He told the Telegraph: We responded immediately, repairing the damage from the Shrek virus and putting every new member back into the rating module for a legitimate and democratic vote.The result is that we have lost over 30,000 recent members.What's non-negotiable, though, is that you have to offer something of value to attract a mate (or date!) and it must be equal to that which you are seeking.Lynn told INSIDE EDITION, "When I got rejected from the site I was kind of in shock, honestly."She submitted a photo three years ago and when she was rejected she decided to take action."No, no, this is not going to happen.I'm going to change myself and I'm going to make sure I get accepted," she said.But we had to ask her, doesn't this all sound a bit superficial?
A dating website called Beautiful ruled she wasn't beautiful enough to join.But what drives me nuts is that people keep telling me I've got no chance of finding love with someone who is hot or hotter than me. If you're not perfect in looks, you don't deserve anything hot?

Probably worth reminding folks that the next two events are back to back, the 28th at Carmel high school and then the 8th at Brownsburg.
The Brownsburg event is set up officially. We have been told that we will have the movable bulkheads sent to one end or the other so we can use the entire pool. That was a conversation with the Aquatics Director, so it should be the case when we get there. I will call her a few days prior to be "reminder oriented" as my wife calls it. :)

Any chance you could add the mini boats to the race schedule? I think there's enough of them.

I watched some of your other vids on youtube. Really does look like fun. My son has been bugging me to try to arrange this for a couple years. Thinking about sending links to your videos to my local Aquatic center.
Have a couple questions though.
Does anyone give you grief about shaft grease? Do they want any kind of insurance?
I think if we did it here it would have to be separate from my current club. I just think it's such a cool idea.

Dan – I think you're talking about the micro boats the kids were playing with? Just like I said last time, we will try to fit it in, I agree there are enough people and boats to have a race, but 4 events (offshore, mini's, kids, Micro's) in 30 mins will be tough. We will try, but understand we share the pool and everyone wants to get their "fix". In March when we have the full pool, I think we could run the Micro's at one end at any time, this is certainly something for us to think about and run by the CD.
Thank you, we try to keep the focus on fun and enjoyment for all.
We have had no issues around grease, I do not know of any member that gets grease/oil happy though to cause an issue. We all appreciate the pool so we are normally on our best behavior. Thus far we have had no BP crisis at the pool LOL.
The pool folks (both pools we use) require proof of insurance once a pool reservation is made.
It's great fun, and its warm in the pool, the pool life guard is on hand for retrieval of parts, boats, or anything that sinks. We make sure to tip them well. The pool walls though are not forgiving, if a driver makes a mistake it's normally bad news, so we make sure to remind everyone at every event, don't run if you're going to get upset if an accident happens. But again the grin factor trump's the risk factor for us.
Reminder next weekend and the weekend after, back to back rounds of RC boating fun. Come on out and have some fun.....
See you Saturday? Is there anyone interested in a Revolt?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I will be there Saturday. I'm sure someone will be interested, You might post it on our FB page or put sign on it at the pool.
Are you guys coming to the full size pool event the following Sunday also?
I can't make it the following weekend. Will be out of town. Pretty bummed to miss the full pool.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yeah, it'll be game on in the full pool, we could have really duked it out.
How's about the summer series racing, are you guys planning on coming out to any of those?
Our primary focus is gas racing. We started out in electric. We have a full schedule this summer including the gas nats in New York. It doesn't look like we can make any of your summer races.

I'm very excited that the Tumblr gang is expanding their NYFW coverage this season to include beauty, hair, shoes & accessories. Please take the time to email Rich (email@example.com) to nominate yourself or a beauty tumblr you love, because I'm tired of clicking on the "beauty" tag in Tumblr and seeing X-rated photos. (The human body is beautiful and all, but we can do better).
With NYFW less than 8 weeks away, we're looking to send some of the most creative people from our community to cover fashion week on our behalf.
Last February, we were amazed at the incredible coverage from the 24 Tumblr bloggers at fashion week and I can't wait to see what happens in September. This time around, in particular, we're looking to include 4 bloggers to specifically cover beauty, hair, shoes & accessories.
If you'd like to recommend someone (or yourself!) for one of those 4 categories, let me know! Send me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com with a link to the blog, the category of choice and why you think they'd be a great fit. Can't wait to hear from you guys!
**Please note that to attend NYFW, you must be available to be in NYC for the dates of 9/7-9/16.

BCS Handbook - Updated 2018
These are the fine print guidelines we needed to layout to operate as a non-profit. As a school, we do our best to let God's word be our guide in making big decisions and treating everyone with love and compassion.
1. Once at school, students will not be permitted to leave the school grounds without prior consent of parents or teachers.
Building Foundations through His Love.
To incorporate Christ and Community into Education. These 3 factors will be the focus of BCS: Christ, Community, Education.
One of the greatest gifts that we can give our children is a Christ-centered education. We simply need to allow God to be a part of our lives and He will. BCS will focus on the importance of building a relationship with God to help our children through and enjoy their lives to the fullest. Bradley Christian School will be completely interdenominational in nature. The religious classes taught will consist of the basic principles of Christianity with no preference given to any denomination.
BCS also sees value in Community. The importance of children growing together in a Community and helping that Community grow and flourish along with taking care of their surroundings and knowing about their roots and where they live.
Education. A child's education should not be taken lightly. BCS will strive to provide an outstanding educational foundation. The smaller classes and dedicated teachers and volunteers provides BCS the opportunity to have a relationship with EVERY student.
BCS currently covers Pre-K through 12th grade and is classified by the State of South Dakota as an alternative education system (Homeschool). We are subject to the requirements established for such education systems and fully follow them. BCS has set a high standard for the school in it's conduct and curriculum.
Curriculum: All In One Home School - http://allinonehomeschool.com, Genesis Curriculum, The Bible, Piano Lessons (music, guitar), Interactive Art and Problem Solving Projects, What's In The Bible with Buck Denver, Is Genesis History
Testing: State testing takes place in grades 4, 8, and 11.
School Lunches: School lunches will not be provided unless notified otherwise.
Application for Admission
BCS will follow this procedure in considering the enrollment process:
1. Applications for enrollment including BCS Application (per family), state exempt form and school records from previous school, and other pertinent information should be given to the executive director by the registration date of August 1st.
2. Students are required to participate in all required classes, including but not limited to religion classes.
3. No student will be allowed to promote non-Christian religious views.
4. The status of every student may be subject to review by the School Board.
5. The School Board reserves the right to suspend or terminate a student's enrollment if it is deemed by the School Board to in the best interest of the student, teachers, school, or the other students.
Immunization Requirements-
As and alternative-education system/homeschool, we do not require proof of immunization. We feel it is up to the parent(s)/guardian(s) to decide whether or not they immunize their children.
As and alternative-education system/homeschool, we do not require proof of immunization. We feel it is up to the parent(s)/guardian(s) to decide whether or not they immunize their children.
Since the origination of BCS, our mission has drawn us down a slightly different path as more of a mission than a business. Tuition is not required. God has and continues to provide for BCS in so many ways and if you feel BCS is a good fit for your family, please contact us.
Some families do want to pay tuition, if that is the case, here is a guideline or you can simply make a donation - but please don't feel obligated. Tuition: $1125/year or $140/month for 8 months.
Many families also like to contribute to the school by providing meals or donating time - which is welcomed.

Students must be 4 years old for Pre-K and 5 years old for Kindergarten by June 1st of the
upcoming school year to enroll at BCS. (Please contact us directly if you have a concern about the cutoff or would like to be considered for an exemption.)

5. When a student is absent or late a note, phone call, or personal visit form a parent is required.
6. Each student will be expected to do his or her part in daily cleaning duties in the classroom.
7. Children should come to school well groomed and properly dressed. This includes seasonal considerations as well... ie- winter boots, stocking cap, gloves/mittens in winter. Immodest dress is not appropriate. Likewise, no child will be allowed to promote other religious views. Faculty and Board retains the right to request corrective action.
8. Visitors are welcome to attend during the school day.
9. Parent-Teacher Conferences will be scheduled through out the year. Either parents or teachers may schedule additional conferences at any time.
9. Parent-Teacher Conferences will be scheduled through out the year. Either parents or teachers may schedule additional conferences at any time.
10. Progress or report cards will be communicated with parents.
11. Parents are expected to pick up their children at the end of the school day, which is 2:30, unless other arrangements have been made between both the parents and teachers.
God's word teaches that children are to honor and obey those whom he has placed over them.
We believe whenever a child is disobedient, rebellious or disrespectful he should be rebuked and in some instances punished. -We believe, above all, about treating people with love and compassion and will do our best to stand by Jesus' example of love, in every circumstance.
We believe whenever a child is disobedient, rebellious or disrespectful he should be rebuked and in some instances punished. -We believe, above all, about treating people with love and compassion and will do our best to stand by Jesus' example of love, in every circumstance.
If a child's conduct is such that his continued attendance would do harm to the general welfare of the school, the school board may expel that child.
Attendance- General Statement of Policy
POLICY FOR PRE-K through 12th grade
More than 5 absences per semester (or >10 per school year) will result in review by the school board.
POLICY FOR PRE-K through 12th grade
More than 5 absences per semester (or >10 per school year) will result in review by the school board.
Absences: Students who miss school for any reason will need to complete all of the assignments that were given the day of their absence.
A. Recognizing the strong relationship between regular attendance for each class and high academic achievement, BCS establishes the following attendance policy. This policy will promote this relationship and hold students accountable for regular attendance. It is essential that students and their families take responsibility for knowing and following this Attendance Policy.
B. School is preparation for future life. It is important that habits of regular attendance be developed. Regular attendance establishes a pattern of responsibility and commitment that will serve students throughout their lives, including post-high school education and the workplace.
C. Consistent school attendance has a high positive correlation to academic success and school completion. A student's contribution and achievement in class are directly related to attendance.
D. Truancy. Under South Dakota law, children of mandatory school age are required to attend school regularly.
F. Teachers at BCS, along with other appointed officers shall enforce the Attendance Policy with final say in matters to be decided by the appointed school board members by majority vote.
G. This policy sets forth Actions to Rectify Absenteeism, however, nothing in this policy prevents adminstrators from instituting actions to ensure attendance at any time if warranted by the individual circumstances.
Grade Advancement
Grade advancement will be largely based on effort, attitude, and obedience. We understand that we all have different strengths and weaknesses, these differences do not make us better or worse than anyone else. At BCS, we hope to grow a strong foundation of communication (reading, writing, multiple languages), problem solving (math & science), and individual thinking (history, facts, art, music). Letter grades are not easily applied to any of these as we all grow and learn differently. With our low student-teacher ratio and frequent communication with parents on students progress this shouldn't be an issue. The School Board reserves the right to review each student's status in cooperation with the faculty to determine if special action is needed.
If Grading Is Applied in High School...
Assignment Due Dates: All assignments are due the next school day unless the teacher says
otherwise. Any assignment not handed in by 8:30 will be considered late. Any late assignments will result in 0 credit, but will still need to be completed.
otherwise. Any assignment not handed in by 8:30 will be considered late. Any late assignments will result in 0 credit, but will still need to be completed.
Grading Key:
Unit Credits- Requirement and Definition
The unit credit at BCS is based on a student's achieving a certain level of understanding of the subject matter. While our curriculum and class schedule are specific, our main concern is that our students learn what is being taught. Our definition of unit credit varies from the standard definition used by the public school systems where the unit credit is specifically based on a set number of class hours (120 per year per subject equals 1 credit). Our policy can result in our students spending more or fewer class hours than what is experienced in the public school system. Again, our focus is on learning and making sure our students are gaining knowledge. Our students are assessed based on their attained knowledge of each subject matter. We are confident that any students entering the public school system after attending BCS would have a knowledge base required to successfully move to the corresponding grade level.
A Note for Parents
God has given to parents the responsibility of teaching children all the truths of His Holy Word, the Bible. Most important to our children is that they be taught of their Savior Jesus Christ.
At BCS we teach your children about Jesus their Savior and about His will for their lives. We teach these things as they are taught in the Bible. As we teach your children, we pray that God's Word will take hold in their hearts and become an active force in their lives.
Parents are teachers. By your words and your actions, you teach your children what is important to you. We pray that you, the parents of our school children, will give Christ and his Word a central place in everyday family life. A commitment to BCS encompasses both student and parent(s).
Nondiscrimination Policy
Bradley Christian School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. BCS does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration, in its educational policies, admissions policies, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
We recognize that BCS is not equipped to meet the needs of every child with learning or behavioral needs. Therefore, not all students who apply for admission will be accepted. The final decision in this matter will rest with the leadership team of Bradley Christian School.
BCS Board
The board will be made up of 5-7 members who feel strongly about the success and mission of BCS: President, Secretary/Treasurer, and 3-5 General Board Members. To Conduct Business the board must have a majority vote of 3 out of 5. The job of the board is to listen to the needs and concerns of the executive director and teachers to make sure BCS is operating as smoothly as possible and meeting the needs of the students and faculty.
Terms: 5 year terms on all positions except the executive director. Any person can leave their position with 3 months notice to the board. Executive Director is for life or until they step down or they can be voted off by a unanimous decision of all other board members. All board members subject to removal by unanimous vote.

Q: How can you hear the voice of God, or can you? Is it just reading the Bible? What if you can't seem to hear the voice of God reading the Bible?
There are many ways in which God chooses to speak to His people. Consider the life of King David. David spoke audibly with God (2 Samuel 2:1). David experienced signs in his circumstances from God (1 Samuel 24). David also heard God's voice through the voice of another person such as Samuel or Nathan (1 Samuel 16; 2 Samuel 12). David also learned God's voice through reading the scriptures (Psalm 18). The question then is how did David discern these were God's voice?
This is especially relevant because we also have examples of these same conduits being misused and not coming from God's voice. There are times when people are deceived in their thoughts and heads by demons or the Devil (John 8:44, 1 Kings 18). There are also times when our circumstances may point to something that is not really from God (1 Samuel 15). There are also times when people will claim to be speaking for God when really they are not (1 Kings 13, Deuteronomy 13). There are also people who will twist Scripture to fit their own ideas (2 Peter 3:14-18). So what are we to do?
The question then in light of all this ambiguity is where can we find clarity? And if you think about it, these four ways that God speaks can be ranked in terms of clarity. God's audible voice or inner voice in our heads (which many think would be the most clear) is actually the least clear because there is no way to confirm it. Signs are then a little bit more clear because other people can see it and evaluate it, but they are also fleeting and their meanings ambiguous. Others speaking to you is clearer because it is actual words, but even then it may be misconstrued and you don't have full trust in that person's authenticity. The last which is the Scripture is the most clear because not only can other people read the same words that you are reading, but they are the same words from when they were first written to now and they will be the same words in the future.
Therefore, we must allow the more clear ways that God speaks to define the less clear ways. How can you be certain that someone is speaking for God, if you are not certain of what the voice of the Scriptures is? In Acts 17, the Bereans weighed Paul's message against the Scriptures because while Paul could be suspect, the Scriptures were certain. Then as we understand God's Word and God's messages from others, we can become more certain of when we see signs or when the Spirit speaks to us (whether inner or outer voice). We cannot go about it in the reverse order. Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will remind us of what He has said (John 14:26), not teach us new things. If you have not learned the voice of God from the Bible, then the Holy Spirit has less vocabulary and options in what He can remind you of.
So we arrive at the second question: How do we hear God's voice through the Scriptures? The first question in response to that is "what are you listening for?" The reason why many don't hear the voice of God ringing throughout the Scriptures is because they are listening for an audible voice or a personal letter to them. They scan the scriptures for something which will say "Dear _____, this is what I want to say to you in the year 2012 regarding your recent Facebook post." Then they are disappointed when they don't get it and say that they can't hear God's voice.
We must understand that God's voice in the Scriptures is not being spoken directly to us in the audible particular way that we often think we want. The Bible is full of letters, poems, histories, and prophecies that were given at particular times with particular people in particular places. It just so happens that the primary participant of all of them is God. Therefore while the Bible is not speaking directly to us, it is open directly to us to hear God's voice speaking to others, as it were. In that way, the specifics are not exactly related to us, but the character, being, substance, and purpose of the God who is speaking is the same for us as it was for whoever the particular book was written for. It is as if we are able to stand next to the unchanging God while He talks to someone else. Even though God is directly speaking to someone else, we can get to know God just as well at the original audience. This means that we can learn who God is and how God works. We hear His voice through Scriptures, not in an audible way, but in the way that we learn His character and being.
The second question is then, "how do we know that what we hear and learn from God in the Scriptures is right?" For instance, you read in Deuteronomy 4 and 5 God did not want His people to go into the Promised Land with idols and that in fact God wanted to prosper His people. Our takeaway is that God is a God who cannot be contained and that God is a God who loves and wants to bless His people and to do that He gives them laws to keep them from harmful things. How do I know this is from God? There are three ways that I want to propose:
Does the rest of Scripture support this? Scripture does not contradict itself (if you disagree with this, write an example on the comment card). Therefore we can look at the rest of Scripture and ask "is what God just showed me correct?" Does God seem to be finite anywhere else? Is God containable to what man makes? No. Does God want to bless and prosper His people? Yes. Does God give them rules and boundaries that they might stay in the blessing? Yes. So far so good.
Go to the less clear ways of hearing God's voice. Ask other godly people whether this truth is true. That's one of the reasons God provides the church to begin with. Pray and ask God whether or not these things are true and listen for His answer or lack or refutation. If you're not sure what a particular passage is speaking to you, then ask a teacher or a pastor whom you trust is in a real relationship with God. After all, if someone spoke to your in a different language through a translator, you wouldn't doubt that person's existence. In many ways, teachers and pastors serve as translators until you can learn the language well enough on your own.
Follow it and see. Here is one of the hardest things to do. You learn that God cannot be contained and any idol that you have is an attempt to contain God. You want to know if this is really from God. Do it and find out. If your idol is money, then tithe and on top of that give to the poor and the needy. Then you discover that God can provide for your needs, and on top of that He fills you with a joy that money never gave you. At the end of it, you can look back at what you heard from God and say "yes that was God." One of the many reasons why people don't acknowledge the voice of God is because they do not follow what He says (James 2:19-27).
As you continue to hear and obey God's voice, it becomes clearer and clearer when it is Him who is speaking and when it is not. This clarity is not so much a matter of recognition of tone, pitch, or cadence as it might be with another human being, as it is a matter or recognition of character. We learn to hear the person behind the voice and thus can assert "God would say that". For instance if you heard a voice telling you to burn down your house, you could be confident that that was not in God's character and not something He would say. On the reverse when you hear God's voice convict you of your sin despite your own justifications, you can be fairly confident that voice is God's because that is something that He would talk about. The more we know the living God in the scriptures, the more we can discern that same living God's voice in our every day lives.
It is our great desire for all believers that they would hear God's voice through all the different ways God speaks. However, consider yourself in a situation with another human being. What if you talked to that person, but that person kept question whether you were really speaking to them. And rather than talk back and try to engage in a conversation with you, that other person just spent hours and hours contemplating whether you spoke or not. You would not be able to have a relationship with such an asinine person. We are often that asinine person. We demand that God speak to us, but we are not listening or we are listening for God to speak in the way that we want (when many times we don't even know what we want) while God is yelling at us in the way that we really need.

Did you know the work "Sneaker" was created in 1916 by Keds! That's right, Nike, Reebok etc owe this worldwide terminology to Keds. The iconic brand has been a part of some defining moments in history, making appearances in such shows as Happy Days, Saved by the Bell and movies such as Dirty Dancing (we all remember Jennifer Grey's character, Baby's famous dance scene on the stone stairs and bridge in her white Keds) and Twilight. Keds has even been a part of a few infamous moments in celebrity history, remember a shaved-head Brittney Spears and the umbrella incident? Yep, she was wearing Keds. Today celebs and the mere mortals who love them are still captivated by these comfy and iconic shoes. Designers and brands like Tracy Reese, Alice + Olivia, Madewell, and Steven Alan are just a few that have collaborated with the famous brand. The iconic shoes are available in solids and prints, slip-on and laced up styles.
The Champion has been the go-to Keds style sneaker since its creation. This season, Keds introduces some fun and whimsical prints which give a playfully modern touch to this classic silhouette. Show your love with the Champion Love Print Slip-On, rock the leopard-print flat trend celebs are loving right now with the Champion Animal Print Sneaker. Not a fan of leopard, try zebra with the Champion Zebra Print Laceless Sneaker, or if you just a print that's a bit more girly, be like Elle Fanning and go for the Champion Floral Sneaker.

Iowa State University has created the nation's first cyber security curriculum for the K-12 classroom. We hear a lot about literacy and digital literacy. What about security literacy? The Security Literacy Project is dedicated to providing educators the materials needed to teach security-literacy to grades K – 16. The prime goal of practical computer security literacy is to provide students with the information and processes to secure their digital devices and information. The topics and objectives of the teaching modules are designed specifically to meet this goal.
The primary method for educating students and the general public about cyber security has been through limited awareness campaigns and the construction of top-ten security lists.
Formal computer security education is the key to combating the threats intrinsic to the Information Age. Each day, people are inundated with alerts and pop-ups informing them about patch updates, antivirus signatures, firewall exceptions, suspicious emails, and malware threats but lack the proper education or vocabulary to make value-based decisions regarding the benefits and consequences of taking specific action on these items. This course in practical computer security provides the context and knowledge for students to apply computer security best practices when faced with a novel situation and the ability to be proactive, not reactive, in the face of new threats. It is argued that computer security literacy is not only the next logical step in computer security defense; it is the most important step that, we, as individuals can take. Through this website and project ISU encourages and promotes security literacy.
Two types of materials are available to support various classroom settings and curricular objectives.
- The first set of materials are called Cyber-Toons and are short (1-2 minutes) videos designed to be played in a class to simulate discussion around a topic. The Cyber-Toons can be included into any class and are more targeted at middle schools. An instructors guide, discussion questions, and short assessments are provided with each of the Cyber-Toons.
- The second set of materials are longer modules (5 to 10 minutes) that are also in video format. These are designed to be used in class or in a "flipped" course (where students watch the videos before class). Like the Cyber-Toons instructors can pick modules based on topic to be included in any existing course. A curriculum for a school that wants to teach an entire course on security literacy is also provided. The modules are designed for upper middle school and high school.

Trendy Borders' artistry and selection allows you to match and coordinate with your home's exterior. The color, pattern, outline, and design are all tailored to your individual tastes and needs for a flawless finished look. During the free consultation and estimate, Hector Gonzalez, owner of Trendy Borders N More, will discuss the design options and educate clients about the product, about the design choices, and about the possibilities for beautifying your landscape. Samples and information will be available to peruse. If the best match or desired look is not available from the existing selection, Hector is able to use his extensive experience with this design medium to create a personalized look: "If a homeowner has flagstone or aggregate decking, for example, I can create a custom look to match their existing hardscape." He has developed an eye and skill to suit any taste over his nine years of experience with concrete borders.
Decorative curbing is not simply for flowerbeds and islands. They are perfect for framing a variety of focal areas in your yard. Framing children's play areas or volleyball courts is not only attractive but functional by enclosing sand or other material. Trendy Borders has also installed this decorative edging for other recreational spots including private putting greens and basketball courts. They are the perfect finishing accent for patios or outline your driveways and walkways create a gorgeous line to accent the entryways. In addition, lighting can be recessed into the border to create a gorgeous, subtle glow that elegantly follows every curve and contour. In addition, the commercial applications are endless from neighborhood entrances to a professional look for your business property. No matter the use, decorative concrete edging can define and beautify your existing landscape.
Durable, Functional, Beautiful
The reasons to call upon Trendy Borders for you landscaping needs go far beyond aesthetics. They reduce the maintenance and work. With decorative edging, less time is spent creating clean lines through manual yard work. The borders also isolate trouble areas consisting of gravel or mulch: flower beds remain intact and grass stays out. Concrete borders also eliminate the need to replace traditional edging due to rot or rust, and they won't move or get knocked over.
Best of all, calling Trendy Borders is an investment instead of an expense. The enhanced curb appeal allows you to gain greater enjoyment out of your home while adding value to your property. Decorative borders do not require an extensive overhaul of your yard and space—they install seamlessly into the existing design and plan of your home.
"When I meet with new clients, I simply provide the information and options," said Hector. "There is no need for pushy tactics, because the borders speak for themselves."
We are proud of our work and even more proud of our many many satisfied customers. Call us today at 817-739-2571 for a free quote.

Building materials suppliers criticise plan to raise green energy levy
PSO hike of €104m on electricity will hit jobs and growth, warn cement and concrete firms

A proposed €100 million rise in the State's green energy levy threatens the recovery in construction, building materials suppliers warn.
The Commission for Energy Regulation (CER) wants to increase the public service obligation (PSO) levy on electricity bills by €104 million to €496.5 million from next October to support renewable energy developers and peat-fired power plants.
However, cement and concrete manufacturers, whose businesses face high energy bills, have warned the regulator that such a move could hit jobs and endanger the recovery in construction.
In a submission to the commission, manufacturer Kilsaran International says that over the 12 months from October, the increase would add €43,984 to its energy bills and points out that it cannot recover this from customers.
Kilsaran argues that the recovery in construction has only taken hold in Dublin and remains fragile throughout the rest of the Republic. The company says it is inconceivable that the commission would seek such an increase to the levy.
"Irish electricity prices are among the highest in Europe and the yearly increases in the PSO levy only serve to undermine the cost base and competitiveness of Irish companies, thereby limiting the potential for growth and job creation," Kilsaran says.
Many other companies in the industry submitted versions of the same letter to CER analyst Gráinne Black, pointing at the likely cost of the increase to their businesses and its implications for job creation.
Unsustainable increase
Gerry Farrell, chief executive of the Irish Concrete Federation, states the proposal would result in an overall 143 per cent increase in the levy since 2013/2014, which he argues is unsustainable for any business.
"Irish Concrete Federation urges the CER to recognise the fact that businesses cannot be asked to absorb the extra costs of this levy in a time when recovery is still fragile and businesses are still struggling for survival," he says. His organisation represents 75 companies which employ 4,000 people.
According to the CER, large energy users, which would include cement and concrete producers, most manufacturers and multinationals, will pay €234.2 million of the €496.5 million total.
The charge guarantees the price paid for electricity to wind farms, other renewable energy producers and peat-fired plants. It is renewed for 12 months every October. It is meant to implement Government policy to support green electricity generation.
Wind farm operators are the biggest beneficiaries. The regulator's figures show these businesses would receive €393.5 million of the €496.5 million that will be collected from industries and households over the 12 months from next October.
State companies such as the ESB, Coillte and Bord na Móna are all involved in wind generation. Lobbyists for the sector argue that supporting renewable power cuts energy costs.
The CER's proposal could add €2.37 a month to bills paid by each home in the Republic from next October, irrespective of their supplier, while small businesses would face an increase of €8.06 a month.

Survivor: Scary Similarities Between Now and 1930s
By Kevin Madigan | email@example.com
Holocaust survivor and writer Irving Roth will be the guest speaker at the Yom HaShoah observance at the Marcus Jewish Community Center on April 12. He spoke to the Atlanta Jewish Times from his home in New York.
AJT: Mr. Roth, what is your plan for this event?
Roth: I'll be speaking at the program, obviously talking about the Holocaust itself and also how it relates to the position of the Jews today.
AJT: And what is your view of that position?
Roth: I see many similarities between the 1930s and 2015. Some parts of the world want to eliminate the Jewish people. It's not so different. (Former Iranian President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad spoke a couple of years ago at the United Nations, and the audience applauded when he talked about the destruction of Israel. The world just ignored it. It's true that some parts of the world, including the United States, walked out, which I think is very admirable.
The problem we're facing now is that the state of Israel and the Jewish people have become the pariah of the world, and that's a major problem because one of the things is they refer to Israel as an apartheid state, but the relation with what's going in Israel and what went on South Africa is pure fiction. Yet it's an accepted truth that's been generated by people who hate Israel. That's a major issue. It was picked up, and now it's on everybody's lips.
To quote a fellow by the name of Josh Earnest, who's in the White House someplace (as press secretary), he accuses (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu of undermining the values and democratic ideals that have been important to our democracy and are an important part of what binds the U.S. and Israel together. He says in the democratic election Palestinians were being persecuted, yet their people in parliament are being increased by 30 percent. So what is he talking about? Have we lost our minds? We agree that negotiations with Palestinians are necessary. Join with the Jews and create something positive; fully join the government and let them be an opposition. Look, the reason I believe so many voted for Netanyahu is because fundamentally, even though economics is important, lifestyle is important, I think the people voted for life. And that scares them. It's life and death.
AJT: Netanyahu said during his campaign that there would be no Palestinian state while he is in office, but now he is saying it won't happen under present conditions.
Roth: If you listen to what Netanyahu said, the operative word he said is "today." In 2009 Netanyahu made a speech at Bar Ilan University about creating a two-state solution. But there's been nothing but murder and mayhem and war and rockets. They intend to do what they always intended to do, which is destroy the Jewish state. He specifically said "today." As long as the rhetoric, particularly in Arabic, goes on, as long as we can't do something about Hezbollah, Iran, agree on disarmament, do something about Hamas, what are we doing, committing suicide? But they, with deliberate malice aforethought, misinterpreted what he said. What do you want him to do? Lie down and die? Or move on? There's a disconnect between facts and those things that have been generated by the media.
AJT: You support Netanyahu's position?
Roth: What I do is support his concept of a two-state solution. I fully believe in it. And I believe in my heart of hearts that the Jewish people believe in it too. The problem is they're scared out of their wits because somebody is trying to destroy them and develop nuclear weapons to destroy them, and I think that's what drives it. And this is a big problem.
AJT: What is your take on the current nuclear weapons negotiations with Iran?
Roth: Let me say this. If the United States agrees to everything Iran wants, what it will do at best is postpone the Iranian nuclear program by 11 years. In the lifetime of a nation, that's not exactly an eternity. And this is what bothers me. We're not talking long term. Ten years in my lifetime, of course, is a lot. But in the lifetime of a nation, that's not a hell of a lot. And they seem to ignore that.
AJT: How do you feel about the settlements?
Roth: I don't necessarily agree with settlements as such. But (since boundaries were established) after the 1967 war less than 15 miles from Lod (Ben-Gurion) Airport, there is a hillside where you can put a gun, or two, or three. Easily. So every time you land at the airport, you can get blown up by a missile. That's not a defensible border. So what I'm suggesting is that you put some Jewish people there and trade some other piece of land which is not dangerous. That's what Barack (Obama) suggested. Let's trade because there are certain places we cannot possibly afford, particularly when you're still intending to destroy us. So that makes sense.
AJT: Tell us about your Adopt a Survivor program.
Roth: It tries to make sure that the life of the Holocaust survivor, the testimony, the experience, does not disappear. The way this is conceived is that young people in their 20s, their 30s, their teens, meet a survivor one on one, or three to one survivor, or 10, and listen to the survivor and his life — before, during and after the Holocaust. They effectively become biographers, understand the person, his experience. It dissects the Holocaust, and they are able to speak about it with a level of insight in 30 years. So it's for the grandchildren, so that the individual testimony doesn't disappear.
AJT: What else would you like readers to know?
Roth: I would say that I'm hoping the world community will come to its senses and understand that the Jews are not, as a German newspaper used to have it very finely printed, "the Jews have been our misfortune." The Jews have not been a misfortune, and the Jews and the Jewish state are not a misfortune now. In fact I would say that the Jewish state, the Jewish people, are a very positive force in humanity. And I want to remind you that in September 1938 when Hitler, Chamberlain, Daladier and Mussolini met to sign the Munich Agreement — I remember that vaguely as a child — then Chamberlain stated "peace in our time" as he returned to London. Six months later Germany marched into Czechoslovakia and dismembered it. So much for bullies. We speak of learning from history, but unfortunately I find that's something we do not learn.
AJT: We seem to be making the same mistakes over and over again.
Roth: Yeah. This business of never again … it's again. We can't just say, yeah, let's hope for the best. It's not enough. You have to stand up and say, "Wait a minute, what is really going on?" I think the Middle East is going to become a tinderbox because I certainly don't think Saudi Arabia is going to sit quietly and not acquire a nuclear weapon. I don't think Turkey or Egypt are going to do that either. These are very scary times.
What: Yom HaShoah observance
Where: Besser Holocaust Memorial Garden, March JCC, 5342 Tilly Mill Road, Dunwoody

By that time it is too late. The door was already opened. Standing before them was Blackport Butcher. A serial killer who had been ravaging the city with his brutal crimes. There he stood covered in the blood of the strange woman they had just let in. A bloody bat gripped firmly in his hand. There was no mask like the reports had stated. How would the reports have factual information when there were no survivors or witnesses?
Instead he stood tall, almost seven feet tall. He was a monster of a man, pure muscle it seemed. How nobody had witnessed this shirtless bear of a man murder 13 people is another mystery. Mud was caked on his boots despite no rain in the last two weeks. The frightening part was not his murder attire, his muscle mass or anything else. It was the beady eyes that had no life in them as if this man had died years ago. Despite that they burned with an intensity of Satan.
The Butcher tosses aside the man who opened the cabin door as if he weighed nothing. Slamming the door behind him The Butcher heads straight for the woman. The men attempt to stop him and he only tosses them aside, unconcerned about any damage they can do to him he only focuses on his goal.He lifts the bat to finish the murder he started earlier that night. Instead he's met with a back full of birdshot from a shotgun held by another man.
The butcher abandons the woman for the moment and turns to the man who shot him. The first swing of the bat knocks the gun from his hands before he can fire. Shocked he stood there thinking a silent prayer before meeting his fate. The second swing shattered his ribs and dropped him to the floor. It wasn't long until The Butcher had finished him. Six swings in total.
He turned to the other men who had huddled in a corner, afraid for their lives. 14 swings and they had retired from this life. Turning to the woman The Butcher smiles and opens his arms wide for a hug. The look of terror leaves the woman's face and is replaced with a smile. She rushes forward and kisses The Butcher ignoring his request for a hug. The Blackport Butcher is not a man. The Blackport Butcher is a duo.

We went camping this weekend to Upper Blue Lakes. The boys had camp till 1 p.m., and we had work, so we left later than we wanted. It was about 107 when we were packing the truck. The air conditioner in my car died earlier in the week, so the 106 degree drive home from work on Friday sucked all the energy and joy out of me. I tried to rally, but something about the heat just makes you move so slow and feel so angry at the world. We finally got packed and headed to Nana's to drop off Curly. Poor little fur-dude was not happy about going out in the heat. The road into Blue Lakes is sketchy, very narrow dirt roads with a lake on the other side. I was tense the entire ride to our campsite. We finally arrived around 7 p.m. Friends greeted us with a cool beverage and helped us set up our tent before it got dark. We shared a delicious meal and enjoyed the campfire and amazing stars.
The next morning we prepared for an entire day by the lake. Several families brought kayak's and paddleboards. Our campsites were just a short walk from the lake.
We could walk up, make lunches and walk back down. It was "real camping" at its best. No bathrooms or sinks. Just a pit toilet and a water spout every 150 yards or so. You just had to accept that you were going to get dirty. The lake was our shower and we took several dips. The weather was great, so much better than 106. There was also no wi-fi so the kids and adults played all day without a screen.
On Sunday we packed up and headed back a bit before lunch. On the way down the mountain, Pedar pulled over to help a woman with a flat tire. He taught her teenage son how to change a tire. We finally made it home around 3 p.m., unloaded our camping stuff and began cleaning and preparing for the week ahead.
Only 17 more days till school starts. Have a great week everyone!!

Gladly Beyond by Nichole Van
An ancient curse, fractured at the birth of three brothers. Two strangers helplessly drawn to each other. A love story two hundred years in the making. Claire Raythorn arrives in Florence, Italy, shattered, alone, and anxious to rebuild her life—preferably one without men. But she soon finds herself hunted and haunted— literally—when a mysterious stalker dressed like Mr. Darcy from BBC central casting appears in her photos. And only her photos. Who is this man? And what does his ghostly presence mean? Dante D'Angelo simply wants to safeguard his brothers, despite the family curse that hounds his vision. But then Claire Raythorn walks into his life, untouched somehow by his curse. Soon, everything Dante thought he knew about himself starts to unravel, dragging Claire down with him. Set against the lush backdrop of Florence, Italy—both past and present—Claire and Dante fight for a future together. But, first, they must uncover their shared past . . .
The thing I like about Van's writing is that she builds up the love between hero and heroine in plausible increments. I think that's why I always end up reading her novels in one sitting until the early morning hours; I know that in the NEXT scene the characters are going to finally realize their love. But then you get to the next scene and you simply want more and more. And I mean that in the best possible way.
I've always thought Italian cities are like guys I knew in college: Rome—the hot frat boy I was dying to go out with (and I did, and it was awesome). But, turns out, everyone dated Rome. Naples—Rome's frat house roommate. The guy on no sleep and his tenth can of Red Bull. No one messed with him cause he knew people who knew people . . . catch my drift . . . Venice—the dreamily gorgeous philosophy major. Brilliantly eccentric but exotic enough that no one quite knew what to make of him. Milan—the second-year MBA student who was big on power-ties and power-lunches. Basically, the organized guy who held everyone else together. And then there was Florence. Firenze, to those who knew him. Quiet and unassuming. When we first met, I wondered what all the fuss was about. But Firenze . . . he was a subtle seducer. If I asked, he could talk for hours about art and history. But, generally, Firenze simply listened. Peaceful. Steady. Ready to shoulder my sorrows. Firenze is the guy I never got out of my system.
I hit the ground floor and took two steps toward the large wooden front door. How would the next few weeks play out? Like being a contestant on Survivor? The Great Race? A male voice stopped me. "Just the person I was waiting for." I closed my eyes. Nope. Things were shaping up to be The Bachelorette. Honestly. Pasting on my polite grin, which truthfully was more of a grimace by this point, I turned around. "Mr. D'Angelo." "Dante, please." He stepped out of the shadows at the base of the stairs. A window in the stairwell illuminated half of him. Even that half was huge. Whereas I looked down on Pierce and was eye-level with the Colonel, I had to look up, up at Dante. At five ten myself, it takes a lot to make me feel short. But he somehow managed it. He had to be at least six four and linebacker-wide. Did he play football in high school? His dark, wavy hair had been smoothly slicked back when he arrived earlier. But I had watched it creep forward as the morning went along until a section of it came loose, swinging down to kiss his jaw. My fingers itched to brush it back. Dante was the type of man I had always had a sweet tooth for. Until I learned, oh-so-painfully, how bad for my health they could be.
Love's Shadow by Nichole Van
Branwell D'Angelo . . . Six years ago, I fell in love with Lucy—my brother's girlfriend. Stupid of me, I know, but sometimes the heart doesn't listen to reason. Six years, I've lived on the sidelines. Seeing him love her, be with her, bask in her sunshine . . . I watched her break his heart and then cleaned up the shattered pieces of him she left behind. She's the one woman I can't have but still the only one my soul wants. Now she's back in our lives and needs the unique help only us D'Angelos can give. He's not emotionally strong enough to face her. So he's sending me instead . . . When tragedy strikes Lucy Snow on a visit to Italy, she can't bring herself to call any of the D'Angelo brothers for help. There are consequences for falling in love with your ex-boyfriend's brother. But Lucy desperately needs Branwell's paranormal skills and his gift of Sight. And if seeing him will negate at least three years of therapy? Well, it's a price she is willing to pay. Thrown together in a desperate bid to save an innocent life, Branwell and Lucy struggle against their shared past, only to realize that something even more dangerous is reaching through the weight of time to stalk their every move . . .
Chiara doesn't like Jack. Jack doesn't like Chiara. The story should end there. Except . . . maybe Chiara finds herself daydreaming far too often about Jack. And maybe Jack finds Chiara aggravating in an adorable sorta way. Maybe Jack and Chiara find themselves falling in love. The problem, of course, remains. Jack is a ghost. And Chiara is not. Jack Knight-Snow has had a bad year for losing things. So far he has lost a ship full of ancient treasure, his family, his friends, his title, his lands and money, his fiancé, the century into which he was born . . . oh, and his physical body. Worse, feisty Chiara D'Angelo might just finish the job and make him lose his mind. For her part, Chiara simply wants to help Jack get his body back and move on with his life. She doesn't want to like his snarky humor or his gorgeous eyes or the way he accepts her exactly as she is. She's a hot mess when it comes to romantic relationships. Case in point . . . she's developing feelings for a ghost. But tackling the problem of Jack's ghostliness is not straightforward. Soon, Jack and Chiara find themselves embroiled in a mystery which creates more questions about the D'Angelo brothers' gifts of Second Sight. Set against the backdrop of Tuscany, Italy, Jack and Chiara race to uncover answers about the past before becoming history themselves.
