VILLANOVA, Pa. – The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs recently announced the results of the Fulbright U.S. Student Program for grants taking place in 2018-2019, with 30 current Villanova University students and alumni recognized by the program. Fifteen Villanova students and alumni won the prestigious award, with an additional eight named alternates and seven earning recognition as semi-finalists. Villanova has had at least one student selected for the coveted award each year since 1994, and has been listed among the nation's top producers of Fulbright Students for the last 10 years. This year marks the largest single-year number of Fulbright awards in the University's history.
"Villanova's recent success in the Fulbright program is remarkable and is a tribute to our fantastic students," said University Provost Patrick G. Maggitti, PhD. "It demonstrates the tremendous support our students receive from faculty and staff while on campus, and highlights our students' desire to take the knowledge and competencies they developed at Villanova and share those talents with the global community. Congratulations to all of our awardees, alternates and semifinalists."
The Fulbright Program is the U.S. government's flagship international educational exchange program, offering students grants to conduct research, study, and teach abroad. Top-producing institutions are highlighted annually in The Chronicle of Higher Education.
Fulbright recipients meet, work with, and learn from the people of the host country, sharing daily experiences. The program facilitates cultural exchange through direct interaction on an individual basis in the classroom, field, home, and in routine tasks, allowing the grantee to gain an appreciation of others' viewpoints and beliefs, the way they do things, and the way they think. Visit the Fulbright Program website to learn more.
The Fulbright competition at Villanova is open to all current students and alumni, and is administered by Villanova's Center for Research and Fellowships (CRF) within the Office of the Provost. Students and alumni create an application for the fellowship program under the direction of the CRF team. The rise in awards won by Villanova applicants this year corresponds to the increasing efforts by CRF to provide both one-on-one consultations and group support for students throughout the application process, including conceptualization of projects, writing and revising proposals, and interview preparation and practice.
"This has been an incredible year, with Villanovans as Finalists for both the Rhodes and Truman Scholarships, record numbers of Goldwater Scholarship and National Science Foundation Fellowship winners, and now a record number of Fulbright winners," said Dr. Michael T. Westrate, Director of CRF. "Such formal recognition is a testament to Villanova's exceptional students, our world-class academics and research, and our outstanding faculty and staff mentors. These Villanovans have excelled—both inside the classroom and beyond it. They have already made a positive impact by dedicating countless hours to service and research. As Fulbright winners, they will have even more impact and become leaders in the global community, joining Villanova's long history of 'Fulbrighters' who are using their gifts to serve others."
Villanova students and alumni interested in applying for external awards, including the Fulbright, should visit the CRF website for more information.

I just know plenty of you out there are trying to make sense of this week's football matches and trying to find a betting site that is giving you access to the very best odds in each match you fancy betting on too.
As such as I often like to do on a Wednesday I am going to be casting my eye over this Fridays nights matches and a few matches that are playing on Saturday that I feel are worth a punt, and will also be letting you know just what odds you can bag on each of the teams I will be predicting to win too.
In fact, all of the matches I have chosen to showcase below are listed up on the Betfred betting site and that betting site is also offering the best odds too on these matches, so that is where you should be placing your bets!
On Friday night I have three tips for you, and they are Llandudno Town to win at home and their current odds to do so are 7/5, I also thing that Aberystwyth Town are certainly worth backing and their odds are surely overpriced at Betfred being as they are chalked up at even money, and the third team worth backing is Gap Connah's Quay at 8/11.
Middlesbrough and Wolverhampton Wanderers
Moving onto Saturday one match that is going to be starting early and is worth a bet is the Middlesbrough v Derby County and I for one have already made use of the even money that Betfred have them chalked up at and think you should do so too.
I do not rate the chances of Brighton & Hove Albion winning their match against Wolverhampton Wanderers and I don't think that match is going to end in a draw too and as such consider taking the 6/4 odds that Betfred are offering on Wolverhampton Wanderers to win that match.
Consider Backing Fulham This Coming Saturday
The Fulham v Afc Bournemouth match that will be in play those coming Saturday is one that I am sure many of you will be betting on and as far as who I think are going to win it, well Fulham are looking like the best bet in that match and their odds of winning are fairly decent too at 17/10.
You are probably not going to want to even consider backing the favourite to win the Liverpool v Cardiff City match as Liverpool are available at very short odds of 1/9 to win that match, but win it they will do, I am convinced of that!
One other match that I would certainly take a good look at if you are planning on placing any number of football bets this weekend, and that is the Southampton v Newcastle United, there should be no way in the world the away team will win that match and as such get lumping on a Southampton win at their current odds of 11/10!

Conformational, Dynamics, apo-GlnBP, Revealed, Experimental, Computational Analysi
The glutamine binding protein (GlnBP) binds l-glutamine
and cooperates with its cognate transporters during glutamine uptake.
Crystal structure analysis has revealed an open and a closed
conformation for apo- and holo-GlnBP, respectively. However, the
detailed conformational dynamics have remained unclear. Herein, we
combined NMR spectroscopy, MD simulations, and single-molecule FRET
techniques to decipher the conformational dynamics of apo-GlnBP. The NMR
residual dipolar couplings of apo-GlnBP were in good agreement with a
MD-derived structure ensemble consisting of four metastable states. The
open and closed conformations are the two major states. This four-state
model was further validated by smFRET experiments and suggests the
conformational selection mechanism in ligand recognition of GlnBP.

"Doug, what do I need to know about recreating on Game and Fish or public lands during the winter in Wyoming?"
"Doug, what do I need to know about recreating on Game and Fish or public lands during the winter in Wyoming?"
Winter is a great time to recreate, and Wyoming offers a variety of opportunities. However, winter is also an extremely important time of year for big game animals such as elk, mule deer, moose, pronghorn antelope, and bighorn sheep. In order to survive tough Wyoming winters, these animals build up fat reserves in the summer and rely on those reserves to get them through until spring. These precious fat reserves can be depleted more quickly if animals are moved into lower quality habitats or if they are forced to move more often. Since surviving winter is all about conserving energy and waiting for spring, losing fat reserves too fast can have serious impacts.
In an effort to give wintering animals the best chance possible to survive the winter, Game and Fish and public land management agencies like the United States Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management implement seasonal closures on winter ranges. Depending upon the area, these closures can vary from no human presence at all, to prohibiting motorized vehicles, to leash requirements on pets. In some areas, designated routes through winter ranges allow access to popular recreation sites. Dates for these closures vary, but are usually in place between December and May.
Information on specific winter wildlife closures can be found on the websites of land management agencies, of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department, or you can call local offices. Don't let winter keep you from enjoying Wyoming's wonderful outdoors, just keep in mind that the wildlife we all enjoy are also out there also.

America�s largest enclave in Afghanistan, Bagram Airfield, was home to more than 40,000 people, most of whom never leave the base, says Edmund Clark, who has recorded the everyday spaces in which they live and their limited views of the country they are occupying.
Our impression of war is shaped by images of soldiers on patrol or in combat. Actually, points out photographer Edmund Clark, the vast majority of the 40,000 people who were stationed at Bagram Airfield � America�s largest enclave in Afghanistan � never left�it.
Protected, but also confined, by perimeter walls that are secured by daily patrols, they lived in mess halls, meeting rooms, sleeping quarters, a supermarket and a gym. Their experience of Afghanistan is restricted to the landscape they can see over the walls, images of the country on murals in the meeting rooms and paintings in the dining facility, a weekly bazaar and 7000 security-screened local workers who provide cooking and cleaning services.
Some of the personnel may also meet locals in the Parwan Detention Facility, the on-site jail whose treatment of prisoners has attracted Amnesty International�s attention. Insurgents based in the mountains also sporadically take pot-shots at the camp, launching rudimentary missiles that may or may not go off.
Clark has previously shot the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base and a British control order house, and gained access to Bagram by being embedded with the US military and International Security Assistance Force (ISAF).
Despite this, he was not allowed to photograph the detention facility. Nor did he particularly want to � he was interested in looking at the base itself through its physical or structural presence, in particular at its infrastructure, food, water and power, and through the quotidian places most of the troops never leave.
�I am looking at Bagram as a western and particularly American experience,� he says. �We have seen a lot from Afghanistan showing military engagements with the Taliban or armoured vehicles dealing with improvised explosive devices, but very little showing the experience of the vast majority of people who have served there, most of whom are non-combatants.�
Clark was fascinated by the technological feat of running such a huge facility. Originally built in the 1950s, and a Soviet airbase from 1979 to 1989, Bagram swelled to become a 15 sq km facility since 2001 and the start of Operation Enduring Freedom.
It was, at the height of the war, the busiest military airfield in the world, hosting aircraft and drones with evocative names such as Liberty, Predator and Reaper, and underpinned with power and water plants, a state-of-the-art sewage treatment centre and recycling facilities.
�This is an occidental enclave showing all the sophistication of the world�s most advanced military superpower,� says Clark. �And yet, after 13 years of war, the Taliban and other groups were�still there, waiting for the duration with inferior weapons, hidden in the environment, their biggest ally. This tactic, and the imbalance of technology, is typical of conflicts of resistance.�
For Clark, the mountains around Bagram�s concrete perimeter fence suggest the gulf in technology, understanding and experience between the western bases of Operation Enduring Freedom and the country they occupy. His photographs were taken with a state-of-the-art digital Hasselblad in a deliberate echo of western technological prowess.
�The way I have taken the images is as much a part of the process as the images themselves,� he says.
The Mountains of Majeed�were exhibited in�a stand-alone series at Flowers Gallery late last year, as well as being�published in a portfolio-style book with Here Press, which includes photographs of the mountains around the base and reproductions of paintings of Afghan mountainscapes by an artist called Majeed that Clark found on the walls of one of the Bagram dining facilities.
�There is distance between the mountains,� he writes, in a text that appears in the book. �Vistas of tranquillity fabricated by hand from canvas, wood and paint. Images from an enclave captured in high resolution by the latest digital technology. And there is common ground. Both are simulacra of enduring freedom, and in both the mountains belong to Majeed.�

Uncomfortable in the limelight, I feel far more at home championing others, and focusing my time on making a real difference. Alongside my Somewhere work, I enjoy working with FE and HE students with learning differences, disabilities, mental health issues, and those who identify as neurodivergent. I have also enjoyed volunteering as an Enterprise E-Mentor for The Prince's Trust over the last couple of years.
I believe wholeheartedly in creating social change through innovation, culture and learning. The Somewhere social enterprise idea combines this core purpose with academic research and a passion for doing my bit for equality, diversity and inclusion.
Somewhere's pioneering work is the realisation of my own personal authentic life and is driven by courage in overcoming my own experiences of disability, invisibility and shame, to reimagine a different future for myself and, hopefully, for many others too.
"As a queer person working in the LGBT sector for almost a decade, I'm compelled to keep an open mind about what Community means for myself and others, and how life for LGBTQ+ people in Scotland is evolving.
Along with developing inclusive social programmes for LGBT Health and Wellbeing, I also work closely with Trans communities and families to improve wellbeing and access to support and whilst I love creating a sense of community, I also love being reminded that change, learning and acceptance of difference is vital.
I imagine the 'LGBTQ+ Community' can for many, feel like a concept, a buzz-phrase or someone else's idea, and it can for me sometimes too. But here in Edinburgh, it has also felt like a real physical experience for me, that can heal, support, connect and enrich myself and others around me.
Until shame (internalised or directed), discrimination and inequality is a thing of the past, there will always be a need for safe, affirmative LGBTQ+ spaces and I'm thrilled to be involved in some of them here in Edinburgh.
I'm most excited about Somewhere being able to create experiences that never make you question whether you belong. And where the systems and people around you enable you to recognise your own power and a pride in your identity."
Thomas is the founder of Inclusive Networks - an organisation that celebrates and promotes diversity and inclusion all over the UK via their award-winning website, social media accounts, reward and recognition initiatives and innovative events.
In 2017 Inclusive Networks won two awards at the Business Innovator Awards - 'Best Workplace Inclusion Network' and 'Innovation Award for Networking Events'.
Thomas is the former Chair of The Co-op's award-winning LGBT staff network 'Respect'. During his tenure the organisation became the No1 Private Sector employer for LGBT people in the UK and the most followed and active employee network group in Europe.
He was also a driving force behind the launch of the UK's first Inter-Retail LGBT+ network, 'CheckOUT', he contributed to the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index 5 Year review and has shared his experience at various workplace conferences and staff network events around the UK and Europe, including Adidas (Germany), Stonewall (Cardiff) and PwC (Manchester).
In recognition of his work in the diversity field he was shortlisted for 'Diversity Champion of the Year' at the European Diversity Awards in 2013.

Stock market strategies need to be perceived before initiating an investment. Stock market investment can be a way of grabbing fast money if proper ways and stock market investment strategies are followed. While maximizing wealth and gains in personal finance by investing in stock markets, it is necessary to have a clear insight regarding effective stock market strategies.
It is prudent for an investor to consult with financial advisors to have a clear guidance related to stock-picking methodologies. Expert financial analysts are well aware about intrinsic values of the corporations.There is no foolproof system of understanding the stock market strategies. Experience and capabilities of business analysis clubbed with sharp idea about the market pulse can be of great help while investing in stocks.
According to Encyclopedia Britannica concise, stock exchange may be defined as� Organized market for the sale and purchase of securities (see security) such as stocks and bonds.�
(http://concise.britannica.com/search?query=stockl+market+investments), and the word �strategies� mean �In warfare, coordinated application of all the forces of a nation to achieve a goal.�
(http://concise.britannica.com/search?query=strategies). It can be said that a systematic approach of an investor for investing in the stock market for achieving desired financial goals is his/her individual stock market strategy.
Stock market strategies should depend upon various factors and these strategies also involve high market risks.
Some of the following factors should be considered while investing:
Tangible and intangible assets of the company that offering shares
Exponential growth of the company.
Previous returns offered by the company
There are different methodologies of market analysis and the main two are as follows:
Fundamental analysis: Financial statements and facts and figures of a company are studied in this process. There are varied tools and techniques of fundamental analysis.
Technical analysis: Quantitative techniques are followed and the company's performances and the undervalued companies are identified.
Stock market strategies largely depend upon the type of investment, it may considerably differ from day to day trading and long-term investment. Vivid knowledge, education and ideas about investment can help in developing better stock market strategies.
Effective share market strategies can help in achieving desired financial goals, the following table portrays the growth in the leading stock trading center NASDAQ:

Wednesday Night Bible Study - Questions and Answers
By Dr. Wesley A. Swift
QUESTION:----I thought Jeremiah was supposed to be St. Patrick but I see in one periodical that Patrick claimed that pirates seized young men on the west coast of Ireland, and sold them as slaves, and that he was one of them, and he died in England at the little Wattle church?
ANSWER:------This is all a fallacy, the one known as Allah Follo was also St. Patrick, and Jeremiah, and is buried in Ireland, this is known as the burial place of St. Patrick, who was Jeremiah. The tradition says that he drove all the snakes out of Ireland. Jewry tried to get into that portion of Ireland where Black Irish are supposed to be, and Jeremiah drove all the Jews out of that area. They were called Black Irish because of their dress, and their hatred of the Jews. But Jeremiah drove all the snakes out of that area. Jeremiah and St. Patrick are one and the same not withstanding these stories which paint a picture of pirates that you mentioned.
QUESTION:----Genesis 7:21---says all flesh died and from Noah and his three sons was all the whole earth repopulated---how do you explain that?
ANSWER:------But it does not say that---"All flesh died that moved upon the earth both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing which crept upon the earth." This is all flesh that dwelt in that country, the word is --Eret-- in Hebrew this means all that place or that area. But the flood of Noah's time did not cover all the whole earth.
Now; Genesis 9:17 --"This is the covenant I have established between me and thee" --- and all flesh that is upon the earth. But who went forth from the ark --- only Noah, Ham, Shem, and Japhet. These are the three sons of Noah and Vs: 19---- was the whole earth overspread. It does not say that by them was the whole earth repopulated.
Remember that he makes the statement that he divided the nations of the heathens according to the household of Noah, thus Noah's sons were a continuation of the Covenant made with Seth, that the promise was that the seed of the Adamic race was going to overthrow the earth. The book of Enoch and the book of Seth clearly make this clear. And Noah also thru Ham, Shem and Japhet especially thru Shem from whom the Abrahamic line would carry on this promise and the world would then be overspread with the Shem line, from which the kingdom was to come. This just meant that the Adamic or White race is to spread out and occupy the earth, but it did not mean that they were the fathers of all the people of the earth. The Negroes had existed thousands of years before this so by no stretch of the imagination did they come from Noah. Some say that the Negroes came from Cain, because he put a mark on Cain, but no the negroes did not come from Cain. They had been here long before Cain.
Now; Cain did kill Abel, and was driven out from the Adamic people, the original Eden, but by no stretch of the imagination were the Negroes from Cain. Then you hear some people say that the Negroes came from Ham, but no, Ham is the son of Noah and a white an, and Nimrod came from the Ham line, and he was the ruler of a great civilization, in Chaldea which finally was taken over and brought down, but he was a white man. Then Terah the father of Abraham, a Shemite was Prime Minister under Nimrod. You can run the line back from Abraham thru Terah, Shem, Noah, and back to Seth and Adam. But Terah wasn't a Prime Minister under a Negro ruler, no way. Nimrod was referred to as a mighty hunter, he gained great fame until in this city built by him he started to break the law he was raised under. The false Priests gradually came into his kingdom, and they brought in the women of India for his harem, and the Negroes from Africa, so in Nimrods harem were women from India, Asiatics from the Steppes, and the Negroes from Africa. Of course they brought the most beautiful of the women from all races that they could acquire to the court of Nimrod. And in Nimrod's Empire now the policy of mongrelizing the races was started. Thus this was also the starting of mongrelization of the Ham line.
Now; the Shem line was found here in the kingdom of Nimrod because Terah was from Shem and he was the Prime Minister under Nimrod. But part of the line of Shem had gone on into the land of Moab and other places. But then God called Abraham out of this land of Nimrod because Abrahams line still had purity and He wanted to maintain it. Abraham as a boy had been sent to the caves where Noah was residing and there he was taught the laws of God. When Abram was brought back to his fathers house remember the trouble he got into because of all the gods his father had in his home, big gods, and little gods of wood and of stone. Terah thought he must do this to stay on the good side of Nimrod, but Abram the boy challenged his father because of these pagan gods. Terah said:--- you must not talk this way, for these are the gods of Ur of the Chaldeas and you must worship them.
Now; remember that at the time of the birth of Abram a star was in conjunction, in a constellation that confirmed the birth of Abram---and Wisemen came to Nimrod and they said:--- there is one born tonight according to the message in the stars who is to be a great and mighty ruler, the father of many nations, his seed will eventually spread out over the entire earth, and rule in a might kingdom with the God who set up this constellation.
Nimrod said:---when was he born, where, oh, here, then we will slay all the babies born this night. Terah hearing this sent Abram and his mother and a servant to the home of Noah, and there they stayed until years later when Nimrod had forgotten this. Then Abram came back to his fathers house and here were all these gods in the temple in the home of Terah. The story of this is in the book of Jasher. Telling how Abram took a dish of pottage into this room and set it down and then took an ax and chopped all these pagan gods into pieces.
Abram was then called before his father Terah, the Prime Minister and the ruler Nimrod to explain if he did this. Abram said:----oh, no he just took the bowl of food in to his fathers gods and the little god started to eat first so the big god was angry and he chopped all of them all up and hurt himself. Both Nimrod and Terah then said:---- that cannot because those gods are only wood and stone, they can't do anything. So Abram had them here admitting these were no gods, so he asked them why then did they worship these gods if they had no power? Well Nimrod was caught -- before this court which he had summoned, and brought Abram before, for if he denounced Abram now then he would prove that he was foolish, so he just nodded and let Abram go. But the Wisemen of Nimrods court warned saying:---this is the one we warned you about years ago when he was born. And once again Abram had to leave his fathers house with his servants. But God called Abram out of the land of the Chaldeas and Terah resigned as Prim Minister and went with him.
Now; Nimrod was getting on in years and he was very foolish but he was not a negro, these offspring of Ham had no capacity to begat Negroes. Some people sit that Ham married a Canaanite woman but this in not true. Cainanities came thru the flood on the Ark as with this woman but that also is not true. Ham committed incest, and the child Canaan was not permitted to be listed in the inheritance. He was to be a servant to his brothers. This is exactly laid out in the Hebrews text, this being the uncovering of his father's nakedness -- that Ham committed incest with his mother. Always in that time incest in the family was referred to as uncovering his father's nakedness. As far as the child of this incest, he was to be a servant of his brothers, not a leader of the family, but he wasn't black. The Ham line would however eventually be absorbed in earth.
The Japhet line moved out thru the cataracts which were cutting trails out of that high country and they came down, at least most of them, into areas of China, and then eventually the Japhet line was absorbed in time in Asia.
Now; the 31st. Chapter of Ezekiel tells you that the Assyrian Empire was strong in the days of Eden, and still there later when some of the Ham line went there, and gradually were absorbed. The Negroes were on earth before the flood, and after the flood, but they never made an Empire. There has never been a record of a Negro Empire on the face of the earth except the Marmaduke Empire in Egypt which was a mongrelized kingdom and it did not last long.
QUESTION:----Does a child have any of the mothers blood in it? If the child has her blood in it then how could the child Jesus have been without spot or blemish?
ANSWER:-----Well in the first place the father and the mother equally in the process of mitosis (the process of the multiplication of cells) which is the basic pattern of spermiogenesis --- there is an equal division of the chromosome of the father and the mother. These chromosomes --- splitting up in the original sperm and ovum form the body of the child. And as this begins to expand the child begins to expand the child begins to produce the organs of the body. The mother and the father both determine the character of the blood, whether an RX factor or an O Positive and so forth. This determined by the genes of both the mother and the father. The color of the eyes, the color of the hair and so forth is determined by both parents. Mary was thus the mother of the body of God, and a part of her, out of the seed of the House of David was in this body, but THE BLOOD IS ANOTHER FACTOR. The blood is formed in the child, the mothers blood does not flow thru the veins of the child. This blood is formed out of the background patterns of the Father and the mother. Both are necessary in forming the child, but the blood of the child is formed by the child is formed BY THE CHILD, and this is why the father of your child is so important because the heritage of your child comes from the Father's lineage, and from the father comes a certain something which lets the child develop its own blood.
Alright now; --- Christ was a lamb of God because he was conceived BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, thus without spot or blemish. And his blood was produced by his body being conceived in the Virgin Mary.
QUESTION:----Well, why would the questioner consider that the blood of the baby Jesus was not without spot or blemish even if it was Mary's blood ?
ANSWER:------Well the fact of the matter is that the modernists question this. They say that Mary was of the human race, therefore Mary's blood was in Jesus the Christ, and it was not any more pure than anyone else, therefore Christ could not cleanse anyone from sin. This is just something they can't seem to understand. This was however, YAHWEH himself and he could do anything.
QUESTION:-----Dr. Swift, my opinion is that there could have been some of Mary's blood in Jesus, and even a drop could change things.
ANSWER:------Well I don't care what your opinion is, this is simply not true, if you understand mitosis, if you understand the biological aspect of birth you would understand that there is not one drop of the mothers blood in the child, and there is not one drop of the fathers blood either as far as that is concerned, but the genealogy (the science of heredity) of a line will determine the type of the line, but the blood of the baby is of itself. And the ascendancy is --- "Kind begats like kind" --- "Seed having life in itself" --- thus the holy spirit by the process of the Immaculate conception projected the 'seed' of YAHWEH into the womb of the Virgin Mary. (In other words YAHWEH thought and the Virgin conceived --- this was the WILL OF YAHWEH, so he could come forth out of your race as your savior).
QUESTION:----A Christian Negro, where do they go when they die ? Do they get reincarnated after the Millennium? It seems as tho the Negroes get cheated out of the resurrection?
ANSWER:-----No, they are not getting cheated at all. They should be glad that the Grace of god will eventually take care of them. And no -- the Negroes do not reincarnate, they do not have such a spirit. It is the Asiatics who seem to have a scope within their pattern of reincarnation --- definitely a type of Karma. But the Negroes do not have a spirit as does the other societies, he fell much lower than did even the others in the rebellion of Lucifer. (In fact was cloned ??)
But lets face it most of this Bible is written to Israel, and his seed. When God talks about coming back and bringing his Angelic hosts with HIM then He is not talking about the Negroes. For the Negroes did not come from the dimensions of the heaven to begin with, only from some planet in space. When they die they are dead until their resurrection. The soul is incarnate within a body but this is referred to as sleeping. People make a great mistake thinking the doctrine of soul sleep is for everybody.
They think we all sleep until resurrection day. The words they refer to is those of the Apostle Paul when he talks about those who sleep in Christ, actually it refers to death when the body dies, the spirit descends unto YAHWEH FROM WHEN IT CAME. The Apostle Paul proved this as he said:--- "For me to live is Christ, to die is gain, for absent from this body is to be present with the LORD." So Paul was not planning on just going to sleep somewhere. But the Negro when he dies has death, and then he sleeps.
But God does say he will raise all flesh, and this is a resurrection after the millennium which refers to all flesh. As far as God is concerned with Negro Christians --- the Negro receives certain areas of religion, but you had to have a white man teach them, or they go right back to the witch doctor even in this land. But as far as God is concerned he extends again life to all flesh, for He says:--- "All flesh shall be saved" but the resurrection which takes place when Christ returns from the heavens with his sons and daughters, the people who will resurrect --- or be restored at that time will be his people from Adam on down to our time. He is not going to resurrect the Cainanites or all the rascals because they are in for a bad time at his coming. But the Negro, this person asking this question --- probably knows some Negroes who are kind of nice, and who respond to the teaching of Christ. We used to have a settlement of them here and they were Christians, they hadn't heard of a devil god. They were Christian after a fashion, but the Negro religion is not moral or amoral, they believe the stories and some have white blood in them, and they can understand better. The Negroes wanted to build a church out there and the preacher and some of his group went down to Rickebackers and they stole turkeys and took them down on Spring street and sold them to the Jews who knew they were stolen. They made about 12 trips and finally they caught these Negroes and one of them was the good Negro Ezra Carver, he used to come over here once in a while and borrow some money, and generally he would pay you back with chickens, and now I know where they came from They hauled them all in before the judge, their Negro Preacher with them, and they said we didn't do anything wrong. That man has so many more turkeys than he can eat, and they didn't even miss them for a long time. They said , we had to have money to build our church, we now have the walls up, so its for a good cause. The Judge said:--- but you stole those Turkeys. --They said:--- our Preacher was with us so what is wrong? Well this is just normal --- Negroes do these things and they don't think anything about it, along with the children of God. It is better when they accept who the right God is because they have been following Witch doctors and every thing else. It is without doubt that if they accept Christ then they come to a better resurrection than those who do not. But in the fullness of Time God is going to raise all flesh, and all these pagans will be restored, put back where they came from. Remember that there were no Negroes on the earth when god created the heavens and the earth, and put the Turanian man on earth. The Negroes came in on the ships of Lucifer during his rebellion. But all things are going to be restored, and when they are put back there somewhere out in the Milky Way, they can be restored to what they were in the beginning. So the Negroes aren't cheated out of anything. I think if they find out who the right God is, will be treating them as well as they can be treated. It will take a lot of Grace to restore these people to where they came from. In fact the white race has been rather good to the Negroes, also, they have tried to establish missions in all these lands and help these people.
Now; along comes Father Devine and started a settlement out here in Palm Dale and Peach was wonderful, and now they were worshiping Father Devine and not Christ. Then the Mohammed X movement came along and they had another god, the Shambazi god. So now these Negroes aren't Christians for they worship this new god of the Mohammed X movement. So --- the Negroes since they die, and they sleep until their resurrection which is after the millennium then this is different from the white man.
QUESTION:---- What I don't understand is --- since our spirits return to the Father then why resurrect these imperfect bodies ?
ANSWER:------ Well, because with god it is absoluteness --- spirit, soul, and body. God is spirit, soul, and body and the body of the man Christ Jesus had was existent in spirit before the world was framed. So here is the mystery of the accomplishment of the Virgin Mary, she totally encompassed the seed of a man --- by His spirit, he produced the body he had before the world was framed --- thru the Virgin Mary. But as Christ raised from the dead then remember there was no broken bone, it was kept in perfect shape altho the spirit had departed but that human body was dead.
QUESTION:---- But he had a hole in his side and hands and feet did he not ?
ANSWER:------Yes, but that did not make any difference that just let the blood out. When he resurrected the holes were healed.
But remember --- YAHWEH promised a Resurrection --- and "If the dead rise not then why did Christ raise from the dead ?" -- See.
The triumph of Christ's resurrection from the dead is that the bodies of the Adamic race shall be resurrected because they are a divine race. But they did not have bodies like this in the Celestial, it was only in bodies thru Adam that they had their earth occupation. So the story of resurrection is told thru out all the prophecy and as Christ raised from the dead he showed you that this is true. In fact in the books of Seth and of Enoch it talks about the resurrection. They believed in the resurrection, and the true Pharisees taught the laws of Moses and the resurrection, while the Sadducees were reincarnationist out of the areas of Asia, and they taught reincarnation. They even tried to trap Jesus in this saying:--- whose wife is this one going to be in the resurrection. So it doesn't matter what the Sadducees teach they will sell their life for money and gold, and think they are coming back and pick it up again. The Jews will defend their gold, will sell their lives before turning it loose. They have done this always because they believe that their race reincarnates and comes right back again. They work for their race and their wealth, they think they will come right back and get it. You can read this in their Talmud, this is their concept. But the children of the Kingdom are the children of resurrection. And these true Pharisees, who were Israelites taught and believed in the Resurrection. And their Sanhedrin reflected this belied until the Sadducees managed to get control of the Sanhedrin which they held at the time of Christ. But Gamaliel and the Apostle Paul were both raised believing in the resurrection, and the Resurrection is true and is for us.
Now; it does not matter what happens to the elements of this body altho we have basically buried the body from the days of Adam on down, we bury them until the resurrection. This was taught to Enoch and to Job and they taught it in ancient Egypt --- for there it was --- The Ka of Ra -- LORD of Life and Resurrection. The soul life of YAHWEH was Osiris, or YAHSHUA Christ, and they taught how he would cross the river Styx (which was the gulf in the Netherworld between Paradise and the area where the spirits of Adamites were held), and how he would deliver them by his power. So life and Resurrection was taught by the Adamic race from the beginning, and because God had promised from the beginning that he would restore --- them spirit, soul, and body. ---- a perfect man or woman.
QUESTION:---- What about cremation?
ANSWER:------The elements can be preserved but it is not a proper ritual. I will say this: -- God does not honor or require cremation. The fact remains that burial has been the practice from Adam on down. The pagans cremate, the Hindu cremate and they believe they go thru cycles coming back as an ant, or a better Bramah and so forth, but they cremate. So the process of cremation belongs to the pagans. The children of Adam do not do this. In the Temples of Baal they cremated, and when the Midianites followed Baal they cremated. Then in our Christian time some got the idea to cremated and put the ashes in an urn because ---- "The seas will give up their dead, and if burned with fire, the fire will give up its dead".
Now; I do not believe in Cremation, sometimes there is a funeral and a cremation, and you burn them, but I do not believe in cremation. It was not the practice of Adam. We taught the Egyptians how to embalm, unless there is a 24 hour or 36 hour burial where they did not embalm, then we follow this practice of embalming before burial.
QUESTION:----Dr. Swift can you give me any proof that man lived before the Gorilla, or monkey line ? I never did buy the idea that we came from monkeys, but Colleges and Universities are still teaching it as tho it were a fact.
ANSWER:-----Some do teach it even tho they know its not right. But there is no area where they can prove that there has been a change from one specie to another. There may be a difference in height or something like that but then ---"Like begats like kind". Dr. Leakie has the fossils of a man, one half million years old, and the fossils of the Gorilla or Ape are not nearly that long ago so the man was before the monkey, and archaeology has proved it. Dr. Ivor Lissner talks about the finding man 500,000 years ago, and before the creatures he was supposed to have sprung from. When we look at the Java man they had the fossils of man and animals here, and then they tested them and found there was different time factors involved here, and they tore it up, but they never removed it from the text books. They had bones here of monsters of apes, and giant men, but they were trying to tie them together, and call it the "Missing Link" but they found they had different time factor, the giant men and giant animals and the ordinary man were different time factors, the giant men and giant animals and the ordinary man were different time factors, the giants did not go back as far even as man. So evolution stopped about 11,000 to 13,000 years ago. But there is no reason why it would stop if men had been coming from monkeys they would still be coming from monkeys, the evolution process would still be going on.
The evolution story is fantastic anyway, they said the need for some organ for a body would develop from protoplasm or down from the procreative purpose. Well if the protoplasm finally got a bump on it then gradually it became a man, that is very hard to understand. They say there is one ten millionth chance that a type of creature would evolve in doublets and be able to mate and produce a third. This is the weak point involution, and even Darwin admits this. So if you run into millions of conditions to be able to produce --- then even Darwin said:-- to conceive that the eye with all that it consist of could have evolved --- it had to be imposed. So if you have to super impose they eye to get the man why try to evolve him to begin with --- this is the fallacy of evolution.
But the Apes and all these creatures were created, seed having life and each after its own kind, (Genesis 1:12) "And the earth brought forth fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind, and the tree yielding its fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind, and god saw that it was good." --- Vs:20 --- "The water just brought forth abundantly, the fish did not all die in the great flood, the moving creatures which hath life. And fowl that fly above the earth, the great whale and every living creature after his kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the field after their kind. So the mammals all propagate by mitosis, and they populate the earth. This then tells us that God made monkeys, just like he made elephants and anything else.
We had prehistoric animals and elephants were sort of a carryover but the monkey was not around when many of these prehistoric animals like the dinosaur was around. The next creation after Genesis 1:2 --- when HE made the earth void is different that the first, the time maybe hundreds of thousands of years between those of Genesis one and the time he put man (Adam) on earth.
QUESTION:---- If the seventh world power of the book of revelation is Genghis Khan, then that does not fit for it did not cover the whole earth ?
ANSWER:-----Well this is probably talking about 7 kings of Revelation 17:10, for there was Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome which was in power in the time of Christ, and the next was the seventh power to come against Christian civilization. They had used the sixth before this to try to destroy Israel, and now they used this seventh beast system of Genghis Khan, and there is nothing that says this has to cover the whole earth, but Genghis Khan conquered all of Asia, and then hurled his armies at Europe, the known habitation of western Christian civilization. He swept into china and into the mid-east and then on into Europe, but YAHWEH STOPPED HIM before he conquered all of Christendom with a wound right unto death. He did not conquer Christendom, but his kingdom was conquering almost all the civilized world. And Genghis Khan was the 7th., force to come and he continued for a short time, then the 8th., force is to come out of the seventh and then it will go into perdition. So the present Communist hoard has come out of the last Beast System and Jewry is the false prophet of this system which gathered up the hoards of World Communism. The Jews went back into Russia, or Asia, the very same area where Genghis Khan and his family ruled, and all the 58 different types of people were under the power of the Genghis Khan family until the German Princes conquered the Russias. But the 8th., system they took over more than the Areas of Russia when Jewry once again financed the 8th., Beast system --- world Communism to throw it at the Western Christian world. This is the system which will increase until the climax is reached which we are always building toward.
But always remember that the Kingdom will conquer Communism and it does go into perdition, do not forget that.

Where In The World Is Tony Woods
I am currently producing the Tony Woods travel show "Where In The World Is Tony Woods" set to shoot the pilot episode in Nigeria. So I have spent some time selling Tony Woods on the idea of producing the show out of Nigeria, but I think he still needs a little bit more push from you guys.
If you want to see Tony Woods eat amala and ewedu soup in Dugbe, Ibadan or pounded yam and ila in Ilesa tell him. If you want to see Tony Woods do stand up by the barber shop in Obalende, Lagos, see him get his chieftaincy from the village of his ancestors in Enugu state, pull his coat.

I had the pleasure of tagging along with our oldest child and his fellow students to the Des Crossley Demonstration Forest, near Rocky Mountain House today. Despite the rain, it was a fabulous day ... both educational and fun!
Not only did the kids get some fantastic information on this demonstration forest and the trees within it but they also caught a glimpse of the rare Venus Slipper Orchid and a Brain Mushroom!!! Seeing the kids asking so many great questions and being enthusiastically involved was delightful! I know when I was going to school, I loved field trips and as a parent tagging along ... I loved this field trip as well!

Music We Loved This Week: Ghostface ft. the Weeknd, Foos, Aubrie Sellers, and more
A few million of you are still hopping on that Adele train, but that's not the only good music you need. Here are six tracks we can't stop spinning. (But yeah, you do still need Adele).
The Weeknd ft. Ghostface Killah, "Tell Your Friends"
Kanye West manned the boards for "Tell Your Friends," the luxuriously soulful jam on the Weeknd's Beauty Behind the Madness. West himself doesn't guest on the original version and the track has a conspicuous, stellar-rap-verse-sized hole. Ghostface Killah remedied that problem this week, spitting some bars over West's topshelf beat to finally complete the picture. And don't fear, Weeknd purists — singer Abel Tesfaye's vocal contributions remain intact on this extended remix. —Eric Renner Brown
Foo Fighters, Saint Cecilia EP
America's rock band dropped this low-stakes EP — five songs recorded quickly at Austin's Hotel Saint Cecilia while the group was in town for the Austin City Limits festival — days before Thanksgiving as a token of gratitude to fans and a show of support for the victims of November's terrorist attacks in Paris. It's as unhinged as the band has sounded in years, from the fiery thrash metal on "Savior Breath" to the riffed-out alt-rock goodness of "Sean." —ERB
Aubrie Sellers, "Light of Day"
Like her mother Lee Ann Womack, Sellers knows how to deliver a lyric in such a way that builds a whole universe. But the rest of her musical makeup seems to borrow from the traditions of other genres—specifically, the slinking roots of classic southern soul-rock. Her latest is about being stuck in a rut and seeing no way out. It's no light tale to kick off your weekend, but a good old fashioned brooding session sure can feel nice. Sellers' New City Blues is out in January, and selfishly we're hoping she doesn't cheer up before then. —Madison Vain
Daye Jack ft. Killer Mike, "Hands Up"
Hip-hop heads have become accustomed to hearing Killer Mike's verses alongside El-P's concussive beats — it's a match made in heaven and a large reason why the pair has been so successful as Run the Jewels. But Mike had a long rap career before connecting with El-P, and "Hands Up," his fresh track with fellow Atlantan Daye Jack, is a nice return to form. The warm cut addresses police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement, both topics Mike frequently emphasizes on and off stage. —ERB
Charlie Hilton ft. Mac DeMarco, "100 Million"
This week's helping of slack-rock comes courtesy of Blouse's Charlie Hilton, who's releasing her solo album in January. Labelmate Mac DeMarco hops on the track, which is produced by Jarvis Taveniere of Woods. As unusually warm weather hits much of the country this weekend, "100 Million" feels a little like a final gasp of summer. —ERB
Lily & Madeleine, "Hourglass"
The little fuzzy moments in between waking and dreaming are always hazy and here, sister-duo Lily & Madeleine explore that state of mind. "Hourglass" is a musical dreamscape that begs, "Let me stay where I am," and we couldn't agree more. —MV

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) on Monday denied allegations by the oil minister that the conduct of its group managing director lacked transparency as a public rift between the firm and the ministry widened, according to a Reuters report.
The tension between the oil ministry and NNPC came into the public eye when a letter of complaint to the president from Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu, Nigeria's oil minister, dated Aug. 30 was made public and confirmed by the ministry.
Kachikwu's letter alleged NNPC Group Managing Director (GMD) Maikanti Baru had bypassed the company board on key decisions, including the allocation of contracts, and did not follow due process.
The minister also said Baru's recent appointments should be suspended pending a review. Nigerian lawmakers last week passed a motion to investigate the allegations.
"The allegations were baseless and due process has been followed in the various activities," NNPC said in an emailed statement.
"It is important to note from the outset that the law and the rules do not require a review or discussion with the minister of state or the NNPC board on contractual matters," the state oil company said.
The NNPC statement did not address Kachikwu's allegations that Baru had made key appointments without the usual oversight of the minister or the board.
In a separate statement on Monday, NNPC said Nigeria's two main oil worker trade unions had given their support to the state oil firm.
"We just want to tell the GMD from the bottom of our hearts that we are with him and the top management; that we are behind the GMD who has done very well in turning the fortunes of the corporation around," said Mathew Duru, a Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria official, according to the statement.
NNPC, on its Twitter feed, said: "Following publication of alleged lack of due process in the award of contracts, Pres. @MBuhari ordered GMD @NNPCgroup @DrMKBaru to respond."
Kachikwu met with President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday after the letter was leaked last week.

Apple's Product Pipeline: Stating the ObviousApril 3rd, 2013
The media has made a big deal out of a report quoting an Apple official as saying that Steve Jobs approved the next two iPhone revisions before he died. If true, that would be treated as some sort of spectacularly unexpected revelation. The assumption has been that everything Steve Jobs did for Apple ended on his death bed.
So, therefore, with Apple's resident genius gone, Tim Cook has been unable to recreate the magic. Or at least that's what many suggest.
The truth is, of course, more complicated. Knowing his time was short, it makes sense for Jobs to use much of his remaining strength to work on possible future products for Apple. There's one report, obviously not confirmed, suggesting that Apple had four years of green lit products on the table when Jobs passed in 2011. So we are not even halfway through that cycle, but it stretches credibility to think that Apple isn't also working on products that extend farther into the future.
At the same time, media and financial pundits are complaining that Apple should have introduced some sort of trendsetting product by now, and every single day without such a product, or at least a media event invitation, is seriously hurting the company. As usual, they forget the six-year lapse between the introduction of the iPod and the iPhone, or the three-year interval between the iPhone and the iPad. I guess we all have to assume that the pace of creativity has thus accelerated, and Apple should have had something completely new by the end of 2011. They are late to the party then, or so some say.
Regardless of what products Steve Jobs approved, here is a reality check: Development or production bottlenecks may mean that the final product will change substantially from the original concept. Quite possibly, Apple's designers and engineers will make ongoing changes. As you no doubt recall, Jobs supposedly cautioned his team that they should never ask what he would do. That was the mistake made by Disney Company after their founder's death. So even if Jobs gave the OK for a specific product, that doesn't mean Apple must release it precisely as intended. The state of the industry and ongoing development may take the concept and move it into a totally different direction. The product envisioned in 2011 may be irrelevant in 2013 or 2014.
At the same time, isn't it curious that the same standards aren't being applied to the power company of this year, Samsung? What markets has Samsung revolutionized? Smartphones? No way. Sure, the Galaxy S3 may have exceeded the iPhone in sales for a quarter, but how is it really innovative? It works well enough with mostly generic hardware, as will the forthcoming Galaxy G4. Samsung has some apps that might have some buzz to them, if they work properly, but aren't they simply following the mold set by the iPhone? The same is true for Samsung's tablets.
When it comes to TVs, again Samsung makes some of the best flat panels on the market, both LCD and plasma. Reviewers praise them, but it's not that they are all that different from the competition. You could buy LG, Panasonic and VIZIO instead and get a great value for your money. What does Samsung really bring to the table in terms of real innovation and not some flashy but useless bullet point feature? And, no, I don't regard the Samsung 85-inch UHD S9, with a street price of nearly $40,000, as a game changer. It's a toy for the rich, to be sure, and maybe the 4K or Ultra HD format may gain some traction some day.
But if Apple dared to release a $40,000 "smart" TV, they'd be rightly criticized by the media for offering an overpriced gadget that had little practical value for regular people. For Apple, anything that doesn't sell 10 million units a year is relegated to a hobby or an area of "interest." It may even be possible that Apple has an Ultra HD TV under development, but you'll never see it unless the format makes sense with lots of content supporting the higher resolution, and prices become competitive with existing TVs. And, yes, I've heard the rumor that Apple might actually release such a beast, but I don't believe it. At least not now.
At the same time, it may well be possible that, in saying he'd solved the problem of delivering the best TV interface ever, Jobs has already approved such a design for Apple to follow through on. But whether that statement represented a souped up Apple TV box, or a full-fledged TV, or both, won't be known until Apple shows their hand.
Now I suppose the statement about Jobs approving future iPhones was meant to change the discussion that Apple's creative days have come and gone. But it has the danger of simply reinforcing that impression going forward, for it spreads the belief that Apple is still living in the past.

Irish jockey, Barry Geraghty, rode his first winner at Down Royal back in January 1997. And his career since then has been nothing short of remarkable. He has been crowned Champion Jockey on two occasions in Ireland, in 1999-2000 and 2003-2004.
He was leading rider at the 2003 Cheltenham Festival and led Moscow Flyer in the Queen Mother Champion Chase. With five winners that week, he then went on to win his fourth Champion Chase at the 2012 Cheltenham festival on Finians Rainbow.
He continued the season in incredible form taking the most coveted prize of them all – the Aintree Grand National. On the Jimmy Mangan-trained Monty's Pass he romped home for the win. In recognition of his amazing year, Geraghty was voted as 'Sports Personality Of The Year' later that season for his wonderful victories. Plus, it was the first time that this prize had been won by anyone in the racing industry.
On the 2 November 2009 he rode his 1000th winner under National Hunt Rules in UK and Ireland. It was on the Nicky Henderson trained Duc De Regniere won at Kempton.
In 2012, he then had another remarkable Cheltenham Festival, where he won another five times for trainer Nicky Henderson. He was on Sprinter Sacre in the Arkle, Simonsig in the Novices' Hurdle, Bobs Worth in the RSA Chase, Finians Rainbow in the Queen Mother Champion Chase and Riverside Theatre in the Ryanair Chase.
He had hoped to continue the duo's winning ways on in the 2012 Grand National.
But despite giving him a fantastic ride around the course, he couldn't keep up with the leaders. But still finished a very respectable 9th place. And given that Shakalakaboomboom was only 8 years old, he was sure to be back again.
Nicky Henderson had only one runner in 2013 in Roberto Goldback but was unseated at the last fence and was out of the race.
For the 2014 Crabbies Grand National, Barry Geraghty was on board Triolo D'Alene but was pulled-up at Bechers Brook on the second circuit. He didn't make an appearance in 2015 due to injury.
Back again in 2016, Geraghty was was now the retained rider for super-owner JP McManus. He partnered with Shutthefrontdoor to finish in 9th place. In 2017 he was on More Of That but pulled-up.
2018 saw him come the closest to another Grand National win. On Anibale Fly he had a terrific race to finish in 4th place.
For the 2019 Grand National, he was booked to ride Anibale Fly. However, on Day 2 of the festival, Geraghty fell and broke his leg ruling him out of the race. Mark Walsh then moved from Regal Encore to take his place. Odds moved out from around 12/1 to 16/1.

Customers of Manila Electric Company (Meralco) will have a slight bump in electricity bills this month due to an increase in generation charges last month.
Meralco announced on Wednesday that it adjusted power rates upward by 11.35 centavos per kilowatt hour. This increased electricity rate for this month to P10.0901 per kWh from P9.9766 per kWh in October.
This adjustment would translate to P23-increase in the total electricity bill for a typical household that consumes 200 kWh a month.
The higher generation charge this October is mainly due to an increase in Wholesale Electricity Spot Market (WESM) charges.
?WESM charges went up due to higher power demand in Luzon resulting from warmer temperature in October,? Meralco explained.
Meralco said WESM charges went up by P1.3545 per kWh. This pushed its generation charge to rise to P5.2725 per kWh in November from P5.1908 per kWh in October, increasing by P0.0817 per kWh.
?The share of WESM purchases to Meralco?s total requirement this month was 16.6 percent,? the company said.
?Transmission charges of residential customers increased by P0.0021 per kWh due to an increase in NGCP?s (National Grid Corporation of the Philippines) ancillary service charges. Meanwhile, taxes and other charges went up byP0.0297 per kWh this month,? it added.
Meralco noted it has lowered electricity rates by 25 centavos per kWh in the last two months.
Electricity rates posted a net decrease of 46 centavos per kWh since April this year. (PNA)

Hi there
Loving this place!
I mix minimal techno and love using traktor and my kontrol x1. I feel like I really only am loading up tracks and pressing sync though.
I'd love to progress and have been playing with FX which is cool, but sounds over the top to me.
I'd love to learn a couple of simple tricks that wouldn't sound overused or just a few things to start to make it more interesting.
I love the look of the 2 midi fighter setup with juggling and looping too, wondered if i should grab those or can do enough with the X1 for now.
I'd really appreciate some ideas.
