5 Recommended Onsen From Osaka Or Kyoto For A Day Trip!
If you come to Osaka or Kyoto, why not explore some onsen (hot spring) towns? Here are five spots you can check out in one day by bus or shinkansen from Osaka or Kyoto.
Written by Sawada Tomomi
Refresh Yourself at Elegant Onsen Towns
If you want to reinvigorate yourself after sightseeing in Kyoto and Osaka, we have good news. Osaka and Kyoto are surrounded by places where you can enjoy onsens, nature and delicious food. Let's look at popular onsen towns that you can easily visit from Osaka and Kyoto by Shinkansen or bus.
1. Kinosaki Onsen and Its Long History (Hyogo)
Stroll About In A Yukata While Visiting Kinosaki Onsen, Hyogo
Kinosaki Onsen has more than 1300 years of history, and is located in Toyooka City in Hyogo. The Otani River runs through this onsen town, and its banks are lined with willow trees and old wooden buildings, giving it a very elegant air. We recommend that you spend your time at Kinosaki Onsen in a yukata and geta, and you will often see tourists in yukata walking around town. You can enjoy various onsens as you go sightseeing in traditional Japanese garb.
From Osaka
The JR Limited Express is the fastest way to get to Kinosaki. Take the Konotori train from Shin-Osaka Station, bound for Kinosaki Onsen Station (two hours and 50 minutes, 5800 yen). The town is ten minutes' walk from the station. You can also take the highway bus from Osaka Station or Shin-Osaka Station (up to three hours, starting at 3000 yen). If you're OK with cramped quarters, it might be good to save money via the bus.
From Kyoto
From Kyoto Station, take the JR Limited Express Kinosaki bound for Kinosaki Onsen Station (two hours and 30 minutes, 5040 yen). There are almost no buses linking Kyoto with Kinosaki Onsen, so if you want to take a bus to save money, head to Osaka to catch one there.

2. Arima Onsen, One of Japan's Oldest (Hyogo)
Accessing Arima Onsen, Japan's Oldest Hot Spring In Hyogo Prefecture
A suburban hot spring resort in Kansai, Arima Onsen in Kobe, Hyogo is one of Japan's three oldest hot springs. Its narrow, tangled hill roads, surrounded by nature views like Mt. Rokko, give it plenty of charm. Arima Onsen is 350-500 meters above sea level, in the Rokko mountain district. There are major inns and hotels in the onsen town, at the foot of the mountains, and among the mountains. You can also use Kin-no-Yu or Gin-no-Yu, outdoor springs, on day trips. Arima Onsen is comprised of springs containing an unusual amount of ingredients, such as carbonic springs, sulfur springs, chlorinated springs, iron springs and radium springs. They are said to help with rheumatism, muscle and joint pain, the chills, high blood pressure and more.
From Osaka
From Osaka Station, take the highway Arima Express bus and get off at Arima Onsen (one hour, 1370 yen). The bus stop is in the middle of Arima Onsen.
From Kyoto
From Kyoto Station, take the highway Arima Express Kyoto bus and get off at Arima Station (one hour and 15 minutes, 1800 yen). You can also take the Hankyu or the Keihan bus, which cost the same and take the same amount of time, so look at the timetables and choose the one that is best for your schedule.
Enjoying Arima Onsen
How about enjoying some traditional parlor entertainment at Arima? The area's geiko perform dances that are appropriate for that season. The geiko cafe Ito has days once or twice a month where you can see them dance for the price of a drink. We recommend this cafe because you can easily check out geiko dancing here.

Located in the Nishimuro district in Wakayama, Shirahama Onsen is said to be one of Japan's three greatest hot springs along with Atami and Beppu. It has a very long history, as it is mentioned in Japan's oldest songbook and oldest historical text. Set against the contrast of the emerald sea and white sand beach, and with many lodging establishments nearby, it is a leading Kansai tourist destination. There are carbonic, chlorine and sulfuric springs at Shirahama Onsen, and the water is said to be good for nerve pain, chills, skin diseases, diabetes and other illnesses. Even today, Shirahama Onsen boasts many directly sourced springs and an abundance of water.
From Osaka
From Shin-Osaka Station, take the JR Limited Express Kuroshio train bound for Shingu, and get off at Shirahama Station (two hours and 15 minutes, 5080 yen). If you want to save money, take a highway Meiko bus from Osaka Station (three hours and 30 minutes, 2980 yen).
From Kyoto
The highway bus is best when coming from Kyoto! Take the Meiko bus from Kyoto Station, which stops at every location in Shirahama, and get off at your destination (four hours, 3400 yen). There are very few buses (only two a day), so be careful.
Enjoying Shirahama Onsen

Shirahama Onsen faces out onto the sea, so you can have a soak while you look out at the ocean. The setting sun over the sea is beautiful and spiritually soothing. Nanki-Shirahama has been long-known for its picturesque scenery, including white sandy beaches and precipitous cliffs.
4. The High-Class Wakura Onsen (Ishikawa)
Wakura Onsen - A Top Class 1200-Year-Old Hot Spring Resort
Wakura Onsen is located in Nanao in Ishikawa. It is said to have a history of more than 1200 years, and is a leading high-class onsen town. In addition to the hot springs, you can see the famous Buddhist temples around the town, enjoy fresh fish caught from Nanao Harbor and the neighboring Tomiyama Harbor, and other things that let you experience the true charm of touring Japan. Wakura Onsen's water has sodium and calcium, and is said to be good for rheumatism and nerve pain. Wakura Onsen faces the sea, and its water has a characteristic high salt content that is characteristic of an ocean onsen.
From Osaka

Wakura Onsen - A Top Class 1200-Year-Old Hot Spring Resort
It's not an exaggeration to say that your meals at your travel destination shape your impression of the trip. Wakura Onsen has lots of delicious food. At Nanao Harbor and Tomiyama Harbor, yellowtail, Kano crab, rockfish, angler and other kinds of seafood can be caught in front of your eyes. Wakura Onsen is a trove of deliciousness, including rice, vegetables, local sake, Noto beef and more. That's why Wakura Onsen has plenty of restaurants. Enjoy the taste of Noto to your heart's content.

5. Relax with Ducks at Kutsurogi-no-Sato Yuraku (Osaka)
An Onsen With Yellow Ducks: Kutsurogi-no-Sato Yuraku, Osaka
We've introduced onsen resorts outside of Kyoto and Osaka, but here we'll introduce an unusual onsen in Osaka: Kutsurogi-no-Sato Yuraku in Suminoe, which uses natural spring waters sourced from within the grounds. You should try the Ahiru Yokocho Matsuri bath, a large vinyl tub with many yellow duck toys floating in it. In Japan, it's typical for children to play with toys in the tub. Enjoy playing with them as though you've become a Japanese child. The water quality is said to be good for nerve pain, muscle pain, joint pain, stiff shoulders, muscle fatigue and more. Also, because there is a lot of water in the hot spring, fresh water is constantly flowing into the tub. Enjoy natural gushing springs in the outdoor bath.
From Osaka
From Osaka Station, walk to Nishi-Umeda Station (up to 10 minutes) and take the Yotsubashi subway line for Suminoe-Koen. Get off at Kitakagaya Station (20 minutes, 280 yen).
From Kyoto
From Kyoto Station, take the JR Kyoto Line Rapid Express bound for Banshu-Ako and get off at Osaka Station, then follow the above instructions.
In Closing
Stretch your legs and head out a short distance from Osaka and Kyoto, and you can go to wonderful onsen resorts. If you're coming all the way to Japan, why not enjoy Japanese bath culture? It's sure to have a great time.

My Guides
Guides I've Contributed To
Why am I not getting a full cup of coffee?I have been pressing the large coffee option, but when the coffee is done brewing my cup is less than halfway filled!
Answer to "Why is water leaking from my device?"The k-cup may not have been punctured correctly because of a clogged needle. The needle can become clogged because of the grounds in the K-cup. A clog would result in the water leaking out of the device instead of through the k-cup. Clean the needle, located at the top of the chamber, with a wet cotton swab and then brew again. If you need some more help take a look at the troubleshooting guide.

A Florida judge is expected to step aside today from the second-degree murder case against George Zimmerman, the man accused of killing unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin, according to a report from the Orlando Sentinel.
On Monday, Zimmerman's lawyer asked Judge Jessica Recksiedler to recuse herself because of a conflict of interest. Recksiedler's husband works with a lawyer who was hired by CNN to do commentary on the case.
If Recksiedler does step aside, the newspaper said one of three criminal court judges in Seminole County would be chosen to replace her.

Games: Commodore 64, Steam, OCTOPTICOM, Geneshift, RimWorld, Unreal Engine, XCOM, Robocraft, Cities: Skylines - Industries
Internet Archive launches repository of 15,000 playable Commodore 64 games
The Commodore 64 becomes the third in-browser collection after the Commodore Amiga and a range of arcade games from LCD pocket to full cabinet were released over the last few years.
The site uses an adaptation of the Vice emulator, compiled in Emscripten, and there are already 10,500 titles available, which the Archive confirms is a growing number. In fact, at time of writing it already seems to have exceeded 15,000.
The recent Steam Play beta is now out for everyone, plus a minor beta update
If it doesn't show up for you, restart Steam. Hopefully in future the stable updates won't require this, I imagine an improved update flow will be worked on eventually although it's not much hassle to quickly restart Steam.
Additionally, there's a very minor 3.7-8 beta available which only notes that it has "Minor compatibility fixes in preparation for future Proton versions.". While minor, the wording has piqued my interest to see what they're going to be doing.
Programming puzzler 'OCTOPTICOM' adds Linux support
For those of you who love programming and puzzle games, OCTOPTICOM looks like it might actually be quite good.
Geneshift has expanded the Battle Royale mode to support playing with a friend
Geneshift, the top-down shooter recently gained a Battle Royale mode that's really damn fun and the developer has continued to roll out improvements.
RimWorld 1.0 is going to release on October 17th next week
After being in development for over five years, the developer has now announced the final release. They've said that the game will be save-compatible going from the most recent version as long as you haven't installed any mods. It's not going to be much different to the most recent beta, since it will largely be a bug-fix release. Although, they did mention "a new food restriction system", which lets you restrict what your colonists and any prisoners are allowed to eat.
Epic Games have rolled out Unreal Engine 4.21 preview, with Linux improvements
Overall, it seems like a pretty good step up for Unreal Engine with a lot of new features, bug fixes and general code cleanups. It has improved IPv6 support, improvements to DDoS Detection and Mitigation, experimental support for the SteamVR Input subsystem, improved performance of the Unreal asset cooking process, loads of animation system updates and the list goes on and on.
The XCOM 2 'Tactical Legacy Pack' DLC shows how much love Firaxis has for the series and the fans
As a long time XCOM fan, the Tactical Legacy Pack for XCOM 2 certainly feels like fan service and it's really quite good. XCOM 2 was already good, difficult as hell but engrossing. The War of the Chosen expansion released last year expanded the game in a lot of ways and it became an even better experience. This was especially true, because of all the new story elements to the game which changed the direction of it quite a lot.
Now we have the Tactical Legacy Pack which includes new game modes, new maps, new weapons and armour and plenty more it's certainly not short on features. While not a complete game changer, it offers up enough to make it worth a purchase in my opinion. Enough to make me put down my new addiction to Rocket League for quite a number of hours, it's just that good.
Free to play robot battler 'Robocraft' adds a wave-based singleplayer mode
Robocraft, the rather good free to play robot building and battling game just added a an early version of their wave-based campaign mode.
I've tried it out and it's actually not bad at all, a pretty good way to really test your design skills against increasing waves of difficult enemies along with some more powerful boss robots.
Cities: Skylines - Industries expansion announced, releasing October 23rd
Paradox have announced the Cities: Skylines - Industries expansion due for release on October 23rd and as usual the DLC will work fine on Linux.
From the press release we got sent:
"With this expansion, players can make more meaningful choices in their cities' industry by managing their production chains from grain to bread." said Sandra Neudinger, Product Manager from Paradox Interactive. "The players have been asking for an industrial expansion for a while, so we're excited to finally offer a full featured approach."

Embedded system cross-development with Ubuntu Core
There are fundamental differences between developing general-purpose software applications and making software for embedded systems. Embedded systems software runs on resource-constrained hardware, in contrast to general-purpose server or client applications that run on more capable hardware. For this reason, embedded system software is not directly developed on the electronic board it will run on – referred to as the target. It is rather developed on a computer – the host – that has a higher computational capacity than the target board.

Four years after his goals propelled Italy into the European Championship final, Mario Balotelli won't even get a chance to play in this year's tournament.
As expected, Balotelli was left out when Italy coach Antonio Conte named a preliminary 30-man squad for Euro 2016 on Monday.
On loan from Liverpool, Balotelli scored only one goal in 20 Serie A appearances for AC Milan this season.
Midfielder Andrea Pirlo, who is 37, was also left out, as was Sebastian Giovinco, who like Pirlo plays in Major League Soccer.
The forwards Conte selected were likely starters Eder and Graziano Pelle plus Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne and Simone Zaza.
Italy is in Group E — one of the toughest of the tournament — with Belgium, Ireland and Sweden.

A Statement of Faith is a written declaration of the church's position on matters that pertain to the essentials of historical Christianity. The following statements comprise Calvary Chapel Moreno Valley's Statement of Faith:
We believe that there is one living and true GOD, eternally existing in three persons: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, equal in power and glory; that this triune God created all, upholds all, and governs all things.
(Genesis 1:1; Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 44:8 and 48:16; Matthew 28:19-20; John 10:30; Hebrews 1:3)
We believe that the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God, fully inspired without error and the infallible rule of faith and practice. The Word of God is the foundation upon which this church operates and is the basis for which this church is governed. We believe that the Word of God supersedes any earthly law that is contrary to the Holy Scriptures.
(Isaiah 28:13; Nehemiah 8:8; John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Hebrews 4:12; 1 Peter 1:23-25; 2 Peter 1:3-4 and 1:21)
We believe in the person of God the Father, an infinite, eternal, personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love; that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men; that He hears and answers prayer; and that He saves from sin and death all those who come to Him through Jesus Christ.
(Deuteronomy 33:27; Psalms 90:2; Psalms 102:27; John 3:16 and 4:24; 1 Timothy 1:17; Titus 1:3)
We believe in the person of Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teachings, his substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people and personal, visible return to earth.
(Isaiah 7:14; Micah 5:2; Matthew 1:23; Mark 16:19; Luke 1:34-35; John 1:1-2, 8:58 and 11:25; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; 1 Timothy 3:16; Hebrews 1:8; 1 John 1:2; Revelation 1:8)
We believe in the person of the Holy Spirit, Who came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify and empower for ministry all who believe in Christ;
(Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 3:18; John 16:8-11; Romans 8:26 and 15:13,16; Hebrews 9:14)
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ and that He is an abiding helper, teacher, and guide.
(John 6:13, 14:16-17 and 16:8-11; Romans 8:26)
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit and in the exercise of all Biblical gifts of the Spirit according to the instructions given to us in 1 Corinthians 12-14.
(1 Corinthians 14)
We believe that all people are sinners by nature and, therefore, are under condemnation; that God saves and regenerates based upon faith by the Holy Spirit, those who repent of their sins and confess Jesus Christ as Lord.
(Acts 8:15-17; Ephesians 2:1-3 and 8-9; Romans 3:23 and 5:8; Titus 3:5)
We believe in the universal church, the living spiritual body, of which Christ is the head and all who are born again are a part of the Body of Christ.
(1 Corinthians 12:12-13; Ephesians 4:15-16)
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ instituted two ordinances for the church: (a) full immersion water baptism of believers, and (b) the Lord's Supper.
(Matthew 28:19; Luke 22:19-20; Acts 2:38; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
We also believe that the Lord Jesus Christ validated the ordinance of marriage.
(Matthew 19:4-5 and John 2:1-11)
We believe in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ which is His personal, visible return to earth and the establishment of His millennial kingdom, in the resurrection of the body, the final judgment and eternal blessing of the righteous and endless separation of the wicked.
(Matthew 16:27; Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11-16, 20:11-15)
We believe in a literal Heaven and a literal Hell and that all those who place their faith, hope and trust in Jesus Christ will spend eternity in Heaven with the Lord, while those who reject Jesus' free gift of salvation will spend eternity separated from the Lord.
(Psalm 9:17; Matthew 5:3, 5:22, 18:9 and 25:31-34; Mark 9:42-49; Luke 12:5; John 3:18; Hebrews 12:23; 1 Peter 1:4; Revelation 14:10-11 and 20:11-15)
We believe in the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church where all believers will meet the Lord in the air and be taken out of this world prior to the Tribulation that will come upon the earth.
(Isaiah 26:20; Matthew 24:29-31; Luke 21:36; Romans 1:18, 5:9; 1 Thessalonians 1:10, 4:13-16 and 5:9; 2 Peter 2:7-9; Revelation 3:10, 5:7-10 and 7:13-14)
We believe that marriage is exclusively the legal union of one genetic male and one genetic female as outlined in scripture and sanctioned by the state and evidenced by a marriage ceremony. We also believe that legitimate biblical sexual relations are exercised solely within marriage. Hence, sexual activities such as, but not limited to, adultery, fornication, pre-marital sex, incest, polygamy, homosexuality, transgender-ism, bisexuality, cross-dressing, pedophilia, and bestiality are inconsistent with the teachings of the Bible and the Church. Further, lascivious behavior, the creation, viewing and/or distribution of pornography and efforts to alter one's physical gender or gender related appearance are incompatible with a true biblical witness.
(Genesis 2:24; I Corinthians 5:11; 6:9; 6:18-20; 7:1-3; 7:8-9; Romans 1:18-32)
We believe in Creation and God as the Creator. We believe that God created man and that He created them male and female. As such, He created them different so-as-to complement and to complete each other. God instituted monogamous marriage between a male and female as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society. For this reason homosexuality and all other "sexual preferences" or "orientations" are unnatural, sinful, and unacceptable to God (1 Corinthians 6:9-11; I Timothy 1:9-11). Accordingly, this ministry will not perform any marriage ceremonies between two individuals of the same sex. It will not condone or recognize such same-sex marriages, civil unions, or domestic partnerships even if the state passes laws that provide for recognition of such unions.
To walk with God and grow spiritually, it's an absolute necessity to be involved in a church. The Bible instructs us to "consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together..." (Hebrews 10:24-25)
In The New Testament, temple and synagogue are the only words that describe a building as a place of worship. Today's church is not a building, but an assembly of people who make up the body of Christ (Colossians 1:24; Romans 16:5). The universal church consists of genuine Christian believers of all ages, both on earth and in heaven. There won't be any denominations in heaven – only believers!
Although we are all members of the universal church, the body of Christ, it's very important for a Christian to identify with a body of believers in a local church. We need each other in order to develop fully as Christians (1 Corinthians 12:4-27). We are also disciples who are commanded to make disciples (Matthew 28:19). But to do so, we must spend time around other believers.
What makes the church effective today is no different from what made the early church effective. It's the Spirit of God working through the Work of God in the hearts of His people. Jesus told His disciples, "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth" (Acts 1:8). Only a Spirit-filled church can be an effective church. We simply need to ask God to empower us.
The purpose of the church is threefold. First, the church is to exalt God. He called us to live "to the praise of His glory" (Ephesians 1:12).
Second, the church is to edify the saints. Paul exhorts us to "present every man perfect in Christ Jesus" (Colossians 1:28).
Third, the church is to evangelize the world. Jesus told His disciples, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" (Mark 16:15). We believe in adhering to these purposes, while keeping them in proper balance.
The practice of the church is fourfold. It is to be a worshipping church, a learning church, a loving and united church and a praying church. We find the trademarks of a healthy church in the book of Acts: "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers" (2:42).
Ordinances of the church are outward rites or symbolic observances commanded by Jesus, which set forth essential Christian truths. We observe the ordinances of water baptism and communion.
Jesus told His disciples, "On this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it" (Matthew 16:18). The Bible says that the head of the church is Jesus Christ Himself (Ephesians 1:22; 5:23).
God created humanity with a capacity to know, love and worship Him. Worship is that place where the heart of God and the heart of His child meet.
Oswald Chambers said, "Worship is giving to God the best He has given you." Worship carries the idea of showing reverence to God. It's an active, adoring response whereby we declare His worth. To worship means to bow down and pay homage to God: "Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker" (Psalm 95:6).
Jesus said, "You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve" (Matthew 4:10). Man is not worthy of worship, and neither are the idols that people make. God alone is deserving of our worship.
We worship the Lord as a response to His attributes and His wonderful works. The Lord has loved us, saved us and continually cares for us. The worship of God is broad in its scope. It manifests itself through appropriate motivation or activity, that seeks to present a heart of gratitude and humility before our Almighty King. (For these reasons, we will seek to express our love for God, so that He is magnified and His purposes are fulfilled).
"God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth" (John 4:24). Worshiping in spirit means giving God the homage of an enlightened mind and an affectionate heart. Worshipping in truth, is to worship God according to the truth He has revealed in His word, the Bible.
Worship should not resemble a spectator sport where we sit and watch others play. Worship requires participation. We worship the Lord through our words of praise and exaltation of God, by giving thanks to God in all things, by sharing His love with others.
Worship is a sacrifice. The Apostle Paul instructed believers, "offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship" (Romans 12:1 NIV).
We can make every day a worship experience, when we yield ourselves to the Lord. God has created each of us with a mind, heart, and spirit and wants us to use them for His glory. True worship is not lip service, but life service. It is to be as much a part of our lives as breathing and eating. Worship should be demonstrated in every area of our lives, every day of our lives.
We express our worship as we read the Bible (Psalm 119), pray, give tithes and offerings and offer praise through music. But the greatest demonstration of worship is through the lives that we live.
True worship always magnifies God and our outlook toward Him. As God is magnified, everything else becomes insignificant. We begin to see beyond our circumstances and limitations, our fears diminish, and our spirits become refreshed.
Baptism is not a personal choice, but a command for believers. Jesus established water baptism as an ordinance when He gave the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:16).
Water baptism is a public, outward testimony that indicates a personal, inward faith. It gives evidence of the inner change that has already occurred in the believer's life, when he or she was "born again" through faith in Jesus Christ.
We are to be baptized because Jesus Christ commanded it (Matthew 28:19), and because we love the Lord. Jesus said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments" (John 14:15). Throughout the book of Acts, we read how the early church gave importance to water baptism (2:41; 8:12,38; 9:18; 10:47-48; 16:15,33; 19:3-5).
All born-again believers in Jesus Christ and only believers should be baptized. (Mark 16:15-16; Acts 8:12, 36-38; 16:31-33; 18:8)
After Peter spoke at Pentecost, "those who gladly received his word [in its entirety] were baptized" (Acts 2:41, emphasis added). In the New Testament, every instance in which a person was baptized and his or her identity was given, that person was an adult. In light of Scripture, infant baptism must be ruled out, because infants cannot receive the Word of God and understand it. However, infants are to be dedicated to the Lord (1 Samuel 1:26-28). Children may be baptized if they receive and understand God's Word.
As part of the Great Commission, Jesus instructed the disciples to baptize "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19).
The Bible clearly teaches that we are saved by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9) and according to God's mercy (Titus 3:5). The thief on the cross next to Jesus had no time to be baptized; yet Jesus promised that he would be with Him in Paradise that day (Luke 23:43). The Bible contains no record of Jesus baptizing anyone - a strange omission if baptism was essential for salvation. The Apostle Paul declared, "For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel..." ( 1 Corinthians 1:17). This clearly indicated that salvation is a response of faith to the gospel ? not the act of baptism. Therefore, water baptism is not an act of salvation, but an act of obedience.
The Bible clearly teaches that there is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:11; 44:6; Mark 12:29; 1 Corinthians 8:4; Ephesians 4:6; Timothy 2:5). At the same time, the Bible plainly indicates a plurality within God's nature, consisting of three eternal and coequal persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, each the same in basic nature, but distinct in existence.
Although the word Trinity does not appear in the Bible, the doctrine of the Trinity is a factual conclusion, reached by comparing and combining relevant scriptural truths. "We are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Holy Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language [to those who possess the Holy Spirit]" (1 Corinthians 2:13 AMPLIFIED).
The Trinity is one of the great mysteries of the Bible that cannot be fathomed by the finite mind. Yet, if God were small enough to figure out, He wouldn't be big enough to worship. The Bible tells us that God's thoughts are not our thoughts, nor are His ways our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9). Though we will never fully understand the doctrine of the Trinity, there is no reasonable doubt that it is clearly taught in the Bible.
The Bible teaches that God is all-knowing (Job 37:16; Romans 11:33), all-powerful (Genesis 1:1-3; Job 42:2), all-present (Psalm 139:7-12), eternal (Exodus 3:4; Revelation 1:8), unchangeable (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17), holy (Isaiah 57:15; 1 Peter 1:15-16), righteous and just (Psalm 116:5), merciful and gracious (Psalm 103:8), and able to forgive sin (Exodus 34:6-7; Mark 2:7). The Bible ascribes these characteristics to God alone.
The Bible ascribes the same attributes of God to His Son, Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:21-23; 28:18; Luke 5:20-24; John 1:1,14; 8:58; 16:30, 17:5; Hebrews 13:8). Jesus Christ is worshiped (Matthew 14:31-33; 28:8; Hebrews 1:6); He is called God (Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 1:21-23; John 1:1,14; 20:28), and He can forgive sins (Luke 5:20-24; John 10:30-33). These attributes are ascribed to God alone.
The activities and characteristics of God are attributed to the Holy Spirit (Psalm 139:7-10; Luke 1:35; 11:13; John 14:26; Hebrews 9:14). The Holy Spirit is a person (John 16:13-15; Romans 8:27; 1 Corinthians 2:10-13; 12:11), He is Creator (Genesis 1:2; Job 33:4), and He is called God (Acts 5:1-11).
For the above reasons and more, we are left with no other rational, biblical conclusion than to believe that God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit exist as a Holy Trinity: the one God of the Bible. There is no question of the existence of the Trinity, the only question is one of belief. We should want to know God, not as we think He should be, but simply as the Bible reveals Him to be.
The Bible is a book of history, science, poetry, and human behavior. Most importantly, it is a love story that reveals the heart of God through the person of His Son, Jesus Christ.
The Bible was written over a period of 1,500 years by more than 40 authors in three languages, on three continents. Rather than contradicting one another, the writers maintained 100 percent historical, moral, prophetical, and theological accuracy, writing with harmony and continuity from Genesis to Revelation.
The Bible was written by men (2 Peter 1:20-21) under the inspiration of God (2 Timothy 3:16). God exerted His supernatural influence on the writers of the Bible. In other words, God was the author and men were His writing instruments.
Studying the Bible is an absolute must for Christians. The Bible instructs, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God..." (2 Timothy 2:15 KJV). The systematic preaching of the Bible is impossible without the systematic study of the Bible. We are not to skim a few verses in our daily Bible reading, nor are we to study a passage only when we're about to share it. We need to immerse ourselves daily in God's Word, like the Bereans who searched the Scriptures daily (Acts 17:11).
To build a model airplane, we need to follow a set of instructions. Only then will the final product look like its counterpart on the box. In the same way, we need to follow God's instruction manual for life, the Bible. Only then, will our lives reflect Jesus Christ. The Bible says, "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness" (2 Timothy 3:16).
The Bible was "written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope" (Romans 15:4). We find hope through learning about God, His ways, and His plans for our lives. When we discover the promises of God, we recognize there is more to life than merely existing. We discover there is life beyond this life. Through the Bible, we obtain hope, encouragement, comfort, strength, wisdom, and much more. Best of all, we gain understanding of how to know God personally and how to live for Him righteously.
To find our way through the dark, we need a flashlight. Only then can we see clearly and avoid stumbling. The psalmist described God's Word as "a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path" (Psalm 119:105). As we allow the Bible to direct our lives, we'll keep from stumbling and falling.
If you want to be wise, read the Bible. If you want to be safe, believe the Bible. If you want to be right, obey the Bible.
Nearly 2,000 years ago, Jesus asked the question, "What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He?" (Matthew 22:42). A person's answer to that question can determine his or her eternal destiny.
The Apostle John declares Jesus' preexistence in John 1:1, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Jesus says He is "the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End" (Revelation 1:8). Jesus reigns eternally (Hebrews 1:8), and He exists before all things (Colossians 1:17).
Jesus did not become God-He always has been God, and is the second member of the Trinity. Referring to His deity, Jesus said, "Before Abraham was, I AM" (John 8:58). The preexistence of Jesus Christ and the deity of Jesus Christ are inseparable. You cannot accept one and deny the other.
The word incarnation means "in flesh." It denoted the act in which the Son of God took to Himself the nature of humanity through the Virgin Birth (Matthew 1:23). John writes, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us" (John 1:14).
For Jesus to represent fallen humanity, He had to become a man. His Virgin Birth, which was essential for Him to be sinless, was prophesied long before it occurred (Genesis 3:15; Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 1:18, 23; Luke 1:34-35; and Galatians 4:4). Jesus experienced everything in life that we do: pain, suffering, thirst, hunger, sorrow, anger, and so on; yet, He was without sin (Hebrews 4:15).
The penalty for our sin is death (Romans 6:23). Jesus died in our place and paid our penalty (Matthew 20:28; John 10:17-18; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 3:18). The death of Jesus on the cross laid the foundation on which a righteous God could pardon guilty and sinful people without compromising His righteousness in any way.
Jesus' resurrection assures us of our future resurrection. Because of His victory over death, we have victory as well. Without the resurrection, there would be no gospel message. His resurrection has been proven beyond a shadow of doubt (Matthew 28:5-8; Luke 24:39; John 20:27-28). The empty tomb, the shape of His linen wrappings, and His appearances to many after His crucifixion were just a few of the credible evidences of His resurrection.
After His resurrection, Jesus visibly departed from His disciples into heaven (Luke 24:51; Acts 1:9). His ascension and exaltation were necessary to complete when He rose from the dead (Mark 16:19; Philippians 2:9; Ephesians 1:20-21; Hebrews 1:3).
Jesus Christ will return to this earth and receive His Church, the body of Christ, to Himself (John 14:1-4; Acts 1:11; Revelation 1:7).
The Bible has a lot to say about Christians and their money. In fact, the Bible contains more than 2,000 Bible verses on the subject. Time and again, the Bible associates our money with our commitment and relationship to the Lord.
The word give has been defined as "to make a present of." One of the many ways we can help others is to give financially. Through giving, the early church helped one another and invested in what God was doing. Sadly, the concept of giving has become distorted today. Yet our giving is vitally connected to who we are.
Giving is a spiritual sacrifice and an expression of love and gratitude, because everything we have comes from God (1 Chronicles 29:14). Some people say, "I can't afford to give!" In reality, we can't afford not to give. David said that he would not give to the Lord that which cost him nothing (2 Samuel 24:24). No matter what we give to God, what is left will always sustain us better than if we hadn't given at all.
The way we give indicates a great deal about our spirituality. Our giving reveals our value system. Jesus said, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21). God does not ask us to give because He needs our resources. Rather, He challenges us to make Him the focus of our lives instead of our money and possessions.
Although the Apostle Paul never overemphasized the subject of giving, he never neglected the importance of it, either. In 1 Corinthians 16:1-12, we find specific guidelines for giving: it is also to be a universal practice for believers (v. 1); it is to be done weekly (v.2); it is a personal act (v.2); and it is something we should be prepared to do (v. 2). As we give, God will meet our needs and prosper us (2 Corinthians 9:6-10).
God promises to bless us if we have the right attitude toward giving (Luke 6:38; Proverbs 3:9-10). However, some people give with the wrong motives. They may give in an attempt to manipulate God, to relieve guilt, to increase self-worth, to achieve recognition, to obtain power, or to gain tax advantages.
However, the Bible instructs us to "let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver" (2 Corinthians 9:7). The motives that God desires for our giving are to: express our love to Him, please Him, lay up treasures in heaven, and help reach the world for Jesus Christ.
A steward oversees the affairs and property of another person. Stewardship implies that everything we have belongs to God. Being a good steward means to manage our resources well and use them to glorify God.
Old Testament law required God's people to give 10 percent of their income, which could include flocks, herds, or crops. This 10 percent was known as a tithe. In addition to the tithe, God's people were required to give offerings to the Lord for the care of the temple and the salaries of the priests. In the days of Israel, tithing was not voluntary giving. It was demanded as a form of taxation.
Is tithing for today? Dr. J. B. Gabrell made this observation: "It is unthinkable from the standpoint of the cross that anyone would give less under grace than the Jews gave under law." God makes an incredible promise to those who give to His work. He will "open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it" (Malachi 3:10-11).
Communion, often called "The Lord's Supper," is a memorial in which Christians identify with the crucifixion of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 10:16, 11:20). It's a time for believers to remember the Lord's broken body and His shed blood for all people (Luke 22:19-20).
Jesus Christ instituted communion on the eve of His death when He ate the Passover meal with His disciples (Matthew 26:26-29; Mark 14:22-25; Luke 22:14-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-25).
Bread and wine were once served for the Lord's Supper. (Today many churches, including ours, use crackers and grape juice.) The bread symbolizes Christ's body, which was beaten and broken for us as He died for the sins of humanity. The cup of wine symbolizes His blood, which was shed for us as He paid for our sins (John 10:17-18; Ephesians 1:7; Romans 5:8-9).
Anyone who participates in the Lord's Supper must first be a believer. Jesus commanded His disciples to observe communion (Matthew 26:26); therefore, a person must have placed his or her faith in Jesus Christ for salvation before taking part in communion.
In addition to being believers, we must prepare our hearts to participate in the Lord's Supper. Paul instructed believers not to "eat this bread or drink this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner..." (1 Corinthians 11:27).
Last, we must examine our lives for any unconfessed sin. Paul reminds us, "Let a man examine himself" (1 Corinthians 11:28) to avoid bringing judgment upon ourselves. As we become right with God through confessing our sins (1 John 1:9), we may then participate in the Lord's Supper in a worthy manner.
Communion is a time to look back, remembering the Lord's death on the cross. His death was more than just an atoning death – it was a substitutional death. He died in our place so that we might live. He took our sins upon Himself so that we could receive His righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21).
Communion is a time to look within, considering our lives in light of our profession of faith. As we enter into a time of communion with the Lord, we are to thank Him for our salvation and the privilege of being His children.
Communion is a time to look ahead toward the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Paul said we're to "Proclaim the Lord's death till He comes" (1 Corinthians 11:26). The Lord's Supper foreshadows the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb (Revelation 19).
Today, we stand between the two most important events in human history: the First and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. When we observe The Lord's Supper as Christians, we become connected to both.
Then He took a little child and set him in the midst of them. And when He had taken him in His arms, He said to them, "Whoever receives one of these little children in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me, receives not Me but Him who sent Me" (Mark 9:36-37).
At Calvary Chapel Moreno Valley, we realize the future will one day be in our children's hands. We want to do all we can to encourage and equip the children in our church to walk with God, both now and throughout their adulthood.
As a church that loves children, we place a high priority on providing a loving, relaxing and clean environment for your children. The goal of Calvary Kids is to attract children and help their families in laying a foundation of biblical truth and encourage them to surrender their lives to God. We pray that your child's experience with us is "the best hour" of their week.
Our well-rounded curriculum and activities are geared to minister to children's needs, to help them grow into a functional member of the body of Christ. In addition to Calvary Kids, we offer vacation bible school and a variety of other activities and learning opportunities for children of all ages.
We provided a soundproof, private room for nursing mothers who would like to hear and observe services in the Main Sanctuary. Located at the southwest corner of the sanctuary, you may enter the Nursing Mother's Room from the foyer. Husbands and siblings are not permitted in the Nursing Mother's Room and are encouraged to find the age-appropriate class in our Children's Ministries.
We provide nursery care for children, birth to two years old, with a ratio of one worker caring for every four children.
We offer Children's Ministry classes that include age-appropriate curriculum for children 3 years of age through 5th grade at all Sunday morning services and on Wednesday evenings.
We invite all 6th - 10th grade students to join us as we meet at 9:45AM and 11:45AM on Sundays.
Our Jr High and High School Youth groups meet Wednesday nights at 7PM.
Our Calvary Kids Ministry and Nursery care programs are designed to minister to the children at their age level. We encourage all parents to take advantage of these ministries that we created and specially prepared for your child. We wouldn't want to rob your child of the opportunity of hearing and seeing God's Word in action in their very own age-appropriate setting. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you place your children into their appropriate classes so they will benefit from the Children's Ministry program and not be a distraction or hindrance to God's Word being taught in the main sanctuary. Our desire is to provide a quiet and distraction-free environment to enable everyone present to worship the Lord, hear God's message clearly, and to respond if an invitation is given.
If your child(ren) must accompany you into service, we ask that you observe the following guidelines:
If your child(ren) are 4th grade and younger, we ask that you please sit in the Overflow Room. An usher will be happy to direct you.
If your child(ren) are 5th and older, we ask that you please have your children sit with you during the worship service and teaching.
To do God's work, we need God's power. Jesus told His disciples, "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you..." (Acts 1:8).
The baptism of the Holy Spirit is for all who believe in Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord, and who are children of God through Him (Acts 2:38-39).
The baptism of the Holy Spirit occurs when the Spirit of God comes upon a believer. The Holy Spirit fills the believer's mind with genuine understanding of truth, takes possession of the believer's abilities, and imparts gifts that qualify the believer for service in the body of Christ.
The Holy Spirit also speaks to the hearts of unbelievers, showing them their need for salvation (John 16:7-11). When a person accepts Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, the Holy Spirit dwells inside him or her (John 14:15-17; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 12:13). But believers also need the baptism of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:5-8).
The purpose of the baptism of the Holy Spirit empowers believers for service, witness, spiritual warfare, and boldness in their testimonies (Acts 1:8, 4:19-20, 29-31; 6:8-10; 1 Corinthians 2:4).
Jesus commanded the disciples not to begin the work to which He had called them until they were baptized in the Holy Spirit (Luke 24:48-49; Acts 1:4,8). When the apostles met believers in Christ, they at once asked whether the believers had received the Holy Spirit. If not, they made sure the believers received Him (Acts 8:14-16; 19:1-5). The baptism of the Holy Spirit is an absolute necessity in every Christian's life for the service to which God has called us.
Jesus said, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!" (Luke 11:13). God fulfills His promises in a variety of ways, and no two human beings are alike in how they receive spiritual things.
The New Testament tells us that some believers received the baptism of the Holy Spirit at the moment of their conversion, such as Cornelius and his family (Acts 10). Others, such as the believers in Ephesus, received it at a later time (Acts 19:1-5). We should never limit God by our own expectations. He is sovereign and will work in whatever way He chooses.
"...looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our Great God and Savior Jesus Christ..." (Titus 2:13)
The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ will return to earth in bodily form as He promised. Known as the Second Coming, Jesus will return in righteousness and in judgment as He executes the will of God upon a Christ rejecting world.
This doctrine is found referenced in nearly all the books of the Bible. When Jesus returns to earth in the Second Coming, the Bible says that every eye will see Him coming in glory, accompanied by His holy angels and with the His church, known as the bride of Christ.
It is at that time, that Jesus will put an end to the battle of Armageddon, mankind's most feared and dreaded war to come. After the Second Coming, Jesus Christ Himself will take His rightful seat upon the throne of David, which will be established in Jerusalem, that might explain why Jerusalem is the most important city in the world at this hour, perhaps because of its future significance in the world. The Second Coming is spoken of as an awesome event that we will be extremely fearful for those in the world at that time.
The Bible also says that "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD" (Joel 2:31). Unlike the Rapture of the church, the Second Coming will disrupt the celestial, cosmic heavens and the earth will begin to shake at His coming!
With amazing drama, His return will be globally witnessed by all peoples and it will be a day of God's vengeance. Once the Second Coming has occurred, Jesus will begin to personally judge all those who survived the terrifying events of the seven year tribulation period. Once enthroned, He will separate the survivors, like a shepherd separates sheep from goats. The Second Coming of Jesus Christ is His authoritative, kingly retaking of the earth as scriptures teaches.
It would be better my friend, to trust Christ today, as we together look for the blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, rather than be part of the terrifying events of the Second Coming!
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 19:14).
The Bible says that children are a heritage and a reward from the Lord (Psalm 127:3). God has given Christian parents the tremendous responsibility of raising their children in the ways of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4). He entrusts parents with the responsibility of establishing a foundation built upon Jesus Christ early in the lives of their children.
In view of this responsibility, baby dedications are actually "family dedications." The entire family needs to be lifted up in prayer so that family members will be empowered to keep their responsibilities.
The Bible gives us an example of dedicating a child to the Lord through the account of Hannah in 1 Samuel 1:11, 26-28. Unable to have children, Hannah wept before the Lord because of her condition. As she was weeping, she made a vow to God and said, "O Lord of hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a male child, THEN I WILL GIVE HIM TO THE LORD ALL THE DAYS OF HIS LIFE..." (1 Samuel 1:11, emphasis added).
God honored Hannah's request and gave her a son named Samuel. Hannah kept her vow and dedicated (which means "to set apart") Samuel to the Lord.
To dedicate a child to the Lord is to make a vow to completely submit your child to the will of God and raise that child in the ways of the Lord.
Parents who have not placed their faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord will be unable to submit their children to God's will and His ways, because they themselves do not know the ways of the Lord. As a result, we must decline any requests to involve an unbelieving parent in the dedication of a child. We view this as an act of protection rather than rejection, as we cannot encourage someone to make a vow to God that we know he or she cannot keep. The Bible says, "It is a trap for a man to dedicate something rashly and only later to consider his vows" (Proverbs 20:25 NIV). The Bible records instances where God dealt severely with those who broke their vows to Him (for example, read Acts 5:1-11). A believing parent may dedicate a child independently of an unbelieving spouse. Single parents who dedicate their children may not have boyfriends or girlfriends with them on the platform.
Christian parents are to do all they can do to "set apart" their child to God until that child can make his or her own choice regarding a relationship with Jesus Christ. By dedicating a child to the Lord, parents make a vow to raise their child in God's ways and not their own. They commit themselves to this promise and must do all they can do to keep it.
The responsibilities God has entrusted to Christian parents include continuously praying for their children (Job 1:5), instructing them in the way of the Lord (Proverbs 22:6), setting a godly example (Proverbs 20:7), and disciplining them as the Lord would discipline us (Proverbs 29:15, 17; 13:24). These responsibilities can only be fulfilled in Christ's strength (Philippians 4:13).
As a parent, your devotion to God, or lack of it, will make a resounding impression on the next generation. May your legacy be a godly one.

Sometimes I just write code. And sometimes I clean up my code. Most of the times, I focus on the meat of the methods, hacking away at verbose or lengthy flows, re-factoring out common code, trying to untangle overly complex logic etc. Recently, I noticed that many of the conditional terms I write span very long lines and are a bit cumbersome to read. The reason for that is that many of the variable names are long, or the properties or both and that often the comparison is on a property of an object or member of a collection etc. So for instance:
if (summerCatalog.Products[0].ProductCategories[0].ParentCategoryID >= 1 && summerCatalog.Products[0].ProductCategories[0].ParentCategoryID <= 4)
Can become quite long. Long is not easy to read. Long is not easy to maintain. Long is not easy to think through. What I really wanted to say is if [value] is between [a] and [b].
Of course, one could say "lets just make the variable names shorter". But that flies in the face of self explanatory plain naming. So abbreviating for the sake of short-lineliness (New word! You heard it her first!) is out. Well, this is just screaming "EXTENSION METHODS" doesn't it? Here we go then:
/// <summary>
/// Returns whether the value is between the 2 specified boundaries.

throw new ArgumentException("minimum value must not be greater than maximum value");
return (value.CompareTo(minValueInclusive) >= 0 && value.CompareTo(maxValueInclusive) <= 0);
The Between function takes any object which supports IComparable<T> and performs syntactic sugar comparison with the inclusive min and max values. What's more, it adds a basic sanity check for the comparison. How many times do I do that sanity check in my normal code (!)? Now the conditional is
if (summerCatalog.Products[0].ProductCategories[0].ParentCategoryID.Between(1, 4))
At least I don't have to refactor this in my brain while reading.
Sure, you might say, but you could have just de-referenced the deep value and then have a shorter conditional, like so:
Category category = summerCatalog.Products[0].ProductCategories[0];
if (category.ParentCategoryID >= 1 && category.ParentCategoryID <= 4)

Oh for tech's sake!
It's sometimes hard not to get caught up in all the exciting new tech out there, but as internal communicators we need to be wary of tech saturation when using it as a medium of communication.
It is important to think about the culture in your workplace, and how people like to communicate. Are they social, do people have organic conversations with one another about the business or do they require more direction, such as a town hall? Are they happy to absorb and communicate on an intranet in addition to informative emails? It's good to know how teams engage with print and digital comms, but most will agree that nothing beats face to face interactions. This is when people are most engaged, they can ask questions and feel involved. Bearing this in mind, we must endeavour not to replace face to face with tech unless for a good reason. Tech should support real conversations, but not replace them.
From control to curation, ensure you are actively thinking about all pieces of digital comms, in particular their purpose and relevance. Let employees pick and choose what they want to see and how they want to interact; user generated content is well received and organic.
As we are becoming more connected than ever, new best practices and etiquette must too evolve to match the rate of change. Companies can set protocols around emails sent and received out of hours to ensure everyone knows what is expected of them, without feeling constant pressure to respond.

My quilt, called "Winchester", was quilted by the very talented Belinda Betts of Eucalypt Ridge Quilting in Orange, NSW. Thanks again, Belinda, for the gorgeous quilting!
The design for my quilt was inspired by motifs on the medieval floor tiles still visible at Winchester Cathedral in England, where my heroine, Jane Austen, is buried. My quilt is made from just two fabrics and is completely machine appliqued. The dogtooth borders were paper foundation pieced by machine. Belinda used a beautiful thread with a slight sheen to machine quilt lots of intricate detail on the quilt. I hope to see the real floor tiles in October when I am in England with Whitecroft Traditional Tours.
Unfortunately I could not be at the Show today as I was teaching my regular ladies at Patchwork Plus in Miranda. I am looking forward to going in on Sunday. I will be demonstrating at the Quilters' Guild demonstration area in the morning and white gloving in the afternoon. Come and say hi if you are there on Sunday.
Congratulations to all the winners!

Working in partnership
We are a highly experienced AV professional services partner working with AV resellers & channel partners to deliver the professional service component of small, medium and large-scale AV implementations throughout the UK and Europe.
Our ethos is based on working in partnership to build long-lasting and trusted relationships and our services help solve a number of different resourcing challenges.
Helping businesses that require additional resources to cover peaks in work load, in effect boosting capacity during busy periods and removing the overhead of employing additional full-time staff.
Working in partnership with businesses that choose to outsource AV services rather than employing their own internal resources. We provide the expertise required to support the sales process and subsequently the implementation of end-to-end AV solutions.
We work alongside some of the UK's leading Distributors giving their customers an option for 3rd party implementation services.
Our customer relationships remain exclusively in the reseller channel. The absence of direct end user relationships removes any conflict of interest, with our customers.

I think we all struggle with having the courage to take that first step.
The one that pushes us past our comfort zone. The one that might makes us fail (or succeed) at something. BUT, if you were to take the one question we all ask ourselves, "what could happen if I said yes?" and change it to "what could happen is I said NO?" we will know for sure whether it's worth taking that first step.
Let me now give you an example.
When I first started thinking about opening Hatched, I had about 4 friends in San Diego. I had no idea which neighborhood would work for this concept. I had two small kiddos at home, I didn't have the money to open a brick and mortar and I was scared to death.
So for months, I went down the path of questioning "What would happen if I open this place and it fails?"
The answers were pretty dramatic.
I would go in debt. I would spend less time with my kids. I will be paying for full time care for those littles. I might never have someone walk in the door and my ego would be blown.
So, I changed that question around and asked myself, "What would happen if I DON'T open?" And to be honest, these answers were way more detrimental to me; I would never know if it could work. I would lose my mind staying at home. I would be extremely depressed and spending way more on therapy than if I didn't at least try.
I can tell you, making that first step is always worth it.
Even if your step leads to failure, it leads to experience. It gives you more to share and help you become an expert.
You have to just try whatever it is you are thinking about. Get it off your mental plate. IT IS SO SO SO WORTH IT! I promise!
You will never find your joy and passion if it lives in your head and there's no action!
Here's to taking first steps!
Sending support to each and everyone of you for braving this crazy world in order to follow your dreams!
Love you all!

Being a housewife or a "houseband" is a job, whether or not others would acknowledge it. Most full-time homemakers feel unappreciated, unrecognised, or feel judged because of this choice. But we should also acknowledge the reasons why this setup is a privilege on its own.
You can afford it
In other people's homes, being a housewife or a houseband is NOT an option. Both partners must go out and find employment to bring in enough money to survive. In most countries, being employed can mean long hours at work, terrible commute, measly pay (I'm looking at you, Philippines), with hardly any breathing time to focus on your home.
But if your partner's day job can afford it, you have the option to be a full-time homemaker.
Late last year, I asked my husband if I should find a decently-paying entry-level job so I can help him earn money for us. He thought for a moment, and he said that I could go find one if having an office job was what I desired, but not for the money reason. He continued on to point out that some of expenses that we both will incur if we both have jobs: not having home cooked lunches, taking Uber on most days, and takeaway/delivered food at night because nobody cooked.
I did the maths. He was right, we'd probably earn less that way.
Delegated workload
Most working parents/husband/wives can get pretty exhausted in their day job, that nobody has enough energy to do household chores, run errands, or attend to a child's needs. If both of you work very hard at your day jobs, your patience tends to run thin. Simple tasks like tidying up a room after a hard day's work could even end up in arguments, sometimes with the I-did-it-yesterday or why-do-I-always-do-this-and-you-don't sentiments.
As a full time homemaker, your partnership has a better delegation of workload: Your partner takes care of making enough money, while you are in charge of taking care of the household (and usually, how money is spent wisely so that you always have enough.)
My daily job includes: meal planning, cleaning, home improvement, paying bills, running errands, doing the laundry, and budgeting. (Also: Arguing endlessly on the phone with utility companies!) On the side, I also monitor our investments, and seek ways to include recreational activities in my husband's schedule so he doesn't get burnt out.
Both our jobs end by 6 or 7pm, when we're having dinner at home. We have the next few hours to relax and talk about our day–instead of coming home and squeezing in chores when all we'd rather really do is put our feet up.
Undeniably the best part of being a full time homemaker is doing things yourself. Knowing where everything is versus domestic cleaning services, home-cooked meals versus takeaway food, being on top of errand versus outsourcing it.
As a housewife, I have enough time to make sure I feed us delicious and healthy meals. It's terribly easier to buy prepared food, compared to planning it out and making it from scratch. I get to learn what my husband doesn't like, or how spicy he'd like them prepared. It's almost a luxury to have food that aren't loaded with preservatives!
It may seem like a minute thing to others, but essentially my job as a housewife (and of other full time homemakers) is to make sure our partners and/or family has everything they need to go about their day without a hitch, if not easier.
Don't believe me? Let me tell you about the time I'm so annoyed when he asks me–while I'm still half asleep at 7am–where his white shirt with thin blue stripes are. Or that he took forever to decide what to wear. What's a homemaker to do? Make his life easier, of course.
Because he would not succumb to the Steve Jobs style of wearing the same thing every day, I made him a 6-week work clothes plan using all the possible combinations of his dress pants and shirts, with notes on which ones go to the laundry on specific weeks. Now he only has to refer to the printout; he knows what he's supposed to be wearing at any given day. Problem solved.
This is never to say that employed people's homemaking skills are inferior to full-time ones. I am saying how much of a privilege it is to be able to devote all of your time in making your family's life easier.
Though I never really dreamed of becoming one, I'd never regret it. Keeping a home is a life skill I wouldn't trade for anything. I know that there are so many negative comments loosely thrown at full-time homemakers, like how it is a sign of inequality, genderisation, being a burden to your partner, a waste of your education, and so on, but all of those just stem from naivety and the failure to recognise the importance of this job.
I am thankful for my husband who never fails to appreciate and value the work I put in day in and day out.
This post is dedicated to the late Mrs. Linda Reyes, an outstanding housewife from whom I learned the best version of sinigang ever. May you rest in peace.

LGC bring & buy
If you don't know already this Saturday is our bring and buy day! 9am-6pm
What it is, is a day where along side the normal games being played we allow space for people to bring items to put put for to sell/trade with others. The plan is that while you chat with others or game people will ask who owns whatever item for sale and then offer to buy or trade from you. These are usually very successful at LGC every year armies get traded and many go away happy with either their money or else their new stuff. I've done a few of the main questions we get asked with answers below!
Can I come down just to buy?
Is there cash machine nearby?
The one in shop beside is broken, bring cash
Where exactly is LGC?
Can I get food nearby?
shop attached to us does sandwiches, pot noodles and sausage rolls and things like that. Also we have a tick shop for drinks crisps and chocolate.
Can I come down just to sell?
Yes, although we would love more people getting involved and joining in games but if you really just wish to sell that's OK.
Can I reserve a spot to sell stuff?
No. We can only provide so much space and it's first come and first get. We do ask that when you arrive you have some way of marking out your items (stickers or stuff wrote on a box etc) and also that you try to use as little space as you can.
I'm down all day is there things I can join in?
yes there always is. Always people playing board games or else looking pick up games
Who do I speak to on the day about setting up?
someone wearing a committee shirt.

A Google self-driving car is on display at Google's I/O conference in Mountain View, Calif., May 18, 2016.
Cars with no steering wheel, no pedals and nobody at all inside could be driving themselves on California roads by the end of 2017, under proposed new rules that would give a powerful boost to the technology from the nation's most populous state.
Carmakers and suppliers gave widely differing timelines on Thursday for the introduction of self-driving vehicles, showing the uncertainties surrounding the technology as well as a split between cautious established players and bullish new entrants.
Chipmaker Nvidia, facing direct competition with the world's top chipmaker after Intel's $15 billion deal to buy Mobileye, an autonomous driving technology firm, this week, gave the most optimistic predictions.
Chief Executive Jens-Hsun Huang said carmakers may speed up their plans in the light of technological advances and that fully self-driving cars could be on the road by 2025.
"Because of deep learning, because of AI [artificial intelligence] computing, we've really supercharged our road map to autonomous vehicles," he said in a keynote speech to the Bosch Connected World conference in Berlin.
Germany's Bosch, however, the world's biggest automotive supplier, gave a timetable as much as six years longer to get to the final stage before fully autonomous vehicles, and declined even to forecast when a totally self-driving car might take to the streets.
Technology, liability among hurdles
Progress is fraught by issues including who is liable when a self-driving car has an accident, bringing down the costs of sensor technology and guarding against hacking.
"Of course, we still have to prove that an autonomous car does better in driving and has less accidents than a human being," Bosch CEO Volkmar Denner told a news conference.
Nvidia has applied its market-leading expertise in high-end computer graphics to the intense visualization and simulation needs of autonomous cars, and has been working on artificial intelligence — teaching computers to learn to write their own software code — for a decade.
"No human could write enough code to capture the vast diversity and complexity that we do so easily, called driving," Huang said.
Together with Bosch executives, Huang presented a prototype AI on-board computer that is expected to go into production by the beginning of the next decade. The computer will use Nvidia's processing power to interpret data gathered by Bosch sensors.
Degrees of autonomy
On the way to fully self-driving cars, levels of autonomy have been defined, with most cars on the road today at level two, and Tesla ready to switch from level four to five — full autonomy — as soon as it is permitted.
Level three means drivers can turn away in well-understood environments, such as highway driving, but must be ready to take back control, while level four means the automated system can control the vehicle in most environments.
Independent technology analyst Richard Windsor wrote this week that he doubted automakers would have autonomous vehicles leaving factories by a typical self-imposed deadline of 2020, mainly because the liability issue was unresolved.
"This is good news for the automotive industry, which is notoriously slow to adapt to and implement new technology as it will have more time to defend its position against the new entrants," he wrote.
But Nvidia's Huang said he expected to have chips available for level three automated driving by the end of this year and in customers' cars on the road by the end of 2018, with level four chips following the same pattern a year later.
That is at least a year ahead of the plans of most carmakers that have an autonomous-driving strategy.

Hundreds of Victorian grandmothers will rally in Melbourne today to call for the speedy transfer of refugee children and families from Nauru to safe settlement in the US.
The federal government last month announced a "one-off" deal with outgoing US president Barack Obama which aims to get refugees out of the detention camps on Nauru and Manus.
Grandmothers Against Detention of Refugee Children will ceremonially present travel backpacks with warm winter clothing for the 150-plus children expected to be sent from a southern hemisphere summer to the North American winter at the rally outside St Paul's Cathedral in the CBD at noon today.
The rally's Facebook event page invites supporters to join in, with a footpath walk with songs and banners planned to run across the Princes Bridge to the Queen Victoria Gardens.
"We want all Grandmothers, Friends of Grandmothers and especially Grandchildren to come," the event description reads.
"We want to offer some practical help to the children while sending a message to PM Turnbull that any delay in the long-awaited solution for the child refugees is unacceptable.
"Our idea is to provide a gift backpack filled with some key essentials for each of the children (150+ babies to 18-year-olds) leaving the hot Pacific summer for a North American winter."
Supporters have been invited to prepare their own gift backpacks, which should include a book, drink bottle, warm hat, scarf, warm socks and card.
The Grandmothers Against Detention of Refugee Children - Bendigo group has organised the event, and many of their members will travel by train to attend the rally.
With AAP.

So far I have written about "Colouring day", "love your cat day" and "Clean your keyboard day" but I must admit that "Love to Litigate day" is my favourite so far.
In order to prepare this article I read a lot of quotes about litigation and lawyers.
This is my favourite from a Judge in Japan who said :
"There are more lawyers in just Washington, D.C. than in all of Japan. They've got about as many lawyers as we have sumo-wrestlers."
Actually, litigation is a lot like Sumo Wrestling (which happens to be another fascination of mine – hmmm…is there a "Sumo Wrestling day"?) – you have to train a lot, you have to be disciplined and you must be prepared to advance on your opponent with just the right amount of fight without stepping foot outside the fine lines that mark the boundaries for the countless rules you have to follow.
So why do I do it?
Ever since I was a child I have had a really keen sense of right and wrong, a very strong moral compass and I get so upset when people step outside of that.
I am a lover of rules. If I have a set of rules I am good at sticking to them but also good at finding ways around them, when I need to.
Add to that the fact that a client can come to me with a horrible situation, a "snakes wedding" of knots and arguments and I can unravel that, pick out who is at fault and move towards a settlement that helps my client financially means that I absolutely love to litigate.
Empowering people to make positive change……
..is our mission statement at Swain & Co and that often comes about through litigation.
I am Head of the Clinical Negligence & Personal Injury team at Swain & Co and I work with talented lawyers who really make a difference to the lives of their clients. I asked them why they did it and this is what they said :
"the purpose of seeking compensation for my clients is to put them back in the position they were in but for the negligence. In most cases, this is simply not possible as no amount of money could ever replace the loss of a loved one or to compensate for the losses they have suffered. However, it is as close as we can get, as lawyers, to redress the position they are left in. I gain satisfaction from assisting those in their time of need to help fight for what they deserve and making a difference to their lives. Whether this is to bring some closure arising following a bereavement or to ensure that care needs will be catered for without having to worry about being able to afford it, each client has a unique requirement. Being able to assist them on their journey, to fight for their rights and obtain the compensation they deserve, is why I love to litigate."
"Accidents happen but some accidents happen as a result of somebody else failing to take sufficient care. And this is where I come in. When I am asked to help someone who has suffered an injury, and sometimes a very serious injury, I want to ensure a just and fair outcome. Some defendants accept responsibility quickly thereby allowing the claim to proceed with as little stress as possible.
Others, even if the face of overwhelmingly strong evidence, refuse to accept responsibility and there is therefore no alternative other than to issue court proceedings. In these circumstances, it is crucial to provide support and guidance throughout what is inevitably a very stressful process. And at the end of a successful case, when justice has been achieved, I realise just how much helping others means to me."
I am proud to be a Litigation Lawyer. I go to work every day wanting to help people right a wrong that has happened to them. I want to get answers for my clients, to get them the outcome and the financial compensation that they deserve.
That is why I love to litigate!
