I was excited to get this book after having Jack Countryman's God's Promises for Boys. I was delighted to see how very cute and colorful the cover was!
This is a wonderful compilation of scripture verses to encourage women in their Christian walk. It is broken into twelve different chapters with titles such as "God Delights in Women Who Are…" and then gives several subjects to read scripture about. I liked that about his book. It's the Word of God, so you sure can't go wrong with this one! At the end it gives the plan of salvation. I was glad to see that, especially if it was bought by or given to a woman who was not a Christian, but maybe seeking God.
It is also a great tool to keep around the house. I have already used it several times for a quick reference of scripture to encourage someone.
It would make an excellent gift for someone new in the faith. I would recommend it!
This book was provided for review by Thomas Nelson Publishers.

Ulster Unionist education spokesperson, Rosemary Barton MLA, has said she is shocked and horrified at revelations on the BBC Nolan Show that some exam grades have been changed significantly after a review was requested.
Mrs Barton said:
"This is a shocking revelation. I cannot begin to imagine the frustration and annoyance that this is to pupils and parents. As a former teacher of 32 years, I know this will also be distressing for all the staff involved.
"We believe and trust that professional bodies like CCEA will not make such major mistakes, especially those which can have such a lasting impact on a young person's entire future.
"Now that such a mistake has been exposed the question remains as to how many other children were given the wrong result?
"It is vital that the entire marking and scoring process by CCEA is reviewed. More urgently however they should investigate the cases that have been brought to their attention, particularly those that have been marked by individuals where there are such significant differences in the scores. I also believe it may be necessary to reopen the appeal process to allow those who received what they believe to be wrong scores to have them looked at again.
"It should also be noted that prior to an examination teachers make a submission to CCEA of the expected grade of a pupil – I would urge CCEA to check these against the actual grade awarded and if there is a great discrepancy to investigate immediately."

Torchwood: Countrycide
"What is that smell?"
"That would be grass."
"It's disgusting."
Apologies for bothering those of you not based in the UK with a pop culture reference you many not get, but this story's title reminds me of a certain quip made by the great Stephen Fry. I couldn't possibly say anything about it without breaching the COC in no uncertain terms, but if you don't instantly get the reference then Googling "Stephen Fry countryside joke" should do the trick. Anyway…
Might as well start as I mean to finish; I started watching this so unimpressed with Chris Chibnall's script and, up to a point, the direction of the series (so much so that there's been a little unintended hiatus…). But I unexpectedly ended up liking this rather a lot, which is odd for a number of reasons.
The opening sequence is great, with the use of "Monster" by The Automatic actually managing to give this rather annoying song a justification for its existence, which is no small achievement. And after the credits we're thrown straight into a scene with the Torchwood team in the car, which demonstrates the great strengths of this episode; good characterisation and genuinely witty dialogue. After a bit of friction and unevenness with the writing of the characters (which really has to be laid, ironically, at Chibnall's door), this is the episode where the team seems to gel. All the characters now feel fleshed out and, if not necessarily likeable as people (I'm talking about Owen here, of course), at least entertaining company as characters.
And we get some good character moments in the early scenes. Tosh's attempt at innuendo ("Need a hand getting it up, Owen?") gets an unnecessarily cruel single entendre in response ("If I did, I wouldn't ask you,"), and she's extremely jealous when Gwen admits to having snogged Owen. There's also Gwen's faux pas with Ianto, and the great scene with Owen using psychology to get inside Gwen's pants. And it's all just about the shagging, naturally. He may be a total git, but he's entertaining for us viewers. That's good writing.
Of course, the plot itself is basically The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which is not really my sort of thing, hence my initially not expecting to like this episode. I don't necessarily find the genre unpleasantly violent (it's done with too much staged artificiality for me to really suspend disbelief enough to be affected much), but I suspect there are all sort of standard slasher movie tropes here which are flying above my head. It doesn't matter, though; the situation works in terms of how the characters react and how their relationships develop. Oh, and I liked James Moran's Severance, of course.
Well, except for Jack; I'm getting a bit tired of this miserable git he seems to have turned into. Noticeably he's the only member of the team who has nothing interesting going on character-wise right through this episode.
This is shot really quite well, with loads of suspense and sudden glimpses of threats suddenly moving in the corner of the screen. The whole situation reminds me of labyrinth-based computer game shooters like Doom. And yes, that really is the most up-to-date relevant computer games reference I can think of.
Ianto and Tosh are captured, where Tosh reveals that "I haven't met a cell yet I couldn't get out of." So we can definitely expect there to be absolutely no long stretches in cells in her past whatsoever.
Of course, the big reveal is that the baddies are not aliens but people who harvest other people every ten years because, well, they're country people and country people are weird like that. I remember back at the original viewing being genuinely surprised, especially that they'd pulled what seemed like a major genre-subverting trick so early on in the series. This time round, unsurprisingly, it seemed rather more signposted and rather less significant given the lack of surprise.
I like the ending, with the deliberate refusal to give us a psychobabble explanation; the baddies are just bad. And the final scene, with Gwen and Owen clearly having an actual affair, feels in keeping with what we've seen.
Not the best episode ever, perhaps- I still have concerns about the uneven tone of the show- but good characterisation earns this a 4/5.

It is perhaps the central most challenge facing the human race today — the effort to beat back the destructive potential of climate change.
Global warming has already wreaked havoc on our beautiful green earth — from devastating the ocean's barrier reefs, to creating massive deserts where plants, greenery and life once flourished.
A big problem like this needs a one-of-a-kind champion — and that entity is Avaaz. Established in 2007, Avaaz has grown into the world's largest online social, political and environmental advocacy group.
To date, some 47 million people worldwide have joined Avaaz. They have donated money, or leveraged the infrastructure of the organization to get projects going that make positive changes in local communities. A major focus of Avaaz has always been climate change. Certainly, without the voices raised by millions of Avaaz volunteers, the landmark Paris Climate Accord would never have been signed.
Avaaz uses the international community of internet users to educate, inform and identify problems. Then they make it possible for anyone to start doing something practical and realistic.
Avaaz has active members in 197 countries. Collectively, it has taken an astonishing 375 million actions since it was established. Furthermore, Avaaz gets things done by sticking to a strictly grassroots model — that means accepting no major donations from big corporations or greedy billionaires. It relies on small donations from millions of people who just want to get off the couch and get something done.
Avaaz empowers people by giving them a voice — and that's just what Avaaz means — "voice." But Avaaz also provides practical tools and guidance so that definite actions are taken and quantifiable results are produced.
The people of Avaaz believe climate change can be beaten, stopped and reversed. It believes our planet can be saved. It happens when people come together, get organized and take action. That's what Avaaz does.

Body and Mind-Sex and Stress and anxiety
Have you ever asked yourself that the role of testosterone in improving sex drive and also enhancing erections in guys can not be its only function? There are several other roles as well as organic results of testosterone aside from its recognized existence in physical liquids. It has been criticized for excess hair loss (medical name-Androgenetic alopecia) although the molecular actions of loss of hair in males and females are not totally understood.
This hormonal agent is produced in the testes of men and also the ovaries of females, although males produce more of it. Numerous kinds of mental habits are not only subject to influence by atmosphere as well as genes however additionally everyday hormone adjustments. Stress could additionally hinder testosterone synthesis and also therefore lead to lowered levels of it secretion.
Some products information has actually lately arised. Current studies have actually revealed that to maintain anxiety at bay you ought to frequently participate in penetrative penal-vaginal sex. Numerous people from all strolls of life locate that under anxiety, they do not have the desire to have sex and also produces unfavorable side effects such as sex-related disorder.
A fantastic study (Organic Psychology, volume 71, page 214) revealed that sex however more ideally sexual intercourse is a lot extra efficient in combating stress after that various other sexual task such as masturbation. As some of us are worried regarding talking in public or stage scare as its commonly called are link being suggested to have sex (not on the phase of course) for the anxiety calming impact.
When a pair makes love the neurotransmitter oxytocin released reduces as well as loosens up the body blood pressure thus likewise protecting against stress, it is thought. Oxytocin is secreted by the brain as well as various other organs including the testes and also ovaries. It is believed that oxytocin is considerably lowered throughout the tension and also mixture here of the hormonal agent soothes stress in animal models thus suggesting a function in controling some physical feedbacks to stress and anxiety.
In the light of such elegant studies and lack of public tension programmes such as screening by government companies aimed at enhancing recognition, treatment, and decreasing tension as well as anxiety main prevention has become necessary. As stress and depression has come to be an usual problem with severe lots of undesirable negative effects both in males and females, penetrative penal-vaginal sex can be a main tension prevention strategy.
A brilliant research (Organic Psychology, volume 71, page 214) showed that sex yet even more ideally sexual intercourse is a lot a lot more reliable in combating stress and anxiety after that various other sexual activity such as self pleasure. It is believed when a couple makes love the neurotransmitter oxytocin launched loosens up the body as well as decreases blood pressure hence additionally stopping tension. It is believed that oxytocin is dramatically reduced during the stress and anxiety as well as infusion of the hormonal agent eliminates tension in animal versions thus recommending a function in regulating some physical actions to stress.

how grand is it?
1. there is this paint work going on the in the house to which although i am contributing near zilch still warranted my bouts of superfluous supervision.
2. the occurrence of words at regular intervals which made sure that i was reminded of the shabby state of my lexical strength and which made sure i was referring the dictionary at disturbing frequency.
3. the absolutely fabulous game of cricket which was followed by the hopeful anxiety.
although the three points above were the primary reasons why i was not able to complete into thin air by jon krakauer at a single go [also it has been awfully long time since i completed a book in a day / single go], i still was able to be through with around four fifths of it. and the reasons were:-
1. it was a non-fictional account of things people do for the romance of it, the enormity of nature and paradoxical state of triumphant life in the face of fallibility [perhaps due to chance or perhaps nature itself wanted so too].
2. although off late rapid movement on high-altitude roads isn't leaving me comfortable but mountains have always impressed me.
3. although i might never be able to get into technical mountaineering and it is not even a burning desire to do any life-threatening climb such as everest but who knows.
into thin air is about an expedition undertaken by some people to climb everest and losing their lives. although i believe that you need to have done some kind of strenuous trekking, if not outright technical mountaineering, to really understand how not easy should conquering something as grand as everest be considered - even if you have the will, the determination, the ego and the resources - a message which probably the author wanted to relay across.

While searching for something else, I came across this entertaining collection of grand predictive failures related to resources and climate change, along with some of the biggest predictive failures of Paul Ehrlich. I thought it worth sharing.
How could scientists have made such off-base claims? Dr. Paul Ehrlich, author of "The Population Bomb" and president of Stanford University's Center for Conservation Biology, told FoxNews.com that ideas about climate science changed a great deal in the the '70s and '80s.
Ehrlich told FoxNews.com that the consequences of future warming could be dire.

Waterson Way campers warned
PEOPLE camping in vans on Waterson Way in Airlie Beach are warned that infringements will be issued if security staff catch them camping in the parks.
Whitsunday Regional Council implement regular patrols of Waterson Way and will now issue infringements of $200 to any people deemed to be camping in the car parks.
Camping is defined as occupying or sleeping in the van without proof of alternative accommodation.
Council's Program Manager for Environment and Compliance Scott Hardy said it was illegal for people to camp anywhere in the Whitsundays that was not a designated camping zone.
He said that in recent months Waterson Way had become a bit of a hotspot for campers as they were given marching orders from other illegal camping areas in Airlie Beach.
"Through their network of other travellers they seem to migrate around the town," he said.
Local residents like Debbie Bosset have taken notice of the problem as well.
She expressed her concern about the bad image it created for the Whitsundays.
"I don't want to see people cleaning their teeth and spitting in the gutter," she said.
"One of the girls I work with saw a female squatting in the gutter and urinating beside her campervan.
"It just doesn't look very nice, that's all."
Backpackers will argue when looking for low budget accommodation in the Whitsundays, they aren't exactly spoilt for choice.
Belgium tourists Damien Sarolea and Delphine Biller voiced their concern about parking in the Whitsundays. "We would love to have a place here to park," Ms Biller said.
"It seems to be a real touristy town."
They both suggested that a designated area for backpackers in campervans somewhere slightly outside Airlie Beach could solve the problem for all parties and enable them to meet other like minded travellers.
Mr Hardy said that Council were in the process of negotiating with commercial operators about the viability of this.
In the meantime, travellers can stay in the various caravan parks and tourist parks in the area – but they obviously must pay.
Mr Hardy said people camping at Waterson Way and any of the sign posted no-camping zones in the Whitsundays would be fined.
There are four clearly marked no camping signs on the corners of Waterson Way.

While the feral side of Skyrim provides some very cool things to play around with, I've personally found it VERY difficult (and to an extent, useless) to continue to play as a werewolf after level 45 or so. While you're fast and dish out a lot of damage, you also take a tremendous amount in return - this is mostly as a result of the werewolf's lack of a decent (or even any, really) armor bonus. I'll leave the final decision up to you - we're here to talk about the perks!
|They actually made the perk tree look like something relevant. How nice of them!
First, you need to understand that you can only access this tree when you are actually in werewolf form (and hence have your race changed from whatever to werewolf). Second, you can only purchase perks if you eat NPC corpses, NOT creature corpses or undead corpses, etc. The more corpses you eat, the faster you can buy the perks in this tree.
Bestial Strength: This is the only perk with multiple levels (4). Each one upgrades the damage you do as a werewolf by 25%. So, by maxing this out and you'll do double damage with your attacks. Also, as its the first perk in the tree, you can't buy any other perks until you put at least one point in this one.
Totem of Ice Brothers: Taking this perk makes your Totem of Brotherhood howl call Ice Wolves instead of regular wolves. While that's a really nice thought at lower levels (sub ~30) the value of this perk is unnoticeable by level 40.
Totem of the Moon: A solid high-level upgrade to Totem of Ice Brothers; instead of Wolves, your Totem of Brotherhood now summons Werewolves. You'll notice the difference at any level.
Totem of the Predator: This skill upgrades the Totem of the Hunt, extending the range, plus what state the targets are in - combat, searching, or not in combat. Useful, but probably the least 'important' perk in the tree, especially since it doesn't lead to any other perks.
Totem of Terror: Makes howl of terror effect higher level enemies. If you use howl of terror often, get this sooner rather then later. If you never use it, try using it, and if you like it, buy this perk sooner.
Animal Vigor: +100 HP and Stamina. This should be your second point spent in the tree.
Gorging: As a werewolf, feeding mid-combat (when possible) is key to surviving. This perk doubles the health you regain from eating corpses. Useless out of combat.
Savage Feeding: So after taking this perk, you can feed off almost any creature, however doing so only extends wolf form by 1/2 the amount of eating a normal NPC would.
So that's it. Bestial Strength, Animal Vigor and Gorging are easily the clear winners in this tree, as they all directly effect combat without involving the AI. Not that the other perks don't help (because they sure do), but there's just something about relying on summons to do damage - especially as something as fragile as a werewolf, that I'm not comfortable with.
Honestly, there's no reason you shouldn't max out this tree relatively soon after acquiring it. You'll come across plenty of corpses in Skyrim, and there's no reason to ignore free upgrades, no matter how narrow their usage might be.

Unknown to us some advertisement had been made to encourage the local people of Permaijaya and Tudan to turn up for a popular Eye Screening Blood Pressure and Diabetes Checkups. The turn out was great and all together the Grace Methodist Church volunteers and the Society of the Blind gave free consultation to more than 350 eager patients from 8.30 to 3 30 !! More were still coming but our Specialist doctor had to stop his non-stop work!
Well designed forms to help the participants to ease their queue to have their eyes examined.
Very keen volunteer - recording the visual/acuity reading records.
A very dear child - so innocent. Hope he receives lots of blessings and grow into an upright and God fearing man!!

We had wondered whether the latest twist in this damned election campaign was worth writing another post about. At first it was just the FBI re-opening the e-mail investigation because new e-mails had been discovered.
However, it turns out that the new e-mails were discovered during a probe of top Clinton aide Umma Abedin's estranged husband Anthony Weiner for "inappropriate" communications with an underage female; and on a laptop shared by Umma and her pervo hubby at that.
Not only this, but it turns out that Clinton people who had been given immunity to force them to answer questions LIED despite having been given said immunity.
You may think Donald Trump is rude, crude, and socially undesirable. But he is much preferable to having Hillary Clinton - who respects nothing but that which enriches her and gives her more power - in the White House. A Trump presidency might be a disaster. With Hillary Clinton in the White House, disaster is a certainty.

Three Westpac staff members were in fear for their lives when a gang of armed criminals leapt over "anti-jump barriers" at a Victorian branch in September 2004.
The Financial Sector Union repeatedly warned Westpac about gaps in the barriers before the incident.
"To Westpac we wrote 23 times to get the problem fixed," said FSU Secretary Geoff Derrick.
Derrick said to upgrade security, Westpac needed to spend just a quarter of the money it donated to the Business Council of Australia's promotion the Federal Government's anti-worker laws.
"It is a pity that Westpac seems more attracted to the extreme industrial laws of the Howard Government rather than the best interests of Westpac staff," he said.
The FSU is investigating other suspected breaches of Westpac's duty of care where staff have been left traumatised.
"No worker should have to put up with coming into work and facing these risks," Derrick said.

Happy Mothers Day
Got to give my mom a call in the morning to wish her happy mother's day. Just realized that its been quite a while since I last saw either of my parents actually. Something like almost a year and a half. Actually since I've been here in Toronto I don't think I've seen my mom on an actual mother's day during the last decade except for once in 1999.
Just wished things had worked out different I guess but a so it go and I'm here while she's in Barbados. So yep I miss having my mom near me especially on days like this although truth be told mother's day has never been a big deal with my mom. No big deal, no fancy lunches, no flowers, just a happy mother's day. Another day more or less but at least one where I saw my mom.
So I reminisce on my mom especially on days like this. Got to blame/praise her for who I am now because I think she raised my right. She thought me to fear God and to do what's right, she thought me how to respect women and how to respect myself. She thought me not to take any crap. She thought me that education was important and to use common sense. She thought me that if you don't understand something you need to be asking questions, she thought me that you shouldn't put yourself in stupid situations if possible. Use ya common sense nuh lol.
She told me stories and read to me before I could read for myself probably inspiring my creativity. She thought me that one has to be careful in choosing friends and that friendships are two way streets and if one person is putting in all the work then its not a friendship anymore. She thought me about integrity, striving to be the best and how to work hard. Work hard, yea my mom is like the hardest working person out there that I know. Its like she never stops going. If she's chilling then either she's in church or she's sick. Tried to get her to slow down but that's just the way she's always been.
I wish my mom understood me better though.
I wish I was located closer to my mom, that I could do more for my mom, that I could see my mom more often because I know these things will haunt me when she dies. In these things I feel like I've somehow failed. Wish I had done things differently or had made different choices or that I was able to give back to my mom what I think she deserves. But I guess nothing is ever big enough or enough to repay one's parents for what they've done for you. Still wish I could do more though. Makes me feel like a big failure sometimes. Oh well, maybe one day I can do more inshallah.
Happy mother's day.

Oh what a sweet post. Thanks for the Mothers Day greetings.
I'm not to big into the day myself and as I also recall, I don't remember when last my mother and I shared a Mothers Day and more recently when last my son and I shared one. Oh well such is life at times. All least there are within calling distance and as long as there are breathing on this earth we can still reach out to our mothers and next month fathers.

I agree with a lot of what you wrote here JDid.
However, having lost my Mother (five years in June) I would encourage you to either make a trip to see her in Bim soon, or let her come up to visit you in Canada....like you say, you don't want any feelings of "I should have" if your parents happen to leave you in an untimely fashion.
Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers...what would we all be without what they taught and did for us? Dr. D.

Very nice thoughts. I'm sure your mom understands that you can't be there physically as often as you would like. I'm sure you'll get the opportunity to make it back home sometime soon.

sounds like you need to go home for a while. Mothers are extra special and I know mine is very dear to me. We also need to remember all those women who acted as mothers to us. Some are aunts, some are friends of the family, some are neighbours but they helped to raise us and often they gave us the same love and support that our real mothers gave. big up to all de muther dem.

Before 'Nancy & Tonya' Documentary Airs, Find Out If You Can Tell These Facts from Fiction
Oh boy. Twenty years after the violent controversy that shook the figure skating world, NBC is going to air a retrospective documentary about Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding. The two were competitive rivals in the early 1990s and in 1994 Kerrigan was viscously clubbed in the knee during the US Figure Skating Championships. The attack was orchestrated by Harding's ex-husband Jeff Gillooly (who now goes by the name Jeff Stone).
The documentary Nancy & Tonya, which airs on NBC this Sunday at 7 p.m. EST is going to be juh-uicy as Kerrigan rarely speaks out about the the events that transpired in 1994. It will be be interesting to hear the story from her perspective after having so much time to process and move on.
Since two decades have passed since the scandal, a lot of facts have been scrambled and accusations have been hurled. So! Here's a little fact or fiction refresher on the story to get you prepped for Sunday.
Nancy Kerrigan's Career Was Ruined by the Injury
Fiction: Kerrigan made an amazing seven-week recovery after her attack. She also went on to win Silver that very same year at the Lillehammer Winter Olympics. And she still makes appearances on the ice today.
Nancy and Tonya Are Still Rivals
Fact: Well, sort of. In 1998 the two appeared together in a special called Breaking the Ice in which Harding kiiiiiiind of apologized to Kerrigan. It was quite obvious that Kerrigan was far from forgiving and to this day Harding is highly defensive about the scandal.
Tonya Harding's Ex-Husband Did it
Fiction: It wasn't actually Harding's ex-husband Jeff Gillooly who attacked Kerrigan. His associate Shane Stant was the one who ran onto the ice and clubbed Kerrigan on live television. Both men along with another accomplice Shawn Eckhardt were arrested and imprisoned for the crime. They were also caught before another planned attack at Kerrigan's home could occur.
Tonya Harding Got Away Scot-Free
Fiction: Ohhhh how un-true that little rumor is. Harding was stripped of her National figure skating title and was permanently banned from the sport by the US Figure Skating Association. Sure, she's appeared on various reality TV shows (including Celebrity Boxing) and plenty of interviews, but she certainly hasn't had an easy go of it. Harding has more or less been completely disgraced by the scandal.
The Media Fueled Their Rivalry
Fact: Yes, these two were fierce competitors going head-to-head at the height of figure skating's popularity, however, much of the narrative surrounding their story was constructed. They were pitted against each other on a more personal level for mostly arbitrary and made-up scenarios. But since the attack, Kerrigan has remained quieter on the subject while Harding has attempted to tell her side of the story dozens of times from E! True Hollywood Story to Nancy & Tonya.

Clarkson Drives 250 mph car
This is an entertaining read. Well known environmentalist and humanitarian Jeremy Clarkson writes of his experience driving the Bugatti Veyron in the Times Online:
It's basically my car: a VW Passat estate, with a fancy bodykit and smaller wing mirrors.*
You learn to raise an eyebrow at what's only a foible, and then, as the road straightens out, steady yourself for Prince Albert's boiler to gird its loins and play havoc with the space-time continuum. No, really, you come round a bend, see what appears to be miles and miles of dead straight road, bury your foot in the carpet and with a big asthmatic wheeze, bang, you're instantly at the next bend, with your eyebrow raised again.
From behind the wheel of a Veyron, France is the size of a small coconut. I cannot tell you how fast I crossed it the other day. Because you simply wouldn't believe me.

Hey Family!
Well oh well... what a week! I am glad to hear that she (Sister Mink) is resting from her pains and troubles. I have seen too many people suffering from illnesses and pains that I can imagine how nice it will be to finally rest from all of our cares and worries in the Spirit World, well, that is if ya go to Paradise. :)
Ray and Erin? Yeah!!! That is so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could have been there to see the smiles on their faces. TOO COOL!
And Sister Vero Martinez!! Muito legal! Eu falou muito poco portugues, quero aprender mais pra falar melhor. Happy day!
News from changes - nothing! I get to stay another change! Woo hoo! I love it here in Ciudad del Este. The ward here is great! There are so many families here that are awesome! The members here have some strong testimonies and it is such a relief to see a ward that functions well here in Paraguay! We are starting to work better with the members and we are finding some great investigators. We are teaching the mom of Javier Melgarejo, who we were able to reactivate and she has made so much progress! It is amazing to see the difference that the gospel is making in her life. She is going through lots of sicknesses and pains, but it is such a joy to see the hope that the Gospel of Jesus Christ gives to people. We are also teaching some nice little families and we are super excited to see their progress. It has been a little hard starting up this area from nothing, but we are starting to see the fruits of our efforts. It is so different working here in Downtown and the areas round about. It is a different lifestyle, but the Gospel is still so important that everyone needs to hear it! There are lots and lots of Middle Easterners, Asians, and Brazilians here, but the diversity makes it fun. Slowly we are finding the less active families and it is so cool to see them start to make changes in their lives. We found a little family here downtown, where the husband is a less active and his wife isn´t a member, but they are awesome! We are going to be working really hard with them to get them to come back to church (she knows a ton about the church and knows the missionaries VERY well) so that she can be baptized. I really enjoy working here with Elder Eddy, we are working in a different manner than I have in my whole mission, but we are seeing better results. He`s helping me a lot to keep progressing and growing. We are super excited to keep working together here in CdE and edify the Church! :)
I am super happy to hear that everything is going great back home. Don`t get into too much trouble... although I believe I would have liked taking apart the laptop too. Hahaha. Tell everyone I say HI and give them a GREAT BIG HUG! I miss you all, but I am so so glad to be a servant of the Lord and preaching the restored Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It saddens me that time is starting to come to an end, but I am going to make to most out of it and bring back some stray sheep to the fold!
Love you tons!!! CHAU!!!!

strategically, New Zealand is no further ahead on public policy regarding outdoor use of GMOs than it was when the Royal Commission on Genetic Modification reported its findings in 2001. It considers New Zealand is less equipped to make a strategic decision to release GMOs in the outdoors in 2013 than it was a decade ago.The report forms part of the Institute's flagship project, Project 2058. Forty years since the development of genetic modification, the Institute believes it is timely to reassess New Zealand's approach to managing the benefits, costs and risks.
The report provides a comprehensive overview of policy development through four key eras: (1) the journey towards the 2001 Royal Commission on Genetic Modification; (2) the Royal Commission and its findings, (3) the response to the Royal Commission, and (4) the era of institutional change from 2008 – 2013.
The Institute's report makes 12 recommendations on how the current system could be strengthened, stressing the need for transparency, accountability, and consideration of the interests of all New Zealanders.
The report concludes by reflecting on the proposal that 'the most risk-adverse solution is to close down New Zealand's only two GM outdoor experiments on the basis that they create unnecessary public risk, with little or no public benefit, and to use those funds elsewhere. Currently the only two outdoor field tests are being operated by two Crown Research Institutes, AgResearch and Scion, and could therefore be closed down by government.The authors comment that
It is now 12 years since the report of the Royal Commission on Genetic Modification was released. After considering the options available to New Zealand, the Commissioners endorsed a compromise: a strategy to preserve opportunities and proceed with caution. It is timely to review what has essentially been an expensive and time-consuming exercise in public policy-making. The issue of genetic modification (GM) has provided a particularly interesting case study for policy development in relation to assessing and developing strategies for new technologies where the benefits and risks are uncertain.
The purpose of this report is two-fold. On the one hand it seeks to chronicle the history of GM in New Zealand and provide a record of the available data. On the other, it seeks to consider gaps in the current policy framework and provide a meaningful contribution to the continuing debate. The report consists of seven sections and is split into two main parts; the first part, comprising Sections 1 to 5, describes the historical landscape from the beginnings of the technology in the 1970s to the present day, while the second part, comprising Sections 6 and 7, looks at the Crown Research Institute (CRI) system and suggests principles to guide its future, and concludes with a set of observations, recommendations and narrative on future strategy for GM in New Zealand. Importantly the focus of this report is on public policy, it does not aim to report on scientific developments in any detail.
The context of the report and its limitations are outlined in Section 1. Sections 2–5 document the history of GM in New Zealand, breaking it into four eras: the journey to the Royal Commission; the Royal Commission's inquiry; the response to the inquiry, and the current era of institutional change. These sections are supported by the 16 appendices and seek to collate the available data on the topic to provide a factual overview and historical commentary. The journey toward the Royal Commission (see Section 2) started in the mid-1970s with the emergence and adoption of ground-breaking new technology. As a tool it offered benefits, but arguably it came with considerable risks to an agriculture-based economy. Public concern developed accordingly, and the result was the establishment of the Royal Commission on Genetic Modification in 2000.
The Commission was charged with considering the strategic options available to New Zealand to manage genetic modification, and its conclusions were published in a report in 2001 (see Section 3). During this time a pause was put on the outdoor use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) while a deeper understanding of the risks and opportunities was developed. The Commission's report included 49 recommendations conceptualised to allow New Zealand to 'preserve opportunities' and retain optionality. In Section 4 we present an overview of the response to the report of the Royal Commission and consider the subsequent implementation of the Commissioners' recommendations. This era saw both government acceptance of and public protest at the Commission's findings.
The most recent era spans the last five years, during which we have witnessed unprecedented institutional change in New Zealand (see Section 5). As of 2013 only two GM field tests are in operation in New Zealand, but there have been 57 since 1988. Not one of these has resulted in any commercial benefit or tangible return on the public's investment, while all experiments have presented a constant risk. Debates on this subject are often framed as a matter of balancing environmental protection and economic development. Could it be that in this case we have compromised environmental protection for promises of economic development and received neither?
Sections 6 and 7 are the only area of the report to draw conclusions and make suggestions going forward. In Section 6 we take a closer look at the three CRIs that have conducted the majority of GM research in the outdoors since the Royal Commission: AgResearch; Scion, and Plant & Food Research. In this section we also present five principles to drive the current system in order to deliver more effective public investment in the future. These five principles are:
1. Value for money
2. Robust assessment, decisionmaking and monitoring by regulators
3. Ethics should drive practice
4. Timely reporting on controversial experiments is essential
5. A culture of due diligence is vital across science.
The overall goal of Section 7 is to assess whether the system fulfils its purpose, and if not, what the government must do to develop a better policy landscape and operational system to manage the benefits, costs and risks of GM in the outdoors. Section 7.1 identifies ten observations that can be made about the current operational framework. Section 7.2 provides our conclusions on the policy process thus far and provides 12 recommendations in response to perceived gaps in the current framework. Lastly, Section 7.3 presents a strategic reflection, bringing the report to a close by providing a narrative and context for future debate.
We found that many initiatives put in place after the Royal Commission have since been disestablished or not progressed. Since 2001, New Zealand has significantly reduced its ability to collect strategic information to make informed decisions on GM. For example, New Zealand has disestablished the Bioethics Council (2009); discontinued Futurewatch, a work programme of the Ministry of Research, Science and Technology (MoRST) (2011); discontinued the Bioscience Survey, a survey undertaken by Statistics NZ (2013); and have not reviewed or updated the Biotechnology Strategy, published in 2003 and due to expire this year.
We also found considerable evidence that the system is showing symptoms of fatigue. Largely due to the significant institutional change that has occurred in the last five years, information is not well collected or reported (see Section 7.2.5 for examples) and institutional knowledge and therefore analytical capability and linkages are likely to be significantly reduced (see in particular Figure 2 and Appendix 16). Strategically, New Zealand is no further ahead on public policy regarding outdoor use of GMOs than it was when the Commissioners reported their findings in 2001. Indeed, we consider New Zealand is less equipped to make a strategic decision to release GMOs in the outdoors in 2013 than it was a decade ago. We also identified a number of emerging issues that add to this sense of urgency:
1. Community concerns over the use of GM in food production are growing, that is now putting pressure on councils to address benefits, risks and costs in local plans. This is in line with overseas trends, particularly the European Union (see discussion in Section 7.2.6 and 7.2.11).
2. Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is continuing to approve increasing numbers of GM foods, raising issues over labelling and traceability (FSANZ provides a list of approved GM ingredients, but there is currently no list of food for sale in New Zealand containing those ingredients). Further, an application for conditional or full release may not necessarily trigger a 'call-in' by the Minister if it is a FSANZ approved GM food.
3. If the Minister did decide to 'call-in' an application (see s 68 of the HSNO Act 1996), the resulting process is unclear. We suggest that the government is not ready to make such a strategic decision on the first release of a GM crop or fibre.
4. There are a range of emerging molecular plant breeding technologies on the horizon that may not come under the HSNO legislation. One that local developers AgResearch and Scion have expressed interest in is zinc finger nuclease (ZFN-1). In April 2013 a decisionmaking committee of the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA), in response to an application by Scion, reached a decision that ZFN-1 was outside of HSNO regulation (despite EPA staff recommending that these techniques should be considered similar to GM techniques, and not exempt from the regulations) (EPA, 2013: 3). This decision may be appealed but, as it currently stands, there would be no assessment of the public benefits, costs and risks as required under the HSNO legislation; nor would outdoor use of food or fibre crops generated by the tecnique be subject to any controls.
5. The upcoming Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement means New Zealand needs to think deeply about its position of GM crops and other uses.
The Royal Commission purposefully created a strategic pathway for New Zealand to follow. Twelve years later, with little evidence that significant commercial benefits exist for New Zealand through outdoor research, it seems timely to revisit the Commission's recommendation of preserving opportunities, and ask whether New Zealand would not be better to remain a GM-free food and fibre producer.
Our approach to GM crops in the outdoors would be threefold:
1. Buy time: Put in place a moratorium or require a field test before any GMO release
2 Undertake a systemic review: ensure the current system is 'fit for purpose' by implementing the Institute's 12 recommendations
3 Think strategically: revisit the original question - should NZ commit to becoming a dedicated GM-free food and fibre producer?
In the closing section of the report, Section 7.3, we reflect on the way forward. We discuss New Zealand's current position, and argue that we have one foot in and one foot out of GM. We argue that this is a risky position, particularly when combined with the fact that there appears to be a prevailing belief that we operate the most robust regulatory system in the world. Are we putting at risk our global reputation simply because we are failing to critique our own systems? It is crucial that as a country we reflect on what is the best outcome for New Zealand and ensure we create durable public policy to deliver on that outcome. Reactive public policy delivers uncertainty to all stakeholders, creates unnecessary stress within the system for regulators, and is more likely to lead to systemic failure.
Our view is that the most risk-averse solution is to close down New Zealand's only two GM experiments (AgResearch and Scion) on the basis that they create unnecessary public risk at little to no public benefit; the science research funds would be better spent elsewhere. In regard to GM crops and other uses, we suggest retaining optionality through buying time, undertaking a systemic review of the current system and thinking strategically about the best way forward. Most importantly we think it is timely to have a conversation about the future of GM crops and other uses; as indicated by the Royal Commission recommendations, this issue remains unresolved but has always been believed to be a necessary consideration sometime in the future, when more information was available. The time for reflection is now.
Recommendation 1: Investment programmes should be evaluated as a matter of good practice
Recommendation 2: Risk management requires a whole-of-government approach
Recommendation 3: Compliance costs should be fully recovered from applicants
Recommendation 4: Legal liability should be reviewed as coexistence with zero contamination is not possible and definitions of new organisms have become increasingly unclear
Recommendation 5: Data management requires urgent attention
Recommendation 6: Allow local authorities to regulate GMOs or amend the HSNO framework accordingly
Recommendation 7: Before the conditional release of any GMO, a field test should first be undertaken
Recommendation 8: Reviews should be tactical and regular
Recommendation 9: Memoranda of Understanding should be urgently reviewed and updated
Recommendation 10: Strategy should be revisited
Recommendation 11: A high-level foresight unit should be established
Recommendation 12: Decouple hazardous substances from new organisms, creating separate legislation for both

I have recently installed a new hard drive. I have Windows Vista Home Premium UPGRADE.
The install went fairly well, as I did have Vista on the previous drive that died, with one exception. If I try to open desktop from the desk icon, I get an error message that says something to the effect that "rundll32 has stopped...windows explorer will now close" and then the screen loses all icons for a moment and then comes back and anything I was working on is gone. Very frustrating. I am beetr than novice level but not an expert by any stretch...I have tried a few rememdies I have "googled" but to no avail.
Second problem is Vista wont shut down....it just sits on the blue curtain with the message "Windows is shutting down" and nothing happens. Little blue twirlly thing stops spinning at this point.
I dont know if these errors are related but any help would be appreciated
Thanks Tommy

text: Robert Frost's Topics: Meaning of life, Human, Religion Pages: 2 (496 words) Published: May 24, 2007 The two poems written by Robert Frost, "Desert Places" and "Old Man's Winter Night," have the common theme of loneliness. In "Desert Places" the speaker is not walking through woods, he is only passing by and momentarily glancing at this field filling with snow and the trees that surround this field will soon be all that is left due to the snows continuous falling. When he sees this field with snow, he uses it as a device to compare it to his own life and how it will soon be all over and how when he passes on there will be nothing left. The speaker talks of walking through a snowy wood feeling "too absent-spirited to count" as he envisions the other animals of the forest warm in their dens. Frost also uses a strong contrast, such as "with no expression, nothing to express" and "lonely as it is that loneliness/ Will be more lonely ere it will be less." In both cases, the speaker compares two similar word forms while adding a slightly different meaning. The forest has no expression and nothing to express; neither comment repeats the other, but still uses nearly the same elements. Upon first glance, the long string of lonely in the third stanza may seem repetitive, but Frost uses each phrase to his advantage, by saying that loneliness could only be lonelier if some of it were removed, and the thought of this scares the speaker. The poem "Old Man's Winter Night" is a haunting poem about an old man dying in the wintry climate of New England and alone: "All out-of-doors looked darkly in at him / Through the thin frost, almost in separate stars." The poem meditates completely on the human condition as a whole, focused on the single old man here who "stood with barrels round him -- at a loss." The old man is somehow made to bear the weight of all human loneliness, even though "a light he was to no one but himself / Where now he sat, concerned with he knew what, / A quiet light, and then not even that." The man's inner light goes out as he sleeps; there is nothing left... Continue Reading Please join StudyMode to read the full document

Bradford City made their fifth summer signing with the AFC Wimbledon midfielder Jake Reeves for an undisclosed fee on a three year deal.
The 24-year old midfielder started out his footballing career at the Tottenham Hotspur Youth Academy before making his senior debut with Brentford in 2011.
At the start of his senior career Reeves enjoyed a couple of loan spells at St. Albans City and AFC Wimbledon but was recalled to the Brentford squad and came back to Griffin Park to make 34 appearances for the bees in the third tier.
After, a short stay at Swindon Town, Reeves put pen to paper to sign for AFC Wimbledon in January 2015 and played a big role in the Dons step-up from League 2 to League 1.
Despite Reeves only being 24, the Lewisham born midfielder has played nearly 200
appearances already and knows League 1 football inside-out having made half of his
appearances there.
Reeves played an influential part in Neil Ardley's side and the Wimbledon faithful are upset
to see the midfielder leave for League 1 rivals Bradford City.
Jake will feel welcomed though and almost feel at home as he will join his ex-Dons teammate Dominic Poleon who also signed for the club in June.
[getty src="657810676″ width="594″ height="424″]
The Bantams main problem to the 2016/17 campaign was the lack of goals. To this end
Reeves only hit the net 4 times in 109 appearances for Wimbledon, but the Bradford fans
will be hoping to see a more prolific season with Jake in a more attacking role under Stuart
Jake believes that McCall's style of play can bring the best out of him. He is known
to have a great engine and hopes he can make more runs into the box to open up doors and create chances for his teammates, or even pop the ball into the net himself.
Reeves tells the local newspapers that "When I was at Wimbledon, I pretty much played a
specific role. It was more structured in our attacking play." Jake played more of a defensive
role when playing under Neil Ardley which didn't give him the freedom to go forward, but
with McCall's style of fluidity and attacking flow City fans should see a different Jake Reeves.
McCall's philosophy is freedom allowing players to take up alternative positions. If someone moves out of position another player will always cover, which should enable Jake to move into attack and show his true talent.
Stuart McCall feels that Reeves is the ideal midfielder to replace last season's West Ham
loanee Josh Cullen.
Jake Reeves can only wait to be unleashed come August.

You might wonder how Howard County began growing into such a soccer hotbed, especially in and around Columbia, which until the late 1960s wasn't even a brick much less a town pushing 100,000 in population.
This is how.
Blame Dan Bennett, who, his soft Virginia drawl emanating through a Puckish grin, attributes the real reason to "some guys who didn't speak right, because we figured they knew all about soccer."
Understand now, y'all, he intended no insult. Back in 1970 or so, he was simply looking for kids his 14-year-old son could play with. In fact, two of the "guys" he was referring to shared a table with him in a Columbia hotel dining room last weekend, and Bennett's quip had them laughing.

The aftermath of Hurricane Irma has left many of us in need of home repairs. Fortunately, Brevard County was spared the worst of the storm and here at A Mother's Touch Movers, we are incredibly grateful. We have had the privilege of assisting so many residents of Melbourne, FL and beyond with their commercial and residential moves. We have helped move seniors into assisted living facilities. We have been a part of transitions and fresh starts. Melbourne is our home and we are proud to be a part of this community. Despite being spared the worst of the storm, undoubtedly some of you will need some assistance with small repairs. Missing shingles, fallen fences, downed limbs, and debris are just some of the issues you may be facing. Storms of this nature bring out the best in people… along with the worst in some. There are shady repair men out there who feed off of opportunities such as this, and we do not want to see you lose money on faulty repairs. Here are some ways to avoid getting scammed!
According to Home Advisor, there are several types of home improvement fraud and many of them start with an unsolicited knock at your door. Beware of anyone who shows up uninvited to your home and offers a great deal. Scammers who prey on those needing repairs often misrepresent themselves from the start. Many times unsavory contractors will ask for money upfront. NEVER give a company money before they complete the repair. If you sign a contract, make sure you get a copy. Scammers will often try and change their terms but if you have a written agreement you have a means to defend yourself.
You will have several options when it comes to choosing contractors. Before you make your decision, do your homework. Check for licenses and registration. Make sure the company you are considering has good standing with the Better Business Bureau. You can also check sites such as Angie's List and Home Advisor. They do their own vetting and contractors from these sites can generally be trusted. Ask anyone you know who has had similar repairs done to get their opinions. Research your options and take your time making final decisions. A legitimate contractor should never rush your decision by pressuring you into a commitment before you are ready.
No matter the size of your repair, we are glad you are safe and want you to stay that way. Beware of contractors offing promises that sound too good to be true. Do your research and ask all the questions you need to feel comfortable.

An online scam designed to defraud Australians, has falsely used the Australian Federal Police (AFP) logo in an attempt to lure consumers into paying sums of money to unlock their personal computers.
The AFP has received reports from members of the public advising that while browsing the internet, a 'pop up' message has appeared on their computer screen purporting to be from the AFP. The message informs the computer user that their computer is 'locked' and requires the user to pay a fee to 'unlock' their system.
The AFP does not solicit funds and this message is not associated with the AFP in any way. The appearance of the 'pop up' message is due to a virus that is on the personal computer.
AFP Manager of Cybercrime Operations, Commander Glen McEwen says that the public need to be aware of online scams and put appropriate measures in place to avoid getting caught up in them.
Weekly NewsletterEvery Thursday afternoon, we package up the most-read and trending RiotACT stories of the past seven days and deliver straight to your inbox..
"I urge all computer users to be wary of these types of online scams."
"Users affected by this particular scam should not pay any money and should seek support from a repair centre if they need assistance to remove the virus," Commander McEwen said.
Members of the public are advised to be aware of this scam and to consider the general computer safety tips below:
• maintain current anti-virus software that is obtained from a reputable source and is regularly updated
• ensure their operating system is updated to ensure any security vulnerabilities are mitigated
• use strong passwords to protect their personal information
• limit the amount of personal information placed on the internet
• do not provide financial or other personal information to people that you do not know and trust
• never click on links contained within spam or unexpected emails.
Anyone who receives a similar request or believes they are a victim of this type of fraud should report it to SCAMwatch on 1300 795 995 or go to
The SCAMwatch website also includes helpful hints for spotting scams and keeping personal details safe.
