Noontootla Creek Farms Academy
Noontootla Creek Farms is pleased to offer Noontootla Creek Farms Academy. The academy will address such material as found in a Survival School, Self Defense Training, Personal Preparedness, Safety, etc. We have wrapped up our class offerings for 2016. Watch here for next classes for 2017.
From our Fall 2016 Survival Series:
Noontootla Creek Farms is proud to welcome the winner of the First Season of ALONE from the History Channel, Alan Kay to host the classes for the Noontootla Creek Farms Academy.
Alan was born and raised in Georgia, where he spent the majority of his childhood in the forests making shelters with his beloved hatchet. His passion for the woods grew as the years passed, and by the time he was in his 20s, Alan had acquired the skills and mindset necessary to adapt and survive in any environment. In an effort to increase his understanding of edible and medicinal plants, Alan sought out and studied under a number of knowledgeable elders, all of whom helped to round out his growing skill set. He also spent time developing proficiency in the combative arts, including barehanded, stick, and knife fighting. Alan is a seven year veteran of law enforcement and has also been trained in tactical medical care. In 2015, Alan was able to survive for 56 days on Vancouver Island alone and unsupported. For the past 15 years, Alan has taught survival, preparedness, and self-defense skills. Empowering others with the skills necessary for true self-reliance is his passion.
Being able to survive in the great outdoors begins with the proper knowledge of what it will take to survive… The first and most basic of all needs are those to do with physical survival. This includes the need for food, drink, shelter, sleep and oxygen. Paramount to food and shelter is the ability to make fire. Noontootla will first offer a 3 Part series of survival classes taught by Alan in the academy. We are pleased to offer Edible and Medicinal Plants, Fire by Friction and Building Shelter in this initial series. You may enroll in all 3 or choose which individual class you wish to participate in. The classes are estimated to be 4 to 6 hours. Our classroom is the great outdoors.
Survival Series:
Sunday August 28th, 2016 1PM until 5PM
Edible and Medicinal Plants
Take a walk in your own backyard or in to the backwoods and you will be surprised what delicacies and remedies are readily available. This class will help you to be able to properly identify plants which will provide sustenance and treatment to enable you the opportunity to survive should conditions exist.
Sunday September 11th, 2016 1PM until 5PM
Fire By Friction
You are lost in the woods…you are without any means of heat…the temperature will be falling fast soon…you have a forest full of sticks/wood…what are you going to do? Alan will show you what to do! Considered one of the oldest methods to master is the ability to create fire from raw materials…Learning the right combination of material and technique will give you the skills necessary to build your own fire.
Sunday October 23rd, 2016 1PM until 5PM
Building Shelter
A person can survive days without water and maybe even weeks without food. However, most people don't survive the elements due to loss of body heat. In Fire by Friction, students were able to learn how to build a fire…Now, we will teach you how to build shelter sufficient to fight off Wind, Rain, and Cold to help preserve your body heat.
Each class is $100 each…OR you may choose to enroll in all Three for $250.
Important Tips:
- Please be sure you are ready for conditions appropriate for the environment and time of year here in the mountains of North Georgia. You will need to wear clothing and shoes suitable for outdoor hiking and participation in activities associated with this type of training . It is important that you also bring rain gear. (We will continue to host the class in the rain…your survival doesn't stop because you get wet). We welcome anyone 14 or older to participate.
- All participants will be required to sign a waiver (if under 18, it must be signed by a parent or guardian)
Other items to bring:
- Bottled water
- broad rimmed hat
- insect repellant
- snacks (no dining or convenience facilities on site)
- sunscreen
- If prone to allergies, please bring necessary Epipen, etc…

THAT GIRL: Here's what I have to say about Karol Collymore, the young-ish woman (above) who is currently out campaigning to sit in the seat of her old boss, Jeff Cogen, as a Multnomah County Commish (Cogen's now running for County Chair). I love her style. Love her smile. But most of all, I love her stand on the issues facing our community. That's why I joined a group of friends at a "House Party" in her honor on Saturday afternoon at the home of Judge Kemp and Eric Schnell. Of all the candidates running for that position I believe she has the most experience—in large part due to her years working with Cogen—to help out a county that could benefit from her fresh ideas and her boundless energy. She has what it takes, as one person at the party said, "Karol isn't really running for office, she's just running for a promotion."

OH, RICKY YOU'RE SO FINE: Never thought I would ever say the following words: Ricky Martin sent me a message (see above).
It came via Twitter and was a direct message from the Latin-heartthrob-who-just-came-out-of-the-closet to me.
Yes, me. I know! Hard to believe, right? And the fact it came on April 1st doesn't help.
But, here are the facts.
That evening I tweeted @theonetruebix with the following: "bout time U finally came out..what were you waiting for @ricky_martin ? It was in response to bix's tweet: "I'm gay." "I will make you gayer."
I never heard from bix. But, about an hour and half later I got the following message from Ricky: "im very happy! http://bit.ly/rmlife." The link goes to his website, specifically to the section where he comes out as a "fortunate homosexual man."
I freaked when I realized it was Ricky who responded. And, frankly, didn't believe it.
But word is Ricky's been following his Twitter account pretty closely ever since he came out.
Still, I have no clue why, out of the thousands of tweets about him, he decided to respond to that particular one.
So what was my response? Did I follow up with
No, I just said, "I am very happy for you, too!" He's already removed that response from his messages.
Sigh. Living La Vida Twitter.

MOVE OVER, DANNY BALDWIN: Is Randy Spelling, aka "Tori's little brother," moving to Oregon?
Randy is the only son of pioneering television producer Aaron Spelling (of Charlie's Angels, Dynasty, Starsky and Hutch, Family, Hotel, The Rookies, Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, The Love Boat, Fantasy Island, Vega$, Hart to Hart, The Colbys, T.J. Hooker, Nightingales, Sunset Beach, 7th Heaven, Charmed, Burke's Law, Honey West, The Mod Squad, and S.W.A.T. fame) and his wife Candy Spelling (who is perhaps best known for her "wrapping room" in their spacious Hollywood home).
Randy also used to be an actor starring in such illustrious films as Hot Tamale and Hoboken Hollow. Now he's a life coach based in the Los Angeles area. Or at least he used to be based in L.A. A very reliable source recently ran into Randy with his fiancee, a psychic, as the couple were planning their upcoming nuptials which supposedly will take place somewhere outside of Portland this summer.
OMG, "Donna Martin" is going to be in a bridesmaid dress...in Portland, Oregon! Where's my camera?

The following is a true story. It actually happened last night to Peter Zuckerman, above, the famed author and boyfriend to Mayor Sam Adams. It has to do with a Seder dinner being held at the West Hills home of Mother's Bistro chef, and fellow author, Lisa Schroeder and hubby Rob Samples, aka The Schramples. I've heard of people being lost in the West Hills, but this is ridiculous. Photos from the intended Passover dinner destination are at the end of Peter's "story."
Almost Passed Over
By Peter Zuckerman
To the directionally impaired, Portland's West Hills are a maze. Fortunately, I figured I'd made it to the home of Lisa Schroeder. A line of parked cars snaked down the road in front of a gorgeous home, and an open door and a sign that said "Shalom" announced I'd arrived at a Jewish household about to celebrate Passover. I went in.
"Welcome!" a man at the entrance said. "Come on in."
I smiled, shook hands with him and introduced myself.
"Peter!" the man exclaimed. "We're so glad you made it." He gave me a bear hug. I told him I'd brought some flowers for Lisa. He seemed pleased, and he introduced me to a guest.
The guest and I started chatting. "How do you know the hosts?" she eventually asked me.
"I don't, really, but I'm friends with Stephen and Lisa," I said. "Do you know where they are?"
"I'm sure they're around here somewhere. Have you met my daughter?"
I continued chatting with strangers for perhaps 10 more minutes. They asked about my family, and, a little surprised by the question, I told them my sister and brother-in-law had recently moved to Portland and that Sam and I were doing great. I asked them similar questions and nodded attentively, just as they had.
From the corner of my eye, I noticed someone setting another place at the table. Soon, we sat down to eat.
I scanned the seats but still didn't see anyone I knew. Where were my friends? Someone poured the wine, and I realized I had better not have anything to drink.
I stood up. "Um, I think I went to the wrong Passover," I whispered to the man sitting next to me.
I was hoping to sneak out the door before anyone noticed.
Too late. The man told the person sitting next to him, and laughs spread around the table until nobody could talk and everyone was staring at me.
Hiding my face under my hands, I didn't know what to say. The host, barely able to talk through his laughing, thanked me for coming, insisted I take the flowers back, tried to get me to finish the wine and invited me to return for dessert.
I scuttled to my car and eventually found the right Passover. At Lisa's, I drank a lot of wine and stayed for dessert.

CUCKOO FOR COCO: Okay, so this post went up on Twitter about an hour ago so take it with a grain of sea salt. Here is what it said: "is he really coming to Portland tomorrow night for a surprise tour stop?" He, of course, would be Conan O'Brien. And, yes, I find it very hard to believe if any of this gossip is actually true. That said, Team Coco will have to travel through PDX International at some time to get to his Eugene gig on April 12, correct? Perhaps he's pulling a Sade. It wasn't that long ago when the singer quitely booked the Memorial Coliseum for a couple of weeks prior to her American tour which launched in Portland. Maybe Conan's doing the same thing...without dancers...or backup band...oh...this just doesn't make sense, does it? But the whole Dave Chappelle thing didn't either. Hmmmm....

Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood. William Penn
What is the 10-20-30 Rule for Presentations?
Guy Kawasaki framed his 10-20-30 Rule for Presentation as:
10 slides are the optimal number to use for a presentation.
20 minutes is the longest amount of time you should speak.
30 point is the smallest font size you should use on your slides.
(Kawasaki was one of the chief evangelists and strategists for marketing the original Macintosh)
Attention Span is the amount of time the average person can concentrate on a task without becoming distracted. This consists of two elements. Focused Attention: which can be as short as 8-seconds; and Sustained Attention: which is the amount of attention that produces consistent results. This is usually 20 minutes before people need to refocus.
You may feel this is a very short space of time. However, this time limit forces you to be simple, to be direct, to be precise, and to eliminate or trim all of the unnecessary words we pollute our language with. "I'm delighted to be here" – may be polite but it does nothing to reinforce your purpose or deliver your irresistible value.
And remember Martin Luther King Jr. only needed 17 minutes to share his dream.
Do you have something more important to say?
If you are forced to speak for an hour, break your presentation down into three parts, or into three separate but connected speeches. When you do this provide a "Change-of State" in-between for the audience to move, to change position and to shake them out of their comfort zone.
This Thursday, February 16th and Tuesday February 21st LifeStylized is holding FREE Speak Like a Pro Intensives from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm. Register online at….
….or call Kevin at 1-518-932-7856 to get your free admission. The Life Stylized Center is at 444 Broadway, Suite 302, on the Third Floor, above Wheatfields Restaurant.
Join us for these FREE workshops where you will learn to be:
- more confident,
- more memorable
- more impressive
- more successful
… in ALL of your presentations!
Are you ready to get your message out with power and purpose?
Then this workshop is precisely what you need.

Four-year-old King Cairo couldn't choose just one costume for Halloween. The son of Blac Chyna opted for two disguises, both with links to the Kardashian-Jenner family.
The preschooler coordinated one costume with his dad, Tyga. The costumes were skeletons in black and white ensembles, which Tyga and his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner,shared on Snapchat.
"They are obsessed with each other," Kylie narrated a clip of father and son.
Over at his mom's house, King dressed like Rob Kardashian, Chyna's fiancé, who happens to be Jenner's stepbrother.
The tot sported black sweats and a T-shirt with an L.A. Dodgers baseball cap in order to capture the essence of Rob. He did a pretty good job, don't you think?
Chyna posted an Instagram video that shows her confirming King's costume with the little guy.
"King, are you sure you do not want to be the Ferrari man?" she asked in the clip. "What do you want to be?"
King answered that he wanted to be Rob, "cause I like him."
Apparently, Blac Chyna felt the same way, since the Rob & Chyna star also dressed as Rob at one point. She pretended to be Rob wearing an identical ensemble and pretending to shoo away the paparazzi.
Think everyone can get along this well at Thanksgiving?

The High-Precision Orbit Propagator (HPOP), developed by Microcosm, Inc. of El Segundo, CA, is a state-of-the-art orbit generator which can generate orbits for a wide variety of Earth satellites with accuracies on the order of 12 meters per orbit or better. It can handle circular, elliptical, parabolic, and hyperbolic orbits at distances ranging from the surface of the Earth to the orbit of the Moon and beyond, although orbits around the Moon itself are not currently supported.
The HPOP includes modern, ultra-high-fidelity models for all of the major perturbations affecting an Earth satellite:
- Goddard Earth Model (GEM) 10B, an advanced 21 x 21 spherical harmonic expansion
- Lunar-solar point-mass gravitational effects using the U.S. Naval Observatory Compressed Ephemeris to predict the positions of the Sun and Moon. This ephemeris is accurate to within one thousandth of an arc-second.
- Atmospheric drag using the Harris-Priester atmosphere model, modified to take into account the diurnal bulge, to compute the atmospheric density. The drag model assumes single-collision specular reflection, which is appropriate for most satellites. Departures from this can be modeled by changing the area-to-mass ratio of the satellite.
- Solar radiation pressure. This model assumes that the satellite is either a mirror sphere or a black body, which is appropriate for most satellites.
The HPOP also takes into account all of the major predictable motions of the Earth which affect the apparent position of the satellite:
- Precession of the equinoxes
- Nutation
- Diurnal rotation
- Barycentric displacement
Unpredictable Earth motions cannot be modeled at the present time, but fortunately these are small. They include polar motion, irregular variations in the Earth's rotation rate, and continental drift. Polar motion causes the poles to wander in irregular circles in a region about 30m square, taking many years to complete each circle. Irregular variations in the Earth's rotation rate can change the length of the day by up to 1/4 millisecond per year, but such large changes tend to cancel out over time, leaving a residual secular increase of 1.5 milliseconds per century. Continental drift occurs at rates of up to 5 centimeters per year.
The HPOP also accounts for the differences among the three major astronomical time systems:
- Universal Time Coordinated (UTC), also known as Greenwich mean time
- International Atomic Time (TAI)
- Terrestrial Dynamic Time (TDT), formerly known as Ephemeris Time (ET)
For ultra-high precision, the HPOP uses the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method of order 7-8 to integrate the equations of motion.
The HPOP requires the following input:
- Initial satellite position and velocity
- Satellite area-to-mass ratio
- Output schedule
It produces as output a set of satellite positions and velocities at equally-spaced times. Both input and output positions and velocities must be given in mean-of-J2000.0 coordinates.

Noun: Someone who creates a business where there was none before.
Lessons I have learned along the way …. So far.
1.) You can't do it for the money, you can't do it for the fame; you must do it for the love. Very true!…As long as it pays. If you follow your dreams and do what you love but it doesn't make money- your business will fail. Passion, determination, and focus will accomplish the goal. And if you hate what you do but it makes money…something inside of you will fail and so eventually will your business too. Don't settle. Make sure what you do has passion and profit! Passion + Profit + Patience.
2.) It is better to be a failure at something you love, than to be a success at something you hate. Neither success nor failure are final, but make sure your mindset is such that your desire to succeed is greater than your fear of failure. The sooner you can dismiss failures the closer you are to the ultimate goal. Thomas Edison said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." But what a wonderful joy when it finally does!
3.) Listen to everyone and anyone who has experience and insight. Women have a history of being open-minded and good listeners so that was a nice 'built in'. But never ever put what they say ahead of what you think! Always think for yourself and research, research, research then plan your course and stay on that course! … Go with your gut. Naysayers will line up when you start, but in the end they may be the ones coming to you to be mentored.
4.) Be intrepid. A business will feed off of your confident hits and misses better than uncertainty and waffling where to aim. As the slogan goes, "Just do it." This is not to say you should not have a plan, but once you have one just move forward. If making decisions is something you are afraid of…Go get a job.
5.) Have a partner. Now this is personal, but I swear by it. Women have always loved to collaborate. Historically women like to do things together from working together in the fields, to book clubs, to the stereotypical group trips to the ladies room. I was lucky enough to find someone who is my "business soul mate". Where I end…she begins. We share the vision… we share the passion …we share the work and know when to maximize each other's talents. To add to that, never do something that someone else can do better!
6.) Weigh every deal's pros and cons, and make the decision to go forward based on that balance. If the deal is a bust, the loss must be predictable and fixable. If the deal is a gain- it must be a tremendous gain! So take on opportunities that have the odds of success more than 50/50. As in #4… level headed risk taking is a "must have" for entrepreneurs.
7.) Customer Service is what it is all about. My business card says "Customer Service Representative." Part of our passion with our product is we believe we can and DO change peoples' lives. If you believe that, you truly feel a drive to get your product or service to as many people as you can. We have also learned that putting our personal stamp on our product means a lot to people. They don't want a celebrity endorsing our pillow, they want to hear about how our pillow helps people just like them. Marketing means nothing without customer service. The Logo is not what will make the customer come back, it's the answering of the 1-888 call and the active listening to why they can't sleep because of pain. The bottom line is only as good as the front line!
8.) Shaking hands is sometimes better than contracts. I have learned that there are a lot of great people out there, who really want to partner with you and to see you succeed as much as they want to succeed themselves. I have lost a lot of my cautious armor and have embraced many joint ventures with a warm handshake. Trust is important and hasn't failed me "often."
9.) Be organized. I can't stress this enough!
10.) Lastly, don't skimp on your equipment. Your desk, your chair, or your lighting. You will spend a lot of time using them.

Download Bible Concordance & Strongs apk 1.6 free for Android smartphone
Posted by Igor Apps in Books & Reference | Dec. 15, 2014 | 80 Comments
Apk file size: 16.0 MB
KJV Bible Concordance and Strong's Concordance.
I want to thank the wonderful people -Lynn Moore and lulu Couture (Maria) - who really helped me in the making of this concordance - a huge thanks to them!
It's almost "Strong's Exhaustive Bible Concordance", I made my own search by the Bible ( it supports search by several words)
Here you will find:
- Alphabet index of all words from the Bible (total in app 12839) ("the, and, of" are excluded - don't use them in search query)
- Bible Concordance - also you can search by several biblical words using space between them
- Strong's Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries with information from Hebrew and Greek Lexicons. Use numbers in search query to find them. Excluded some Greek words which not used in the Bible - G1400, G1418, G2717, G3203-G3302, G4452 and G5104
- Strong's Concordance- the concordance you find below information of the Strong's number
- All bible verses in concordance with clickable strongs numbers!
I hope this app will be your perfect companion in the study of the Bible!
Also I hope you will not have to carry a heavy book and spend much time on the search.
You need about 18Mb on your phone and about 47Mb on your SD card.
If you want to see concordance of another bible version or may be another language (without strong's numbers and concordance) - please let me know.
If you are annoyed about ads - try paid version "Bible & Strongs Concordance" which you find in my apps.
Feel free to contact me if you want to improve or have any problems with this app.
Whats new
remade app to fixed bugs which caused to crash app on some Android 2.3 devices

Wonderful App Wonderful app, I originally gave it a 4 star due to a feature that I thought was missing, however, the app creator quickly responded with an answer to my question so I am very pleased. It's so nice to have this app as I travel for work so it keeps me from having to lug around my book version!
Pastor Monopi
All said and done The following comments speak highly of this app, so I am speechless. Thank you guys and God bless you.
Jack Nersinger
Phenomenal! So much information and such a great interface. This of course is not the inspired Word of God but it certainly helps in understanding it better and in a small format! Give up the games and foolishness that cost non existent gold..... "and buy gold from Me tried in the fie" (Revelation 3:18 paraphrased)
Tim L
Excellent app; highly recommended Extremely functional, and very quick to use with the word search. I cannot recommend this enough for anyone that reads the Bible. Personally, I wouldn't mind a more attractive interface and smarter menu text font. These are minor things however, and do not detract from the quality of this app.
Stewart Brebnor
Studying The Word just got easier An easy tool to quickly index and precisely search and acquire information that would require a great deal of contextual analysis.
Malcolm Clark
Finally!!!! I have been waiting for an app like this for years. It is easy to use. Can look up the meaning of Hebrew and Greek words and see where else they have been used. Highly recommend for anyone who likes using Strong's Concordance. Well done developers it is just what I have been looking for.
Dragoro Dragozinho
Finally This is what I've been looking for. A straight up no fuzz concordance that gives me what I need and wouldn't be embarrassed to recommend to others who are into serious study.
Chris Toedt de Bastidas
Strongs Concordance and Vines Expository Dictionary are a great part of my Christian Library. Sincerely, PanamáCris

Best offline Bible Search engine. 1. I Wish to select and copy all found verses to my message note. But presently only one verse i can select..copy..2 . when you type j for Jesus. .it runs..to the words staring with j..it could be better. .if it waits till the word is typed fully. 3. Esv is also a very popular version to repeat this good work. May God be with you.
Michael Bryan
Well done! I've tried ebook versions of books like this and found them to be nearly impossible to navigate. This app makes research and study a breeze. It's a must for any serious student.
Mahala Brown
Like it but can't find simple stuff Like I wanted to look up something like relationship or courtship something Like that cause I wanted to see what the bible said about it and it didnt have anything sadly but otherwise its a good app!

Angie Tyson Martin
Upon initial use, I was not finding it easy to locate day to day information, searching for. Getting hang of upon review of app.
Gabriel Nuncius
Excellent but Excellent app but lately it always wants to open my browser each and every time I view the search results and sometimes when I start to type in a Strong's number. I now have to disable WiFi to use the app without these constant browser pulls.
Giovanni Joseph
Good enough Good enough to prove the lies propagated throughout history - or start that work!
AWESOME This is better than using the BIG thick book of Strong's Concordance!
A Google User

Biniyam Fikadu
Backbone for word study in exegesis It is one of the best applications I downloaded for Bible Study. It greatly helped me in my exegetical bible study and my study of the course Biblical Greek. Thanks & God bless U!
Nathan Fox
I don't like the fact that you have to search "EXACT" word What if I have a subject I want to search? But the exact wording isn't in the bible.
Carolyn Salas
Thank you So Much for creating this most needed tool Thank you so much for creating this most needed tool to rightly understand God's Word of Life! Ive chosen to not sit under the teaching of man. Now I Study God's Word on my own, but first ask for God to help me see clearly. God's Love has GROWN in me for even those who hate me :D (who can honestly say that without the Spirit of God in them...no one.) God is Love and IN HIM is no darkness. Amen <3
luke nyamukangarira
Great app and a wonderful tool for studying and understanding the Bible better. Well done.
oops sugarsorry
May God Bless you, its GREAT. I havent even really studied...anything yet seriously...however I looked up two words and was BLOWN away with the beautiful precision and accessibility of this app. Very very user friendly ... awesome simple search with tons of results. I love the extra movements where I can choose any other word in the verse where I am searching for my original word and look up another word and then go back to original search without losing my way. Thanx so much for this blessing from God through your hard work. Bless u.
Nefertari Jones
Pornographic app If this is supposed to be a Christian app why is there pornographic ads popping up on the bottom i understand reason behind having ads. But you really think it is okay to have a pornographic ad pop up while someone is usingvthis to study the bible. You are of satan. And i will share this info with the many churches i am afiliated with.
Igor you created a great but It needs work on device compatability If you place rotating screen and make this app work for devices with dual screen, you'll earn 5 stars from me and I'll recommend it to as many friends possible. I use a samsung tablet s
Lynn Carey
Missing so many verses on subjects Looked up love. Many verses were missing. Even I Corinthians 13:4 was left out. Very surprised by this.
Jashua Flores
A Suggestion I only gave 4-Star because I was trying to enter a phrase but it separated the words I put and gave me all the result of the separated words. I would suggest to allow phrases to be searched. Overall its a great app. Thank you and God bless. this app really helped me in searching texts.
Murray King
Mediocre app It's not flash or very functional but given its free will use it here and there.
Denise Neal
Bible and Concordance It is my life and my spiritual manual guide to living a Christian life down here.
satyam saladi
Pros. Best offline Bible Search engine. Cons. 1. I Wish to select and copy all found verses to my message note. But presently only one verse i can select..copy. 2. LEB / NET is also very accurate modern versions to repeat this good work. May God be with you.
Leta Woolard
Strongs on the go I have the hardback at home. Love having it on my phone.
Matt Hughes
Searching The only thing I dislike about the app is that you can't go straight to a chapter and verse. You have to do a word or phrase search to find the verse you want to examine and then it displays that verse only, not the rest of the chapter. Its a little cumbersome.
emojong amos
Good application This is the best thing among applications that i hv ever down loaded on my phone. Big ups to the designer for making this available to us. God richly bless u and make u even more creative. It is simple to use
Angela Corrigan
Concordance Absolutely a MUST HAVE! Words used in the bible often have a much different meaning than we believe today. For the real meaning of what the meaning of the word equals cannot be known fully without this wonderful addition
An H.
Great! Best free Bible concordance out there! Simple, easy to use, convenient for quick looking up and studying the Word on the go. *Thumbs up*
Joe Larkin
Thank God!! Finally a good concordance app... Very good and useful app. The only good concordance app that I have found and I have looked for years. God bless whoever runs and uses this app. Hosea 4:6 "My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge."
John Hudson
I just want to try to get connected with our Holy Father Through Christ Jesus and try to do my best to learn more about how to stay in the spirit that I can, and this app gets me as close to inside the publisher as I can get without being able to actually be there.
lwfmint E
FANTASTIC concordance!! This is by far the best concordance that I've found so far. It's very clean & precise & easy to use. Thanks for creating this app.
David morrison
Missing Definitions JOHN 21:16,17 Love is used as same definition from Jesus to paul. Incorrect they are different in original and changes whole verse. Argos (Gods love) to Philio (Mans love). WRONG
David Anderson
Great app The critics don't know what a concordance is. A concordance is a tool where you find where a particular word is found in the Bible by chapter and verse.
Shannon Preston
Good reference Why do some of the numbered entries have a star next to them, though? No way to find that out.
Helen Zapata
Just Perfect! I'm so excited! This is exactly what I was looking for. I love to dig deep into the Bible as I study and this app is going to be invaluable to me. Thanks!
Dan Sterling
A BEAUTIFUL WORK, BUT... I think it's time I expressed my appreciation for this amazing app. My parents had a Concordance, and it was HUGE and weighed almost 10 lbs. Now this one (exactly the same) can be carried in a tiny cell phone. I just recently figured out how to "Star" a search, so you can return to it again and again -- very useful! (One flaw: even if I find 100 referenced passages, and click "Select All" to copy the whole list, I AM ONLY ALLOWED to make a copy of ONE passage! Until this improves, I remove one star.)
Micheal Uzzell
how can one rate what one has not lived. to me it seems to work well. I still like the hard back better.
David Starr
Fantastic The best and most comprehensive concordance I have ever seen. Love the alternate translations as well
Jonah & Kai Lewis
Wow I'm impressed I'm in bible college and downloaded this app to help me dig deeper into scripture. This is a very accurate and helpful tool to have! It's good to double check, even when an instructor or pastor tells you what something means in the greek. They may or may not be accurately convaying the true meaning of the scripture. Great Ap guys!
Josh Walker
It OK but it has sensual ads. OK, just want to say I like the app, however numerous times I have seen sensual ads at the bottom of the screen. I've clicked the X button by it, and it goes away a little bit, but u can still see it. Please remove the ads please, this is too good of an app to have 3 stars.

justin pittman
Very, very useful! As long as you've got a King James bible app that you can switch back and forth from, you can really get a deeper insight as to what is being given in the scripture with this app. **One recommendation for future "bug fixes" would be to go back to the individual book reference for the searched when you hit the back button, instead of back to the initial disambiguation of the searched word in the whole bible.**
Bible concordance and Strong's They are the same as the Strong's Concordance. If you quickly need the meaning of a word, buy a dictionary. The concordance is for those who want to research. Hebrew & Greek have many variations on one word so you have to take time to study each variation & then put them together & you'll get the meaning of the scripture you're looking for. God's Truths are hidden in His Word!! I will pray to the Holy Spirit that he gives you the Patience & Wisdom to study the Lord's Words. God Bless You & Yours & Igor!
Colin Sean
Excellent resource A much appreciated study tool which allows one to more fully comprehend the true depth, beauty and power of The Bible. I only mention that there are some ads at the bottom of the page for war games. It would be great if these could be replaced with more friendly advertising. Thank you for this app!
Wonserlea Larquoi
Awesome Wonderful application! Great futures. This application even saved me lots of time. I don't have to go through the bible looking for references when writing my Sunday school lessons. Words are inadequate to express. Keep on the good job.
Remmel Mangao
Great Tool with an Achilles Heel I enjoy this app especially when I write sermons. It is what the title says it is: a Strong's Concordance. The only minor thing I wish this app had was a landscape orientation support since I mainly use this app on my tablet when I study the Bible
Elizabeth McElrath
Absolutely Love It I have used Strongs concordance for years. I couldn't find it this morning and didn't have time to search it out. I downloaded the app and I wish I had found this a long time ago. It is nice to just click the links instead of searching out pages.
Don d
Can't hide strong's I like it well enough, but the fact one cannot hide the Strong's numbers makes it rather cumbersome to use. That is the main shortcoming it has.
Todd Hager
I would be great if we could click on the root words to see what the mean. Being unable to do so prevents us from using this app for an in depth word study.
Brian Hood
Free Concordance Thank you so much for providing a free Concordance, I can't afford to buy one now. I recently lost every thing in a fire
Joseph Sandoval
BAD not all of the explanations of the words are consistent with the Hebrew and Greek which is VERY important !! the numbers seem to be right with Strong's... it is no big deal with other apps when they are not 100% but when it comes to the word of God IT HAS TO BE . sorry about the bad review but it's true
K Rodriguez
I just did a quick search I needed this at Bible class today but hadn't gotten the app yet. Just tried it now and it found the references quickly. This will be a great aid when someone calls for a scripture. Thank you developer for your work and app.
Lynn Moore
Very awesome KJV concordance and very well done! I strongly urge you to add this to your daily Bible study. Its so awesome to have this at my fingertips on my tablet & cellphone! Another great Christian app by Igor that I really love and am so thankful for! Thanks guys for a job well done and very much appreciated!
Dot Stahl
I've had this app for several years and use it all the time. I appreciate having it for my personal Bible study. Interactive searchable Bible concordance in a stand-alone app on my LG phone without needing an internet connection. I have used it for several years and love it!! I have a Roger's Thesaurus of the Bible that I use to do topical word studies, since that's not what a concordance does.

How to Celebrate and What to Expect for New Year?
It's the final week of 2011 which means we are just days away from the most-awaited New Year 2012. Last evening, some of my close buddies made a surprise visit to my house. We were enjoying a few TV programs on my newly-availed Dish TV service. Meanwhile, we were having a casual chat as to what to expect for this New Year. Each of us had different views and believe me, guys, the chat went on and on until it was midnight. But I have to admit it was an interesting conversation. Let me share some of the highlighting topics that we discussed last night.
No doubt, New Year is the most widely celebrated festival in the world. However, there have been mixed outlooks on the coming year from people all over the world; some feel this year might mark the end of the world while some feel there will be a good turn of fortunes and view this as a great year to come. Not surprisingly, each country has its own customs and traditions in celebrating the grand occasion.
Call it predictions or superstitions, there have been some serious precursors heading into the much-awaited year. According to the Mayan calendar (also known as the Big Calendar), the world will come to an end on 21st December 2012. Indians believe that the year 2012 could mark the arrival of an avatar (a God in the form of human being) to reorganize this world. According to the Ancient Egyptians, an unknown planet will hit the Earth in 2012 and this could cause huge catastrophes. Then there is a book titled "Prediction of Orion's" which claims that the electromagnetic field around the Earth will undergo radical changes which means all the electronic devices would stop working and this could spell disaster. A quote from the book "The Bible Code" states that a big asteroid will hit the Earth in 2012. Apart from the ones mentioned here, there are a lot more views flowing in from people all over the world.
Let me tell you my honest opinion. There is no need to get affrighted listening to these predictions. I'll give you a simple example. According to the Latin, octo stands for the number eight while novem stands for 9, isn't it? But if we are to go by what is there in our calendars, October denotes the 10th month and November denotes the 11th month while they should be denoting the 8th and 9th month respectively. Moreover, I'm pretty sure that nobody can exactly tell when the earth was formed; nobody can exactly say when life came into existence. Although people site the big bang theory as a reason for the creation of the earth, there isn't any conclusive evidence that the big bang expansion led to the creation of the earth. In fact, the theory itself is quite confusing to understand.
I'm not asking people to disbelieve these theories. I would neither say that these are myths nor would I say that these changes are going to take place. All I want to say is stop thinking about what is going to happen in the future and start thinking about the present as no one knows what's going to happen in the future. The best thing to do is to welcome this New Year just with a celebration like never-before, just like how we celebrate every New Year. Lets' think that this is going to be the best new year of all time. Some of you might take time to rewind the good and bad happenings of 2011. Be happy about the good things and take the not-so-good-things as a learning experience. One needs to have a positive outlook on approaching life.
Don't let go the festive mood. Go to Church with family, have party with friends, decorate your house like never-before, have good food, wear new clothes, take New Year resolutions and enjoy the grand occasion with utmost happiness. Take time before the New Year to think of what you can do to make this New Year special and memorable. You may take up resolutions like: try to mend broken relationships, be the best friend to your children and wife, and treat everyone with love. I wish all of you a great year ahead.

• Refinancing can save you thousands of dollars in interest and lower your monthly payments.
• It consolidates your student loans into one simple monthly payment.
• You need to have a good job and credit score to qualify for refinancing.
• You can apply and get your rate within minutes.
• We will donate to the Student Loans Guy Scholarship fund for every loan that is refinanced through our site.
Student loan refinancing may be one of the greatest inventions in personal finance. It allows borrowers in good standing to lower their interest rates and save significantly on their student loans. SoFi was the first company to begin offering this as an option in 2012, and others, like College Ave , LendKey , CommonBond , and Earnest , have followed. Since then, more than $20 billion in student loans have been refinanced. The average borrower who refinances has saved more than $17,000 on their student loans.
How Are These Companies Able to Do This?
Federal student loans are different from other financial products (for example, credit cards, auto loans, and mortgages) in that the government provides a majority of these loans, and it does not factor in your credit score and income when giving you a loan. Someone with a 500 credit score can receive the same rate as someone with an 800. This provides an equal opportunity for anyone to attend college, even if you have a low credit score or low income.
On the other hand, student loan refinancing companies reward borrowers with high credit scores and income levels. If you're in good financial standing. these companies will consolidate your loans for you at a much lower interest rate – allowing you to save some real cash on your student loans. You can refinance both your federal or private loans, and consolidate them into one loan at the new lower interest rate. If you're looking to refinance your federal loans, be aware that doing so would result in the loss of benefits from federal government programs like income driven repayment and Public Service Loans Forgiveness. However, if you meet the following criteria (especially for your private loans), refinancing is a no-brainer:
Who Should Refinance?
→ You have at least $5,000 in outstanding student loans.
→ Your credit score is at least 680.
→ Your annual income is at least $40,000.
→ You graduated from an accredited university.
→ You are currently employed or will be in the next 90 days.
→ You have a history of making on-time payments.
→ You are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
Check your credit score and see if your school is on the accredited university list.
The higher your credit score and income, the better chance you'll have to be accepted for refinancing and the lower your interest rate will be. If your income is over $40,000 and your credit score is above 680, you should definitely explore refinancing.
Comparing the Student Loan Refinance Providers
If you took care of your money and built your credit while you were in school, you're already on the right track. Student Loans Guy will help you find the best repayment program to get out of debt faster. Refinancing can also provides big savings: The average borrower who refinances their student loans saves more than $17,000 in interest.
We believe so much in the power of refinancing that we have partnered with the leading refinance providers, and will donate $20 to the Student Loans Guy Scholarship Fund for every loan that is refinanced through our site. Everyone wins – you save money and help someone else afford college, and our partners gain a great new customer. Check out our partners below.
Student Loans Guy is not a lender – the rates above are updated on a regular basis, but are subject to change. You can find the SoFi rate disclaimer here.
All of these companies offer a 0.25% discount on your rate when you sign up for auto-pay – this is included in the rates above. All of these lenders will refinance both private and federal loans as well as undergrad and graduate loans. You can also check your rates with each lender (with the exception of College Ave) without affecting your credit score.
Benefits of Refinancing
→ Lower interest rates
→ Lower monthly payments
→ Consolidating multiple loans and servicers to one
→ No origination fees
→ No prepayment penalties
→ Lots of savings and getting out of debt faster!
With no prepayment penalties, you can make payments larger than the minimum amount required each month and get rid of your loans faster. Since student loans don't have any prepayment penalties, we suggest making larger payments when you can, like when you receive a bonus. This will help you get rid of the loans faster. Even if you plan to pay off your loans as fast as possible, you'll still benefit by refinancing. Decreasing your interest rate by 1% could save you thousands of dollars.
Which Refinance Company Is the Best?
You should generally focus on finding the lowest rate possible, but you might also be interested in some of the perks that SoFi offers, like career support and networking events. We suggest sticking with the 5, 7, or 10-year term lengths unless you have a massive amount of debt, like medical or dental school loans. Other companies that provide student loan refinance (but are not currently part of our scholarship program) include Citizens Bank and Purefy. We will provide in-depth profiles and walk through the application process for each refinance company in a future post.
Should You Refinance?
To make your decision even easier, we've built a table comparing the rates on federal loans over the past 10 years with the rates currently being offered by student loan refinance companies. Assuming you meet the qualifying criteria, you should almost always refinance if you fit into any of the categories below:
You Should Refinance if…
- You have private loans
→ rates are almost always higher than federal loans
- You have graduate school loans
→ except if you work for the government or a nonprofit
- Your undergraduate loans are from 2010-11 or earlier
Compare Federal Interest Rates vs. What You Could Receive from Refinancing
When Should You Refinance?
The earlier you refinance, the more money you'll save. Even if you're on the lower end of the eligible credit score and income levels, it is worth refinancing now if you can get a lower rate than you're currently paying. You can always refinance again to an even lower rate if your credit score and income improve.
Refinance companies previously wanted to see a history of making your student loan payments on time before approving you. Now you can look to refinance your student loans when you graduate, as long as you have a relatively good-paying job lined up. Companies like SoFi will even honor your grace period, which means you won't have to make your first payment until six months after you graduate.
What's the Application Process for Refinancing?
1. Apply online with one of our lending partners.
2. See if you're approved.
3. Compare your options – rates (fixed vs. variable), term length, and monthly payment amount.
4. Choose your preferred loan offer.
5. Upload any verification documents and sign the paperwork electronically.
You will need to submit: your name, address, credit score, income, and school.
Some will verify your income or education after you are accepted and choose a rate.
Fixed vs. Variable Rates
Fixed rate loans have an interest rate that will never change over the life of the loan. This means your payment amount will be the same every month. You also know the amount of interest you'll be paying over the life of the loan. All government loans have fixed rates, and all refinance companies provide fixed rate options.
Variable rate loans have an interest rate that fluctuates over time. These are generally lower than fixed rates, but can change. This means that if your rate changes, so does your monthly payment amount. Variable rates are tied to the 1 month LIBOR rate, which has been historically low over the past seven years and will likely rise over time.
If you plan to pay off your student loans in the next few years, you're probably better off going with the lower variable interest rate. However, if you're concerned about variable rates rising over time and want to lock in your interest rate and monthly payment amount, you should stick with a fixed rate plan.
Our Student Loan Refinancing Calculator
To help you make the best decisions for your unique situation, we created the Student Loan Repayment spreadsheet. Download the sheet to input your own loan information – the amount owed, your interest rate, and term length. Our tool will then calculate your monthly payment amount and how much money will go to interest and to paying off your balance. You can also input different interest rates you could receive from refinancing to see how much your monthly payment and interest savings will be over the life of your loan.
Refinancing May Not Be for Everyone
If you don't meet the refinancing criteria and are having trouble with your monthly payments, you can always explore income-driven plans. If you work for the government or at a nonprofit, you can take advantage of Student Loan Forgiveness Plans.
For everyone else (approximately 75% of the population), you likely want to get rid of your debt as fast as possible and minimize the amount of compounding interest on your loans. If your interest rate is over 4 or 5%, you should definitely consider refinancing. We suggest paying down debt as fast as possible, but you might as well get a lower interest rate.
If you don't qualify for refinancing or forgiveness, your best bet is to make larger payments toward your higher interest loans for now, and work your way into a position to refinance.
If you've refinanced your student loans, we'd love to hear your story! We'll regularly feature a new Student Loan Story from one of our members in our Student Loans Guy newsletter.

How to get rid of cockroaches naturally
Cockroaches are a big problem where I live. One summer, I saw one crawling across the lobby floor of the Ritz Carlton. If you have cockroaches, its going to be hard work to get rid of them. It's needs consistent effort on a daily basis, until they are gone.
Spraying toxic chemicals all around your home and kitchen is not healthy. So many people are getting asthma, cancer and either illnesses and toxins are often the cause.
Here are 8 things you can do to get rid of cockroaches naturally.
1. Take out your trash every day.
2. Make sure that you don't have any food or water lying around anywhere. If I am too lazy to wash my dishes or put them in the dishwasher, I put them in the freezer and clean them when I get home. You cannot have any crumbs or any water pooling anywhere.
In order to get rid of cockroaches naturally, you should have no food source for them at all.
3. Put all of your flour and other food products in airtight containers. I used to be so sensitive to chemicals, I used glass containers to store products. Now I can use Ziploc bags.
4. Make a spray from salt water, peppermint oil and cypress oil. Acacia cypress oil is available online or at some health food stores. Peppermint oil is a good deterrent. Put about 20 drops of each in a two ounce jar, and spray that anytime you are in your kitchen or the problem area. It is great because it is not going to hurt your food. If you have a problem with mice, use peppermint oil, they do not like it.
5. Clean out all of your cabinets and drawers thoroughly. You can steam them in hot water and you can add the peppermint spray. This is in the central step to get rid of cockroaches naturally.
6. Make little roach traps with boric acid , flour, and sugar mixed together. Use 50% boric acid and 50% sugar. Roll that into a little ball and then in confectioner sugar or regular sugar. Put that in the corner and the roaches will eat it and die. Boric acid is not toxic to human beings. It has a scary name and you certainly do not want to eat it, but it is considered non toxic. .
7. Get rid of all papers, excess paper bags, anything you are not using. Roaches like to hide in the small spaces. De-clutter. Make sure you wash your carpet and your floors as often as possible.
8. Smudge your area with sage and ask the cockroaches to leave your home. Tell them to go somewhere else where they will be much happier! Do clearings according to your own religious or belief system. The smoke can't hurt!
I know it seems like a lot of work. But it its a similar amount of work even with chemical sprays. This holds true if you live in an area with really bad cockroaches. Some areas may just require a little peppermint spray as well as keeping your place clean. It's very wise to get rid of cockroaches naturally. As a society, it would be great if we stopped poisoning our own environment. Living in a non-toxic environment, we are going to feel much more happy and well.
I do non-toxic consulting. I also help people with chemical sensitivity and have written an easy to understand detox book on sale through Amazon and ebook on my website.

Where To Buy: Simpson & Vail
Product Description:
The medium-brown leaves brew to a greenish-brown leaf, with a flowery aroma. The amber cup of Java Kertasarie Estate is medium-bodied, brisker tasting than a Ceylon and has a flavorful infusion with a delightful oak cask aftertaste. Brew tea at 212º – steep for 3 minutes.
Tasters Review:
I'm revisiting this tea EARLY this Monday Morning – and let me tell you – this tea is MEANT for Monday Mornings!
Java Kertasarie Estate is a wonderfully bold, black tea. It's full of flavor and surely helped me wake-up when I really didn't want to.
Each time I have tried this tea I have picked up on the notes of oak which is unique yet tasty.
This time around I noticed the floral notes in the beginning of the sip and a more masculine/woodsy finish. A nice solid tea that both men and women will enjoy! Not too girlie – yet – not overly rough and tough. Although, I might say, more masculine than feminine, but I'm ok with that!
I think I like this one specifically for the boldness! I tend to infuse more than the amount suggested because I like bold teas and this one certainly is. It's like Black Tea…to the 2nd Power!
All I need now is a New York Style Bagel with Cream Cheese! My morning would then be complete! Thank you for another great tea S&V!

Big Story
Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'BioShock' started by m558, Aug 29, 2010.
Can you not start a new game with all your upgrades after beating it once?
No, to both games.
There ought to be a "New Game Plus" option for the first BioShock, though that may be specific to the PS3 version. Do believe that, shortly after the introductory section(s), players will be able to use the majority of what they gathered in their previous playthrough(s).
This does not seem to be an option in BioShock 2, however, as it might 'break' the game in several places, due to the way it is designed. For instance, an early level in the game necessitates that the player obtain a certain Plasmid to be able to advance to the next stage. Should a player already have it, they might easily circumvent the level entirely, thus creating something of an issue.
Hope this helps.
Same for Bioshock 1, like in the Medical plaza.

Kate Boy first emerged, fully formed and seemingly from nowhere with the sonic blitzkrieg of Northern Lights, a song so disarmingly amazing its reach spread across the internet like wildfire. With a moniker that purposefully plays around with gender roles, press shots that experiment with androgyny and a debut, self-directed video for Northern Lights featuring an undulating visual representation of the band almost as one character, it felt like the emergence of a fully formed statement of intent. Made up of Australian, Kate Akhurst and Swedes, Markus Dextegen and Hampus Nordgren Hemlin (formerly of Rocket Boy, hence the name), Kate Boy isn't a solo female pop act. Kate Boy are a unit who collectively take full responsibility for every aspect of what goes out under their moniker, be it audio or visual. "We are a band," Kate says. "We share everything."
The story of how this entity was formed can be defined by one word; serendipity. Having signed her first publishing deal at the age of 16, Kate had fallen into a rut of writing for others, be it in Australia, LA or, more recently, in London. Over in Stockholm, meanwhile, Markus and Hampus were busy producing, tailoring their sounds to whoever they were with at the time. "I'd been living in LA for four or five years and writing for other people and I just kind of hit a wall with that," explains Kate. "I wanted to be more creative and not work within the frames that I was given. I wanted to shake things up and because I loved Swedish music and part of my family, generations back, came from Sweden, I thought 'I'm just going to go over'. Basically loads of our mutual friends then said the three of us should meet."
With a flight booked back to London from Stockholm for the next day, the three initially just hung out, chatting about mutual musical inspirations such as Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, Grace Jones and Brian Eno, with none of them consciously looking to form a band. Soon enough music started to be made and fairly quickly something magical started happening. "We were making music that none of us expected to be making ourselves," continues Markus. "Everyone was bringing out a surprising side of each other. We're very different in our musical backgrounds and it all seemed to solidify. It felt like music none of us could make on our own." The rush of discovering their own style - a sort of sonic fusing of the organic and the metallic wrapped up in gloriously catchy melodies - was almost overwhelming. "I think when we wrote the songs, we loved them so much and we instantly realised that we had our own sound," says Kate. "It was just about making music we wanted to make and nothing else", agrees Hampus. That first night together ended with the three of them writing a song - Northern Lights. "It has a different meaning for me now," Kate says with the broadest smile on her face. "It means so much".
Keen to cement this seemingly once in a lifetime opportunity, the trio started referring to the band as Kate Boy. "We loved that it was a bit of a question and we loved that it was mixing genders," explains Kate. "We didn't feel like a band where there's a drummer, a guitarist etc. We felt like one unit from the beginning and each of us felt like they couldn't do it on their own, so this sort of Kate Boy character was formed – like another person that was made up from us." It also bled into their live shows, which after Northern Lights were booked all over Europe and North America. "We liked that feeling of being a whole unit and that's why we wear the same stuff on stage. We really like this element of it being like a uniform."
Having taken the time to properly work on the songs and not rush things following their explosive start back in 2012, the band feel prepared for what's to come. "At the start we did everything and thought 'let's just put it out ourselves'." Now signed to Fiction, they're finding the benefits of allowing some of the work to be done by other people. "We did everything on our own at the start because we had no choice, but now we've had some stuff out we can work with other people, but we still need to be happy with it. Every aspect – from writing lyrics on a song to what we're wearing – we see them as equal," continues Markus. "It's such a cool feeling when someone else in the band comes up with something you would never have thought of. It helps us cover more ground."
With their forthcoming album self-produced and recorded in Stockholm, i.e. the capital of pop, Kate Boy aren't afraid to unleash an almighty chorus. But while pop's current obsessions seem to be with singing about dancing up in the club or sipping on some bub, Kate Boy's songs deal with the unifying pull of self-empowerment, of trying to bring people together as one giant bundle of energy. This is shown on the joyous mesh of electronics that is the pogoing The Way We Are ("just like live wires we all need plugging in") and on the sky-scraping Higher, sample lyric, "we're different but still the same, move your mind to a higher state". "We speak about these things everyday" states Kate, "and we just didn't want to write a song about being in the club and love and all of that. Why not write songs about what we really care about right now?"
It's not just with their lyrics that the band are keen to look outside of the box, but also with the intricacies of the music itself and the way they present it. Bonding over a mutual love for the Fairlight CMI – a digital sampling synthesizer from the late 1970s used by their musical heroes that basically means you can make music from any sound,– and obsessing over and building their own synths. Their music has the electronic warmth and texture that only comes from vintage instruments. For their unique, visual aesthetic inspiration is taken from the likes of Finnish artist Pia Mannikko, painter Franz Kline, photographer Serge Najjar and filmmakers such as David Cronenberg and David Lynch.
Their experience of playing live to ever-increasing crowds has also filtered through to the songs. "When you see people singing along to songs we've written and we see them singing along to something with an important message, it's so empowering for us," says Hampus. This vitality and joy at simply being alive is epitomised in single Self Control, a percolating electronic swirl peppered with delicate production flourishes that suddenly launches into a joyous chorus of "free yourself, don't let nobody take control". Elsewhere on their forthcoming debut album, they create icy drama on When I Was Young and deal with the destruction of the environment on Temporary Gold. "That was inspired by a time we were in Australia and we saw that they were going to dredge all of the mining over the Great Barrier Reef and it would die" explains Kate. "It had been approved and part of me died. We have to write about what we're passionate about."
Asking Kate Boy where they see themselves in the future leads to a fairly unsurprising answer given the perfect happenstance of their creation. There's a brilliant sense of living in the moment that seems to permeate everything about them. "I've changed my thinking completely," says Kate. "I always used to think 'right, I'm going to do this and then do that' and I'd plan so far ahead and then it would never happen that way, which would make you feel unsatisfied. Now I'm embracing that day by day thing and not thinking like that." "The lesson we've learned from this is don't plan anything," the three of them say in perfect unison.

Social Media Highlight: Digg…Can you add an 8th category termed 'social good?'
Ever see an image similar to the one on the left and get excited when you recognize one of the many images? You're feeling really good if you can recognize two of them. Three of them and you're on top of the world.
There are numerous social media sites and applications. This is why I am going to start another series…I like series-i. (plural for series?) =) In addition to telling you about the site/place/platform/application…I'm going to sign-up, use the app for a couple of weeks and offer a reflection on my thoughts and experience.
Today, let's learn some more about Digg.
Name: Digg
About: In 2004, Kevin Rose started Digg, a social media site where users can find and share content from anywhere on the web from news articles, blog posts, podcasts, images and videos. All the content is submitted and voted upon by users. The higher the number of 'diggs' the more popular and valued the content is valued by digg's users. Today, Digg has over 500,000 users and 8.5 unique visitors.
Use: If content receives enough 'diggs,' then it is moved to Digg's front page. Digg also enables one to comment and give shouts about content. There are currently 7 categories a user can submit content to: technology, science, world & business, sports, videos, entertainment, and gaming. Digg also has a Digg Lab, similar to the Google Labs concept, in that it offers new tools and a deeper view of Digg.
Demographics: This article offers a nice visual representation of Digg's dems. Some say Digg is in trouble and others say Digg is the next big company to get bought up. Some say it's demographics are too narrow. Others say that its large male-base of followers will perpetuate Digg's growth. I'm just here telling you what Digg is.
My Vote: I give Digg 4 out of 5 wings.
- Good: I like using digg the more I, well, use it…which is usually typical when I begin using any type of social media. Unlike some social bookmarking sites, Digg lets me get feedback and hear more from peers about the type of content I submit to it. And, I get to see/read what peers find interesting which helps me find new and interesting content.
- Bad: Call me a novice, but it's a little too complicated. With all the social networks out there, I feel like it's trying to be too much and isn't focusing on what it's really good at – users submitting and rating content. Also, a big kicker, is that I asked for my age to be private on Digg, and despite me checking the box for my age not to be shown, it continues to be shown. Hmm. This is a big turn-off for me.
Social Marketing and Digg:
- Numerous social marketing and nonprofit stories are submitted to Digg everyday.
- One way to further the movement, submit more of these types of stories.
- Digg more of these types of stories.
- Contact/Email digg and ask them to add a nonprofit, charity, philanthropy, community or social good category.

"Chalet Lines" as a "shockingly funny journey through 5 decades of birthdays, weddings and hen dos which asks can we ever really cut the apron string that ties us to our parents?"
In the first half hour, as the characters established their roles in the celebration of Nanna's 70th birthday, at a holiday camp, I almost began to think this was going to be quite a safe, pedestrian play. Then as family tensions began to emerge, jealousies, disappointments, in the party that wasn't going to be, and the lives of these women, the tone of the play changed. I was drawn into the emotional games some women play. I was particularly affected by the mother, Loretta, played by Sharon Percy. Sharon didn't have that long to jump into this part but she grabbed it by the neck and bitch-slapped it into the venomous, manipulative woman we all love to hate. And sorry Sharon…you made me hate Lorretta! I should have had more empathy, after all she was a product of her mother's errors, her grandmother's direction of her mother's life & her envy of her sister. But I found it hard to, she was so despicable, and also funny!
Ann Ridley had an interesting role. All the actresses had to play themselves at 3 different ages, but Ann had to do this from her 70th birthday down to the pregnant teen bride. When this was done down in London (different cast) reviews were mixed, the wisdom of having the same actress playing the young and older woman was questioned. I think in this production it worked. Ann did a fabulous job. Donald McBride played her bitter, controlling mother in a darkly comic, but also touching way.
Sammy T Dobson made her stage debut, having in the past worked in Film, TV and Radio, playing Jolene, Loretta's daughter. Jolene is the likeable, pretty daughter, a little bit free with her affections, but just looking for a husband, because that's what girls are meant to do, isn't it? Sammy did a great job on this role.
Viktoria Kay plays Abigail, the tortured, musically frustrated daughter in the "perfect marriage" to a husband who seems to prefer the company of his mother in law. Her only ally seems to be her auntie, Paula, played by Jill Dellow, and favoured by Nanna over Loretta, as she was the "wanted" baby.
The set was an abstract representation of the seaside holiday camp. At times I was worried someone might fall off the edge, adding to the tension! I cried while watching this play. I saw situations there that we all see at sometime in our lives when in the company of women. The past has a habit of catching up, and messing with the future. And women can be so, so….bitchy!
I recommend this show for a night out. Live Theatre, as I keep on saying, is a great drama venue. The staff were friendly and helpful in the reception, in the bar and helping people to their seats. "Chalet Lines" is on at the Live Theatre until 6th October. Tickets are available here: http://www.live.org.uk/whats-book/chalet-lines . Souvenir copies of the play text are available from the "Chalet Reception" and the "Redcoats Bar" including a free specially made stick of rock!
