Thomas Coryat
Venice, 1608
I heard the best musicke that ever I did in all my life both in the morning and the afternoon… This feast consisted principally of Musicke, which was both vocall and instrumentall, so good, so delectable, so rare, so admirable, so super excellent, that it did even ravish and stupifie all those strangers that never heard the like.
Captain Cook
New Zealand, 1769
Diversions and Musical Instruments they have but few; the latter Consists of 2 or 3 sorts of Trumpets and a small Pipe or Whistle, and the former in Singing and Dancing. Their songs are Harmonious enough, but very doleful to a European ear… The Young Girls whenever they can collect 8 or 10 Together dance a very indecent Dance, which they call Timorodee.
Alexander Alexander
Glasgow, 1801
As I sauntered about the streets of Glasgow, I saw the new guard marching to relieve the old, their band playing a cheerful air… A military enthusiasm instantly seized me, and I felt as if a soldier's life was the only station for which nature had designed me.
Nat Adderley
Florida, 1930s
They had the chain gang people paving the street. I was not even in school yet, so I was sitting and watching them do it… the guy in front would hit – thumpf… and he'd sing something… And it kept repeating. And I was sitting there fascinated, I loved it. And I never forgot it.
Philip Larkin
to Kingsley Amis, 1943
My favourite record at the moment is Blues in C sharp minor/Warming Up… Eldridge's playing in the blues is fine – especially one suicidal note in the last chorus that gives me the impression of falling from an enormous height to be dashed to pieces

January 2012, Vol. 239 No. 1
Questar Holds Open Season For Uinta Basin Expansion
Questar Pipeline Co. held an open season concluding Jan. 31 to solicit binding support for the installation of nine miles of pipe and ancillary facilities on its Jurisdictional Line (JL) 47 in Duchesne County, UT.
The project will enable QPC to transport up to an additional 30,000 Dth/d from receipt points located on QPC's JL46 and JL47. Assuming it has sufficient binding support by March 1 to underwrite the cost of the required facilities, QPC anticipates the facilities can be placed in service by mid 2013.

Click Here to see if your company will match your donation.

Have a great looking resume. Either make it yourself or have a professional service type one up for you. Make it look professional as schools, institutions and universities here are trying to hire professional people.
Keep it short and to the point. You are applying to teach English in Japan. Everything on your resume should point to that goal.
Include a photo, Japanese do for every resume they send out. It is just common practice here, so hiring managers will be expecting one, and not including one will make your resume seem incomplete.
*"Hey but we don`t do that in America."
--Maybe you should stay in America then. You are not applying for a job in Ohio.
It isn`t done in North America to avoid discrimination in hiring practices.
The photo isn`t used to discriminate between candidates in Japan. (That is the common belief anyway)
If you are inflexible about simple things like including a photo, I`m sure there will be many things you don`t like while living abroad. Every country is different, with different practices and customs. Enjoy the differences.
*State your objectives clearly, "I really want to teach English to children in Japan."
"I would like to teach English to people of all ages and levels in Japan."
*Briefly state your skills and experience
How can you add to the institution or school?
Tell them!
Be confident in your resume, convince the employer that you have the experience and skills necessary to be a good English teacher in Japan.
Learn about the institution and cater your cover letter to it.
Include specific information unique to this particular school.
The manager will be impressed that you have done your homework.
Very few bother to, so you will be ahead of the pack!
1. Unnecessary details about your life
2. Your job as a newspaper delivery girl/boy
3. How much money you would like
4. Anything untrue - don`t ever lie!
5. That you were fired from a job and why
6. TMI - Keep it short, managers are busy. Resumes should look good with plenty of white space. Crowded looking resumes with too much information get recycled.
7. "I`m applying with my uncle, girlfriend, boyfriend, Uncle Herbert, my pet dog Fido." (apply on your own)
In 20 years I have thrown those "I`m applying with my boyfriend/girlfriend." -resumes straight into the recycle pile.
Often we had only one position available, plus the applying together thing is a bit too cutesy for me. I think I am not alone.
It is unprofessional! And you aren`t right! You are a professional.

A marketing campaign to drive sales of beans and peas in the UK is kicking off in June, following on from last year's successful promotion which helped increase spending 86.2 per cent on a year-on-year basis among pre-family consumers.
The campaign, which is backed by Barfoots, Mack Multiples, Manor Fresh and Wealmoor, aims to educate and inspire new customers to try the summer crop of broad beans, peas, runner beans and green beans.
"Beans and peas have been grown in this country to a premium standard for generations but perhaps only the older shopper recognised this," said Diana Rees of Manor Fresh. "With new interest from the under 30s we have confidence British beans and peas will continue to increase in popularity."
Promotional material on the campaign website (www.tastesofsummer.co.uk) will include a downloadable recipe collection of simple salads, dips and dishes for picnics, barbecues, parties and informal dining, as well as an 'academy' which offers a step-by-step guide on how best to store, pod and slice the vegetables.
"Looking at the summers of yesteryear, people enjoyed good times even though money was often tight," Ms Rees added. "The current economic climate is clearly making us all consider what we have to enjoy here in our own country and British Summertime goes hand in hand with eating the finest British home-grown seasonal produce."


text: Before we moved to our new house we did not have this problem with our cat. We have had him for almost a year now and he just started roughly a month ago. He only goes in the basement where the litter box is located. We clean it every day so its not lack of cleaning it. He goes in all different places too its not just the same spot. We are going to get two new litter boxes so each cat has their own because maybe that is the problem. If he doesn't stop in the next month we will be getting rid of him it kills us because we got him from TAAG and he was very abused it seemed as he was terrified of people and WE just got him cuddly and awesome again and I would hate to see him go but I can't have him crapping everywhere either, its just gross and if my landlord finds out we're in deep trouble and for good reason. We manage to clean it very quickly and the floor is concrete so the smell is not lingering thankfully. Any tips on how to stop this before its too late?

Common Cause president discusses campaign finance reform on UI campus
With the general election around the corner, officials say campaign finance is a growing concern.
Bob Edgar, the president and CEO of Common Cause, a nonpartisan, nonprofit citizens' lobby, gave a lecture Tuesday to University of Iowa students and local residents discussing the need for campaign-finance reform.
"Money has become more corrosive and more important today than when I was in office," Edgar said, a former Pennsylvanian congressman. "We hope every state will consider public financing for state legislative races."
But not everyone is on board with these ideas.
Tim Hagle, a UI political-science associate professor, said Common Cause focuses its attention on campaign-finance issues with the Republican Party.
"They're obviously against certain people contributing in certain ways to campaigns," Hagle said. "In other words, they complain about the way Republicans get their money but don't complain about the way Democrats get their money."
The effects of campaign finance are being seen in the GOP nomination race, Hagle said, because nominees are getting assistance from super political action committees — Super PACs, organizations in the United States that campaign for or against political candidates.
In Iowa's 2nd Congressional District, there's been a major gap between the amount of contributions from PACs candidates and the Democratic incumbent have received.
Rep. David Loebsack, D-Iowa, has received $354,459 from PACs for his 2012 re-election campaign, which is $353,459 more than all the Republican challengers combined.
In the 2010 Citizens United court case, the Supreme Court ruled corporations and unions have the same political speech rights as individuals under the First Amendment.
That decision, officials said, is the reason campaign finance has grown into more of an issue.
"Today, special-interest groups come first with their checkbooks, then with their talking points," Edgar said. "Congressmen and senators aren't as interested in the talking points as they are with the checkbook."
Common Cause is working with other groups toward a Constitutional amendment that would reverse that court's decision.
Their goal is to no longer treat corporations as individuals for purpose of political contributions.
"We hope at the end of the day either through reinterpretation through Citizens United or amendment that we'll love corporations for being corporations, but we'll recognize corporations aren't people — they don't marry, they don't die," Edgar said.
He said his overall message is to restore campaigning to its old roots and to eliminate the influence of money in government, allowing candidates to focus more on big issues like the environment, poverty, and health.
"You need to create elected officials who come committed to those big issues," he said. "I'm afraid the current issues of money in politics is going to disable us from dealing with the issues we have."
Colin Gordon, a UI history professor who teaches the undergraduate class Policy Matters, said there shouldn't be much debate with the idea that we should have more transparency and less corporate influence in campaigns.
"There's an old saying in politics," he said, "'Whatever issues you're interested in, the second issue should be campaign finance.'"

My brother has applied to the property investment fund and he is still waiting for his turn on the list. Is it permissible for him to give his turn to me, if I give him a specific amount of money in return for that?.
There is nothing wrong with him giving up his place on the property investment waiting list in return for a sum of money, because he is giving up a financial right, and it is permissible to sell financial rights in return for compensation. But it is essential to have the permission of the bank handling this investment. If the bank gives permission and the two parties agree that one will pay money in order to take the place of the other, then this is permissible and there is nothing wrong with it.
And Allaah knows best.

We're doing some things around the house again; stripping back, trying to get a more simple and clean look. Over the last couple of years, I've found myself tiring of being surrounded by jumble and longing for a bit more simplicity (and, truth be told, I'm a bit fed up with all the fiddly dusting that goes with having lots of things around). We have a lot going on at the moment, and I'd like my home to be somewhere that feels calm and peaceful - as it stands, I often feel like I'm about to be crushed by a tidal wave of 'stuff'. I want more plants, more natural materials and fabrics, with a little vintage and some colour thrown in for good measure - I want everything to look like it belongs together, rather than it looking like it appeared there by accident.
I've been pinning LOADS of plant-based images on Pinterest, and have become slightly obsessed with houseplants and planning for our little patio area. We're going to have plants literally everywhere - stacked up on old shelves (we have plenty, thanks to my skip diving antics last year), in crates, in tins, in tiny pots and huge ceramic planters, both inside and out. Life is always good if you're surrounded by nature!

Chicken Enchiladas Verdes
How to Make It
Heat oven to 400° F. Place the chicken in a medium saucepan, add enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes; transfer to a plate and let cool. When cool enough to handle, shred the chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Place the meat in a large bowl.
Meanwhile, in a blender, puree the salsa, cilantro, and ½ cup of the sour cream until smooth. Transfer to a small saucepan and simmer until slightly thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the remaining ½ cup of sour cream.
Add the corn, 1 cup of the Muenster, ½ cup of the sauce, and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper to the chicken and toss to combine.
Spread 1 cup of the remaining sauce in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Roll up the chicken in the tortillas (about ½ cup each) and place seam-side down in the dish. Top with the remaining sauce and Muenster. Bake until bubbling and beginning to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the rice according to the package directions. Serve with the enchiladas, sour cream, and cilantro.

"This certification shows the leadership and commitment Cone Health Heart and Vascular Center has in providing exceptional cardiovascular service to our patients," says Cone Health Vice President, Heart and Vascular Center and Imaging Services Rich Lundy. "Earning this certification is one way we make sure we meet or exceed recognized standards of caring for atrial fibrillation patients."
Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia. An arrhythmia is an irregular and often rapid heartbeat. Nearly 3 million people in the United States have diagnosed atrial fibrillation, and are at higher risk for stroke and potential death. SCPC's goal is to help facilities better care for atrial fibrillation patients, provide more effective treatments, and to educate patients and healthcare providers to more efficiently care for this disease.
"This certification not only affirms the high-quality program we have at Cone Health, but demonstrates our commitment throughout the organization and into the community," says Cone Health Medical Director of Emergency Services Dr. John Bednar.
Key areas in which a facility must meet the high certification standards include:
In addition to atrial fibrillation, the Cone Health Heart and Vascular Center has earned chest pain and heart failure accreditations from SCPC.

My work is my words and it is rare for me to admit that I need help expressing the depth of my feelings. But given recent events surrounding the vicious attacks on women's health in the Senate, in the House and on the radio airwaves, I have turned to music to help me express why it is so crucial to elect more women who will stand up for our rights and for the respect we deserve. I thank three Oscar-winning song writers for allowing me to play their moving song with iconic images that speak to my heart and I hope to yours.

Race changes that wouldn't bother you

Re: Race changes that wouldn't bother you
Race changes in don't really bother me just because I think that there are far too many great minority actors who can portray characters that aren't drawn to be minority. I will say I'm slightly a Hippocrate as I do get a little bit upset when a minority figure be it a fictional or non-fictional character gets changed to be white (also known as white-washing) and the only reason why it bothers me is because there are so many great minority actors and so few great minority roles and even fewer that aren't a stereotype.
Whenever we see a minority (usually black) actor being offered a role that is known to be white, people cry and act like it changes everything and it doesn't (at least not for most characters) they also act like the reverse never happens although it happens a lot even when the characters aren't fictional.
Characters who shouldn't see a race change (off the top of my head):
Tony Stark
Steve Rogers
Red Skull
Dr. Doom
Prof. X
So basically as long as it fits in with the times and history of the character I don't really care. I will also say that I understand the desire to see the characters on screen look like their comic book counterpart but at this stage in comic to film adaptions just because a character looks the part doesn't mean that they will be portrayed the same way in terms of personality the x-men films have taught me a great deal about that.

Dear Federal Chancellor,
Please find enclosed a letter I sent to the Procurator General's Office and I request you to check to what extent the actions of the Austrian state health officials are consistent with legal provisions.
As you can see from the letter these officials have not only robbed cancer patients of their constitutional right to choose what they think is the best form of treatment for themselves but the state of Austria has also missed out on millions in tax revenue over the course of the years.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Wassil Nowicky

My lover died a century ago,

Wherefore the Gods forbade that I should know

Men pass my grave, and say, "'Twere well to sleep,

How should they know the vigils that I keep,

"The world needs more Canada." So spoke US President Barack Obama in the House of Commons this week, to great applause and agreement. Canada is having its Big Moment on the world stage, cast as the pluralist antidote to the populist anger swelling south of the border and across the pond.
We are the anti-Brexit, the anti-Trump, the lonely flame of liberalism burning in an increasingly angry wilderness. Obama has officially passed the torch to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in the apparent hope that Trudeau will continue his legacy after he departs the White House: invoking the power of government to make things right, to make us all "get along", and to paper over differences with elitist platitudes.
Obama is right: the world does need more Canada, but not for the reasons he invokes. What the world needs is not more political correctness, or more statism, but more places where freedom is such a given that it's taken for granted. Where criticizing the government doesn't land you in jail. Where girls can aspire to the same professional choices as boys. Where gay pride celebrations have become a routine part of summer. Where the rule of law binds both individuals and governments. And where the free movement of goods, services, and people underpins an economy that rewards initiative and entrepreneurship.
Canada is far from perfect, of course. We rightly complain about taxes that are too high and governments that are too intrusive. We decry discrimination and double standards that persist despite our best efforts to stamp them out. And we have had our own, made-in-Canada problems, such as the Quebec separatist movement and our dysfunctional First Nations reserve system.
But we also easily forget how bad it is in other places. How starvation continues to plague sub-Saharan Africa. How human rights are trampled in China and Saudi Arabia. How war destroys lives in Syria. How terrorist attacks strike fear in major cities around the world.
It's also easy to forget that we benefit from a lucky confluence of history and geography. Historically, we were settled by people who clung to Empire instead of taking up arms against it. We did not build our economy on the heinous backbone of slavery. We attracted immigrants seeking a better life, who for the most part left their quarrels in their countries of origin.
Geographically, we are insulated by vast swaths of ocean: Canada has no significant land border that allows refugees or illegal immigrants to mass at our borders. With few and distant exceptions, our one neighbour has sought to cooperate with us rather than conquer us. We have also benefitted, economically and militarily, from its protection: it's far easier to afford government health care when you don't need to spend your GDP defending the free world.
In other words, it's easy for Canada to be nice. We don't face the same threats as America and Europe; we don't have the same responsibilities either. Neither do we have their clout, economically and politically speaking. We are a "middle power" of 35 million people occupying the second-largest nation on earth, blessed with vast natural resources, decent weather and a peaceful neighbour. It would take a lot of mismanagement to mess this situation up.
That does not mean we can afford to be complacent. Freedom is hard won, but easily lost. We also cannot simply preach tolerance to others facing far more intolerant situations: we need to set an example without being smug about it. And we need to remember the foundation on which that example is built: respect for rights and freedoms, both personal and economic, enshrined in our laws by generations of leaders, from John A. MacDonald to Wilfrid Laurier to John Diefenbaker to Lester B. Pearson to Pierre Elliott Trudeau to Brian Mulroney.
That is the legacy and the example of Canada. A country where people are free to achieve their potential in an atmosphere of peace and security. And that is what we should celebrate and cherish this weekend on Canada Day.

Bible 2016: 7 December Daily Bible Reading
Context and Comment:
Today's reading from the New Testament is Third John. It is the shortest book in the New Testament. It contains the simple message that nothing gave John more joy than to see Christians walking in truth and acting faithfully. It encourages Christians to avoid evil and imitate good.
Hosea 6-9
6 "Come, and let us return to Yahweh;
for he has torn us to pieces,
and he will heal us;
he has injured us,
and he will bind up our wounds.
2 After two days he will revive us.
On the third day he will raise us up,
and we will live before him.
3 Let us acknowledge Yahweh.
Let us press on to know Yahweh.
As surely as the sun rises,
Yahweh will appear.
He will come to us like the rain,
like the spring rain that waters the earth."
4 "Ephraim, what shall I do to you?
Judah, what shall I do to you?
For your love is like a morning cloud,
and like the dew that disappears early.
5 Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets;
I killed them with the words of my mouth.
Your judgments are like a flash of lightning.
6 For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice;
and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7 But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant.
They were unfaithful to me, there.
8 Gilead is a city of those who work iniquity;
it is stained with blood.
9 As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man,
so the company of priests murder on the path toward Shechem,
committing shameful crimes.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing.
There is prostitution in Ephraim.
Israel is defiled.
11 "Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you,
when I restore the fortunes of my people.
7 When I would heal Israel,
then the iniquity of Ephraim is uncovered,
also the wickedness of Samaria;
for they commit falsehood,
and the thief enters in,
and the gang of robbers ravages outside.
2 They don't consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness.
Now their own deeds have engulfed them.
They are before my face.
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness,
and the princes with their lies.
4 They are all adulterers.
They are burning like an oven that the baker stops stirring,
from the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
5 On the day of our king, the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine.
He joined his hand with mockers.
6 For they have prepared their heart like an oven,
while they lie in wait.
Their baker sleeps all the night.
In the morning it burns as a flaming fire.
7 They are all hot as an oven,
and devour their judges.
All their kings have fallen.
There is no one among them who calls to me.
8 Ephraim, he mixes himself among the nations.
Ephraim is a pancake not turned over.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength,
and he doesn't realize it.
Indeed, gray hairs are here and there on him,
and he doesn't realize it.
10 The pride of Israel testifies to his face;
yet they haven't returned to Yahweh their God,
nor sought him, for all this.
11 "Ephraim is like an easily deceived dove, without understanding.
They call to Egypt.
They go to Assyria.
12 When they go, I will spread my net on them.
I will bring them down like the birds of the sky.
I will chastise them, as their congregation has heard.
13 Woe to them!
For they have wandered from me.
Destruction to them!
For they have trespassed against me.
Though I would redeem them,
yet they have spoken lies against me.
14 They haven't cried to me with their heart,
but they howl on their beds.
They assemble themselves for grain and new wine.
They turn away from me.
15 Though I have taught and strengthened their arms,
yet they plot evil against me.
16 They return, but not to the Most High.
They are like a faulty bow.
Their princes will fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue.
This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.
8 "Put the trumpet to your lips!
Something like an eagle is over Yahweh's house,
because they have broken my covenant,
and rebelled against my law.
2 They cry to me, 'My God, we Israel acknowledge you!'
3 Israel has cast off that which is good.
The enemy will pursue him.
4 They have set up kings, but not by me.
They have made princes, and I didn't approve.
Of their silver and their gold they have made themselves idols,
that they may be cut off.
5 Let Samaria throw out his calf idol!
My anger burns against them!
How long will it be until they are capable of purity?
6 For this is even from Israel!
The workman made it, and it is no God;
indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
7 For they sow the wind,
and they will reap the whirlwind.
He has no standing grain.
The stalk will yield no head.
If it does yield, strangers will swallow it up.
8 Israel is swallowed up.
Now they are among the nations like a worthless thing.
9 For they have gone up to Assyria,
like a wild donkey wandering alone.
Ephraim has hired lovers for himself.
10 But although they sold themselves among the nations,
I will now gather them;
and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.
11 Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning,
they became for him altars for sinning.
12 I wrote for him the many things of my law;
but they were regarded as a strange thing.
13 As for the sacrifices of my offerings,
they sacrifice flesh and eat it;
But Yahweh doesn't accept them.
Now he will remember their iniquity,
and punish their sins.
They will return to Egypt.
14 For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;
and Judah has multiplied fortified cities;
but I will send a fire on his cities,
and it will devour its fortresses."
9 Don't rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations;
for you were unfaithful to your God.
You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing floor.
2 The threshing floor and the wine press won't feed them,
and the new wine will fail her.
3 They won't dwell in Yahweh's land;
but Ephraim will return to Egypt,
and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 They won't pour out wine offerings to Yahweh,
neither will they be pleasing to him.
Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners;
all who eat of it will be polluted;
for their bread will be for their appetite.
It will not come into Yahweh's house.
5 What will you do in the day of solemn assembly,
and in the day of the feast of Yahweh?
6 For, behold, they have gone away from destruction.
Egypt will gather them up.
Memphis will bury them.
Nettles will possess their pleasant things of silver.
Thorns will be in their tents.
7 The days of visitation have come.
The days of reckoning have come.
Israel will consider the prophet to be a fool,
and the man who is inspired to be insane,
because of the abundance of your sins,
and because your hostility is great.
8 A prophet watches over Ephraim with my God.
A fowler's snare is on all of his paths,
and hostility in the house of his God.
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves,
as in the days of Gibeah.
He will remember their iniquity.
He will punish them for their sins.
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness.
I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at its first season;
but they came to Baal Peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing,
and became abominable like that which they loved.
11 As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird.
There will be no birth, no one with child, and no conception.
12 Though they bring up their children,
yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left.
Indeed, woe also to them when I depart from them!
13 I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place;
but Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer.
14 Give them—Yahweh what will you give?
Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
15 "All their wickedness is in Gilgal;
for there I hated them.
Because of the wickedness of their deeds I will drive them out of my house!
I will love them no more.
All their princes are rebels.
16 Ephraim is struck.
Their root has dried up.
They will bear no fruit.
Even though they give birth, yet I will kill the beloved ones of their womb."
17 My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him;
and they will be wanderers among the nations.
3 John
1 The elder to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in truth.
2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers. 3 For I rejoiced greatly, when brothers came and testified about your truth, even as you walk in truth. 4 I have no greater joy than this, to hear about my children walking in truth.
5 Beloved, you do a faithful work in whatever you accomplish for those who are brothers and strangers. 6 They have testified about your love before the assembly. You will do well to send them forward on their journey in a way worthy of God, 7 because for the sake of the Name they went out, taking nothing from the Gentiles. 8 We therefore ought to receive such, that we may be fellow workers for the truth.
9 I wrote to the assembly, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, doesn't accept what we say. 10 Therefore if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, neither does he himself receive the brothers, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly. 11 Beloved, don't imitate that which is evil, but that which is good. He who does good is of God. He who does evil hasn't seen God. 12 Demetrius has the testimony of all, and of the truth itself; yes, we also testify, and you know that our testimony is true.
13 I had many things to write to you, but I am unwilling to write to you with ink and pen; 14 but I hope to see you soon, and we will speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.
Psalm 126
A Song of Ascents.
126 When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion,
we were like those who dream.
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
and our tongue with singing.
Then they said among the nations,
"Yahweh has done great things for them."
3 Yahweh has done great things for us,
and we are glad.
4 Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh,
like the streams in the Negev.
5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing,
will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
Proverbs 29:12-14
12 If a ruler listens to lies,
all of his officials are wicked.
13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common:
Yahweh gives sight to the eyes of both.
14 The king who fairly judges the poor,
his throne shall be established forever.

Distribution logistics play a valuable role in any warehouse distribution system. Every warehouse is unique, and thus has its own unique distribution logistics. It can be something as simple as the number of floors or something as complex as the computer system used. But whatever causes them to be unique, distribution logistics must be taken into account when designing any service which utilizes warehouse distribution. Click over here Warehouse logistics
It has been said that a retail business is only as good as its channel of distribution. It could be equally stated that distribution logistics are the current that makes that channel flow. Many managers make the mistake of creating a "one size fits all" approach to warehouse distribution. They believe that all warehouses should operate in essentially the same manner, and the way to achieve this uniformity is through uniform distribution logistics. Nothing could be further from the truth. There are fundamental reasons for this.
Let us look at a simple example. Say a firm has one warehouse which operates with two shifts for packers and shippers. The same firm also uses two other warehouses which have three shifts. Is it logical to simply put a third shift on the first warehouse so all the distribution logistics can conform? Of course not. There may be very good reasons that the first warehouse only has two shifts; and merely creating uniform distribution logistics for this warehouse may create more problems than it solves.
In addition, output rates are often seen as a sign of the success of the distribution logistic in any warehouse distribution scheme. However, again, even output rates only tell part of the story. You need to examine the full nature of each warehouse's distribution logistics to come to a determination of the logistical scheme which most suits that particular warehouse.
Distribution logistics in any warehouse distribution system should be viewed in much the same way individual workers are viewed. Some workers can work double shifts, but can only do this for a certain period of time — before needing to take personal days. Others work better sticking to one shift, but rarely take personal or sick days.
Warehouse logistics deals with a warehouse's physical distribution. Simply put, logistics centre around the way warehouses are organized. A number of companies provide warehousing and delivery services. Those looking to fulfill storage and delivery needs for their businesses would come across a number of warehouses in their respective areas. For instance, you could approach a warehouse and logistics provider in Las Vegas for outsourcing cross docking and supply needs.
Given that systematic warehousing need ample investment, most small or medium-sized companies prefer opting for contracted warehouses. Apart from the small sized companies, a handful others seek value-based warehousing solutions. Such companies could opt for contract warehouses as well.
Differences between contract and public warehousing- The prime difference between both lies in the risk absorption by owners of products covered under contract warehousing. Leasing parties commit to payment of charges despite whether the space is used or not. With such a commitment, the risk for the security of the goods is shared between warehousing providers and the owners. This automatically leads to lesser costs than those arising from public warehousing. Contract warehouse logistics or anywhere else, benefits business that have isolated production centers. Moreover, contract warehousing minimizes liability of the business house for products outsourced for cross docking or storage.
Warehouses are believed to be the crux for a business's supply chain management. Business owners need to stay aware of trends in warehousing to find the best provider. Since the factor of logistics is a critical and crucial component for effective supply chain management, it is essential for all businesses to remain abreast of minor details.
Why should you stay aware of trends in warehouse logistics? Paying for services of a warehouse could provide a safe place for storing raw materials, finished and industrial products while helping business owners deal with short lead times. Staying aware of the varied rates and trends for the warehousing providers help you make a better choice. The warehousing option can be of great help to companies since it plays an important role in making the customer services more valuable, dynamic and competitive.
Soon in the future a truck driver will be instructed as to what loading bay to back up to at a robotic warehouse. Once he is docked the door will automatically open and robotic forklifts will open the Truck Trailer Door and load the truck. Each piece of cargo or palette will be weighed and added to the total. Each piece of cargo will be recorded as having left the warehouse by reading the RFID Tags on the containers. All this information will be uploaded in real-time during the process in case it is interrupted. Although all the robotic systems will have power back-ups to complete their current task much like some surge protectors store energy just in case.
The robotic loaders will then lower the door on the trailer or truck and lock it with an RFID Tagged plastic fastener and a digital picture will be taken and stored in case there's a problem or the seal is broken in route. The door to the warehouse will then be closed and the truck driver will be signaled that he can depart and deliver his load.
Does all this sound to science fiction for you? It really shouldn't because this is the direction that the engineers and researchers are working towards and you can expect all this within 10 years. Additionally in 10 to 15 years after that the trucks will all drive themselves and the entire logistical supply chain will run robotically and autonomously. Even with the labor unions and regulations, which might hold up these advancements in technology surely this will come to pass within 30 to 40 years either way, as it is inevitable and Resistance is Futile.
In fact artificially intelligent CEOs will run companies and the corporation's digital nervous system will predict its needs and plan in advance 20 chess moves ahead to prevent scarcity of products and this is more than just-in-time logistics on steroids, as the system will be self healing, re-routing and hyper-sensitive to anomalies which might jeopardize its mission to serve mankind's societies, civilizations and shareholder's of the corporation it works for. This does not mean there will not be challenges such as "Murphy's Law" just that its goal is to be efficient.

Tenor Carlo Bergonzi, at age 75, will sing his first Otello from Verdi's penultimate opera in a concert performance with the Opera Orchestra of New York on May 3.
Bergonzi, a major star of the world's opera houses for several decades, last sang in the United States at a Puccini Foundation recital in New York in the spring. His fourth encore at that performance was Otello's final scene.
"He came to us and said he was ready," said Alix Barthelmes, general manager of OONY, the company that produced the tenor's American farewell recital in 1994 and his second farewell recital in 1996.
The tenor from Bussetto, Italy, made his opera debut as a baritone in "The Barber of Seville," in 1948, and a second debut, as a tenor, in the title role from "Andrea Chenier" in 1951. Later, he became a leading exponent of Verdi's work.
Other casting for the opera will be announced in September.

Bargain blunders: when being cheap just doesn't payPosted: Updated:
PHOENIX -- Who doesn't want to save a buck these days? But sometimes being cheap just doesn't pay off. So there are some bargain blunders you should watch out for:
The first is buying in bulk. It doesn't make sense to buy a ton of perishable food you'll end up throwing out. So be careful on those trips to the warehouse club.
The second is filling up far away. Going the extra mile when you fill up doesn't always make sense. Sometimes it will cost you more in the gas you burn to fill up farther away than spending a little more in your own neighborhood.
Next: cheap shoes.You may think you're saving a bundle. But if your cheap shoes fall apart fast and are uncomfortable, you'll wish you had paid a little more for good quality.
DIY projects can also be a bargain blunder. You may enjoy do-it-yourself projects at home. But if it's something beyond your expertise, it could turn into a disaster, and may be worth your time and money to hire someone who knows what they're doing.
Finally, don't skimp on safety. Don't cut corners on fire alarms, smoke detectors and things like child car safety seats. After all, the people you're trying to protect are priceless.

Transform your living room into an escape room for game night!
Escape Room games place players in a 'locked room' which they try to escape from. To succeed at this challenge they'll need to find clues, solve mysteries, and have a lot of fun!
Usually these escape rooms are elaborate adventure experiences, run as a professional business, but you can design your own to play at home. It's great for chilling with friends, family or your soulmate.
If hacking together a bunch of puzzles isn't your thing just grab this adults game or this kids party escape kit.
They contain the complete clues, puzzles and setup guide for a full game. You'll need about 30 mins to prep, including printing the photos but is a super unique night in.
Once you've printed the kit, you can see what parts (if any) you want to customize. For example, swapping out one of the puzzles with a combination padlock or adding whole new sections. If you enjoy crafting puzzles, then you'll love this part.
But if you're anything like me you're probably only planning this 2 hours ahead so you can always just run it as is. It's still a lot of fun as you get to role play as characters, have some laughs, and cheat on the answers if you're stuck ;)
If you love crafting puzzles then you might prefer creating a full DIY escape room. You'll need around 10 hours to plan & prep one of these but it's totally fun.
Don't worry – it doesn't have to cost big $$ like the pros. Here're a few puzzles you can easily make using props from around your home or a quick trip to the shops.
Note: If you're after a more detailed guide check out my Blueprint for creating your 1st escape room.
If you're going to DIY an escape game including a lock or combination puzzle is a must. There're heaps of cheap ways of designing one of these:
All of these require your players to use some imagination but you're doing this to have fun with mates – not run a business. If you're concerned about it not feeling authentic enough just put a bit of effort into a great theme and story. E.g. grab some props from a thrift shop, add mood lighting with some candles, or jam some mojo in using a custom Spotify playlist etc…
Group games, that get everyone involved, add a ton of laughs to your escape room. Try these:
Basically every escape room on the planet uses ciphers. They're fun, cheap to make, and add a lot of gameplay time as players try to solve them.
The only issue is making the too hard. Remember, you're designing a fun game – not math class. Here're some easy ciphers that are actually doable in a 60 min DIY game at home:

Oregon Research Institute gets new home
EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — The Oregon Research Institute in Eugene has settled into a new headquarters after a decade-long quest.
The nonprofit behavioral research firm and its roughly 200 employees have moved into a $17 million, four-story steel, concrete and glass building at Riverfront Research Park, the Register-Guard reported.
"Finding a new home has been a long and sometimes difficult process, and we've faced years of uncertainty regarding the cost and physical location of our new headquarters," said ORI Administrative Director Byron Glidden. "It is a relief to finally have achieved our goal."
The institute looked into several properties before choosing the Riverfront Research Park five years ago. But the firm and its developer, Dallas, Texas-based Trammel Crow, became embroiled in a land-use dispute with University of Oregon faculty, students and activists over the proposed development site, near the Eugene Water and Electric Board property and the Willamette River.
The developer agreed in 2011 to use the present site between two existing buildings farther from the river. The office was constructed in the past year.
The institute, founded in Eugene 53 years ago, conducts behavioral studies funded mainly by the federal National Institutes of Health. ORI's research staff investigates issues, including depression, behavior problems among children, smoking and drug cessation and healthy lifestyles.
The institute leases a little more than 59,000 square feet. About 10,000 square feet is leased to the Educational Policy Improvement Center, a UO College of Education spinoff.
"ORI really wanted a new home to persuade other researchers to come and do work with us," facilities manager Dan Hoechlin told the newspaper.

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 21 April 2011 — Consumer sentiment toward retail banks appears to have reversed its historical downward slide, increasing in 2011 for the first time since 2007, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2011 U.S. Retail Banking Satisfaction StudySM released today.
The study, now in its sixth year, finds that retail banking customer satisfaction has improved by four index points from 2010 to an average of 752 (on a 1,000 point scale) in 2011. Satisfaction with most factors of the retail banking experience—account information; facility; problem resolution; and product offerings—has improved from 2010, while satisfaction with account activities has remained stable. In particular, satisfaction with in-person branch interaction, product offerings and account information have all improved significantly. In addition, customer perceptions regarding their bank's brand reputation and image have improved in 2011 for the first time since 2008.
Satisfaction with fees, however, has decreased considerably from 2010, even though the proportion of customers who report they were charged fees by their bank has declined from 53 percent in 2010 to 43 percent in 2011. The primary driver of the decline in fee satisfaction has been changes in how fees are assessed, with 18 percent of customers in 2011 saying their fee structure had changed during the past 12 months, compared with 16 percent in 2010. When fee structures are changed, overall satisfaction decreases by an average of 84 index points.
"While there has been a concerted effort made by the banking industry to get back to basics and provide customers with a satisfying retail bank experience overall, the well-publicized attempts by banks to recoup lost revenue due to Reg E debit card revisions by dropping free checking and repricing accounts has clearly had a negative effect," said Michael Beird, director of banking services at J.D. Power and Associates. "The good news for consumers, and the challenge for the industry, is that banks are being forced to clearly define the value they're providing for the prices they're charging."
According to Beird, charging fees and delivering high levels of satisfaction are not mutually exclusive. Customers who pay fees and also express high levels of satisfaction are more likely to report having the following positive experiences: receiving a thorough needs assessment when opening an account that ensures they are using the right product; engaging in discussion of fees upfront; experiencing better personal interactions with branch and call center staff; having fewer problems; and receiving more effective resolution when problems do occur. An additional driver of improved satisfaction with fees is providing customers with a full menu of products that have tangible value, such as debit cards tied to rewards programs, free online banking and automatic overdraft protection.
"Being charged a fee does not necessarily have to result in dissatisfaction," said Beird. "Customers who completely understand their bank's fee structure and value the products and services they receive tend to have higher levels of overall satisfaction, despite paying fees."
While smaller banks continue to outperform their larger counterparts, a number of large banks have performed well in 2011.1 According to Beird, big banks have exhibited strong performance this year in the areas of service that customers value heavily. Enhancing in-person interaction with increased employee courtesy and knowledge, improving the overall experience of branches and reducing problems that customers experience are all areas in which large banks have traditionally lagged their smaller peers.
The study also finds that mobile applications represent one of the fastest-growing transaction channels available to banking customers, and while adoption remains sporadic, generational differences have clearly emerged:
- In 2011, 23 percent of Generation X and Y customers (those born after 1964) indicate they use mobile banking, up from just 11 percent in 2010.
- Just 9 percent of customers born before 1965 indicate that they use mobile banking applications.
"Generation X and Y customers embrace opportunities to perform banking activities at their convenience, unrestricted by traditional banking hours," said Beird.
The study also finds the following trends relating to social media, which also has emerged as a new and powerful communication outlet when customers have a question, comment or complaint:
- Seventy-five percent of Generation X customers and 87 percent of Generation Y customers indicate they use social media applications. More than one-half customers born before 1965 also report using social media.
- One in eight customers who indicate they use social media say that they have used it to contact their bank for service-related issues. However, only 20 percent of these customers report receiving a response from their bank.
"Banks are just now beginning to understand the risks of ignoring this powerful communication channel," said Beird. "Among customers who post customer service inquiries on sites such as Facebook or Twitter and receive a reply, 47 percent say they would definitely reuse the bank for future products and services. This drops to just 27 percent if the bank provides no response."
According to Beird, there are a number of key practices and characteristics common to the highest-performing banks. Customers seeking a new banking relationship should look for the following when shopping for a new bank:
- Products and services that fit the customer's personal lifestyle, including online and mobile tools
- Branch facilities that are clean, with good lighting and hours that fit the customer's needs
- Branch staff that are courteous, knowledgeable and friendly
- Fees and service charges that are communicated clearly, consistently and in simple terms
- Recommendations from friends, family and neighbors who already use a particular bank

UFC fighter Jon Fitch's diet
Category : Uncategorized
Jon Fitch is the #2 welterweight MMA fighter in the world in pretty much everyone's book. (Georges St-Pierre, the consensus #1, is the only fighter to defeat Fitch in the UFC.) He's known for a grinding fighting style, overpowering and outworking his opponents. Here's a video he recently released showing what he eats in a typical day.
Guess what? It's all vegan.
As Fitch says: "Nutrition from the right foods make up about 90% of our total health. So let food be your medicine and medicine be your food."
On Saturday, Fitch fights former lightweight & welterweight champion BJ Penn at UFC 127.
Update: I just came across this post by Fitch himself over at MMA Fighting, where he explains what made him move towards veganism (The China Study played a big role). He also talks about things like strength and the protein myth. Have a look.

Synopsis: When his mother dies and he discovers the man he believed was his father is not, sixteen year old Chris is haunted by a mysterious apparition that forces him to question his pampered existence and embark upon a quest to find himself. Hoping she will "make a man of him", he seeks sanctuary in the home of Magda, a middle aged waitress with a penchant for sex, only to discover she lives with her father, a cigarette smoking, beer swilling immigrant.
Chris hates his shabby new surroundings at the end of the street and the shabby old man at the end of his life who spends his days listening to old blues records and making Chris fetch him fresh cans of beer. But, when the old man tells tales of Communism, torture, escape and the mysterious medallion he wears, Chris learns that, like the old man's skipping records, history repeats itself and the roles we play have been played many times before.
Review: How can you look at your life the same when you find out the man you grew up thinking is your father really isn't? Once Chris' mother dies, he takes off to 'find himself' – to look deep inside himself and discover who he really is and what he's meant for. Along the way he meets Magda and her father, who both end up teaching him some important life lessons. All along, Chris still fights within himself to decide if he should follow the future his adoptive father sees for him or to strike out on his own for good and travel the world as he finds out more about himself.
Thought-provoking and absorbing, The Vagabond King will strike a chord within your heart and mind. Blending mythology, religion, and music with the harsh light of reality brings us something unique and creative. Mr. Conway has written a soulful and soul-searching novel of a young man's coming of age.

LCS 2 completes acceptance trials
After completing builder's trials last month, the future USS Independence (LCS 2) has now successfully completed acceptance trials, completing a series of graded in-port and underway demonstrations for the Navy's Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV).
Acceptance Trials are the first opportunity for INSURV to test the ship and its systems.
During two days underway, the Austal USA built ship completed demonstrations of the combat systems suite, steering, anchoring and propulsion. The ship achieved a top speed of almost 45 knots during the full power demonstration.
"Independence performed extremely well during trials," said Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Program Manager Rear Adm. James Murdoch. "LCS 2 conducted two outstanding days at sea. We look forward to delivering this critical asset to the fleet."
The ship was presented to INSURV with high levels of completion in production and test. The official results of the trials, including the type and number of trial cards, are currently being reviewed by the Navy.
Members of the LCS 2 pre-commissioning unit were on board Independence during trials to see how their future ship will perform.
Acceptance trials are the last significant milestone before delivery of the ship to the Navy. Ship delivery is expected to occur next month, with the ship's commissioning set for Jan. 16 in Mobile, Ala.
