When you first mentioned the retreat, I just blew it off, because my husband rarely gets weekends off; what were the chances of that being the weekend of the retreat? Well, God knew. As you know, we were struggling, to the point of divorce. Not what either of us wanted, but we just didn't know how to go forward, and quite frankly just sort of gave up. For him to sign up for the retreat was HUGE. We were blown away with how simple the information was, how easy it was to receive, but the powerful punch it gave. We were both hit between the eyes, but with the excitement of finally "getting it."
I would like to tell you again how meaningful the weekend was for us. We had separated and were on our way to divorce. We are trying again. So the weekend meant so much to us, it gave us hope, love, and respect. Several of the couples that were there last weekend have been praying for us and I know that God intervened and put us back together.
I have learned a tremendous amount about being the type of man, husband, and father that I need to be for our son.
I just had to tell you how much this past weekend meant to my husband and I. This I think is the answer we had been searching for for the past 30 years.
I believe this has been a major turning point in our marriage! We have just been astounded by what we have learned and are having fun learning how to implement it. I believe with all my heart that this is something that every married couple needs to hear (especially Christians)!
The "Truth of the weekend that has transformed me most" has been the deep realization that respecting my husband is my duty, obedient response, and requirement to my God who is my Lord, and my life. It is so helpful. This teaching on respecting my husband, I knew in my head, but I did NOT know it in my heart and I did NOT understand what it meant to live it out. It has transformed my attitude about my husband and my marriage. I cannot imagine that our marriage would have such a fresh start and be so totally improved. Praise God.

Twitter is a social media site that permits you to post short, concise status updates, or "tweets," regarding important information about your business. As a business proprietor, tweets are an excellent method to spread your message about promotions, coupons, company policy updates, industry news and business changes, and even to ask for feedback and input through your customers. Just as with any type of marketing plan, marketing through social networking outlets such as Twitter is really a numbers game. The more followers you've got, the more popular you then become, and the more your business's online reputation grows. For that reason, it is very important increase your Twitter following as much as possible. Here are 5 easy ways to increase your Twitter followers for your business:
1. Request retweets. Retweets are when your followers like something you tweeted so much that they repeat it as being one of their own tweets (giving you credit, of course). Make sure to tell your followers how important their thoughts are, and ask they share your news with their followers in the form of retweets, so that their followers can start to follow your Twitter page.
2. Put plenty of thought into your page bio. When you consider that a lot of your followers won't know you or your business personally, it is clear how important your profile bio is to making an impression. Get your business's message across and pique peoples' curiosity with an accurate and appealing bio.
3. Supply the url to your Twitter profile on everything and whatever you can. You ought to include your Twitter link in emails, on your business cards, on your company website, on your blog site, and in every other social media site you use in promoting your business. Moreover, integrate your Twitter account together with your other social media accounts so that your tweets are viewed across a multitude of Internet outlets.
4. Post photos. Pictures that are tweeted are highly apt to be shared by your followers, and are a great way to personalize your followers' Twitter experience with your company.
5. Involve yourself in discussions about the latest trending issues. Issues that are trending are topics that are having the most conversation on Twitter. You can look-up trending topics through search.twitter.com and, when you find one that relates to your industry or business interests, you can jump into the discussion in order to get recognized by a totally new set of Twitter consumers.
Twitter is an invaluable business marketing tool that, when used the right way, can exponentially grow your business's online presence and increase your customer following. Make the most of your Twitter account by putting it in the hands of professionals and contacting us.

How the Oren Burks Trade Defines the Middle of the Packers' 2018 Draft
A little while back we introduced the Draft Trade Tracker, which keeps tabs on every draft-related trade the Packers have made since 2008.
The most recent draft gave us a few new additions, and while each have their interesting points, let's focus for a moment on the trade that brought the Packers Vanderbilt linebacker Oren Burks.
In this week's episode of Blue 58, I described this deal as the trade that could define the middle portion of the Packers draft. In it, the Packers sent the 101st and 147th picks to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for the 88th pick, which they used on Burks.
This trade isn't just about Oren Burks
There are several interesting takeaways from this move.
First, it's an interesting use of the second of two 2018 picks acquired by the Packers in their trade with the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans gave the Packers pick 147 as part of the package they used to move up to select Marcus Davenport 14th overall. The Packers therefore avoided using one of their existing draft picks in the trade for Burks, spending only capital they acquired elsewhere.
Second, the 101st pick also has some backstory. It's one of the selections acquired by the Packers in the Damarious Randall/DeShone Kizer deal. In that trade, the Packers swapped positions with the Browns in the fourth and fifth rounds. If they hadn't, the cost to move up for Burks may have been higher, perhaps requiring an additional fifth round pick.
Third, this trade may only have been necessary because of the Packers trading up to pick Jaire Alexander with the 18th pick. The Packers sent the 76th pick to the Seahawks as part of the package of three picks they used to move up in the first round. Had they stayed at 27, it's possible they may have been able to select Alexander while keeping pick 76.
It's hard to say if that's true or not, but there's a second part to that particular element of the trade. Had the Packers not traded up for Alexander, it's possible they could have accomplished the exact same things in the draft while also filling up some other roster holes with the picks they used to go up to get Burks.
Not trading for Oren Burks could have yielded a similar — or better — result
In our preview to the 2018 NFL Draft, we named both Ian Thomas and Micah Kiser as good athletic fits for the Packers. They also happen to fit in nicely with what the Packers seemed to need heading into the draft: a blocking oriented #2 tight end and help at inside linebacker.
Had the Packers stood pat in the first or even decided not to trade back into the third, their overall haul in the draft may have been equal to or greater than what they ended up with.
For instance, had they not traded up for Alexander and gotten him at 27 (a potentially big if, but stay with me), their draft could have looked something like this:
- 27 - CB Jaire Alexander
- 45 - CB Josh Jackson
- 76 - EDGE Rusher or LB Oren Burks
- 101 - TE Ian Thomas
- 147 - EDGE Rusher or LB Micah Kiser
The Packers could have taken Burks at 76 or opted for an EDGE rusher while still picking up Kiser at 147, or vice versa.
It should be noted that Burks is probably a higher upside prospect than both Thomas and Kiser. Thomas, while large and fairly athletic, was not productive in college. And Kiser, though productive in college, is not particularly large or athletic. Burks has prototypical size for a modern inside linebacker as well as the athleticism of a much smaller man. It's possible that this deal could someday look like a no-brainer.
In any case, this trade will merit watching for years to come. Keep referring back to our trade tracker as we keep an eye on the players the Packers got (and the ones they could have gotten) over the next few seasons.

My raging Saturday consisted of buying vegetables, visiting my Nana, cooking vegetables, going to see an animated Pixar movie with my parents where I then wept when the imaginary friend got forgotten and then coming home and giving myself a wax. It was so raging. I could have joined the party upstairs but instead I put my ear plugs in and went to bed so that I would be well rested for my early morning spin class. Judging by the number of people who liked my look how raging my life is..not post on Facebook it would suggest I am not alone.
We are doing this 21 day Les Mills gym challenge at work hence the vegetables and spin classing. We all had to go in and step on the magical scales that told us that most of our bodies were made up of wobbly fat. My number disturbed me so just as I was coming off the Junk Free June buzz I am back on the bandwagon. I have just over three weeks to reduce my body fat in the name of corporate competitive glory.
People not doing the challenge ask what the prize is for winning. That eternal glory is enough for me oh that and transforming into a babe just in time to wear skimpy Brazilian bikini bottoms when I venture off to South America in late August. Other than that I don't think there is a prize.
In honour of this challenge the last week I have been going hard on the broccoli, steamed kumara and chicken breast. My fridge has 4 massive heads of broccoli, two heads of cauliflower, baby spinach, kumara and a freezer full of individual portions of chicken tenderloins. I know it wont take much time at all for my soul to feel wounded from the lack of cake and repetitive dinner options so I have been exploring my multitude of cookbooks for healthy, well balanced, reasonably low carb meal ideas. I came across this recipe for roast vegetable salad in my Ripe, A fresh Batch book by Angela Redfern.
It was clean, lean and full of protein (once I added chicken to it). Hey I've gotta use up those frozen 'loins, that and I needed another word that rhymed with clean.
Its actually really easy to make and I feel like its a good 'un for the week's lunches. Roast up a big lot of vegies on a Sunday and each night just toss them together with some baby spinach, chicken pieces, coriander and a dollop of the dressing. Wham! You have lunch that doesn't consist of porridge or some unidentified green soup day in and day out. Also the vegetables that this salad calls for are ALL in season at the moment so get amongst.
Spicy Roasted Winter Vegetable Lentil Salad
Adapted from Angela Redfern's Ripe Recipes - A fresh batch
Serves 4 (like hell you are going to share it though)
1 400g can brown lentils, drained
2 medium sized parsnips, sliced lengthways then into thirds
3 medium sized carrots, sliced lengthways then into thirds
4 fist sized kumara (sweet potato), cut into small wedges
Half a head of cauliflower, cut into florettes
1 small bag baby spinach leaves
1 large handful of fresh coriander leaves
1 teaspoon ground chilli
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/4 cup sweet chilli sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
Juice of half a lemon
Salt and pepper
Yoghurt dressing
1 1/2 cups greek yoghurt
Small handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped finely
3 small cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce
2 teaspoons curry powder
Salt and pepper
Chicken (optional)
800g chicken tenderloins (or breast cut into chunky strips)
1/4 cup sweet chilli sauce
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground chilli
Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup water
Salt and pepper
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees on bake and line a baking tray with baking paper.
To make the roast vegetables, mix together the sweet chilli sauce, olive oil, curry powder, cumin and chilli together in a large bowl. Add in all the chopped kumara, parsnip, carrot and cauliflower and toss to coat in the spice mix. Spread out onto the baking tray then bake for 30-40 minutes until the vegetables are soft and starting to brown at the edges. Remove from the oven.
To make the yoghurt dressing just mix together all the ingredients.
To make the chicken, mix together the spices, sweet chilli and water then add the tenderloins and stir to coat, season lightly. In a frying pan set to a medium heat, pan fry the tenderloins until just cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them and dry them out.
To assemble the salad, start by tossing the vegetables in a couple of spoonfuls of the yoghurt dressing. To my plate I started layering on the baby spinach leaves, drained lentils, coriander leaves and roast vegetables then dotting a few blobs of dressing around here and there. Toss the pile of vegetables lightly to gently mix things through. Top the salad with a few tenderloins, a good squeeze of that half lemon and a dollop of yoghurt dressing and serve whilst still warm.
Enjoy x

I was born into a family that considered itself as Christian. I studied up to the intermediate grade and also took technical training and was certified as a craft instructor. While serving as a craft teacher, one day I came to know about a Christian revival meeting in our village. I attended Sunday School as a child but I was not saved. Until I attended this meeting I had no repentance. When the altar call came I went and knelt before God, confessing my sins and accepted Jesus as my Savior. Jesus then commanded me to do His work.

Welcome Vinylmation Tunes But We Are No Longer Having A Laugh
Today saw the arrival of the first four of the new Vinylmation Tunes series and. it seems, the departure of another. For the first time we have had chance to take a proper look at the actual Tunes and the box it arrives in. As we expected, the new series is open box.
The first four in the set are now available from the Disney Store website with both Donald and Dale released later in the year. There has been reports that not all stores have received stock yet and some Scottish locations will not get them until Wednesday. Early reports suggest that each store has around 10 of each Vinyl and some UK collectors have begun ringing their local stores to reserve them to collect. If you are planning on buying them online, there is one little trick you must use. When searching for the Vinyls, make sure to search for Vinylmations. Missing off the 'S' will only return three of the four in your search. Let's take a look at the first image of the finished products
As we welcome the Tunes to the UK it seems we may be finally saying goodbye to an old timer. As the Vinylmation Tunes appeared online it seems that the Disney Store website has finally run out of Have a Laugh
Although we never expected them to last forever it does leave us with a somewhat depleted selection. It also means that the UK doesn't have any blind box sets to collect online. There are still some available in store and a handful; of locations still have Urban 5 but it leaves us wondering what the next blind box set will be. Are we expecting it the be the 25th anniversary set or will Disney have something up their sleeve beforehand. With the early departure of Furry Friends it does mean that there needs to be a shift in the strategy of the Disney Store to make sure their is supply for what seems to be the ever increasing demand of the UK Vinylmation fans.
What do you think is coming next?

It's great to have something new to buy, but they still need to do better. Animation 2 vanished so quickly.
Surely they could ship over something that isn't selling too well and just filling up their warehouses/outlets in the states or Paris like Sea creatures, robots, muppets 2, 2012, flags, park 3/6 or something…
A wonderful set.
I would love to DS UK sell Vinylmations (and pins) available in DLP in a similar way to the US DS, since this gives a chance for those who can't make it to the parks an opportunity to collect them. I am aware that you can mail order most items from any of the parks, but having them available through the online storefront will make this purchasing more accessible.
1 day and tunes are sold out.
"some UK collectors have begun ringing their local stores to reserve them to collect"
Actually you shouldn't be allowed to anymore because they're "highly desirable collectibles". Therefore Bluewater isn't allowing you to ring and reserve.

I wish all our families a happy Easter and holiday. As always, Term 1 has been a busy one and students and staff are both looking forward to and deserving of a break. It often takes some time for Year 7 students to manage the routines and expectations of secondary school, and while as a year level their transition has been a positive one, there are many who are tired and in need of a chance to recharge their batteries.
With final costs and some funds still coming in, we cannot yet provide a final tally for our STAGGFAIR 2018 fundraising; however, we will be in a position to do this early in Term 2.

Tribute To A Unique War Veteran - Sergeant Reckless
Sergeant Reckless was a very unique and famous war Veteran. The sergeant fought in the Korean War alongside the other marines in the platoon. What made this serageant so unique and loveable?
No, it wasn't because she was a female. It was because she was big and strong and had four legs and a tail. Sergeant Reckless was a horse.
She was a Mongolian thoroughbred race horse in Korea, purchased by the Marines to help them fight the Korean War, who gave it her all to serve. She hauled ammunition through enemy lines, dodging gunfire. She even had been wounded in action. Fellow Marines loved her and she was treated as one of the men.
After the war, she was transported to the US to retire as a decorated Veteran. Anyone that came to visit her loved her and she loved them.
This Memorial Day, let's remember not only the service men and women, past and current, but also the horses, dogs and any other animals that served their country and made huge sacrifices.
We salute all Veterans, both two legged and four legged. Thank you for your services.

I'm always thinking. Maybe I think too much. But I guess it's all good as it generates more ideas. I like to keep myself busy. 'Hecticness' is a word I like to throw out evey now and then. Is that even a word? Anyway I think it's cool when you start to "design" words… I'm currently getting to grips with my iPod touch writing this text in "notes", sat in a Honda Civic on a wet M1motorway…

Gullible immigration applicants of Canada, the UK and the US have become targets of cybercriminals in Hyderabad, India. Hyderabad cybercrime police said it had received four complaints in the last few weeks, as fraudsters tricked innocent applicants with advertisements of immigration on social media and job portals.
Since Canada has been inviting immigration applications in thousands, cybercriminals are said to be exploiting them by just creating a login.
Mr P Ravikiran, Cybercrime Inspector of Police, was quoted by The Times of India as saying that tricksters are resorting to social media, job portals and OLX to entice applicants. Besides visa frauds for the US and the UK, several people have approached the police for having been hoodwinked by people promising immigration to Canada and Australia, he added. Ravikiran added that most cases of swindling have been reported by aspiring Canadian visa applicants.
To immigrate to Canada, the applicants, following the certificate verification, have to file an Expression of Interest by generating a login, fees for which are a few thousand rupees, he said. He added that thee tricksters create logins for applicants and when they check with the embassy, they find that their applications are in process. The swindlers then take lakhs of rupees from their guileless victims, said Ravikiran.
It is only when they do not receive the immigration documents, the applicants realise that they have been fleeced, he said.
In one instance, Duke Fuergunon, a Mumbai-based immigration consultant, cheated Hyderabad-based Dr K Rajani Devi. The criminal reportedly demanded that she deposit INR308, 000 in a bank account for visa stamping. After following his instructions, she realised that she had been taken for a ride.
Similarly, Dr Miacheal Henderson of London, a defrauder, tricked C Syam Prasad, a Kalyan Nagar resident. She had reportedly sent her CV through shine.com and deposited INR450, 000 in a bank account for obtaining a UK visa. But when she contacted the British High Commission, she too realised that she was cheated.
A US visa fraud case had to come to light in the same city in August 2017 when the fraudster conned J Shankarnath, a New Bhoiguda resident, by pocketing INR86, 000 from him. Shankarnath is said to have received a call where the person on the other end offered him a job as software technical field officer in Oklahoma City, US. He deposited the amount in the bank account that the accused had provided. The money was ostensibly for basic travel allowance, visa application fee, US cross-border permit, travel insurance and other documents. The victim deposited money in three banks only to become aware that wool had been pulled over his eyes.
Aspiring immigrants should seek the help of reliable and trustworthy companies to avoid
being misled. If you are one, get in touch with Y-Axis, a company of renown for immigration services, to migrate a secure manner.

He is Making All Things New ... Even Me.
I had a panic attack in my sleep a few nights ago. In my SLEEP. I'm getting used to the panic attacks now, but having one wake me up from a deep sleep was just too much. My husband was still awake, but I didn't tell him what was going on because, honestly? I'm just sick of them at this point. I don't want to drag anyone else into it if I don't have to. That's probably not a great attitude or strategy, but that's where I'm at now. So I gasped for air, ran to the bathroom, calmed myself down, and then crawled back in bed to a restless sleep.
That night, I dreamt there was a snake in my house, but I couldn't find it. In my dream, I wanted to go to sleep, but I couldn't because I knew there was snake somewhere and I couldn't go to sleep and risk the snake crawling in bed with me. I looked everywhere. I looked under mattresses, in closets, pillowcases, bathtubs, toilets. Everywhere I looked, I expected to find the snake and every time I didn't, I was both relieved and frustrated because I knew I couldn't rest until I found and killed the snake. If you know me at all, you know that snakes are my number one fear. Not even like in a funny way. I once almost threw the carseat I was holding, with my baby buckled inside, because I saw a garter snake 20 feet in front of me. So you can imagine how much fun this dream was for me. It was the worst night of sleep I've had in a long time. Maybe ever.
I woke up about 30 minutes before everyone else in my house. I decided to go downstairs and make myself a cup of tea before my children woke up screaming and demanding that I feed them. (Why do they always have to eat in the morning??) When I walked into the kitchen, I looked out of the window and rolled my eyes because of course the outside reflected what I'd battled in my mind all night long. It was raining and foggy and cold. Just as I was about to let my thoughts defeat me and define my day, God gently reminded me that the rain is proof that Spring is coming. The fog will lift, the sun will shine, and new life will grow and replace all that winter killed.
The same is true for all created things. Trial is as crucial to the believer as the rain is to nature. He is making all things new. Through rain and through struggle, we are being made new. For the first time in my life, I'm on a journey where I can see the change even before the journey is over. Usually you can only see how far you've come once you're far enough to look back, but I can see how far I've come and how far I'm going with every step. Every step is a choice and every choice has immediate consequences, so right now, I'm choosing to live. I'm choosing to believe that through this trial of postpartum depression and anxiety and identity loss, I am being made new. I'm an being refined and perfected and new life is growing from the weeds that have threatened to destroy who I am.
After I'd spent some time with Jesus that morning, I got up from my chair, threw away my tea bag, put my cup in the sink, and made my family french toast. I cut up fresh strawberries and made homemade whipped cream and even though all three of my kids refused to eat it and asked for store brand cheerios (not even the honey kind!) instead, I chose to have joy and we had a great day. In spite of the fog and the rain and the worry that cripples me sometimes, I choose to live and walk in the freedom of knowing that I am being made new.
I hope this encourages you to do the same.

Are you looking for a way to make your lashes look longer and fuller with added tone and depth? Then you would most certainly know that lash treatments can make a huge difference. As the lashes are considered to be most important in making your eyes pop, for that matter these treatments have become the most popular beauty treatments. But what type of treatment should you go for? Which one would be the most suitable to make you stand out from the crowd? You have two options for that purpose: Eyelash extensions and eyelash lifts. Let's give you a comprehensive account of their difference to help you figure which one would be the most suitable for you.
Difference between Eyelash Extensions and Eyelash Lift
Although both the treatments are used to make the lashes longer, fuller and alluring, however, they work differently. Eyelash extensions involve the bonding of individual lashes to your natural
lashes with the help of a medical grade adhesive by an experienced artist to make them look physically fuller and longer.
On the other hand, a lash lift involves the natural curling and perming of your lashes to make them appear longer and fuller. So, the lash lifts give an enhanced look to your natural lashes while the eyelash extensions can be used for a rather dramatic effect. Ultimately, it all comes down to your preference.
Pros of Lash Lifts
The biggest pro of lash lift is that they look absolutely natural as compared to the extensions. Another benefit of the lash lifts is that they help you in sorting the untamed lashes which start to crisscross or get twisted. A great lash lift makes them manageable by straightening them. Another great advantage associated with the lash lifts is that the maintenance every 8-12 weeks vs every 2-4 weeks with extensions and since you are using your very own natural lashes, there aren't as many associated irritation
Cons of Lash Lifts
One of the biggest cons of the lash lifts is that many people can't get theirs lifted for being too short. So, there are various limitations as you are helpless about the capabilities of your natural lashes. For instance, if they are too short, you can't get them curled up to give the effect that you might be looking for.
Pros of Eyelash Extensions
Eyelash extensions if done right are the best thing that can happen to a woman. They give the most dramatic look to your eyes and would be particularly perfect if your wedding is coming up. They make your mornings much more relaxing as you don't have to worry about putting on makeup and can simply step out without applying any mascara and yet looking fabulous with those popping eyes and alluring lashes.
Cons of Eyelash Extensions
You cannot risk getting them applied from anyone as it is a job for a professional artist to apply them properly as you wouldn't want your lashes to look clumpy. If not properly applied, they would have to be taken out and in doing so may harm your natural lashes. And the biggest drawback of the lash extensions is their high maintenance as they last for only a month and may also need a touch up in between.
How to choose the right one for you?
In order to choose the best one for you, it is important to know what type of look you want to attain. If you want a dramatic look, go for the extensions while for a natural look, lash lift would be more suitable. Furthermore, if you have short lashes, lash extensions would be the best solution for you.
So, go ahead and choose between eyelash extensions and lash lifts by figuring out what exactly you want. You can visit our website for further details and guidance on both the procedures. Get the most alluring eyes by getting the right procedure done to enhance your eyelashes.

I joined the Baja Team to introduce my children to missions. I felt that a short weekend trip to Mexico with other FCC children would be a perfect introduction for them, and it was! We had a "mission" to build a house so a family could have a shelter, a home, something we take for granted.
Serving built our confidence and taught us that all are useful. So often parents do everything for their children which sends the message, "You are not capable, so I will do it for you." The Baja team says, "All are capable and useful to God."
My family painted, hammered a bit and worked with the children at a Vacation Bible School. We walked through the neighborhood near the "church," which was basically a dirt lot, surrounded by shacks, inviting the children to come and they did, little ones streaming in, holding even smaller kids. All of us learned that many are happy with very little. The children were so happy with the games and crafts FCC provided.
This is a great trip for children and seniors. The work was easy if you can handle the heat and bending over. Teddy and Emily Omondi were great leaders, and I would recommend this trip for those who have never been on a mission trip or would like to introduce their children to missions.
The next Baja trip is November 6-8. Click on the flag to learn more:

Pro Tools is an industry elite in recording studio software. As one of the first major digital audio workstations, other companies have been mirroring and analyzing Avid's product as a baseline for recording studio software.
Pro Tools 12The Best Recording Studio Software of 2019
The Verdict
Pro Tools is among the most recognizable names in the industry and offers extensive editing features. For this reason, it's our best pick for traditional recording software.
It's a highly technical program for professional use – novices can still learn the software, but its extensive editing features are best for professionals with industry experience. It's best used during post-creation editing and is ideal for musicians and small business owners looking to record and edit audio in a more traditional manner.
Beginners or users interested in a free trial can use Pro Tools First, Avid's flagship Pro Tools program for users looking to learn more and get the most out of music editing. Pro Tools is also one of the first DAWs to introduce cloud collaboration – musicians can record and edit audio on a project from multiple locations. For these reasons, Pro Tools earns our best pick for best traditional recording studio software.
For individual business owners and musicians, Pro Tools is available on a subscription basis of $24.92 per month when you commit to a full year. That's $299.04 per year for access to Pro Tools' powerful DAW and editing features. Paying for a subscription means you'll constantly have the most up-to-date version of Pro Tools.
Users can also purchase the software outright, with the ability to upgrade for a year for free as well as seven-day installation support for $599.00. While this software is more expensive compared to some competitors, it comes with a host of features that make it a powerful product. Larger businesses can contact Avid's sales team to talk through the purchase and find the best plan geared toward their specific business.
Pro Tools has a host of editing tools for professional musicians and business owners – and a lot of its power can go unused at times. A major feature introduced in Pro Tools 12 is cloud collaboration. Users can connect and work on projects with colleagues or co-workers around the world.
Pro Tools is also part of the Avid Marketplace, where users can get technical support, find other musicians and upload their music for the world to hear. Plans come with 1 GB of free storage, and additional storage can be purchased monthly in 10 GB, 30 GB, and 80 GB plans.
- Ease of use. A major highlight of this software is its organization. Tracks can easily be compiled into one master recording, and all tracks are grouped into a playlist. This provides easy access to multiple recordings for one project. There are also a host of key commands so you can easily switch between playlists on a given track or move overlapped clips to another playlist.
- Sound library. Pro Tools comes with over 60 virtual instruments, thousands of sounds and a 2 GB loop library. You can also download additional sounds or purchase them from the Pro Tool store.
- Plug-ins and effects. Pro Tools also supports over 60 plug-ins and access to 17 bonus plug-ins, depending on what plan you choose. The only supported plug-in format, however, is AAX. The type of plug-in you need may already be included with Pro Tools, but if you're looking for a software that supports many different plug-in formats, Pro Tools may not be your best bet.
- Support. Pro Tools is backed by Avid, a company that offers extensive support for its products. In addition to phone support, an online community forum, a knowledge base with frequently asked questions, a YouTube channel with tutorials, and official Pro Tools courses, Avid also provides a marketplace to connect with other musicians using Pro Tools. This can help you meet other Pro Tools users, troubleshoot problems, or connect and collaborate on a project.
- Pro Tools' subscription option, while it is flexible, is more expensive compared to other we reviewed DAWs.
- It only supports AAX plug-in formats.
- Cloud collaboration storage space costs extra beyond 1 GB.
Pro Tools offers extensive features and good user support. It has a good sound library and offers cloud collaboration, so your audio projects can easily be worked on and shared with multiple musicians. This software is ideal for editing audio post-creation as opposed to creating new beats or music directly in the software.
Despite its high price, Pro Tools is a great recording studio software for small business owners.
Pro Tools 12The Best Recording Studio Software of 2019
The Verdict
Pro Tools is among the most recognizable names in the industry and offers extensive editing features. For this reason, it's our best pick for traditional recording software.

The health benefits of vitamins include their ability to prevent and treat various diseases including heart problems, high cholesterol levels, eye disorders, and skin disorders. This vitamin helps to prevent heart attacks in the future by opening up the arteries and eliminate blockage. You can also find supplement tablets that have a coated shell, although they are normally found in the cheaper vitamin and supplement stores. My skin is rejuvenated just because I added these wonderful vitamins that allow my body to do the work of repairing on it own.
Where to get it: The highest concentration of vitamin A is found in sweet potatoes ; just one medium-sized baked sweet potato contains more than 28,000 international units (IU) of vitamin A, or 561{5fe5f2f17800734695cbeb4a5db11ebcbc0e62d9979cef0421ac2abc0e79ab9f} of your recommended daily value (DV). Some of the vitamins serve only one function in the body, while other vitamins serve a variety of unrelated functions. You don't have to become an expert or learn all the intricacies of all the vitamins — because you can't," adds Dr. Thomas. Now, thanks to Team Effort Network and the spray vitamins, I am able to see a change in my body as my skin has started to regenerate and the patches have gotten smaller. To ensure that your body remains at it's best, you should make sure that you get the right amount of vitamins with your diet.
Even though you may be using shampoo that contains biotin, you'll still need to take the necessary vitamins and supplements as well. Why you need it: Vitamin C is an important antioxidant, and it's also a necessary ingredient in several key bodily processes, such as protein metabolism and the synthesis of neurotransmitters. Supplements are an easy, safe, and inexpensive way to make sure you're getting the vitamins and minerals your body has to have for optimum health.
Be patient, it can take weeks or months for the overall condition of your skin to improve. Vitamin status — Vitamin status refers to the state of vitamin sufficiency or deficiency of any person. If you consume these types of fatty acids, you'll get the right amount of vitamin A that is needed to enhance the growth of your hair. By taking both vitamin C and E as a combination, you'll be well on your way to a healthier heart.
Although study after study showed that he was wrong, Pauling refused to believe it, continuing to promote vitamin C in speeches, popular articles, and books. The B complex vitamins include thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), folic acid (B9), and B12. Vitamin B2 or Riboflavin helps to treat cataracts, skin disorders, and anemia , while also improving the body's metabolic activity, immunity , and nervous system. The Molecular Expressions Vitamins Collection contains all of the known vitamins and many biochemicals that were once thought and claimed to be vitamins. When researchers evaluated the data, the flaw became obvious: the cancer victims Cameron had treated with vitamin C were healthier at the start of therapy, so their outcomes were better.

Warning, this article contains major spoilers for Avengers: Infinity War, if you still haven't seen it, turn back now.
One Avengers: Infinity War moviegoer reportedly died while watching the flick, possibly of a heart attack. Marvel Studios pulled off their biggest undertaking yet with the release of Avengers 3. But while the film is full of memorable moments and character interactions, not to mention the official debut of Thanos, it's arguably the ending that will keep people talking for at least the next several months (more likely until Avengers 4 arrives next year).
Despite a heroic effort and several sacrifices made by the Avengers, the Mad Titan was still able to fulfill his destiny of "balancing" the universe with the recreation of his iconic snap on the big screen, after which, people, including several key heroes, horrifyingly started to turn into dust, leaving the remaining characters both shell-shocked and lost. Naturally, the countless surprising deaths in the final third of the film proved to be too much for some Marvel fans to handle. Of course, fictional deaths can't compare to the horror of losing a real person, and sadly, one unfortunate theater attendee didn't make it out of their screening of Infinity War alive.
RELATED: Every Record Avengers: Infinity War Has Broken
In a report from Times of India, a construction worker named Peddapasupula Baasha decided to catch the film as part of the May Day celebration. On Tuesday, the man went to Cinehub Multiplex in Proddatur town in Andhra Pradesh's Kadapa district to watch Infinity War in 3D. After the film was finished, it was eventually discovered that he died sometime during the movie. The 43-year-old "was found sitting in his seat without any movement." Theater employees initially assumed that the man was simply waiting for the post-credits scene, but when he didn't move even after it was over, it became clear something was wrong. It wasn't until officials removed his 3D glasses that they learned that "he died with his eyes open."
While the Proddatur rural police are leaning towards the conclusion that Baasha died due to either a heart attack or natural causes, the officials still sent the man's body to a local government hospital for examination. Since then, the death has been filed under section 174 of India's code of criminal procedure as a "suspicious death," which means there could potentially be more to this story than just someone suffering a heart attack while watching a film. The investigation to determine the exact cause of death is still ongoing.
Despite all the achievements that Marvel Studios has earned so far with Avengers: Infinity War, news like this somewhat dampens the celebratory mood. Although the superhero blockbuster itself obviously didn't have anything to do with Baasha's death, the sad truth is that this man's friends and family will forever associate Infinity War with the tragic loss of their loved one, and that's an unfortunate circumstance indeed.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:2
Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.
Silence for reflection
There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Lord, open our lips. *
And our mouths shall proclaim your praise!
Part I
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, *
for his mercy endures for ever.
Who can declare the mighty acts of the LORD *
or show forth all his praise?
Happy are those who act with justice *
and always do what is right!
Remember me, O LORD, with the favor you have for your people, *
and visit me with your saving help;
That I may see the prosperity of your elect
and be glad with the gladness of your people, *
that I may glory with your inheritance.
We have sinned as our forebears did; *
we have done wrong and dealt wickedly.
In Egypt they did not consider your marvelous works,
nor remember the abundance of your love; *
they defied the Most High at the Red Sea.
But he saved them for his Name's sake, *
to make his power known.
He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up, *
and he led them through the deep as through a desert.
He saved them from the hand of those who hated them *
and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
The waters covered their oppressors; *
not one of them was left.
Then they believed his words *
and sang him songs of praise.
But they soon forgot his deeds *
and did not wait for his counsel.
A craving seized them in the wilderness, *
and they put God to the test in the desert.
He gave them what they asked, *
but sent leanness into their soul.
They envied Moses in the camp, *
and Aaron, the holy one of the LORD.
The earth opened and swallowed Dathan *
and covered the company of Abiram.
Fire blazed up against their company, *
and flames devoured the wicked.
God our Father, remembering your covenant, you graciously pardoned those who rebelled against you. Grant that, where sin abounds, grace may abound more; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit; *
as it was in the beginning
is now and shall be for ever. Amen.
Lamb of God - Salt Of The Sound
For those not receiving Evening Prayer emails, the lectionary OT & NT Lessons for today are Joel 3:1-2, 9-17; 1 Peter 1:1-12.
When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee and went to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan. Large crowds followed him, and he cured them there.
Some Pharisees came to him, and to test him they asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any cause?" He answered, "Have you not read that the one who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female,' and said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." They said to him, "Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her?" He said to them, "It was because you were so hard-hearted that Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for unchastity, and marries another commits adultery." His disciples said to him, "If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry." But he said to them, "Not everyone can accept this teaching, but only those to whom it is given. For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let anyone accept this who can."
Silence for reflection
In the morning, pray for:
- the day and its tasks
- the world and its needs
- the Church and her life
Conclude with the Lord's Prayer and/or the following Collect:
Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in your well-beloved Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided and enslaved by sin, may be freed and brought together under his most gracious rule; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Let us bless the Lord. *
Thanks be to God!

The Perfect Margarita!/
This content is intended for adults of the ages 21+
It's Labor Day weekend and that calls for a margarita! Since moving to Texas, I really learned how to make the perfect margarita. The recipe is so simple with just four ingredients and it will easily become one of your favorite recipes! I made these once for a girls night and it was a huge hit! Once your friends know you can make a killer margarita, you will be requested to make them at every time!
There is just no drink quite like a margarita. No mixes, bottled juices, or frozen junk here. I like a salted rim, large ice cubs, and tequila I can taste! Did you know that margaritas are the #1 cocktail in the United States? 70% of them are made from scratch in your very own home. But there's a little secret… you can turn your ordinary home-made margarita into an extraordinary one with Agavero Orange.
Agavero Orange is a liqueur that is the perfect ingredient to compliment a margarita! It's a splash of sunshine as it's a blend of 100% blue agave tequila, infused with the essence of oranges and pure agave nectar. It seriously tastes so good! It's Gran Centenario Reposado Tequila is the perfect match. It's the perfect duo for the best skinny margarita! Learn more about Agavero Orange [HERE] on their website!
- To rim the glass: kosher salt, lime wedge
- 1 1/2 ounces Gran Centenario Reposado tequila (about 3 tablespoons)
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1 large or 1 1/2 small limes)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice (about 1/2 medium orange)
- 2 teaspoons of Agavero Orange
- Ice
- Rim the glass: Pour a thin layer of salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the top edge of your glass to moisten it, then tip the glass into the salt so that it sticks, tapping all the way around. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
- Fill a small cocktail shaker with additional ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, and Agavero Orange. Tightly close and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds (it's longer than you think). Strain into the rimmed glass over the ice. Enjoy immediately.
As summer closes in and fall arrives, it's time to sit back and enjoy the perfect margarita. Now that I share my secret ingredients, I want you to share your favorite margarita recipes and the ways you enjoy Agavero Orange this season! You can learn more about Agavero Orange [HERE] on their website!

|C Tutorial
Lesson 1: Introduction to C
A C compiler.
Instructions on using the LCCWin32 Compiler.
The best way to learn to Program is to start doing it, so here we go!
Quake World!
In a somewhat less than radical break from the norm we will create our first program "Hello, Quake World!". This will be a simple command-line (eg DOS, Unix) program which prints "Hello, Quake World!" at the prompt.
The first thing we do is start LCCWin32.
Now create a hello.c file and enter this code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
printf("Hello, Quake World!\n");
Now compile and run your program. Assuming you have no errors, you will receive this output:
Hello, Quake World!
If you do have errors when compiling your code, go over it again and look for errors.
Let's have a good look at what our first program does.
#include <stdio.h>
The '#' (hash symbol) defines the line as an Instruction for the PreProcessor. The instruction is to include the file "stdio.h" in our source file. Essentially, the PreProcessor replaces this #include <stdio.h> line with the contents of the file "stdio.h". This is basically a merge, like you get in a Word Processor. So now you are probably wondering what this "stdio.h" file is. Well that's not important right now.
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
This is a Function declaration. Functions allow us to group together peices of code and refer to them in a simpler and more structured way. Instead of having thousands of lines of code all together, we group them seperately into modules that we can then call individually.
From the Introduction to Programming Tutorial Lesson 1, you will remember our Program to make a cup of coffee:
Making Coffee:
a. Boil some water
b. Get an empty mug
c. Place a spoonful of coffee in the mug
d. When the water has boiled, fill the mug with the water
e. If we want milk, add milk to taste
f. If we want sugar, add sugar to taste
Let's say we want to make 12 cups of coffee. We could repeat the instructions of the above recipe (or Program) 12 times. Or, if we grouped the instructions into a Function, we could call this Function 12 times from the one Program -- the program to "Make 12 cups of coffee".
Functions will be discussed in more detail in a further Lesson. For now, a basic Function looks like:
return_type function_name (arguments)
So let's get back to our code:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
This declares a Function called "main()" which returns an integer value (a number). The Function takes two arguements, which we wont worry about just yet. Typically, all console (DOS, Unix) programs require a main() Function declared.
printf("Hello, Quake World!\n");
So what does this bit of code do? The first thing you might notice is the { } brackets. These brackets group pieces of code together, and in this case they are used to group the code to the main() Function.
printf is another Function to print (display) characters to the screen. It takes the "Hello, Quake World!\n" parameter as the characters to display. The "Hello, Quake World!" part should be quite straight-forward as that is what is printed. The "\n" however is a special character -- the New Line character. It forces a line break.
Phew! That should be enough for your first Program! Have a good play about with it to change the text it displays. As an exercise, why don't you try to get your Program to display:
Welcome to my first program.
This is line number 2.
And this is line number 3.
A few solutions to this exercise will be provided in the next Lesson.

Remember yesterday when I mentioned that I had something exciting to come home to on Sunday night?
Well, many of you know how much I adore the international students that I tutor. Even on the saddest or most stressful of days, they keep me smiling. I love our conversations about culture and things that they are dealing with as a foreigner in our country. Having lived overseas for a year, I feel like I can identify with the struggles and joys that they experience on a day-to-day basis. I could talk about this forever, but let's get to the good stuff.
A couple of weeks ago one of my Korean students, HeyKyoung, and I decided that it would be fun for me to take some pictures of her and her 4 year-old daughter, Jinsel. Now for every time that my adult students make me smile, times it by about 100 and you get the amount of times international children make me smile. I've been so excited about this because it gives me a chance to document a moment in their life here in the states, and I think they will cherish that for years to come whether they live here or go back to Korea. Also, it gives me a chance to practice taking pictures of people, which I don't get to do very often!
So anyway, I wanted to share a few of the pictures because they are just so precious.
Little Jinsel was an absolute doll the entire time; I could not have asked for a happier, more fun little girl to photograph.
In Korean the word "emo" means "mom's friend." Since Jinsel doesn't know much English, HeyKyoung kept saying "emo, emo" whenever she wanted her to look at me or come to me….it was so so cute. The next day when I met with HeyKyoung, she said that Jinsel woke up that morning asking when she was going to get her picture taken again and saying that she wanted to see emo.
Melted my heart:)
Speaking of pictures, this weekend there will be a lot of photo taking going on for the McCoy's. Remember that marathon that the husband and I were originally going to run, but then we decided to back down from it? Well, since Jon created the branding for the race, we've been invited to attend some of the VIP events on Friday night, and we're also going to be at the marathon bright and early Sunday morning to take pictures of Jon's work (and probably some of the runners because I won't be able to resist!). I'm really looking forward to being a spectator instead of a runner! I think it'll be fun, even though it will make me itch to start training.
Also, the family I used to nanny for has asked us to photograph their family on Saturday evening, so we'll be fitting that in as well! A full weekend it will be, but I'm so excited! I know it's a little early to be talking weekend plans already….forgive me.

Desktop herb vaporizers are the last work in thick, tasty vapor. Unlike their portable cousins they don't have to trade off any features to save on size. This means that they can cram extra features into their unit, everything from crystal clear LED displays to hybrid heating systems.
Storz & Bickel's Volcano Classic is the king of the hill in the Ireland vaporizer scene. It is, simply put, the best desktop vaporizer on the Ireland market. The volcano gets its name from its smooth cone shape, and packed into this structure is a lot of cutting edge technology. With a hybrid heating system, an exact temperature control, and high quality user friendly controls, the Volcano will guarantee you the best herb experience you could possibly get from a desktop vaporizer.
The Volcano Classic plant vape is the first iteration of Storz & Bickel's famous desktop vaporizer. It was the first plant vaporizer to use the German manufacturer's patented technology that filters toxins, tars, and carcinogens out of your herb vapor. This process also intensifies the flavour and effect of the active ingredients by a broad margin, approximately 75%!
The unique shape of the Volcano gives you ample room to circulate and thicken the vapor drawn from your herb in its extra large chamber. It uses a fan with adjustable speeds to fill a balloon through a valve. Once the balloon is completely filled it can be detached for extra portability, allowing you to enjoy your vapor at your leisure anywhere in your house! The balloon can hold vapor for up to eight hours and its unique, quality design won't let you down.
The Volcano is hand built to the highest standards and the held to an exacting level of quality. These standards were applied during the design process of their patented easy valve. The easy valve is, naturally enough, very user friendly and easy to use. The valve comes attached to the balloon so no more fiddling with a balloon attempting to attach it to the valve. The Volcano classic comes packaged with five easy valve balloons. Each balloon is good for about 50 uses before you have to switch it out for a fresh one.
The Volcano uses both conduction and convection in its hybrid heating system, meaning that you get to enjoy the best of both worlds. The conduction element means that the heat up time for the chamber is incredibly short, so you don't have to wait to enjoy your vape experience. The convection element circulates hot air across your herb, evenly evaporating a rich and thick vapor for you to enjoy. For best results grind your herb before placing it into the chamber of your Volcano; it increases the amount of surface area in contact with the convection heating and increases the quality of your vapor while efficiently using all of your herb.
Also know when it's time to switch out your herb, once you start getting a burnt popcorn taste it's time to get a new batch!
It was thought that Storz and Bickel perfected the desktop vape with the Volcano Classic, but they managed to improve that design even further with the Volcano digit.
The Digit uses a hyper-precise digital controls and and easy to read LED display. To make room for these additional features the Digit is somewhat larger and heavier than its analogue compatriot.
However this extra bulk is the pay off for a hyper precise display that shows you the current chamber temperature, the estimated heat up time, and the pre-programed temperature.
The choice is yours; do you prefer the old school feel of an analog control, or do you want the tiny adjustments made possible with digital controls. Whatever you pick the Volcano is a vaporizer that wont let you down and will guarantee you an excellent vaping experience.

How to Make and Maintain Green Walls and Vertical Gardens
During the winter, when people spend most of their time indoors, they often complain about frequent headaches and dryness of the skin. Easy way to solve this problem is to make a green wall.
Besides the decorative, the purpose of placing a green wall is oxygen-enrichment of the space, purification of internal pollutants and allergens (we all know how important is to have a clean home) and increase in humidity. People who live or work in areas with vertical gardens are less sleepy and more concentrated.
How to make one?
If you want your vertical garden to be healthy and lush it is essential to combine compatible plants as well as taking into account factors such as exposure to the Sun and weather conditions. Preparation for green wall installation should be thorough, the walls have to be waterproof and it is necessary to take into account the dryness of the surrounding walls, floors and ceilings.
Green wall consists of a fixed or movable supporting structure, space for plants (which is made of special multi-layer fabric) and irrigation system (pump, tank for nutrition and water, a timer and a dropper).
Firstly, you have to attach a metal structure that will support your vertical garden to the designated wall, then conduct watering system on that structure, but make sure that each plant gets enough water. After that, set the waterproof fibers that insulate the wall from moisture. All you have to do next is to stack your plants next to each other in straight lines or curved ones, depending on what kind of atmosphere you want to create.
If you are wondering, yes, there is an easier and cheaper way to make your green wall; all you need is a vertical garden kit. The kit contains a plastic panel (frame) with different number of pots for your plants and water pipes for watering the entire frame.
What to plant?
Creeping philodendron, Dracaena, ivy, Chlorophytum, Scindapsus, Ferns, Spathiphyllum, Aglaonema and plants with small root system are recommended for cultivation on the vertical gardens. You have to combine plants that have similar needs for light and water, but have a different color or structure of the leaves.
Besides flowers and other greenery, your green wall can contain different spices, so you can think about brightening up your kitchen with this mini garden.
The frequency of watering and fertilizing depends on the plant species and conditions in the room. You should make sure to regularly inspect plants for overall health, moisture levels, pests and disease, trim and clean of all foliage as necessary, check water level in the tank, check pumps and timers and clean filters and replace any dead plants or failed irrigation components. Maintaining an internal vertical garden takes a little more effort comparing to the outside green walls, because the plants inside are not naturally exposed to the Sun rays as much as those outside.
A lot of studies that have shown that vertical gardens are not just a fad. In fact they have shown that vertical gardens planted in hospitals, mental institutions, rehabilitation centers and nursing homes have a positive impact on the people who spend time there. Longer stay indoors have a bad psychological impact on people, so bringing nature inside will definitely help to lessen that influence.
