A look at the work of the preacher. This is the first sermon I preach in a new congregation. I received the original outline from Wayne Burger at the Bear Valley Bible Institute in Denver and modified it over the years.
Change is something new and exciting. Not only that, it can be scary because when things change there is a certain unknown element we face. What will change bring? Will it be for the good or bad? Will this work? Did I make the right decision? All of these questions and thoughts are ...read more

Vol. 46, no. 6 (June 1996), p. 23-31
How far is Thomas Cranmer the father of the Church of England as we know it today? Would he have approved of his prose being enshrined in the quintessentially 'Anglican' tradition of Evensong? Diarmaid MacCulloch, in a major new work, reflects on the 'after-life' of Henry VIII's archbishop, burnt at the stake as a Protestant martyr under Mary

This column is devoted to girls who know what's good for them, who sometimes enjoy being vain and buy more makeup than they will ever need. I wrote this for us.
There are days where I get really bored, so I decide to go shopping. I also shop when I'm in a bad mood. I've also gone shopping when I'm in a really good mood.
But there's one type of shopping in particular that I hate to love – shopping for makeup.
Going to makeup stores like Sephora or Ulta is different. I don't even know how to use half of the things they sell.
And I'm not usually inclined to buy makeup brushes that look like dental tools and cost more than the security deposit on my house.
No thanks.
The drugstore makeup is where the real problem lies.
It's affordable and there's a ton of it. Everywhere.
Grocery stores. CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid. And the mother of all drugstore makeup shopping – Target.
Like I said, I shop all the time. But the worst time to shop is when I have a lot of time on my hands, which is often.
I'll spend hours in the four aisles designated for beauty and cosmetics.
But only buy waterproof. You don't want to be out on a Saturday night without the waterproof mascara for three reasons – boys, college and beer.
One thing I can't stand, though, is when people make fun of girls for wearing makeup.
"Girls that wear makeup are lying to us, that's not what they actually look like."
Shut up. Yes it is.
I don't believe that girls should only feel secure when they wear makeup. Of course I want everyone to feel comfortable in their own skin with our without something covering up a zit.
But the key word here is "with." If makeup is what gives someone an extra boost in the morning, then that's that and nobody should have anything to say about it.
And no, just because we like makeup does not make us vain.
We do go overboard sometimes, especially when we pick it out. I have never taken a guy makeup shopping with me before – and for good reason.
It's embarrassing. I get so indecisive and excited, yet nervous about breaking the bank all at the same time.
It's a really anxious experience.
I think the most ridiculous aspect of shopping for makeup is the stream of lies girls tell themselves when they're trying to justify buying this stuff.
I can see myself needing this at some point. I should get that.
That looks weird, I want it.
Bouncy blush? Absolutely.
This matches my skin tone perfectly, they made this for me.
That's such a good deal.
I am losing money if I don't buy this.
I think I might literally need this.
I don't know about you, but I want to get the "London Look." I want it.
Plus, it's way easier to pick up an eyeliner at CVS than actually going to England. So I'm saving money in the end.
Maybe not every girl is like me in this regard, but I know I can be semi-crazed when it comes to shopping.
The bottom line is to say no to drugs.
Unless it's discounted mascara at Target – because that's a steal.
I believe that every girl should indulge in makeup, sometimes. Especially if it makes you happy and makes you feel good about yourself.
And never let anyone tell you otherwise.

Thoroughly research careers in your chosen area and be realistic about what you can expect. For example, don't expect to clock off at 5pm if you want to design graphic content or photograph fashion shoots.
The Creative sector is notorious for long, unsociable hours, skipped lunch breaks and early starts. Be realistic and prepared to travel or work late to deadlines if that's what your profession demands.

Best Budget Soundbar 2017 "Most Trendy Soundbar"
Your soundbar will not just enhance your audio experience, it is also going to enhance the wow factor of your living room. Soundbar of very good quality can endure for many decades. To summarize, the optimal/optimally soundbar is going to be the one that matches YOUR requirements and might not be exactly like someone elses! Put simply, one particular soundbar and you're good. It isn't important whether we've got a soundbar, a complete set of Dolby 5.1 speakers, or merely the sound made by the TV set, there's a lot that could be accomplished just by preparing the living room correctly, and with minimal if any expenditure.
You'll know whether the speakers can manage the lows in addition to the treble with the vocals. In the event the speakers cannot create the bass, you will know and hear if it's straining. These speakers aren't harsh in the slightest. Most speakers will not have the ability to take care of this. They form an important part of any entertainment system, and are responsible for delivering realistic sounds that makes the overall experience so life-like. Bookshelf speakers are among them and are intended to be put on a raised surface. They offer great sound quality and can be used for a variety of applications, whether on their own, or as part of a home theater setup.
With a subwoofer can be useful and bad. Integrating the subwoofer also requires some moment, luckily, with both bought at the exact same moment, they'd break-in together. If there's no subwoofer, be sure that the model you're buying has the ability to play back bass along with mid and high range audio. Unlike the solo, there's an external subwoofer, although it's wireless, so you may create a similar experience. These headphones are of high quality and cut back outside noise along with give you an enjoyable listening experience. It must be prominent with good headset. Cell phone headset carries enough importance for a telephone accessory.
Best Soundbar Under 200 Dollars -
If you like the sound of high quality music, then you are going to adore the sound of Bose in your residence or office. This fashion in which you may acquire fantastic sound in stereo. Although at a fundamental level sound bars are amazingly straightforward to setup, there are a couple standard tips everyone can follow to vastly enhance the sound and operation of their compact audio system. Finding the ideal budget turntable may be a tricky thing, but it's rewarding if you find yourself with a big budget sound for not lots of money.
Now anyone may have a good surround setup without having to spend big bucks. A normal DJ setup consists of a mixer, two turntables and lots of speakers. Purchasing an excellent audio setup takes appreciable research and investment. The stereo speaker setup doesn't need much wiring and provides you a simple way to put the speakers. A good solution is to bring a 2.1 stereo speaker setup to the TV as a way to receive a great sound output.
There are many things to take into account when picking a TV stand. Assembling a TV stand does not have to be difficult or it may be quite difficult based on the design. A corner TV stand may be a great solution.
For any telephone user, it is never enough to purchase a phone. Though a number of the phones include inbuilt memory, it's not ever enough for the music buffs. In addition, the telephone or device you're using can be utilised to control the volume and choice of music on the speakers.

Back in 2014, we started the month at our permanent home in Florida but in mid-month returned to our second home, a condo in Illinois. A little after sunrise on September 1, the winds were calm and the skies fair over the lake in our local wetlands.
Later in the morning we stopped by the neighborhood Bald Eagle nest and found that both adults were at the nest and bringing in sticks to renovate it. Usually this activity begins later in the month or in early October. The female, whom the eagle watchers had named "Joy," perched atop a Melaleuca snag and spread her wings (click on photo for more and larger views):
This is the male, Pride (no, he is not really that close to the tree!):
Joy, whom we had been following for six years, was known to have produced at least 13 eaglets (11 of which survived to fly freely). Sadly, she would disappear at the end of October. We were never sure of her fate.
Pride was left without a partner. In early December a new and younger female appeared at the nest. Courtship and mating followed, but if "Jewel" deposited any eggs she never sat on the nest. For the first time since 2007 the entire breeding season would pass without any new eaglets.
Two days later I caught a much smaller bird in the act of spreading his wings, a Prairie Warbler:
On September 5 a small flock of White Ibises roosted on a neighbor's fence:
A Black Vulture posed for a portrait. Maybe he heard me say that he is not so ugly after all!
On September 15, just before we were to depart for Illinois, migrating Ovenbirds passed through:
On the same day, parting shots at a pair of Florida butterflies, a male Julia longwing...
...and a White Peacock:
The Chicago skyline on the approach to Midway Airport on September 17:
In Illinois, the air was crisp and the light a bit different. Though not a "field guide" illustration of the species, I liked the way this Nashville Warbler fit the frame:
In a classic pose, a White-breasted Nuthatch took a different view of the world:
In a small marsh not far from our condo, I enjoyed the natural sepia tones of a Swamp Sparrow...
..and a Marsh Wren, ...
...but a Nelson's Sparrow was more elusive:
On the last day of September, the temperature had dropped 20 degrees. Hundreds of American Robins seemed to appear out of nowhere. Some bathed in a small stream:
On the way home we stopped by a Bald Eagle nest only a mile away from our Illinois condo. As was the case with the one near our Florida home, it was the first in the county, having been established on the grounds of a residential boys' school only about 4 years previously.
The nest was built in a dying pine tree the middle of a sport stadium parking lot. I fear that the tree will need to be removed, as now, three years later, it is entirely dead and may present a hazard to public safety:
This cameo portrait was captured from a distance:
Agramonte, our daughter's Tibetan Mastiff, kept an eye on me as I barbecued steaks on their back deck:
An old barnyard:
I prepared this post in advance as the ferocious Hurricane Irma appeared to be on a collision course with south Florida. We shuttered our home and evacuated on short notice. Right now (September 6) Mary Lou and I are seeking refuge three time zones away in mile-high Albuquerque, New Mexico.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, March 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The Plantation Capital Group and Asia Plantation Capital are on the move. A month after the Group's strategic relocation to its global headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, Asia Plantation Capital has decided to reposition its regional HQ to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Located in downtown KL, Asia Plantation Capital has taken up offices at the GTower, nestled at the intersection of Jalan Tun Razak and Jalan Ampang in Kuala Lumpur's prime business district. The GTower is set to become one of the landmark buildings in Malaysia's capital city, and is the first and only corporate office to be rated 'Grade A++' for its commercial space. It has also become Malaysia's first Green building (BCA Gold Greenmark) sharing the core values of renewability and sustainability that lie at the heart of the Asia Plantation Capital, and indeed the Group's ethos.
With the region's largest purpose-built agarwood factory, and acres of newly-acquired plantations in Malaysia, the move is fuelled by the expansion of the company and is seen as an opportunity to further strengthen Asia Plantation Capital's presence in Southeast Asia. In addition, as part of the company's successful vertically integrated business model, the office will serve as the administration and marketing hub in Asia for all the end products the company and its partners produce. These range from the signature, 100% pure, natural Oud oil, to essential oils and bakhoor (the Arabic name given to wood chips soaked in fragrant oils), and on to agarwood chips, incense and other timber products including bamboo and teak.
Steve Watts, Asia Plantations Capital's Chief Executive Officer, Asia Pacific, said, "This is more than a mere change of address and a move of offices. The decision has been made as part of the company's expansion plans, and will have a positive effect not only in the region, but also globally. In much the same manner in which we have streamlined our agarwood processes, this is another step towards integrating the Group. With offices in Europe, Africa and America," he continued, "this move will allow us to immerse ourselves in an industry that is of such importance to the world, and brings us closer to fulfilling our mission of 'leading the way in sustainable plantation management'."
"It has been a year since our state of the art agarwood processing factory has been fully operational. To date, we have had a large number of visitors and/or clients paying visits, some of whom are the most influential investment and fund managers in the world. With close proximity to the factory in Johor Bahru, Malaysia," Watts concluded, "these trips can be carried out in a more efficient and sustainable manner. And we mustn't forget another key advantage that will be appreciated by our customers and stakeholders alike, which is the lower operating costs that Malaysia provides, which help us in improving our bottom line."
The office was officially launched by Asia Plantation Capital's Board of Director, Yang Amat Mulia Tunku Naquiyuddin on 24th March 2016.
Asia Plantation Capital was officially established in 2008 (although it had been operating privately since 2002), and the Plantation Capital Group has more than 2,000 members of staff worldwide. With 126 plantations across the globe, the company has plans to expand further into other forestry products such as bamboo and teak in the very near future.

Mahmut Gareev , Anatoly Kulikov , Dmitry Yazov
Military-Industrial Courier
Published in issue number 49 (415) for December 14, 2011
"MIC" completes the publication of the reports and statements made by military leaders held at Club Russian scientific-practical conference "On the 150th anniversary of the military reform Lopatkin Milutin and its significance for the modern military building."
No one and nothing need to idealize
Including Milutin and military reforms – under Alexander II and the current
I recall that in the second half of the XIX century there were massive armies of millions. They were needed in the war, but in peacetime, no State could not contain them. Required mobilization component that would complement the staff of the armies during the war. And then there was a need in the military districts that deal with this matter.
Meanwhile, at the time not just military districts created. Changed the Governor, they Tsar Alexander II the relevant decrees, manifestos put a number of duties to prepare for the defense of territory, population and so on. And the conclusion is that reform can not be undertaken in isolation but the army or navy. Reforms must be implemented on a national scale and in all, saying today's language, security agencies, which are involved in the defense of the country. Isolation from each other do not.
What were the intent, purpose and significance of the reform Milutin, is detailed in the reports were presented, I will not repeat. But recognizing the fact that it was possible to realize Lopatkin, noting the positive aspects made it, do not fall into euphoria. I think that just for the sake of truth and scientific credibility of what we want to examine critically the results of the reform of the Russian army in 1860-1870's.
Of course, the past, but do not forget how to end the Russian-Japanese War and who was victorious. But this in fact was the first serious test of Russia's military organization after an armed confrontation with Turkey in 1877-1878, respectively. Why it happened, why our country is defeated? Of course, the reason for it not only remains unfinished Milyutinskaya reform. Reform, one has to conduct a national scale, plus they can be successful, if put into practice with the support of the people, the majority of society. If you do not have this support, no reform can be.
No need to idealize. And Milutin should not be an exception. Here, for instance, wrote of him known military historian Anton Kersnovskaya "Disciple private civil guesthouse and Moscow University, he, with military intelligence, the military had no soul, the heart of the military, drill stems. Telling them of the Russian army noncombatant way not brought her happiness."
Ideal can not get service with a few exceptions no one. But still, the whole problem of reform at all times was that broke what was done in the upper echelon and below. Referring to the biography Milutin he graduated, he went to an artillery brigade, was the primary military rank "Ensign", then served in the General Staff, the corps headquarters, the chief of the General Staff of the Caucasian troops. But he did not command any company, or battalion or regiment.
In this respect there is a similarity with the biography of Marshal Ogarkov. I have great respect for him, it was a talented man, but he had the same trouble as in Milutin, because he's in the upper echelon are well understood, but did not know the life of troops below. However, if you are not a company or a battalion or regiment did not command, and it is impossible to know. Of course, these gaps can occur in the career military commander, but then you have to keep people from carrying troops to complement you, not to appoint someone who was too far away from them, but from the people of the Decembrists.
Recently created a team of permanent readiness. Immediately gave the order – on Saturday and Sunday are forced to dismiss all that they differed in their homes. But that's somewhere in Blagoveshchensk suddenly attacked the Chinese, on Saturday and Sunday you will not find anybody. I'm not saying I do not need a humanization of military service, to the extent necessary and to the extent possible, this should be done. But then you have to in the regulations as the Americans, set the percentage to be on duty. By the way, Americans are paying money to officers and sergeants, who at the weekend to continue in service.
That is, the decisions taken at the top themselves may be right, but they lose their value if not backed up by deeds of life in the lower tier.
There was a change in the logistics, outsourcing is implemented. However, it is obvious that no civilians will serve the troops if war breaks out. They say: "We have to clothe epaulets." How are you going to wear? Pass laws that are on the first day of the war encouraged. But if these solutions are not supported by the top of rules, regulations and laws that relate to the citizen, his military service, this all can not be enforced.
Mahmut Gareev , army general, president of the Academy of Military Sciences
It's time to turn to the Supreme Commander
Because the Defense objection into account no one takes
No one denied Lenin when he said: 'War were half-isolated from the people caste. Wars are now the nations. " Interestingly, as in Russia today can create an army of all the people to defend the country?
Milutin when divided Russia into military districts, meant above all war, so as to form a strong army in case of war. In the time Milutin was war in the Caucasus, Central Asia, and Turkey fought everywhere you had to create the command. Was already chief – himself emperor. Now we have a chief, but no army. Division abolished, dismantled shelves, what's left? Battalions and brigades. And then what? That, from one brigade will be the army?
And how the mobilization work? Imagine, now on our Far East together with Yakutia and Transbaikal population of about eight million people. Is it possible for a total / partial mobilization to manage the resources that are in the Far East? Probably not. It is necessary to receive military service and staffing from other regions. In particular, from Siberia. How will this happen?
Four military regions for a large country, of course, is not enough. I think this is a mistake.
The second point about education. Schools should command the one who understands something about this business. And now we hear that the Department of Defense? "Academy – is a myth, it's stupid, do not need the Academy." Like, was the primary officer military education courses and then – and all.
However, each academy is not only engaged in training students, she worked to develop the theory, regulations and operations. Who developed a deep operation? Academy of the General Staff. Who's new regulations developed in the war? Academy. Who BUP-42 after Stalingrad operation developed? Frunze Academy and other academies. It can not be now one academy, which is only concerned with one question. Who, for example, will teach commanders pilots coordinated operations with ground forces, with other species and genera of the Armed Forces? How can you eliminate the academy? And what kind of courses will be then – artillery, engineers, tank? But who will organize the interaction?
All our objections into account no one took. Very bad and that everything that has been said here, do not hear the leaders of the Ministry of Defence. No, unfortunately, at the conference's representatives. I think also that we will do just empty talk, if we do not invite to his deputies to the State Duma.
Milutin survived five emperors – born under Alexander I, he served under Nicholas I and Alexander II, at the beginning of the reign of Alexander III resigned, which remained until his death of Nicholas II. And he was able to work out a system of national defense, national defense, that it is almost satisfied all rulers. And we are starting only with the post-war period, how many of these had reorganizations and reforms as cuts, how many sets, and again cuts.
Milutin at the regiment may have been five or six military specialties. Now the division about a thousand. Who and where will train soldiers, possession? On these courses? A lot of unknown today in the organization of the army. I think that our conversation here, if someone adds all carefully and report the Minister of Defense, may be, and will be of any use. And best of all, perhaps, summarize and report to the president – the commander in chief.
Dmitry Yazov , Marshal
Why are we beating the alarm?
Closing address by the President of the Russian Federation of the club captains
I think that the issue that we discussed exhaustively covered and the purpose of the conference was still achieved. We first must have a scientifically examined the role of the Minister of War Lopatkin Milutin and his conducting of military reform, which was subsequently and is of great importance today, and confirmed speakers.
Of course, it is obvious that this was an outstanding, outstanding people. He was able to in-depth analysis to understand not only what is needed military reform, but that it should be based on a profound reform of the entire state power structure, including the abolition of serfdom.
I would also note that not present Russia's Defense Ministry has conceived the ongoing transformation. For example, Anatoly Kvashnin, while serving as chief of staff, is also planning to abolish the district, creating a strategic direction. What is the direction? Point A to point B? This is not the territory. In fact, even today, many do not understand, including the top of the military district – a military-administrative division of the country. And in this area are the formations and units of the Armed Forces and the Internal Troops, Border Guards, Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Emergency Situations. Now, we insist on it, I'm on the Security Council, Boris Yeltsin said that we should have a common graduation, one division of the military districts. There should be no border military districts, the Interior Troops. There must be one, for example, the North Caucasus Military District. And then – the border troops of the North Caucasus Military District, Internal troops of the North Caucasus Military District, the Armed Forces of the North Caucasus Military District. Because the military district – the main union at war time and in its territory if hostilities are, the whole fullness of administrative power to the commander of the military district. Here it should be based.
I'm not talking about the mobilization component. The economy is not ready for this, and the availability of trained human resources mobilization is already in question. Who is engaged in this business? At a meeting with the chief of the General Staff of two years ago Dmitry Yazov asked: "And who fixed the strength of the Armed Forces in a million people? '. And he replied: "And we and demographics do not allow to have more." Yes, demographics – a very important factor, but not the principal. The main factor – assessment of the enemy, threat assessment. What it will be, what will be the conflict? This question is no one today can answer. What is the maximum size of the Armed Forces in time of war? On this question, again no one can not answer. That's the trouble. And would love to be heard.
We are with you taught in academies and schools, taking decisions based on the situation from the situation that prevailed at this minute. That's how we would today not abused reform of the Armed Forces, what happened has happened. Sounded so, in my opinion, very right offer – perfect for a thorough analysis of reform that can be based on it had something to offer. By the way, I think it has something to offer and of the speeches at the conference. We did.
And the last. This panel did not want to offend anyone. They just become more aware than anyone else, understand what is happening and what can happen. The price for the mistakes in military construction is very high, that's the trouble. That this price was not high, so as not to pay for the mistakes a lot of blood, of course we should be alarmed.

This giant cow welcomes visitors to the recent 19th Annual Boston Vegetarian Society's (BVS) Food Festival held at the Reggie Lewis Track and Athletic Center in Roxbury Crossing. The BVS, founded in 1986, exists to help people, animals, and the environment by promoting the vegetarian way of life.
I have attended this free event multiple times over the years and it is always buzzing with thousands of eager attendees. Visitors can sample free food offered by many of the vendors, learn about vegetarian and vegan lifestyles, and/or attend lectures from well known speakers. The free speakers present on the hour throughout both afternoons of the festival. It's a great event to wander around, talk to folks, and see and feel what a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle is all about.
The meeting rooms are jammed to capacity for the speakers during the two-day event.
Pictured above signing one of his books is T. Colin Campbell, PhD, author of the best-selling book, "The China Study." He is a Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University. That book, "The China Study," for me personally, more than any other book I read, clearly articulated the validity and rationality of the vegan life choice. It really resonated and remains as "the foundation" for my vegan journey in life. Simply put, I do not want nor need to kill animals for my sustenance. Seated at right is Evelyn Kimber, the president of the Boston Vegetarian Society.
Just outside the entrance to the venue, this band provided live entertainment. Pretty clever - a completely self-contained performance vehicle - stage, power, audio - all inside a completely mobile pick-up truck that stopped at the curb, set up, and started making music.
As I was leaving, I captured this image of a woman skateboarding by the entrance to the festival. I like the motion, subtly captured by the few strands of hair by her ear being blown horizontal as she speeds by me.

"Perfect moments" often crop up when you least expect them to. The one that inspired the piece of writing that follows occurred on the not-especially-wonderful-but-quite-nice Manly Beach in Sydney after I'd spent 45 minutes wandering round the surf shops deciding that I couldn't find a T-shirt that I was prepared to pay the asking price of $60 for. Not a very auspicious background for a realisation of bliss, you might think (as I did). On this occassion we would both have been wrong...
As I sat looking out to sea, waiting vaguely for my friend to finish her shopping, a sense of complete wellbeing arose, along with some realisations that caused me to pick up my pen and my notebook, as I luxuriated in a perfect moment, in the sure knowledge that I could not hold onto it.
Of course, all moments are perfect, it's all about our relationship to reality, and that is the real subject of the little meandering poem/exploration below. I hope you enjoy it.
The absolute bliss
of a perfect moment,
which is any moment
when you know
without a trace of doubt,
that all is well,
everything is as it should be,
and nothing needs to be done.
You are home.
You are home -
knowing that there is no distinction
between you and home.
You are, we are, it is
From here
it seems almost incredible
that you ever believed
that there was anything wrong,
that there was a problem with life,
that you needed something
in order to be
And yet,
checking the record books,
the archives,
the Polaroids,
you realise that you've been here
many times before.
Paradise found,
has somehow,
always become
paradise lost.
The glorious holiday you took last year,
is now reduced to a collection of
fragments of fading memory,
as is every other cherished experience
you've ever had,
or ever will have.
And the joy, which was welcome
has been replaced by flatness
or discomfort,
which aren't welcome at all.
How can this be?
It is simply the experience of being
It seems you have been
holding on to
the superficially plausible myth,
that a single perfect moment
can save your soul.
And it can't.
No experience is it,
and yet any experience
can be the gateway
to recovering your birthright.
To knowing yourself
as the ocean,
the wave,
the grain of sand,
and as god,
as love.
how to live?
If nothing is it
and everything is it?
I shrug and admit,
that I don't know.
What I do know
is that
living will happen,
choices will be made,
and life will unfold.
And the only choice remaining
that's worth the candle
is to love it,
over and over
and over

5 So all the work Solomon did for the Lord's temple was completed. Then Solomon brought the consecrated things of his father David—the silver, the gold, and all the utensils—and put them in the treasuries of God's temple.
2 At that times Solomon assembled at Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the tribal heads, the ancestral chiefs of the Israelites—in order to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord up from the city of David,a that is, Zion. 3 So all the men of Israel were assembled in the king's presence at the festival; this was in the seventh month.A
4 All the elders of Israel came, and the Levites picked up the ark. 5 They brought up the ark, the tent of meeting, and the holy utensils that were in the tent. The priests and the Levites brought them up. 6 King Solomon and the entire congregation of Israel who had gathered around him were in front of the ark sacrificing sheep, goats, and cattle that could not be counted or numbered because there were so many. 7 The priests brought the ark of the Lord's covenant to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the most holy place, beneath the wings of the cherubim.b 8 And the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark so that the cherubim formed a cover above the ark and its poles. 9 The poles were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place* ,c in front of the inner sanctuary, but they were not seen from outside; they are still there today. 10 Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets that Moses had put in it at Horeb,C,d where the Lord had made a covenant with the Israelites when they came out of Egypt.
11 Now all the priests who were present had consecrated themselves regardless of their divisions.e When the priests came out of the holy place, 12 the Levitical singers dressed in fine linen and carrying cymbals, harps, and lyresf were standing east of the altar, and with them were 120 priests blowing trumpets.g The Levitical singers were descendants of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun and their sonsh and relatives. 13 The trumpeters and singers joined together to praise and thank the Lord with one voice. They raised their voices, accompanied by trumpets, cymbals, and musical instruments,i in praise to the Lord:
For he is good;
his faithful love endures forever.j
The temple, the Lord's temple, was filled with a cloud.k 14 And because of the cloud, the priests were not able to continue ministering, for the glory of the Lord filled God's temple.l

A review of last Sunday's episode. Warning: SPOILERS!
I just don't know. Surely the whole reason for placing a iStake on Eric's toned torso is that we get to see his chest when it comes off? The coyness continues apace, with only Hoyt getting any action, if you can call being almost killed by a sleazy male vamp that.
Well, I knew, thanks to an accidental Google, what the big surprise in Hopeless was, and as a result, this episode never really got going. Maybe I'd have felt differently if it wasn't for the spoiler.
Let's get the bad out the way first. Sadly, Sam and Luna survived getting shot- in fact, Luna looked awfully healthy for someone with a hole in her chest. Marcus's mother (who looks like Marcus with a dodgy red wig) will be taking care of Emma (who makes a cute little wolf cub) while they recuperate. Sam's powers came in handy for once when Andy went to the anti-supernatural gun store we saw a few episodes back. Sam smelt the sleazy clerk's adrenaline and saved Andy before he went to attack them.
And why do the anti-supernatural vigilantes wear Obama masks?! Is it an effort to appeal to Republicans? Because there's little else in the show that will. Unless it's all a conspiracy and that's why there's been no sex in Season 5!
Hoyt was rescued from his life of debauchery by the vigilantes, and doubtless more will be revealed next week.
While we're still on the bad: just let the Ifreet finish off Terry and Patrick. I've always liked Terry, but like Sam, he shouldn't be getting his own storylines. I felt there were two serious 'jump-the-shark' moments this episode; when Terry had a flashback to the exact same scene we witnessed last week, and when Holly, Sookie and Arlene had (what felt like) an eternal discussion about men being dogs. Sex and the City-style biting commentary it was not and Sookie, your experience of live men is pretty limited. The laws of TV state that when a show jumps the shark it cannot unjump it. I do love this show, so I hope we haven't witnessed an irreversible decline. I have a nasty feeling that this is unwise optimism though.
There were positives to this episode though. I don't mind the fairy storyline as it does actually relate to the main characters, and we have found out that the vampire that killed Sookie and Jason's parents was drawn to them by Sookie's blood-soaked band-aid on the backseat. Hopefully we will get a concrete explanation as to why Sookie is a fairy and the rest of her family are not. Although Jason has what Terry Pratchett might call "iron in the head," despite the weird dreams he's been having. It better be more convincing than the psychobabble Claude came out with at Fairy Coppers. As to who the vamp is: well, that's a delicious possibility.
Two characters are making me stick with True Blood at the moment. The first is Eric; not just because true love lasts a lifetime, but also because during his all-too-limited screen time, he is a wonderfully wicked character. His sceptical expression during the pleading for Lilith (as an aside I much preferred Nora as a swearing sloane to her current religious maniac version) and prayer time make him exceptionally likeable. He brazenly cockblocked Alcide through hypnotism too, which was a nice touch.
The other one is, of course, Russell. His would-be execution gave us more fantastic scenery-chewing lines than anyone else had the whole season, even Pam. Apple let Roman down for the first and last time, as the i-Stake ("I don't want to get dirty") failed to activate. The iPhone probably ran out of battery. Russell, who is much stronger than you imagine, told Roman he'd been pompous since the Renaissance, escaped and dispatched of the Authority man with the immortal line "Peace is for pussies". Hopefully, there will more Russell-rampaging and Eric-smirking for the second half of the season. Please.

CAREER INTERVIEW: Javed Rafi (from Jamia Millia Islamia) on Founding LetsComply, Starting-up Biztal, a Digital Marketing Co.
Interview by Kanchan Yadav, our campus leader from South Calcutta Law College, Kolkata.
Please introduce yourself to our readers.
I belong to a very small town in Amethi distt. in UP. Born in a middle class family, I was always encouraged to do a respectable and permanent job. That often means climbing entrepreneurial ladder is NOT always acceptable in my culture.
However, my eventful entrepreneurial journey started after a month-long decision when I decided to quit a 'respectable and permanent job'. Besides this, I am a passionate photographer, a writer and an IPR and Consumer lawyer.
Before graduating in 2014 from the Faculty of Law, Jamia Millia Islamia, I started my professional writing journey when my first article titled "The Untold Story of Hidden Victims" was published on a portal in 2013, and that went quite popular among the masses.
Soon, I took a charge of Project Manager of that portal. Since, then, I have published several articles on Human Rights issues, and even I got a chance to work as an intern at Human Rights Law Network, New Delhi, and attended several National and International Conferences on Human Rights in India.
Join Lawctopus Law School, the law school you always wanted, online! Check courses.lawctopus.com
In 2015, I joined Tapzo (formerly known as Akosha) as a Legal Associate. Due to lay off in the company, I started working at Juris NextGen Law Offices as a Legal Associate. Soon after the joining, I was offered to take up the position of Founding Member of LetsComply (a sister company of Juris NextGen).
In 2016, I left LetsComply and launched my first Digital Marketing Company, Biztal. We are currently working on some other business models, and soon we will roll out them in the market.
What motivated you to take up Law?
Believe it or not, I didn't really know that I was going to opt for Law as my career option after I completed my school education. My Maternal aunt – Prof. Najma Amin, is my admirer. She advised me to pursue BA.LLB. (Hons), thinking that I would do better in the realm of law and I am very blessed that I followed her advice sincerely.
Even after her retirement, she is still engrossed in her academic work in the field of Psychology, and I often discuss things with her before taking any crucial decision of my life. She is not only a great Academician but, also, a constant learner.
There is a wide range of scope in the profession of law. With the reforms in our legal system, this scope is widened now. Not only this, a lawyer is being seen at the pinnacle of his or her career in the business field too.
According to me, a law graduate has knowledge of mostly all the fields that exists in our society. He or she requires to go through health laws, space laws, cyber laws and Human Rights laws, etc., that paves the way for some good career opportunities for him or her.
When I joined law, the scope for a Corporate lawyer was at boom. Hence, there were innumerable factors that helped me to take up law as a career.
You were the Founding Member of LetsComply. Tell us your job role at LetsComply.
While serving as a Founding Member of LetsComply, I worked with the Director of LetsComply (former CFO of Barista).
Apart from leading a team of IPR Associates, I was handling operations strategies for the Tech. & SEO/SMO team. Also, I was a manager of the Content Marketing team.
The best part was when I led a project for Fashion TV India's "F – Bar & Lounge" (one of the clients of LetsComply). The project was based on the projection of "Bar and Lounge" trends in the F&B sector.
The research work sought to determine the factors for making investments by Fashion TV India on its several Bar & Lounge units across various Metropolitan cities in India. India's Food and Beverages (F&B) Industry was predicted to expand at an average annual pace of 24% to reach Rs. 3.8 trillion in sales by the year ending 31st March, 2017.
An analysis was also, done in the market segment of Bar and Lounges in India, competitors in the PBCL market, purchasing power of the people of different classes in India, liquor consumption in major states, and factors affecting why bar and lounges are trending in India, etc.
Moreover, other major projects included inward FDI trends in Hong Kong, and ESOPs in Startups, etc. I was a part of LetsComply for a period of 1 and a half year. Later, I quit LetsComply to start my own company, Biztal.
Please tell us about your company Biztal. What is the nature of work Biztal deals with?
Biztal is a Digital Marketing Company based in New Delhi. It has a wide range of expertise, and experience in digital marketing.
The company digitizes all forms of brands, providing them an interactive experience with their clients by creating marketing solutions that tailored to attract customers as well as helping customers connect more deeply with their brands. We have various operations in other States too.
Biztal ensures that its clients achieve exposure, have their visibility and is able to generate leads by providing services like Graphic Designing, Content Strategy, Brand Strategy Audit, Web Development, PPC Management, Video Marketing and Search Engine Optimization, and Social Media Optimization, etc.
Also, the company helps them to improve their Public Relations in a way that benefit them in their future projects.
No doubt, there are many digital marketing companies in the market, but, what makes Biztal a unique brand is that we have a strong and result-oriented process of work. We work to satisfy the client in the best possible manner.
Tell us about your influencer.
I am just following the footsteps of Eric Ries who is a famous American Entrepreneur and Blogger.
Ries' philosophy is based on the Japanese concept of lean manufacturing, which seeks to increase value-creating practices and eliminate wasteful practices. Likewise, we, at Biztal, are trying to apply a methodology based on the same principles of Ries.
Also, Ries in his popular book, 'The Lean Startup', believes that "Startup success is not a consequence of good genes or being in the right place at the right time. Startup success can be engineered by following the right process, which means it can be learned, which means it can be taught."
What do you think potential recruiters look for in law students?
Let's start with the importance of Resume. It is your resume that makes the first impression in an interview. Make it concise, clear and in one page or maximum two pages (except academic CVs). Yes, you read it right. No employer is going to listen to a story of your career background.
Secondly, it is very important to keep it in mind that recruiters always read your internship experience thoroughly. You have to be ready for the questions which are related to your work during your internship programmes. Try avoiding a contrived situation by NOT exaggerating your statements.
Thirdly, your legal awareness, technical legal ability, good communication and presentation skills, etc. are very important factors that would really help you in getting a good job. There are some recruiters who look for creativity, enthusiasm and determination too.
What was the biggest challenge you faced in your career?
The biggest challenges I faced were in 2015 and 2016.
In October 2015, I had to choose between joining a US based company in Noida, which was offering me a smart package, and my previous company, in which I had an option to learn entrepreneurship. I took a period of 1 week to make a decision, and I opted for the latter.
Later, in 2016, I took a bold decision by leaving two integral job roles that is. as a Legal Associate and a Founding Member, but, I knew this decision would position me well in the market. It was a time of incredible stress and self-reflection.
After taking this difficult decision to move forward with Biztal, it turned out to be quite fruitful than I had predicted. An app-based Healthcare startup became our first client. Soon, several renowned Doctors in Delhi NCR availed our digital marketing services and helped us to move forward in the social arena.
What advice would you provide for budding lawyers?
Simply, I would like to advise you – "Practice your skills, experiment with your ideas, and execute them into action".
Don't let your dream slip away from your hand. It is only you who is the "Master of your fate". Set your aim, and nail it by doing hardwork. A good lawyer never retires, no matter he or she is an entrepreneur, writer, activist or a politician. So, keep reading and writing good stuff.

Counselling in South East London
West Norwood
The beginning of therapy makes you feeling nervous and embarrassed, you are not sure what you would talk about it, or could you cope with the whole session! Revisiting those personal memories embedded in the subconscious that permeate the habit on focusing on your character flaws when things go wrong, this can prevent you from moving forward.
The experience of a relationship with a Narcissist has left you feeling doubting your own sanity,
a Narcissist is charismatic, charming, seductive, and only when the love bombing phase is over a new chapter will be unfolding: the drama, the lies, the gaslighting, the abusive, behaviour is in full swing! Toxic relationships have left you with a tendency to self criticism filled with deep anger. Trauma and Abuse plunges the individual into a spiral of guilt, shame, low self esteem and depression to name a few aspects.
Counselling promote a connection with your self, by exploring life difficulties emerging from family dynamics, interpersonal trauma when boundaries are crossed. Counselling helps you to alleviate that pain on your own terms, to live more fulfilled a life. As your therapist I am not here to tell you what you should or should not be doing, I provide you with a tool box to access those unconscious and conscious layers of your being, to explore changes and make progressive steps to achieve your aims.
The focus of my work is about the dynamics playing in your rapport, communication is a predominant to maintain quality in the relationship with your partner free from gender based - role display. Couples that undertake therapy should be proud for the effort they make to help them how to accept differences, to share their emotional needs, to build strength and a better insight into their lives as a couple. Pre marital counselling enables you to navigate your expectations, to negotiate a satisfactory plan for your future, to feel confident in taking your relationship one step further.
Relationship Conflicts
Narcissistic Abuse
Pre Marital Counselling
Self - Harm
Anger and Rage
Parenting and Step Parenting
Addiction Behaviours
Anger is the result of hidden feeling of shame or fear, unexpressed anger plays a part in what you are experiencing. Many emotions can be felt, if not explored these can prevent you to re connect with yourself, and those close to you.
Feeling irritable, exhausted, hopeless, experiencing irregular sleep patterns, an erratic eating routine can be daunting. Memories of past trauma triggers somatic responses, those physical symptoms can affect your daily life leaving you to feel distressed and edgy.
Counselling support you to reclaim dignity, to bring back your own capability and autonomy, helps you to assert yourself to say NO! to build Boundaries to ask yourself What Do I Need Now? To re build your self image.

So often we hear comments like, "How can I motivate her?" or "I don't know what to do to inspire him."And yet it's quite clear that we can't motivate someone else. Sustainable motivation comes from within. We recognize that, of course, but sometimes we just want to help it along!
Well, there's good news! There are ways to help inspire others by creating a motivating environment to promote that self-motivation we wish everyone had. We'll talk about what motivation is and what it isn't. We'll brainstorm together to create a list of ways you can help create an inspiring, motivating environment. We'll discover the power in praise, and how to use it effectively. Ah...being an inspiration to others ~ isn't that what we all want as supervisors?

The wind whipped and the snow swirled around the car. One second I could see clearly and the next we were enveloped in a whiteout with no sense of what lay ahead. I pulled over to wait it out. When the wind died down and the snow returned to the ground I got my first glimpse of the wind dancer.
Suspended in air and close to the earth he road the air current like a professional in a vertical wind tunnel. Flapping occasionally to adjust his position, his dance was effortless and beautiful. With a tilt of his wings the wind carried him high into the sky like a kite. He often returned to the swift current that held him stationary a couple feet above last year's corn stumps. As I rolled down the window to snap a few pictures the cold wind rushed into the car. In that brief moment, my body tingled with excitement and I knew why the rough-legged hawk, that I was observing, was dancing in the wind. He lives for the rush of the wind, for the excitement of being suspended by an air current one moment and then soaring or plunging the next. The dance is exhilarating! The excitement was palpable.
Just when I thought this experience could not get more perfect I saw her, a gorgeous female soaring high above. Each dancing a solitary dance that flowed together to generate nature's perfectly choreographed wind dance. The pair flew closer together, becoming more in sync, soaring and dipping as one. Then he twisted his body and touched her abdomen with his feet. This was not aggression, it was play. They danced and played in the wind then disappeared into the blowing snow.
Above are two pictures of another rough-legged hawk that I observed today. I believe this one is a male light morph. You can see the color variations between these three birds. It is interesting to note that the rough-legged hawk, like the snowy owl, breeds and lives most of the year in the Arctic tundra. It migrates south during the winter and finds its home in open fields. Every place I have observed snowy owls I have also seen rough-legged hawks. They are quite beautiful and have feathers all the way to their toes. Much like norther harrier hawks that breed in our area, rough-legged hawks spend time hovering to hunt and play/practice in the wind. In my story I refer to the dark morph rough-legged as a male. This is based on my impression of what I witnessed as both males and females can exhibit the dark color pattern and it is difficult to tell them apart unless they are side-by-side. The light morph hawk that I observed I refer to as a female both because of my impression and because the underside of her wings is quite light and she has a dark band on her belly.

The United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has updated PPQ Form 377: Gypsy Moth Checklist and Record of Your Self-Inspection. People who live in the gypsy moth quarantine area—generally the northeast quadrant of the contiguous United States—must use PPQ Form 377 to inspect their outdoor household goods for gypsy moth before they move to a non-infested area. The Federal gypsy moth regulations (Title 7 Code of Federal Regulations 301.45-4) require this action to prevent the human-assisted movement of this damaging pest of woody plants. A copy of the form must be accompany the household goods during the move. This checklist may be completed by the person moving or by a qualified certified applicator. Once completed and signed, the checklist is an official certificate that will satisfy Federal requirements for interstate moves.
The updated checklist is now a fillable PDF document that can be completed and signed digitally. This electronic document, once completed and signed digitally, is acceptable in all instances where the checklist is required. The new version of the checklist makes it easier for those who are moving and for the moving industry to comply with the gypsy moth regulations. The updated checklist can be downloaded from the APHIS Web site. It is the second page of the factsheet "It's the Law: Before Moving, Check for the Gypsy Moth."

Psychiatric comorbidity appears to play a key role in an elevated risk of premature death in adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), according to a longitudinal study published online in JAMA Psychiatry.
"In a national register-based cohort study with more than 2.6 million individuals, we found that ADHD was associated with elevated all-cause and cause-specific mortality risks," researchers reported. "The association was stronger in adulthood than in childhood, with increased risks when ADHD was diagnosed later."
"In adulthood, the all-cause mortality risk increased substantially with the number of psychiatric comorbidities with ADHD," they wrote.
The study was based on Swedish national register data for people born between 1983 and 2009, 3.2% of whom were diagnosed with ADHD.
Saffron Shows Promise as ADHD Treatment
Among individuals with ADHD, 424 died during follow-up, compared with 6231 deaths in the group without ADHD. That translated to an all-cause mortality rate of 11.57 per 10,000 person-years for people with ADHD compared with a mortality rate of 2.16 per 10,000 person-years for people without ADHD.
While the adjusted hazard ratio of all-cause mortality with ADHD alone was 1.41, it increased substantially with the number of psychiatric comorbidities, the study found. With a single comorbid psychiatric condition, the hazard ratio of all-cause mortality was 3.71; with 4 or more psychiatric comorbidities, it was 25.22.
Among adults, early-onset psychiatric comorbidity was primarily associated with deaths due to natural causes, such as neoplasms, researchers found. Later-onset psychiatric comorbidity—substance use disorder, in particular—was mainly associated with deaths from unnatural causes, such as suicide and unintentional injury.
"These findings suggest that health care professionals should closely monitor specific psychiatric comorbidities in individuals with ADHD to identify high-risk groups for prevention efforts," researchers advised.

Government should rethink the Sethusamudram project
DMK has set its eyes on the 2400 Crores project. What if the project is a dead waste , There is much money to be made. The time is short. Elections are due next year. Congressmen are in a bind. Lucre on one side, fear of BJP on the other.
An excerpt from TOI Editorial
The Coast Guard chief has added a new twist to the Sethusamudram controversy. He thinks that the proposed shipping canal is vulnerable to terror strikes from non-state actors in the region. Recently, the naval chief was quoted as saying that the canal may be too small for large ships. The project has already attracted undue opposition from political parties, religious groups and environmentalists. So, is the canal project worth pursuing?
Pro-project parties claim that Sethusamudram will boost shipping activities in the region. It can trigger an economic boom in coastal Tamil Nadu, they say. Experts have questioned these claims. The security threat may have come at a politically opportune moment for the UPA government that is under pressure from the DMK, an ally and the party in office in Tamil Nadu, to implement the project while the AIADMK, the main opposition party in TN, and the BJP, are opposed to the project for different reasons. But they have raised the security angle to push their case.
The UPA government should ask itself if it is worth its while to push the Rs 2,600-crore project in the absence of a consensus on its viability. What is the project worth if large vessels can't cruise through the channel? The security concerns are real; the LTTE operates along the route and can be a threat to trade in the region.
These can be overcome but the added expenses of surveillance and patrolling will increase the cost of maintaining the channel. Environmentalists argue that massive dredging operations are necessary to prevent the natural formation of sand banks and to maintain the depth of the channel.
The shipping canal, according to environmentalists, might affect the Gulf of Mannar biosphere reserve. The livelihood of hundreds of fishermen is also under threat.
These issues merit consideration and detailed study. Instead, the project has snowballed into a confrontation between scientific logic and religious faith. The issue here is not whether Lord Ram built a bridge. Many scientific bodies have concluded that the Ram Setu or Adam's Bridge is a natural structure formed of sand banks. But the economic gains from the project do not seem sufficient to merit so much investment in capital and time from the government.
The Archaeological Survey of India can determine the origins of the setu to satisfy the curiosity of interested parties, but it amounts only to a wastage of public funds. A better option is to abandon the project and move on.

12 Nov How to Prepare for Surgery
You have been told by your medical provider that you need to have surgery and your mind is going in a million different directions. How do you make the decision whether to have a surgery or a medical procedure done?
First off remember that there is no such thing as "minor" surgery if it's your body. Find out the official name of the procedure or surgery and ask for explanations in simple language. This can be done by asking questions like the following of your health care provider;
• Can you take a few minutes to explain this to me?
• Can you draw a quick picture or show me a picture of what will happen?
• What can I read, listen to or watch to learn more about this?
Next think about your expectation or the benefit you hope to gain from having the surgery. Are you looking to relieve pain or preserve normal function again? It might be something that will actually prolong or save your life. Then write those expectations down and clearly communicate them to your doctor. Remember to keep a realistic perspective on these.
Once you relate your expectations to your doctor it's important to find out the probability, or success rate, of the surgery. Ask your doctor how many times he's performed this procedure and what his/her success rate is. Here's what success rate percentages look like in plain language.
• Greater than 90% Almost always works
• Greater than 75% Likely to work
• Greater than 50% Works over half the time
• Less than 50% Works less than half the time
• Less than 25% Unlikely to work
• Less than 10% Hardly ever works
After gathering this important information you may want to get a second opinion with another healthcare provider. This is a common practice.
Exploring other choices or alternatives for the problem can also be beneficial. You might want to consider "watchful waiting" for a period of time, or consider non-surgical alternatives for the problem. Another consideration is asking yourself, "How will my life be different if I decide not to have this procedure?"
What are the risks associated with this procedure, both now and in the future? There are two types of risks with procedures in general, complications and side effects. More risks are involved when having surgery such as: infection, hemorrhage, pain, accidental injury, and even death. This is vital to know before agreeing to any procedure or surgery.
The last thing to consider when deciding on a surgery or procedure is the expense. Health care costs vary greatly so get clear information from your doctor about the cost of the procedure. Also, make sure you understand your health care benefits or health insurance coverages.
Just remember to make a good decision you must be
P rocedure – What is being recommended?
R eason – What harm is your problem causing you?
E xpectation – What benefit can you reasonably expect?
P robability – What is the success rate?
A lternatives – What other choices do you have?
R isks – What possible problems may occur?
E xpense – What are the costs? What will insurance cover?
D ecision – Do you have enough information to make an informed decision?

The Luquillo Mountains are located in the northeastern portion of Puerto Rico, and they rise to elevations of 1,075 meters (about 3,527 feet). Higher elevations receive more rainfall than lower elevations, leading to subtropical forest types in the lowlands and high-mountain forest types near the summits. This astronaut photograph, taken during the rainy season, illustrates the rich vegetation on the mountains.
Astronaut photograph ISS016-E-18385 was acquired on December 23, 2007, with a Kodak 760C digital camera fitted with a 400 mm lens, and is provided by the ISS Crew Earth Observations experiment. The image was taken by the Expedition 16 crew, and is provided by the Image Science & Analysis Laboratory, Johnson Space Center. The image in this article has been cropped and enhanced to improve contrast. Lens artifacts have been removed. The International Space Station Program supports the laboratory to help astronauts take pictures of Earth that will be of the greatest value to scientists and the public, and to make those images freely available on the Internet.

Are you enjoying your summer so far? Have you been knee-deep in projects?
I have, and this weekend I took to just catch up on a whole bunch of them. I usually have three or four projects going at any given time and sometimes it's nice to just have a day or two to catch up and actually finish them. The problem is, every time I finish one, there are six more waiting to be started 😉 I will never complain though as that's what keeps me inspired and happy.
Be inspired today and may you find time to finish all of your projects!

Trends in Ecology and Evolution, doi: 10.1016/j.tree.2019.01.009. PDF
New research in TREE "Translating Marine Animal Tracking Data into Conservation Policy and Management"
Abstract: There have been efforts around the globe to track individuals of many marine species and assess their movements and distribution, with the putative goal of supporting their conservation and management. Determining whether, and how, tracking data have been successfully applied to address real-world conservation issues is, however, difficult. Here, we compile a broad range of case studies from diverse marine taxa to show how tracking data have helped inform conservation policy and management, including reductions in fisheries bycatch and vessel strikes, and the design and administration of marine protected areas and important habitats. Using these examples, we highlight pathways through which the past and future investment in collecting animal tracking data might be better used to achieve tangible conservation benefits.
