Wednesday SHINE....
Happy Worship Wednesday SHINE!
We have another wonderful story to share with you today.
I asked my friend, Lisa, to post about her Mother.
Because Lisa is one of my spiritual mentors, I wanted her to share with all of you the power of laying a firm foundation for your children. Or young ones in general.
Lisa has influenced my spiritual journey more than she will ever know. I am grateful for her Mother that showed her the path so that she could show others.
Be blessed SHINE sisters.
How I Hide His Words
by: Lisa Inlow
Without a doubt, my mom has been instrumental in my growing in the Lord. What did she do? I not only saw her read, study her Bible and pray, but she gave me the tools on how to do so effectively.
I am going to basically bullet point what I use and know...from my mother. Thank you Mom, I love you.
* Proverb of the Day. The book of Proverbs has 31 chapters. Today's date is May 9th, read Proverbs 9, tomorrow May 10th, read Proverbs 10. And so on.
* Read 5 Psalms a Day, you will read the entire book in a month. Today is May 9th, read Psalm 9, 39, 69, 99, 129. May 10th, read Psalm 10, 40, 70, 100, 130. Read the corresponding Psalm that goes with the date, then add 30, reading 5 Psalms a day. I'll give you one more, I want y'all to get this. May 11th, read Psalm 11, 41, 71, 101, 131. On the 31st day of the month, read Psalm 119 only. It's the longest chapter in the Bible.
* Read God's word out-loud. There is power in the spoken Word. Just try it. And bonus, it helps me pay attention and keeps my mind focused. And double bonus, are the kids around?? They are hearing Truth! BAM!
* The entire Bible on CD, or Psalms & Proverbs at the minimum. Anytime I walk into my mom's house, to this day, she has God's word on her CD player playing, continually. Again, power in the spoken Word. When I do this (I have a CD player mounted above my kitchen counter) I picture The Spirit just permeating my walls, floors, our bedrooms where we lay our heads...
When my husband is out of town and I am not sleeping well, I put one of my Psalms or Proverbs cd's in my boombox (yep, I said boombox!) on "continual play", that way when I wake up, I hear God's Word!! Hello, can we say comforting beyond comforting? Praise the Lord!
Use God's word in a CD player wherever He leads you. Do you have a child struggling with something? Play God's word in their room, day and night. Yes, even in the daytime when they are not there. We all know there is spiritual warfare happening...day and night. Fight back!!! {I felt a strong leading to pray right this second as I am typing, for someone who needs to put God's Word in their child's room. Do this SHINE sister, today. God bless you}
Now some books that I love...3 guesses who lead me to these books? Yep, Mom. :-)
* 31 Days of Praise by Ruth Myers
* Prayers That Avail Much from Word Ministries, Inc., Germaine Copeland
* Prayer Portions For The Family by Sylvia Gunter
I also use The Power of the Praying Wife by Stormie Omartian. She has prayer cards with prayers for husbands. Easy to tuck in your purse or have in the front console of your car to read at red lights, the carpool line, your lunch break or at your desk.
Dear Father, we are so thankful for your Word, oh man, where would we be with out it. I pray for the ladies reading this that they will be excited about getting to know You better. And I pray that some of the tools listed above will be just what is needed for a more meaningful walk with You. We love you sweet Father. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Thank you Lisa! I glean from your wisdom more than you will ever know. Just this week my babies and I have begun memorizing Psalm 91 in the car on the way to school in the mornings. Why did I wait so long?! It's going beautifully. I love every thing on your list above. :) I have been getting stumped when praying for my husband lately, so I'm going to try your card idea above. Needed that! Love, Sarah
ReplyDelete - Anonymous5/10/2012
Thank you Jesus for Lisa's mom and for Lisa graciously sharing the wisdom she received with more moms! Yet another thing I will add to our home that came from your advice! I am headed to Lifeway today to get me some scripture on CD! I cannot wait to see what a difference it is going to make in the lives of my sweet little ones! For that matter, for the difference in our home for all 6 of us and all who enter! VICTORY, over anything we may face! YES!!
Much love to you sweet friend!

Brad Clothier key in Aetna's sponsorship of Air Capital Classic
Brad Clothier, now regional market president for Aetna, has a long history with the Air Capital Classic golf tournament.
The Wichita Business Journal reports Preferred Health Systems was the longtime title sponsor of the tournament during his time there. PHS dropped its sponsorship when it went through some changes in its parent company, which eventually became Aetna, and this year, the tournament's future appeared in jeopardy.
Clothier talked with the WBJ Wednesday about how he convinced leaders at Aetna that it would be worthwhile for the company to help secure the tournament's future by becoming a title sponsor.

WASHINGTON - The Smithsonian National Zoo announced yesterday that the giant panda cub born there two weeks ago is a girl, is very chatty and "has a fat little belly."
WASHINGTON � The Smithsonian National Zoo announced yesterday that the giant panda cub born there two weeks ago is a girl, is very chatty and �has a fat little belly.�
Scientists confirmed the sex of the cub, which was born to Mei Xiang (pronounced may-SHONG) on Aug. 23.
DNA tests also showed that the zoo�s panda Tian Tian (t-YEN t-YEN) is the father of the cub. Mei Xiang was artificially inseminated twice in late March, with sperm from Tian Tian and from a panda named Gao Gao at the San Diego Zoo, after unsuccessful natural breeding attempts with Tian Tian.
The National Zoo said on Twitter that giant panda cubs traditionally are not named until they are 100 days old. It also said that the cub �has a fat little belly� and is very vocal, according to a senior curator, Brandie Smith.
A stillborn panda cub delivered Aug. 24 by Mei Xiang was also female, and tests confirmed that Tian Tian was her father as well, the zoo said.
The National Zoo is among four zoos in the United States that have giant pandas. The new cub is the third born at the zoo to Mei Xiang and Tian Tian, who are on loan from China through 2015.
Soon after the birth, the zoo reported that the mother and cub were bonding.
The zoo posts updates about the pandas and hosts a live video feed of them on its website.

A technique for full-thickness (sclera, choroid, and retina) resection of the posterior segment of the eye is described. The resected area (10 mm in diameter) was replaced with scleral homograft. Resections were performed on the eyes of baboons, rhesus monkeys, and owl monkeys. There was no instance of retinal detachment or inflammatory reaction to the graft. Moderate vitreous hemorrhage occurred in some animals, but the hemorrhage was completely resorbed in each case within six to eight weeks. We conclude that fullthickness resection of the posterior segment is feasible in the primate eye.

Notes & Reviews:
Wilhelm Kempff (1895 - 1991) was a major German pianist and composer. Although his repertoire included Bach, Chopin, Schumann, Liszt and Brahms, he was particularly well known for his interpretations of the music of Beethoven and Schubert. In this recital he performs Mozart's Piano Concertos Nos.8 & 24, leaving no questions that his Mozart was also memorable.

A free-standing shower enclosure can add style to your bathroom. It can take up a fraction of the space of a traditional bathtub, and you can choose from many styles, colours and shapes, including rectangular, square, rounded or angled. You're sure to find an enclosure that matches your needs, as well as the design and decor of your bathroom. Before you choose a free-standing shower enclosure for your home, there are several things you need to consider.
- Skill level:
- Moderate
Other People Are Reading
- 1
Measure the space where you will install the free-standing shower enclosure carefully. This will help you choose the right height, depth, width and shape.
- 2
Find out if the company that sells the shower enclosure you're considering has done anti-corrosion salt tests. This will ensure that the finish doesn't peel off, chip or fade. The company should also have placed magnetic strips or some other water-leakage protection on the shower enclosure.
- 3
Look for free-standing shower enclosures that come with all the parts needed to install it, including a faucet, drain, riser, enclosure ring, supply lines, support and, of course, a shower head. If these parts come with the enclosure, there's a much better chance that they will all fit and work well together.
- 4
Pay attention to the glass in the free-standing shower enclosure. The glass is a major part of the look and feel of the enclosure. It should be at least five to six millimetres thick for safety reasons. A protective framing also provides stability and safety.
- 5
Check out many different tile samples before choosing. You will need to tile the area inside the shower enclosure to protect it from moisture. Choose tiles that match the enclosure you select, as well as your bathroom's existing decor.

Flying Heron Herons are waders, seen along coastlines, marshes, or near the shores of ponds or streams. They are expert fishers. Herons hunt their prey by walking slowly, or standing still for long periods of time and waiting for fish to come within range of their long necks and sharp bills. Look inside for the Red-Winged Blackbird, Wood Duck, and Beaver who also live in the marshes. There are other hiding marsh critters to look for. The Heron represents balance and determination, and the ability to stand on your own two feet , to walk into deep waters without fear. Don't forget to find the LadyBug who will bring you happiness and joy! |

Gerry from Vaudreuil Qc (Posted on 2015-03-05) - Great tasting Tea....Review by Ren
- I'm having 1894 with my sister and we both find this tea very flavorful and enjoyable tasting. Would really start your day off (Posted on 2013-04-04)
- Malty like Moosehead beerReview by Anderson
- Truly a wonderful addition to your tea collection. I love the deep dark beer-like flavours. Makes an excellent base for brine for chicken. (Posted on 2012-09-17)
- English Breakfast AlternativeReview by Joy
I have been drinking English Breakfast tea in the morning for years and several years ago was introduced to Murchie's.
A year ago this Texan had an opportunity to visit Victoria and the Murchie's shop there. I asked about an alternative to English Breakfast that would give me a little more zing for the morning. The associate suggested 1894 Select, and I've been drinking it since and loving it. Laura likes it for the afternoon, and I'm sure it's good then -- but it's a wonderful day-starter, too.
Laura commented that she thought it would fare well with milk. I drink it with milk, and it fares very well. (Posted on 2012-08-20) - THE Orange PekoeReview by Laura - Murchie's Team Member
When I started at Murchie's, I fully admit I was a tea neophite, raised on mediocre drug store teas. So, when it came to trying something that I thought I knew what it should taste like, I waited a while. Then a few months ago, I had my first cup of 1894.
What an amazing brew! A beautiful amber colouring, and a smooth, yet malty flavour. I had it without milk, but it would probably fare really well with milk as well.
I highly suggest this one for someon looking for a great afternoon tea with some depth to it. (Posted on 2012-06-26)

Strength Ratings
Flavour Profile Guide
Tea and coffee tasting is a very individual, multi-dimensional experience: one person's perfect cup can be too strong or weak, too brisk or watery for the next person. At Murchie's, we believe that the best tea or coffee is the one that YOU like the best! We use the following flavour profile guides to help compare our teas and coffees within a relative scale.
Tea Strength Ratings
This rating method indicates the strength of flavour each tea has when brewed according to our brewing guide.RATING |
Light/Delicate: Very light in colour and delicate in flavour | ||
Medium: Medium-light cup with slightly fuller cup | ||
Medium-Strong: Medium-dark cup, medium body, and full flavour without harshness | ||
Strong: Full body, rich cup, takes milk well | ||
Very Strong: Rich, dark cup with very full, strong flavour and briskness |
Coffee Ratings
We rate the flavour properties of our coffees along two dimensions: roast and body.Roast is simply a result of how long and how hot the beans have been roasted, which can be seen in the colour of the finished bean, and typically results in general flavour traits:
Light Roast | More acidity, brightness and a slight pucker | |
Medium Roast | Slightly richer flavours, some acidity, enhanced creaminess | |
Dark Roast | Distinctive roasted flavour, sometimes notes of toasted sugar or charcoal |
Body is the term used to describe how the brewed coffee feels in your mouth:
Light Body | Easy to drink with little lingering flavour, 'thin' or 'clean' feeling on the palate | |
Medium Body | Heavier, creamier mouth-feel with more lingering flavour | |
Full Body | Rich, full-mouth feeling: hits all of the palate and lingers |
Brewing Guides
Tea Brewing Guide
Different types of teas should be brewed according to certain times and water temperatures to bring out their best flavours. Use this guide as a starting point, and then experiment until you find the perfect brewing method for your favourite tea.
Based on approximately one level teaspoon (2.5g) of loose tea or one tea bag per 6-8 ounce (180-240ml) cup. For stronger flavour, add more tea. Brewing for longer may increase the strength of the tea, but will likely also cause bitterness.
Brew times shown in minutes.
Coffee Brewing Guide
The simplest methods for brewing coffee are drip coffee, pour over and French press. These guidelines are a starting point; modify the ratio of coffee to water, the grind, and brewing time to your taste. If your coffee is not strong enough, increase the proportion of coffee per cup of water, grind the beans finer, or allow them to brew longer – or any combination of these factors. If your coffee is too strong, simply do the opposite.
Drip coffee or pour over method: hot water is gradually poured over coffee grounds and slowly drips through
• Fine to medium grind coffee
• 1.5 to 2.5 tablespoons of coffee per cup of water
• 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of coffee per cup (e.g. 4-6 tbsp for a 4-cup French press)
• Pour about 1/3 of the water over the coffee grinds; wait about 30 seconds and then pour in the rest
• Wait 4-5 minutes, then push down the plunger to separate the grounds from finished coffee, and enjoy!

Twelve months ago, Foster was an automatic selection for Steve Redgrave's coxless four crew, but a debilitating back injury, which left him struggling to walk, changed all that.
Now, after four months out of the sport, he faces a battle with Ed Coode for a place alongside Redgrave, as the great Olympian bids for a record- breaking fifth gold medal in Sydney.
After winning his place in the crew, Foster's road to Sydney has been far from smooth. With an appearance that lends more to surfing than rowing, Foster initially struggled in the shadow of his illustrious crew-mate.
He missed several races after putting his arm through a glass window, but quickly regained his place in the boat. With the Olympic Games in his sights, he was devastated when doctors recommended surgery on a long- term back injury.
Now, instead of joining Matthew Pinsent and James Cracknell in Redgrave's "Oarsome Foursome", he will take his place in the British international eight for Henley's Grand Challenge Cup.
But with selection for the World Championships in Canada made soon after the 150-year-old regatta draws to a close, Coode and Foster know eagle- eyed selectors will be watching every stroke.
"We decided that changing the composition of the coxless four would not be wise at this stage of the season," the British team manager, David Tanner, said.
"Tim is on his way back to full fitness and has been working hard in recent weeks. However, the crews will remain the same for Henley and the World Cup in Lucerne the following week.
"Tim raced in the eight at the recent World Cup regatta and finished second. He's a loyal team player and he understands our decision."
Redgrave's crew are regarded as the clear favourites to secure their senior member his 18th Henley title in the Stewards' Challenge Cup.
The "Oarsome Foursome" face Johnny Searle's Molesey Boat Club in Saturday's semi-finals, a race the world champions are expected to win easily.
That should set up an intriguing battle with the powerhouse Danish national team, who are smarting for revenge following last year's narrow Henley defeat.

Dude, Kyle is brilliant. And I miss him to death. I miss his raw irreverent humour and ability to shock/make me laugh. He is a true artist.

You aren't a crap writer, but I do wish you'd post something. I love the songs, because music is the prize, but I'd like to hear your words too.
Don't go insane. Or if you do, at least let's go down that road together. We can invite Rhinda to join the party.
thank you my excellent friend your kind words gave me the boost i needed and my adored rhinda would bring a bottle wine to the party i just know it^_^ my rhinda and mims have saved me on more than one occasion and i love them both for that and more, part of the problem is i only go out very briefly to take my youngest to school that's it so i don't have much social interaction the conversations i have on here are the sum total of my conversations for each and every day, mostly i am happy with my own company and it's fine but this week i had a head full of hormones and it got a bit overwhelming feeling much more positive now though so thank you for your kind words and friendship i appreciate both i did have a post i had put on draft i may go and finish it, possibly ^_^ have a super sweet evening ^_^

Love this! What a thought. 🙂
in the future will we be measured by our digital presence? our mark on the world will continue even without our needing to be there, i have always found this subject fascinating from my earliest days on second life it was sad when we lost someone in this world yet in a sense they were still there in second life their avatar their personality it was strange, i always loved the possibility of virtual worlds and i loved second life unfortunately i don't go on there now it became somehow different but even though i don't my avatars still exist just waiting for me to slip them back on, one day in the future even the concept of life may well change from what we accept now how long before digital life is as viable as this life? thank you for chatting my lovely have a wonderful evening love and hugs xx
This is indeed an interesting topic. Same to you sweetie. Have a lovely weekend.

Water pollution issue in Singapore
This is the original, unedited letter I emailed to Straits Time forum. It was published online on 8 September 2016, entitled "Don't overlook rubbish in less-frequented areas".
It has been said that Singapore is not so much a "clean" city as it is a "cleaned" city. I agree. On 23 August 2016, I saw lots of rubbish floating in the river next to Braddell bus depot. It must have been washed into the river from drains flowing through Bishan and Toa Payoh after a storm.
© Photographer: Jimmytst | Agency: Dreamstime.comI highlighted the water pollution issue to PUB via OneService app, and three days later, I saw some workers cleaning up the river at Potong Pasir from the rubbish that we, as a society, have been littering or disposing of.
© Photographer: Jimmytst | Agency: Dreamstime.comOn 7 September, I revisited the river at Potong Pasir and noticed that the rubbish has reappeared after a pre-dawn downpour.
© Photographer: Jimmytst | Agency: Dreamstime.comI think we tend to focus on having clean-looking waters in the more frequented areas such as Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park and Kallang Basin where residents and visitors hang out, but the less frequented areas are often neglected. Also, I doubt that the otters living in Kallang Basin would want to swim upstream back to Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park when there is rubbish floating in Kallang River that flows through the high-density populated areas.
We must realise that everything that we throw indiscriminately in the drains will end up in the rivers that flow towards the sea. But we are so preoccupied with our own lives that we fail to see the impacts of our inconsiderate actions. It is usually when a storm occurs that all these accumulated rubbish in the drains are washed into the rivers that we notice the full impact of our actions – unsightly flotsam, stinking water and eutrophication caused by algal bloom, all of which affect aquatic life negatively.
Are we going to continue to ignore the root of the pollution problem in our country and shirk our responsibility in keeping the environment clean by distracting ourselves through our consumeristic lifestyles and not caring about how we dispose of rubbish in public places? Are we only concerned with keeping up an image of living in a supposedly "green and clean city" by focusing only on the appearance of the more frequented areas and neglecting the less frequented areas? When we do not think about how our actions affect the animals, plants and the environment, our actions will ultimately affect ourselves adversely because we are all interconnected in the ecosystem.
Two days after my letter was published in ST Forum Online, I noticed the river at Potong Pasir appeared to have been cleaned up by the national water agency PUB (Public Utilities Board) as it looked cleaner, but this morning (13 September), I noticed the water pollution has recurred, as the river had floating rubbish and debris, presumably washed into the river from nearby drains after a storm had occurred the day before.
"Water in the Kallang River flows into the Marina Reservoir."
(From PUB says water pollution at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park "not likely to be kerosene")
Enough is enough – something has to be done to deal with the persistent water pollution problem at its roots. We are all complicit in this violation against the environment, and ultimately against ourselves.
Stubby squids and other mysteries
A visit to Lentor-Tagore forest
Having been reading on Facebook about the impending development of Lentor area that will result in the destruction of forest and two natural streams, I decided to check out the area this afternoon in search of the elusive streams.
But it turned out that I was a bit too late because when I arrived at Yio Chu Kang road via Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5, I saw that the entrance to the forest, where the streams were supposed to be, has been fenced off, and a portion of the forest behind a bus stop along Yio Chu Kang road has already been cleared.
I decided to cycle around Lentor private housing estate, hoping to find another way to Lentor forest. The nearest I could get to the forest is via a canal near the junction of Lentor avenue and Seletar Expressway (SLE).
From the end of the canal, I could see heavy machinery clearing the forest. I found a path through the forest fringe that led me closer to the clearing.
I decided not to venture too close to the clearing and turned back. I later circled round the area via Springleaf nature park in the north to the other side of the forest, hoping to find an entrance to the forest from Tagore Industrial Avenue.
I managed to find a small entrance along the avenue, and walked some distance along the fringe of the Tagore forest. I came to the point where forest clearing was taking place in the south beside a stagnant-looking water body.
Is that part of a natural stream? I wasn't sure, and I didn't want to trespass the construction site, and decided to hike in another part of the forest. I followed a track through Tagore forest that led me to SLE in the north.
Apart from some wildlife such as a wild boar, a jungle rooster and munias, I didn't see much in this area. There seems no signs of any natural streams. I suppose they are only found in the part of the Lentor forest that has been fenced off, which I wasn't able to access. (Or maybe there is another entrance to Lentor forest that leads to the streams that I am unaware of, as I am unfamiliar with the area.)
I decided to call it a day, as evening was approaching. I cycled via Teachers' Estate back to Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5, and took a lift up to the highest floor of a HDB block, and snapped some sunset pictures, showing an aerial view of the remaining forest next to Teachers' Estate.
#BLM & #CLM: Being part of an oppressed group and standing in solidarity
#BlackLivesMatter and #CyclistsLivesMatter
I have come to realise that just as Black people, or darker-skinned people in general, are the most oppressed group of people on Earth when it comes to race and ethnicity, cyclists are the most oppressed group of people on Earth when it comes to the mode of transport or travel.
This realisation came to me recently while I was mulling over activism on social issues, particularly issues on anti-Black racism and anti-cyclist sentiments that have persisted for many years.
For a start, what do #BlackLivesMatter and #CyclistsLivesMatter have in common?
On the surface, both of these liberation movements seem unrelated and disparate because one has to do with race and the other has to do with the mode of transport or travel. But I would venture to say that both the Black community and cycling community have been subject to systemic oppression and inexplicable hatred from others for the longest time.
For the Black community, the age-old enemies have always been "micro-aggressions, white privilege and white supremacy". Through centuries of white Euro-centric media propaganda as well as colorist traditions and mindsets in various parts of the world that favour white skin or fair skin over dark skin, the most sacred spaces in Black people are "often filled with stories of trauma, internalized racism and the struggle of self-love".
Similarly, for the cycling community, the enemies are usually prejudice, ignorance and classism. On pavements or sidewalks, cyclists are often unwelcome as they are seen as a menace or nuisance by many pedestrians. On roads, cyclists are also regularly harassed or bullied by many motorists who drive cars, taxis, buses or trucks.
Both the oppressed groups – the Black community and the cycling community – often feel like they don't really belong to the societal system because they don't fit into the perceived norms. They are also often subject to unfair or negative stereotypes.
For example, whenever the issue of anti-Black racism or police brutality on unarmed Black people is brought up on social media or discussion threads, someone would attempt to derail the conversation by mentioning some negative stereotypes such as Black-on-Black crime instead of acknowledging that the problem of racial discrimination and institutional oppression does exist. The irony is that Black-on-Black crime is a direct result of White supremacy and internalised racism. If not for White supremacy, would Black people (or people of colour in general) be struggling with internalised hatred towards themselves and towards one another?
Similarly, whenever the issue of anti-cyclist sentiments is brought up on social media or forums, someone would attempt to deflect from the issue by talking about errant cyclists who knock down pedestrians on sidewalks or who flout traffic rules on roads. While there will always be a handful of rude or inconsiderate cyclists who give the majority of cyclists a bad name, it doesn't detract from the reality that cyclists in general are discriminated and not given equal space, whether on pavements or on roads.
Contrary to negative colonialist views of Black people, Africans and African Americans in general are some of the most amazingly warm, humane and hospitable people in their own right. They have contributed to many important inventions and shaped the American culture, and they excel in art, sports, music and entertainment, to name a few. Without Black musicians, for example, there would be no rap, R&B, rock and roll, and soul music as we know and hear them today.
Similarly, cyclists are changing the world for the better in a number of ways. They take up less space and help ease traffic congestion on roads. They are environmentally friendly, as compared to motorists driving greenhouse-gas-emitting vehicles. Many of them also advocate a healthy lifestyle.
It is time for the world to acknowledge that Black lives do matter and cyclists' lives do matter. It is also time for the world to stop subscribing to negative stereotypes of Black or darker skinned people as well as of cyclists and stop harming or killing them, and start appreciating them for who they are and how they contribute to the betterment of the world in their own ways and start standing in solidarity with them.
Being human in an ever-shifting landscape of thoughts and emotions
In a computer RPG (Role Playing Game) game such as Ultima, the character is always in the middle of the screen. It may appear to be moving when we press the direction arrow keys to move it around to explore the virtual world, but it is the landscape that is moving while the character remains stationary.
In a way, each of us is like the character. The scenery around us may change as we move from place to place going about our lives, but in a deeper reality, we remain stationary – only the circumstances around us change, and we feel compelled to react or respond to changing circumstances.
Maybe therein lies the secret of remaining grounded in inner peace and stability? Maybe what we need to do isn't so much as to remain unperturbed and emotionless, but to observe with equanimity our thoughts and emotions that rise and ebb with each changing circumstance.
On my way cycling to Waterway Point via the Northeast riverine PCN (Park Connector Network), I thought to myself it was one of the most scenic and enjoyable places to cycle. The nature scenery, the breeze, the relatively few people compared to the usually crowded East Coast Parkway.
But when I reached Waterway Point, my mood changed. The buildings in the vicinity looked rather opulent and soulless – they looked more like an extravagant display of affluence and grandeur at the expense of the migrant construction workers' blood, sweat and tears who built those buildings. They reminded me of the Babylonian Hanging Gardens – once a symbol of material success and status, now a relic of a fallen kingdom that has been reduced to ruins. Maybe Singapore would be destined to such a fate if the relentless quest for materialism, capitalism and mass consumerism continues unabated, unchecked and unchallenged.
Addressing the roots of violent injustice
"There's certainly no quick and easy answers for how to address the violent injustice that's just come to the forefront of our awareness, or the whole spectrum of violent injustice against the dark / the feminine / the other that the recent murders of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile belong to…
… and also I do sense that the collective efforts of many individuals taking deep self-responsibility and doing their own shadow integration work is one key piece of the puzzle that can lead our world to healing.
Because there's not a single one of us alive who's blameless in this.
As humans, we're all implicated in the cycle of pain and violence that surrounds us, and until we meet our own internal violence, shamelessly and fearlessly, we just unconsciously perpetuate it in our personal and collective lives.
My strongest encouragement and my best wishes for you to do just that."
Carolyn Elliott
WITCH magazine.
Yes, come to think of it, there is a deeper layer beneath the surface of violent injustice in this world, and doing shadow integration work can "lead our world to healing". To me, the root cause is as ancient as the proverbial two trees in the garden in some mystical traditions, whether it be esoteric or gnostic Christianity, or kabbalah, or Buddhism, or as Thich Nhat Hanh's words put it – "we are here to awake from the illusion of separateness", which I interpret as the illusion that we are separate from the Source, or Divine Love, or our Higher Self, and consequently the illusion that we are all separate from our true self and from one another in this world.
I learned from some resources that the two trees may symbolise two systems of thoughts, for the intricate network of the branches and roots of the trees resembles the complex network of neural pathways in the brain. The tree of knowledge of good and evil, to me, is a mindset that thinks we are separate from the Divine, causing us to lose sight of our true identity as Divine Love, and mistaking our actions or any outward things to determine if we are good or bad. Some fundamentalist religions, including evangelical christianity, went further and suggested that humans were so-called inherently evil or "originally sinful", and this destructive mindset only fuels a sense of self-loathing and self-hatred, from which violent injustice arises – both towards oneself and towards others.
Healing comes, in my opinion, when we return to the Source of who we are, knowing intuitively and experientially, that we are t'shuvah – made in the image of Divine Love, born with the power to do good or bad, and these actions don't change our true identity as a Beloved child of the Universe or Source or Divine Love. I love the story of the African tribe that demonstrates this truth or principle of how a person who had done something hurtful and wrong can be held up in truth and love by his brothers and sisters "to reconnect him with his true Nature, to remind him who he really is, until he fully remembers the truth from which he'd temporarily been disconnected: "I AM GOOD" (or more specifically, "I am Love")."
Whether the story of the tribe is historically true, as discussed in the above link, I believe it underlines the ancient and timeless truth that we are essentially Love, and the tree of life, or the system of thought that says we are One with Divine Love and with one another, frees us to be our true self, and to love and heal ourselves and one another from the inside out, as it is a transformation of the mind from within the heart and soul.
In fact, at this point of my understanding of how the world functions, I would venture to take one step further and surmise that as human civilisations move away from the Motherland or the birthplace of humanity, there is a risk of them losing sight of their original root or true identity, except perhaps in indigenous societies that retain their ancient way of life and cultures, such as the Aboriginals in Oceania, the tribes in Asia and South America and the native North American tribes. I believe much of the western civilisation (as well as other non-indigenous societies that have adopted a "modern", urbanised way of life) have lost sight of the roots they had in Africa as their ancestors moved out from Africa to settle in Europe and other places thousands of years ago.
Somewhere along the way, the white Europeans started to think they were separate from their true self and from others, and started to hate themselves and others. The modern legal and criminal justice system probably came from the white people, which stems from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. For instance, the western christianity teaches retributive justice through the concept of a literal hell as a place for punishment and the penal substitutionary theory that presupposes an angry God in the sky demanding a blood sacrifice to appease his wrath. So, the more legalistic the white Europeans became, the more they ended up hating themselves and others for not measuring up to their own perceived standards. When they lost sight of their true identity as Love, they became blinded by the illusion of separateness and sought to define their worth and identity by outward achievements and power and status. Hence, that is probably the reason the early European imperialists started competing with one another and went to other continents to invade and conquer the lands and the native peoples of Africa, Asia and America, destroying peoples, culture and the natural environment as a result, simply to prove they were so-called superior.
So in a nutshell, I see white supremacy (or any other kind of supremacy), capitalism and patriarchy as a manifestation of having lost sight of our true identity of Divine Love, and consequently, having internalised self-hatred and self-loathing. (At this point, I want to say that this malady affects everyone, not only the white Europeans, but because European colonialism and imperialism has such a huge impact around the globe, I want to use this example to make a point.) Hence, through integrative shadow work, I believe the systemic violence and injustice in this world can be addressed when each of us returns to the Source, as often as possible, whenever we forget or lose sight of who we originally are, and rediscovers and remembers all over again that we are in essence Divine Love, thereby experiencing a deep transformation from within, and awake and continue to awake from "the illusion of separateness". I believe the result will be a deep, lasting peace and unity, which we can experience individually and collectively.
I say "no" to nationalism
I am coming to realise that I am actually nothing to the society or the nation that I happen to be born and grow up in. The society or the country probably only cares about my existence if I happen to represent the country in a positive way; for example, if I were to do something so noteworthy or praiseworthy that other countries look at me and say "Wow", this country will then use me and my "fame" to boast to the world, saying "See – this person belongs to us. He makes us proud", when all the while, I am just one of the numerous denizens living here in relative obscurity except for having my biodata in their computer databases. It actually underlines a sense of insecurity that a nation typically has when it relies on parading its achievements in front of other nations to build its ego and identity. On the other hand, if I were to do something that reflects badly on the country in front of other countries, I can imagine that its national news media would work itself up in a frenzy to shame me and "pariah-ise" me. No, it is not me that they care about; rather, it is their reputation that they are concerned with as they want to keep up the public image of being so-called squeaky clean and untarnished and being number one in the global rat race or competition, which is nothing more than an illusion or delusion.
So, my point is: why should I care what the society or the country think of me when they don't really care or take notice of my day-to-day existence? Why should I want to conform to the perceived norms in order to be accepted when everyone else is too busy trying to fit in in order to be accepted and recognised themselves?
If anything, I owe my existence and sustenance not so much to the country per se, but to the community that provides me with opportunities to grow and contribute my skills, knowledge and values to make the world a better place. I understand that everything is interconnected, but I would rather pay homage to those who have directly built me up than subscribe to some obscure notion called patriotism or nationalism. To me, nationalism is nothing more than some political agenda of indoctrination based on power and control, that divides and discriminates rather than unites and includes everyone in the world.
Instead of seeing myself as a citizen of a country, which has political implications and connotations, including those of systemic oppression and marginalisation of those who are considered "outsiders", I would prefer to see myself as a citizen of the world (or cosmos) or a child of the Universe.
Cycling is like flying
Cycling is the closest thing to flying I can ever get without developing wings or depending on an external engine to get moving.
It feels like flying because I am elevated above the ground (though ever so slightly) and I am moving without touching the ground and I feel the breeze against my face while moving.
It is different from riding on a motorcycle or travelling on a car or bus or train as cycling doesn't depend on a motor. Also, the speed and direction at which I cycle can be controlled by how I move my legs and body, almost like how a bird moves its wings and body in flight.
Cycling is like a powerful drug – it can get addictive. The more I cycle, the more I want to cycle. The more I gain confidence in maneuvering the bicycle, the further and the more places I want to cycle to. Each new destination brings new satisfaction at the end of the day. And as a new day begins, another new destination becomes the next goal. Or sometimes I get a desire to try another route to cycle to the same destination and experience the thrill of exploring new routes.
Sometimes danger lurks when I cease to be alert momentarily, and I may stumble or fall or hit an obstacle or get hit by a car. I may get bruises or cuts or scratches, and I may spend the next few days nursing my wounds and go about my life in bandages and rest from cycling. But after recovering, I will start cycling again and rediscover the joy of cycling, this time with a little bit more caution and a little bit more wisdom.
Being a regular bike commuter is somewhat like being a pilot flying a plane. A typical day of "flight" begins when I board the "plane" (i.e. my bicycle) and roll along the "runway" (which may be a pavement or a corridor or a car park etc) before taking off into the air (usually a main road). I will cruise and soar and glide like a bird, and at times hit a "turbulence" when I travel along bumpy roads. I will feel the strain as I pedal uphill and also the relief as I coast downhill. Along familiar long roads, I usually lapse into an "auto-pilot" mode, and let my subconscious take over the navigation process. Finally, I will arrive at my destination, and touch down on the "runway" before coming to a stop (usually at a car park or bicycle bay etc). I will disembark from the "plane", grateful for another successful "flight" and for arriving safe and sound.
President Obama's speech in Canada
Video information
President Barack Obama spoke to Parliament following the North American Leaders' Summit. Obama spoke on wide range of topics including the close relationship with Canada, gay rights, equality for women, terrorism, climate change, immigration and the economy.
"When refugees escape barrel bombs and torture, and migrants cross deserts and seas seeking a better life, we cannot simply look the other way. We certainly can't label as possible terrorists vulnerable people who are fleeing terrorists.
We can insist that the process is orderly. We can insist that our security is preserved. Borders mean something. But in moments like this, we are called upon to see ourselves in others, because we were all once strangers. If you weren't a stranger, your grandparents were strangers. Your great-grandparents were strangers. They didn't all have their papers ready. They fumbled with language faced discrimination, had cultural norms that didn't fit. At some point, somewhere, your family was an outsider. So the mothers, the fathers, the children we see today — they're us. We can't forsake them.
So, as Americans and Canadians, we will continue to welcome refugees, and we can ensure that we're doing so in a way that maintains our security. We can and we will do both."
President Barack Obama

The whole time I was there, I felt the love and support of members from StampTV. There was no internet access, but I was able to login to Facebook from time to time. (The reception there was abysmal.)
Each time I logged in, there were messages from my friends at STV. You have no idea how much of a lift this was for me.
So thank you everyone - the community of STV is the best I've…

Happiness, gold and treasure maybe? or will they find the meaning of friendship or some faggotry like that. Well I don't know, don't ask me. No I didn't expect you to know. Well, just watch the darn videotape and shart the fudge up.
What? You... what? You have to speak up. Oh, oh that! No, nothing like that, just that sony vegas is hating me at the moment, just like my pet ghost Jim.
Filmed round May 2013, took a while to edit, cuz of stupid pants vegas. NO I DON'T WANT YOU TO CRASH WHEN I'M EDITING, NO, STOP IT! STOOOP!!! FOR FRISKIES SAKE STOP CRASHING!!! AAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Production quality was so good we were nominated for an Oscar, but then society got hold of the good news, and started a war against the evil robots from outer space. The hummanns won. the end.....?
Keep this shit on youtube.
Sorry. I do find it entertaining, but Newgrounds is more centered for artistic endeavors, and most of the community, specifically the authoritative/moderative folks generally frown upon live action material, unless there's a good amount of animation composited in.
What I think you'd benefit from, is rotoscoping your live action stuff. It would keep its entertaining quality, while staying faithful to what Newgrounds is all about; the arts.
Actually, I was honestly going to try and do rotoscoping, but that did take me waaaaaaaay to long. But I could try and do it again, only keeping the key frames, passing positions, and a few other frames to keep the framerate smooth. Hmmm.
I'm kinda wondering why they actually let my derp.movies series pass thru' the inspection. probably just a bot making those decisions.

I also love playing with my foster brother. Except he's really big and ALWAYS wants to play. I'm pretty laid back though, so sometimes I have to tell him to chill because I still need my rest and relaxation. I love laying in the sun in my big back yard, but sometimes my foster mom turns on this thing where water shoots up in the air-I'm not too sure about it yet, but my foster brother loves it and I just stare at him when he jumps and runs and tries to bite the water. Have I mentioned he's a little crazy?? And my foster mom is cool, but she calls me silly names and talks in this weird voice when she's telling me how cute I am. I just need a normal family! I love people and I'm really good at getting baths! I share my food nicely with my brother and I'm crate trained. My mom says I know when shes not feeling well because Im extra cuddly and give her kisses to make her feel better. Oh, and I never bark...unless I'm chasing a squirrel! I walk well on a leash too. I do need a privacy fence because I'm a master chain link climber. It's pretty cool-I should probably be on American Ninja Warrior. Anyway, I'm just looking for my forever home where I can love and cuddle with my parents and siblings. And protect them from the awful squirrels.

Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal (Macintosh)
Critic Score
100 point score based on reviews from various critics. 3.8
User Score
5 point score based on user ratings. |
It has been a long journey. From the humble beginnings as a youth in the security of Candlekeep, traveling to the depths of slaved-worked mines, to the cloak-and-dagger politics of Baldur's Gate; as far down as the capital city of Amn, having to deal with the depraved obsessions of the madman Jon Irenicus and an army of undead. The protagonist has seen the death of friends, gained new companions, and met lovers. After much hardship and toil it has come down to this. It all ends here in Tethyr. A great war for dominance is waging between the children of the god Bhaal. The protagonist stands in the center of the struggle. It is time to end the questing and get the answers sought for so very long.Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal is an add-on to Shadows of Amn and requires it for playing. Despite being an expansion pack, the game directly continues the story from Shadows of Amn, and is the final chapter of the Baldur's Gate saga, following the adventures of the main character through the Forgotten Realms universe. The hero(ine) encounters new characters, new lands, new items, equipment, quests, and monsters, up to the ultimate battle that concludes the overarching story.
The add-on raises the level cap to 40, and allows the characters to access the most powerful attacks and spells. All the party members from the previous game are playable and selectable from the onset, with the addition of a new surprising companion, Sarevok, whom the player has met in the first game. The game also adds a large dungeon called Watcher's Keep, which contains the game's most powerful enemies and can be accessed from Shadows of Amn, provided Throne of Bhaal is installed.

Wizards of the Coast published a novelization of this game in 2001, written by Drew Karpyshyn.Pantaloon
Ever wonder what the Gold Pantaloons in Baldur's Gate were for? What about the Silver ones in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn? If you import your character from BG1 (who has the Gold Pantaloons) into BG2, find the Silver ones there, and then import this character into Throne of Bhaal, you will need to find the Bronze Pantalettes. After that, Kerrick the Smith can combine them to create the Big Metal Unit, giving your character an AC of -10, as well as the Big Metal Rod weapon which shoots frag grenades, pulse ammo, and scorcher ammo. Wearing the armor makes your character literally look like a Juggernaut Golem.Awards

Rioters attacked police in north Belfast in a second consecutive night of violence between Protestants and Catholics. Police said about 30 officers were injured.
Rival factions totaling about 350 people hurled gasoline bombs, acid bombs and stones at officers trying to keep them apart, police said. At least two homemade grenades exploded near police, who said they fired seven plastic bullets in response.
Police said about 30 officers were injured. One soldier suffered burns on his face after being hit by an acid bomb, a spokesman said.
The trouble spread from the original two flashpoints of Twaddell Avenue and Brompton Park in the divided Ardoyne area, to the Protestant Glenbryn neighborhood where rioters seized a car and forced it into military lines.
Youths on the rooftops of Ardoyne shops sent a barrage of stones and gasoline bombs at police, and a homemade grenade was also thrown at police lines. Officers warned they would respond with plastic bullets unless the attacks stopped.
The first day of attacks began Wednesday afternoon when parents arrived to pick up their children from the Holy Cross School, which was at the center of bitter sectarian clashes for months last year.
Late Wednesday, Catholic and Protestant rioters attacked police with fire bombs and acid bombs as well as bricks, bottles and fireworks.
Forty–eight police officers and several civilians were injured. Police said they had hit seven protesters with plastic bullets. Several police vehicles were set afire and destroyed.
New disturbances flared Thursday when Protestant rioters targeted a second Catholic school, Our Lady of Mercy. Seventeen cars in the school grounds were damaged by men who smashed doors and windshields.
Shocked parents said their children were in hysterics and had to be hurried home.
"Is it worth a child's life bringing her to school to be educated?" asked one mother, Marie Bradley.
Protestants and Catholics continued to blame each other for the trouble in the divided Ardoyne section of northern Belfast.
The Holy Cross School was closed, but was to reopen on Friday.
The Rev. Aidan Troy, chairman of the school board of governors, said the board had decided to reopen the school "in the interests of the staff and pupils."
Last fall, Holy Cross school was the target of months of demonstrations by Protestants, who daily blocked the road and shouted insults at the Catholic schoolgirls and their parents. They claimed Catholics had attacked their homes.
The protests, which ended in November, forced police to deploy hundreds of officers backed by British soldiers to ensure the children's safety each day.
Senior politicians, clergy and community leaders on all sides appealed for calm.

If you are looking for a nice sheer nude lipstick, go for this one. If you want a mauve (which I did) go for the new glazewear lipstick in Mauve Moon. Like the pp said, this stuff has no mauve or pink or any real color in it at all. Total nude color.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I had put off buying this particular lipstick because of not really knowing what color it was going to be. I knew it was going to be a 'cream' lipstick which is what I wanted, I always liked mauve tones and you really couldn't go wrong with that color,(or so I thought), and when it was finally on sale for $1.79, I jumped at the chance and bought it. Boy, oh boy... if you are looking for an orangey-peach lipstick, then this is the one for you. I have no idea why Avon named this one "Glossy Mauve", because seriously there are no, and I mean absolutely NO mauve/pink/rose tones to it at all. Well...I wasn't out very much money at all and my mother may use it so it wasn't a total loss, but I myself would never purchase this particular color again.

Despite acclaim by accomplished writers my hub PORTRAIT OF A MOTHER is still to be featured. Would somebody please help?
I have no idea because I love your articles! Write to firstname.lastname@example.com and ask.
Look into the revolving and internal changes that the publishing industry is taking and yet to be made.The merger of Random House and Penguin Group USA(known now as Random/Penguin),will continue to effect publishing as its moves slowly away from hardback,paperback and books,and looking toward new technology(kindles,i-pads,i-pods,tablets,smartphones,e-zines,etc.)and others,to boost profit,bottom lines and sales.Still for authors,journalists and writers,the opportunities abound as many authors are now embracing self-publishing,pod(print-on-demand)and marketing/networking and promotion of own work for control of content,sales and a greater profits over structured royalties and bonuses(advances)on proposed(not actual)sales.The possibilities are endless for writers/authors,and aspiring authors.There also are many authors now following independent/university presses to get into publishing,as well as forms to display writing skill as genres(novels(fiction,essays,short stories),non-fiction,poetry,etc.)in blogs,personal web sites,networking(facebook,twitter,you tube,etc,)that not only increases popularity and interests with readers,it gives an audience something genuine,unique,fresh and different to be expressed and peaks thoughts of those who partakes of it.So stand fast in talents,skill and efforts,continue to improve(read,edit and make changes),and step up to the floor.To be great,prepare to fail and make mistakes.No one ever became the best drooling over blank paper and making no effort to improve themselves.Writing(no matter how great),is always a work in progress,just waiting to leap off the page and say,"fantastic."
Wow, that's strange...Definitely inquire...
So, you work is not featured. All you can do is 1) nothing, or 2) trying to up-grade and resubmit it.
Have yet to finish profile.You'll see work when completed,be patient and wait.

Santa lives at the North Pole ...
JESUS is everywhere.
Santa rides in a sleigh ...
JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.
Santa comes but once a year ...
JESUS is an ever present help.
Santa fills your stockings with goodies ...
JESUS supplies all your needs.
Santa comes down your chimney uninvited ...
JESUS stands at your door and knocks, and then enters your heart when
You have to wait in line to see Santa ...
JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.
Santa lets you sit on his lap ...
JESUS lets you rest in His arms.
Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or
what's your name?" ...
JESUS knew our name before we did.
Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knows
history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads
Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly ... JESUS has a heart full
of love.
All Santa can offer is HO HO HO ...
JESUS offers health, help and hope.
Santa says "You better not cry" ...
JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you."
Santa's little helpers make toys ...
JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and
builds mansions.
Santa may make you chuckle but ...
JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.
While Santa puts gifts under your tree ...
JESUS became our gift and died on a tree.
Yes, Jesus is better, he is even better than Santa Claus
Merry CHRISTMAS!!!
