Save The Bay's 2019 calendar is officially here! Thank you to everyone who participated in our photo contest and contributed to a truly inspiring and breathtaking collection of photos. It was no easy task, but after hundreds of submissions and much deliberation, the 12 calendar winners have been selected. Jay Huang's Blue Hour Fog received the most votes on Facebook, winning the People's Choice Award to make the calendar cover.
The calendar offers a daily reminder of why we work so hard to protect the beautiful Bay we share. Each photo tells a different story of Bay appreciation, and we hope they inspire you as much as they inspire us. We reached out to some featured photographers to ask why they cherish the Bay and what inspired their incredible shots:
"Kayacking in Richardson's Bay always changes my perspective, and sometimes it seems the birds and seals love the bay as much as I do." – Jen Gennari: (jengennari.com)
"If it wasn't for the Bay's beauty, I never would have started out as a photographer. There aren't very many major metropolitan areas where you can photograph a dozen different bird species, including a bald eagle, in a single afternoon. When I learned how close we came to losing this natural treasure in the '60s, I wanted to do my part to support the Bay's conservation today – so I'm thrilled to be a part of this year's calendar!" – Colin Neikirk: (ccneikirk.myportfolio.com)
"The ever-changing San Francisco bay offers up a plethora of fascinating landscapes, from shoreline flora and fauna to grand vistas from atop its distant peaks. It is truly a nature lover's dream." – Mike Oria: (mikeoria.com)

Liz sheds a little light on the amazing food that can be found in Boulder, Colorado.
By Liz Swartz
1. The Kitchen Next Door
This place is so much more than farm to table (which if you ask me is getting a little played out). The Kitchen Nextdoor is a revolution. From the honey Sriracha chicken wings, to the vegetarian meatloaf, anyone can find something amazing here. In 2015, the KND is opening their first out-of-state restaurant in Chicago, IL. Honey Sriracha wings for all!
What to try: Potato smashers with the honey Sriracha sauce.

2. Fresh Thymes Eatery
When I asked Christine Ruch, the creator of this magic place, why she thought her restaurant was the embodiment of Boulder, she said that people shouldn't have to sacrifice their food beliefs to get a fast meal. Her menu includes delicious options for gluten free folks, lactose intolerant peeps, and you can feel good about all of the ingredients that go into her dishes.
What to try: Chickpea flatbread or the magic bar.

4. Salt Bistro
ou just can't go wrong at Salt. It is consistently great and most things on the menu will blow your freakin' mind. What are the best two things in the world? Correct, cheese plates and pasta. Well guess what? Salt has an amazing cheese selection and they make their pasta in house (which if you're wondering does make a difference).
What to try: Wild Boar potato gnocchi with braised brussels sprouts.

I found this treasure in a box my mother unloaded on me last month. In it were reams of school papers from my academic heyday at parochial school (all those A+'s in religion), stacks of crayon drawings revealing a total lack of artistic talent, swimming certificates and this, from a ski trip to Ste Adele, Quebec sometime in the 1960's.Everything but this has gone straight into the recycling bin.
CSB took one look and said, "It's a good thing I know you now. Those glasses would have scared off a bear."
He did not mention the snowball hat or the braces.

We are getting to the end of the school year and often that is when we start considering our goals for next year and begin perusing the curriculum catalogs. This process of goal setting and reconsidering our victories and missteps during the previous semester is a good practice. It enables us to learn from mistakes and to challenge ourselves for the following year.
One of my personal resolutions usually entails organization of the homeschool room to some extent. It never fails that I have a monstrous pile of papers staring me down full of worksheets, projects, etc. belonging to each individual child. In the past I have stored all of those papers in individual boxes for each child, but not this year!
Join me as I de-clutter my homeschool room and look like an awesomely organized homeschooling mom in the process! Let me introduce you to what is known as the Homeschool Portfolio Binder.
A homeschool portfolio allows you to create a neatly organized binder filled with a sample of your child's work throughout the year. If you keep one portfolio for each year there is no need to keep boxes filled with papers and projects. This homeschool portfolio set is all you need!
Tips for organizing your child's school work into the portfolio:
- Take pictures of projects, experiments, artwork, and field trips to document neatly without the additional clutter.
- If your child uses workbooks during the year, only save 5-10 pages highlighting new concepts they learned and their best work.
- If your child uses online or CD-ROM based curriculum, print off the assessments provided to include in that section.
- For your older children, make sure to save key research papers, essays, and tests or anything that is a milestone.
- Throw the rest away. No need to store thousands of papers in boxes for years to come that you will never look at again!
If you are saving this information for a teacher evaluation for purposes of meeting state regulations, you can save more if required for that time, but then toss what is not the most important or sentimental following the evaluation.
Whether you are using a homeschool portfolio to meet requirements, this is a great way to organize your child's paperwork and create memories to save for years to come. I am sure your future grandchildren would love to read through their mom and dad's old school work one day. Maybe you have a husband who is skeptical of homeschooling and likes to see progress? Maybe you need a little confidence boost in the same area!
Please let us know in the comments below!

Update by user Mar 01, 2013
Sorry but I am not buying the attempt to pass off Seashell Stella's folksy sales pitch and praise for Bluegreen as the posting of an internet surfing grandmother from Iowa who just happened to come across my complaint on this site and who uses the phrase "for heavens sake", refers to another woman as "little gal" and makes all of her travel arrangements last minute. Right.
I do agree, however, with one thing in "Seashell Stella's" posting - if you want the truth about Bluegreen, ask an owner. Well, that's me. So ask me. If anyone reading this post has any questions about Bluegreen, please feel free post your questions here on this page and I will post a response.
I would be happy to share my experience as an Bluegreen owner over the past six years.
My complaints about Bluegreen are legitimate. Rather than pay people to post comments praising Bluegreen in response to legitimate complaints, Bluegreen would be better served to adopt honest business practices.
Original review posted by user Feb 22, 2013
Like scores of other duped Bluegreen owners, I purchased an ownership in Bluegreen based on false representations made and written documents provided during a sales presentation. In 2007, I purchased into Bluegreen in reliance on those representations and did so at the Silver Preferred Membership level specifically to obtain the benefits of the Silver Preferred Membership, which included the ability to "Pay Club Dues & Maintenance Fees with Vacation Points" per the written documents provided at the time of sale as well as membership materials subsequently mailed to me.
I also purchased at this level because it was sufficient to cover approximately 4 weeks of vacation stays per year. Plenty has been written about the false representations made during the sales process so I will limit my comments to the fraudulent claims contained in the written membership documents regarding use of vacation points to pay club dues and maintenance fees. The written documents contained more than just a statement that vacation points could be used to pay the dues and fees, they included a schedule explicitly listing the dollar amounts to be credited to fees by number of vacation points. My maintenance fees were approximately $1,000 per year.
According to the schedule, my number of annual vacation points could be exchanged for approximately $1,000 towards maintenance fees. After not being able to book any of the resorts I wanted during my first four years, I decided to use my annual points to pay the maintenance fees so that I wasn't completely wasting the points. When I tried to do so, however, I was told that I would receive $200 in return for all of my annual vacation points ($800 less than stated in the written terms of my ownership documents). In addition to being a breach of the terms of ownership and evidence of fraud and other claims, this was unconscionable.
Bluegreen pays $200 in return for 4 weeks worth of vacation points and then turns around and sells that resort time for $4,700 to $8,000 depending on resort (based on the nightly rates currently offered on travel sites as of today's date). That amounts to a markup of 2,250% to 3,900%. A business is lucky to sell a product at 100% of cost. Bluegreen sells resort time to to members at an unknown profit and then resells that very same time again at a two thousand percent or great markup when members don't use their time.
None of that outrageous profit is given to the member or even credited towards the members fees.
I am embarrassed that I fell for Bluegreen's deceptive practices but that stupidity doesn't make Bluegreen's actions any less deceptive or fraudulent.
Product or Service Mentioned: Bluegreen Resorts Vacation Ownership.
Monetary Loss: $23800.
I bought the 99.00 for the 3 days and 2 nights. I have no intentions of purchasing at ALL.
How this actually work. I may be asking for a refund.
I got sucked into paying for a 2 night 3 day trial type thing where we go to the sales pitch and then get to enjoy the resort. But I noticed in the paperwork that we have to pay the room tax.
Does anyone know how much the room tax is?
I feel like we are going to get screwed by this room tax. We are hoping to go to Orlando, FL.
I believe we are in the same boat...we joined in November at minimum level. Went back in January for "update".
Prepaid $49 for weekend reservation. We went for update which was just another sales pitch rather than explaining how the points work which is what we were told. We were ignorant enough to up our points to Bronze level. We were told club and maintenance fees were waived for first year.
The online system was just updated the beginning of this week so I wanted to make some reservations. It wouldn't let me. Yesterday, we received an $850 bill for club/maintenance fees that have to be paid before you can make any reservations-locked out. We haven't even had a chance to use any points and we're being held hostage for club/maintenance fees that we were told was waived for first year.
Oh, and $49 weekend stay ended up being $300.
And, I, like you don't buy response from "seashell" person. I am an owner too.
Funny, so many people are so concerned on this Pissed Customer, I guess I shoulda figured that with the name.
We got Bluegreen almost 4 years ago, and just enjoyed another great vacation. My husband and I have traveled places we never would have otherwise, we took a cruise around Italy for heavens sake.It was more than I ever dreamed it could be. The first year we took our daughters and grandkids to Orlando for 8 days and it was so beautiful, no one could believe we could afford it.
I wanted to buy it from the start but the Mr. was plenty worried about it, and I'm so glad that little gal just stuck with us and all our questions.
Everything the people mention below is all confused. Its easy to make reservations and we always do everything last minute.
We are going on our third cruse this July - to Alaska.
We recommend Bluegreen to our family and friends. Just believe. Ask an owner, not one of these people here who got scared away. Happy Vacations.
lady I DO NOT KNOW HOW *** YOU ARE I HAVE BEEN A SILVER MEMBER AND TRUST ME THERE IS NOT ONE WORD OF TRUTH IN ANYTHING YOU SAID PS MUST BE A BLUEGREEN ***

ASG Dan Wesson 8 inch Black - 4.5mm - BB - Revolver
If you could dream up the ultimate BB revolver, you probably would come short because ASG went beyond the imagination to make this 4.5mm BB revolver as believable as possible. The Dan Wesson revolvers use actual brass shells to load the BB's into the all metal cylinder. The Dan Wesson 8 inch version comes in a satin black finish with the extra long barrel! When you hold this gun in your hands you feel like you should be making a Dirty Harry movie.

Sharing the Gospel: My Story
I am grateful to have been able to share the gospel with hundreds of people in the last two and half years at various places: fairs, skate parks, school parking lots, malls, etc. In this series of articles I would like to share some things I've learned and experienced.
First, I do not consider myself as having the "gift of evangelism" nor do I consider myself a bold witness. Truthfully, for the majority of my Christian life I have been too scared to talk to people about the gospel. I've been a far cry from what the Apostle Paul said about himself:
"I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation of everyone who believes, first for the Jew then for the Gentile"
(Romans 1:16)
Throughout the years I've been inspired by sermons or books to share my faith only to "wimp out" when opportunities arose. Once, when I was a new believer I, along with my classroom parents, were in charge of a booth at the annual school carnival in Pleasant Hill, Oregon (I taught elementary school at that time). I had invited my wife Char, then a girlfriend, to come out and volunteer for a couple hours at the booth. After considering this invitation, I became fearful that she was going to speak openly about her faith in Jesus given her outgoing personality. I was scared about it because I didn't want anything to hinder my reputation. I did not want to be known as a "Jesus freak" or as religious fanatic.
I tried to break through this self-conscious fear but my nervousness often caused my witness to be indirect, awkward or forced. For years my evangelistic efforts seemed to be a complete bust. But I desperately wanted it to be different. Things began to change in 2006 during a season of revival God brought to my church. Infused with new courage I began to take risks I had not taken before. Specifically, I began to cultivate relationships with neighbors and with strangers. I met over fifty people in the neighborhood and at times I found myself boldly bringing up the gospel. It was exhilarating! But as time went on I was more successful at approaching people to start a conversation than I was at turning the conversation to spiritual things.
Months later I listened to a man's powerful testimony. After his conversion he so excited about Jesus he was compelled to tell everyone he saw about him. His boldness inspired me. I thought to myself: "I want to be like that. I love Jesus and he is precious to me and I want to tell people about him." Why is this so difficult for me?
On my drive home from that presentation the diagnosis to my problem hit me. I had a "filter" in my mind that was preventing me from sharing the gospel. Picture a filter similar to one you would use with your furnace to keep dust and other particles from circulating throughout your house. My "filter" served to keep me from sharing about Jesus and the gospel. This filter had been strengthened through the years and had been built up with warnings: "Don't be weird." "Don't rock the boat." "Be cautious." You don't want to be thought of as a religious fanatic or a Jesus freak." "Don't be rude." "Don't offend people." "They may not like you if you share."
I realized this filter had become so powerful and effective that it had to come down! My strategy would be this: I would attack this filter again and again causing it to weaken. The way I would do this would be to bring Jesus, the gospel or spiritual matters up in conversations. Eventually, I hoped the filter would become ineffective due to the holes I had poked through it as a result of my sharing. Though it has been a slow and sometimes painful process the filter is weakening.
One of the things that has spurred me on is seeing a friend of mine boldly sharing the gospel in a variety of settings. After observing him I set a goal to present the gospel to at least one person each day. It has been a wild and thrilling ride! Over the next few weeks I will be sharing some of the highlights. Stay tuned.
Next week: "Why Share the Gospel"

Three Sisters Charters
Three Sisters Charter is a privately held, local, business. As you look towards to your next Roatan excursion, you can rest assured that the crew of the Three Sisters Charter will go the extra mile to meet your needs. With tours to Cayos Cochinos, Pigeon Key, and other top destinations around Roatan, your next fishing adventure will be an unforgettable experience.
Three Sisters Charters operates a 26 foot Mako which is equipped for fishing the high seas and for recreational sports like snorkeling and a Subwing experience. Three Sisters has established relationships with land-based excursions as well, and guest are connected with local operators in between water excursions.
Three Sisters fishes off of the shoreline of West Bay and or a fishing peer in West End. Roatan offers a rich and diverse fishing experience. The entire fishing experience has improved over the years due to catch and release practices which have allowed fish to grow in size in the waters around Roatan Honduras. Roatan has the added benefit that fishermen do not travel far before they can get a hook in the water. This is possible because the waters around Roatan are deep just a few yards away from the shoreline. There are no long boat rides before you fish in Roatan.
"Without a doubt a top operator on Roatan Island. The crew is friendly but above all, they know how and where to fish. What an amazing team"
There are many fish species around Roatan. Among them are Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, White Marlin, and Blue Marlin. Of course, there is never a shortage of Barracudas. Do you prefer bottom fishing? The crew aboard the Three Sisters is also able to set up a slow drift to bring up Snapper and Grouper.
If you are pressed for time, consider the Subwing. The Subwing is an aquatic wing which is pulled behind the 26 ft Mako boat. The captain of the Three Sisters will gentle pull you as you hold on to the subwing. You'll be able to speed up the pull or slow it down. As you glide behind the boat, you will quickly learn how to navigate or fly underwater. The Subwing is an unforgettable experience, and it doesn't take long to enjoy it.
Further to all this, if you have more than just a few minutes, you can include mangrove tours to your list of adventures. Fishing can also be customized to a short 2-hour trip or a full day adventure which can end you up in the Cayos Cochinos. Snorkeling can be done at any time if your looking to explore underwater or should you need to cool off. The crew of the Three Sisters is well aware of the scenic locations, and they will take you there for photo ops and enjoy a nice picnic experience.
Utila & Guanaja are not far way, so be sure to request a visit to the other islands which form the Bay Islands of Honduras.
Three Sisters works with affiliates partnerships all over the Bay Islands, so you won't have any trouble locating a land based operator for an onshore experience.

Although our Junior racing team in 2018 seems to specialize in attending races with extreme weather conditions, June 9 was very much an exception. Many races before and after the juniors' races were rainy, but ours were held in perfect conditions. We had a great day, with good racing, and tons of fun on and off the course.
First, Sylvania: the Sylvania Cycling Classic and the Ohio State Criterium championships for juniors. We had Aidan, Ansel, and Logan racing in the juniors; they were part of a 20-strong field of little racers.
Each of our three junior racers learned a different lesson. Aidan had a very good race; after being dropped from the larger group, he methodically worked his way back. As a reward, he was still in the main group on the last lap, and able to get second place in his age group.
Ansel also rode cleverly, staying in the same group and doing little work. He let the older, stronger, kids do the pulls and had conserved enough energy to pull of a victory -- his first USA Cycling win.
Logan, meanwhile, found himself separated from the group early on and tried to find the right pace. He was doing well, but did run out of gas a few laps before the end. Several older riders passed him, but he held on to first place in his age group. Logan's first USA Cycling win as well!
Logan got to keep his medal, but Ansel and Aidan had to settle for podium places; being non-Ohio residents, they were ineligible for the State Championships medals. It still gives the AAVC plenty of bragging rights: all AAVC racers were faster than anyone from the state of Ohio!
Next up was the CyclingLawyer.com criterium in BTR Park in Kalamazoo. Aidan was done for the day, but Michael was able to join us (in his own age category), and so was Connell.
Michael raced first, in a very strong 15-18 field of just six starters. Predictably, the field fractured almost immediately, and Michael had to time-trial his way to a finish. And so he did, finishing fifth, behind riders who were averaging speeds over 25 mph.
Speaking of high speeds: the 9-14 race was torn apart quickly when the officials decided to hand out a prime just two laps into the race. Connell took the opportunity (winning the prime) to accelerate, break up the field, and never looked back.
He kept up a hammering pace throughout and took first place uncontested, lapping everyone except second and third place. Besides first place, he also took another prime.
Behind him, it was every man for himself. In Ansel's case, that was worth fourth place (first among those lapped); while further back, Logan had run a very clever race. Learning from his race in Ohio earlier, he started out slower, then got stronger and picked off several racers. His final placing was fifth. At the line, he was sprinting (and beating) Henry Wert, who however was a lap down.
A very honorable race for Logan who had also, unwittingly, found himself racing for a prime. He happened to lap a rider just as the official was looking for a pack of riders; the next lap, Logan had distanced himself and thus earned himself a nice bike computer! What a day.
After all that racing, the AAVC racers and parents decided to enjoy the Kalamazoo brew scene with excellent food at Bell's Brewery. And then the strangest thing happened. . .
A game of Flamme Rouge broke out in the hotel! Now that is proof that the Ann Arbor Velo Club Junior Development Team is about fast fun for the family. I can't recall who won, but none of us who played it will ever forget the strange tactics that somehow gave Logan a podium place finish. Keep playing those 9's, Logan!
The final race of the weekend was the 13-mile Race for Wishes in nearby Lawton. It was a completely different experience from Saturday. One, we went back to having extreme weather: a complete downpour just before the race start prompted Logan to take a DNS. He and Ansel were shivering uncontrollably and Logan took the better part of the race time just to warm up in my car.
Connell and Ansel did give it a go. There were only eight racers in a field that put the 10-year-olds with the 17-year-olds. Predictably, Connell finished ahead of Ansel. Both had to work hard to grind their way to the finish. Fifth for Connell, Eighth for Ansel.
And so concluded, in rather fizzling fashion, a very fun and memorable race weekend for the AAVC juniors. Sadly, it was Logan's last race with us, as he has now moved west to California. He'll still be an AAVC member and soon will race in AAVC colors. To show the other teams over there how it's done. Allez AAVC!

BE AWARE, THE SHEPHERD'S ROD DOCTRINES ARE DECEPTIVE and FALSE!
BUY IT TODAY! A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection
compiled and written by Dionne Sabbay Thompson October 1st 2010
"Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth" (Revelation 3:10).
Why would God permit inspired penmen to write about a seventh church? Why has the Seventh-day Adventist Church remained lukewarm for so long, are Ministers in our church taught to teach laodicean messages, fearing persecution? It appears obvious that through foreknowledge God knew that His brotherly loving church would turn away to lukewarmness, hence the church of laodicea is where God's last day church stands, preventing His conditional return (2Peter 3:12-14, Revelation 3:14-22). Sadly, many church goers have been taught to listen to their Pastors, failing to study the scriptures for themselves as the Berean-Minded individuals did in the past, fearing the label of offshoots or fanatics, may God help us (Acts 17:10-11).
"A battle is continually going on between the forces for good and the forces for evil, between the angels of God and the fallen angels. We are beset before and behind, on the right hand and on the left. The conflict that we are passing through is the last we shall have in this world. We are now in the midst of it. Two parties are striving for the supremacy. In this conflict we can not be neutral. We must stand either on one side or on the other. If we take our position on the side of Christ, if we acknowledge him before the world in word and work, we are bearing a living testimony as to whom we have chosen to serve and honor. In this important period of earth's history, we can not afford to leave any one in uncertainty as to whose side we are on"
(Review and Herald July 9th, 1908 paragraph 6).
"The True Witness declares: "Behold, I have set before thee an open door." Let us thank God with heart and soul and voice; and let us learn to approach unto him as through an open door, believing that we may come freely with our petitions, and that he will hear and answer. It is by a living faith in his power to help, that we shall receive strength to fight the battles of the Lord with the confident assurance of victory" (Review and Herald July 9th, 1908 paragraph 7).
"Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." In this scripture is brought to view the hour of temptation that is to try them that dwell upon the earth. We are now living in this trying hour. There is no escape for any from this conflict. If in your life there are defective traits of character that you are not striving to overcome, you may be assured that the enemy will endeavor to take advantage of them; for he is watching vigilantly, seeking to spoil the faith of every one. In order to gain the victory over every besetment of the enemy, we must lay hold on a power that is out of and beyond ourselves. We must maintain a constant, living connection with Christ, who has power to give victory to every soul that will maintain an attitude of faith and humility. If we are self-sufficient, and think that we may go on just as we please, and yet hope to come out on the right side finally, we shall find that we have made a terrible mistake. As those who hope to receive the overcomer's reward, we must press forward in the Christian warfare, though at every advance we meet with opposition"
(Review and Herald July 9th, 1908 paragraph 8).
"From Ephesus to Laodicea, the remnant church fell away from Truth, the Word, Jesus Christ—Ephesus, the purest church at its inception, experienced Christ's resurrection and ascension in 31 Anno Domini. Sadly after Christ's ascension, the church returned to its worldly lusts and appetites. Revelation 6:4 denotes a "red horse" exemplifying that persecution kept the church pure, until it began to compromise, causing the emergence of a "black horse" and balance [symbolizing compromise], later leading into the "pale horse" at which point the church became spiritually dead (Revelation 6:1-8). Because of compromise, the church symbolically died. Consequently, the church, the woman, fled into the "wilderness" (Revelation 6:5, Revelation 12:6). The 1260 years of spiritual darkness was as a result of the church separating from the Head, Christ. The forefather's mismanagement of the truth and its preaching was caused by the rejection of the Lord's pure teachings. God's remnant must follow all of His principles, which are unchangeable (Proverbs 30:6, James1:17). Satan, when given leeway, will prevent the work of God from its completion. The body of Christ must learn God's principles and character, as the Most High's word will not return to Him void, and He will not be mocked (Exodus 20, Isaiah 55:11, Galatians 6:7, 8)" [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection pages 80-81].
"As prophesied, the Seventh-day Adventist Church has reorganized, disregarding its initial, fundamental pillars, instead valuing intellectual philosophy and individual achievements over complete truth (1Selected Messages page 204). When truthseekers begin to study for themselves, worldly leaders label them as alarmists, fanatics and offshoots: however, be encouraged as God calls these "Berean-minded" individuals reformers and His children (Acts 17:10-11,Great Controversy page 605). "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children" (Hosea 4:6). Martin Luther, a great reformer, identified that the reformation would not end until the second coming of the Messiah. "The reformation did not, as many suppose, end with Luther". "It is to be continued to the close of this world's history" (Great Controversy page 148)" [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 13].
Let us reflect on History in the time of the end of the 2300 Day Prophecy October 22, 1844, the time of the Philadelphian Church (Revelation 3:7-13, Great Controversy pages 401-403):
(Revelation 3:7-13):
"And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Rev 3:13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches".
(The Great Controversy pages 401-403):
"Of all the great religious movements since the days of the apostles, none have been more free from human imperfection and the wiles of Satan than was that of the autumn of 1844. Even now, after the lapse of many years, all who shared in that movement and who have stood firm upon the platform of truth still feel the holy influence of that blessed work and bear witness that it was of God.
At the call, "The Bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet Him," the waiting ones "arose and trimmed their lamps;" they studied the word of God with an intensity of interest before unknown. Angels were sent from heaven to arouse those who had become discouraged and prepare them to receive the message. The work did not stand in the wisdom and learning of men, but in the power of God. It was not the most talented, but the most humble and devoted, who were the first to hear and obey the call. Farmers left their crops standing in the fields, mechanics laid down their tools, and with tears and rejoicing went out to give the warning. Those who had formerly led in the cause were among the last to join in this movement. The churches in general closed their doors against this message, and a large company of those who received it withdrew from their connection. In the providence of God this proclamation united with the second angel's message and gave power to that work.
The message, "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" was not so much a matter of argument, though the Scripture proof was clear and conclusive. There went with it an impelling power that moved the soul. There was no doubt, no questioning. Upon the occasion of Christ's triumphal entry into Jerusalem the people who were assembled from all parts of the land to keep the feast flocked to the Mount of Olives, and as they joined the throng that were escorting Jesus they caught the inspiration of the hour and helped to swell the shout: "Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord!" Matthew 21:9. In like manner did unbelievers who flocked to the Adventist meetings--some from curiosity, some merely to ridicule--feel the convincing power attending the message: "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!"
At that time there was faith that brought answers to prayer--faith that had respect to the recompense of reward. Like showers of rain upon the thirsty earth, the Spirit of grace descended upon the earnest seekers. Those who expected soon to stand face to face with their Redeemer felt a solemn joy that was unutterable. The softening, subduing power of the Holy Spirit melted the heart as His blessing was bestowed in rich measure upon the faithful, believing ones.
Carefully and solemnly those who received the message came up to the time when they hoped to meet their Lord. Every morning they felt that it was their first duty to secure the evidence of their acceptance with God. Their hearts were closely united, and they prayed much with and for one another. They often met together in secluded places to commune with God, and the voice of intercession ascended to heaven from the fields and groves. The assurance of the Saviour's approval was more necessary to them than their daily food; and if a cloud darkened their minds, they did not rest until it was swept away. As they felt the witness of pardoning grace, they longed to behold Him whom their souls loved.
But again they were destined to disappointment. The time of expectation passed, and their Saviour did not appear. With unwavering confidence they had looked forward to His coming, and now they felt as did Mary when, coming to the Saviour's tomb and finding it empty, she exclaimed with weeping: "They have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid Him." John 20:13.
A feeling of awe, a fear that the message might be true, had for a time served as a restraint upon the unbelieving world. After the passing of the time this did not at once disappear; at first they dared not triumph over the disappointed ones; but as no tokens of God's wrath were seen, they recovered from their fears and resumed their reproach and ridicule. A large class who had professed to believe in the Lord's soon coming, renounced their faith. Some who had been very confident were so deeply wounded in their pride that they felt like fleeing from the world. Like Jonah, they complained of God, and chose death rather than life. Those who had based their faith upon the opinions of others, and not upon the word of God, were now as ready again to change their views. The scoffers won the weak and cowardly to their ranks, and all these united in declaring that there could be no more fears or expectations now. The time had passed, the Lord had not come, and the world might remain the same for thousands of years".
(The Great Controversy page 421):
"As anciently the sins of the people were by faith placed upon the sin offering and through its blood transferred, in figure, to the earthly sanctuary, so in the new covenant the sins of the repentant are by faith placed upon Christ and transferred, in fact, to the heavenly sanctuary. And as the typical cleansing of the earthly was accomplished by the removal of the sins by which it had been polluted, so the actual cleansing of the heavenly is to be accomplished by the removal, or blotting out, of the sins which are there recorded. But before this can be accomplished, there must be an examination of the books of record to determine who, through repentance of sin and faith in Christ, are entitled to the benefits of His atonement. The cleansing of the sanctuary therefore involves a work of investigation--a work of judgment. This work must be performed prior to the coming of Christ to redeem His people; for when He comes, His reward is with Him to give to every man according to his works. Revelation 22:12.
Thus those who followed in the light of the prophetic word saw that, instead of coming to the earth at the termination of the 2300 days in 1844, Christ then entered the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary to perform the closing work of atonement preparatory to His coming".
(The Great Controversy page 423):
"The subject of the sanctuary was the key which unlocked the mystery of the disappointment of 1844. It opened to view a complete system of truth, connected and harmonious, showing that God's hand had directed the great advent movement and revealing present duty as it brought to light the position and work of His people"
(The Great Controversy pages 424-425):
" This coming is foretold also by the prophet Malachi: "The Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to His temple, even the Messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, He shall come, saith the Lord of hosts." Malachi 3:1. The coming of the Lord to His temple was sudden, unexpected, to His people. They were not looking for Him there. They expected Him to come to earth, "in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel." 2 Thessalonians 1:8.
But the people were not yet ready to meet their Lord. There was still a work of preparation to be accomplished for them. Light was to be given, directing their minds to the temple of God in heaven; and as they should by faith follow their High Priest in His ministration there, new duties would be revealed. Another message of warning and instruction was to be given to the church.
Says the prophet: "Who may abide the day of His coming? and who shall stand when He appeareth? for He is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: and He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and He shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness." Malachi 3:2, 3. Those who are living upon the earth when the intercession of Christ shall cease in the sanctuary above are to stand in the sight of a holy God without a mediator. Their robes must be spotless, their characters must be purified from sin by the blood of sprinkling. Through the grace of God and their own diligent effort they must be conquerors in the battle with evil. While the investigative judgment is going forward in heaven, while the sins of penitent believers are being removed from the sanctuary, there is to be a special work of purification, of putting away of sin, among God's people upon earth. This work is more clearly presented in the messages of Revelation 14.
When this work shall have been accomplished, the followers of Christ will be ready for His appearing. "Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in former years.' Malachi 3:4. Then the church which our Lord at His coming is to receive to Himself will be a "glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing." Ephesians 5:27. Then she will look "forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners.' Song of Solomon 6:10".
The Great Controversy page 457:
The history of ancient Israel is a striking illustration of the past experience of the Adventist body. God led His people in the advent movement, even as He led the children of Israel from Egypt. In the great disappointment their faith was tested as was that of the Hebrews at the Red Sea. Had they still trusted to the guiding hand that had been with them in
their past experience, they would have seen the salvation of God. If all who had labored unitedly in the work in 1844, had received the third angel's message and proclaimed it in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord would have wrought mightily with their efforts. A flood of light would have been shed upon the world. Years ago the inhabitants of the earth would have been warned, the closing work completed, and Christ would have come for the redemption of His people".
What went wrong? The Laodicean Church beginning in or about 1859 is precisely where the Seventh-day Adventist Corporate church is now (and why Christ has not returned): this present truth fact is where things went wrong, with the Seventh-day Adventist church acting similar to the World, paralleling the Ancient Israelites who lacked faith (Hebrews 3:16-19). Here is the rebuke:
"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever" (1John 2:15-17).
Fact: Christ will not return for a Church that is "unsealed" and "lukewarm", as His blood will be wasted and His church obviously must be CHARACTER RIPE for the reaper Christ and His Administration, as God presently is seeking to purify His people (Mark 26-29, Revelation 14:14-16, Testimonies for the Church Volume 1 page 186, Early Writings page 36-38):
(Mark 4:26-29):
"And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear. Mar 4:29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come".
(Revelation 14:14-16):
"And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. Rev 14:15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. Rev 14:16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped".
The following is a reference from Manuscript Releases Volume 7 page 125 where Sister White compares the Church of Philadelphia to a TRUE CONVERSION, being similar to Christ in loving care taking off His Divinity to put on Humanity:
"And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: these things saith He that is holy, He that is true, He that hath the key of David, He that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth."--Rev. 3:7, 8.
"Notwithstanding the opposition of the strongest powers of darkness, there is One able to open the door. This is the same door that was opened at the baptism of Christ. After the Saviour had taken the steps in conversion requisite for every sinner to take in order to be saved,--repentance, faith, and baptism,--thus entering into covenant relation with God, He kneeled on the bank of the Jordan and prayed. And the heavens were opened, and the Holy Ghost, in the form of a dove of burnished gold, hovered over the Son of Man, enshrouding Him in light, while a voice from the highest heaven declared, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
Christ laid aside His crown and royal robe, stepped down from His high command, clothed His divinity with humanity, and for our sake became poor, that we through His poverty might inherit the heavenly treasure. He placed Himself at the head of humanity. If we walk in His footsteps, we are accepted by God. By His sacrifice we are "accepted in the Beloved." As the prayers of Christ ascended to His Father, notwithstanding the dark shadow of the powers of darkness through which they passed, so will our prayers cleave through the hellish shadow of Satan and enter the sanctuary above. The same glory which flashed from the threshold of heaven at the time of Christ's baptism, is revealed to every earnest seeker of Christ.--Ms 92, 1901, pp. 5, 6. ("Lessons From the Third of Revelation," Talk, September 5, 1901.)"
Released September 2, 1975.
The following are two more VERY IMPORTANT citations, describing the Church of Philadelphia in its Historic beauty, emerging with truth given by God, as quoted "in full harmony with the scriptures" (Biographical Books Volume 1):
" Inseparably linked with the position held by the pioneers that something of significance had transpired on October 22, 1844, was the understanding that a "door" was shut in connection with the fulfilling of prophecy. The expression is found in the message to the church in Philadelphia as set forth in Revelation 3:7, 8. There is described One who held the "key of David," "he that openeth, and no man shutteth, and shutteth, and no man openeth," the One who declared, "I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it." This message to the Philadelphia church had laid the foundation for rightfully advocating a "shut door" [SEE CHAPTER 16, "THE SHUT AND THE OPEN DOORS."] on October 22, 1844. The full significance of the expression was not immediately understood, but the term early became synonymous with confidence in the fulfillment of prophecy on October 22, and it was so used for about seven years after the 1844 disappointment. It was usually understood to be linked with a close of probation, but for whom?" (Biographical Books Volume 1 page 95 paragraph 6).
"Thus early in the experience of the emerging church, light new to herself and others, yet in full harmony with the Scriptures, was given by the Lord through His chosen messenger. The pioneers were conscious of this; a decade and a half later, when organizing the church, they refrained from the adoption of a creed, which could stand in the way of God giving new light through the visions" (Biographical Books Volume 1 page 100 paragraph 5).
(Early Writings pages 36-38)
"At the commencement of the holy Sabbath, January 5, 1849, we engaged in prayer with Brother Belden's family at Rocky Hill, Connecticut, and the Holy Ghost fell upon us. I was taken off in vision to the most holy place, where I saw Jesus still interceding for Israel. On the bottom of His garment was a bell and a pomegranate. Then I saw that Jesus would not leave the most holy place until every case was decided either for salvation or destruction, and that the wrath of God could not come until Jesus had finished His work in the most holy place, laid off His priestly attire, and clothed Himself with the garments of vengeance. Then Jesus will step out from between the Father and man, and God will keep silence no longer, but pour out His wrath on those who have rejected His truth. I saw that the anger of the nations, the wrath of God, and the time to judge the dead were separate and distinct, one following the other, also that Michael had not stood up, and that the time of trouble, such as never was, had not yet commenced. The nations are now getting angry, but when our High Priest has finished His work in the sanctuary, He will stand up, put on the garments of vengeance, and then the seven last plagues will be poured out.
I saw that the four angels would hold the four winds until Jesus' work was done in the sanctuary, and then will come the seven last plagues. These plagues enraged the wicked against the righteous; they thought that we had brought the judgments of God upon them, and that if they could rid the earth of us, the plagues would then be stayed. A decree went forth to slay the saints, which caused them to cry day and night for deliverance. This was the time of Jacob's trouble. Then all the saints cried out with anguish of spirit, and were delivered by the voice of God. The 144,000 triumphed. Their faces were lighted up with the glory of God. Then I was shown a company who were howling in agony. On their garments was written in large characters, "Thou art weighed in the balance, and found wanting." I asked who this company were. The angel said, "These are they who have once kept the Sabbath and have given it up." I heard them cry with a loud voice, "We have believed in Thy coming, and taught it with energy." And while they were speaking, their eyes would fall upon their garments and see the writing, and then they would wail aloud. I saw that they had drunk of the deep waters, and fouled the residue with their feet--trodden the Sabbath underfoot-- and that was why they were weighed in the balance and found wanting.
Then my attending angel directed me to the city again, where I saw four angels winging their way to the gate of the city. They were just presenting the golden card to the angel at the gate when I saw another angel flying swiftly from the direction of the most excellent glory, and crying with a loud voice to the other angels, and waving something up and down in his hand. I asked my attending angel for an explanation of what I saw. He told me that I could see no more then, but he would shortly show me what those things that I then saw meant.
Sabbath afternoon one of our number was sick, and requested prayers that he might be healed. We all united in applying to the Physician who never lost a case, and while healing power came down, and the sick was healed, the Spirit fell upon me, and I was taken off in vision.
I saw four angels who had a work to do on the earth, and were on their way to accomplish it. Jesus was clothed with priestly garments. He gazed in pity on the remnant, then raised His hands, and with a voice of deep pity cried, "My blood, Father, My blood, My blood, My blood!" Then I saw an exceeding bright light come from God, who sat upon the great white throne, and was shed all about Jesus. Then I saw an angel with a commission from Jesus, swiftly flying to the four angels who had a work to do on the earth, and waving something up and down in his hand, and crying with a loud voice, "Hold! Hold! Hold! Hold! until the servants of God are sealed in their foreheads."
(Testimonies for the Church volume 1 page 186):
"I was shown that the testimony to the Laodiceans applies to God's people at the present time, and the reason it has not accomplished a greater work is because of the hardness of their hearts. But God has given the message time to do its work. The heart must be purified from sins which have so long shut out Jesus. This fearful message will do its work. When it was first presented, it led to close examination of heart. Sins were confessed, and the people of God were stirred everywhere. Nearly all believed that this message would end in the loud cry of the third angel. But as they failed to see the powerful work accomplished in a short time, many lost the effect of the message. I saw that this message would not accomplish its work in a few short months. It is designed to arouse the people of God, to discover to them their backslidings, and to lead to zealous repentance, that they may be favored with the presence of Jesus, and be fitted for the loud cry of the third angel. As this message affected the heart, it led to deep humility before God. Angels were sent in every direction to prepare unbelieving hearts for the truth. The cause of God began to rise, and His people were acquainted with their position. If the counsel of the True Witness had been fully heeded, God would have wrought for His people in greater power. Yet the efforts made since the message has been given, have been blessed of God, and many souls have been brought from error and darkness to rejoice in the truth.
God will prove His people. Jesus bears patiently with them, and does not spew them out of His mouth in a moment. Said the angel: "God is weighing His people." If the message had been of as short duration as many of us supposed, there would have been no time for them to develop character. Many moved from feeling, not from principle and faith, and this solemn, fearful message stirred them. It wrought upon their feelings, and excited their fears, but did not accomplish the work which God designed that it should. God reads the heart. Lest His people should be deceived in regard to themselves, He gives them time for the excitement to wear off, and then proves them to see if they will obey the counsel of the True Witness".
"All of God's work requires His Eternal Power. Overcomers must receive and possess the Gospel of Christ. In 1859, Seventh-day Adventism lost possession of God's full power, becoming Lukewarm (Testimonies for the Church Volume 1 page 186).Thankfully, God's divine empowered latter rain was provided in1888 by way of Elders Jones and Waggoner's Justification by Faith message, the loud cry of the third angel's message (Review and Herald November 22, 1892, April 1st 1890; Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers pages 91-92). More recently, the Gospel of Christ was brought to the people of God, assisting with the completion of God's final chore, the vindication of the character of God, exposing Satan as a liar, deceiver and murderer(John 8:44, 1John 3:8, Revelation 12:9). John 15:1 edifies that one must maintain an abiding relationship with Christ, our Redeemer; as it provides a connection to our adorable Godhead, containing eternal power, love, wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption, (Deuteronomy 6:4, Proverbs 8:22-36, John1:1-3,14, Romans 1:20, 5:5, 1Corinthians 1:24, 30, 31)" (A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 42).
"The work, a responsibility of God's people, emphasizes the importance of teaching the Gospel message, requiring the full cooperation of His last day brotherly, loving Church, "Philadelphia" or "True Adventism" (Ephesians 4:12-13, Revelation3:7-13). True Adventism is the Church of Philadelphia, repentant in nature, preparing for redemption and translation from present earth (1Corinthians 15:50-53, 1Thessalonians 4:16-18). Thus mankind must appreciate the calling of God, as they are called to experience, live and remain in full submission to the will of God unto complete sealing, bringing this great controversy to an end (Ephesians 4:30).Without the remnant's cooperation, God can not finish this work. Thus, God's remnant, 144,000 in number, must respond to His calling, appreciating and completing this final chore" (A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 76).
Overcomers in these end times will be fueled by the Holy Spirit's early and latter rain, bringing God's harvest to the "measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ", "the full corn in the ear" (Jeremiah 5:24, Zechariah 10:1, Mark 4:28, Ephesians4:13, James 5:7). The focus must remain on the manifestation of the fruit of the Holy Spirit, as God's chosen "take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God" (Galatians 5:22-23, Ephesians 6:17).
The church of Philadelphia is true Adventism. (Revelation 3:7-13). As Overcomers prepare for the latter rain, embracing the return of Christ, they additionally must focus on becoming harvest ripe; and perfecting characters.
Harvest ripe by biblical definition entails a process of establishing... "first the blade, then the ear, after that that the full corn in the ear" (Mark 4:26-29). "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord (Acts 3:19). Once the remnant's characters have become completely converted and faultless, they have reached the stage of "the ear" of corn, poised for the showers of the spiritually enriching latter rain (Hosea 6:3, Joel 2:23, Zechariah 10:1, James 5:7) [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection pages 80-90].

Hello perkies!
Today I am going to share with you a supplement that I incorporated into my diet: vegan protein. I have been eating more vegan foods in the last month, having at least 3 vegan meals per week and I wanted to give a try for vegan supplements too. There are plenty of options of plant-base protein powders on the market, like soy protein, rice protein, hemp protein and pea protein, which are great options for a vegan diet.
Nutrition: Vitamins and Minerals
I am having vegan protein powder from MissFits Nutrition in a chocolate flavour, it is made from pea protein isolate. What I most like of MissFits Nutrition protein powder: it is high in protein, low in carbs and fats. As it is isolated, it is a lean pea protein and it helps you boost up with vitamin B12 and Zinc, which has 25% daily intake of each in one serving. I found it great because many vegans lack of vitamin B12, as is naturally found in animal products, including dairy, eggs, meat, fish and poultry and it is generally not present in plant foods. The key role of Vitamin B12 is the functioning of the brain and nervous system via the synthesis of myelin and the formation of red blood cells, it is very important to have Vitamin B12 in your diet and give it more attention especially if you are on a vegan diet to make sure you don't lack it. The other mineral contained in this powder is the Zinc, which its highest sources levels are found mainly in foods high in protein – especially animal proteins like meat, seafood or dairy. Zinc is important in your diet as it may reduce the risk of inflammatory diseases and it has a significant role in the immune function, according to researchers.
The taste: Chocolate flavour
I had tried the protein with water, almond milk and coconut milk. After my workout I normally have it with water as it is better for absorption. For my shakes in the morning, I had few times with almond milk and other with coconut milk, depending if I am mixing it with fruits – I love the coconut and chocolate taste together! I am having the Multitasker chocolate flavour, as it has no sugar added, it has a soft chocolate taste and I found it great, I got used to not have sugar in my drinks so for me it is great!
Vegan or not, you will enjoy having MissFits vegan protein in your diet – it is great to have after your workout, as a high protein snack in the morning or afternoon and also to incorporate in your vegan recipes.

I really don't see anything simple about the box. These are deceptive in appearance. The construction of these is anything but simple. This is a very nice box and you did a good job with the mahogany. I have no doubt that it was well received.

Certificate program to offer best practices on using social media tools effectively
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 1, 2015) - Hootsuite, the most widely used platform for managing social media, and Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media (MCCSM), today announced an industry-leading social media credential for medical and health care professionals. This joint initiative is being launched at the first international Health Care and Social Media Summit presented by Mayo Clinic in Brisbane Australia, September 1-2.
Social media has become a vital communications tool in the health care industry. More than 40 percent of consumers say that information on social media affects the way they deal with their health and another 41 percent of people said social media would affect their choice of doctor, hospital or medical facility. The training program developed by Hootsuite and Mayo Clinic will teach medical and health care communications professionals how to effectively use social media technologies within the health care industry.
"It's important for physicians and other health care professionals to understand how online social networks matter to them," says Farris Timimi, M.D., a Mayo Clinic cardiologist and medical director for MCCSM. "Even if they're not yet active online - or maybe even particularly if they're not involved - what others say about them affects their practices."
"This certificate program will help providers develop practical competency in social media to help influence their online reputations, and will help them begin to see ways they can use these tools to improve their delivery of care and the patient experience," adds Dr. Timimi.
To meet the demands of today's fast-paced health care professional, students can take the course through a web-based format or from a fully optimized mobile experience. The course is offered online through an elearning development agency. Among other things, students in this course will learn:
"Social media can have massive impact on health care -- it can help promote health, educate people, advance science and connect health care providers with patients. Hootsuite has always championed social media education and this course will make it easy for professionals in the health care industry to learn how to connect with their audience and amplify their messages on social in an effective way," says Greg Gunn, vice president of new product growth at Hootsuite.
Continuing medical education credits for this course will be available to physicians and other health care professionals through Mayo Clinic's School of Continuous Professional Development.

I decided to try a new shampoo and conditioner last time I was at the hair salon: Hydrate Me Rinse and Hydrate Me Wash both by Kevin Murphy and are kaka du plum infused. Both came in 250 mL bottles that lasted a little longer than a month.
Hydrate Me Wash is for normal to dry hair and creates a " silky" feeling in your hair and hair that is "sensual to the touch." It is a E A moisturizing shampoo and I was quite pleased with how the shampoo worked. It created a good lather and left my hair feeling squeaky clean. It did not take too much shampoo per use, maybe about a quarter size, and it lasted slightly longer than the conditioner. The one thing I did not like about the shampoo is that it had a slightly chemically smell and I prefer my shampoo to smell good such as apple or just good old clean shampoo scent.
Hydrate me Rinse is an E A moisturizing conditioner that "hydrates" and "infuses" hair with "moisture and gloss." It is also for normal to dry hair. Although the conditioner too was slightly chemically, it was nice and thick something I love to see in a hydrating shampoo because I know it will work well and soak into the strands of your hair fantastically. I was not disappointed. This conditioner is super moisturizing but it did take quite a bit of conditioner per use to put in your hair, about a tablespoon. Because of this fact, it used up slightly faster then the shampoo.
All in all, both were excellent products from the hair salon and my only complaint is the chemically smell, but this was not bad enough for me not to use them or try them again. They were a bit pricey at about $30.00 for each 250 mL bottle so I think it's more the kind of shampoo and conditioner you use only a couple of times a week along with something else.

- VBS Mutual Bank has been accused of dipping into the bank clients' money to fund their luxury lifestyles
- Venda King Toni Ramabulana has been linked to these accusations
- Directors of VBS has gifted the king with a herd of cattle to apologise for the embarrassment to him and his family
PAY ATTENTION: Click "See First" under the "Following" tab to see Briefly.co.za News on your News Feed!
The VBS Mutual bank has been making negative headlines for a while now, and it doesn't seem to be anywhere near done.
Directors of VBS gave Venda King Toni Ramabulana a herd of cattle. Apparently, it was chosen to serve as an apology for embarrassing the King and his family.
The King's name was linked to the recent problems VBS has been experiencing.

Vele Investments wishes to formally apologise to the king and his royal family and the entire VhaVenda nation for what they are going through as a result of the negative publicity.
The Sunday Times reports that the king's office stated he is not a businessman and that he would not refuse gifts from his subjects. The king would not ask where the gifts come from either.
Briefly.co.za reported earlier that of the R1.5 billion that VBS is accused of using, a large part of this money went to funding the luxurious lifestyles of Vhavenda King Toni Mphephu Ramabulana and other executives.
The R1.5 billion was municipal money invested in the bank - now it's gone. Some of the expenses covered for by VBS bank include expensive shopping sprees, private helicopters, loans, and many luxury cars.
