US stocks climbed as a rally in oil bolstered energy shares and investors digested earnings from Facebook Inc. to Under Armour Inc. Emerging market equities advanced following the Federal Reserve's dovish commentary.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index closed higher for only the second time this week after fluctuating earlier during what was the busiest reporting day of the earning's season. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index jumped amid bets the Fed will refrain from raising interest rates too quickly. West Texas Intermediate capped for a three-day advance, helping boost currencies of commodity-exporting nations. The dollar extended its longest losing streak in four months against the euro after a report showed U.S. durable-goods orders slumped.
Speculation that central banks around the world will intervene to steady financial markets has helped shore up investor confidence over the past week. The Fed's first statement since its December rate hike noted officials were "closely monitoring" developments from China to Europe for any adverse impact on the economy. The U.S. earnings season is also in full swing and investors are monitoring results to make sure companies are strong enough to counter concerns ranging from China to oil and flagging global growth.
"Today, directionally, will be driven by oil prices," said John Canally, chief economic strategist at LPL Financial Corp. in Boston. "Oil is going to dictate where markets go, but there's still a lingering fear that there's some great unknown out there with regard to China. I think the Fed statement yesterday got everybody used to the fact that the Fed is probably in pause mode."
The S&P 500 added 0.6 percent as of 4 p.m. in New York. Energy and technology stocks led gains as Facebook surged 16 percent after reporting record sales. Health-care stocks were the only decliners among 10 major groups, as Abbott Laboratories and Celgene Corp. tumbled after posting disappointing results. EBay Inc. saw its biggest decline in more than seven years after reporting sales that fell short of analysts' estimates.
"Biotechs are running counter to the good day that oil is having and energy stocks are having," said Tim Ghriskey, who helps oversee $1.5 billion as managing director and chief investment officer at Solaris Asset Management in New York. "The health-care sector is just taking it on the chin today and I think that's a valuation issue."
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index fell 1.6 percent amid worse- than-estimated earnings from companies including Roche Holding AG and Hennes & Mauritz AB. Banks were among the worst performers, with Deutsche Bank AG sliding 5.4 percent to its lowest level in almost seven years, after posting its first annual loss since 2008.

Ever thought about reading as a component of a healthy lifestyle? Librarian Ellen Swansson considers the wellness benefits of being a regular reader.
'The benefits of reading books (especially fiction) have been known for centuries. It was the ancient Greeks who inscribed above the entrance to the library in Thebes that those going in were entering 'healing place for the soul.'
In our evidence-based world, more and more studies are being undertaken to quantify and understand the exact effects that reading has on our mental health. Claims are being made, for example, that reading significantly reduces our risk of depression or that it can reduce the risk of dementia in old age.
It has even been shown that when people read about someone going through a certain experience, they display stimulation in the same neurological regions as when they go through that experience themselves, thereby strengthening their ability to empathise with, and show compassion to others.
There has even been a huge growth in the practice of Bibliotherapy, whereby practitioners use books as 'medicine', prescribing literary texts to support people through specific difficulties in their lives.
At its most basic, the very act of losing yourself in a good book has many parallels with mindfulness practice; the ability to be in the present moment and be fully immersed in someone else's story, is a complete escape from our everyday pressures and demands.
It has been shown that reading puts our brains into a trance-like state in a similar way to meditation, and that this in turn can lead to health benefits such as better sleep, lower stress levels and higher self-esteem.
The best thing of all is that the portable nature of books means that you can jump into this state any time you need to, such as when commuting, waiting for an appointment, or tucked up in bed.'
Boroondara has five libraries where staff can lose themselves in a good book anytime. Joining the library is easy, and can be done online or in person. Our friendly staff are always available to help with reading' recommendations.

Hiring a Qualified Disability Lawyer in Arizona
Claimants with disability representation in Arizona tend to be approved in higher percentages, need fewer appeals, and have more favorable "dates of onset" (the date the disability is proven to have begun) which can result in higher back pay benefits.
Representation may be through a disability lawyer or a specialized non-attorney disability representative. Many non-attorney representatives are actually former Social Security Administration Claims Specialists and Disability Examiners.
A qualified representative will be knowledgable with regard to Social Security administrative law and procedures, particularly concerning how claims are approved through the Social Security listings and the medical vocational grid rules. A qualified and competent representative or lawyer will also be skilled in obtaining the most relevant case evidence, analyzing it correctly, and incorporating it as part of a winning strategy for an SSD or SSI claim.
To learn about fees for representation, see: "How do disability lawyers get paid?"
Additional information
If you are considering filing for social security disability (SSD) or SSI benefits in Arizona, your chances of winning benefits are a little less than 50/50. In Arizona, 53.4% of all initial disability claims, i.e. disability applications, are turned down by the Arizona disability determination services (DDS).
If you appeal the denial by filing a request for reconsideration with DDS, your chances of winning are 30.6%, which means that about two-thirds of all appeals are denied. If these figures seem discouraging, you might be surprised to learn that Arizona SSD and SSI approval rates are actually well above the national average.
Simply put, Arizona residents are more likely to win disability benefits than applicants in other states; however, despite this relatively favorable climate, it is important to keep in mind that, at the first two levels of the disability determination process, the odds of winning are against you.
Many individuals filing for SSD or supplemental security income (SSI) benefits in Arizona will find that they are able to comply with the most basic requests for information and filing deadlines of the social security administration (SSA) and the Arizona Disability Determination Services without the need for counsel.
Though it should be noted that some cases are lost because DDS was not notified of specific medical record documentation and a significant percentage of claimants who are without representation fail to file an appeal on a timely basis.
Additionally, there are instances in which early representation can allow a claim to be won without the need for appeal, which can save many months in case processing time. Individuals who have chronic mobility or pain symptoms, memory lapses, or depression or anxiety, will also often benefit from obtaining representation at the start of the claim process.
The majority of individuals filing a claim in Arizona will be denied by DDS at both the initial claim and reconsideration appeal levels, and will need help making their case for disability.
Those who are denied at the application level should probably consider finding representation simply because the odds of being denied on the first appeal, the reconsideration, are over 80 percent. Those who have been denied twice by DDS (at the application and reconsideration levels) should certainly consult with a qualified disability attorney or qualified non-attorney disability representative.
It is never recommended that a claimant should go to a disability hearing unrepresented even if they have proceeded through the first appeal level, the request for reconsideration, unrepresented. It is often the case that judges in Arizona will even advise claimants who show up unrepresented at hearings to have their hearings rescheduled so as to allow the claimant the opportunity to consult with a representative before the hearing is conducted.
Arizona disability applicants with representation may be as much as 50 percent more likely to win benefits from an administrative law judge than those who represent themselves, perhaps, in part, because judges are more receptive to arguments presented by lawyers. However, this is more likely because a lawyer or disability representative who specializes in SSD and SSI claims in Arizona will be able to put together a better argument that is supported by a knowledge of the regulations, rulings, and grid rules, and, thus, a stronger case.
Unrepresented claimants, by contrast, generally are unaware of what is required to properly prepare a case prior to hearing, or even what types of evidence to focus on, let alone the importance of obtaining a medical source statement from a claimant's treating physician.

Dude, where's my jet?
Posted by mesablue on December 4, 2007
Heh, The UN decides to hold a global warming conference in Bali, of all places, and has to worry about whether or not there will be enough room to park all of their private jets.
At NewsBusters:
Not Enough Parking for Private Jets Going to UN Climate Conference
The United Nations Climate Change Conference is being held at what NewsBusters reported as "a truly beautiful tropical island paradise," the management of the nearby airport has issued a warning to attendees that they are going to have to park their private jets somewhere else.
I kid you not.
Tempo Interaktif reports that Angkasa Pura – the management of Bali's Ngurah Rai International Airport are concerned that the large number of additional private charter flights expected in Bali during the UN Conference on Climate Change (UNFCCC) December 3-15, 2007, will exceed the carrying capacity of apron areas. To meet the added demand for aircraft storage officials are allocating "parking space" at other airports in Indonesia.
Someone is going to have to plant a lot of trees or hit up their buddy Al Gore for a few million carbon credits to offset the pollution and wasted fuel that these jets will cause.
I mean, Bali is right on the way to most places, right?
Here's an idea, why not have the UN global warming conference at — the UN?
Nah, it's too cold in New York right now.
Update: Found through a commenter at Ace of Spades HQ
A blast of hot air at Bali's climate conference
It's not the waste that rankles so much as the hypocrisy. Some 15,000 politicians, officials, quangocrats and assorted busybodies are descending on Bali for a jamboree that will produce more than 100,000 tons of CO2 emissions. The purpose of their trip? To discuss how to reduce CO2 emissions.
We wonder whether there would be so many observers and hangers-on if the venue were, say, Düsseldorf. For many of those attending have no direct involvement in the talks.
For example, 19 MEPs, accompanied by advisers and staff, are in Bali, staying at a luxurious spa hotel. Not only will their fares, meals and accommodation be paid for by the rest of us, but they will also claim a further £95 per day.
Our purpose is not just to mock the attendees. No, we have a deeper objection.
The Bali summit represents much of what is wrong with the green movement, in that it elevates intentions over results. The supposedly ethical aims of the conference are presumed to render irrelevant the pollution engendered by its delegates.
Euro-MPs, and politicians generally, often behave this way. When Indonesia was devastated by the 2004 tsunami, MEPs cheerfully voted millions of their constituents' euros in aid.
But when it was suggested that they might contribute a single day's attendance allowance – around £190 – to the relief effort, they were horrified.

I think 100,000 tons is way low. That only includes the travel. That particular group of people will produce enough hot air at the coference to mel the record amount of Antarctic ice.

Damnit you guys, I have told you a million times! The rules to "stop global warming" only apply to us common folk,, not them!! Now stop picking on them and let them get down to the business of saving us from ourselves, G-D knows we are to ignorant to do it!

"The restructuring is significant in following the principle of the Party exercising leadership over media," Huang said.
Huang also said the China Media Group should follow the right political direction and guide the public with right values.

Surviving the switch to cable sales
Cable network sales reps find little more deliciously amusing than watching an MSO programming buyer switch sides. As the point person cutting deals with networks, an MSO programming executive spends a lot of time barring the cupboard doors from networks often reduced to begging for shelf space for some startup.
So some relish the ascendance of Turner Broadcasting Systems'Andrew Heller, who now is in the position of doing the begging. After moving from Time Warner Cable to its sister cable network division in 1998, Heller is now president of domestic distribution for all of TBS'11 U.S. cable networks, including the powerful CNN and TNT. That means he's the guy seeking carriage of weaker services like CNNfn and CNN/SI and living with the legacy of the giant rate hike that TBS Superstation had pushed through as he arrived.
For the previous eight years, Heller was assistant general counsel for Time Warner Cable, charged in large part with hammering out contracts with the myriad cable networks supplying programming to the MSO.
Bad karma can bite back. "I regret every network's phone call I didn't return in my past life," says one former MSO executive who crossed over to programming.
Heller, however, contends that the switch from buyer to seller hasn't been as awkward as ex-system executives sometimes find. "I have found the transition fairly simple. Sitting on the other side of the table for fairly long, I watched the guys who were effective at convincing us to buy the product when perhaps we didn't want to."
Just as unusual is the fact that the top salesman for the largest U.S. cable programmer has no background in sales at all. Heller is a lawyer, one who has never even been responsible for landing clients at the firms he worked for. Much of his experience is in bankruptcy.
The Brooklyn native spent part of his five years as an associate at two Manhattan law firms in bankruptcy cases, usually helping creditors collect as much as they could from failed companies. In 1985, he joined a friend at Home Box Office as an associate general counsel in charge of litigation.
It was there-not squeezing networks seeking carriage-that he earned the nickname "Chainsaw" Heller as he squeezed money from non-paying cable operators and other networks. For example, he had to chase disgraced Rev. Jim Bakker when his PTL TV evangelist operation collapsed, because HBO had leased him a transponder. He also had to sift through the financial problems of Hemdale Film Corp., in which the rights to hit movies Hoosiers and Platoon were tied up. "It was a lot of fun, I really enjoyed it," Heller says.
Shortly before Time Inc. became Time Warner, Heller was tapped by Time's cable division American Television & Communications, which was relocating from Denver to New York. He moved over as associate general counsel for litigation, assured that he wouldn't do programming, which was generally considered relatively dull contract work.
Shortly after he got there, however, Heller had lunch with the cable unit's head of programming, Fred Dressler. They hit it off so well that Heller found himself working out network deals for the next eight years.
That led TBS, taken over by Time Warner in 1996, to tap him for the somewhat lawyerish job of executive vice president of technology and business affairs. Within a year, he had been promoted to chief operating officer, and, last October, when Distribution President Bill Grumbles decided to retire, Heller took over most of his duties.
One of Heller's tasks is figuring out a strategy for distributing the networks over the Internet "without cannibalizing our existing business," perhaps by making interview outtakes available for video streaming.
But his chief task is pushing Turner's networks, from startup cartoon channel Boomerang to filling in the massive gaps of the newer CNN splinters, and further developing networks whose inexpensive economics will allow them to survive on digital cable tiers.
Heller's not sweating the sales job. "A lot of people will tell you that, when I was in cable, I tried harder to find a creative way out. That's partly because, as a bankruptcy lawyer, that's what you did to keep all sides happy."

Sometimes, the simple things in LIFE are the most beautiful @___@ ! Take this wallie. Granted, you could have created a more exotic wallie with scantly clad babes or some "Gundam Alpha Numeric" mech unit kicking another mech unit' s a***.
I love the colours you have used in your wallie. The colours have a warm, loving feel such as the Sun is beginning to rise. I like to think this is the start of a great day. Having these two lovely onna (Honto ne !) locked in having fun and just being themselves. Their happiness and innocence is one heck of a way to appreciate being alive !
Love the yellow (soft) grass w/ the red and pink/ orange leaves alot. I like to think it's symbolizes Unconditional Love and Playfulness. The sky, very kewl how it fades from a warm colour to a dark blue colour.
It's really nice to see images of anime characters being happy w/ one another, not images of people at war. I see enough on the T.V. / newspaper.
Arigatoo Gozaimasu Sasaki san for sharing ! Your wallie brought a Smile to my tired face and eased the pain in my soul. @___@ !
I hope to see more of your artwerk ^__^

Zanzibar - Exotic Beauty and History
Zanzibar Sunset and Dhow
Zanzibar is a large tropical island - located just 6 degrees south of the equator - in the Indian Ocean. The main island of Unguja (aka Zanzibar) is some 20 miles wide and 60 miles long.
Even the name of Zanzibar is exotic. Zanzibar has been linked to Spices and Pirates as well as to the Slave Trade for centuries.
Zanzibar has wide sandy beaches lined with palm trees and dhows of ancient design still sail on the waters. Dhows have been in use for many many centuries on the Indian ocean.

Princess Salme Said Ruete
The very first book I ever read about Zanzibar was called - Memoirs of an Arabian Princess of Oman and Zanzibar - the Extraordinary Life of a Muslim Princess between East and West The authors name was Emily Said Ruete.
This is Princess Salme at age 14. She wrote the book mentioned above. This photo would have been taken in 1858 since Salme was born in 1844 and died in 1924. When Salme grew up, she became pregnant by a neighbour - a German engineer named Rudolph Heinrich Ruete. They both left Zanzibar in 1866, Salme was baptised as a christian and took the name of Emily. As Emily Ruete, she wrote a book of her life in Zanzibar (as mentioned above) - Memoirs of an Arabian Princess from Zanzibar - first published in Germany in 1886.
Salme's father (Sultan Said of Zanzibar and Oman) died in 1856 when she was 8 years old. The next 4 Sultans of Zanzibar were her older brothers. In her book Salme mentioned several of her sisters but only 2 of her brothers - both of whom were Sultans of Zanzibar.
Another of Salme's older brothers (Turki) became Sultan of Oman and the present Sultans of Oman are direct descendants from his branch of the family.
Salme tried not to get caught up in the battle between her brothers over who would become the next Sultan. I think this is probably why she sought out the company of her German neighbour - the engineer Heinrich Ruete.
"Sayyida Salme's writings encompass her experiences and observations of life in Zanzibar, Syria and Germany; her struggles as a minor pawn in diplomatic battles over world trade and the Scramble for Africa; and her life as a German citizen during the Franco-Prussian War and the First World War. " Festival of the Dhow Countries

Zanzibar Islands
Zanzibar is an autonomous region of Tanzania. It consists of 2 large islands in the Indian Ocean just off the coast of Tanzania, These islands are called Zanzibar (Unguja) and Pemba. There are also a number of smaller islets as well. The capital of this autonomous region is Zanzibar Town. Within Zanzibar Town is the ancient Stone Town - now under UNESCO protection.
There is a third island as well - called Mafia island - but it is governed from the mainland (Dar es Salaam) and it mostly attracts tourists who wish to go swimming, scuba diving and fishing.

Stonetown, Zanzibar
This is Stonetown in Zanzibar town. Stonetown was the original city that was built out of stone, back in the days of pirates and slaves.
It is now being preserved and has been under UNESCO protection since the year 2000.

StoneTown, Zanzibar
There are some very interesting places to visit in StoneTown.
Such as Dr Livingstone's House and the House of Wonders.
The House of Wonders is so called because it was built in 1883 for the Sultan and it was the first building in Zanzibar to be wired up for electricity and also the first building to have an elevator installed. The House of Wonders is now used as a Museum of Stonetown and of the Swahili culture and coastline.
Dr Livingston's house in Zanzibar was built in 1860 and was used by David Livingston as a base for the preparations of his final exploration trip in 1866. It is now occupied by the Zanzibar Tourist Corporation.

Prison Island, Zanzibar
This is Changuu Island, just off the coast of StoneTown. It used to be called Prison Island because back in the olden days, the slaves were imprisoned here and also quarantined here whenever necessary.
Now it is a refuge for Giant Sea Tortoises. The island is a short boat ride from StoneTtown, where you can go scuba diving and snorkeling.

Chumbe Island, Zanzibar
Chumbe Island is a Reserve and as such, no one actually lives there.
If you like climbing, there are 131 steps to the top of the Chumbe Lighthouse - built by the Sultan of Zanzibar in 1904 (probably one of Salme's Brothers),
You can also
go diving and snorkeling
walk through the rainforest
relax on the beach

Faroukh Balsara
Not many people are aware that the great singer of the rock group Queen - was born and raised in Zanzibar.
His real name was Faroukh Balsara. But he was much better known as Freddie Mercury.
Faroukh's family were of Persian (Iranian) ancestry and their religion was originally Zoroastrianism
The Untold Story of Freddie Mercury
A 5 part documentary about Farroukh Bulsara - showing some scenes of Zanzibar - before he became Freddie Mercury.
Have you ever been to Zanzibar?
Certainly enjoyed the information here. No, I have not been to Africa at all and was surprised to learn that Livingstone has been to this part. I thought he went to the Congo. It just goes to show we can learn new things everyday and I really appreciate this documentary and others like it.
I haven't been to Zanzibar before. Heard about it and but never really know much about the place. This is a great lens to help me learn a bit more.
I was fortunate to have visited Zanzibar many years ago. Our guide took us through windy streets and orchards and fragrant delights that I still remember. Quite a place.
Well, I'll have to add this to my "Africa visits for the future" list. Never imagined that Freddy Mercury was from Zanzibar.
A beautiful exotic place. Stunning photos and interesting story about the princess.
A lovely story of Zanzibar, if I have the time I would certainly visit this exotic place.
looks nice. I wish to travel the world, this would be one of my stops
Although I heard a word Zanzibar before, I never knew that place really existed. Nice info!
Can't say I have, though it looks like a lovely place!
I didn't know much about Zanzibar, or that Freddy Mercury was from there. I enjoyed reading this lens. thank you.
This just goes to show you that when you the take time to view new lenses you will always learn something different and interesting. Like "whashappenen" Zanzibar!! Thank you for the contribution.

Current News
by Kathye Cipes
I have always made a financial pledge. For me, it's part of being a member…part of the cycle of the church year. It has been easy.
But, unfortunately, another reason it was so easy for me was that I wasn't giving enough. Not even close. I was still giving, over 15 years later, the same amount I had pledged when I joined AHCC. I had a much lower salary then … was sending kids to summer camp, saving for college and all the things that come with parenthood.
Raising kids is behind me now. My husband has been able to launch his own business and my career has been blessedly steady. But my pledge had stayed the same, and was becoming embarrassingly close to what I spend on coffee every week.
I'd like to tell you that I came to the realization on my own. But, the real reason is because I was serving on the Administration and Finance Committee. I was witnessing at each meeting, the tough choices the church leadership has to make: trading off providing benefits for our staff versus repairing our 150 year old building; trying to plan for the future, without knowing how to meet current obligations. Without pledges, our leadership plays a guessing game of what they will be able to do in the upcoming year.
So, I took a close look at what I was giving, and a few years ago, I doubled my pledge.
Granted, I have had to change a few things to make my pledge to AHCC a higher priority in my finances. And I think that's a good thing.
I do feel more connected to AHCC, and feel that I my financial contributions, which include a gift to the church in my will, are part of my legacy. I am, through my pledge, able to take personal pride in all the wonderful things we do at AHCC. It also has given me a much greater feeling that I am doing what I can do, and should do, to honor God and to answer God's call as part of this wonderful congregation.
This year, I'm on the Stewardship Committee and our theme for 2018 is Pledge to Come. Pledge to Love. Pledge to Share.
I hope you will.

text: The data element, Primary Type of Disability, provides an indication of the number of children that have certain types of developmental delays. The options in this data element are not mutually exclusive; a child can have more than one type of delay. Any option that is indicated "Yes" means a child was identified as having that delay during a developmental evaluation. For each field, calculate the total number of children with that type of delay by totaling the number of "Yes" responses. The developmental delay with the most "Yes" responses is the most commonly reported developmental delay among children in the state. To calculate the percentage, divide each field by the total number of children in the state that are enrolled in early care and education programs.

September is quickly approaching, which can only mean one thing — summer is over. And with summer ending, it's the perfect time to get in all those last-minute warm weather activities you'll miss, like heading to your favorite amusement park.
If you really need a push, look no further than these sad photos of amusement parks during their off-season. They'll have you grabbing your friends and your car keys in no time — no one wants to admit that winter is right around the corner.
Keep scrolling to check out these 10 depressing photos of amusement parks during the winter.
Even though sometimes, amusement parks don't always live up to expectations.
There are plenty of other winter activities that are much more fun.
Amusement parks aren't immune to seasonal storms either — Hurricane Sandy completely covered the Coney Island boardwalk and amusement park in sand and water.
One visitor to the park two weeks after Hurricane Sandy observed that this was "the only time I had experienced quiet on the boardwalk. The typical racket of carnival games, the roar of amusement park rides, the bellows of hawkers and prattle of pedestrians had vanished, replaced with a stillness so seemingly absolute that I don't even recall hearing the lapping of the tide."
With the end of summer approaching rapidly, you might want to get to your favorite amusement park before it's too late, and it looks like this.

El atrevido compañerismo de Dios
Lucas 18:31ª: "Jesús, tomando aparte a los Doce."
1 Corintios 1:26-31: "Basta, hermanos, con que se fijen en cómo se ha realizado su propia elección: no abundan entre ustedes los que el mundo considera sabios, poderosos o aristócratas. 27 Al contrario, Dios ha escogido lo que el mundo tiene por necio, para poner en ridículo a los que se creen sabios; ha escogido lo que el mundo tiene por débil, para poner en ridículo a los que se creen fuertes; 28 ha escogido lo sin importancia según el mundo, lo despreciable, lo que nada cuenta, para anular a quienes piensan que son algo. 29 De este modo, ningún mortal podrá alardear de algo ante Dios 30 que a ustedes los ha injertado en Cristo Jesús, convertido para nosotros en sabiduría divina, en fuerza salvadora, santificadora y liberadora. 31 Así que, como dice la Escritura, si de algo hay que presumir, que sea de lo que ha hecho el Señor."
The Bold Fellowship of God
"And taking the twelve, he said to them,. . .'" (Luke 18:31a)
How bold of God to put His trust in us! You say, "How unwise He was to choose me because there is nothing good in me and I am worthless!" That is exactly the reason why He chose you! God will not choose you if you think you are valuable to Him because you have your own purpose to serve. If you let Him rid you of your self-sufficiency, He will choose you to accompany Him to Jerusalem and this fulfills His purpose that He will not discuss with you.
We tend to think that someone is a good Christian because they have a natural talent. It doesn't have to do with our abilities, but with our poverty--not what we bring with us, but what God puts in us. It isn't a question of natural virtue, strength of character, knowledge or experience. None of that is valuable. The only thing that matters is that we are drawn to His overwhelming purpose and we become His friends.
"'For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are,so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, so that, as it is written, "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord."'" (1 Corinthians 1:26-31)
Authenticity has to do with being consistent in with you say and do, the value of what you proclaim and the priorities that you exhibit. Lack of authenticity shows that we claim to be one thing and, in reality, are another.
Years ago, I read a story about a small town that had a huge oak tree in the middle of Central Park. The townspeople were very proud of that tree. It had been there many years, even before some of them were born and they thought that it would be there many more years after they had passed on. One day a great gale wind came and snapped the tree trunk in half. It was discovered that the tree was infected. The exterior was a symbol of strength, but the interior was weak and vulnerable. The tree had deceived its fans.
This story still haunts me and it really scares me when I think about the church. I think the biggest challenge facing the church for the next two decades is the disease that is eroding their power and integrity. This is not authentic Christianity.
There are few external problems that hinder the ministry of the contemporary church. We have money, buildings and first-class educational institutions to prepare our leaders. We have abundant resources like books, tapes, conferences, training centers, diverse ministries and political freedom. The non-authentic Christian life overrides all these external benefits. God's fellowship is for people who recognize their poverty. As Christians, we are not committed to our own cause. We are committed to the cause of Christ, which will never be ours.
We do not know the purpose of God that compels us, but we must maintain our relationship with Him, come what may. We must never allow anything to harm that relationship with Christ. If it does, we must take time to rectify it. The most important aspect of Christianity is not the work we do, but the relationship that we maintain and the atmosphere that is produced by that relationship.
God requires that we listen. This is all that God requires, but this is the only thing that is continually attacked.

The absolute ultimate in style, luxury and location.
It doesn't get any better than this!
Stepping inside this one of a kind luxury, custom designed apartment suite the first thing you will notice is the exceptional attention to detail that has gone into every facet of the renovation and interior design. No expense has been spared to bring you the most unique, comfortable and luxurious experience you can find in Medellin.
Starting with the incredible living area and open plan kitchen the first impression is that you have walked into your dream home, with every conceivable design element on display and every possible kitchen utensil a necessity for dining or entertaining is at your fingertips.
If you are having some friends over for drinks, or just staying in and coking yourself a meal, you will find the amenities second to none.
Next, find yourself in the play room, featuring one of the biggest and most powerful Jacuzzis on the market, big enough to fit 8 people comfortably and with enough jets to fly a plane. Situated in the same room as your wet bar and some comfortable lounge furniture it's perfect for impressing your guests or just getting in some vacation rest and relaxation.
One of the biggest requests we have had over the years from our guests has been for bigger bathrooms, and in this apartment we made sure to come good on that promise with a giant master bathroom with double shower on the mezzanine floor.
Our king sized beds aren't bad either, with custom made bases for extra strength, superior quality pillow-top mattresses and the finest quality linen. You're in for a real thrill whether you getting a good night's sleep or getting romantic with your significant other.
Everything we have learned about hosting guests in our eight years of business providing the ultimate experience to visitors to Medellin has been accumulated, redefined, improved and delivered into this building.
But we haven't forgotten the basics. You'll still get the fastest Internet available at 15 megabytes download speed through fiber optic cables and digital safes in every room for your valuables.
Guests have full access to all the facilities of the apartment and the building.
All of our guests also have exclusive access to our one-stop-shop travel and business center for co-working, trip planning, and social networking.
We are available 24/7 for any inquiries or questions you might have and the apartment contains a comprehensive guidebook with information of what to do and where to go in Medellin.
The apartment can be cleaned on request for an additional cost.
As we are a business, we charge and pay the local 19% sales tax here in Colombia. If you want to avoid paying the tax you will need to present your passport when you arrive so that we can make a copy of the ID page and the entry stamp. This proves you are a tourist, and exempt from the tax. Your concierge will ask to take a photo of these pages at check-in.
Check in can be scheduled between 4 pm and 8 pm with no extra charge. After 8 pm and anytime on Sundays and Colombian official holidays, there is a check in fee of 15 USD.
And that's not all. Right out of the front door you'll be bewildered with choices on which boutique deli to buy your morning breakfast or which trendy coffee shop to get your daily fix. The Provenza area is lined with restaurants, bars, cafes and shopping but the center of it all, the best location of all, right in front of the Éxito convenience store is your vacation rental. There is literally no better location in the city.
And, if you think there has to be a catch, there isn't. The Bosques de Provenza bulding is located on one of the quietest streets in the area with a bubbling brook and bamboo forest right across the road.
So, there's really nothing left to stop you from experiencing the best holiday rental experience you will ever find in Medellin. Let's create some life long memories starting today, book now!
Poblado is the tourist center of Medellin with all the best nightlife, shopping and facilities for the visitor. Some of the most popular areas include Parque Lleras, and the Zona Rosa along with the main avenue that has some of the biggest and best shopping centers including San Fernando Plaza, Oviedo Mall and Santa Fe.
The apartment is walking distance to almost everything you'll want to do while you're here and for the other locations, taxi's are easy to call and are metered so you don't have to worry about overpaying. The metro station is a 20 minute walk down the hill.

A Night Filled With Slight Signs Of Progress
As I said back when both Jason Priestly and Luke Perry were hosts, I was never a 90210 fan and only know the show through parodies and pop culture references. I also pointed out that even though I never followed the show I found most of the cast to be pretty interesting because they all seemed to be pretty funny in their efforts to differentiate themselves from the 90210 world. Because of this, I was intrigued to see Shannen Doherty as the host to see how funny she was.
Unfortunately, this didn't turn out to be all that funny of an episode but with that said the reason it felt dry was for very fortunate reasons. First off, a majority of the jokes from the night where about Shannen Doherty's reputation of being a bitch, only now watching the show through modern eyes all of the examples that were given made her seem more assertive than bitchy which invalidated most of the jokes.
Where at the time, I could see her being more of an anti-hero throughout the episode where she owned her bitchy way and wore it with a sense of pride in a way that made people hate her even more. Watching the show now, it felt more like everyone else was crazy and couldn't handle the presence of a strong lady which especially shows in the Salem Bitch Trials sketch where she was actually bitchy but for valid reasons since the rest of the town was a mess.
Another example of progress happened later on in the night when Tim Meadows and Mike Myers played two gay men running the hair, make-up, and costume department. I'm guessing that back in the day them being gay in general was the only point to the joke since their gay impersonations were so grounded in reality that through modern eyes, it didn't seem like a joke at all.
The final sign of progress came when Cyprus Hill took to the stage and DJ Muggs started the song by smoking a joint on the air. I remember this being a super huge deal at the time but now I watch Doug Benson and guest smoke weed every week live on the YouTube and nobody seems to care.
Other than following the news through satire over the past forty-three-years, my other surprisingly favorite aspect of this challenge is seeing how the cultural sensibilities through reactions to offensive bits. Like how early in the '70s people would laugh and cheer for pedophile joke which is a pretty disturbing thing to hear especially when the scenarios seem a bit too real. Nowadays people might still find these jokes to be funny but the reaction is more moans and groans to acknowledge disturbing the situation is even when it leads to a giggle as a reaction to the shock value.
So, this might not have been the funniest episode that I've ever seen but I'd still say that it was worth the watch to see that we're actually still making progress in certain aspects of our societal life. With that said, it's now time to move on and share what I saw as I give you…
The Wicker Breakdown:
This week's show started with Phil Hartman announcing a sketch where Opera Man Plays The Scratch Lottery while singing a tune about the process only to end up one matching item off from winning a million dollars. Of course, this being the opening sketch it eventually built to the announcement of, "Live from New York…"
Shannen Doherty then officially opened the show with a monolog about how she just got married and went on to share a prerecorded sketch of "home video footage" of her wedding reception where she got into physical altercations with all of her guests as if she were actually the crazy bitch that she portrayed on 90210.
This was followed by the classic Crystal Clear Pepsi parody ad that pushed a clear gravy called Crystal Gravy.
We then got a parody of The Real World that made fun of the opening warning that the show was going to be real to the point where it might be hard to stomach. They then went on to introduce the cast highlighting how each housemate was paired up with their polar opposite to create conflict that is by design and nowhere close to the reality that the opening warning promised.
The Denise Show then made its debut where Adam Sandler hosted a cable access show devoted to Shannen Doherty, AKA Denise, who broke up with him five weeks ago and he desperate to win her back and thinks this show will win her over.
Cypress Hill then took to the stage to perform Insane In The Brain.
Once again, Kevin Nealon gave us the news. This week, Rob Schneider dropped in for a new segment called Wacky Moments In Sports that aren't actually wacky at all even though Schneider made it seem so, thanks to his over the top commentary. Tim Meadow also introduced his Ike Turner impersonation to talk about the new Clinton Health Care Plan while being abusive to our top news anchor which led to the introduction the, "I'm sorry Kevin Nealon," routine that I've always been a huge fan of.
Is It Date Rape? was a game show sketch with Phil Hartman as host to quiz college students as to what is and isn't considered date rape after sharing questionable scenarios. The contestants involved are Chris Farley and Shannen Doherty with Farley feeling that every example is safe and Doherty thinking that everything is date rape even when there's no sex involved and the scenario in genuinely innocent.
Chris Farley then introduced The Relapse Guy for a family intervention. At first, it seems like he's serious about his sobriety only to fall off the wagon right away and went back to his drinking ways only to end up in another intervention. Knowing the future of Farley this sketch was way more sad that it was funny.
Noah And Frans took place in Shannen Doherty's dressing room with Mike Myer and Tim Meadow playing the hair, make-up, and costume team who got her ready for the next sketch. I don't know if the humor was supposed to come from these two characters being gay but now that it's an acceptable lifestyle there didn't seem to be any real jokes. In fact, the two characters are actually portrayed in such a non-offensive way that through modern eye there was nothing interesting about this sketch at all which is a nice sign that we're making progress.
Salem Bitch Trials was, of course, a parody of the Salem Witch Trails only Shannen Doherty was on trial for being a bitch in a room full of angry men and women who couldn't stand a strong female since all of her actions were valid efforts of her trying to speak her mind.
Cypress Hill then returned to the stage to perform I Ain't Goin' Out Like That which they started by smoking a joint on live TV.
A Message From Michael Eisner was a sketch where the CEO of Disney tried to reassure foreign guest that Disney World is still safe despite a rise in violent crimes against foreign travelers that took place in Miami around that time.
Finally, Shannen Doherty closed the show by thanking the audience and saying her goodnights.
Even though this wasn't the funniest of episodes, it was still good but not great experience thanks to these three of my favorite moments of the night. First, I loved Tim Meadows as Ike Turner even though it's a horrible play on domestic violence but I still reference, "I'm sorry Kevin Nealon," regularly to this day. Next, I really liked the fake ad for Crystal Gravy because I'm at just the right age the Crystal Pepsi was a big deal to me at the time so this was a funny reminder. Finally, I was a fan of Shannen Doherty's "Wedding Video" from the monolog because it was fun to see her take on what the tabloids thought of her and it was also nice to see Norm MacDonald make a cameo since he was just a writer at this time.

Equipment of Triol Corporation for ecology.
Hello, dear readers!
If you ponder over the timeless things you will realize that world and life around us are the most valuable things. That's why the important aspect during new-products development is conservation of natural resources for our future generations, and a minimization of impact on the environment.
So we added such a "green" thing to our product line. And here it is – Triol AK06 Variable Speed Drive (VSD) with 18-pulse input, with the very low concentration of harmonics and protection level NEMA4. It ideally suits for powering from generators and extended lines.
Also you need to know that
VSD with 6-puls scheme with rated load, which consists 33% of harmonics in current. However when the power is lower then rated, situation turns much worse. For this purpose, you need generators with the arrearage for work on long line and separate filter devices.
Usage of embedded equalizing chokes into each of three-phase rectifiers, 18-pulse control stations may work in 6-pulse mode. This is one of the key advantage in case there is no 18-pulse transformer on the object.
And the last one, I want to describe the general features of our "green" product :
- ensure functioning in the conditions of the desert and tropics (NEMA4 ), the coast (NEMA4X), thanks to special type of protection of these stations;
- stable operation at high ambient temperatures (up to +60°C (+140°F));
- maximum safety for service staff;
- control System of the VSD continue operation at supply voltage dips up to -50%;
- active input harmonic filter insures compliance with IEEE519 without using of special phase of shifting transformers (THDi<8%);
- safeguard emergency operation (catch on the fly);
- rocking start and shaking modes;
- 1-sync and 1-limit models.
I will keep you informed of developments. You need no spare to ask me. Do not hold back/

McCain-Palin: The Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere
If the vice presidential debate was a game of expectations then Sarah Palin did well. However, how well she did is based solely on the fact that she did not literally collapse on the floor.
Expectations of Palin were so low that if she just stood there for 90 minutes, recited a stump speech and threw in a couple of "maverick" lines, she would have outdone most people's assumptions. This is not, however, how we grade vice presidential debates. The sitting senator from Delaware, Joeseph Biden, clearly had a greater grasp of the facts and presidential policy details, which are what Americans are looking for.
For most of the debate, Palin gave general answers to Gwen Ifill's questions. This was not, as it seemed, entirely Palin's fault, since Ifill's questions were lacking in specificity.
In the past, it was specific questions and follow-ups that had stumped Palin. One can only recall the Katie Couric interview when Palin was asked to name a specific Supreme Court ruling other than Roe v. Wade that she disagreed with, and Palin was unable to name any other case. I personally thought she was going to start saying that we need more maps in this country and recite Miss South Carolina's, "I believe that our, uh, education like such as, uh, South Africa and, uh, the Iraq and everywhere like such as …" speech.
When Ifill did push Palin to answer some of her questions, Palin retorted, "I may not answer the questions that either the moderator or you want to hear, but I'm going to talk straight to the American people."
Oh really? How can Americans know where you stand if you don't answer questions with any details?
On the other hand, Sen. Biden was crisp with the facts. If need be, he seemed more than capable of taking over the presidency, an opinion shared by most Americans. A CNN poll taken after the debate showed that 87 percent of people believe Biden is qualified to take over the presidency, while only 42 percent believe the same about Palin. When it came to who could deliver change, Biden was once again ahead at 53 percent while Palin registered 42 percent.
Also, remember that Biden is the old guy who is part of the Washington establishment while Palin is the "maverick" who is "going to ruffle some feathers." Clearly, the American people see through the right-wing talking points. Asked who performed better during the debate, 51 percent of people polled believed that Biden was better than Palin while 36 percent believed the opposite.
It is easy to see why the American people sided with Biden. Palin kept repeating the same old lines about the government being the problem and that the Democrats were looking too much to the past. Excuse me, but didn't we end up in this economic mess by removing the government from the banking and housing industries?
More government regulation is the solution. If you don't recognize the mistakes of the past, then you'll repeat the same mistakes over and over again (such as electing Republicans).
When it came to foreign policy, Palin did not distinguish herself or her running mate from George Bush. All she could say was that she "loves Israel," even though she's never been there. In fact, Palin has only been to Canada and Mexico. Biden's position on Israel mirrored Palin's, but he at least seemed to know that diplomacy is needed to achieve a two-state solution.
The best line of the night came from Sen. Biden when he was talking about Sen. McCain's health care policy by calling it the "Ultimate Bridge to Nowhere." This debate was about substance, not style. McCain cannot be serious when he says that we live in dangerous times and then picks a vice presidential candidate who has such a poor grasp of the issues.
The Clinton-Gore Administration, with its great "peace and prosperity," brought us the "bridge into the 21st century." Biden's quip sums up a McCain-Palin administration quite nicely: They are the "ultimate bridge to nowhere."

Cities with Nature paved over; the Earth wants to breathe.
When was the last time you walked barefoot in the grass or gazed at the beauty of leaves?
When the Earth is not honored the Creation grieves.
Be gentle with all Creation; a new song awaits in the trees.
anthony glenn miller
Great trees grow from the smallest shoots;
A terraced garden, from a pile of earth,
And a journey of a thousand miles
Begins by taking the first step.
Chapter 64 – Tao Te Ching
Then God said,
"Let the land produce vegetation:
Seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it,
According to their various kinds."
And it was so.
Genesis 1:11
