It is important to understand that no woodwork project is going to be insignificant for you. You just need to carry on learning. Do not expect a ready-made blueprint to do everything for you. Even if you get your hands on a ready-made design and step-by-step instructions, you will need some basic practice with woodworking tools.
Start with an idea in mind of what you want to build and then get a really good woodworking project plan that is geared toward beginners. There are several small woodworking projects for beginners available for purchase from online woodworking retailers. A few woodworking plan suggestions to get you thinking are: a jewelry box, a music box, a clock, a bird house, a chessboard or checkerboard, a rocking horse for a child just to name a few. Of course you can start out with as grand a woodworking plan as you choose. However, the chances are if you start out with a small woodworking project at first, you will have a better chance of completing the project.
Over this past weekend I happened to spend some time in the shop of another woodworker, and he and I got to talking about the problems that a new woodworker faces. The more we talked, the more we became convinced that many new woodworker actually make it harder on themselves to become a successful woodworker than necessary. Now I know that you are not going to let me get away with making a statement like that without some explanation.
Slightly Overwhelming
What Kind of Projects Does Ted's Woodworking Package Contain?
Woodworking is one hobby that can also be a rewarding profession if you love to work with your hands and build beautiful pieces of furniture from wood. When you learn the woodworking crafts and become a fine woodworking craftsman, you will be able to build all kinds of furniture, (table, beds, and chairs), with ease. You can then sell your completed woodworking projects and make a handsome profit.
Most experienced woodworkers would agree that the art is still a progressive experience, taking many years to learn and advance in skill-level. The knowledge needed to create a stunning and functional chest of drawers, grandfather clock, desk or other fine piece of furniture for example, takes time and practice to develop. And the skills needed often overlap the different areas of specialization in woodworking.
Woodworking manufacturers generally have two very real reservations about using an outside service: cost and control. Woodworking industry in timber and wood industry in use is multitude of very different woodworking knives.
Not knowing where to start or how to focus their interests, many people new to woodworking become discouraged and frustrated and soon give up. In addition, taking on projects that are too difficult or trying to work with inadequate tools can also lead beginners to decide that woodworking is not for them.
And if you are a woodworking beginner, these 3 following questions have to be answered:

On October 19, 1957, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip saw their first football game, and it starred UNC and Maryland.
The football game, held at Maryland, was part of the Queen's first state visit to the United States. In honor of the visit, UNC arranged for a BBC broadcast of UNC songs such as "Hark the Sound" to air the day before the game. At halftime, students presented the Queen with a banner, the 1957 Yackety Yack, and stuffed rams for her children.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Santa Clara women's golf returns to action Monday at the 14-team Fresno State Classic, contested on the 6,200-yard, par-72 Copper River Country Club layout in Fresno, Calif. Teams and individuals will play 36-holes on the first day of the two-day event with a shotgun start format getting things going at 8:45 a.m. PT.
It's been nearly three weeks since the team last competed and the players are eager to put that 13th place finish at the BYU at Entrada Classic behind them. The Broncos placed outside the top-10 in their last two events after grabbing four podium finishes, including a victory at the Pat Lesser Harbottle Invitational, in their opening five tournaments of the year.
"The team looks good," head coach Krystal Kelly said. "Their ball striking is much better than the last few weeks and they look refreshed."
Sophomores Emily Sumner and Sarah Busey will anchor the team from the No. 1 and No. 2 spot in the lineup. The duo, along with freshman Claire Choi, has competed in all seven tournaments. Sumner tops the squad with a 74.00 stroke average with Busey second at 74.33. They both have three top-10 finishes this year.
Returning to the lineup is junior Marni Murez, who did not compete in the BYU tournament. Freshman Duong Tran rounds out the Broncos five-player team.
Isabella Seeburger and Naomi Wong will play as individuals. This will be the first collegiate event for Wong.
You can check out team and individual season stats by clicking here.
"This course sets up well for them," Kelly added. "I'm excited to see what they post tomorrow."
The Broncos have enjoyed success at this tournament with a pair of individual titles. Miki Ueoka established a tournament low 54-hole score with a 209 in 2009. Annie Freeman has the 36-hole tournament record at 136 in 2016. Freeman's victory took place at San Joaquin Country Club.
Currently at No. 106 in the Golfstat.com poll, the Broncos will contend with four teams ranked above them. UC Davis at No. 71 is the highest ranked team in the field. No. 92 UTEP, No. 97 Fresno State and No. 105 Nevada are also scheduled to peg it up.
First round play begins at 8:45 a.m. PT with a shotgun start. Live scoring will be available at Golfstat.com.
Name: Fresno State Classic
Dates (Site): Monday-Tuesday, Apr. 1-2 (Fresno, Calif.)

In today's world, the need to transfer vast amounts of data at high speeds is required. In many Enterprise datacenters, fiber is sometimes used to handle this task but the price of expensive optics and other factors might require a copper based solution.
Enter Category 7 cables!
Category 7's most notable quality is its capability of handle speeds of up to 10 Gbps over 100 meters, especially when compared to Cat6 and Cat5e's 1 Gbps speeds over the same distance. During testing, speeds of up to 40 Gbps have been measured over a distance of 50 meters, and up to 100 Gbps over 15 meters. And, Cat7 cables are able to deliver those high speeds at a higher frequency of 600 MHz, as opposed to Cat6a's max frequency of 500 MHz. This means that a Cat7 cable will be able to transfer data faster than any of the previous category cables, making it an ideal option for wiring smart homes, data centers, large enterprise networks or anywhere else a high-speed wired connection is required.
Aside from speed, Cat7's other benefits of note include the extensive shielding of its twisted pairs which can considerably reduce signal attenuation and improve noise resistance. The individual pairs in these cables are shielded with an additional layer of shielding over the whole cable.
Cat7 cables are also extremely durable and generally have a longer lifespan that Cat5 and Cat6 cables. And while Cat7 cables can be more expensive than other category cables, that price can be offset by their increased performance and resilience.
Cat7 has a good amount of admirable qualities and with it being backward compatible with traditional Cat5 and Cat6 cables, Category 7 might be the right choice for your next wired installation. If your application is outdoors or in an industrial environment, check out our new rugged, Cat7 cables with 10 Gig rating.

What's better than Power over Ethernet? More Power over Ethernet (PoE), of course – and that is exactly what PoE++ is delivering. PoE++ expands upon the traditional PoE benefits of delivering data and power over a single Ethernet cable, it increases power capabilities and extends PoE's reach into new industries and applications. Here, we'll tell you exactly what gives PoE++ those two extras plus signs. First, let's look at a numbers comparison. The first ratified PoE standard 802.3af supports 15.44 watts of power, but power dissipation usually lowers that number to a reliable 12.95 watts. Then PoE+ was introduced and bolstered power to 30.8 watts with the 802.3at standard, though power dissipation usually takes its toll and lowers power to 25.5 watts. PoE++ (the 802.3bt standard) will be capable of supplying more than 3 times the power of PoE+ with up to 100 watts (Type 4) of DC power and the ability to support 10 Gbps connections. Traditionally, PoE has been used in networking applications. With PoE++, the technology's reach is extended to include healthcare, point of sale, financial and surveillance industry applications. PoE++ utilizes all four twisted pairs of an Ethernet cable for optimal power transmission. It consists of Mode A and Mode B, and combines them to reach higher voltage levels. Mode A is also referred to as Type A, Type 3 or 4-pair PoE. It is specified for 60W, 50W reliable, and is able to support technology such as access controls, point of sale readers, IP cameras and nurse call devices. Mode B is also known as Type B, Type 4 or higher-power PoE. It is designed for 100 watts of power, 80 watts after power dissipation, and increases the capabilities to also include support of videoconferencing systems, laptops, desktops and televisions. PoE++ is slated to bring more power, more conveniently to more devices than ever before. With all of the speed, convenience and capabilities that this new technology offers, it's no wonder that PoE++ earned those extra plus marks.

Not sure of the difference between USB 3.1 Gen 1 (aka SuperSpeed USB) and USB 3.1. Gen 2 (aka SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps or SuperSpeed+)? Don't worry, you're not alone. USB has rebranded and restructured how it differentiates between the two, leaving many scratching their heads as to which is which. Have no fear though, we've got it all figured out and are here to clear it up for you.
If you were impressed by the super speeds brought to you courtesy of USB 3.1, then you're going to be over the moon for USB 3.1 Gen 2. This iteration of USB technology bolsters speeds and delivers additional benefits sure to please all users. As its name suggests, SuperSpeed+ USB increases the data transfer rate from 5 Gbps to 10 Gbps, making it twice as fast as USB 3.1 Gen 1 and on par with first generation Thunderbolt technology. USB 3.1 Gen 2 also uses more efficient data encoding, which not only increases throughput, but also improves I/O power efficiency.
Though the maximum cable length is shortened from 5 meters to 1 meter, USB 3.1 Gen 2 maintains the capability of data plus power over one cable and it can support multiple cameras and the USB3 Vision standard. Plus, USB 3.1 Gen 2 increases the power delivery level from 4.5 Watts to an astounding 100 Watts. This standard will also support USB Type-C, USB DisplayPort over Type-C and USB Power Delivery.
USB 3.1 Gen 2 is fully backward compatible with existing USB 3.0 software and devices, 5 Gbps hubs and devices as well as USB 2.0 products. In case there's still some lingering confusion, here's a handy chart to help compare these two side-by-side.

The path to 10 Gbps is now paved with copper! Cat6a cables, couplers and adapters can transmit at speeds of up to 10 Gigabits per second! Ten times as fast as Cat6 and cheaper than fiber cabling, Cat6a is a high performance, cost-effective solution for moving large volumes of voice, video and data traffic over a network.
Until recently, fiber connectivity was the only way to achieve 10 Gbps transmission rates. Now you have options with Cat6a reaching 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds at frequencies of up to 500 MHz over low cost copper cable. Cat6a's accelerated performance is perfect for use in data centers and storage area networks (SAN) that need to move sometimes terabits of data.
In addition to being fast, Cat6a boasts additional superior capabilities including longer distances (up to 100 meters for 10GBASE-T), easier migration and less crosstalk than Cat6. Plus, Cat6a cables are backward-compatible with existing network interface cards and connectors, making for an easier migration path. Also Cat6a cables are shielded, enhancing overall performance and making them more resistant to noise, interference and alien crosstalk.
With off the chart performance characteristics, Cat6a cables, couplers and other infrastructure products provide an ideal cost effective solution to meet today's high speed networking demands. Start paving your way to blistering network speeds today!
To help you build your Cat6a network we offer Cat6a cables, adapters, couplers, patch panels RJ45 plugs and bulk cable! View all of our Cat6a products!

What a pleasant day it has been. The weather is mild, chickens laid two eggs, and those two details made a great start.
While waiting for Timber to arrive for grooming, I played a few games on the iPad and sorted a pile in the spare bedroom.
What a voyage of discovery, or re-discovery that was! I'm awful: I was unearthing items and thinking, "Oh, I didn't remember I had that!", and, "Am I ever glad I didn't get rid of this!". But what does it all mean anyway? Who else will care? I labelled a few items, if I remembered when and why I bought them (some were purchased by me, as a child!). There were a few things I set aside to consider later, whether to sell on eBay or give away. One thing I looked at, as if for the first time ever, is an old pocket watch that appears to be … Russian. Where in the world would I have got that? Did Myrtle find it at a yard sale? Could it have come from my ex-in-laws?
In general, many of the things I found/inspected/considered today were small and not really in the way of my down-sizing efforts. It was fun.
Taffy's cage was overdue for cleaning, so I did that, and shampooed the piggy as well. I love that little creature, and she is calm while handled by me, so I'll take that as affection.
I was thinking back to more than thirty years ago when I had many guinea pigs, too many dogs, plus a few rabbits, hamsters, budgies and more. I wish I hadn't been a pet hoarder at all, ever. For a few years, I collected, bred, showed and sold many animals. I like to believe that I didn't neglect my husband or our children, but a lot of the animal care hours were … wasted time, in a sense. I didn't make anything pay. I was searching for something, and found little in the way of satisfaction or validation, mostly frustration and exhaustion. If I could go back, I would do better. I am sorry. And I can't go back.
Today I brushed Timber and clipped her nails. She is offended by the Dremel tool (hobby rotary sander/nail polisher), so I only did a tiny bit of "grinding", only enough to remind the big gentle puppy that it won't hurt.
Max was boarding too. After Timber was picked up, I opened the bird cage, as Max likes to spend time on top of it, surveying the kennel building imperiously.
I was loafing in the cozy house for an hour when I thought, "Oh SHIT! I forgot to put the cats outside! Must say, I had a vision of a dead parrot and terrible news to deliver to Max's owners. What a relief it was when I lit out of the door of the house and heard Max jabbering from that distance and through the closed door/windows of my shop. When I opened that door, I saw Sam and Smokey resting comfortably at the base of the bird cage. Max must have got down and walked right among the ferocious hunters, as I found evidence: bird droppings, a nibbled book and a pen chewed into the tiniest of bits.
The cats must not know what to think of Max. Sam has killed rabbits, and I think a grouse, and Smokey has hunted down many birds. But the parrot? Almost human. Maybe the cats simply don't know what to think.
It was not very busy otherwise, this Remembrance Day weekend. Boarders are only Dexter and Jazzmin, Seltzer and Maya, and Jayda. Max was picked up.
Last night Grizzly and Sasha were picked up. There were here for a short stay, and for grooming. Gary made sure they felt at ease with him.
I guess I'm all talked out! Feeling weary and ready to sprawl on the couch.

The new poll is out! This Saturday, April 25 is the Saint Joseph Home 5k which is one of the hardest 5k courses that I have run so this poll focuses on what local race has the toughest 5k course. Vote now! I limited it to current since the only past course that I still have nightmares about is the Spaghetti Knob 5k(circa 1998) and I never ran the Memorial Day Race Course at Mount Storm Park(legend has it that the course was redesigned in 1993 since the prior one was too hilly). If I missed a local race with a difficult course, please add it to the comments section. Also, if there were past races that had difficult course, also add those .
If you plan to help out at the Marathon and definitely would like T-shirt, you have until this Friday April 24 to sign-up(After all they have to sort and get together about 2,000 T-shirts for the various charities, groups and individuals). If you wear a small, sign up now to guarantee yourself a T-shirt. The Runners' Club of Greater Cincinnati has a waterstop at mile 22 and we still can use people to help out. Mile 22 is where the marathon really begins for the marathoners and your support and encouragement means plenty to them. If you are running the marathon, please encourage your friends and family to help out. If you're not running, join us for a little fun and help us help the runners at mile 22. To volunteer at our waterstop:

Electric bicycle, refers to the battery as a supplementary energy on the basis of ordinary bicycles, the installation of the motor, controller, battery, handlebar and other control components and display instrumentation system of mechanical and Electric Bike electrical integration of personal transport; 2013 "China Electric bicycle industry innovation peak forum "data show that China's electric bicycles cut through the 2013 volume of 200 million, and has been in dispute in the electric bike" new national standard "will also be introduced. The new national standard is expected to set off a big change in the electric bicycle industry.
The history of the development of electric bicycles, the industry generally recognized as the three stages of development: the initial stage of electric bicycles, the initial production scale stage, speeding stage of development.
The initial stage of electric bicycles is also known as the early stage of experimental production of electric bicycles, from time to time, that is, from 1995 to 1999. This stage is mainly on the four major electric bike, motor, battery, charger and controller of the key technology to explore the study. In the R & D production is mainly to produce spontaneous collection of information, tracking technology, organization of market observation, small batch of market trial put on, but also makes Electric Bike electric bicycles began to enter the consumer's vision, and they gradually recognized to accept. From the technical level, the early electric bike, the new battery charge can only travel about 30 km, battery life is short, climbing ability is poor, easy to wear, and the motor is also brushless toothless motor. But the accumulation of this period, only for the current scale of the industrialization of talent, technology and product development and other aspects of the foundation.
The second stage is called the initial production scale of the stage, is due to this period of time there will be a few electric bikes to promote the opportunity, making the early stages of struggling electric bike suddenly ushered in the spring, more The development of the industry has entered a scale.
This time period is generally recognized as a period from 2000 to 2004, during which time, as the key technical breakthroughs and the performance of electric bicycles continue to improve, so that electric bicycles become motorcycles and bicycles Alternative products, and its fast, environmentally friendly, convenient and cheap, but also to stimulate the market for the Electric Bike requirements of electric bicycles. In the growing market demand, the previous R & D and production enterprises quickly rise, some new enterprises have begun to enter, their electric bicycle investment is also increasing, making the rapid expansion of production capacity (see details of Table 1.1). Moreover, this time quickly jump up the business is generous operation, has been the older generation of R & D and production enterprises behind. However, some well-known brands as the representative of the scale of enterprises has been formed, and in accordance with the North-South differences, but also formed the industry's Jiangsu Wuxi, Zhejiang, Tianjin, represented by the three major industrial agglomeration.
The third stage is from 2005 to the present, this stage is China's electric bicycle speeding stage, the industry dubbed the "well logging stage." In this period of time, with the fierce competition between enterprises greatly stimulated the progress of technology and new technology diffusion, the technical level of the industry greatly improved battery life and capacity increased by 35%, the motor from a single brush has Tooth motor developed into a brushless high efficiency motor for the mainstream, life increased by 5 times, efficiency increased by nearly 30%, climbing and load capacity increased by about 3.5 times. In the performance improvement at the same time, manufacturing costs have dropped significantly, the price power Electric Bike dropped to the original 21%; in the controller system and charging system, the technical level has increased significantly. Especially in the battery technology and motor technology have made great progress, electric vehicles for lead-acid batteries in the technical breakthrough has been leading the international, and the formation of the days of energy, ultra-Wei as the leading Zhejiang Changxing plate, Kang Lien, Double board as the representative of the Jiangsu plate and to Ruida as the representative of the Guangdong plate. The battery also has a single lead-acid battery evolved out of many types of high-performance batteries, and the emergence of lithium batteries, more driving the electric bike, especially the development of simple models. In the motor, the invention of permanent magnet brushless motor, so that the pace of development of the industry significantly accelerated. The key to the performance of the motor is the performance of the ferromagnetic material. In all kinds of permanent magnetic materials, the performance of the rare earth permanent magnet material is the most superior. China is the world's recognized rare earth resources and rare earth products manufacturing power. As the rare earth strong magnetic material performance, low prices, manufacturing capacity, making the international market price is expensive BLDC (brushless DC permanent magnet motor) system in China enterprises are widely used, electric bicycle industry thus gained a unique advantage. From the industry's total production and sales point of view, in 2005, hundreds of enterprises in various light electric vehicles (including electric bicycles) is expected to total output of more than 9 million, exports about 200 to 3 million, the industrial output value of 200 Billion, profits and taxes of about 6 billion yuan, the relevant production and service areas of employment nearly 100 million people. China's light electric vehicle production and sales have accounted for more than 90% of the world, China has become the world's largest light electric vehicle producer, consumer and exporting countries.
In China from the 80s of last century, it was developed a electric bike, and constantly improve its structure. Until the beginning of this century, electric bicycles was able to a large number of promotion, into numerous families.

"Journalist" is a general title describing a broad category of jobs where you report on news for broadcast, print or online media. A journalist may write stories for a newspaper or website, or provide on-camera television reports. A bachelor's degree in journalism or communication is often required. Despite long hours and moderate pay, journalism careers do offer several important advantages.
Experience Field-Based Excitement
A journalist is often out in the field chasing news and following up on tips and leads. For someone who does not want to be tied to a desk all day, the excitement of traveling around and hunting for news is a great fit. Though journalists often start in local news positions, career advancement may lead to opportunities to travel nationally and even internationally to cover major news stories for large media companies. Seeing the news they cover presented to readers or TV viewers gives journalists a huge sense of accomplishment.
Meet Interesting People
Journalists get a chance to interview interesting people in the course of preparing news stories. Newspaper and web reporters conduct background research -- including interviewing people who are relevant to the story -- as part of the reporting process. Broadcast journalists get to perform live on-air interviews with guests. In this role you get a chance to meet and chat with a wide range of local business, government and community leaders. As you grow in your career, you may get the chance to interview famous athletes, musicians, politicians and other celebrities. Reporters can also derive personal pleasure from presenting compelling profiles of the subjects they interview.
Feed Your Curiosity
In an April 2012 article, "Forbes" journalist Jeff Bercovici noted that journalists essentially get paid to read a lot and to learn. Your primary role is to learn about new and interesting people and events, and then convert what you know into a compelling story for the audience. A reporter is similar to a detective in the way she investigates leads, fields calls with tips and forms theories. The difference is the journalist turns the investigation into news rather than a court case.
Opportunity for Fast Advancement
The journalism profession is very competitive and the demand for jobs often exceeds what employers have available. However, skilled writers and reporters who show their talents in local markets can quickly gain exposure and advancement opportunities. A journalist's work is directly in the public eye. Your name is attached to the stories you report on. Executives at large media companies want journalists who can break stories and bring in readers and viewers. If you build a reputation for breaking important news stories, or for getting exclusive interviews with important people, your stock rises quickly and so do your job opportunities.

THE ACT OF KILLING: Q&A with Joshua Oppenheimer
Disturbing, surreal and entirely engrossing, The Act of Killing has been making waves as much for its daring originality as for its chilling content. Joshua Oppenheimer dedicated a decade of his life to creating this beautiful, terrible vision, finding that in a society where glorified mass-murderers live amongst the families of their victims, he had to find a new kind of filmmaking to get to the heart of his subject matter.
By working with the perpetrators of the 1960s Indonesian genocide to re-enact their crimes in the glamorous, hyper-real style of Hollywood movies, Oppenheimer broke all the rules of documentary filmmaking, creating a genre-bending hybrid that is piercing on both a factual and emotional level.
Presented by Between the Lines in association with Picturehouse Docs, The Bertha Foundation and Tapol.
Between the Lines was a three-day festival organised by DocHouse and the Frontline Club in March 2013. In a series of follow up events we continued to explore the challenges facing documentary makers, investigative journalists and citizen reporters in the new media landscape.
"Truly one of the most intensely unsettling, frightening, riveting films I've seen, maybe ever." – Indiewire
"A powerful piece of creative political documentary filmmaking." – Screen International

Happy weekend, Widdershins. Time to detox from the week's debris, and who doesn't love a great movie? There are several new ones that I would like to see, but for now, let's work with those old standbys that have attracted a cult following.
Cult classics are proliferative, and not everyone is in agreement about which films deserve this (dubious?) distinction. One person's cult classic is sometimes another's example of a gawdawful flick, but we can live with that. Just post your nominees – or anything else that strikes your fancy – in this wide open thread.
(1)The Rocky Horror Picture Show
(2) The Big Lebowski
(3) Easy Rider
(4) Reefer Madness
(5) Dirty Dancing

As cliché as I know I will sound I have to honestly say my life has not been the same since the day my oldest daughter was born. From the moment I looked into those beautiful eyes I made a vow not only to her but to myself. I vowed that I would be the best mom in the world and I would go to the ends of the earth to make sure this gift that I had been trusted with would never have to worry about anything in her life. I was gonna be just like Claire Huxtable, Carol Brady and Florida Evans ( don't judge me all these moms together make like a super mom times 10!!). Any issue we would ever have would be resolved in like 30 minutes max, because just like the offspring of these mothers, she would always come to the brilliant realization that I always have her best interest at heart..this was gonna be a breeze!! I mean looking back now it was like I completely ignored the fact that I was a HORRIBLE teenager that gave my mom a run for her money probably since the day I learned to talk. I was oblivious to the fact that you reap what you sow and karma is a nasty, ugly…well you know what. My child would be a completely perfect angel that would never cause her mother any strife. Boy was I wrong on so many levels in every way possible.
Apparently "Generation Z" children are born knowing everything in life that they will ever need to know….ever. Their parents don't know anything and everything they are experiencing has neverr been experienced by anyone else born before them. Oh my silly, silly child. I'm still perplexed when I look around the house and realize we don't have a set of encyclopedias yet somehow this child knows EVERYTHING. When offering my knowledge and experience on anything my information is almost always inaccurate unless of course the internet happens to align with me. Side note to parents, be sure to reference the website utilized to support your point beforehand or all information that flows from your mouth before mentioning your online reference will be null and void.
Somehow between the arguments, punishments and occasional silent treatments (no worries…. the longest one only lasted maybe 2 days) I opened my eyes and realized I raised a really good kid. She helps out with her brothers a lot and now that she's driving she offers to pick up, drop off and run to the store often.. now that I think about I really think the trips to the store are more for her than for me, but I digress. She's preparing to start her second semester of college soon and all I can think about is everything I haven't gotten a chance to teach her. It's like we just celebrated her 3rd birthday and the most important thing in her world was her mommy and The Wiggles, and now she's making decisions about her life and career path. She asks my advice on everything and even offers my advice to her friends because according to her I "know a lot of stuff" (I actually overheard her say this to her friend and it made my whole day). I know hat stubborn streak that has earned her many days of phone probation will turn into determination to never give up and follow her dreams and perseverance to stay in the race even when times get tough. I know she's realizing that her mom really does have her best interest at heart….even if it did take a little longer than 30 minutes.

Now as soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. But Simon's wife's mother lay sick with a fever, and they told Him about her at once. So He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and immediately the fever left her. And she served them. (Mark 1:29-31)
It's a quaint little story that carved another notch in the stock of Jesus' ministry. We would like to imagine that the scene was calm and that people in the room were quiet and hopeful. Kind of like the mood beside the bed of a hospitalized loved one.
But it wasn't like that at all, for immediately before this, Jesus had been at war… in the church!
He had been teaching His well-prepared Sunday School lesson and like a good teacher, the Lord was engaging, putting to shame the over-educated scribes. Listeners were hanging onto every word. Then all hell broke loose.
It went something like this: A demon-possessed man screamed at Jesus and argued for the right of wickedness to coexist with holiness. Unswayed by this devilish diversion, Jesus rolled up His sleeves and went to battle. He commanded the demon to come out of him. And with a little kicking and fussing, it did.
Right after this happened, Jesus and His Sunday School class went to Peter's home where Peter's mother-in-law lay at death's door. That's where we'd like to think that the mood was reticent and grim. But not so, for churchgoers were still talking loudly about the Sunday School lesson and the dearly departed demon.
With this holy buzz in the air, someone reported the urgency of mom's condition. Without hesitating, Jesus went to work, again.
The weary Savior could have told Andrew or James or John, or even Peter, to simply go into the woman's room, take her by the hand, and lift her up to healing. But He did it Himself. The battle now was not violent and fearsome as it was a few minutes prior. It was compassionate and gentle. Godly authority tackles demons and soothes fevers, sometimes at the same time.
Leaders are not afraid to engage tough issues and hopeless circumstances. They sweat and tire and get dirty. They wrestle with spiritual wickedness in high places and hurting people in the lowness of life. But at the end of the day, true leaders still have a gentle touch and soft words… and fierce hearts.
People are glad when teachers like this lead the church.
People are glad when leaders like this enter the room.

With former Alabama quarterback AJ McCarron no longer under the NCAA's thumb, the three-time national champion can now start to compete with his girlfriend, Katherine Webb, to see who can get more sponsorship opportunities. While Webb has a full year's head start (and one very intriguing Carl's Jr. commercial), McCarron is already on the campaign to catch up. According to ESPN's Darren Rovell, McCarron has signed a deal with AXE Hair.
The guys @AXE Hair have signed a deal to work with former Bama QB @10AJMcCarron
— darren rovell (@darrenrovell) January 29, 2014
There are mixed opinions on where McCarron will be taken in May's NFL draft, along with how successful he'll be in his professional career. But if he lands a starting job, you can be sure to see more companies looking to take advantage of his clean image. If not, well, let's just hope he pumps out some solid commercials in 2014.

The video above contains spoilers for Logan. The text below will not.
Logan had a huge debut this weekend, grossing far more than most R-rated movies and possibly setting a new record for March releases. Boyd Holbrook (who plays Donald Pierce) is willing to bet it will outgross the hugely-successful Deadpool. Even if it doesn't, this "gritty superhero movie you've been waiting for" is yet more evidence that there is an audience for R-rated superhero movies.
Now Mr. Sunday Movies — who often does trailer breakdowns — has made a spoiler-filled roundup of Logan's Easter eggs, references, and cameos linked to the comics, the other films, and character histories. He also tries to make sense of Logan's convoluted timeline and how it may fit with the other X-Men movies. Although would it really be an X-Men movie if the timeline made total sense?
The intro to the video hits on what made it so successful. Realism. "Logan isn't considered your typical comic book movie. Sure, it's got a guy that's well over a hundred years old with unbreakable metal blades that come out of his hands, plus a mind-reading old British man and people with robot limbs and a bunch of kids with special and improbable abilities, but, still, this is the realest thing you'll ever see in your life."

Just take a selfie
CHRISTINA DENISEFriday, May 3, 2019 5:14:36 AM
It was released on January 29, , through Dim Mak Records. The Chainsmokers, composed of Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall, had noticed how the word selfie had become a trend and they wanted to take advantage of it.
They made a demo of a song containing monologue from a female clubber about taking good selfies. So when they were composing the track, they wanted to incorporate the "let me take a selfie" line in it somehow. Honestly, " Selfie" is kind of a phenomenon for us. We made it and thought it was funny and put it out as an edit.
Then Dim Mak wanted to buy it, and they bought it from us and put it out officially and we made a video for it.
This was all just because we thought it was fun. And then the song just kind of took on a life of its own. Which is honestly really great because it's brought in a new audience of people that listen to music that we've made that we're more passionate about.

Laniakea is an invitation to experience a different scale of space and time. Music and projected imagery open onto the cosmos and evoke ancient, ancestral narratives in a synaesthetic, immersive, music-digital media live performance featuring Chinese lute virtuoso Jasmine Chen (Taiwan) and master percussionist Michael Askill (Australia)
Laniakea – Hawaiian for immeasurable heavens – celebrates the connection between humans and the stars, the intimate and the infinite in the super-clusters of deep space. Film projections and live musicians are intertwined through shared imagery that includes the Pipa or Chinese Lute, a trajectory of human figures journeying in space, and active threads of light appear as diagrammatic trajectories of line that suggest molecular, cellular and cosmic space in constant momentum.
Composer Corrina Bonshek electroacoustic score is based on shifting timescales, where multiple versions of Pipa and Percussion music are heard simultaneously at different speeds in aural evocation of the expansion of our galaxy (spatialised by Anna Whitaker). Through deep and ongoing collaboration with Jasmine Chen, Bonshek gives full expression to the dynamic energy and stillness of Chen's virtuosic Pipa playing.
Bonshek envisages the music as a dance of dynamic energy and reverberant stillness, a giant heartbeat that connects the audience to the infinite. She conceives of the music as gapped clusters of live and electronically processed sound that will be drawn together and torn apart in an aural evocation of the velocity of stars over time. Before there was matter, there was sound in the form of the big bang. Our universe actually started with a song. What is the sound of the universe singing?
Daniel says: 'We know that space is charged with energies and contains particles of very real matter. Our relationship to Nature, to natural space, to each other and to the environments we live in are thematics that repeat and recycle in my work. Human beings are standing wave patterns of energy – we are complex harmonics – our bodies seem solid, but from another frequency, we might look like filaments of light transmitting as energy fields. Ultimately our physical bodies are the products of wave actions in space. Space is porous, biomorphic.' Read more in this Q&A with Belton.

Last December I was at the beginning of a huge adventure. I was in Tanzania along with my friends Jim and Carrie. A year ago today I was at a lodge on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. The Crater is an UNESCO World Heritage site. The road into the crater drops 2,000 feet from the rim to the floor. The floor of the crater is 9 miles across. Approximately 30,000 animals inhabit this area. If you saw the movie Out of Africa, the scene where Robert Redford's character takes Meryl Streep's character flying includes flying over the crater. You can read more about the crater here. Maasai people still herd cattle in the crater alongside elephants, rhinos, zebra, ostrich, lions, and cheetahs.There had been unseasonable long rains in December, and the roads were very muddy, and slick. Lions do not favor wet grass, and on the way down into the crater this young male was laying right next to the road in an attempt to avoid the wet grass.
This male baboon was sitting alongside the road as we drove along the rim of the crater.
We saw our first cheetahs in the crater. This one woke up, stretched, and walked away as we watched from the landcruiser.
Zebras were plentiful in the crater, and due to the protection from poaching in the elephants here were the largest we saw.
From my balcony at the lodge I could look into the crater and see elephants with my binoculars.
So on Christmas Eve, Carrie Jim and I spent our late afternoon gazing into the crater from our room. That evening we had a delicious dinner in the dining room. On Christmas night girls from the nearby Maasai village sang at the lodge, and men from the village danced in an evening performance.
