It was great to see Justin Rose win in such style at Torrey Pines last week. He's firmly established himself as the rightful World Number 1 and his win at the Farmers last week against a stacked field was almost serene in its ease. It was his 10th PGA Tour win, which puts him level with Sergio Garcia in the all-time list; it was also Rose's first on Poa Annua greens. This week he takes on World Numbers 2 (Koepka), 4 (Dustin Johnson) and 5 (DeChambeau) in Saudi Arabia. Personally I was left a tad frustrated at the Farmers as Woodland (9th), Finau (13th) and Palmer (13th) all had each-way return wobbles. Thin margins in this game as always. As ever though Golf Betting System delivered with colleague Paul Williams producing a full 35/1 each-way place with Poulter in Dubai and tipping 100/1 Adam Scott in last week's Golf Betting System podcast. We had record download numbers once again last week, so get involved when this week's podcast is published on Tuesday.

Course Guide: Since 2015, the PGA Tour professionals in the main have welcomed the Tom Weiskopf-inspired changes to the Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale. 2014 had seen the course closed to undergo a major re-design which included new irrigation, re-surfacing of greens including new green locations at No. 2, No. 3, No. 4 and No. 14, bunker construction and tee construction. In all, 114 yards was added to the course across 11 holes, extending the layout to a 7,266 yard, Par 71 test. Set at approximately 1,250 feet above sea level, players face a different challenge this week as the golf ball will travel slightly further than they've experienced across Hawaii and California. Talking of challenges, players also need to embrace the atmosphere on the Stadium Course with over 600,000 spectators last year making this the most attended golf tournament on the planet.

Course Overview: Scoring at the Stadium Course tends to be around the -15/269 to -17/267 mark, unless course conditions are soft like they were in 2013 when Phil Mickelson won at an eye-watering -28/256. The freshly renovated course features an additional 114 yards of length, with fresh green surfaces featuring TifEagle Bermudagrass overseeded with Velvet Bentgrass and Poa Trivialis. These green complexes have now been in place for just over 4 years so shouldn't offer up too many surprises. They run pretty quick, unless rain comes and softens the course.
Undoubtedly the new Weiskopf-inspired Stadium Course is a tougher proposition than the previous set-up. Whilst greens aren't that difficult to hit for the very best ball-strikers, interestingly getting the ball close to the hole is the real difficulty of the course. Proximity to Hole rankings of 8th (2015), 2nd (2016), 6th (2017) and 10th at the last renewal highlight the fact that putters find it very difficult to be able to make the difference with their short game.
The course is scoreable, but when it's played as it was intended in terms of fairway/green speeds, this tournament never features scoring like we see at PGA West for the reasons listed above. Throw in the fact that scrambling is relatively easy here and it's clear that big hitting ball-strikers, who can consistently hit greens, have a real advantage here in the thinner air. This is no better illustrated than looking at course specialists such as Brendan Steele, Rickie Fowler, Jon Rahm and Hideki Matsuyama who must love attacking a set of par-5s, which read 558, 558 and 553 yards on the scorecard, at altitude.
Winners: 2018: Gary Woodland (-18); 2017: Hideki Matsuyama (-17); 2016: Hideki Matsuyama (-14); 2015: Brooks Koepka (-15); 2014: Kevin Stadler (-16); 2013: Phil Mickelson (-23); 2012: Kyle Stanley (-15); 2011: Mark Wilson (-18); 2010: Hunter Mahan (-16).

Weather Forecast: The latest weather forecast for Scottsdale, Arizona is here. Scottsdale has actually seen a little rain in January, but it was earlier in the month and won't have any significant impact on tournament conditions. However rain is in the forecast across the tournament. There's a 70% chance of precipitation overnight on Thursday and 60% chance of precipitation overnight on Saturday for the final round. Soft conditions in 2015 turned this into a total-driving fest, so bear that in mind. Temperatures also look like they will be down year on year, with sub-20 degree Celsius temperatures likely over the weekend. That again should aid those with power.

Let's take a view from players as to how the TPC Scottsdale sets up and what skill sets the course favours:
Gary Woodland (2018): "I put a lot of work in this off season. I mean obviously I knew what has been going on in the last couple years, short game, needed some adjustment, I spent some time with Pete Cowen. Pete really got me to where I have confidence in my short game and that allowed me to be more aggressive and let Butch and I do what we do. And play aggressive off the tee, play aggressive with the irons and attack from there. It's been a big difference"
Jordan Spieth: "Yeah, I'll play the 17th aggressively. I'll try and knock it on the green. If I get out of position, you can always make par unless you hit it obviously in the water. You can still make par from there. They get that pin way in the back in that little sliver, and I'll probably still try and hit driver up the green. If it goes offline and I can't get next to the hole, then you hit it to about 20 feet and two-putt and don't do anything more. I saw quite a few shots in my experience last time, including my own, and I think I made par to that hole by playing conservatively, and that's fine. I think if you play the hole 2-under for the week, you've done a good job. So it will be a good test this week. These greens are very pure. If you're putting well, you can really putt well out here. It's not Poa annua."
Hideki Matsuyama: "Before the re-design or the changes, I thought it was an easier course than it is now. I mean, the 2nd hole and the 14th hole have really put some bite into this course, and those are two difficult holes right now where before they weren't that difficult."
Brooks Koepka: "15, 16, 17 is just I think an unbelievable finish. There is so much risk reward, like you said. And if you hit a couple of quality golf shots, you can really make a move, whereas, you know, the opposite, you hit one bad one, and you can run up a number pretty quick. Luckily I was able to pull some shots off."
Phil Mickelson: "I think, for the most part, they're very well done. The first year you always have to cut some slack because the greens are firm and unreceptive because the roots haven't had a chance to grow in. You want to cut it some slack the first year. But I think it looks really good. Surprisingly, the greens are putting very true and in wonderful shape. I was pleasantly surprised. In terms of new bunkering, I thought it was strategic and well-placed in a lot of holes. I have always liked Weiskopf's stuff. He has great strategy from a player's standpoint. Really not too much was done differently other than three or four holes; otherwise, very similar throughout."
Bubba Watson: "It's just a different mindset, I mean, when you're adding length to a golf course you still have to hit driver. But it's funny to me how they add length and then shorten the landing zone. They make it skinnier. They don't want you to hit it any farther but they want to stretch the course out. It's funny to me. It makes this golf course a lot different and tougher. Today I hit my driver nicely. I think I missed two fairways, which is pretty good for me. G30 worked out today. But, yeah, for me today it was about the driver. Around this golf course my driver stays in play. My irons are pretty decent. So now it's a driving golf course. There are a couple things they could tweak here and there. It's about 85 to 80% perfect the way they changed it, but there are a couple of little things. Nothing major, though. It doesn't change the outcome of the score if you changed them, but just the way it looks."
Ryan Palmer: "In the past it's been better for me, I think, because there is a lot of shots that, a lot of draw ball tee shots. A lot of greens set up for me, as well, depending on where the pin is obviously. I was able to kind of attack the golf course with the length I have. From what it is now to what it used to be, it's definitely longer, for sure. I used to hit a lot of wedges, sand wedges, and we are not doing that anymore. But I like what they did from tee to green. They did a lot of good things. There are a few greens that I'm sure if you ask a lot of players they weren't very pleased about, but overall I think they did a really good job with it. It's in perfect shape, for sure. Greens are rolling pretty pure, of course with the bounces they are getting. Overall I think they did a good job."

So what's the recipe for success this week? Well key player attributes rewarded here undoubtedly include driving distance, consistent ball-striking and a high Going for the Green rate. Players who can hit the ball both high and consistently well thrive on Weiskopf's design which features relatively large and flat green complexes. The re-laid greens themselves are quite tricky as they feature a TifEagle Bermudagrass base which has been overseeded with Velvet Bentgrass and Poa Trivialis. They play like Bentgrass, with little grain. All winners here since 2010 have featured in the Top 10 for Greens in Regulation and I can't see that changing in 2019. Course experience is not essential here as both Kyle Stanley and Brooks Koepka won on their course debut.
Looking at the incoming form of recent winners, Gary Woodland 12 months ago had gone backwards when contending at Torrey Pines the week before. However an eventual 12th at Torrey was preceded by 7th at Waialae. Hideki Matsuyama in 2017 had finished 33rd at Torrey Pines and 27th at Waialae prior to arriving in Arizona, allowing his odds to grow to 11/1. Prior to that 4 wins and 2 runner-up positions including season-opener Kapalua had made him the hottest player on the planet. 2016 had seen him miss the cut at Torrey Pines on his 2016 debut, but 2nd at the Dunlop Phoenix in Japan and 5th at the CIMB Classic in Kuala Lumpur at the latter end of 2015 had shown promise in low-scoring events. Brooks Koepka had started the 2014/15 PGA Tour season strongly with 8th at Silverado and 4th at TPC Summerlin followed by his first main Tour career victory at the star-studded Turkish Airlines Open on the European Tour. This was his calendar debut. In 2014, 'Baby Walrus' Kevin Stadler had shaken the rust off at PGA West (78th) after a strong close to 2013 which included 4th at TPC Boston, 19th at Kuala Lumpur, 10th at Sea Island and 12th at El Camaleon.
My selections are as follows:
Justin Thomas 4pts Win 10/1 with *For the latest bet365 Opening Account Offer details see below, use bonus code SPORT100
I put Justin Thomas up for this 12 months ago and I have no hesitation again in 2019. In essence he has the perfect game for TPC Scottsdale, although a couple of 17th place finishes here in 2015 and 2018 don't back that up as fully as you might expect. 4th for Par Breakers, 4th for Ball Striking (imperative here), 7th for Greens in Regulation, 35th for Going for the Green and 10th for Total Driving (another key statistic), Thomas has quiet form which reads 16th Sony Open – 3rd Tournament of Champions – 12th World Challenge – 36th CJ Cup – 5th CIMB Classic. With in-your-face form hardly a guaranteed indicator of the champion here, these results make interesting reading and a closing -4/66 at Waialae and rounds of -6/67 and -8/65 at Kapalua highlight a player who isn't exactly struggling at the moment. 1st for Strokes Gained Approach and 2nd for Strokes Gained Tee to Green so far this season, on a track where Strokes Gained Putting isn't a factor, I think JT will fly this week.
That view can be backed up by previous performances here. On debut here as a Tour rookie in 2015 – it was only his 6th tournament on the Tour – Thomas shot 67/68 to be 3rd at halfway. -2/69 on the Saturday placed him in the 3rd last group Sunday, but a 72 on Sunday saw him drop to 17th. 12 months ago he was without caddie Jimmy Johnson and that undoubtedly affected his play, but he still finished with a 4th-best-in-field 66, to highlight that Scottsdale is a perfect track for the World Number 4. I also get the feeling with ultra-competitive Thomas that with the likes of World Number 1 Rose, Number 5 DeChambeau and Number 10 Schauffele having started 2019 with wins, he'll be eager to open his 2019 account and garner a 10th PGA Tour title. His results profile also stacks up well with both Hideki Matsuyama and Brooks Koepka, who have won 3 of the 4 titles played here since the re-design. From 2017 think Erin Hills and Quail Hollow where Thomas fired a U.S Open record low -10/62 on his way to 9th behind Brooks and fended off Hideki amongst others in North Carolina to win the PGA Championship. Wins at TPC Kuala Lumpur (2015/16) a victory at Kapalua (2017) and a top-3 in California at Silverado marry up well with both Matsuyama and Koepka.
I'll leave you with Justin's comments on TPC Scottsdale 12 months ago, "I like this course a lot. When you get in the fairway it's very, very scoreable. A lot of short irons in your hand, which I feel like is a strength of mine. And then from there it's just kind of leaving it in the right spots to get easy putts, because you can have some pretty tough putts, tough breaking putts where you're not as likely to make them. So just really kind of basically have control of your golf game." RESULT: 3rd
Hideki Matsuyama 2.5pt EW 14/1 with Bet £/€5 get £/€20 for new customers, 18+, T&Cs apply** (7 EW, 1/5 odds)
I'm going for a two-pronged approach at the top of the market with Hideki Matsuyama backing up Justin Thomas. With 14 PGA Tour wins between them, all of which have been since 2014, these two elite players undoubtedly know how to get over the line and in the case of Hideki, TPC Scottsdale is his true place of worship. With Woodland and Simpson both around the 20/1 mark, I know where I'd rather invest my cash this week. 4th here on debut in 2014, 2nd here in 2015 (at 28/1), 1st here in 2016 (at 28/1) and 1st here in 2017 (at 11/1), the Japanese is undoubtedly an enigma in this part of Arizona. The World Number 26 has had his problems since his last win back at Firestone South in 2017, but his play at Torrey Pines last week was superb. 8th for Greens in Regulation (his bread and butter), 6th for Strokes Gained on Approach, 12th for Strokes Gained Around the Green and 3rd for Strokes Gained Tee to Green, the old Hideki was back again for all to see. Asked what 3rd place behind Rose and Scott last week meant to the 26 year-old, Hideki replied, "I'm really happy that I played well this week, gave me some momentum going into next week and really looking forward to going back for Phoenix. I hit a lot of quality iron shots this week and that was my strength. It was a disappointing year last year in that it didn't include any victories, and so over the offseason, I've worked hard, trained hard. I was looking forward to starting the new season or the new year at Sony. Made the cut there that I don't usually do, which was good to play all four rounds. Got here to San Diego on Sunday and did some work. Glad to see it's paying off."
7 of his 13 career wins have been off the back of a top-10 in the tournament before but for me it was the Matsuyama's Sunday numbers which highlight a surge in confidence. He split 8 of 14 fairways and also hit 17 of 18 greens. 1st for Strokes Gained on Approach and Tee to Green tells you all you need to know, but for me his long bunker shot on the 16th to 7 inches was magnificent. As was his 234 yard second to 17 feet on the closing 18th hole. That's the kind of play that Matsuyama excels in – he ranks 11th this season for Going for the Green – and pays huge dividends around Scottsdale. So the Japanese star looks in rude health again and I think he'll be a serious factor come Sunday afternoon in Phoenix. RESULT: T15
Cameron Champ 1pt EW 66/1 with £40 welcome bonus*** for new customers, 18+, T&Cs apply (6 EW, 1/5 odds)
You have to be patient with young talent and despite plenty of excitement and what I think was an over-reaction from the odds compilers, I get the feeling that Cameron Champ will like what he sees at TPC Scottsdale this week. A Waialae track which was never going to be his cup of tea and a troublesome debut on the South Course at Torrey Pines, a track that has swallowed many a talented young golfer, has taken the gloss of his rookie season form. But as we know, top-level ball striking, power off the tee and aggressive play across a number of short par-4s, the driveable par-4 17th and the 3 short par-5s is the key here. Now Cameron is clearly powerful – 1st for Driving Distance, 3rd for Strokes Gained Off the Tee – but he also sits 31st for Total Driving, 14th for Ball Striking and 7th for Going for the Green. That will put him in good stead, especially if we see cold conditions in Arizona this week, with the ball not carrying as far. He also ranks 6th for Par Breakers and he'll like the move away from Poa Annua this week.
1st at the Sanderson Farms, 10th at the Mayakoba Classic and 6th at the RSM Classic had many punters backing the amazingly talented 23 year-old from Sacramento, California for The Masters. But Cameron needs to keep pushing as at the moment he isn't in the first Major of 2019 and Scottsdale could be a real opportunity for him. He appeared on golf betting radars at the 2017 U.S. Open hosted at Erin Hills, when he was 8th after 36 holes. His web.com season last year might also offer up more clues for this week. The winner of the Utah Championship at Oakridge Country Club, a Par 71 played at 4,000 feet above sea-level. He also finished 7th at the Wichita Open – a tournament which has a pretty rich history when it comes to the Phoenix Open. Charley Hoffman (2nd here in 2009), Matt Kuchar (3 top 10s here), Scott Piercy (3rd here in 2013 & 2 additional top 10s), Mathew Goggin (4th here in 2010), J.J. Spaun (4th here on debit in 2017) and Ollie Schniederjans (3rd here last year) have all won or finished in the top 4 in Wichita. RESULT: T67
Ryan Palmer 1pt EW 80/1 with New customers get £25 in free bets: 18+, T&Cs apply**** (7 places EW, 1/5 odds)
Ryan Palmer delighted me and then deposited my betslip into the dustbin with a 3rd Round 76 which ended all chances last week at Torrey Pines. Two strong rounds of -5/67 across both South and North Courses saw Ryan go out in the final group with World Number 1 Justin Rose and Hideki Matsuyama, however the Texan didn't cope well. You always need a little bit of luck with golf betting, especially when you're dealing with triple-digit chances, and Ryan clearly felt the Saturday pressure when partnered with a couple of the world's very best. Undoubtedly though Palmer is playing some excellent stuff and sure enough he shot a final round -4/68 to finish in 13th place. So I'm pleasantly surprised to see Ryan again at a decent enough price on a course he loves very much. 2nd here as long ago as 2006, 14th in 2010, 5th in 2013 and 2nd around this new design in 2015, the upwardly-mobile World Number 72 must arrive in good spirits.
Season 2018/19 on the PGA Tour has started well for Palmer who finished 33rd at TPC Kuala Lumpur, 3rd at Nine Bridges behind Koepka and Woodland and 7th at TPC Summerlin behind the likes of DeChambeau, Cantlay and Fowler. He's always been labelled within my 'desert rat' category and if there's rain across Friday and Sunday, a soft course will really fall into his wheelhouse. 8th for Par Breakers, 24th for Greens in Regulation and 35th for Going for the Green, Ryan was 2nd for Proximity to Pin and 3rd for SG on Approach last week at Torrey Pines. RESULT: T60

To John Adams from Henry Colman, 1 January 1817
Philadelphia. 1 Jany. 1817.
Dear Sir,
You know my vanity and therefore are probably surprized that I have not before this transmitted you a journal of my travels; now do not condemn me too soon nor at any rate too severely but let it mitigate my sentence to recollect that Mrs. Adams herself invited this freedom and that I avail myself of the honor and kindness of that permission.
I shall always consider myself, my dear Sir, under the greatest obligations to yourself and Mrs Adams for innumerable acts of disinterested kindness, which great minds only know how to practise, and which I hope good minds will never be wanting properly to appreciate. If I do not often acknowledge, it is not because I do not always feel, that you have treated me more like one of your own family than an ordinary acquaintance; and I trust I shall always retain a grateful recollection of your many instructive conversations, your many useful counsels, many most kind attentions and many actual services. If I do not often speak of them it is because a scrupulous delicacy forbids nor should I now have ventured even upon this frank declaration did I not feel that I am above three hundred miles distance and beyond the reach of your immediate reproof.
I have received from the several gentlemen to whom you were good enough to introduce me the most pleasing and flattering attentions. I have been much gratified in visiting those men whom the country sees fit to place in the first stations of honour, authority and influence; for after all men and women are the objects most interesting to a traveller and most deserving of his curiosity and inquiry. The finest picture is only to be valued as a work of imitation and the most exquisite sculpture in wood or marble can never be put in competition with those figures in clay, which the inspiration of the Almighty Creator has animated, which are susceptible of thought, ratiocination, feeling, and passion, which have the power of speech and action, and which have a history, a character, an influence, <
which are> in their very natured unlimited, imperishable and eternal.
The publick mind in this part of the country is at present most interested on the subject of forming a colony of free blacks on the coast of Africa. I attended merely as a spectator, one of the meetings in the Hall of Congress on this subject; my private opinion, my feelings are wholly opposed to the plan, and I have not the smallest confidence in its success. It is proposed so far as I understand it, to transport as many as can be found to go, to assist them in forming a government or commonwealth for themselves and to furnish them both by land and sea, the protection which their infant state may require; and it is hoped, nay they say confidently expected, that this may open a channel through which all the black population of the country may be expelled from it. In other words, the worst part of this community, the very dregs of society, men without education, without principle, without habits of industry, without economy, ignorant of the arts of life and wholly unskilled in the science of legislation and government, (for this is the best account of that part of them which most complained of and which they most wish to get rid,) are to be cast out upon a barbarous country, exposed to all the miseries of famine and the horrours of anarchy from among themselves and to the depredations, violence, resentments and attacks of the savage natives from without; and these poor creatures are to be encouraged under such desperate circumstances, and I say, deluded, with the promise of subsistence, succor, protection from a country six thousand miles distant; which will never consent without the greatest reluctance and opposition to the expense of such an establishment; which (with the exception of some few individuals who are actuated by a blind and indiscreet benevolence) feels in truth no other interest in the success of the experiment, than what arises from the wish to get rid of the pressure of a very great evil at home; from a government which from the constant changes in its administration, is of all others least able to fulfill its promises of this nature or to say to day what it will do to morrow; and which from the republican character of its institutions is, not prepared or qualified to undertake a system of distant colonization. In my opinion the evil inflicted upon the Africans by this plan supposing it could be begun or undertaken, and which is attempted under a pretence of reparation for the first most atrocious wrongs towards them, would be nearly as inhuman and cruel in its results as the original violence which made them slaves. But I will not trouble you further with my speculations on this subject; since both my speculations and their measures are likely to be equally in vain, because it begins to be found, that say what they will and do what they may, short of actual compulsion, the negroes will not go.—
I reached Philadelphia yesterday on my return. I shall remain here and at New York a few days, and hope to be at home in the course of a fortnight; meaning to take warning by the fate of the great Napoleon in Russia, and not to trust too confidently to the serenity and mildness of the season which has hitherto been so propitious towards me but make good my retreat to my own humble cabin before the ferocity of the winter would oblige me to purchase that security and return at a very heavy expense.
I beg leave to present my best regards to Mrs Adams & your family & with my earnest prayers for the continuance of your lives, health & enjoyment to assure, my dear sir, of the highest respect of your much obliged and grateful servant & friend—
Henry Coleman
MHi: Adams Papers.

"O LORD, God of my salvation;
I cry out day and night before you…
For my soul is full of troubles,
and my life draws near to Sheol."
Psalm 88:1,3
The opening of this psalm, this prayer, strikes me this morning. "O LORD, God of my salvation." The writer begins with this statement of who God is – who he needs God to be in this moment.
I see a similarity to one of my favorite devotions by Charles Spurgeon, in which he focuses on our bringing God's promises before His throne and saying, "Do as Thou hast said."
In a sense, this is the same. The psalmist needs salvation in his circumstances, so he declares to the Lord, "You are my salvation; save me. Do as Thou hast said. Show Yourself to be who You have said You are."
It is a statement of faith. And a reminder to ourselves in the midst of whatever we're facing. A prayer stemming from the very words of God. We are asking, as Moses did, "Please show me Your glory" (Exodus 33:18).
What is your cry this morning?
Who do you need God to be in this moment? How do you need Him to show Himself?
Because He does care enough to do so.
He sees you.
He hears your cry.
He will show Himself to be a fortress – or whatever it is you need.
Because He is the fulfillment of all that you need.
Shepherd. (Psalm 23:1; Ezekiel 34:11-16)
Father. (1 John 3:1)
Provider. (Matthew 6:25-33)
Deliverer. (Psalm 32:7; Psalm 107:13-16)
Healer. (Psalm 103:3; Psalm 107:20; Isaiah 57:18-19)
Hope. (Romans 15:13)
All comfort. (2 Corinthians 1:3-4; Isaiah 51:3)
Salvation. (Psalm 68:19; Isaiah 33:6; 45:21)
Refuge. (Psalm 71:3; Joel 3:16)
Love. (1 John 4:8-10)
Compassion. (Psalm 103:13; Isaiah 49:15-16)
Strength. (Isaiah 41:10)
Victor. (Isaiah 54:16-17; Revelation 5:5,9-10; 19:11-16)
Redeemer. (Isaiah 54:5; Isaiah 43:1)
Immanuel, God with us. (Isaiah 8:10; Isaiah 43:2)
This is who God is. All of these, and more. Whatever it is that you're going through, however you're struggling – know that God will be everything that you need. Fix your eyes on who He is, and ask Him to show you His glory.
"I love you, O LORD, my strength.
The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised,
and I am saved from my enemies."
Psalm 18:1-3

Incident at KL Chess Classic
1 day ago

First, let me tell you how my week was so far: I was so sick these past few days. I had a terrible headache, I'm feeling nauseous, and I'm having stomach cramps. Before you start thinking these are probably signs of being pregnant, let me just say that my period came today (as scheduled). So yeah, I'm feeling a little better now.
As a comeback for the many days I wasn't able to blog, I would like to start a series called: The Abella Adventures. This series will document all of our family trips locally and abroad and will include: travel tips, budget, itinerary, travel finds and more. Moreover, our travel posts shared in other social media platforms like Twitter and Instagram will bear the hashtags: #theabelladventures and #theabellastravelto
Starting The Abella Adventures Series is a continuation of our recent trip to South Korea.
From Jeju Island, we (reluctantly) went back to Seoul. Due to our activities early morning that day (read all about it here), we were already exhausted by the time we arrived at Gimpo Airport. We just wanted to go to our accommodation and sleep. Luckily, our rented apartment is just 20 minutes away by subway from the airport. A review of our Airbnb accommodation will be posted soon.
4pm: At last we arrived at the apartment and were able to catch some Zzzzzzs. By 6pm we need to have dinner so we went out. We took a short detour to Cheonggyecheon Stream which I heard was quite a sight at night. We rode the subway to Gwanghwamun Square but unfortunately took the wrong exit. Good thing, the stream was just a little walk away, so walk we did!
One thing I like about South Korea is that sunsets are at almost 8pm. Look how bright it is at 7pm.
What was once a neglected waterway was transformed into an oasis in the middle of downtown Seoul. The "Spring Tower" and the Candlelight Fountain marks the start of the stream at Cheonggye Plaza.
Although named the Spring tower, it is more like a snail's shell to me. Nonetheless, the structure is a great symbol of modernization and culture.
The fountain is what we came for actually, with its changing colors and beautiful lights at night, it is definitely stunning.
One can enjoy a leisurely stroll along this 11km long stream or simply take a rest, watch some fishes swim or dip your feet in its cool waters. The best part of it is you can do this for free.
There is also a wishing well at the middle of the stream not far from the entrance.
We took a quick family photo under the rainbow lighted bridge.
Crossed the stone steps to the other side. Sorry for the blurred photo. Hubby was in a hurry to cross while I was scrambling to take a picture of them.
The stream passes under 22 bridges before it flows out to Han River. We were able to have a photo in just one of the bridges, though then had dinner.
Too lazy to find something local to eat, we just settled for pizza and then went on our way home.
We went back here a few days after and in the morning to let Kara dip her feet in the water and to see how the view is at daytime. Personally, I think Cheonggyecheon Stream is best visited at night. the view is just so wonderful, with the lights illuminating the beauty of the stream. To be in a haven like this in the middle of a busy city is a breath of fresh air to me.
Next up is the 2nd day of our tour in Seoul: Around Gyeongbokgung Palace dressed in hanbok!

Elina Svitolina
Ukrainian tennis player took another step towards the title in Australia.
Just under an hour it took Elina Svitolina to defeat the 130-th racket of the world Genisoy Alertwall.
Czech tennis player who in Melbourne started in qualifying, was able to execute a back break at the start of the meeting, but in the end took only two more games before the end of the match. Elina has recorded three breaks in the first game and three in the second.
Previously, our player managed to reach the quarterfinal stage of the competition the Grand slams only at Roland Garros (2015, 2017). In addition to Svitolina in the fourth round of the Australian Open played only Alona Bondarenko in 2010.
In the 1/4 final the Ukrainian will meet with the Belgian Elise Mertens (WTA 37), which as Svitolina has already managed to win the title this season. Mertens became the champion in Hobart and in singles and doubles, and Svitolina in the first week of the new year took the title in Brisbane. Thus, the unbeaten run of each of the players in the single category has 9 matches.
Previously Elina and Alice met on the court only once: in the final of a clay tournament in Istanbul last year (6-2, 6-4 in favor of Ukrainka).
The winner of this duel in the semifinals will play with the strongest in the match Caroline Wozniacki (Denmark) and Carla Suarez Navarro (Spain).

Center for Synthetic Biology > Meet the Researchers > Ana Nordberg
Ana Nordberg
Ana Nordberg is a former practicing lawyer with a strong interest in science and technology. Her research concerns primarily Patent Law in the pharmaceutical and health sector. Generaly, Ana Nordberg's interrests extend to the multi-layered and multifaceted intersections between the legal, ethical, social and economic aspects of emerging technologies.
Current research
Identifying legal challenges brought by synthetic biology; possible venues for integrating this emerging technology into the existing legal framework; and suggest alternative innovative approaches if necessary.
The objective is to map potential legal challenges of synthetic biology and debate selected legal issues that show greater practical relevance for the European and Danish synthetic biology community and society at large.
In particular: (a) interrogations concerning the usefulness of the current regulatory framework concerning this emerging technological field; and (b) the use of open innovation solutions or alternative intellectual property rights protection, and how to consolidate and coordinate such models with technology transfer to an industrial setting.
Primary fields of research
- Emerging Technologies Law and regulations
- European Patent Law
- Intellectual Property Law
- Competition Law
- Comparative European and USA Law
Fields of interest
- Nanotechnology, Synthetic Biology, Biotechnology
- Pharmaceutical, Medical and Health Law
- Law and Technology
- Law and Ethics
- Law and Economics
Why did you choose to work with synthetic biology?
I have always been fascinated with science and technology and at the same time painfully aware of the knowledge gap between different areas of science. Interdisciplinarity is necessary. The normative framework, i.e. the laws and rules, must be developed side by side and in close connection with scientific progress.
How would you like your work to be applied?
I hope my work will help shed some light into how to apply existing laws and regulations to emerging technologies. Simultaneously, I try to contribute to general policy debates on how to improve laws and regulations to face the challenges of emerging technologies.
Do you collaborate with other researchers?
I collaborate with several researchers from different disciplines and look forward to expand further my network.
Do you collaborate with industry?
At our Centre we aim to maintain regular contact with stakeholders and lawyers and jurists working in the field. It is very important to us to disseminate our work and debate legal issues with those facing legal challenges first hand, e.g. innovative companies and research institutions, administrative authorities, patients and consumers groups and other interest organizations. In this sense, we organize and participate in different events. See centre homepage here ...>
How do you benefit from your collaborations both within and outside science?
Collaborative work gives me a better understanding of social phenomena and scientific developments and allows me to leave my disciplinary bubble. The contact with new ideas and different perspectives increases my creativity and the ability to think 'outside the box'.
What motivates you in your work?
As a legal scholar, I am able to contribute with analysis, reflection and news ideas to develop and improve the existing set of rules. There is nothing more fun and exciting than constantly learning new things and sharing it with others.
What accomplishment are you most proud of?
I fell my hard work has payed off every time someone has been inspired or benefited from my work in any way. I hope this will be the case with my recent book: Patenting Nanomedicine in Europe: Applying the 'medical methods exception' to emerging technologies (DJØF Publishing, 2017).
When not doing science; how do you like to spend your time?
Outdoor, preferably by the sea. With family, friends, and/or with a good book.

The same happens to me, the game freezes in map change or as soon as the new map starts, also fails to load the graphics even in the customization window (everything looks like plastic) and also it crashed in a bot game that I started on my own, BEFORE the patch everything worked perfectly, never had a crash or anything, now I can't play

Is it possible for you to pay my money back? Because game freezes on every map change for a loooooong time and you haven't solve it yet.
This has stopped happening for me since the new patch.

Testimonies – What people Are Saying About Our Self Defense Training.
"I trained with Anthony Lucas over the years and always learn many great skills in movement and flow. Recently I have been training with Anthony in his Animal Stealth workout program and noticed an improvement in my balance, posture, and faster recovery. Natural movement is a great workout to build functional strength and core. I recommend taking a class with Anthony Lucas and see for yourself". – AK
"I don't feel like I was able to execute the self defense moves but I feel more confident with what kind of the mental capacity to be in & taking advantage of certain motion / space whether standing or on the floor, conserving energy, breathing, relaxing & moving instead of struggling through something. Although I'm physically small, I feel with the right knowledge size might not matter – which makes me feel more confident as a small person. Much more power in breath & relaxation than I thought. In conclusion, the overall result that I learned is the importance of continuing to know yourself – physically, mentally, spiritually & that martial arts is a practice & lifestyle". – MT
"What did I learn from Master Anthony Lucas today at our Martial Arts Class – that Success comes from not having fear to Fail and Fear is total fear – and that to just to go through the process is the first step to get it to become yours and to move through it seamless." – Sal R.
Anthony Lucas is such a great instructor! This combat class was amazing last week thanks to Sal for inviting me. I will be starting lessons again for combat fighting and yoga with this great instructor. FYI this class is great for performers too….. It keeps you focused. I might not look it but I'm a tough girl. – Ronda
Mr. Lucas, I definitely took something from the presentation. I learned a new self-defense technique and I always valued the importance of being able to defend myself. – Cassita
Good morning Sir Anthony Stealth Method Training was great learning how bypassing an opponent's conscious mind going into their sub- conscious mind and controlling the situation have them complying and knowing why is a greater skill to develop in conflict resolution.Thank for sharing and giving me another option to resolve a confrontation. – Folks
I have watched Anthony for years, and seen the development of the Stealth method. Now it is a Unique experience of mind, body and spiritual growth, where you can find something for every one. You will learn something and be able put to use on the way home to protect yourself and, your love ones. As a amateur or a high level practitioner and if you have the opportunity to train with him it's something I would take advantage of now. Much appreciated! – Larry
I had an initial training with Anthony today. It was not at all what I thought it would be. The training was a common sense training. Yes, you must practice. How many times? 10,000. Why? So that it can become common sense. He noted that training for women is different than for men. Physically men are stronger, my words not his, and women multi-task, his words, so they are more adaptable. We have to be and the way in which he, Anthony, teaches self defense, it can be modified to any body type. Thanks, Anthony. – Vee. H.

The County of Simcoe is kicking off Pedal Week on Monday, a campaign aiming to shine a light on strides made in active transportation locally. The campaign features events, themes and promotions each day next week that will celebrate Simcoe County's cycling culture and promote the county's investment in cycling tourism and outdoor recreational opportunities.
"Simcoe County has done a great deal of work over the past few years to develop trails, cycling infrastructure and cycling tourism. We've really positioned ourselves as a cycling mecca for Ontario," said Brendan Matheson, experience development co-ordinator with Tourism Simcoe County. "I think it's important for us to really celebrate all the work we've done and everything we've accomplished."
Cycle Simcoe started in 2013 as a Trillium Project. The goal was to create a cycling tourism strategy county-wide. Matheson said that down the road, he hopes Simcoe County will be seen as a tourism destination for avid cyclists across the globe.
"Absolutely we do," he said. "(The project) was so successful we expanded it. I think that's a sign ... of the potential we have as a county to keep growing cycling tourism. We're starting to see more events come our way."
One of those events is next weekend's mountain bike Canadian Championships at Hardwood Ski and Bike.
Since 2013, the county has provided more than $50,000 to various biking and cycling events throughout the region. This year's event is expected to draw more than 2,000 athletes from across Canada. Using the 2015 Pan Am course, riders will battle for the national title.
Part of the week's celebration will also see the Trails Connecting Communities program highlighted, which has run annually for the past 10 years. This year, $250,000 was set aside to be given to municipalities who applied for the funding to help improve local trails and connectivity.
Ten projects applied for the funding, and all 10 projects were approved at the June 25 county council meeting.
"It's a great program. It's always well-taken by all our municipalities. We really never (have) the problem of not having enough applications to distribute the money," said David Parks, director of planning, development and tourism with the county, with a laugh.
"The strategy is, we'd like all our communities to eventually be linked together so people can pedal around the County of Simcoe in a convenient and safe way," said Parks. "Also, our communities are growing, and there are opportunities for new trails in that vision."
Cycling events are slated all week long.
On Tuesday, the trio bike program will be officially launched at Sunset Village in Collingwood and Georgian Village in Penetanguishene. On Friday, Warbler Way, a new multi-use trail, will be opened to the public which winds through the Simcoe County Museum Tract. Warbler Way is a 3.2-kilometre trail connecting to the Hickling Tract Recreational Trail, The Great Trail (formerly Trans Canada Trail), and the Simcoe County Loop Trail.
Long-term, Matheson said, in addition to promoting to outsiders to enjoy Simcoe County as a tourism destination, the county would also like to see locals taking advantage of the investments being made.
"We want to see more kids biking to school. We want to see more recreational cyclists. It's only going to get more popular, so I think it's important we have safe cycling infrastructure," he said.

Identifying Opportunities to Right Size
The first step in right sizing is to monitor and analyze your current use of services to gain insight into instance performance and usage patterns. To gather sufficient data, observe performance over at least a two-week period (ideally, over a one-month period) to capture the workload and business peak. The most common metrics that define instance performance are vCPU utilization, memory utilization, network utilization, and ephemeral disk use. In rare cases where instances are selected for reasons other than these metrics, it is important for the technical owner to review the right-sizing effort.
Tools for Right Sizing
You can use the following tools to evaluate costs and monitor and analyze instance usage for right sizing:
Amazon CloudWatch – Lets you observe CPU utilization, network throughput, and disk I/O, and match the observed peak metrics to a new and cheaper instance type. You can also regularly monitor Amazon EC2 Usage Reports, which are updated several times a day and provide in-depth usage data for all your EC2 instances. Typically, this is feasible only for small environments given the time and effort required.
AWS Cost Optimization: EC2 Right Sizing – This is an automated reference deployment that analyzes two weeks of Amazon EC2 utilization data and provides detailed right-sizing recommendations to meet the current demand, while reducing the overall cost to run the workload. The cost to run EC2 Right Sizing using the default settings is approximately $0.65 per hour, which reflects Amazon Redshift and Amazon EC2 charges.
Note: EC2 Right Sizing can be used only in regions where AWS Lambda is available and cannot be used to analyze instance usage in linked accounts.
AWS Cost Explorer – This free tool lets you dive deeper into your cost and usage data to identify trends, pinpoint cost drivers, and detect anomalies. It includes Amazon EC2 Usage Reports, which let you analyze the cost and usage of your EC2 instances over the last 13 months.
AWS Trusted Advisor – Lets you inspect your AWS environment to identify idle and underutilized resources and provides real-time insight into service usage to help you improve system performance and reliability, increase security, and look for opportunities to save money.
Third-party monitoring tools, such as CloudHealth, Cloudability, and CloudCheckr, are also an option to automatically identify opportunities and suggest alternate instances. These tools have years of development effort and customer feedback points built into them. They also provide additional cost management and optimization functionality.
Tips for Developing Your Own Right-Sizing Tools
You can also develop your own tools for monitoring and analyzing performance. The following guidelines can help if you are considering this option:
Focus on instances that have run for at least half the time you're looking at.
Focus on instances with lower Reserved Instance coverage.
Exclude resources that have been switched off (reducing search effort).
Avoid conversions to older-generation instances, where possible.
Apply a savings threshold below which right sizing is not worth considering.
Make sure the following conditions are met before you switch to a new instance:
The vCPU of the new instance is equal to that of the old instance or the application's observed vCPU is less than 80% of the vCPU capacity of the new instance.
The memory of the new instance is equal to that of the old instance or the application's observed memory peak is less than 80% of the memory capacity of the new instance.
Note: You can capture memory utilization metrics by using monitoring scripts that report these metrics to Amazon CloudWatch. For more information, see Monitoring Memory and Disk Metrics for Amazon EC2 Linux Instances.
The network throughput of the new instance is equal to that of the old instance or the application's network peak is less than the network capacity of the new instance.
Note: Maximum NetworkIn and NetworkOut values are measured in bytes-per-minute. Use the following formula to convert these metrics to megabits per second:
Maximum NetworkIn (or NetworkOut) x 8 (bytes to bits) /1024/1024/ 60 = Number of Mbps
If the ephemeral storage disk I/O is less than 3,000, you can use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) storage. If not, use instance families that have ephemeral storage. For more information, see Amazon EBS Volume Types.

TULSA, Okla. – Prosecutors say a 16-year-old who is accused of murdering a teacher in front of his wife and children is facing dozens of charges.
On Oct. 1, Tulsa police say 44-year-old Shane Anderson was shot and killed by 16-year-old Deonte Green in front of his wife and children inside their home.
Investigators say Green had already robbed and sexually assaulted an elderly woman in the hours before he found Anderson's wife and two daughters outside their house.
Green allegedly forced Anderson's wife and two daughter back inside their home but did not know that Shane Anderson was already inside the house.
"The husband fought with Green, and Green shot the husband," Sgt. Dave Walker, with the Tulsa Police Department, said in a statement. "The husband continued to struggle with Green before collapsing inside the house."
Sadly, Anderson died inside his home.
The crime spree wasn't Green's first run-in with the law, but officials say it was the most violent.
New reports state that Green was arrested and released for property crimes just days before allegedly killing the teacher.
A Tulsa police official told the Tulsa World that the teen was mistakenly released due to a breakdown in communication at the time of his arrest for property crimes.
Just days before Anderson's murder, Green was arrested and booked into the Tulsa County Jail as a youthful offender for second-degree burglary, knowingly concealing stolen property, tampering with a surveillance system and malicious injury to property.
"It does appear that the more serious crimes are being committed by individuals who are younger than they were just 11 years ago," Eric Grayless, Tulsa County Assistant District Attorney, told FOX 23.
Green was given probation for his previous crimes, even though he was considered to be at high-risk to become a repeat offender.
Green is now facing 26 charges related to the crime spree.

Defined Benefit Pension Transfer
A client contacted Wealth of Advice in order to seek advice in respect of the accumulated pension benefits that he had built up within two different pension schemes.
He had recently been made redundant and wanted to consider his retirement plans.
The Challenges
The client came to us with two pension funds, one was a personal pension and the other a defined benefit pension. He was seeking advice regarding both pensions and his retirement options.
As he had recently been made redundant, he wanted to ensure that he was in control of his pensions and that he could bridge the gap financially until he retired.
What We Did
During our initial meetings, the client explained that he had already received a forecast for his defined benefit pension, for his annual income. We requested a Cash Equivalent Transfer Value and discussed with the client, the advantages and disadvantages of transferring his fund as well as the implications of breaching his lifetime allowance.
The client decided to leave his defined benefit pension benefits within the scheme, as he was happy with the forecasted annual income that it would guarantee him. He also felt that the scheme was the most safe and secure option for him. His attitude to risk and capacity for loss were both factors which we agreed meant that he would not be comfortable with such a transfer.
We discussed his options in respect of accessing his personal pension fund. The client explained that he had no need for a fixed income from an annuity as he would be receiving an income from his defined benefit pension. He planned to deplete his entire personal pension fund before he reached retirement age as he would then be in receipt of his defined benefit fund and would become a higher rate tax-payer.
He therefore planned to use his personal pension to supplement his income until he retired. We recommended that he transfer his personal pension to a Flexi-access Drawdown pension plan.
The Results
We transferred the client's personal pension to a Flexi-Access Drawdown pension plan. This meant that he could take 25% of the fund value as tax-free cash and could use this to clear any outstanding debts and become more financially secure.
The remainder of his fund can now be used to supplement his income, we reviewed how much income he could receive in order to be within the basic rate tax threshold and to ensure that the fund is depleted before he reaches retirement age.
This has allowed the client to bridge the gap financially between now and his normal age of retirement. The death benefits of this scheme mean that his wife and family will be provided for in the event of his death.

Hello, there!
My name is Misty, and this is my first post on Send the Light. I apologize for taking so long to do so. 😉
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. Praise the Lord! He is risen! ❤
For today's post, I want to talk about some pointers for when life gets hard. Of course, you can't deny the fact that it does. Everyone has problems, everyone makes mistakes, everyone has regrets, and everyone has questions. Jesus didn't try to cover up reality. He plainly told us in John 16:33, "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world." We will have tribulation, but we can find peace and joy in Jesus Christ, who has already overcome this world.
God is bigger than any "Goliath" who comes knocking at your door.
I know you have doubts, and I know you have questions. But for once, set those questions aside, and ask yourself the most important question of all:
Who is Jesus?
Once you answer that question, all your other doubts should instantly shrink so much smaller. In fact, you cannot be saved until you answer that question. For an example:
Why is God letting this happen to me?
Well, if Jesus is who He says He is, then I guess He always has a reason, right? If Jesus is who He says He is, then He can surely use the evil things of this world for his good purposes, can't He? If Jesus is who He says He is, then He is fully trustworthy, and you can put your trust in Him and hand Him your troubles when tough times come your way.
Always remember that question, and never forget the answer. When doubts beat you to the ground, remember to push those to the side and ask that question, "Who is Jesus?" The answer can make a huge difference.
Besides, why worry if the Jesus living in your heart is the Almighty God of the universe? The Jesus who died for you?
Last of all, when times get rough, don't forget to pray. Prayer is so powerful!! I've seen it in my own life, and I've seen it in others' lives. Don't face the day until you've faced God in prayer. When you're feeling beat down and overwhelmed, go to God. Fall on your knees and just talk to Him. Ask Him to fill you with peace. If you're sincere, the Holy Spirit will flood you with such an amazing peace, even in the midst of all the chaos of this world.
To close this post, here's some encouraging bible verses!

PAM POSTEMA, the veteran Class AAA umpire, is gone. She received her walking papers in November after major league baseball decided her 13-season apprenticeship showed insufficient ground for making her the first female major league umpire.
Postema's departure leaves Theresa Cox as the only woman among 202 umpiring aspirants.
''I can't hide that I'm a woman, and because of it I'm under a microscope,'' Cox said. ''But it's hard to find the right stuff for the major leagues, and I believe I've got it.''
Cox, a 29-year-old Ohioan who drives a United Parcel Service delivery truck in Birmingham, Ala., to make ends meet (Postema has also worked for U.P.S.), successfully completed her rookie season in the Arizona State League and will return to duty next spring.
She said she was ready for anything but would not know until February whether her eight games as a Class AA substitute would qualify her for a promotion.
Cox, whose blustery manner cowed several managers who tried to undermine her calls by making remarks about her being female, is undeterred by the setback dealt to Postema, whom she has never met.
''I didn't decide to try umpiring because of her,'' Cox said last week. ''That just came into my head out of the blue. But once I started, I wanted to be like her. That's why I got my job driving the U.P.S. truck.
''And I'd had dreams about someday working a World Series with Pam. I don't know why they let her go. As I was driving my truck this week, I thought, 'Gee, right now she's probably driving around in her truck, too, but she must be sad.' I'd been pulling for her to be the first.''
Last spring, Cox graduated fifth in a class of 180 at Harry Wendelstedt's Florida umpiring school. And she was one of just 25 from that group offered jobs in the farm system.
''I think it's a God-given talent,'' she said. ''You're abused even when you get the call right, which is 99 percent of the time. So you have to have an inner toughness. I'm a person you can count on to run a game and not be temperamental.
''I have my principles. In my first game, I walked 22 batters until they finally found my strike zone.''
Cox said Postema's trailblazing undoubtedly made her own path a little less thorny.
''What she went through has made it easier for me, and if it's not me who's the first woman ump, then maybe I'll make it easier for somebody who follows after me,'' Cox said. ''But we have to keep trying. It's like life, either you evolve or you die out.''

The provincial government is providing $215,500 to two organizations to help control the spread of invasive plants.
The Cariboo Regional District is receiving $209,000. The Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee is receiving $6,500.
These are two of 31 grants, totalling $1,727,000, that are being distributed throughout the province in 2016 to local governments, regional invasive species committees and the Invasive Species Council of B.C. This funding will be used to help raise public awareness of invasive plant concerns, survey invasive plant populations and actively treat high-priority sites to control the spread of these destructive plants.
This funding is in addition to the $935,000 already allocated by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations for invasive plant control and management in 2016-17.
Invasive plants are species that have been introduced into British Columbia from other areas. They displace native vegetation and can cause considerable economic and environmental damage. Some pose a health risk to people (e.g. skin irritation). Invasive plants can also disrupt natural ecosystems, reduce biodiversity, increase soil erosion, alter soil chemistry and adversely affect commercial crops.
"Invasive species cause harm and we don't want them to impact our regional economy," Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett said. "These investments will help the Cariboo Regional District and the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee reduce the threat that invasive species pose."
"This funding will help the Cariboo Regional District and the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee minimize the risk that invasive species can cause to our industries here in the Cariboo," Cariboo North MLA Coralee Oakes said.
The provincial Invasive Plant Program identifies sites where new invasive plant species have been found and responds rapidly to contain and eradicate them before they become established and start spreading.
Currently, some of the targeted invasive plant species in B.C. are marsh plume thistle, European common reed, garlic mustard, knotweed, Spartina, orange and yellow (non-native) hawkweeds, knapweed, giant hogweed, blueweed, common tansy, tansy ragwort, hoary alyssum, field scabious, leafy spurge, purple loosestrife, yellow flag iris, Himalayan balsam and Scotch broom.

Nate's Monday Morning Message
Nate's Monday Morning Message
"If you don't drive your business, you will be driven out of business." – BC Forbes
Welcome to Nate's Monday Morning Message! As a business owner, this quote rings true for me, but I can also apply it to many areas of my life outside of running RE/MAX Professionals. It speaks to the importance of knowing what you want out of life…to be clear about your goals, ambitions, passions. And if you own a business, to have a written plan of action, which supports the goals of the company. If you don't have a direction or a plan, you will end up floundering or worse, following someone else's plan (or in other words, driven out of business). This week I encourage you to spend some time working on your plan for 2017. Opportunities await you, and now is the time to take action. Let's make it a great week!
One day a small gap appeared in the cocoon, through which the butterfly had to appear. A boy, who accidentally passed by, stopped and watched how the butterfly was trying to get out of the cocoon. It took a lot of time, the butterfly was trying very hard, and the gap was as little as before. It seemed that the power would leave the butterfly soon.
The boy decided to help the butterfly. He took a penknife and cut the cocoon. The butterfly immediately got out, but its body was weak and feeble, and the wings were barely moving.
The boy continued to watch the butterfly, thinking that now its wings would spread and its would fly. However, that did not happen.
The rest of its life the butterfly had to drag its weak body and wings that weren't spread. It was unable to fly, because the boy did not realize that an effort to enter through the narrow gap of the cocoon was necessary for the butterfly, so that the life-giving fluid would move from the body to the butterfly's wings and that the butterfly could fly. Life forced the butterfly to leave its shell hardly, so that it would become stronger and would be able to grow and develop.
If we were allowed to live without meeting difficulties, we would not be viable. Life gives us challenges to make us stronger.
