When provided through salary sacrifice, all exempt benefits will become taxable with effect from 6 April 2017. As defined in the HMRC guidance "A salary sacrifice arrangement is an agreement between an employer and an employee to change the terms of the employment contract to reduce the employee's entitlement to cash pay. This sacrifice of cash entitlement is usually made in return for some form of non-cash benefit." In simple terms, if the employee is given a choice between cash and benefits, these provisions will be invoked.
However, the following benefits will remain exempt:
- Payments into a registered pension scheme
- Employer provided pensions advice
- Childcare vouchers
- Employer provided child care
- Bicycles and cyclist safety equipment
- Ultra low emission cars (less than 75g CO2/km)
Apart from the above, all benefits will now carry Class 1A NIC charge and PAYE liabilities. The point at which these benefits will become taxable is the earlier of:
- Renewal/change to arrangement (including auto-renewal)
- April 2018 (April 2021 for cars which are not ultra low emission, accommodation and school fees)
It is important to note here, if there is no salary sacrifice arrangement and the benefit is exempt, then there is no tax charge.
For example, provision of a mobile phone exclusively for business use is not a taxable benefit. If a mobile phone is provided by the employer and there is no salary sacrifice for such provision, then it will not be a taxable benefit.
If you would like advice on salary sacrifice, and what it means for your business, please contact us on 01256 406 601.

Lucy curated a one-day, practitioner-led workshop at the Dana Centre at the Science Museum, London, in June 2006, in collaboration with Hannah Redler, Curator of Art Projects at the Museum, with whom she co-chaired the event.
A group of international practitioners - media artists, architects and designers - came together over the course of a day to present, explore and discuss working models of effective multidisciplinary practice. Our aim in staging the event was driven by the desire as curators to achieve a more participatory agenda engaging all parties, including curators, one that fully exploits the potential of a new breed of responsive installations for alternative modes of play, experience and communication. This agenda will influence the ways project briefs are prepared and developed, reflect cultural, technological and social influences on museological thinking and further illuminate the ways in which technologically mediated presentations can best fulfil their public roles.

ST. LOUIS (KTVI) - For the first time in nearly twenty-five years the St. Louis Public School District is seeking an increase of $0.75 operating tax levy on the April ballot. The Special Administrative Board of St. Louis Public School District voted Tuesday to place Proposition 1 on the April 5th ballot.
If approved by the voters, the funds would be used for early childhood education, expand character and alternative education options, improve safety and security equipment and personnel, and offer competitive salaries to teachers and staff.
Currently, the levy is set at $3.75 per $100 of assessed valuation.
The district says the proposition would raise an estimated $27.8 million dollars each year for the district.

Design and designers hold an ambiguous place in contemporary environmental discourse. They can easily be blamed for causing environmental problems but may also be said to possess some of the competences that could help solve those problems. Design is a fundamental part of the world, where rapidly emerging concepts such as the Anthropocene challenge the distinction between the human-made (or artificial) on the one side and what is not made by human hands (or natural), on the other. Despite the long-standing centrality of design to environmental discourse, and vice versa, deep and systematic 'environmental histories of design' are few and far between. While environmental historians have increasingly explored technology, consumption, and material culture as active agents in discourses of environmental change, they seldom explicitly incorporate design or designers into their studies. At the same time, design history faces a major challenge in accounting for environmental concerns in the history of design discourse. This special issue explores the common ground emerging at the intersection of these two fields of inquiry, with the aim of establishing mutually beneficial understandings upon which to build a new interdisciplinary research agenda.
Hytta er et fristed, et familiested og en måte å være i naturen på – men den kan også være en stressfaktor, et strengt regulert sosialt felt og et økende miljøproblem.
Hva kan hyttelivet fortelle om samspillet mellom samfunn og teknologi? Hvordan påvirkes det moderne hyttelivet av muligheten til å drive et aktivt friluftsliv? Hva er drivkreftene bak hytteutviklingen, og hvilke konsekvenser skaper de nye fritidsboligene for naturen, for samfunnet rundt og for måten vi lever på?
Denne boken diskuterer disse spørsmålene. Engasjerte forskere fra mange fagfelt utforsker våre oppfatninger om den norske hytta, motsetningene som kan oppstå mellom dem, og hvordan vi kan forstå forholdet mellom hytter, miljø og samfunnsutvikling bedre.
This article investigates the making of the Norwegian recycling consumer-citizen by discussing recycling as both a cultural activity – an expression of environmentalist sentiment, an everyday habit and a social expectation – and a technological infrastructure consisting of disposal stations, legal frameworks, transportation systems and the recycling technologies themselves. Using a concept of 'recycling junctions' as a means of understanding historical recycling processes, the article focuses on beverage packaging to argue that effective recycling in the modern green state depends on a combination of technologically mediated convenience and green consumer-citizenship, involving a wide range of actors.
This paper explores how hunters have integrated digital mapping and GPS units in their hunting practices. The act of navigating a landscape, of being able to place yourself, your quarry, your fellow hunters, and your dogs in a mental representation of the world around you has long been a critical skill for hunters, one that requires use of all the senses. This way of interacting with nature has been a key element in narratives about hunting. In the last decade, however, digital and geolocative technologies have become far more common in hunting, enabling hunters to see their exact location, as well as their dogs, on a handheld GPS unit. Taking as its starting point how Scandinavian hunters have a long tradition of actively reflecting on their own practices, the paper will examine what kinds of discussions the hunters had surrounding the introduction of GPS tracking and other communication technologies, as well as how they have been implemented in the field.
The paper acknowledges that hunting practices deeply embedded in larger structures and traditions, such as the allotment of hunting rights, and of historical transitions from hunting as a sustenance strategy to a leisure activity. The paper will discuss what influence geolocative technologies have had on the relationship between local and non-local (urban or international) hunters and how they have changed the dynamics and landscape use of hunting. While it can be argued that Swedish hunters generally hunt in local areas that they know rather well, it could also be that they enable hunters to navigate new and to them unknown landscapes. Hunters may also interact with nature, each other, and their hunting equipment such as dogs in novel ways with GPS.
The talk will deepen the study of technology in hunting through analyzing the circulating relationship between one particular set of digital technologies and the knowledge and practice of hunting. In general, histories of hunting tend to pay much attention to weapons and their development from the dawn of time until present, but spends far less time on exploring the role of the other technologies. The general descriptions of technology to a large degree align with what historians of technology classify as internalistc studies of technology; chronological stories of changes in technical details with little regard for the interaction between technology, culture, and society at large.
Consider an empty bottle or can, one of the hundreds of billions of beverage containers that are discarded worldwide every year. Empty containers have been at the center of intense political controversies, technological innovation processes, and the modern environmental movement. Making a Green Machine examines the development of the Scandinavian beverage container deposit-refund system, which has the highest return rates in the world, from 1970 to present. Finn Arne Jørgensen investigates the challenges the system faced when exported internationally and explores the critical role of technological infrastructures and consumer convenience in modern recycling. His comparative framework charts the complex network of business and political actors involved in the development of the reverse vending machine (RVM) and bottle deposit legislation to better understand the different historical trajectories empty beverage containers have taken across markets, including the U.S. The RVM has served as more than a hole in the wall - it began simply as a tool for grocers who had to handle empty refillable glass bottles, but has become a green machine to redeem the empty beverage container, helping both business and consumers participate in environmental actions.
The leisure cabin is a deeply entrenched structure in Norwegian nature and culture. Close to half a million cabins dot the countryside in a nation of less than five million inhabitants. The cabin lifestyle is also rooted in history and tradition, in an idea of escaping from the stress of urban life to relax and "recharge one's batteries" in nature. While this sounds anti-modern, cabin owners have eagerly adopted modern comfort technologies in order to make cabin living more convenient.
This paper will explore the historical changes in the experience of night at the cabin, particularly focusing on the tensions between "artificial" electric light and "natural" darkness. Pitch-black nights, natural sounds, and starry night skies are important elements in the national mythology of authentic cabin living, yet these natural experiences has all but disappeared for a majority of cabin owners today. In many cabin developments, the light and noise pollution from electrical devices have more in common with suburbia than with the mythical isolated cabin in the remote wilderness.
The question of electrical light thus leads us to consider Norwegians' attitude toward nature and how it has changed since the early 1950s. This development reminds us how cabins and urban homes, and nature and culture are tightly connected.
Our ideas and experiences of nature have become entangled with digital media in interesting and sometimes unexpected ways over the last few decades. Using Google Street View's digital, screen-based mediation of Grand Canyon as a starting point, I will discuss where the tools, methods, and research agendas of the digital humanities and the environmental humanities meet. Both of these interdisciplinary fields are in rapid growth and are often invoked in discussions about the relevance and future of the humanities. What can we find of value where the two fields meet?
The technological mediation of near and distant landscapes have long fascinated scholars and the public alike, and it seems like this interest peaks around times of large-scale technological transition, when new modes of both transportation and mediation become available. Few scholars have analyzed this relationship between technology, media, and the perception of landscape as convincingly as Wolfgang Schivelbusch, who famously argued that the landscape perceived by travelers was filtered through the machine ensemble of the railroad system. This article brings Schivelbusch's thesis into the digital age as a way of examining the spatiality of digital media and the natural world. The article analyzes a series of technologically mediated digital representations of travel and movement through landscapes, in particular the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation's "slow travel" series of digitally enhanced TV programs. These highly popular mediations of railroad or boat travel challenge Schivelbusch's ideas of speed, distance, and experience of landscapes, but also direct our attention towards the role of digital media in making sense of a changing world.
Scandinavians like to think of themselves as being particularly close to nature. Identifying exactly what this nature is, however, is tricky. This paper historicizes the making of Norwegian nature by following the leisure cabin from 1850 until present. Cabins serve as gateways to nature for Norwegians, but have also permanently altered and influenced what we think of as natural. This paper examines how the infrastructures connecting people to cabins and to scenic landscapes have now become an integrated part of the Norwegian landscape. Large parts of Norway's nature cannot be experienced outside of this infrastructure; at the same time, it is precisely through using this infrastructure Norwegians have come to know and appreciate nature. In conclusion, the paper will argue that sustainable environmental management should consider the history of how we have come to use and experience nature, but not look back to an idea of pristine, untouched nature for solutions.
A roundtable presentation on the use of digital maps in environmental history scholarship.
A generation of hipsters has contracted cabin fever. The Cabin Porn website has become one of these internet hits, spreading through blogs, Facebook posts, tumblr reposts, Twitter mentions, and so on. Why can't all these people stop looking at cabins? What is the allure? Put simply, Cabin Porn is visual stimulation of the urge for a simpler life in beautiful surroundings. Commenters are likening it to "channeling your inner Thoreau." Cabin Porn represents the return of the homesteader, living off the grid, self-sufficient and self-reliant.
The rise of cabin porn—images of beautiful cabins in nature—as a visual genre reflects a growing international interest in cabins, shedworking, and rustic, exurban living off the grid, most of it romanticizing rural and low-tech lifestyles. On the surface, the digitally mediated and disembodied architecture of cabin porn seems to be a form of nostalgia, where the dream of the cabin becomes an arena for resolving an ambivalent relationship to technology and all the bothersome things of modern life. Delving deeper into the cabin porn phenomenon, however, can also reveal something about the mediated experience of nature through digital media.
New Natures broadens the dialogue between the disciplines of science and technology studies (STS) and environmental history in hopes of deepening and even transforming understandings of human-nature interactions. The volume presents historical studies that engage with key STS theories, offering models for how these theories can help crystallize central lessons from empirical histories, facilitate comparative analysis, and provide a language for complicated historical phenomena. Overall, the collection exemplifies the fruitfulness of cross-disciplinary thinking.
This article discusses recent developments in Nordic environmental history scholarship in light of the concept of the Anthropocene. Taking nature and culture as entangled with each other, the article explores questions of definitions, disciplinary knowledge and the need for interdisciplinarity, and the problem of national, spatial and temporal boundaries in environmental history. Both natural spaces and the scientific knowledge we have about nature need to be historicized. The article concludes with a look to the future of Nordic environmental history.

France has played an important role in the European open access movement, particularly in the launch of the Berlin declaration, a cooperation between the Max Planck Society and people from the CNRS. The research institutions (CNRS, INSERM in particular) played a major role in early 2000, especially with the launch of the HAL open archive in 2001.
France also set forth an important initiative regarding open access journals with the Revues.org platform founded in 1999 and specialized in Humanities and Social Sciences. It is operated by a joint service unit bringing together the CNRS, two universities (Aix-Marseille and Université d'Avignon et des Pays de Vaucluse) and a grande école (EHESS). Revues.org hosts in 2017 more than 465 journals, 192 of them being fully open access.Universities and grandes écoles joined the open access movement gradually and it is worth noting that some universities have been working on open access publishing (Nice with the database Revel) and Open Archives (in Toulouse for instance) since 2003. After the signature of a national agreement in 2006 aiming to foster OA, some universities and grandes écoles established an institutional open archive. In 2017, 95 of them do have an institutional repository. Couperin is also an actor of this movement through a working group focused on open access. The movement is progressively growing and the Jussieu call shows for example a real concern of the research community on OA issues.
On July 4 2018, Frédérique Vidal, Minister of Higher Education, Research and Innovation, launched the national open science plan.
The plan is centered around three key commitments:
The National Plan for Open Science are part of France's international commitment, and aims at making 100% of French scientific publications in open access.
In October 2016, the French Law for a Digital Republic Act (LOI n° 2016-1321 du 7 octobre 2016 pour une République numérique) came into force. One article is of specific concern for scholarly communication, as it relates directly to open access/open data. Article 30 creates a new right for researchers where authors have the right to archive an OA copy, even if they have granted the copyright to a publisher.Details can be found here. Some national OA agreements have been signed or are being discussed with French and major global publishers (see below).
A nation-wide effort, coordinated by the ABES, to mandate depositing of ETD has been made. This initiative is supported by a dissemination portal for French thesis: http://www.theses.fr/. Furthermore TEL, developed by HAL, gives access to PhD thesis via self-archiving: https://tel.archives-ouvertes.fr/. A decree makes the submission of the electronic thesis mandatory for all institutions from 1 September 2016.
HAL, Dissemin and Couperin have worked together to enable Dissemin to be compatible with HAL. Dissemin detects papers behind paywalls and invites authors to upload them in an open repository in one click.
Every two years Couperin together with national stakeholders organise a national event on open science to advance OA policies and display best practices. Two dedicated websites gather the programmes and presentations that have been made. E.g.:
The Jussieu Call for Open science and bibliodiversity was launched in october 2017 and has already been signed by many major institutions.
I-Revues: electronic OA journals of the INIST-CNRS
OpenEdition: The portal's mission is to promote open-access academic electronic publishing (465 journals, 4616 books).Episciences.org: its purpose is to promote the emergence of epi journals, namely open access electronic journals taking their contents from preprints deposited in open archives such as arXiv or HAL, that have not been published elsewhere.REVEL: electronic OA journals of the University of Nice
MathOA: some French researchers are part of the project.
OpenEdition books
A project of books liberation is under discussion between OpenEdition, Knowledge Unlatched and Couperin.
Dedicated OA website for researchers: easy to read information, FAQ on the digital Republic Law.
Doranum: dedicated website for researchers for research data: synthetic and clear information on research data.
DMP OPIDoR helps French researchers to write Data Management Plans.
Cat OPIDoR: wiki on the services dedicated to research data.

Health, safety and security
We're committed to maintaining an exceptional standard of health, safety and security in all the working environments we control. The effective management of health, safety and security is fundamental to the productivity, culture and reputation of our business.
This year, once again we maintained our OHSAS 18001 certification, the benchmark for health and safety management systems, across 100% of our sites.
Following the Grenfell fire, we worked closely with customers and partners to consider the potential ramifications of cladding in our portfolio. These consultations included our insurers, surveyors, local authorities and the London Fire Brigade. We assessed every asset in the portfolio during the year; remedial works to cladding and fire stopping are in progress.
Our ongoing work with the Health in Construction Leadership Group as well as our Customer Improvement Groups helps ensure we give health the same billing as safety, with mental health as important as physical health. A highlight of the year was the progress made on mental health, within the business and across the industry. This was underlined when Landsec won the best Health and Wellbeing Strategy Award at the International Institute of Risk & Safety Management (IIRSM) 2018 Awards. We will continue to push ahead in this area.
In partnership with Revo (formerly the British Council of Shopping Centres), this year we held a suicide awareness and prevention roundtable. Increasing awareness around suicide and enhancing mitigation strategies are now clear priorities for Landsec and other Revo members. Through working with the wider industry, we strive to help support the wider government suicide prevention strategy and are engaging with our local stakeholders to help prevent suicide incidents.
During the year we enhanced security training and advice for employees and partners. We also reviewed measures to address hostile use of vehicles and acted where required. We have introduced a group-wide response plan that enables us to respond to an increase in national threat in a proportionate and cost-effective way. Through our Security Customer Improvement Group, we've engaged with our security partners to establish a consistent approach to physical security across our portfolio.
Our physical and cyber security is supported by robust processes, policies and governance, together with mandatory training for employees in relevant roles. We continually prepare the business to anticipate and respond to incidents and we take part in several cross-industry forums. And we integrate security architecture into the way we design buildings. Our security teams are introducing new and innovative ways to reduce the opportunity for crime at our properties, protecting value for our customers.
Accessibility for all
Around one in five people in the UK has a disability or impairment and more than half of households have a connection to someone with a disability. Their collective spending power – the purple pound – is almost £250bn, but they often find shopping environments difficult to access, navigate and enjoy.
We aim to give every customer a great experience, so this year we joined the Purple initiative to make our destinations a positive environment for those with a disability. Our goal is to ensure our centres are a champion in their catchment (known as Disability Confident Level 3) by the end of 2019.
Bluewater led the way when it became the first UK centre to achieve Level 3, in October 2018. We then celebrated the launch of the first Purple Tuesday accessible shopping day by turning Piccadilly Lights purple.

In a study of dual enrollment students in Florida and New York conducted by the Community College Research Center at Columbia University, the following short-term outcomes were observed:
- Dual enrollment was positively related to students' likelihood of earning a high school diploma
- Dual enrollment was positively related to college enrollment
- Dual enrollment students were statistically significantly more likely to persist in college to a second semester
- Dual enrollment students had statistically significantly higher postsecondary GPAs one year after high school graduation.
Please also take a look at the Dual Enrollment Fact Sheet(TBR Meeting6 24 11), which contains a good solution to tighten the integration between community colleges and the K-12 system. Please let me know if you have any presenters to discuss the value-added benefits of dual enrollment.

Macxchange Script to Change MAC and Hostname in Backtrack.
May 5, 2011
When conducting a pentest, the first thing the pentester should do is to change its computer mac address and hostname because they are recorded in the logs and dhcp server. Macxchange is a very simple script. It is meant to work with backtrack or any other linux distro. It selects a random word from john the ripper wordlist for hostname, and for the mac address uses macchanger. Once your mac and hostname have been changed remember to restart networking or get an ip "dhclient <interface> ". So if you're using other distro than backtrack, make sure to have macchanger installed, and edit the proper varialbe for wordlist. You can also download script from here
#!/bin/bash #author: Jorge L. Vazquez #purpose: this script will change the mac address to random #and will pick a random word from password.lst in jtr for hostname #change variables "interface" and "file" to your settings #also macchanger needs to be installed INTERFACE=eth0 FILE=/pentest/passwords/jtr/password.lst WORD=$(sort -R $FILE | head -1) #changing mac address to random ifconfig $INTERFACE down > /dev/null if [ $? == 0 ]; then printf "%s\nChanging mac address...\n" macchanger -r $INTERFACE else printf "%sScript encounter an error, sorry...\n" exit 1 fi #changing hostname to random word from password.lst printf "%s\nChanging Hostname...\n" OLDHOST=$(hostname) hostname $WORD if [ $? == 0 ]; then printf "%sPrevius Hostname: $OLDHOST \n" printf "%sRandom Hostname: $WORD \n" else printf "%sScript encounter an error, sorry...\n" exit 1 fi #putting interface up ifconfig $INTERFACE up > /dev/null printf "\n" #END

text: Activism Here's one way to support Black Lives Matter as traveler: stay at one of these black-owned hotels. Amanda Machado Aug 26, 2016 THE NATION RECENTLY reported that the the average black household will need 228 years to finally gain as much as wealth as white families have today. For Latino families, it will take 84 years. The numbers came as the result of a study of the racial wealth-gap released by the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS) and the Corporation For Economic Development (CFED). To help close that gap, supporting black businesses is a great place to start. And as travelers, the easiest way to do that is by choosing black hotels and bed-and-breakfasts as accommodation when you're on the road. This website lists hundreds of black-owned hotels across the country. Check out the list to figure out how you can support the black community on your next trip. What did you think of this article?

Eemshaven, 10 January 2018
On 10th January, EMS Maritime Offshore BV (EMO) celebrated the topping-out ceremony of their second building in Eemshaven. The ground-breaking ceremony for the new Offshore Service Base at Beatrixhaven had been held in November 2017.
After the traditional topping-out speech held by Mr Enne Zweepe from the Kooi construction company based in Appingedam, EMO Managing Director Knut Gerdes held a speech. Gerdes emphasised in his address that the time schedule for the construction had been very ambitious and called for dovetailed planning and implementation. The decision to rely on familiar, regional partners paid off. Particularly due to the reliable work conducted by the Kooi construction company, no delays are to be expected in spite of the winter weather. The construction project is right on schedule.
The almost 500m² office complex with an adjacent warehouse area comprising 600m² is to be rented from May this year by the Merkur Offshore GmbH project enterprise, operators of the "Merkur" offshore wind farm of the same name, which is currently being erected in the German North Sea. The infrastructure is utilised by the wind energy facility manufacturers GE Renewable Germany GmbH, which is installing 66 of its systems of the "Haliade 150" type with a capacity of 6 MW each in the wind farm.
This building is the second Service Base Facility for the EMO in Eemshaven. The site at Beatrixhaven, not far from the AG "Ems" Borkumlijn, still offers some construction areas and free spaces. Up until now, the EMO has invested approx. EUR 3 mio. into the location.

"What Is Love? Baby Don't Hurt Me"
By Jeff from SLN More Blogs by This Author
Begging the Question
It's an interesting question Haddaway asks in his electrifying dance single, but he isn't the only one asking. Let's think about Hollywood: Aren't most romantic comedies all about sorting out some sort of love conundrum? It certainly seems like the characters that aren't successful in those movies are the ones that don't understand even the notion of love. But aren't we all running around wondering the same thing? Really, what is love?
The dictionary is usually a good place to define what a word means so I did a search at good ol' Merriam-Webster:
1): Strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties
2): Attraction based on sexual desire: Affection and tenderness felt by lovers
3): Affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests
When I read the first definition, I got the distinct impression that a dictionary may not be able to give a satisfying answer. Sure, love is associated with a strong affection, and certainly people feel kinship when they love someone – or maybe that's just sexual desire – but all these things seem more like possible results of love rather than a concrete understanding of what love actually is. We can all experience kinship, attraction, and affection without having experienced love, right? However, the third part of the above definition may be on to something; the affection is out of admiration or benevolence, but maybe it feels empty to me because I'm still not satisfied with a cause for the admiration.
Then, the fourth definition caught my eye:
4): Unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another: as 1): the fatherly concern of God for humankind 2): brotherly concern for others
Hmm... This seems a bit more promising. Unselfishness? Benevolent concern? These both definitely sound like qualities of love. But then God comes into the picture, which kind of makes sense when you read something like this from John 4:8: "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.(NIV)"
God as Love, Love as God
God is love. Well, at least this definition is easy to remember, but how can God be love? If you follow the Gospel of John, [SPOILER ALERT] Jesus, the Son of God, heals the sick, teaches people about the nature of God, and allows himself to be killed so that God's creation – humankind – can know him personally and live with him in Heaven after they die. Again, though, that's what God is willing to do because he loves. So, what exactly is the love part?
It seems that the love part is God's overwhelming desire to overcome all obstacles for all people to know him. You may not trust that John's Gospel is accurate about who God is, but I do think the Gospel's description of God provides an ideal picture of love. A being that is so concerned with the well-being of people that he's willing to lose his son in the process of helping them, even those who reject and kill his son. Essentially, love is given to everyone, despite the fact that most of them probably don't deserve it.
Oh, the Irony!
So, I guess when Haddaway asks what love is he really doesn't know if he's so worried about getting hurt. That classic bumper sticker sounds closer a little closer to the truth; I suppose it's hard to beat love if it ignores any faults that could get in the way. I mean, I'm not sure what the contest is, but it sure seems like a contender.
It's a beautifully ironic idea for a person to say "I love you." The phrase makes a person vulnerable, revealing their inner feelings and giving the receiver the power to reject those feelings. But if love is a depth-defying kind of reaching out, similar to what is happening in the Gospel of John, the response hardly seems to change the speaker's position.
This leaves something to be said for the motivation behind our treatment of one another. When someone tries to please another for their own validation, it's too variable. Immediately, a goal becomes clear: If only I can make the other person laugh/listen/compliment me, I'll have what I want, what I need. It seems that love forgets the whole "I" part of things. Honestly, it sounds a little reckless.
Maybe love is unreasonable. Maybe it's for the best.

Overview of Calcium Carbonate info
Calcium carbonate has the chemical formula CaCO 3, has a white base color and can usually be found easily in calcite, limestone, limestone and also marble. Calcium carbonate is also commonly found in stalagmites and stalactites that are usually located in high mountain areas. For calcium carbonate residing in stalagmites and stalactites, the origin of droplets of precipitated groundwater for a very long period of time, ie thousands to millions of years.
The function of calcium carbonate in everyday life
Along with the development of the era, calcium carbonate has been widely used by industry players, one of which is to make toothpaste and drugs for stomach acid. Calcium carbonate does have benefits in helping tooth and bone growth so as not fast porous, this is because of the function of calcium carbonate as one of the main substances in the formation of bones and teeth.
Someone is also advised to consume a calcium carbonate-containing supplement if they do not get enough calcium intake in their daily diet. Unfortunately, we often do not realize that we lack calcium carbonate and just realized it when it was too late. Calcium is needed by the body to build and keep the bones healthy and strong, calcium also plays a lot for the muscles, nervous system and the liver can still run perfectly without any problems. Calcium carbonate can also be used to cure heartburn or heartburn in the stomach and other stomach ailments.
Do not ignore the function of calcium carbonate before it's too late. Once a person reaches the age of 35, the bones begin to lose their density, usually more quickly in mothers who are pregnant or newborn because some of their nutritional intakes will be given to the fetus they contain. It can also take place more quickly if you do not have enough calcium from your childhood or adolescence. Often, a person with osteoporosis (bone loss) is caused by persistent calcium deficiency, which eventually leads to porous (thin bones that can crack easily). Other factors that support the occurrence of osteoporosis smoking habits, unbalanced body hormones, unbalanced thyroid levels, lack of exercise, prolonged stress and so on.

We woke to another day of white everywhere. The only difference today from yesterday is the white is no longer sparkling and unblemished. It has many flaws and mud is starting to rapidly appear. The #2 son called this am and ask if we would like to meet him and his family for lunch. That was an easy one to answer. YES, YES, why didn't you call before now? This meant there would actually be people to talk to (they might even answer me), there would be little chance of anyone getting shot, and the noise level would be half of what I have had to endure the last few days
My hubby and I both retired from our long-held jobs in 2002. We knew we were very lucky to retire at this time in our lives. We anxiously anticipated not dealing with the everyday stress, and doing more of the things we had always dreamed of doing. Little did I know that this meant that my husband would be watching a considerable amount of television. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy TV, just not to the degree or volume that he does. Did I mention he is hard of hearing? I did not know this before we retired. Nor did I know that constant noise can send me running from the house to the barn clutching my head and asking God to not let me do harm to this kind man.
I have survived gun battles, wars, extreme fighting, the "f" word screamed repeatedly, dinosaur battles, and cars racing over and over! No ipod can drowned out these. There have been many educational lessons too. Did you know, that Yellowstone National Park is on the verge of a major volcanic eruption, a meteorite could destroy us at any moment, as could a major earthquake or tsunami? Please don't even get me started on global warming. I'm pretty sure I have heard almost every insect, mammal, reptile, bird, and anything else that moves on earth, reproduce.
The noise situation improved briefly when we visited an audiologist and purchased $5000.00 hearing aids. They work great, when he wears them. But when it is just the two of us in the house, it just doesn't occur to him to wear them.
With the snow and cold I have not been able to run to the barn or anywhere. Today's lunch invitation was a blessing. The meal was nothing to brag about but the company was great. Grandchildren are always a great diversion. Their innocence and enthusiasm are so refreshing. The snow and wet were still here when we arrived home but the trapped feeling gone. It appears there will be an end to the constant TV as things dry up and the hubby can resume his work outside. Thank you, Son!

This morning, as I'm reading through old notes, I came across a note from one of our ladies the day after our announcement about our pastor's fall. It is interesting to read it two years later, and I thought the raw emotion of her "day after" thoughts would help you know how serious a pastor's fall really is. It's a life changing event, and to express that here are Stephanie's words:
What can I say?
After receiving shocking news yesterday, I spent the morning reading all the blogs that I could find that were written by people from my church. I found myself with an intense desire to connect with other people and find out what their thoughts and feelings are. The result? I find myself feeling incredibly blessed to be a member of such an amazing church family. The grace and love illustrated in those blogs that I found and read was overwhelming.
I don't know what I could possibly say that would encourage others the way that I have been encouraged by others; yet, I feel myself driven to start one of these crazy blog things of my own. Maybe all this will do is help me to get to know these people and help them to get to know me. If that is all I get from writing, that would be worth it.
What happened yesterday was shocking and heartbreaking. I find myself unable to stop dwelling on it. I get distracted by something the kids say or do, only to get stuck right back with thoughts of yesterday's news. Maybe writing about it will help me close that door, if just for a little while. But, I just don't know what to say.
I feel such a great hurt for the family, for EVERYBODY in the family. I feel such a longing to DO something. What? I have no idea. What could I possibly do that would be worth anything to them? Nothing. They don't even know me. All I can do is pray for them. And that is what I will do. I will pray for their healing. I will pray for the healing of our amazing church family. I will pray that people will have forgiving spirits and that they will choose to support the healing of everyone involved. I will pray for the good that the Lord will bring out of this.
I feel a great sense of loss. I was supposed to experience the legendary teaching of a wise woman in a class about mothering this fall. I feel robbed of her ministry. I am comforted in the knowledge that there are still other women with wisdom to share with us. Yet, my emotions are still screaming "It's not fair!" It's not fair to lose the opportunity to learn from such a great teacher either. I am feeling very selfish in that. How…..human of me, I suppose.
I am a bit scared as well. I don't particularly like change. A big change like this is scary. What will happen next? How will the people of our church react? People have told me to expect a drop of at least 50%. That is scary because my job depends on people coming to church as well as the giving of those people. But, besides my job security, I love those people, and their kids, who I care for and I don't want to lose their presence in my life. Once again, I am being selfish.
There is a man out there. I wonder what he is feeling? I wonder what he is thinking? I wish I could embrace him and tell him that it will be okay. Somehow it will be okay. I wish I could tell him that he has my support, not my judgement. That he has my love, not my anger. That he has my understanding, not my criticism.
There is a woman out there. I wonder how she is feeling right now. How will she begin the healing? I wish I could embrace her and tell her that I understand. That she has my support and love. I am in awe of her strength….to sit through all four services yesterday. Truely amazing. I wish to thank her for her show of support at a time when she was in such great need of support for herself.
What can I say? What can I do? I don't know. I don't know.
We are all human. We are all fallen. We are all sinners.
How wonderful is it that there is a God who is always forgiving and will always love us?
It is beyond comprehension.

the awfully bright pink hair, she's not a bad ninja girl design. (Although, I
suppose if she didn't have colorful hair, she might look a bit too much like Taki?)
Hmph. The huge shuriken she
carries is also a bit of a rip-off of Yuffie's weapon...
(and Yuffie did come first, no excuses!) but her outfit design is pretty
cool I think. In gameplay, she's got some cool moves also. However, one of her
special moves looks exactly like Taki's (the one where she pounds the ground)...
kinda ironic.

WESTFIELD, Ind. – The City of Westfield, in partnership with the Westfield Washington School System and the Hamilton County Community Foundation, announced the launch of a community-wide initiative, the Well-being Coalition of Westfield.
The group is focused working on improving well-being across the spectrum of health—mental, physical, social, emotional and spiritual—by bettering community-wide processes, resources and training opportunities.
A recent survey found that 17 percent of sixth graders at Westfield Intermediate School reported feeling sad or hopeless for two or more weeks in a row. An additional, 7 percent reported considering suicide.
"It concerns me and we hear about the stress these kids face. We hear about the sense of despair," said Mayor Andy Cook.
Fishers launched a campaign to break down the stigma associated with mental health a few years ago. Westfield wants to expand that program in their community.
"I expect Westfield to lead the state in this initiative of our mental and emotional health," Cook said.
Suzanne Clifford, CEO of Inspiring Transformations, is part of the coalition. She's helped others in dozens of states improve their outcomes. Clifford has researched how stress impacts a person's overall health. She said suicide is at a 30-year high across the country.
"With technology and 24/7 of bombardment of the brain, we have to raise kid differently so we make sure kids, families and youth have the resources they need," Clifford said.
The Well-being Coalition convened a cross-community group to drive action with input from public safety agencies, as well as school, religious, non-profit, business, health care and sports organizations. The group will launch its webpage and release its strategic action plan to the community in May during National Mental Health Month. Anyone wanting to get involved can email email@example.com.

Runs on Request/Online Visualization changelog
View the log of changes/updates to the 3DView online visualization, as well as announcements regarding occasional correction/re-execution of past ROR requests. The most recent changes were:
Nov. 4, 2016Total Electron Content (TEC) from runs of the SAMI3 model is now available in the Run-on-Request visualizaion system. The two-dimensional map is best rendered at a low altitude above about 170 km (the highest points of the bottom flux tubes in the model grid).
The resolution of the plot grid used in all visualizations of Runs-on-Request results has been improved. The number of positions used is now proportional to the selected image magnification. As a result, plot grid resoluton is two times finer than before for a default-sized image and up to four times finer for twice-enlarged images.
Note: ASCII outputs are returned at a different (coarser resolution).
Oct. 27, 2016The Run-on-Request submission systems for global magnetosphere and inner magnetosphere now support solar wind inputs from the DSCOVR satellite (as applicable). Daily DSCOVR real time data have been accumulated from NOAA SWPC's solar wind data stream since 2016/07/27 when the satellite was started to be used in operations at SWPC. We added a warning that ACE realtime data after 2016/07/27 have daily gaps.
Oct. 26, 2016Runs-on-Requests of the magnetosphere now use a minimum temperature of 10000 K in solar wind inputs. Before, zero (missing) temperature data were replaced with a value too low to allow the models to run successfully. Although the solar wind temperature is not very important as a solar wind driver of geomagnetic activity, it does affect model stability in global magnetosphere simulations.
Sept. 19, 2016Runs-on-Requests for the CMIT model submitted in the future will use 2.5 by 2.5 degree resolution TIEGCM ionosphere (if requested). Before, all runs used a 5 by 5 degree TIEGCM grid.
The MIX ionosphere electrodynamics grid will be set to 1 by 1 degree resolution for runs using the quad-resolution LFM grid (106x96x128 cells). All coarser LFM grids run with 2 by 2 degree MIX resolution (as did all runs before).
Sept. 7, 2016Runs-on-Requests: The option to track satellites in Global Magnetosphere (GM) requests became unavailable on or after Sept. 2, 2016 due to a loss of a file listing satellite orbit parameters.
The file has been restored and request runs of selected GM models can again include satellite traces. Satellite positions can be visualized with the magnetosphere MHD and ionosphere electrodynamics simulation outputs.

It also seemed to add a layer of security to our stay in the knowledge that there was always someone professional and friendly just an elevator's ride away.
Without a doubt we'd stay again at in this apartment at 270 Degrees Liberty Apartments in Glenelg. In fact, we've had such a positive experience with our accommodation and discovery of Adelaide, that we're already planning a second trip.

......The Top 10 Best Home Based
Business Ideas Revealed!
Jump In Now and Cash In BIG TIME!
Indeed, home based business opportunities abound on the internet. But, finding the 1 best home based
business idea that will cut it for your online business is not an easy task. Therefore, this article examines
10 best home based business ideas that you can choose from for your home based business.
The top 10 best home based business ideas that you can use for your online business are as follows:
Top on the list of the top 10 best home based businesses is GSM phones and their uses.
You will be surprised at how ignorant many people are with respect to the use of their mobile phones.
More and more people are working from home. So, would you like to work from home too and earn as much as $75-$250 per sale? If so, click HERE.
Are you a die-hard football fan? If you are, congratulations! You've just found the best home
based business idea for your proposed home based business. Do you know why? It is because you are not alone.
People all over the world do not just love soccer, otherwise referred to as football. They are mad about the game. They follow English League, Spanish La Liga, EUFA Champions League and so on with so much passion that you would think that their lives depended on it.
Do you think you can set up a home based business with football as its central theme?
Photography and artwork is another one of the top 10 best home based business ideas. People
everywhere across the globe love artwork and photography. If only you know how much some people are willing to
pay for a piece of artwork or photograph, you would waste no time to dive feet first into this home business idea without
looking back!
Similarly, people upload a vast amount of photographs daily on social network media like Facebook, you will indeed be amazed. This is exactly why the camera phones are very popular with a lot of people, especially young ones. Hence, if you know a lot of information about photography or you already engage in it part-time, this could be a great idea for your home based business.
No. 4 of the top 10 best home based business ideas is travel / tour guide. People travel to
foreign lands daily. They would appreciate any information that they can get on the country that they have
emigrated to.
However, the operating word here is love or passion in order for you to be able to create a great online business on travel / tour guide. Hence, you must love or have a passion for the subject in order to be able to succeed with your home based business.
Religion remains the no. 1 money-spinning machine in the world, second only to prostitution.
Do you not find that odd? Odd or not, there is absolutely no doubt about it that pastors are doing very well
for themselves in the developing world.
Perhaps a reason largely responsible for this is the widespread squalor and poverty prevalent everywhere, especially in Africa where many households live on less than a dollar a day.
However, if you do not have the calling, you will be inviting the wrath of God on yourself for using the name of the lord to amass wealth for yourself as the best home based business idea that you can think of. On the other hand, if you are a genuine man of God, you could use this as the idea for your online business.
After all, money does not have to be the sole or major reason for setting up a home based business. Love for mankind is in itself a greater objective to inform the setting up of an information site, especially one that is religious in nature.
Looking for the perfect domain name for your best home based business idea? We believe
we can help in this regard. Our
Domain Name Suggestion Tool will help you find and register very good, albeit, perfect domain name(s)
for the new website(s) that you are contemplating.

Another great idea for a home based business is sound health and healthy living. Many people are
interested in making more money for themselves from their secular jobs. But they are also interested in getting sound
health and enjoying their wealth without any adverse medical condition.
Without having a sound health, they cannot enjoy their wealth. So it follows that people will appreciate any information that they can find on improving their health and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Prevention, it is commonly said, is better than cure. So, the subject of sound health could form a great idea for your home based business.
Therefore, you could create an information site which focuses on alternative medicine to keep the body in top shape in order to prevent diseases from making inroads into the body. Additionally, presenting information on the connection between a healthy lifestyle and wealth, as well as how to maintain a healthy lifestyle, is a great idea and can become a huge success within a short time.
Idea No. 7 of the top 10 best home based business ideas is laptop computers and their uses.
More and more people, especially in Nigeria and other African countries, are desiring to become ICT compliant every single day of the week. In order to achieve this objective, they are acquiring laptops either through direct cash purchase or through payments by instalments.
Hence, an information site that provides information on the sources of getting brand new or fairly used laptops at rock bottom prices will attract a large audience across Africa and other developing countries.
On the other hand, you may decide to give your online business a different twist by focusing on the uses and maintenance of laptops. The suggested domain name for your site or home based business could be: yourlaptoprepairguide.com or cheaplaptopsources.com.
For a more comprehensive research and helpful suggestions, you could use our domain name suggestion tool.
Another great idea for a home based business is developing basic writing skills. Most people admire
the writing skills of others. This is why great novels of writers like James Hadley Chase and Harry Porter, can be bestsellers
and still remain evergreen with people for many generations to come.
Therefore, developing a site that provides information on how to cultivate basic writing skills will quickly become popular and successful on the internet.
Idea No. 9 of the top 10 best home based business ideas is the publishing of e-books and videos.
As more and more people open home based businesses, the need to publish e-books and videos on their websites to improve the quality of their sites and also serve as a means of generating money from their sites eventually arises.
Therefore, if you know a lot of information about e-book and video publishing, you could set up a home based business to take care of this need.
Perhaps the greatest idea of the top 10 best home based business ideas is a freebies website.
To tell you the truth, freebies is an excellent idea for a home based business.
What is freebies? In local parlance, it is known as "oshofrey". In other words, freebies is a term that has developed on the internet to mean any free item which is used as an incentive to get a desired action from visitors to a website. People generally love freebies.
They are attracted to it like ants are attracted to sugar. They love free mp3 music, free videos, free mobile games download, free e-books and other free stuffs that are made freely available on the internet. People also love free text messages, free calls and even free browsing credits. If air was not already free, they would have found a way of getting it for free too!
Hence, if there is a chance that people can get something which they greatly desire completely free and avoid spending their money to get it, they will do all they can to get it free.
Better still, a freebies home based business is not only a great way to attract visitors to your business, but it is also a way of developing trust and confidence in a freebies site by its visitors. Hence, people are more willing and open to buy from a site from where they have been getting things for free over a period of time.
This makes it a great idea for a home based business with a potential for generating huge amount in investment returns.

Brambles and grapevines are a great mix to keep an old man agile and active. The necessary dodging, ducking and crouching does more good than any workout at the gym. Each call I take is tougher than the last, but my legs get stronger to meet the challenge.
The call I took on Tuesday, November 11, taught me a few things. It was a big bow-shot buck, hit "too far back" at 8 AM. The hunter and his buddies had tracked it about a half mile. Then the blood sign ran out, and I was called in at 2:30 PM. There was plenty of scent, and it was no problem for Tommy to start and follow. After only a hundred yards we jumped the buck, and he made a tight circle in a thick swamp with a deep creek flowing through it. When you get wet, you stay cool.
And I was happy to see that the buck was staying close in thick stuff. He won't go far, I thought. Ha! After that tight loop, he lined out through the briars for over a mile. The creek meandered back and forth so that we could cool off several times. The steep clay slopes had me on my hands and knees coming out. I envied Tommy's four legs and claws.
We crossed a harvested corn field. ...no blood, but I could see the big splayed hoof prints on into a stretch of open hardwoods. Much easier going. Then we found a bed with a few smears of blood. But the buck was gone, and we tracked after him as fast as we could go, which wasn't very fast.
Now it was getting dark. The hunter and I agreed that we wouldn't catch up any time soon, and we had no lights with us. I marked the scent line as it came out of another creek, and we slopped our way out to a road where we were picked up.
Our plan was to pick up the line the next morning and track to the buck that should be dead or very weak. That was the plan, but what are plans in the passion of the hunt?
The next morning, as I was getting ready to leave for the track, the hunter called. He hadn't been able to sleep, and he had worried about the coyotes. At 1:30 AM he had gone back to my marker and searched ahead for a 100 yards. There was the 10 point buck, dead.
Because I tracked it 1 1/2 miles without blood, I'm claiming it as a find for Tommy. But Tommy never got a chew.
|This was John's 4th recovery this year and 302nd lifetime.
The other two pictures show deer recovered by John and Tommy in October.


text: Clientele customer service staff at the company's Johannesburg head office have embarked on a strike over what they say are "unfair working conditions" and racism in the workplace.The employees say the strike, which began on Tuesday, has been declared illegal by the insurance service group.While the shop steward says more than 1000 Clientele staff have downed tools, Clientele disputes this and says the number is about 150."We have decided to embark on a strike to voice our grievances over unfair treatment of employees at Clientele, which include unfair deductions of commissions and favouritism in the company," said shop steward Omphemetse Pheko.According to Pheko, workers have also leveled accusations of "racism and rampant favouritism" against the company's management, saying black people were often overlooked for promotion.Approached for comment, Clientele described the protest action as only affecting "a small percentage" of its employees, stating it was committed to constructive dialogue.The company did not immediately respond to questions over the racism claims, with a spokesperson saying management was locked in a meeting."We remain committed to pursuing alternative and more conducive means to reach a mutually beneficial resolution including referring the dispute to the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration for intervention," said Basil Reekie, Group Managing Director in a statement."It has always been Clientele's stance to resolve any concerns through constructive engagement between management and staff directly."But the striking employees who have been picketing outside the offices in Rivonia, north of Johannesburg dispute this, saying management refused to meet with them."Management has so far not made any effort to meet with us, we have given them seven days to respond to our memorandum of grievances," said Pheko.* This article has been updated to indicate that Clientele disputes the number of workers who have downed tools.* Sign up to Fin24's top news in your inbox: SUBSCRIBE TO FIN24 NEWSLETTER
