Reviewed by Peter Wallace (Independent Scholar, South Bend, Indiana)

The Civil War: Mother of Theological Profundity?
Mark A. Noll reminds us that war has "sometimes been the mother of theological profundity" (p. 14). But he argues that this is not true of the American Civil War. He points to the fecundity of other wars, citing such examples as Augustine's City of God (ca. 422), prompted by the sack of Rome in 409; Thomas Aquinas's engagement with ideological and military conflicts with Islam in the thirteenth century; John Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion (1559), which was published in response to "conditions created by the French civil wars of the mid-sixteenth century" (p. 14); and Karl Barth's dialectical theology, which emerged from the ruins of World War I. But the Civil War produced no such creative, theological reflection. In his introduction, Noll concludes that "this book is an effort to explain why" (p. 16).
Most treatments of the relationship between the Civil War and intellectual life have focused on those who abandoned traditional religious convictions. As examples, Noll cites George M. Frederickson's The Inner Civil War: Modern Intellectuals and the Crisis of the Union (1965) and Anne C. Rose's Victorian America and the Civil War (1992). Noll wants to understand what happened to the far larger body of evangelical Christians for whom the Civil War did not lead to a crisis of faith, but rather, as he argues, a crisis of biblical interpretation. Indeed, Noll claims that his main purpose "is to show how and why the cultural conflict that led to such a crisis for the nation also constituted a crisis for theology" (p. 6). Before the Civil War, evangelicals (and the politicians who wished for their votes) regularly cited the Bible in support of their policies and convictions. After the Civil War, the Bible remained the source of private devotion, but Noll claims that its public role was severely limited. Noll persuasively argues that the central issue in this crisis was the question of "the Bible and slavery," but also points out that a second issue developed over the question of trying to understand God's purpose in providence.
In his introductory chapter, Noll lays out the arguments of four leading preachers in the winter of 1860-61: Henry Ward Beecher, an abolitionist Congregational minister in Brooklyn; James Henley Thornwell, an Old School Presbyterian in South Carolina who defended slavery from scripture; Henry Van Dyke, an anti-abolitionist pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn; and Rabbi Morris J. Raphall of the Jewish Synagogue of New York City who defended the institution of slavery without approving the particular practice of slavery in the American South. All of these preachers agreed that the Bible was the supreme authority for faith and practice, but they could not agree on what the Bible actually said regarding American slavery.
Chapter 2 presents the "Historical Contexts" of antebellum evangelicalism. Noll briefly sketches the main arguments of his America's God: From Jonathan Edwards to Abraham Lincoln (2002), explaining the influence of "common sense" philosophy, republicanism, and evangelical Protestantism. He demonstrates that by 1860 "evangelical Protestants, who believed that the Bible was true and who trusted their own interpretations of Scripture above all other religious authorities, constituted the nation's most influential cultural force. By 1860 religion had reached a higher point of public influence than at any previous time in American history" (p. 28).
In the next chapter, "The Crisis over the Bible," Noll explicates the biblical debates over slavery, especially by utilizing an 1844-45 debate between Francis Wayland and Richard Fuller. The failure of the theologians to resolve their differences meant that "it was left to those consummate theologians, the Reverend Doctors Ulysses S. Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman, to decide what in fact the Bible actually meant" (p. 50).
As the title of chapter 4 points out, quoting Philip Schaff, "The negro question lies far deeper than the slavery question." But, as Noll observes, very few people considered the racial question as a significant matter. Only a handful of writers considered the possibility that the biblical defense of slavery would logically result in endorsing white slavery as well as black slavery. Noll engages with a variety of writers who sought to take scriptural teachings regarding slavery seriously and apply them in creative ways to the American South.
The advent of the war produced what Noll calls "The Crisis over Providence" in chapter 5. Evangelical Christians were convinced that God governed all events of history, but differed widely in their interpretations of what God was doing in history. Thornwell was convinced that God would defend the Confederacy, while Horace Bushnell insisted that God was on the side of the Union. Noll concludes by suggesting that the problem was not their trust in providence (a doctrine common to all traditional Christians), but "trust in providence so narrowly defined by the republican, covenantal, commonsensical, Enlightenment, and--above all--nationalistic categories that Protestant evangelicals had so boldly appropriated with such galvanizing effects in the early decades of the nineteenth century" (p. 94).
Perhaps the most enlightening two chapters are the last two. In "Opinions of Protestants Abroad," Noll surveys comments from European Protestants who usually opposed slavery, but did not necessarily support the Union. Noll points to a German Protestant editor who viewed the dissolution of the Union as the natural result of the fragmentation of American churches. Many Europeans viewed the Civil War as demonstrating the folly of republicanism. Since European Protestants had never embraced the democratic, commonsense approach to reading the Bible, they found much that was objectionable both in Northern and Southern evangelicalism.
Likewise, in "Catholic Viewpoints," Noll examines both American and foreign Roman Catholic commentary on slavery and the Civil War. "They suggested that the Protestant embrace of unfettered economic freedom actually damaged Christianity," and argued that "Protestant American individualism" had resulted in the confusion over the Bible's teaching on slavery (p. 125). Due to strong anti-Catholic tendencies in antebellum culture, American Catholics tended to stay on the sidelines in debates over slavery, but Noll points out that foreign Catholics were often more vocal. Not surprisingly, many conservative Catholics believed that the solution was for Americans to accept "the magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church to guide interpretation of the Bible" (p. 155).
Noll concludes with a "Retrospect and Prospect" in which he suggests that the postwar years revealed two continuing problems which emerged from the Civil War--"the enduring reality of racism" and "the expansion of consumer capitalism" (p. 159). But unlike the antebellum era, evangelical Protestants in the Gilded Age had little to say about social issues. "The theology that had risen to preeminence in the early nineteenth century continued to work effectively for vast multitudes in private; but because of its public failure during the war, it had little to offer American society more generally in the decades that followed the war" (p. 160). The end result was an "implicit national agreement not to base public policy of any consequence on interpretations of Scripture" (p. 161), a result that Noll thinks has had both positive and negative effects on both the nation and the churches.
This book should provide the stimulus for further studies of theology and the Civil War. The chapters on European Protestant and Catholic reactions are immensely useful, and provide an external perspective on slavery and the Civil War which begs for further exploration. In a book of this length one cannot expect full treatment of every topic, so readers should not be disappointed at Noll's selectivity of sources. But, while it may be true that the 1845 Wayland and Fuller debates were one of the last "serious one-on-one debates" over slavery (p. 36-37), it should be pointed out that George Armstrong and Cortlandt Van Rensselaer engaged in a similar debate as late as 1857-58 in the Presbyterian Magazine, maintaining a remarkably civil tone at a time when most religious periodicals absolutely refused to allow discussion of slavery in their pages for fear of the virulence that almost invariably resulted.[1]
The major problem with the book is that the evidence of the book does not support its conclusions. Noll claims that the Civil War did not produce theological profundity. But the evidence of the book points in the opposite direction. If the sack of Rome helped produce Augustine's City of God over the next twenty years, and if World War I contributed to Barth's theological development (which only emerged fully in the 1930s), then we should not expect to see the fruits of theological reflection emerging from the Civil War until the 1870s and 1880s--the decades that witnessed the emergence of liberal Protestantism. If Noll is correct, as I think he is, regarding the crisis of biblical interpretation over slavery, then the theological creativity that we should expect to follow the Civil War is how to maintain a sort of Christianity that no longer requires a literal, commonsense form of biblical interpretation. And that is precisely what happens!
In light of Noll's thesis, it would be interesting to see how Charles D. Cashdollar's The Transformation of Theology, 1830-1890 (1989) would read differently if he had considered the impact of the Civil War on the reception of positivism in America. Cashdollar uses 1865 as the watershed year--but that is because of the publication of John Stuart Mill's Auguste Comte and Positivism (1865). Noll's evidence suggests that for Americans, 1865 also signaled a watershed in biblical interpretation and public theology.
Likewise, it is interesting to reread William R. Hutchison's The Modernist Impulse in American Protestantism (1992) in light of Noll's work. Certainly the roots of theological modernism can be found long before the Civil War, but Hutchison's narrative indicates that it was only in the decade immediately after the war that theological modernism took root, and yet Hutchison never mentions the war. Is it possible that the event which shook America to the core of its identity really had no effect on the development of the theologians and pastors who grew up with the daily memory of the slaughter of their brothers and their parishioners?
Could it be that the distinctively American form of theological modernism was the fruit of the Civil War? The crisis of biblical interpretation and providence of the 1860s produced a generation of theologians and pastors who could no longer affirm the historic confessions of their fathers. In short, in the wake of the Civil War, American evangelicals came to the conclusion that they could no longer insist upon their own interpretations of scripture--and so embraced a theology of tolerance and love in which all theological statements were culturally relative.

How can you bring the power of your database to users via the web browser? How can you bring the power of a web experience to MS Access desktop forms? In this session we'll look at several ways deploy solutions that are available to any user via responsive web application while still having the familiarity of MS Access desktop for your power users. We'll discuss the pros and cons of various approaches (file server front-end/back-end, Office 365, Amazon RDS) and some live case studies that include deployment, security, and maintenance. We'll also look at ways to revamp your existing MS Access applications to give users a more web-like experience on the desktop.
Brandon has been working with Access since 2.0, founding OpenGate Software in 2001 to offer MS Access tools that streamline development and make it easier for general business users to create powerful database applications without years of experience.

Pinky's Fandance - Robert Romanus
Several years ago I had the opportunity of meeting Robert Romanus at the Hollywood Show. He was a super cool guy.
As I hadn't seen him since then, I was stoked we'd be doing a show with him. Still awesome!

Permacel, part of the Johnson & Johnson company, invented duct tape for use during World War II. This duct tape was useful for fixing exterior truck damage, sealing containers and making other repairs during the war. After the war, it became popular among civilians as well.
Duct tape was created using medical tape with polycoat adhesive to give the tape more advanced sticking properties. The tape was then coated with polyethylene and attached to cloth for both flexibility and strength. Duct tape was army green during the war, but when it was mass-produced commercially, it was released in gray. The brand name Duck Tape was created by Manco, Inc. and became very popular for making duct tape in various colors.

Validate 2 number fields as alternative to a vtype
This post shows you how you can validate 2 number fields (Ext.form.field.Number) in an Ext JS (4) form. Usually this is done with a vtype (Ext.form.field.VTypes), but this can more easily be done with the "validator" config setting.
The validator triggers a function that comes with 2 parameters: the number field itself (object) and the raw value. It is a pitty that Sencha didn't think of adding the parent/form as well. I have put a working sample in JSFiddle. To get the first field in a variable, I have used:
var form = this.up('form');
var field1 = form.down('#Field1');
Simply using: var field1 = this.up('#Field1') doesn't give any results!
Two number fields in a form and the second field (Field Two) has to be equal or smaller than the first field (Field One).

Ghost imaging produced by pseudothermal light is commonly obtained by correlating the intensities of two separate beams, neither of which conveys information about the shape of the object to be imaged. The single-beam experiment discussed here, while not exploitable for the practical purpose of reconstructing the shape of a real mask, uses the same mathematical machinery as two-beam experiments; it also suggests that image retrieval by classical light ghost imaging is only a product of normal signal processing and does not involve any "ghost". In addition, the single-beam setup allows simpler calibration procedures in systematic investigations of the efficiency of coincidence imaging.

The Sun have a habit of making themselves look ridiculous, but this latest idea may be one of their worst yet.
The newspaper are currently running a 'Bust in Britain' competition (because of course they are) and decided it'd be a great idea to encourage women to send in some snaps of their cleavage for a chance of winning £1,000 and a photoshoot.
'What could possibly go wrong?' the social media editor could no doubt be heard exclaiming in the office as he clicked post on the tweet.
Got some front? Share your breast cleavage snaps for chance to win £1k https://t.co/58YdhGAtYl pic.twitter.com/rJaINcjXHN

Well, quite a lot, given that a lot of people already hate The Sun and find the whole 'boobs sells papers' thing to be a pretty controversial sales tactic.
Maybe The Sun are just blissfully unaware how social media works, but Twitter users were predictably quick to troll the newspaper and send in some ridiculous photos in the hopes they might be considered for the prestigious competition.
It's safe to say, they probably weren't expecting responses like these…

I spent all of last week in New York City. I walked and walked, and ate great food, and went to a movie at my old neighborhood theater, and saw some of my favorite New York-based friends who entered my life years ago. Sorry I didn't have time to see everyone!
While I had fabulous time, this wasn't exactly a vacation. The purpose of the trip was to attend the NYC Fotoworks Review and the Palm Springs Portfolio Review at PhotoPlus. Over the course of five days, I met with 31 reviewers from the photography industry (gallery and museum curators, magazine photo editors, art buyers from advertising agencies, book publishers, consultants, and agents).
I showed my commercial and editorial work as well as my personal projects, and got some awesome feedback. For those who have not been to a review, they are a great way to see several potential clients in a concentrated amount of time. You end up paying for it, but I truly think it's worth it. One of the best perks about attending one of these events, is that it gives you a deadline. Knowing I was going to be attending these two reviews gave me a jump start to creating a new portfolio book (see image above- thank you Jace Graf of Cloverleaf Studios), a new logo (this time simpler), and a new, more mobile-friendly website. It was a lot of work, and I'm glad to be on the other side of it.
A big thank you to all of my reviewers from last week for your valuable feedback and thank you to New York City for providing good, reel, grungy, beautiful energy.


text: We are finally here! Fall! It's so hard to believe the summer is already fading, but hopefully these new cozy layers will help you get excited for cooler air. We will officially launch the lookbook online tonight at Midnight, but you can get first dibs in person tonight! We are having a little happy hour to celebrate the new collection at Gallery 360 in southwest Minneapolis from 6-8. Hope to see you there! XO

Tips to Become a Better Eagle Lake Walleye Angler
By Gord Bastable and Joe "the Professor" Moskal
Vermilion Bay Lodge, Ontario, Canada
A Little Perspective…
Eagle Lake offers very good walleye fishing, but they seldom "jump into the boat". Catching fish requires that you locate them and then present your lure or bait so that it gets bit. Here are a few basic things to consider that will make your fishing more effective.
- Have an open mind. Don't rely on your old habits and techniques exclusively.
- Use your sonar unit! The camp boats are equipped with locators that are set up to help you find structure such as weeds, rocks and drop-offs that may hold fish. The locator will also mark schools of baitfish and individual walleye in deeper water (15 feet+). This tool is indispensable. Learn how to use it well and you're going to be rewarded with more fish. Ask for help if you are unsure of how to interpret what it is showing.
- Boat control is essential. Keeping the bait in the right location, and at the right speed and depth, is the only way to consistently catch fish. Use your motor, the wind or both to control the position of your boat. Use your lake map to record notes on successful locations, depths and speed to remind you of what brought about success.
- Food & comfort are two prime concerns of the walleye. Seasonal variations such as water temperature and weed growth dictate where the food source and the walleye will be found. As well, daily variations such as weather, wind and amount of daylight all play a role in where the walleye can be located and caught. Be aware of the subtle changes happening around you. Try to identify patterns that produce fish. But remember, walleye will adapt their behaviour in order to take advantage of favourable conditions. Just because you catch some in the weeds doesn't mean that it's only a "weed bite". Try different locations at different times of day. Walleyes often are moving around during the course of the day. If you're not getting bites, do something different.
- Walleyes are effective predators because their eyesight gives them a superior advantage for chasing down food in low-light conditions. That's why it's to your benefit to be on the water early and late in the day. Put the odds in your favour. On some days, these are the only periods a decent bite will occur. Be ready for it.
- Tune-up your equipment before you arrive. Make sure that your rods and reels work properly. If the line is not in excellent condition, replace it. And sharpen those lure hooks. It's your equipment that connects you to the fish. Have you ever noticed that fish, especially big fish, love faulty equipment? (NOTE: VBL is located a short drive away from Bobby's Corner, an outstanding tackle and bait shop that carries anything you need to replace.) Also, make sure that you can effectively tie a knot that holds, such as the Uni-Knot, Improved Clinch or Palomar Knots. Walleyes simply love poorly tied knots, just slightly less than faulty equipment, though.
- Above all, don't be embarrassed to ask for advice! We all have something to learn about walleye fishing, and many guests can offer valuable tips based on real knowledge of Eagle Lake. Use the Sunday night fish fry and interactions at the lodge with your host and other guests to share and receive fishing information. Ask about locations, water depths and lure speeds/colors that are producing fish. And talk to Gord before you head out on the water. Make it your business to really understand what's working to reduce sheer guesswork and wasted fishing time. Don't let yourself (and your partner) spend the first few days of your vacation fooling with unproductive methods.
Methods That Will Catch Walleye on Eagle Lake
There are many methods for catching walleye. This article will cover three good ones for Eagle. Each has a different purpose and requires different skill and equipment. Remember, the better you become at each one of these, the more fish, and bigger fish, you're going to catch. So, we suggest that you use your stay at Vermilion Bay Lodge, in part, to intentionally become a better angler. Challenge yourself to make it more than just another fishing trip. After all, you're going to be on outstanding walleye water.
If you're fishing with a partner, talk about what you're each interested in and then work together on the methods. Be aware that the methods are not compatible for simultaneous use. For example, one of you should not be jigging while the other is trolling. Agree upon a method and stick with it until change is deemed desirable or necessary. You can take turns selecting the method to fish with which has the advantage of forcing periodic changes if what you're doing is not working very well. Experiment with different lure sizes, weights and colors. And if one lure proves to be hot, both of you can run it.
- Crank-baits: An excellent method to cover the water quickly and locate walleye. Forward troll at slow to moderate speeds, working weed and rock edges, depth changes, mud flats & humps. Tie on using a small snap swivel. Ten to 14 pound "super-line", such as FireLine or PowerPro, is recommended for trolling. Its "no-stretch" design will help you feel the lure working properly, much more so than with mono. This is a big plus, because a lure fouled with weeds won't catch fish. The thin diameter line will allow your lures to run deeper as well. It's advisable to attach a three-foot length of 10# fluorocarbon (or mono) leader material between your line and lure to make the line less visible to the walleyes. This is an advantage. A six and a half foot (or longer), medium-power rod with either a bait caster or walleye spinning reel will work fine. And it's best to hold your rod in your hand to know if you're hitting bottom or ticking weeds, which is something that you should be doing occasionally, unless the fish are clearly suspended higher in the water column. Two or more anglers in the boat should spread their rods widely off to the side. And let out plenty of line (75 feet or more) to get your lures well behind the boat. Check your lures periodically to insure they are running clean. If it's breezy out, troll with the wind-it's much easier to control the boat. The table below will give you a few suggestions on getting started. But there are plenty of other lures that will work, too.

- Jigging: A good way to work concentrations of fish once you find them. Tie your jig directly to your line….no snaps or leader. Six to eight pound monofilament line with the lightest jig to do the job. Back-troll slowly, drift or cast, keeping your jig just above the bottom. A 6′ or 6 ½' medium power spinning rod with a fast-action tip would be a good choice.

- Bottom Bouncing: A deadly method of covering the water using live bait spinner rigs…..either single hook minnow rigs or double/triple hook crawler harnesses. A bottom bouncer is a weighting system that attaches a piece of lead to a wire shaft. Special bottom bouncing weights are available in various sizes…the generally recommended weight is 1 oz. for every 10ft. of depth. There are several designs available and they all work. However, we favour the "slip bouncer" design that allows your line to freely slide through the bottom bouncer, much like the traditional Lindy Rig does. When a fish bites you immediately feed it line for 2-3 seconds (undetected by the walleye) before tightening up and setting the hook. Look for the Northland Tackle "Rock Runner Slip Bouncer" in stores. Cabela's sells something similar they refer to as a "torpedo style" bottom bouncer. Forward trolling at moderate speeds is preferred, although a slow back-troll or drift early in the season is effective using lighter weights. From mid-summer into fall, fishing with heavy weights (2-3 oz.) is necessary. A 7 foot medium-power rod with a fast-action tip combined with a bait caster with a "flippin' switch" is ideal. (A "flippin' switch" allows you to quickly and precisely release line in a controlled manner, which is a huge plus when you're trying to stay close to the bottom.) Other rod/reel combos will work, but not quite as well. Ten to 14 pound "super-line" is recommended to allow you to get to the proper depth and give you excellent feel of the bottom, as well as the lightest walleye bites. The idea is to run your bait just above the bottom, while just ticking it every now and then. This is very important because if you drag this rig on the bottom it's going to get badly fouled. Northland Tackle "Bait Fish Image" holographic spinners and crawler harnesses work exceptionally well…….choose the bigger blades if planning on fishing late summer/fall. Suggested spinner blade colors are: Fire-tiger, Gold Shiner, Silver Shiner, Sunfish, Rainbow Chub, Gold Perch, Yellow Perch and Sunrise. Minnows are the bait of choice in the spring with crawlers through the summer and fall. For a detailed description of the bottom bouncing technique, a suggested reading is Phil Rolfe's article, "Bottom Bouncing A to Z", available online at: http:/www.justfishontario.com/bottom_bouncing_a_to_z.htm

Significant Seasonal Events-"Adapting to the Mayfly Hatch": The annual hatch of mayfly larvae which occurs mid-June to early July, and lasting several weeks, is a preferred food source for walleye and can create difficulties for some anglers. Rather than using this as an excuse to NOT catch walleyes, use this feeding frenzy to your advantage! Walleyes will actively seek out areas where mayflies are hatching, generally mud bottom, cabbage strewn, shallow sections of the lake. Back bays containing the warmest water will show the first mayfly hatch……key in on this structure! Larvae activity is triggered by rising water temps which is often at its peak during mid day, high light conditions. Contrary to our "walleye instincts" mid day (10-2) can often be the best time period to catch fish during the may fly hatch! Cover these areas by trolling crankbaits, keying in on weed edges and shallow mud flats. Many times the walleye will be buried in the cabbage beds themselves. Working a jig tipped with a crawler or casting & twitching a lure such as the Rapala Suspending Husky Jerk can often result in some quality fish. Remember, these fish are often "stuffed" full of food and may require an aggressive approach….bigger baits, erratic action, a quicker retrieve….mix things up till you find what works.
In Conclusion:
There you have it, three ways that will definitely catch walleyes. You will be pleasantly surprised with the numbers and size of the fish you will be catching as you develop real skill with these methods. We have caught hundreds of walleyes on Eagle Lake using the same methods described above. You can too!

Sentry SafetyStick and ParkingStick
The Sentry SafetyStick allows you to deploy the Sentry automated enforcement capabilities to protect your no parking areas, fire hydrants, crosswalks, loading zones.
If you like multi-space configurations, the Sentry ParkingStick is paired with a Sentry kiosk and has you covered.
the MPS SafetyStick
Our SafetyStick (above) is a prime example of our philosophy of continual innovation. The SafetyStick is able to stand alone in non-parking locations and was designed in response to customer complaints about parkers blocking fire hydrants, clogging bus lanes, school crosswalks, and no parking zones. The SafetyStick monitors these areas and provides real-time enforcement with minimal cost while looking clean and modern on your street.
Ride Share Loading Zones
How about auto-enforcing ride sharing loading zones. Only allow in vehicles that you approve, and all others receive an automatic violation after the configurable grace period expires. Sentry SafetyStick provides you the ultimate control. Pair with a Sentry meter to allow custom messaging in the loading zones as well as additional security infrastructure.

I was doing a pre-wedding shoot with a couple a few weeks before their wedding. This is a great opportunity for them to get to know me better and for me to build up the relationship with them. This helps them to relax on their wedding day as they've seen how good they will look in their photographs and so have one less thing to worry about. I asked the bride if she had any questions for me.
"I hope you don't mind me asking, but do you have a spare battery for your camera?"
I smiled and opened up my camera bag to show I had 2 camera bodies, 3 lenses, a flashgun, a set of memory cards and a collection of spare batteries. This was only for the pre-wedding shoot, not the wedding day itself. "Why do you ask?" I said.
"A friend of mine got married recently and the photographer's battery ran out half way through the wedding. She only found out the next day". This raises so many questions - including was the photographer doing for the rest of the day - were they just miming???
The moral of this story - if you think it's expensive hiring a professional wedding photographer, try using an amateur! :-)

Very Pacific North West
Belanglo State Forest, NSW AUSTRALIA
09 April 2016
I can see why the aesthetic of the Pacific North West (PNW) has become such a popular location for Instagrammers. You have probably noticed the large amount of Instagram photos that regularly flood your feed in this style. These photos will usually feature an "authentic" adventurer wrapped in a hand made blanket next to some pine trees with a waterfall backdrop.
There is something about the lush Pine trees and the warm green tones that make for great photos. That's exactly what @chinocen and I set off to recreate, in a forest just 1 hour away from my home. I needed to come up with some photos for an Audible Instagram campaign I was working on and this forest was the perfect location.
The idea was to have a perspective shot from inside the car, with the iPhone on the car dashboard displaying "Into the Wild". The photo went live on my Instagram and the client loved it! (see below)

Pancakes & Memories
Last weekend, I slept in a little and came downstairs and the big girls were doing art projects and my baby was standing on her small purple chair helping her dad make pancakes. There was something so simple and sweet about the image. It moved me.
Later that day, I took it upon myself to purge my study. I cleared shelves and drawers and I found things. Junk and treasures. One treasure was a photo from almost seven years ago. It was the summer of 2008. August, I think. We were in South Carolina on a vacation with Husband's college buddies and their wives and families. Big Girl was 18 months and I was 6 months pregnant with Middle Girl. Dad had died only a week or two before that. But there I was, in my maternity swimwear, frolicking in the surf with my daughter, moving on. Because that's what we do.
We move on. We get up and have good days and dance with our daughters on shores and on sidewalks and we embrace life and love big and make pancakes on a Sunday morning in spring.
How have you moved on from hard things in your life?

Gwyneth Paltrow is officially fashion royalty as she beats the Duchess of Cambridge to the title of World's Best-Dressed Woman in influential People magazine poll
18:25 GMT, 12 September 2012
FOR all the care and effort she puts into looking the part of a Royal fashion icon, Kate Middleton could have expected better.
But the Duchess of Cambridge was beaten into second place yesterday by Gwyneth Paltrow for the title of the 'World's Best Dressed Woman.'
The Oscar-winning actress, 39, came out on top in People magazine's annual list of sartorial celebrities.
Kate might have the best 'classic style' but Gwyneth's minimal Hollywood glamour meant she topped the influential magazine poll
While Gwyneth won the best dressed
title, runner-up Kate at least claimed a consolation as the woman with
the best classic style.
Further down the top ten were
Hollywood actress Emma Stone, pop queen Rihanna and the Kardashian
family of American reality TV show fame.
Gwyneth's stylist, Elizabeth Saltzman,
said the wife of 'Coldplay' frontman Chris Martin was not a slave to
trends. 'She doesn't do fringe. She has a uniform. It's simple, not
overdone,' she told the magazine.
Gwyneth looks cool in flats at a Hollywood party
… and dressed to kill at a London premiere
Her stylist credits a simple 'uniform'
Designers are desperate to dress the star
Kate was heralded for her 'flawlessly elegant attire.'
'Whether in an ivory long-sleeve
Roland Mouret gown (with glittery Jimmy Choos peeking out) or a red
pleated Alexander McQueen design, the Duchess continues to pick
glamorous and chic pieces that still befit a future queen,' said People.
The American celebrity magazine said
the list was compiled after soliciting input from its 42 million
readers, its editors and fashion bloggers.

… and in a classic frock coat in Edinburgh

And here is how NOT to do it: Sarah Jessica Parker and Fergie were both singled out as badly dressed stars
Third place finisher Emma Stone, the
23-year-old star of 'The Amazing Spider-Man' and 'The Help,' was chosen
as having the best red carpet style, while singer Rihanna, who was
seventh, was praised for taking the most risks in her fashion choices.
1. Actress Gwyneth Paltrow
2. Duchess of Cambridge
3. Actress Emma Stone
4. Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian
5. Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr
6. Actress Reese Witherspoon
7. Singer Rihanna
8. Actress Jessica Alba
9. Actress
Diane Kruger
10. Actress Jennifer Lawrence
Actresses Jessica Alba (best jeans),
Jennifer Lawrence (best under 25s), and Reese Witherspoon (best
pregnancy) also made the top 10, along with Australian model Miranda
Among men, honours went to actors
Andrew Garfield, Brad Pitt, Colin Firth, Robert Pattinson, Chris and
Liam Hemsworth and singer Jay-Z.
It came as no surprise that former Friends star Jennifer Aniston came out top in the Best Hair category.
People also looked back at some of the
fashion faux pas of 2012.
The magazine recalled an orange lace dress
worn with prominent black underwear by pop singer Fergie, and a floral
floor-length dress worn by Sarah Jessica Parker that fashion blogger
Heather Cocks said made the "Sex and the City" actress look like a cast
member of polygamy TV reality show "Sister Wives."

Rapper Lupe Fiasco lived down to his name at a recent corporate-sponsored inauguration party in Washington D.C. when he was thrown off the stage by the hosts for going on a tirade against President Obama, Rush Limbaugh, and Glenn Beck, audience members said.
During one of his "songs" the rapper informed the audience that he didn't vote for President Obama and told them why, saying, "…and these same people supposedly telling us the truth. Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist, Gaza strip was getting bombed. Obama didn't say sh*t. That's why I ain't vote for him, next one either. I'm part of the problem, my problem is I'm peaceful."
It wasn't long before black-suited security guards mounted the stage and swept the rapper off, shutting down the concert.
Josh Rogin, a writer for Foreign Policy magazine, was in the audience and tweeted as the incident played out. In one Tweet, Rogin reported, "Lupe refused to move to the next song so a team of security guards came on stage and told him to go."
The event was sponsored by StartUp RockOn, a company that helps start up companies grow. The sponsor denies that Rapper Fiasco was shut down because he attacked Obama onstage. After the event, StartUp RockOn released a statement to explain its position.
StartUp RockOn is all about startups helping startups. At Sunday night's Inauguration Celebration at the Hamilton Live, organizers set out to honor innovative visionaries with grants, accolades and a party worthy of the success we achieved at the RNC and DNC this summer.
Lupe Fiasco performed at this private event, and as you may have read, he left the stage earlier than we had planned. But Lupe Fiasco was not "kicked off stage" for an "anti-Obama rant." We are staunch supporters of free speech, and free political speech. This was not about his opinions. Instead, after a bizarrely repetitive, jarring performance that left the crowd vocally dissatisfied, organizers decided to move on to the next act. Lupe Fiasco repeated the one song for more than 40 minutes.
The party continued as planned, and we celebrated the announcement of CodeNow's winning the Grant Challenge. CodeNow is a non-profit startup based in Washington DC that teaches "underrepresented high school students basic skills in computer programming."

The New York Post Rocks/
Not only is there a big article in today's New York Post about "your number", but it features 20 Times a Lady and me as the expert (I'm an expert on all things 'slut' now), AND is on the cover of the Pulse section. Yippie! Thank you Marina! Here's a scan so you can see how cool it is:
And here's the article. I bolded my parts. ;)
By MARINA VATAJ
October 24, 2006 -- TO a woman, size does matter. But it's not the size you're thinking of. What women really care about is the length of the list of former lovers, which is usually either too many or too, too many. No matter how sexually liberated (or liberally sexual), most women believe that the number of guys they've had sex with (the average being somewhere between 7.2 and 10.5, depending on the survey) really does count.
According to Karyn Bosnak, author of "20 Times a Lady" (HarperCollins, $13.95) - a novel about a 29-year-old singleton who vows to cap her lovers at 20 since it's almost double the average - when it comes to men, it's all about the number.
"Women are very conscious of the number of sexual partners they've had," says Bosnak, 32. "And even though it's ridiculous to worry about increasing your number, that's exactly what happens."
Take Jessica, a 23-year-old who's had sex with five guys - that's five fewer than the average woman - and is already thinking about stopping while she's safe, so she won't be sorry.
"I'm at a point where I feel I have to seriously consider before having sex with the next guy I'm interested in, because he's just going to up my number if he's not the one."
The apropos number of partners changes depending on which survey you check out. The Durex condom company states that the average number of partners for women is 10.5, while a survey conducted by physorg.com says the average is more like 7.2.
Bosnak, who researched the topic for her novel, found that women like Jessica think their short list should be shorter partly because the woman with longer lists tend to lie about her numbers.
"The average number of sexual partners women have in a lifetime is more like 15, especially since this is the liberal, live-single-longer New York, and the ones who say otherwise are deflating the figure," Bosnak says.
Essentially, these women tally their number of partners based on who's left once they've applied all the self-deluding excuses they've created to make themselves feel they haven't crossed some mental line.
That's the case with Samantha, 28. "The last two guys I had sex with don't actually count because both of them went under a minute and I didn't get anything out of it. The one prior to that I slept with when I was drunk and in college, and that gets erased because of the rule, 'What happens in college, stays in college.' "
Despite her low number, Samantha, like most women, believes that the maximum partners a woman can have before turning from a complete girl-next-door to the whore-next-door is 20.
Andrea, 28, practices the same funny math. "I've had nine sexual partners, but I tell my boyfriend that I've only had three," she says. "I don't count some of them since they only happened once, and why should I risk him telling him and having him think I'm easy when I can tell him otherwise?"
Whether it is the pressure of friends or just the old-fashioned idea that men think that their mate should be pure, women care less about pushing the boundaries and more about pushing men away if it means one less digit.
"It's completely ridiculous, but it's totally true," Bosnak says. "To some, a number is the difference between being dubbed skanky Paris Hilton and being considered a respectable woman."
So what does this say for ladies looking for love - but having sex on the way there?
"As long as women continue to lie about how many men they had sex with, the appropriate number will always be low when really it should be whatever it happens to be," Bosnak says.

- If one or both of you ends up gently weeping
- If he might be gay
- If he took you out for a vegan meal first
- If you're drunk, or you could have been drunk had you been drinking
- If you just gave up smoking
- If you just gave up having meaningless one-night stands
- If it's Tuesday
- If he's small
- If he's small-minded
- If he's Jared Leto

When it comes to high-conflict divorces, the ex-spouses aren't the only ones in pain — their children are affected too.
Over the last decades, research reveals that conflict is the primary source of anguish for children of divorce. Despite seeing their parents argue before, the conflict becomes more painful when co-parents still cannot get along.
While co-parenting is more beneficial than sole custody, parents who do not get along make things difficult. As a result, the kids do not experience a nurturing environment; they struggle with seeing both parents fight and manipulate them to choose a side.
It takes two parents to make co-parenting work. But when tensions are too high, there's another alternative that will help angry exes and scared children.
Parallel Parenting for High-Conflict Divorce
Most of Denver's divorce lawyers recommend parallel parenting for difficult co-parenting situations. This arrangement involves divorced parents disengaging from each other and maintaining limited contact. They do not engage in situations where they are unable to communicate in a respectful manner.
Simply put, ex-spouses disengage from each other, but maintain closeness with the kids. For example, they remain committed with serious decisions (e.g., education and medical) but decide on schedules and logistics separately. The higher the conflict is, the more structured the plan should be.
Parallel parenting prioritizes the children's welfare; it encourages both parents to not focus on each other, but on the kids. If exes cannot get along, then they can at least work together for the well-being of their children.
Making Co-Parenting Work
To make the arrangement work, ex-spouses seek a third party mediator. This person can be a social worker, a counselor, or even a member of the church. Mediators help divorced couples with any face-to-face meetings and keep the civility of the proceedings.
It is also important to develop a parallel parenting plan that describes specific schedules, places for exchanges, and plans for cancellations. Apart from the planning, however, ex-spouses should limit communication to necessary matters only.
In summary, modeling polite behavior and cooperation will set a positive tone for this arrangement. When children are confident in the love of both their parents, they will easily adjust to the divorce.

Burrito Bowl Recipe
Summer is salad time, but let's face it, any time is salad time when I'm serving carnitas on the salad. This meat is so good and easy to use in almost any dish that I often make a bunch and freeze it.
In the summer, I switch as much of my cooking from the oven to a slow cooker, microwave or use no-cook dishes.
It makes a much more refreshing meal for a searing hot day. That's why I decided to change from my usual bake carnitas recipe to one that worked using a slow cooker.
It takes a lot longer, but the meat is so good, I'm considering making it this way all the time. I've combined the refreshing flavor of a taco salad with the yummy carnitas topping and some cilantro rice with lime juice.
To make it even more special, I made my burrito bowls. They're easy, or I wouldn't have done it.
I had to start the slow cooker ahead of time since it takes at least 10 hours to cook the pork to perfection.
Besides the normal ingredients, such as chili powder, cayenne, garlic, and onion, I added a can of Mexican beer, chopped chilis and orange juice to give it a bit more flavor.
READ: Crockpot Carnitas Recipe
It's not mandatory, in fact, I've made carnitas with far fewer ingredients when I wasn't well prepared, just using garlic cloves, onions and seasoning salt with a little bit of liquid smoke for extra flavor. It's all good.
That's what's great about this dish; you can make it your own with a variety of seasoning.
How to Make the Burrito Bowl
As for the burrito bowl, it's so easy you'll wonder why you ever bought them in a store. You can even spice it when you make it yourself, which adds extra flavor to the dish.
I microwave the burrito to soften it, then spray the top with cooking spray and sprinkle with the seasoning if I use them. I invert a safe oven bowl and press the burrito shell onto it to create the bowl.
It only takes 10 minutes to crisp them up in a preheated 400-degree oven.

I was involved in an auto accident last year after which I discovered that I could not move a part of my face. I was referred by the doctor to a physiotherapist but it did not help. I decided to believe God's report in His word concerning my healing and restoration. Soon I realized that whenever I prayed in tongues I would feel twitch-like movements in that part of my face, and I recalled that the scriptures says "if the Spirit of God who raised Christ from the dead dwells in us, that same Spirit will give life to our mortal body (Rom 8: 11). I believed the word, so I kept on speaking in tongues with that awareness. I can now move that part of my face without any difficulty whatsoever. The nerve has been supernaturally replaced and I don't feel pains on that spot anymore. Hallelujah to Jesus!

Cementing India
Index : 2,728 | 1Yr : +76.3% | 1Mo : +32.96%
Category : Sectoral Trackers
Min Investment : 20,257
India is the second largest producer of cement in the world. With the government's strong focus on infrastructure and construction, the cement sector is expected to be an obvious beneficiary. The housing sector is the biggest demand driver for the cement industry accounting for 2/3rds of total consumption. Hence, the industry is largely dependant on the growth in housing construction which is in turn dependant on several factors like per capita growth in incomes of young individuals. Infrastructure, commercial and industrial construction account for the rest of the demand and as of now, do not impact the cement companies as much.
The industry is highly consolidated with top 20 companies controlling around 70 percent of total production. It has high entry barriers as it involves large capital investments and long gestation periods. Also, obtaining access to sufficient limestone reserves is an additional impediment for new entrants in the market. Considering that the end product is homogeneous, success is dependant on distribution reach and retail presence across the country.
The implementation of the Government's ambitious infrastructure projects and providing housing for all as promised, will auger demand and solidify the future of this sector. A cyclical upswing in overall demand in the economy will also indirectly give it a boost. Invest in well managed cement companies that have done well in the past and will most likely continue to outperform in the future.

stop the traffik is a HUGE coalition campaign, global in scope - grassroots in nature... they aim to urge governments and everyday people to help end human trafficking because PEOPLE SHOULDN'T BE BOUGHT AND SOLD. Amen.
The founder of stt is Steve Chalke - a legend, theologian, extensive writer (over 40 books!), fundraiser (world record holder for raising the most money in one event - London marathon... 1.25 million pounds!)... read more here:
anyway, we've got heaps of events happening early in January to kick off this year with a huge bang for the fight against trafficking. Prayer slave chain on the 12th, GOD IN THE CITY, Mission on the edge and Australia's largest chocolate fondue party at Federation Square in the center of Melbourne... not to mention Jan. 9th (a dinner updating anyone interested in the global impact and strategy of Stop The Traffik!). If you'd like to come email me (email@example.com).
Looking forward to a new Kingdom coming soon where people won't be bought and sold... anyone else interested?
