Matthew 25:40 "And the King will tell them, 'I assure you, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me.'"
Last week I was able to be a small part in something huge. Our church was able to host a Royal Kids Family Camp. I encourage you to check out the link if you have never heard of it before. We were able to minister for an entire week to children who have experiences things a child should never have to experience. But they were in the presence of the King. You could feel it all over the Camp. In every square inch in every corner it was covered with God's love for these children. We were able to celebrate each child's birthday and sing happy birthday to them. Some of them will never have a birthday outside of the camp birthday they have. And one night their special activity was launching rockets for the boys and putting on a style show for the girls. Each girl was able to create their own style. So what better way to celebrate the launching of rockets and these beautiful women showing off their own styles than with rocket and crown cookies!
They were a big hit with the kids and I was so happy to have been a part of the experience. I can't wait until our children are old enough to look after themselves or we can find an alternative care for them during the week so that I can be a counselor for an entire week.
If you would like to become more involved or would like more information on our specific branch of the Royal Kids Family Camp you can do so here.

The girls were over again tonight to continue our Disney movie adventure. Tonight we watched Dumbo and Bambi. Such great movies!
I did Heather's nails tonight, too! She wanted something subtle and simple. The design plan changed several times. We ended up deciding on a simple spin on a french manicure.
We used Cover Girl Outlast in Pink-finity. It is such a pretty light pink cream. It's a little on the streaky side so application can be a bit tricky, but it's lovely nonetheless. Then, we did french tips using a loose pink iridescent glitter. I love it and so does Heather. She says that they are, "Girly like a princess." She also says that you must excuse the condition of her cuticles. She's working on it. :)

China Leapfrogs U.S. in Critical Strategic Technology
The year's most important news story probably never made it into your news feed. Nonetheless it might change your life forever. For the first time, China has demonstrated that it is far ahead of the United States in a critical new technology, namely quantum communications. A Chinese satellite succeeded in transmitting so-called entangled photons to earth stations. That's the high-tech equivalent of sending a message in undeveloped photographic film: If you try to read it, the light will destroy it. The Chinese breakthrough has huge implications for cryptography, and for a host of other applications.
The tortoise just overtook the hare. We haven't woken up from a decades-long nap, and we're at serious risk of losing the race. If we do lose, there will be a name for an American who works for a Chinese: "Employed." This is not a drill. This is the real thing.
Chris Scott wrote Friday in Asia Times:
On Thursday, a team of Chinese scientists released findings from a breakthrough study that makes China the indisputable leader in the field of quantum communication, an achievement that could be of immense strategic importance.
The study, led by Pan Jianwei and published in Science magazine, successfully demonstrated the ability to distribute entangled photons across unprecedented distances, from space to earth, opening the door for the practical application of cutting-edge, ultra-secure communication....
Encryption methods used today are nearly, but not completely, impossible to hack, but with more advanced computing power the forms of encoding that protect information sent online will become more and more vulnerable. Quantum key distribution, however, is unique in that any measurement of the transmission by an eavesdropper disturbs the transmission, thereby alerting the parties sending information.
So much for the mantra, "The Chinese steal technology but don't know how to innovate." Anyone who has seen China's tech boom up close knows how dumb this view is. Books with titles like "The Coming Collapse of China" are now in their dozenth edition, while China is surging ahead in key areas of technology. China now graduates 1.3 million STEM students from its universities each year, vs. 300,000 in the US. How good are they? As Prof. Graham Allison reports in his new book The Thucydides Trap:
According to the most recent Stanford University comparison of students entering college in the fields of engineering and computer science, Chinese high school graduates arrive with a three-year advantage over their American counterparts in critical-thinking skills. In 2015, Tsinghua University passed MIT in the U.S. News & World Report rankings to become the number-one university in the world for engineering. Among the top ten schools of engineering, China and the US each had four.
China has the world's fast supercomputers built entirely out of Chinese components. It has the world's largest radio telescope. It has thousands of surface-to-ship missiles that can hail down on American aircraft carriers from the stratosphere, and it has ultra-quiet diesel electric submarines that can lurk on battery power for weeks. It has satellite killer missiles. China might spend barely over $1,000 to equip foot soldiers, about 1/100th of what America spends, but it has invested massively in high-tech defense.

|What should an apprentice do when a journeyman asks to use your tools constantly?
What about when they get mad because you don't have a certain tool that they want to borrow but it's not on your list to buy for that "level" of apprenticeship?
I mean, I have to use what money I have to buy my tools but this is the man that is "journeyman status" and does'nt even have his own, let alone getting mad if I don't.
Ralph Neidert
|I do not loan my tools to othert people. It is fairly common practice for electricvians to carry tools that aren't on the tool list, such as nut drivers, and sockets, but they are not required they just make your job easier.
When you say that the journeyman gets mad, what exactly do you mean? He is required to have his own tools.
|Just grunts and seems frustrated. Says I'm unprepaired, which is obviously his way of trying to flip it around. If I'm out of the program for this guy because he can't keep himself prepared or because I don't have what's on the list for my level that's screwed up.

Just an update:::::
My new SpotBot is working well. I am quite pleased. It is working better for spots than any professional I've had to come in. I wish the water tanks were larger, but I guess that would defeat the purpose of a small portable machine that is easy to bring out and use for one new spot.

Installing A Second CP3 - Dual Fuelers
Fixing rail pressure problems with a second CP3
Increasing power past factory levels has been absurdly easy since the computer-controlled, common-rail age hit. Still, there are limits to how much you can push the stock parts before they just can't give anymore. Turbos can only spin so fast and flow so much air, injectors can only move so much fuel, and high-pressure pumps can only maintain so much rail pressure. In both Cummins and Duramax applications, the factory Bosch CP3 pumps can only flow enough fuel to support about 600 hp at the wheels. Adding more fuel via larger injectors or a bigger pulse width tune at more than 600 hp will result in a drop in rail pressure, which leads to less horsepower.
However, there is a solution, and we went down to Pacific Performance Engineering (PPE) in Fullerton, California, to check it out. PPE's Dual Fueler kit installs a second Bosch CP3 pump above the driver side of the engine, doubling the fuel-handling capacity to 1,200 hp (or even more with nitrous). The second CP3 is computer-controlled with a microprocessor and halves the responsibility of the fuel flow to the injectors, reducing stress on both pumps. In case the factory pump becomes weak or fails, the microprocessor will direct all the responsibility to the second CP3, which means the truck won't be stranded. The Dual Fueler kit has also recently been granted a CARB E.O. number of D-701 in Duramax ('01 to '10) and D-701-2 in Cummins ('03 to '07) applications, which means it's 50-state legal.
While many people dismiss low rail pressure as a problem they'll "fix later," the truth is, the engine could be as much as 50 to 150 hp down without proper fueling. Keeping that in mind, we followed along with PPE's head technician Miguel Jimenez to see how rail pressure problems could be solved once and for all.

Do Republicans Really Work Against Their Constituents' Interests?
This is an old chestnut. For decades in Britain and Australia, Leftists fumed that about a quarter of the working class deserted "their" party and voted conservative. Books were written about it. I did some research on it. And I found that these "strange" people were actually the normal ones. It was the Left working-class voters who had deviant attitudes. The conservative working-class voters had society-wide values.
A very old conservative claim, much stressed by Benjamin Disraeli in the 19th century, is that conservatives stand for and represent the interests of the nation as a whole. Donald Trump made great use of a similar claim. Trump's victory therefore shows that such claims have a powerful appeal to all classes, including the workers. Many of the workers are therefore prepared to put the best interests of the nation before their own immediate self-interest. Disraeli saw that nobility in the workers too, calling them "angels in marble"
The article below makes a similar point: Working class conservatives and their representatives are voting for their long-term good rather than the advantage of the moment. They are smart enough not to take a simplistic Leftist bribe
Leftists don't see the world the same way, and thus they make wrong assumptions about those interests.
It's not news — not even fake news — that the political Right and the political Left don't see things the same way; they are different. The Left frequently sees things as problems that the Right doesn't regard as problems, and vice versa. And even when the two sides agree that something is a problem, they have vastly different ways of addressing it. The gulf between the two factions is arguably wider today than ever before.
The idea that Republican voters sometimes/often vote against their own interests is a Democrat talking point, and this myth was the subject of a recent New York Times podcast. The podcast host, Times managing editor Michael Barbaro, interviewed domestic-affairs correspondent Sheryl Gay Stolberg, who cited the situation in Kentucky, one of the states that suffered mightily when the war on coal put enough people out of work to run Kentucky's coal jobs to the lowest level in 118 years.
The out-of-work miners, forced onto Medicaid by the war on coal, benefited greatly from ObamaCare's Medicaid expansion, Stolberg said, "yet, its Republican senators are leading the charge for ObamaCare repeal, including for Medicaid reform. How can that be?"
The answer to that question comes from the different ways of looking at the world and at life from opposite sides of the political spectrum.
Which of the following sets of ideas do you most closely observe?
1). The nuclear family is an antiquated idea, traditional ideas of morality and culture are oppressive, sexual autonomy is a virtue, and we just can't get by without government "help."
2). We graduate from high school and possibly college, find a job to sustain ourselves, marry, and then have children and raise a family.
If you chose 1, you almost certainly lean toward the political Left; if you chose 2, you likely lean toward the political Right. These different views of how to live our lives define why Republicans vote against what seem to be their "interests."
"Now, between the two parties, which one has centered its appeal around married parents with kids and which party has doubled down on single moms?" National Review's David French asks. "Even worse, the Democrats' far-left base has intentionally attacked the nuclear family as archaic and patriarchal. It has celebrated sexual autonomy as a cardinal virtue. Then, when faced with the fractured families that result, it says, 'Here, let the government help.'"
How does this relate to Kentucky's Republican senators? They're voting on their ideas of what makes America great, and according to French, those interests "depend on the complex interplay between our faith, our families, and our communities." It's all about core values.
New York Times columnist David Brooks traces these values back to American frontier towns, where life was "fragile, perilous, lonely and remorseless," and where a "single slip could produce disaster." As a result, the frontier folk learned to practice "self-restraint, temperance, self-control and strictness of conscience."
Those values are at the heart of the American experience of carving a powerful and free republic out of a wilderness, a nation that has as a result led the world for decades. They reflect the Biblical values brought here and cultivated during America's first turbulent and troubled decades, and which formed the basis of the government created following the "Colexit" of the Colonies from Mother England's repressive grasp.
Republicans, or at least those who are true conservatives, honor the ideals of Liberty, personal responsibility, self-reliance, and limited government, and to a less-than-perfect degree — but a far greater degree than those who call themselves liberals, progressives, or socialists — try to live by these values.
Kentucky's Republican senators dislike the government's solution to the problem that the government itself created when it over-regulated nearly everything, and so they see a vote against maintaining this absurdity as a virtuous one. They prefer a system freeing Americans to make their own decisions about health care and health insurance without the one-size-fits-nobody concept Democrats created that we commonly call ObamaCare.
Their vote seemingly punishes those they should most want to help: their constituents and supporters. But the bigger picture shows instead the desire to free their constituents from the damaging big government policies that put them on the government dole. They want to create an environment where they can find another job that can sustain them above the poverty line, and off of Medicaid.
Republicans want to do away with this Democrat-created problem. Their fundamental goal is to free Americans from this horrible, failed big government mechanism. Democrats' aim is to ultimately create a single-payer, totally government-controlled health care system that would mirror the British system. You know the one: It recently took control of decisions on seriously ill infant Charlie Gard's care away from his parents, and effectively ordered Charlie's death.
That case demonstrates precisely how government-run health care will degenerate into death panels — a system where government makes decisions about who lives and dies based on numbers on a spreadsheet. And that explains why Republicans seem to vote against their constituents' interests. They're not voting against them at all, but for their Liberty.
Sometimes reality bites even feminists
Feminists In Sweden Flee 'No Go' Zones Overrun With Islamic Refugees. Muslims will do whatever you let them do and Sweden allows insane things
As refugees from Islamic countries pour into Sweden, feminists there have had enough and are fleeing suburbs after a slew of rapes and sexual assaults.
Famed feminist Nalin Pekgul, who called attention to the rising insecurity of women in the suburbs, says she now avoids the center of town in Tensta, where she lived for 30 years. And the former Left Party official Zeliha Dagli moved from Husby to the inner city.
Pekgul says she no longer feels safe in her home town, adding that Muslim fundamentalists now have full control of the center. She says "religious fundamentalists gained increasing space in the area and the place of women in the public sphere diminished," according to SVT, a television station in Sweden. Pekgul sought to raise the issue by holding coffee shop meetings, but she's been forced to give those up.
"It is clear that people have been incredibly aggressive towards me when I joined the center. Especially the last year, I ducked to sit at the restaurant that I used to sit on after several people have been on me really angry because I told you about these things," SVT reports.
"I always hope that it will blow over. One should never forget that the vast majority here are cursing the fundamentalists," she said.
Dagli has moved from the "no-go" suburb of Husby (a no-go area is one that even the police refuse to enter). She said the new Islamic refugees are acting as "morality police," attempting to control women's behavior in the area, SVT reports.
"There were rumors that we wanted to take away women's veils, we painted black community, that we were not good and decent women and we wanted MAKE SWEDISH all women. People told me that I would not write about Husby and my surroundings began to warn me. They said that I would keep myself, and then I did not feel so safe anymore."
Dagli moved to downtown Stockholm and says the same problems do not exist there.
"I feel calm, at least not controlled. Nobody cares how I dress or what I have people I talk to," she said.
BART Withholding Surveillance Videos Of Crime To Avoid 'Stereotypes'
Which tells you all you need to know. BART stands for Bay Area Rapid Transit -- which is a fancy name for an electric train. Actually, this report is a good way of warning people not to take the train. Was that the intention? Could be
SAN FRANCISCO — In the last three months, there have been at least three robberies on BART involving groups of teenagers.
"I think people are genuinely concerned — they are fearful about the stories that have come out about the recent attacks, the assaults, the thefts," said Debora Allen, who is a member of the BART Board of Directors.
April 22: Forty to sixty kids boarded a train at the Coliseum stop and robbed seven passengers, beating up two;
June 28: A group of four kids assaulted a passenger and made off with a cell phone at Dublin; and
June 30: A woman on a train with about a dozen teenagers had her phone snatched by one them before the group got off at the Coliseum stop. Thankfully, a good Samaritan was on hand to retrieve the phone.
So far, BART has refused to turn over surveillance video for any of these incidents.
Allen told us the agency issued an explanation for why it is being tight-lipped about the thefts.
"To release these videos would create a high level of racially insensitive commentary toward the district," she was told. "And in addition it would create a racial bias in the riders against minorities on the trains."
According to a memo distributed to BART Directors, the agency won't do a press release on the June 30 theft because it was a "petty crime" that would make BART look "crime ridden." Furthermore, it would "unfairly affect and characterize riders of color, leading to sweeping generalizations in media reports."
The memo was from BART Assistant General Manager Kerry Hamill.
Allen emailed Hamill, "I don't understand what role the color of one's skin plays in this issue [of whether to divulge information]. Can you explain?" Hamill responded, "If we were to regularly feed the news media video of crimes on our system that involve minority suspects, particularly when they are minors, we would certainly face questions as to why we were sensationalizing relatively minor crimes and perpetuating false stereotypes in the process." And added her opinion of the media: "My view is that the media's real interest in the videos of youth phone snatching incidents isn't the desire for transparency but rather the pursuit of ratings. They know that video of these events will drive clicks to their websites and viewers to their programs because people are motivated by fear."
Allen says scared passengers aren't being unreasonable — being on a BART train is a vulnerable position.
"This is BART, people are sort of trapped in this train for awhile and they have a right to see what could potentially happen."
She says all this raises questions, "What is the priority of BART? Is the safety of the passenger — of all passengers — is that a lesser priority than the race bias issue?"
According to BART spokesman Taylor Huckaby, state law protecting "juvenile police records" prevents them from showing the surveillance video, even though at least one of the people arrested for the April 22 attack is 19 years old. (He cited Cal. Gov't Code 827.9) And, even if the faces of juveniles were blurred, Huckaby says watching the videos would be pointless gawking.
Soccer Player Refuses to Wear Rainbow in Support of LGBT
The pressure on Christians to wave the rainbow flag may be new, but the issue is as old as the church.
Imagine for the moment that you're a world-class soccer star. You've worked for this all your life. Day after day and year after year you get up early, run, work on drills to hone your God-given talent. You've sacrificed many other things to rank among the best in the world. And now you may have to choose between your career or your faith. Why? Because you refuse to sell out to the crowd.
This is not make-believe. This is the plight of Jaelene Hinkle, a Christian athlete with the U.S. national soccer team. Jaelene, you see, has suddenly been thrust into a harsh spotlight—not for anything she's done on the pitch, as they say, but for her decision not to play in games in which her team must wear rainbow jerseys in support of "LGBT Pride" month in June.
Now, Jaelene is not trying to make waves but simply says she's bowing out for "personal reasons."
But her views on the matter are pretty clear. When the Supreme Court legalized what is called "same-sex marriage" in 2015, Jaelene stated on Instagram, "I believe with every fiber in my body that what was written 2,000 years ago in the Bible is undoubtedly true … . This world may change, but Christ and His Word NEVER will."
After calling on Christians to become more loving, she added, "The rainbow was a [covenant] made between God and all his creation that never again would the world be flooded as it was when He destroyed the world during Noah's time. It's a constant reminder that no matter how corrupt this world becomes, He will never leave us or forsake us."
Good, strong words! The rainbow, in case you haven't noticed, has been appropriated by the LGBT rights crowd.
The response to Jaelene's latest stand has been mostly vitriol. One of the few printable reactions in opposition was, "It's so nice when the trash takes itself out."
To this point however, Jaelene's decision hasn't cost her a spot on the national team. And one fair-minded gay sports blog said, "Hinkle has a right to her personal beliefs and if that means skipping a chance to play, that is also her right."
It's been clear for a while now that sport, like many other realms in our culture, is under siege from the forces of political correctness, sexual license, and marriage redefinition. A few years ago, the NFL threatened to take the Super Bowl away from the state of Arizona because of a religious freedom bill that the LGBT activists opposed—so Arizona's governor vetoed the bill. North Carolina was threatened by the NCAA with economic blackmail over its so-called "bathroom bill"—and changed the law. And now the Seattle WNBA team is donating a portion of ticket sales to Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider. I wonder what any Christians on the team think of this.
But it isn't just about sports. The pressure to conform is being ratcheted up everywhere—in business, politics, even religion. On a recent episode of "The Point," my colleague John Stonestreet bemoaned that the LGBT "rainbows" have even turned up everywhere—even on bags of French fries! And I can sympathize.
Yet all this isn't really a surprise, is it? Christians have always faced a choice between following God or the world, Christ or Caesar. In the early church, Christians such as Polycarp, who was bishop of the church in Smyrna, also had to choose. Polycarp, who was an old man, simply had to say "Caesar is lord" and offer a pinch of incense before Caesar's image—or face torture and death. He refused to give in, saying, "Eighty-six years I have served Christ, and He never did me any wrong. How can I blaspheme my King who saved me?"
The pressure to go along with the world on human sexuality is probably only going to intensify. For the sake of God's honor, the truth of His Word, and our neighbors' flourishing, we simply cannot wave the rainbow flag. Thank God, Jaelene Hinkle hasn't.
Political correctness is most pervasive in universities and colleges but I rarely report the incidents concerned here as I have a separate blog for educational matters.
American "liberals" often deny being Leftists and say that they are very different from the Communist rulers of other countries. The only real difference, however, is how much power they have. In America, their power is limited by democracy. To see what they WOULD be like with more power, look at where they ARE already very powerful: in America's educational system -- particularly in the universities and colleges. They show there the same respect for free-speech and political diversity that Stalin did: None. So look to the colleges to see what the whole country would be like if "liberals" had their way. It would be a dictatorship.

NEW YORK – The Justness Department plans to file a civil lawsuit against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV over excess diesel emissions as early as this week if no agreement is reached with the Italian-American automaker, two sources briefed on the episode said on Wednesday.
The Environmental Protection Agency in January accused FCA of illegally using undisclosed software to cede to excess diesel emissions in about 104,000 cars and SUVs, the result of a inquiry that stemmed from regulators' investigation of rival Volkswagen AG.
The EPA and California Air Resources Lodge have been in talks with FCA about the excess emissions and whether the agencies would approve the trade of 2017 FCA diesel models.
A federal judge in California has set a May 24 hearing on a series of lawsuits filed by owners of vehicles against Fiat Chrysler and the Morality Department is expected to file its action by then if no agreement is reached.
FCA said on Wednesday it believed that any legal remedy would be "counterproductive" to ongoing discussions with the EPA and California Air Resources Board.
The coterie added that "in the case of any litigation, FCA US will defend itself vigorously, markedly against any claims that the company deliberately installed defeat devices to bilk U.S. emissions tests."
The Justice Department took the same procedural step in pioneer 2016 against Volkswagen, nearly four months after the German associates admitted using software to emit excess diesel emissions in nearly 500,000 vehicles.
The Impartiality Department has had an ongoing criminal investigation into FCA's conduct since last year, Reuters reported in January. The probe has turned up internal emails written in Italian and other documents approximately engine development and emissions issues, sources briefed on the probe said.
U.S. regulators said FCA failed to squeak engine management software in 104,000 U.S. 2014-2016 Jeep Grand Cherokees and Ruse Ram 1500 trucks with 3.0-liter diesel engines.
The European Commission has launched right action against Italy for failing to respond to allegations of emission-test cheating by Fiat Chrysler in a way that could lead to the country being taken to court.
The EPA has said the maximum feasible fine against FCA could be $4.6 billion.
In February, FCA said it had received requests for facts and subpoenas from U.S. federal and state authorities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, for diesel issues.
In thorough, VW has agreed to spend up to $25 billion to address U.S. claims from owners, environmental regulators, states and dealers and offered to buyback polluting U.S. vehicles.

Having a good sort out in the food cupboard this morning, I found a jar of mincemeat leftover from Christmas.
I remembered having a recipe somewhere which uses it in a cake. It's an old recipe, originally cut out from a magazine, but I've tweaked it several times.
100g butter or margarine
75g dark brown sugar
150g wholemeal flour
1 tspn cinnamon
2 eggs
225g mincemeat
1 tbspn water
Preheat oven 170C/gas 3 and grease and base-line a 20cm square cake tin.
Beat the fat and sugar together till creamy, then beat in the eggs, one at a time. Fold in the flour and cinnamon then the mincemeat and water.
Spoon into the tin and bake for about 30 mins till golden.
It's got a nice light texture.
I don't know why it's called 'Belgian cake'!

Are we born with it? If we are, then how do we lose it?
If we aren't – then how do we find it?
The search for happiness seems to be an increasingly reoccuring phenomenon of the modern era. We've progressed so much as a species and developed so many new ways of finding and accomplishing our goals. And yet, most of us still cannot find happiness.
Sure we might find fragments of happiness. Happiness of being around friends, happiness of a relationship, happiness of birth… But overall happiness? The type of lasting happiness when you can say, yes I am generally happy? That seems to be reserved for a special few.
I'm sure the pursuit of happiness isn't purely a modern desire. But in a society lacking major warfare and poverty – 'survival' is handed to us on a silver platter and we are left to seek something more. We want to feel blissful and at peace. But the idea of happiness does not seem to coincide with modern day issues such as money, exploitation of others for ones own interest, and relationship stresses (family, friends, or partners).
Is pure happiness and deep satisfaction with ones life simply an unrealistic fantasy we chase after? Are we just looking for Utopia? As some may say, 'we cannot know what happiness feels like if we don't know what misery feels like.'… Thanks – this gives me so much confidence in life.
I am not saying my life is miserable. I am so lucky to be living the life I am living. But there is a deep dissatisfaction I feel. Yes, I am not poor. Yes, I do not need to worry about my safety every second of the day. Yes, I have a safe place to live. Yes, I have the opportunities.
But many people sit in the same boat as I do… When there's nothing 'wrong' with your life, but you're still unhappy. It's debilitating!
Although I don't want to live in some weird state of euphoria 24/7, I would love to wake up every morning with a sense of purpose and a sense of satisfaction in my life.
I have come to understand that sometimes, we don't even know what happiness is. We're so misled over what is 'happy' and what is 'unhappy'. How can we find happiness if we couldn't pick it out if it were right in front of us?
Happiness, to me, is not laughing all the time, smiling all the time, or being in a constant state of ecstatic bliss… No.
Happiness is the feeling of deep content. Waking up in the morning and the first thing that comes to my mind is not a job, not a worry, or wondering why you even woke up – but simply waking up and wanting to get up because the day has so much to offer. Happiness is finding your purpose and feeling as though your existence is not merely coincidental or insignificant.
Modern day pressures make my version of happiness seem impossible… It honestly makes me want to find some forrest and live out my life in the wilderness where the only thing I have to stress about is whether I'll survive another day. Maybe we've become too efficient and too safe. Nothing distracts us from our own misery – and nothing reminds us that our mere existence is a blessing.

Of all of the intentionally disingenuous distractions forever bandied about by the liberals, "for the kids" has to be their most sickening.
Again, the liberals use such distractions whenever they want to squeeze the middle class even further (and WHEN DON'T the liberals want to squeeze the middle class..) for another of their destructive "resource" drains. Once the liberals verbally assert that their motives are for the "underprivileged" or the "forgotten" or the "invisible", it seems that no one dares question this faux motive for fear of being "branded" as some kind of "hater" by the left.. (NO proof required, mere assertion is all that is necessary from the left..)
Once and for all, it's NOT "for the kids" because kids don't VOTE..
EVERY action by the liberal left involves the acquisition or retention of political power which then grants them the magical ability to remove money from those that have earned it, which then makes its way into the liberal redistribution machine. So that this ridiculous redistribution racket can be smoothly facilitated, the fog of sanctimony and deception must envelop the liberal purity of motive. Their "motives" may be "pure" but their ACTIONS are anything but..
The domestic liberal, not unlike their communist contemporaries, while at parties and gatherings of other like minded elitists, verbally eschew the "evils of money" or "corporate America".. Yet liberalism, like communism before it, needed capitalism to provide not only the kindling for the fire but the fuel for the fire itself.. Money.
The left's actions are guided by the religion of liberalism and liberalism CANNOT function WITHOUT the redistribution of the money earned and produced by others. This is ANOTHER reason why the liberals HATE "religion" (Christianity and Judaism ONLY) because it is the direct competition for the liberal's "religion" of liberalism. Liberals don't want to win you over with an intellectual argument, like everyone with low self-esteem, they want to "buy" your love and they want to buy it with money stolen from the productive.. (With the liberals so fond of fake "environmentalism", you'd think that they DO believe in the fairy tale that money grows on trees..)
The liberals act as though their morally motivated collectivist compass guides them in a vestal way through their travels. The liberals will tell you that what they do is ALWAYS the "right thing" to do, that they are barren of the evils that afflict those that merely disagree with them.. "It's for the kids" and other such rot..
The liberals love their publicly professed "guiding principles". "It's for the greater good".. So touchy feely, so warm, inviting.. Their PRIVATE "guiding principles" involves the acquisition of MONEY with which to reward those who vote for them and NOTHING ELSE. Remember, "it's for the kids"..
Before the liberals began their "War on America", it was everyone else who had to be bilingual because America was the most powerful nation on the planet. The liberals couldn't stand this and in order to "change" this, THEY had to infiltrate both politics and society with their poisonous progressive pabulum..
The liberals NEVER wanted to "tear the system down", they wanted to just REDIRECT where the MONEY went. MONEY is OK in liberal land as long as THEY ALONE are in charge of the direction in which it flows.
MONEY MATTERS PRIVATELY to the liberals, but what actually matters the most to the fellow travelers is who HAS the money. The liberals feel that with their perverted principles as their compass, they and their TRUE motives won't be questioned..
With no "impartial" media, who will question the liberals? The "impartial" media CONTROLS what is broadcast into the homes of the nation's intellectually lazy. The overwhelming message from this "impartial" media for over sixty years has been forwarding of the leftist mantra and the soft-boiled minds of the nation take the path of least resistance and they BELIEVE without questioning even though the tactile evidence of the evils of liberalism surround them..
So then, if it's "for the kids", why have the liberals stood by as BOTH scores and standards have dropped appreciably during their tenure as moral arbiters which actually DIRECTLY affects "the kids" in such a negative way? Liberalism continues to "produce" generations of the virtually unemployable as opposed to the genuinely employable as they have tinkered with what was once the MOST impressive public education system on the planet. This HAS NOT been an accident..
It's NOT "for the kids", it's for the Marxist minions of the useless NEA who in collusion with the liberal left have INTENTIONALLY destroyed the nation's public school system. Follow the money.
What is truly "for the kids" via the public schools in liberal land, is a first crass ticket into the lowest class where a lifetime of "benefits" awaits them. Once shackled to the lowest class, votes are exchanged for "benefits" derived from the theft of the productive by the liberal political "class".
The liberals know that in order for them to reproduce as a political group, the lowest class has to reproduce. Mere reproduction isn't enough to sustain the liberal political machine, they must at least chip away at the middle class and to turn them into members of the lowest class.
The liberals rob the middle class of their money so that they can rob the lowest class of its dignity.. For over sixty years, both groups seem to find this arrangement acceptable because if EITHER group didn't, they would go en mass to the voting booth and the liberal political machine would be out of work, so to speak.. When will the middle class learn that you can't negotiate with terrorists?
We MUST conclude that this self-evident appreciable DROP in both scores and standards within the public schools, which have been under the complete control of the liberal left for nearly sixty years, is ACCEPTABLE to the liberal left and it is also ACCEPTABLE to the "victims" of the liberal political machine..
Therefore we CAN conclude that they are doing it "for the kids", directing them into the abyss and abattoir of the left's lowest class which then leaves them no alternative but to crawl to the political machine that put them into the position that they are in..
Those sufficiently robbed of their dignity cannot see that there is another way and the liberals themselves intentionally stand in their way so that they will never see the light at the end of the tunnel..
This in collusion with the liberals destruction of societies norms and standards through "transvaluation" (old sins become virtues, old virtues become sins), their "bully pulpit" of the "impartial" media and their refamiliarization with their old friend now turned "new and improved", slavery, makes the left's political existence a complete mystery to those of us who are even mildly observant..
I know, its "for the kids" and that's all that we need to know..
Carry on..

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen Tukur Buratai has said that the Nigerian Army acted in accordance with military rules of engagements during the clash between the Shi'ite sect on December 12, 2015 in Zaria, Kaduna state.
Speaking on Tuesday when he responded to summons by the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) in Abuja, Buratai said the duty of the military was to ensure peace in the country and ensure that the laws of the country were properly maintained, adding that "no group will be allowed to become lawless".
The NHRC is investigating the clash between the military and members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) popularly known as Shi'ite sect in Zaria, where over 100 people were allegedly killed and the sect's leader, Ibrahim Zakzaky, his wife and many others arrested.
The sect's spiritual headquarters was also leveled to the ground by the Kaduna State Government in the aftermath of the clash.
While the army insisted that unruly youths of the Shi'ite sect blocked the road and attempted to assassinate the Lt.-Gen. Buratai, who was on his way to the emir's palace, the movement denies the allegation, claiming the attack was pre-meditated.
In his presentation on Tuesday, the army chief confirmed that he was involved in the clash and the acts of the soldiers were only "based on the rules of engagements" to ensure the peace and safety of the citizens.
He also warned against anybody ridiculing the Nigerian Army.
Although the Army was trained to kill the enemy, Buratai said the Army was an organised body and wouldn't go ahead to kill anybody or group without an appropriate reason or intention to sustain peace.
Buratai said the Army was already facing the challenge of trying to quell the Boko Haram insurgency in the North-Eastern part of the country and therefore doesn't expect any other group or persons to distract it or create more crisis.
He also said the Army has submitted its presentation to the investigation panel and hopes that the commission looks at it and administer justice at the end of the investigation process.
On his part, Executive Secretary of the commission, Prof Bem Angwe warned that the world was going to be too small for anyone who refuses to obey the summon of the commission because "we will engage the supports of the international communities to fish you out".
Angwe said the panel was inaugurated to investigate the clash that took place between the Nigerian Army and the Shi'ite group, stressing that all the parties involved will be given a fair hearing.

Buddy Hield gets the best of Ben Simmons in 77-75 win
No. 1 Ranked Oklahoma took on LSU on Saturday Evening, where the key matchup was between two top NBA prospects; Oklahoma's Buddy Hield and LSU's Ben Simmons. These two are considered first round talents, Hield going anywhere in the mid-to-late first round, and potentially in the lottery. While Simmons is the undoubtedly first overall pick, who some are even comparing to LeBron James. So you have to bet that there were several NBA scouts in attendance. And boy, Hield and Simmons did not disappoint as scouts got quite the show from the young fellas.
Simmons had a good game in a strong effort that came up just short, scoring 14 points, hitting 6 of his 7 shots, to go along with 9 rebounds and 5 assists. Simmons did struggle a bit, committing 5 turnovers but that is expected from the 19-year old point forward, as he possesses plus ball handling skills, but makes some mental mistakes and some bad passes that are sure to be cleaned up as he matures. Simmons also threw down a crowd pumping reverse baseline jam, after the sweet cross over:
Hield had a stellar game In this matchup, scoring 32 points, where he hit 11 of his 22 shots to go along with 7 rebounds. Hield took total control in the second half, knocking down 7 of his 8 shots from beyond the arc. Hield was very impressive, continuing his strong play, as he's averaging nearly 26 points and 6 rebounds for the Sooners as they collected their 18th win. But in the end, it was Hield's teammate, Isaiah Cousins who hit the game winning shot with 4 seconds to go. With the clutch basket, Oklahoma was able to escape LSU's upset bid after coming back from 14 down, and capturing the 77-75 victory.

- Description
The PICO Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System, by Smith and Nephew, is a small portable pump meant to extract wound fluid (exudate) when normal wound dressing and bandages are not adequate for optimum wound closure and healing. This wound care device is small enough to tote around in a pocket while it works on the wound discreetly tucked away. The PICO system is meant for a seven-day therapy session. During that time it maintains a negative pressure on the wound, which removes exudate from the wound bed through absorption and evaporation. This pump comes as with various size dressings along with the pump. This will include the tube used for extracting the exudate as well. The dressing that comes with the pump helps distribute the exudate evenly from the wound and helps prevent maceration (over moisturization) of the skin.
The PICO Negative Pressure Pump consists of an NPWT pump connected a gentle, highly-absorbent adhesive dressing. The pump is powered by two AA lithium batteries and it includes separately packed dressings complete with fixation strips. After use, the pump and batteries may be recycled. The dressing consists of 4 layers; Top film layer has a high moisture vapor transmission rate, super absorbent core locks away exudate, pioneering airlock layer facilitates the distribution of NPWT across the wound, and the silicone adhesive layer protects the wound environment.
For detailed use, Vitality Medical has included instructional videos created by Smith and Nephew located at the bottom of this description page.

Easy Refrigerator Bread and Butter Pickles
These easy refrigerator Bread and Butter Pickles taste exactly like the ones my mom used to can. Except, these are no muss, no fuss!!!
If you're new to canning or don't have all the proper equipment for the full fledged canning process, this simple recipe for homemade pickles is the perfect place to start!
Easy Refrigerator Bread and Butter Pickles
Each summer, we'd pile into our unairconditioned station wagon and take the eight-hour trek up to visit our North Dakota relatives. There were no seat belts or radio in that car, either. My dad was a frugal man! We'd kill time by picking out our favorite farm houses and playing license plate games as we headed north on I-35. Once our trip corresponded with a total eclipse of the sun, so we drove to the Canada border for an awesome show by Mother Nature.
More typically, we'd create our own adventures with our cousins. We climbed into the barn lofts, visited the dogs and horses, ate homemade caramels and tacos and helped make bread and butter pickles. My dad was more of a dill and garlic sort of guy, but, like my mom and her clan, I loved these sweet, sliced pickles flavored with mustard and celery seeds.
I'm certain my aunt, Angela, actually canned hers, but I took the easy route with these easy refrigerator bread and butter pickles. At that age, I was much more interested in eating them than paying attention to the process, but I'm delighted it was so easy to replicate the taste.
Tips for Making Bread and Butter Pickles
If you're lazy like me and don't want to go through the full routine of actually canning pickles, this refrigerator pickle recipe is perfect for you! The process will still take a few hours, but it's a very simple procedure. Happy preserving!
Buying and Prepping Your Cucumbers
- Use the freshest, unblemished cucumbers you can find. Pickling cucumbers are smaller than the variety you may use in your salads, so look for those.
The Pickling Process
- Wash your cucumbers without soap before brining to remove any dirt or contaminants.
- To make these pickles, slices of cucumber and onions were heavily salted and covered with ice. Over three hours, the ice began to melt and the vegetables were brined.
- A double rinse is needed to remove excess salt and then, the cukes and onions were added to a hot pickling mixture of vinegar, sugar and spices.
- The ratio of vinegar and sugar can vary among recipes as well as the spices used. This recipe hits the mark of perfection for me! Feel free to tweak it to your taste buds. For example, these sweet pickles are pretty sweet, you may want to decrease the sugar, but I find these perfect!
Storing Your Refrigerator Pickles
- These bread and butter pickles were packed in jars and cooled before screwing on the lids and refrigerating. Now isn't that simple?
- Since this method did not involve sterilization, they should be eaten within a couple weeks.
- If you grow pickle sized cucumbers in your garden, make an extra batch and share with your friends and neighbors!
What Are Bread and Butter Pickles?
These refrigerator pickles are nothing more than a subclass of sweet pickles. The origin of their name may come from the Great Depression, when they were possibly used as a sandwich filling when combined with bread and butter.
Note: I purchased my canning labels from Felix Doolittle. Watch for sales around the holidays.

Skinny Tip
I'm offering a series of Skinny Tips. How I keep slim is one of my most frequent inquiries. I'll feature tips on some of my upcoming blog posts.
Tip #35: This tip is courtesy of my friend, Christy, from Confessions of a Culinary Diva. Shop the perimeter of the store. That's where you'll find the meat, produce, and dairy. Avoid premade, packaged convenience foods in the center of the market, since they tend to be higher in calories and lower in nutrients.

Timber Creek Downs Colonial
The Timber Creek Wolves completed a three-game season sweep of the Colonial Grenadiers to move on in the 9A-6 district championship on Tuesday evening. Fueled by Nick Allen's complete game on the mound and his go-ahead RBI single in the sixth, the Wolves walked away with a 3-1 victory and earned a date with top-seeded Winter Park.
"It was a great night for Nick Allen," said Timber Creek manager Tim Beaman. "He pitched a complete game and had the winning hit. He really stepped up and delivered in a key situation."
Allen threw 60 of his 91 pitches for strikes, fanning four and allowing five hits and two runs.
The Wolves broke onto the scoreboard in the second when Zak Sousa singled to lead off the inning and then was batted in by Christopher Vervoordt.
The Grenadiers bounced right back in the next half-inning when Marion Campos scored on a single by Joseph Rivera. Campos broke the tie in the fifth by scoring his second run of the game, this time on a sacrifice fly by Kendall Williams.
Colonial starter Adam Reis fanned five and held Timber Creek to just the one run through the first five of his six innings but, with their season on the line, the Wolves figured him out and began the sixth with back-to-back base hits by Bret Neilan and Isa Mamudoski. Both runners advanced 90 feet on a passed ball, setting the stage for Allen, who lined a two-run single into left field to put the Wolves on top for good.

This is why we unanimously decided the Tapir should make it to the Zoo game as a special animal. Below you can see some concept art, just now I've finished the 3D model, unwrap and bones setup. I'll post you guys a screen shot of the final tapir when it's done.
We'll be returning to San Francisco next year to visit the GDC and when we can find the time we'll be meeting up again with our favorite tapir.

I have begun the ever so unhappy dieting again. I hate doing this so much, but I know that it is usually needed.
I have started going to the gym and now I am only drinking water and if I want coffee its something low in sugar and a super small amount. I hate this no caffeine no carbs things I am doing. Now I would like to clarify tho that the no carbs doesn't mean 100% no carbs. I mean no bad carbs. So no white breads, no rice, no pasta, and NO SODA!
I drink soda like it's my life, so when I don't drink it, my mouth craves the carbonation so I have been steering towards flavored carbonated water. It's gross as I hate carbonated water, but when it's the only way I am going to get carbonation I will drink it. Anyway, I love to eat pasta and bread too so this is going to be hard, but I know I can do it. I have faith in myself and in all that I have yet to accomplish. I know that I will be happy when I am done for the count.
I have to order some like meal prep containers this week so that on Sunday next weekend I can do meal prep for the week. I haven't figured out how I am going to do this but I will figure it out eventually. I know that my body will thank me later.
What are some tips and tricks you have for me when it comes to working out and eating healthy? Leave them in the comments below.
