The Queen honours Jaguar Land Rover with international trade award
Jaguar Land Rover's booming overseas sales have won it a top international prize – from no other than Her Majesty The Queen herself.
The firm has been awarded the 2014 Queen's Award for Enterprise in International Trade, for growing sales to 425,006 vehicles in 2013 – and exporting 80% of them out of the UK.
JLR's sales grew 19% in 2013 alone and its now generates 85% of its revenue from exports. Vehicles are sent to more than 170 countries and sold by 2,520 worldwide dealers.
This sales growth has also helped the firm create 11,000 new jobs over the past three years – with an estimated 24,000 additional positions in the supply chain.
The Queen's Award was presented at the firm's HQ in Whitley, by Her Majesty's Lord-Lieutenant of West Midlands, Paul Chandrasekharan Sabapathy CBE. It was received by JLR CEO Dr. Ralf Speth, chairman emeritus of Tata Ratan Tata and Tata Group chairman Cyrus Mistry.
Dr. Speth said: "Jaguar Land Rover is delighted and honoured to receive recognition of its contribution to British enterprise and I am privileged to accept this award on behalf of our 30,000 employees.
"The Queen's Award is one of the most important awards for British businesses. We are extremely proud that our positive contribution to society and to the growth of the UK economy has enabled us to achieve this."
This is the first time Jaguar Land Rover has won a Queen's Award – however, each brand has won six times between 1967 and 2009.

Knowledge is a powerful thing, and I've always believed sharing might improve someone else's life. Thus the reason for this blog is to share what I've learned over the years about fitness, health, and veganism. I'm also a writer and when the mood hits me a story or two may populate my pages.
I'm a New Yorker since the age of nine. A work in progress, I'm forever changing to become the true me. I've spent many years in the Financial Services Industry, acquired all the credentials, MBA in Finance and several licenses, to boost my career. But a new consciousness is pushing through allowing me to trail other facets of my personality. We all have some inkling of our true selves when we are children. I did. I have the soul and mind of an artist. Professionally trained as a dancer, athletically gifted, I've never left that side of me, just channeled my talent to other areas.
The dancer in me is forever yearning to move. I've channeled that thirst into fitness. I hung up my ballet slippers for a pair of running shoes and became a fitness enthusiast. I've challenged my body and completed ten marathons, domestic and international, and countless races.
I can't start my day without a sweaty run, and thirty minutes or more of stretching my muscles beyond limits with yoga.I live a lifestyle of health and fitness – a vegan for many years, but I have my foibles- coffee. I can't start my day without a steaming cup in my hand.
I've been an avid reader and writer of literature for years. I've written three novels, By Chance, Chasing Victoria, Kalorama Road, and three supernatural short stories, Ravine Lereux, The Playground, and Rebound. Writing has been a challenge, and like a marathon it takes preparation and mental tenacity to complete the journey.
My books, published by Creativia Publishing, are available at Amazon.com.

Utah National Guard
Aug 27, 2019
The Utah National Guard and what does it consist of? If they wear US Army and US Air Force uniforms, why is their Commander in Chief the Governor and not the President? We used to call them Weekend Warriors and they were known more for their card games and beer drinking than being able to support our military in combat. The last 30 years of domestic and international crises has changed the nature and role of your National Guard in its role in the state and in support of our military. COL Paul Peters, the Operations Officer for the Utah Army National Guard, will give us glimpse into what your Utah National Guard consists of today, what their last 20 years have been about and how they are still being heavily used around the world to support any and all military operations, as well as advance military and diplomatic relations with the country of Morocco.

Make a Wish Foundation
Nov 05, 2019
When life-changing wishes are granted, a wish effect occurs. The wish allows children battling critical illnesses to build the hope and strength they need to fight harder and see the impossible become possible. Research shows wishes can give these children a higher chance of survival. And, it's why health professionals often use a wish as part of their treatment plan, because wishes can build compliance with care and potentially give their patients a better chance of reducing time spent in the hospital. There is nothing more powerful than a child's wish – that's the wish effect.
Utah Politics: The Elephant in the Room
Nov 12, 2019
From the tempestuous fight for statehood to the evolution of Utah voters from Democrats to Republicans, Rod Decker analyzes the intersection of politics and faith in the complex political culture of modern Utah. Beginning with the state's roots as a communal theocracy, Utah Politics deftly examines how Mormon morality influenced and continues to shape conflicts on both the local and federal levels. Whether determining the role nuclear fallout played in causing cancer epidemics throughout the state or the influence of Mormon lobbyists, Decker demonstrates how the rose that blossomed in the desert was sometimes fertilized by conspiracy, debate, and political machination. Some themes reoccur: governors become popular by fighting federal oversight—signaling a lingering distrust that Washington could alter the Mormon way of life—and liberals use the court system to circumvent conservative legislatures who see public morality as a defining feature of government.

Great moments occur every single week within the world of professional wrestling, and as fans, we wouldn't have it any other way. From high flying spots to dramatic heel turns, people who don't know or appreciate this business will never truly grasp what it feels like to become truly invested in a piece of wrestling brilliance.
Unfortunately, with the good always comes the bad, and when it comes to the WWE they've certainly had a few stinkers over the course of their long and 'illustrious' history. Some of those have been created by the company themselves, meanwhile, other botches and fails are entirely down to the performers involved.
While we may have only listed 20 in the following list, we certainly could've expanded upon it had we dug deep enough. Still, there's plenty of material to work with here from the downright ugly to the outright amusing.
So, whether you're a cynic or a comic, there should be something for all the family.
20 Mark Henry's World Strongest "Push"
In the blue corner, you've got one of the most successful superstars to have ever come out of the WWE system – Batista. In the red corner, you've got Mark Henry, a guy who worked his ass off for years and years before finally reaching the mountain top and becoming World Heavyweight Champion back in 2011.
So what do you get when you throw the two of them together? Well, apparently, utter bedlam. As you can see in the following clip, Batista took it upon himself to oversell a push from Henry to the point where it honestly looked like an unknown entity or force of nature had thrown him halfway across the ring. Perhaps Mark really is the World's Strongest Man after all. Then again, probably not.
19 Sin Cara's Debut Entrance
In the present day, many fans will know Sin Cara for being a rock solid mid-carder on SmackDown Live, who represents the Lucha style of wrestling fairly adequately. Some fans, however, who have been watching since way back in 2011, will recall the debut of a man who was tipped to be the next big thing in the WWE.
It goes without saying that he failed, and from his very first appearance the man formerly known as Mistico gave us a taste of what was to come. He managed to botch his entrance on his way down to the ring, which caused a snowball effect that plagued the remainder of his tenure with the company. Thankfully, Hunico has restored some kind of dignity to the role as of late.
18 Sid Has Half A Brain
Sycho Sid, aka Sid Vicious, aka just Sid, has always been and will always be one of the most underrated main event performers in all of professional wrestling. His in-ring work was stellar, his look was incredibly intimidating, and he could tell a good story if and when he so desired. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case in this particular entry.
During an interview with Gene Okerlund, Sid managed to botch one of his lines and asked whether or not he could start over. Alas, the promo was being shown live to the viewing audience both in the arena and around the globe, meaning that there was nowhere to hide for the former WWE champion.
It's harsh to shine a light on this kind of thing, but it's also quite amusing.
17 Lucha Things
From the moment Kalisto hit a death-defying Salida Del Sol from the top of a ladder at TLC 2015, thousands upon thousands of WWE Universe members were pinpointing him to be the next Rey Mysterio. Within a few months he managed to capture the United States Championship, and from then on, it seemed like his career would continue to go from strength to strength.
But that isn't always how things work out in the WWE because as we all know far too well, one mistake can cause a ripple effect that completely halts your momentum. In Kalisto's case, his unfortunate moment came during a bizarre backstage promo in which he completely fumbled his lines.
He's not too far gone, but this was still pretty bad.
16 Cena's Nose
There's a reason why John Cena has been at the top of the card for so long now: because he's one of the most resilient and determined individuals in the history of this business. From injuries to a tireless travel schedule the man never gives up (pun not intended), and there's no better example of that than with this match against Seth Rollins from 2015.
Cena was on the run of his life courtesy of the United States Championship Open Challenge, and in a moment of madness, Rollins broke John's nose in a way that few could argue was completely gruesome to watch. But, despite this, the 16-time world champion carried on and actually managed to finish the match. What a guy.
Moral of the story: don't mess with the best.
15 Orton Forgets His Line
The Raw after WrestleMania is always known for being one of the craziest shows of the year, and back in 2013, things were turned up to a whole new level. The crowd in attendance at the IZOD Center were already giving Sheamus and Randy a hard time, and it appears as if they were so influential that they caused The Viper to forget the lines to his promo.
At one point you can actually see Orton lean in and ask The Celtic Warrior what his next line was, and from that point on things just continued to spiral out of control. The fans knew that something was wrong and they capitalised on that, going on to completely ruin a match between the two former world champions.
14 The Chair Shots
The Rock is without a doubt one of the most influential performers to ever step foot inside the squared circle. Mankind, on the other hand, also known as Mick Foley, is probably one of the most inspirational performers in the history of World Wrestling Entertainment. When you merge the two together, you get magic – well, more often than not.
The place was Anaheim, California and the match was The Rock vs Mankind in an I Quit bout for the WWE Championship. As seen in the Beyond The Mat documentary things went pear-shaped in a hurry, with Rocky nailing Mick with chair shot after chair shot to the unprotected skull of The Hardcore Legend. To this day it's one of the most cringe-worthy matches of all time, and it was certainly not meant to be that way.
13 Joey Mercury's Face
Joey Mercury seems like one of the good guys within the wrestling business, but back in the day things were a little different. Joey admitted to having had a drug problem which caused several issues for him both personally and professionally, and the root of those problems originated from the following moment that changed Joey's life forever.
During a match between MNM and The Hardy Boyz, Matt and Jeff attempted a stunt which would see them slingshot a ladder into the faces of Johnny Nitro and Mercury. As you can see things went very, very wrong, with Mercury being busted open so hard that he almost went completely blind in one eye.
This is the definition of 'don't try this at home', and it always will be.
12 Paige's Title Win
We'll keep on the topic of Raw after WrestleMania moments, but this time we'll fast forward twelve months to New Orleans. AJ Lee had just retained her Divas Championship against all the odds at the Superdome, and the following night saw her cut a promo in which she claimed that no woman on the roster could touch her.
Cue the debut of NXT superstar Paige, which sent the crowd into a complete frenzy. The newbie wound up facing AJ that very same night in a bout for the title, in what should've been a headline-making moment for her. In one sense it was, but in another, the finish to the match was completely botched.
We probably won't be seeing any replays of it on the WWE Network anytime soon.
11 Roman's Tombstone
We fast forward now to WrestleMania 33, where Roman Reigns challenged The Undertaker in a match that would determine who was the biggest dog in the yard. Or, something like that. The main event showdown was plodding along nicely for around 10-15 minutes until suddenly, everything got a little bit awkward.
Roman attempted to reverse a Tombstone Piledriver attempt by Taker and in the process, actually wound up dropping the Deadman as he was unable to lift him. It was one of the most painful sights of the night, and that's saying something when you consider that Bray Wyatt also produced a PowerPoint presentation in the middle of his WWE Championship match against Randy Orton.
Still, at least the best man won at the end of the night, right? Right?
10 Hogan Can't Take A Chokeslam
Sticking with the legendary Phenom, we turn to a moment that never should've even been given the chance to exist. The year was 2002 and Hulk Hogan was in the midst of a reunion tour that saw him once again win the WWE Championship, against the wishes of around 95% of the WWE Universe. Still, nostalgia is always good for a pop or two, I guess.
He would end up losing the strap to The Undertaker in what was a relatively underwhelming contest, but aside from that, it also showed just how old Hogan was at the time. As you can see in the following clip, Taker slowly lifts Hulk up for a chokeslam before gently lowering him back down to the canvas. Painful stuff.
9 Rollins' Knee
Some would call this next entry karma, but we'd just call it an extremely unfortunate case of bad luck. With Seth Rollins being more than six months deep into his run as WWE World Heavyweight Champion, it seemed as if nothing could stop The Architect from carving out one of the longest world title reigns of the last 25 years.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it was all over. During a house show match in Dublin against Kane, Seth went for a move that he'd executed perfectly hundreds of times; at which point, his knee completely broke down. It robbed Rollins of an appearance at WrestleMania 32, which was particularly excruciating given how hard he'd worked to get there.
At least he managed to avenge his demons in Orlando.
8 The Silverdome
We love Hulk Hogan for a multitude of reasons, but as the years have gone on, it's become harder and harder to separate Hulk the performer from Hulk the man. His many issues stemming from his personal life have plagued the pro wrestling world as of late, and because of that, we're choosing to look at a slightly more light-hearted moment from back in 2014.
Hogan was the host of WrestleMania 30, with one of his duties being to open the show in front of a partisan New Orleans crowd. Things were going pretty well, right up until the point where he called the Mercedes-Benz Superdome the Silverdome – twice. Some conspiracy theorists have claimed that WWE asked him to do this on purpose, but come on, he's not that good of an actor.
7 We Comin' For You
Booker T has got to be one of the most infuriating commentators of all time, and we're including some of the worst of the worst on that list. It's a shame, really, because many young fans won't remember some of Booker's early work back in WCW. In those days, the former member of the Harlem Heat was a star in the making.
That was, aside from this promo. It's been repeated and repeated time after time ever since it initially took place, and to be honest, we aren't all too surprised about that. If you don't know the story by now then turn up the volume on either your phone or laptop, sit back, and listen to one of the most hilarious botches of all time.
6 Orton's Collarbone
Randy Orton has always been quite unlucky when it comes to injuries, especially seeing as most of them have actually happened during a match. The Apex Predator is known for being one of the safest and most efficient workers of the last few decades, but unfortunately, sometimes accidents are just unavoidable in this business.
Which, as you can tell, was the case during this match with Triple H back at Extreme Rules. The Game dumped Orton over the top rope, at which point Randy landed hard on the floor below and broke his collarbone. It was obvious from the word go that something was very, very wrong, and we can only imagine how guilty The King of Kings felt about the whole thing. Poor Randy.
5 The Rumble Botch
Back in 2005, it was clear to see that a new era was on the horizon for World Wrestling Entertainment. The likes of Randy Orton, Batista and John Cena were all coming through the ranks, and it was only a matter of time before all three of them exploded into the main event picture and carried the company forward for years to come.
One of the crowning moments of that time period came during the final stages of the 2005 Royal Rumble, and funnily enough, the whole thing was botched from start to finish. First Batista and Cena accidentally eliminated each other at the same time, and then Vince McMahon tore both of his quads as he angrily entered the ring.
In short, it was beautiful to watch.
4 Brock Destroys Hardcore Holly
Brock Lesnar isn't someone you want to annoy, either in the ring or outside of it. As a former NCAA and UFC champion his credentials are there for everyone to see, and yet, there were many rumours back in the day that suggested Lesnar had some kind of a beef with none other than Hardcore Holly.
It was quite a random story at the time and still is to this day, with both men claiming that the whole thing wasn't true. Whichever way you look at it, nobody can deny that the following clip of Brock dropping Holly square on his head is one of the most uncomfortable viewing experiences out of everything we've seen on this list.
Disclaimer: this is what happens when you sandbag The Beast.
3 The Neck Break
Stone Cold Steve Austin was in the midst of his rocket push to the top of the card in the summer of 1997, and as such, he was involved in a relatively high profile match against Owen Hart at the biggest party of the summer. It was set to be one of the show stealers of the night in East Rutherford, but of course, that wasn't the case.
Instead, Hart hit Austin with a piledriver that would change not only the trajectory of his career – but of his entire life. Not only was Stone Cold briefly paralysed, but he also broke his neck which would cause him to completely alter his in-ring style. Some would argue that it was a blessing in disguise, but at the time, it was the definition of a truly terrifying incident.
2 Shooting Star Press
When you're as physically imposing as Brock Lesnar is, nine times out of ten you don't even need to try that hard in order to make a good match seem great. When it comes to the main event of WrestleMania, however, it doesn't matter who you are – because if you don't go the extra mile then your entire legacy could be affected from that point on.
That, in itself, is probably one of the reasons why The Beast Incarnate decided to attempt one of the most stunning feats in the show's illustrious history: a shooting star press from the top rope. As we all now know things didn't turn out so well for Brock, and what was supposed to be a career-defining move turned out to be an extremely worrying botch.
1 The Camera Man
We round things off with one of the greatest matches of all time, which took place back at WrestleMania XXV in Houston. It was contested between Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker who, at the time, were both quite frustrated by their placement on the WM25 card. So what did they decide to do? In short, they went out there and tore the house down.
But not even the grandest stage of them all is immune to botches, with Taker doing a dive to the outside which caused him to fall directly onto his head on the outside. Apparently, this was due to a fault by the 'cameraman', who was actually a trained pro wrestler who was supposed to catch The Phenom's fall.
Needless to say, he was released soon after the incident.

Kenya's Supreme Court has nullified the result of the August 8 presidential election won by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
In a ruling issued on Friday, the court said the electoral board committed "irregularities and illegalities" during last month's vote, harming the integrity of the election.
The court ordered another presidential election to be held within 60 days.
"The declaration [of Kenyatta's win] is invalid, null and void," said Judge David Maraga, announcing the verdict of four out of the six judges.
No Kenya presidential election has ever before been nullified.
Maraga said the election commission "failed, neglected or refused to conduct the presidential election in a manner consistent with the dictates of the constitution".
A lawyer for Kenyatta, Ahmednasir Abdullahi, said the decision was "very political" and the election board had "done nothing wrong". But he said the decision had to be respected.
After the ruling was announced, opposition presidential candidate Raila Odinga said: "This is a historic day for the people of Kenya and by extension for the people of the continent of Africa."
Mr Odinga added that he had "no faith at all in the electoral commission as currently constituted" and called for the prosecution of its members..

Something of a gap between reports here is a consequence of project conclusions and the twist of fresh activity gaining momentum.
The catalogue of active, sidelined and recently concluded work stretches out over a 5 year block which culminated at this financial year end in April with exhibition of DDBC alongside the other five Collusion commissioned artist projects, on the square outside Cambridge Junction.
This month we will pen the first in a series of project development funding applications with CSM's 3D staff, to explore Digital Markers – autonomous media repositories and community archives, that draw on the rich experiences of ; 'Distributed Spaces' research and action in Sao Paulo, studio practice development with 3D students and the MaziZone EU consortium product.
Several threads of the Mazi pilot in Deptford Creekside continue to express the enthusiasm of local awareness and homespun enterprise. Aside from scandal of air pollution at record levels throughout the area, there is little awareness of other environmental conditions. We have been engulfed in an electrosmog of security, signalling, telecom and IOT microwave communications. SDRF is a small group working to innovate wideband RF mapping for the SE8 area to generate a foundation of data for the public record that monitors relative power and interference of use.
At the CDC slipway a temperature array already records the ebb and flow of the tidal creek. We seek an expansion of this installation to monitor the composition and contamination of the water sources and effect of the tidal cycle on aquatic and plant life. Using a low tech process of spectroscopy a stream of river water can be continually assessed using optical scanning and image matching.

Researchers identify the inner workings of cellular calcium pumps
For the first time, researchers have observed the ion pumps that activate cell transport and signal systems. This ensures the function of biomolecular mechanisms.
Each calcium pump measures only a few nanometres in each direction, and resides in the cell membranes. But despite its diminutive size, it is crucial to life. This pump is the reason that our muscles can contract, and that neurons can send signals. If the tiny pump stopped working, cells would stop communicating. This is why cells use so much of their energy – about a fourth of the body's fuel, known as ATP – to keep the pumps running.
There are many things that we still do not know about the structure and function of this vital pump. Knowledge about the pump is essential to understand energy balance and other important functions in the body.
A Danish research group has just published a new study that for the first time shows how the pump functions at the level of a single molecule, and how it ensures that ions are pumped in the right direction. In other words, how the pump works as a molecular one-way street. The discovery has just been published in the prestigious journal Nature.
"This work represents the next step of a profound and important quest to understand the pump's atomic structure and function. We are now one step closer to understanding how the ion pumps ensure the functions of the cells. We have characterised how it pumps ions out of the cell at an unprecedented level of detail. The importance of such basic knowledge of biophysical processes can only be underestimated. It will have a great influence on our understanding of the processes of life and, in time, on disease treatment," says Professor Poul Nissen. Professor Nissen is one of the world's leading experts on this family of pumps and a co-author of the paper.
The molecular backstop
To some extent, the story began in the 1950s, when Professor Jens Christian Skou did his pioneering work at Aarhus University, which uncovered the pumping functions in our cells. The calcium pump is a close cousin of the sodium-potassium pump Skou worked on, and they use a similar pumping mechanism. Skou's work earned him a Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1997. Since then, numerous researchers have studied the mechanism and function of these pumps, including many at the Centre for Membrane Pumps in Cells and Disease – PUMPkin – at Aarhus University.
A key insight in the new publication concerns the one-way nature of ion transport. Previously, it was assumed that the one-way nature of the pump arose in the cleavage of the energy-rich molecule ATP. The hypothesis was that when ATP was cleaved, the pump could not backtrack and reform ATP. That turned out to be incorrect.
"We have identified a new closed state in the pumping cycle, which the pump can only enter if the calcium ion comes from the intracellular fluids and the pump has cleaved ATP. It cannot reach this state if the ion comes from the cell's surroundings. When calcium is released from this state, it is the 'point of no return.' This is the mechanism that explains that the pump works as a pump and not just a passive channel. This really unique insight is based on highly advanced experiments. These experiments enable us to directly see the pump doing its job for the first time," says Postdoctoral Fellow Mateusz Dyla, the first author of the new paper.
The calcium pump needs energy, which it gets from cleaving a molecule of ATP. The energy released is converted into the work of the pump. This explains how large concentration gradients build up between the inside and the outside of the cell. The concentration difference can be more than 10,000-fold, and this large difference is essential to the communication between cells such as in nerve signaling.
Smoke and mirrors
The reason the experiments are so complex is pretty clear. The pump is so small that it cannot be imaged directly in a light microscope. So far, and with great difficulty, researchers have created molecular models of stable states of the pump using a technique known as X-ray crystallography. This is analogous to a stop-motion movie. The scientists have jokingly referred to their visualisation of the pump's movement between these states as 'Pump Fiction.' The new study, which has been five years in the making, moves the visualisation from stop motion to live images of the functional movements of the pump. Technical improvement in microscopic techniques has allowed the new state to be observed.
The technique is known as single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy, and uses a phenomenon known as Förster resonance energy transfer, in short FRET. Here, intense laser light and ultra-sensitive cameras are combined to allow the direct observation of a single molecule through the tiny amount of light each molecule emits.
The research group has taken advantage of a calcium pump from the bacterium Listeria, which was prepared for the studies through protein engineering. The engineering of the protein alone took several years to complete.
In the FRET experiments, two dye molecules are attached to the protein, which is then illuminated by laser light. One dye, the donor, absorbs the laser light and either emits it with a characteristic colour, or alternatively transfers the energy to the other dye, the acceptor. This will then emit light with another colour. Light will thus be emitted from the two dyes, and scientists can measure the distance between the two dyes by measuring how much light is emitted of each colour. Because the dyes have been carefully inserted in two specific positions in the pump, these distance changes track the pumping movements of the pump.
The single molecule technique enabled the new discoveries, as explained by Fellow Magnus Kjærgaard, Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies (AIAS), who also contributed to the discovery.
"We have moved from 'Pump Fiction' to 'Pump Live'. Previously, we always recorded the signals from many molecules at the same time, which blurs the movements. Using single-molecule FRET techniques, we can focus on one molecule at a time, which allows us to observe the structural changes directly. This provides us with a video of the pump in action with fewer gaps. Our Pump Fiction movie initially got its name because we knew the transitions between the different states of the cycle were fictional, and that there could be additional insights hiding in the gaps between the known states. We have now demonstrated this in abundance, and at the same time revealed critical new insights into how the pump works," he says.
Besides adding to our knowledge of the basic processes of life, the understanding of these pumps may also have practical applications. Mutations in the pumps can cause defects in brain cells, and this can cause neurological disorders such as migraine, temporary paralysis or neurodegenerative disorders.
The mechanisms of these ion pumps are thus pivotal to understanding the errors in the pump, especially with a view to developing new drugs targeting the pump.
"We haven't yet reached the stage where we can transfer our ion pump research into treatment of disease. However, the new insights have led to ideas that may be used to develop treatment of defects in neuronal signalling, for example. But this is work for the future. Right now, there is every reason to celebrate the revelation of the intimate details of one of the most important enzymes of life. The work has built on great collaborations here at the university, and with researchers in the USA. We have already started new exciting collaborations that will allow us to take the next steps," says Professor Poul Nissen.

Overcoming Passivity
February 25
When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it roams through waterless places in search [of a place] of rest (release, refreshment, ease); and finding none it says, I will go back to my house from which I came. And when it arrives, it finds [the place] swept and put in order and furnished and decorated. And it goes and brings other spirits, seven [of them], more evil than itself, and they enter in, settle down, and dwell there; and the last state of that person is worse than the first.
—Luke 11:24-26
This word from Jesus can be frightening. His purpose for the warning is not to cause us to cringe and worry about unclean spirits coming back. It's a warning to tell us that it's not enough to get rid of wrong thoughts—we must keep the door locked so our enemy can't return. Not only does evil come back, but it comes back worse than before. I once read an article about diets, and the author said that most people who diet actually lose weight—until they stop dieting. Then they regain the weight they lost and about 5 percent more. When they stop working at the problem, they not only stop losing, but they're worse than before they started. The author went on to say that the only way to win the battle of being overweight is to make a lifestyle change—by becoming aware of the danger areas and guarding ourselves against making wrong choices. It works that way spiritually, as well. One way to keep wrong thoughts out of your mind is to keep the mind active and alert and full of right things. You can cast out the devil, but then you must remain alert, always aware of his tricks. As I point out in my book Battlefield of the Mind, there are aggressive sins (or sins of commission) and there are passive sins (sins of omission).4 That is, there are things we do that hurt a relationship, such as speaking careless words. But it is just as true that we hurt relationships by the omission of kind words, those thoughtful words that express appreciation, affection, or awareness of kind deeds others have done. When confronted, passive individuals yell, "But I didn't do anything!" That's exactly the point. It's what they don't do. Their lack of action actually invites the devil back into their lives. That's a strong statement, so I will say it a different way. You can win any time you take action and push away the thoughts and desires that don't come from God. You may do this on your own through prayer, reading the Bible, or even by resisting the passivity that may be natural for you. But once you've been set free, that's only the beginning. It's not just one victory that lasts forever. It's an ongoing battle—it's constantly rebuking the devil. The best, easiest, and most effective way to rebuke the devil is to fill your mind and your heart with praises to God. When you worship and praise God, you've slammed the door in the enemy's face and put up a "No Trespassing" sign. I don't want to make it sound as if you have to fight demons every second of your life. That's a trick of the devil himself to make you think like that. But when you fill your life with praise and positive, healthy thoughts, you can live in victory. Please read this verse again—aloud—and hear the message of the Holy Spirit: "Finally, my friends, keep your minds on whatever is true, pure, right, holy, friendly, and proper. Don't ever stop thinking about what is truly worthwhile and worthy of praise" (Philippians 4:8 CEV). Victory over passivity is just that simple: Focus your mind on the good and you will have no space left for the passive or the bad.
Pray this...
God, thank You for showing me the way to win over passivity and live in victory every day. In the name of Jesus, I ask You to remind me each day so that I can fill my mind and heart with only worthy thoughts.

I finally had a brief star trail opportunity this summer in Yosemite. Matt escorted me into the darkness and I setup my camera and tripod and took a few shots at varying lengths of exposure.
I am apparently afraid of the dark. I was freaked out. I come from a land of street lamps and traffic. It was so dark that the only reason I knew Matt was Matt was because he was talking- otherwise he just looked like a dark scary figure standing to my right.
This is my only decent shot from that experience. I'm happy with it.. it has about a million more stars than I could ever see at home. One day I'd like to do a proper exposure- maybe leave the camera on all night. For now my 6 minute exposure will keep me happy.

LUCAS OIL SUMMERTIME HORSEPOWER NATIONALS AT MADERAadmin
MADERA, CALIFORNIA – One of the top open-wheel events of the year is at the Madera Speedway this Saturday night with the "Lucas Oil Summertime Horsepower Nationals" led by features for both the Lucas Oil Modified Series and the North State Modifieds Series, presented by Protect the Harvest. In addition to the ground-pounding Modified excitement will be action for the USAC Western US Midgets, CSS 360 Super Modifieds, and Legends of Kearney Bowl.
Madera Speedway's MAVTV cameras will roll for the Lucas Oil Modified Series 75 lap feature, while the North State Modified 60 lapper will be broadcast live on the Madera Speedway Facebook as well.
The North State Modified Series has had a barnstorming year that was highlighted by a 27 car field at Anderson's Shasta Speedway. Rio Linda's Kris Price won the Shasta event and previously was a regular competitor in Madera's Modified division a few years ago. He trails Randy Houston by three points in the standings. The Medford, OR racer has only one Madera North State start back in 2015, when he finished 17th.
Third in the North State battle is Sacramento's Jason Philpot, the winner of round #2 at Eureka. Philpot has three straight podiums at Madera with North State including one win. Last year's Madera North State race was won by Lucas Oil regular Matthew Hicks. Three-time defending series champion Darrin Knight has a Madera win on his resume as well.
This weekend's activities begin with an open practice on Friday night. Gates open at noon with the track hot from 4 p.m. – 9 p.m. On Saturday, pit gates open at 10:30 a.m. with practices beginning at 12:45 p.m. Qualifying follows at 2:45 p.m. with the first heat races and main events beginning at 5:00 p.m. Opening ceremonies are slated for 6:30 p.m.

Garbage pile saves man who tried to commit suicide in midtown
A suicidal man plummeted nine stories and survived in midtown Sunday when he landed on a mountain of trash that had piled up since last week's blizzard, officials said.
Vangelis Kapatos, 26, wearing only pajama bottoms, jumped from his family's apartment in the Whitby building on 45th St. near Eighth Ave. just after noon.
The troubled young man, fresh out of a psychiatric facility, had tried to end his life in a number of other ways before making the leap, police sources said.
"He landed on a garbage pile," one official said. "That's the only reason he's alive."
Kapatos, whose family hails from Greece, was taken by ambulance to Bellevue Hospital. He was in critical but stable condition there Sunday night, police said. His injuries were not life-threatening.
Kapatos landed on his back, causing some of the black plastic garbage bags to burst, spewing their rotten contents all over the sidewalk.
The Sanitation Department suspended trash collection after the Dec. 26 snowstorm paralyzed the city. It was expected to resume today.
Residents of the building, where Kapatos lived with his father, said the garbage had been kept in the basement since the storm hit.
Workers at the building put the rotten haul - some 100 bags in all - on the curb Sunday morning, residents said.
"He's probably alive because of it," said one longtime resident of the building who would not give his name.
Joe Kantor, 55, said he looked out his apartment window after hearing police-car sirens blaring outside the building. He said he was stunned to see Kapatos lying amid the bulging trash bags.
"He wasn't moving at all. I didn't think he was alive," Kantor recalled. "He was bleeding from the side, and I thought he might have been stabbed."
Kapatos had a history of psychiatric problems, the police sources said. Before he took the plunge, he sliced his throat with a knife,the sources said.
One other official source said Kapatos had tried to hang himself inside the apartment.
Kapatos had been undergoing treatment at Bellevue and was discharged Friday, a police source said.
Another neighbor, Austin Colyer, 80, called Kapatos "a good boy."
He said the young man had lived in the building since his parents moved to New York from Greece when he was 3. His mother returned to her homeland a few years ago.
"He went to school, but was quiet, kept to himself," Colyer said of Kapatos. "I don't think he had a very happy childhood."

Hey guys!!
For this week's GD Tracklist I thought about going with on of his new songs, but those have been covered quite a bit so I figured I should go with the song that naturally follows last week's song Heartbreaker ~ Breathe.
I really love this song! I know I always say that, but it's GD - he is a brilliant artist with masses of amazing songs. That is what makes this series so difficult - it's hard to pick just one each week ;)

Disability Services
Disability Services
The Disability Services program is conducted by Disability Services Coordinator with the cooperation of GUST faculty.
The disability program has been developed to provide accommodations to students with documented reports. The goal of providing accommodation to students is to encourage their continued growth, progress, and academic performance at GUST.
Accommodations for students with disabilities are not limited to note-taking assistance, tutoring and extra time for exams as well as the possibility to receive proctoring services at the Student Success Center.
Students are responsible for requesting the needed accommodations through the Student Success Center during the admission process.
GUST empowers students with disabilities to realize their academic and personal potential through offering equal access to university programs. Services include coordinating reasonable accommodations and other support services for eligible students.
Reasonable accommodations are adjusted for students with disabilities which will provide equal access to GUST programs. Accommodation plans and services are customized to match the disability-related needs of each student and are determined according to documentation and the student's program requirements.
Registration for these accommodations includes submission of the Disclosure Form, which should be given with their application to the university, as well as appropriate disability documentation. Also, students need to complete the Disability Accommodation Request Form for use in the Student Success Center.
Disability Documentation
1. Students requesting reasonable accommodations must submit documentation dated within 5 years.
2. Issued by a medical or other qualified, licensed professional.
3. Printed on official letterhead, dated, and signed by the licensed professional. GUST reserves the right to require that a certified copy of the report be transmitted directly from the licensed professional to the university.
4. Comprehensive documentations which include a psycho educational evaluation, diagnostic interview, and clinical summary.
1. Proctoring exams
This is usually arranged by faculty and done in the student Success center. The exam/quiz is proctored at the SSC with one of the Disability service coordinator presence.
2. Extended time during Exams and/or Quizzes
This is usually arranged by faculty and done at the Student Success Center. An alternative is to have the student take the exam/quiz in the faculty member's office.
3. Orally Administered Exams
The student has the option of hearing the questions spoken and to orally provide his responses or to record their answers via a tape recorder. If the student would like to use a tape recorder should confirm the accommodation and provide a tape recorder for test use.
5. Note Taking Services
If this is requested by the student, a note taker will be hired to assist student in-class.
6. Use of a Tape Recorder during Class
The student should confirm the accommodation and provide a tape recorder for class use.

The Ohio State football team visited the White House on Monday as President Barack Obama congratulated it on its recent championship-winning season.
The Buckeyes won their eighth national championship on Jan. 12, beating the Oregon Ducks, 42-20, in the first-ever College Football Playoff title game.
The team traveled to the White House for the honorary event held for the college football champions every year.
After the players took their places, Obama entered the room accompanied by coach Urban Meyer, OSU President Michael Drake and OSU vice president and athletic director Gene Smith. The event was live-streamed on the White House's website.
Obama began the ceremony in an OSU fashion with three "O-H," "I-O" chants. He kept the mood light, joking about Meyer's three championship victories.
"It's coach Meyer's third time winning (the championship) with his second team," Obama said. "I've only done it twice — and with the same team both times," referring to winning two presidential elections.
The president went on to recap OSU's season, putting emphasis on the much talked-about quarterback situation. Obama drew cheers when he mentioned redshirt-sophomore quarterback J.T. Barrett's ill-timed injury against "a certain team up north," stating he wasn't allowed to say Michigan's name.
Obama talked about some of the "characters" on the team, pointing out departing senior wide receiver Evan Spencer's "selfless" play, junior running back Ezekiel Elliott's untucked jersey and junior defensive lineman Joey Bosa's signature shrugging celebration, which the president imitated.
Obama finished his address by praising the players' performance both on and off the field, mentioning the various community service and charity works the players had done, saying, "The love between this team and their community is mutual."
"I will say when you get 100,000 fans to show up to a practice (Spring Game), I think it's fair to say that your fans are a little crazy," he joked. "But obviously it's working for them and it's working for this extraordinary team."
Meyer took the podium next, thanking Obama for holding the ceremony.
"I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for being a strong supporter of sports and collegiate athletics, wanting to recognize that you were an early supporter of the creation of the College Football Playoff," Meyer said, receiving laughs and applause from the audience.
Meyer then called up team captains Doran Grant and Curtis Grant, who presented the president with gifts from the team: a game ball from the national championship game and a scarlet OSU jersey with the No. 44 and "Obama" on the nameplate.
As the ceremony concluded, Obama posed with the team for a group picture. Before leaving, he invited two-time Heisman Trophy winning running back Archie Griffin and Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Cris Carter, both former OSU football players, on stage to shake hands and take more pictures.
As a final word, Obama asked Drake if he had anything to add. Drake simply replied, "Go Bucks."

That Miller sig looks as bad as mine. I took a check to the bank once and the teller said the I had to sign it. I told him I did and he thought that I wrote the banks initials on the back.
But every Banny sig looks exactly like that. I got six cards signed by him this past summer and he takes his time and signs everyone to the best of his ability. It make take a little longer than David DeJesus, but it's deffinitely worth the wait in the end.

Advancing from Outsider to Insider: A Grounded Theory of Professional Identity Negotiation
Groen, Cassandra J.
MetadataShow full item record
As evidenced by a large body of research within the engineering education community, those individuals who do not maintain a sense of belonging, identify with engineering groups, or perceive themselves as engineers are more likely to leave the profession. However, little is known about the ways in which engineering students construct or develop their personal and professional identities as influenced by the disciplinary values, behaviors, and practices learned during the undergraduate education experience. In order to deepen the understanding of professional identity formation within the engineering disciplines, a grounded theory study was conducted to explore the experiences of 31 sophomore, junior, and senior level undergraduate students enrolled in a civil engineering program. Upon conducting an iterative process of data collection and analysis, a theory of professional identity negotiation emerged from interviews depicting participants' experiences. This theory titled Negotiating Equilibrium: Advancing from Outsider to Insider or the AOI Model, captures the identities negotiated by students as they iteratively define, adjust, and readjust definitions of self and profession to maintain a balance between their personal self and the learned disciplinary identity of the civil engineering profession. As participants gained this balance, they began to see themselves as professionals and advance from an outsider (i.e., one not belonging to the civil engineering profession) to an insider (i.e., one belonging to the civil engineering profession). The AOI Model provides a framework for researchers to further explore professional identity formation, promotes the development of identity-influencing coursework and instructor teaching approaches, and inspires future research trajectories in engineering and civil engineering education.
