Arthur D. Rhodes Named 2017 Varnell Award Recipient
"Art Rhodes resume and character demonstrates outstanding leadership in his profession, community service and church," states nominator Bob Card, president Easy Auto Credit, Inc. Arthur (Art) Rhodes, president and chief executive officer for Church of God Benefits Board Inc. and the Church Loan Fund, Inc., received the Robert W. Varnell Jr. Leadership Award during awards presentations at the 92nd Annual Meeting of the Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of Commerce. Named for the late Robert W. Varnell Jr., the award is one of the top honors presented annually by the Chamber of Commerce which recognizes outstanding leadership for profession, religion/church and community.
Art has played an active leadership role in the community since he and his family moved to Cleveland in 1999. As a lawyer by training, Art has served in a variety of roles in his profession and business, since completing his education at the University of Mississippi Law School. Early on in his career, while serving as a prosecutor he was appointed by the Governor of Mississippi to serve as legal counsel for the State Department of Public Welfare. Following this stint of public service, Art went into private practice where he specialized in construction litigation with a firm in Jackson, MS.
"Art Rhodes brings a broad perspective to any organization he represents. His advice is generated by his experience at both the public and private level," states Donald Lorton, retired executive from the Maytag Corporation. In 1988, Rhodes joined Mississippi State 4th District Representative Mike Parker's staff in Washington, D.C., to serve as chief of staff and legal counsel for legislative matters. He served in that capacity for over a decade, until Congressman Parker retired. Art's dedication to the institution of Congress was recognized in 1996 when he was named a recipient of a fellowship from the John C. Stennis Center for Public Service and the first Mississippian to receive the prestigious award.
"Everything he becomes involved with becomes better as he brings his own style of leadership to the table," shared Cameron Fisher, communications coordinator for Church of God International Offices. In 1999, Art was named president and CEO of the Church of God Benefits Board, Inc. in Cleveland. The Benefits Board manages a pension plan for ministers and church-related employees and oversees the investments of the Board, now totaling $350 million. In 2010, Art was also appointed the president and CEO of the Church Loan Fund, Inc., an organization which currently services 135 church loans totaling over $35 million. Art has also chaired the Ecumenical Association, Denominational Investors and Loan Administrators Boards.
"Art models the spirit of service by his consistent and valuable contributions to the United Way and his community. Art has a way of bringing strong business sense to his volunteer and service work with the compassion and grace that has defined his leadership in our community. Wisdom and heart, Art represents leadership at its very finest," states Matt Ryerson, president and CEO United Way of the Ocoee Region. Art previously chaired the United Way, served on the Executive Committee, led the Investment Committee and numerous other United Way committees. He also received the highest volunteer award designation from United Way as a William F. Johnson Award recipient in 2012.
"He is a thoughtful, sincere and committed community volunteer, as evidenced by his years of leadership and involvement in the United Way, Cleveland Rotary Club, Rotary Foundation and Gideon's International," states C. Louis Patten, Jr., Partner Cornerstone Insurance. Art became a member of the Cleveland Rotary Club in 1999 where he's served as president and is recognized as one of the founders of the club's foundation. In addition Rhodes is a member of Gideon's International, serves on the executive committee of the Bradley/Cleveland Public Education Foundation, the Family Resource Agency Board, the Youth Counseling Service Board and president for the local YMCA.
Art is a life-long member of the Church of God and has been very active in church activities, which have included numerous mission trips around the globe. Art is a guest lecturer and author, providing training to ministers and church leaders from across the country. He has also chaired a Global Education Board for the Church of God denomination which oversees more than 120 educational institutions around the world.
Art and his wife, Angie, are the parents of Taylor and Katelyn.

NEWCASTLE United's fans had dreamt of Wembley on the long journey down to London – but what they saw instead gave them nightmares ahead of the Tyne-Wear derby.
Cup redemption, it seems, is still a long, long way off for Alan Pardew.
This was another troubling, even embarrassing, defeat.
And long before the final whistle put Pardew's players out of their misery, the club's 4,200 fans were singing "I want to go home".
You couldn't blame them.
Many had been at the Emirates Stadium four days earlier, where Newcastle were beaten 4-1 by Arsenal.
This was worse, much worse.
Now the club's supporters can only hope their team can somehow pull itself together for the visit of Gus Poyet's to St James's Park.
A fourth successive defeat to Sunderland is unthinkable for United – and especially manager Pardew.
Pardew, again under pressure, needs a win – however it comes.
But if his team plays anything like this against Sunderland, they will lose.
Pardew – whose side had won their last two Premier League visits to White Hart Lane – made just four changes from the team he named a few miles away at the Emirates Stadium.
Cheik Tiote, Papiss Demba Cisse, Steven Taylor and Sammy Ameobi stayed behind on Tyneside along with the suspended Daryl Janmaat.
All five could return to the starting XI for Sunday's Tyne-Wear derby at St James's Park.
United certainly need them back on this evidence.
There were chaotic scenes outside White Hart Lane as the game kicked off.
Many of the visiting fans who had tickets for the upper tier were still stood queuing as Jack Colback launched an early ball forward for Yoan Gouffran.
The chaos on the pitch was to come later, for Pardew's side started well enough.
Sissoko made a powerful early run forward and slipped in Emmanuel Riviere, starting his first game since September, but goalkeeper Michel Vorm raced off his line to get there first.
The game had the makings of a decent cup tie before it slowly – and painfully – unravelled for Newcastle.
Sissoko was at the heart of United's best moves, and he drove a thunderous shot into the arms of Vorm in the 15th minute.
Three minutes later, Newcastle were behind.
Christian Eriksen delivered a corner from the right which was spilled by an off-balance Alnwick, and Nabil Bentaleb swept the loose ball home at the far post.
It almost got worse in the 36th minute when Gouffran inexplicably rolled the ball to Tottenham's Harry Kane.
The striker had a run at United's goal, but he shot wide of goal as Newcastle's 4,200 fans, massed behind Alnwick, turned up the volume in a bid to rouse their team.
Referee Andre Marriner waved away a penalty appeal in the 41st minute after Kane went down under a challenge from captain Fabricio Coloccini, who had clipped him.
Gouffran put a chance at the other end over the bar, and Jan Vertonghen had an effort blocked.
Pardew opted to send the same XI out for the second half, and within 33 seconds the team was 2-0 down, with a shot from an unchallenged Nacer Chadli having taken a slight deflection on its way past Alnwick.
Tottenham passed and probed away after the goal, though Remy Cabella did have a shot at Vorm in a rare foray forward.
And Cabella and Riviere both somehow missed a great right-wing delivery from Ayoze Perez.
Had it not been for an on-the-line clearance from Massadio Haidara – he blocked a header from Vertonghen – the game would have been effectively over.
But it was all over in the 63rd minute when Kane got goal side of Williamson – who endured another torrid 90 minutes – in the box and beat Alnwick.
Soldado added extra gloss, slotting home from close range after Eriksen's initial effort was saved.
Alnwick was given treatment for a shoulder problem in the latter stages of the game.
But Alnwick was able to continue.
And the 21-year-old will have a huge weight on his shoulders when Sunderland visit St James's Park.

The College Basketball Invitational has one of the most unique formats for any post season tournament in college basketball. It's a single elimination tournament until it is down to two teams, then it becomes a best of three series.
We have reached the finals of the CBI and the winner take all game will take place on Friday between the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers and the Wyoming Cowboys. The series is tied 1-1, with each team winning the game on their home court.
Coastal Carolina Chanticleers
The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers actually had a pretty disappointing season if you just look at the regular season, but they could really finish their season on a high note if they could bring home the CBI tournament championship.
After winning the first game 91-81 Coastal Carolina got off to a terrible start in the second game and lost 81-57. To win this game it's all going to come down to the offensive side of the floor.
The Cowboys are going to get their points so the Chanticleers must make sure they get points too.
To have any shot to win this game they need to score at least 80 points.
Wyoming Cowboys
The Wyoming Cowboys had a great start to their season but really struggled during conference play. But they found some type of momentum to carry into the CBI and have played well since starting the tournament.
In their first game against Coastal Carolina it looked like they forgot they were playing a game.
They got off to such a sluggish start and couldn't shake it off.
In the second game they came out ready to play and dominated the game from start to finish.
To win this game they need to get out to the fast start and just play their game. They need to push pace and get the crowd behind them early.
CBI Tourney Betting Trends:
- WYO are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall.
- Under is 6-2 in WYO last 8 games as a favorite.
Free Coastal Carolina Chanticleers vs. Wyoming Cowboys NCAAB Prediction:
I don't see anyway that Coastal Carolina cna rebound from the beating they took on Wednesday night at the hands of the Cowboys.
I think the Cowboys will get off to a fast start again and never look back.
4* Free CBI Tourney Betting Pick: Wyoming -8.5
I like the Cowboys to win the championship, and cover the spread.

Well we walked into the nurses room and the woman actually asked which one of us was pregnant.
I heard the heart beat! And the swishing of it's 'womb sister' (The name a bunch of crazy pregnant ladies on this website gave the placenta. They actually leave the placenta on the baby until it falls off...)
Me (reading out loud)-
"If a pregnant woman, overwhelmed by pains, is not able to deliver, you must rub her thighs with a sardonyx and say: "Just as you, stone of sardonyx, have shone on the first angel by the order of God, in the same way, you, child, come shine as a man who lives in God". Then, she will place this same sardonyx at the baby's exit, to the exit of her sex, and she will say: "Open, paths and doors, just as for the appearance by which Christ, God, and man, has appeared and has opened the doors of hell; and you, baby, cross this door without dying and without making your mother die". At this moment, you must place this stone in a belt around her, and she will be eased."
"I swear to God, if anyone tries to stick a crystal up my vagina..."
Here's one for me!
"If someone goes mad, or is in some way prey to fantasies, you must rub a magnet with saliva, and, with the stone, rub the nape of his neck, then his forehead while saying: "Bad madness, yield to this power by which God has transformed the devil's power into kindness for man, sent forth from the high sky". And the patient will find his spirits."
This girl can either frustrate me or make me explode with laughter. She's my photography buddy, and I'd freeze my ass off for her any day. And she is there for me, when I need her and sometimes when I don't...
Before our haircuts-

Friday morning we headed out of Filadelfia with 2 pick-ups and our SUV. We traded kids for a while, so that they wouldn't becaome bored (and start fighting with their sisters:) This is Anna (Brianna's friend), Princess Polar (Brianna's newest teddy bear and Brianna in the back seat of our Toyota Runner. We tanked the vehicles and started out with mixed feeling about the 270 km of dirt roads in front of us. It had rained 140 mm at out house two days before, and the roads could be tricky.
As you can see, the bridges don't look very sturdy, and some were broken, so that we had to drive on the lower part of the road.
The water was still rushing underneath the bridges 2 days after the rain. And because the water covers a lot of gras and other plants, it soon starts to smell very foul. Yuck!
This was out first view of the Paraguayan river. Brazil is on the other shore.
I'll post more tomorrow. I really have to get to the dirty laundry and to my couch:)
Speaking about my couch: I'll be doing W8D3 of the Couch-to-5k program tomorrow. That means if all goes well, I'll be graduating from the programm in one week. I used a little more than 9 weeks to complete it, but I'm totally amazed by the results. On W1D1 I could hardly jog for one minute without my body screaming to to stop. On my last run, I ran for 28 minutes non-stop. As I already wrote on my facebook wall: I wish my P.E. teacher could see me run now.:)

Defence & Security
The difference between success and failure within the security sector often comes down to fine margins and it's rarely a simple factor of pure knowledge or skill that impacts on the outcome. Human performance will always be a massively important factor and having the ability to know what level of performance and risk there is within your own personnel is a key area of intelligence worth having. We are able to accurately measure the value to which someone puts on areas of life and work. And in addition we can identify to what extent an individual has strong or poor judgement ability either within a risk environment or whilst off duty.
Identifying Risk
The concept of analysing stress and wellness to predict risk has synergy across any environment where there is risk and this will also include security of assets and people. The security sector is a typical environment where risk is increased if individuals and teams are under pressure and stress and there coping ability is weak or inhibited. The Judgement Index will identify individuals and collective groups that represent a higher risk by using key indicators from certain results we gather i.e. noticing, focus and stress will significantly increase performance prediction and risk. If potential risk employees are identified then appropriate measures can be initiated to resolve the situation. This is a very pro-active method of reducing an incident or situation spiralling out of containment and control.
Initiatives using the JI
• Royal Military Academy Sandhurst (sample study to predict success and risk within Officer Cadets)
• NATO Defence College (Rome) – Development of team cohesion and analysis of risk in a team of multi-national officers.
• Navel Leadership Academy – Staff development and team cohesion development.
• USA Citadel College – Assessment and development cadets.
• Walter Reed US Naval Hospital – Assessment and development of medical staff
• Military Mentor (UK Gov Project) – Analysis of role capability and risk prior to training.
• USA National Centre for Construction Research and Education – Screening Site Supervisors for risk and role capability.
• SkillForce UK Charity – Screening instructors and team leaders conducting activities for role capability and risk.

Here at The Tropical Paradise, I have given my Mediterranean palms plenty of room to grow. Mostly I don't bother trimming them at all, and I found after trimming them last year, for the first time since they were planted, that it was a dangerous job. Then I remembered some advice I had received from a person who trimmed rose bushes - long leather gloves.
I bought a pair of long leather gloves (about twenty dollars at Lowe's) and some new bypass pruners (about ten dollars) and I went out to experiment. I works great!
The leather gloves really do protect your hands and forearms from those deadly spikes. As I write this, I don't have a scratch on me, and I just trimmed a lot of fronds off.
By the way, my hand brushed across one of those agaves, which are extremely sharp, and I hardly noticed it. The new leather gloves work great!

Shiloh Shadows
ours," he cried; "Victory has once more perched upon the stand-
ard of the South."
I have since wondered why that officer said those words; were
they spoken in irony; or did he believe them to be true ? After
all he may have been fully posted as to the condition of things,
and merely desired to offer our "forlorn hope" some little encour-
agement. At any rate, the fellow was game; for a little later
on, he rode in our front as we advanced and remained with us
through the horrible butchery of Monday morning.
The enemy's skirmishers had now vanished into the dense un-
dergrowth that skirted the field on its further side, and no visible
,evidence of the foe remained.
With us the formality of a skirmish line was waived, and at
the command "forward," our brigade moved out, its length of
line extending only about two-thirds across the field, and with
neither of our flanks protected. As yet, however, we were too
little versed in warfare, to realize our isolated condition, and
went blithely on; for Sunday's victory had given us unbounded
-confidence in ourselves. The silence was oppressive; I do not
remember that on our way across the open space, a command was
given or a word spoken. "Where is the enemy ?" I kept asking
myself, and suppose that every man in ranks was revolving the
same question in his mind.
We were within a rod of the field's eastern boundary, when the
fence before us became transformed into a wall of flame, and un-
der that fiery simoon our line seemed actually to wilter and curl
up; while in front of us and on both our flanks, the very earth
swarmed with Federals. So nearly had we approached the enemy,
that the ornaments on their caps were readily distinguished, and
I remember noting even in that terrible moment, that our im-
mediate adversaries were the 3rd Iowa Infantry.

Oakland Church of the Brethren Invites Children to Cave Quest VBS: Following Jesus, the Light of the World!
A summer kids' event called Cave Quest VBS will be hosted at Oakland Church of the Brethren in Bradford, Ohio from July 11th to July 15th. At Cave Quest, kids explore what it means to follow Jesus through dark times. Kids participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, make and dig into yummy treats, experience one-of-a-kind Bible adventures, collect Bible Memory Buddies to remind them of Jesus' love, and test out Sciency-Fun Gizmos they'll take home and play with all summer long. Plus, kids will learn to look for evidence of God all around them through something called God Sightings. Each day concludes with a Cave Quest Closing that gets everyone involved in living what they've learned. Family members and friends are encouraged to join in daily for this special time at 8:00 pm.
Kids at Cave Quest VBS will join a missions effort to supply backpacks and school supplies to children in need through the Church World Service Organization.
Cave Quest is for kids from 3 & potty trained through 5th grade and will run from 6:00pm to 8:15pm each day. For more information, call 937-448-2287.

London: An actor appearing alongside Kenneth Branagh in `Macbeth` was hospitalised after a fight scene went wrong.
The unnamed man sustained an injury while acting out a sword fight involving Branagh during a stage production of the show at a deconsecrated Victorian church in Manchester, England, reported Telegraph online.
The actor, who is said to have been struck with a metal sword, played through the pain to complete his turn on stage, but was taken to hospital after the curtain came down.
The production is part of the Manchester International Festival, and a spokesman for the event confirmed the injured actor was not seriously hurt.

Player Name
Lance Cole
Temporally Addled Anesthesiologist
Lance's Lives: At the beginning of each day, or on waking up from a nap/rest/coma/whatever Doctor Cole will roll 1d6, the result corresponding to one of the Doctor's six most persistent mindsets. Number One, A centurion of Ancient Rome. Two, a french monster hunter, who stalked throughout the country during the Reign Of Terror, slaying those fiends and demons who were thriving off of, and encouraging the bloodshed of the time. Speaks only french. Third, a magnanimous, steel-minded, sneaky Imperial magistrate working for the South Chinese Paranormal office. The fourth is just good old regular Doctor Cole. Five, Ripper, And Six, Detective, respectively are very unique personalities. All fate points can be expended by Cole to push himself back into his true mindset. Additionally, a GM can compel 'An Eye For Time' to force the doctor into any of his mindsets. UPDATE: The Monster hunter has been cut free from Dr. Cole's mind. The scale has been shifted to 1d5, with each persona moved down a number. 3 is now 2, 4 is now 3, 5 is 1.
Things Were?? Are Right Wrong Once Now!: Lance has many iron-clad memories of how things were. And how things are. And how they should be. Lance believes overwhelmingly in these convictions, despite that they change often.
It doesn't have to hurt at ALL: Lance has become much much less stringent in how he applies his sedatives to patients. He's an expert at alleviating suffering, on top of that. On the negative side of things, Dr. Cole himself has built up a bit of an unhealthy tolerance for sedatives because of past indiscretions.
An Eye For Time Lance perceives the world through different filters of consciousnesses as various lives struggle in his mind for dominance. Occasionally, this will grant him a useful new perspective on a problem, but much more often than not, it leaves him massively bewildered, and disoriented. (Example: He'll go from perceiving the world with the everyday knowledge of a modern man, to that of a Colonial Era English Settler)
Put down that scalpel: Dr. Cole has a severe, occasionally violent stigma against fellow practitioners who experiment on their patients. He has several histories with one such mann.
Cat's Eye: Lance has a new left eye, the form and function of a house cat's eye with a golden iris. This eye has human level acuity, limited color vision, but excellent night vision. It can also see some supernatural manifestations. ((This aspect provides Lance with a passive +1 to visual perception checks at night and against visibly detectable supernatural phenomena.))

Personal History
Ever since a mission involving SCP-276, the Time Schooner, Lance has lived at least two different lives for the Foundation. When The Event happened, those lives collapsed together, the experiences of one, or perhaps more different instances of the doctor crammed themselves into the mind of the original. He's no longer sure which of the lives he remembers is the one he actually experienced, not to mention the fact that they blend together occasionally.
After spending a brief few days with the Convoy, Time tugged Lance back into it's chaos. He has been very busy since then, fighting for his life as a gladiator. The doctor was made to pick up some new skills, very quickly. He's not talking, but the surgical scars that run rampant across his body hint at whatever befell him in his most recent foray into history.
|Lance, prior to vanishing into time.
|He's kinda like this now. On the inside.

Gigi Hadid Says She Can 'Give a Good Punch!'
Gigi Hadid is opening up about how important it is for her to stay active!
The model shared her thoughts at her recent boxing/self-defense class with Gotham Gym trainer Rob Piela as part of Reebok's #PerfectNever campaign.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Gigi Hadid
"I couldn't just come here and sign up for a gym and go running," Gigi told Teen Vogue. "I needed to find something that gave me a coach, gave me a family. When I walk into Gotham, they don't care about me as a model or what my body looks like – they care that I give a good punch! That's how I want to be judged, because that's what I find pride in."
"That's why being an athlete was such a big part of me being proud of myself and proud of my skin," she added. "My coaches didn't care about how I looked, they care about me because I was a good teammate and a good friend and I worked really hard. Those are the things that made me feel strong."
Pictured inside: Gigi shopping at Victoria's Secret on Thursday (December 8) in New York City, and her sister Bella Hadid arriving at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, France, to catch a flight to New York on Wednesday (December 7).
Click inside to read what Gigi had to say about how she deals with gossip…
"Sometimes you have hard days and sometimes people judge you just by guessing from a photo," Gigi said. "Like she's a bad girlfriend because she wasn't smiling the second she walked out the door or she's this or she's that … You start to think you're supposed to be perfect in all of these moments, but you have to remind yourself that you do everything with good intent. The mental thing is the most important thing."
"Before modeling, my mom said, 'develop yourself and what you think about yourself before you go into an industry where the rest of the world is going to judge you,'" she added.

On The Importance Of Unfettered Broadband
from the it-goes-beyond-just-movies dept
Tim Lee has a great post making the point that it goes well beyond just "how much bandwidth does a single person need" or even looking at what specifically they're downloading, to recognizing the change in tradeoffs for creating applications if bandwidth is effectively unlimited. As he notes, in any engineering situation, there are resource tradeoffs. If you're building an application, there are tradeoffs to making a client side app vs. a web-based app, for example. However, if bandwidth is truly abundant, the very nature of those tradeoffs change and it allows for entirely different types of development, often in ways that are difficult to fathom right now.
Lee gives a few random examples of what unlimited bandwidth might allow as the tradeoffs change:
People with cable or satellite TV service are used to near-instantaneous, flawless video content, which is difficult to stream reliably over a packet-switched network. So the television of the future is likely to be a peer-to-peer client that downloads anything it thinks its owner might want to see and caches it for later viewing. This isn't strictly necessary, but it would improve the user experience. Likewise, there may be circumstances where users want to quickly load up their portable devices with several gigabytes of data for later offline viewing.So the question is not how much bandwidth does any person really need. It's how will the entire ecosystem of what we can do change when bandwidth is completely abundant?
Finally, and probably most importantly, higher bandwidth allows us to economize on the time of the engineers building online applications. One of the consistent trends in the computer industry has been towards greater abstraction. There was a time when everyone wrote software in machine language. Now, a lot of software is written in high-level languages like Java, Perl, or Python that run slower but make life a lot easier for programmers. A decade ago, people trying to build rich web applications had to waste a lot of time optimizing their web applications to achieve acceptable performance on the slow hardware of the day. Today, computers are fast enough that developers can use high-level frameworks that are much more powerful but consume a lot more resources. Developers spend more time adding new features and less time trying to squeeze better performance out of the features they already have. Which means users get more and better applications.
The same principle is likely to apply to increased bandwidth, even beyond the point where we all have enough bandwidth to stream high-def video. Right now, web developers need to pay a fair amount of attention to whether data is stored on the client or the server and how to efficiently transmit it from one place to another. A world of abundant bandwidth will allow developers to do whatever makes the most sense computationally without worrying about the bandwidth constraints.

The Falls Festival is in doubt, with organisers set to make a decision this afternoon about going ahead, following devastating bushfires.
Up to 60 homes were destroyed by fire on Christmas Day in Lorne, the location of Falls' Victorian leg, and while the music festival's site is not directly in the path of ongoing bushfires, organisers are yet to make a call.
"We have just concluded our emergency services meeting, we continuing to work through the current situation with all authorities," organisers announced in a statement.
"We will have a clear decision on how the festival will proceed for you all by 5pm today. We understand your need to be informed, the situation is changing from hour to hour and we are working through this as quickly as possible."
Ticket holders are expected to be notified of the decision as soon as possible.
Falls Festival is expected to attract more than 16,000 revellers and includes an all-star domestic and international line up, including Bloc Party and Courtney Barnett.
The sold-out annual music festival was launched in 1994 and was due to kick off on Monday.
The holiday spot of Lorne was evacuated yesterday as a large out-of-control bushfire moved in.
Firefighters are still battling blazes nearby, although cooler temperatures and rainfall has helped ease the dangerous conditions.

India dominated the limited over series against Australia with a 4-1 win to reclaim the number one ODI rankings and Virat Kohli and his men would be keen for a perfect finish to the T20I series.
A reliable pool of bowlers in both pace and spin department to complement their traditional batting might is what makes Virat Kohli's side look so formidable.
They have looked flawless, be it against reigning world champions Australia or a new-look Sri Lanka.
The rise of Hardik Pandya, the guile of the two wrist spin duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal have made life difficult for Australia in the one-day series.
But come T20Is, it could be worse for Australia as India boast of a 9-3 head-to-head record.
In the last T20I bilateral series, India made a 3-0 clean sweep in Australia in January last year while they have lost only once out of the five series played between the two nations.
For India, all eyes would be on old warhorse Ashish Nehra who has been recalled for the T20I series, having last played against England in February this year.
The 38-year-old's ability to notch up pace and his death bowling ability will be a key factor for India as the left-arm pacer would add variety to the pace attack of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah.
Nehra has played 26 T20Is and took 34 wickets and still has the world batsmen in awe, something that was seen during the Sunrisers Hyderabad's campaign in IPL.
Man-of-the-series in the ODI series, Pandya -- 222 runs at an average of 55.50 and six wickets - has been able to establish himself as a key player in the side. He is seen as a vital cog in the wheel for India's road to 2019 World Cup.
His match-winning 66-ball 83 at number 7 in the first ODI in Chennai with a hattrick of sixes against Adam Zampa not only demoralised the Aussies but virtually sealed the momentum of the series in favour of India.
Then came a 72-ball 78 after he was promoted to number 4 in the Indore third ODI. The Baroda lad will turn 24 next week and he has already being levelled as the next 'Kapil Dev in the making'.
Pandya along with Kedar Jadhav will be the two key Indian allrounders while opener Rohit Sharma, the top run-getter in the ODI series (296 runs), will look to continue his good run.
Shikhar Dhawan, who had opted out of the five-match ODI series, is back after attending to his ill wife, while there's also KL Rahul who has been chosen ahead of Ajinkya Rahane despite the latter's four successive fifties in the ODIs.
Rahul has happy memories of Ranchi as the last time India played at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in a Test versus Australia, he scored a 67 in a drawn affair.
His return from a shoulder injury has not been up to the mark as he did not get a chance in the ODI series but Rahul has been retained for the T20I series and he would look to make it count.
For Australia, it's paramount to get back to winning rhythm with the Ashes series beckoning in a month's time. Their over reliance on Steve Smith and David Warner and the middle order's failure to capitalise was the reason behind Australia's failure in the ongoing series.
Since his outstanding tour of India in February and March, Smith has managed 347 runs at 34.70 in 10 ODIs in the Champions Trophy and tours of Bangladesh and India, and is yet to score a century.
With middle order equally inconsistent, the onus will be on the opening duo of Warner and Aaron Finch to give them a strong start.
Finch scored 250 runs in three innings, while Warner made 245 runs from five outings in the just-concluded ODI series and they would hold the key to their campaign in the T20Is.
Uncapped left-arm speedster Jason Behrendorff, along with wicketkeeper-batsman Tim Paine, all-rounders Moises Henriques and Dan Christian, are the new additions in Australia's T20I squad.
With James Pattinson ruled out for the Ashes, Behrendorff will be closely monitored in the T20I series. He along with Nathan Coulter-Nile, the leading wicket-taker in the ODI series, will look to make an impact.
Behrendorff maintained that the "morale" of the side is good despite the 1-4 loss in the ODI series. "We speak a lot about having a good attitude at training and games. We are doing everything we can to remain positive.
That's a big part for the new guys coming into the group. We need to keep the ground buzzing," the rookie pacer said.

Demand for long-dated bonds is on the up. Bonds with a maturity of 50 years or 'Methuselah' bonds (so called in reference to the oldest man in the Hebrew bible) are increasingly being issued in Europe. France and Belgium issued 50-year bonds in the past month and Italy is likely to join the fray soon.
This is all about the constraints that pension funds and insurance companies are under to buy certain assets. Fixed income assets make up the majority. Some have fixed annual payment targets and so require a certain yield on their investments. However, in Europe, a weak economic outlook and low central bank rates have pushed the yield on some investments below zero. This has forced these types of investors to buy bonds with longer maturities to obtain the yield they need to meet pay-outs.
No one can predict how any one country's economy will look in 30 or 50 years
Regulation means these investors are limited to investing the majority of their assets in the less risky sovereign bond market. However, long-dated bonds are inherently more volatile than bonds with a shorter maturity. They are far more vulnerable to changes in interest rates and risks posed by changes in the economy from which they derive. No one can predict how any one country's economy will look in 30 or 50 years. 20 years ago, the eurozone hadn't even been created. It would be very unwise to guess how Europe's economy will look in another 50 years.
Long-dated bonds are here to stay. Spain has joined the Methuselah party too, issuing a 50-year bond last week. They dipped their toe in the water last year when they issued a 50-year bond through private placement (probably when investors themselves approached the Spanish government asking them to issue long-dated bonds). Ireland and Belgium also issued privately placed 100-year bonds just last month.
So there's clear demand and the issues have performed relatively well post issuance. However given this, there will likely be a more concerted supply response from Debt Management Offices which may see the sheen come off the sector.

Do You Demand Flowers From Your Staff?
What are you supposed to buy for your wife for Valentine's Day? Quick, first thing that pops into your mind ...
Right: flowers. A dozen long-stemmed red roses. Because decades of consistent marketing has worked its magic on you. You could debate that it should be a box of chocolates, or jewelry, and I'd say that's because those two industries have been advertising just as hard.
But have you noticed the hidden assumption? That you're "supposed to" buy something at all. No matter how aggressively the flower, candy and jewelry industries market against each other, none of them will ever contradict this fundamental belief: That extravagant purchases are the approved way to demonstrate commitment.
Most modern American corporations expect you to demonstrate your commitment, too. But instead of flowers the symbol of your commitment is time. Time above and beyond the forty hours you're supposed to work. Time eating at your desk instead of going out to lunch. Time on call via the Blackberry they gave you.
Doing good, steady work is better for the company. But late-night marathons of work get noticed. If you plan well and execute, you don't need late nights, but then there's never a clear moment for the boss to look at and say, "That moment really showed commitment."
In a perfect world, the boss would take the extra effort to recognize good, steady performance. And that's exactly what it takes: extra effort. Which is why it happens so rarely. Even if you're doing things on time, it seems that sometimes you have to put in the late night to get noticed. Because this isn't a perfect world.
But you may be in a position to make the world a little better. If you are the boss, make the extra effort. Publicly recognize employees who reach their goals during normal working hours. Make it clear that late nights are a symptom of poor planning. Demand extra work because it needs to be done, not just to show commitment.
It may be less exciting, and less obvious, but in the long run it's much more productive.

BIRTH Charts
For thousands of years, Chinese astrologists have studied the positioning of the planets during a person's time of birth, searching to understand connections between their traits of personality, and etc. As I've seen through myself and my friends, these ancient Chinese birth charts are relatively accurate. The analyses hold relevance in our lives, and the same predictions are documented at many different sources! …Hard-copy resources or internet websites, no matter where you go to find this information, it will tell you the same!
Depending on the time of day you were born, in what month, and during which year, Chinese Birth Charts have designated an animal symbol. Each of the animal synopses (based on astral configuration at the moment of birth) can explain specific traits about a person's life. It's fun to read into your astrological birth chart! To find the animal assigned to you, based on your TIME/MONTH/YEAR of birth, click on any of the options below:

A South Korean woman was one of the four people killed after a New York City commuter train derailed early Sunday, the foreign ministry said Monday.
The Metro-North Railroad train heading to Manhattan ran off the tracks while rounding a sharp curve in the city's Bronx borough at around 7:20 a.m. (local time), killing two men and two women and injuring more than 60 other passengers.
"One of the four killed in the train accident was found to be a 35-year-old South Korean woman named Ahn Kisook, of Queens, she was nurse " an official at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said. "she was on her way back home after night shift at nursing home in Brooklyn"
No other South Koreans were affected by the train derailment, the official said.
Ahn Kisook, of Queens, arrived in the U.S. a year ago and was working as a nurse in Brooklyn. She was among those killed in Sunday's Metro-North crash in the Bronx

Fantastic work done once again. Completed bodywork to a fantastic standard within 3 days. Extra spray job done for free aswell. Best in north west London
Amazing work and very quick! definitely recommend it
I selected this garage on the strength of their reviews here and I was not disappointed! After 2 previous quotes with some eye-watering prices, I was relieved to receive a competitive offer from MCS Garage. On Monday I incurred some minor scratches on the rear RH door and denting on the wheel arch, but as the car belongs to my brother (and I was due to return it that Friday) it was of major importance I have this fixed without impacting his insurance premium, ie. at a price I could afford. Shahid and his team were extremely professional, and called ahead to discuss the repair with me and a time to bring in the car. He was confident it was fixable, and was happy to squeeze me in at short notice. The garage is in Edgeware, so being in Sutton (South London) it was a bit out of my way, but for a competitive price and for the positive reviews it was worth the extra drive. They took the car in next day! which was perfect for me, and both bodywork and respray were complete by COB Thursday. The quality of the repair was very professional - there was no evidence it had been damaged at all. There is no feature to provide before and after photos but if I could, you would see for yourself! Yes I would recommend this garage 100%. If you are looking for a mechanic who takes pride in his work and will not rip you off I would recommend Shahid, Ali & team for any work you need doing.
Amazing service they fitted me in the same week on a Saturday and was able to complete job the same day as requested even though they were busy. Found the garage easily and You would not known my car had been dented or scratched brilliant job. Friendly professional staff and price was the best from about 6 other quotes by far. Highly recommend thank you Shahid and Ali and all the staff at MCS garage.
Good job. Will recommend.
I supplied my own parts and did exactly what I wanted the mechanic to do. He even gave me feedback on what i should do to maintain my car.
They were friendly efficient on time and on price My sons car has benefited from their work I will use them again Thank you Alperton Johnnie
By far the best mechanic I've been to in London, communication was superb I was informed during the whole process, price was very good compair to other quotations I received elsewhere. Majeed is a super star. This will be my regular garage from now on. Thanks you again.
Great service, timely collection of vehicle
Very good and efficient service
Very friendly, very happy with the customer service and the service itself. very explanatory about other issues. Will use again if needed. Thanks a lot!
Excellent garage. Requested a time I needed my car done and they were more than happy to help me. Price was as quoted online. Definitely will be returning for future jobs.
I found the garage in this website which I had never used before. I booked a MOT and service with them based purely on the reviews other custohad left and I was not disappointed. The price was reasonable and the service was professional. I found them to be honest and open and I would definitely use them again.
Honest and reliable mechanic. Would highly recommend. Excellent value for money. I will be using this garage again.
Absolutely fine
Very satisfied with their work. My left passenger door and left rear door + bumper was damaged on roadside leaving a huge dent and full of scratches. They did a really nice job and the car looks brand new again. I do recommend it to others.
Great service. Good communication and friendly service throughout. No hard sell. All work done as agreed.
Very quick and helpful.
Perfect repair, on time and on estimate. Good communication. Great customer service! Have already recommended C and R! Thanks guys!
Amazing experience from start to finish. The family run business were polite and always curtious. My car was finished prestigiously.
Price for Mot and Servicing was very reasonable. Opted for the optional/recommended brake fluid change, otherwise would have been 145. Quite happy.
Everything went as it should have, car pick up was prompt and drop off as Communication was great after hours as well! Will recommend!
Polite and thorough and even offered me a cup of tea while I waited. When I asked how to proceed they called me up and arranged for the repairs to be done the same day. I didn't get a proper receipt detailing the repair for my records but other than that I have no reservations to go back again for other repairs.
Good service. Knew what they were doing. Picked up and dropped off car from my home, which was helpful.
Very friendly and professional service. Collected and dropped off the car from where I work and did the work very quickly. Would recommend to anyone!
Very good
Good and friendly group of people, very helpful with a good and fast service.
Excellent service. They've checked everything plus removed all dry mud from under the car. Definitely will come back there if any other problem will occur! :)
All cool
Fast and easy

Patrick did a fantastic job with my car. He refurbished my alloys as new. Patrick gives his clients really good customer service and is really approachable. Would highly recommend.

The audacity of good writing
I have been fascinated and much impressed by Obama's Dreams from My Father – I roughly knew about his eccentric background and expected an interesting and much better than average aspiring politician's memoir. But I certainly didn't expect this: genuinely good writing – which in this form requires high, disinterested intelligence, honesty and a robust, unsentimental moral vision of life. All factors surely more or less grave hindrances in an aspiring politician. This is not to say that the text wouldn't hide things and wouldn't paper over some serious counter-points. But the reader has the feeling of engaging in a serious and open intellectual argument. With a mainstream politician, of all people, quite a surreal experience I have to say. What on earth is this man doing presiding over a corrupt and decadent, decaying political system? The beginning has certainly not been very good – surely an FDR would have radically seized these opportunities? Instead we have had overly cautious, overly modest half-hearted approaches. And FDR was a deceitful, devious, egocentred person, not interested in abstract thought or robust moral views of life. An intelligent and honest person might not be the best choice for that position. Well, with these poisonous and hateful forces rampant in the USA, it might not be the era for an FDR at all, probably a Father Coughlin would have rather better chances. Perhaps overly dramatic, but I could not avoid some dark forebodings reading this excellent, perceptive book - he is made for a perfect hate figure for these atavistic, hysterical reactionary forces.

Thursday, September 25, 2014
On Wednesday 24th September nearly 60 participants joined BGS and DairyCo at Home Farm, Newton St Cyres, near Exeter for the first of our demonstration events kindly hosted by Quickes Traditional.
Adam Reeves, Farm Manager at Quickes Traditional, kicked off by explaining why he got involved with the Demo Farm initiative in the first place. "Two key aspects for us are how we manage our slurry and waste water and how we maintain soil structure to maximise grass productivity and quality. We use a slurry separator, so are very interested in finding out about the fertiliser value of our separated liquid fraction. In the past we have identified soil compaction in grazing paddocks through digging soil pits, meaning that we want to investigate the best course of action for remediation and the improvements we can expect through adopting different strategies."
Soil Compaction
Speaking on this theme which cuts across our demo farms initiative, BGS's Charlotte Evans explained that numerous reports now suggest that as much as 70% of our grasslands are suffering some degree of compaction. Going to talk about exactly why this is an issue of concern for farmers and environmental managers alike; "We know that a compacted soil has less infiltration and increased water-logging and run-off, we know that soil nutrients are less available in compacted soils and that applied N is therefore wasted or has an increased risk of being lost via run-off. What has been less clear so far is the effect of compaction on yield, through DairyCo funded research and demo farms we are beginning to see evidence both from university and farm settings that loosening compacted grassland soils can increase grass productivity by around 20%."
Dr George Fisher then led the group in a practical demonstration of in-field soil structural assessment, the key massages being the cost effectiveness of digging assessment pits to understand what you are dealing with before investing in remediation.
"Surface compaction, down to about 8-10cm, can be tackled with a surface aerator; anything deeper would indicate a sward-lifter being the machine for the job."
Another vital aspect is timing, the soil needing to be neither too wet nor too dry. A take-home technique could be the soil squeeze test, whereby squeezing a clod of soil in your hand gives you a rough indication of working conditions: If it leaves your hand wet, it's too wet, whilst if you can throw it to the ground and it breaks apart then it's too dry.
Slurry Separation and Utilisation
A major part of the demonstration at home farm is assessing the efficiency of slurry separation and the effectiveness of the resulting liquid fraction as a fertiliser on grassland. "There is currently very little research data on the topic of separated slurry" said DairyCo R&D Manager, Debbie Mc Connell as she explained that the data coming from Home Farm is adding significantly to our ability to work out how to manage and utilise separated slurry to maximise profitability – "We are looking at slurry separation from too cost-benefit perspectives i) how much does it reduce slurry by volume and is this worth it in terms of managing storage issues and ii) the nutrient status of the separated fractions and their value as a fertiliser on grassland." She demonstrated that above all the results being obtained are underlining the importance of getting slurry analysed, not least because its nutrient status can vary widely from the published book figures but also because proper nutrient planning, accounting for nutrients from slurries, can shave £100's from the annual fertiliser bill.
Another element of the demo farm is looking into slurry application technique as at home farm they surface aerate with a knife style slitter at the same time as spreading the liquid fraction with an umbilical and splash-plate. We have established test paddocks to track and compare yield under this treatment, slurry only and no slurry or slitting.
Existing research shows increased DM yield using shallow injectors and trailing shoes compared to surface applied, hence the interest into whether slitting can increase infiltration rates therefore promoting an increased Nitrogen efficiency and quicker return time in the grazing rotation.
Presenting the Farm Crap App, a tool to help farmers manage slurry and manure, we were also delighted to hear from Becky Wilson from Duchy College Rural Business School. Attendees were able to try out the app on tablets available at the event and participated in a challenge to guess the rate of application from in-field photographs. Becky summarised by saying "knowing how much you are spreading is a vital skill as we are faced with increasing fertiliser costs, meaning that manures themselves are more valuable, and in light of NVZ regulations stating a maximum application of 50 m3 per hectare at any one time."
BGS is a membership organisation which acts as a communication forum, through events and publications, for the profitable and sustainable use of grass and forage.
