Have you positioned yourself for God's call to more?
The position we need to hear and understand God's call to more is a prayer position. The trouble is: most workplace leaders (including pastors) are simply too busy to learn and practice prayer. If that is not you, it is someone you know and love.
Allow me to share a method of positioning prayer that has been particularly helpful to me. We will do that in (at least) two parts; beginning with the model for positioning that Jesus left us.
Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples." So He said to them, "When you pray, say:
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us day by day our daily bread.
And forgive us our sins,
For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one." —Luke 11:1-4
Notice that the disciple did not ask Jesus "how to pray." Interestingly, "how" is a very common word in the Bible. In fact, it appears 550 times in the New King James Version. So why is it absent here?
I am convinced, and I hope you will consider, that the disciple was asking for more than instruction in prayer. He recognized that Jesus' way of prayer was so far removed from their own that what they had been calling prayer might as well have been called "apple."
The disciple was asking Jesus to make them men of prayer. This He has promised to do—for them and those that desire to know God's purpose and plan for this season of transition.
Jesus' way of prayer was about life and relationship. It availed much. It was full of humility and trust. Matthew records His thoughts on the contrasting prayers of men.
And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. Therefore, do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. —Matthew 6:7-8
The prayers of men are about men, and what men want. The prayers of Jesus were (and are) about the Father, and what the Father wants. In this saying, Jesus reveals that learning to pray, at its core, is more about finding the right position before the Father than about what we have to say.
"The Model Prayer" is a model of prayer for our positioning. It is through this model that we come into the Father's presence – in humility, meekness and total dependency on Him. Without this positioning, all that we have to say are the vain repetitions of man.
When we choose to desire what He desires, we find that the desire of His heart is relationship.
Many who are following Jesus—even for many years—have yet to make this prayer a part of their life in Him. It takes diligence and perseverance. Most of all, it takes a passionate desire for eternal life—to know God and His Son (John 17:3). If we will be soft before Him, He will give us the desires of our heart (Psalm 37:4).
The fervent prayer of a righteous man begins in the proper position: In abject humility, meekness, patience and trust before God. I pray that you find that position soon and often.

Drama exploded among the K-Pop fandom after an ignorant, 'racist' remark a Miley Cyrus fan allegedly made regarding the K-Pop genre.
It is uncertain what exactly launched this whole drama but K-Pop fans had grown outraged when a Miley Cyrus fan supposedly wrote on Twitter that "K-Pop is only know in Asia" and made "other racist comments" along with the hash tag "#RipMileyCyrus." The Miley Cyrus fan had written this Tweet after past pictures from Justin Bieber's concert and EXO's concert in Tokyo, Japan, both of which were held on the same day but at different times, surfaced online.
The tweet was in response to these pictures which seemed to show that Bieber's concert was empty but EXO's concert was packed, and K-Pop fans' claims that EXO is more popular than Bieber. The hash tag "#exosnatchedjustinsfansparty" had even trended on Twitter. However, it appears that the pictures uploaded only showed Bieber's concert after it was over, which led to the misunderstanding that no one showed up to his show.
When the photos went viral, that's when the Miley Cyrus fan supposedly made the claim that "K-Pop is only known in Asia," and K-Pop fans began targeting the pop star on Twitter, dragging her into the drama for something she didn't have a direct involvement in under the assumption she was the one who said those things. Some K-Pop fans are even claiming that it was Cyrus fans who started the "#RipMileyCyrus" hash tag and then blamed the K-Pop fandom. Now the whole K-Pop fandom is involved, and everything seems like a complicated, confusing web.
So far, Cyrus has stayed silent on the whole drama, as K-Pop fans and Cyrus fans continue to wage war on Twitter.

We invest to earn returns so understanding investment returns is quite crucial to becoming a better investor.
Investment returns can be calculated in different ways.
The simplest way to calculate returns is absolute returns:
Absolute Returns % = (Current Value - Invested Value)/Invested Value * 100
Example: If you invested Rs 10,000 and now its value is Rs 11,000 then your absolute returns % is (11,000- 10,000)/10,000 * 100 % = 10 %
Note that in calculating absolute returns, there is no relevance of the time it took to get those returns. In the above example, the investment of Rs 10,000 could have become Rs 11,000 in 1 year or in 10 years, the absolute returns % remains the same i.e. 10%.
This is what you see as earnings/gains % upfront in your Goalwise dashboard and goal details pages.
However, earning a total of 10% in 1 year is very different and much more preferable than earning the same amount in 10 years. Hence, in order to distinguish the two, we need to measure 'returns per year' or annualised returns. This return calculation is known as CAGR (Compounded Annual Growth Rate).
If absolute returns are like the distance travelled by your investment, then CAGR is the speed with which your investment has travelled or grown.
Conceptually, CAGR = Absolute Returns/Investment Duration (in Years)
The above is not the exact formula for CAGR because investment returns are not calculated as simple returns but as compounding returns, but this is good enough for understanding the concept.
Usually when we want to evaluate or compare investments, we want to look at their CAGR because absolute returns will depend on the duration of our investments. So in order to compare two of your investments, one with absolute returns of 12% in 1.5 years and another with 2% in 1 month, you need to compare their CAGR.
A 12% return in 1.5 years is approximately 8% annualised (CAGR) and 2% in 1 month implies a per-year returns or CAGR of 24% (actually even more than that because of the effect of compounding) - very high by any standards! This is something that new investors should keep in mind when evaluating their investments.
For evaluating how your investments are doing, look at the CAGR, not absolute returns.
SIP returns or Generalised CAGR
In case of SIP or even multiple lumpsums, many times absolute returns number might seem a bit low, especially for investors just starting out. The reason is that your money has been invested over time and not all at once.
For eg in case of a SIP of Rs 10,000 for an year, only the first 10,000 is invested for the entire year, the next 10,000 will be invested for only 11 months, the one after that for only 10 months and so on with the last 10,000 being invested for just one month.
This is very different from investing the entire Rs 1.2 lakhs in one go right at the start for the entire year.
In this case, the CAGR calculation considers each investment separately to come up with an overall annualised returns % that would have grown the periodic investments to their current value given their individual investment durations.
This kind of generalised CAGR calculation is also referred to as IRR (Internal rate of return) or XIRR. Different terms are prevalent in different contexts, but the concept is the same.
You can see this generalised CAGR calculation when you hover on the absolute returns on Goalwise.
Again, for evaluating how your investments are doing, look at the CAGR and not absolute returns.

"WHY are sponsors going to support this?" Hope asked me, as I sat with a group of ladies at Creative Women of the World (CWoW) the other day, explaining that we're working with women in Kenya, and how we're going back again in the fall to work with them again. This is why
should support this, and come to our global celebration event, right?! As I'm trying to get people on board with what CWoW is doing for the world, as I'm trying to tell people why coming to our upcoming event is important, I missed the whole point of everything... where is the connection? People here don't really
who Grace is, or what
happens in the lives of women when we give a part of our lives to help them develop theirs. So in an effort to connect my little piece of CWoW in Kenya with the rest of the world (or at least those of you who follow my blog), I've put together this short 6-minute video. You'll notice the Mwangatu Women are not included in the video, except for their hands. This is what they requested.
I'm heading back again in September, and some of the things that we'd like to accomplish on our next trip are:
- Bookkeeping help & ledger training.
- Quality & design improvement. (Still working with them on quality zippers & sewing.)
- We'd like to bring them sewing machines & at some point in the future give them sewing classes & training so they don't have to outsource that part of their work. This will decrease overall production costs.
- We'd like to research a place for them to set up an actual brick & mortar shop in the Nairobi area so they have a place they can go to work and call their own.
- We're also in the process of researching other types of products they can make to sell both in Kenya and US. If CWoW is going to be able to market and sell their products, we have to give them an idea of what's marketable in the US.
- Additionally, we spend time going to different businesses in Nairobi to see how we can collaborate with them in product development.
- Always encouraging, loving, and building relationships with them!
These are just a few of the goals we have for going forward with the Mwangatu Women in Kenya, and Grace Mwangi is the leader in all of it. We could not do it without her help, and we love being able to continue working with her. We also could not do this without all the continued support from our sponsors and friends! You all are so integral to the change being made in the world.
So this is WHY we do what we do. For Grace. For the Mwangatu Women. For every woman around the world who is fighting so hard to just survive.

Closed Doors
I cry myself to sleep,
Just wishing it would stop.
Maybe tomorrow it will cease,
Then again maybe not.
You push me and you poke me,
You call me hurtful names.
To me it's like a living hell,
To you it's like fun and games.
Your heart is made of cold ice,
But it doesn't even deserve that.
Mine was once a rainbow,
But you've molded it to a black hole.
I hate you; I hate everyone,
There is no one I can trust.
Are you proud of what you've done,
You've turned my soul into dust.
If there was a door I could open,
A simple path I could tread.
I don't want to be stuck here forever,
In this endless spiral of dread.

April Fool's Day
Today being April 1, I take the occasion to tell the story of one of the greatest April Fool's Day pranks ever. Jonathan Swift set this one up months in advance.
Astrologers were popular in the early 18th century, as they are now, and Swift considered them all frauds and the people who believed them fools. The most prominent astrologer of his day, the 18th century's Jean Dixon, was one John Partridge, who published a yearly almanac of predictions. In January of 1708 Swift, under the pseudonym of Isaac Bickerstaff, called out Partridge in his own set of "Predictions for the Year 1708."
Among his predictions—the prediction that was indeed the entire purpose of his pamphlet—was the following:
My first prediction is but a trifle, yet I will mention it, to show how ignorant those sottish pretenders to astrology are in their own concerns: It relates to Partridge the almanack-maker; I have consulted the stars of his nativity by my own rules, and find he will infallibly die upon the 29th of March next, about eleven at night, of a raging fever; therefore I advise him to consider of it, and settle his affairs in time.
Literary scholars believe that Swift chose the March 29 date so that he could then publish "The Accomplishment of the First of Mr. Bickerstaff's Predictions" as close to April 1 as possible. (April 1 itself was out because it was a Sunday.) In any event, a follow-up letter–someone supposedly reporting to a nobleman–announced the death of Partridge. Here's how it begins:
In obedience to your lordship's commands, as well as to satisfy my own curiosity, I have for some days past inquired constantly after Partridge the almanack-maker, of whom it was foretold in Mr. Bickerstaff's predictions, published about a month ago, that he should die the 29th instant, about eleven at night, of a raging fever. I had some sort of knowledge of him when I was employed in the Revenue, because he used every year to present me with his almanack, as he did other gentlemen, upon the score of some little gratuity we gave him. I saw him accidentally once or twice about ten days before he died, and observed he began very much to droop and languish, though I hear his friends did not seem to apprehend him in any danger. About two or three days ago he grew ill, was confined first to his chamber, and in a few hours after to his bed, where Dr. Case and Mrs. Kirleus were sent for, to visit and to prescribe to him.
The observer goes on to describe Partridge's final hours, including his final death bed retraction where he admits to being a fraud:
"By what I can gather from you," said I, "the observations and predictions you printed with your almanacks were mere impositions on the people." He replied, "If it were otherwise I should have the less to answer for. We have a common form for all those things; as to foretelling the weather, we never meddle with that, but leave it to the printer, who takes it out of any old almanack as he thinks fit; the rest was my own invention, to make my almanack sell, having a wife to maintain, and no other way to get my bread; for mending old shoes is a poor livelihood; and," added he, sighing, "I wish I may not have done more mischief by my physic than my astrology; though I had some good receipts from my grandmother, and my own compositions were such as I thought could at least do no hurt."
An elegy about Partridge also appeared. Here's the first stanza:
Well, 'tis as Bickerstaff has guess'd,
Tho' we all took it for a jest;
Partridge is dead, nay more, he dy'd
E're he could prove the good 'Squire ly'd.
Strange, an Astrologer shou'd die,
Without one Wonder in the Sky!
Needless to say, Partridge was still very much alive and in his almanac the following year unwisely published a rebuttal claiming that he was still alive. In other words, he didn't realize that only a humorous response would have been effective. Instead, his title seems to indicate that he thought Bickerstaff was an actual person who could be exposed by the mere fact that he mispredicted Partridge's death. The rebuttal carried the title, Squire Bickerstaff detected; or, the astrological impostor convicted.
In addition to asserting that he had not died, Partridge also revealed how he had become the butt of jokes:
I could not stir out of doors for the space of three months after this, but presently one comes up to me in the street; Mr Partridge, that coffin you was last buried in I have not been yet paid for: Doctor, cries another dog, How d'ye think people can live by making of graves for nothing? Next time you die, you may e'en toll out the bell yourself for Ned. A third rogue tips me by the elbow, and wonders how I have the conscience to sneak abroad without paying my funeral expences. Lord, says one, I durst have swore that was honest Dr. Partridge, my old friend; but poor man, he is gone. I beg your pardon, says another, you look so like my old acquaintance that I used to consult on some private occasions; but, alack, he's gone the way of all flesh —- Look, look, look, cries a third, after a competent space of staring at me, would not one think our neighbour the almanack-maker, was crept out of his grave to take t'other peep at the stars in this world, and shew how much he is improv'd in fortune-telling by having taken a journey to the other?
Of course, Partridge's claim that he was still alive was too delicious an opportunity for Swift to pass up. Therefore Bickerstaff defended himself in A vindication of Isaac Bickerstaff, Esq; against what is objected to him by Mr. Partridge in his almanack for the present year 1709. In it Bickerstaff/Swift is righteously indignant for being so roughly handled:
Mr. Partridge hath been lately pleased to treat me after a very rough manner, in that which is called, his almanack for the present year: Such usage is very undecent from one gentleman to another, and does not at all contribute to the discovery of truth, which ought to be the great end in all disputes of the learned. To call a man fool and villain, and impudent fellow, only for differing from him in a point meer speculative, is, in my humble opinion, a very improper style for a person of his education.
Bickerstaff then goes on to prove that, despite Partridge's assertions to the contrary, he is in fact dead. Here is Bickerstaff's proof:
[My vindication] relates to an article in my predictions, which foretold the death of Mr. Partridge, to happen on March 29, 1708. This he is pleased to contradict absolutely in the almanack he has published for the present year, and in that ungentlemanly manner (pardon the expression) as I have above related. In that work he very roundly asserts, That he is not only now alive, but was likewise alive upon that very 29th of March, when I had foretold he should die. This is the subject of the present controversy between us; which I design to handle with all brevity, perspicuity, and calmness: In this dispute, I am sensible the eyes not only of England, but of all Europe, will be upon us; and the learned in every country will, I doubt not, take part on that side, where they find most appearance of reason and truth.
Without entering into criticisms of chronology about the hour of his death, I shall only prove that Mr. Partridge is not alive. And my first argument is thus: Above a thousand gentlemen having bought his almanacks for this year, merely to find what he said against me; at every line they read, they would lift up their eyes, and cry out, betwixt rage and laughter, "They were sure no man alive ever writ such damn'd stuff as this." Neither did I ever hear that opinion disputed: So that Mr. Partridge lies under a dilemma, either of disowning his almanack, or allowing himself to be "no man alive". But now if an uninformed carcase walks still about, and is pleased to call itself Partridge, Mr. Bickerstaff does not think himself any way answerable for that. Neither had the said carcase any right to beat the poor boy who happen'd to pass by it in the street, crying, "A full and true account of Dr. Partridge's death, etc."
Secondly, Mr. Partridge pretends to tell fortunes, and recover stolen goods; which all the parish says he must do by conversing with the devil and other evil spirits: And no wise man will ever allow he could converse personally with either, till after he was dead.
He gives a couple of other reasons but those two are the best. If you want to read the entire back and forth, you can go here for the complete Bickerstaff-Partridge papers.
Bickerstaff's career didn't end there. He would go on to become the fictional editor of The Tatler, Addison and Steele's famous publication. Unfortunately for those who love truth, Patridge's career didn't end either. As Swift himself frequently lamented, satire isn't very good at changing the world, and people continued to turn to astrologers, including to Partridge, for psychic information.
The affair, however, made for a spectacular April Fool's joke.

what's the shaft kiln
Shaft Kiln is building material equipment, is the main equipment for sintering cement clinker in cement production plant, which can be divided into cement kiln, metallurgy chemical kiln and lime kiln according to different materials.
The calcination principle of shaft kiln is: mix the solid fuel (coke or anthracite) with qualified stone evenly, use rotary discharging device equipped on kiln roof to discharge the mixture into the kiln, then under its own gravity the mixture proceeds through preheating area, calcining area, cooling area, and finally calcined into qualified finished lime product.
The heat produced by the coke and anthracite of the preheated mixture and the kiln bottom blasted secondary air which has been used to preheat the cold lime has made the temperature to reach up to 950 ~ 1200 °C, thus to complete lime calcination. Due to the add of auxiliary combustion-supporting duct, the temperature at each point is uniform, which ensures the even temperature of the kiln body.
And this kind of kiln is a Thermal Equipment which is used for heating materials, like cement, copper Metallurgy, ferrous metallurgy, refractory material, paper making etc.

Have you ever thought about telling people a little something about the gemstones you use to make the jewelry they buy from you? What wonderful stories are behind so many of our natural gemstones, beads and crystals. Here's a bit about aquamarine, just to give you an idea.
Early sailors carved aquamarine into small amulets of the god Neptune, and believed this would protect them from seasickness, nightmares, and drowning. This beautiful gemstone is also associated to other legends involving water. It's no wonder, as the word aquamarine literally means "ocean water". Ancient sailors believed that the fish-like lower portion of mermaids' bodies were made of aquamarine. The stone was also submerged in water for medicinal purposes. This water was believed to be endowed with power from the stone, and have the medicinal use of reversing poison, and healing ailments of the heart, liver, stomach, mouth and throat.
When aquamarine is given to someone, it is said to represent safety and security. Included here are a few examples of Etsy artisan favorites who use aquamarine in a most magical way. Check them out for inspiration (or buying, if you happen to fall in love)...
To the right is an Aquamarine Mermaid Beaded Necklace of wire-wrapped jewelry and healing crystals, by Majestic Queen.
On the left is an exquisite 18/24 ct gold necklace from Bimonia, with Mexican Fire Opals, Ethiopian Opal and Aquamarines.
And to below is another one of my favorite designs, an Aquamarine, Ruby, and Apatite Necklace with 22k gold-filled beads - from Moontree Boutique.

No, heart this isn't some existential question for you to ponder. but feel free if you wish to do so.
My typical client is a small business or organization, neuropathologist usually with a small one-ten person staff. Sometimes bigger, sometimes smaller (like an all-volunteer nonprofit).
You are passionate about what you do but also know that life requires balance and you know how to play and work (although work is also fun for you). You might have a slightly irreverent sense of humor or a sarcastic streak–or at least appreciate that in others.
You are probably fairly entrepreneurial and motivated and are usually striving to do what you do better but also thinking up new projects and ideas at the same time.

Polls opened at 7am this morning and will close at 10pm tonight. Up to one in five will have already voted by post, and they may have done so when the Leave or Remain campaign was enjoying a burst of momentum, which could produce unexpected results.
The results are being counted by 380 Local Authorities across the country, most of whom will declare their result overnight. These Authorities vary in size; Birmingham is the largest with around 700,000 voters, compared to the Isles of Scilly with just 1,600. Once collated, the national result will be announced in Manchester.
A conclusive result should be clear around 5am, unless it is extraordinarily close. Sunderland, keen to maintain their status as the fastest counters, are set to declare at 12:30am. We will know 50% of the results around 3:30am and 75% around 4am. Local Authorities such as Swindon and Nuneaton, where levels of support for Remain and Leave are finely balanced, will be announced between 1am and 2am, and could provide an early indication as to which way the vote is likely to go.
If Remain win, expect an announcement from the Prime Minister early on Friday morning with a message of victory, but conciliatory in tone. If the Leave campaign win, expect a far more measured statement with a big decision on his future. It has been reported that after voting closes this evening, pro-Leave MPs will publish a letter calling for the Prime Minister to stay on, whatever the result, to see through the renegotiation with the EU. In defeat however, the reality is that this is unlikely to happen. Instead we are likely to see the Prime Minister stand down as soon as a new leader is elected which could be by the Party Conference in October. The Leave camp have indicated that in the event of a vote to leave, Labour MP, Gisela Stuart, would make an initial statement from the Leave camp with Boris Johnson and Michael Gove waiting until after a statement from the Prime Minister before making any pronouncement.
One thing is for sure, by this time tomorrow, Britain's fate in the EU will be decided, for now at least.

WOODSTOCK Oxfordshire England — Even at midafternoon in Northern latitudes night's tentacles were beginning a slow embrace around opulent Blenheim Palace Sir Winston Churchill's 300-year-old gargantuan birthplace.
Blenheim is a perfect day trip an hour by train from London to Oxford then the local bus to Woodstock. About 55000 tourists visit annually. www.blenheimpalace.com.
The palace was financially "rescued" by Charles the ninth Duke of Marlborough's 1892 arranged marriage to American railroad heiress Consuelo Vanderbilt.
After Consuelo's 1921 divorce from him Charles married Gladys Deacon another American heiress whose fortune continued financing Blenheim's exorbitant maintenance and restoration.
We had toured the museum chronicling Churchill's extraordinary life viewed the palace's elegant first floor rooms wandered beautiful themed gardens and lunched in the cheery caf.
"The sign says the front gate is locked at 2:30 but it's locked early" my cousin Richard said screaming breathlessly. "We can't get to our bus stop."
Through the narrow apertures of the massive iron gate the shelter for the bus to the train station loomed tantalizingly close but unreachable through 20-foot-plus high Blenheim stone walls.
Facing the long road back for help the World Heritage Site seemed a distant speck through quickening dark.
In late November there were scant visitors. It was getting colder by the minute. The wind strengthened seizing unfettered control across the capacious treeless lawn of the 2000 acre estate where we were mere ants.
As the veteran traveler among my cousin his wife Joyce and my husband I became uneasy about potential dangers of our plight. I began walking very fast ahead running down a ravine to the parking lot where headlights of a lone car appeared.
"We're stranded inside. Could you please drive us out to the bus stop?"
The young man looked surprised at my entourage appearing over the hill but gallantly packed us in to the small cars typical in Europe.
"Were you going to the palace?"
"No. I live in Woodstock. I come to walk almost every night on the estate."
Our eyes widened in alarm as he drove for at least 15 minutes making turn after turn down winding unlighted roads through woods. "Wow This is several miles to the bus stop. We could have gotten lost."
"Yes. When the main gate is closed."
Stuart a friendly charmer who said he is an environmental consultant refused payment. We left money on the seat for him.
Our rescue paled in comparison to high drama unfolding during the centuries at Blenheim — political and personal intrigue making television's "Desperate Housewives" look tepid.
Yet Blenheim's displays seem to detour the electrifying "juicy stuff." The second floor features animated historic figures of staff with recorded voices explaining their opinions and duties. I thought each playlet went on too long.
Except for the friendly caf workers many palace staffers seemed uninformed about amenities. At first no one could tell us times the small train ran around the property. After they voiced a schedule we discovered the train does not even run in winter months. Staffers suggested substituting a buggy ride. We learned that is not offered in winter either. Staffers generally seemed unenthusiastic burned out. Maybe regular job exchanges or retraining would regain vibrancy.

So, last week I went to see Primus at the Orpheum in Boston with Brian and some of his friends.
Going in, I liked that Les had brought the 2 set idea that he picked up from the jam band scene back to Primus. I especially liked that the second set was going to be
So, the show starts up, and I see what as become to Primus. They have become a jam band. Well, almost. Les really tried to bring the ideas from the jam band scene back to Primus. At time, it worked well. Others, I felt like it wasn't. I feel that Larry missed opportunities at points to really take Primus in to the jam band feel. There were times I felt that Les was laying down something really nice and Larry could have just gone off and really taken a spotlight in the jam, but he didn't.
The first set was alright. I forget that SO much of the music I like of Primus is on Seas of Cheese. The Mr Kringle ending was a good way to end the set on a high note. My favorite piece of the show was American Life with the BEST jam of the night in to Jerry Was A Race Car Driver, a Primus classic. The overall presentation of the Seas of Cheese was really good, though at points, the pieces I expressed above came out. An attempted jam just turned in to Les having some fun on the bass with Larry laying down some random notes. The encore was a severe let down with Mary the Ice Cube from the new CD. It's a slow drifting song, instead of a nice strong ending. But, as the song says, doesn't nothin ever last forever?
The one thing I did learn the night of the show is that Primus is doing the Phish thing and is putting all their shows online at Primus Live. Gonna have to pick up the show once it comes out (a little slow, as opposed to Phish who has them up in like 2 or 3 days).
I had a site that had the set list, but it was somewhat weak (missing the teases and such), so if anyone has a good set list, send it along.

39 Funny Sexy Halloween Costumes That Prove Funny Is the New Sexy
The age-old (well… probably not quite) Halloween dilemma: Your punny sense of humor is dying to go with a funny Halloween costume, but another part of you wants to look sexy. Well, you're in luck, girl, because it's official: Funny *is* the new sexy. That said, we get what you're actually going for, so we've brought you 39 Halloween costumes that prove you can get freaky (in a weird but sexy costume way) and still wear those fishnets on Halloween.
1. Sexy Seahorse ($149): Could this pair any more perfectly than with a Life Aquatic group costume? We think not! (via Yandy)
2. Energizer Bunny: Wow! Talk about a throwback to the classic ads. These days you don't hear much about the Energizer Bunny, but she did a great job of bringing it to life as a Halloween costume. You'll be going… and going… all Hallows Eve — no matter how much you dance. (via Coolest Homemade Costumes)
3. Sexy Darth Vader: Surprisingly, there are tons of variations of the Star Wars villain. Some sexy, some not so much. This one falls squarely into the former category. The Vader mask adds a hint of mystery, no? (via Costume Models)
4. Sexy Grinch ($40): One major perk to wearing this costume is that you'll be keeping in-character by being an over-the-top grump all night. Salty can be sexy, right? (via Yandy)
5. Sexy Stormtroopers: The thing is, your S.O. will probably looove this. We say go for it. (via reddit)
6. Sexy Takeout: Now we've seen it all. Not only is this a costume based off of a Chinese food takeout container, but they've legitimately tried to make it sexy. Are we missing something? (via Boredom Rage)
7. Sexy Rosie the Robot ($55): And so we meet again, Rosie. The world just can't stop trying to make the faithful companion of the Jetson's sexy — and who are we to try to stop them? (via Yandy)
8. Sonic the Hedgehog: Never in our lives did we try to imagine what Sonic the Hedgehog might look like IRL. Now that we know, we'll go ahead and say it: Those ears are dope.
9. Darling Magic Dragon Green ($59): This costume's name is pretty descriptive, but we're struggling to see where the "darling" part comes in. People will definitely see those magic green boots from a mile away, though. (via Asylum Zone Costumes)
10. Barney: Unbelievable. Just like that, all those sweet childhood memories turned to garbage. We obviously remember Barney from our childhood, but we never imagined we'd see a sexy take on the purple dino. (via Buzzfeed/Yandy)
11. Cowgirl ($80): Oversized cowboy garb paired with an itty-bitty denim get-up definitely fits the bill for sexy/funny. It's comical and skin-baring. (via Costumeish)
12. Sexy Sonic the Hedgehog ($79): It's hard to take this costume seriously! The pointed hood and the red thigh-highs definitely qualify this get-up for the funny-sexy category. (via Yandy)
13. Fashionable Game Uniform ($59): TBH, we're not entirely sure what this costume is. But we have confirmed that it includes a "colorful animal garment." For starts, does "game" refer to something you play or something that's hunted? One's thing's for sure: It'll definitely be a great convo starter. (via EiiBuy)
14. Sexy Mime ($46): We're in support of making the mime sexy, especially if you decide to make your Halloween makeup style center stage. If anyone is rude, you can give them the silent treatment and stay in character. Genius. (via Pink Impulse)
15. Sexy Gremlin: Sure, Gizmo's cute, but those other Gremlins were terrifying! This sexy-scary-nostalgic-silly costume totally nails it. (via Buzzfeed)
16. Layered Fox: This costume takes the prize for weirdest of the funny-sexy costume collection. We've literally never seen anything like it! (via Ice Fox)
17. Ash + Sexy Pikachu: We've seen more than a few couple's costume ideas using Ash and Pikachu, but this is adorable! Give Ash something to chase after, if you know what we mean. (via Coolest Homemade Costumes)
18. Sexy Avengers: All we know is that crop tops, cut-offs and deep V-neck's spell S-E-X-Y. And yet, this is somehow leaning more towards the odd side of things. (via SomeECards)
19. Sexy Mummy ($40): The only crime this costume commits is making dirty linens look intriguing. Girlfriend can rock that wrap… but let's be real: Does she look like she's in a body cast? (via Yandy)
20. Sexy Olympian ($50): With the Olympics just wrapping up, what could be a more perfect theme for this Halloween? Grab yourself a gold medal to flaunt and you'll have the sexiest gold medal-winning Olympian costume ever. (via Yandy)
21. Cheshire Cat ($70): She's literally covered in a furry, hooded suit… and still going for the "sexy" look. Weird? Check. Sexy? …Check? (via Yandy)
22. Sexy Hamburger ($40): Let us be heard: This will become a weird/sexy Halloween classic. Our favorite part is the sheer "meat" section right at the midriff. (via Yandy)
23. Sexy Pizza ($70): Forget the food, this costume is the new late-night staple. Plus, that crust acts as a nice head rest after a long night of looking delicious. (via Yandy)
24. Naughty Nun ($25): Don't worry, we won't tell Reverend Mother. Although this does feel slightly blasphemous. (via Halloween Costumes)
25. Cry Baby ($60): Yes, someone went there. Be disturbed. Be very disturbed. (via Yandy)
26. Sexy Watermelon ($62): First of all, watermelon in October?! You'll never look at your favorite summertime snack the same way again. (via Yandy)
27. Black Bear ($89): We're maul over this. This claws are definitely giving us vibes more along the lines of "high five!" than an "I'll claw you!" Still, The Revenant basically ruined this costume for us. (via Halloween Costumes)
28. Cute Carrot ($50): They do say that carrots are good for your eyes… so go ahead. Feast them. (via Yandy)
29. Sexy Mouse ($59): This costume officially makes naughty Mickey our new favorite mouse. Our only question is: Why not Minnie? (via Yandy)
30. Sexy Ted ($70): First of all, the scene from Ted where he imitates Hootie and the Blowfish (and all '90s bands) is hilarious. Second, this costume is really, really weird. Basically, it rocks. (via Yandy)
31. Sexy Wolf ($109): This gives "big bad wolf" a whole new meaning. Is that hair on her chest? (via Yandy)
32. Snowman Costume ($37): Olaf, is that you? This is hilarious… and yet… somehow still sexy… Hmm. (via Yandy)
33. Goldfish Costume ($35): Wear this and you'll have an excuse to sport your best duck… err, fish-face all night long. But, hey, we'll take any excuse to wear knee socks and converse over heels any day. (via Halloween Costumes)
34. Striped Clown ($100): Your worst nightmares have officially come true. ROFL. (via Yandy)
35. Sexy Donald Trump ($70): Oh, wait… on second thought, maybe this is your worst nightmare come to life. If you want to also go around shouting "Make American great again!" while fixing your combover, that'd be totally acceptable too. (via Yandy)
36. Sexy Corn ($60): We never thought a yellow BBQ food could look quite this delicious off the grill. Meet a stick of butter on October 31 and consider it a match made in heaven. (via Yandy)
37. Rock Lobster ($55): To make this costume even weirder, we think we'll go for a cannibal-esque crab dinner while wearing this on Halloween. And yes, we will be wearing those pinchers through the whole meal. (via Halloween Costumes)
38. Sexy Rocket Babe ($68): We have no doubt that you will indeed create a lot of BUZZ when you show up in the party to this. Wink wink. (via Yandy)
39. Sexy Skunk ($109): The smelliest roadkill on all the highways and byways just got an upgrade. With the right perfume choice, the power is yours to break all stereotypes… but remember: Smelly is not sexy. (via Yandy)

I asked my mother what was in her mother's cedar chest when she gave it to me.
"I don't know."
"You don't know?"
"I've never opened it."
This is as close as my mother ever came to admitting she had emotions.
Over the years, I've taken a few things out.
My grandmother's wedding dress was packed away carefully. I took it out to wear to my mother's 80th birthday and it now hangs in a closet.
A poster my grandfather had translated and annotated with his notes about his first years as a customs agent in Nogales, Arizona, where my mother was born, I gave to a nephew last year at a family reunion. He is now a customs agent on the Mexican border.
My grandmother's diploma from the University of Kansas, in 1907, I took out to show an author at her book-launch party recently, as she had written about pioneer days in Kansas and her daughter had graduated from the University of Kansas.
My grandfather's diploma from the University of Chicago, majoring in Philosophy, is there, too. My son graduated from the University of Chicago graduate school of Computer Science. His undergraduate degree, from the University of Virginia, is in Philosophy and Math.
A gold-painted box contains my grandmother's mother's breast pin, empty, with a hand-written note that it used to contain a picture of my great-grandfather.
There is also a rolled-up faded ribbon with a note from my grandmother that it had been on my mother's wedding bouquet.
A pair of soft, yellow woolen booties.
Three fans, one a beautiful ivory. Delicate, fingerless long, organza summer gloves.
My grandmother had kept a poem from a newspaper clipping that I suppose summed up her thinking on letting a baby get dirty every now and then:
The Antiseptic Baby
The antiseptic baby and the prophylactic pup
Were playing in the garden when the bunny gamboled up
They looked upon the creature with a loathing undisguised
It wasn't disinfected and it wasn't sterilized!
They said it was a microbe, and a hotbed of disease
They steamed it in a vapor of a hundred odd degrees,
They froze it in a freezer that was cold as banished hope,
And washed it in permanganate with carbolated soap.
In sulphurated hydrogen they steeped its wiggley ears.
They trimmed its frisky whiskers with a pair of hard-boiled shears.
They donned their rubber mittens and took it by the hand,
And 'elected it a member of the fumigated band.
There's not a micrococcus in the garden where they play.
They swim in pure idioform a dozen times a day;
And each imbibes his rations from a hygienic cup,
The bunny and the baby and the prophylactic pup.
She kept the paper I wrote after interviewing her about her time as a teacher in Valdez, Alaska and her adventures in Nogales, Arizona, when Pancho Villa used to come through and shoot up the town. I must have sent it to her to show that I got an A+.
She kept a letter she wrote me about her ancestors, one of whom had founded the town of Bremen, Ohio, in 1834, now a suburb of Columbus.
It was named after Bremen, Germany, where his wife was from.
And, of course, the photos – of my grandmother as a young teacher, of my mother and uncle as toddlers.
There is my mother's baby book and my grandmother's wedding book.
There is a card from the Daughters of the American Revolution, accepting my grandmother's application to join.
There are papers my grandmother wrote, such as the undated term paper, "Individual Instruction for Socially Unadjusted Children," for which she received an A.
And, there was a 1946 paper "Academic Instruction for Emotionally Disturbed Children," which must have been written while she was Principal of the University of Michigan hospital school, citing "Four Case Studies of Adolescent Girls Under Treatment in the Neuropsychiatric Institute of the University Hospital."
There is much more in this time capsule, telling me what my grandmother held most precious, family, education, work, roots.
The next time one of my grandchildren asks to look inside this mysterious cedar chest, we will explore it together.

And so now I consider myself much wiser and considerably more safely cynical. I'm snug in my skepticism and cozy in my disbelief. That didn't prepare me for what I learned last week. How was I to know that 55 years of shoe tying as I knew it was all a lie?
Tying my shoes is as automatic as breathing. I estimate that I've tied my shoes more than 30,000 times over the years. I estimate that the last 29,750 were done without thinking. I estimate that 10,000 of those shoe tyings were retying shoes that came undone. I've tied my shoes in the dark, looking the other way, and while involved in conversation. I had taken it for granted that shoelaces, by their very nature, become untied during the course of a day. Just retie on autopilot and go on.
I hate to blame my parents, but they taught me the wrong way to tie my shoes. I've been taught what is known as the "Granny Knot". I bet there's a good chance you were taught the Granny Knot, too. After you tie you laces, does the bow run longitudinally along the length of your shoe? Do you laces invariably become untied? You're not alone.
Once I discovered this I had to begin the painful process of relearning to tie my laces. I'm 4 years old all over again. My fingers are spastic. What once took 3 seconds now takes 10. What once was done while watching the news or telling a joke now takes concentration that forces my tongue out the side of my mouth. I now finish lacing my shoes with the same sense of pride I felt 55 years ago. It's taking a LONG time to get used to. All those years of habit and muscle memory won't go away easily. And I'm haunted by the thought that by the time this becomes second nature I'll need someone to tie my laces for me anyway.

Working as an escort in Las Vegas versus other cities clearly has its benefits and disadvantages. However, the benefits definitely outweigh the disadvantages as long as you know what you are doing. Read on to find out more. If you are already convinced that you should work in Vegas, then just go here and apply to get your escort services marketed effectively online –
www.linkedin.com/company/vegasdreamescorts www.vegasdreamescorts.com/application.
As an escort, you need to go where the money goes. If you want to work in a tiny town with a 30,000 population, with no major corporation headquarters there and with low visitor count, you are going to struggle big time making money as an escort. You want to go where the big money is, where the businessmen, movie stars, tourists and rich people go to – Las Vegas. One of America's most popular spots for tourists and businessmen, Vegas clearly has lots of cash flowing through it, and working there will ensure that you have a chance at tapping into this vast amount of cash flow going through the city every month. Even getting a small part of the pie in Vegas will mean making a stable income for yourself.
Escorts are not frowned upon in Vegas. In fact, it is very normal to meet many escorts along the streets, many of whom are accompanying some very wealthy and successful business executives along the Las Vegas strip. Many visiting businessmen and athletes like the companionship of a beautiful woman while having fun at the poker tables or simply touring the city. However, if you tried being an escort in a place like Atlanta Georgia, you will probably be given odd looks and be judged by strangers if they suspect you are an escort. In Vegas? As long as you are beautiful and the man you accompany is rich, you are seen as a superstar.
Las Vegas has both business and leisure conventions and performances throughout the year, including Christmas and New Year. This means that you will experience a steady flow of potential clients coming into the city all year round. This is good for business, as this means that your income will be relatively stable.
Of course, the crux to achieving all of the above is to first learn more about the legalities in the city as well as applying to be listed on prominent websites online so that you can be found by potential clients. It is a tough business due to the insane amount of competition, but if you manage to stand out, you will be making so much money you won't know what to do with it.

How does the news business navigate ethical challenges, especially in today's political climate? Rob Vaughn (above), longtime anchor at 69 News, shed light on the subject while delivering the keynote address at The Fleming Institute for Business Ethics competition at DeSales University.
"When it comes to issues of ethics and integrity, there are some assumptions that are always percolating in the back of what we do," said Vaughn. He pointed to such hallmarks as the pursuit of truth, accuracy, transparency, and honesty.
Vaughn also discussed the complexities of social media for those in the news industry. Companies, like his, encourage personal interaction with viewers, but there's a fine line to what those in the business can and cannot post. Vaughn does talk about personal things, like his family or favorite foods, on his Facebook page, but he avoids anything controversial, such as politics.
Fairness is another issue news stations face every day. While Vaughn admits to getting flak from some viewers, he says he strives to give everyone a fair shake. "I have always had a personal goal that viewers cannot discern from my stories what my personal view on the story is."
He also challenged students to think about their own ethical decision making and what it's founded on. "We all trace our own personal ethical commitments back to something. What's the source of your personal ethical system?" he asked.
Students competing in the Ethics Bowl had to tap into those personal ethical systems. They played the role of CEO of a rapidly growing online auto insurance company, and had to decide whether to submit a bid for 13,000 driverless cabs knowing that the number of driving-related deaths would increase during the first few years.
All eight teams presented their cases in the preliminary round and the judges selected four finalists. Then came the twist. "The twist deemed that the self- driving cars were the way of the future and we had to decide if we wanted to implement a new ethical framework that put an emphasis on the people inside of the vehicles – protecting them first instead of society first," said Sean Palen '17, a finance and accounting major on Team B from DeSales.
Team B came in fourth place, winning a trophy and prize of $500; Team F from Penn State Berks came in third place, also winning a trophy and prize of $500; Team G from Penn State Lehigh Valley came in second place, taking home a trophy and prize of $1,500; and Team D from Lafayette College walked away as first-place finishers with a trophy and grand prize of $2,500.
"It's a good day; it's a positive day," said Martin Brett, associate professor of sport management and co-chair of the competition. "I always leave saying I wish we could get more students to have this experience, and I think everybody feels that way."
Richard Fleming and his family foundation established The Fleming Institute for Business Ethics in 2009 with a goal to promote a culture of ethical awareness and action in business professions through the collaborative efforts of corporate and educational groups. The work of the institute is administered by the DeSales University Division of Business, in collaboration with the Salesian Center for Faith & Culture.

It's the small book that's making a big impact...
"On All the Things That Make Me Beautiful" is my first book, hopefully the first of many. It only seemed right that I start with something close to my heart. Even when I'm not trying to, I often gear my writings toward women. I encode in them messages of love and support. I have to. I can't see what I see and know what I know and not do it. Just isn't possible.
Women are so amazing. We're often considered the weaker sex, but we display a type of emotional strength most men can't match. Quite literally, we've carried the entire world, from the comfort of our wombs to the hustle and bustle of this mortal life... I could go on. This is my passion. Let me stay focused.
This book covers so many topics. Everything from health and beauty, to love and heartache, to music and friendship, to doubt and forgiveness. There is something for everyone, even men. Many of the topics are universal and can benefit men just as much as women. It gives men a peak into the feminine mind (which many of you say you don't understand). Visit my official site to read an excerpt and buy the book.
What people are saying about it
"Nadirah your book is so inspirational and so insightful its one of those book that you can't stop reading. Nadirah your book touched me in a way that no other book has, and it was shocking when I noticed tears rolling down my face." N. Khalifah, Kansas City
"I read the book in one evening and I suggest it for anyone who wants to be inspired or share inspiration with others. I really related to the part 'On Love' because this author knows how to write in a very REAL and beautiful way. I hope you all benefit from the book as much as I did and enjoy!" C.

Ethiopian Lentil Spread and Dabo
"Honey has always been an important part of Rosh Hashanah for a sweet year. But there were no apples in Ethiopia. Traditionally at Rosh Hashanah we would slaughter a sheep. Roast it on a spit and eat the meat with honey." Simon Griver
Recipe courtesy of Ayala Yasu, an Ethiopian-Israeli, who in 1984 flew to Israel with Operation Moses.
2 cups red lentils
3 tablespoons oil
2 medium onions, diced into cubes
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup boiling water
1 teaspoon hot paprika
1 ½ tablespoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon chicken soup
Salt to taste
Turmeric to taste (optional)
Cook the lentils until soft. Saute onions and garlic in oil in a separate pan until soft. Add hot and sweet paprika and water; simmer on low flame for five minutes Add cooked lentils and chicken soup. Add salt and turmeric to taste.
Dabo Ingredients:
2 ¼ pounds of flour
2 tablespoons yeast
½ teaspoon salt
3 ½ cups lukewarm water
Combine all ingredients and allow dough to rise about 1 ½ hours. Place dough in a large pan and bake until golden. Cook on the other side until golden.
