Psalm 23 Moving around with Boss man
Lord God, You're my ultimate Boss man. With You in charge I have it all. You're always renewing me in body and mind. It's in Your nature to take me through life along amazing scenic routes, with quality stopovers for refreshment and relaxation!
Yes I experience challenges and and even life-threatening situations – but I'm not scared. Because You're right by my side, reassuring me and encouraging me with Your guidance and protection.
What's more, You're setting me up for a fantastically rich future. And everyone can see it! You acknowledge me and affirm me – it's almost too much.
I'm so excited about Your blessings and grace following me all the days of my life … and I can't wait to live with You for ever. You're my Boss man!

Whom or what I depend on
I recently realised that I was hopelessly dependent on money and time. I believed that if I had money the bulk of my challenges in life would be over. If I had more time, if I could somehow organise myself better and draw my boundaries better, then any challenges remaining (after the money issue was sorted) would fizzle out too. Yes money and time would sort me out. They were all I needed for a fruitful and happy life. But God said to me the other day "Thou shalt have no other gods before me"
I'm a Christian. I believe and love my Lord. He gave Himself for me when He died on the cross of Calvary. I know He wants all of me. He's a jealous God. I've given myself to Him and really love this experience with my Special Friend. Really love being lead and encouraged by Him to develop – to grow and change for His glory. He leads me through the valley to pastures green. The other day He said to me "You shall not make for yourself an idol."
These things that I now recognise as my old idols – I now realise they were horrible masters. Cruel and fickle. Destructive and disruptive. I'm so glad to throw them out the window with God's help, to cast them away from me. Yes we need money. Yes we need time. But my Heavenly Father knows I have need of these. He said to me the other day "Seek Ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness." He said "All these things shall be added unto you."
Thank you Lord for being so patient with me, for waiting for me – finally I get it! Put You and Your righteousness first, and You will provide the money and time I need to face my challenges! Money and time are resources that belong to you! So simple yet so deep. So rewarding yet so obscure. I found a hidden pearl of great price. I rejoice in God my Saviour.

Bible verses quoted:- Ex.20.3 KJV, Ex.20.4 NIV and Matt.6.33 KJV
Making a Difference
God sent Jesus to preach good news to me, to heal my broken heart, to announce my freedom from the prison house of sin and death, and to pardon me. He sent Him to announce to me the year of His grace – a celebration of the destruction of my enemies – and to comfort me as I mourn, to care for my needs, to give me bouquets of roses instead of ashes, messages of joy instead of news of doom, to give me a praising heart instead of a languid spirit. He renamed me an Oak of Righteousness planted by Him to display His glory! (Based on Isaiah 61:1-3 MSG)
This affirmation tells me that God wants me to grow and flourish in all areas of my life; He wants me to make a positive difference in the lives of others.
You have probably heard of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. It's not new. This is the hierarchy:-
Level 5 – Self-actualisation / fulfillment
Level 4 – Self-esteem & recognition
Level 3 – Belonging & love
Level 2 – Safety & security- self-preservation
Level 1 – Physiological – food & shelter, survival
Maslow puts self-centred needs at the bottom – the basic needs, but finishes off with self-actualisation at the top – orientation to service and connection with others. These needs are genuine. They are part of our humanity – the way God has made us. The higher needs in this hierarchy only come into focus when the lower needs are met. Once an individual has moved upwards to the next level, needs in the lower level will no longer be prioritised. If a lower set of needs is no longer being met, the individual will temporarily re-prioritise those needs by focusing attention on the unfulfilled needs, but will not permanently regress to the lower level. E.g. a man having an asthma attack focuses at that moment purely on the need for air, rather than the need for a sense of fulfillment in his life …
Accept the gifts
Recently I've realised more fully that the best I can do for my Saviour is to accept everything He has done, and wants to do, for me! If I invite Him to do so, He will give me faith, cleansing from sin, and love. These three gifts empower me to live the Christian life – a life of success and fulfillment.
Therefore I speak these words of affirmation and power:-
"I have faith in Jesus Christ – I accept it"
"I am covered by the merits of Jesus' blood – I accept the atonement"
"I am filled with His love – I accept His love for me and His pouring it into my heart"
The Bible verses that I claim are:-
1 Corinthians 12.7-9 NIV Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,
Romans 12.3 NIV …in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
Jude 1.3 CEV …I must write and ask you to defend the faith that God has once for all given to his people.
1 John 1:7 NIV But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
Lev 17.13 NLT It is the blood, given in exchange for a life, that makes purification possible.
Rev 7.15 NIV And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Romans 5:5 NKJV Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

I Am Significant
Most of us live our life in the shadow of negative thoughts. I am not good. Why is life unfair? It is such a trial. I am so discouraged. When you get into the Bible there is nothing there but positive uplifting words of encouragement. Positive power. The life every Christian can live every day is one of victory and success. It is disturbing when in church people pray "Lord Jesus, forgive us. We have sinned so greatly this week. We have let you down. O Lord we are so weak…." and so on.
When we pray that kind of prayer we will live that kind of life. Every prayer of every Christian should be, " Lord, thank you for the victories you have given me today. Thank you for the unlimited power of God. Thank you that I have victory in Christ now. Thank you that you are my Redeemer. Thank you that I stand faultless before the throne of glory".
Our prayers should be prayers of power. That is what a life in Christ is all about.
I Am Significant
Matthew 5:13,14 – I am the salt and light of the earth.
John 15:1,5 – I am a branch of the true vine, a channel of his life.
John 15:26 – I have been chosen and appointed to bear fruit.
Acts 1:8 – I am a personal witness of Christ.
1Corinthians 3:16 – I am God's temple.
2Corinthians 5:17-21 – I am a minister of reconciliation for God.
2Corinthians 6:1 – I am God's co-worker.
Ephesians 2:6 – I am seated with Christ in the heavenly realm.
Ephesians 2:10 – I am God's workmanship.
Ephesians 3:12 – I may approach God with freedom and confidence.
Philippians 4:13 – I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Try getting up every morning and reading these affirmations. I let them fill and saturate my mind. I bathe in them. I look in the mirror and say, "I am God's child. I am forgiven. I stand uncondemned. " I put these statements into my life. Every day. I am experiencing the power of God in a way I have never ever done before. Life has just begun. I am into my devotional time. I have a covenant with God. I am thankful of so many things in my life.

Coming to Terms with Life
I want to continue exploring what the Bible says about mastering your life. I believe in the Bible and I believe it has the power to change lives. I am putting my life forward. I want to change. Religion however is something else. It has caused more heartache and problems, including wars, than anything else that has existed in the world. I love the Bible but hate religion. I love and appreciate many things about the Bible and Christianity because the Bible is a book that makes sense. Christianity is a faith that can be tested. It is built on truth. It is built on evidence. It is built on prophecy. It is built on fact.
There are many life mastery programs out there. I am researching the Bible because I believe the other programs fall short on principles. I believe it is impossible to reach your full potential without a complete belief on the Bible and the God of the Bible. Everything around us testifies to a creator God. Any intelligent person has to acknowledge the presence of a Creator God. Look around you. Look at everything in our universe how orderly it is. Look at all the laws that govern every single aspect of our universe.
Look at the watch on your arm. The watch did not come by existence by itself. It came into existence by organised intelligence. Some form of intelligence, a human one. Suppose the watch has a hundred parts in it. Take the parts and disassemble them. Put the parts in a box. You can shake the box for a hundred billion years and the watch parts will never assemble themselves into a smooth working watch. That is correct. Now that is a simple watch with a hundred parts.
Consider now our entire universe. Think about how well the different parts of the universe work together, in perfect harmony. Look at all the laws that are fixed and govern everything. Look at yourself. The image of God. As God created you. Your own internal world. Your ability to love and be loved. Your ability to reproduce someone else just like yourself. That is not the result of random chance. It cannot be. There is all kinds of evidence that there is a Creator God and this God has an incredible plan for your life.
In fact can I know this God? Can this God make an overall difference in my life. Can God make a difference in my overall success and achievement in life? The answer is an absolute YES. I want to tap into this source of power that I have only had a glimpse of before. God's power is limitless. There is no end to the power that can come into our lives when we connect to God, in a relationship with Him.
Most people go through life powerless. Completely powerless. Which is easier to be good or to be bad? The typical answer is BAD. Is it easier to be positive or negative to life? Always the typical answer is negative. Is it easier to do wrong or to do what is right? It is easier to do wrong. Is it easier to be a failure or a success? Easier to be a failure. Why is it easier to be bad, negative, to do wrong and to be a failure? Why? What is the cause? It boils down to a simple three letter word. SIN.
Sin is the single most detrimental thing there is in the world to destroy your life. Sin is the greatest enemy to your success and achievement in life. Sin is the most debilitating emotion that people feel on a daily basis. Sin brings on feelings like guilt and shame and anger and defeat. Sin destroys yourself worth. It destroys your relationships. It can be devastating to your finances. It will ruin your health. Sin is the underlying root cause of all our poverty and inability to live lives of success and power. This is an absolute Bible fact. Inside of everybody in our societies there is a desire for something better in our lives. Everybody wants more happiness. Everybody wants more money in their life. Everybody wants a better marriage and fulfilling relationships.
You are reading this because there is a desire in you to have a better life, to achieve more, to master things in your life. Everybody has that desire. Where does that desire come from? Who put that desire in you? How does it exist? What does the Bible tell us? God. God put that desire in you. It is my Creator who actually put that feeling in me. God has created every single one of us as human beings of unlimited potential. Unlimited greatness and unlimited power. Jesus says, "I have come that they may have life and have it more abundantly". And God knows that the single most damaging element in my life to keep me from achieving that success and that power is the thing called sin. The good news is that God knows how to get rid of sin and put in its place the unlimited power that will live in my life.

Five Steps to Success
God has made me in His image. He has placed in me unlimited power, unlimited potential. What do I have to do to achieve this? There are 5 steps that I must adopt in my life to begin achieving success.
1. Decide to follow God and Bible principles.
2. Decide what you want out of life in every single area.
3. Take specific actions to achieve your purpose and goals.
4. Monitor your results consistently.
5. Be adaptable, make necessary changes, and role model.
Step 1. Decide what you want out of life in every single area. This is fundamental. Maybe you have never given God a chance in your life. I am going for this. God has to be in my life.
Step 2. Decide what you want out of life in every single area. Life everlasting. My debts paid. A good marriage. A happy home. Money must not control my life, I must control money. A successful business life, apbGlobal, Success University, the best of Zambia, saraBrown.co.uk, Prophetic Verses, my list is long. Decide for yourself reader. Most people wander through life not knowing what they really want. They settle for far less than they are capable of achieving. Your beliefs, everything, must be decided. When that happens life begins to move towards your targets in life. You cannot hit a target until it is in place. You have to know what the target is. Your brain is then activated and has something to work towards. One thing common about all successful men and women. They were clear about what they wanted in life.
Step 3. Take specific actions to achieve your purpose and goals. Most people never get to this point because they spend their time whining. "I don't know about that. What if I fail? Maybe someday." Someday never comes. "Maybe I'll win the lottery tomorrow." Someday is right now. The road to Someday leads to the town Nowhere. I have decide that I am not going to be anything less than what God has created me to be. I take specific action to improve my life every day. Take one area of life, maybe the physical area, the financial area, the emotional area, the spiritual area, whatever. Take one thing a day and concentrate on that for one day. And improve it 1%. The following day took another area and improved it 1%. The following day you take your emotional life and improved it 1%. How much would you be able to do over a year – 365% improvement. Think of how life would be if it improved 1% a day for a year. That is a thousand % improvement in 3 years. Losers are people that make excuses for not investing in themselves. Improving their minds and lives. "I can't afford it." Losers have money for beer. Losers have money for cigarettes. Losers have money for cable television. They have money for football tickets. Money for everything except for investment in their own minds. There are worthy poor and it is our privilege to help them. However there are people who can change their circumstances but don't. Losers have time for 60 hours of television a week. They have time for parties, they have time for sports and everything except time to improve themselves. Ignorance is one of the greatest enemies of mankind today. In modern society ignorance is self inflicted and inexcusable. Reader you have taken a step to improve or you would not be reading this. It is going to pay dividends for now and for all eternity.
Step 4. Monitor your results consistently. I ask myself if what I am doing is working for me. Am I learning from my mistakes for I certainly make many mistakes.
Step 5. Be adaptable, make necessary changes, and role model. People quit after they fail once or twice. I am learning to make failure my friend. I harness failure. Failure motivates me to attain a greater life of success. Another important choice in life that speeds self development is role modelling. This is following the example of other successful people. If you want to achieve weight loss follow the example of people who have achieved success in weight loss. If you want to achieve financial success role model people who have achieved financial success. If you want a great spiritual life then role model people like Jesus Christ. Anything you want in life role modelling really speeds up the process. Success and achievement always leaves clues. Pick up those clues step by step and then progress is accelerated. It is faster to learn from others than it is to learn from yourself and have to make all those necessary mistakes. There is a trap we often get into by thinking that knowledge is power. No, knowledge by itself is not power. Knowledge is only potential power. The other trap is the intelligence trap. People say to themselves that they have been to college, they have a degree, therefore I know everything. Their lives are not open to learn anything new. We tell our children all the time that if they don't get good grades they are never going to be successful. This is not true. Exhaustive research has been done on this subject. There is absolutely no correlation whatsoever in having good grades and having success in areas of life like – mental, spiritual, financial and everything else. No correlation at all. You do not have to be intelligent to be successful. Three quarters of America's millionaires have less than average intelligence.
Some people say you have to go to college to become intelligent. That is not true also. The majority of the most successful people in every area of life have never spent a single day in college. Fifty three percent of the college graduates in America are working for people that have never finished high school. I believe education is absolutely important. I believe in higher education. That is a very important part of life. Many people go to school, go to college , get a degree, even a PhD after their name and then they think they are going to be successful. There are millions of people all over the world that have high degrees, have high knowledge but their marriage is a disaster. There are people with a PhD after their name, but they are poor, they are broke. There are people that are well educated and are secure in their professions but they cannot master their emotions. They do not know how to master their bodies they are completely out of shape. Lord have mercy on me. If you want success in every area, physically , mentally , spiritually, in everything, in every area of your life do not get into the intelligence trap. Get to the state where you can say I am going to do all that God requires of me. I will follow all the Bible principles. The most powerful person in the world is the one who has achieved totally high and great education but also has mastered the principles of the Bible and lives a life of success and achievement. With that combination you have an incredibly powerful combination.
I thank God for the power He has already given me to live a life of all power. I claim this as a promise from God as a fact already taking place in my life. I believe with all my heart that God has given me all power.
John 1:12 NLV
He gave the right and the power to become children of God to those who received Him. He gave this to those who put their trust in His name.
Proverbs 16:3 NIV
Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.

Changing My Behaviour
The solution to every problem we have in life is to change our human behaviour. We do not have a drug problem in the world. We have a human behaviour problem. Teen age pregnancy is not the result of viruses floating around in the universe. Teenage pregnancy is the direct result of a specific human behaviour. If we want to achieve a life of success and power we have got to change all of our human behaviour. All the problems I have in my life, all the problems we have in society, all the problems we have in marriage, all the problems we have with our governments, these all boil down to human behaviour. I realise this. I can change. There are steps that I can take. There are actions that I can take. In our homes, in our churches, in whatever situation we can change and I want to learn how.
Mastery, self mastery comes from taking daily actions. Improve one thing. Improve 1% of your life. Through these small changes and accepting responsibility and recognising that it is my human behaviour that is responsible for everything in my life I can move my life forward in powerful ways. I am going to look at scripture here.
Proverbs 3 :21-23
"Have two goals, wisdom – that is knowing and doing right – and common sense. Don't let them slip away, for they will fill you with living energy, they will keep you safe from defeat and disaster and from stumbling off the trial."
These are two things that can begin to move my life in a very powerful way. A consistent weakness that I have is that I do not control the power of my focus and my will. Most of us focus on the negative. " I don't feel good. Why do bad things always happen to me? Why am I a failure? Why is life so unfair?" If you focus on that , you will be like that. Whatever we focus on we tend to become in our life.
Most people tend to spend their whole life focusing on minor things.
· How to make a living rather than living a great life.
· Their trials and problems instead of living an abundant life.
· Being discouraged and defeated instead of enthusiastic and achieving.
· On wandering aimlessly through life instead of reaching goals.
Concentrating on all this day to day stuff that is not important at all. And spending time on television, one of the greatest killers of time and inspiration.
Proverbs 12:11
"Hard work means prosperity, only a fool idles away his time."
You cannot hope to have a life of success if you do not have hope that achievement is going to come your way. Many people just sit around hoping their whole life and doing nothing about it. If you put good stuff into your life you are going to get good stuff out. My mind and my will are the most powerful tools that I have on this planet. God promises that if I follow his principles and use my mind and will properly, I am going to have a life of success.
I can achieve anything I want to because all things are possible through Christ. In a research project done a few years ago Stanford University established that most humans use only 2% of their brain. That means we are all exercising only a very small percentage of our God given potential.
The very first step for me to perform and achieve is to accept the fact that deep inside of me God has placed a vast bank of wisdom and knowledge and power and potential that I have so far simply failed to withdraw from. I have a million dollars in the bank and I never touch it. My mind is capable of anything. God says, "I can do anything I want with Him". Unlimited greatness. Unlimited potential. If only 2% of the brain is used what would happen if 4% was used. I would be twice as smart. If I learn to use 6% then I would be at the top 1% of the world population.
God has made me in his image. Unlimited power. Unlimited potential. That is the kind of life God wants to give me. I am going for it!
Most of us went to school, got a good education and got a good job. We were taught how to read and write. We may even have been taught a great profession. But we were never taught how to succeed in life.

Commit to be Wealthy
The first step to a life of achievement and power and success is to trust and reverence the Lord. Get it together with God. God does not play favourites. We are all created equal. We are all created unique but with equal opportunity. We experience life to the fullest. All successful people realize that, believe that and come to a turning point when they claim responsibility of their life. " I am responsible for my life and I am going to go forward with my life".
MacDonald's has over 30,000 outlets and it is reported that they have never had a single outlet fail. Why? MacDonald's is a proven success system. It simple works. It is the same with life mastery. They are principles in the Word of God. These principles just work. Therefore it follows that if I learn and apply them they should work for me. Same applies to you reader. Let's explore them.
Mastering life is really not difficult. It boils down to two principles.
1. A desire on your part.
2. A commitment to follow through in your daily life and apply they principles based on the Word of God.
All the dreams then that I have can happen in my life. Most people never commit to become wealthy. This is a fact. Most Christians never commit to become wealthy.
Taking the developed world as an example, consider 100 people at age 65 after 40 years of work:
1 Will be wealthy
4 Will be financially independent.
15 Will have a minimal savings, – not enough to retire on.
80 Will be flat broke, or in debt.
After years of hard work only 1 will be financially wealthy. Only 4 of them are going to be financially independent and be able to take care of themselves. 15 will have minimal savings but not enough to retire on. 80 out of 100 will be flat broke or in debt. This is shocking because we are living in one of the most affluent societies in the world. This is a terrible way to end up. This is what the Bible says.
Proverbs 3: 16-17
Wisdom gives a long good life, riches, honour, pleasure, and peace.
Every single one of us wants a long good life. Is that not right? Every one of us wants riches. Is that not right? Do you want to be rich? Do you want to have honour and pleasure? I do. Do you want peace? Personal peace? These are the things we all desire the most in life. The only way I am going to get this is to do it God's way. I must have God's wisdom and follow the Bible's plan. Let's take a look at life. What makes a difference in people quality of life? What makes people think like they think? Act like they act? Behave like they behave? Do the things that they do?
The difference in the quality of peoples life, whether they are successful or not does not come down to capability. What people can do is often very different from what they do. Very different indeed. It boils down to your will. Willpower is something that I have started to exercising. I am learning how to exercise my will. My willpower will change my life. "I want to change my life. I have come to the point in my life where I want to have mastery of my life".
Millionaires. Let's take a look at them. 80% of the millionaires in the world are self made. 97% of the millionaires never spent a single day in college. These facts tell us that anybody can achieve success. You do not need to be an intellectual, you don't have to be anybody special.
Joseph Walter Brown
A start on the practical principles
The honest ownership of a business that is legal, that does not take advantage of people, not lying, cheating or stealing but a productive business delivering quality products that people need and are going to buy anyway and guaranteeing when they get it. This is business. This is called entrepreneurship. Network marketing is all about building a system, an organization, of people that want a better way of life.
It is great when a couple dream together, identify together, see the future together. You must believe that you are going to succeed in your life endeavour. Say that you are a winner. You are going to win because you are going to do the best with your life. You are not going to do anything less than the best. You are going to go after the best.
What is the best? The best is that which the most people will benefit from. Whatever benefits the most people is what you do with your life. Do it gladly. People will criticize and minimize your enterprise, but do it anyway. Motivate yourself and go do what you need to do. Build an organization of people. Build an organization of people that want to be in it because they want to be free. Build an organization of people that are willing to pay the price. Build a team of people that are willing to learn the best so that they can teach the best.
Anybody can make a decision to be a multi millionaire. Anybody can. Anybody can who can believe this unashamedly can become one, if you learn the process. What is the process?
1. Work five nights a week. (Keep your job until you are free.)
2. Do the nine things that have been identified as good core habits.
3. Use the three powers that have been identified as essential for success.
3.1. The power of unity, the power of teamwork, pulling together, uplifting and encouraging each other.
3.2. The power of the spoken word.
3.2.1. "You are snared by the words of your mouth; you are taken by the words of your mouth." Proverbs 6:2.
3.2.2. "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. Proverbs 18:21.
3.2.3. When we do this we are making the Word of God, the Bible come alive in our life. You will make the Word of God prove itself over and over again. These are principles, spiritual laws that work for all mankind. No matter what your religion, race or nationality take God on His Word.
3.3. The power of submission.
These ideas will be developed as I continue to blog. But this is noteworthy. Jesus sponsored 12 disciples. The Christian faith was built on the principles of networking. That is where we have learned this system from. Do not be dismayed by people who do not understand that helping other people, uplifting people is the way to Godly prosperity. Truthfully they are going nowhere.
I am thrilled that the Bible is the foundation upon which one can build life.

Painting of Mountain
A Portland, OR man inherited a watercolor he believes was painted by a soldier in Rock Island, Illinois during the Civil War.
The artist is John F. Gisch. Along the bottom of the painting we read "Battle of Lookout Mountain, " and "Rock Island Prison, ILL."
Bill says the painting has been passed down in his family from generation to generation. He wants to know more about the artist, John Gisch, and about the painting itself.
History Detectives learns more about the crucial battle over a strategic vantage point, Lookout Mountain and visits the Rock Island Arsenal Museum to find out more about the lives of soldiers imprisoned there.
On November 24th, 1863 at least 13, 000 Confederate and Union soldiers battled at Lookout Mountain in Tennessee for the besieged city of Chattanooga, and the Tennessee River, gateway to the South. View Civil War-era photographs of this Battle of Lookout Mountain.

Emerging Markets Consulting, LLC ("EMC"), its principals, affiliates, representatives,
subcontractors or agents (hereafter referred to as "EMC" or "we" or "us")
prepare and/or assist others in preparing and publishing oral and written information on selected
companies (the "Profiled Company" ) and their securities (the "Securities") in
various contexts,
including but not limited to corporate and business profiles, alerts, summaries,
reports, and
press releases (hereafter referred to as the "Information") through various methods, including
but not limited to: (a)
double opt-in spam compliant emails; (c) mail and courier; (d) EMC's
website's at profiling the Profiled Company and otherwise through the worldwide web.
In certain cases, we are merely a distributor of such publications, i.e. a Profiled Company's press
release, in which case, as in all other situations, EMC conducts no review of said publications received
from any party such as an investor relations firm that directly contracts with a Profiled Company or a
third party shareholder.
We do not conduct any due diligence whatsoever for any of our publications,
whether we act only as a distributor pursuant to an agreement with another publisher or investor
relations firm or directly contract with the Profiled Company or third party shareholder; rather,
we rely upon the information of the Profiled Company we receive from the Profiled Company or other
investor relations firm or third party shareholder, which similarly may not conduct any due diligence
upon the Information.
The Recipients should be especially cautious about any revenue predictions, projected revenues, revenue expectations or any revenue estimates whatsoever (the "Revenue Projections" because: (a) we conduct no due diligence whatsoever on whether the Revenue Projections have a foundational basis and such information should be accepted by us on an "as is" basis; (b) the Revenue Projections may not be in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principals or SEC guidelines for projections; (c) the Revenue Projections may not contain required assumptions upon which they are based or the assumptions lack a foundational basis for making such Revenue Projections, i.e. based upon a projected agreement with a third party or an actual agreement with a third party, which in of itself may lack or have any foundational basis; (d) we caution you to never use Revenue Projections as a basis for considering an investment in the subject securities and to proceed with extreme caution regarding the Revenue Projections; instead, only use all of the Information as a starting point for a thorough investigation of the Profiled Company from publicly available sources and determine whether the Revenue Projections have any foundational basis whatsoever; (e) beware and use extreme caution for any Revenue Projections that fail to include the assumptions upon which they are based; (f) beware and use extreme caution of Revenue Projections that fail to include an evaluation of the support for such assumptions underlying the projections; (g) the Revenue Projections may be inherently unreliable because they are subject to future events wherein a Profiled Company does not update the Financial Projections due to events and circumstances that occur after said projections are released, which may materially and negatively impact upon the Financial Projections; (h) if the Profiled Company is an SEC reporting company the Financial Projections should be in accordance with standards released by the Public Company Accounting Board, the SEC or standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, which often a Profiled Company fails to do; (I) beware of any Financial Projections that fail to include disclosure of the basis of accounting used in preparing the Financial Projections; (j) beware of any Financial Projections that are not prepared or do not indicate whether they are prepared by an independent third party, rather than simply the Profiled Company itself; (k) consult with your registered investment advisor, registered broker, attorney, or financial advisor regarding any such Revenue Projections.
The Recipients should not assume that material changes have not occurred since the publication and/or dissemination of in the Information. Again, each of the Recipients should consult with his or her legal, accounting, tax and financial advisers regarding any investment in the Profiled Company or its Securities and not rely solely upon the Information.
Use of the Information as well as any investment in micro-cap or penny stock securities is subject to the following risks:
Section 17(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 requires that any person that uses the mails to publish,
give publicity to, or circulate any publication or communication that describes a security in
return for consideration received or to be received directly or indirectly from an issuer,
underwriter, or dealer, must fully disclose the type of consideration (i.e. cash, free trading stock,
restricted stock, stock options, stock warrants) and the specific amount of the consideration. In
connection therewith, EMC has received the following compensation and/or has an agreement to receive
in the future certain compensation, as described below.
MagneGas Corporation paid EMC 83,333 restricted shares and 50,000 cashless warrants
exercisable at $1.17 and owes EMC 83,333 shares. MagneGas Corporation has renewed its
contract with EMC and has paid EMC $20,000.
EMC has been paid $30,000 for coverage of UEC from Lake Group Media.

Beyoncé took a quick break from the public eye — but now, she's back.
Not the real Beyoncé, who seems to be lying low since the birth of her twins, Sir Carter and Rumi, who appeared in a photo on her Instagram page last week.
This is about a Beyoncé made of wax that is on display at the Midtown Manhattan location of Madame Tussauds, the wax statue museum known for its celebrity likenesses, with locations around the world.
On Thursday afternoon, the statue was absent from the display floor. But it lived on on social media, where a photograph of the figure drew criticism from far and wide this week.
The problem? Not only did the figure not resemble the chart-topping pop star, critics said, but it also appeared to be too light-skinned. A chorus of comments on social media compared the statue with celebrities like Taylor Swift, Lindsay Lohan and Julia Stiles.
But by Friday afternoon, the Beyoncé statue was in its place on the museum's top floor. Some visitors recognized the famous singer's likeness from across the room and walked over to take selfies. One of them, Amani Wingfield, 34, said she had heard about the Beyoncé controversy on social media.
It appeared to Ms. Wingfield that the updated version was more accurate than the photographs she had seen online. "I think it's closer than the other one," she said. "Most definitely. We walked in and we were like, 'Hey, it's Beyoncé!'"
In an emailed statement on Thursday, Madame Tussauds New York said, regarding the Beyoncé figure: "Our talented team of sculptors take every effort to ensure we accurately colour match all of our wax figures to the celebrity being depicted."
"Lighting within the attraction combined with flash photography may distort and misrepresent the colour of our wax figures, which is something our sculptors are unable to account for at the production stage," the statement said.
It was unclear whether the criticism online led to the statue's brief removal from the display floor. On Thursday, a staff member at the building did not offer a reason for its absence, saying only that the statue was "off the floor until further notice." A museum representative declined to answer questions about why the figure was no longer displayed.
In an emailed statement on Friday, Madame Tussauds New York said: "We love, respect and enjoy a working relationship with Beyoncé. We have adjusted the styling and lighting of her figure and she is on display" at the New York location. The museum did not provide further details.
A spokeswoman for Beyoncé could not be reached for comment.
The figures at Madame Tussauds are typically created by a team of studio artists and usually take three or four months to finish. Statues sometimes go "on tour" to different locations, and at least one other Beyoncé figure has been created for the museum.
Sculpting celebrity likenesses — and meeting the expectations of their fans — is tough work, especially in the age of social media.
A statue of Lucille Ball, for example, in her hometown, Celoron, N.Y., that was unveiled in 2009 was dubbed "Scary Lucy" after criticism of the work erupted on social media in 2015. A year after that, it was replaced with a more lifelike version.
Over the years, other wax debuts at Madame Tussauds have been subjected to the scorn of devotees, including likenesses of Justin Bieber, Ryan Gosling and Taylor Swift.
The Beyoncé wax-statue kerfuffle is far from the first time that representations or images of Beyoncé have come under fire for apparent whitewashing.
Fans of the singer have called out organizations including L'Oreal, the French cosmetics company, and WikiHow, the how-to website, for using images in which Beyoncé appears more light-skinned.

Without using hot water or detergent, LaundryPure puts the technology of nature to work in the laundry room at home. Based on processes used for over a decade in hospitals, hotels, and Laundromats, cold water is infused with oxygen, peroxides, and other gases to bubble and lift dirt and grime from cloth fibers, leaving towels softer and fluffier, and clothes brighter and cleaner.
Plus, every load helps save energy and money. Reducing or eliminating detergent means less residue and abrasives to weigh down and wear out fabrics, and of course, less detergent to buy. Washing in cold water reduces the weekly demand on the household water heater and the energy bill.
So how does it work? LaundryPure incorporates the power of our revolutionary, exclusive ActivePure Technology with the cleaning action of activated oxygen to lift dirt and grime away from the fibers of fabric and prevent the growth of odor–causing bacteria. It easily installs on either front load or top load residential washers. LaundryPure is an amazingly effective cold water laundry system for residential use.
Laundry Pure
- Eliminates the need for detergent* – Oxygen, peroxides, and other gases bubble into clothing to lift dirt and odors. An all–natural pretreater may be used for tough stains.
- Prevent odor–causing bacteria without bleach – LaundryPure combines the power of our revolutionary, exclusive ActivePure Technology, Certified Space Technology, with the cleaning action of activated oxygen to lift dirt and grime away from the fibers of fabric and prevent the growth of odor–causing bacteria.
- Help eliminate allergic reactions due to detergent residue – LaundryPure also helps eliminate the itching and redness caused by allergies due to detergents embedded in clothing.
- Get towels softer and fluffier and help clothes last longer – Build–up on towels, linens, and your clothes can weigh them down. Over time, LaundryPure lifts old detergents out of fibers, restoring their natural softness.
- Make whites whiter and colors brighter – LaundryPure keeps clothes looking their best with the cleansing power of oxygen.
- Protects your home – fail–safe leak protection circuit will shut off incoming water to the unit. A buzzer will sound and the display will turn red to notify you of any problems.
- Designed with you in mind – The new model is designed smaller for easier installation and requires no maintenance to operate at peak performance. Status lights on the front of the unit glow blue when operating normally.
- Friendly to people, the planet and your pocketbook – LaundryPure eliminates the need for hot water cycles. The unit itself is RoHS compliant and uses 98% less energy than previous models. This means less energy, less pollution, and more money in your pocketbook.
- Maintenance Free – LaundryPure requires no maintenance.
WHAT IS COVERED BY THIS WARRANTYWe warrant the LaundryPure® to the Customer, subject to theconditions below, against defects in workmanship or material,provided that the products are returned to a service locationwithin three (3) year from the date of purchase.

Also the HD collection is listed for xbox 360 aswell now.
I think I like the design of that statue a little too much.
If the US isn't getting that, I'm actually really tempted to import. Just kind of depends on price. Or I might just try to get the statue itself second-hand on ebay.

There is one drawback to living in a sunny country and that is how expensive it is to keep air conditioners running. People who live in cooler climates, or even in countries that have a chilly winter, cannot understand how necessary air conditioning is to places that have year-long heat and sun.
Saudi Arabia Looking to Use the Sun to Cool Things Down
The areas inside Saudi Arabia are some of the hottest places on earth. It has been fortunate for the country, thus far, to also have an abundant supply of fossil fuels with which to keep air coolers running.
All this is about to change because Saudi Arabia is looking into using their almost continual daily sunshine as a power source instead of the fossil fuels they have in such large supply. Other regions, besides Saudi Arabia, are looking into the use of solar energy for district cooling as well.
Water Heated by Solar Power
The technology for heating water in geysers using solar power has been around for a while now. So, what is stopping the wider spread of solar heat to provide cooling?
Solar air conditioners are already popular installations in countries where the sun is in plentiful supply and interior temperatures reach unacceptably uncomfortable levels. We are talking about temperatures that cannot be lowered by the use of an indoor electric fan.
Keeping the inside of buildings at a temperature where the occupants can comfortably work and live is a constant drain on resources. In the past, countries where the sun causes heat to build up to a peak during the day have only had recourse to shutting down between the hours of noon through to early evening. This tradition is still practiced in the southern parts of Europe and South America.
But having a siesta every day is not an option in this modern day and age. In the city of Dubai, the construction industry is regulated so that workers are not active between the hours of 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. on the outside of buildings being constructed.
Widespread Solar Powered Air Conditioning
How to best supply air conditioning to a building is by collecting the solar power in devices called parabolic trough collectors. It works in two stages: First, an absorption chiller will be driven by a water heated from solar energy. The water in the chiller is cooled to 5 degrees and this is then used to provide the district cooling.
During peak periods, additional energy will have to be used in the beginning of this technology implementation. The plan is, however, to begin constructing buildings with the absorption chillers already in place and these buildings will be completely self-reliant in providing themselves with adequate cooling in the summer months.
The goal is eventually for entire districts to be built with this technology. Plans are already in production to begin construction in communities around Riyadh using this air cooling technique. The feasibility of this form of solar powered air conditioning has been proven and will soon spread to larger parts of the world.

RIP Anam Tanoli: Worse than being a woman in Pakistan is being a victim of depression and bullying
"Be grateful for what you have."
"Always look at people who are less fortunate than you."
"If you believed in God, you wouldn't feel hopeless. You need to pray more – it's the devil making you depressed and miserable."
"It's all in your head."
"Stop being cynical, be positive."
"Stop overthinking."
"Stop overreacting."
And here is the worst one,
"Stop pretending you have mental health issues to gain sympathy and attention!"
If you have ever had anxiety, depression, stress or any other mental health issues, I bet your Pakistani family, friends, relatives, colleagues, neighbours, or even complete strangers would have used at least one of the aforementioned phrases after becoming aware of your condition. Very rarely will you find individuals who have suffered from a mental health condition and received the support they needed, without anyone dismissing or underrating their symptoms.
People suffer, and they often suffer alone. It is extremely difficult to open up about your mental illness, especially in Pakistan, only to be told,
"Pagal hai."
(They're crazy)
Unfortunately, people suffering from mental health issues are made to believe no one understands them. It's a dark place to be. So dark, in fact, that sometimes to some people it might seem like the only way out is taking their life and ending their torment. According to the latest available data by the World Health Organisation (WHO), the annual rate of suicide in Pakistan is 2.9 per 100,000 people. Professor Murad Moosa Khan, President of the International Association for Suicide Prevention, estimates that between 130,000 to 300,000 people are at risk of attempting suicide in Pakistan.
With such high numbers and the stigma surrounding mental illness in our society, it isn't surprising that someone with a seemingly perfect life would attempt to end their own life. The recent case of Anam Tanoli's suicide is yet another reminder of how people can put on a facade and appear strong, only to be suffering in silence. We are yet to find out the details of the circumstances of her suicide, but thus far it has been revealed she was a victim of online bullying and trolling.
Anam Tanoli didn't commit suicide, it was a murder, we as a society killed her. I'm sorry Anam Tanoli but we couldn't save you from these social media bullies, may your soul rest in peace.— شاہ زیب خان (@shzbkhn) September 2, 2018
Anam Tanoli is gone. Another case of depression goes unnoticed. Another girl gets dragged through hell for her choice of profession. Another girl whom society killed, but she isn't worth remembering or praying for because she wasn't apparently pious. #AnamTanoli pic.twitter.com/J8jAIF5wP3— Komal Salman (@komallsalman) September 2, 2018
The heart-wrenching case of 13-year-old Megan Meier, who committed suicide after cyber bullying, still haunts our memories. A study published by the Journal of Medical Internet Research found that cyber bullying raises the risk of self-harm or suicidal behaviour 2.3 times, revealing just how serious the issue has become.
This is unsurprising; after all, trolls are relentless on social media platforms. I have been targeted several times on Twitter for merely speaking my mind in the blogs I write. For some reason, people find it easier to harass and bully a complete stranger, instead of reading the entire piece and arguing logically in a civil manner. After receiving a lot of vitriol on my initial blogs, I decided to ignore the comments section altogether, only to find the bullies shifting platforms and finding me on Twitter to harass me.

This is a picture of me from when I was going through turmoil not very long ago. It happens to the best of us. Mental health is just as important as physical health, and we all hit points in our lives sometimes when all seems to be falling out of our control. Dear Anam, I'm sorry you had to give up. I'm sorry I didn't understand the intensity of how much you were hurting. I know you were trying your best to be positive and you were a champ. I was super proud of how far you had come in the 9 years I had known you and the person you had grown to become. I swear you had the strength to keep fighting back, staying strong, and standing tall. But you just needed to hear more of that from the people around you, a little more often. I'm so sorry.. I know how it feels when you hit a point so low that it makes you feel like giving up. We all know that feeling. Every single person is fighting their own battle from behind the face we put up for society to make it look like all is under control. Fortunately or unfortunately, with the growth of social media, random people's uncalled-for opinions and hate speech make their way to us. Now more than ever, we need to learn to love and value ourselves, and KNOW our own selves and our own worth, so that peoples opinions of us don't get to us and impact our perception of ourselves. For the trolls: Let people be. Give them the right to be human sometimes. Give them the liberty to make those occasional mistakes. Because without that, no one can ever learn or grow. Reflect and focus your energies on fixing and working on yourself more than scrutinizing, judging and putting others down. Let's please all shun bullying and hate speech. When you see it happening to someone, please stand up for them and make it stop. Build each other up, don't be a bystander watching someone being tormented. #BullyingIsNeverOkay
Over the past several years, I have developed a thick skin, but there are still times when unnecessary remarks and jibes get under my skin. Unsolicited advice and commentary on how one should lead their life can be especially annoying, demoralising and simply abhorrent. When I was younger, I didn't have the resilience I have now, and this makes me worry over how awful it must be for teens and youth these days, especially if they are vulnerable and happen to be in the public eye.
A talented woman who was only 26-years-old, Anam was hurting, and strangers on the internet – who didn't know her, and were unaware of her story, her struggles, her dreams, her responsibilities and her capabilities – decided to hurt her even more. Just because she was a model and thus a public figure, the public thought they owned her life and had the right to take it away. Even after her tragic death, some individuals on Twitter aren't refraining from targeting her and her decision to end her life. Not only do we lack empathy as a society, we are also great at passing the buck.
Incredibly sad to see a young girl of 26 who had so much to live for end her life. Mental health issues and depression are real and fame has its own set of pressures. May she rest in peace.https://t.co/iYhn75YHkM— Fifi Haroon (@fifiharoon) September 2, 2018
Anam Tanoli's last video message.— Mehr Tarar (@MehrTarar) September 3, 2018
The enormity of this tragedy is mind-numbing. A beautiful young woman takes her life, and no one knew she had reached a point of absolute despair and darkness.
It is painful as hell.
Rest in peace, beautiful Anamhttps://t.co/Iv24ZVmkea
This is not an isolated case. Go to literally any female celebrity's Instagram account, and you will see venom being spewed in the comments section. From someone's appearance to their personal relationships and their career choices, unproductive keyboard warriors will criticise anything and everything. They will assassinate your character, mock your appearance, call you names, verbally attack your family, and even use religion to insult you if you are a public figure in Pakistan. The vitriol, after all, is always worse if you are a woman.
You know what else is worse if you are a woman in Pakistan? Suffering from a mental health condition. Your symptoms will often be dismissed as 'your weakness'. If you display any signs of distress or anger, you will be labelled a rebel. "She is probably PMS'ing", people will casually remark.
According to a study by The Burden of Mental Disorders in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, women in Pakistan lost nearly 1.2 million life years (adjusted for disability) to depression in 2013, compared to men who lost around 495,000. Last year alone, 550 women were treated at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) for attempted suicide. You can imagine how high the numbers must be nationally.
As a society, we need to begin by eliminating the stigma around mental health, develop compassion for others, and train our brains to walk in other people's shoes. We all need to come off our high horse and accept that none of us are perfect. Instead of dehumanising those who are suffering, we need to come to terms with the fact that mental health issues are health issues, are real issues. There isn't an on/off switch in our brains we can flick to make things hunky-dory again.
We desperately need more mental health institutes, and yes, a 24/7 helpline would be brilliant as well, but more than anything else, the need of the hour is to find empathy within our hearts.

The connections between guitarists Kurt Rosenwinkel and Pedro Martins is the stuff of movie scripts. Growing up in Brazil, Martins studied Rosenwinkel' s recordings. A chance meeting with his idol shortly thereafter pushed Pedro to continue his jazz studies. In 2015, Martins participated in the Socar Guitar Competition at the 49th Montreux Jazz Festival which was judged by – Kurt Rosenwinkel. Winning the top prize, the two promised to stay in touch. When Rosenwinkel began his Brazilia flavored project Caipi several years later, Pedro submitted an early demo of a song he wrote. That tune ended up on the album, as did Martins, who became a featured member of Rosenwinkel' s Caipi band and contributed guitar, keyboards and voice on the 2017 album. Rosenwinkel promptly signed Pedro to his Heartcore label, and this month VOX, Martins' first solo recording is released, produced by and featuring contributions from – Kurt Rosenwinkel.
A winning mix of Brazilia, pop, and jazz, VOX is buoyed by Martins' versatility, playing guitar, piano/synths, bass, drums, percussion, flute and singing. Jazz cred is boosted by an all-star cast of supporting musicians primarily recruited by Rosenwinkel: Brad Mehldau, Chris Potter, Kyle Crane, Federico Heliodoro, Antonio Loureiro, and Oscar Azevedo. The lush production allows the textures and moods of the tunes to shine, and there is much to enjoy on the disc.
Podcast 660 is my conversation with Pedro Martins, including musical selections from VOX, including "Origem" which features Rosenwinkel and Brad Mehldau; "Faces" which features Chris Potter; and "B Side".

A worldwide boom in digital tech — social, mobile, analytics, cloud, IoT — is forcing companies to come up with new approaches to testing.The pressure on developers to deliver high-quality software has never been more intense. New methods can accelerate the process; however, the development is meaningless if quality and testing do not keep pace.Testing is no longer a supporting capability but a driver of strategy and competitive differentiation.Competitive organizations need an adaptive IT model with new practices that encourage accelerated communication, collaboration, integration, measurement, and automation. Whether you label this digital transformation or not, understanding the details of the journey is an essential part of every organization's criteria to becoming a digital enterprise.On June 27, 2017, join IT World Canada CIO Jim Love and guests Julie Gardiner and Jonathon Wright, both of CA Technologies, for "Testing in the Digital World: Digital Assurance." In this webinar, Jim and Julie and Jonathon will explore:Digital transformation concepts as they pertain to testingAn understanding of digital assurance from a process perspectiveHow models are becoming the heart of testingUsing recent case studies, Julie and Jonathon will share best practices and tips for making your testing transformation a success.

Brewers apologise for Famine-themed beer
Two Australian breweries have been forced to apologise after making a St Patrick's Day beer themed on the Famine.
The collaboration between two craft beermakers, Shark Island Brewing Company and Willie the Boatman, sparked a backlash over the name Famine and the Crown and a label depicting a weeping mother and child alongside a coffin ship.
The "caramel chocolate Irish cream ale" was withdrawn before it went on sale after complaints that the branding was insenstive and the companies apologised for the "obvious offence" it has caused.
"When we decided to collaborate on a St Patrick's release we were conscious of not delivering a cliché Irish-themed beer but wished to express something a little more genuine. The inspiration for the beer came from the classic

|Information trustworthiness
credibility of sources
trust propagation framework
automating claim verification
|Modeling trustworthiness of information is a key factor in many decision support systems. Decision makers and citizens are highly influenced these days by information they get from online resources, such as news, online encyclopedias, blogs, forums, and online product reviews. The ease of publishing on the Web, on the other hand, has also allowed nefarious sources to openly express their views and opinions as if they are facts. In this new dynamics, it is important to validate online claims and distinguish fact from fiction. My research tries to address the challenges in modeling trustworthiness of free-text claims. In this dissertation, I present the need for research on trustworthiness of online information and argue for going beyond structured, extraction-centric approaches to unstructured, textual evidence-driven trust modeling. The overall goal is to provide tools and build systems that would help users judge the veracity of claims. My research focuses on modeling the trustworthiness of sources and free-text claims in presence of unstructured, textual evidence found online. It involves studying multiple forms in which claims can be expressed in free text, understanding the contexts in which they are expressed, and developing ways to incorporate this understanding in building robust approaches to verify claims. I have investigated how to aggregate signals supporting a claim based on the quality of evidence and explored the use of community knowledge (from online forums) to enable Web users to judge the credibility of sources and claims. Judging credibility of sources and trustworthiness of information is not absolute. It depends not only on various aspects about what is being claimed, but also on the biases of the sources that express such information and the preferred viewpoints of the users consuming that information. To understand these factors further, I studied how human biases affect the credibility judgment of documents and how to build interfaces that help users acquire knowledge in presence of contradictory evidence in favor of or against the claims. In this dissertation, I summarize these findings and insights and propose an automated claim verification system that helps users validate free-text claims with trustworthy information from multiple sources.

Corpsmembers are nominated by their peers and MHYC staff for this designation.
Kelsey started with MHYC in August 2012 as a Water Conservation Corpsmember. Kelsey has shown incredible growth over her year of service. She has become an exceptional leader while also overcoming significant internal and external challenges. Kelsey also has proved to be an inspiration to her crew and staff by overcoming an unfathomable personal tragedy, losing her father in a sudden accident. However, she continued to work through grief with the same compassion and positivity, motivated by her commitment to personal growth and her desire to provide for her son.
Kelsey has been a profound testament to the will of the human spirit. She is a model and an inspiration for her peers and for the staff that have worked with her. We are happy to have Kelsey return this year with Mile High Youth Corps as an Assistant Crew Leader on the Water Conservation Crew. After her term of service, she plans to use her education awards on college, to learn to become an EMT.
Hope Radford came to Mile High Youth Corps the summer she graduated from high school in 2012 and came back to continue her service during the summer session of 2013 after her first year at the University of Montana where she majors in Resource Conservation. Hope has been nominated as our Corpsmember of the Year for one simple reason, she deserves it. Hope is an incredibly hard worker that leads by example. She consistently volunteers for new tasks and is willing to sacrifice for the good of her team and the community.
Four weeks after the devastating Waldo Canyon Fire was extinguished our Corps was contacted by the National Forest Service Burn Area Emergency Response Team to see if we might have a crew available to begin restoring the beloved Waldo Canyon Trail. Although the Summer of Service term was over, Hope and a handful of others canceled their summer vacations before returning to school and volunteered for the project. Hope has worked on extended wildfire restoration projects in both the Hayman and the Waldo Canyon burn areas.
When asked to reflect on her term of service Hope had this to say,
It is extremely difficult to put into words what Mile High Youth Corps has meant for me. In my years with MHYC, I have grown tremendously as an individual, met some of the most inspirational people in my life, and served my community. MHYC has given me the opportunity to strengthen my body, my teamwork abilities, and my leadership skills. In those many weeks in the back country, I learned so much about myself and about working with others who are very different than me. My crew members and leaders have become some of my closest friends and most influential examples in my life. MHYC has also been an important way for me to contribute to the community. While I have met amazing people and had the time of my life, I have been creating trails and restoring forests so others can do the same.
Congratulations to Kelsey and Hope! You are both truly an inspiration and exemplify the mission of Mile High Youth Corps!

Saudi Intelligence Chief blames bureaucrats for slow implementation of e-governance
Initiative to raise the quality of governmental online services delayed by "bureaucrats who do not want efficiency"
Saudi Chief of Intelligence Prince Muqrin has spoken out about delays to a recent initiative to raise the quality of online governmental services, claiming that the system is not at fault.
Speaking after the formal opening of the second National Conference on E-Health, Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper reported Muqrin as saying: "If there is a failure in the implementation of the e-governance, it is not the system that is responsible but some bureaucrats who do not want efficiency and achievements."
The planned improvements in e-governance are intended to simplify the formalities of government services and minimise the burden of the Kingdom's people. Murqin added that with the implementation of the e-health system and the assigning of numbers to each citizen's health card, healthcare would be sped up and billions of riyals would be saved.
Hussain Al-Jazairi, regional director of the World Health Organization for the Middle East, was also present at the conference. He said that the major problem the region currently faced in merging everyone's electronic health files was the lack of co-operation between countries, and appealed to the related authorities to prepare a relevant organized structure for e-health in each country.

There are reports that a minister is infecting women in the  Full Gospel Church in Atlanta congregation with HIV. Not only is he passing along a deadly disease but he is reportedly married as well which means he is also committing adultery. Since the story hit the media the pastor of the church has decided to speak out to try and separate himself and the congregation from the incident saying that he is not a minister there, but only the husband of his assistant and is not a member. This is what Straightfromthea reports:
The man he is speaking of is Craig Lamar Davis and while the Bishop attempts to separate himself from the chatter, he actually just made it a bit more interesting.
Morton admits that Craig is the husband of his assistant, but he states it's not a Full Gospel problem.
Bishop Paul Sylvester Morton, who heads Full Gospel the church, recently issued a bit of clarification on the matter via the social networking site, twitter.
What do you think about the tweets by Bishop Morton. Do you think he is correct in feeling like this is not a church issue? Do you think he helped the situation, or just made himself look bad now?

Day 27: Your fitness routine.
This one made me laugh. I can honestly say I don't have a fitness routine of any kind.
I'm the kind of person who can't stick with anything for long. I usually give up after trying something once.
I woke up once at 5AM to go running before work. Once. I never tried that again. Mainly because every thing about it was awful. Running; cold; early.
I bought a yoga mat with the aim of doing yoga every evening. Again, I done this once.
I joined a fitness class with my friend, and while I done this for a decent amount of time, I never done it regularly enough for it to make an impact.
I tried going swimming at 6AM before work once. AGAIN, only once.
In January of this year I joined the gym. I'm surprised they let me, they probably get so many people joining in January after their New Years resolution and then quitting like I did. I quit in February. So I didn't last very long. But to be fair this was mainly due to the fact I couldn't afford it. I had just moved out and my rent is quite expensive.
I do want to get fit, I would love to have a great body, but I seriously lack any kind of motivation.
I want to try swimming again as this is something that I do love doing. Maybe at some point I will try again (let's be honest though, who am I trying to kid?).

Complications of asthma
1-minute read
Badly controlled asthma can have an adverse effect on your quality of life. The condition can result in:
- fatigue
- underperformance or absence from work
- inability to exercise, leading to other health problems such as high blood pressure or weight gain
- permanent problems with your lungs
- repeated visits to hospital
- psychological problems including stress, anxiety and depression
- learning problems in children
If you feel that your asthma is seriously affecting your quality of life, contact your doctor. Your personal asthma action plan may need to be reviewed to better control the condition.
In rare cases, asthma can lead to a number of serious respiratory complications, including:
- pneumonia (infection of the lungs)
- a collapse of part or all of the lung
- respiratory failure, where the levels of oxygen in the blood become dangerously low, or the levels of carbon dioxide become dangerously high
- status asthmaticus (severe asthma attacks that do not respond to treatment)
All of these complications can be life-threatening and will need medical treatment.

How to Create an ICO - Part 2 - The Two "W's"
ICO's are storming the world of cryptocurrency, every week there is a new Initial Coin Offering that gives investors the opportunity to become involved in the crypto world. But what if you are startup who wants to create an ICO? Don't worry here at Crowdholding, we have created a step by step guide on how to create your own ICO so you can also immerse yourself in the growing eco-system of cryptocurrencies.
This step by step guide will break down all the parts that are needed for a Initial Coin Offering. Our second part will focus on creating the website and the White Paper. If you haven't read our first part you can click here, as the first part discusses the theory behind an ICO and asks if you need an ICO.
The first "W" - The Website
As with any business nowadays, a website is vital as it allows potential customers / investors to browse your product with the touch of a button wherever they are located in the world. ICO's are no different, a website is the most important communication tool. Potential investors will not invest into an ICO that does not have a website / a poorly designed website.
Therefore it is essential that you have a visually appealing website and it contains all the information that visitors are looking for. ICO websites follow this chronological guideline as listed below.
Site menu - Your website will need to have translations, as ICO's are a global phenomenon, only having English will limit the amount of people you can reach. We suggest that you have Russian and Chinese translations. You also want to have your biggest social media channels so people can follow / get in contact with you. You can also have links to certain parts of your website such as "team" or "documents"
The Homepage - ICO's follow the format or a long landing page with all the information available by scrolling down. You can separate these into other pages, but 99% of ICO pages prefer to have all the information on one page. Before the ICO launch, this section should contain a countdown timer to the ICO launch and a form of subscription for news about the project. After the ICO has launched, the timer is replaced with the "Join ICO" button and a bar with how much you have currently raised. Showing how much you have raised is important, as it shows potential investors that others also are investing into the project.
The Project Section - This section must show detailed information about the project, technology features, current status and development plans / roadmap. This section shows the investors what they are investing in, the benefits to your project and what you plan to do with their investment. We suggest using an array of pictures / infographics rather than large amount of text.
The ICO and the Token - The fourth segment of your website should describe your ICO and your token in detail. The information that is needed in this section can be seen below:-
Here is an example from our website of the ICO section.
The Team Section - Here is where you list all the team members, with photos and links to their LinkedIn profile (if possible) the team is important because it is one of the main factors that investors look into in regards to the validity of the project. Just below this section, add your advisors in a similar fashion.
Documents / legal / social media channels - Lastly there should be links to your documents such as your white paper and smart contract information. Because these are larger, full of text and more in-depth, it is better to have links rather than have these on your main page. There should also be a link that takes you to the terms and agreements in regards to people investing. This is needed from a legal standpoint and should be carefully considered as this will be different for every ICO. Lastly include all your social media links, as people can browse through them and follow your project / get in contact with you through their favourite social media channel.
Additional items that should be considered are:-
Web based chat application - So anyone visiting your website can immediately as you questions. This requires someone to be on the website at all times though, so you will need to structure this.
Website that is adapted to mobile devices - Most people now browse on their mobile devices, make sure your website is responsive to this.
News / blog - A nice way to keep people coming back to your website, although you can have this on a blogging platform instead such as Medium or Blogger or listing articles that have been written about you from media outlets.
Email / sign up page - There needs to be a process for anyone that decides to join your email newsletter list. This will have to include a retrieve password, terms and conditions etc.
Design - On top of having all the relevant information, do not forget to make the website look appealing.
Research - Look around at what other websites are including that is effective.
You can visit our ICO website to see what the completed example looks like by clicking here.
The second "W" - The White Paper
(If you do not know what a white paper is, we suggest you read this article. It is important that you have an understanding of what a White Paper is as it is long and in-depth)
White Papers are a key mechanism in the world of fintech and more importantly in the ICO ecosystem. This document outlines the technical features of the project in quite substantial detail. White Papers are aimed at experts, opinion leaders and professionals that can understand the technical essence of your project. The white paper doesn't heavily focus on marketing in a conventional way and is more of a educational document / manual, so it is very important that you have thought out your concept, project and how it works before trying to write a white paper.
The information provided in the White Paper should be divided into sections. A White Paper must contain the following descriptions:
essence of the project, prospects and roadmap.
relevance of the project and the market it operates on.
Team and advisors.
economics of the project and token.
There are certain guidelines as well such as :-
Most White Papers start with the problem that their project solves, showing stats and figures and infographics to back up the problem. After the current issues, the product description section starts.
A white Paper is structured, linear and clean. It does not need to colourful or contain too many buzzwords. As stated above, this document is for experts rather than the general public and therefore does not need to have slogans or logos as a marketing campaign. Instead of selling your product, think of it more as an educational document explaining what your product does and how it works.
Do research and see what other ICO's are including in their WP. If a section appears in multiple good White Papers consider adding it to yours.
The average length is around 20 pages, the idea is that once a potential investor reads through your whole document they will understand the issue, how your product works, where you are going with your project and how people can benefit from your solution.
If you wish to look at our whitepaper for an example you can click here. Crowdholding is launching our own ICO on the 1st of November, for more information click here or follow us on Facebook or Telegram.

Reward Distribution Rules.
Please read below how the rewarding structure works.
Voters get 35% of the reward
Commenters still receive the majority of 65% of the reward weight, while voters 35%.
You receive only 7 upvotes and must vote what you think are the best answers
You now have a limited amount of upvotes. You won't see the other user votes until the task expires. If you vote the top half comments you will receive a portion of the 35%.
Top 50% upvoted comments get bigger share
Our algorithm gives top 50% upvoted comments more rewards than the bottom 50% comments.
Give me an example with numbers
Top 1/2
Upvoters get 35 % of the reward.
65 % goes to the commentors.
Half of the reward is gained from bottom 1/2.
Bottom 1/2
Upvoters get nothing
1/2 of the reward pool for this segmentis distributed among top 1/2
An example.
There is a task with 1000 Reward.
Let's assume Top 1/2 recevies 70% of all upvotes.
Bottom gets 30 %. But because half of the reward goes to Top 1/2 that makes the final numbers more like Top 1/2 gets 85% (55.25% for commentors, 29,75% for upvoters) and bottom gets 15 % of the final reward.
If there's 100 upvotes:
1 upvote that upvotes a comment in Top is worth around 12 Yups (circa 8 goes to commentor, 4 goes to upvoter)
1 upvote that upvotes a comment in Bottom is worth 5 (All goes to commentor).
Reminder about our Moderation
If you upvote a comment that's reported as Spam or comment that should not be rewarded (eg. "Good job" comments) you will lose your right to be rewarded for this task.
We hope you like this new system and it brings you lots of fruitful discussions and reward you fairly.
Do you still have questions? Read more detailed explanation at our helpdesk
All the best,
Your Crowdholding Team
