Pakistani Court Acquits Christian Woman of 'Blasphemy'
GUJRANWALA, Pakistan (Compass Direct News) – A Pakistani court on Wednesday exonerated a Christian woman of "blasphemy" charges after authorities had pressured her into making a false confession, according to the Centre for Legal Aid Assistance and Settlement (CLAAS).
Rubina Bibi arrived in Lahore yesterday after Additional and Session Judge Mohammad Asghar Khan in Wazirabad district set her free in Gujranwala, Punjab, said CLAAS National Director Joseph Francis.
Residents of Alipur Chatta, Gujranwala district in Punjab Province accused her of blaspheming Muhammad on March 20. Police arrested her on March 21 under Section 295-C of Pakistan's widely condemned "blasphemy" laws, accusing her of having spoken ill of Muhammad during a quarrel with a local resident. She was sent to Gujranwala district jail along with her 1.5-year-old son, Yashwa.
Punjab provincial legislator Tahir Naveed Chaudhary, Sargodha area head of the All Pakistan Minorities Alliance (APMA), said that on March 20 the mother of three had purchased some edible fats from a Muslim woman, Seema Bibi, but asked for a refund when she found they were impure.
Seema Bibi began threatening her and speaking derogatorily of Christ, Christians and Christianity, Chaudhary said. In her false confession on April 6, Rubina Bibi said under duress that she was not used to hearing such contempt about herself and her faith and responded by insulting Muhammad.
"Her statement of confession was under pressure, and we obtained her new statement in the presence of lawyers in which she said that she did no such thing," Francis said.
After hearing evidence in two previous hearings, the judge ordered the investigating officer to appear in court yesterday. Bashir of CLAAS, which took up Rubina Bibi's case on March 30, offered an extended argument from previous case law, and Khan acquitted her, Francis said.
"We are once again in need of your prayers for the safety of Rubina, her husband Amjad Masih and her three kids," Francis said. "Though she is acquitted by the court of law, even then it will be very difficult for Rubina's family to live at their home among the Muslim extremists – they will have to move to some safe place."
Following the July 19 killing of two Christian men accused of blasphemy, the Rev. Rashid Emmanuel and his brother Sajid Emmanuel, outside a courthouse in Faisalabad, CLAAS has arranged high security for Rubina Bibi and her family, Francis said. She and her husband also have two daughters, 5-year-old Elena and 3-year-old Eliza.
Initially police in Alipur Chatta tried to keep rights groups from discovering the detention of Rubina Bibi, a Christian leader said. Alipur Chatta police denied that they had detained Rubina Bibi when Khalid Gill, Lahore regional coordinator of APMA, inquired about her, Gill told Compass.
Gill said a radical Muslim relative of the accuser, Sabir Munir Qadri, had turned the quarrel into a religious issue in which the Christian could be sentenced to death or life imprisonment with a large fine.
Pakistan's blasphemy laws have gained international notoriety for their misuse by Muslims to settle personal grudges. Police initially told Compass that the First Information Report was sealed and no further information would be released to any person or news outlet. Inspector Asif Nadeem, station house officer of Alipur Chatta police, declined to speak to Compass in spite of repeated efforts to contact him.
The case comes on the heels of the March 3 sentencing in Kasur of a Christian couple to 25 years in prison under Section 295-B of the blasphemy laws for defiling the Quran. Ruqqiya Bibi and her husband Munir Masih had been arrested by Mustafabad police in December 2008 for touching Islam's sacred scripture without ritually washing.
In Karachi, a court on Feb. 25 sentenced another Christian, Qamar David, to 25 years in prison and a fine of 100,000 rupees (US$1,170) after he was convicted without basis for sending blasphemous text messages in May 2006. David was convicted under Section 295-A of the blasphemy statues for "injuring religious feelings of any community," and also under Section 295-C for derogatory remarks against Muhammad.
His lawyer, Pervaiz Aslam Chaudhry, told Compass that the conviction was without basis as all 16 witnesses at the trial said that not David but the owner of the cell phone through which they received the blasphemous messages was guilty.
Maximum punishment for violation of Section 295-A is life imprisonment, and for Section 295-C the maximum punishment is death, though life imprisonment is also possible. David received the sentence of life in prison, which is 25 years in Pakistan. He had not been granted bail since his arrest in 2006.

This summary of the book of Revelation provides information about the title, author(s), date of writing, chronology, theme, theology, outline, a brief overview, and the chapters of the Book of Revelation.
Four times the author identifies himself as John (1:1,4,9; 22:8). From as early as Justin Martyr in the second century a.d. it has been held that this John was the apostle, the son of Zebedee (see Mt 10:2). The book itself reveals that the author was a Jew, well versed in Scripture, a church leader who was well known to the seven churches of Asia Minor, and a deeply religious person fully convinced that the Christian faith would soon triumph over the demonic forces at work in the world.
In the third century, however, an African bishop named Dionysius compared the language, style and thought of the Apocalypse (Revelation) with that of the other writings of John and decided that the book could not have been written by the apostle John. He suggested that the author was a certain John the Presbyter, whose name appears elsewhere in ancient writings. Although many today follow Dionysius in his view of authorship, the external evidence seems overwhelmingly supportive of the traditional view.
Revelation was written when Christians were entering a time of persecution. The two periods most often mentioned are the latter part of Nero's reign (a.d. 54-68) and the latter part of Domitian's reign (81-96). Most interpreters date the book c. 95. (A few suggest a date during the reign of Vespasian: 69-79.)
Since Roman authorities at this time were beginning to enforce emperor worship, Christians -- who held that Christ, not Caesar, was Lord -- were facing increasing hostility. The believers at Smyrna are warned against coming opposition (2:10), and the church at Philadelphia is told of an hour of trial coming on the world (3:10). Antipas has already given his life (2:13) along with others (6:9). John has been exiled to the island of Patmos (probably the site of a Roman penal colony) for his activities as a Christian missionary (1:9). Some within the church are advocating a policy of compromise (2:14-15,20), which has to be corrected before its subtle influence can undermine the determination of believers to stand fast in the perilous days that lie ahead.
John writes to encourage the faithful to resist staunchly the demands of emperor worship. He informs his readers that the final showdown between God and Satan is imminent. Satan will increase his persecution of believers, but they must stand fast, even to death. They are sealed against any spiritual harm and will soon be vindicated when Christ returns, when the wicked are forever destroyed, and when God's people enter an eternity of glory and blessedness.
For an adequate understanding of Revelation, the reader must recognize that it is a distinct kind of literature. Revelation is apocalyptic, a kind of writing that is highly symbolic. Although its visions often seem bizarre to the Western reader, fortunately the book provides a number of clues for its own interpretation (e.g., stars are angels, lampstands are churches, 1:20; "the great prostitute," 17:1, is "Babylon" [Rome?], 17:5,18; and the heavenly Jerusalem is the wife of the Lamb, 21:9-10).
A distinctive feature is the frequent use of the number seven (52 times). There are seven beatitudes (see note on 1:3), seven churches (1:4,11), seven spirits (1:4), seven golden lampstands (1:12), seven stars (1:16), seven seals (5:1), seven horns and seven eyes (5:6), seven trumpets (8:2), seven thunders (10:3), seven signs (12:1,3; 13:13-14; 15:1; 16:14; 19:20), seven crowns (12:3), seven plagues (15:6), seven golden bowls (15:7), seven hills (17:9) and seven kings (17:10), as well as other sevens. Symbolically, the number seven stands for completeness.
Interpreters of Revelation normally fall into four groups:
Fortunately, the fundamental truths of Revelation do not depend on adopting a particular point of view. They are available to anyone who will read the book for its overall message and resist the temptation to become overly enamored with the details.

10 BBQ Fails to Avoid on Memorial Day
Got any Memorial Day plans? Maybe you're heading to a parade and dressing up in those American flag shorts (guilty). Or perhaps heading to the public pool to kick off swimming season is more your style. Whatever you do, there's one Memorial Day staple that all Americans must experience on Monday— the BBQ.
While barbecuing makes basically everything taste delicious, it does run a high fail risk. Fires start, food is burned and the entire experience becomes a whole bunch of shenanigans. There are also situations where people try to get creative when it comes to barbecuing, like using a shopping cart as a grill, and that's just wrong. So when you fire up the grill this Memorial Day, remember these BBQ fails, and try to avoid any sort of reenactments.

Solotica Ordering Info
7:24 PMI've been getting a lot of questions about where and how to order Solotica lenses lately from Soompi, Youtube, and my blog, so I thought I'd make a post about it. First of all, these lenses are Brazilian which means you will ONLY find them online from sites like Viallure or lentesdecontato.net. These websites are in Portugese so it may be helpful to use some translator.
There are a few things to keep in mind. First, the price of the lenses on the websites is in BRL (Brazilian reales) so you will need to convert the money into USD (American dollars) or whatever money you are using to pay. So don't freak out and think each lens is $150 USD! The lenses usually run around $40-50 USD depending on what style you buy, and shipping is around $20 USD. Shipping cost of course varies between sites so make sure you double check on all costs.
You will need to know what style and color you want. For that, you can google Solotica to find pictures but here is a breakdown:
* azul: blue
* verde: green (only looks natural on light eyes)
* verde marine: aqua
* ocre: greyish brown
* mel: honey (usually looks green)
* grafite: grey (usually looks blue)
* ice -not pictured-: white (usually looks light blue or grey, was called "branca")
Hidrocor (Most opaque, no limbal ring)
Hidrocharme (Middle opacity, thicker limbal ring)
Natural Colors (Least opaque, thin and light grey limbal ring)
These lenses are semi-opaque, which means that they are not completely a solid color but have little dots that blend with your natural eye color. The model for the color chart has light brown, honey-colored eyes and as you can see, each color blends in with his real eye color. This is a VERY IMPORTANT thing to know, because the color of the lens will be different on different eyes. For instance, on my medium reddish-brown eyes, the NC ocres (orangey yellow lens) looked honey-grey while the Hidrocharme mels (yellow lens) look foresty green. Mels actually mean "honey" in portugese and look lime green or yellow on light eyes! My advice would be to do your homework on these lenses. Look at photos of the lens on someone with your similar eye color.
From what I know, natural colors can sometimes be too translucent for very dark eyes so they don't show up as well as charmes or cors. Charmes can give you an "innocent" look by enlarging your iris, while cors are the most natural. You just have to worry about "bleeding" with cors in certain colors (mel, ocre) because it may look like you have a yellow ring around your iris if your iris is small, which isn't the prettiest thing. Grafite (grey, but actually looks dark blue) and branca/ice (white, but looks light blue) don't give you a bleeding problem because their base color is white and blends in with your sclera. The limbal ring in natural colors and charmes masks the bleeding problem. Also, verde marine is more of a bright greenish aqua than in the color chart.
Viallure now has an English-version of their website. Just click on the little British flag at the top right of the page. On the order page, the price is for 1 lens, and you need 2 so double the cost for the price of the lenses. Your order will show up on the next page with 1 lens for the right eye, and 1 lens for the left eye. Finish ordering through the website or e-mail or IM Ana Paula (English-speaking rep for Viallure) at firstname.lastname@example.com if you get confused and would like to order that way. Ana is very nice and Viallure has great service. Just as an additional note, they will ask you for an ID number, but just give them a random number that you write down for your records.
For Lentesdecontacto.net, the process will be in Portugese, but I've heard that they pack the lenses safer than Viallure. I may be wrong on this, but I think both companies are now accepting paypal payment if you are worried about credit card information. Also, tutorials for ordering from either site can be found at the Lensaholics forum in this thread: http://lensaholics.proboards102.com/index.cgi?board=solotica&action=display&thread=4214
I hope that helps everyone out and I hope you guys enjoy these beautiful lenses as much as I do!
EDIT 5/9/09: Due to e-mails and comments from various companies promoting or "calling out" websites for being good to buy from or being scammers, I have disabled the comments for this post. If you do have questions, please comment on the most current blog post. I urge everyone to be very careful in purchasing Soloticas online. Use a lot of discretion and do your research. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Thanks guys.

omg that was the most helpful post ever! i've been cruisin through lensaholics but nothing cleared up my questions as well as you did right there! I think I'm going to save up from natural colors ocre :D or hydrocor grafite. thanks so much!

Which lenses are you wearing in that picture? And which ones would you say are your favorite?
ReplyDelete Anonymous: I am wearing the Hidrocharme Mel in the picture. I love them, they are my current fav but my next solotica purchase I think will be ice. I don't have any blue lenses so it'll be nice for a change. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting this. It was so helpful. You have such beautiful round almond eyes. I'm so envious!
I wanted to ask which pair of lenses would you recommend for those who want to achieve lighter brown eyes given that they already dark brown eyes? Hidrocharme Ocre or Natural Colors Ocre?Thanks alot for this tutroial. I was contemplating if I should pm you via soompi, but then I found you made a blog about it :). You said grafite looks slightly blue, but would it look grey on dark brown eyes?
Also because Grafite you said has like a white base, there wouldn't be no bleeding at all? meanig I could order the cor without chances of bleeding?
I have single eye lids, but not slits. I just want a natural eye colour, because I already own cirle lenses already and just want to try something new. Thanks alot for this ^__^- AnonymousApril 19, 2008 at 8:28 AM
I just came across your blog via an aspirin-honey mask search, and I just have to drop some praises for you. No doubt, you're a very pretty girl, and I'm so happy that you're sharing your beauty secrets with us. The Solotica lenses are the most natural-looking I've ever come across. Whoo- gonna buy me a pair now. Thanks for the post!
ReplyDelete Pearl: I would definitely recommend the hidrocharme ocre, as the NC tends to be unpredictable with translucency. It is often too dark on very dark eyes. The charme will show up much better.
가라라니: The grafite actually looks bluer on darker eyes and greyer on lighter eyes. Darker eyes tend to give soloticas a bluer shade, which is the same reason why Mels look green on dark or medium brown eyes. Grafites don't have a bleeding problem because the lens color is a light grey-white color. It will look very natural, although you might think your eyes look smaller because you are used to circle lenses! Cors don't enlarge eyes at all, but hidrocor grafites are a beautiful lens. Good luck! :)- AnonymousApril 21, 2008 at 10:25 PM
hi Jen, what foundation do you use? I'm having trouble finding foundation that matches my skintone.. -_-
ReplyDelete Anonymous: I use Everyday Minerals foundation in Fairly Light Neutral in the Intensive formula. For summertime when I get tanner, I use Golden Medium. Hope that helps!

I know this is random but I came upon this site because I'm trying to get colored contacts, and i wanted a natural green look. Usually when people wear them it's obvious they're fake, but these look really great. So Im torn between getting the Hidrocor or the hidrocharme. What do you think? I naturally have deep brown eyes.
ReplyDelete if you have smaller irises, go with the hidrocharme. If you have larger irises, go with the hidrocor.
hidrocors sometimes "bleed" color onto the white of your eyes if your iris is too small and may look like you have a yellow ring around your iris. hidrocharmes conceal this problem, but for people with large irises they also can make the ring look TOO bold. It's really up to your iris size and your personal preference. Hope that helps. :)- AnonymousMay 10, 2008 at 7:15 PM
Thank you Jen for this informative site. Question: How long does a pair of Solotica lenses last? I am going to buy a pair, but it seems they can't be bought in bulk (year supply). Also, I currently wear freshlook, which fit my eyes well. These have a diameter of 14.5. The Solotica have a diameter of 14.2. Will this make a huge difference?
ReplyDelete Alyssa: As far as I know, soloticas only come as an annual lens, which means they are a single pair of lenses that last for 1 year. So you wouldn't be buying it in bulk anyway. Diameter should be fine. :)
ReplyDelete- AnonymousMay 12, 2008 at 11:02 AM
I'm having so much difficulty ordering them!? and how do I know if the size is alright for my eyes, do I need a prescription, etc. You are such a great help, thank you miss.
ReplyDelete Sam: If you are unsure about your prescription or what lens size fits you, I'd recommend getting your eyes checked with an optometrist. If you already know your lens prescription, you can input it when you order. If you have 20/20 vision, you will want to order plano lenses [-0, -0].
ReplyDeleteJen, I found your blog from the Soompi thread. You look gorgeous with the Hydrocharme lenses :)
Just a question, do they come in versions for astigmatism? i have astigmatism of L125/R175.. would dearly love to buy the lenses. thanks so much! :)- AnonymousMay 16, 2008 at 4:56 PM

Hello Jen:
I really like the Hidrocor lenses by Solotica, particualrly the Ocre, but I have a couple of questions. I noticed that the diameter for these lenses is 14.2mm and the Base Curve is 8.7. My eye diameter is 13.8 with a Base Curve of 8.6. Do you know if this will be a problem? Will it hurt my eyes? Will the natural effects of the lenses be affected in some way?
Thank you for this great and helpful post!
I hope to hear from you soon =) - AnonymousAugust 17, 2008 at 5:59 PM
oh! another question... how do you maintain them? do you have to buy a special solution for them through Viallur?
again, thanks for the great post!
hope to hear from you soon! =) Hi, Jen! My eyes are dark brown and I have pretty big irises, I think. I just want my eyes to be a lighter tint of brown, so should I get the Ocres or the Mels. And I guess since my irises are bigger I should get the Hidrocors, right? You are such a help!

Hi! I wear color contacts, but I wear Freshlook Pure Hazel. I was thinking of getting Hidrocharme Ice like you have now, but I don't know how to use it after you buy it. On the Villlar website it says they last for 1 year, but then how do you clean them? Can i just use the opti free lens solution and clean it nomrally? Or should i buy the ultra sonic thing you have; & how do you know when the contacts are used up when you use the ultra sonic cleaner? Thanks. I have lots and lots of more questions, so please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com ! Thankss !!

Hi jen you helped so many other people so I thought I would take a shot. I have really dark brown eyes. I'm looking for a solotica color that will make my eyes look light green or a vibrant green. Is that possible? I've heard that verde aqua looks really fake so I don't want to try that one. And I think that that mel might look more brownish honey like then green.

I am interested in ordering solotica lenses and can't decide wether to choose the natural colors or hidrocor lenses. Are natural colors really transparent on dark asian eyes? I seen some pics on people with NC lenses and these lenses seem to pop out with color instead of the hidrocor. What would you reccommend if I want the color of lenses to really pop out NC MEL OR HIDROCOR MEL? I am just confused when you said it is transparent but I dont see that with peoples pics who have the NC LENSES on. The color pops out more then the hidrocor.

I just order my Solotica Hidrocor-verde from lentesdecontato.net 3 days ago.
They have a great sale now, 4 vials and a beach bag for $115 incluiding S&H.
Their customer service is great, as soon as i pay for my order, they email me saying the green color was out of stock but they order from the distributor and would send it to me in 2 to 3 days. A dollar now in Brazil is $2 reals, so whatever you see the price in brazilian money, means you are paying half.
E-mails me if you need more info, i can speak portuguese from Brazil.
firstname.lastname@example.com Jen, you are so helpful and nice. Your post gave me all the info I've spent the last hour on google looking for.
Do you know if solotica lenses can be ordered in prescription to correct vision too?

Also i have an online store www.smittenbyme.com , come and check it out. thanks! please i need your help, i'm dying to get these lens! X, - AnonymousDecember 16, 2008 at 10:19 AM
Hi Jen,
Thank you for sharing all the information. I did a little bit of research and since I am Mexican it was really easy for me because portugues is almost the same as spanish. Just a hint for all of those buying the lenses, if you purchase them for cosmetic use, choose "Sem Grau (Plana)" which means without degree (plane)the total being shipped to US will be 171,00 around $ 72.46 USD for one pair. If you pay with credit card you might be paying to the Credit Card Company an "extra" hidden charge.According to the customer service operator form lentesdecontato.net the cores are the most popular and natural look, you can hardly tell they are contact lenses comparing with charms or natural color. Thank you again Jen, you are so pretty in all ways. God Bless you. - AnonymousJanuary 7, 2009 at 2:50 PM
I found this website a few months ago and ordered these lenses in hidrocor mel, and NO ONE CAN TELL!! I absolutely love them and will never never wear any other kind of contacts.
Things I found:
~I had a problem with shipping, and it was kind of a pain to get them to send them to me (-months-) later.. and they didn't even adjust the shipping cost which I thought was rude. :P
~I ordered them as a prescription, and they don't work as well as they should, so don't go on a blind date or perform surgery wearing them hehe
~Most people go for blue contacts when they really should go for green... look at your foundation... if it has a pink/rosy, blue or ashy undertone, go for blue or gray eyes. Anyone who wears warm beiges, yellowy, olive, and neutral colored foundation should go with green.
And anyone who isn't a light blonde will look good in ocre! - AnonymousMarch 3, 2009 at 11:57 PM
Thank you Jen! I ordered my solotica mel's from viallure.com and I just couldn't be happier with them! They are so comfy, I almost forgot I was wearing them and they look very natural. People, you need to try these contacts! So worth the money! The one thing that I think people need to know about viallure is the shipping. I paid for Fed Ex 2-7 day shipping (I live in Hawaii) and it took 2 weeks for them to arrive due 'clearance delay.' I finally emailed fed ex and they called me three days later asking me if they were prescription or not. These were not so they arrived two days later. I am not sure what kind of problems people can expect if they are ordering prescription lenses, but it seems to me that they were not going to ship them to me if I didn't have a viable prescription. So, be prepared to wait a lot longer for them to arrive and if you order prescription, better have your proof ready to get them cleared.

I also have a question regarding the solotica lenses. I just order them a month a go and i love them, every since i saw them on you they look so natural. anyways my question is how much oxygen do they really allow in your eyes, are they healthy and safe as fresh look?

Hey! I ordered from viallure and I had to speak to Ana. Thank you for your detailed help :)
ReplyDelete Hello every body, I have bought Hidrocore Ocers from viallure, But i regret so badly Villure just steals money. They sell them more than twice as expensive as the lenses are! If you can use a translator or get some one who speaks Portuguese to help you, otica bellucci.com is the best and you can get them half price comparing to viallure and had shipping to all countries.

Sorry for any error...I'm not speak english...I've just tried :)...thank's!

(AP) Michigan Supreme Court justice charged with fraud
By ED WHITE
Associated Press
Federal prosecutors have filed a fraud charge against Michigan Supreme Court Justice Diane Hathaway, just a few days before she leaves the state's highest court in a scandal involving the sale of a Detroit-area home and suspicious steps taken to conceal property in Florida.
The charge was filed Friday as a criminal "information," which means it was negotiated and that a guilty plea is expected in federal court. Defense attorney Steve Fishman declined to comment Saturday.
Hathaway is resigning Monday, months after a series of questionable real estate transactions first were revealed by a Detroit TV station. Hathaway and her husband, Michael Kingsley, deeded a Florida home to Kingsley's daughter while trying to negotiate a short sale on a house they couldn't afford in Grosse Pointe Park.
In a short sale, a bank agrees to a sale that wipes out any remaining mortgage, a significant benefit for any borrower. The 2011 deal went through and erased the couple's $600,000 debt in Michigan. Five months later, in 2012, the debt-free Windermere, Fla., home worth more than $600,000 went back in their names for $10.
The bank fraud charge says Hathaway made false statements to ING Direct, transferred property to others and failed to disclose available cash _ all in an effort to fool the bank into believing she had a severe financial hardship. Kingsley, also a lawyer, has not been charged.
Hathaway has refused to make any lengthy public comments. She told WXYZ-TV last spring that the property shuffles were a private matter.
The maximum penalty for bank fraud is 30 years in prison, although that would be a rare punishment for anyone and very unlikely for Hathaway. Nonetheless, some time in custody should be expected, predicts former federal prosecutor Lloyd Meyer of Chicago.
"Any bank robber who robs a bank with no gun and just a note goes away to prison. A judge who steals over half a million dollars should enjoy the same fate," said Meyer, referring to the amount of debt written off after the short sale. "As a former federal prosecutor, it would be unthinkable to have this type of defendant get a slap on the wrist."
U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade declined to comment on Hathaway's possible punishment or other aspects of the case. The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge John Corbett O'Meara in Ann Arbor.
Hathaway, 58, filed retirement papers with the state Dec. 20, but it was not publicly disclosed until Jan. 7 when a state judicial watchdog filed an ethics complaint against her for the real estate transactions, calling them "blatant and brazen" violations of professional conduct as a judge. Her last day as a justice is Monday, although Hathaway has not participated in court business for two weeks and has vacated her offices.
It was no secret Hathaway was under scrutiny by prosecutors. The government filed a lawsuit in November to seize the Florida home as the fruit of bank fraud. The civil case is pending and likely will be consolidated with the criminal case.
Hathaway was halfway through an eight-year term on the court, the result of a major election upset over then-Chief Justice Cliff Taylor in 2008. Her victory put Democrats in control of the court for a two-year period. She was a Wayne County judge before joining the Supreme Court.
Chief Justice Robert Young Jr., a Republican, released a statement, in which he said the scandal diminishes the public's trust in government. He said Hathaway's departure and the criminal charge "bring to a close an unhappy, uncharacteristic chapter in the life of this court."
Republican Gov. Rick Snyder will choose Hathaway's successor and likely stretch the GOP's majority to 5-2.

You'll soon need some 3-cent stamps to go with those 46-cent ones.
Regulators on Tuesday authorized the increase, and beginning Jan. 26, it'll cost 49 cents to send a first-class letter. Bulk rate mail, periodicals and package service rates will go up 6 percent, The Associated Press says.
Regulators rejected a request to make the price hike permanent and say instead that it will last no longer than two years, by which time the U.S. Postal Service should have recouped $2.8 billion in losses.
The AP says:
"The independent Postal Regulatory Commission said the change was justified by severe mail volume decreases since 2008."

Although the final score read 57-18 in favor of visiting Monticello, Dolores wrestled well head-to-head versus the Utah school.
The Bears have caught the injury and sick bugs this week. Only eight wrestlers suited up at home Tuesday night.
In actual matches, Dolores wrestled Monticello to a 21-12 result. But the Buckaroos brought nearly a full roster, resulting in the Bears to forfeit six matches, which resulted in the final 57-18 outcome.
"They're a great program," Bears coach Leo Garand said about Monticello. "They have five or six state placers and two state champions they brought in here tonight. It's a good matrix to see where we're at in the season."
Kellen Gatzke won by forfeit at 170 pounds for Dolores. Levi Noyes and Deano Valdez were the other winners at 120 and 152 pounds, respectively.
"Levi Noyes wrestled great and Deano went out there and got the job done as well," Garand said.
Valdez (12-1) dominated his match against Dustin Christensen. The Dolores junior picked up Christensen and slammed him to the mat for a vicious takedown. Valdez violently took down Christensen one more time, which ultimately spelled doom for Christensen. Valdez secured the pin with 51.9 seconds left in the first-round.
"That's how I try to go out in all my matches. Take it to them right away," said a winded Valdez. "I just show up ready to wrestle. It was just come out and get it done, do what I have to do."
Valdez is riding high with confidence. His only loss this season came against Del Norte's Shawn Beiriger, who is the No. 1-ranked 2A wrestler by Coloradopreps.com at 152 pounds.
"I'm pumped for state this year. I'm trying to look forward to that and get my record up," Valdez said. "My season goal, is taking state. That's my main one. I've been training harder. I lifted weights all summer."
Noyes made plenty of noise at his home gym with a second-round-pin over Andrew Baird. Noyes controlled the match with plenty of takedown points, but Baird fought hard to stay alive.
Noyes had his opponent on his back virtually the entire first period. But Baird staved off elimination, for the time being, anyway.
In the second period, it was much of the same. Baird laid on his back and it appeared he would survive another round.
Noyes had enough.
With 11.7 seconds left in the period, Noyes finally secured the pin to win.
At 145s, Wyatt Wade (No. 3, Coloradopreps.com) had the tough task of wrestling defending Utah state champion Cole Eldredge.
Wade struck first with a takedown to lead early 2-0. Seconds later, Eldredge countered with a 2-point takedown of his own to knot the score.
Wade would stay down.
Eldredge's reversal put Wade down for the count with 33.5 seconds remaining in the first period.
Dolores' Guy Wallace lost to Brandon Mussleman at 138 by a 17-0 technical fall.
Luke Murefield lost to Monticello's Hunter Bowring at 126 by a 15-1 major decision.
"I was pretty happy with the way the guys wrestled," Garand said. "I've got a couple newer guys in there that went out there and got to face state placers, and then we saw some other good performances."
The Bears will be in Page, Ariz., today and Saturday for a tournament that will have five states representing.
"We haven't been to an elimination tournament yet," Garand said. "In the dual match tournaments, we've done really well. We've done the round-robin tournaments to try to stack up as many matches as we can going into this elimination tournament. We're going to see a lot of different styles and a lot of different wrestlers there. We're excited about that."
Wrestling begins this afternoon at 1.

What is an appraisal
A home purchase is the largest, single investment most people will ever make. Whether it's a primary residence, a second vacation home or an investment, the purchase of real property is a complex financial transaction that requires multiple parties to pull it all off. Most of the people involved are very familiar. The Realtor is the most common face of the transaction. The mortgage company provides the financial capital necessary to fund the transaction. The title company ensures that all aspects of the transaction are completed and that a clear title passes from the seller to the buyer. So who makes sure the value of the property is in line with the amount being paid? There are too many people exposed in the real estate process to let such a transaction proceed without ensuring that the value of the property is commensurate with the amount being paid. This is where the appraisal comes in. An appraisal is an unbiased estimate of what a buyer might expect to pay - or a seller receive - for a parcel of real estate, where both buyer and seller are informed parties. To be an informed party, most people turn to a licensed, certified, professional appraiser to provide them with the most accurate estimate of the true value of their property. The Inspection So what goes into a real estate appraisal? It all starts with the inspection. An appraiser's duty is to inspect the property being appraised to ascertain the true status of that property. He or she must actually see features, such as the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, the location, and so on, to ensure that they really exist and are in the condition a reasonable buyer would expect them to be. The inspection often includes a sketch of the property, ensuring the proper square footage and conveying the layout of the property. Most importantly, the appraiser looks for any obvious features - or defects - that would affect the value of the house. Once the site has been inspected, an appraiser uses two or three approaches to determining the value of real property: a cost approach, a sales comparison and, in the case of a rental property, an income approach. Cost Approach The cost approach is the easiest to understand. The appraiser uses information on local building costs, labor rates and other factors to determine how much it would cost to construct a property similar to the one being appraised. This value often sets the upper limit on what a property would sell for. Why would you pay more for an existing property if you could spend less and build a brand new home instead? While there may be mitigating factors, such as location and amenities, these are usually not reflected in the cost approach. Sales Comparison Instead, appraisers rely on the sales comparison approach to value these types of items. Appraisers get to know the neighborhoods in which they work. They understand the value of certain features to the residents of that area. They know the traffic patterns, the school zones, the busy throughways; and they use this information to determine which attributes of a property will make a difference in the value. Then, the appraiser researches recent sales in the vicinity and finds properties which are ''comparable'' to the subject being appraised. The sales prices of these properties are used as a basis to begin the sales comparison approach. Using knowledge of the value of certain items such as square footage, extra bathrooms, hardwood floors, fireplaces or view lots (just to name a few), the appraiser adjusts the comparable properties to more accurately portray the subject property. For example, if the comparable property has a fireplace and the subject does not, the appraiser may deduct the value of a fireplace from the sales price of the comparable home. If the subject property has an extra half-bathroom and the comparable does not, the appraiser might add a certain amount to the comparable property. In the case of income producing properties - rental houses for example - the appraiser may use a third approach to valuing the property. In this case, the amount of income the property produces is used to arrive at the current value of those revenues over the foreseeable future. Reconciliation Combining information from all approaches, the appraiser is then ready to stipulate an estimated market value for the subject property. It is important to note that while this amount is probably the best indication of what a property is worth, it may not be the final sales price. There are always mitigating factors such as seller motivation, urgency or ''bidding wars'' that may adjust the final price up or down. But the appraised value is often used as a guideline for lenders who don't want to loan a buyer more money than the property is actually worth. The bottom line is: an appraiser will help you get the most accurate property value, so you can make the most informed real estate decisions. |

Another "Chef John is Traveling" Rerun: Cabbage Rolls a Mother Knows Best
My mother had some amazing cabbage rolls waiting for Michele and me upon our arrival. As we ate I could tell by the look in my wife's eyes she was thinking, "yours are good, but these are better." When you've been together as long as we have, you can actually read each others minds.
After a brief conversation it was discovered that while I use the same ingredients as mom, she cooks hers an additional hour. This explained the extra tender filling, and even sweeter, more tender cabbage. So, here is my cabbage roll recipe video (inspired by my Aunt's recipe - you can read that original post here, and get the ingredients) and as you watch please take note the cooking time is not 2, but 3 hours. Thanks mom. Enjoy!
Update to the Update! After further discussions with my mother, and my aunt who I credited with the recipe, it seems that I'm using several ingredients not officially sanctioned by the family elders. Apparently they don't use Parmesan or egg in the mixture, and it been "suggested" that if I continue using those ingredients I should stop telling people it's their recipe!

I think you miss the cold, the salt potatoes, the Cornell chichen, and the Friday fish frys from good old NYS...lol. - January 9, 2009 at 10:05 AM
Dear Chef John!
I'm from Viet Nam. I want to say thank you so much by all your cooking videos. God bless you! - January 9, 2009 at 9:53 PM
You used tarragon mustard in 2 of your recent recipes, so OF COURSE I had to get some...
We don't have a Whole Foods here so I enlisted my sis in Marin to go over to San Rafael to get some for me. Of course they did not have THAT flavor although they did have others of that brand.They suggested she got up to Novato or Santa Rosa but she decided to try United. They carried it but of course were OUT! She called for store help and the manager dug WAY in the back & found TWO jars hidden behind the other types.SO....see what watching your videos have driven me to???? enlisting all manner of help from family, friends & strangers!
Again-Thanks for the vids.

Recipes calling for "exotic" or uncommon ingredients often discourage many from trying it, for fear of ruining a dish. Not using the exact ingredients can lead to a loss of money and time, not to mention disappointment, and decreased confidence in skills, so I particularly admire Chef John's explaining substitutions and his encouragement to "personalize" his recipes to one's liking. I also like it when he explains how to tweak one ingredient to make it resemble the one he's using, when it's obviously some may have difficulty finding it, or in some cases, just flat out saying there is no substitute - so stop now if you can't or won't use it. His (www) videos are seen in many countries, and I think it is relevant that substitute ingredients are recommended when possible.
Chef John, is there a technique to making regular yellow mustard into a tarragon flavored dijon?
(BTW my wordy comment should not necessarily indicate I am a lawyer or work for the government!) - January 10, 2009 at 2:35 PM
Should we assume your mother and aunt have more Italian sounding maiden names then the sir name you carry? Just what IS your heritage?
- January 10, 2009 at 2:41 PM
- Chef John said...
yes they have. I'm 50% Italian 25% each Polish and Russian
- January 10, 2009 at 3:10 PM
- Chef John said...
thanks for the long comment! you can certainly make regular dijon into tarragon dijon, but not sure if yellow mustard can make a decent Dijon.
- January 10, 2009 at 3:15 PM
Having company this evening and will make the cabbage rolls, can't wait to try them.
- January 11, 2009 at 12:17 PM
I'd just like to clarify that I did make the salmon cakes with regular dijon and that was very good but I liked it so much that I was intrigued enough to search out (or have my minions search out) the tarragon dijon. Now I will try it again. The only thing I did not like was that I used an inferior type of canned salmon so that will have to be upgraded.
Hope you & Michelle are having fun on the East Coast! It's been 68 degrees here....
Luisa Vacaville - January 11, 2009 at 6:42 PM
Oh, No!
Luisa, you know, in New York, the term "my computer froze" has a much different meaning than we are accustomed to experiencing, so you weren't supposed to let on about the "perfect" weather in Northern California.
Chef John's wife's maiden name translates to "cold hands," and no matter the amount of "fun" and "warm fellowship," that she is having while visiting his wonderful family, I am fairly certain, in the days remaining of their trip, when the forecast is for below zero temperatures, this will convince him to only suggest his wife accompany him to his home in NY, during warmer months. - January 11, 2009 at 9:18 PM

is it just me or did i not see parmesan in this recipe that u speak of
- January 12, 2009 at 2:07 AM
Everfything went as planned and we, plus company, had the dish last night. Rave reviews from all!!! I did cook the full 3 hours and found that I really liked the outcome, sort of a high quality light sausage, very European, wonderful.
- January 12, 2009 at 9:13 AM
No, it LOOKED like parmesan but was basmati rice. Recipe ingred are listed under March 29, 2007.

I made this recipe last night & it was fabulous! I used less butter...but it came out brilliantly. I used my thousand (nearly) year old cast iron pot & that made it taste extra good.
Thanks you for your video...it made it all so clear for me. Yum. - January 25, 2009 at 11:01 AM
- Chick said...
& you were right about only using the freshest parsley...it made all the difference in the world.

Hi Chef John! (It's weird. I wanted to say "Hi John", but it just doesn't have the same ring to it. Just couldn't do it!)
I just made these tonight and my goodness, they were WONDERFUL. All the prep, all the cooking time, and the excruciating period of thumb twiddling during the last minutes while the cabbage rolls rested was completely worth it when we finally sat down and dined on the amazing dish. I've never made cabbage rolls but have fond memories of our close family friend making them for our family since I was practically a baby and these are definitely something I've grown up with and adored. I had SO much fun making these and even though I just finished dinner just minutes ago, I'm ready to make another batch already! Sometimes cooking can feel like a chore but making these was definitely the highlight of my day :)
Sadly I don't have a Dutch oven so I had to place the cabbage rolls as a single layer in a few baking dishes. It still turned out wonderfully, and it's definitely made me put a mental note down to look for a really nice Dutch oven. I admit I used a touch less salt than the recipe (I think I'm weary of the amount of salt in my diet lately) but I'll definitely use the full amount next time. That amount of salt divided by all the people eating ended up as nothing, really, so that was my mistake! All the wonderful flavours still made up for the less salt though! So yummy! (Though I did salt the onions. Very wise words!)
Sorry for the lengthy comments. I've been a lurker for quite a while now; I love your website and all of your videos and this is the first time I was able to finally try one of your recipes so I just had to rave :) Now my only problem now is what to make next. So many choices!
Oh and before I forget, my boyfriend told me he tried your method of making prime rib but tried it with roast beef and said it came out perfectly! I'm keeping my eyes open for the perfect opportunity to try your method now :) - March 1, 2009 at 8:18 PM

Thanks! You made my day! :-)

Wow! Just finished having dinner with my hubby, and boy are we impressed with the way my Pane di Granoturco, & the Stuffed Cabbage roll came out for dinner today, Mahalo so much for these recipes Pleas keep up the good work....I will definitely share these recipes & your web site.
Sincerely Nancy - May 23, 2009 at 12:01 AM
I just saw this recipe and am eager to try it out. Is this something than can be done in a slow cooker in lieu of the dutch oven?
- June 7, 2009 at 1:45 PM
- Chef John said...
probably, but ive never tried. I don't have a SC.
- June 7, 2009 at 1:46 PM

These look awesome. Later this week I plan to make a batch. I am pretty much a "noob" to the whole cooking thing, and therefore ask if I can freeze these? Can I freeze them after I make them for cooking later? Or cook first and then freeze? Thanks for any reply.
- September 17, 2009 at 12:33 PM
- Chef John said...
i believe they freeze better after being cooked and cooled

you know what I do?
i put the cabbage roll in a flour and bake it for few minutes on both sides so there's no chance for them to "release", if you know what I mean. sorry for my bad english, i am from lithuania.
are there any more visitors from my country? if u check the statistics... ;) - January 11, 2010 at 10:52 AM

So happy for your videos, it was much easier watching how this dish was done, I made some of this cabbage and it was absolutely fabulous.Thank you!
- January 30, 2010 at 7:20 PM
Thank you for all your recipes, they are great. I can't stop watching your videos. :)
Here in Romania, we also make stuffed cabbage. Sometimes we use leaves of sour kraut instead of fresh cabbage.
But for a twist to this recipe try adding thyme and dill in the meat mixture, 2 bay leaves in the water and a little butter.
Oh, and for extra flavor, you can add with the cabbage rolls a couple of stuffed bell peppers with the same meat mixture.
Give it a try and serve with a couple of spoons of sour cream on top.

I really like your site and channel and I wanted to thank you for it.
Also, I had something really similar to this today, in Croatia (and all the ex Yugoslavian countries) we have a traditional meal called 'sarma'. The difference is that we make it from sour cabbage, with a lot less tomatoes and we season it a little different.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarma_(food) You should try it =)
Oh, and we freeze this all the time, after cooked. - February 6, 2012 at 8:46 AM

Thank you for your recipe Chef John. Will try it very soon. So have you tried your recipe without the egg like Mama suggested. :) Just curious how both versions taste.

So what is a lumen, anyway?
Well, Merriam-Webster defines it thusly:
lu·men noun \ˈlü-mən\
plural lumens also lu·mi·na
Definition of LUMEN
1 : the cavity of a tubular organ or part
The Blinder Arc 1.7? 170 lumens.
The Blinder Arc 5.5? 550
Compare that to this rock, which has exactly zero lumens:
Not only that, but good luck mounting it on your handlebars.
In fact, I got so many lumens I may have to give some away, but one thing at a time. In fact, I haven't even tested them yet, which I'm looking forward to doing, even though I live in New York City where there are streetlights everywhere, except for certain sections of greenway, which I don't use at night anyway because I'm afraid of getting jumped.
Still, the lights should be good for a laugh, and I can't wait to mount all four lights and see how the average salmoning Citi Biker reacts to 1,440 lumen-strong blast of light to the face.
I bet I burn their faces like Richard Dreyfuss in "Close Encounters" after he sees the spaceship:
And that's not all. Coincidentally (and don't tell Knog), Jet Lites has also sent me their "F3," which has 1,000 freaking lumens!
I think somebody's going to be doing some after-dark mountain-style bicycling this season [indicates self with thumbs], though I'm going to have to find someone to come with me, because the only thing that scares me more than getting jumped is nocturnal animals, and I imagine my first ride with the F3 would go something like this:
Seriously though, look at this:
Now tell me that's not horrifying.
Sadly, I think it's going to be many weeks before rugged all-terrain mountain biking is an option, since all this melting snow is going to leave the area trails looser than a nonagenarian's stool. See, this is the time of year when the trunk-rack-and-full-suspension set descends upon the trails after not having touched a bike since November and proceeds to leave gigantic ruts and gouges everywhere as they make videos of themselves riding over the same small log over and over again. They wear their mud-splattered full-face helments and Monster Energy Drink jerseys like badges of honor, though to me their ensembles call to mind the protective gear worn by the mentally challenged and the seizure-prone.
I however, am more conscientious, and while I may be too lazy to help maintain the trails I at least try not to make extra work for the suckers who do.
Speaking of melting snow, I hereby withdraw every complaint I've ever made regarding New York City's clearing of greenways, because we've got nothing on our neighbors in Westchester County, where I foolishly attempted to use the South County Trailway last Sunday. I know from experience they never clear this thing, but I figured that by now all the snow would be gone. Sadly, I was mistaken, and my first indication that I was making a mistake was this disgusting pile of filthy snow blocking the entrance:
This sordid snowcone was covered in chocolate sprinkles--or, more accurately, dogshit:
You know, cyclists get a lot of crap. We're smug. We run red lights. We go too fast in the park. We block traffic, our bike lanes take away car parking, we yell "On your left!" while wearing stupid outfits, and blah blah blah.
I want to know where all the hatred is for dog owners, who are a thousand times more smug than cyclists, and whose dogs do something our bikes don't do, which is leave shit everywhere. (I mean really, even bike messengers are toilet trained.) Oh, also, dogs bite people. Sure, I could conceivably hit you with my bicycle, but at least my front wheel wasn't chewing my ass moments beforehand. (Though I guess it may have rolled through your dog's shit.) Worst of all, 100% of dog owners think they have control over their dogs, when in reality maybe 1% of them actually do. How many times have you been riding in the woods when some giant dog explodes out of the underbrush and almost takes you down? Then the distant owner calls out some command, like "Helios, come!," and Helios is like, "Save it, yuppie" and just keeps doing whatever the hell he wants, including trying to sniff your crotch. Then when the owner passes with his stupid walking stick (because you need a walking stick in a park where you're never more than half a mile from your Subaru) he shrugs and give you the "Sorry" smirk, and in turn you give him the finger because he sucks at dogs.
So anyway, I figured that apart from the filthy mound of snow the rest of the trail would be fine, so I hiked over Mount Dogshit in my dumb roadie shoes, and while I managed to avoid the dogshit I succeeded in getting iced out of my stupid roadie pedals. Then everything's fine for a mile or so, until I get to this:
Obviously on a real bike that's no problem, but on a Fred bike with skinny tires and those curved-type handlebars like they have in the Tour de France, it was a nuisance--as was this, which I encountered soon after:
Still, I kept going, and eventually got to this:
So they don't do anything about the snow and ice, which is irritating enough, but they could at least get rid of the fucking abandoned snowmobiles:
By the way, I should point out that this is a rail trail, and while Justice Breyer is all worried about bicycles running through people's houses, maybe he should be more concerned about the freaking snowmobiles--though it would be pretty awesome if one of these flew off the trail, though a bay window, and onto someone's dining room table.
Anyway, I'd totally have taken that snowmobile home if I'd been riding a bakfiets.
At this point, I realized I'd have to give up on the trail, but before heading back to the streets I stopped to urinate, at which point I discovered the frozen corpse of the rider:
Just kidding!
Though if it was him I'd be tempted to point out that he's not wearing a helment.
Lastly, via a reader, here's exactly where not to place a bell:
Though I guess in the absence of actually stopping you can ring it frantically and hope people get out of your way.

Psalm 111
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion—Holy and reverend is His name—The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
1 Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
3 His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.
5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

Selling via rent to own can be an excellent option that many Houston homeowners fail to consider. Learn more about how the process works and what benefits you will receive in our latest post!
A rent to own agreement can be an excellent way for a Houston homeowners to sell their house fast. The financial benefits are very rewarding as is the security of a regular income from the property. That said, there are some things a seller should be aware of when using a rent to own agreement to sell a house fast in Houston. Keep reading to learn what they are and how you can create a rent to own agreement that will protect your best interest while helping you to sell your house fast in Houston!
Handling Default
While the odds of your potential buyers defaulting on the agreement is relatively low, you'll need to know what to do if it happens. Until your potential buyer is able to get a traditional loan and pay off their debt to you, the property will still be in your name. Much like a bank, if your tenant isn't paying, is causing damage to the house, or is somehow defying the agreement set in place, they are running the risk of foreclosure, while you will be able to retain full ownership, holding on to the down payment.
Creating A Legal Contract
A rent to own agreement should be very comprehensive as to protect both the buyer and the seller. It should contain clauses highlighting who is responsible for what, important dates, and penalties for violation of the agreement. You don't want to leave room for any discrepancy or disagreement between you and your potential buyer. To ensure your agreement is legally binding, reach out to a local real estate attorney or call FIT Acquisitions to help you facilitate the rent to own process.
Finding The Right Tenants
Using a rent to own agreement opens up a whole new world of potential buyers. People who couldn't quite qualify for traditional funding due to a low credit score or lack of down payment may be able to meet the qualifications set forth in your agreement. There are many great buyers out there who are being held back due to a blemish on their credit report. The key is to find the buyers of genuine character who will follow through on their obligation to you. Once the right tenants are found, you will create a win-win situation for all parties involved. Keep in mind that there is a reason traditional banks had denied them in the past, so be sure to do your homework on your potential buyer before entering into an agreement.
Being Back Where You Started
While it may not happen often, you do run the risk of your tenant being unable to buy at the end of the lease term. This means you will still be the owner and can either try to list at this point or enter into another rent to own agreement. While this may seem frustrating, you can actually come out ahead from a financial standpoint. Sure you didn't sell the house, but you were able to collect a higher than average rent plus a non-refundable down payment for your troubles. Who knows, the market may rise dramatically during this time and you may be able to sell for even more than you would have before the agreement!
Selling via rent to own in Houston can be very beneficial to homeowners looking for a way to quickly make money off of a property they own. Our team can help you understand the risks and the reward so you can make the selling decision that is right for you!

What should we do initially with already existing contacts?
How to sync Google Workspace directory users to SendGrid contacts?
We're currently looking for partners and distributors in different regions. If you're interested, please feel free to contact us.
Start syncing Google Workspace and SendGrid contacts with SyncPenguin! We simply ensure that all your customer data is automatically synced between the apps, without duplicates or any corner cases to worry about.
With SyncPenguin you can:
- Merge historical contact data.
- Add filters, conditions, and custom rules to the sync.
- Add custom fields to the field mapping.
This guide explains in detail how to create, configure and start the sync.
If you'd like to start syncing right away, feel free to create an account and set up the sync on your own. Go back to the guide in case of any ambiguity or questions. You can also contact us for any questions, requests, or feedback.
Step 1. Create a SyncPenguin account
The first step is to create a SyncPenguin account. We offer a free 14-day trial (without a credit card) to make sure everything works well before your commitment. Please follow the link below to create an account.
Step 2. Create the sync
The next step is to create a sync in the Synchronizations section of the dashboard by clicking the + New sync button. You'll see a wizard page, where you have to do the following three steps:
- Choose Google Workspace Directory Users for the first app.
- Then choose SendGrid Contacts for the second app.
- Then select syncing direction.
- Then click the Create button.
Step 3. Provide access to Google Workspace and SendGrid
Now that your sync is created, the next important step is to grant SyncPenguin access to your contact data. You'll see two Account sections for both apps involved in the sync. Below we explain how to connect and configure accounts.
How to connect Google Workspace?
The Google Workspace Directory Users account connection section will look like this:
How to connect SendGrid?
The SendGrid Contacts account connection section will look like this:
Please make sure both apps are properly connected before starting the contact sync.
If you're concerned about the security of your private data, please check out the Security Practices page.
Step 4. Sync settings
In the Sync settings section you have the ability to adjust some of the default properties of your integration flow:
- The name of your sync.
- Sync direction (two-way or one-way).
- Sync interval (by default the sync is triggered every 10 minutes).
Additionally, in Field mappings & rules you can customize the way contact data is mapped between the apps, or add some filters or custom rules to the sync behavior. This is done using our simple no-code visual interface, which allows you to do both simple adjustments as well as implement complex custom scenarios.
You can learn more about our customization interface here.
Step 5. Start the sync
The last step is to start the sync. To do that, click the Start syncing button.
You'll then be prompted with the following options:
- Only sync new data, meaning anything that will be added or updated starting from now.
- Merge Google Workspace Directory Users to SendGrid Contacts: take all Google Workspace Directory Users and add/merge them to SendGrid Contacts.
What should we do initially with already existing contacts?
Once you make your choice, just click Start syncing. In case you decide to do the initial merge, it'll be instantly queued. Once it's done, we'll be checking for contact changes every now and then (depending on the sync interval specified) and syncing accordingly. Each sync execution can be seen in the Sync history at the bottom of the sync page.
