When I reflect on the last two decades that I have been a believer, I am amazed at the depth of God's love for me. I don't deserve it and yet He gave it to me. That is the definition of grace actually. According to the New Oxford American Dictionary grace is defined as, "the free and unmerited favor of God, as manifested in the salvation of sinners and the bestowal of blessings."
Jesus came to Earth for the specific purpose of paying our debt. The debt Adam and Eve's sin required payment for by a blood sacrifice. It's not pretty, it certainly isn't something I want to dwell on. But that's just it. Jesus said, "I'll do it. I — who have never sinned– will pay the penalty with my own blood, so that all of humanity will have the opportunity to be cleansed and freed from the sins, the addictions, the hurt, the anger, the pain, all of it. I will give my life."
John 10:10 says, " I have come that they may have life, life to the full" or "abundantly" depending on the translation. Jesus is so in love with us, we matter so much to Him. He doesn't want us to have a life that is mediocre, a life that we "just get through." He came that we may chose to have a wild life, a life unlike anything we could ask or imagine. We can have a life full of joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. A life that encourages others to seek that same Joy-giver, Peace maker, Jail-breaker—Jesus.
That the God of the Universe, who spoke everything into being, but created man with His very hands, who loves us so much that His son died in our place– that He desires a relationship with me, with you, with everyone in the world– blows my mind. It's scandalous.
This Grace that Jesus offers us through a relationship with Him when you really, truly, experience it, there are no words. Twenty-four years after I received it I still find myself overwhelmed to tears. How could this God love me so much?? Doesn't He know all the mistakes I've made? The things I've done? The sins I've committed? The anger? The hate? The hurt I've caused? Doesn't He know???
Scripture says, yes. "But God demonstrated His own love for us in this: While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8). It says it all right there in Romans. God loved us first. He didn't wait for us to love Him, or to become "perfect." No, it says while we were messy, broken, ugly, nasty, shattered people He saw us as we could be, as we would be through his Son, and He loved us.
That is truly scandalous.
This Is Amazing Grace
Who breaks the power of sin and darkness
Whose love is mighty and so much stronger
The King of Glory, the King above all kings
Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder
Who leaves us breathless in awe and wonder
The King of Glory, the King above all kings
This is amazing grace
This is unfailing love
That You would take my place
That You would bear my cross
You lay down Your life
That I would be set free
Jesus, I sing for
All that You've done for me
Who brings our chaos back into order
Who makes the orphan a son and daughter
The King of Glory, the King above all kings
Who rules the nations with truth and justice
Shines like the sun in all of its brilliance
The King of Glory, the King above all kings
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love, amazing grace

I just finished watching the documentary Supersize Me. I came across it in Blockbuster the other day and figured I needed to watch it as part of my food research. It is a very interesting film and I quite enjoyed it, although the message is disturbing. For anyone trying to acquire a quick snapshot of food issues in North America, the film makes a nice complement to the books Fast Food Nation and The Ominvor's Dilemma. Throw in a viewing of The Corporation and you may never eat out again.
In Supersize Me, director and self-selected guinea pig Morgan Spurlock decides to eat exclusively McDonald's food for 30 consecutive days. Before launching this experiment, he enlists the help of three doctors and a nutritionist. They take his weight, body mass index, blood work, cardiovascular capability and so on to get a complete profile. These tests are then repeated at one-week intervals while he is on his McDiet. The results are predictable but nevertheless shocking. By the end of the month, he had gained 25lbs, developed the liver of an alcoholic, and suffered from depression and lethargy among a myriad of other health problems. It then took twice the length of time of the diet to get his bloodwork to return to normal, and 14 times its length to lose the weight he put on.
Because the film's star eats McDonalds three times a day, some may still think that it's not a big deal to eat there from time to time. I have never been much of a McDonald's fan and have eaten there only once in the past decade, perhaps longer (a chocolate shake and small fries). But before starting my locavore diet I was eating at Tim Hortons fairly regularly. By that I mean several times a week I would grab a muffin and very occasionally a sandwich. I didn't think much of it, figuring it was a small enough percentage of my food intake to not really have an impact.
Nevertheless, since eating only local – and therefore totally unprocessed – food, I have lost close to 10lbs. In fact this summer my mother started to be concerned I was too thin. I put a couple of pounds back on over the winter with all the carbs and animal products I have been consuming, but I am still sitting at the weight I was when I was 15, which I certainly never expected to see again. In other words, even though I considered myself someone who 'rarely' ate processed or fast food, I was unconsciously consuming enough of it to have a significant impact on my body. Eating merely a few Tim Hortons muffins and the occasional pre-made sandwhich a week meant I was carrying 8-10 extra pounds!
On my new 'diet,' I eat whatever I want, whenever I want and as much as I want, as long as it is local. (This of course rules out all processed foods.) I give my body what it craves, which is very clear now that I am off my sugar addiction and varies considerably with the season. In the summer I subsisted nearly exclusively on fruits and vegetables, not wanting anything else.
In the winter, however, my I have turned into quite the carnivore. My cold weather diet has included – in addition to a variety of vegetables – at least 4 liters of whole milk, a pound of butter, 2-3 liters of full fat yogurt, 6-12 eggs, half a pound of cheese, small amounts of meat, 2 loaves of bread, a lot of maple syrup and honey, 2 (fair trade organic) large bars of dark chocolate and a bottle of red wine per week.
Despite eating what many would think to be a very high fat diet, my cholesterol (and all other blood-work in fact) is in great shape, and my weight is down. This suggests that it is the processing of food that causes problems, not the food itself. Fresh, whole organic foods are easy for our bodies to break down and use efficiently as fuel. For an interesting discussion on this topic, and of our obsession with nutrients over whole foods, check out Unhappy Meals by Michael Pollan, or pick up a copy of his new book In Defense of Food (which I have not yet read but have been told is yet another good read by this author). Certainly my experience to date supports his arguments and observations.

Rotational Motion Modelling for Numerical Analysis of Electric Machines
Keywords: Rotational motion modelling, Finite element method, Torque calculation, Electric machine
AbstractThe paper presents a brief review of the movement modelling methods of electric machines and the two most common used torque calculation techniques. After the classification of single-layer moving band methods, a low computation cost and an easily realisable new variant of this movement modelling technique is proposed. To study the accuracy of proposed moving band technique equipped with Arkkio's method and Maxwell's stress tensor method for torque calculation an international benchmark problem used. Further, to check the applicability, the proposed method has been used to analyse a three-phase switched reluctance motor. The results of proposed method have been compared to analytical and numerical results.

It wouldn't be New Year's in Southern California without Pasadena's Rose Parade and Rose Bowl Game. Like most of the country, I grew up watching the game and parade from far away on TV. The colorful flowers and sunny blue skies were like rubbing salt into the wound for Easterners dealing with gray skies, snow, ice and wind.
That was actually pretty much the intent of the Pasadena Valley Hunt Club, when they organized the first parade, featuring horse-drawn carts covered with flowers, in 1890. New California transplants from the East thought it would be nice to hold a parade in the mild weather that featured the flowers that bloomed year-round. TV wouldn't be around yet for a few more decades, but newspapers on the East Coast began to hear about it and cover it. Today, most of the floats are built by professional float-building companies, with work commencing right after the year's theme is chosen in January. It's incredible what can be created with flowers, live plants and seeds, and the designs seem to get better and better each year.
I've now seen the parade floats three ways: a few days before, as thousands of volunteers work in the cold to complete the decoration by New Year's Eve; on New Year's Day, sitting in the stands watching the completed floats go by; and, like today, after the parade, when you can see them up close and personal. I think of all the ways, I like the latter best. This year I got the feel for each float watching the parade reruns on TV, so it was neat to be able to see them afterwards, close up and completed.
I am biased toward the city of Huntington Beach, and was thrilled that it won the Mayor's Award for best city entry. It deserved it – not only did it capture the spirit of the city, but it did it in a very creative way, featuring a surfing family, pelicans and dolphins. Up close, it was really impressive to see how the designers used plants to create the water and sea creatures that added to the effect.
My other favorites were also city entries. The city of Sierra Madre put together an amazing tribute to Bollywood, and the designs of the ornate tapestry were outstanding. That example featured oranges and kumquats. They also featured some beautiful trees and a jumbo elephant.
I also really liked the entry from the city of Los Angeles. Given that the theme was "Hats Off to Entertainment", it was fitting that this city showcased its contributions to the entertainment and the arts. The float fittingly featured many of the landmarks I've visited and covered on the blog this year: City Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, Griffith Park Observatory, and the Hollywood Sign. The design of the float featured these in a novel and colorful way.
In past years, I've always made arrangements in advance to secure parade route seating. I figured it was way better than camping out in the cold the night before (though in my younger days….) But several folks at work said they parked even after 8AM a few blocks away from the end of the parade route, walked up to Colorado Boulevard and had a great view. So, maybe next year it's time to watch the parade in person again.

If you are not familiar with candlestick charts, you may be wondering why many people use them. Today, I would like to take you through the different kinds of charts that can be used when trading forex, and list some of the pros and cons of each.
Line Charts
Popular trading platforms usually have three different options for viewing your chart, these being the line chart, bar chart, and candlestick chart. The first of these, a line chart looks like this (see Figure 1):
As you can see, it is called a line chart because it is made up of one continuous line. This line is formed by connecting the dots from the close of each day or session – whether it is a 1-hour session, or a daily session. It is a very simple and effective way of looking at price, and it tells us the direction of the overall trend, which is adequate for longer-term investors.
Bar Charts
Bar charts (Figure 2) tell us a little more about what is going on with price between the open and close of a session (rather than just giving us information about the close like in line charts). We can see at what price the session opened, what was the lowest price of the session, what was the highest price of the session, and what was the close of the session. This gives us valuable information about the market that we cannot get from line charts. For example, note the first high point on the chart with a long pin bar, tipping us off to the fact that the trend might be reversing. We do not see this on a line chart.
Candlestick Charts
Candlestick charts give us exactly the same information as bar charts, but they do it in a much more visually appealing way. Bar charts are very hard to look at, but the information on candlestick charts just jumps out at you! This is the main reason why I look at candlestick charts. If you don't believe me, just take a look at the difference for yourself (see Figure 3):

Celebrating Tarzan's 101st anniversary by walking through Scott Tracy Griffin's Tarzan: The Centennial Celebration.
Edgar Rice Burroughs was fast approaching the age of 60 when he started writing the story that would become known as Tarzan's Quest. In a supplemental chapter called "Tarzan Immortal," Griffin notices that immortality and a fear of old age were becoming recurring themes in the novels Burroughs wrote in his 50s. From The Master Mind of Mars to Lost on Venus, characters looked for ways to beat aging and death, with one heroine thinking, "How ghastly! Oh, I should rather die than be like that. Old age! Oh, how terrible!"
While Burroughs wrote Tarzan's Quest, he divorced his wife (they'd been married for 34 years and had been childhood sweethearts before that) and announced his engagement to a 30-year-old woman a couple of weeks later. He was late to his mid-life crisis, but he made the most of it.
That's all important, because the themes of youth and immortality are major ones in Tarzan's Quest. Originally titled "Tarzan and Jane," the book is actually two stories that merge at the end. Tarzan and the Waziri tribe are investigating a series of disappearances of young women, while Jane is traveling with some friends in a plane that crashes. Jane's friends are looking into rumors of an eternal youth forumla that's supposed to be held by a lost tribe deep in the jungle, but they aren't all on the same page about it. Though Jane proves herself a capable guide through the jungle, the party fights among itself and there's eventually a murder.
When the story was serialized by Blue Book starting in 1935, it was called "Tarzan and the Immortal Men," but Burroughs' secretary suggested Tarzan's Quest for the hardback collection and he took her advice.
It's never been directly adapted for film, but two movies have borrowed elements from it. Tarzan's Magic Fountain features outsiders who come to Africa looking for a youth-elixer, while Tarzan and the Lost Safari features a diverse group of travelers who crash in the jungle and have to be led out (though by Tarzan, of course; not Jane).
Tarzan's Quest wouldn't be the last time that the ape man was exposed to an eternal youth formula. Just to be sure, Burroughs gave Tarzan a second dose a few books later in Tarzan and the Foreign Legion.

McDonald's has a tasty new cheese side on its menu – but you'll have to be quick if you want to try it
The Red Leicester Melts, which are crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle, will be available for a limited time only
MCDONALD'S has introduced a yummy new cheese side to its menu - but you'd better be quick if you want to try it.
The delicious Red Leicester Melts, which feature a crunchy coating and a core of oozing melted cheese, are served with a tangy tomato dip.
Each portion contains five bite-size melts and costs £1.59.
And while they're not the healthiest item on the menu - each portion contains 235 calories and 15g of fat - they're certainly a tasty treat.
But you'd better get your skates on if you want to try them, as they'll only be available until August 15 this year.
The new addition has made its way onto the menu at the same time as the Big Tasty, Galaxy McFlurry and Galaxy Caramel McFlurry's return.
While the fast food chain is no stranger to introducing cheesy side dishes, this is believed to be the first time that Red Leicester has been given its moment in the McDonald's spotlight.
A McDonald's representative told the Leicester Mercury: "The Red Leicester Melts are served with a rich tomato dip and are now new to our menu.
'I'm sexually attracted to her'Man, 19, admits FALLING IN LOVE with long-lost mum after tracking her down on Facebook
MIND OVER MATTERWhat are the symptoms of anxiety, how can it be treated and who else suffers? From Zayn Malik to Will Young
TAKE A GOOD GANDEROnly one in eight people can spot the fox hiding among the geese in this tricky optical illusion
"These items have been temporarily introduced to our menu alongside our Big Flavour Wrap campaign, which shines a light on the range of wraps which are permanently available on our menu."
Yesterday we told how McDonald's cancelled an unofficial "chicken nuggets" rave on its Dalston branch's roof terrace after 3,000 people vow to turn-up.
In April we reported how a McDonald's employee revealed the secrets of working in the fast food chain's kitchen and how one server got sacked in an hour.

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – A school in Mounds View had to be closed last week after raccoons were found in the ceiling.
Officials with Mounds View Public Schools said they learned of the possibility of raccoons at Bridges School last Friday. Bridges School offers programs for students with an enhanced need for behavioral and social skills.
[graphiq id="1GdDjSPPRpH" title="Mounds View, MN Profile" width="600″ height="603″ url="https://sw.graphiq.com/w/1GdDjSPPRpH" frozen="true"]
The school was closed after raccoons were found in the attic. Officials say the district is working with two pest control companies, and both assured them the school was safe after several days. Students returned to Bridge School on Thursday.
Officials say on Friday, a raccoon was observed outside the building while students were on the playground.
None of the raccoon sightings was in student spaces. They were all in the attic. Students were moved to other schools and will remain at those schools until the issue is resolved.
There are 30 students in the Bridges School program, which is for students with special needs in Kindergarten through seventh grade.

ASHDOD, Israel
An ancient port of the Philistines, it lies south of Tel Aviv, about an hour's drive from Jerusalem. It is the main exporting port for the Dead Sea salts.
*EXCURSION: Full day Jerusalem included tour The drive from Ashdod up to Jerusalem takes 70-90 minutes. We journey eastwards across the fertile, heavily-farmed coastal plain passing kibbutz and moshav settlements; then across the Plain of Ayyalon where Joshua is said to have stopped the sun setting for a day and a night. We climb the Sha'ar Hagai, the narrow pass into the Judaean Mountains, the infamous road that saw the death of many young Jewish fighters in convoys trying to relieve besieged Jerusalem in the War of Independence. This capital city stands some 760 metres above sea level. We visit the Old City - a walk tour usually from the Jaffa Gate to the Dung Gate to include the following:- the Church of the Holy Sepulchre to see the Hill of Calvary, the place of anointing of the body and the Tomb; part of the Via Dolorosa; the recently restored Roman "Cardo" (market street) in the Jewish Quarter; the Western Wall - the retaining wall of Temple Mount. Visit the Garden Tomb situated in East Jerusalem.. Drive up onto the Mount of Olives for the magnificent panoramic view across the Old City of Jerusalem to the west and down into the Wilderness of Judaea to the east. Visit the Garden of Gethsemane and the Basilica Drive out to "New Jerusalem" to see the Knesset and the Menorah, Ministry buildings, Hebrew University and the Israel Museum. Proceed to Yad Vashem, Memorial to the Holocaust. This is a full day tour so we take a packed lunch from the ship. Comfort stops' are included which may be taken at a souvenir shop/bazaar where usually there are clean toilets.
Optional Shore Excursion: Full day - Masada and the Dead Sea
From Ashdod we journey across the Negev Desert to Masada, to the shores of the Dead Sea before returning via Jerusalem to Ashdod. An early start from the ship for this very different tour. Drive south-eastwards across the fertile coastal belt and on into the Negev Desert which covers nearly half of Israel. Modern irrigation methods have extended the agricultural land across the edges of a natural desert. Be'er Sheva, an ancient city dating from Abraham who named this place 'The Well of the Oath' is passed as we turn east into mountainous desert scenery and arrive at Arad. Masada lies beyond, overlooking the Dead Sea. This famous, boat-shaped craggy mountain towers 430 metres above the 'poisoned' sea. We approach from the West and climb the Roman Ramp - a manmade feature created by soldiers and slaves to move a mountain and rest it against Masada and capture all living there. Once on top we immediately appreciate the magnificence of Herod the Great's achievements. Here he constructed two major palace complexes, double walls with houses between, storerooms, bathhouse, swimming pool and cavernous cisterns within the very rock. The Roman achievement of building the ramp was no less impressive, though costly in time and lives & the target fruitless on completion, for the Romans found no one alive on top.
We walk down the Snake Path, or ride the cable car, to our waiting coaches. On the shores of the Dead Sea, the lowest place on Earth's surface, a 'floatation' is possible in the highly salty water. Our return to Ashdod takes us past Ein Fashka, Qumran and round the edge of Jerusalem. A truly fantastic day.
Optional Excursion: Full day to Lower Galilee
From Ashdod drive northwards along the coastal highway crossing the Mount Carmel range near Megiddo into the fertile Jezreel Valley. We concentrate our time in Lower Galilee close to the shores of the Sea of Galilee. At the southern end, from where the River Jordan flows out, stands the Deganyah Kibbutz, the oldest such establishment in Israel. Here is a Baptismal place. Along the eastern shore lie other kibbutz settlements where the people grow bananas, pineapples, dates and citrus fruits, farm ostriches and operate water-parks and other facilities for holidaymakers.
We are at the foot of the Golan Heights. At the northern end of the Sea is the point where the River Jordan flows in. Near here stands Capernaum, home of Simon Peter the fisherman. The archaeologists are still at work, and they have already uncovered what they believe to have been Simon's home, visited by Christ; an ancient boat perhaps dating back to Biblical times; and the remains of a second century synagogue. Above the village stands the Mount of the Beatitudes, a most beautiful and peaceful spot where there is an Italian octagonal chapel. Further along the seashore lies Tabgha, the site of the Feeding of the Five Thousand, and beyond, Migdal, home of Mary Magdalene. Tiberias, a Roman town, is today a centre of tourism with large international hotels, and the hot springs of mineral water famous in the times of the Caesars.

If I knew how to use GTK Radiant map editor and had all the textures, I would make a jungle-like map on any free time I have.
I would then be able to measure the possibilites of making this jungle map.

which arent quite good. I dont even need to map it to know it wont look good. Again, the Quake3 engine and all the current idSoftware engines except the 3rd version of Doom3E with megatexture are designed for indoors and urban maps only. Thats why indoor TCE maps look awesome even when they are poorly made thirdparty maps. But all the outdoor non-urban maps are rather bad and have very poor framerates.

Have you tried dem_urwald it comes up as Junglecamp by wiesel when you go to it ingame. The map is small and dark but you get the jungle feel.

thats where people must stay still or get killed when I get my hands on a sniper rifle. But I never really liked that map as it really does support spawn camping and spawnkilling being a small and open map that it is.

IMO the leaves look really sharp to me, matter of fact, it looks perfect,
especially if it whas made for an outdated engine,
trust me im a neat freak / perfectionist,
and if i say it looks perfect, than i really mean it looks perfect...
it looks like it is a BOB ROSS's paint drawings, very artfull looking tree's and leaves.

Well, if thats what you think, theres nothing we can do about it. Personally I dont like the trees in the ET engine or any Quake based games. They actually drag down the fps alot while there low detail and lack of proper shader make them hard to see through. Its like looknig at a wall instead of leaves. In real life, if you hide in a bush, you can still see whats going on outside, but in the game hiding in a bush is like cover your eyes with masking tape and the olny place you can see through is the tiny gaps.

that problem is very easy to fix,
like what many games did,
make the plants transparent evrytime you infront of them,
maybe not extremely realistic thing to do,
but its pure for the gameplay, gameplay is as importent as realism.
i think the devs dont have to worry about the detailed looking tree's and leaves, TT has some talented mappers, or they could always hire someone whos good at making realistic nature map's,
the main thing that the devs have to focus when they wanna make a jungle map, is studying the jungle, read books about the jungle,
-what kind of plants exist in the jungle,
-what kind of tree's grow in the jungle,
-what kind of noises will you hear when you in the middle of the jungle,
-in what kind of places does moss grows
-how does a small little rock grow,
-ect. ect.
and the second thing the devs have to focus is:
-the textures, like realistic looking grass and stuff.
-tiny little animations, like tree's moving left and right,
-just to give you the illusion that theres some wind on the map.
-dynamic things, like plants moving a little bit evry time you move pass them.
-the flexibility of the twigs and leaves, grass,
make it look less "stiff"
but what i really advice is, to hire someone that specialise himself in modeling nature, like small little animals, tree's leaves, realistic looking water ect. ect.
besides the modeling, he has to be good with animations and coding too,
it makes things more easier,
|XenoKiLLer [ Wed Mar 15, 2006 9:45 pm ]

the thing is they make this game out of their free time. Meaning, got got jobs to do. As you should know they have a lack of active members and probably just one coder. So, none of them have time to read about the jungle just to make a map. They have thier won lives to get done themselves. The only way for this to work out is if some third party mapping team decideds to create it, and if TT likes it, they might invite you to their tema as mappers then making your map official.
|Dragonathan [ Wed Mar 15, 2006 9:52 pm ]
|Post subject:
the thing is, there arent many skilled 3rd party mappers,
you can recruit 40 3rd party mappers,
and theres a big chance the map still look like shit,
its better to have 2 or 3 talented skilled mapper, than to have 40 unskilled mappers.
and i really dont need to explain why.
|XenoKiLLer [ Wed Mar 15, 2006 10:39 pm ]
|Post subject:
did I say the third party mapping team had to be 40 unskilled people? I didnt even mention a mnumber or what kind of person. I just said that the only way this will ever be done is when someone or some group makes a really good map and attracts TT's attention.

Well, ... right...
What would a terrorist team be terrorizing in a jungle anyway?
It would still be better to put it in a beach resort with some important people, e.g. the president. The resort can then be an enclosed space with the background looks of an island jungle. Ofcourse, you cant go to the jungle but it will still feel like it. This map can be a VIP and hostage rescue mission. It should have civvies that you mus'nt harm and a VIP you must extract alive. The terrorist would then have to stop you from doing any of that. And they also need the hostage alive so they cant harm them either or use them to camp.

yep. hey, wait, there is a beach resort.
problem solved
if you tell your BF/GF/hubby/wife you're cheating, that's honest. if they're awake, that's stupid.
if you find a wallet with $1000 in it, and you return the wallet, that's honest. if you return the $1000, that's stupid.
if you admit to a cop you've been smoking pot, that's honest. if you OFFER him some.

Browse these laminate floor cleaners with great ratings from Thumbtack customers in Elizabeth.
Mike was great. He's personable and committed to making his customers happy. He's great with our dog, moves furniture and did a fabulous job with our carpets. I'll have him return to clean our kitchen tile floor and definitely to clean our carpets again.
Very positive experience. Beverly, who is the owner, was detailed and patient with all my questions (first time customer). I had a detailed hardwood floor cleaning as well as a bathroom deep clean. Ami, who provided the service, came in for a brief consultation to provide a quote since my request was specific. I quickly booked the job for the following week. The floors look brand new and the bathroom spotless. You can tell there was a lot of thoughtful work put into the job. We were very impressed. Note that you will need to provide mops/vacuum/swiffer etc.. but they provide the cleaning products. Thank you Ami and Beverly!! Will definitely book again!
Our cleaners from Beatriz's Cleaners were on time. They were friendly and professional. They listened to what I wanted and did a great job. They also brought their own tools and products, which surprised me. I will be using them on a regular basis!
Silvia was great, exceeded my expectations and made what was once a grimey move-in for our new apartment into a much better living situation. She cleaned the grout and tiles for our bathroom and it almost felt like new. She also did a great job with the floors and went above and beyond putting things away and helping setup our new place.
Luane was about 45 minutes late, which was why I deducted a star. Otherwise this company would have been 5 stars. They do excellent work, and I'm very pleased with the quality of their cleaning. They cleaned our range hood and under the countertop appliances without even being asked. Most cleaners I've worked with go around the appliances. The team is very nice and accommodating and I will most likely hire them again on a recurring basis.
At your service was hired to refinish a bedroom floor. Robert gave me a quote online and confirmed over the phone. Work began the following day and the job was finished as scheduled and at the price quoted over the phone. The floor looks great.
Denzell came on time cleaned a very, very dirty kitchen floor taking his time to see he got all the dirt he then waxed it 3 times and it looks great also gave me some tips on my laminate floors he was very professional and would recommend Floor Vision to my friends. Thank you Floor Vision for a great job.
Phil has the right equipment, the knowledge, and the brawn to do the job the right way. I tried the "do it yourself" carpet cleaners which had little effect compared to the machinery and solvents Phil has. Money well spent for me with a surprisingly good outcome.
My kitchen was in need of some new features. Had new tiled floors, back splash and cabinetry done. I was impressed with how neat they were. Good Carpenters
My husband & I were so happy how our ceramic kitchen floor came out. We had the floor cleaned along with regrouting. Dominick was very prompt & professional. He immediately had his employees put booties on over their shoes & had them lay a cloth tarp down in the living room. Once they were finished my floor looked brand new again. I am so happy how it turned out. I asked Dominick if there was anything that could be done to my granite counter around the sink. It had a small chip & Dominick took care of it for me at no charge! I would definitely use The King Of Kleen in the future. I'll also recommend them to family & friends.
Alejandra has been cleaning my house for about two years. I am very happy with her service. She works hard and she is a very responsable lady. Highly recommended.
HR Group LLC did an amazing job on our project to laminate a custom product display in Formica. I was in a bind since the original carpenter I was working with bailed at the end of the project. HR Group came in dissembled the entire display, laminated it in Formica and re-assembled it perfectly. They were extremely professional, great customer service and provide us with very high quality work. I would highly recommend HR Group LLC.
We hired Jay Quin Contracting Inc. for a complete bathroom renovation. Jay's bid for this project was midrange, however, after checking various websites for customer satisfaction, we decided to use his company. The project included all new waste lines, all new supply lines, mold resistant wall boards, and new sub floors. He designed a custom walk in shower with both a rain forest shower head and hand held detachable shower wand. He also installed bead board wainscoting over walls with a layer of skim coat. The walk in shower with its frameless glass walls, creates a real open feeling in this odd shaped small room. The floor and wall tiles are perfectly set, and each seam was carefully sealed. His workers were polite, professional and very neat, ensuring that the worksite and their path were swept daily. Jay worked well with us and brought our vision of our perfect bathroom to fruition.
I recently conducted a Studio event in the City of New York which occupied and entertained 720 guest. When I thought of the Studio set-up and Cleaning (before and after), one of my managers referred me to PVA ZONE SOLUTIONS INC. (Cleaning Services). Pascal and his team fulfilled my requirements and surpassed my expectations. They ensured the Studio space (Restrooms, kitchens, Floors, fountains) were tidy, well cleaned and arranged properly. They provided an outstanding professionalism and expertise. I will hire them again and recommend to others.
Very friendly service and got all the stains out of my carpet. Very happy!
Aisha was on time and unfazed by our stubborn laminate floors in our new hair salon. There was drywall distribution embedded in the flooring, she was able to identify the issue, retrieve the proper supplies, and then proceeded to do a thorough job despite the time of day. Excellent, highly recommended
The cleaning professional was 10 minutes early which I loved. I've used other cleaning companies before, but Splendidly was the first to use something other then a swiffer mop, or sponge mop.

How much time do you have left?
Life expectancy average has been up, but individually, it's an open question.
The question.
And this question should stand Maslow scale on its head i.e. if you knew you were going to die tonight,
would you be moving methodically up the Need pyramid? Or just go ahead to think that thought, say that word
and do that deed? Fearlessly.
Every week, I drove by Rapids, a water park, but haven't once entered it.
The last time I tried jumping from the Devil's tower (vertical drop) I fainted for a few seconds.
Maybe this weekend, I will try again.
What's your "water park"?
The chairman of Giant -Taiwanese bike Lord– has tried to do just that. He is going to repeat the national track on his 80;'s birthday. So did George Bush, the father, when he celebrated his birthday by jumping out of a plane, as he did in his youth.
A vet friend of mine, tall and friendly, used to karate-kick really high ( this was junior high when we used each other as human punch bags).
He went to war and came back injured.
We spent a lot of time catching up over the last decade after we had met again on the West coast.
Gone were the kicking. Just the sense of irony and humor left between us.
Imagined if he had died and never come back.
We wouldn't have had those extra hours over coffee, computer and chicken rice (his 3 C's).
Yesterday Gary Coleman, the star of Different Strokes and lately, Pay Day Advance spoke person died at the age of 42.
A doctor I know of the same name same age, died a few months back. He was adamant about checking other people's cholesterol level. His cause of death: heart attack.
The hard part is to know when your time is up. The easy part is to choose how to live each day as if it were your last.
And since it's my last blog, metaphorically, I hope to leave with you that sense of appreciation for life, as is.
We couldn't negotiate our arrival, and our departure. So I guess, life as presented to us, is a non-negotiable package.
I am glad for the internet (1 and 0), music (7 notes) and the alphabet (hope and history rhyme).
And I appreciate those role models who exploit those infinite combination and permutation to show us what life was all about.. Their en-code have become my source code.
During those Kung-fu fever years (90% of our group took up Kung-fu of one form or another) I thought I could skip the law of gravity. I ended up with a broken arm.
And this weekend, perhaps, I will try to jump again. But this time, it will be safe. It's a water park, for God's sakes. And recession admission is buy one and get one free.
Someone has to watch and make sure I don't faint again. A little attention for the living is much better than a ton for the dead.
Think of me next Memorial Day anyway regardless the outcome.
P.S. As of this edit, I have just gone back from my morning job. Passed by the noodle house. They were putting up funeral wreath. It was the noodle man's last day. Perhaps I will think of him next Memorial Day. And the Syrian victims of Sarin.

Daijiworld Media Network - Bantwal (SP)
Bantwal, Sep 14: Three of the accused in the murder case pertaining to Karopady gram panchayat vice president, Abdul Jaleel, have approached the high court. They have questioned the justifiability of invoking provisions of The Karnataka Control of Organized Crimes Act (KCOCA) against them.
The accused, identified as P Dinakar Shetty, Vinod Kumar Shetty and Pradeep Shetty, had filed the petition which came before the single judge bench of Justice Aravind Kumar on Wednesday September 13. The bench, which heard the case for sometime, questioned as to whether any international call had been received before Jaleel's murder. Seeking reply to this query, it adjourned hearing in the case to September 21.
Abdul Jaleel Karopady
Rachappa, who represented the government, argued that this happens to be a serious criminal case of involving underground criminal, Vicky alias Cicky Shetty. He said that in such cases, collection of evidence poses a huge challenge for the police. Therefore, he argued that the government was in order in invoking the said act, and requested the bench not to grant stay for the investigation.
When Jaleel fought for the post of vice president in Karopady gram panchayat, P Dinesh Shetty, said to be a relative of Vicky Shetty, had also contested. Dinesh Shetty was defeated in the election. Shetty and others are into finance business in the village. When Shetty applied for permission to extract sand, Jeleel had turned it down. Because of enmity arising out of these things, it was claimed, that Jaleel was murdered on April 20 when he was alone in the gram panchayat office, with lethal weapons.
Police personnel, who claim that Vicky Shetty is involved with this incident, have named 17 persons in the first information report. In view of the seriousness of the crime, the provisions of KCOCA were invoked against the accused.
In sand business... These things are common
If these guys committed the crime they should get the worst order possible and locked away for good.

Romans 6 - (NIV)
Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ
1 What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? 2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? 3 Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with,[a] that we should no longer be slaves to sin— 7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. 9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. 10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. 13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness. 14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.
Slaves to Righteousness
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means! 16 Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? 17 But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance. 18 You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
19 I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[b] Christ Jesus our Lord.

From Jeff's Desk….
Today we begin a new series about fundamental facts we must not forget. I remember hearing Alan Highers say in effect that sometimes we teach error by failing to teach truth. You don't have to preach error, just start ignoring the truth on a given subject, and error takes over. I do not assume the hearers in my midst know some of the fundamental facts we will discuss. If you know them, congratulations, this is a refresher course.
Our text today is II Corinthians 4:1-7. The thing I want you to see is that God's greatest treasure, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, is placed in earthen vessels like you and me. The NIV uses the phrase, "jars of clay".
First, I wonder if I would entrust to you my greatest treasure. As a teenager, I was hesitant to let even my best friend borrow my car. I had suffered to buy that thing and feared losing it. One friend was offended when I refused his request. Meanwhile, God's greatest treasure, the treasure He sacrificed to obtain, is placed in the hands of "earthen vessels" like you and me. How unsearchable are His judgments!
God uses earthen vessels in conversions to Christ. In Acts 2 the Spirit is present in a glorious way but God used Peter, an "earthen vessel" to preach the Gospel. In Acts 8 an angel was well aware of the Ethiopian Eunuch searching for truth but that angel called Philip, an earthen vessel, to share the story of Jesus. Acts 9 tells of Saul's conversion. Beyond the flash of light and the voice of our Lord, God sent Ananias, an earthen vessel to instruct Saul further. The same with Cornelius in Acts 10. God could have used angels, visions, or some direct operation of His Spirit to share the treasure with Cornelius. He used Peter, an earthen vessel.
Jesus confirms God's use of earthen vessels to carry the treasure of the Gospel. You are the light of the world, let it shine he says in Matthew 5:14-16. Go preach and teach and teach them again he says in Matthew 28:16-20. He even speaks of the Counselor who will prepare his disciples to testify about him, John 15:26-27. I've always loved that Jesus prayed for we who believe on him through their message, John 17:20.
Sometimes, people are still awaiting some fantastic working of God's power before they will believe and obey the Gospel. Meanwhile, in our midst, God has placed a "treasure" in "earthen vessels" like you and me. Are you carrying that treasure well?
You are probably thinking, that was them, not me. They were good earthen vessels with great treasure, not me, "I'm too earthy". That's the point of the whole matter. You are no more "earthy" than Peter, Ananias, or Paul and the treasure has not diminished one bit. As an earthen vessel with a treasure inside you are obligated to carry the treasure well. Are you???
It is good to be at Southside!!!

From Jeff's Desk…. Our earthly Fathers love us. They desire good things for our life. They would never act to do us harm. But their love is contractual. There is something in it for them. Children bring fulfillment in a father's life, they bring him joy, and they care for him in his old age. God's love is like our earthly father's love. He desires to give me good things in life, Matthew 7:7-12. The Bible is full of convincing pictures of God's love. He runs to greet a fallen son, Luke 15. He made mankind His crowning act of creation, Genesis 1,2 ; Psalms 8. His arm is long enough to save us, Isaiah 59. A father's love is good, God's love is better. God's love is Covenant Love. Covenant Love has characteristics so much better than contractual love. You can spend a lifetime praying to "grasp" the Heavenly Father's love, Ephesians 3:14-21. In God's love there is no condemnation, Romans 8:1-4. There is life and peace, Romans 8:5-8. One lives because of His righteousness, Romans 8:9-11. Covenant love cannot be moved, it cannot be shaken, and it makes us more than conquerors, Romans 8:31-39. If you want a picture of the frustration of living by the "sinful nature" read Romans 7. If you want a picture of living in God's love, read Romans 8. Which chapter describes you? In this life, the only unmerited, unmovable, total love I can experience is God's love. God loves me regardless of my loving Him. God is not dependent on me loving Him, I am dependent on His loving me. Nothing can remove His love from me. The reality of God's love is this, there is nothing I can do to make Him love me more, and there is nothing I can do to make him love me less. Christian's who doubt salvation, doubt God's love. Christians who immediately conclude God punishes them for sin, forget that Christ was punished for our sin. Christians who think they are saved by how they feel, or what they know, or what they do, are minimizing God's love and maximizing man's futile efforts to be saved. To become convinced of God's love is to have the greatest motivation for Christian living in this "sin fallen" world. Some Christians, in doubting God's love, live in doubt and fear when they could live in victory and peace. How are you doing believing in God's love in your life? It is good to be at Southside!!! Jeff W. Smith
From Jeff's Desk…..
To be convinced of God's love, I must come to terms with God's long arm which provides salvation for fallen man. God did not quit loving mankind upon man's rebellion against God. Rather, He acted so that all might be saved. David reflects upon God's creation and man's lowly estate, "what is man that you are mindful of him…..?", Psalms 8.
The fall of mankind is the source of our troubles. When God made it, it was good. Man's rebellion against God produced the fall and the consequence of the fall. When the thoughts of man's "heart" was evil all the time, God used the flood as a cleanser to start again. When man was determined to honor man and not God, God scattered man and confused the language. Read Genesis 1:31 ; 2:4-7 ; 3:14-19 ; 6:5-8 ; 11:1-9. The consequence of sin still reigns in the world. Man's mortality is self-evident. Creation scientists are convinced our weather patterns are still effected by the consequence of the flood. Our language is still "confused". But, over it all and through it all God determined to provide salvation in Christ. Read John 3:16-21 ; Romans 5:6-8 ; I John 4:10 ; II Peter 3:9.
Take a think on some great Bible passages:
First, consider that there was no mercy, no scheme of redemption for angels who sinned. Read II Peter 2:4 ; Jude 6 & Hebrews 2:14-18. It is not angels that God helps, but Abraham's descendants! That includes you and me.
Second, consider Isaiah 59:1-20. Upon declaring the gravity of Israel's sin and its consequence, two great statements are made. First, "Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear." This condition is observable in creation. Second, look close at Isaiah59: 20, "the Redeemer will come". Come, He did in the person of Jesus Christ. It is no surprise that the creation "groans" while awaiting our "adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies". Read Romans 8:22-23.
Man that is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble.BUT, that is not God's fault! God "so loved", God "sent", God "is not willing that any should perish", God reveals "truth" by sending "light". Anybody who doubts or denies the love of God, has not read or does not believe the truth of God's word. You should be convinced of God's love because He has a long arm of salvation, and uses it!

From Jeff's Desk….
We can be convinced of God's love by acknowledging the fact that mankind is God's crowning act of creation. God gave us the power of freewill, therefore, we can choose to honor our Creator, or not. Our intelligent mind cannot ignore the observable reality that mankind is far superior to all other living things.
Read Genesis 1:26-31. Mankind was fashioned in the spiritual, rational, emotional, and the volitional image of God. Volitional is our power of choice, our freewill. We are not made in God's physical image, God is spirit. In a tragic episode at the Cincinnati Zoo last week, Zoo officials realized the life of a child was of greater value than that of an endangered lowland "grey-back" gorilla. This decision had to made quick. Did they learn the value of human life from the Bible or just observe that in nature? I would to God that all humans would choose to glorify God in our daily existence. Many do not. Read Ecclesiastes 12:13-14. Note the purpose of mankind given in the Genesis text. To "fill the earth", we have. To "subdue it", we have. To "rule over", to the extent we can, we have. It seems easy for me to distinguish between the chirp of a bird or the moo of a cow, and the reasoned and formed communication of man. Mankind's role in the universe testifies to God's love.
Read Psalms 139:1-18. The fact that we cannot escape the presence of our creator should comfort the righteous and scare the unrighteous. I am "fearfully and wonderfully made" is almost an understatement when one considers DNA, the coded information that is found in every cell of your body. The Bible says life is in the blood (Leviticus 17:11) and everything we know about our circulatory system reveals how true this is. Imagine the blood in your body. It processes oxygen from your lungs and delivers it to every part. It brings back waste products to just the right place to be disposed of. The process is performed over and over and over again. Your blood includes 20 different clotting factors that offer repair when the system is interrupted. If one of 3 billion complex DNA "words" is out of position, you can have serious abnormalities. If one clotting factor is out of sequence you can bleed to death, or have a life threatening condition with a clot in your brain or lung. God balanced all systems just right so you can live in this universe.
If you doubt God's love, consider your humanity! Look around and observe the exalted position of man in the universe. God created man with purpose, design, and intellect. In all that is observable, we begin to realize God's love.
It is good to be at Southside!!!

From Jeff's Desk…..
Memorial day is a fitting tribute to soldiers who have died on the battlefield for our freedom. What began as "decoration day" in 1866 has evolved to honor all soldiers from all wars who gave their life for our freedom. Without a "Memorial Day", we might forget.
King David would not let the people forget what God had done. As the ark is moved into Jerusalem David leads the people in a psalm of memory and praise. Read I Chronicles 16:1-36 & Psalms 105:1-15.
The Old Testament is full of memorials. The Passover was a special memorial so that when their children inquired, the story of God's deliverance could be told, Exodus 12. That 12 Stone memorial in Joshua 4:1-7 was there to remind them that the flow of the Jordan was cut off as they entered the land. Samuel raised a stone, an "Ebenezer". This was a stone which said, "thus far, the Lord has helped us", I Samuel 7:12-13. The Feast of Purim celebrated God's deliverance of the Jews from destruction. Mordecai and Esther were used together, Esther 9:18-23.
There are great New Testament Memorials. One woman broke open a box of very expensive perfume and anointed the body of Jesus. The disciples thought it a waste of good perfume, Jesus said it was a memorial to her (and Him) whenever the Gospel is preached, Matthew 26:6-13. Every time we read or preach this story, the prophesy of Jesus is fulfilled. Later in that same chapter there is that feast of celebration, the Lord's Supper is established. The bread and the cup memorialize the body and blood given by Christ to redeem us from sin. Read Matthew 26:26-30 & I Corinthians 11:23-36.
We need memorials because people are forgetful. God blesses us continually, then one day something doesn't go to suit us, and we doubt God's love. Remembering what God has done, especially to save us, is very necessary. Would any among us say to God, "What have you done for me lately?" Christians should never put God to the test. Those habits of prayer and Bible Study, and assembling are great ways to never forget what God has done.
It is good to remember good soldiers who gave their last full measure of devotion for our freedom. It is better to continually remember God's gift to us in the person and finished work of Jesus Christ our Lord. Christians are in a constant state of memorial. Remembering God's love will convince you of God's love.

Just a reminder of tomorrow symposium on the impact of the recent financial, political and social crises on the urban space in Athens.
The symposium is situated within the debate on global urban justice, in which issues regarding politics, economics, and spatial organisation are understood via the specifics of the urban condition. In this sense, many of the issues facing Athens today are not just a narrow Athenian concern, but have profound impact on the form and structure of the emergent European post-crisis city.

The majority of New York motorists who drive into central Manhattan oppose paying an $8 congestion-pricing fee, even after hearing how it will help reduce air pollution, a new poll released yesterday showed.
The survey, commissioned by the Partnership for New York City, shows that 61 percent of the drivers who would be most impacted by the flat fee oppose it – even after being told that it would cut smog, worked well in London and will pay for mass-transit improvements.
Just over a third, 35 percent, would support the fee, according to the poll conducted by Global Strategy Group.
The survey was taken from March 12 through April 4 – a month before Mayor Bloomberg unveiled his proposal to charge motorists $8 to enter Manhattan south of 86th Street between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
It quizzed 500 city drivers who often enter Manhattan between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. on weekdays, and has a 4.4-point margin of error.
Kathy Wylde, head of the Partnership, which backs congestion pricing, pointed out that the poll was taken before it was known that Bloomberg's plan would credit motorists the round-trip amount they pay in tolls for the MTA and Port Authority bridges and tunnels.
"I think that would change that number" in opposition, she said.

As if NY didn't pose enough challenges to my wallet and the strength of my financial will power (already shaky), next time I'm in Manhattan Beads of Paradise NYC will be a must-visit.
They have a range of beads and jewellery, from Asia and Africa, and there is a lot by which to be tempted. This emerald strand closes with a gold plated clasp (kind of a clanger for me given the price and the piece – a solid gold clasp would have been a nice touch) and sells for USD$3,000.
The site tells you everything you always wanted to know about emeralds and a bit more: Emerald is the modern and traditional birthstone for May. Emerald is the only stone besides topaz that is listed in all of the ancient birthstone tables. Emerald is the most precious stone in the beryl group. The name emerald comes from the Greek "smaragdos" via the Old French "esmeralde", and really just means 'green gemstone.' Emerald's precious green color is caused by trace amounts of chromium and vanadium. Emeralds are considered one of the four precious stones; the sapphire, the emerald, the ruby and the diamond. Emeralds are found in many countries, but Columbia and Brazil are the major producers; Columbia is recognized as the source for the finest stones. They are also found in Pakistan, Russia, Australia, South Africa, India, Norway, and the United States. Incas and Aztecs of South America, where the best emeralds are still found today, regarded the emerald as a holy gemstone. However, probably the oldest known finds were once made near the Red Sea in Egypt. These gemstone mines, already exploited by Egyptian pharaohs between 3000 and 1500 B.C. and later referred to as 'Cleopatra's Mines', had already been exhausted by the time the mines were rediscovered in the early 19th century. Written many centuries ago, the Vedas, the holy scriptures of India, say the emerald enhances the well-being, and are supposed to aid in fertility and abundance. Commonly today, they are closely associated with love and gifts of love.
