East Barnet is an Academy Trust Company. It has five Members who 'own' the company – a bit like shareholders in a commercial firm. They have a constitutional role in the running of the Academy. They ensure the company follows our constitution and that it performs its functions in accordance with its charitable objectives.
The majority of people on the Governing Body are not educational professionals, but willing volunteers who bring knowledge, skills and perspectives from the wider community. They are there to represent the public in the running of the school. They are not there to tell the Headteacher how to run the school.
Governors are involved in setting curriculum, discipline, admission and similar major policies. They appoint, reward and discipline staff, but do not decide who should be teaching Year 8 for English on a Monday morning!
The Governing Body is responsible for the overall budget distribution, but not how many pencils are bought.
Our Governing Body has currently 15 Governors.
The Headteacher and Associate Deputy Headteachers, Bursar are non-voting members who attend to answer questions and give advice.
A Chair of Governors and Vice Chair(s) of Governors are elected annually by the Governing Body from within this group. Chairs and Vice Chairs of Committees are also elected each year.
There are five Members of the East Barnet School Academy Trust Company: one of the original signatories to the Memorandum of Association, the Chair of Governors and three non-trustee Members.
The normal term of office for governors is four years.

Fly fishing a small stream or brook can be a daunting prospect if your have never fished one before. It can be a difficult challenge at times, but by keeping things simple you can catch lots of fish and really enjoy yourself! Take a read of these top tips for getting the most out of fly fishing a diminutive river.
1. Scale down – there is no point heading down to a small stream 15 feet wide with a 10 foot 8 weight reservoir rod. I have seen this done many a time. Lets face it you need to scale down to suit your water. I would say a perfect all-round length for a smaller brook would be a 7'6 3/4 weight fly rod. Short enough to get under dense overhead tree cover, but with enough power to stop a bigger trout and push a fly into a breeze.
2. Watch your back cast – with small stream fishing the back cast is just as important as the front. Get into position and plan the path of both your forward and back casts. Consider your position in the river and anything that may get in the way, overhanging foliage, brambles etc. We all know what it is like when your fly goes into a tree branch just out of reach!
3. Move with stealth – Small stream trout get to a catchable size by being cautious. These fish are ultra sensitive. A clumsy footfall or bow wave from entering the water clumsily is sure to put all the fish down in each pool. So enter the water as quietly and softly as the terrain allows. Also don't walk up to a pool along a high bank – plan your entry spot with the knowledge that trout face upstream.
4. Make your first cast count – OK the pressure is on, but it will be worth it! If you get your first cast right, if there is a fish in there the chances are it will nail the fly first chuck. So be ready for action. By the same measure don't spend too much time in one pool – if nothing happens within 3/4 well presented casts then move on.
5. Keep fly choice simple – There is no need to make things complicated. Small stream trout are not picky when it comes to fishing flies. Changing the fly countless time will not get you more fish, its about presentation. So take general searching patterns. Dry flies such as parachute adams, klinkhammers, foam beetles and daddy long legs will do the job. For nymphs, simple flies such as copper johns, GRHE and pheasant tails will come in handy. My usual starting approach is a duo – a big dry fly acting as an indicator with a small nymph underneath tied directly to the bend of the hook. If fish keep slashing at the dry and miss it, take the nymph off.

Hi all,
I'm looking for a good area to wild camp in the Lake District.
I prefer to use a hammock so woodland would be perfect, especially if there are fresh water streams nearby.
Happy to hike if need be (if it means being away from bumping into anybody).
Leave no trace rule will always apply, just got a couple of nights free.

Keeping with Spider-Man: Homecoming's theme of showing the wall-crawler as a regular teen, his antagonist Vulture will be a regular bad guy. When he's not donning the Vulture's wings, Michael Keaton's Adrian Toomes is a blue-collar guy who runs a salvaging company, according to USA Today. He's been on cleanup duty in New York to manage the destruction after superhero battles, until an organization founded by Tony Stark takes over his contract. The controversy gives Toomes business beef with Stark, co-producer Eric Hauserman Carroll told USA Today, and Keaton's character "sort of becomes the dark Tony Stark." Director Jon Watts said making Adrian Toomes a normal villain without powers or millions of dollars was inspired by John C. Reilly's Guardians of the Galaxy character. "I like the idea that in these huge movies, you pick out one extra and you're like, 'What does he think of all this?'" Watts said. "Sometimes these movies are so casual about just destroying whole cities and incredible things happen and everyone's like, 'Eh, whatever.' If that really happened, it would be amazing and change everything."
The salvaging-job twist also gives the Vulture a chance to dig through other characters' post-battle leftovers. "It's a really great starting point for the villains to have the Vulture picking over the stuff and finding the valuable exotic elements and having the Tinkerer [Michael Chernus] assemble into something that could be used," Watts said. With a villain with government-contract troubles and no superpowers, finally Spider-Man can address the economic anxieties of the working-class white man.

Price's Dairy-Valle de Oro NWR
Yesterday while getting some nyjer seed in Corrales we got a hot tip from the owner, and fellow birds and beer attendee, about Bobolinks seen south of Albuquerque. Since my wife had to work very late, and it was Birds and Beers night at O'Neils pub, I put the kids in the van and drove down to check things out.
But before I even walked into the pet store, I saw a Cooper's Hawk on a light post and managed to get a shot of it as it flew off.
We made our way South on I-25 to Albuquerque's South Valley and the former Price's Dairy. It's now known as Valle de Oro NWR, one of the largest and first urban wildlife refuges in the country. And here's a quirk of New Mexico, the refuge's location south of Albuquerque puts it 30 minutes away from half of New Mexico's population. And New Mexico is the 5th largest state in the country.
Getting there was really easy. It isn't too far from I-25 and runs alongside the Rail Runner tracks, although there isn't a stop there. But if people were serious about getting visitors there, then maybe some day there could be. In the 30 minutes that we were there we saw the Southbound Rail Runner, a cargo train and an Amtrak train all speeding by. That was enough for my daughter to want to go back. She does want to be a train driver some day.
The layout of the place is still pretty primitive, and awkward to really bird. The refuge is an old dairy farm, so access roads and irrigation ditches cross it from North to South. And most of the birds were either on barbed wire fences that run along the ditches, or in the flooded parts of the fields, which were interior from the roads. I walked for a bit, but ended up taking our van down the dirt roads as a sort of mobile blind. This actually worked for the smaller birds, but we scared a large group of egrets and a Great Blue Heron into flying away. There is a bridge over the large ditch a quarter of a mile from the paved road, so you could make a U-turn and come back the other side, but we just turned around and came down the way we went. Another word of advice is to put on some bug spray. My daughter and I both got bit by mosquitoes quite a bit. She had her very first bite and was freaked out seeing a bug drinking her blood.
We were there to see a Bobolink, but saw lots of other birds instead. Barn Swallows were sitting on the barbed wire fences and would let me get pretty close before flying off.
There was also a large group of Egrets sitting on the East side of the ditch road maybe a 100 yards down the way, along with a Great Blue Heron, Kingbirds and a Meadowlark.
There were both Cattle and Snowy Egrets there, and in an unusually large number according to ebird. I've never seen Cattle Egrets in their mating plumage and it looked pretty neat.
And here's the Great Blue Heron just getting ready to fly away from us.
And a small flock of White-faced Ibises flew into the flooded field while we were there. Afterwards at Birds and Beers I had learned that a Glossy Ibis was seen there before, but there was no way for me to tell if one was there with the kids in the van.
There were lots of birds sitting on the barbwire fences and posing really nice.
We even got a close look at a Swainson's Hawk as it flew up from the grass and lit on a fence post right across from the van.
But we did get to see one Bobolink. It was on one of the fences and was singing it's little heart out. What a great looking bird. They travel over 15,000 miles between their Winter and Summer grounds. And the males do a complete costume change from drab brown Winter plumage to this showy black, white and yellow (perfect Pittsburgh colors) breeding outfit.
I plan on going back to Valle De Oro soon. There are some parts that are in the Bosque and I'd like to see some more Bobolinks before they leave. Here is where you can go to see them, they'll be along the ditches.
And I've learned how to insert hyperlinks, hopefully it's not too annoying.
Thanks for making it this far,
Great blog post. Birds & Beer, Bobolinks & Trains, AND you took the kids. Fantastic.
Hi, I just came across this post and I'm very impressed with your photographs. I'm a member of the Friends of the Valle de Oro and would like to encourage you to submit some of your photos to our contest. You can get information on our website, friendsofvalledeoro.org The deadline is September 30th. You have to be a member to submit photos.

Buying a sound bar for your HDTV is not as complicated as getting a multispeaker sound system. You can expect that sound bars are very simple in form factor and should be able to provide better sound quality than your TV's speakers. Understandably, multichannel speaker systems are still superior although you may end up paying more and have to deal with a more complicated setup process. Going back to choosing the sound bar, you pretty much have to pick one that is about the same width as your TV and you should get the best results relative to your listening area. But what if you plan on buying a larger TV next year? While a good sound bar shouldn't disappoint that much in sound quality when connected to much larger TVs, the Sharp HT-SL77 has the intention to adapt to your upgrades so you won't have to buy a new sound system for the unforeseeable future.
Wide sound bars for 50-inch TVs are a bit common but not exactly ones that are an inch thick. The HT-SL77 successfully enters that territory and weighs quite light at around 2.65 pounds. It doesn't really look like a sound bar from afar but using the stands to give the sound bar a little more height adds a nice touch right in front of your TV's stand. If your massive display is already mounted on the wall, you can mount the thin speaker right below the base of the TV and it should look great.
Typical sound bars are usually stuck with those 2 setup scenarios but the extra accessories offer even more ways to setup the entire sound system. The left and right parts of the sound bar can be detached and what is left after detaching is a part which Sharp calls a "cover joint". The cover joint has the Sharp logo in front and pretty much bridges the 2 speakers together. Because of this modular approach, you can extend the width of your sound bar to properly match your TV. The smallest cover joint, for instance, connects both speakers so you end up with a sound bar suitable for 46-inch TVs. But with the 3 additional cover joints each with different widths, the Sharp HT-SL77 can also match 52-inch, 60-inch and even 70-inch TVs. All 4 cover joints are included in the package so all you have to do is decide which cover joint to use when assembling the sound bar.
To make things even more interesting, you don't even have to use any of the cover joints. Keep the 2 speaker parts separate and install them to the included stand bases and stand covers and you can end up with a pair of beautiful and thin speaker towers which you can put anywhere in the living room provided that the wire reaches. This kind of setup can also be useful if you don't have a wide enough surface for placing a very wide sound bar.
Regardless of how you set up or position the speakers, the speakers have to be connected to the included amplifier system. This unit features HDMI input and output terminals for TV connection along with an audio in and quartet of speaker terminals. The front of the unit features a pairing button, input selector and gain knob for the audio in. The purpose of the pairing button is to connect the unit to the subwoofer which is also included. The subwoofer can connect to the main unit wirelessly which helps simplify the setup process.
The HT-SL77 is a 2.1-channel speaker system and nothing more. It is not capable of connecting to mobile devices wirelessly and it doesn't have any additional technologies that augment the sound quality. The Sharp HT-SL77 fully relies on its physical hardware and modular advantages so you can figure out the best speaker setup for your living room and TV size.
If properly set up, the HT-SL77 can indeed pump out a lot of power. The total output wattage is 200 watts and half of it is provided by the subwoofer making this a more powerful combination than many sub-$300 sound systems. The idea of using cover joints is a nice way to make the sound quality consistently good across different screen sizes. Vocals lack a depth though and it could be a result for not adding any sound enhancing technologies within the sound system. Fortunately, the subwoofer helps with the lower frequencies.
Bottom Line
The fact that this sound bar costs well over $400 might be a cause of concern especially since this speaker system offers no real features of its own. On functionality, it is stuck in the past but the design is elegant and the various installation possibilities mean that you won't have change your sound system as much as you would change your TV unless of course you need extra features like Bluetooth etc. But if your other home theater components or TV have these features, the Sharp HT-SL77 could end up being a reasonable choice for a large screen TV for movie watching or music listening.

Celtic are in the market for another English Premier League loan deal this summer, targeting Liverpool's talented winger Harry Wilson for a switch to the Scottish Premiership.
That's according to The Scottish Sun, who report that the Hoops are set to rival Steven Gerrard's Rangers for his signature.
With Hull City and Norwich City also interested in his services according to the paper, competition is fierce in the race the land him on a temporary basis.
The winger is ordinarily rated as worth £900,000 by Transfermarkt, although Liverpool clearly see something in him if they are not willing to part with him permanently.
Wilson has already spent a spell on loan at Hull, impressing at the club in the second half of last season in the English Championship.
He made 13 appearances for the Tigers, scoring seven goals and assists four more. That's the kind of attacking impact that demonstrates he is not only ready for more first-team football, but has the ability to make an impression in the Scottish top-flight.
With the departure of Patrick Roberts and Stuart Armstrong this summer, the Hoops could do with reinforcements in attacking midfield and although loan deals are never the preferred option for supporters, this is one that could fit the bill, especially since he also possesses the versatility of being able to play on either wing.
Do you think Celtic should make a move for Harry Wilson? Have your say in our poll below…

Police grab king pin, appears in Court, gets bail.
By: Mohammed Abu, Accra
Vagid Musaev, alias Vladimir Nabiyev, the third accused in the case of alleged kidnapping of two of their fellow Russians nationals who was reportedly arrested on Saturday appeared in court on Wednesday alongside the first accused, Musah Musaev and the second accused, Rhezahan Sultanov.
He was jointly charged with the first and second accused with conspiracy to commit crime and kidnapping..
Restating the facts of the case again, DSP Nanegbe, said,the accused allegedly kidnapped the two victims at East Legon on August 8, last year and kept them until April 2018.
The prosecution stated that the accused allegedly kidnapped Mr. Ramazan Kafaroff at Adgiringano, East Legon, on his way home after office hours on August 8, and also later kidnapped his brother Arsan Kafarov last year and kept them until April 2018.
The Prosecution said the accused and their accomplices kept the victims at different locations, subjected them to severe beatings which resulted in injuries. The accused and their accomplices, however, demanded $18 million to release the victims.
On October 31, last year while the victims were in the custody of the alleged kidnappers, Ramazan, one of the victims, was compelled to execute a Power of Attorney to one Adam Edelberg to dispose of all his property comprising his business, six luxurious vehicles and a jewelry shop. Based upon this,the accused also started selling the rice imported by Kafaroff Agro while Ramazan Kafarov and his brother were held in captivity.
The Prosecution said on April 20, this year the two victims managed to escape and sought refuge at the Russian Embassy. They later lodged complaint with the Police.
On July 17, this year, the police, through intelligence, lured the accused persons and arrested them, the Prosecution added.
Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Mawunyo Nanegbe, opposed to bail, noted that the accused was arrested only last Saturday and that investigations was still ongoing .The court, presided over by Abena Oppong Adjin-Doku asked DSP Nanegbe if they still needed the accused who has already been charged and his response was in the affirmative.
He further noted that, the third accused was also the king pin and masterminded the kidnapping since he claims Ramazan Kafarov owes him. Thus, the accused be remanded in custody as he could interfere with police investigations if granted bail.
Ralph Poku Edusei, represented all three accused persons, and prayed the court to admit Vagid Musaev to bail based upon a claim that he wasn't in sound health condition but without any medical evidence to back it. He also said that , the facts do not support the charges and the story was inconsistent. Therefore, the case was bailable and the accused have people of substance who would stand as sureties for him.
Even though it wasn't yet time to go into the facts ,Mr.Edusei, stated that there is evidence that, the victim voluntarily voted at the embassy during the Russian elections which coincided with the time they were said to have been kidnapped and wondered how kidnapped people could come to vote at the embassy.
He further alleged that Ramazan Kaffarov is being wanted by Interpol and would be arrested as soon as he was to leave the embassy adding that he had a record of police cases.
The court, granted the third accused to bail in the sum of GH¢500,000 with four sureties to be justified exactly as was earlier accorded the first and second accused. The court further ordered him to deposit his passport with the court's registry.
The case was adjourned until 27th September, 2018.

Work Safety Commissioner Mark McCabe will be investigating the need for building inspectors to be made available on weekends to stop builders avoiding development rules.
The ACT's work safety watchdog received complaints about an inner south construction company which had both a prohbition notice and stop notice issued this year for unapproved work on its business land.
McCabe said a 24 hour Work Safe hotline is available which enabled a Work Safe inspector to be called with powers enough to stop work until the next business day, at least.

Improving Students' Tenses Mastery through Tenses Symbol Technique (TST) in Class X4 at SMA Negeri 1 Pekanbaru
Student's Tenses mastery is an important competence to support the major English skills, listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Beside, the tenses mastery is also important to have another grammar materials that need Tenses mastery as the basic knowledge. However, in reality, students' tenses mastery is very minimal that they are not able to call out the names of the tenses, mention the formulas, let alone to understand meaning and the usage in sentences. To solve this problem the resercher has created a teaching technique, namely, Tenses Symbols Technique (TST) that covers four steps of tenses mastery: memorizing tenses names, formulating tenses patterns, understanding tenses meanings, dan applying in context. Clasroom Action Research is the research method applied in this research because the aim of this research merely to solve the problem the researcher has in her own class. From the two cycles of Classroom Action Research that consists of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting, and from data analyzing , it was proven that Tenses Symbols Tecnique (TST) could improve the students' tenses mastery as 81% in cycle 1 and 95% in cycle 2 because the application of symbols in this technique could simplify of the process of decoding the meaning of each tenses. So, the result of this research is TST could improve students' tenses mastery.

Have you ever felt as if your prayers are bouncing back to you off the ceiling? That your prayers are being hindered? There are many reasons your prayers might feel impeded. For instance, a husband mistreating his wife will find his prayers hindered (1 Pet. 3:7).
In fact, if you do something to offend a family member or friend and you don't ask for forgiveness, doesn't it hinder your communication with them? Certainly it does. Similarly, when we offend God, it affects our communication with Him. Because sin is an offense against God. Sin separates. It hinders communication. And isn't that what prayer is? Communication with God? So, unconfessed sin absolutely hinders our prayer life.
Yet in confessing, we agree with God that we have offended Him and that we need His forgiveness. Confessing our sin, God hears our prayers and answers. As the apostle John wrote, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9).
So let us join with the psalmist and confess our sins, that our prayers might not be hindered. And that we might experience the forgiveness and cleansing of God's "unfailing love" through His Son, Jesus Christ.

U.S. Workforce Feels Fallout of Opioid Crisis
The opioid crisis is creating a workforce epidemic leading to labor shortage and workplace safety and performance challenges.
By Chip Cutter
The opioid epidemic is having widespread affects on many industries, in terms of labor shortages, workplace safety and worker performance, and on companies small to large in all manner of labor categories.
Managers and owners are trying to figure out ways to deal with drug-addicted workers and job applicants and cite the opioid crisis as one of their biggest challenges. Applicants are unwilling or unable to pass drug tests, employees are increasingly showing signs of addiction on the job and there are also workers with opioid prescriptions that have performance issues.
"It's a freaking nightmare," said Clyde McClellan, owner of American Mug & Stein pottery of East Liverpool, Ohio.
Challenges for Corporate Drug Tests
Nearly one year ago, the city of East Liverpool posted a picture on its Facebook account, which went viral, to raise awareness about the town's opioid crisis and the types of calls it is regularly getting:
He noted drug tests could cost his business between $65 and possibly $100 per applicant.
One Wichita, Kan.-based producer of building materials, part of CSW Industrials, said that after three months, 24 out of 35 new employees had been fired or quit due to substance abuse. After finding synthetic urine, they now have a policy where drug tests require observation.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine estimated that 40 percent of job applicants in the state either failed or refused a drug test when he reported the findings recently to Congress.
Prescription Opioids Complicate Corporate Drug Policy Enforcement
Companies cannot usually afford to wait months or years before intervening, said Greg DeLapp, chief executive officer of the Employee Assistance Professionals Association.
DeLapp advises clients to check on employees once they miss more than a week of work, citing a study by the Workers Compensation Research Institute that found in 26 states, more than half of workers who missed seven days of work had an opioid prescribed.
Zero-tolerance drug-free workplace policies do not typically apply to prescription opioid medications.
We do not have the right to ask anybody about their medical condition or what prescription they're on, of course not," said Markus Dietrich, global manager of employee assistance and worklife services at DuPont, which employs 46,000 people globally.
The opioid crisis affecting manufacturing, trucking and other labor forces is not limited to blue collar jobs. A report by the American Bar Association's Commission on Lawyer Assistance Programs found that abuse of prescription drugs among attorneys ranks is second only to alcohol.
Solutions to Address Opioid-Induced Labor Shortage
One metals fabricator in Eerie, Penn., said they work with international agencies to place addiction-free refugees, instead.
Smaller companies turn to recovery programs like OneLife Treatment in Edmond, Okla., that actively seek to place recovering substance abuse addicts in stable employment.
Tom L. Shupe, a senior manager of manufacturing operations, has started looking toward automation for metals fabrication processes that currently require six laborers but with a machine, would only require one. The opioid crisis he's faced in hiring has forced him to seek a machine alternative with assistance from engineering students at a local college.
You're going to see manufacturing jobs slowly going away for, if nothing else, [for the opioid crisis] alone," Shupe said.
Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen equated opioid use to a decline in labor participation rates measured by Federal surveys on the economy, known as the Beige Book. Employers mentioned finding applicants able to pass drug tests as a specific hiring barrier.

Today: [Matthew 3] Introducing John the Baptist: In Matthew 3 we meet John the Baptist, a near relation to Jesus, who precedes Him in public ministry calling the people to repentance and water baptism. Is it essential or necessary for believers in Jesus to be baptized? What if you were only sprinkled in baptism? Is that enough? What did John know about Jesus before Jesus met with him on the banks of the Jordan? These answers and more are considered in our study.
[Mat 3:1-17 KJV] 1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, 2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. 3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan, 6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins. 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: 9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to [our] father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. 10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and [with] fire: 12 Whose fan [is] in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. 13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. 14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? 15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer [it to be so] now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. 16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
In Matthew 3, we are introduced to John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea clothed in camel's hair, subsisting on a diet of locusts and wild honey. Locusts in the scripture are a type or metaphor of judgments for sin, and honey represents the prophetic word. The signal is clear – after 400 years of silence, God is making His voice known once again through the prophets. As a prophet, John the Baptist occupies a unique position. The rabbis do not consider John one of the 55 recognized Jewish prophets. He does not fit into the mold of a classic New Testament prophet either, in spite of the fact that he is the stereotypical picture of a prophet instantly recognizable by anyone with even a precursory knowledge of the word of God.
In Jesus' lifetime, the Jewish authorities clearly rejected the prophetic ministry of John the Baptist yet feared to say so publicly because they knew that the people heard him gladly (Mark 6:20). Even today, if you research Jewish attitudes toward John the Baptist, they will vociferously deny they had any idea who he was or that he lived at all, in spite of the fact that a non-believing Jewish historian at the time by the name of Josephus documented John's existence and his message to the first-century Jews. John's message still resonates today as an indictment of his own people for rejecting the Messiah they claimed to be anxiously and openly waiting upon.
John's message can be summed up in the one word emphasized in verse 2: "repent." The word repentance, as used by John, is very different from the term repent used in later Christian teaching. In verse 2, the word repent is "metanoia" which includes the meaning commanding the hearer to "abhor" or to "hate" evil. This is different than the word for repentance used in Hebrews 6:1 in the list of teachings that were considered the foundations of the Christian faith. The reference in Hebrews for repentance doesn't mean just to abhor, or to hate evil but to "abandon" evil. John preached to those who were not born again. Before you are born again, all you are capable of in terms of repentance is to receive a conviction of sins and make a decision to hate the evil, that once becoming a Christian by the new birth, you then have the grace to abandon altogether. This should confirm to us that as a Christian, life should not be comprised of an endless cycle of sinning and being forgiven. In Christ, we not only receive forgiveness of sin but grace to abandon the sin we were once held in slavery to.
In verse 7, we see that John's attitude toward the Pharisees and Sadducees echoes that of the teachings of Jesus. Jesus in his teachings was seen as the friend of publicans and sinners, but the religious authorities of the day were the objects of His most fierce denunciations because they would not enter the kingdom, nor would they allow anyone else to enter the kingdom by virtue of their own condemnatory practices, holding those they considered offenders under the heaviest burden of false guilt and religious condemnation. The Jews in Jesus' day felt that they were unique and special in the eyes of God to such a degree that no matter how far they strayed from the pure worship of Jehovah, their Jewish lineage would keep them in His favor. In essence, they believed they were too big to fail or be rejected by God. John declares to them that there was no boast to claim that Abraham was their father (v. 9), conjecturing that God could raise up of the stones on the ground children to Abraham. The message still stands today, respecting those of the Christian faith who believe that accepting Jesus as savior places them in an irrevocable posture in their position of favor in the kingdom. Think not that you have Christ to your savior (as an excuse for spiritual laxity) because God is able to raise up of these stones born again believers. Judaism of the first century was not too big to fail, and neither is modern Christian culture so necessary to the plan of God that He might not fold them up as a vesture, put them away as He did Judaism 2000 years ago and begin again with another people bringing forth the fruits of repentance that John the Baptist so eloquently called for.
The ministry and anointing on John the Baptist was an ax laid at the root of the prevailing, (Jewish) religious system of the day, the same system whose leaders in just a few, short years would collude with Rome in the rejection and crucifixion of their Messiah. The ax laid at the root of first-century Judaism worked its work and felled it as a tree in just a few short decades from the time of John when the city of Jerusalem was destroyed and the temple along with it in 70 AD. Under the looming specter of this prophesied destruction, John's message was "repent for the kingdom of God is at hand".
John's message of repentance was more than a call to consider the sinfulness of the heart reformation of his hearer's ways. There was along with this a call to open confession and the ritual of baptism as an outward sign of the inward profession of one's sinfulness and need of a savior. Thousands upon thousands found that John's message resonated with their hearts and came to the waters of Jordan to be cleansed in ritual baptism. Was this immersion in baptism or mere sprinkling? The Greek word used by John was "baptize" which very simply means "to immerse, to submerge". In spite of this, and regardless of the immense influence of the Evangelical movement over the years, sprinkling in baptism throughout Christian history has been the overwhelming choice of those professing Christ in their given Christian traditions. The deficiency of this alternative baptism is clear – God doesn't want to simply apply a dash or a splash of saving grace to our lives, He wants and intends to completely submerge and immerse us in Himself and bring us to a radically new life, a complete departure from everything that ever came before. Should you be baptized as a Christian? Absolutely. Should it be by immersion? Without question. Even today, 2000 years later baptism is greatly marginalized as something that one should be willing to do, but only as time and convenience permits. John's message was much more urgent.
In verse 13, we see John looking upon Jesus on the banks of the Jordan. Jesus has come to be baptized, but John absolutely had no intention of doing so. Jesus was his own cousin. He had known Jesus from infancy, and no doubt, even at a young age, realized that there was something very different and unusual about Him. Baptism was a baptism signifying the forgiveness and rejection of sin. Obviously, for John, what he knew about his kinsmen, Jesus rendered Him sinless in John's eyes. Nevertheless, Jesus prevails upon His cousin John to go ahead and baptize Him, to "fulfill all righteousness". Why was it necessary in Jesus' eyes for Him to be baptized? Because the husbandman must be the first partaker of the vine (2 Tim. 2:6). If we are to follow Jesus in baptism, then it must be then that Jesus likewise be baptized, demonstrating for us our identification with Him in the death, burial, and resurrection.
When Jesus is baptized, something unusual happens. The sky parts, the clouds flee away, and a supernatural visitation in the form of a dove descends from above and lights upon His head. This was not something that only Jesus or perhaps John witnessed. The people assembled and the whole crowd roundabout saw the appearance of the dove of the Holy Spirit and heard the voice of heaven saying, "this is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased". What did this mean? The language might be unfamiliar to us, but it was instantly recognizable to every person present. This was the same language that every father, having trained his son in the family business, would take him to the marketplace, lay his hands upon his son's shoulders and declare for all to hear "this is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased". From that point forward, every person hearing this knew that the son was authorized that day to do business for the Father, and everything the son did from that day on would be as if the father said it an did it. Jesus was the son of God from His birth when the Spirit of God came upon Mary, but this day He is announced as the son of God or set as a son of God, authorized to do the Father's business in the earth.

|My dad: What a STUD!!!
|Sophia watching daddy open his Father's Day Card we made for him!
|Sophia and Mommy got crafty (Thanks Disney Family Fun magazine for the idea for the card!)
I think it turned out quite nicely!
|Sophia's note to her father ... in her wording! :)
|Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars! (Recipe included below)
Another reason to be so grateful is for my wonderful father-in-law! No wonder my husband turned out the way he did ... he had a great role model in his father, Whitney! Whitney has the character of GOLD and incredible humility! He taught my husband invaluable lessons, those of which Nate has kept near to him all the years of his life! Sophia loves spending time with her grandpa! He knows just the way to make her laugh and she adores playing piano with him!!
|Nate, Sophia, and his parents before the start of the Carmel Mini-Marathon last weekend
Reflecting upon this Father's Day, we have so much to be thankful for!! Godly men in our lives to help direct, shape, and mold us .... Thanks LORD for this incredible blessing!!
Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars (= 100% AMAZINGNESS)
3/4 cup butter, melted (I half-ed the recipe and only ended up having 1 tbsp of butter and that worked fine, will use only a tiny bit when I make it again and it saves tons on the fat)
2 cups of gluten free crushed up animal crackers (I used Mi-del arrowroot GF cookies, you could use any cookie if it didn't need to be GF)
1 1/2 cup of confectioners' sugar
1 cup PB (I used the Organic Smuckers Creamy -- when buying PB, try your best to avoid those with hydrogenated oils ... almost all your mainstream PB's have them ... you have to read the label and look at it. Good peanut butter should only have listed as its ingredients: PEANUTS and SALT.
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup PB
1. In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, animal cracker crumbs, confectioners' sugar and 1 cup PB until well blended. Pour and spread evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9x9 pan.
2. Put in freezer for about 15 min to harden.
3. In the microwave (or stove top) melt the choc chips and the 1/4 cup PB, stirring every 30-45 sec or so. Once the choc/pb are combined and melted, pour over the top of the PB mixture in the 9x9 pan. Spread the choc so it covers the top evenly. Set it back in the fridge for 20 min, then serve.
Keep refrigerated so they retain shape! ENJOY!

Viking Runecraft Slot Review
Viking Runecraft - an unusual gaming machine about the Vikings, which was released by the famous company Play'n GO. It does not even look much like video slots, because it has a non-standard interface and an original payout system. Here you need to collect a continuous chain of five or more stones, touching each other horizontally or vertically.
Also in the online game are available jokers, a system of repeated spins, several levels with additional bonuses and other interesting features. Particularly fascinating were the topical prize functions with the participation of Scandinavian gods.
All details compared to the Ragnarok bonus
All of the above keep you playing. It's so easy to get lost in the company of these great norse gods, that it's good to remind yourself, every once in a while, that the wins aren't actually that impressive in the base game.
Yet, this high volatility slot machine impressed us by the fact that not only didn't we care, but just when we were thinking of leaving, it gave us such a blazing win (of over 100 times our bet) that we were back to loving every spin.

Casumo is a unique experience. I love the fact that I can earn points that can offer more bonuses just by playing my favourite games. Overall, the casino is enjoyable and the slot games that are offered are entertaining. The adventure aspect is one that is unique and I have found it to be more rewarding than standard loyalty programs found at other casino sites. Unfortunately, there are very few table and card games at this casino site.April 09, 2017 pm30 12:012017-04-09
Safe and secure. Good selection of games. Good design. Good chat support.April 21, 2017 am30 03:012017-04-21
I love this place - it's look is so friendly and adorable. Everything is made really clear and I feel is about as fair to the player as any casino can get. They are really generous with free spins etc and I love the idea of "levelling up" and gaining little trophies along the way. Plus they are the only casino I've found that has all the slots I enjoy. I've just made my first withdrawal so will be interested to see how easily that goes but this may be my new go to place in the future.May 10, 2017 pm31 16:162017-05-10
Great selection of games. One of few casinos with a good range of Novomatics slots. Overall a good site and casino.May 10, 2017 pm31 16:162017-05-10

Web designers and developers are amazing at what they do. They can build a user experience that is exactly what the client asks for. Some clients have such a strong understanding of what they want to say that they can drive the website development process. However, we've had an influx of clients that have changed web companies, not because they didn't get what they wanted, but because they did!
Which begs the question - why are you giving your customer what they want?
What the client asks for
So, your client has provided a clear brief and even has their content ready. While this sounds like the perfect client there is something that they are missing. While they are an expert in everything that they do, they are reaching out to their web designer to give them that little bit more. The clients that are coming to us to change web designers are all saying the same thing. "We just thought that the designer would have taken our ideas and grown them in a way we couldn't have". When this doesn't happen, even though you provided them with a perfectly on-brief website they feel let down.
Let's think about from a customers perspective. When you go to buy a big ticket item (a consumer product, for example), though you may have researched it to death, you still expect the salesperson to be able to enlighten you to the things that you haven't actually considered that aren't listed on the features document. This is the same, if not ten times more important, when developing their website. The customer knows on the surface what a website should look like, but after shine of the launch has faded, if it doesn't do what they need, then it's a huge waste of their money and time.
Ask better questions
The first step to finding out how to best guide your client is to ask better questions. Simply educating them on things like loading speed, reporting and hosting isn't enough to add value. Ask them questions. "Do you have a marketing plan?" "Who will be updating the website once it's live?" "What is your business plan over the next five years?" Ask these questions, then listen.
Then, ask even more questions.
If you are building a Content Management System (CMS - something that allows the end user to edit their website without needing a knowledge of code) and you don't ask who will be using it, for example, then it is it a good idea? Further questions, such as "do you have time to edit it?", "are you excited at the thought of writing your own content", or "do you know how to source and edit imagery to fit your brand?". The idea of being able to edit their own site is fantastic, but when they struggle to find the time or inclination to do this, who will help them pick up the pieces? If you don't have this support in place, they will leave you.
Don't get technical
It's natural to want to start designing the site in your head at that first meeting. The shopping list that you produce of plug-ins, templates, API's and CMS solutions is exciting, and it's how you price your build, however if you don't clearly explain what each functionality is to the client, and how it will help them achieve their goals then you will be faced with problems down the track. Read: they will leave you!
Give them options from the start
Now you've got your client fully versed in what they really need, fill in all the gaps of what owning a website entails. Explain to them about Google Analytics, Search Engine Optimisation, blogging, sitemap submissions, and keywords. Then offer them options for managing this. Even if they don't want to pay for it up front, once they've taken their new website for a whirl, or their rankings drop, they will better understand these offerings. If you don't, someone else will. Then, you guessed it, they will leave you.
You're not selling them a car
When someone buys a car, they already know how to drive. They know the road rules and they understand most of the features of a car: Safety, performance, economy etc. They know it's not something that will magically transport them from A to B. They know that effort is required to get to their destination. But when it comes to websites this is the exact thing they think. They think that a website will magically increase their business and ticks all their marketing needs with one fell swoop.
If you are assuming that your client thinks otherwise, even if they have had a website before, then you need to think again. Clients won't tell you what they don't know, it's your job to find that out. The crux of it is, you shouldn't give your client what they want, because they don't know what they need! They don't. Assuming anything less means that, they will leave you.

Five months ago I made the only move I could. At 90 years of age, my grandfather's health was diminishing rapidly following his second back surgery. So, I packed up my life (for quite literally the 400th time in my adult life) and moved in with him to be his full time carer.
My decision was not made lightly; I know very well this isn't going to be easy and not everyone was supportive of my choice. Still, the gratefulness on my grandfather's face the day I moved in washed away any doubts I may have had.
I am at the age where most of my peer's grandparents are in the same situation of requiring full or part time care. Could I give you the name of someone else around my age doing the same thing for thier grandparents? *crickets chirping..tumble weed blowing by*
Ok yes, Italians do tend to look after their elderly well, but the look on some people's faces when I tell them that I would choose to give so much of my time for this 90 year old man who is grumpier more often than he is happy and who hasn't used the words please and thank-you since my grandmother passed in 1993, on top of running three businesses, has made me go check in the mirror for snakes growing out of my hair or horns sprouting from my forehead.
This choice, for me, was the only one I could make and still sleep at night. It's the reason why the elderly are treated like gold in all my salons. They deserve our kindness, patience, and respect. They are our modern historians, our wealth of knowledge, and the back bone of our country. They are where we came from and where we are going to.
I know a common sentiment, regrettably, in the hairdressing industry is that doing "little old lady sets" are waste of time and are not profitable. Which is just a rubbish thing to think. They are an opportunity to connect with someone who has seen and experienced far more than ourselves, to learn, and make someone smile who has probably been yearning for some human contact in their later years. I do their hair and make them feel gorgeous, and I see a glimpse of the young woman they once were. They walk out feeling confident and remembering that they are still glamourous and worthy of respect.
For me, I'm in this industry to make people happy and remind them to love themselves, which is something the business woman in me will never lose sight of.
Jennie you are wonderful for taking care of your nonno. You are an angel! You are the bright light shining in your nonno's eyes. I'm sure if he doesn't say it to you he would be thinking how eternally grateful he is to have a sweet caring beautiful granddaughter like you to take care of him. God bless you and your nonno and also your supportive partner Andrew. Xx

Mbadi, Junet call out William Ruto over hunger remark
Thursday March 21 2019
Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) lawmakers want President Uhuru Kenyatta to initiate an urgent response to mitigate drought affecting 17 counties, as they criticised his deputy over recent remarks on the issue.
National Assembly Minority Leader John Mbadi criticised Deputy President William Ruto for claiming that no human life has been lost due to starvation.
"Kenyans are not specimens to die in the affected areas so that those in authority [may] know it is hunger that has killed them. The more he continues to talk on national issues, the more he annoys us," he said.
Suna East MP Junet Mohammed questioned why Kenyans are starving yet there is enough food, also terming Dr Ruto's remarks as unfortunate.
"We have listened patiently to comments by senior government officials on this grave matter, and we do not see the kind of seriousness we expect to see from their statements. By saying that the news that people have died is 'fake', yet government officials on the ground have confirmed [reports of death to be true], is careless, irresponsible and insensitive," Mr Mohammed said on Thursday.
The affected counties are Wajir, Tana River, West Pokot, Tharaka Nithi, Samburu, Nyeri, Marsabit, Laikipia, Mandera, Lamu, Kitui, Kilifi, Isiolo, Garissa, Embu, Baringo and Turkana.
The Kenya Red Cross is seeking about Sh800 million to help more than one million people facing hunger. Secretary-General Abbas Gullet said people have died from famine and drought.
Dr Ruto on Wednesday said reports from the media and local leaders that about 21 Kenyans have died of hunger are false.
He went further to say that the chiefs would be summoned for questioning, something that has displeased the ODM leaders. He said the only problem blighting the country is food distribution, not food crisis.
To tackle the issue, he said the national and county governments are working together to intensify food distribution.
"There is a lot of fake news about what is happening. We have been told that 11 people have died, but that is not true. No one has died as a result of the drought; and we are working round the clock to ensure that no one dies of hunger," he said in Mombasa during the Inter-professional Summit.
He said about Sh1.4 billion was disbursed for drought response in February, March and April 2019.

Self Catering in Herefordshire - Preston-on-Wye
Booking through:
01244 352 197
Sleeps a maximum of: 4
Pricing From: £350.00
Sleeping up to six people in two bedrooms, this quality detached cottage is on the edge of Preston-on-Wye in Herefordshire.
Point Cottage, a detached property on the outskirts of Preston-on-Wye, is a quality character cottage in a countryside location. The two bedrooms - a king-size double and a twin - are comfortable and welcoming. There is a family bathroom on the ground floor.
The sitting room has a sofabed, there is a dining room and a fitted kitchen, and the property benefits from exposed beams and wall timbers throughout. Outside there is off road parking for 3 cars, a graveled front area and an enclosed lawned garden. Hereford, Hay-on-Wye, the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons can all be enjoyed from this lovely property, making Point Cottage an ideal base for families, friends or couples.
Excellent standard of accomodation, lovely location
We have just returned from a relaxing week at Point Cottage which we found to be very comfortable, relaxing and well equipped. Large grassed garden ideal for dogs and children playing plus the bonus of a network of bridleways and footpaths from the door to enjoy traffic free walking. The cottage is well equipped with the bonus of a freezer in the garden building, nearest local store is 3 miles away in Madley and there are a couple of supermarkets within 8 miles in Hereford. This is a beautiful part of the UK, friendly villagers, good local pub within a 10 min walk of the cottage. WIFI is reliable and a good bonus. The cottage has been beautifully restored with exposed beams and timbers (but with the bonus of no low ceilings)! Very clean cottage, we will return.
Wonderfully Renovated. Clinically Clean. Perfect Location for peace, quiet and touring
Point Cottage is a real gem. Located between Hereford and Hay, off the beaten track but still easy to get to. On arrival the first thing you notice is the pure bliss of solitude apart from the sheep, birds and the sound of distant farm machinery. There were 5 of us, 2 adults and 3 kids so sleeping arrangements were 1 double room, 1 twin room and a sofa bed downstairs for the grumpy teenager, perfect. This cottage is obviously popular with Dog owners as per the reviews, but there is not a single trace of dogs having been there, it's that clean and fresh. Plenty of supplies in the lovely well equipped kitchen. Dining room and living room extremely cosy and warm. Downstairs Bathroom with shower is very clean and good water pressure in shower. Wi-Fi for the techies and teens. On a summers evening it was pure heaven sitting outside the house having a local ale and just looking up into the pitch black sky and viewing the stars. Something we don't get here in the South East. There really isn't a down side to staying at Point Cottage and I haven't even pointed out the great price for booking.
Well appointed feel good cottage break
My wife & I recently stayed at Point Cottage. Really impressed with its traditionalist appearance and how well appointed it was together with the internal refurbishment. Our dog loved it there and it was a great location for exploring the Wye valley. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage and in our humble opinion it was great value.
Wonderful cottage and very dog friendly
What a wonderful garden and great for countryside walks for the dogs The cottage was perfect to get away for a complete rest Had wonderful weather
A lovely little cottage with plenty of land for our two dogs, there were great walks, a very good pub just down the road and very friendly people.

Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots - 12/3/17 NFL Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Photo by USA TODAY Sports
New England Patriots (9-2) at Buffalo Bills (6-5)
NFL Football: Sunday, December 3, 2017 at 1:00 pm (New Era Field)

We have an AFC East showdown on tap as the New England Patriots head to New Era Field to take on the Buffalo Bills in week 13 NFL action.
The New England Patriots will try to add to their current 7 game winning streak, sitting at 9-2 this season after a 35-17 win over Miami in their last outing. Tom Brady threw for 227 yards, 4 touchdowns and an interception on 18 of 28 passing, while Dion Lewis led the Pats with 112 rushing yards on 15 carries. Rex Burkhead added 50 rushing yards and a touchdown on 13 carries, while Brandin Cooks led the team with 83 yards and a touchdown on 6 catches. Rob Gronkowski came 2nd with 82 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 5 catches, while Burkhead added a 2nd touchdown receiving out of the backfield. The Patriots defense was as busy as it's ever been, combining for 7 sacks, a pair of interceptions and a pair of forced fumbles, one of which was recovered, and all while holding Miami to just 221 yards of total offense and a 2 for 11 mark on 3rd down in the win.
The Buffalo Bills will look for another win to keep their playoff hopes alive after a 16-10 win over Kansas City in their last outing brought the Bills to 6-5 this season. Tyrod Taylor threw for 183 yards and a touchdown on 19 of 29 passing, while LeSean McCoy led the Buffalo ground attack with 49 yards on 22 carries. Charles Clay led the team with 60 receiving yards on 4 catches, while Zay Jones added a touchdown grab and McCoy chipped in 4 catches of his own out of the backfield. On defense, the Bills combined for a pair of sacks and an interception, all while stifling the Chiefs to the tune of 236 yards of total offense and a 2 for 11 mark on 3rd down in the win.
New England is 12-2 ATS in their last 14 road games and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 5-2 in their last 7 games overall. Buffalo is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 division matchups and 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 home games while the over is 8-3 in their last 11 games against a team with a winning record. New England is 11-2 ATS in the last 13 meetings between these two teams in Buffalo.
To be perfectly honest, I'm surprised we are seeing such a drastic drop from the Patriots last game where they were 17-point favorites. I know the Bills are still in the playoff race and Buffalo's defense suffocated the Chiefs. But Tom Brady has a career record of 26-3 against the Bills, including double digit wins in 8 of the last 11 meetings. I'll gladly take anything in single digits, so I'll lay the points with New England in one of my more confident plays of the week.

On July 27, 2008, Prasant Radhakrishnan performed to a packed and appreciative audience at the Sir Mutha Venkatasubba Rao Concert Hall on Harrington Road.
One week later, on August 3, he repeated his impressive performance at the Sri Parvathi Hall on Eldams Road. This young saxophonist has been showcasing his talent and skills for quite some time now, and while he plays the saxophone—an instrument that gets automatically associated with jazz—his performance was in Carnatic music.
The saxophone is not a very popular instrument in India and 24-year-old Radhakrishnan wonders at this lack of awareness.
While jazz isn't mainstream music, it did enjoy a certain amount of popularity in the '60s and the '70s. However, in the past 15 to 20 years, it has been sidelined, and has been, much to Radhakrishnan's chagrin, slotted with less complex styles of music like pop and rock, further adding to people's misunderstanding of jazz.
"Jazz is, in fact, very similar to Carnatic music, in that it takes years of rigorous training to become decent at it, because of how complex it is," he says.
Born and brought up in the US, Radhakrishnan was introduced to the saxophone in his school band, and continued to fiddle with it in his spare time.
It was then that he met someone who changed his life. Radhakrishnan was only 13 when Padmashri Kadri Gopalnath took him under his wing.
After teaching Radhakrishnan a few ragas to test his ability, Gopalnath offered to train him regularly. Most of Radhakrishnan's subsequent summer months were then spent at his master's gurukulam in Mangalore, learning to play the instrument, learning about music, and about life.
While Radhakrishnan says he knew nothing about Carnatic traditions until he met Gopalnath, he learned quickly. In fact, from 1998 onwards, barely a year after their first meeting, he began accompanying Gopalnath in concerts, sometimes flying down to Chennai twice a year—once during the summer, and again during the music season in December.
"The music season in Chennai is intense," Radhakrishnan says. "It's packed with so many concerts and programmes!" This has led him, in recent years, to being very careful while choosing his concerts.
"I only perform with people I want to perform with. I also try not to get coerced into playing what others want me to play. I need to feel it, to want to play it, for the performance to be any good."
Since he started performing in 1998, Radhakrishnan's rise has been meteoric. In 2000, at the age of 17, Radhakrishnan released his first album, Swara Sudha.
This critically acclaimed repertoire included some of the most respected names in Carnatic music. Four years and much training later, he released his second album, Duality.
Applauded by fans and critics alike, it stood out for its style innovations, and unveiled the creative mind behind the musician's talent. Last year, he released East Facing, his third rendition. "I've grown more relaxed in my style," he says, of his development over the years.
Radhakrishnan also founded the group Vidya in 2005, after graduation from the University of Southern California, where he studied jazz. A three-member ensemble, it also includes David Ewell on the bass and Sameer Gupta on the drums. Vidya presents the ultimate in world musical fusion, blending jazz and Carnatic styles seamlessly and bringing out rich and complex compositions highlighted by their melodic brilliance.
Besides the saxophone, Radhakrishnan also plays the piano, although he modestly claims: "I just use it for composing. I don't really play it very well."
Besides devouring Carnatic music in his spare time, apart from jazz now and then, Radhakrishnan lists Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane among his biggest inspirations.
After performing across the world, in Japan, India all over North America, in front of students, critics and fans alike, Radhakrishnan's take on his audiences is mature.
"I want to be able to communicate directly with the listeners, and build a rapport with them. This will happen only when I put my heart into the performance," he says. "I want to bring a little bit of what I am into my music."
He elaborates on the importance of interpreting the audience, and playing compositions that can carry them along for the experience.
"In this respect, I have learnt a lot from how violinist Lalgudi Jayaraman plays in his concerts."
Radhakrishnan has now dedicated his life to the pursuit of musical excellence. "I feel some responsibility in making sure the use of this instrument in Carnatic music doesn't die out," he says.
Information and updates on Radhakrishnan's performances can be found at his website www.prasantmusic. com.
