it's complicated
Today I got a call from Mecca. OK not the real Mecca, but the Assemblies of God Mecca-Springfield Missouri. "We have been approved to process". What does this Mean? Well it is complicated. For starters it means that our 200 page application was approved. WoW.
Now comes the waiting. And the processing
The next phase for us will be in August. Dave and I have to go to Springfield for personal interviews and medical exams. This is a 3 day process. If that goes well, and to be honest I am a little worried about Dave and the psych evaluation :>,
then we wait some more.
Then in October we would go for orientation and meet with the regional director for Latin America. This would be the final step in our application process. This is when we would be able to find out which assignment best matches with us and our family.
Then on November 9th, we would become an official canidate.
I was a little overwhelmed with it all today. I mean, who but God can help a family navigate through all of this?
Earlier today I was humbled once again as Dave got a phone call from the South Carolina Missions Director this morning telling him that his is praying for us. Having people we don't know call to let us know they are lifting us up in prayer is such a new thing.
Then the next phone call, from the National Department of Foreign Missions. In that phone call she said, that we were approved by the regional director for Latin America, Dick Nicholson.
Remember in grade school when they are picking teams for dodge ball, and you were picked first? that was kind of what it felt like today. Someone looked over my family and wanted us. Wow. overwhelmed and humbled.
This process is very complicated, but God seems to show us his path and plan in it all. I don't know when or how or where we will end up, but we will wait. We are chosen, and can't wait to be sent.
that is not complicated.
"how then can they call on the one they have not believed in? and how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? and how can they hear without somene preaching to them? and how can they preach unless they are sent?" Romans 10:14-15

Taken from international herald tribune.
By Rina Chandran Reuters
Published: August 28, 2008
MUMBAI: The twisted metal of smashed cars lining highways here is a grim testament to India's road toll, one of the worst in the world with about 100,000 people killed in traffic accidents last year.
As incomes rise and the economy rapidly expands, new cars and trucks pour onto Indian roads at an ever-increasing pace, squeezing into narrow, congested streets that were never designed for such a massive flow of traffic. Creaking infrastructure, poorly trained drivers and cars that lack basic safety features because of a preference for cheap, fuel-efficient vehicles are causing an already horrendous road toll to balloon.
And the toll is not just human. The World Bank estimates that every year road accidents cost India about 3 percent of its gross domestic product, which was more than $1 trillion in 2007.
"We're talking about a very serious issue here that also has huge economic implications," said Rajesh Rohatgi, a transport specialist with the World Bank in New Delhi.
Road accidents could become one of the biggest public health issues in India. The World Bank forecasts that by 2020, the death toll on roads will overtake deadly diseases like tuberculosis and AIDS.
In India, where roads carry almost 90 percent of all passenger traffic and 65 percent of all freight, the mortality rate is 14 per 10,000 vehicles compared with less than two per 10,000 vehicles in developed countries, the World Bank said.
It is easy to see why: Cars and motorbikes, many with four riders astride, share space on narrow roads with bicycles, three-wheeled rickshaws, trucks, buses, the odd bullock cart and pedestrians forced to walk on roads because of hawkers on sidewalks.
With few Indian cities enforcing basic requirements like seat belts, it is not unusual to see children sitting in the laps of adults in front seats, and overloaded buses with people balanced precariously on the steps or perched on the roofs.
Pot-holed roads, inadequate safety regulations, a lenient license system and a lax attitude toward drunk and underage driving are all blamed for accidents that kill an estimated 275 people every day.
But the biggest killer is arguably the growing numbers of vehicles using Indian roads that are incapable of supporting the massive volume of traffic, steered by drivers who lack basic skills.
It is a problem that is being seen in other developing countries with booming economies that are making cars affordable to the masses.
The World Bank estimates that the number of deaths from car accidents globally will rise to two million per year by 2020 from just over half that figure now unless more people are taught driving skills and road laws are better enforced.
The Indian Transport Ministry estimates that the number of annual fatalities from road accidents might climb to 150,000 by 2015 because of the rapid growth of vehicle ownership in India.
Annual sales of passenger vehicles in India are expected to nearly double to two million units by 2010 and sales of commercial vehicles could more than double to one million units.
Vehicle ownership has risen at an average rate of about 15 percent a year over the last decade, but road maintenance is underfunded, with only about a third of road needs being met.
"Unfortunately, we have no policy framework, and there are so many agencies involved with very little coordination between them," said Rohatgi, of the World Bank. "Blame must be shared equally at the institutional level, the engineering level and the consumer level."
The government plans to spend more than $500 billion over the next five years to upgrade its roads, ports, airports and other creaky and inadequate infrastructure. But often, not all the money that is earmarked for a project actually gets there due to corruption and poor governance. The result is substandard construction and poor road maintenance.
While loopholes in the system put licenses in the hands of those ill-equipped to drive, there is also a general apathy among consumers toward seat belts, air bags and motorcycle helmets.
"Safety is unfortunately not a big part of the purchase decision of Indian consumers," said Hormazd Sorabjee, editor of the Autocar magazine.
"Our best-selling small cars are typically not the safest vehicles on the road, because consumers are more worried about fuel efficiency and the cost of ownership, and would rather not pay for safety features such as air bags and anti-lock brakes."
Vehicle makers are trying to fill the breach left by the government by setting up driver training schools.
"We do believe the need for training is becoming increasingly relevant due to the increase in vehicle volumes, high speed roads, enhanced performance of vehicles, and the requirement of specific skills for application vehicles," said Debasis Ray, head of corporate communications at Tata Motors, the leading vehicle manufacturer in India.
The top passenger car maker in the country, Maruti Suzuki India, manages two training schools in Delhi with the state transport department. It has evaluated more than 400,000 clients, mostly commercial vehicle drivers, a spokesman said. It also runs about 35 driving schools along with its dealers and is setting up more.
Ford Motor is customizing its U.S.-based, teen-focused Driving Skills for Life program for drivers in developing auto markets including Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Hyundai Motor of South Korea has a student traffic volunteers scheme in New Delhi and Madras, while Tata Motors trains commercial vehicle drivers.
Courses for truck drivers are seen as particularly crucial, as a lack of trained heavy vehicle drivers may be holding back business activity in India by hampering the transport of goods across the vast country.
"As more cars are sold, there is a demand for more drivers," said Mohit Arora, managing director for India at J.D. Power Asia-Pacific. "Transporters also want drivers for commercial vehicles, where the need for training is perhaps most acute.
"Tata has struggled with the fact that during the boom there weren't enough experienced drivers, which can actually dent demand for trucks," he said.

Families often struggle to find the necessary medical, developmental, behavioral and social services to help their children develop to their full potential. Care coordinators help families overcome that challenge by connecting them to needed supports both inside and outside of a hospital setting. Connecticut Children's Center for Care Coordination (the Center) is a statewide leader in connecting families to the healthcare and community-based programs that can help their children thrive. Now, the Center is sharing its expertise with professionals from around the state through its 2nd annual Care Coordination Forum.
Our Care Coordination Forum will feature general sessions on how to strengthen families by enhancing protective factors proven to improve health outcomes; and the importance of using a two-generation approach to improve outcomes for low-income families. Additionally, six breakout sessions will highlight diverse community programs that address the physical and mental health of children and adolescents, including a presentation by Sandy Hook Promise.
Care Coordination Forum

This has been a decently hectic month. If we count the end of December, too, then it's REALLY been a ridiculous forty days. Let's recap.
+ Week before Christmas: the padre ends up in the Emergency Room and spends the next six-ish days in the hospital.
+ Week before Christmas: while he's there, Zoe freaks out because her favorite human isn't home and she can feel how stressed Mom is, so she starts going downhill fast. Not going to the bathroom, mini seizures, inability to walk. Not fun stuff.
+ Week before Christmas: Mom's going back and forth from the hospital about two times a day, I'm making trips out to the hospital every day, she and I have both gone with the dog to the vet a couple times, and I now get to clean the entire house on my own, in prep for #STSSWinterAdventure2014, since the parentals are busy with other things. Whoot whoot.
+ Christmas Day: the padre comes home that afternoon. Dog is super excited. Still stiff.
+ Week after Christmas: friendsies arrive, fun is had, adventure is sought, exploring is done. Good week. Dog is better. Padre is recovering pretty well. Mom is enjoying house being decently clean. (:
+ New Year's Eve: friendsies head back to SoCal. Within half an hour of their departure, I'm in pajamas, under the covers, about to take a nap. Typical ambivert-- playplayplay all week, hermit like mad to recover.
+ New Year's Day: lunch with Debrr. Girl leaves for the East Coast that night, so it was our only time to see each other. Love her.
+ January 2nd: Get-together at one of our high school teacher's house to meet her new baby. It's funny how nothing and everything has changed since we graduated. These people are my people.
+ First week of January: back to interning and volunteering per usual.
+ January 10th: on-campus interview for Samuel Merritt's OT program. {I'm debating whether to just recap the whole thing now or write a separate thing for this. Knowing me, I should probably just recap now. Okay}. Walked in, not too nervous because I just figured I'd do the best I could and if I got in, cool, and if I didn't, it wouldn't kill me. Then realized I was literally the only person in the entire room not wearing black. Stood out like a dog in a room of cats. Decided to ignore that, met a ton of cool people, wasn't sure how the interview part went. Shrugged and let it go.
+ Second week of January: interning and volunteering per usual. Got a call Friday that said decisions for Merritt will be sent out the following week. If I have any questions about the result, call so-and-so to talk about it. Didn't sound like I got in. Shrugged and let it go.
+ Third week of January: got an acceptance email. What. So confused. Seriously didn't know what to do. Decided to ponder it for a while, since I had ten days until the tuition deposit was due. Didn't tell anyone. Interned from home and had to call in sick to volunteering because I lost my voice the same day I got the email. Was offered a part time paid position with current internship. Had to think about it.
+ Fourth week of January: decided I can do this and that I am going to do this and I am going to excel at this {the OT thing, not the PT paid thing}. Since I was going to make this career switch, so to speak, there wasn't much point in my continuing with the current internship and it would be better longterm to get a full time temporary position for the next eight months, so I can earn some money before heading back to school. Hard decisions for the last week of internship, but decisions I could stand by.
+ January 28th: hung out with Janelle, found out one of our high school friends might've gotten into the program as well. Yay for knowing people!
+ January 30th: brought black bottom cupcakes and thank you cards and business cards to last day of internship. Was taken out to an excellent brunch by the team. Definitely going to miss these people. Said my goodbyes, exchanged hugs and thank yous, returned my key. Met Tommy outside, walked a BAJILLION blocks to the SOMA StrEat Food Park, had dinner. Went back to the Union Square/Market Street area and wandered. Got on different Bart trains and went our separate ways. Got home and paid the tuition deposit. No going back nowww.
+ January 31st/February 1st: hermitting like no other because I'm not leaving this house until I get my voice back.
So that's what's been happening around here and why I've been MIA recently. I've been compiling a list of pro's for doing OT instead of whatever the heck I was hoping to do before, so once I've got that written down, I'll probably share it here. With the influx of free time, I hope to finally complete and hit "Publish" on all the posts I've got as drafts right now. We shall see how that goes.
I've missed you all and I'm excited for the things ahead! Yayyy, let's do this, February!

Introduction to Computers
A computer is a multipurpose electronic device that can receive, process and store data. They are used as tools in every part of society together with the Internet. Computers nowadays are complex; there are a lot of different components inside them, and they all serve different purposes. They all need to work together for the computer to work; knowing how a computer works makes it easier to use a computer by being able to understand how a computer will respond.

text: This is the link to my Go Fund Me site. I am trying to raise money to help in my recovery. I want to be able to help others who are struggling, like I have been. The only way I can do that is to make sure I am on the Road to Recovery, myself. I am doing very well, but I still have a ways to go so I am asking for any assistance. I want, and need, to be able to continue in my treatment. I have come such a long way in the past 6 months I can't even believe it. I can also say that, as of this month, I haven't been in an inpatient or residential facility in 1 1/2 years. That is the longest I've ever been home, since the first time I was admitted as an inpatient in 2007. WOW!! Even just thinking about that makes me feel excited and motivated. I just want to keep going, so any help would me greatly appreciated.

One of Edward De Bono's recent books, although, like the others, it re-works a lot of the same ideas, and he spends a lot of the book self publicising himself and his achievements with various organisations that use his methods. I must admit, l was glad when l had finally come to the end of it.
If you want to find out about the GG3 (Greek gang of three), using PO (provocative operation), The Six Hat techniques (black is judgemental etc), Opreacy (not literacy or numeracy, but getting things done), plus more, 'Think! Before It's Too Late' is the book for you, as they are all within.
"You can analyse the past, but you have to design the future". Yawn.
He's obviously a clever guy, and does try to think of new ways to do things, but a lot of the book was just boring and repetitive, with plenty of mentions of other books by him that you can also buy.
Good luck to him if he is making a fortune out of this stuff, but he certainly shouldn't be treated as some kind of all knowing guru and just slavishly followed, as some people do.
Then again, what do l know? l'm just a poor uneducated scumbag.

I'm taking a little break from the Spring Cleaning series to announce some exciting news and something that is very special to me...
This May, May 10th to be exact, I will be hitting the monumental birthday that is 21. While some people might throw a huge party for this coming of age, I find it almost unfair. When I was 13 one of my close friends, Christopher, died due to complications from juvenile diabetes. I just can't seem to get fully excited about turning 21 knowing that he was robbed from experiencing it, so I've decided to celebrate my birthday in a different way.
I want to give my birthday away. I want to help find a cure for juvenile diabetes so that someday no child will ever have to worry about checking blood sugars or taking their insulin.
Type 1 diabetes is destructive to both children and to childhood. Controlling the disease requires 24/7/365 care. It includes eating a carefully calculated diet, checking blood glucose levels several times each day [by pricking a finger], and taking insulin injections - as many as six per day - or delivering of insulin through a pump just to stay alive. It means children and families living by the clock, day and night, for the rest of their lives—lives that turn out to average about 15 years less than normal.
This year, I'm asking for donations instead of gifts and cards. I've set up a donation page through the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation where you can track my progress and learn more about the event. I'm starting the fundraiser now and it will stay open until the end of May, by when I hope I will have raised $2,100.
I urge you to help JDRF and me with this fundraiser, every penny counts! Every bit of your donation will go towards research to find a cure for Type 1 diabetes. Even if you just help spread the word through Twitter, Blogging, or even simply clicking the Facebook "like" button on my fundraiser page it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your support!

Hey Allison, wow, first of, I can't believe you are only turning 21, awesome. Second, I'm so impressed with your eagerness to help such a worth cause. I personally don't know anyone effected by this terrible illness, but, can't imagine how terrible it could be.ReplyDelete
I'm going to help out girl, and I am so proud of you, I wish more people would be as unselfish as you, and give back, Im really touched.
Bella :)

text: Fluid buildup or edema can have nasty complications if you do not treat the developed issue immediately. Not only will your body feel heavier and movement be limited when you have this issue, but the resulting medical complications it the issue is not attended to immediately can be far graver, particularly if the developed water buildup covers a lot of area in the body. If you have such an issue, consulting your doctor would be the first thing to do. Once your doctor have full diagnosis of your issue, if he thinks you can medicate at home, he will prescribe you with furosemide 40mg, otherwise, he will require you to be confined at the hospital.

Dear Parent(s) and Guardian(s),
We continue to be proud of our students' EQAO results as an indicator of how well our students are performing and that they continue to close the gap from kindergarten to grade six. In reading and writing, grade six students improved 24% from their results in grade 3 with 76% of our students scoring at levels 3 and 4. There were 7 grade six students that performed at level 4 in Math. Your involvement in your child's schooling supports their learning and thinking. As well, research continues to verify how important nurturing a growth mindset is to supporting learning. This means that students see challenges and mistakes as opportunities for growth. In a fixed mindset student, he or she would see a mistake as a weakness and would not want to be exposed or ask questions that would lead to understanding the problem. Growth mindset students believe in themselves and know that if they have an open to learning stance they can do well in any area of learning. One way you can support a growth mindset is to praise your child for persevering when solving tough problems. Being resilient and having a strong work ethic are character traits that will help them be successful in life.

It was just incredible. The day after, we went sea kayaking around glaciers. I feel like I lost my breath consistently all day because the views were so unreal.
and GOOD NEWS! My mom, my brother, AND my dad and I are going to run the DISNEY half marathon in January, Lord willing! Isn't that so exciting??!
Since my last post, I saw several college friends during a little road trip though Arkansas, attended one of the most fun, happy weddings, worked the FCA camp at Mizzou, and saw "Wicked" at the Fox Theater in St. Louis.
I'm now working at Kanakuk K-7 and I'm on a 2-4 (24 hours off the leave Kamp and rest!)
Why working at K-7 is awesome:
~constant cheering "Ooo eee, we all live in teepees!"
~teaching classes like canoe, zip line, and soccer
~dressing up in goofy costumes
~dancing like a "K-rated" maniac at the parties
~kids say the coolest stuff!
~learning from the leadership, staff, and kids!!!
~always on the go
~rain doesn't stop K-7! everything continues like usual
~scripture is essential
~RELATIONSHIPS you build with kampers, your co, the staff, and leadership
~consistent energy and uplifting encouragement!
~ learning how to pray and pray constantly! and how little I do and how much God does.
on that last note...I would love to count any success and joy to own ability/personality. But here's the truth. God does it all. I will not show a single kamper Christ this summer, I will not bring a single one to the Lord. He will do it through me if that is His plan! My biggest job at Kamp is to let the Holy Spirit flow through me! I need God to make me soft to His will and work, instead of stubborn to what I want.
more good news: my God is PATIENT and He never gives up or tells me I'm too difficult. He is just so good, I want to know Him more and fall deeply deeply in love with Him. He is extreme, radical, faithful, awesome, unpredictable, patient, loving, constant. Hey yall? That's my God :)

The name Penny Fletcher will be greatly missed from the pages of this newspaper. Fletcher has been covering local news in the South Shore area since 1984. She began her freelance writing career at the Tampa Tribune for Frank Sargent's Outdoor section. At that same time she was writing fiction and nonfiction for national magazines and even for Amazon's forerunner to the Kindle — BookSurge — through the 1990s.
She has received at least 25 honors and awards from the Florida Press Association and the Community Papers of Florida organizations while covering news in the area.
Fletcher joined The Observer News family in 2007 and has been filling the pages with interesting news and features for the past 10 years.
Her favorite quote is: "One thing about my job is: You never know what's coming next. I've gone from having tea in a china cup at a multi-million-dollar mansion, to drinking coffee out of a corn can in a homeless camp. And I've learned something from just about everybody I've ever interviewed."
While Fletcher may be stepping away from the hustle and bustle of chasing news stories, she will continue to promote her books and editing services. She has three books available on Amazon now: Where The Wild Rose Grows, about a stolen native American girl who finds her true identity; The Sumerian Secret, a fiction based on fact about 5,000-year-old texts and ancient legends; and American Gestapo, a political book that works historically through the U.S. Constitution, the intent of the founders, and what could happen without constant vigilance by "normal, everyday people."
Her latest endeavor is writing family memoirs and having them professionally bound as keepsakes, along with her other editing services.
The decision to slow down from reporting was hastened a few months ago by a severe auto accident and its resulting surgeries.
Fletcher's writing will be greatly missed by all, as will her optimistic enthusiasm.

You want to know why preachers preach to the choir? Because they know who is guaranteed to show up every Sunday.
You know why Congresscritters say things that people in other parts of the country find bizarre and repulsive? Because their political futures don't rely on national elections. They're speaking to their constituents, who will either re-elect them or send them home, during the next election cycle.
Left-wing black Democrat Maxine Waters can say the most ridiculous things, such as:
"Guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal would be about socializing … uh, umm. … Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies."
"Policy, for the most part, has been made by white people in America, not by people of color. And they have tended to take care of those things that they think are important. Whether it's their agricultural subsidies, or other kinds of expenditures that are certainly not expenditures for poor people or for people of color. And so we have to band together and keep fighting back."
Oh, and…"I have to march because my mother could not have an abortion."
And, zero flips are given back home in South Central Los Angeles, her Congressional district. Remember the Rodney King riots? Yeah, it hasn't changed much. They LOVE her there, she's 78 and will stay in office until she eventually dries up and turns white, as feces of her particular hue tends to do when it assumes room temperature.
In contrast, liberals in blue states are stroking out over Congessman Steve King of Iowa's recent twitter statements in support of Dutch political candidate Geert Wilders.
"Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies."
Whoah, right?
Of course, Republican Party of Iowa Chairman (((Jeff Kaufmann))) publicly disagreed with Congressman King, and many other Republican establishment types cucked hard to the left and called him everything but a White man. One of them, a Mongoloid, tweeted out pictures of his two Chinese kids, others disavowed him, and instead of apologizing, at least so far, as we see so many celebrities and national figures do when they get called out for not being sufficiently politically correct, King did something different. He doubled down.
The Congressman said yesterday that he "meant exactly what I said".
"You cannot rebuild your civilization with somebody else's babies," King said in a CNN interview. "You've got to keep your birth rate up, and that you need to teach your children your values. In doing so, you can grow your population, you can strengthen your culture, and you can strengthen your way of life."
Of course, every White person who hasn't forgotten what the intent of our (exclusively White) Founding Fathers were for the United States when they said they were establishing it to secure the blessings of liberty for themselves and their progeny, and know what they wrote into law as the first definition of who could become a citizen of the United States, the Naturalization Act of 1790, are waiting to see if he'll break it down and cry for forgiveness. Based on the story's absence from today's controlled media news cycle, though, I'm betting that he won't. I'm betting that, like the consummate politician he is, King gauged the feeling of his voters back home pretty well. Caveat: Steve King is not the second coming of Adolf Hitler, and I'm not trying to imply that he's one of us. But he is tapping the pulse of his constituents, and they don't find anything controversial about what he said out in that flyover country, deeply red Iowa heartland.
The difference between what Maxine Waters can get away with saying, and what Steve King can get away with saying, no matter how much people outside their constituencies might flip out over them, reflects just how divided and polarized the country is, from one region to the next. That's because America is balkanizing, tearing apart at the seams, and headed towards a breakup into several ethnostates.
They say that if you want to know who it is that's really in charge, ask yourself who it is that you're not allowed to criticize. In our latter day America, that varies by a lot, from one emerging future nation-state to another.
Here's the takeaway from Steve King. No Congressman from Mississippi, or Alabama, or Georgia could say such a thing without it being considered political suicide. Nor could one from Oregon or Washington state. Since his comments are a direct reflection of the views of his voters back home, well…
If you want to know where New America, our coming White Nation, is going to be, ask yourself where the most reviled Congressman is from.
In other words, the fallout from Steve King's remarks directly supports and validates the forecast for America's future in my book 'The Balk'. Maybe Steve King has read it. Or maybe, instead of indulging in wishful thinking as some regionalists do, he's just a pragmatic politician who can wet his finger, stick it in the air, and see which direction the winds of change are blowing.
Outside of New America, the winds of change don't just blow, they suck. That's why so many Whites from the rest of the country are moving here. You should join them.
Now this is much more questionable, "I have to march because my mother could not have an abortion." So your are saying that your should never have been born. I suspect you are glad that you were born. If we take this to extreme humans would be extinct at one end and wars, crime, age, famine, and illness would define the length of life. A balance would be achieved. The democratic party position on abortion is closer to the first conclusion.
Now to congressman Steve King quoting Geert Wilder, "Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies." Actually Geert is not discussing adopting a baby and raising that child in a Dutch house hold and within a Dutch community from a baby. We know the result of this. We also know that a child under ten will adopt the community they grow up in. Examples in America are the children taken by American Indians. A chief of one of those nations was a captured boy.
What he is talking about is the introduction of immigrant families from cultures that are fundamentally in conflict with the Dutch culture. They bring with them a belief system. Islam is the immigrants that he is talking about. Muslims and Christians have been continuously at war from 730 AD to the present. Obviously for the conflict to be continuous there are unresolved differences in belief and have not and likely can not be resolved by the two cultures.
Geert Wilder is saying that the government has introduced conflict into the nation by violating the rights of the present citizen. This also has happened in America by our government.
The problem is that over the 8 years of Obama and especially since the passage of Obama Care democrats have lost over 900 seats in federal and state government in mostly flyover country. They are approaching a minor nation party if this continuous.
All of the conflicts they have raised to get back power has actually helped to decrease the number of people listening to them. They can hire protesters and commandeer woman and I am sure other groups. They do not tell the flocks of marchers what the organizes believe in because the crowds would vaporize.
What I can not understand why the GOP does not realize that they too are also a minor national party. Like the Democrats both leadership groups represent about 20% of the people that vote for their candidates. Health care is a very personal issue and it can not be hidden like other issues. That is why Obama Care ACA and now Ryan Care to be Trump Care AHCA are both so unpopular. AHCA will never get 61 votes in the senate so the first phase 1 and some regulation reform is all that will be achieved, Obama Care Lite. Unlike the GOP the Democrats in congress and the federal bench will oppose the Price regulations to prevent real change. It will be on a death spiral and the 2018 elections for go down the drain with health care. The mill stone of AHCA will be around the necks of the GOP candidates. The senate will be in control of the Democrats.
"At one point in target="_blank">Monday's interview, which was highlighted by target="_blank">CNN's "KFile," King and radio host Jan Mickelson began talking about Univision anchor Jorge Ramos and his recent appearance on Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight." King accused Ramos of always trying to "drive wedges between race and ethnicity" and suggested that the Latino journalist and activist was celebrating the fact that whites will lose their status as the racial majority by 2050.
"When you start accentuating the differences, then you end up with people that are at each other's throats," King said on Monday. "He is adding up Hispanics and blacks, who he predicts will be in greater number than whites in America."
Added King: "I am afraid the Hispanics and blacks will be fighting each other before that happens."
Now, the national Jewish controlled media is freaking out once again, because in one breath Steve King not only talked about Whites becoming a minority in the U.S. and Hispanic activists celebrating that brown future, he also brought up the biggest taboo subject of all for any elected official: race war is coming.

PNG landslide toll: 12 and rising
Police say at least 12 people have been killed in a landslide in Papua New Guinea's Southern Highlands.
The landslide hit early this morning.
Travellers were overnighting at a location on the Tagali river, at the western end of the province, when the landslip struck.
Already 12 bodies have been pulled from the rubble.
Assistant Police Commissioner Tony Wagaimbe says it is difficult to say how many people were in the area at the time.
"We are hopeful that relatives of people who went that way will come forward and say their relatives are missing," he said.
"We'll probably have a rough idea."
At least 70 people have been injured, some taken by helicopter to the Porgera Gold Mine for surgery.
Police and soldiers already in the province for elections will continue to assist in the rescue effort.

After Paris Climate Agreement, America Will
By Tom Cole
President Trump has come under fire recently because of his decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement. I believe he was right to do so. The agreement would have damaged the U.S. economy, eliminated millions of jobs, and drastically increased the cost of energy for American consumers. It also would have required the United States to shoulder the costs in a manner far disproportionate to the amount of greenhouse gasses we produce. Perhaps most importantly, the Paris Agreement was a treaty that should have been subjected to Senate ratification, yet former President Obama simply signed the agreement. More than likely because he knew that it could never pass the Senate, which the Republican Party controlled at the time

DETROIT -- About 1,000 people braved the rain, snow, and biting wind outside the home of the Detroit Tigers to secure individual game tickets for the upcoming season.
The Detroit News reported the faithful, frigid throng waited outside Comerica Park Friday to get a numbered wristband.
Officials then drew a number Saturday morning to see who would be first in line to buy the tickets.
Tickets also were available online and by phone.
Twenty-four-year-old fan Jarel France of Royal Oak said he thinks the recent acquisition of Prince Fielder will propel the Tigers to the World Series.
Marlins Ballpark: Thousands of fans are showing up to take a peek at the Miami Marlins' new ballpark and join the growing bandwagon for a team transformed by a winter spending binge.
The retractable roof was open Saturday, but the air conditioning was also on for the team's annual Fanfest. Salsa played in the plaza behind home plate. Beyond the outfield, fans gawked at the downtown skyline and the colorful subtropical sculpture that will go into motion when the Marlins hit a homer.
A Miami-style traffic jam clogged the concourse where players sat at autograph tables, and fans stood in line for an hour or more for a single signature.
The souvenir store bustled, with four jerseys on display, including those of newcomers Carlos Zambrano and Mark Buehrle.
Brewers/Axford: The Milwaukee Brewers renewed the contract of closer John Axford.
Axford set a team record with 46 saves last season and converted his last 43 chances in a row.
He was 2-2 with a 1.95 ERA in 74 appearances to help the Brewers win the NL Central.
The 29-year-old Axford struck out 86 in 73⅔ innings.
Milwaukee begins its exhibition season on Sunday against San Francisco.
A's/Cespedes: The Oakland Athletics and Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes have finalized their $36 million, four-year deal.
The 26-year-old Cespedes will be placed on the 40-man roster after the A's moved third baseman Scott Sizemore to the 60-day disabled list with a tear in his left knee that will sideline him for the season.
Cespedes played in Cuba's top league for eight seasons before defecting in 2011. He starred for Cuba in the 2009 World Baseball Classic, hitting .458 with two home runs, and five RBIs in six games.
Padres/Maybin: The San Diego Padres said they have reached a deal with Cameron Maybin that goes through at least 2016.
The 24-year-old Maybin was traded to the Padres in November, 2010, from the Marlins in exchange for two relief pitchers.
He was named the team's most valuable player in 2011 after he hit .264 with nine homers and 40 RBIs and stole 40 bases in a career-high 137 games.
The deal includes a team option for 2017. Financial terms were not disclosed.
"Cameron has certainly emerged as a core player," general manager Josh Byrnes said in a news release.
"During his time with the Padres, he has impressed us with his play and with his character. He has shown us that he is committed to the Padres, and we are happy to secure his rights through 2017."
Maybin would have been arbitration eligible after this season and eligible for free agency in 2016.

The southern Indian city of Bangalore was long known as the garden city, famed for its lush public parks and gardens, trees and hedges. But four years ago, it was renamed the garbage city, after it began drowning under mounds of rubbish. Some concerned citizens, however, are working to clean up the city, writes the BBC's Geeta Pandey from Bangalore.
On a Sunday morning, about two dozen young men and women arrive outside the Aishwarya Agate apartment complex in the JP Nagar district, armed with paint, buckets, brushes and rollers.
For the next few hours, these volunteers from the non-governmental organisation Youth for Parivarthan (Youth for Change) get busy, trying to beautify the wall across the compound.
Ugly fading pamphlets are peeled off, the grey wall is hosed clean with a jet of water, a coat of terracotta paint is applied, patterns are drawn with chalk and then painted over with fine brush-strokes.
"We did our first project in June 2014. There was a small children's park near my home, filled with garbage. It would stink all the time, everyone was complaining about it," he told the BBC. "So one day, I thought we should stop complaining and start acting."
Mr Amarnath and a few of his friends went and cleaned up the place. Then they painted the park walls and installed benches to dissuade people from throwing rubbish there again.
Bangalore is often described as the Silicon Valley of India. The city has witnessed rapid growth in the past two decades.
But along with that prosperity have come problems like traffic snarls and thousands of tonnes of daily garbage.
The city of 11.5 million people daily generates 8,000 tonnes of rubbish which is collected and transported to landfills outside the city, says Bharath M Palavalli of Fields of View, a non-profit which has been working to create awareness about Bangalore's garbage problems.
By law, this garbage should be segregated at source between wet food waste and dry recyclable waste like plastics and paper.
"Ideally what happens in Vegas should remain in Vegas," says market researcher and civic evangelist V Ravichandar.
"Garbage should be sorted and dealt with in the neighbourhood and only 15% should go to landfills."
But civic authorities have long followed the policy of collecting and transporting all the city's garbage to nearby villages instead.
The flaws of the policy became glaringly obvious in 2012 when garbage collectors went on a strike over a pay dispute with the civic authorities and the city began to drown in rubbish.
Mr Ravichandar describes what happened next as "a perfect storm".
"At the same time, one landfill was closed by the pollution control board for being environmentally hazardous, and another was shut down because local farmers protested.
"For two weeks, untreated waste was being dumped on the city streets daily. It had been drizzling for days and there were things putrefying," says Mr Ravichandar.
But that became the turning point for the city when it came to garbage management.
With more awareness, residents in many areas have now begun to segregate their garbage and dry waste collection centres have come up in several neighbourhoods.
"In areas where people are more aware and the residents' associations are strong, rubbish is getting picked up regularly and things have visibly improved," Mr Ravichandar says.
But many "black spots" remain in the city – and that's where groups like Youth for Parivarthan come in.
The wall across from the Aishwarya Agate apartment that the volunteers are beautifying today used to be a garbage dump until a few days ago.
For the past 14 years, resident Purushottam Joshi says every time he stepped out of the gates, he would be greeted by the stench of rotting garbage.
"We petitioned the local legislator, our MP, the district collector, even the police, but nothing happened. Now I'm very happy that these young men and women have done this wonderful work here," he says.
Home-maker Lavanya Shankar says she's "extremely happy" to see the "extremely clean" wall. "This is the street where we live, where our children play, and it's wonderful to see this change," she says.
Mr Amarnath says their reward is the appreciation they receive from the public.
"Initially we would spot places to fix, but now people write to us on social media, seeking our help. Earlier, people thought we were just jobless youth, with nothing to do. But ever since Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched his Swachch Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India Campaign), public support has been growing for us."
As the volunteers pose for a photograph in front of the finished wall, they say they know that their efforts are like "a drop in the ocean". But, as Mr Amarnath says, "every drop must count".
"If we want to see the change, we have to be more involved and aware. If we sit at home and think the government would do everything, then nothing would get done."

No we haven't been to Grandmas.
Bedtime is a difficult time of day at our house, but I always try and say "I love you" to the boys when I've said goodnight (sometimes through gritted teeth) The response is usually a snort or grunt or question about something desperately important in small boy world. Tigs in particular is not verbally expressive of affection. He shows his love in short sweet cuddles.
Last night went a bit differently:
"Goodnight Tigs, love you!"
"Love you mummy. Love you lots and lots"
"Love you lots and lots too!"
"Love you lots more than you love me mummy!"
"Oh? I love you to the moon and back Tigs" He is obviously not very impressed by this.
"I love you..... to GRANDMA'S and back, mummy!"
Top that, mummy.
(Grandma lives 60 miles away, and he finds the journey looong and tedious)
Speaking of the moon.
For my birthday Himself gave me a gift (that he insists hotly was NOT intended for him.) It's an attatchment so I can take pictures with his telescope using my camera.It was a little cloudy last night so we didn't get long, but this was my second attempt. Tried a few of Venus as well, and hoping to catch Saturn tonight!

"I am truly amazed at the results from their products. After installing their blanket and painting our home with their paint our utility bills went down 23% from the year before on a 3600 square foot home. Truly Amazing! Would highly recommend Energy Solutions of America to everyone. Great products sold and installed by great people."
"I'm writing to tell you the comfort level in our home increased to a level far beyond my expectations after we installed your CAT system. Our upstairs, which is where our master bedroom and home office are used to bake from early evening until late night because of the oven of stagnate heat in the attic above these rooms. We installed the CAT and our rooms became livable again, it was so nice that our bedroom was no longer a hot spot and we could enjoy reading a book in bed at night before going to bed. Next, the AC and Furnace. Our AC hardly ever runs, only on the hottest summer days in the 90s and the run times are much shorter. I've noticed on the indoor weather station my attic temp on these hot days is linear to the outside temperature and not 148 like it was the day you installed it. Same with heating the house in the winter, the house heats up much quicker and I'm running my furnace far less. Last but certainly not least, a recurring issue with mold spores appearing on the ceiling in our master bathroom near the shower no longer exist which is proof that ventilating and circulating the attic air in the winter helps prevent condensation mold. It feels really good to buy something and notice the value so quickly. In addition to this we are saving a lot of money from running our utilities less. I think your people really put the icing on the cake though, your sales rep was thorough and educational and your installer Leo did an outstanding job, he was very professional, courteous and clean. He finished his job in a timely manner. Thank you very much and thank everyone at Energy Solutions of America please. I'll keep the referrals coming
"Had attic blanket installed. Huge difference! Furnace runs a lot less! Unbelievable how much heat was lost into attic. Gas and electric consumption much less! I highly recommend everyone take a look at this. Great bunch of folks!"
"Great folks to work with. My budget billing went from $189.00 per month to $128.00 per month. I am very happy! "
"For over the last 15 years the temperature in the summer months at our restaurant has been uncomfortable for our customers as we could not keep our restaurant temperature consistently cool. This past summer we had Energy Solutions of America, Inc. install the energy blanket and almost overnight you could feel the temperature difference. Our savings has been more than expected and wuld recommend this blanket in your business or home. Thanks again ESA."

Many claim that without cooperation from China and India, global coordinated reduction in carbon dioxide emission is doomed.
It is true that China and India are large economies but the economy outside these two countries is large as well.
Suppose, say, 20% of the world's coal, petrol, and gas is in India and China. If the other 80% is subject to taxation or emissions trading then this will increase the price of energy even in China and India.
OPEC controls less than 50% of the world's oil and they have considerable influence on the price. If the rest of the world controls about 80% of the world's raw material then together they will have a lot of influence on the price, and high price is what reduces consumption and emissions.
If China and India do not cooperate, raw materials may be cheap in China and India but expensive around the rest of the world. Companies may move to China and India. However, this cannot continue forever. If the whole world depends on China and India for energy then the heavy consumption will eventually deplete resources in the two countries and then China and India will be reliant on importing energy at higher prices.
Currently China and India already have to import oil, natural gas, and coal.

5" NEL Coil - Sharp - for Garrett Ace Range
Hover over image to zoom
The Tesoro Lobo Supertraq was originally designed as a gold prospecting detector, at which it excelled. However it fast became apparent that it also excelled in another role, that one being that it was particularly sensitive to the smaller, older targets such as Celtic, Roman, Saxon and Medieval targets found in the UK and was destined to become one of the first of the new breed of high frequency detectors that are now much favoured these days.
As well as being a high frequency detector, the Lobo also has automatic ground tracking, 3 different ground condition modes and a pinpoint facility, allowing the detector to always maintain its optimum performance levels no matter where you detect.
The 11" x 8" wide scan coil fitted is ideal for all general purpose detecting situations; the Lobo is also very well supported with a range of accessory coils for areas where the right tool is needed for the job.

Locals especially children all are too familiar with the infamous story. Parents would often sway their kids from swimming on the deeper parts of the lake because of a belief that it is home to the previous residents of the lake. As the story goes, the lake was once a place called San Juan de Sagun, the Philippines' very own Sodom and Gomorrah.
Due to the materialism of its people that angered God, an earthquake sank the town thus, the birth of the lake. Up to this day, Ilocanos still believe that the fishes and creatures in the deepest part of the lake are decorated with earrings and crowns because these were ones the materialistic people of the vanished town.
Today, the story and mysticism add to the charm of the lake. The residents embraced its legend and the tourists who started discovering it soon followed. Now, it is home to hundreds of tourists, migratory birds, sports attraction and is the most prominent feature of this quaint town.
Just recently, the Paoay Lake is the venue for an international Olympic-style rowing regatta. With its placid waters, vastness and scenic beauty, these factors make it the perfect place for this kind of sporting event. Paddle boarding and wake boarding can also be done here in the near future.
Bird watching is also slowly becoming an attraction in Paoay Lake. Migratory birds visit the famous lake from far off countries. One of the recorded birds to fly here on record is the Great Cormorants from Russia. Sighting for this kind of duck bird is in November to December where it is winter in Russia. In these months, the lake is enveloped with hundreds of migratory birds that also attract bird enthusiasts and photographers from around the world.
Make sure not to miss this beautiful body of water once you head up north. The façade of the lake alone is well worth to Paoay, Ilocos Norte.

Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series Messier 106 (also known as NGC 4258) is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain in 1781. M106 is at a distance of about 22 to 25 million light-years away from Earth. It is also a Seyfert II galaxy, which means that due to x-rays and unusual emission lines detected, it is suspected that part of the galaxy is falling into a supermassive black hole in the center.

It's hard to pick a highlight of our
Travelworld tour to the Tuscany area
of Italy. Each day brings new wonders!
Today our group road one of the most
modern highways we've ever seen with
tunnels a mile or more long carrying us
through mountainsides only to come out
the other side looking a fields of grape
vines an olive trees just off the roadway.
Our destination was Venice, And
you don't actually get their by bus! Once
you're close you board a water taxi that
carries you past classic buildings to a
dock in the city of canals and small
bridges. We became part of the estimated
50,000 tourists who come each year to
see places like the Piazza San Marco.
I figured it was a good place to have
pizza so my wife and I stopped at a small
restaurant for lunch. She had some sort of
a healthy fruit and ham concoction. But
I opted for my pizza. It wasn't bad! But
it also wasn't cut! We're all used to getting
a usually round pie cut into 6 or 8 slices.
I got the pizza and a knife. I didn't
have to speak Italian to realize the
cutting would be up to me! I managed.
Then our group boarded a number
of classic gondolas for a fantastic ride
on a few of the city's canals. One of
the vessels included an extremely
talented tenor who serenaded us as we
cruised along! It doesn't get much more
romantic than that!
Hope I get my land legs back for
tomorrow's touring and that all your
NEWS is good!
