By a very slim chance I was able to take a yoga class provided in replacement for PE my first year of high school. I had only seen petite ladies dressed in white, in feminie product commercials do this 'stretchy stuff'. So I thought, hey, easy A. Turns out it was beyond what I interpreted. WAY MORE. Physical practice was just the tip of the iceberg and I was already struggling. I'm thankful yoga came in at such a vital time in my life to teach me how to manage/cope better with the world around me.
ULP serves not just momentarily. The efforts are invested in our youth to create a space that teaches how to best care for self and others. These young individuals can carry the tools they accumulate throughout their lives. ULP is a legacy; planting the seeds for a garden we may never see bloom.
I also currently work with the elderly, or volunteer with the SPCA .When I'm relaxing I'm with my dog, hiking, being crafty, cooking, or riding my bike.
My Mantra: "To love is a radical act." I tell myself this constantly. It is easy to fall into nonloving actions, words, and thoughts. For love I want to be extremely progressive- a radical for love.

I didn't get going early enough this morning to go work out at the gym. I guess I didn't really want to go to the crowded one after all. I hope the floor gets done at the gym I usually go to. I did, however, do the obligatory half hour on the treadmill here at home with a hill simulation.
I knit some more on the first Jaywalker sock. It's a really hard pattern to 'tink' (knit backwards) if I make a mistake. I found it easier to just rip it back several rows and re-knit. I have turned the heel, finished the gusset decreases and have about 3" (7cm) of the foot done.
Chiminey Cricket came at the appointed time and has rendered the fireplace and chimney "safe". Goody, goody. As soon as we get some crisp weather, we're going to fire up that baby.
Today was the 2nd anniversary of the death of Skip's father, Archie. Skip first met the realtor up at my MIL's house to 'get the ball rolling' on the sale of the house. He then went to visit his mother in the nursing home. It was a good thing for him to do. Their visit lasted about an hour and was quite pleasant, according to Skip. I think it did them both good.
Tonight was the Sit 'n Knit at Kniterary. The regulars were there plus a new person (to me). I left just before 9pm to get home in time for "Grey's Anatomy".
I've been lazy about taking pictures. I got a nice one of Ollie today I wanted to put on Catbook (Facebook). I need to take photos of the Jaywalker sock in progress. Maybe tomorrow.
Tomorrow Scooter arrives for the weekend. He's growing up. Today he told Skip to meet him at the subway station tomorrow rather than in front of the school. I will likely join my former colleagues for a brew after they finish work.

Eat: Seafood and Kitsch
The title of this post is something of a misnomer, as you cannot, of course, eat kitsch. If you could, though, Paradise Cove Beach Cafe would be sure to serve it up, in vast quantities, with maraschino cherries on top.
H1 and I spent the last week in California, getting some sun in (me*) and some training in (him*). This was what he wanted to do for his birthday week - fly clear across the country to spend his days getting up early and cycling up mountains. Who was I to deny him?
Thankfully, he's pretty** good at the cycling, especially when hills are involved, so we were able to make the most of our afternoons and check out what else California has to offer. We started, as you do, with a seafood dinner in Malibu.
Dining out in Malibu means driving down the Pacific Coast Highway and choosing from one of the countless shack-y restaurants along the coastline. There are a couple of nicer places, but neither H1 nor I was in the mood for fine dining. Why would you be, when you're in a place as perfectly stuck in the '70s as Malibu?
We went with Paradise Cove Beach Cafe for many good reasons, including the fact that it was highly rated on Yelp, and dining at Paradise Cove Beach Cafe gave you access to the beach*. Without a receipt indicating that we had eaten there, it would cost $30 to park by the beach. We found out why this is when we looked at the menu, and saw that the people who own the restaurant also used to own the beach, and almost certainly still do (the menu was a bit vague on this point). Coming from the land where the beaches belong to everyone, I've never thought people should be allowed to own beaches. $30 parking confirms this for me.
We didn't pay it though, because we ate! Which is obviously what they want, and was fortunately what we wanted also. It was a windy, overcast day in Malibu, so we hunkered down into a booth, and ordered drinks and snacks from our lovely, embarrassingly clichéd teenage Californian waiter.
We took our time with these, which is usually pretty difficult in American restaurants. If you're in a nicer place they'll probably want to turn the table at some stage. If you're in a diner-y type of place, they're used to people just eating and running. H1 and I don't bother going out unless we're going to dine****, which means we're used to sending the waiter away multiple times while we linger over entrées.
Paradise Cove Beach Cafe was no exception. I don't like seeing (and getting rid of) the waiter five times in half an hour, but I do understand why the waiters do it. Enough customers equate good service with speedy service that they've learnt their tips rely on it. I tend to just explain what we're doing, and make sure I leave a good tip to try to break that association in their minds. And, of course, I order mains - but only when we're good and ready.
Being in Malibu meant seafood was pretty much a given. H1 went with a swordfish burger, while I let the weather trick me into clam chowder. I LOVE clam chowder, especially when it's grey outside, but it's one of those dishes I'll almost certainly never make. I wouldn't be able to do it justice, because I'd see how much cream the recipe wanted me to add, find myself completely incapable of adding that much cream to anything, and end up with clam chowder that's just a bit disappointing.
This clam chowder was awesome - they did not skimp on the cream - but, having eaten clam chowder in four different cities now, I have to say that east coast beats west coast. Sorry, guys. Cape Cod's taking the trophy*****.
Overall, though, the meal was fab. FABULOUS. Whether that was down to the food or the kitsch, I'm a bit unsure, but considering that I'm now ready to get a tan, grow my hair long, buy a surfboard******, and move to Malibu, I suspect Paradise Cove did a bit of a number on me.
*Unnecessary clarifications.
**RIDICULOUSLY good, I should say.
***Yes, Paradise Cove itself.
****There's a big difference between dining and eating. I try to not just 'eat' very often.
*****There is no actual trophy, so don't hold your breath, Cape Cod.
******Would you believe, these are all things that I'm totally unable to do. Well, I could probably buy a surfboard, but I wouldn't be able to use it for anything except decoration.

This Necklace was a gift given to a mammoth named Manny.
After a long journey to return Roshan, a baby, to his tribe Manny, a mammoth, and Sid, a ground sloth found Roshan's tribe. His father, Runar, thought Manny was trying to hurt him, so the tribe's wolves barked and alerted the tribe. While the tribe was running toward them, Runar stopped them, for he realized that Manny was giving him his son. Runar was so happy he gifted the mammoth with this necklace, thanking him for returning his son. It's unknown if Manny still has the necklace and what's happened to it.

Now, I'm going to go through what's involved in processing Longjing and how you can enjoy this beautiful tea. As I mentioned in a much earlier post on tea production, the manufacturing process will have a great impact on a tea's uniqueness in appearance, flavour, and aroma.
Longjing is produced in the Hangzhou area of the Zhejiang Province in China, though you can find cheaper imitations in other areas which will affect the quality as well as the price tag of the tea. The tea is harvested in the early hours of the day beginning around April. The top two leaves as well as the bud are required to create Longjing. After plucking, the leaves are spread upon bamboo trays for withering. Once the leaves have lost some of their moisture and become much softer and pliable, they are then roasted in a wok to prevent further oxidation. In order to achieve the unique appearance of Longjing, experienced tea masters work their hands in a set of steps called the "8 Hand Movements". This procedure requires the tea master to grasp, toss, shake, pile, throw, buckle, press, and grind the tea leaves in the wok and sometimes running the leaves through a roller until they take their shape. Apparently Longjing was designed to resemble the flat sword-shaped leaves Emperor Qianlong retrieved from his sleeves when tending to his ill mother at her bedside.
|The 8 Hand Movements of Longjing.
Roasting will also reduce additional moisture still remaining in the leaves. After roasting is complete, the leaves are placed on bamboo trays and allowed to cool down for about an hour. The leaves are then sorted according to size, removing any stems or broken leaves, before going through another cycle of roasting to further reduce the moisture content to 5%, a final cool down, and sorting. Longjing is ready for the market!
|Dry Longjing Tea Leaves.
To prepare this fine tea, I follow these steps:
1. For 1 cup of water, measure out 1 teaspoon of Longjing tea and place it in a teapot.
2. In a kettle, bring water to a full boil and allow it to cool down to 75°C.
3. Pour water over the tea leaves and infuse for about 1 ½ - 2 minutes.
4. Pour the liquor into your cup and enjoy!
The tea leaves produce a golden-yellow, pale-green colour. Depending on your senses, you may detect sweet, delicate, vegetal aromas. I found the taste mild, sweet, and a bit nutty. There was no aftertaste or astringency.
We're not done yet! Tea leaves go a long way. With additional infusions, the leaves will continue to unfurl, releasing their aroma and flavour. For each infusion, I extend the brew time 30 seconds longer than the previous brew time in order to capture the flavours. I find I'm able to produce 2 more infusions before the leaves lose their flavour and can be discarded.
There you have it, the delicious legend in a cup!

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Lehman Bros. analyst Ravi Suria is still not convinced that Amazon.com Inc. is capable of generating enough working capital to survive.
In a research report Tuesday, the convertibles analyst, who last year warned that Amazon's AMZN, -4.01% credit quality was at risk, did it again. Suria cautioned that the cash is depleting steadily and could "trigger a creditor squeeze" in the second half of the year.
Not surprisingly, Amazon doesn't agree. "You can't take this guy seriously," Amazon spokesman Bill Curry retorted. "This report is silly and chock full of errors."
Investors apparently thought so too. Shares of Amazon were down slightly in early trading, but moved solidly into the green. The stock closed out the session with a robust $1.38 gain, or 9.5 percent, to $15.81. Even then, the price is still awfully close to its 52-week low of $13.56, reached only a month ago.
Suria said he believes that the world's largest online retailer's liquidity has been in constant decline since the first quarter of last year. "Without additional capital infusion, the working capital level is expected to dip into negative territory during 2001," he told clients.
The result, he said, is "considerable downside risk to revenue and cash estimates for the second half."
By Suria's estimates, working capital is a far more important metric of liquidity because it better balances a company's current assets and liabilities. That's particularly true, he said, when it comes to retailers whose cash positions generally ebb and flow with the seasons. The amount of cash on hand takes into account those temporary totals that might include, say, bills that haven't been paid or lower inventory levels.
At Amazon, he said, what happened in fiscal 2000 was that the e-tailer's assets, most of which are cash, rose a paltry 7 percent to $1.36 billion by the end of the fourth quarter.
However, liabilities, which include those payables and other obligations, soared 72 percent to $975 million.
That, he said, drained working capital -- or current assets minus liabilities -- to $386 million at the end of the fourth quarter, down from $504 million at the end of the third quarter. That's a far cry from the $1.1 billion the company referred to in its cash and marketable securities item, he said.
And considering all the cash that's expected to flow out of the company this year and particularly in the first half to cover those bills, Amazon will find itself is a cashless pit.
"This is our primary liquidity concern," Suria said.
"We believe that once the working capital levels turn negative in the second half, the company is likely to face a creditor squeeze as suppliers tighten up on trade items," he said.
To be sure, running a business with working capital that's in the red is not an unusual situation for retailers. The very nature of the business is dictated by consumers' shopping habits, which could leave them with long periods of little cash on hand.
In the meantime, however, retailers rely on its vendors and lines of credit to cover the costs. Many of them, however, have profits from sales that cover payments and fixed charges, consequently leveling the seasonal ups and downs.
Because Amazon has yet to turn a profit, Suria said, its working capital gets spent continually. "By definition, the company will continue to bleed liquidity until it starts generating enough cash from operations to make interest payments," Suria said.
Absolutely untrue, said Curry. "We just gave guidance that we'll end the year with $900 million in cash," he said, referring to the 2001 outlook wrapped into the fiscal-year earnings report released Jan. 30.
"There's absolutely no 'going concern' qualification for our auditors," Curry said. "The financials are at the printer now. It's a clean opinion.
"As we said then, while we may elect to raise cash this year for strategic reasons, we don't have the need to do so," he said.

UK storms: Hammond says climate change 'clearly a factor'
Climate change is "clearly a factor" in the period of stormy weather the UK has been experiencing, the defence secretary has said.
Philip Hammond told the Andrew Marr Show the storms and flooding had caused "quite serious damage" to the country's infrastructure.
Earlier, Labour leader Ed Miliband said global climate change was an issue of national security for Britain.
Their comments come as more flooding is expected in many parts of the country.
Despite a let-up in the stormy weather, there are 14 severe flood warnings - indicating a "danger to life" - for south-east England close to the River Thames and two for the Somerset Levels, which have experienced weeks of flooding.
As well as the impact to the transport network, about one million properties had their power cut off in the last week and thousands in southern England and Wales are still without power, according to the Energy Networks Association.
'Science is clear'
Some Conservative MPs and peers have challenged the argument that the recent storms were connected to global temperature changes.
Former chancellor Lord Lawson, who is among the most prominent climate change sceptics, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme on Thursday it was "not the case" that the storms were due to global warming.
However, Mr Miliband said: "What we've learnt from what's happened over the last few weeks, tragically, is that the costs of not acting on climate change in terms of the billions of pounds that are lost in terms of businesses and families as well as the human costs are greater than the costs of acting."
He added: "Climate change will mean more floods and more storms and that's why we've got to treat it like any other national security issue and that means uniting as a country behind a national effort to do more to defend against the floods, to invest in clean energy and to show leadership internationally to persuade other countries to be part of the fight against climate change."
Earlier, he told the Observer that "because of political division in Westminster we are sleepwalking into a national security crisis on climate change".
Mr Hammond said climate change is "clearly happening".
"It is clearly a factor in the weather patterns that we are seeing", he said
"That's why we are investing significant amounts of money in increasing our flood resilience in the UK."
He said although the floods were "a terrible tragedy" for those affected, "hundreds of thousands of properties" had been protected from flooding "by the investment we've made over recent years".
A spokeswoman for the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) said Britain had adopted some of the most "ambitious climate change targets in the world" to reduce greenhouse gases by 50% by 2030.
The government will spend £2.4 billion on flood management and protection from coastal erosion over four years, which is "more than ever before", the spokesman said.
Liberal Democrat energy secretary Ed Davey also challenged Mr Miliband to "stop threatening to choke the renewables industry with his price freeze".
'No definitive answer'
It comes as the US Secretary of State John Kerry has urged the global community to act against climate change, saying "the window of time" is closing to prevent the worst consequences.
His comments coincide with the release of new research, which suggests the main system that helps determine the weather over northern Europe and North America may be changing.
The study, presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Chicago, showed the so-called jet stream through the upper atmosphere had increasingly taken a longer, meandering path resulting in weather remaining the same for more prolonged periods.
Last week, the Met Office's chief scientist, Dame Julia Slingo, said there was "no definitive answer" as to what had caused the period of stormy weather in the UK but that "all the evidence suggests there is a link to climate change".
The independent Committee for Climate Change - which advises the government on emissions targets and climate change - has also said a greater priority should be given to flood defence and protection.
The committee itself said that while an extra £130m pledged by the government would bring some comfort to flooded communities, it would not address the rising long-term flood risk.
In its latest blog, the committee said the new money would primarily be spent on repairing and reinstating defences that had been damaged in the recent storms, and so help recover existing levels of protection.

How can I offer a better personal training experience to my clients?
How can I offer a better personal training experience to my clients?
102% increase in revenue
Tripled clientele
Improved retention
Marjolein Englebert, the founder of Allwaysfit, had a clear goal: she wanted to create a fitness business that valued respect, professionalism, and above all, fun. The result oriented business based in Schiedam helps their clients to become the best versions of themselves. With a good work ethic, Englebert was searching for an all-in-one management solution that would help her business run smoother, and offer a better experience to her clients.
Starting out as an independent contractor, Englebert didn't feel a real need for a software tool. "But, as my business grew, and I kept doing all the paperwork manually, it started taking up hours of my time." With the creation of invoices, this was an especially big challenge for Englebert, "I used to create them myself in an online document". The time it took to create them was overwhelming and as a result, she was struggling to get a clear overview of paid and unpaid invoices.
She soon realized that if she wanted to keep growing as a business, she would need tools that could help her work more efficiently with financing and client engagement. And that's when she found Virtuagym. "I found Virtuagym through a Belgian colleague because I educate people on fitness all over the Benelux. We got into a discussion about the best way to process our administration, which is when she recommended Virtuagym."
While she was initially looking for a software that could help her with her financial tasks, she found that Virtuagym offered more efficiency-boosting tools. "The scheduling software is great for my clients. They can easily schedule an appointment for training or for a nutrition session. I let them do that independently, so they are free to sign up and cancel their classes. That saves me a bunch of time, but it's also a better experience for my clients."
With the consultancy service offered by Virtuagym, she was able to quickly align her business with the fitness software. As a result, she was able to tackle her initial challenges with efficiency in no time. "Processing invoices has been one of the major time savers for me. Especially because my accountant is also connected to Virtuagym. When I used to process invoices manually, it took me 5 minutes per invoice. Now it takes me 15 seconds to process 100."
With the software she was also able to boost both her acquisition and retention numbers, Englebert tripled her amount of clients and was able to provide high-quality service to all of them, resulting in a revenue increase of nearly 102%. "Because I save so much time, it allows me to properly support all these new clients. It's fair to say I picked Virtuagym at the right time."
Allwaysfit is a result oriented business that helps clients reach their goals. They monitor all aspects of a client that can have an influence on their performance and ability to reach them. Before, the monitoring of progress was filled in on the all too familiar clipboard. They've now moved their administrative tasks to an online platform which allows them to schedule appointments and create invoices too.
"Having an overview of client performance online is a huge advantage for me. Again, it saves massive amounts of paperwork. Now, just by looking into the system I see everything that I need." Virtuagym helps Allwaysfit to stay organized, ensuring that Englebert now has the tools she needs and offers quality guidance to her customers. The team knows who is scheduled to come in for a session and can track client payments, helping them with efficiency and saves them time. "They helped us grow from 44 clients to 106 in 2016. The sophisticated app and software system makes administration run smoothly and our efficiency has improved a lot".

I have a new in the box T/C New Englander 12 ga. shotgun with a fixed choke I received when my grandfather passed away.
The breach is removed from the barrel, other than that its brand new.
Does anyone know the value of this BP shotgun?
I was hoping to trade for an upland bird gun in 28ga., or at least a start of a trade.
I also have a couple of custom shop Hawken 50cal barrels with the tang. All polished up pretty.

This bong is one of the biggest pipes around, it's perfect for parties. Large base can be filled with water and ice providing cold smoke and hits.
While scientific research is scant, alternative materials that could be used instead of plastic are: glass, ceramics, stainless steel, or even bamboo, as all are much less likely to add to the harmful content of smoke. All metals can ionize or vaporize in sufficient heat, potentially transfering metal to the user's lungs. To date, metal-containing bongs have not been widely implicated as a source of heavy metal toxicity (the proposed link between aluminum and dementias is poorly founded, as proteinmyoglobin, showing coloured alpha helices. This protein was the first to have its structure solved by X-ray crystallography by Max Perutz and Sir John Cowdery Kendrew in 1958, which led to them receiving a Nobel Prize in Chemistry. A protein is a complex, aggregates seem to trap a extensive rant of metal ions, and aluminum is the majority plentiful metal in the Earth's crust).

Whitney Wolfe is the CEO of the popular dating site Bumble. This dating site is very unique because it allows women to be in control. On this site, a man cannot approach a woman's profile and try to hit on her. A female profile user will have to make the first move and let a man know that she is interested in him. Once this happens, they can then carry on a conversation and hopefully, it will lead to a relationship.
Bumble's CEO intentionally made Bumble with this type of hook because she wanted women to be in control. Whitney Wolfe does not hate men. As a matter of fact, she is married to Michael Herd. He was a very influential figure in her decision to start Bumble. Wolfe love her husband dearly and they were both married late in 2017.
The reason why Wolfe started Bumble is that she wanted something more than just a dating site. She wanted a site where women could exercise a feminist perspective. Feminism is at the heart of Bumble. Wolfe knows that the world is still dominated by men. However, she wants to slowly start changing this reality. Wolfe is no longer content with gender inequality or sexual dominance by males.

Whitney Wolfe used to work for another dating site called Tinder. After experiencing sexual harassment and enduring bias because of her gender status, she left the company. She ended up suing Tinder and won a settlement. Shortly after she left Tinder, Wolfe wanted to start her social network called Merci. This social network was going to be for females only. The young entrepreneur needed money to make her idea a reality.
Through a series of events Whitney Wolfe ended up in a meeting with the founder of Badoo. His name is Andrey Andreeve and Badoo is the number one dating site on the planet. When Wolfe told him about Merci, Andreeve disagreed with the idea. He told her he would not fund a social network exclusively for women. That's when he influenced her to create a dating site with a feminist slant. Wolfe didn't agree at first.
Her husband Michael Herd (who was her boyfriend during that time) discussed the offer with her. He helped her to realize that Bumble was a good idea and not to be quick to dismiss Andreeve's offer. Wolfe gave in and then received the funding to get the site started. Bumble is now a reality and Whitney is a revolutionary figure that is forever changing the way that men and women interact with each other.

Two items of caution from God: 1. There is only one Holy Spirit. "There is one body and one spirit, just as you are called in one hope of your calling." (Eph. 4:4) 2. The world is full of counterfeits. "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." (1 John 4:1) The Bible gives this warning for a good reason. The right Spirit must indwell us.
When John the Baptist said of Jesus, in Matthew 3, "He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire," it is not possible to pin down the "you" to any individual or group because it would occur over a span of time and it would occur at God's discretion. Hebrews 2:4 tells us that various "gifts of the Holy Spirit" were given "according to His own will." One thing is certain, man does not have charge of this to control it.
In Acts 1:2 we read that before Jesus was taken up He "gave commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen." It is important to remember this. These were chosen men. At verse 5 He said to them, "John truly baptized with water but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now." Looking at this promise and observing its fulfillment in Acts 2, we see that the "pouring out" of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost was what Jesus referred to as baptism in the Holy Spirit.
He also promised them special power. At verse 8 Jesus told them, "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be witnesses to me in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." When the Spirit came the power came. This was not a random act. These men were chosen to be His witnesses and God chose to give them power to confirm this fact.
Being baptized in response to the Gospel message is a different thing from being baptized in the Spirit. If the Holy Spirit Himself fell on every person who is baptized, as in Holy Spirit baptism, they would receive power as the apostles did and speak in other tongues as the recipients did in each New Testament case of Holy Spirit baptism. If it were the same action it would produce the same result. But it doesn't.
In whatever sense the Spirit comes into a person at baptism, in that same sense He remains, for the scripture says many times that He "dwells" in us. To see the difference between the "gift of the Holy Spirit" and the physical presence of the Holy Spirit, look at the picture given of it in Acts chapters 6 and 8.
In chapter 6 they chose seven men who were "full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom." (Vs.3) One of those chosen was Philip. (Vs. 5) In chapter 8 an angel of the Lord came to Philip and told him to go southward toward Gaza. He was full of the Holy Spirit and yet an angel came and told him to do this. When he got there he found not only the eunuch there but also the Holy Spirit was there. The Spirit spoke to him, telling him to go join the eunuch in the chariot. He was full of the Spirit and yet the Spirit was outside him talking to him. How can this be?
Obviously the Spirit was in him in a non-physical sense.The Bible tells us that God dwells in us, Christ dwells in us, and so does the Holy Spirit. It also says that we are in God and we are in Christ. If we try to see these as physical indwellings it will surely be confusing. Most religious people make this same mistake in regard to Jesus' statement that the Spirit "will convict the world of sin." (John 16:8) They miss the process. They fail to see that "the message preached" is the procedure by which the Spirit does that, so they think the Spirit will personally convince each person.
In the same way that the word is central in that procedure, it is also central to the indwelling of God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Jesus expressed it this way: "If anyone loves me he will keep my word; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him." (John 14:23)
John pictured it this way: "Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either. He who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father." (1 John 3:23-24) Obviously then if the word abides in us the Godhead abides in us and we abide in them. This what the Bible says, not my theory.
We may not be capable of understanding this fully but we can accept it by faith. Consider the fact that God's word is living and powerful. God does not have to leave heaven and execute what His word orders. "It will accomplish what I send it to do." (Isaiah 55:11)
But there is another concept of Spirit action, one that human minds conjure up, especially pagan cultures. God called that an "abomination." In Deut. 18 when the Israelites were about to enter Canaan, God warned them that the land was full of pagans who apply occult principles in their worship. He listed several specific items of it such as "diviners, interpreters of omens, soothsayers," etc.and said, "The lord your God has not appointed such for you." He said the people of the land do such things and that was why He was driving out those nations from before the Israelites. He said "All who do such things are an abomination."
Since the whole category of pagan concepts is extremely offensive to God, it is very important that we avoid being influenced by them in trying to relate to God. We can do this by holding closely to the Spirit's own specifications. God takes good care of the things beyond natural law that need to happen. Let's take care to do our job, which is obedience, and let the Spirit do His job in His own way.
Think about some facts. The Bible says there is one Holy Spirit, yet He dwells in many people at the same time. Obviously the meaning is not that the Spirit Himself leaves heaven and comes down and is incarnated physically in each one of us. That is the way pagans would think of it. There is another sense in which He dwells in us. When John said "Test the spirits" he also specified what the measurement standard is. At verse 13 he said, "By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us because He has given us of His Spirit." It is a mistake to isolate such a statement and interpret it according to human concepts. Rather, look at what else John said in the same place. In the previous verse he said, "No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us and His love has been perfected in us." If God leaves heaven and comes down to be in us when we love one another, we would see Him. But no one has seen God.
At verse 6 he said, "We are of God. He who knows God hears us." This is one characteristic of Spirit indwelling, acceptance of the truth. I have often said, "If the Spirit were dwelling in you, you would not be saying things that contradict His word in the Bible." Jesus said it in a most simple way. "If anyone loves me he will keep my word and my Father will love him and we will come to him and make our home with him." (John 14:23) So then, according to the Bible, not only does the Spirit of God dwell in us when we keep the word, but God and Christ do also. Yet the Bible says God is on His throne in heaven and Jesus is at His right hand and the Spirit is in God. If all three of these are in heaven how are they in us?
Do you believe that these three dwell in us? I do, in the sense that the Bible says they do. I do not believe the pagan concepts of Spirit indwelling. That is Satan's counterfeit, fiction designed to deceive and destroy. The "pseudo signs and wonders" of the lawless one are effective "in those who perish because they did not receive the love of the truth that they might be saved." (2 Thess. 2:9-10) Jesus said that many people who accept this deception will come before Him at the judgment with claims of having done miraculous things in His name. He will say to them, "I never knew you. Depart from me you who practice lawlessness." (Mat. 7:23) Lawlessness means they did not keep the word. They claimed Spirit indwelling and miraculous power without keeping the word.
The Bible connects Spirit indwelling with keeping the word. Jesus said, "The seed is the word of God." (Luke 8:11) "Take the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God." (Eph. 6:17) When people accept pagan concepts of the spirit they seem to lose sight of the importance of truth. Jesus said the Holy Spirit is "The Spirit of truth." (John 16:13)
In concepts such as "pentecostalism" human emotional expressions and excitement are mistaken for power and they miss the power in God's word. Because we gather to study the Bible and quietly learn from the inspired word, they think we are powerless. Some of our own brethren are now saying we are "dead," that we need to get hit with the Spirit to wake us up. But what did Jesus say? "They draw near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me." He added that they worship in vain, "teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." (Matthew 15:8-9) Very often those who have the most in the showcase have the least in the stockroom.
I understand the desire for a closer fellowship with God and I understand the desire to have His blessings on our life in this world. We can have this. But it is achieved by heartfelt commitment to His word, not by implementing human methods of stirring up physical and emotional excitement. There are an awful lot of lying charlatans in the world of religious fables, where no one proves anything and everyone claims all sorts of things. There is darkness there and false doctrines run rampant. But we have the "more sure word of prophecy confirmed." Yes, it takes faith to trust God for all that His word promises. But those who do will not be disappointed.

Winter pastel vinyl & black
Vinyl pencil skirt: Topshop Bralet: Missguided Tee: Ebay Love bangle: Ebay Fluffy cardigan: Primark Boots: Vagabond Body chain: Ebay
Alreeet guys, I am so in love with this new vinyl pencil skirt from Topshop. Vinyl and milkshake colours are set to be big for the A/W trends. I love love the colour and fact its pvc like material is just so cool, it looks really funky and gives off a shine.Despite all its attractiveness, the skirt does have a flaw, unfortunately the material is awfully sticky in this heat! I walk like a penguin, and trying to slide it off proved a difficult task in today's heat! I felt like Ross from friends when he got his leather pants stuck haha. Anyway It will be fine in the colder months i'm hoping. The tee I'm wearing says 'It ain't Laurent without yves' and is from ebay, I love a good boyfriend tee me. I decided to throw in my new fluffy oversized cardigan because well its fluffy and that's another trend set to be big for A/W - Fluff and Fur YAY! The cardigan is from Primark and great for throwing over anything, its very versatile. Hope you are having a lovely bank holiday! x

The view from Lou's
A bit up the road from my Grandparent's ranch sits the glorious abode of their neighbor, Lou Rovano. While he lives in the greater bay area most of the time, he often spends weekends up in the wine country, growing grapes and making his own vintage. We took some time away from sawing and splitting to take a quick tour of his house, and try some of his delicious home made port.

Futures point to a slightly higher open as investors assess oil prices, Fed speeches
U.S. stock index futures pointed to a slightly higher open Tuesday, as investors geared up for new comments set to come out of the U.S. central bank, while keeping an eye on political developments. Dow Jones industrial average futures rose 32 points, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 futures gained 3.5 points and 9.5 points, respectively. Following the Bureau of Labor Statistics' latest nonfarm payrolls report—which revealed last Friday that the U.S. saw a loss of 33,000 jobs during September—investors will be paying close attention as to what leading members of the U.S. central bank will say on Tuesday. The Fed will also be of key importance when it comes to U.S. politics. In the final week of September, President Donald Trump stated that the person who would lead the U.S. central bank from 2018 would be announced in the coming weeks. In earnings news, Barracuda Networks is set to report its latest financial figures. Meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury is set to auction four separate bills on Tuesday. In other company news, Nvidia unveiled a new computer system that will help cars become fully autonomous. The company is also allowing some to access a virtual reality design platform. Nvidia's stock rose 4.4 percent in the premarket, and was the biggest riser in the S&P 500. Wal-Mart shares also rose before the bell, after the retail giant announced a $20 billion buyback program. The company also reiterated its fiscal 2018 earnings guidance. Meanwhile, Honeywell unveiled a corporate makeover on Tuesday that ties its growth more strongly to aerospace technology — the opposite of what activist investor Third Point Capital has urged since April. The results of the manufacturer's portfolio review announced before U.S. markets opened said it would spin off its home and ADI global distribution business and transportation systems into two independent, publicly-traded companies by the end of 2018. The company said the two businesses together generated annualized revenue of $7.5 billion. On the commodities front, oil prices traded in the black during early trade, with investors digesting the latest comments from a leading oil cartel. On Monday, OPEC's Secretary General Mohammed Barkindo told Reuters that there was "clear evidence" that the oil market was showing signs of rebalancing. At 7:27 a.m. ET, U.S. crude traded around $50.22 per barrel, while Brent hovered around $56.31. Overseas, European stocks were trading relatively flat in early market trade, while markets in Asia closed on a mostly higher note. Japan's Nikkei 225 rose 0.64 percent, or 132.8 points, to close at 20,823.51 after markets reopened for trade following a long weekend. The index had touched a fresh two-year high earlier in the session. Across the Korean Strait, South Korea's Kospi surged 1.64 percent to finish the session at 2,433.81 as blue-chip tech plays notched robust gains on optimism about profit expectations. Meanwhile, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index reversed early losses to climb 0.56 percent by 3:15 p.m. HK/SIN. Mainland markets extended their more than 1 percent rise in the previous session. The Shanghai Composite rose 0.27 percent to close at 3,383.5401, while the Shenzhen Composite surged 0.782 percent to end at 2,030.1779. Gold touched its highest in nearly two weeks on Tuesday, supported by a softer dollar and geopolitical tensions in Spain and North Korea, though gains were capped by expectations of another U.S. interest rate increase. Spot gold was up 0.6 percent at $1,291.90 an ounce, having earlier touched its highest since late September at $1,292.29. U.S. gold futures for December delivery climbed 0.7 percent to $1,294.50.

Seventy-five years ago today, Japan launched a treacherous surprise attack on the United States that killed over 2400 Americans at Pearl Harbor. So what really happened? And why is Obama's spokes imbecile dissing World War II vets?
From the brilliant historian Victor Davis Hanson:
Imperial Japan was not, as often claimed, forced into a corner by a U.S. oil embargo, which came only after years of horrific Japanese atrocities in China and Southeast Asia. Instead, an opportunistic and aggressive fascist Japan gambled that the geostrategy of late 1941 had made America uniquely vulnerable to a surprise attack.
By December 1, 1941, Nazi Germany, Japan's Axis partner, had reached the suburbs of Moscow. Japan believed that the German army would soon knock the Soviet Union out of the war.
Japan had also hedged its bets by signing a nonaggression pact with the Soviets. Japanese leaders assumed that even if communist Russia survived, Japan could avoid a costly land war on its rear flank. The U.S., not Japan, would likely have a two-front war.
By 1941, the Netherlands, France and Belgium had all been defeated and occupied by the Third Reich. Only the British remained of the original European anti-Axis allies, and London had been under constant aerial assault by the German Luftwaffe during the Blitz. Japan figured that Germany and Italy might soon win the war and wished to pile on before it ended.Japan had calculated that all of Europe's resource-rich Pacific and Asian colonies were now orphaned and up for grabs. By starting a Pacific war and knocking out the U.S., Japan could get its hands on the resources necessary to fuel its war machine.
British-held Singapore and the American bases in the Philippines were isolated and poorly defended. And they would be completely cut off once the U.S. Seventh Fleet and air arm were neutralized at Pearl Harbor.
Starting a war in the Pacific meant the Japanese would have easy access to huge supplies of oil, rubber, rice and strategic metals for their new-found mercantile empire, the Great East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.
The U.S. also had lost military deterrence. The Japanese had watched carefully as America did little to help its two closest allies: France and Great Britain. The former was easily overrun by the Nazis, the latter bombed unmercifully.
The Japanese figured that Americans were war-weary after World War I, and they were right. And as always, when the United States retreats from a leadership role in the world, the enemies of freedom crawl out from under various rocks and try to put their world domination plans into action. The Empire of Japan calculated wrong. When attacked, America responded ferociously, and rid the world of the Axis powers.
Now that Japanese Prime Minister Abe is going to visit Pearl Harbor, the Obama Regime's spokesflack says get over it. From The Daily Caller:
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said during a press conference Monday it was natural for World War II veterans to be "embittered" about Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's visit to Pearl Harbor, but they should get over it for the sake of America.
It was announced Monday that Abe will be the first Japanese leader to visit Pearl Harbor since it was hit by a surprise attack that killed 2,403 Americans and brought the U.S. into World War II. The visit reciprocates President Barack Obama's visit to Hiroshima earlier this year for the anniversary of the atomic bomb attack on the city.
And speaking of Obama, who along with his repellant wife, has shown great enthusiasm for travelling to Hawaii, will he be visiting Pearl Harbor today? No. In fact, based on the schedule the White House released, after he receives the Presidential Daily Brief at 10 a.m., he is unbooked for the day.
Unlike the One, many of you will be remembering the men who died at Pearl Harbor 75 years ago. If you have never had the opportunity to visit the U.S.S. Arizona, where some of them remain entombed in their watery graves, I can tell you that it is an extremely moving experience. I was unprepared for the emotion I would feel looking down into the ruin of the destroyed ship, thinking about the young men who perished. May they rest in peace and may God continue to bless the United States of America.

text: I think I'm one of the unlucky few who have the call quality problems noted previously, although I think I have it narrowed down to it being faulty hardware. In my situation I have very good reception plus good sound when I listen to a call through the back speaker and blue-tooth. So would I be correct in believing that the Inc has two separate speakers, one for the ear, the other for the back? Have you who have had poor call quality tested both speakers to see if it is consistanly poor in both? If this is the case then others who have this experience can quit trying/hoping for software fixes and just go the exchange route.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Samsung Galaxy Nexus' started by pc747, May 3, 2012.
I personally prefer the nexus. I really do not like the look of touchwiz at all. T
Why no softkeys ?
Yeah, I think I like the Nexus as well. Though I do like the white look a lot. I wish there was a white Nexus on Verizon. I was expecting a bit more from the SIII besides the hardware upgrades. There are some pretty cool features, but most are kind of impractical to me, and more just show off features to me.
there is a kit that you can do that yourself.
my bad that may be just for gsm version.
That GNEX had an extended battery in it?
Wow the SIII is going to be a fairly big device, thought it would be the same size as the Nexus.
Definitely like the Nexus better, was never a fan of touchwiz, everything just seemed too cluttered.
I hate the black notification bar with that wallpaper.
That physical home button + touch wiz kills the look.
Was really hoping they'd do something interesting with the GSIII but a bit of a let down to be honest.
The HTC one x seems like a much better phone than the s3. I'll stick with my gnex though neither make me want to give it up.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using DroidForums
Agreed. I like the One X a lot more.

Famous front doors
Your front door can be the first thing people notice about your house. It's the entrance to your world and where you welcome people to your home. Your front door can say a lot about you and when going through somebody else's front door you're expectations can be raised or lowered dependant on the size, colour and even the shape of the door.
There are a number of famous front doors known around the world for a number of reasons. Arguably, the most well known door around the world is Number 10 Downing Street. The historic office and home of the British Prime Minister is fronted by the black, shiny, Georgian door and flanked by a dutiful policeman. It is made of bullet-proof metal and has a quality gloss paint coating. It used to be made of solid oak but after the IRA attacks it was updated to the bullet-proof material.
Number 10 downing street front door
Westminster Abbey has the oldest door in Britain. The old door to the right as you go into Chapter house has been dated back to be a thousand years old. The door is made from oak and probably constructed from the woods surrounding London. It was put in place about 1050 when Edward The Confessor built Westminster Abbey next door to his palace at Westminster. Entering this door you know you are going back in time.
Westminster Abbey Door
Also in London you will find the door to 221b Baker Street. This is the home of the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes who was invented by the author, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. At the time Baker Street only ran to number 85 but in the 1930's the road was extended. Almost immediately the famous address started receiving post from Sherlock Holmes fans across the world. The new residents had to appoint someone to look after this post as there was so much! Today at number 237 Baker Street you will find the Sherlock Holmes museum and, after much dispute, was granted the right to change its number to 221b.
William Shakespeares Door
The famous playwright, William Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Henley Street, Stratford-upon-Avon behind the wooden door of a beautiful 16th Century house, which was typical of the time. The address is now a museum to Shakespeare managed by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust. The door is especially famous amongst visitors and tourists as it is fairly low in height and the majority have to bend down to enter the property.
Bag End Front Door
One of the most famous fictional doors is 'Bag End' which was home to JRR Tolkiens character Bilbo Baggins in his book The Hobbit. It is an un-numbered Smial or Hobbits Hole in the shire region in middle earth. It is the famous round green door with a large central bronze knob built into the side of a hill and where, in The Hobbit, Gandalf first knocks for Bilbo Baggins.
St Peters Basilicas holy door
Debatably, St Peters Basilica's holy door in the Vatican in Rome is the most striking door in the world. It is sealed from the inside and is only opened in Holy Years (Jubilee). Also called the Porto Sancta, the Holy year takes place every 25 years, the last one being in 2000. On the first day of a Holy Year the Pope strikes the brick wall with a silver hammer and opens it to the pilgrims. The message imparted by the Holy Door is that God's mercy reaches out to mankind's frailty.

How Strategic Communication Can Counter Disinformation
CPD Faculty Fellow Vivian Walker was recently interviewed by the Georgian Foundation for Strategic and International Studies (GFSIS) on the topic of "Strategic Communication: Influencing Public Perception." In the interview, Walker discusses the role of strategic communication in countering propaganda and disinformation and also highlights the tenets of an effective counter-narrative.
According to Walker, "The mistake we often make in developing effective counter-disinformation narratives is to come up with a justification for our behavior or a policy based on our own needs and interests as a government or an institution instead of understanding and accounting for the issues and ideas that target audiences actually care about."
The full interview is available here on the GFSIS website.

Strand 4 - Planning for Urban Resilience
Strand Leader: Miles Tight
Strand 4 is future looking in two respects. Firstly, it will consider different planning paradigms and how these might contribute to planning practices and procedures that will better support the development of more resilient and sustainable transport futures for 2050. A comparison of these paradigms will be made in the light of results from Strands 1, 2 and 3. Secondly, Strand 4 will examine methods by which participants in planning processes can develop visions for resilient and sustainable urban futures for 2050 which go significantly beyond a "business as usual" approach. Focus will be put upon how the results from Strand 3 can help in the development of these methods. Both of these elements of work will involve a mixture of review and workshops with academics and transport practitioners.
Description of work
Task 4.1 – Planning paradigms to support the development of resilient, sustainable urban futures for 2050
This task will build on outputs from Strands 1, 2, and 3, and, through a review of appropriate literature and a series of workshops with transport planners and decision makers (at both national and local levels), will seek to understand the limitations of existing planning practices and procedures in terms of creating resilient and sustainable long term futures. The review will cover basic theories of planning such as instrumental rationality, communicative rationality, incrementalism and agonistic planning, using analysis by, amongst others, Allmendinger (2002), Fainstein (2005) and Gunder (2003). The workshops will consider what kinds of planning procedures and practices would most effectively enable local and national decision-makers to consider step changes in the sustainability of urban transport systems and the kinds of supporting tools that would most effectively help them to bring about such changes. This work will link particularly to Strand 5 through informing the latter about alternative planning paradigms and about the demand for (and potential characteristics of) new transport planning support tools for each of these paradigms.
For this task we envisage four workshops, to be held in different parts of the country. One of these will be focussed on the Leeds/Manchester region and another in London (in order to attract participants with national level responsibility for transport planning). The locations of the further two workshops will be decided at a later date.
Task 4.2 – Visioning for sustainable and resilient urban areas in 2050
This task will examine the usefulness of visioning techniques for the planning paradigms identified in Task 4.1. This exercise will include the construction of a "base set" of visions of 2050 which combine resilience with sustainability, using the outputs from Strand 3 (which are in turn derived from the data from Strand 1 and Strand 2). Consideration will then be made as to how this base set of visions can be used by transport planners, decision-makers and members of the public in different types of planning processes. Specifically, the focus of the work will be on providing the means to adapt the base set of visions to develop "participant-generated" visions which incorporate step-changes from the current situation with respect to the transport system. The task will include a workshop with planners and academics to discuss the feasibility, workability and plausibility of the 2050 visions developed, and how these visions might be included in alternative planning processes. This work will also draw upon a review of relevant published sources of information on future visions developed in other studies. Key initial possibilities here include the Rees Jeffreys Futures project (Tight et al, 2000), the OECD Environmentally Sustainable Transport project (OECD, 2002), the EU funded POSSUM project (Banister et al, 2000), VIBAT (Hickman and Banister, 2007) and VIBAT London, the Vision 2030 project (www.transportvisions.org.uk), government Foresight reports (www.foresight.gov.uk) and the ongoing EPSRC funded project Visions of the role of walking and cycling in 2030 (Tight et al, 2009).
