Help Heal the Pain
Looking into the dark, brown pools of her eyes, you are met with N's steady mature gaze. Her skin condition and health all bear witness that she has seen and experienced too much, too soon.
N's mother would offer her daughter's body to grown men every day from a tiny, roofless mud shack. This thin little girl would lay on a threadbare mat on the floor and wait for customers. N was rewarded with sherbet sticks if and only if she satisfied the needs of enough customers.
When she was picked up by Jehovah Jireh Mustard Seed (JJMS) outreach team, she was just a mass of sores, sties, and encrusted blood but worst of all, her thinking was warped and twisted. If she wanted a packet of chips, she simply walked to the local village store and undressed, hoping to make enough money to buy food. She taught herself to blank out the horrors and pain.
Very slowly and with incredible difficulty and sensitivity, we are learning to help N. It will be a long journey, but we are hoping to heal those dark recesses of her childlike mind. It is very simply God's will that N is catching up on playing dolls, giggling with her friends at night, and making misshapen cakes in the oven.
There are hundreds of children just like N. They all need a place to stay and a uniform so they can go to school. Those kids deserve the same love, care, and support that N needs to heal.
The Mustard Seed was an informal nonprofit organization led by Julia O'Connell in QwaQwa, South Africa, but once I met the kids in 2014, I couldn't leave them without helping them in some way. Very soon after, I established the Jehovah Jireh Mustard Seed program under the Jehovah Jireh nonprofit umbrella. With Julia's dedication, the children have now moved into a larger, safer house with formalized programs.
Within six months, JJMS had 5 full time volunteers and was running three programs:
- A housing, health, and basic needs program that houses 10 children
- A daily meal program that serves 50 children once a day
- An afterschool program for 60 children
We've had tremendous success in transforming the lives of the little angels that live in the JJMS home. All 10 children attend school and receive shelter, food, and medication because our doors are also open to kids who are sick. The children of QwaQwa see JJMS as a place of refuge and so they continue to show up at Julia's door. It would break my heart if we had to turn these children away.
We need to do more for these kids. JJMS is committed to increasing our impact and expanding our presence as needed. On October 1st, we moved into a larger facility that now allows us to provide shelter for 50 children, increased our meal program to twice a day for 200 children, and expanded the educational services we provide.
This is why we need your help.
Any donation will help continue to support the kids at the Jehovah Jireh Mustard Seed orphanage in QwaQwa. Check out the orphanage and see the kids you'll be helping.
Thank you for helping me transform the lives of kids like N!
Finding Hope
T, the loner, strange boy and a case book study of what a truly destroyed little human being looks and behaves like.To T, the world was not a safe place and he had lost control of his life. It was relationships with past family members that had badly scarred him.But it is also within future relationship that restoration can once again occur.
T's mother decided one day, in her time of severe illness and depression, that it was now time, T looked after himself. Her parenting days were now over. So she just stopped nourishing and caring for him. T was a ragged 8 year old when he entered the gates of Jehovah Jireh Mustard Seed. He had lost his physical health due to living in severe and unsanitary conditions with inadequate food. He was a victim of sexual exploitation, abuse and neglect.
T walked into a haven that provided regular meals, a mothers love and lots of laughter. And it caused him to freeze. A glacial unemotional cold expression filled this small body. T was unable to get emotionally close to anyone. I would hug and hold him daily causing him extreme agitation. T became so angry towards me. He would kick and scream. But this was at least a reaction. It provided me with an opening.
After lots of prayer, talking and controlled holding, T, one day told me "Mom I am in my own body but there is another boy living there now." No matter what had happened to young T, our great God still reigns. Personal hardships and afflictions cannot ever mute the resurrection of a wounded spirit. Ts pain and suffering would not define or control him. Evil had been overcome with good.
Today T is still a loner, different to a lot of boys his age, but as he told me, he has a lot of thinking to catch up on. And who can argue with logic like that. He has to make sense of the strange puzzle that constituted his life. But I am assured nobody or nothing can ever steal his Joy.
At Jehovah Jireh Mustard Seed our hope is through Gods love and rehabilitating interventions that children such as T will be restored and raised up again to full health, emotionally, spiritually, mentally and physically. The first step of continued healing in young Ts life has begun. Some days it is one step forward two steps back, but this is normal. The little child, T is slowly peeping through. As I watch him go through milestones he missed due to neglect and abuse, I am so grateful God led him to us.
He loves Kool Aid and peri peri chips. He hates loud noises, can't watch any violence, and detests crowds. He can recite the alcohol level of most drinks but has learned his 66 books of the Bible off by heart. He has a large head and is an obvious Foetal Alcohol Syndrome sufferer. Like Simon he sucks his finger continuously. He worries about our food consumption and is neurotic when we reach our last bag of beans. He watches what I spend and saves up money to purchase next years uniform. If I get influenza he panics. I went to Johannesburg to look for Arvs and I came back to a total wreck even though I spoke to him three times a day. Change destroys him and he constantly works to control his environment.
But a little boy that kneels besides his bed every evening after supper to enjoy intense interaction with his Savior, whilst the other Angels laugh over a game of Monopoly. He is going to be okay. He has made a Friend that sticks closer than a brother. What else does he need?
What you do unto the very least of these you do unto Him.
Any donation will help continue to support the kids at the Jehovah Jireh Mustard Seed orphanage in QwaQwa. Check out the orphanage and see the kids you'll be helping.

Rollo (860-932)
Charles the Simple (879-829)
The king had at first wished to give to Rollo the province of Flanders, but the Norman rejected it as being too marshy. Rollo refused to kiss the foot of Charles when he received from him the duchy of Normandy. "He who receives such a gift," said the bishops to him, "ought to kiss the foot of the king." "Never," replied he, "will I bend the knee to anyone, or kiss anybody's foot." Nevertheless, impelled by the entreaties of the Franks, he ordered one of his warriors to perform the act in his stead. This man seized the foot of the king and lifted it to his lips, kissing it without bending and so causing the king to tumble over backwards. At that there was a loud burst of laughter and a great commotion in the crowd of onlookers. King Charles, Robert, Duke of the Franks, the counts and magnates, and the bishops and abbots, bound themselves by the oath of the Catholic faith to Rollo, swearing by their lives and their bodies and by the honor of all the kingdom, that he might hold the land and transmit it to his heirs from generation to generation throughout all time to come. When these things had been satisfactorily performed, the king returned in good spirits into his dominion, and Rollo with Duke Robert set out for Rouen.

Paul's Mistake (Be Strong, Not Whiny)
(continuing with the previously titled "Developers: You Are Whats Wrong With the iPhone AppStore")
You pounded your fists because Apple didn't have a "real" SDK, so Apple created one. Then you pounded your fists because the approval process is too slow, so Apple hired a bunch of noobs. Now you're pounding your fists because the newbies aren't consistent in their execution.
Stop. Stop making iPhone apps. Stop complaining about Apple. Stop using their phone. Stop.
I am a long time Mac user, and I will tell you that nobody cares about your app, least of all Apple. I didn't buy the iPhone because of you, I bought it because of Apple. Apple put a bunch of cool things on it, and they all work (mostly) great. Most AppStore apps sell for a dollar, because thats about all they're worth. (BTW: please disprove this by creating something valuable.)
Since Apple made a great phone, they have become popular. But Apple isn't good at popular. Popular people have to bend to the will of others to stay popular, and that just isn't Jobs, and it isn't me either. Apple wants to be the best, and you have to be a little elitist to do that. You have to somewhat ignore what everyone wants and concentrate on what is best. Personally, I'm okay with this, and so are most of the people who bought an iPhone.
When Apple releases a tablet, will your iPhone app work on that? Of course not. What about Google's Droid? Not there either. Your apps will be rewritten (and re-tested) on every platform there is. The reason that we were all making web apps before the iPhone was that web apps actually work everywhere. JavaScript+HTML is the data interchange format for executable code (delivering what Java was supposed to). Don't like Apple's phone? Get a new one, your email, photos and web applications will continue to work there. Man that sounds nice, doesn't it.
If Apple is pissing off developers, I personally think this is great. Instead of building yet another iPhone app that Apple has to test and only your friends will ever use, you'll think about building your own hardware, or an app for another phone, or a web app that will be usable on any device for decades. Better yet, build a WebAppStore that works exactly like the AppStore, but for web applications.
You can pound your fists all you want, but only a couple of your peers are even listening.

Recon - Lake of the Woods & Webber Falls Part I
Yesterday, I had a brilliant idea to be the first one to fish Lake of the Woods at ice-out. Independence Lake is ice free I've been told and I heard that guys have been fishing Webber Lake since last weekend, so i figured it was worth a shot. You can drive a couple hundred yards or so from the dirt road turn off, then its solid snow for the next two miles. We packed in tubes with spirits high since there were no tracks ahead of us. This is what we saw. A couple weeks too early. Despite a little open water, no fish were cruising. Being in the area, we hiked down to Webber falls, holy $#@%! Its blown out and amazing to see.

Impressive amount of water in the video. Too bad about the lake still being frozen over. Looks like beautiful country and well worth the hike.

Those are some great pics. Crazy to hear about lakes being frozen in other places when it has been in the 80s here. That waterfall looks awesome. Tight Lines

Just discovered your blog. I like it.
I bet a lot of stockers from Webber are down in the LT below the falls(s) now ;)
Anyone make it up to Milton yet??

Glad you like it. The road is snowed in just past the Webber turnoff, so you can't get back there without a sled or tracked vehicle. I'm sure there are some dandies below Webber right now. Regards.

2019 Riviera 57 Enclosed Flynridge
2019 Riviera 57 Enclosed Flynridge
Now, we present to you the supremely seaworthy, easy-to-skipper and absolutely luxurious Riviera 57 Enclosed Flybridge â in many ways she is your creation just as much as ours.
She is stylish, sophisticated and sublime ⦠and proudly embodies the hallmark dependability for which Riviera is internationally renowned.
Notably, the 57 is available with your choice of either conventional shaft drive or innovative pod propulsion â one of the first yachts in the world to offer owners such flexibility. Of course such world-leading thinking and creativity in design is evident right throughout this world-class Riviera, which has been built to last with global best-practice standards foremost in mind.
Youâll notice her distinctive design â including her fully enclosed flybridge â that has everything in perfect proportion. Indeed, with her contemporary styling and impeccable blue-water pedigree, the robust Riviera 57 Enclosed exhibits powerful and noble lines with a muscular sheer forward and deep topside dimensions, giving her a freeboard akin to a much larger yacht altogether.
The full magnitude is complemented by the fact her hull lines run straight aft from the maximum mid-ship beam of 5.13m (16' 10"). This, in turn, provides an extremely buoyant lift and an easy planing surface, as well as great stability, enhancing her penultimate blue-water performance.
Indeed, there's less the sense of a scaled-up 50-footer as there might be of a scaled-down 60-something. (The 57's overall length with swim platform and bow sprit is actually 60â8â)
Key features
Sleek and stylish external design, strong robust hull with keel
The cockpit layout creates an entirely new indoor/outdoor experience, including transom lounge and storage, wet bar with twin BBQ, fridge and ice-maker
Large awning window and sliding glass door set in a strong stainless steel frame connects the modern aft galley with the cockpit
Wide walk-around side decks with thoughtfully placed hand rails for added safety
Large foredeck with optional sun pad or davit for tender
Luxurious internal furnishings with the finest fabrics and leathers, as well as high-end appliances
Sliding saloon windows enhance natural light and cross ventilation
Three-stateroom, two-bathroom accommodation plan. Full-beam master stateroom with ensuite and long fixed hull windows and optional portholes
Feature bed headboards in every stateroom, complemented by subtle LED mood lighting
Reverse-cycle air-conditioning throughout
Luxurious, ultra-modern flybridge enclosed on all four sides, with optional clears to fully enclose the rear deck
Striking ergonomic helm design and centre console, excellent visibility and easy access to all controls, adjusting helm seats
Flybridge docking station with joystick, throttles and steering wheel for IPS, or throttles and bow thruster for shaft drive, with optional EJS

CZone digital switching â with various modes and simple touch-screen operation of onboard systems, with optional iPad connectivity
Your choice of twin Volvo Penta IPS2-950 (2 x 533kW/727hp), IPS3-1200 (2 x 662kW/900hp) or conventional CAT C12.9 shaft drive (2 x 735kW/1000hp)
Maintenance-free battery banks
Mastervolt battery chargers and inverter
Fuel capacity 4000 litres (1071 US gal), water capacity 750 litres (198 US gal)
Water-tight collision bulkhead forward
Rivieraâs renowned hallmark built to last philosophy

News and Personal dispatches from the front and the home front. (New complete posts come in below)
Blackfive: Memorial Day - They Sacrificed their tomorrows for us - "If our eyes grow dull, other hands slack, and other hearts cold in the solemn trust, ours shall keep it well as long as the light and warmth of life remain to us." - General Orders No.11, WASHINGTON, D.C., May 5, 1868, Headquarters, Grand Army of the Republic. "The solemn trust." "Ours shall keep it well as long as the light and warmth of life remain in us." The quote above is from the order establishing a day in May to gather and present flowers upon the graves of the Fallen. In other words, it is our duty to remember those who gave all on Memorial Day. The General Order continues: Let us, then, at the time appointed gather around their sacred remains and garland the passionless mounds above them with the choicest flowers of spring-time; let us raise above them the dear old flag they saved from dishonor; let us in this solemn presence renew our pledges to aid and assist those whom they have left among us a sacred charge upon a nation's gratitude, the soldier's and sailor's widow and orphan. As it was one hundred and forty two years ago, it is the same today. (READ MORE)
MAJ C: Memorial Day - I am going to do a number of articles about this weekend. I wanted to take them in bite size chunks per say, and address individual topics. Today I wanted to take a moment and talk about what I personally feel this very moment about Memorial Day. You see I was sitting here taking a break -- listening to the jets taking off and it got me thinking. How many young men have sat in a similar situation, listening to jets taking off, or going overhead? How many of them left their Country that they loved more then their own life and traveled to a distant land? How many of them fought for their Country and their Brothers and Sisters in Arms? How many never came home.....I don't ask those questions because Im looking for a number. Those numbers are out there -- and thats not the point. I think the point is to stop and think just about all of those individual men and women who at some point looked up and listened to jets going overhead. (READ MORE)
MAJ C: Memorial Day Part Two - I was going through some pictures last night from past deployments, and I took this one in the Pat Tillman USO at Bagram Air Base a couple years back. It was created by a TSgt Michael Bishop in 2004, and hangs in the foyer area of the USO. The reason I wanted to highlight this is the idea of all of those who have sacrificed so much for all of us. As we approach Memorial Day, Pat Tillman is one of many who gave their lives in service to and out of love for their Country and their fellow man. But I believe he is a wonderful example to highlight. He was a College Football Star, and a National Football League Player. He walked away from the money and fame after 9-11 though, and enlisted in the Army and joined the Infantry and the Rangers. He sacrificed his life for his Country in 2004 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, Afghanistan. You don't see that too often anymore. (READ MORE)
Bouhammer: "Idiots on the Internet" week? - This has been a hell of a week in the milblog world. For some reason the sun and warmth of the cusp into the summer season has brought out idiots across the internet that have felt it necessary to pick fights with many of the leading milblogs. Between David Axe, Michael Yon, Craig Hooper, Robert Pelton Young and others the idiots have come out of the woodwork this week. I was thinking about calling it the 1st Annual "Idiots on the Internet" week, but several of my friends thought I would just give these guys traffic and credit they don't deserve. I used to like and respect Yon, but over the last month I have not only read many of his whacked out postings on his Facebook account, but also on his blog and have talked with several "behind-the-scenes" folks that know him personally and I have determined this guy lost his mind. He is like a mix of Marlon Brando's COL Kurtz and Dennis Hopper's character in Apocalypse Now. (READ MORE)
Greg Mills: Kandahar Through the Taliban's Eyes - For U.S. President Barack Obama, ruminating about the course of the war in Afghanistan from Washington, the distant provinces of Helmand and Kandahar cannot be far from his mind. Winning back Afghanistan's critical southern heartland is the primary focus of the 46-country International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), which is surging its troop strength past the 100,000 mark. As if to highlight the allied forces' anxiety, this month U.S. commanders downgraded the Kandahar offensive to a "process." Whatever you call it, shifting the locus of attention to Kandahar makes strategic sense. Kandahar city is the birthplace of the Islamist movement, considered even before the birth of the Taliban as the "Philadelphia of Afghanistan" for its central role in the creation of the modern state. Kandahar, once the capital city of 18th-century Afghanistan, has been swelled by an influx of refugees and is now the home of approximately 900,000 people. (READ MORE)
Andrew Lebovich: Daily Brief: Afghan Police: Pakistani Taliban leader rumored killed - Afghan police claim that Maulana Fazlullah, the chief of the Swat Valley Taliban, was killed during clashes in the eastern Afghan province of Nuristan, after several days of fighting there. Fazlullah's death has been reported before and has not been confirmed, and the self-proclaimed military commander in Nuristan denied that Fazlullah had been killed, or had even staged the attack in the province. Elsewhere Pakistani aircraft bombarded militant positions in Orakzai agency, reportedly killing 15 fighters. The United States today released $288 million today under the Coalition Support Fund, which is designed to help Pakistan pay for ongoing operations against militant groups. And unidentified fighters killed a pro-government tribal elder and his family in Bajaur. Separately, the World Bank has given Pakistan a 48-hour deadline to implement a Value Added Tax (VAT) and electricity tariff hike, in order to receive $300 million in June under the Bank's poverty support credit program.

Army Live: Eyes of the Army's Boots on the Ground - One MILLION flight hours. I picture Dr. Evil saying this with his pinky up. The Army Unmanned Aircraft Systems recently surpassed one million flight hours. What's the big deal you ask? Those one million hours represent time spent keeping Soldiers safe. What's also interesting is it took the Army 13 years to fly the first 100,000 miles. Eighty-eight percent of the million hours were flown in Iraq or Afghanistan. To celebrate the milestone, several interactive aircraft displays were set up in the Pentagon Courtyard this week. No, they didn't fly in, land, or take off, but their operators had some good stories. I got the chance to hear from a few UAS flight operators and combat veterans about all the new technology and their own roles on the battlefield. Are you wondering why the Army even has unmanned aircrafts when the Air Force has them as well? Let me tell ya, there's room for both. (READ MORE)
Brad's Excellent Adventure: Memorial Day - Thursday 27 May 2010, 2330 - Today I had an experience that was hardly unique, but that was a first for me. I attended a memorial service for two soldiers who recently died in combat in Afghanistan. It was a very moving and sobering experience. I would not want to repeat it, but I do not want to forget it. The service was held this morning at 10:00 AM in the chapel at Patrick Henry Village, the U.S. housing area where I live in Heidelberg. The announcement of the service came a couple of days ago via email. I didn't know the soldiers personally, but one of the NCO's in our section knew one of them, and we all went. (Well, almost all of us. One of my colleagues was headed in the other direction and I asked him if he was going. He said "No, I've been to too many of those." I sort of shrugged it off and went on my way.) The two men served with V Corps in Afghanistan. (READ MORE)
One Marine's View: Remember Memorial Day and America's freedom fighter - This Memorial weekend I got it, you have things to do, people to see. Families will travel, rest will be taken. But for all that is holy, please take if it's only a few minutes and think of your warriors who will and have in the past walked through fire for you and this great country. It has been my humble pleasure to serve with some of the greatest citizens that routinely make the ultimate sacrifice to America and its people. For you they go into the usually worse conditions, at the worse time and make the biggest difference. Politics aside throughout the years, your warriors have gone and did the unpopular, the impossible and the unachievable and returned with stellar results and then got ready to do it again. On the flip side of that coin, there is unseen group of family members that wait, worry, cry, and cheer when they return one way or another. (READ MORE)
American Ranger: Memorial Day 2010 - Remembering Our Lost Warriors - I remember the 18-year-old kid from Tennessee who let me use his transistor radio, the baby-faced private from North Carolina with the big grin, the staff sergeant and the two sergeants stretched out in body bags at my feet. All of their names are on the Vietnam wall because they gave their lives for their country. I also remember one particular lieutenant. Late in 1970, after several months as an infantry platoon leader, I got sick as a dog one morning after we returned to the firebase. At first the medics thought it was malaria, but it was another miserable jungle virus, and I was laid up in the rear area for about a month. Unfortunately, another lieutenant was sent to take over my platoon. When I recovered, I asked the battalion commander to re-assign me to another platoon in the field. He said he would let me fill the next platoon leader vacancy. When the lieutenant for the second platoon of Bravo Company rotated back to the States, I politely reminded the battalion commander of his promise. (READ MORE)
Helmand Blog - Afghanistan: School's in for British troops on Afghanistan's frontline - Lieutenant Laura Bullen (28) from Bridge of Allan, Stirling is an Educational Training Services officer with the 1st Battalion the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment, or 1 Lancs, currently based out of forward operating base Shawqat in Nad-e-Ali. She says: "My job here is to continue the education of 1 Lancs soldiers. The soldiers have periods of down time, they're not continuously out fighting, and it is during these periods that I'm here to do education. "I open up the education centre in Shawqat and then anyone can drop in. I have lots of guys on camp who are doing courses at the moment and they pop by when they have a spare five or ten minutes, ask some questions, get some more work from me and then get back to their day jobs." Whilst on tour, it's Laura's job to teach the soldiers of 1 Lancs and get them through the necessary courses that they need to do. (READ MORE)
IraqPundit: No Honour, Plenty of Shame - The State of Law and INA are still talking about a united front. A spokesman for the State of Law said he understands the Sadr movement's reluctance to accept Maliki as prime minister again. But Iran is still pushing for the Shiite lists to form a union. The Sadr gang is so opposed to Maliki that they started a rumour that his retirement pension is $30 million (U.S.) a year. The Maliki people reportedly said no, his pension is actually $145 thousand (U.S.) a year. That's a nice sum anywhere, but it's especially big in Iraq. He has every reason to retire and enjoy his life. But of course he insists that he should be prime minister again even though he didn't win the March 7 election. Maybe he wants to skim more from all the deals coming to Iraq. While the politicians continue their fight for the eleventh week, Austria's capital city Vienna was named the best place to live in the world and Baghdad the worst. (READ MORE)
Kit Up!: Soldiers' Perspective: The M320 Grenade Launcher - In the damned if you do, damned if you don't category, the Army's new M320 grenade launcher is facing stiff criticism over one of the principle advantages of the system requested by Soldiers and touted by the Army. There were lots of M320s among Joes in the 3rd BCT of the 101st Airborne — in fact I don't remember seeing a single M203 among them. But just about everyone I asked about the new H&K-made M320 was that they miss the 203. I got the sense that this was mostly a reaction against changing from a tried and true system to one with a couple more whistles and bells than the simple, streamlined M203. Soldiers complained about the pistol grip handle catching on things, the forward grip and the sighting system. Even the side loading mechanism didn't impress — though the Army touts that capability as a plus since it allows the M320 to take longer, more high-tech rounds. (READ MORE)
Knights of Afghanistan: Twisting in the Wind - Well, no sooner do I touch down in Kabul than I get an email from the DoD's Joint Contracting Command that the solicitation for the TWSS program has been cancelled. The entire solicitation, a proposal we and our partners have spent six months working on, and the contracting office just up and decides that they're not going to proceed. No explanation given beyond "the U.S. Government has determined the subject Solicitation no longer meets it's needs." The TWSS program (Theatre-Wide Security Services, pronounced Twist) was intended to be an umbrella program for the provision of static security at U.S. Army facilities throughout Afghanistan.* The idea was that JCC would solicit proposals from all the major PSCs and then elvaluate them based upon techincal/operational capabilities, companies' financial resources, and of course, price. The top six or eight outfits would then be selected as "pre-approved" for future work. (READ MORE)
Knottie's Niche: RIP Lt John Finn… - A little over a year ago I met some very amazing men. The all had received the Medal Of Honor and wore it with pride for all those who served with them. None of them claimed it as their own. I was told before going to this gathering I had to take Guinness and drink one with Lt John Finn. And so I did. On Dec 7th 1941 many Heroes were made. John Finn is one of those men who received the Medal of Honor for his bravery on that day. He said he didn't deserve it and simply held it for all the others who fought and died that December day. I disagree. On that Dec. Morning John held his position firing on the enemy for over two hours even though he himself had been hit 21 times. Several of his wounds serious. Once the skies were quiet he sought medical help after being ordered to and then returned to help rearm the remaining airplanes at Kanoehe Bay. Because Kanoehe was hit 5 minutes before Pearl Harbor many believe that John Finn is the first one to earn the Medal of Honor during WW2. (READ MORE)
Bill Roggio: Nuristani Taliban commander denies Fazlullah killed - A top Taliban commander in eastern Afghanistan denied a wanted Pakistani Taliban leader was killed in fighting in the region. Mullah Munibullah, the Taliban's military commander for Nuristan, denied that Mullah Fazlullah, the Taliban leader of the district of Swat in Pakistan, was killed during clashes along the border region. Munibullah said that while Fazlullah had been in the region, he was no longer there and would not have led a military attack regardless. "There is no truth in Afghan government claims and media reports that Maulana Fazlullah-led Pakistani Taliban attacked some posts of the Afghan army and police at Barg-e-Matal," Munibullah told The News. "I am military commander of Nuristan province and no such incident happened here." "It is almost impossible for an outsider like Maulana Fazlullah to raise a group of 300 militants in Nuristan and attack security posts," Munibullah continued in his interview with The News.

Bill Roggio: Mullah Fazlullah reported killed in Afghanistan - An Afghan police commander claimed that his forces killed a top Pakistani Taliban leader during a clash in Nuristan province. The report has not been confirmed by US officials. Mullah Qari Fazlullah, the Taliban commander of the Pakistani district of Swat, was said to have been killed during a clash last night by Afghan border police. "Maulvi Fazlullah was killed in direct clash with Afghan border police...last night," Mohammed Zaman Mamozai, the chief of the border police force for eastern Afghanistan told The News. Fazlullah was reported to have been killed along with six other Taliban fighters. US military and intelligence officials contacted by The Long War Journal could not confirm or deny the reports of Fazlullah's death. "If the Afghan border police killed him, we should see the corpse," a military officer serving in the region told The Long War Journal. "It shouldn't be difficult to confirm or deny it is him."

Two Brothers, Two Countries, One Army: Another Update - Well, it has been a little while since I wrote anything that was worth reading. Now I am going to see if I can keep your attention for a little while. Tomorrow is Courtney's birthday and she will be six. SIX!!! My little girl is six. Where in the hell did time go? Oh wait…that's right…I spent a year of that in Afghanistan and now another one. Being a father and in the military is not easy. You miss a lot and it hurts at times. Oh and she is graduating Kindergarten today as well. I am so proud of her and wish her mom would answer the phone for once so I could tell her. It drives me crazy. Life here isn't too bad. I have been doing the best I can, but of course I keep screwing up. It is little stuff that is adding up. OK, one was very important. But I fixed it. My room is pretty crappy. It is not as nice as Bagram but the only thing I do there is sleep. The rest of the day I am in the office. Hopefully it will get better. (READ MORE)
The Unknown Soldiers: Field of dreams - Chief Warrant Officer Michael McHugh was serving in Iraq when heartbreaking news reached him from another post-9/11 battlefield. His hero, mentor, and guiding voice had been tragically killed in Afghanistan. Chief Warrant Officer McHugh quickly boarded a plane to Kuwait and soon knelt beside the departed warrior's flag-draped casket. The fallen soldier was his father, Col. John McHugh, and it was time to bring him home. While losing any servicemember is devastating, the scope and far-reaching impact of this tragedy is nearly incomprehensible. Col. McHugh was not only a key U.S. military leader, but a bedrock of unconditional love, neverending support, and strong principles for his family, particularly his five children. After spending much of the morning and early afternoon reading moving articles and incredible posts shared on a Facebook group dedicated to this honorable man and his family, it is clear that his legacy is already beginning to take shape.

The Security Crank: Nomad Assault Fuels Afghan Disarray - Pick up the paper — or listen to many military commanders – and you'd think Afghanistan was a two-sided war: NATO vs. the Taliban. The reality is way, way, waaayyyy more complicated than that. Take one the boiling conflict between a group of semi-nomads, the Kuchi, and a long-suffering minority group, the Hazaras. The fight threatens to upend order in Afghanistan's Wardak province. But there is literally not a peep about it in the Western press. Thousands of Afghans staged protests last week in Kabul, Daikondi, and Bamiyan. At issue was something of an annual ritual: violent clashes between Kuchis and Hazaras, in the two Behsud districts of Wardak province. The Kuchi were roaming with their herds of sheep and camels through Central Afghanistan on one of their annual migrations. Some years, they clash violently with settlers along the way. This is one of those years. (READ MORE)

Why I've been quiet...
...I seem to have been bitten by the knitting-bug. Hard. I've knit more pieces in the past few months than I have — in total — for the past several years.
Years ago, I did a simple Fair Isle swatch in two colours. The swatches pictured above are my first crack at complex colourwork. These swatches use both Fair Isle and Intarsia knitting techniques.
I developed the colour charts myself (not that making a chart of 8-bit sprites is that hard) and am working on them to practice for a commission I've taken on. My plan is to complete all six FFI Before Class Change Party Sprites before I start the commissioned sweater.
I don't know how I could possibly make this any more nerdy than it already is.

Page Rank is very important to your website, as are many other web marketing services. Of course SEO is important, but there any many other ways to improve your Page Rank. When developing and constructing a website, be sure to build your site with smart architecture. Faceted navigation is important for your website and any online marketing you plan on exploring. Users should be able to explore by filtering available information so make sure navigation around your website is simple, easy to read and doesn't need explanation.
While developing your website it is important to be sure all broken links are fixed. Links are constructed many times based on SEO and small errors can be overlooked. When 404 errors occur throughout your website, Google may take that as a lack of credibility. If you can't fix 404 errors, be sure to redirect the page to a relevant content-rich page. Follow simple online services outlines to figure out redirection.
When deciding on a host for your website, make sure you choose a fast server. A hosting server that utilizes multiple resources will be sure to load your website at a faster rate. Google also views this as one of there many classifications for ranking. Choosing a host is just as important as choosing your web marketing company.
One last important feature of a website that helps with Page Rank is an XML sitemap. An XML sitemap lists are the URLs for a website and informs search engines of the links. Search engines look for the urls as well as the SEO services implemented into these pages when doing a web search.

Today, we will continue to identify ways for Studio Diatribes to improve its web usability.
The server that hosts the site is fast which, at least on my desktop computer, masks how slowly the site loads. I am loading the homepage on my iPhone using a 3G connection and after three minutes the site has not completed loading. This is unbearably slow and while I still see it trying to load the last of the page, I'm going to stop it from trying.
I tried to print the homepage to see if the theme has provided a print-specific CSS file and it has. The print file creates black type with a white background which is more desirable than wasting the visitor's ink supply by printing large areas of the dark brown. That's when I saw that the resulting print would be 72 pages. There is no reason a site—particularly a photo blog—should be this length. A text blog would at least load quickly and be relatively small in size but all these photos take up unnecessary download time.
A quick search shows that the site ranks well with a google organic search for Freehold Photographers but I couldn't find it while searching for Millburn Photographers or Staten Island Photographers. Part of this can be attributed to the lack of keyword-rich text on their home page. What text there is does not describe the company, but rather, describes the events. I believe this is a mistake in that this approach hinders SEO. Also, in the way that the page is set up, they offer the visitor ten offsite links before they show the first photograph of the first event. That's an invitation to leave the site when they should be trying to get people deeper into it.

Early this week, The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) approved a plan to increase the number of Internet domain name endings, called generic top-level domains (gTLDs). In other words, the dot-com era is over and anyone can register any name they want as a web address.
Instead of having companies use the 22 generic gTLDs, which include .com, .net and .edu, users will be able to end their addresses with anything: the name of their company, such as coca.cola, or their city, jpmorgan.nyc or jpmorgan.europe. This can be very helpful for internet marketing and even search engine optimization (SEO).
Although the idea behind the upcoming change was to potentially spur innovation and give companies and users more choice on the Internet, search engines are already warning Internet users that the change has potential to create widespread user confusion. If someone wanted to search for Wells Fargo, would that be wellsfargo.com, wells.fargo or wellsfargo.bank? Although useful for internet marketing purposes, until the general internet users catch up, it may not be as effective as we think from the get-go.
Beginning in 2010, ICANN will be accepting applications for address changes, but not everyone will be jumping for a quick domain change. Just to apply, a company, government or individual must pay ICANN $185,000 and the application itself is a few hundred pages long. If approved, the annual fee to operate the registry is $25,000.
There's no doubt big companies and corporations will acquire their business names for the end of their web address: .coke, .pepsi, .mcdonalds, and there's talk around the internet of cities taking ownership of .newyorkcity, .miami, etc, but small businesses will most likely stick to their $10/month register domain, at least for now.
The question stirring all over the Internet is whether this is a great branding opportunity or a confusing online chaos? From an internet marketing perspective, the creative possibilities are exciting. Think about enjoy.coke, frappuccino.starbucks or justdoit.nike, anything could be possible and there are endless marketing techniques. For search engines and users, there will without a doubt be confusion. How do you search for an iPad? Apple.com/ipad or ipad.apple?
There's no doubt we will all catch up to the change in the long run, but getting there may be challenging and expensive for the companies participating in the new rule change. It did take us about ten years to catch on to the dot-coms and dot-nets.

"Let darkness and black gloom claim it; Let a cloud settle on it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.
There were those who dwelt in darkness and in the shadow of death, Prisoners in misery and chains,

Community Groups
WHAT ARE COMMUNITY GROUPS - Community Groups generally meet in homes two evenings per month. These small groups (usually 10 to 20 people total, including children) are led by various ministry leaders and elders. They are designed to be a place where members of our church connect with each other more deeply as family, encourage each other, pray for one another, and grow in faith. Entire families participate together during times of praise, study, sermon discussion, and fellowship.
Community groups are designed to help HCF members:
What happens during a Community Group?
After a time of fellowship and praising God in song and/or prayer, members revisit the sermon that was preached earlier in the day and consider the passage of Scripture from which it was drawn. The leader facilitates open discussion and assists the group in further considering what the Biblical author wanted readers to understand from the passage. This time of digging deeper through questions and group discussion reinforces the morning message and addresses questions that Harvest members might have.
If you have further questions about Community Groups, please speak with an elder or call the church office [ph: 804-559-4232]. HCF Members, if you would like to join a group, contact the church office.

John Robert Stevens 1919 – 1983
A Childhood Healing
One night in the mid-1920s, John Robert Stevens suffered in the throes of a longstanding mastoid infection and the promise of James 5:14-15 came to young Stevens' rememberance. "Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church… and the Lord will raise him up…" A visiting evangelist prayed for Stevens, and he was miraculously healed. Read More
Seeking the Lord in His Youth
Perhaps some would have simply thanked God for such a miracle and went about their lives as before. However, for John Stevens, this experience formed the basis of the message that he determined to share with the world: Every individual can have a personal walk with God. In 1933, at the age of thirteen, Stevens had another extraordinary meeting with the Lord which solidified his calling: he received the Holy Spirit and saw a vision of himself speaking to many people in many languages and in many nations. This vision later came to pass as the Word of God Stevens spoke was recorded and sent to the ends of the earth. Read More
Founder of The Living Word Fellowship
Stevens made a permanent move to the Los Angeles area in 1946. In 1949, he experienced a milestone revelation from the Lord which included a vision of the purity and power of the first-century Church as described in the book of Acts. Stevens established Grace Chapel of South Gate, California, in June 1951 according to this vision. It was the first church in what would later be known as The Living Word Fellowship. Read More
An Apostle to the Kingdom
Throughout the 1950s, Stevens received numerous revelations of his calling as an apostle. His initial response, however, was not one of faith; Stevens had a difficult time thinking of himself in that way. But the revelations and the prophecies did not stop, so Stevens realized that he had to accept what God had called him to be. In 1962, he spent some time in Yucaipa, California, seeking the Lord and repenting for his reluctance regarding the call of apostleship over his life. It was there that the Lord appeared to him and gave a final impartation and commission establishing him as an apostle. Read More
Stevens' Ministry Grows
In the mid-60s, Living Word Publications was established to preserve and publish the messages being spoken by Stevens. The end of the 1960s brought an enormous influx of young people; and in the early 1970s, partially through the distribution of books, pamphlets, and tape recordings, a number of pastors around the world came to Stevens and asked to affiliate their churches with him. Read More
Stevens' Legacy
John Robert Stevens was born in Story County, Iowa on August 7, 1919, and passed away on June 4, 1983 in Los Angeles, California. Stevens was one of the most anointed, matured, and prolific ministries of his time. John Stevens' legacy includes not only the churches he founded and Word of God that he spoke, but the many believers he brought into a closer relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Perhaps without knowing exactly what it would mean when he committed it to paper, Stevens foreshadowed his remarkable life and ministry when he wrote in "To Be a Christian": "I am sure He will not waste a fragment of my life if I let Him possess and direct it."

Part – II
Ire of gods and sorrow of souls
Section 1: Punishments of goddesses
Welcome home
Welcome home warrior!
In the evening of January 5, '08, I recounted my entry in Hotel Taj of Jodhpur on December 21 '05 and garlanding by Chamunda. I had set out for a war for Chamunda the day next. Evening of January 5 marked the conclusion of the long drama in Dehradun after two years when the deity communicated "Welcome home warrior!"
Even Chamunda had lived moments of despair and anxiety like a common woman charged with negative feeling between the years of her betrothal and the date of her welcoming me as her warrior. She was fighting her rival Swati parsina and her followers of past; and, she was aware that my mind was possessed by her alien. Chamunda's state of mind was like every dignified and courageous Rajput wife in Rajasthan after she sent her husband to a battle giving a piece of jaggery; and, living thereafter through a projected trauma of fiery fate of sati when her warrior fell on the ground, not to get up again.
Chamunda was just like a woman of Rajasthan in the moments of her welcoming on January 5, no more a goddess. A realization dawned upon me after the event: she was tracking me ever since I visited her shrine at Osiyan fourteen years ago; and, the goddess was caring for my survival till she declared "Welcome home warrior!" These were years when her rival Swati had occupied my mind and commanded me at will like her dog. It was natural that Chamunda lived as a worried wife for these many years, seeing her tiger fighting and surviving the onslaught of the aliens luring him with the position of a post and power of money.
Besides the above, there was also a tyranny of a marauding Swati parsina. The goddess was hell bent for disrupting my success in the battlefield through her lethal fireworks. Her killing my daughter-in-law was aimed at shaking my nerves when I was just inching towards success. Goddess Chamunda demonstrated to the goddess of distant land that her leopards, howsoever cunning, are no match in their nerves to lone tiger.

As we dredge our way towards the 48 hour mark, the fate of Jeremy Corbyn's shadow cabinet is still uncertain. Labour politicians are unaware as to whether they'll wake up with a cabinet position or not.
And everyone following the action is bored they're just spending all their time on Twitter making jokes about every little tidbit of information that gets out.
First it looked like Hilary Benn might be sacked...

Social Good Summit Kabul Goes ViralSep 28, 2014
UNDP Afghanistan, in partnership with the Afghanistan Centre at Kabul University, brought together on 21 September 2014 over a hundred students, civil society activists, computer programme developers and entrepreneurs for the 2014 Social Good Summit Kabul to join a global crowd on how new media and technology can contribute to the future of our planet.
This was part of a bigger initiative in which UNDP led at the global level a conversation on 21 and 22 September through social good summits in New York and across the world on the role technology and innovations have to play in achieving equality for all by 2030. These efforts took place just before the high-level events at the UN General Assembly in New York, making sure voices from around the globe reach world leaders.
Upon opening the summit in Kabul, the UNDP Country Director for Afghanistan, Ms. Marta Ruedas, called the event a "unique opportunity" to connect people. She encouraged young Afghans to take a prominent part in this global conversation. "Let the people around the world know how Afghan youth are engaged in crafting innovative solutions to respond to people's basic needs such as literacy, health counselling and price information for crops, and thus attract global attention
This summit featured a project that raised funds for Badakhshan landslide victims by using the social media, and initiatives that have made literacy lessons, health counselling and money transactions possible through mobile phones. In addition, a panel composed of Afghan civil society activists and technology experts discussed how social media and digital technology can mobilize people to raise their voices, change people's behaviour towards their living environment, reinvent the way we learn, and enable farmers to receive real-time market information to increase their income. Engagement during the panel discussion was very dynamic. Participants asked questions, expressed views as well as shared live updates with their networks on social media.
Forming a platform to connect with the Social Good Summit in New York City and social good meetups in 170 countries in 45 languages, as well as with the broader Afghan community on social media, the Kabul summit attendees— one third of whom were female— tweeted their views, photos and updates from the event using #2030Now and #SGSKabul.
Tweets on Social Good Summit Kabul were enthusiastically favourited and retweeted locally by Afghans and globally by UNDP colleagues and plus_SocialGood twitter. The plus_SocialGood website has run two stories on the Kabul summit one of which mentioned Afghanistan as one of the top three contributors, alongside India and Belorussia, to the Social Good Summit globally. A segment of the story reads, "The Social Good Summit in Kabul hosted by UNDP Afghanistan in partnership with the Afghanistan Centre at Kabul University set the stage for an electrifying conversation about the power of social media to connect people." The Afghanistan social good hashtag, #SGSKabul, has gone viral, which even ended up being retweeted by the UNDP Administrator Helen Clark twitter to around 7,000 of her followers.
This record engagement of Afghans at a global level signifies their craving for change in their lives and the degree they identify with new media and technology in a country tainted with conflict, corruption and illiteracy.
* You can find a summary of the tweets about Social Good Summit Kabul on plus_SocialGood's storify. To read more tweets about the summit, look up the hashtag #SGSKabul.

Give J.K. Rowling's agent, publicist, or whoever's in charge of everything she does a raise, because they're making a mountain of amazingly smart decisions. When it was revealed that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child would be a play, they realized the money they could make by publishing the play. It was a canonical entry in the Harry Potter lore, after all, and fans would be frothing at the mouth to see what happens next — even if they couldn't fly all the way to London to do so. The success of that publication must've been an indication that Rowling's readers are willing to read anything from J.K. Rowling, even if it was just a play she wasn't fully responsible for writing.
Next month, fans will get to enjoy Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the next film set in the famous Wizarding World. This time around, the story will take place in New York City decades before the Harry Potter story. It's also notable for not being based on any solid source material (apart from a fake textbook Rowling threw together), and for the fact that J.K. Rowling herself penned the screenplay for the flick.
Seeing the opportunity for another solid source of income, it looks like either the studio, Rowling's publisher, or both, decided to publish the Fantastic Beasts screenplay in its entirety. The reveal came via Rowling's Twitter account, where she shared a photo of an early copy, along with the caption:
"Advance copies never, ever lose their thrill!â€
Check out the photo below:
As you've probably inferred based on my comments above, this is a smart move to make. While, yes, the film itself will be available in a short month, the fact is that superfans will head to the bookstore in droves to get a look at the words Rowling actually put to paper. As both a cinephile and a bibliophile, this is something that's right down my alley, as I get to experience the first screenplay from one of the most talented authors working today. If you've ever read a screenplay before, it's a unique form of storytelling in that it's ultimately incomplete, as the story in a script is only really fully told when it's realized on the big screen. With that in mind, it'll be fun to see how one from Rowling will read (I can imagine it'll have extra flourishes to make it more entertaining than most scripts tend to be).
There's no word yet on when the screenplay will get released, but it's probably safe to say it'll either be after the film's release, or simultaneous with the film's release, so as to limit the number of spoilers before fans have a chance to see the flick.
What do you think of this news? Will you be one of the fans who will go out and buy this bad boy? Let us knowyour thoughts down below!
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them hits theaters on November 18, 2016.
