hard-earned money to come and you're kicking us out of meetings."

Welcome to Finchley Manor Racketball
Our Racketball Section goes from strength to strength... Over the past few years this sport has increased in popularity to the point where we have regular Ladder Leagues, Club Racketball Social Evenings and our own Finchley Manor Annual Racketball Tournament.
Club Night Saturday from 6.45pm to 9.00pm
Saturday 6.45 - 9pm for RACKETBALL ONLY
All the club nights are run on a similar format with an organiser co-ordinating rotation of players.
The Squash Player magazine wrote that 'your club needs a club night to ensure that it is not a mere facility'. Our club night welcomes new players to a relaxed social atmosphere where they can play with others of all abilities, or just watch. Short games are played and the fee for the evening is only £2.50. The increasing popularity of club night has meant that we need an organiser each night to allocate the players to games. We now have about 25 organisers, who are given booking concessions, and each organise about once every 5 months. Judy Williams has filled in a sheet to help organisers record how they pair the players up and ensure a mix of ability on the courts. The bar is open for the evening.

Our popular Racketball Social Evenings are a great way to enjoy a game and get some hints, tips and advice from our coaches in an informal, relaxed and fun environment.

The cost is £3 for play which includes a 'Meet the Coaches' session.
Racketball Socials usually run on a Tuesday evening, starting at 6:45pm and we normally run them bi-monthly. Keep an eye on the Social Pages for details of the next Social.
Finchley Manor Racketball Ladder Leagues & Competitive Racketball
Our Racketball Ladder Leagues run approximately every six weeks. Leagues consist of 5 or 4 players depending on the number of participants. The leagues are friendly and fun, and open to players of all ages and abilities.

to view printable version of module information.
Our new Inventory & Purchasing module can help you track and manage your inventory from the generation of purchase orders through the relief of inventory and reporting on its usage.
You can maintain your mill pricing and track price changes by date (even future ones). The customized purchase orders you generate can link to the price in effect at the time of shipment.
Now, that you've ordered the steel, receiving it should be simple, right? Many systems force you to wait until you actually receive the shipment before you can enter it into the system. This can cause costly delays while you wait for someone to generate inventory tags as the truck waits to be unloaded. Our system allows you to electronically download the Bill of Lading (including the list of each bundle on the incoming truck) AND mill heat information BEFORE you receive the steel—in most cases as soon as the truck leaves the steel mill. This means you can have tags and a checklist waiting when the truck arrives.
Tracking your inventory usage can be as easy as scanning a barcode on the inventory tag and on the production tag as the operator produces them. This will not only mark each stock bundle as consumed, but also make the appropriate mill heat assignment to the releases being produced.
The Inventory module also gives you the information you need to better gauge your fab shop's productivity. You can begin to see production rates per machine, rates per operator, crane delays, and even production rates per bend type. You can then make informed decisions on equipment purchases and operator training.
We designed this module to be able to relate multiple vendor invoices to a single receipt. For example, steel mill invoice, freight invoice, and even coating charges. You can mark these as "Approved", reconciling them to the Purchase Order, before transferring them as an Accounts Payable transactions to your accounting system.

The RCEP is the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership sponsored by China to create an Asian sphere of interest separate from the US dominated TPPA. We can view it as an enlarged BRICS for Southern Asia but which includes South Korea and Japan, the other regional imperialist power, as well as Australia and New Zealand (see graph above).
Is it an instrument of Chinese imperialism? Yes, but Japan and South Korea are trying to act as stalking horses for US imperialism in inserting corporate investor provisions into the RCEP.
NZ has already capitulated to the TPPA as a semi-colony of the US. Now the NZ ruling class wants to join the RCEP. Like the TPPA we need to add the RCEP to the list of imperialist attacks on NZ economic sovereignty and fight to reject it as a tool of Chinese corporate dominance of the region. We need to take our cue from India the largest semi-colony in the region that is already subordinated to China in the BRICS.
India is holding the line against imperialism rejecting the role of Corporates dominating national sovereignty. If the 'investor protection' rules are included then big pharma will attempt to stop India being the main provider of generic drugs eating into their profits.
So we have here an insight into the relative roles of China and India in the world economy. Obama has just visited India to promote a 'strategic partnership' with the US. So India as a oppressed country is increasingly subject to rival pressures from the two big imperialist blocs to plunder its resources and extract superprofits.
We can see this reflected in the politics of the ruling Modi Government which is using rabid Hindutva nationalism to divide and rule the masses. As we argued in our last issue the pressure to solve the crisis of imperialism at the expense of the semi-colonies is transmitted downwards by the national bourgeoisies onto the working people.
One of the main demands of the labor movement in all the countries subjected to TPPA and RCEP type 'partnerships' must be the rejection of all such agreements as tools of either, or both, US and Chinese imperialism, and a determination to mobilise and coordinate international strike action to stop them!
For a Socialist United States of the Asia-Pacific!

The T-Mobile G1 event was definitely a game changer, to how the mobile phone and the Internet have merged to bring us innovative solutions in one device, the kind that can provide Email, Maps, Calendar, instant messaging, Contacts, Search engine and Media player, all together in one strong Open Source platform that will be able to compete those lavish smartphone handsets, with a fair and affordable price. As the clock pointed at 10:30 AM (East time), a group of distinguish representatives from companies like Deutsche Telecom, T-Mobile, HTC and Google were gathered on one small New York stage, to announce the long-awaited HTC Dream, powered with Google's Android operating system, to be available in T-Mobile stores and dealers on October 27th, for merely $179, subjunctive to a two year contract – $25/month deal, including unlimited internet access plus a certain amount of messaging package, or $35/month deal with unlimited internet access and unlimited messages to send.
The new phone, also known as the G1, is equipped with a quadband GSM HSDPA 1700/2100, a stunning flip-out 3-inch 320 x 480 HVGA touchscreen, a full QWERTY keyboard to make it easier when you type-in a web address or any other online form, a 3.2MP camera with auto focus, a microSD card extension (1GB microSD card included, supports up to 8GB card), GPS navigation system, Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity. The continuous collaboration with Mountain View brings a smooth multitasking UI, packed with many Google apps, such as Gmail, GTalk IM, Google Maps, digital compass, integrated Traffic view / Street View, Google calender and last but not least, Google's search engine, assimilated inside the built-in browser. In addition, you get more applications pre-loaded, like Android Market, which is equivalent to Apple's App Store, Amazon's MP3 store, allowing to download from 6 million DRM-free tracks (starting at 89 cents), YouTube and many other third-party goodies onboard. The unit comes with a designated Search Button that lets you work across the entire interface and search any application you want. Thus, you can look for your friends in the contact list or search for a special occasion within your calender, etc. Regretfully, it doesn't support the standard 3.5mm headphone jack, nor A2DP stereo Bluetooth, but you can expect to see them in future versions. Sized at 4.60 x 2.16 x 0.62, the G1's battery provides up to 5 hours of speech or 130 hours in standby mode and potential buyers will be able to choose between black, white or brown flavors, when the phone goes live, in early November.

I am not so sure how many of my reader have ever tried the Roasted Garlic, I have and this is one addictive food accessory, lol. taste good, and keep your immune system strong. I always have this when I feel that I might catch cold or fever. And believe me, I am seldom sick. it's very yummy too...
Sago upma, a very nice breakfast recipe. It is very healthy too.
Tamarind rice (puliyodharai), been a long time since I had this. A simple and quite yummy rice preparation, quite popular in the Southern india.
A very healthy, tasty and filling recipe, and an all time favorite, Aloo methi..
Ridgegourd curry, lemme assure you, this particular vegetable takes a very special skill to turn to something nice. But, if you know how too cook a good ridge gourd curry, it will taste excellent. And it sure taste the mettle of a chef :-) This , here, is a very nice recipe...
Chivda, such a delight to have as an in-between-meals Snack or while working generally. Haldiram's minted Millions out of it, untill somebody posted the recipe her. Check out this amazing Chivda recipe, fairly easy too.
Stew fried Tofu, a vegetarian Chinese dish from a blogger far from here... Bachelors fresh out of home, specially MS students and young IT freshers, who start cooking at a bachelor pad find Tofu in the supermarkets and often confuse it with paneer. Well, At least a friedn did, lol so I made it up for all like him. Anyway Tofu is not paneer. Is it make from Soy??? Google it..
Vankaaya kura, a brinjal curry. Was it Akbar who said brinjal was the king of vegetables? BTW, is there a difference between Egg plant and brinjal? This curry was prepared with egg plant. back home we get the deep purple large Brinjals that makes great vadas or pakoras, and smaller roundish variety is I guess the egg plant. I mean if there were a difference. We also get this long and thin, like fingers, Brinjals which make great Stirr fried dish with Peanuts, my all time favorite...
Lots of shrimps today ;-), have I mentioned how much I love Shrimps, shrimps pakodas, and shrimps stir fried with Mint, or pudina leaves, just heaven. Check out this Shrimp curry in spicy onion tomato
Vanilla Flavored Shrimps?? Now this is what I call creativity. And a great appetizer, it is. HAve with wine says the blogger...

Chocolate chip crumble !! The kind of recipes that gives me a tinge of envy... I am a bad baker.. lol.
The blogger wrote about this dish Acar, "Acar is a Malaysian spicy pickled crunchy salad that is commonly served as condiment or relish to be eaten with a main course. It is sort of a must have item in the food served in Indian & Malay weddings in Malaysia."
Soya Granules Curry kind of reminds me of Kheema. The vegetarian's non veg replacement.

"But the belief that Canada is a liberal utopia holds only if you have no concept of Canadian history and little knowledge of current events, and only if you walk through its cities and towns without speaking to anyone who isn't white, middle class or male." "The idea that Canada is a safe space is a lie — and an easy one to catch for anyone who has actually lived here as part of a minority group and watched how the country chooses to forget about you."

The illusion that Canada is a liberal utopia

A wife petitioned for dissolution of marriage on the ground of her husband's repeated act of adultery; and, on the hearing, tendered as the only evidence of adultery a certified copy of an entry in the Register of Births in Brisbane, being a record of the birth of an illegitimate child of the husband registered by him.It was held by A'Beckett J that 'there being no reasonable doubt as to identity, and no circumstances of suspicion, the entry might be accepted as sufficient proof of adultery'.
The judgment states
Alice May Emma Wright petitioned for dissolution of her marriage with Maxwell Parker Wright, upon the ground of adultery in the conjugal residence, and of a repeated act of adultery. In support of the second ground, the petitioner tendered as the only evidence a certificate of the Registrar-General, Brisbane, being a copy of an entry of the birth, on 20th January, 1910, of an illegitimate child, the father of whom was described as Maxwell Parker Wright, the person who registered the birth.
In this case the wife sought divorce on the ground of her husband's adultery, on the first occasion with a woman in the conjugal residence, and afterwards with another woman in Queensland. As to the first adultery I have no evidence but that of the wife of admissions made to her by the husband and by the woman. As to the second, I have nothing but a certified copy of an entry in the Register of Births in Brisbane, which shows that a person, describing himself and his other children in such a way as unmistakably to identify him as the husband of the petitioner, registered the birth of an illegitimate child born in Queensland, of which he described himself as the father. I doubted whether I could act upon this evidence alone, although I did not suspect collusion or any untruth in the statements made in the registration. The only way in which the registration would be evidence would be as an admission of adultery by the husband. It would have been possible for someone to have impersonated the bus- band in registering the birth. I think that the Court should not accept meagre evidence or doubtful ad missions where direct evidence is easily available. It was pointed out that in this case the procuring of direct evidence would certainly be costly, and prob ably be difficult, and that if I were satisfied that the admission was genuine I was at liberty to act upon it. Passing over the possibility of impersonation as too remote to cause doubt, an admission made by a father in registering a birth is made under serious sanctions. Untruth in the declaration is punishable by imprisonment. The declaration is made in the performance of a statutory obligation.
The other facts before me lead to no suspicion. The husband was personally served, and according to the affidavits on which leave to proceed was given, virtually admitted the case against him. The wife was enabled to obtain the copy certificate by an anonymous letter, unobjectionable in its tone and definite in its information, from someone signing her self her friend. Feeling no doubt as to the facts, I have evidence which I may accept as sufficient to prove them. I therefore grant the order nisi, on the ground of a repeated act of adultery, with costs against the respondent, and I give the petitioner the custody of the children of the marriage

KIKO is fast becoming one of my favourite makeup brands. Originally I discovered KIKO when I was in London a few years ago and stumbled into one of the (back then) few KIKO stores around. Now they're popping up all over the place! And thank goodness too. Last weekend me and the boyfriend to do a few jobs in town, which inevitably meant some spontaneous purchases too. I wasn't planning on treating myself to so many makeup bits, but when I spotted the 6 items for the price of 3 promotion I was sold. All you had to do was download the KIKO app and present your personalised QR code at the till. So here's what I picked up.
After months of really not being fussed by wearing eyeshadow, I'm now back into it big time. KIKO have a HUGE range of eyeshadows, in different shades and formulas. I already own some of their eyeshadow sticks, so I thought it was time to try some of their powder eyeshadows. I picked up 4 High Pigment Wet and Dry Eyeshadows. These are a genius design as they already come magnetically attached to individual pans, making taking them out and places them in a palette super easy and mess free! My poor boyfriend did get bored of me swatching endless shades on my hand to try and make a decision on which shades to buy. In the end I went for 04, a gorgeous metallic rosy taupe colour, I've left this in an individual pan for now but may switch it out for travelling etc. I also picked up 16, a stunning pink toned gold shade which reminds me a bit of MAC's Naked Lunch, 06 a matte taupe shade, and 81 a matte 'antique brass' as described on the KIKO website. It's a cool toned brown that's perfect for adding depth to your eyeshadow look! Each of the eyeshadows came in at £6.90 each. I'm yet to try the eyeshadows wet, although I'm sure the metallic shades will be even more shiny and stunning when I do.
As I said the magnetic design of the eyeshadows meant I could buy a 3 pan eyeshadow palette at £5.90 and immediately transfer three of the shadows in really quickly. The palette is super travel friendly and has a good quality mirror inside, perfect for makeup on the go. After walking round with a handful of eyeshadows, I then stumbled across the lip stand. Again after swatching a few too many lipsticks on my hand I settled for one of the Smart Lipsticks in 902. This is a beautiful coral pink shade, with a tiny bit of shimmer in. The shimmer isn't noticeable when applied on the lips, it just gives a healthy glossy look. I'm a sucker for matte black packaging, so that was a huge plus for this lipstick range, as well as the fact they're only £3.90! What a bargain. I would have picked up most of the range if I had all the money in the world... In total my whole KIKO haul came up just over £18, this was including a 10% discount for using the KIKO app for the first time. I'm definitely going to keep my eyes peeled on that app for any more amazing offers.SaveSaveSaveSaveSaveSave
**Also, I just checked, and KIKO does NOT test on animals! Yay :-)

My Double Helix series with its nine related books usually gets the most airtime, but I've written other science fiction and fantasy novels. Eternal Night started out as a science fiction but turned into a post-apocalyptic fantasy. (I'm still not entirely sure how it happened.)
The cover you see today on Eternal Night is actually its third cover. The first two covers didn't seem to get much traction with the urban fantasy / dystopian crowd, and I'm hopeful that this one will do better.
The person on the cover is Ashra, the icrathari queen. She and her vampire army rule over an 18th century domed city trapped in eternal night. Of course, nothing is quite what it seems, and when you reach the end of this book, you won't see vampires the same way ever again. Eternal Night won the Royal Palm Literary Award for best fantasy, and I invite you to check it out.

Oh hohohoho~
I...I just had to do a little chibi of Suzaku! He's my favorite of Seimei's twelve spirit summons~ You'd think I would adore Guren too because he's a
redhead dork too but.... I dun know, Suzaku is just so much more fun for some reason and he's voiced by Suzumura Kenichi in the anime.
THIS SERIES NEEDS SO MUCH MORE FANDOM!! D< Go read the novels or go watch the freaking anime you floppy-wanded-dementor-buggerers bunch of lazy people! Jeezums!
----On another note----
Finally! I've drawn something theO appropriate again! XDDDD Nonono, I really just haven't had much time to draw things for my own pleasure as of late. I know, I know! You all are like: "Would you quit using this excuse? It's getting really old!" I can't help it if my scanner broke and I've been caught up in school work! D= Cross your fingers, livers, intestines, toes, spinal cords, or whatever you feel like in hopes that I'll be able to get some more official posts up soon.
Dedicating this to my not-so-long-lost-and-just-found-again friend Casey! Hehe~ Reminds you of the chibi comment spams in Tegaki E ne~?
I wanna go draw some SuzakuXTenki stuffs now~!♥♥♥♥

Gunther Russbacher was a CIA operative. Rayelan was a lecturer and investigator who worked with Barbara Honegger, the author of the first book on the October Surprise scandal. When Gunther and Rayelan married in 1989, the Bush Administration panicked. As a result, Gunther became the most famous political prisoner of the George H.W. Bush administration. Russbacher was the pilot who flew Bush back from the negotiations in Paris that finalized the October Surprise.
Rayelan was an investigator who was working to expose the October Surprise!
From 1989 to late 1996, when he disappeared, Gunther spent all but 9 months of their marriage in prison! During that time, there were numerous attempts to kill both of them. Their lawyer and friend Paul Wilcher WAS murdered! Gunther's sons were beaten and jailed, he was told they would be gang raped if he talked.
Rayelan was charged with trespassing on a military base and faced prison. To keep her out of prison, where he was told she would be murdered, Gunther pled guilty!
The story of what they went through is compelling! They loved each other and they fought to stay together. Only the CIA and Mind Control separated them! To understand what they went through, please read "Journey Into Hell" and "The Amazing Rayelan Allan". These two articles are short and give a concise overview of the first two years of their marriage. Little has been written about either of them since that time! The article, "Gunther Russbacher, Prisoner of the New World Order" was the last article written about them. Their story ends in late 1996 with Gunther's disappearance. He re-appeared in early 1997, with a new wife and NO memory of every being married to Rayelan.

immobilized carbon nanofibers; a novel structured catalyst support
Joline Roemers-van Beek is a PhD Student in the research group Catalytic Processes and Materials, her supervisor is professor Leon Lefferts from the faculty of Science and Technology
The work in this thesis explores a novel catalyst support design. In this design a macro-porous basis is used to immobilize a layer of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) agglomerates with the possible addition of a grown CNF binder layer. The synthesis of this grown CNF binder layer poses additional fundamental questions on CNF growth. The produced catalyst support is tested for activity and selectivity in a fast heterogeneous reaction, in this case nitrite hydrogenation in liquid phase.
In Chapter 2 fundamental questions on the initiation of CNF growth on polycrystalline nickel are explored. The CNF growth is slowed down by using very low partial pressures of ethylene, aiming to observe the initiation. These experiments were performed under atmospheric pressure with extremely diluted ethylene (50 Pa), coupled to ex-situ characterization in high-resolution Scanning Electron Microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Additionally, in-situ experiments were conducted under low pressure conditions in an Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM) introducing very low quantities of ethylene in the chamber.
For reduced samples, atmospheric experiments showed very little CNFs and ESEM experiments showed even no CNFs at all. This is attributed to diffusion of C to the bulk of the Ni-foam preventing Ni3C formation as a precursor of Ni nanoparticles, the CNF growth catalyst particles. CNF growth was significant on oxidized samples, but clearly slowed down by using extremely low ethylene pressure. It is shown that an isolating layer of unreduced NiO is needed between the Ni bulk and the Ni nanoparticles resulting from gradual reduction of the NiO layer, to enable CNF growth. This isolating NiO layer is hypothesized to prevent C diffusion to the bulk and/or sintering of the Ni nanoparticles with the polycrystalline nickel in the foam. At present time distinguishing between these two hypotheses is impossible.
In Chapter 3 a catalyst support structure is produced by immobilizing a layer of CNF agglomerates on a stainless steel filter through filtration. By optimizing various parameters (e.g. CNF particle size, amount of CNFs used, pressure drop used) an immobilized CNF layer, stable at relatively low shear force flows (<0.18 m/s), is produced. The immobilized CNF layer can be removed by increasing the flow rate further, this enables selective removal of the catalyst particles after deactivation.
Removal of the CNF agglomerates takes place in pieces of the entire layer. This shows that the attachment of the entire layer to the surface of the stainless steel filter determines the stability of the CNF layer. Attachment between the CNF aggregates is apparently stronger than attachment to the filter. Different ways to increase attachment of the immobilized CNF layer to the stainless steel filter are attempted, e.g. increased pressure drop, densification, an additional binder layer. It is shown that both surface roughness of the filter on micro-scale and penetration of CNF agglomerates in the pore mouths of the stainless steel filter determine the stability of the CNF layer.
In Chapter 4, a Pd-loaded, immobilized CNF agglomerates layer on a stainless steel filter is tested for catalytic hydrogenation of nitrite. Activity and selectivity in nitrite hydrogenation is studied by varying several parameters, e.g. CNF particle size, CNF particles loading, flow regime. Flowing a H2 saturated nitrite solution through the Pd-CNF layer results in higher reaction rates compared to flowing over the layer. This demonstrates that flow-over mode is subject to mass transfer limitations due to the relatively long diffusion distance in the Pd-CNF layer, compared to flow-through mode. Varying the CNF particle size shows external diffusion limitations at the surface of the individual CNF agglomerates dominate in flow-through mode.
In Chapter 5 recommendations are made for future work, among others a reactor design using immobilized CNFs is proposed.

I recently stumbled upon a recipe for homemade watercolors. Now, I don't have any children in my house, but I do have a nephew and the opportunity to make things for him that are non-toxic is something that I cannot pass up. I found the idea at Meet the Dubiens – she made rainbow watercolors that are beautiful! I didn't have rainbow gel colors, so I just used what I had. Apparently what I had was the Wilton bland flower collection: golden yellow, rose petal, violet, cornflower blue, leaf green, and forest green.
I bought the containers at the Dollar General for $2.00. The lids snap on – they are a little big for the amount the recipe makes, but it's no big deal. They worked fine! Each color calls for: 2 tablespoons baking soda, 1 tablespoon corn starch, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon lite corn syrup. I mixed them all in a small bowl.
I had to use a little more vinegar than the recipe called for. The first color I made was purple and I accidentally left out part of the corn starch. It was super thin and would never have dried! I realized it quickly, washed it down the drain, and started over. I wish I could adequately explain the correct consistency – it starts to take a solid shape when you let it set, but it turns back liquid when you stir it around. It's fun. 🙂
Notice it almost hangs off of the fork. It will still easily pour into your containers. It's almost fun to play with it like this! As far as the amount of gel food coloring to use, it depends on how dark you want your colors. Remember, they are watercolors so they will appear muted on paper!
When I poured them into their containers, the color started to "separate" as they dried. I made my first three colors and decided to wait a while before I started again. I gave them time to dry and be sure it wasn't messed up. Obviously, the separation freaked me out a bit.
Once dried, they still appear separated, but I don't think it's going to affect them much. After the first three colors dried, I was more comfortable finishing up the project.
I threw together 5 more colors and they are now drying on my kitchen cabinet. The first three colors are completely dry (after about 48 hours) and I can try them out anytime I want!
Notice on the far right, the blue almost looks powdery. That is completely dried out. I will post some pictures when I get around to painting them. In the meantime, I am allowing my other colors to dry and trying to decide what to paint!

What if you just need someone to believe in you?
All those plans, all those dreams.
They told you to find something you could actually do. They gave you all kinds of suggestions that sent the clear message they somehow knew you better than you.
They smiled to themselves, or even laughed.
But more than anything else, what they did was make you feel like there was something the matter with you.
Something wrong, something "off".
Why did you move in those directions? Why did you lean towards those things?
It's no wonder their voice is the first one you hear when you think about doing something for yourself, when you go back to those dreams, those plans, those castles in the clouds that you've learned no one will ever understand like you do.
But what if someone did? What if the only thing missing is someone to believe in you?
What if the reason you're struggling so hard to find someone is because you're looking for someone to complete you, without even realizing that's what you're doing?
Could it be you just want someone to believe in you? To remind you of who you are, and what you can do? To be the wind beneath your wings?
What if you could meet that need, find someone to believe in you, so that he could be who he's always been...a mere human.
When we put him up so high on a pedestal with all the expectations we have of him, it's no wonder he simply can't measure up. He feels pressured, scared, and doesn't know what to do with this amazing woman in front of him who forgets her own power in the presence of him and defers to him instead of to her own inner wisdom.
To him it just feels like unbearable pressure.
And what if that person you were looking for to believe in you was the same one looking back at you in the mirror? What if this is really about you?
Take everything you think this is about, take everything you've ever been told, take all those rules you've been led to believe you have to follow, and allow yourself to finally hear what you know in your heart of hearts to be the truth.
Love doesn't require you to unlock a secret code.
Love could never withhold itself from you simply because you don't know some hidden rule.
Love could never be so complicated that it requires so much more than you already have within you.
You know this! Yes, oh how you do.
The first step to bringing the only kind of love you ever want – the real kind - closer to you, is trusting that part of you that knows what you've never been allowed to know.
It's because you feel everything you do.
It's because you care so deeply, you love with abandon, you refuse to settle for what you know you should never have to. This is the part of you that makes you so beautifully and uniquely you!
It's not your fault you've done everything you have, you've tried everything you could.
It's time to come back to you.
Beautiful, radiant, confident, you. The real, authentic you like you've never known yourself before.
The one he's been waiting for. The one he's been looking for. The one he can't resist.
Believe in you and he sees you. Believe in you, and he recognizes you.
It's a shift you can finally feel in control of. You create it! And then just watch and see what shows up. The kind of love you've been waiting for. The kind that knows and sees and adores YOU! Unlike anything you ever thought it could be.
What do you think? What difference would this make in your life? Share your story with us in the comments!

Dr. Ratcliffe was the first cardiac surgeon to use realistic mathematical models to evaluate the efficacy of novel surgical procedures for the treatment of heart failure and ischemic heart disease. One evaluation was of the Myocor Myosplint, a device designed to change left ventricular (LV) shape and reduce heart wall stress. Using a mathematical model, Dr. Ratcliffe found that Myosplint should be much more effective than partial ventriculectomy as a surgical therapy for patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and end-stage congestive heart failure. Dr. Ratcliffe also mathematically analyzed surgical anterior ventricular restoration (SAVER), another surgical treatment for heart failure, and determined the circumstances under which it can be used most effectively. These studies will help surgeons develop surgical remodeling procedures that might decrease LV wall stress and improve LV function in heart failure patients. Dr. Ratcliffe continues to model and evaluate other novel cardiac surgical procedures.

Companies retain good leaders when they invest in development for them.
As many companies have known for a while, one of the keys to retaining top talent is by showing them they are an investment the company cares about. That means offering them development and training opportunities, something that benefits both the employee and the company.
In its 2015 Global Leadership Forecast, Development Dimensions International studied the most effective leadership development strategies of companies across the globe. They found that leaders whose companies invest in their development are more engaged in their jobs, pursue opportunities to develop their employees, and show intent to remain at the organization long-term. DDI also indicated that helping leaders understand their career paths and giving them opportunities to provide feedback to their seniors about the organization are the most effective factors in development programs. For frontline leaders – those at the lower leadership levels in a company's hierarchy – DDI found that engagement is heavily influenced by the possibility to advance upward. On the other hand, higher-level leaders reported more engagement when they felt their manager was effective at developing them. This suggests that, although fewer advancement opportunities are available at higher levels, the development focus and their managers' actions continue to shape engagement for mid- through senior-level leaders.
In order to better target and strengthen their leadership development programs, organizations should start by focusing on providing their leaders a clear career path and making sure they are given opportunities to give feedback to their superiors. Then, they should make it their focus to provide up-to-date development plans, ensure a work-life balance, and make available information about the competencies and skills needed for success. On this last point, companies should evaluate the specificity of their competency models and the outputs of associated development programs to make sure they provide the level of precision leaders are seeking.
This is where TMC and the Cultural Navigator come in. TMC offers learning and development programs that can be customized to the needs and goals of any organization, as well as a portfolio of assessments that companies can use to help their employees gain awareness of their work-style preferences, which in turn helps them communicate and collaborate with others. In addition, the Cultural Navigator online learning platform hosts a plethora of activities on a number of subjects relevant to leadership development, including cultural competence, managing, negotiating and team building.
Companies retain good leaders when they invest in development for them. That means showing leaders they care about their advancement, targeting their development initiatives at specific points in their careers, and tailoring development programs to leaders' individual career ambitions.
"The Doing Business Internationally program should be required for all! The skills are essential!"

Real Customer Reviews
2 Items
- Great in certain areas, comfort not so great
Likes: Deflates quickly, rolls quickly, packs rather small. I have tried tons of pads. 30 wide is for sure the best as far as width, but no more comfortable than other pads. Dump valve is amazing.
Dislikes: Lack of comfort, heavy, foot pump doesn't exactly air up pad in a few pumps, integrated pillow is just okay. Going back to less expensive, old, yellow foam pad.
- Wonderfully comfortable, and wide enough to sleep on your side, bend your legs, etc.
Likes: Good support, and high enough to eliminate contact with the ground. I love the width! The built in pump works, and it collapses easily. The fabric surface is not so slick that you constantly slide off. And it's quiet.
Dislikes: The "pillow" is a little bit of a nuisance. Not big enough to really be a pillow, so it sort of shortens the working length of the pad. For me this is not an issue, for a taller person it could be.

I love early morning too. I'm not a morning person though, so I like the quiet by myself. Creaky floors would be so charming. It's like a house talking to you. Ours are brick. I'm so behind on visits! Thanks for coming to look for me! I always love seeing your wonderful euro style!
