months ago we came home tipsy from dinner and bought sale flights to new york. afterwards i had one of those "what the $%@# did i just do?" moments, but moved passed it. fast forward to october and here we are! our much anticipated trip started off with a day spent in brooklyn. having come off the red eye, we needed a day full of activities.
highlights include: bagels at russ and daughters, walking over the williamsburg bridge, aimlessly wandering brooklyn, lunch at five leaves, drinks at nights and weekends, and later the gutter {an amazing old school bowling alley/bar}, some down time at our home for the weekend, a ridiculous 12 person dinner at the smile, and finally some classic nyc bar hopping that ended at the back room.
^^ the gentleman we wish we were having brunch with... anyone?

Many of us are not thankful for the intricate and instantaneous processes our body routinely performs because unless you are unusually grateful by nature, you don't spend your waking moments giving thanks for your waking moments.

Ignite your personal brand with story
This article will cover how you can harness the power of story to benefit your personal brand.
Your story will inject consistency and authenticity. It will help you sharpen and focus your mind. You will improve the clarity of what you stand for and how you communicate it - whether you are looking for a new job or leading a multibillion dollar corporation.
I am lucky enough to be friends with both Mel Carson and Jenni Flinders – experts in personal branding who come at it from slightly different angles. Mel, approaches the topic with a focus more on communications and purpose. Jenni turns up the volume on "first impressions" and decorum. They both extol the importance of authenticity and suggest putting your personal story at the core.
I agree.
Their approaches help you be proactive and intentional about how you are perceived.
"What's your mission? What's your value" – Mel Carson
Let's take a look at how this all works.
What is a personal brand anyway?
In her TEDx Talk (below) Jenni covers how a brand is the "Intellectual, emotional and visual impression people have when they think of you". Brands are a byproduct of our interaction with the world. They will happen regardless of the effort we put into them. We can however influence how they land if we are intentional in how we approach their design.
"Intellectual, emotional and visual impression people have when they think of you".
Jenni's practical advice on first impressions is great stuff. It is, after all, something we never get a second chance at.
In his practical step-by-step book "Introduction to Personal Branding" Mel Carson says "What's your mission? What's your value?" This is about alignment, of audience perception and what you are trying to say. Your audience's knowledge of what you can do (for them) and what value you can bring (to them), must be in harmony.
Both Jenni and Mel have very practical suggestions on how to explore, draw out and focus on your personal brand. I highly suggest you check out their work.
How does storytelling play into this?
"I have a story. You have a story. We all have a story." – Mel Carson.
Our authentic story is at the core of who we are. You cannot separate yourself from your story. You are the protagonist in your own adventure. There are three components to this.
- Your history – all that has led you to this moment
- Your living story – the story you are making in this moment
- Your unwritten, future story – what you can achieve in future moments
The red line of your purpose runs through this. I am fond of how, in his book, Mel's lays out the steps to identify your purpose. Likewise, Bo Eason has a great exercise to draw out your personal story. Bo's approach is one that digs deeply into your past and the events that shaped you – it is fun to go through, and very involved. Mel has some useful backward-looking exercises characterized as "Past signposts define future path".
In her TEDx talk Jenni shows you how telling stories can engage an audience from the get-go. She puts the audience at the center of the story, twice. Jenni does so very viscerally. Both in her opening "you wake up and can't get back to sleep because of an interview" story and a personal story of her first presentation to a group of senior executives, it was tense! My palms were sweating as I watched.
How does story play into your personal brand? Let me be so bold as to put it this way: personal branding is nothing without your story. It is the redline that runs through all.
Knowing your personal story and being able to tell it is a non-negotiable first step in your personal branding efforts.
"Personal branding is nothing without your story"
Branding and beyond
Storytelling affects all branding. Any branding efforts that do not put authentic meaning at their center will not survive engagement with the real world.
"A brand is a promise. And if that promise breaks, you don't have a brand." - Hitesh Bhasin
Have you ever seen a bad comedy show? What seems like a long time ago, for my 30th birthday, a group of us celebrated in New York. Including my parents. We went to a comedy show. Now, the show wasn't bad per say but it was very lewd. I sat next to my mother and became quite aware of her discomfort and embarrassment. She did not like it.
The comedian was not connecting with his audience, at least not some of it. I know, I know, many comedians are lewd and aggressive on purpose. My point still stands, if you do not resonate with your audience you will put them off. My mum was not impressed.
How do you want your audience to feel?
This also goes for determining product market fit. A great idea isn't enough. It must solve an actual problem and you need to be able to communicate why that is. Furthermore, meaning it is essential for defining a value proposition and a positioning framework. All these things need to be created in a way that resonates with your intended customer.
At its heart a story conveys meaning, purpose and why. Use story to achieve resonance.

Is Your Milk Safe to Drink? Thank This Guy
Yes, I drive a tanker and I collect milk, but my job is so much more than that. When people pick up a milk carton in the dairy aisle at the supermarket, the last thing on their mind is whether that liquid is safe to drink, or how it got there. They would never dream that the drivers who haul the raw milk from the dairy farm have anything to do with that – but we do.
I'm More Than Just a Driver – I'm the First Line in Quality Control
A critical part of my day begins even before I start pumping the milk out of the farmer's milk-house and into my tank.
When I arrive at a farm, before I begin loading the milk, I visually inspect it for color, sniff it to make sure it smells fresh, and check that the milk is being stored between 34° F and 36° F; along with measuring the quantity in the tank.
Next, I move on to a very important part of the job—taking samples. I agitate the tank to allow the milk and cream to mix before filling a 2-oz. vial of the combined mixture.
The sample is then used to determine quality and quantity of the milk. Once the sample is concluded the farm is paid a premium based on the milk quality.
Only after the samples are taken do I hook up the transfer hose and begin pumping the milk. Once that is complete, I wash down the floors of the milk-house and rinse the bulk tank. Then I'm off to the next farm to repeat the routine.
My Customers – The Farmers – Depend On Me
I feel a tremendous sense of responsibility to do my best for the 10 or 15 dairy farms I visit each day, because I know the farmers work hard— and that their business never stops. The cows must be milked.
I may get a holiday, but they don't – and they depend on me to make sure the samples reflect the true quality of their product, and that their load of milk – and livelihood – arrive to the processing facility safely and on time.

Christendom Kills
Two born and bred Southern Baptist women wrote books about keeping the "best" of their faith and discarding the rest. I don't know if their readership overlaps at all. Jen Hatmaker's For the Love is a folksy, funny plea to moms and burnt out church ladies to be kind and activated. Macy Halford's My Utmost is a literary, scholarly wrestling for the beauty of grace from the arms of churchiness, accessible more to the coastal elite in its style, though perhaps not its context.
Halford's feels like an inversion of my story. She and I were both history majors at elite colleges, desperately love ideas and literature, and are comfortable in these contexts. These things modified her experience of her childhood faith, changed it. It's not like she gives a statement of faith, but she sees in Oswald Chambers an expression of full blooded life, life which chooses risk for the sake being truly alive, finding love and purpose. This is her center of Christianity. Her faith ends up with no place for any tenets that would offend her New Yorker friends.
Hatmaker is relatable more broadly because of her warmth, her humor, and her insight into real life. While Halford reads like a literary prize winner, Hatmaker sticks to her blogger roots. Yet she too has a faith that has been modified by exposure to the world. This makes sense, of course. It would be unreasonable for 40 year old women to have the faith of their 10 year old selves.
These women ended up in similar places, despite their ostensible differences. They champion a faith that emphasizes action, love of people, discovery of self, and freedom from religious chains. They shun rules, and the full Jesus. Hatmaker is pleased to declare Jesus beautiful and give him credit for our freedom in For the Love, though he is not much discussed beyond that fact that the he really loved people. Halford, on the other hand, skirts Jesus and his role in the faith he founded.
Both call themselves Christians, yet both reject outworkings of their faith that are historical and, more importantly, biblical. How did this happen?
It happened because they found it a successful coping mechanism for the scars of cultural Christianity. At this point, I write as an outsider. Growing up in California, and spending my adult life in New England, I have no meaningful personal relationship with the Bible Belt. But these two women lived and breathed the Southern Baptist machine of the 1980's and 90's. Church meetings, abstinence pledges, conferences, Christian music, and the Religious Right. A Church culture wed to a conservative political posture, that unified the will of the Lord with the platform of the Republican Party.
This is Christendom. This is Church which saturates society, but doesn't communicate the whole gospel. They saw the holes in their traditions, the ways that their churches didn't reflect Jesus, and they over-corrected. The Bible Belt has not stewarded the gospel well, and its children are susceptible to syncretism.
In every culture there are priorities that line up with the gospel; we are made in his image, and so we reflect him. It is easy to affirm the parts of culture that line up with God's words. In the 1950's, that was things like sexual purity. Today, it's love for those on the margins.
But every culture has things that directly contradict the gospel; we are sinners who break his image. It is terribly hard to reject what feels normal culturally because of God's Word; we bristle against it, justify it using logic and emotion. In the 1950's, that was racism. Today, it is sexual purity.
Halford and Hatmaker have adult faiths that have changed emphases, but ultimately mimic their childhood faiths. Both stages of faith affirmed where the Bible agreed with cultural priorities and dismissed or reinterpreted the culturally gauche parts. The only thing that shifted between now and then was a whole chunk of cultural priorities. Let's not throw stones though; this struggle belongs to all of us who want to relate to the Bible.
My encounter with the gospel changed my childhood faith, too—my childhood faith in the salvific power of ideas and literature. Jesus shows me, continually, that He is, and things only come together in him—especially the things which make no sense to my current culture. I'm certain I don't know everything, I'm certain on some things I'm wrong. I'm also certain that we need to read the Scriptures together, and expect that God will say things that we dislike. I pray he will give us faith to trust him where he does.
We're all in this together.

Leicester had the smirk well and truly wiped from their collective jowls by Crystal Palace last weekend, but they will get back to winning ways promptly against Burnley thanks to their guests' mounting injury woes.
The Foxes have been priced up at an extremely generous 3/4 for a return to the ways of the win, with their desperately depleted opponents 5/2 to eke out a point and a 'wouldn't touch it with yours pal' 15/4 to return northwards with all three points.
Much has been made of the fact that Burnley boss Sean Dyche has had to mount his assault on the top tier without strikers Sam Vokes and Danny Ings, who scored 41 goals between them in the Championship last season.
Yet things have gone from bad to worse in the Turf Moor accident and emergency department of late, with an ambulance-load of central-midfielders awaiting the nurse.
First-choice duo Dean Marney and David Jones both remain out of the picture, having missed the visit to West Brom, but that's by no means it, as potential replacements Nathaniel Chalobah and Matt Taylor are also out of action.
At the Hawthorns, Scott Arfield, George Boyd and the veteran Steven Reid were pressed into a makeshift central trio that proved an inadequate platform, keeping a mere 37 per cent of possession and allowing the opposition opportunity to unleash some 20 efforts on goal as they were smashed 4-0.
Leicester will be fiercely motivated for the Clarets' arrival too, after Palace offered them a timely reminder that stepping on the heads of their fellow top-flight freshmen, not sundry glamour points against the division's aristocracy, are the meat and drink of the survivalist's repast.
Nonetheless, having taken five points from three games against Everton, Arsenal and Manchester United at the King Power, Nigel Pearson's side have already proved themselves formidable at home.
While dismantling what is likely to prove a stubborn Burnley resistance is a different challenge to those counter-attack inspired successes, their superior midfield resources (Esteban Cambiasso is fit to play) and potent strikeforce should see them over the line.

The Northern Lights have been added to Google Views - an application that allows you to see the natural wonders and famous landmarks of the world in 360-degree panoramas.
Google Views allows internet users to upload and share their photographs of interesting locations around the globe, which are displayed as zoomable maps (called 'photospheres' by Google), plotted on Google Maps and location-linked via geotagging.
The Northern Lights, photographed in Finland, have now been added as a themed category. Other categories of panoramas include Brazil's Painted Streets, Discover Dubai and the Pyramids of Giza.
So far, images have been shared on seven continents, and more than 50 countries, with an estimated 50,000,000 miles travelled by photo-sharers.
The panoramic uploads of the Northern Lights, taken east of the Hammastunturi Wilderness Area in northern Finland, show thin streaks of green in spiraling curving formations illuminating an otherwise dark sky.
If you'd like to see the incredible natural phenomena, you're in luck. The lights have been in optimum viewing capacity in the last few years thanks to high numbers of collisions between charged particles released from the Sun's atmosphere, and gaseous particles in the Earth's.
Scandinavia and North America are the places to see the aurora borealis in their full glory. Take a trip to Alaska or northern Canada to view them in the wilderness, or take a luxury short-break in Tromso, Norway, for a first-class view of one of the most beguiling wonders of the world.

Ahhhh after all the flying drama we made it. Months of freezing through winter, colds and snotty noses to then walk off the plane and be smacked in the face with warmth and humidity. It was at that moment I decided that I was taking two weeks off winter every year and swapping it for some place the temperature stayed above 25 degrees. I say that now but let's see that turn into reality.
Our driver packed our bags in his car and pointed Franklin's car seat looking a bit puzzled. I put it in the car a little self conscious and strapped everyone in. Jack and Eva squealed with delight as they sat in the car chanting 'no more booster seat'. I quickly burst that bubble explaining this was temporary. As we left the airport and joined the chaos of cars and motorbikes on the road, I immediately understood his confusion towards the car seat when out of my window past a family on a motorcycle with a mother holding a newborn and no one wearing helmets. That was the last time we used the car seat for Franklin. We were definitely not in Sydney anymore and knew from that moment this was going to be a fun experience for our family. It was little experiences like this, and this was one of many that our family gained a little perspective in life. Not that we aren't grateful for what we have. I have always been proud of how generous and friendly our kids are, but here they experienced and learned things that they still mention in conversation today. Our holiday was going to be a mix of seeing and experiencing, relaxing and enjoying.
It's hard enough sometimes getting your kids to eat what you make them at home so we had to make a big deal about all the amazing food we would be trying. Mind you the resort at the end and as most hotels do, accommodated their buffet to meet every country's needs. This was both interesting and terrible for eating my weight in food. The first week was spent exploring restaurants, and being huge lovers of noodles, satay and BBQ meat, we had literally found food Heaven. Cam was more excited by the price of everything compared to what we would pay in Sydney so was more than happy to make every meal a three course one for us all. Again, awesome at the time but with later consequence to the hips.
Being in another Country is amazing to experience a different culture and the adventure of seeing everything a place is made up of. For a mum, while I loved those things and even more doing it with the kids, I really really really enjoyed not washing a single dish or making any beds. There was no alarm in the morning, school run, sport lessons and no to do list for the day. It was a day made up of whatevers. Whatever time, whatever place, it was all music to my ears. The kids going to bed at 9pm meant we were waking up around that time (also thanks to dark curtains that we don't have, which I will be purchasing soon). Having a swimming pool was as good as any bath for my kids and living in swimmers with the occasional going out outfit meant almost zero washing. The kids made friends with everyone they met and although they did a ton of walking, it was nothing a bribe of icecream or milkshake couldn't fix. Pretty soon our family were ordering Bali's own dishes and the kids collected Cam's left over money to put in their own wallets and purses to use for shopping at the markets. Eva doubled her summer wardrobe with maxi dresses and accessories to match and Jack spotted a tub of fish you put your feet into and there was no stopping him. Totally grossed me out but he loved it and it's all experience right? They took their own photos of places and monuments they thought were interesting and gave stationary items they had bought back in Sydney to an orphanage we visited. Our family had created an adventure that we would never be able to do at home and would remember forever.
So how do you let your children be open to experiences like this when you show them the world around them? Before we left, I showed the kids a map of Bali and then looked up pictures of places we would like to visit when we were there, what the Balinese people looked like and how they dressed, and the food we would be eating. Because they were prepared to see this, when we arrived, nothing was too daunting. Our only rule was to try and have a go.
My next blog and the final part to holidaying with kids will delve into the sitting by the pool and hotel living type holiday. It comes with a load of stories that are funny, some stressful moments and the envy of watching all the child free couples!

Dead End Follies 2017 Longform Archive
Last 2017 retrospective post, I promise.
If 2017 taught me something, it's that you clearly don't care about some books I read or movies I see, but you'll care for almost anything I can explore unpack in finer details. And I'm grateful that you find me interesting enough to stick around. Last year, I set the goal for myself to write one longform piece a month, which I achieved by writing thirteen overall. So, in case it's a slow day at work or you're home wondering what to do with yourself, here are all the longform pieces I wrote in 2017, which cover a wide variety of pop culture topics from Taylor Swift to internet memes.
The Understanding Series
Last year, I started a new series of essay where I just shared a personal pop culture obsession of mine without context or anything. In these, I explained why these topics fascinated me, tried to make you see things through my eyes and - hopefully - kickstart discussion.
Here are the nine pieces in order.
Understanding the Misappreciated Art of Podcasting
Understanding True Detective, Season One
Understanding True Detective, Season Two
Other Longform Pieces
The Most Important Song in the World
Art Criticism in the internet age *
Your Novel Blows Because...it's Cartoonishly Bleak
* Maybe my favorite thing I wrote all year.

State - INACTIVE
Cold, wet weather heading toward Modesto region
Modesto will get a brief respite from the cold rainy temperatures that hit over the weekend, but a series of storm systems will be moving into the area later this week.
Today's high temperature will top out at about 10 degrees warmer than Monday, with a predicted high of 80. The pleasant temperatures will continue through Wednesday until a series of systems from the Gulf of Alaska start heading south, according to National Weather Service Meteorologist Holly Osborne.
Come Thursday, clouds will move in over the valley, with a 20 percent chance of rain Saturday night and Sunday morning.
Daytime highs will cool down to the upper 60s and low 70s – five to 10 degrees cooler than average temperatures for this time of year. Nighttime lows will be in the low to mid 50s, according to Osborne.
The rainy conditions could spill over into next week but Osborne said early predictions indicate a northern shift in the storm patterns, leaving Modesto on the border of the system.

Joco cup
Joco cup
Look at this cup. It makes me regret I only drink one cup of coffee a day. Hello JOCO Cups! You must be the proof helping the environment can be done without compromising taste and style.
Coffee-to-goes are still quite fancy. Every year 2.25 billion cups are used worldwide with the price of cutting 50 million trees. Also, coffee cups usually contain Bisphenol A. That is an unfriendly chemical that can bring your health in risk. Oh no!
JOCO cups instead, are made of glass. So you can taste your coffee and not your cup. They look ridiculously stylish, last longer and don't beat up your taste buds or Mother Nature.
For now, these lovable cups are only for sale in Australia. But luckily for us, they have an online shop. Pick. Add. Order. Hurray!

More and more event organizations have an environmental policy in place. But what does such a policy actually look like? Event planners need to have a plan and a vision of how they want to run the organization. You need to set your objectives for your organization and your event. Event planners please… make sure you can live up to them! You can read more about environmental policies in my eBook Event Management: Your Environmental Plan.
American music festivals and environmental policies
Over the last 2 years I have assessed the environmental plans of several American music festivals. A good plan starts with an environmental policy. An environmental policy is a statement of what you, your organization, and your event stand for. Let's have a look at three successful festivals in America.
Lightning in a Bottle festival
Lightning in a Bottle, organized by The Do Lab, has won the Greener Festival Award 4 years in a row. The festival's ethos is explained on their website:
"We want you to leave it better, leave it beautiful! We want YOU to leave the event with better tools for your life, and leave the land better and more beautiful than you found it. As an integral part of our community, please find ways to "Leave A Positive Trace" from our time together."
This vision is directly aimed at the audience. Without your help and involvement we can't do it, they seem to say. I agree with this. In order for it to work you have to make sure that your vision of adopting a sustainable policy is communicated and explained to your audience. This means that your vision is visible on site. Think of how you communicate your recycling ambitions to your visitors. What about how they use and consume water whilst at the festival? Can you educate your attendees whilst they are at your event? At this festival they certainly try.
Shambhala Music Festival
I have not personally assessed this festival but on their website they state:
"Shambhala is cutting edge in its production and does not accept any corporate sponsorship. This allows the festival to retain a true reflection of the people on the dance floor and their vision of what their community looks like. This mission is important to hold down as electronic dance music culture moves into the mainstream where threatened large corporations and production budgets threaten to water it down. In this respect, the Shambhala community is like no other. You will not see one advertisement or corporate logo on the farm."
This is a great example of what a festival can stand for. Please don't think that in order to go green you need to abandon corporate sponsorship. This is a choice Shambhala made! They make it clear to everyone that this is what they stand for and this is how they want to organize their festival.
Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival
The festival has won the Greener Festival Award for several years now and is an excellent example of what a festival with 80,000 visitors can do to implement sustainable practices. When the festival is finished Bonnaroo produces a 'Report to the Fans' in which they display data about water usage on site, waste management, carpooling, and other sustainable initiatives. A great example of how you can communicate with your audience and make them aware of how they [the audience] contribute to the sustainable policies of the festival.
On their website they state:
"We don't just want to be the best festival. We aspire to be the greenest festival, and set the standard in sustainability and greening practices for North American concert events. To do so, we will engage fans, artists, the public, officials and even other festivals. Because of what's at stake, we will gladly spend the extra effort and cost this sometimes involves. We believe our commitment to being sustainably green doesn't hurt the Bonnaroo experience, but rather defines it and improves it. Who says you can't have fun while changing the world?"
The nice thing about all three examples is that they are from different festival organizations. Each organization has a different idea about what their festival should look like but they all share that desire to organize a festival that gives something back. Giving back to the audiences but also the local communities.
In my previous blog I mentioned the 4 pillars of sustainability. Read the above visions again and let me know if you can find all four pillars back in the visions of these festivals. Pretty good, right?

About Us
What We Believe
We believe that within the One Supreme Being God, there eternally exist three co-equal and co-eternal persons revealed to mankind as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit otherwise known as the Trinity. We believe that God is infinite, perfect, all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present, all-loving and unchangeable.
We believe the Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God and totally accurate in all matters it addresses. We believe that the Holy Spirit is the author of all Scripture and that He superintended holy men of old as they penned the divine Word of God. We attest to the all sufficiency of the Bible and that within it is found all that is needed for Christian faith and practice and that it alone is the believer's final authority. We define the Bible as those 66 divinely inspired books, which have been historically accepted by the Protestant Church as Canon.
We believe that humanity by nature is fallen and has inherited the condition of sin from the original man Adam. We believe that Jesus Christ who was God incarnate, fully God and fully Man, came to earth and though He was tempted in all manners as we are, remained without sin. We believe that Jesus Christ died as the Bible records for the sins of all humanity as substitutionary sacrifice for men. We believe that on the third day He rose from the grave. The only way for a man to be redeemed is by placing his faith in the person and works of Jesus Christ. Those works being especially His death, resurrection, and Lordship. Finally, we believe that salvation is completely a free gift of God's grace for those He alone has chosen to redeem; this does not however relieve man from his responsibility to accept and obey God's word concerning his plan for salvation.
We believe that the Church is comprised of the community of believers in Jesus Christ throughout all times and that for all eternity God's divine plan was to establish the church as His bride and His body so that through the Church, He might display his manifold wisdom to the world. We believe in the priesthood of all believers and that every Christian has a portion with God's plan for redemption. We Believe that the Church was intended to operate as a diverse and multi-faceted organization while within the world. In order to effectively minister to the unique needs of the local communities of people they live among.
We believe that the ministry of teaching is God's divine plan for the passing on of His will to mankind and from one generation to the next. We believe that God has ordained that the teachers of His will be redeemed men and women who have accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior and that these individuals not be new converts but ones who have proven to have a reliable track record of Godly living. We believe that the basis of all Christian teaching should be deeply rooted in the Bible.
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the seal, guarantee and deposit given to believers to confirm their salvation and that the manifestation of any of the Gifts of the Spirit listed in the Bible is sufficient evidence of the presence of Salvation and the Holy Spirit in a person's life. We believe that all the Gifts of the Spirit are available and active within the Church until the second coming of Christ Jesus. We believe that the Holy Spirit distributes the Gifts to empower the believer for Christian service and the performance of acts of love which will edify the body of Christ and testify to the world of the goodness of God.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ commanded that His church keep two ordinances, these being, Water Baptism and Holy Communion. We believe that Water Baptism is an act which a believer performs after he has accepted Jesus Christ, at the beginning of his Christian life, as his personal Lord and Savior. This act is a public confession of the believer's allegiance to Christ and the Christian lifestyle and his denouncement of all false religions and his former way of sinful living. We believe that Holy Communion is a memorial act reserved only for believers whereby we place ourselves in remembrance of the atoning death of our Lord Jesus Christ and communicate to a watching world our ongoing fellowship with Jesus Christ.
We believe in the soon coming rapture of the church at the second coming of Jesus Christ. We believe that at the conclusion of the millennial reign of Christ and His church there will be two judgments. The first shall be for the judging of all men according to their deeds, those who trusted Jesus shall receive immortal bodies and everlasting life, those who lived wickedly shall receive immortal bodies and everlasting condemnation in the lake of fire (Hell). The second judgment is for believers only during which God shall distribute rewards and crowns based upon the Christian service the individual performed.

"Of David. Blessed is Hashem, my rock, who trains my hands for battle, my fingers for warfare." Psalms 144:1 (The Israel Bible™)
Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) this week announced the development of a breakthrough operational and technological capability for the family of Heron medium-altitude long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).
With the new capability, the Herons can automatically land in remote runways located thousands of miles away, where it is serviced by a small crew and basic fueling infrastructure before it takes off for an additional mission.
Based on satellite communication, combined with precise automated taxiing, takeoff and landing, this innovative, unprecedented capability constitutes a major breakthrough in the remote operation concept, offering maximum operational flexibility.
The new capability was tried successfully in May 2017, followed by a demonstration for customers in November 2017. During that demonstration, the Heron took off from an airport in central Israel, performed a several-hour mission and landed automatically on secondary runway in southern Israel where the Heron was received by a minimal crew that refuel it – and then the same Heron took off on several additional missions, eventually landing automatically at its home base.
The entire process, including the automated landing, taxiing on ground after landing, engine switching off and on, pre-takeoff taxiing and automated takeoff of the Heron, was fully controlled from a remote station in central Israel.
Filed as a new patent application in August 2017, the new capability saves on command stations and flying crew resources by eliminating the need to return to the original takeoff point for fueling. The technology saves flight time and fuel, increases operational availability in the mission area and provides several options for routine and emergency landing. With the new capability, Heron RPAS will be used in even more complicated and challenging missions.
The Heron has a long, successful operational record gained through years of serving dozens of customers around the world, including the Israeli Air Force, Azerbaijan, Brazil, Canada, Ecuador, Germany, Greece, India, Morocco, Singapore, South Korea, Turkey, and the United States.
The Heron is designed for prolonged strategic and tactical missions and is capable of flying in tough weather conditions, carry multiple sensors simultaneously and transmit real-time information to the forces in the field and the decision makers. To date, the Heron system has accumulated more than 300,000 flight hours around the globe.
Shaul Shahar, IAI EVP and General Manager of IAI's Military Aircraft Group, said in a statement, "The breakthrough technological capability and the upgraded operation capability of the Heron uniquely respond to our clients' need for high operational flexibility. It is expected to increase the number of markets we target. This is a technological and operational quantum leap that protects Heron's global leadership position. We are proud in IAI's ability to continually provide our clients with the world's best capabilities."

If you are interested in supporting my writing, please visit my Patreon page to find out how you can donate as little as $1 a month to help keep me afloat: patreon.com/kristenforbes.
My month of gratitude is winding down and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention some of the most important people in my life: my friends and family.
If you want to find out who's really going to support you and stand my your side, I have two suggestions. One: Change your lifestyle. You'll find out who gets annoyed and who's totally cool about you no longer wanting to spend your evenings plowing through a bottle of wine and suddenly wanting instead to spend your weekend mornings running. If you're as lucky as I am, your friends and family will rally around you so much they'll throw you not one, not two, but three bachelorette parties and all three will feature the delicious homemade food, minimal alcohol, and fun activities that have become your hallmark since starting a fitness journey.
Two: Get married. It does not take two people to pull off a successful wedding. It takes a VILLAGE of people. And again, if you're as lucky as I am, that village of people will construct handmade decorations, put together floral arrangements, coordinate schedules, help you make decisions, help you make invitations, help keep you calm, and ensure that you don't really have to do anything on the day itself except show up.
There were times this year when I've wondered: Am I as fun as I used to be? When I come to the wine tasting and only sip on one glass throughout the entire evening, do people find me boring? Is it a letdown when I say no thanks to the super sugary dessert? Are people rolling their eyes behind my back when I tell them I have ANOTHER race next weekend?
But here's the thing: my friends and family have shown me that they don't care what I eat, drink or do, as long as I'm happy. Most of the people in my life know that I choose my moments of indulgence carefully, so the wine that shows up in my glass on a holiday won't also be there for a regular Happy Hour. Ditto for dessert and other decadent treats: I think by now most people know that I don't eat these things every day, so they appreciate the times when I do. At least, this is the sense I get from them. Everyone has been nothing but supportive of my choices.
My husband is obviously the M.V.P. in this department because he lives with me every single day. He witnesses all my moments: the late-night Sunday meal prep because I procrastinated going to the grocery store, the "No thanks, I'll stick to water" moments when we're watching a movie together, and also the "Yeah, I WILL have popcorn and dessert tonight, so let's cherish this for the rarity it is" moments as they come. This time last year, I would have been guzzling beer like you wouldn't believe. I'd be making nachos from an entire bag of chips. I'd be suggesting we start our Saturday with cheesy bagel breakfast sandwiches and I'd encourage laziness in all its forms – all-weekend movie marathon, here we come. Now I'm suggesting hot water with lemon as a cozy treat. Now I'm making lentil and butternut lettuce cups for dinner and tofu chops for lunch. Now I'm running six days a week and eating fruit and cheese for snacks and tracking my daily water intake. Now I'm turning down invites because I need time to go grocery shopping and meal prep. That's a huge lifestyle change. My husband has not complained once.
There's an easy trap we fall into when we find ourselves on a fitness journey. We start wanting to talk about it. We start trying to convince others they should be doing it, too – after all, don't they see how great we feel? Ask anyone who's ever gone gluten-free or taken up Crossfit: it's tough to keep it to yourself. I fully recognize how annoying this can be from the other side. But my family and friends have not complained. They try my healthy truffles made with dates and cocoa powder and they don't make "Ew, where's the sugar?" jokes. They're open to going to restaurants with healthier menus. They're open to going for walks together. They're open to hanging out with me sans alcohol even though Tipsy Kristen is, let's face it, probably more fun.
And my wedding? It was the most magical, memorable, meaningful, special day of my entire life and I truly did nothing but show up, get in a dress, and say my vows. My friends and family took care of EVERYTHING. I knew I'd be overwhelmed with emotion when I stood up at the front of the room with my husband, but I had no idea how touched I'd be when I looked out and saw friends from childhood, friends from college, aunts, uncles, cousins, people I've known five years, people I've known 33 years, people I knew in my hometown, people who traveled from the East Coast, people who traveled from another country, people who used to babysit me, people I now babysit for, old coworkers, old family friends: all looking back at us, supporting us, filling us with their love. The women who stood by my side as I got married were all women I've known for at least 15 years, and some were women I've known my entire life. They have been with me through everything. Breakups, moves, jobs, deaths in the family, everything. If even one of them hadn't been able to make it that day, I would have been heartbroken. But they all made it. They all showed up. I honestly didn't even know if I wanted a wedding – I wanted to be married without the huge ceremony – but once I was in that room with all those people I love so much, I realized I wouldn't want it any other way.
All of this is a longer-than-intended way of saying: I'm so grateful for the people in my life who have helped me become who I am and who have supported me no matter where I am on my journey. I'm a fiercely independent and introverted person but I know there's no such thing as going it alone and being happy. So to wrap up my month of gratitude, let me say this final thanks: Thank you, sincerely.

Wild Greens with Fried Eggs (+ My Cooking Journey)/
1 1⁄4 cups extra-virgin olive oil
10 scallions, minced
1 3⁄4 lb. mixed greens, such as nettles, lamb's-quarter, spinach, Swiss chard, and arugula, washed and minced
1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
1⁄2 cup chopped fennel fronds
6 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 eggs
Heat ½ cup oil in a 5-qt. pot over medium-high heat. Add scallions and cook for 4 minutes. Add greens, parsley, mint, fennel, garlic, and ½ cup water; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until greens are tender, 18–20 minutes. Remove from heat.
Heat ¾ cup oil in an 12″ skillet over medium-high heat. Working in two batches, crack eggs into skillet; cook, constantly spooning oil over yolks, until yolks are just set, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to a plate. Divide greens between plates and top each with a fried egg.
Diet "Assassinista'd" Baby
Wild Greens with Fried Eggs – A Case Study on the Ineptitude of Dieting
A low-fat diet would deter you from consuming this dish due to the fat content of the egg yolk and the use of olive oil. That's a shame because if you followed this diet, you would be missing out on key nutrients provided by the higher fat ingredients (monounsaturated fat, vitamin E, vitamin A, and vitamin D) and denying yourself a perfectly healthy brunch. In truth, you wouldn't be successful with your diet in the long run because a low-fat diet, like most diets, is not successful over time. What's more, low-fat diets are less effective than higher fat diets to keep off weight. Click HERE for source. What does this mean for my readers who are on diets or have tried and failed? You should stop dieting, pack in nutrient dense foods, and control your portions with mindfulness. Capish?

Forty years ago, on July 21, 1969, as reported in The Columbus Dispatch yesterday, a white dry cleaner shot and killed a black father on the Near East Side of Columbus, sparking several days of riots in the area of East Main Street and South 18th Street – the corner at which Greater Ohio's offices exist today in Columbus. In fact, the scene of the crime was a dry-cleaning store at 832 E. Main Street, which today is a vacant, grassy lot directly adjacent to our office building. This area has never fully recovered from these riots, and the surrounding neighborhood continues to be burdened with vacant lots and abandoned properties to this day.
This was a poignant piece of history that drives home the significance of Greater Ohio's mission. Greater Ohio is pursuing policies to better manage the problem of vacant and abandoned properties across the state and in our local communities, such as this East Side Columbus neighborhood. Currently, we are working to advance Ohio's land bank legislation to allow counties, cities, and neighborhoods an additional resource to help minimize the negative effects that vacancies cause as well as pursuing foreclosure prevention and vacant property redevelopment actions. These types of proactive policies are crucial, because it is clear that reactive policies often result in a situation where past burdens continue to linger into the future. We are curious about the histories of similar neighborhoods in our urban areas around the state.

Coaching women to effectively build and scale their online businesses over the years, I have seen a trend in some of the things that hold them back from truly reaching success. Because I choose to work with clients who truly have significant value to offer their own clients, I want to see them be successful and help those they work with. However, these common issues can hold them back from truly seeing that success.
Technology problems.
Many female entrepreneurs have solid, effective programs and services, but don't put them out there because they feel like they don't have the technology know-how to make the program perfect. If you are worried about the technology side of things, you have options. You can lean on a team like The Agency Side for things like that, or you can bootstrap projects yourself. In this instance, done is truly better than perfect. So put something together, gather a test group and start helping people meet their goals. As you get further along into your business, you can learn more or hire out when it comes to technology. Find someone who knows how to help you or put something simple together, then get out there and make people's lives better.
Insecurity with individual outreach.
Sometimes I see clients who are afraid to reach out to individuals because they don't want to seem salesy and slimy. Because network marketing is so prevalent on the web, this has become a real minefield. However, there is a way to reach out to individuals that is genuine and has their best interest in mind. An influencer who is willing to share your lead magnet with their audience, can bring in loads of qualified leads, that will eventually turn into your warm market. Without some individual outreach, you won't be able to grow your warm market. And remember, if you are providing value, people won't have a problem with signing up for an email list, or hearing about your offerings. So, be confident and reach out!
On a side note, if you are partnered with a network marketing organization, be sure you are adding value to those you are reaching out to, and not just looking for a sale. This makes the web a friendlier place for everyone.
Fear of lack of credibility.
Credibility is extremely important in today's market, but the women I work with already have more than enough credibility to be out there serving clients. What's sad is that there are so many out there with no background or training, offering all kinds of info and charging thousands for products, courses and coaching that are not actually going to help anyone. While there will always be someone out there who is smarter than you, you are more than equipped to help people with good programming and quality products. The key is to surround yourself with people who are more knowledgeable than you so that when you don't know the answers, you have some place to go. You don't have to buy the next online class, or spend tons of money on getting more prepared. You just need to start, and then surround yourself with people who have more experience and who are a few steps ahead of you. This way, you can use your knowledge as a base to serve clients, and you can continue to learn and grow by doing your own professional development and learning from those around you. Don't let the fear of lack of credibility stand in the way of forward motion in your business.
If you are a female entrepreneur, specifically in the wellness industry, don't let the fear of technology, individual outreach or lack of credibility keep you from truly growing your business. Go out there confidently, believing in your ability to deliver and the effectiveness of your product. Focus on providing value, outsource where you can, and remember that done is better than perfect.

It may sound daft considering how much I go on about it, but I've really started to understand the importance the Indian Premier League means to my year and I'm so glad I concentrated on how I would treat things differently this year before the tournament started.
We're only 1 week and 12 matches into the 76 game tournament but already it's been clear to me that trades need to be handled with careful timing and I need to be alert to other factors which I may have previously missed.
I alluded to this on twitter this week and got accused of 'dick waving' when I advised others who were trying to use normal cricket knowledge to think about this. That wasn't my intention as I was simply trying to point out that things can turn around very quickly (more than the usual T20 match) and it can pay off to be alert to what the players are intending to do. Confused? Well I was accused of being cryptic too so to help take a quick look at this clip from the 2nd innings from match 9 - in particular the last over of the match (skip to 4.40mins):
I had a good inkling who was going to bowl the last over and I was confident on how the finish would pan out. The result on this occasion went my way but this is only one example from a smorgasbord full of opportunities that have arisen. With so many matches left there will be plenty more.
Now a post of mine without a graph wouldn't be right so to finish off here's one of my progress to date in comparison to 2011. It also has quite an audacious pre-tournament target on there that I'm trying to keep up with. So far to go, but a good start (click to enlarge).

Re-Imagining the Publishing Industry/
In the past year, the U.S. consumer magazine industry has been reshaped in ways that will impact the industry for the next decade. This summer, there were leadership changes at all four top consumer magazine publishers – Time, Inc., Hearst, Meredith and Condé Nast.
First, David Carey of Condé Nast was tapped to succeed Cathie Black as President of Hearst Magazines (Cathie was elevated to Chairwoman). When David left his position at Condé Nast, Bob Sauerberg was promoted to President of Condé Nast (Chuck Townsend gave up that title, but retains the CEO title). Then, Jack Griffin, President of the National Media Group at Meredith, announced he was leaving. He was replaced by Tom Harty. And, now Jack is replacing Ann Moore at Time Inc. as CEO (Ann will remain Chairman until the end of September, then Jack will assume that title as well).
Also, in the past 18 months, several venerable magazine brands have been sold for nominal prices or shut down.
Weekly news and information magazines like Newsweek, BusinessWeek and TV Guide were sold for shockingly low prices, ranging from just $1 to $5 million. And, each of the top four consumer magazine publishers closed prominent, long-standing magazines. The most notable was Gourmet, which Condé Nast shuttered after 69 years of publication. Time Inc. closed Southern Accents (published since 1977), Meredith closed Country Home (published since 1986) and Hearst closed CosmoGirl (published since 1999).
Not that long ago, TV Guide and its related properties were worth $3 billion and McGraw-Hill reportedly turned down an offer of $1 billion for BusinessWeek during the past decade.
So, what's going on? In the 30 years I have been in and around the magazine industry I have never seen changes of this magnitude over such a short period of time.
First, the consumer magazine industry has just suffered through a severe recession that created a great deal of pain for 90% of the industry. Most consumer magazines saw revenue declines of 30%, or more, as advertising budgets were sharply reduced. When revenues decline that precipitously, it is hard for the expense-cutters to respond quickly enough to have much impact. Overnight, profitable magazines became unprofitable.
Second, the Internet is starting to wreak havoc for the media properties that are not transitioning quickly enough to digital business models.
The declines in revenues and profitability from the recession along with the impact the Internet is having have finally aroused the magazine industry to action. New leadership is in place and with it, a new way of thinking about the challenges ahead.
Over the next five years, I think the consumer magazine industry will continue to see unprecedented change. I am already seeing it. Just last week, a CEO told me they no longer think of themselves as magazine publishers because to do so is too limiting. They now see themselves as producers and sellers of content and products. Another CEO told me that his company is outsourcing its circulation department because "circulation" is no longer a critical function. It is now hiring experts in e-commerce in place of circulation executives.
The magazine industry has great opportunities ahead as long as it is willing to re-imagine its way of doing business. As new business methods are tested and confirmed, the industry will regain its footing and be in a position to prosper again.
Reed Phillips co-founded DeSilva+Phillips in 1996 and has completed more than 175 transactions during the past 18 years with companies such as Capital Cities/ABC, Inc., Condé Nast, Dow Jones, IDG, The New York Times Company, Primedia, Time Inc., and more. He is the winner of the "2007 Media Deal of the Year," presented at ACG's InterGrowth Conference by Mergers & Acquisitions. He was founder of Fathers magazine, Associate Publisher, The New Republic, Vice President, The Washington Weekly, Circulation Director, The Washington Monthly.

I didn't have the low-shot offers, people shopping outside their budget, or time wasting type of customer come to me at all from Bigeq.com. It made me wish I hadn't bothered with the ads on the other sites! The buyer for this horse was fantastic, the sale was fantastic, and Bigeq.com brought the connection to me! Super thrilled and will definitely use Bigeq.com for my future quality horse sales!
