Jeff & Kim AbernEthy
CBF at UNC Charlotte
The varied faces of our CBFI ministry are:
Brandon & Regina Bell
Dominican Republic
We are Brandon and Regina Bell, missionaries to the Dominican Republic with Baptist Home Missions. We, along with our sons Anthony and Patrick, are serving in the city of Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic and helping to establish Bible teaching, Baptist churches in this city. We are part of a missionary team sent out by Maranatha Baptist Church in Winston-Salem, NC. Our teammates Adam and Jodi Pittman arrived here on the field in August 2015 and we are praying that the rest of our team would be able to raise the needed support and arrive here on the field soon to help us. In August of 2016 we will return home for a 6 month furlough after completing our first two year term on the field.
Branden & Laura Bowen
Serving in Madagascar
We are church planters working in Maintirano to plant autonomous churches to reach other villages of Madagascar. The Malagasy people trust their deceased ancestors as intermediaries to God. Malagasy Christians were violently persecuted in 1800s, and now many in Madagascar have never heard the Gospel. Agriculture and fishing are the main industries of this country which is struggling to develop with a weak economy, unstable government, and much poverty.
Bobby & Joanna Burdett
Serving in Madagascar
We were both saved as children and felt God's call to missions during our teen years. At different times and under different circumstances, God led us to Piedmont Baptist College in Winston Salem, NC for Bible training. We were married in 2005 and began serving as missionaries in Madagascar in 2011. Currently we are planting a church and training nationals in a rural region of Madagascar.
Barry & Judy Bryne
Judy and I recently celebrated our 49th wedding anniversary. After serving the Lord in Zambia Africa for more than seventeen years, we had to leave due to Judy's constant battle with malaria. The Lord has led us to the mountains of southeastern Kentucky. More specifically, Bledsoe, which is in Harlan County. We have been here five years and are just beginning to see fruit.
Jake & Joy DeWald
Serving in the Dominican Republic
We are missionaries sent by Heritage Hills Baptist Church to Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. We are a part of a five-family team seeking to plant Baptist churches in the northern provinces of the D.R. As a team we plan to begin a Bible institute where we can train Dominican pastors. Our goal is to eventually plant more churches along side nationals. Included in our outreach are children and teen ministries. Because we need young believers to train for the work in church planting, much of our current effort is directed toward ministry with young people. We are now finishing deputation, and we hope to arrive on the field in Spring/Summer of 2018. If you would like to know more about us, please visit our website at drdewalds.com.
Tim & Shelby Green
Hispanic ministry - Memphis, TN
Shelby and Tim Green are missionaries with Baptist Mid-Missions doing Spanish church planting. Tim was born and raised in Venezuela to missionary parents. Shelby is a native of North Carolina. Tim was called to missionary service as a teenager and Shelby felt the call before starting in Piedmont Baptist College. They started their missionary service in Mexico then transferred to North American ministry. They planted the Iglesia Bautista Bíblica in Lawrence, Massachusetts and are presently working to establish the Iglesia Bautista Central in Memphis, Tennessee, where there are over 50,000 people of Hispanic descent.
Charles & Gai Jewell
Central African Republic
Charlie and Gail have been missionaries in CAR since 1989. We served our first 14 years at Bangassou, teaching in their Bible School and ministering in the churches of the Bangassou area. In 2002, because of 2 civil wars that caused missionaries not to return, we moved to Bangui and Charlie became the head of the mission in CAR and finance officer. We continue to work with churches, Bible Schools, and our medical ministries, all over CAR. We are very Thankful to our Lord that He has found us worthy to continue in ministry for His Honor and His Glory in the CAR.
Dave & Sandy Kelly
Word of Life - Lexington, NC
David and Sandy Kelly are both graduates of Tennessee Temple University. It was during their college years that God called them both to be missionaries.
Upon graduation in 1976 they came as missionaries with Word of Life Fellowship.
As part of the Word of Life Caribbean team David and Sandy are committed to reaching and challenging another generation of young men and women with the claims of Christ.
Throughout the year David and Sandy travel to various Caribbean Island to establish Word of Life local church Bible clubs and camps. They also co-ordinate summer trips to the targeted islands where Word of Life has an interest.
Stateside, Dave and Sandy speak in churches, youth groups, Christian schools, Christian colleges, mission conferences and Christian business men's meetings. David also teaches in some of Word of Life's Bible Institutes around the world.
Dr. Billy & Barbara Martin
Evangelism in the USA
Churches both large and small, mission fields both near and far have opened their doors and hearts to the Martins for ministries in evangelism and Biblical exposition. It has been said: "Evangelistic unction makes orthodoxy function."
It was the Risen Christ who gave the office of the evangelist to the local church. It is our calling to continue with His enabling in the train of His triumph! The Lord of the harvest has made it possible for us to take this faith ministry throughout the US and Canada as well as to over forty other countries. A major part of our outreach has been enrichment conferences and Pastor Prayer Advances for Christian workers. We would be honored to have your fellowship in prayer for our stewardship in the fields that are white unto harvest.
Billy S. Martin
Ryan & Joy Owen
Currently we are working with college students at the University of Ghana, a campus of 53,000 students. We have also been helping some of the national churches in their own outreach and church planting efforts. Ryan holds a Bible study every Saturday Morning from 6:30am till 8:30. Currently there are 14 attending. Recently some have made professions of faith. Joy is currently enrolled in Twi classes until May 2017.
Darrell & Laura Peavy
Serving in the Dominican Republic
We are part of the Church Planting team headed to the Dominican Republic. We want to be on the field in the spring of 2017. We are looking forward to being involved in evangelism, kids programs and Bible studies. We have one child (Shiloh) and another (Schyler) that will be here in October of 2016. It is exciting to look forward to see how the Lord is going to work in the DR.
James & Lauren Peavy
Serving in the Dominican republic
James and Lauren are with Baptist Mid Missions in the Dominican Republic. There they are involved in church planting and theological education. James is working in the seminary in La Romana and training national Pastors to reach their own people and communities with the gospel.
Adam & Jodi Pittman
Dominican Republic
Adam and Jodi Pittman are missionaries serving with Baptist Home Missions in the Dominican Republic. Currently, the Pittman family is working in the city of Puerto Plata to establish the first Independent Baptist Church in the city. They are a part of a missionary team whom of which Brandon and Regina Bell are serving with them. God willing the remainder of the team will arrive in the next year. Their ministries include, kids bible class in their neighborhood, weekly adult bible study in Spanish and with English students, evangelism and building relationships with Dominicans.
Bob & Deb Thompson
Serving as President of Grace Baptist Bible College
Bob and Deb served as missionaries in Brazil for 15 years before returning to the States due to their second daughter's cancer. This resulted in a change in ministry focus. For the next 9 years they served with Bibles International helping to provide God's Word translated into the languages of the people who did not have an adequate translation. In 2012, Baptist Home Missions asked Bob to serve as the General Director. And in 2017, God opened the door for Bob to become the President of Grace Baptist Bible College, where he is presently serving.
Paul & Laurel Timblin
Arizona & Mexico
We have been with UIM Aviation since 2004. Our focus is using airplanes to fly into remote villages in the mountains of Mexico to share the gospel of Christ with the tribal people. Paul is the Director of Maintenance. He uses his detailed mechanical and organizational skills to keep the planes flying safely in and out of these rough airstrips in the mountains. As Director of Maintenance, Paul is also part of the administrative team of UIM Aviation.
Don & LeAnne Waite
We have been serving with Baptist Mid-Missions in Slovakia since May of 2001. Building up the Baptist church in Kezmorak through evangelism and discipleship is the focus of our ministry. In addition to regular services and fellowship events, this includes a children's and youth ministry as well as individual and small group Bible studies. For the past seven years we have been involved in outreach through teaching English as a second language. Some classes we teach in our home, and for some we go to businesses in our area.

I tried screen printing for the first time last year and was instantly hooked (to the dismay of family members who received screen printed tote bags, baby singlets, onesies and tea towels for months!)
Today I did a super quick screen print half an hour prior to the school run, so it's a tad on the sloppy side. But nonetheless, to use as gift wrap, and for covering my daughters school books…it will do!
My Sloppiest work ever!
Looks like The Sloppy Jalopy! Oscar's car from Sesame street.
If you live in Sydney and wish to see far more polished screen printing head to:
The Print Society Pop Up Workshop @ Gaffa, from Feb 11 – 23, 2013
281 Clarence st, Sydney
I'm planning to go this week and have a squizz at their new range of fabrics, cushions and clutches!

I don't necessarily include links here that are internal to a link that I have added here, but as this issue still seems quite 'live' I will this time:
I also notice that there's a Wikipedia article on support scams here. It's not exactly comprehensive, but it's reasonably accurate and even links to a couple of my articles.

After ripping the front of the jumper all the way after my stupid mistake I have been knitting in earnest in the hope I can have this thing done by Christmas. It is looking extremely doubtful (don't tell Gwyn) Two people this week have said 'is that the jumper you are knitting for his birthday?' Alright! I get it, it's almost been a year and it is still not finished.
Am doing the shoulders at the moment. It is so tricky! So much to remember. I am constantly writing little notes to myself that make no sense when I return to it. I am so scared to mess up the cable at this late stage. I can't wait to finish this piece and then there's just the sleeves and the neckline to go.
The edging on the blanket is almost done. Am finishing it off in a double crochet maroon border. I have two sides to go. This might even make it to my first 'Finished Friday' post.
Don't the corners look great? Although they are curling. I never thought I'd have to block this but it's becoming more apparent I'm going to have to.
I am so ready to put these two behind me! For more works in progress visit Tami's Amis and give some other people some encouragement or join in!

Four beers last night in Becker Brau, unfiltred, of course... and a night of hyperactivity, as there was full moon (2 more probably following...). Enough to put me in that state I go into when I don't have things to do.
So... this will be a "Sex and the city"-type blog. Question: Why do we like problems? Why do women like problems? What is it with calm life that sounds so damn wrong that we are not happy with? If we are not ok, if things go wrong, we complain that they never go well. If everything is perfect, we complain that we get bored.
I would like to meet the woman who is absolutely satisfied with her life. She will be my hero. But is there such a woman? Or it's just an ideal, more of a man's ideal actually, as they always say we're never satisfied. You know... as we have our romantic prince charming, handsome, sensitive, that always does the exact thing we need, and always says what we need to hear. That's a satisfied woman for the men, the perfection, the ideal (which, of course, doesn't exist).
Or, maybe, it does exist. But me... well, I have never met such a woman. I addmit. I complain about everything. I'm never satisfied with the way things are, but I truly believe that if I did, my life would be meaningless. I always say you have to have standards to reach for. And always have a project to fight for, if not, what is life? If a guy treats me with indifference... well, just ask those who did and they'll tell you how annoying I get.
So, I complicate my life. If I don't have problems, I invent them. I couldn't live in a life where there would be no problems. Of course, usually my problems are... romantic. And as I consider myself a bit of an artist, at least my soul is, I tend to take my problems as far as they become tragedies. So every day there's a tragedy happening, it keeps me going, and it keeps me from getting bored, because I am getting bored easily.
So, as I said, I enjoy complicating my life. If things are perfect, which they should be, since apparently all my dreams came true lately (just check my latest blog entries, you'll know what I mean), if I am happy, as I should be, I am actually not happy. I am not happy of being too happy. (What a stupid thing to say, right?). So, I am creating problems, and I am trying to find ways for the things to be not so perfect.
Some of you were getting a glimpse of my new-found "complications" lately, and saw how much I enjoyed them, and still enjoy. For the last three weeks, I've been going to work smiling and keeping that smile all day, which is a lot to ask from me. Unfortunately, there are too many people I care for reading this blog and I cannot explain everything in here. The question is, what will exactly happen? And how will I manage to go with it? Well... I have always fallen on my feet, no matter how many stupid things I've done; that's why I am so sure I will manage to handle everything. It's just a way to see how things would be if I did everything differently. And maybe putting the bases of a new life, I'm good at that.

The title may sound like an oxymoron but freelancing is a different way to earn a living than working full time for a company. Unlike a full time employee, the freelancer has the responsibility to find solutions to develop and increase his/her business, find new clients and retain the existing ones. In a company, there is a division exclusively responsible for this. I have learned to invest in myself in order to grow my graphic design business. When I say investing, I mean time and money. In the long run, I got a good return on my investments.
My first big investment was a good laptop so I was able to be more mobile and offer my clients to work at their offices. It paid off very well when I got a big contract with a new client requiring to bring my computer. Since then, many more clients who needed my services but did not have a free working station, were able to use my services. It is my responsibility to stay up-to-date with new technologies in my industry. I keep my equipment and software current to the industry standard. It can be costly but essential so my clients get the best service they can expect from me.
I did spend some money on business cards and promotional items (post-it notes and notepads with my logo, email and phone number) to give to potential clients and make me look more professional. Having a website is a must for every business and freelancer. I made my own website to showcase my work. I'm lucky I can do it myself so it only cost me time. If you can't do it yourself, hire someone to do it for you, it is worth the investment.
Keep learning and improving your skills.
As a freelancer, I go through phases where I'm not that busy and it can be frustrating. It is the perfect time to keep busy learning new skills and improving the ones I don't fully master. Taking time to improve on my skills and what I can offer to my clients is one of the most profitable decisions I ever make not to mention the self satisfaction it gave me.
In the long run, investing in yourself is worth the time and the risk, it will motivate you and will improve your future. You can find multiple options in continuing education online or in your community and it is worth looking into.
It is important to spend time to build up my client base.
In my downtime, I take the opportunity to make myself more visible on my social networks. I write articles and post availability notifications on Linked-in and Instagram. I reach out to my regular clients to let them know that I'm available for new contracts. It's important to promote yourself because your skills and your service offers won't sell without assistance. You need to take action to secure that new contract.
See you in my next post

Elizabeth Murphy was elected as the 2013-2014 president of the St. Thomas Students' Union with 338 votes. She says her two main goals for next year are to increase alumni presence on campus and help students with finances. She says she will be successful because of her networking skills and experience working with administration.
"I feel incredibly excited. I'd like to congratulate all the candidates on a job well done. I am extremely pleased and can't wait to get started," Murphy said after hearing the news.
The Saint John native says she doesn't want any "rubber-stamping" on the union, so that everyone is comfortable sharing their views at meetings. She also says she will take plenty of time to make decisions, something she criticized Hoben for this year.
"Our priorities should be different. It has been cited that this year has been a building year but I think every year is a fresh start. To say that this year was only used for building, it's not what should have been done. I felt that there was too much focus on external advocacy."
The third-year political science and communications major travelled to STU's sister school in Houston last winter. She also was the president of her high school's student council and sat on the Education Council for District 8. She is currently a Board of Governors representative on the STUSU, a non-voting position.
"What sets me apart is definitely my ability to network with people on campus and off-campus and certainly I'm coming at this with the angle that I want to collaborate."
She also says she wants to keep the emergency bursary program and add funding to the campus food bank because many students apply for bursaries because they can't afford to eat.
"We can't say to students at one point that we are going to fight for them for lower tuition or to keep it the same and then turn around and say but we're going to get rid of our emergency bursary program."
Murphy says for years student groups and groups from the university have been going to the government about funding issues but they've never gone together. She says she will use her role as president to change this.
"We've had the government agree with us that it's unfair, that there's a discrepancy. They know that, we know that. But they're not willing to do anything about it because there's not more people coming to talk to them, there's not a bigger voice."
She also wants to have a second Welcome Week in second semester, a monthly newsletter, and an updated STUSU website. She says effective communication with the student body will be a big goal too.
The exact vote counts for each position will be available soon.

SCOTLAND COUNTY, N.C. — An infant is believed to be missing and in danger in Scotland County, WTVD reports.
Scotland County Sheriff's Office said it's trying to locate a woman known as April Morrison. Unfortunately, that may be an alias.
Morrison reportedly arrived in the Richmond County area 8-months pregnant. She gave birth to a girl recently, and that girl is believed to be in danger.
Scotland County Sheriff's Office said the baby is likely not with her mother, who has been reported (but not confirmed) as deceased. Investigators said Morrison has been staying in local motels and hotels between Richmond County, Scotland County, and Fayetteville.
Anyone with information about Morrison or the missing infant is asked to call 910-266-4332 Ext 4.

Whether your home improvements are for you or potential buyers, consider their impact on your home's potential resale price before picking up your toolbox (or the phone to call a contractor).
A brand-new kitchen or bathroom will undoubtedly wow potential buyers, but there's no guarantee you'll recoup the money you put into those pricey remodels.
To help you navigate the choices that lead to the best return on investment, we asked two industry experts (and one enthusiastic DIYer) to weigh in.
Kitchen renovations
"Renovating the kitchen is always the biggest way to add value to your home," says Grace Fancher, real estate agent at Kansas City firm Sarah Snodgrass. "People love to cook, and everyone tends to gather in the kitchen. If you add seating, such as an island with barstools, buyers go crazy for that."
A full remodel is a major investment, but smaller projects make a big difference if you can't – or don't want to – go all out. "Nicer appliances really stick out to potential buyers – even if you're planning to take them with you," Fancher says.
She also suggests replacing tired finishes with fresh, neutral materials. "You don't want to be too trendy, but you want it to look up-to-date," she says. "Everyone loves clean, white subway tiles now, but they're really a timeless look."
Replacing dated countertops (quartz is your best bet, according to Fancher) and flooring is also worth the time and money.
Photo from Zillow listing.Bathroom updates
The smallest rooms in the house can have a big impact on its value, so Fancher suggests adding a second bathroom or upgrading existing ones so your home features at least two full baths.
Joe Monda, co-owner of Seattle-based general contracting firm Promondo, agrees. "People are spending more on upgrading their houses before listing them," he says. "They really want to maximize the potential …read more

How Can I Get Council Information?
The four ways in which government information is available under the GIPA Act are:
Open access information (mandatory release)
Council is required to publish the following open access information under section 18 of the GIPA Act:
- current publication guide
- documents tabled in parliament
- policy documents
- disclosure log of access applications
- register of government contracts
- record of open access information not publicly available
- other information as prescribed by the regulations as open access (see below)
Council is required to publish the following additional open access information under Schedule 1 to the Government Information (Public Access) Regulation 2009 (NSW) (GIPA Regulation):
• Information about council
• Council Plans and Policies
• Information about development applications
• Information about approvals, orders and other documents
Proactive release
Under section 7(3) of the GIPA Act, Council is required to review its proactive release program at least every 12 months, to identify any information we hold that should in the public interest be made publicly available. Clear here to access the information Council has made proactively available.
Informal request
The informal release provisions under section 8 of the GIPA Act provides Council with the authority to release information without the need for a formal access application.
Information can be informally requested from Council by contacting the Right to Information Officer.
Please note the GIPA Act provides no statutory timeframe by which informal requests must be decided within. Council is not required to disclose government information pursuant to an informal request and is also not required to consider an informal request for government information (s8(3)). Council can decide however by what means information is to be released in response to an informal request (s8(4)).
Making a formal access application
If information can't be accessed through any of the above avenues, a formal access application can be submitted to Council. Council will request a formal application be made for information only as a last resort, likely necessary if an applicant asks for a large volume of information, if providing access would involve an unreasonable diversion of resources on behalf of Council (i.e. extensive search, retrieval from archives), or if the information sought involves personal or business information about third parties that must be consulted before the information can be released.
Section 41 of the GIPA Act lists the formal requirements for making a valid access application:
- it must be in writing sent to or lodged at Council;
- it must clearly indicate that it is an access application made under the GIPA Act;
- it must be accompanied by a $30 application fee;
- it must state a postal address in Australia as the address for correspondence in connection with the application;
- it must include such information as is reasonably necessary to enable the government information applied for to be identified.
Upon receipt of a valid access application, Council must give the applicant notice of its decision within 20 working days, although this time can be extended under section 57(2) to consult with third parties or retrieve information from archives. Processing charges at a rate of $30 per hour may also apply as part of deciding the application.
Applicants aggrieved with a reviewable decision set out under section 80 of the GIPA Act have the right to request a review of that decision. This fact-sheet outlines available review rights under the GIPA Act. http://www.ipc.nsw.gov.au/

Greipel wants to be top team sprinter
German sprinter looking to emerge from Cavendish's shadow
Andre Greipel has announced he intends to be the top team sprinter next year, wherever he rides, and finally step out of the shadow of teammate and rival sprinter Mark Cavendish. "Next year I will ride in a team where I can realise my ambitions," he told the latest issue of German magazine Sport-Bild.

But it may not be a new team for him in 2011. "I feel good at HTC-Columbia and would like to be the number one sprinter there," said Greipel, whose contract with the team runs through this season. The German sprinter wouldn't have much difficulty finding a new team, though. "My wins speak for themselves. I think I am of interest to many teams," he said.
Greipel has won 11 races this season, more than anyone else in the peloton. He won three of six stages at the Tour Down Under, as well as the points jersey and the overall classification. More recently he won five of the eight stages at the Tour of Turkey, including the opening time trial.
Last season, Greipel won 20 races, second only to Cavendish who won 23. So far this season, Cavendish has only one win to his credit, and has accused Greipel of only winning small races. "If I were allowed to start in larger races, then I would also prove there that I am one of the fastest sprinters in the world," Greipel said.
Greipel is scheduled to ride the Giro d'Italia next month, but is once again expecting to miss out on a place in the HTC-Columbia team for the Tour de France, a race which he has never ridden. "I am now 27, and can't wait forever," he said. "At any other team I would be set for the Tour de France."
It has become increasingly unlikely that HTC-Columbia will keep both Greipel and Cavendish in 2011 and team manager Rolf Aldag has indicated that Cavendish would defintely be around next season. "We have an agreement with him for next season," he told the magazine. "But we will do all we can to keep Andre on our team."

Chris Froome targeting record-breaking 2018 glory with Giro d'Italia and Tour de France double
Only seven riders have won the Giro and Tour in the same year, Marco Pantani was the last 19 years ago
CHRIS FROOME is ripping up the record books by racing in both the 2018 Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia.
No rider has done the double since Marco Pantani in 1998, but Froome and Team Sky feel this season's successful Tour/Vuelta efforts have them on course for the gruelling brace.
Froome will be on the Giro start line in Jerusalem on May 4 – his first appearance in the race since 2010 – and then will target his fifth Tour de France win in July.
The Brit said: "It's a unique situation for me, having won the Tour and Vuelta and now having the opportunity to go to the Giro and attempt to win a third consecutive Grand Tour.
"It's really exciting to be able to take on a new challenge, to do something that perhaps people wouldn't expect and to mix it up.
"It's a whole new motivation for me to see if I can pull off something special next year. I feel as if my cycling career started in Italy in some ways.
"I lived there for three years when I began my career as a professional, so having the opportunity to go back to the Giro in the position I am now in, and with the opportunity I have, feels in some ways like completing a circle."
"It's something the team have considered carefully and we've talked about a lot.
STOKES PROBE Ben Stokes' Ashes hopes hanging by a thread as cops reveal investigation over Bristol street brawl is ongoing
"We know that it would be a significant feat in the modern era to win both the Giro and the Tour in the same season, but the way we managed things this year gives me confidence that I can successfully target both races.
"Another factor is that there is an extra week between next year's Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France.
That's one more week for recovery and for training than there would be normally, which I think potentially makes it more manageable and conducive to being able to hit both races in great shape."
Victory at the Giro d'Italia would make Froome only the seventh rider in history to have won all three Grand Tours (Giro, Tour and Vuelta) in his career.
And Team Sky boss Dave Brailsford has backed the incredible bid and insisted a new chapter in the rich recent history of British cycling can be written in Italy.
Froome said: ""Some of cycling's greatest stories have been played out at the Giro d'Italia and next year gives us the chance to write a chapter of our own.
latest sport news
"We'll be taking Chris to the Giro with the aim of winning three consecutive Grand Tours, and then going on to France with the goal of winning the Tour.
"It's something that we have looked at in detail as a team. Some of the very best riders have attempted to win the Giro d'Italia and Tour de France in the same season but very few have been successful, so it's a challenge we have enormous respect for.

"But it's challenges like this that speak to what we're about as a team – setting ambitious targets, preparing for them properly and being ready to put it all on the line.
"Chris has established himself as one of the greats of our sport. He's certainly one of its fiercest competitors, and the great competitors take on the biggest challenges."

The high-level Berlin Security conference 2015 provided a fitting venue for the presentation of two significant prizes in the field of military ethics.
The awards were made by Euro-ISME, in conjunction with the French Association CIDAN, which exists to promote relations between the military and the armed forces not only in France, but across Europe. Euro-ISME is represented on the jury which selects all the prize winners and especially encourages individuals and organisations to apply for the special military ethics award.
The awards are given under the patronage of the President of France, M François Hollande. John Thomas, one of Euro-ISME's executive directors, represented Euro-ISME at the presentation ceremony.
This year there were several very strong candidates for the military ethics prize. Geneva Call, one of the candidates in the ethics category, was awarded the CIDAN prize 'Civisme, Sécurité, Défense (Civic responsibility, Security, Defence) for their outstanding and innovative work. They take instruction in ethics, the laws of armed conflict and humanitarian law right into the heart of conflict zones and deliver it to fighters who often have no previous knowledge of any of the these subjects.
The military ethics prize was awarded to Dr David Rodin who is one of the world's leading authorities on conflict ethics, and is sought after as a consultant by governments and businesses as well as armed forces.
John Thomas's speech in which he congratulated both prize winners is reproduced here:
Good morning,
My name is John Thomas and I am an executive director of the International Society for Military Ethics in Europe.
I have been invited to say a few words about two of the prize winners, Dr David Rodin and Geneva Call.
But first a brief word about the importance of values and ethics in the world today. One of the world's largest accountancy firms – Arthur Andersen, and one of the world's largest merchant banks – Lehman Bros, both collapsed because they had allowed an unethical culture to infect their decision make to the extent that unacceptable practices became the new normal. And right now here in Germany we see the current profound difficulties faced by the Volkswagen Group which again have at their root an institutionalised distortion of ethical values.
In the military sphere, where not merely profit and loss, but lives and quite literally the fates of nations are at stake, ethical behaviour is arguably even more important. We saw in Paris last Friday [13 November 2015] the appalling depth of depravity to which those with no ethics and values, other than a hermetic and fanatic self interest, can sink.
That is why we need people of the calibre of Dr Rodin to understand, distil and communicate the often complex issues in way that we can all understand.
In the United Kingdom it is rare for philosophers to be well known outside academic circles. Unlike the French, for example, we as a nation are relentlessly, if not obstinately, pragmatic, rather than philosophical, by nature. Dr Rodin is one of the few philosophers in recent times whose advice is actively sought by leading military institutions, governments and business. Perhaps his outstanding achievement is to help make ethics relevant again and to be able to communicate the fact that an understanding of ethics and the embodiment of ethical principles into military and business life is fundamental to our well being as a society. He is succeeding in expanding the perimiter of ethics within organisations.
If Dr Rodin is primarily a scholar, Geneva Call are primarily practitioners. Those of us from countries with a long tradition of studying and teaching just war theory, ethics, the Law of Armed Conflict and humanitarian law can still make mistakes, but we do take these subjects seriously. However, the nature of modern conflict is such that many, if not all, of the members of the irregular armed groups who oppose us, or who oppose each other, have no knowledge or understanding of these subjects. The use of child soldiers, of rape and indiscriminate brutality as weapons of war are tragic manifestations of this lack of knowledge and understanding.
Geneva Call had the wisdom to recognise the size and scope of this problem, the imagination to develop innovative ways of tackling it and the courage to go to war torn regions to deliver that solution. It is a remarkable organisation staffed by remarkable people.
We are therefore privileged to have on stage here today one of the world's leading military ethicists and the representatives of an NGO that is a world leader in taking that subject to where it is arguably most needed. On behalf of the International Society for Military Ethics in Europe I commend both of them to you.

Quirindi wins division one regional netball title | Photos
QUIRINDI has done its state netball championship preparations no harm by taking out the division one regional title on Sunday.
Taking on the best players from across the region, Quirindi proved too strong, making their way through to the grand final.
The much-anticipated final saw Quirindi lock horns with rivals Glen Innes in a high-scoring affair.
In the end it was Quirindi who proved too strong, running out 57-27 winners.

Quirindi first division coach Robert Gregg told the Leader he was proud of his team's performance.
"It was a really great team effort from our girls," Gregg said.
"They played hard all day and saved a really good performance for the final.
"Glen Innes is always a really tough team to beat, so to get over the line was really good."
Qurindi's division one victory was complimented by impressive performances in both division two and three.
"Our division two team ended up making the semi finals of division one," Gregg said.
"They won their way into the division one semi finals and were looking like they might make the final.
"However, they were run down by Tamworth late in the game and were knocked out.
"Meanwhile, our division three team lost by just one goal in overtime of the grand final.
"All up, it was a really good day for us."
All of the competing teams will now turn their attentions to the state netball championships in June.
"I think we are shaping up pretty well heading into the state champs, based on how we went at the regional champs," Gregg said.

This year's Frost Fayre, as is so often the case, was more of a Wind & Rain Fayre. Nevertheless, as usual, residents turned out in force and, as usual, our raffle stall was very popular.
We made over £155, after costs, which was a terrific result and will help keep the campaign moving forward. Thanks everyone (including members of the MAGOR group) for your unrelenting support.
This year we changed the raffle by having more smaller prizes but also added the opportunity of winning a 'star prize' by entering all winning tickets back into a free draw. This seemed very popular!
The winning ticket drawn was purchased by Zarah, so she received the Thomas the Tank Engine electric train-set, immediately after the Fayre. Congratulations Zarah!
One final thing, although the May and Frost Fayres are very popular, the Magor Events Group are, with a reducing membership, finding it increasingly difficult to organise, set up and dismantle. If you would like to join the group or even just to help on the days please contact the group via their Facebook page or by email to this address – firstname.lastname@example.com. Without additional help these wonderful traditions are likely to fold in the very near future and that would be a sad loss to the spirit of our unique community.

Serpentine Design
29 years of design for the tourist and heritage sector
Taking its name from the unusual multi-coloured bedrock of the Lizard Peninsula, Serpentine Design was founded in 1986, initially supplying copywriting and design for national computer magazines and software publishers. Gradually we established a local, loyal, client base which included the Isles of Scilly Steamship Company, the Tresco Estate and Cornwall Tourist Board, as well as many small businesses, schools and libraries.
For nearly two decades, from 1990 until 2008, we produced holiday accommodation guides for Kerrier, Caradon and North Cornwall district councils, the Dartmoor Tourist Association, as well as the annual 132-page Inspirational Cornwall holiday guide for the Cornwall Tourist Board (later, Visit Cornwall).
From 1997 we also researched, wrote and designed a series of lavishly-illustrated walks books for the Lizard Peninsula, West Cornwall and Plymouth, published by Cornwall Council (some of which are now on their second or third reprints). In 2007 the success of these publications led to a contract from the National Trust to rewrite and redesign new versions of the popular Coast of Cornwall and Coast of Devon walks leaflets, as well as producing an increasing number of countryside interpretation displays.
Whilst our main clients continue to be the National Trust, Natural England and Cornwall Council, we continue to work for local holiday cottage agencies and tourism groups, as well as local publishers. We have also published our own bestselling Guide to Cornish Fish available throughout the region, as well as an equally successful children's book set in Cornwall, Percy Pengelly and the Wibble Wobble, written by Jenny Steele Scolding and beautifully illustrated by Andy McPherson.

Alzheimer Disease – the Memory Thief
Alzheimer Disease– the Memory Thief
Alois Alzheimer
German psychiatrist and neurologist Alois Alzheimer received scant attention in 1906 when he published the case of a 51-year-old woman he had followed for five years until her death. The woman, he wrote, had trouble remembering her name, could not report what she was eating, could not write her husband's name, and could not remember familiar objects after a few minutes. Alzheimer examined her brain after her death and presented the findings in this first reported case of Alzheimer Disease.
Alzheimer disease is the most common form of dementia. It affected over 6 million Americans in 2017. It was the sixth leading cause of death and produced an economic cost of $259 billion. Some studies suggest a higher incidence among women; however, some attribute this to women's longer life expectancy. Medicare data suggest incidence of 11.5% among Hispanics, 9.4% among African-Americans, and 6.9% among Caucasians. Persons over 60 years of age constitute 90% of Alzheimer patients.
Physicians and scientists have no firm answers about the causes of
numbers and specific brain locations.
Risk Factors
Although science has not identified the causes of Alzheimer, it has identified certain risk factors. These are:
Advancing age
Family history
Presence of certain genes
Insulin resistance
High blood pressure
Down syndrome
Traumatic brain injury
The symptoms of Alzheimer increase from the mild, through the moderate, and into the severe stages of the disease.
- Mild stage symptoms include:
- Memory loss
- Confusion about
locationof familiar places
- Bad decisions
- Mood and personality changes
Moderate stage symptoms advance to:
- Short attention
- Difficulty recognizing friends and family
Difficultywith language and numbers
- Inability to organize thoughts
- Difficulty coping with unexpected situations
- Loss of impulse control
Finally, severe stage symptoms culminate in:
- Weight loss
- Difficulty swallowing
- Lack of bowel and bladder control
Tests for Alzheimer
Currently, only autopsy or brain biopsy can make a definitive diagnosis of Alzheimer disease. Lumbar puncture, or spinal tap, can secure samples of spinal fluid for analysis; but this is helpful mostly in research. MRI and CT may be useful for ruling out other, potentially treatable diseases. Sometimes PET scanning helps to differentiate Alzheimer from other dementias.
Available treatments for Alzheimer can only lessen the primary symptoms; they do not cure the disease or arrest its progress. Donepezil, rivastigmine, and galantamine are cholinesterase inhibitors. They work by slowing the breakdown of certain chemicals needed by nerve cells to function. Another drug, memantine, works by blocking brain cell absorption of a damaging chemical known as glutamate.
Other drugs simply alleviate secondary Alzheimer symptoms, such as depression, aggression, delusions, and sleep disorders.
Coping skills and strategies are central because Alzheimer is an incurable, progressive disease that extracts energy from both patient and caregivers.
Helpful coping tips are:
- Be realistic. Recognize that things will not be the same and that
satisfactory maytake precedence over perfection.
- Be clear, concise, and repetitious in communication.
- Use visual cues, such as gesturing, as well as verbal cues, in communication.
- Reminisce about the past with photographs and videos.
- Be prepared to change, as measures that were effective at one stage may begin to fail as the disease progresses.
The conquest of Alzheimer disease will likely come slowly with progress on several fronts. These may consist of:
- Development of better coping strategies and education of caregivers in their use.
- Improved medications to lessen primary symptoms.
- Discovery of means to reduce the frequency of the disease.
- Development of methods to slow or arrest the progress of the disease.
Inventionof a biochemical cure for Alzheimer.
- Optimistically, but improbably, development of means to reverse
damagedone by the disease.
Success over Alzheimer will involve the mobilization of multiple resources, including, economic, sociological, political, educational, scientific, medical, and nursing. Moreover, it will involve the insightful proportioning of funds among these resources. Further, it will involve the proportioning of funds among many societal problems. In summary, the program against Alzheimer is far more than a medical commitment; it is a societal commitment.

there are now some texture glitches
Yep, I have temporarily stitched the UV maps since this release, but I am planning to completely redo the terrain texture and UV maps once the geometry is near set-in-stone.

Also, that out-of-map teleporter to the banshee could break gameplay. :/
I would remove it in a next update or at the latest in the final release.

[release] H2PC Exporter Script for Blender 3d
Apr 24, 2015 07:15 PM
(Total replies: 3)
I've been meaning to complete this and make it user friendly, but I am deciding to put it out there as it is.
This script will export the .ass file compatible with Halo 2 Tool. You can now export your models directly from Blender without having to go through any other 3d software. It supports all shader syntax, instanced geometry, and UV mapping.
This script was created out of necessity, so be prepared for troubleshooting.
Big thanks to zekilk (cyboryxmen on here) for creating the original HCE exporter script for Blender! I referenced it many times while writing this!

I created a script to export from Blender (which spead up the troubleshooting), and finally got the lightmaps to look decent.
I uploaded the map on halomaps and was going to send you the files once Dennis published it. But after one month, 3 PMs to Dennis with no response, and 2 attempts to upload it, I assume he no longer publishes H2V maps :(

Could you send me the default coagulation.sky tag (or any other working sky)? Also, do you have this missing lens flare?:
I've tried test levels with only the metal_light_scratchy material, and the same spotty effect is happening, so it can't be the bitmaps.
Other than the sky tags, what other tags deal with the ray tracing process?

Well that's not the problem either, I ve tried it with only sealed world geometry, same stuff. After I watched the whole thing compile, I did spot these errors:
So, my only guess is that the BSP is too big? This is so frustrating, I even tried a fresh install of the H2 map editor.

Could intersecting geometry with the terrain cause this? Most of the level is polygon stitched with the terrain - but some of the rocks are supposed to be instanced geometry. Could this be the cause of this? And how do you properly set up instanced geometry in 3ds Max?

Sky materials are set to +sky, and I recompiled the bitmaps I changed attributes. Some bitmaps I could not change the format, because I don't have the original TIFF to recompile.
To further the troubleshooting, this test BSP has only the flat_light_scratchy material applied:
I then changed every material in my BSP to flat_light_scratchy (except the sky obviously).
Before lightmaps with everything flat_light_scratchy:
Ater lightmaps with everything flat_light_scratchy (this time I did not get the "warn: can't determine sky index for surface XXXX" error):
The bitmap used in that shader material worked in the test bsp, but not this one. Therefore, it can't be the bitmap format causing the spotty lightmap, correct?
Here are some images of the BSP you asked for:
As you can see, the scenery geometry outside the BSP is quite large (and the material is set to lm:0.05 so it uses a smaller lightmap resolution), so my only guess is the sky would be too great of a distance to raytrace to the surfaces? But that doesn't explain the random spots of lights occurring.

Depending on the usage of the bitmap, you want to compile bitmaps in DXT3, 5 or 32 bit true color. DXT 3 is explicit alpha, DXT 5 is Interpolated and 32 bit true is the highest quality texture. I use 32 bit for all my map work except for when I need a good dingy plasma shader or other type of illum shader. Sometimes depending on the bitmap, you want to use DXt 3 o 5. Here's an example of real quick...
To me it looks as if the alpha channel is what is causing you issues with the lighting. The alpha channel depending on the usage, can occlude light.
Edited by Twinreaper on Oct 24, 2014 at 02:15 AM
Since the lighting is direct only, wouldn't it only occlude the shaders with odd alpha channels in the bitmaps? It even occludes the most basic flat_light_scratchyl bitmap, which has some larger surfaces in direct sunlight. I made another very simple test BSP with only a sky material and the flat_light_scratchy bitmap, and the lighting worked.
Nevertheless, I tried finding nearly every bitmap to every shader I used on this BSP and changed them to 32bit, and recompiled them. I got the same black BSP with light spots on every surface. I didn't change some water shaders, because I don't have to TIFFs to recompile them.
It has been a while since I have tried to get this to work, so I forgot about this error I get in tool while running the lightmap:
warn: can't determine sky index for surface XXXX
The values of XXXX seem to range from 5000 to 6999 and are in random order, so I'm not sure how many surfaces they really are. It shows that error for different surfaces as far as I can scroll up in command prompt.
If the problem is the bitmap format, what formats usually occlude lighting?
Thanks for the help though, it is just really difficult troubleshooting because lighting takes so long to generate. Also, are the www.halo2vista.com forums more active than these? Should I post it there to get more input?

At first glance my initial response would be, that something is occluding the lighting. More information would be great if you can provide it. Such as a quick pic of the actual environment in 3ds max, and what method you are using to run lighting. EX: Using tool command or the Map launcher shortcut.
Personally, I never get this type of lighting generation on anything myself. It could also be the bitmaps you are using. What usage are your bitmaps? DXT1, 2, 5?
I'm sure that there is nothing in the BSP occluding the lighting. I tried removing the player clipping bounderies, and tried a different BSP, with the same results. Also I am using the Map Editor launcher to start, which launches the tool command.
And what are DXT1, 2, and 5 bitmaps? I haven't touched the lightmap bitmap that Tool creates, unless you are talking about bitmaps for BSP shaders.
I remember seeing some lightmap generation options somewhere while using Guerrilla. I thought it was either the sky tag, BSP, or lightmap tag, but I can't find it now. It had options like minimum brightness for the lightmap, which could be relevant.
I appreciate any help.

I'm having trouble generating a lightmap with the Halo 2 Map editor - I'll just post some screenshots of the problem:
The lighting quality is set to Direct Only in these, and any higher setting has similar results. Checkerboard quality does work correctly.
I've tried another BSP, and it has the same results. I know I can just recompile the level without lighting to make it playable, but I obviously want to have a decent lightmap in the map eventually.
If anyone has any idea what the problem is, that'd be great.

Employment discrimination against workers and applicants with disabilities unfortunately remains an all-too-common reality, despite California and federal law prohibiting such practices. Statutes require companies to give fair consideration of applicants regardless of disability, so long as the individual can perform essential functions of the job with reasonable accommodations. Proving disability discrimination, however, can sometimes be difficult though because, as our Los Angeles disability discrimination employment attorneys can explain, employers aren't always blatant about it.

Not so for an incident recently reported by a 19-year-old Virginia man with cerebral palsy. As reported by a local television station, the recent high school graduate explained he arrived for a scheduled interview or an associate position at a home decor retail store. He'd confirmed the appointment via text message before arrival. However when he got there, he said the store manager took one look at him and stated, "Oh, no, we don't hire people with disabilities."

Coach Quenneville rumors are flying like Gritty in the rafters
Dave Hakstol was relieved of his duties as head coach on Monday.
The only positive attention the Philadelphia Flyers have been receiving this season has been focused on their mascot manifestation of Philadelphia's "No one likes us, we don't care" mantra, Gritty. However, Monday's announcement of the firing of Head Coach Dave Hakstol has sparked speculation of Joel Quenneville fulfilling his duties in the future.
In his fourth and final season as Flyers coach, leaving with a record of 134-101-42, Hakstol's release was made public in a statement by Flyers' GM Chuck Fletcher:
"After meeting this morning with Dave Hakstol and thoughtful consideration, I have decided to relieve him of his duties as head coach," he explained. "As I continue to assess the team, I feel that this is the best course of action for our group moving forward. I'd like to thank Dave for his service to the team and the organization. Scott Gordon will serve as head coach on an interim basis."
As Hakstol continuously emitted frustration onto the Flyers' fan base the past few years, the rumors of the availability of Blackhawks' former head coach making headway to Philly are causing an eruption of fan excitement. With an impressive resume of three Stanley Cup wins within the last six years, Philadelphia fans are suggesting that Coach Q may lead the Flyers to the winning identity and large media presence that they have been aggressively patient for these past few seasons.
The second-winningest coach in NHL history, who has denied already accepting an offer in Philadelphia, still remains under contract with the Blackhawks and is due to collect a $6 million salary for the remainder of this season and the next. This implied that the Flyers would need to negotiate with Chicago for any chance of Coach Q heading to Philly.
Chuck Fletcher says he expects Scott Gordon will be #Flyers coach for the remainder of the year. He says he hasn't asked for permission from Chicago to speak to Quenneville and hasn't spoken to him in two years.
— Frank Seravalli (@frank_seravalli) December 17, 2018
The Flyers are currently sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference's Metropolitan division with a 12-15-4 record, which makes hearsay option of Quenneville becoming head coach more desirable to be true. But for now, the only valid attributes of the Flyers is the next game against the Detroit Red Wings at home on Tuesday night (7 p.m. ET) and Gritty's continued-headlining antics.

// Press Sample //
I have two exclusive goodies to show you, only available from Psyche's Beau! The first I'll be showing is a lovely unicorn pee nail polish from Starlight Polish. This will be followed by a pomegranate scented Soy-Based nail polish remover from De Yeu. While the remover is available now, the polish is available for pre-order until November 17 so be sure to have at them! Let's take a look!
Starlight Polish – Khoi
Pschye's Beau celebrated their very first anniversary in October and invited Issa of Starlight Polish to join in their party. Issa created the exclusive shade for the celebration which has returned for a second round of preorder. Khoi is a smokey grey jelly base with original unicorn pigment shifting red to gold to green. It applies beautifully, a bit on the sheerer side which really allows you to see the glow from the UP pigment. I'm wearing three coats with a glossy topcoat.
Fun Fact: Khoi means smoke in Vietnamese!
Soyonara by De Yeu
Next up is this soy-based nail polish remover from De Yeu, scented with pomegranate and also includes an organic pomegranate seed oil which is known for its anti-inflammatory and antipruritic properties. Soy/plant-based polish removers are different from the usual acetone nail polish removers in that they need to soak into the nail to allow for it to take effect. Soyonara is oil based and thus very moisturizing to the nail. After the remover was soaked on for a few seconds, they really didn't require harder than usual rubbing to remove; it was quite easy!
Out of curiosity, I tried removing some glitter polish that I had on my toes and I will say that I was pleasantly surprised by this plant-based remover's muscle. I did have to scrub a bit as I would have had to with an acetone based polish, but I'd say that removal was neck in neck.
While I do appreciate the moisturizing properties of this remover, as a swatcher who has to rapidly change polishes between camera shots, it isn't something I would see myself grabbing regularly. You need to wash your hands after using it which pretty much steals away from my time. For regular polish wearing, I would gladly recommend this as an alternative.
The Starlight Polish Exclusive shade, Khoi is available until November 17 from Psyche's Beau!
Please allow 4 weeks for fulfillment after the end of preorder + 1-2 weeks for delivery.
Price: $16.00
De Yeu's Soyonara Soy Based Polish Remover is now available from Psyche's Beau!
Price: $14.00

About the 32nd International Electric Vehicle Symposium
Invitation to "EVS32, A world of E MOTION"
Sustainable mobility is a core concern for all industrial players and public authorities. It affects both our lifestyles and our economy, as well as facing major changes, such as electrification, connectivity and driverless vehicles. To prepare for these changes, it is essential to fully understand how new technology will be used in future mobility, together with the related business models and issues surrounding social acceptability.
EVS (Electric Vehicles Symposium) is the leading international event to address all these issues. The various components of electric mobility will be on display; from markets to vehicle battery technology (hybrid and hydrogen fuel cell); from motorcycles to trucks, and from charging facilities to related services and public policy.
On behalf of the EVS32 Organising Committee, we warmly invite you to become actively involved in this international event, as a sponsor, exhibitor or participant. The symposium, comprising a scientific congress with a reading comittee, an exhibition and Ride and Drive, is an opportunity for you to promote your products and services, to learn more about the latest technology and developments in related core competencies, and to test new technology in real conditions during vehicle tests. EVS is also the forum where leading personalities from the electric mobility industry come to speak. A platform is also provided for national, regional and European public decision-makers, who will be speaking at plenary sessions, presenting an opportunity to compare public policy with industrial strategy.
EVS32 will take place from 19 May to 22 May 2019 in Lyon, a city that is highly involved in the development of electric mobility. The region is home to research centres, innovation clusters and manufacturers of electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel cells and driverless vehicles. The symposium will be held at the Eurexpo Congress Center situated east of Lyon, between the train station and the airport; an ideal location for driving test vehicles both in urban environments and on main roads and motorways.
Come and join us in Lyon in 2019 to write a new page in the global development of electric mobility and play a role in creating this new «world of e-motion».
De 19/05/2019 - 09:00 au 22/05/2019 - 18:00

Heart Smart Tips And Fresh Best Strawberry Tomato Salsa
Saturated fats go are disguised in other food names. These are in cocoa butter and/or coconut, palm and palm kernel oils. Hydrogenated oil is loaded with harmful trans fats, which, along with saturated fats, are the main dietary cause of high cholesterol.
Snacks sugary packaged and processed snacks are nothing you need for a healthy heart, always reach for fresh whole foods, pears, strawberries, blueberries, apples, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, baby carrots or unsalted nuts.
Drinks I love coffee but too much cola or coffee are not a benefit to your heart. Water with fresh lime or lemons, add a splash of fruit juice, when you realize just how much good it's doing for your body and your heart fresh is always best.
Weight To maintain your weight, make sure you burn as many calories as you take in each day. If you stick with reading nutrition labels and keep a good log or track on this one, learn how to make work by your body weight and goal set this balance has to work for you.
Approximately 200 million Americans are overweight or obese, and doctors are finding that a large waist circumference ups CHD risk. But an even better predictor of getting heart disease is the ratio of your waist size to your hip size—if your waist is wider than your hips, it's definitely time to trim down.
10 Tips for Eating Heart Smart
1. Know good fats from your bad fats and limit them.
2. Eat lean meats and poultry without skin, and prepare them without added saturated and trans fat.
3. Eat at least two servings of fish each week salmon being the first choice.
4. Select fat-free, 1% fat and low-fat dairy products. Dairy is known to build plaque on arteries.
5. Reduce or eliminate consumption of foods containing partially hydrogenated vegetable oils to reduce trans fat in your diet.
6. Cut back on foods high in cholesterol.
7. Cut back on beverages and foods with added sugar, soda is a diffinite no.
8. Eat less salt and prepare foods with little or no salt.
9. Eat a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, soluble fibeer. The fiber from oat bran, beans, nuts and certain fruits wil help lower blood cholesterol and may also help reduce the risk of diabetes.
10. Read labels for heart-healthy ingredients.
Strawberry Tomato Best Salsa:
1 pint fresh strawberries, sliced
4 roma (plum) tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon olive oilIn a large bowl, combine strawberries, tomatoes, chile peppers, garlic, lime juice and oil. Toss all together to mix and coat. Cover dish and refrigerate for 2 hours to chill. Ready to serve!
