14 Sep Do Not Be Stumbled By Your Needs But Be Blessed Through Them
We humans have many needs. Whether it is spiritual or carnal needs, we all hope to receive contentment. Some people in particular need to understand, hope to know and learn more. Others have more emotional needs, in that they enjoy socialising and often need people to listen to them. There are also people who yearn for material needs (basic needs).
In reality, we humans experience the agony when we are in need or when our needs are not satisfied. Some of our needs stem from our sinful nature, but sometimes are also due to our human nature. Our sinful nature cause us to want more out of fear or greed. However, there are also real needs and the need to receive contentment due to our human nature in reality. When a sick person wishes to have good health, or a single wants to get married, or a married couple wants to have children, or a person living in fear wants to receive peace etc., it is from reasonable human nature within them.
Actually, the needs of humans reveal that they are created by a Giver and they need Him. When people keep wandering because of their own needs, it shows that they need that Giver and that Giver is none other than God Himself. He created humans and wants to be their provider and source of contentment at any time. Only God has no needs because He is who He is, He will not be consumed. However, as a created being, we all have needs. The important thing is, when we are in need, we must know how to be contented. Some people misunderstand that as long as a person is spiritual, he will no longer have any real need. Not only is this wrong, it also twists the human nature in a spiritual person.
Actually, the needs of humans reveal that they are created by a Giver and they need Him.
A spiritual person also has needs, but he knows how to receive contentment from God and not try to find satisfaction using his own means. A spiritual person knows how to enjoy what God has given and does not end up in a situation where he is controlled by needs or experience great lack. David said, "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not be in want." He practically enjoyed the green pastures and quiet waters given to him by God <Ps 23:1-2>. Paul also declared, "And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus." <Php 4:19> Truly, a spiritual person knows what he needs and also needs how God satisfies him. And each time he testifies God's providence, the more his spirit is able to see the glorious riches of God. It is only when a person can often see God's glory, he can naturally and often experience the satisfaction of God in his needs. Think about this, are our lives often in a state where we often cannot see the glorious riches of God? Whether it is spiritual or carnal, have we experienced contentment in God? Do we often harbour thoughts that "God does not satisfy but only request from me"? If it is so, we will gradually discover that our faith is weary and burdensome. In reality, there are believers who often serve God but they do not have grace in their heart and are not joyful. Their misunderstanding towards God (Provider) and the lack of experience with Him caused them to be less blessed, the more they serve. Not only do they give themselves pressure, they also give pressure to those around them. With long period of living under such pressure and not having joy, some believers seek other forms of contentment and gradually fall into temptations and give in to the desires of their flesh. Some even end up turning their ears away from the Truth and turn aside to myths <2Ti 4:4>. They use the word of God to seek carnal satisfaction and ends up in a faith that does not carry the Cross. As these people received an incorrect spirit, they live in delusion and believe that they will receive from God whatever they believe or desire. In reality, such misunderstanding in the gospel bring us to another extreme. Some people stumble because of their needs. What they believe and pursue is unable to glorify the God who satisfy our hearts and body. It is stated in <Ro 8:32>, "He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, graciously gives us all things?" Hence, God not only give us His only Son, He also promised to give us all things and satisfy our practical needs. We must be cautious not to fall because of our needs but be blessed through them. This is because God is one who satisfies our needs and as a result He receives all the glory. However, our sinful nature easily causes us to become weak because of our needs, to the extent that we receive contentment through our own will. Therefore, we must learn how to receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit to receive contentment from God's abundance.
Our misunderstanding towards God is the main reason why our needs cannot be satisfied.
Man's disbelief causes Him to be bonded by various types of lack.
After Man has sinned and fallen, his environment immediately becomes one that is of lack, where he definitely has to work hard to live, and eventually his end is dust (death) <Ge 3:17-19>. When Man lives in such a destiny and belief, his heart and spirit has a type of absolute lack. This is Man's state after he has sinned and cannot see God, thus losing his eternal spiritual life. Therefore, there is a spiritual background hidden behind Man, when he cannot receive satisfaction in his various needs. Man cannot see his Provider and hence opposes Him, he is driven by "self-survival", living a life of fear and lack. He does not know his real needs; the purpose of his living is to receive more, rather than to live by seeing His provider. So, in this world, many people say they have needs, most of which are a result of fear and greed. Therefore, Paul said that if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that <1Ti 6:8>. In reality, what we have now is much more than just food and clothing.
When we are weak in faith, and do not see the value of eternal life, our heart and spirit fall into a state of discontentment and lack.
From such a principle, we believers need to reflect on our current needs and feelings of lack. In Christ, we are already reconciled with God. However, there are often many thoughts and beliefs showing that we have not reconciled with God, especially in this area of "need". When we are weak in faith, and do not see the value of eternal life, our heart and spirit fall into a state of discontentment and lack. In the midst, Man's heart often harbour thoughts like, "God will not satisfy my needs, God only requests my submission." In fact, when our hearts have such misunderstanding towards God, we end up in a state of greater lack, to the extent that we think we will not receive satisfaction in our lifetime, rendering us helpless. Many times in reality, our real needs are not money, work, spouse, etc but when we have an incorrect understanding of God, our Provider, our needs get distorted, we cannot enjoy what we current have, and we cannot experience the help and support of the Holy Spirit in the process.
Know God as a Giver and not One in need
<Ac 17:24-25> The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything. Rather, He Himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. When Paul was sharing the gospel in Athens, he saw many idols, and even worship "the unknown god". In fact, people created their own idols because of their own needs. They think that someone more powerful than them can help them achieve what they want. But Paul gave the people there the concept of God, and let them know that God is the One who created all things, and cannot be served with human hands. Therefore, when we worship and serve God, do not think that God needs our help to build the church, counsel people, do His works etc. When people serve with the wrong beliefs, the more they serve, the less blessed they become. Some believers even think that they miss the opportunities of being promoted or getting married because of the many ministries that they are serving in. The more they have such beliefs, the more they cannot see how God satisfies their needs. This is because our spirit is connected to the spiritual realm. To enjoy God's blessings, we must first restore the truth from the word of God. <Php 4:19> God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. Here, it talks about God's glorious riches will meet all our needs, but meeting our needs does not mean that we will not encounter situations of lack because Paul in the earlier verses said that he knew what it was to be in need, whether hungry or in want etc. At such times, God has added grace to satisfy his heart, giving him faith to go through difficulties. If we go through this with the Lord, we definitely will not see the Lord prolonging our lack.
When people serve with the wrong beliefs, the more they serve, the less blessed they become.
God wants us to serve Him so that we can experience His service
* <Mk 10:45>: For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and give His life as a ransom for many; <1Pe 4;11>… If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.
* Maybe we may find these words contradictory because people whom we serve tend to have needs. But God never asks us to serve because there is a need; instead He comes to serve us. Then, why does He need us to serve? Because through our serving, He wants us to experience the power of Him serving us, and we participate in His glory. Realistically, many people who serve in Church do not have this understanding. Many of them may be enduring the workload in their serving or they grumble. Many believers are also filled with bitterness and are unable to give thanks when they serve their own family members. But having read the scripture, the Lord wants to point our heart and thoughts to the truth, and practically experience strength in our serving. Therefore, the less you serve, the less strength you receive; the more you serve, the more grace, wisdom and strength you receive etc. We really have many needs (e.g. the joy of our heart and spirit, healthy body, building relationship) which are received in the midst of serving. Hence, in our serving, it is totally different if we rely on the Holy Spirit and when we rely on our own body to serve.
Do not stumble because of your needs but be blessed through them.
What does it tell us, when we feel that we are in need?
* God created Man with desires and because of these desires, we will feel the need at times or in certain situations. This includes the desire to eat, sleep, have sex, knowledge, fulfilment, entertainment and fun, to be heard, to survive etc. The intensity of these needs varies across different people but these desires (needs) are intrinsically placed in the lives of Man when God created Man, and how God wants us to be satisfied through them. Therefore, if we do not understand these desires and only live a life reading the Bible and of prayer, such a life may not have been God's perfect will. Actually, at times, God tells us to seek areas of satisfaction through these needs. For instance, we eat when we are hungry, sleep when we are tired, desire intimacy with our spouse by being satisfied through sexual love, see the doctor when we are sick, relax when we are too stressed. All these are permitted by God and He wants us to be satisfied and joyful in Him. If not, our heart, spirit and body may suffer as a result, or causes our emotions to be imbalanced. However, having said all these, we must also know that because of Man's fallen sinful nature, our desires may also be influenced by the fallen nature, such that we may even have extensive or unreasonable needs. For example, some people are gluttons, some have too strong sexual desires such that the spouse may suffer, some people over-indulge in entertainment and do not have the heart to do serious work. Therefore, if people do not understand how to live by the Holy Spirit, they tend to gratify the desires of their flesh. Hence, if a person is not clear on how to often receive the conviction or guidance of the Holy Spirit through the truth, he easily believes his needs are God's perfect will. Therefore, many people come or leave Church because of their needs.
What does it tell us, when we feel that our needs are not met timely?
At times when our heart and body feel the need, but the situation or environment does now allow us to receive immediate satisfaction (in other words, when God does not immediately satisfy us based on what we feel we need), we must first:
- Come before the Giver because of our need. This is because it is only through the Lord who created our body, heart and spirit who through His ways and power satisfy us at that moment in time.
- Our heart and spirit has to be guided and taught by the word of life. David said, You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand <Ps16:11>. When a person is guided by the truth and assured by the promise, he will experience a different form of satisfaction in his need. It could be a new perspective on how he sees his inadequacy or he experiences God's satisfaction in other areas. This satisfaction is received when our hearts and thoughts are being guided by the truth.
When a person is guided by the truth and assured by the promise, he will experience a different form of satisfaction in his need.
- We must truly hear the greater fulfilment God has prepared for us. This is like Hannah, being barren, was in anguish and grief by her rival. She poured out her soul to the Lord, and realise that God's will to bless Israel, and hence she prayed to God for a son, who will become a Nazarite, set apart for the Lord. Sometimes, in our desperate need, if we dedicate ourselves to seek God, we will experience God's will immediately. If we continue to lament because our needs are not satisfied, our suffering will only increase.
- We must recognise the importance of the support of brethren. Actually, what people need most in all their needs, is love, whether they are spiritual or otherwise. When a person is truly being loved, the multiple needs in them naturally become less intense. Many people walk out of a sinful and wicked life because of love. When ex-prisoners are being accepted, they repent and change. When children who had been led astray are being understood, they turn over a new leaf. They are all transformed because of love. Therefore, one must desire to pursue brethren living, and one must grow daily, to love one another. Hence, when we have some needs that have yet to receive satisfaction, we must receive comfort from brethren living. When there is love in brethren living, the Holy Spirit will satisfy our hearts, just like the Church of Philippi who gave Paul immense satisfaction and joy while he was imprisoned, through their donations given out of love.
When various needs come into our mind, we must first ask ourselves some important problems.
- Try asking: Is this what I really need? If I receive it, will it be beneficial to me? Or is this caused by the lust of the eyes? Confirm it continuously before God.
- If one really has that need, how does one receive satisfaction? How should we pray (Refer to the prayer of Hannah)? How do we wait? How do we in the process rely on the Lord?
- Confirm how one's heart and spirit is changed while waiting? Am I more able to grasp the will of the Lord, such that what I think and feel is consistent with that of the Lord?
- After I have found satisfaction in the Lord, do I place less value on things that are temporal? Whether it is educational status, work, marriage, children, health, etc, these are all temporal. Many people are in sorrows daily because of these and when they receive them, they are being bonded. But if we receive these good things through the Lord, do we all the more allow all that we have to be used by the Lord?
Man's greatest need is to be forgiven <Mk 2:15-17>.
In the four gospel books, we see many people seeking Jesus because of their needs. After some of these people receive satisfaction in their needs, they no longer follow Jesus <Lu 17:17-19>. Or some people are self-satisfied and do not feel that they need anything. These people are so small to think that they can be self-satisfied <Mk 2;17>.
In reality, it is not that they do not have needs but they do not see that they are in a situation of great lack, just as the Lord said in <Re 3:17> they do not realise that they are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. They are completely deceived and receive joy through temporal satisfaction. But the Lord said, Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled <Mt 5:6>.
It is when we accept God's grace and be forgiven of our sins, then will we start to see and enjoy all of God's blessings.
Factually, those who need the doctor will be healed, those who need the Saviour will be saved. Some of us may have come to the Church because of our needs. But Man's most serious problem is the judgment and punishment of sin that remains in him, and sin brings about all types of lack in a person. Therefore, when the Lord satisfies our needs, He absolutely first gives us the grace of forgiveness of sin. It is when we accept God's grace and be forgiven of our sins, then will we start to see and enjoy all of God's blessings.
Today, let us clearly know what our real needs are, and come before the Giver with our needs. Perhaps our problem is not limited to what we currently need but our lives are distant from God and live our own lives. Let us repent from our stubbornness today, receive God's mercy and see that apart from God, we have no good thing <Ps 16:2>.

The San Antonio Museum of Art has enjoyed steady growth over the last few decades, and its latest move may be one of the boldest yet. The decision was made (and funding was found) to hire not only one, but two new curators. William Keyse Rudolph is the new curator of American Art and Chief Curator of Collections, and the very personable Merribell Parsons is the new curator of European Art.
And to kick off this new era at SAMA, Rudolph is curator of the latest exhibit, Thomas Sully: Painted Perfection. And this is surprisingly good — every art aficionado should check it out. Sully's work is amazing on so many levels: detail, use of light, as well as composition. Plan on spending a considerable amount of time admiring and studying his paintings. Yes, he was that good.
This exhibit was originally shown at the Milwaukee Museum of Art, where Rudolph was previously curator. Given its quality, it's an auspicious sign that Rudolph's tenure at SAMA will be a great one. Here in San Antonio, he oversees a sizable existing collection. Parsons, on the other hand, is dealing with a smaller collection, which will hopefully be enhanced through loaned or gifted items, and acquisitions.
Of course, every art exhibit is worthy of an opening reception. And as usual, SAMA hosted a first-class gathering. Music was provided by a chamber ensemble from the San Antonio Symphony. The feature instrument was the newly-refurbished and repurchased Steinway grand piano that previously and once again will grace the lobby of the St. Anthony Hotel, which is currently under renovation. This piano is dream for any lover of all things baroque. For the time being, it graces the lobby of SAMA, and you can check it out on the way to the Sully exhibit.
And while you're there, be sure to check out the amazing montage of Andy Warhol paintings of 1970's sports superstars currently on display in the lobby. And while you're there, you can use your smartphone to listen to Warhol being interviewed in 1978 by David S. Rubin, who is currently SAMA Curator of Contemporary Art.
Thomas Sully: Painted Performance is on display through May 11. It's definitely worth checking out. And for those of you who are on a budget, SAMA has free admission on Tuesdays from 4-9 pm, and Sundays from 10 am until noon.

Grey may be the hippest weapon of choice when it comes to decor but, as Colin and Justin prove, the cool palette needs a shot of high impact colour to properly bring it alive...
Decoratively speaking, we can fix anything; it really is as simple as that. Give us your neediest rooms and we'll run at them, with gusto, transforming chicken poo into designer chicken pie at every single turn.
Take this week's designer affront, a serious style offender. And be under no illusion; the hellish kit witnessed in our 'before' shot wasn't cheap; the sofa, alone cost several thousand bucks. And as for that Jurassic-sized TV? Let's not even go there.
Practical crit' aside, righting wrongs during this project was a pleasure. Here's how, like heat seeking missiles in sling backs, we jiggled and wiggled our way through an undeniably gloomy living room... to end up in a beautiful world where the sun always shines.
To fail to plan is to plan to fail
Ahead of any project, heed our maxim. We bring it out during private client adventures and in the jolly, oft-crazy land of TV. Consider daylight, footprint, budget and materials. Tip: having a contingency of around 10 per cent is wise, as costs generally escalate; the last thing you need is funding shortfall prior to completion. Assembling a mood board makes sound sense too; scan magazines, clip pictures from brochures then arrange and compare loads of samples before flexing your credit card. Consider paint colours, in situ, and analyze these under natural and electric light; you'll be amazed how shades appear to change as the clock ticks.
Simple whisper grey, as a cool background for -- limited -- drama elsewhere. Always remember the three Ps; Preparation, Preparation and, erm, Preparation. Smoothing wall surfaces ahead of painting will increase the professional feel of your project. Also remember to avoid paint with sheen if you have stubborn surface imperfections; matte paint will help disguise minor bumps. Shine, on the other hand, will only serve to highlight irregularities. As far as colour is concerned, we find it better, generally, to avoid making schemes too complex by interfacing opposing primary colours. Better to anchor everything with a first choice bold tone, then control everything else thereafter. Cool soft greys and "default mechanism" whites are no-nonsense foils for big, overt decorating decisions like this primary yellow accent.
As this room connects to a nearby kitchen, we used the same flooring in both zones to increase the feeling of flow and make each seem larger. This practice also avoids threshold bars which are a total red flag for us. Warm underfoot and resilient to scuffs and wear, our lacquered honey-toned lumber adds visual warmth to what is essentially, short of the sofa and artwork, a monochromatic scheme. Tip: invest in permanent features such as flooring that will remain perfect for years to come. These 'big buy' items should be relatively neutral so that subsequent schemes can be arranged without clashing or fussing.
Window Dressing
To evoke the dreamy feel of New England shutters (without the associated spend) we opted for Venetian wood-look blinds in a crisp, white finish. For similar product, try Rona who carry blinds in a host of sizes and colours to suit your scheme. Tip: when measuring blinds, always size into the window 'rebate' for a streamlined look; blinds out with this aperture are more likely to blow in the wind and look untidy.
Yup, it's yellow. And why not? For too long our world has languished in "greige" (grey and beige) mediocrity, but we love battling this decorative fatigue. After assessing proportions, we specified fabric, sketched a simple L-shaped design and set our trusty upholsterer the task of creating this comfy lovely. Perhaps rather surprisingly, custom work is often around the same price as off-the-shelf kit. Plus, you get to tailor ideals to your own space. Tip: by following the custom route you can choose the type of filling that's inserted within cushions; we find that foam, wrapped in feather, is a perfect comfy combo but speak to your upholsterer to work out what's best for you.
Rock Wall
Hanging on pre-fixed batons, this tactile treat is a dramatic cornerstone in an exciting and thoroughly re-branded space. What's more, it's available in a host of gorgeous looks to suit each project. In previous work we've used softer colours and creamy terracotta shades but, to add drama, this grey solution was perfect.
TV and Fireplace
If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing properly. This in mind, we abandoned our initial labour-saving plan of hanging the new TV and fireplace on top of our stone wall. Instead, as floor space was adequate, we instructed our contractor to build a framework into which we "bedded" new appliances. Supervised by a C 'n' J squat team of professional electricians and carpenters, we were able to adequately meet safety requirements and avoid any heat build up from either item. Tip: wherever electricity or ventilation are concerned, never cut corners. Seek professional advice and study manufacturers' guidelines to the letter.
An overhead spread of pot lights helped brighten proceedings, while a directional lamp added an extra jolt of design integrity. The light was inspired by the classic "Arco" lamp, one of which recently sold at a British auction for $3,000. This one was a whole load cheaper -- just $388! A bargain, if ever there was, and one with seriously cool lines to boot. Tip: check on line auction or shopping sites such as Ebay and Craigslist; you'll be amazed at what you'll find.
Suitably illuminated, you've now no reason to languish in a benign sea of greige. Whether the mercury's journey is vertiginous or whether it slips south, be assured that new heights of jaunty décor can be attained courtesy of our considered counsel. Hey, the summer continues here!

Why participate in our selection processes?
Héctor Guillermo Quiñónez
Member of the Board of Directors of the Clinic of Meta
The fact that the Head Hunter is specialized in a specific sector accelerates and refines the resource selection. Besides, the Head Hunter as well as the client have a better understanding of the needs, since they communicate in a common language. The Head Hunter becomes an advisor that can generate added value through advice about adequate profiles and structures, and which in regard to the conditions from the point of view of the market, make sense in the searching process.
Fernando Otoya
CEO Siesa
IT Hunters supported us when SIESA started a recruitment process searching for a Commercial Vice-president; in a very short period of time we found our ideal candidate; the process was fast, efficient and confidential. At all times there was very close accompanying, showing a high level of professionalism, commitment and efficacy. After one year of working with the selected Commercial Vice-president, we are happy and convinced that the decision taken was the right one.
Nelson Bendeck Ahumada
My experience with IT Hunters was very productive, given the fact that despite I didn't obtained the vacant position, it helped me to visualize my professional career in a better way and to visualize new horizons that I didn't saw before.
Hugo Alberto Abril Riaño
Human Resources Manager of Getronics Colombia Ltd
The interview by competences allows me to identify the gaps between the competences defined for the role and the competences of the candidates, with the purpose of making the best decision.
Belmer Corrales
My participation in a process with IT Hunters, besides selecting a specific profile for the needs of a client, gave me the tranquility that with their knowledge of the market I was going to be employed by a company for which my skills add value and which will supplement my personal life.
Miguel Ángel Zarzar
General Manager of Telectronic
The speed in the time it took to understand our needs, knowledge of the IT industry, personalized attention and adequate information were important to find what we were looking for.
Juan David Correa Gregory
When you are thinking in taking on new challenges in your professional life, new challenges, and somehow re-inventing you, perhaps the most complex part in this process is to find a " trusted advisor ", that understands you, and makes you see your strengths and weaknesses, which will guide you in difficult times and at the same time makes the "perfect match" with what your customer is looking for in an executive. I was able to see for myself all this dynamic and guidance when IT Hunters and Carolina Toro accompanied me in this stage of change. I am very thankful for having a "trusted advisor" as Carolina.

We're spending the majority of this week in Savannah, Georgia at The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa for another Million Miler celebration. It's hot and humid here, so I'm not anticipating leaving the building but who knows, I might surprise myself and venture out for shopping or photographing. Savannah has great spots for both.
Ed got his award back in 2014, but as a million miler, he's eligible to the event every year, wherever it's being held.
We currently have a golf course view (see above) from the 16th floor of the building, which is also the top floor. In a few days, we'll be back in a river view room, which I prefer, which will give us a great view of the fireworks display on the fourth.

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Sirloin Burger Restaurant Review: Not much to look at, and in a somewhat careworn neighborhood, Sirloin Burger has since the 1950s been quietly serving some of the juiciest, messiest, most flavorful burgers in town. One of the secrets behind their successful specialty is the fact that they grind their own meat daily on the premises, also using it in a spaghetti sauce that has fans among some regulars. But we always go for their generous double burgers, two patties sizzled on a griddle, topped with griddle-fried chopped onions (we always ask for extra), slathered with Thousand Island dressing and served on a soft bun that grows gloriously soggy with all those juices. Along with each burger, they also slip into its grease-paper envelope a crisp, garlicky dill pickle spear worthy of an authentic deli, and we routinely ask for extra. Add a big tangle of fries and a soft drink and you have a satisfying fast lunch (even if you take your lunch at 9 a.m., when they open), a fact that has led to our seeing an eclectic array of folks standing in line here, from day laborers to Hollywood shakers, young families to an entire National Guard platoon. While you wait for your order, try to decipher the arcane order-taking system, which involves small ceramic tiles.

Whitewater family adventures begin with the perfect river, an oar-rigged raft, paddle raft or inflatable whitewater kayaks and offer the chance to paddle like crazy then share the glide with your kids.
River rafting with kids has its benefits. Not connected to an electronic tether is the most obvious but that aside, the adrenaline infused quality family time, positive river energy and natural thrills cannot be beat to say nothing about years of bragging rights and awesome memories.
I think whitewater rafting is one of the best family adventures possible because as your kids age the whitewater only gets better. Lazy river floats with your six year-old have the potential to evolve to challenging whitewater runs with a 16 year-old. For our family, river time is still the very best time.
North American river destinations span the continent from North Carolina, West Virginia and Tennessee to California, Idaho, and the Rockies. ACE Adventure Resort runs the New River as well as the Gauley providing exceptional river thrills for all ages including river surfing. Eco Family Adventures runs multi-day trips on the Grand Salmon River and Middle Fork of the Salmon in Idaho offering rugged and wild, yet safe family adventures complete with an activity director for children to augment time off the river.
With river trips not unlike anything worth doing the sooner you decide and confirm the more likely you will get exactly what fits for your family and perhaps save money. More river possibilities may be found in the Adventure folder at the Family Travel Files

I was asked to describe how I created the world of "The Shadow of Black Wings". The setting in my books is always one of the main characters, so this task is close to my heart.
The world in "The Shadow…" is an alternative version of history, set in an equivalent of the middle of our 19th century. I chose that period because of the story I wanted to tell – the end of Shogunate in Japan, and opening of this country to the West. Once the date was set, one thing was obvious: middle of 19th century must have some Steampunk in it. It would have been a wasted opportunity otherwise.
So I had steam, Japan, Victorian England (where the main hero comes from) – and Dragons, simply because there have to be dragons. That was the base for building the world.
1. The Differences
Although having dragons and steam powered flying machines may seem like the main difference between our world and that of the book, to me as the world builder there were two other decisions which made the world really stand out from the beginning: 1) the Roman Empire still exists and 2) Christianity and Islam have never developed.
Neither of these is very visible to the reader at first. There are vague mentions of Rome and its strange religion, but these facts don't seem that important in the story. However, in terms of world-building, the difference is fundamental.
Although perhaps not as fundamental as the fact that there is magic.
2. History
Writing down the history of a fictional world is what I like doing best. If I could get paid for that, it would have been my dream job. Over the years, I created dozens of such histories, vast majority of them confined to the desk drawers and, later, forgotten folders on my PC.
It was the same in this case. I started with the two above assumptions, and a few starting conditions, and went on from there.
You can read a simplified timeline on my website. If you know your history, you will notice that, in places, my version matches our world pretty closely. This was deliberate; I needed my world to have a vaguely familiar feeling, with just enough difference to make it fun to read (and write).
Since I was writing an alternative history, and could do pretty much what I wanted, I used it extensively to change it "for the better" from the point of view of the story. Though real history is fun as it is, I could've made it even more fun by righting a few historical "wrongs". A Scandinavian-speaking elite in Russia? The English winning the battle of Hastings? Independent Wales? All these things can be real in an alternate history book – as long as the rest of the story is internally consistent.
3. Dragons
Every writer who puts dragons into our world should ask themselves a question: how would the existence of the beasts change the course of history? If dragons were bred by humans, how would they develop? Where do the dragons come from, and why are they in different colours?
Writing down the dragon lore was another bit of world building I did in spare time. Some of it can be seen on my website – and I hope to one day publish an encyclopaedia of my dragons, time permitting. I had to create different breeds and races for the book, and once I started explaining why there were so many and what they were used for, more pieces of world-building puzzle started falling into place.
4. Map and place-names.
Since my world is just a slightly different version of ours, most of the places exist in both universes. Changing the place names to fit the history and the general feel of the story was one of the first thing I did prior to writing: I actually had a table of substitutions made, to make sure I don't mix up my Huatings and my Fan Yus.
The place names are mostly authentic historical names for the cities and rivers; as a rule of thumb, I tried to use the names from around 6th-8th centuries. The exception to that is Japan, where many cities in 19th century still bore their original names. So Edo (modern Tokyo) is still "Edo", while Nagasaki is "Kiyo".
Having the map drawn by a professional map-maker was an important step to fleshing out the world properly. It's one thing to look at your own scribbling, another to see the names and borders you came up with on a large, colourful picture. It helps you smooth out the details, make sure little things like travel times and weather are more accurate. A good map is not the result of the world building process – it's a part of it.
In the end, the world building never ends. As long as the books are written, the world grows, both in time and in space. I can't wait to see what events and places will I discover next!

If you are someone who has a small or tiny kitchen at home, then you must be aware of how hard things can be to work in the limited space. Not only is storage a major problem but even cooking can get tough at times.
Since there is leg elbow room, less space to keep ingredients on the countertops and possibly only 1 or 2 burners, cooking can become a hassle. But through some amazing and genius tips, you can make this task easier The following is a list of the best tips for cooking in a small kitchen:
- Get a burner cover or an over the sink board to make more room for preparations in your tiny kitchen. If you have two burners, then you can cook on one and cover the other to place ingredients and make other kinds of preparations. You can also cover your sink with a board and make more room for keeping other things.
- To avoid cleaning up your kitchen or countertop again and again, use a small paper towel and cut fruits and vegetables on top of it. After you are done, you can simply remove the towel rather than wiping the countertop.
- Rinse and reuse utensils rather than reaching for unused ones. This helps to give your sink a little breathing space and avoids the need for engaging unused ones. Doing this will also help you save the time you spend on cleaning and will make your kitchen seem less busy or congested.
- Another amazing tip for working in a small kitchen is to get a taller faucet installed. What this will do is that it will make it easier for you to clean utensils and will also give your sink more space.
- To avoid filling up the kitchen with different appliances, consider getting one which performs multiple tasks. One such appliance is the immersion blender. What it does is that it replaces many big and chunky appliances and makes cooking easier in a small kitchen.
- Hanging a folding down table will allow you to get more space for preparations and will also ensure that you can eat or rest in the kitchen itself if the need comes up. Hang it on a wall which is opposite the countertops. This method allows you to free some foot space as well.

Creativity is at the core of building quality in design. People rarely innovate when they simply follow instructions. This led me to think more about creativity – the act of doing something in an unconventional way, the act of creating something meaningful that changes you and hence the world. Traditionally (in an industrial world), only artists were meant to be creative – painters, dancers, poets and so on. In the knowledge world, every professional has an opportunity (and a need) to be creative – to see patterns that others don't see, to create and initiate.
Around the same time I was thinking about creativity, I stumbled upon a great book titled "Creativity – Unleashing the Forces Within" written by 20th century spiritual teacher Osho. I read the book with great interest and gained some very enlightening insights. Here are a few:
Ego is the enemy of creativity. You are at your creative best when you do things because you find joy in doing it, because it has an intrinsic value to you. When you do things with a purpose of gaining recognition (and hence satisfy your ego), creativity is limited. Our need for external validation for our work stops us from being receptive, open and curious.
Creativity is a paradox. The more you try to be creative, the less creative you will be. Conscious effort to be creative comes in your way to be creative – that is because creativity flows. I wrote earlier that constraints help us become creative – but being in a state flow, being with the work, being in the work is the key to be creative. The book says, "It is not a question of what you do, it is the question of how you do it. And ultimately it is a question of whether you do it or you allow it to happen."
Creativity means letting go of past. Too much reliance on our past stops you from being creative. Creative person is the one who lives in the moment, understands the context and looks at possibilities. As Osho rightly says in the book, "To bring intelligence into activity, you don't need more information, you need more meditation. You need to become less mind and more heart."
Creativity is an inner game. It stems from your love for the subject. It stems from your passion to practice, courage to try and learn by doing. Osho says, "If your act is your love affair then it becomes creative. Creativity is the quality you bring to the activity you are doing. It is an attitude, an inner approach – how you look at things. Whatsoever you do, if you do it joyfully, if you do it lovingly, then it is creative"
Creativity demands a lot of courage. Because doing something unconventionally requires you take risks, be prepared for failure, and learn from it. Osho observes that once you recognition and respect (external validation) keeps us from experimenting, because we are too afraid to fail.
Bottom line:
Creativity isn't always about doing something that no one has done before – but in my view, it is always about executing your ideas with great love, great joy and a deep interest. If world recognizes it, you will be grateful. If not, you will still find intrinsic joy and happiness. Being creative is a selfish act!

Nudest young girls *** . . I am aware that many of you've been eager to see my face. Regrettably, my career demands that I must stay anonymous. I have been having so much fun posing for these pictures that I am hoping you'll all recognize... These images were shot in Whistler, Cananda during a recent ski trip. I had been hanging around in our suite wearing nothing but that cunning ski jumper once I chose to try on my new ski boots. Bryce came into the area and instantly snatched the camera for a number of pictures... By the way, thanks for all the nice comments on my previous pictures. For those who have some thoughts for future pictures, I would like to know in comments. Lots of Love...

Bonifay hits walk-off homer
ALTOONA - In a game that featured six home runs, Altoona's Josh Bonifay fittingly ended the contest with a walk-off, two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning as the Curve avoided a three-game sweep with an 8-6 victory over the Harrisburg Senators Sunday at Blair County Ballpark.
Bonifay went 3-for-4 in the game and finished the three-game series against Harrisburg by going 7-for-11 with a pair of homers and six RBIs. The Curve also got homers from Adam Boeve, his first at the AA level, and Craig Stansberry to help the club move back above the .500 mark at 50-49.
Harrisburg (49-51), who clinched their first season series with the Curve on Saturday night, missed out on an opportunity to reach the .500 mark for the first time since the club was 30-30 on June 13th.

Our little 2007 Pontiac Vibe is a good car for us. Besides being just the right size for 2 people, the hatchback allows for a versatile array of gear hauling, including the crate for our 90# German Shepherd. We have also modified the Vibe with a front attachment that allows us to tow it behind the RV. This car works out so well for us that I started looking around for a replacement in case the miles pile up to the point we have to retire it.
It turns out that Pontiac no longer exists, but the car this is based on, the Toyota Matrix, is still made. It is getting harder to find manual transmissions however. So I broadened my search to see if we might be able to buy a winter car, and store the Vibe away with the RV each winter. This should cut the miles the Vibe drives each year thereby extending its life.
While I was doing all this research, my elderly parents were reaching the point that they could no longer drive. They happened to have a car they no longer needed. My brother took the car (a 2010 Cadillac CTS) to the local Cadillac dealer, and they determined that since it had 80,000 miles on it, and needed some work, that it wasn't worth very much money. None of us siblings were interested in the car, and we were a whiskers breath away from accepting their offer. Then my brother mentioned in passing, "…it is all wheel drive."
"Hmm," I thought to myself.
As I was growing up, Cadillac made cars that I felt could have doubled as aircraft carriers. They kind of lumbered down the road. They had a lot of room inside, and a huge trunk, but I wouldn't have characterized them as nimble, or good in the snow. Also, Cadillac's cost a LOT of money… more than my budget. Perhaps it is snooty of me, but I also felt that people that drove them were trying to make it clear that they were pretty special folks… not the sort of message I try to convey in my life.
All wheel drive though. Hmm. To make a long story short, Alice and I decided to buy this car from our parents and drive it in the winter. And for the umpteenth time in my life, I learned I was wrong. This car is great in the snow. It is low to the ground, so you wouldn't want to plow through snow drifts with it. But if the snow is not too deep, this car performs nearly as well as any 4-wheel drive I've owned.
One plus we discovered on a trip a few weeks ago that was unanticipated, was the excellent brakes. We live in white tail deer country, and on a recent trip to Escanaba, we were driving along after dark when 2 deer sauntered across the road in front of us. I had to stab the brakes. That car stopped right now. We were seriously lucky we had our seat belts on or the G forces would have tossed us forward. We missed the deer by a wide margin, and I accelerated away from the incident with a new respect. This is a well engineered car that is good in the snow, accelerates well, gets surprisingly good gas mileage, and oh yes, it has heated seats.
