With Joyfulness and Gladness of Heart: Deuteronomy 28.47-48
{Preached at Heritage Presbyterian Church 3 August 2014. Listen here}
In my morning devotional reading a few weeks back, I was reading through Deuteronomy 28. It is the portion of God's story where he tells his people that there are rich blessings awaiting them as they will faithfully obey the voice of YHWH their God and are careful to do what he tells them ("if you faithfully obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth"28.1). But that there are also adverse circumstances – curses – lurking around the corner if they chose to turn their back to him and follow their own way ("if you will not obey the voice of the LORD your God or be careful to do all his commandments and his statutes that I command you today, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you"28.15).
It was here, in this segment on the curses, when the following two verses popped out of the page and slapped me:
47Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things, 48therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the LORD will send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nakedness, and lacking everything. And he will put a yoke of iron on your neck until he has destroyed you.
I realize that at this point you are likely to tune out and turn off. It sounds so gloomily negative, and creepily burdensome. But before you hit the off-button, or click to another channel, take a moment to reflect with me on the positive point pumping through these verses.
We need to see that what God wants is a joyfulness and gladness of heart in our life as Christians. It's fairly simple, but easily missed. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is not seeking a soul-wearying obedience that just guts it out. "Because of the abundance of everything" he has poured out on us – things that we are not entitled to, nor deserve – he wants us to be happily grateful and joyfully thankful.
Most parents I know don't want a slavish compliance from their kids. They set down house rules and family standards for the health, wellbeing and success of everyone involved. The conflicts often come when kids and teens either outright resist and counter those rules, or sullenly and grumpily comply. Parents are consternated because those simple directions are for everyone's benefit and continued health. In fact, several specific "regulations" are in place because of "the abundance of all things." The parents are perplexed and aggravated since they don't understand why their kids can't see the value and profit of these liberty-shaped, prosperity-enhancing, health-boosting codes. "Why, it's as plain as the nose on your face" And the kids are bent out of shape because they often feel that these parental-procedures are nonsensical and offensively oppressive. "Why should I clean my room? Come on! That pile of clothes in the corner, rumbled bed-sheets on my bed, and overflowing trashcan with candy wrappers should be someone else's responsibility! I'm too busy playing my video game-reading my book-watching my music video-texting my friends! Sheesh!" I've been on both sides of this tiff, as I suspect many of you have. When I look back on myself as a kid and as a teen, I blush dark red.
You get the picture. That is what is going on in these verses. "Obedience" is actually enjoying God's redemptive liberation, living out his health-sustaining emancipation, swimming in the bounty of his love-rich "code of conduct" – serving "the LORD your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things." To see this, observe that the Ten Commandments don't begin with laws, but a rehearsal of God's redemptive work, "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery" (Exodus 20.1 and Deuteronomy 5.6). In essence God is saying something like: "I am the God who has emancipated you, set you free from a bondage you were powerless over and helpless under. So, now that I've set you free, here are the ten aspects of how freed people live!" And so, rightly ("It's as plain as the nose on your face!"), YHWH points out that our attitude should be plush with joy and gladness - serving "the LORD your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things."
But verse 48 subtly points out that the lack of gratitude in walking with God and enjoying his liberation comes from bowing down to other gods. Joylessness and ungratefulness in our Christian walk have more to do with idolatry than incidents! Joylessness has less to do with our circumstance, and more to do with our reverence. We are joyless in God's lavish love, because – like when many of us were adolescents – we're so absorbed in in our own pleasures and pursuits (actually, overly absorbed in ourselves) that we can't stand any interruptions to our self-worship. We may want God's liberty, but we don't want his logic that goes with it. And so God promises that if we will not enjoy his liberty because of our own self-interest, self-adoration, self-seeking, then we will be given what we seek – our enslavement, with all of its impoverishment.
I know that all of this sounds, at first, rather harsh. But if you've ever raised children, or ever had to deal with someone chemically addicted, or living a self-destructive lifestyle, you know that the time comes when you may just have to allow them to crash and burn. And it breaks your heart! And there are plentiful times that God's own heart is "broken" over his children, "…how I have been broken over their whoring heart that has departed from me and over their eyes that go whoring after their idols" (Ezekiel 6.9).
The point is clear: God wants the positive side of all this, not the negative! He wants us to be filled with joy and gladness in our walk with him, "for the abundance of everything" – for the abundance of his providential care, the abundance of his lavish love, the abundance of his redemptive-liberating work in Jesus Christ, etc. And he delivers that joy, if we will but turn our backs to our self-idol and seek him as he is found in Christ.
"For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" (Romans 14.17).
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope" (Romans 15.13).
"Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen" (Jude 24-25).
It would be quite fitting at this point for us to ask ourselves, am I serving "the LORD your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things."

How's this for an eye-opening development: With the MLB trade deadline reportedly less than two weeks away, the Boston Red Sox sent a "high-level scout" to Thursday's high-profile showdown between Madison Bumgarner and Noah Syndergaard in San Francisco, according to MLB Network's Jon Morosi.
But before you dream of Bumgarner or Syndergaard in a Red Sox uniform, check out Morosi's full report from Friday morning:
#RedSox had a high-level scout watching the Madison Bumgarner-Noah Syndergaard matchup in San Francisco last night. It is possible that #SFGiants relievers were the primary focus of that assignment. @MLB @MLBNetwork— Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) July 19, 2019
Morosi suggests the scout at Thursday's Giants-Mets game may have been focusing on San Francisco's relief pitchers instead of the two aces that started the game.
Tops on that list is All-Star closer Will Smith, a 30-year-old left-hander who may be the Giants' most coveted asset outside Bumgarner.
The Red Sox obviously need bullpen help, and while the team is intent on converting Nathan Eovaldi to closer, it makes sense that the scouting department would do its due diligence on available relievers in case that experiment goes awry.
Outside Smith, San Francisco also has some decent middle relievers in right-hander Sam Dyson (.935 WHIP over 46 innings) 24-year-old Reyes Moronta (59 strikeouts in 43.1 innings) and lefty Tony Watson (5.80 strikeout-to-walk ratio).
Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski may have to further deplete an already thin farm system to make another move before the July 31 deadline, but it appears Boston is at least kicking the tires on what's out there after bringing in starter Andrew Cashner last week.

About the show
Based on the Biblical myth, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat follows the titular favoured son of Jacob as he is sold into slavery by his envious brothers. Possessing only the splendid multi-coloured coat gifted by his father, Joseph embarks on an inspiring journey to return home.
With instantly recognisable songs including "Any Dream Will Do" and "Close Every Door To Me", legendary collaborators Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice (Jesus Christ Superstar; Evita) deliver an epic musical that remains internationally beloved. Its many accolades include Tony and Olivier Awards, a reality talent competition to find a new star, and performances in over 80 countries.
The show is a traditionally starry event, with actors including Donny Osmond and Phillip Schofield performing in the lead role. For the Palladium's 2019 production, former Joseph Jason Donovan played the Pharaoh and Sheridan Smith featured as the Narrator. Newcomer Jac Yarrow assumed the legendary coat, earning critical acclaim for his professional and West End debut.
Casting for the 2020 revival of Joseph at the London Palladium is yet to be announced, although it has been confirmed that Jac Yarrow and Jason Donovan will return in their respective roles at least for a limited time.
Much of the creative team from 2019 returns, including director Laurence Connor (Miss Saigon), choreographer Joann M. Hunter and set and costume designer Morgan Large.
Featuring impressive sets, bold costumes and heart-stopping songs, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at the London Palladium was a sold-out hit in 2019 and is likely to dazzle in 2020. Catch this strictly limited season when its doors re-open on 2 July 2020.
Recommended forFans of Lloyd Webber and Rice's musicals should add tickets to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat to their theatre wish list. It's also a great introduction to musicals for families.
Age Recommendations: Children under 3 will not be admitted. Please be advised that children under the age of 16 may be refused entry if they are not sitting next to an accompanying adult.

Inflammation is a major danger behind heart disease. Antioxidants reduce inflammation. This is why they play such a crucial role for heart health.
Mother Nature provides a wide variety of dietary antioxidants. The single most studied of these is a group of substances called polyphenolics. A 2013 review of the heart health benefits of polyphenolics confirmed their role in reducing the incidence of cardiovascular disease.
One of the stars of the show in that review was green tea (Camellia sinensis). Green tea contains a rich array of polyphenolics, including perhaps the greatest herbal antioxidant of all, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate).
More recently, a 2016 study in the British Journal of Nutrition showed that polyphenolics in a number of herbs, including green tea, protect against the age-related production of inflammatory hormones. Once again, green tea was one of the top anti-inflammatory herbs.
Many Roles of EGCG for Heart Health
More than 5,000 research articles about EGCG are listed on PubMed, the online medical database of the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Studies of this powerful antioxidant continue to reveal its multiple modes of action for cardiovascular benefits.
Four of its most important attributes for heart health include:
- As an antioxidant, EGCG reduces the effects of reactive oxygen species that can damage blood vessel walls.
- EGCG inhibits the enzyme, cyclooxeengase-2 (COX-2), which drives the production of highly inflammatory hormones that cause pain. In so doing, it mimics the actions of prescription drugs such as Celebrex and over-the-counter painkillers such as Ibuprofen.
- EGCG activates an enzyme that catalyzes the production of nitric oxide (NO) in blood vessel walls. Boosting the levels of arterial NO causes arteries to relax and open up for better blood flow.
- EGCG is now thought of as a promising therapeutic for combating cardiovascular complications associated with obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes.
Although this is only a partial summary of the benefits of EGCG for heart health, they point to green tea as the number one herbal antioxidant for heart health.
How to Increase Your EGCG Intake
Green tea is a great source of EGCG and other polyphenolics. However, drinking several cups of green tea every day might be inconvenient. It may even be unappealing if you prefer coffee as your morning wake-up beverage.
If you prefer other teas made from Camellia sinensis, you would have to drink even more. Green tea contains more than 7 grams of EGCG per 100 grams of dried leaves. However, in the same amount of dried leaf material, white tea contains a little over 4 grams and black tea less than half of that amount.
Polyphenolic content of different teas also varies according to where the plants are grown and how old the leaves are when harvested.
All this just means that getting enough EGCG in your diet depends on supplementation. The simplest thing you can do is take a supplement that contains green tea extract. No fuss, no muss.
Boosting your EGCG intake with a green tea supplement is a more reliable and convenient way to get enough of this and other polyphenolics that enhance your heart health.

The electrical resistance of an electrical element is the opposition to the passage of an electric current through that element; the inverse quantity is electrical conductance, the ease at which an electric current passes. The SI unit of electrical resistance is the ohm (Ω), while electrical conductance is measured in siemens (S).
An object of uniform cross section has a resistance proportional to its resistivity and length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. All materials show some resistance, except for superconductors, which have a resistance of zero.
The resistance (R) of an object is defined as the ratio of voltage across it to current through it, while the conductance (G) is the inverse.
For a wide variety of materials and conditions, V and I are directly proportional to each other, and therefore R and G are constant (although they can depend on other factors like temperature or strain). This proportionality is called Ohm's law, and materials that satisfy it are called "Ohmic" materials.
In other cases, such as a diode or battery, V and I are not directly proportional, or in other words the I–V curve is not a straight line through the origin, and Ohm's law does not hold.
In the hydraulic analogy, current flowing through a wire (or resistor) is like water flowing through a pipe, and the voltage drop across the wire is like the pressure drop which pushes water through the pipe.
The voltage drop (i.e., difference in voltage between one side and the other), not the voltage itself, is the driving force pushing current through a resistor. In hydraulics, it is similar: The pressure difference between two sides of a pipe, not the pressure itself, determines the flow through it. For example, there may be a large water pressure above the pipe, which tries to push water down through the pipe. But there may be an equally large water pressure below the pipe, which tries to push water back up through the pipe. If these pressures are equal, no water will flow.
The resistance and conductance of a wire, resistor, or other element is generally determined by two factors: geometry (shape) and materials.
Geometry is important because it is more difficult to push water through a long, narrow pipe than a wide, short pipe. In the same way, a long, thin copper wire has higher resistance (lower conductance) than a short, thick copper wire.
Materials are important as well. A pipe filled with hair restricts the flow of water more than a clean pipe of the same shape and size. In a similar way, electrons can flow freely and easily through a copper wire, but cannot as easily flow through a steel wire of the same shape and size, and they essentially cannot flow at all through an insulator like rubber, regardless of its shape. The difference between, copper, steel, and rubber is related to their microscopic structure and electron configuration, and is quantified by a property called resistivity.
Resistance can be affected by materials natural with regards to resistance… ohmic or not ohmic…. its relation to frequency… does it increase or decrease in resistance in relation to frequency… its shape… shape can affect higher or lower resistance… and temperature does it increase or decrease resistance in relation to temperature.

Britain is now fighting a war it dares not name. The recent failed car bomb attacks on a London nightclub and Glasgow airport demonstrated once again that Britain is a principal target for al-Qaeda. But even now, the British response is dangerously confused.Phillips concludes by warning that Britain faces grave peril:
After eight people in the medical profession were arrested over these attacks, there was widespread shock that those who cure should also want to kill. This naive and ahistorical reaction demonstrated yet again the extraordinary state of denial about the Islamist jihad. After all, Osama bin Laden's sidekick, Ayman al-Zawahri, is a doctor. So are other Islamist terrorists, including Mahmoud Zahar, the Hamas strongman in Gaza.
But because the deeply empirical British do not understand how religious fanaticism twists the human mind, they tell themselves that Islamic terrorism must be driven by rational grievances such as deprivation, "Islamophobia" or British foreign policy.
Many continue to believe that Britain is a target because of its involvement in Iraq. While the war is undoubtedly used to whip up hysteria in the Muslim world, the irrationality of believing that it is the cause of Islamic terror is clearly demonstrated by the fact that British Muslims who have been jailed for terrorist offenses were recruited even before 9/11. Al-Qaeda is also heavily engaged in places such as Indonesia or Africa, which have no connection to Iraq or the Middle East.
In Britain, all these grievance excuses are wearing very thin, thanks to the recent emergence of former jihadists who have renounced their extremism.
Ed Husain, in his book The Islamist, and another former radical, Hassan Butt, have made the case that the doctrines to which they once subscribed are rooted in nothing other than a fanatical desire to Islamize the world.
But while these courageous people are telling Britain that, far from being motivated by despair, Islamist terrorists kill as an act of religious exultation, the new prime minister, Gordon Brown, has banned his ministers from using the word "Muslim" — and presumably "Islamic" or "Islamist" — in connection with the terrorist crisis. He has also put an end to the phrase "war on terror...."
Brown's failure of nerve is being reflected in the USA, too.
Despite President Bush's aggressive rhetoric about the "war on terror," he has in fact fluctuated wildly over identifying religious fanaticism as the central driver of the problem. After 9/11, he said "Islam is peace." And although for a period he started referring to "Islamic extremism" and even "Islamo-fascism," he recently sounded a full retreat when he appointed an American special envoy to the deeply Islamist and anti-western Organization of the Islamic Conference. With such an instinct on both sides of the Atlantic to appease Islamist fanaticism, the "war on terror" becomes an empty sound bite as the West advertises its weakness to the enemy.
Britain has never been in a more dangerous position — not just because of terrorism but because, faced with an enemy whose platform is the decadence and weakness of the West, it is going out of its way to prove the terrorists right.I hope her message gets a good hearing on both sides of the Atlantic.

Won game, not showing on final score
This happens occasionally in Freecell as I've mentioned. Here's a screenshot of a game won around 21:40:50 CDT. https://greenfelt.net/freecell?game=729704587
Again today, won Freecell & don't show up on the scoreboard after the win. 16:49 or so CDT. https://greenfelt.net/freecell?game=1405241045
Think I know what's happening. I must somehow be hitting Give Up. That reproduces these symptoms.
david REGISTERED, GLOBAL_MODERATORS, ADMINISTRATORS
That is entirely possible. Once you've "given up" then the score is submitted for that game—you can continue playing but nothing you do past then counts.
New data point. Just won this game ( https://greenfelt.net/freecell?game=836755792 ) and the screenshot shows the resulting marquee. I'm not present and the total number of plays to date isn't shown. This time I definitely did not hit Give Up.
Another: Just won https://greenfelt.net/freecell?game=1671003657 and here's the screenshot: I'm not listed and the total plays is missing.
aps REGISTERED
This is exactly what I see if I hit "Undo" before starting game. See my post "Game score not added to leader board after undo"
You mean after winning a game? I don't see exactly that. After a win if I call for a new game, but hit Undo before making a move, on the resulting screen I can still see my won status & stats for the previous game by hitting High Scores. What am I missing?
aps REGISTERED
No. This happens every time if I hit "New game" one or more times, then "undo", and then play that game and either win or "give up."
Hmm, that may be the pattern. Just happened again with https://greenfelt.net/freecell?game=886058396 and IIRC I did accidentally hit a bunch of Now Games before rewinding to play one.

This is one of my favorite salad dressings. I don't know how many times I made this, but I never get tired of it. It doesn't contain any oil other than the oil from tahini and is very low in fat (about 35 calories per tablespoon). It certainly beats commercial salad dressings that contain a lot of dubious ingredients!
5 Tbsp tahini
1 Tbsp miso or tahini
3 garlic cloves
1 inch-length ginger
1 Tbsp tamari soy sauce
3 Tbsp rice vinegar (I used brown rice vinegar)
2 tsp sake (optional)
1 Tbsp maple syrup
7 Tbsp water
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp hot chili paste (optional)
- Peel and slice garlic and ginger.
- Place all the ingredients in the food processor or blender and process until the dressing becomes smooth and creamy.
- Add more water if needed.
- Infuse love and serve with your favorite green salad.
Yield: 1 cup

At Nintendo's Direct today, we got an announcement trailer for Empire of Sin, a strategy-based game set in the criminal underground of Chicago. In this 1920's era setting, you'll slowly grow a criminal empire, taking over the streets and increasing your influence. Players will be able to choose from one of fourteen different characters as they work to become the true leader of the underground. With randomly generated starting conditions, you'll have to overcome everything thrown at you.
- Build A Crime Empire: Raise your criminal empire from the ground up in several seedy enterprises (be it speakeasies, union skimming, or casinos) and building a team of loyal mobsters to make your mark on the streets. Once you make a name for yourself, expand your influence by taking over rival territory and adding more ventures to your repertoire.
- Defend and Expand Territory: If it comes to blows (hypothetically, of course) and your posse needs to send a message, face off in brutal turn-based combat. Recruit your goons strategically to build a strong chemistry within your crew to maximize combat damage and help secure your hold on the city.
- Explore a Living, Breathing City: Explore the streets of vibrant 1920s Chicago and interact with a full cast of living, breathing characters, each with lives of their own that inform how they react to what you do (or don't do). Schmooze, coerce, seduce, threaten, or kill them to get your way.
- Wield Your Influence:Make and break alliances, bribe cops, and trade on the black market to gain an edge and expand the influence of your crime family. Always keep your enemies close and ensure you have a mole on the inside and eyes everywhere.
- Pursue Multiple Victory Strategies: Whether you make it to the top with violence, business smarts, or city-wide notoriety, there are a number of ways to become King or Queen of Chicago. With various starting conditions and constantly changing crew dynamics, no two playthroughs will ever be the same.
Empire of Sin is set to release in Spring 2020 on PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PS4. We've got a fair amount of time before we get to head back to the roaring 20's, but until then, be sure to check out the trailer above and stay tuned to Gaming Trend for more E3 news.

Cape: Topshop, Sweater: sold out (similar by Halogen), Blouse: J. Crew (old), Mittens: home made— similar to these Kate Spade, Neck bow: vintage from my grandma (but similar here), Earrings: Kate Spade, Handbag: Kate Spade, Leggings: Hue, Boots: (old by Sam Edelman) but similar here by Rebecca Minkoff
I hope your Christmas was as happy as ours! We had a super fun time at my parents' house where we played with Kota (our sweet pup) on the lake and hung out with my siblings. We also did a gift exchange with the hubby's family where my super sweet mother-in-law gave me this Topshop cape because she noticed my belly is getting too big for my usual coat! Embarrassing. But I truly love this cape she picked out for me because it is so easy to put on and it'll fit no matter how big this little one gets.
These boots are my favs. I saw them a few years ago from Piperlime and absolutely had to have them. I call them my Carrie Underwood boots because they remind me of something she would wear, but they are really difficult to match to an outfit. I usually pull them out at New Years (and sometimes Christmas) because the studs (and spurs) make them really difficult to match to an outfit. So this year I plan to wear them out on New Years with a more casual outfit like this sweater + legging combination. Do you have any special New Years outfits?
Tip: Wear statement pieces like these boots with a very limited color palette & simple pieces to keep them looking classy– not gaudy.
Have a great day!

Cement Mill
Cement Mill Brief Introduction
Cement mill, also called cement grinding mill plant, is used for grinding raw materials of cement in the cement grinding process.A cement mill is the equipment that used to grind the hard, nodular clinker from the cement kiln into the fine grey powder that is cement. Most cement is currently ground in ball mills.
Cement clinker is usually ground using a cement ball mill. This is essentially a large rotating drum containing grinding media - normally steel balls. As the drum rotates, the motion of the balls crushes the clinker. The drum rotates approximately once every couple of seconds.
Grinding systems are either 'open circuit' or 'closed circuit'. In an open circuit system, the feed rate of incoming clinker is adjusted to achieve the desired fineness of the product. In a closed circuit system, coarse particles are separated from the finer product and returned for further grinding.
This cement ball mill is mainly used in grinding cement finished products and raw materials and also suited to metallurgical, chemical, electricity etc. and other industrial mining enterprises. It could also be used to grind various ore materials and materials that is grindability.
Cement Mill Working Principle
This cement mill machine has two warehouses. The cement mill grinder runs along the outside gear. In the cement mill, the materials spirally and evenly enter the first warehouse along the cement mill input hollow axis. In the warehouse, there is a ladder scale board or ripple scale board. The steel balls of different specifications are installed in the scale board of the cement mill. When the barrel body rotates, centrifugal force is produced. At the same time, the steel balls are carried to a certain height and then fall to grind and strike the materials. After being ground coarsely in the first warehouse, the materials then enter the second warehouse of for further grinding. In the end, the powder will be discharged.
- Strong adaptability;
- Continuous produce;
- Broken rate large;
- Easy to adjust the product grinding fineness etc;
- It can not only produce with wet type, but also grind and dry simultaneously.

Cure JM Foundation 2018 National Fundraiser
Cure JM families Raise Over $83,000 for JM Research
The 2nd Annual Walk Strong to Cure JM™ D.C. was Cure JM's first charity walk across a state line. Hundreds of people walked from the Key Bridge Marriott in Arlington, VA, across the Key Bridge into Washington, D.C., and back.
The walk coincided with a heatwave, but despite the warmth, the families enjoyed music, yard games, face painting, and were entertained by a DJ, a Washington Nationals mascot, and superheroes like Batman.
Conference attendees walked alongside local D.C./MD/VA Chapter supporters to raise funds for important Myositis research. Through the generosity of several individuals and walk teams, donations totaling more than $83,000 will go towards research to find a cure. Thanks to everyone who raised funds, and those that donated.
Walks are crucial to Cure JM. Nearly all funds raised by our organization comes from family fundraisers, which include walks.
We are grateful to so many people who came together and made the DC Walk a lifelong memory. We would like to thank the D.C. Walk Committee for their time and organizing the event. Thank you to all the volunteers who helped with everything from the refreshments, to the making sure the walkers all safely crossed on to the bridge. Thank you to Dr. Steven Ray Mitchell, who served as Walk Medical Chair, and for the expert care he provides several local are kids living with JM. Thank you to the volunteers who inflated red Cure JM balloons, handed out bubble wands, and sold kid's crafts for donations toward the cause. Together, we made a difference.
Cure JM Foundation launched its Walk Strong to Cure JM™ program in 2016. At these events, Cure JM families, friends, neighbors, and other supporters in the local community band together to raise money for JM research through a family-friendly fundraising walk. These family fun festivals also help to raise awareness of JM in communities across the nation.

Some good news for Friday - industry researcher VentureOne has released data showing that the median valuation for a start-up life science company went up in 2004 from $10MM to $13MM (that value being the value of a company prior to receiving venture capital).
Venture One's explanation for this was more capital being available as well as a fairly finite number of "promising investment opportunities." That's to be expected, though - as the investors get savvier about the industry and what really has a shot, they are going to narrow the field of potential ideas.

21 Feb 10 Fun Ways to Improve Employee Morale
As a manager or a business owner, you should always be looking for ways to improve employee morale. It is important that your team works well together and enjoys what they do. If you are passionate about your business, that passion should spread to your employees and your company culture should motivate them to success.
Enjoying what you do and the people you do it with can make all the difference in the company. Below are are some ideas for making the workplace more fun.
1. Picnic O'Potluck
There are many different and fun ways to turn a regular work day into something special. Celebrate your team's diversity with everyone bringing in their favorite family dish. If your team likes to heat things up with competitions, host a chili cook-off luncheon, or something as simple as a holiday cookie exchange. A little goes a long way in improving employee morale, and can spice up an office afternoon. You could even host a themed potluck once a month: January Healthy Recipes, February Dessert Samplings, and May Memorial Barbeque, just to name a few. Once you get them started, your team can design the themes to fit their style.
2. Heart Healthy Team Building
It might seem small, but little steps can make a big difference. Get your team to go for a walk around the office park or even walk to the lunch place down the street instead of driving. A chance to get out of the office and get some fresh air is a great way to build some healthy minds and bodies. Researchers at the University of Birmingham, in conjunction with some other universities, looked at office workers who took lunchtime strolls. They found that on the afternoons when the office workers took lunch time strolls, they were "considerably more enthusiastic, less tense and generally more relaxed" for the rest of their work day. See who can get the most steps in a day with a workplace step challenge. All you would need are simple pedometers to get started.
3. Change of Scene
A quick look around the office and you might see everyone seated at their desks, typing away at their computers, not really taking time away from those glowing screens. Jazz up the workplace with things that might spark some new ideas. Consider investing in a convertible desk that allows your team members stand while working. Some offices even have treadmill desks to encourage walking. Adding greenery to the office space can also go a long way. A little potted plant, water, and a sunlight is all you need. Greenery in the office can help make the office feel less sterile and more welcoming, and some plants even are proven to help purify the air. Check out these hard to kill plants that will improve your office scenery.
4. Office Olympics
Any game can be turned into an office-friendly competition to boost employee morale. This would be great to break up the daily routine and create a moment of fun and excitement. In addition to boosting teamwork and morale, mini breaks in the work day can help get those creative juices flowing. Check out some easy ideas from Pinterest to get some great minute-to-win-it challenges that will boost employee morale. You can use simple items you find around the office or maybe set aside a few minutes out at the park for a quick round of hoops.
5. A Simple Note
Acknowledgement of good deeds goes a long way to build confidence, increase productivity, inspire creativity, and improve employee morale. You don't have to wait until staff reviews! Let your employees know that going the extra mile made a difference. A simple note or verbal appreciation can make a tremendous difference in office morale.
6. Volunteer Days
Doing good and helping others is a great way for a team to strengthen and feel positive about why they are working hard. According to the 2011 Deloitte Volunteer IMPACT Survey of employed adults ages 21-35, millennials who frequently participate in workplace volunteer activities are nearly twice as likely to be very satisfied with the progression of their career.
This can be an office outing, or it can even be expanded to include family and friends where all hands are needed to make a difference. Is there a local organization your company can volunteer at, a program you can start up, or a local race your company can participate in?
If planning just the right day or event is challenging, try looking at Make A Difference Day. Make A Difference Day is a national day of service. Join teams all across the country on October 28, 2018 to volunteer together. Remember that your employees are pulled in many directions, so having something charitable that the whole company can do creates strong bonds.
7. Blue Plate Specials
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream. If it's hot outside, consider bringing in ice cream in the afternoon. Who wouldn't want to grab a creamsicle before heading back to their laptop? If your group likes things spicy, cater lunch from a local Indian restaurant to add a little spice to their day. Any special treat makes an average day that much more extraordinary and any employee would feel appreciated by having a catered lunch provided for them. It does not have to be a fancy meal, but the opportunity to have lunch on the boss can brighten up the afternoon.
8. Free Days
Perhaps you don't have a big budget for some of these fun ideas. What else can you do? Give your employees a free day off on their birthday! Why not let them celebrate with their friends and family? Or, give everyone a free day to shop for the holidays. Everyone is stressed during the holidays, so giving your employees that extra day off to get their shopping done can go a long way and show that you care about their well being.
9. Relax and Unwind
Plan an in-office yoga session. More than ⅔ of US employers offer wellness programs as a part of their benefit packages, according to a 2015 Society for Human Resource Management survey. This survey shows that employers notice positive employee morale and retention when successful wellness programs are part of their company benefits.
So, get up and stretch. Let the stressers from a long work week melt away as you complete the sun salutation. Or perhaps take ten minutes to play some peaceful music and have the group work on some simple reflections. Even planning a lunch hour stretch to get away from your desk and get some fresh air can relax and refresh your employees.
10. Invest in the Future
Provide scholarships or education funds to your employees and allow them to continue their education. By investing in your employees, they will want to give back to the company who believed in them. Open up opportunities for internships for future employees. Mentorships also allow your employees to learn from others within the company and increase the coworker bond.
The International Foundation of Employee Benefits Plans' conducted a 2015 survey that showed 83% of organizations surveyed offer some type of tuition reimbursement or educational assistance plan. Investing in the future of your employees is a vital element for any forward looking company. Your company will reap the benefit of this investment through strong employee loyalty and positive workforce morale.
The best way to ensure employee participation and enjoyment in the planned events is to make them a part of the process. Create a morale committee made up of a diverse cross-section of employees. These employees can become your best source of ideas to create a positive spirit within your workplace. An employee-led committee should have a clear budget that allows them to develop and grow their ideas. The employer should only step in to ensure employee safety, encourage committee effort, and facilitate funding conversations. Let your employees develop new ideas and see how their imagination sparks excitement and motivation within your team.
Improving employee morale is more than just making people happy – you want to have a place where your team is excited to be there. By making employees happy to be at work, you are motivating them to succeed for the company overall. If your employees are happy, your customers will recognize that and know that they are working with a strong and loyal team.
Contact Karen Curione for more ideas to improve your team's morale.

This week Cash seems to have grown a lot more hair, and is really enjoying independent play on his activity gym. In 3 days he'll officially be 7 months old!!! He completely sits up on his own, grabs his toys, refuses to let us hold his bottle for him, and has been rolling over here & there! He got a new ball-toy that is supposed to encourage crawling and rolling over, but he really just likes to look at it's lights.
He sampled some pizza& a garlic knot down in Channelside at Precent Pizza, he liked it a little too much!! We also have been able to set him into grocery carts and high-chairs at restaurants this week since he's sitting on his own so well. He really loves being able to see everything thats going on, and flirt with all the ladies that stop and tell him how cute he is!!
Aside from the pizza, this week we also made him pureed blueberries, which he enjoyed spiting out all over the place, tomatoes that he liked and kept humming "mmm" while eating them, and bananas, he's still unsure about eating them, but is positive he likes playing with them.
Since starting this solid food sampling, we've definitely had to bathe baby a lot more often!! These past two weeks have been so so much fun! He likes loud animal noises like lions roaring or dogs barking, but HATES loud regular noises like the food processor and the buzzer on the drier. Baby boy smiles big, and with his eyes too, Tyra Banks would be proud…
Submarines and Smiles,

"We are super excited and very pleased to present the collection 'Midnight Riders,' photographed by Brooke Nipar for our Fall 2009 2nd Delivery. By utilizing dark themes found in the iconic 80's flick 'Mad Max', 'Midnight Riders' aims to represent the ideology of the subversive in not only fact and fiction, but fashion as well.
Black, pewter gray and grenadine red are colors present throughout the collection to set the tone and compliment the progressive and functional silhouettes by drawing attention to the details of each piece. New interesting pieces in this collection include; the 'Krueger', a unique play on a pullover jacket with a hidden hood underneath a high profile collar and the 'Hammer', a slouch-fit cotton canvas pant with contrasting grenadine red fabric pocket lining, welt back pockets and functional button details.
Clever silhouettes, unique details, and the use of simple colors to emphasize form and function while creating a true display of female strength, sensuality and independence that is: 'Midnight Riders.'"

Turning Sadness to Joy…

Jesus already knew what He was going to do. He still does…
Seldom is there a quick solution to life's complex problems. Why?! Quick solutions are usually not thorough solutions. Time and twists and turns are needed to teach us the lessons that will keep us steady…determined to live life with the authenticity and love that God intends. Continue reading

My little niece is turning four next month and having a "Fairy Princess" birthday party, so I decided to get creative and make these cute tutus for her! (A big thank you to Amy for the idea!)
The pups were very interested in my morning craft project so I decided that they should be my first models.
I'm sure Caraline will look like the princess that she is!
Happy Birthday Sweet Caraline!!!

For God and Country
Two companies of Parliamentary musketeers, covered in dust from a long march on dry roads, stand ready to fight for their God and England.
Armed with short range matchlock muskets, these men would give covering firepower to the pikemen who were the main infantry shock force of the army.
The red dots identify these as the 2nd and third companies, the first company was the pike unit while the colonel would have the flag without dots.

Love Notes
Deborah is honestly AMAZING. I am a very special bride who was very picky with the details of my wedding invitations and had a complete vision of what I wanted it to look like. Deborah went above and beyond to make that vision come true. She literally made exactly what I wanted and my wedding invitations came out elegant, timeless and beautiful! I definitely recommend!"
Leslie A.
Working with Deborah was great. She was very attentive to our needs and the price for our invitations and other day-of items (e.g., table numbers, escort cards, etc.) was very reasonable for such detailed and eye-catching work. She also was very quick in turning around proofs so that we knew exactly what we were getting. We highly recommend Deborah and her company for your wedding invitation and other paper needs."

Donal Garland BDentSc (Dubl) 1986
Dental Surgeon
GDC No: 61494
Donal qualified from Dublin Dental Hospital, Trinity College, Dublin in 1986. He initially worked in a large practice in North London for 18 months and then spent two years working at the dental practice of two partners in Worthing.
Having gained a lot from working under the guidance of three highly experienced dentists, he decided it was time for him to run his own practice. So, from 1990 until 2016, he ran his own single-handed practice in Hove, during which time he gained a huge amount of experience and built up a large base of very loyal patients. He has particular interest in the restorative aspects of dentistry, and completed a year's course in Advanced Restorative Care with Harris Sidelsky in 2007.
Having decided it was time for a change in his career, Donal is delighted to be joining a large and experienced team again.
In addition to time spent with his wife and two daughters, he is a keen cyclist, an enthusiastic musician and a below-average golfer.

Prepare to have your minds blown on 5th October as Blade Runner 2049 erupts into Cineworld. Here's why you need to see the gargantuan sci-fi sequel in 4DX.
So what is 4DX?
Providing a revolutionary cinematic experience which stimulates all five senses, the 4DX includes high-tech motion seats and special effects including wind, fog, lightning, bubbles, water, rain and scents, in both 2D and 3D formats. These effects work in perfect synchronicity with the action on screen – creating the most unmissable and exhilarating cinematic experience yet.
Put simply, it brings your favourite movies to life like nothing else.
And on that note…
Put simply, Blade Runner 2049, like its classic predecessor, aims to engulf and overwhelm the viewer in a hazy, engrossing atmosphere of neon, steam and shadow. Denis Villeneuve's immersive visual style and sound has already stunned in the likes of last year's Oscar nominated Arrival, and put simply this is the kind of experience 4DX was made for.
Sold! Where do I book my tickets?
Right here. And don't forget to tweet us your responses @Cineworld and using #4DX.

Collins was the Magistrate of Chau Sara. In late 2499, he was faced with an unenviable situation; the Sons of Korhal had been working for months to undermine Confederate authority in the Fringe Worlds[1] and there was the threat that Chau Sara may engage in revolt. He called in Alpha Squadron deal with the situation. However, circumstances became far more complicated with the emergence of some strange xenomorphs and Cerberus Recon Squad.[2]
Although the existence of the xenomorphs was not unknown to Collins, having known of their study in the Flannum Installation, that did not stop the Cerberus Commander asserting his authority over him,[3] much to Collins' frustration. Eventually, due to a disagreement over tactics (Collins wanted to form a defensive perimeter while the Commander believed an early strike was required) after the liberation of Los Andares, Collins' authority was superseded.[4]

In the good books
1. AIR NEW ZEALAND (AIZ) was upgraded to Buy from Neutral by UBS
UBS believes investors will increasingly turn their focus to the potential for earnings to recover and generate strong cash flow from FY20. The broker's conviction is lifted by the recent announcement of a cost reduction program, more conservative network growth and the re-timing of fleet orders. The broker lifts forecasts for FY19 by 2% in FY20 by 17%. Rating is upgraded to Buy from Neutral. Target is raised to NZ$2.90 from NZ$2.55.

It's a shame that you moved and I never contacted you before, I always believed that, at some point I would meet you and exchange hints about crafting in Korea :-)

Anyway, I know you are So busy, settling up back home, but when you have time,I would like to get your help with two questions:

1. Where is the building that sells beads in Nandeamun Market? I read that post where you said it is behind MESA even before moving here, but I never found it! can you give mesome hints about how to get there? I make jewlery and buy all my supplies at Dongdeamun (5th floor) but would like to find more options.

2. I would love to learn Chilbo! are your teachers in Seoul? if yes,can you send me their contact? if not, could you ask if they would suggest me a place to learn it in Seoul?

Again,I know how busy you are, don't bother to answer, just when you have time!

I have purchased an EdgeRouter SFP and using this guide I have successfully set it up replacing my Huawei, in the process I managed to get rid of 2x PoE adaptors for my Unifi. The whole thing was pretty straightforward with the Wizard, following this guide.
Everything seems to be working well, with the exception of one thing - Remote Desktop has stopped working. I don't know why and I don't know how to fix it, and wonder if you can point me in the right direction?
Without going into the specific, I have a PC which I use in headless mode (i.e. no screen, keyboard or mouse). On boot it starts the Remote Desktop Server automatically. To control this PC, I remote into it using Remote Desktop app on my Mac. Both the headless PC and the controlling Mac are on the same home network (say, PC on 192.168.1.80 and Mac on 192.168.1.81 via reserved DHCP IP)
I suspect the default setup with EdgeOS Wizard has created some kind of "block" for Remote Desktop. Can you please tell me what I need to change to get the functionality back? I have googled it and found some mentions about enabling port forwarding, however it seems this is for those situations where the controlling PC and the controlled PC are on different network?
Sorry for the newbie question.

My nanny recently starting making this stir-fry for the kids and they love it! We use all organic products and low-sodium soy sauce. mhmmm
I found these organic Udon noodles (they have other yummy Asian noodles as well, like Soba) on Amazon, so I usually buy a large box and have it stocked up in our pantry.
Boil and drain udon noodles.
Thaw and chop one cup of frozen broccoli
Shred one carrot
Thaw 1 cup of frozen chopped spinach
1/2 cup of diced tofu
Mince one clove of garlic. Heat 2 tablespoon of oil add garlic, cook until light brown then add all the veggies. Cook until the broccoli is tender. Add the noodles and mix. Add 1-2 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Add the tofu at the end, mix and serve.
Still using the same organic tofu from Trader Joes – you see it in most of my recipes on here! 🙂
This was a double batch made for a potluck. But the kids were loving it. For my little guy, I use scissors to cut up the long noodles a bit. Even as a finger food, the noodles and tofu bits would be fun!

Chipotle's misfortune has been in the news a great deal lately. For those who have not been following may ask, what is the outrage about anyway?
Chipotle's stock this year has fallen over two-thirds, which is a steep dive from a company whose motto is "Food with Integrity". The cause of Chipotle's downfall can be mainly attributed to the mismanagement and lack attentiveness towards the handling of food outbreaks. During another outbreak this year, one of its locations closed in Boston as the Norovirus caused more than 100 sicknesses.
According to the Motley Fool, there were multiple cases throughout the year of 2015 as "before the nationwide E. coli outbreak at the end of the year, Chipotle had also experienced a salmonella infection in Minnesota that sickened 64 people, a Norovirus outbreak in California that infected more than 200 people, and a smaller E. coli outbreak in Seattle". Instead of responding to the outbreak with due diligence, the company reportedly blaming the CDC and media reporting methods. There seems to be a barrier in transparency, yet "Food with Integrity". Chipotle has a history of five main E. coli outbreaks, each ranging from affecting 5 people to 230 per instance. The most recent outbreak was July 2017 in Virginia in conjunction with the Norovirus. A few days later, a viral video of rodents falling from ceilings in Chipotle restaurants filmed in Dallas was released. The video calls attention to how food safety is vital part of a restaurant chain's success– that the responsibility not only lies within creating culture and good food, but also keeping those they serve safe.
Public health and food safety dealing with one of the most popular food chains that directly influences popular culture is bound to stir some controversial outrage, which will be difficult to some to stomach.
Note: Chipotle Powell, Ohio Lawsuit
What is E. coli and the Norovirus (Winter Vomiting Bug)?
E.coli on its own, in contrast to public opinion, exists in harmony with the rest of the bacteria in the human intestines. The main issue with infections is consuming harmful E.coli that exists outside our microbiome from other animal intestines, feces, and raw meats. Symptoms of E.coli infections are abdominal cramping, diarrhea, bloody stools, fever, and fatigue. In severe cases, kidney failure and dehydration is common, probably due to the excess diarrhea and lack of replenishment of fluids.
The E.coli outbreaks were typically accompanied by the Norovirus, which exacerbated the symptoms such as via the Boston and Simi Valley outbreak. The Norovirus induces similar symptoms to E.coli, such as diarrhea, and stomach cramps. It adds another level of gastrointestinal distress as it however, induces vomiting. Also known as the "Winter Vomiting Bug" and "food poisoning", it is more prominent during cold months due to undercooked raw fruits, vegetables, and oysters. It is not a flu as it does not affect the respiratory system, but can be spread via contact with contaminated surfaces to nose, mouths, and eyes. Noroviruses are highly contagious and thrive via closed quarters such as restaurants, day cares, and nursing homes. Symptoms typically elapse after three miserable days.
How is it treated?
There are no known medications that directly treat E.coli even though it is a bacterium. Typically rest and rehydrating fluids are prescribed. On the other hand, there are no known treatments to treat the Norovirus, as it is indeed a virus and antibiotics are ineffective. The same treatment maintains, of fluids and rest.
Recap of the incidence
While no one was directly killed via the Chipotle outbreaks, it is a cause of concern to how the restaurant handles public health and safety.
The highlights of Chipotle's growth as a company are mainly attributed to its capaciousness, in its desire to expand. Unlike most fast-food chains, Chipotle does not franchise, meaning that each decision or location is a direct order from corporate. The lack of management especially during this time period, with its main focus on exponentially expanding the food chain for greater profits instead of maintaining its service at its existing locations lead to its ultimate demise.
Its main response or comeback to the food outbreak, Chipotle is convinced that its Food with Integrity is the way it will pull through from food borne quagmire as it focuses on delivering whole fresh foods, raised from farmers which apparently seems ethical though it is not vegan or Whole Foods that directly caters to a niche market of health-conscious individuals.
While some news outlets, such as Huffington Post, defend Chipotle as all fast-food chains are a double-gamble with health, that outbreaks are bound to happen more often than say Michelin starred restaurants, at least Chipotle is trying. It now the time to magically believe in its mission, the stock prices and the company image is almost irreparably damaged. That is, until Chipotle does something stratospherically amazing, with a burrito.
Moral of the story, please put people not profits first.
