Jays Rating: B. I'm glad I could hear it.
Actors: Jake Gyllenhaal / Peter Sarsgaard / Reese Witherspoon
Director: Gavin Hood
The law "Extraordinary Rendition" allows United States agents to transport terrorists to offshore sites where anti-terrists laws don't exist and is the premise behind the political thriller Rendition. When an Egyptian born Chemical engineer played by Aramis Knight disappears off a plane his American born wife played by Reese Witherspoon contacts an old friend played by Peter Sarsgaard who is an aid to a senator for help. In the meantime The C.I.A director played by Meryl Streep sends a young inexperienced agent played by Jake Gyllenhaal to oversee the torture on the suspected terrorist. Even though this film is full of stars none except Sarsgaard are used or perform to their full potential. There are a few subplots happening in unison and somehow the director keeps it from becoming to complex. The movie also asks some good questions and I have one of my own. Maybe my ears are really sensitive but what deaf person okayed the lady who is supposed to be singing, humming or maybe you would even call it screaming during the dramatic scenes on the soundtrack. (In fact it sounded like a cat was run over by a car.) Even with the few problems I liked this film and I'm giving it a B rating.
This movie has been given a R rating by the MPAA
Although I am blind, I can appreciate a good movie as well as sighted individuals.
I rely more on a good story line than special effects.

My Woodhouse French
Ross Kelly
Ross Kelly came to Woodhouse from St Aloysius' RC College and lives in Islington. He studied French, mathematics and politics at A level and graduated in 2018 with AAC. He is currently at University of Nottingham studying Modern Languages.
He spoke to us during his second year of A levels...
"I'm from a bilingual household (English and Slovakian) and studied French at GCSE and really enjoyed it, so decided to study it at Woodhouse.
The languages department is so extensive with the language lab computers and headphones switchboard set-up. At random we can be connected with other students at different ends of the classroom and we get to hear all different opinions and accents and improve our speaking and understanding.
In a normal lesson we'll either be speaking to a classmate on the headphones, obviously in French, about the current subject or something the teacher has set up two or three questions to talk about – or we'll be working on grammar and studying the content or sometimes a book. Last year we studied a film, La Haine, which is about a day in the life of three teenagers in the poorer suburbs of Paris. This year we are studying a book No Et Moi, about a girl doing an interview with a homeless girl and how their relationship develops as they become friends. It's a great way to study. We are encouraged to watch French films and now that I have, I enjoy them.
Our teachers are really good and very flexible. They don't say 'Ok here's the content on the board, get on with it…' They encourage you to discuss and sometimes don't mind if we drift off from the exercise – as long as we are talking in French, because that always helps us improve.
If a teacher is free in the languages office they will always make time to help you out no matter what, and we get lots of links for online grammar exercises and text books. We also have a French languages assistant and every week you get a least half an hour with a native speaker one-on-one, which is great for getting to grips with the language.
We've had two guest speakers from the Open University come in to talk to us about ways to study language. I've seen lots of guest speakers in all my subjects at Woodhouse and they've all been very interesting.
Last year I went on the French trip to Paris for four days, it was fun. We visited the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre museum. We had a guided tour of the Sorbonne university and an open market, that was good. It did help with our French. During the day we did the tourist stuff but in the evening we'd get a few hours to ourselves to look around and get food and stuff, and speaking French in the restaurants and hotel every day really helped. The area we stayed in was the business area called La Défense and you could see the Champs-Élysées. I'd never been to France before so it was interesting to see how differently French people acted compared to the English, we are so close to each other geographically, but so different. The only two cultural experiences I'd had before were England and Slovakia, so seeing France was actually quite interesting.
A friend and I have agreed that if it is ever just us two, talking on the phone, we will speak only in French to practice for our exams. Sometimes my mum looks at me a bit weirdly and will say 'Why are you talking like that?' and I have to prove I'm not hiding some big secret....
My mum is from Slovakia so I speak Slovak with her. She didn't speak it with me when I was younger, so I grew up speaking only English, but I wanted to be able to talk to my family in Slovakia so decided to teach it to myself and realised that I really love languages – but I wouldn't say I'm quite trilingual yet. Knowing some Slovak did help me understand some things when learning French, like conjugating verbs and some of the systems and rules we apply.
I want to go onto study French (at university) and a new language – Russian. I've studied Russian on my own and can read and write a bit now. I think there are some similarities with Slovak. I want to go into interpreting and translation and as Russian is not as widely spoken here, I think it may help me get ahead.
My outlook has definitely changed since I came here. I'm more confident in myself and with new people and new situations. A lot of classes are discussion based and you have to provide opinions, and I'm not as scared as I would have been. College life has made me more organized because there is always lots of talk about 'This is what you should be doing now, and you should be revising this soon…' and they give us lots of booklets on different revision methods. I study better, simple.
It's not intimidating at Woodhouse, but it is a big change. Once you know your classes you are fine, but you don't need to know the whole college. I don't know half the people in my year, there's more than 600 of us so of course you would never be able to, but it is very integrated, and you do get to meet loads of people from all areas of London, it's a very culturally diverse place."

Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett have once again got into the festive spirit with a Christmas duet—following their H&M Holiday campaign last year.
The pair sing a rendition of the Yuletide classic 'Baby, It's Cold Outside' in a new advert for Barnes & Noble. Gaga previously tackled the classic track with Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Of course, Gaga and Bennett are no mere strangers when it comes to singing together. They released a jazz album, Cheek to Cheek, together in September last year and are planning on putting out another one.
Watch Gaga and Bennett's sweet holiday campaign for Barnes & Noble, where you "never know who you'll meet" during the chilly season:

Botswanan elephant conservation
Human-elephant conflict is a major conservation challenge in Botswana. BBC Wildlife meets Makata Baitseng from the Ecoexist Project.
18th March 2015
In the April 2015 issue of BBC Wildlife you can read all about a project to protect elephants and people in the Okavango Delta in Botswana. This film by Richard Hughes highlights some of the key problems.
Q&A: Makata Baitseng from the Ecoexist Project
What is your role?
My role is to gather ideas and perspectives about the potential for community-based tourism and helping build an elephant economy in the Panhandle. I also work closely with the farmers to help reduce human and elephant conflict through crop raiding.
What are the problems?
In this region, the populations of people and elephants are nearly equal - about 15,000 each. In a shared space of just over 8,000 square kilometers, people and elephants compete directly for access to water, food, and land.
At certain times of the year, elephants in the region move southward and east from seasonal waters in the pans near Namibia to the waters of the Okavango Delta. Along the way, they pass through villages and settlements of the Panhandle, using distinct pathways remembered and followed by elephants for generations.
Some of these pathways have become restricted or even blocked where farmers have been allocated fields for planting that sit directly on top of these pathways. It is inevitable that elephants will use all the resources available to them. This means elephants are at risk of being killed by farmers who are just trying to protect their crops.
How does this create conflict?
Elephants come in contact with farmers fields over the period of harvest, which lasts three months or so. The elephants enter the fields at night and eat, trample or destroy parts, if not all of the cropped field.
This is all the farmers have to feed to their families and is often their only source of income.
The farmers move away from the village and live in small watch huts next to the edge of the their field for this three month period to protect the crop.
What are the solutions?
In the short term, we empower farmers with practical, affordable, and effective tools to deter crop-raiding and reduce conflicts with elephants. These include chilly mitigation, electric fences and conservation agriculture. We are also trying alternative crops to allow us to harvest before the elephants arrive.
Long-term, we collaborate with local, national and international groups to create an enabling environment for a range of policies and programs that tackle the root causes of conflict.
Film-maker Richard Hughes says:
"It's not every day you get a tweet from someone you've never met inviting you to come and film elephants in Botswana. One film permit, two aeroplanes, a helicopter, one 4x4, and a macorro later, I found myself in a tent on edge of the Okavango Delta Pan Handle.
My closest neighbours were two boisterous young hippos, and as night fell we were joined briefly by large herds of elephants heading further into the Delta for water. Making a solo production on solar power had it's own challenges. The field workers did a bit of sound recording and the farmers took on acting parts with great enthusiasm much to the entertainment of their children.
The film has been made voluntarily to help support the work of The Ecoexist Project and local government agencies, who are helping to reducing conflict between humans and elephants in the region."
The full documentary will be release on the 24 April 2015 on the Ecoexist website.

Bac Ha is a district of Lao Cai Province, located on a plateau with average elevation above 930m above sea level. Bac Ha has a cool climate all year around and is inhabited by 14 different ethnic minorities such as the Kinh, Hmong, Tay, Nung, Dao, Phu La, Hoa... Many of the ethnic groups in Bac Ha have maintained a lifestyle unchanged for centuries.
Bac Ha is famous to the foreign travelers to Vietnam for the ethnic market which is on Sunday morning. The market offers exotic scenes of ethnic people in their colorful traditional costumes gathering around the town for trade and for meeting with friends. Different corners of the market are for different types of goods ranging from horses, dogs, pigs to joss sticks, food, wine,... People talk to one another in a few languages. If you travel to Bac Ha on Sunday morning and take a look at the market from the nearby mountain slope, you'll be amazed at the collection of colors...
At the market, the women do the trade, the men normally sit somewhere with their buddies and drink wine. Many get drunk by noon and can only come home on horse back with the aid of his wife... Some young girls and boys come to the market to find or to meet with lover. The girls normally gather in groups well dressed standing at the entrances to the market. The boys pass by would try to tease and talk to the girl his heart seems to fall for.
Apart from the town, tourists don't tend to travel to other areas of Bac Ha District. AdventureGreen organizes adventure tours such as trekking tours with homestay, mountain biking tours and motorbike tours in and around Bac Ha, between Bac Ha and Ha Giang. Our adventure tours follow routes not often traveled by other tourists. The natural landscapes in Bac Ha are fresh and captivating, the local culture is authentic, the boys and girls here are curious about foreigners visiting their community.

The Vagus nerve
Vagus in Latin means "wandering" and most of us will have heard of the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic divisions of the nervous system but perhaps not the Vagus nerve.
This nerve, which has only scientifically been researched in more depth over the last 20 years, is critical to our physical and emotional feelings of well being as beneath our awareness it efficiently and smoothly sends messages to the brain, gut, heart and other organs of the body. So the fact that it is "in touch" with so many of our vital organs tells us how vitally important it is.
The relatively recent research of Stephen Porges has brought to our attention the pivotal role this superhighway has on every area of our body and therefore our life.
So what does it do for us?
When the vagus nerve is operating at it's best it is connecting the messages from our organs, our thoughts, our conscious and our unconscious into one smooth multi level pathway of health, calm and ease on a daily basis.
And isn't that what we have been looking for?
A few of the issues toning the Vagus Nerve can help with
Blood pressure
Reducing inflammation
Panic attacks
Voice issues
Sound too good to be true?
Well my research and work on myself and clients has really helped take what I do up another level. Resolving past issues, helping the body operate physically with more balance and connection, quicker healing, less anxiety and more pleasure and satisfaction in life are major goals that most of us would like to aim for.
What can I do to tone my Vagus Nerve?
Humming, Singing
Heart Rate Variability breathing – High Coherence Breathing. (Heart Math)
Simple crossing the Mid line Exercises eg BrainGym
Gargling – anything that stimulates your vocal cords is good.
Meditation – Loving kindness meditation
Washing your face with icy water–cold water on your face stimulates the vagus nerve–remember this next time you're feeling really stressed out.
Emotional Freedom Technique and Hypnosis
My work building a raft of trance based techniques including Hypnosis, NLP and Emotional Freedom Technique has been dedicated to helping clients move forward in their lives. The addition of working with and toning the Vagus Nerve has been another major addition to helping clients access even more meaningful and simple yet empowering tools that they can use on a daily basis to help turn their lives around.
If you would like to know more just email or call me and I will be very happy to help.
The words eating disorder tend to automatically direct our attention to anorexia and bulimia. However eating disorder can cover any eating habits that are "disordered and not under control". Eating too much involves a disorder of our relationship with food as does eating too little or eating unhealthily.
When we are ready to lose weight, or change unhealthy eating habits, it is one thing to "go on a diet" but is this going to be an eating plan that we will be able to stick to for the rest of our lives? Diets can be transitory but having the tools, strength and beliefs to make and keep the changes are all important to support us into the future.
Hypnosis, EFT, and NLP are very powerful ways that can help make important and valuable changes in many areas of our lives. Engaging the creative unconscious means we can communicate with and change our internal language and habits. Just one of the strengths in these tools is that they can be used in our everyday life to continue making healthy change on a daily basis.
Hypnosis will help engage the unconscious creative mind to remove the negative trance that we have been "feeding" ourselves all this time. Telling ourselves to stop an ingrained habit is very hard since that requires us to override our conscious mind which is being "fed" by our unconscious mind. Our conscious cognitive thinking mind usually knows what we would like to do but the creative unconscious is the part of us that holds the keys to actually making the change.When a long standing habit has been hard wired into the brain we need to find the best ways to reprogramme it. To help change one's "disordered eating" we need not only the tools and Hypnosis, NLP or Emotional Freedom Technique are great ways to start to help change our old patterns, but also to find the resilience and patience to keep working on it.
Finding an experienced and qualified professional hypnotherapist could well help open the doors to letting go of old habits.
If you haven't experienced hypnotherapy before it can be a little daunting wondering what will happen and how you will feel when in hypnosis. Most of us have seen stage shows and hypnotists on television so understandably one may feel a little wary. However hypnosis could be one of the most relaxing experiences you have had but unfortunately the thoughts of "will I cluck like a chicken or tell all my darkest secrets" can make us somewhat guarded at that first appointment.
Now, a professional hypnotherapist would not make any of their clients cluck like a chicken and you certainly will not be telling anybody anything that you would rather keep to yourself.
However these worries can set up an unconscious resistance before we even cross the threshold so it is best to be aware of these thoughts to help allow yourself to participate as comfortably as you like in the session.
First, remember that the therapist is there to help you and has your best interests at heart. One of the strengths that Milton Erickson, the founder of modern hypnosis had, along with his remarkable skills was his ability to unconsciously convey to his clients how much he cared that they achieve the very best results.
Consciously knowing this means that there will be no need to "do battle" with the hypnotherapist. Just think how much more relaxed will you feel and how much easier it will be when both of you are working together. Those who arrive with arms folded and a "well fix me then" look on their face will take up valuable time in their session when they could be making valuable changes instead.
One reason for this resistance is that our logical thinking mind may not want us to do this work since our logical mind may not want to hand over control to the creative mind. (Yes you can relax, it will still be your mind not the hypnotherapists'!) What the logical mind can find hard to grasp at times is that accessing the power of our creative mind will help free our logical mind thereby encouraging the whole brain to work more harmoniously. The vast majority of clients are very easy to work with and if there is any discomfort then as professionals it is our job to help put the client at ease so they will leave the session happier and more relaxed than when they came so helping them achieve their best results.
So all you have to do is bring along the belief that you will be exploring wonderful and powerful ways to help let go of the issues you will be working on plus three experiences that will help you get the best possible results –
Eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia can be very difficult to treat and many people suffering in this area may never fully recover control over the problem. There are many different reasons and conjectures about the causes of an eating disorder so it is important that medical advice is taken since they are not just injurious to a person's health but can be fatal.
Treatment can for eating disorders can be ongoing for months or years without a satisfactory outcome leaving family and sufferer in a very difficult place. However I have worked with very good results with a number of eating disorder clients and below is a case study of a recent client who came to me with bulimia.
(Names and some incidents are altered to protect client anonymity)
Ann, a young lady in her late twenties came to see me after having suffered from an unhealthy preoccupation with her eating habits since she was a young girl. She had always been on and off diets and had resorted to binge eating and then vomiting to control her weight. She was feeling helpless with the situation and although she held down a responsible job her self confidence and self belief was dipping lower and lower .
In our first session I took notes and information about how long this had been an issue and information about her past background and experiences although I always let my clients reveal whatever past issues they may have had in their own time. In fact they may not even remember some of this information consciously and if they do not wish to discuss certain things then that is fine and we can still work without that information.
Ann had the internal message that she had "always been big" and this to me is the sort of phrase that tells me a lot about where an issue is coming from. Our speech patterns and the phrases we use will give us plenty of clues about where to look and how to resolve the underlying issues once we are attuned to them.
In a situation such as this there are two important elements, one is releasing any past trauma physical or emotional around the issue and two, building a client's confidence. One of the techniques I use is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) which I think is a wonderful tool that can truly help clear past issues very rapidly and instil confidence sometimes with almost miraculous speed. And not only can we work with it in the sessions but the client can take the technique with them and use it on a n everyday basis themselves to help continue the work between sessions. This not only speeds up the process but involves the client in the process giving them control that they may well have felt unable to access previously.
After the first session Ann returned two weeks later to report that things had been much better and that the tools I had given her had really helped her take control whenever she had any of these urges to binge. However she had experienced a relapse for three days but using the techniques she had got herself back on track again. In this second session I started helping her develop her confidence and self belief and the next time we met she had not binged at all and said she felt normal and much more relaxed. We then scheduled another appointment although due to other commitments she could not come back for a month. At this stage I would have preferred to see her a little sooner but that was not possible. However I always let clients know that they can email or call me if they are experiencing any issues between sessions. This is important since I would rather they do not loose time getting stuck when they can continue building on the changes they are already making.
When Ann came back to see me four weeks later I could immediately see in her a much happier and grounded person than the one that had walked in just four sessions previously. She had applied for a new job so for our final session we discussed how she was feeling about things went over anything that needed any "tidying up" and then worked on simple but powerful ways she could take this new found confidence into the job interview and also continue to develop it in her everyday life.
Ann emailed me a month later to say that she had got the job and was feeling really good and much happier than before. This may seem a simple process and in many ways it was although every person I see has a different story and a different history. For me there is no set routine but rather an understanding that every one who walks into my office is an individual with their own personal needs and desires. Starting from that place I can use hypnosis, NLP, or EFT and my own unique techniques in a way that will offer individual opportunities for personal change whatever the issue.
If you would like to discuss further how I can help you, or someone close to you who has an eating disorder please call 07970218451 or email firstname.lastname@example.com and I will be happy to discuss any aspect of this or any other issue with you.
I have been seeing more and more clients for weight loss in the past few months and in many cases I get good results in one or two sessions. If one is eating too many calories through old messages such as "clean your plate" or "there are starving people out there" it is usually fairly simple to change these types of patterns in our thinking.
However, as I mention on my website, eating disorders, whether bingeing, overeating, or anorexic behaviours generally have little to do with food and all to do with a desperate need to numb one's emotions. The frightening emotions that are buried in the psyche may be just too painful to bring to consciousness so there needs to be some way of avoiding having to think about them. A part of you will then look for a behaviour that helps keep these feelings at bay. Clients can often feel worried that hypnosis will "make" them open up with all sorts of information that they are either not aware of or would rather keep to themselves. But our unconscious mind is there to protect us and is programmed to keep this sort of information safely where it is until we are mentally and emotionally ready to deal with it. What is more, an experienced therapist will only move at the rate a client feels safe and comfortable with.
Letting go of these unresolved feelings is so often key to reprogramming our relationship with food but there are many techniques at the therapist's disposal that will allow this to be done in a safe and comfortable way, allowing the client to move at their own speed and within their own comfort zone.
If you find yourself forever "yoyo" dieting, repeating the same destructive patterns or eating to make yourself "feel better" then finding out how you can really resolve the issues behind the actions will most likely be the key to turning your life around.

Cherry Walnut Bruschetta
The great thing about summer is that I can buy produce, well fruit at least, outside my office building from a fruit stand vendor. I have no idea where he trucks his fruit in, but it's probably somewhere closer than where the average grocery store gets them given how firm and juicy the fruit is. And I love seeing them use those simple scoop-bottomed scales–always so human. Although the figs looked tempting, I opted for some dark, ruby-red cherries because, … Read More

Bad cavities can happen to healthy families. Most of the people I consult with are shocked to discover their toddler has cavities. They are stunned and confused, since they have healthy diets, breast-feed their babies, and subscribe to natural medicines and organic lifestyles.
The myth that must be broken is that flossing and brushing will stop cavities. Even if it were possible to brush and floss perfectly, only 40 percent of plaque can be removed by mechanical cleaning. No toothbrush bristle can clean the tiny grooves of molar teeth – which are the most vulnerable areas for cavities and the place bacteria lodge and colonize. In fact, studies show that the kind of bacteria in these molar grooves, usually dominates the mouth's ecology. If healthy bacteria set up "home" in the molar grooves, healthy bacteria will likely protect the mouth for years, possibly for life.
For an infant or toddler with cavities, I recommend frequent applications of small amounts of xylitol, wiped or brushed onto teeth during the day, to rid the mouth of harmful bacteria and promote healthy ones. Morning and night, moisten a soft toothbrush with one drop of bubblegum ACT rinse and brush the affected teeth with this. The benefit of combining a little fluoride with some xylitol has been shown to speed healing and repair enamel. A children's Nimbus brush is very soft and is excellent for this purpose. For an older child, or if cavities are more severe, a rice-grain amount of Crest Original toothpaste can be brushed or wiped over affected teeth to speed enamel healing.
Not only does xylitol eradicate unhealthy plaque from teeth but it also cleans away harmful bacteria from other places in the mouth and even from saliva. As xylitol dissolves in the mouth it penetrates the grooves of molar teeth and dislodges dangerous bacteria while promoting healthy, protective ones. It is important that your child has healthy mouth when teeth erupt – baby teeth and adult ones. This method of preparing the mouth for the eruption of teeth has been called prevention using "windows of opportunity" – using the eruption of teeth as special moments when a good diet and xylitol can affect a child's dental health for life. Baby molars erupt in the second year of life, and adult molars often begin to erupt around 4 years old.
Remember to clean family toothbrushes with Listerine, rinse and store so they dry completely between uses – preferably in sunlight. Bacteria die when they dry!

There are plenty of ways to show your stylish side. From fashion to hair and makeup as well as your attitude and behavior, your style is a part of you that deserves to be enhanced. Since your style is essential in every aspect of life, there's no reason to settle for anything else even when it comes to the most practical things such as your car. Choosing a car can be challenging, especially since you have to consider your own needs, requirements and budget first. However, that doesn't mean that you can't add another factor to the search. In the end, if your car doesn't suit your taste, style and temperament, you won't feel content driving it. To make the search a bit easier for you, the following list features some of the most amazing cars for stylish ladies. Check them out.
1. Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde
If you're a lady of fine taste and style yet you love the excitement, Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde, also known as just Giulietta QV, may as well be the perfect choice for you. This car fuses both elegance and performance in one amazing means of transport. As you can guess, this Alfa looks incredible, with great design and leather seats, but it also has a pretty good fuel economy together with some perks such as six-speed gearbox, uprated brakes and sat nav. The speed won't leave you disappointed either.
2. Fiat 500
This is definitely one of the most popular cars for women who know exactly who they are and are not afraid to share that with the world. On one hand, it's true that the spaciousness and the ride itself may not be at the top of the list, but if you're a lady who's not too concerned about that aspect, Fiat 500 will steal your heart with its cute, retro yet truly elegant design and amazing economy (67mpg). Of course, if you're willing to invest a bit more and this particular car design is your vehicle soulmate, you can go for the TwinAir-engine version, and get the speed to match the looks.
3. Citroen C4 Cactus
Rocking your own style and being different go perfectly well with Citroen C4 Cactus. This is precisely why not that many women will go for it – but those that do are truly unique and headstrong. You may not think that this particular car is gorgeous, but it's truly original and undoubtedly stylish. Not to mention that it has plenty of amazing features to back it up. Thanks to the door airbumps, there's a lot less need for worry and headaches at the parking lots. What's more, the panoramic glass roof makes it truly special. The car is comfy and quiet, and the best thing about it is that it's relatively affordable.
4. Ford Focus
It's interesting that Ford Focus is not at all among the list of top car choices for many drivers. However, it has a lot to offer both performance- and looks-wise. Also, it just might be the most sophisticated Ford so far, with the best fuel economy among the Ford vehicles as well. It offers plenty of room and comfort, while the design is still sleek and elegant – just the right fit for what a stylish and timeless woman would want. It comes with amazing new technologies such as multimedia system Ford Sync 2 in color and voice command. Easy automatic parking, Power Shift automatic switchgear and a great price make Ford Focus a truly amazing deal.
5. Peugeot 108
Another relatively affordable car choice that's totally aimed at the female audience is Peugeot 108. This is truly a perfect vehicle for ladies who really want their car to show their taste, style and personality. For starters, the design is sleek yet cute and it comes in a variety of colors to choose from. There's also the possibility to choose between three interior themes and seven styling packs. The packs include everything from the exterior stickers to patterned seat, mirror and door handle covers. It's no wonder then that this is a top favorite car for creative souls. Of course, the entertainment system is more than great for a complete driver enjoyment.
It's important not to get hasty when looking for your perfect car, especially the one that you want to match your style and personality with. As mentioned, with so many amazing choices on the market, there's really no reason to ditch the looks and design aside in favor of performance. These days you can get both. Ladies who value their style and know what they want and like can definitely make a statement with their choice of vehicle. Take this opportunity to personalize and style up another aspect of your life so that you can enjoy every moment on the road to the fullest.

On the third day He rose again;
He ascended into heaven, He is seated at the right hand of the Father, and He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
He Rose From The Dead 彼は死からよみがえった
He Ascended into Heaven 彼は天に昇って
He Sits at the Right Hand of the Father 彼は、父の右に座っている
He will return again to judge all. 彼はすべてを裁くために再び戻る。
1. He Rose From The Dead彼は死からよみがえった
a. What we believe about this何を我々がこのことに関して信じているか
It is important for each of us to get into the Bible and find our for yourself what you truly believe. Would it be fair or even healthy for you to put your trust in something that was put together by another person? Or would it be better to not only seek the information but also to firmly believe it as well. So many cults around the world and from all ages have forced its members to believe all sorts of things. Bath water to be use in communion. That the leader preexisted with Creator God. That he was the final messenger from God with a better plan that what the Bible has. The list goes on. But the details of the ends time are one area that has so many different views. I will not deal with those today but will look at what the Creed speaks to in these words we have before us today.
b. Why is this important なぜこれが重要であるか Doctrinal significance of the Resurrection 復活の教義上の意義
• insures our regeneration 私たちの再生を保証
1Peter 1:3 Here Peter directly connects the resurrection of Jesus with our own regeneration or new birth. When He rose from the dead, His body was different, it was the "resurrection life" in a human body and a perfect human spirit that was created for an eternal fellowship and obedience to the Father—forever. In this resurrection, Jesus earned for us a new life just like His. The body is not ours—not yet—as our bodies are still in conflict with life—in that we are still subject to weakness, aging and death. But the good news is that our spirit will be changed in our resurrection. We have the Power of the Resurrection at work in us now. The proof is found in Paul's comments in Eph 2:5-6 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
Col 3:1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. When God raised His Son, He now looks upon us as deserving of the merits Christ received when He came from the Grave.
There is a great Spiritual power at work in us and many don't even know about it! Read with me Eph 1:19-20 19 and His incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms. The same power that was at work in the dead body of Jesus IS at work inside of us…. WHEN we put our trust in Him. Do you know THAT kind of power?
An illustration from the garden: Once there was a brier growing in a ditch and there came along a gardener with his spade. As he dug around it and lifted it up the brier said to itself, "What is he doing? Doesn't he know I am a worthless brier?" But the gardener took it into his garden and planted it amid his flowers, while the brier said, "What a mistake he has made planting me among these beautiful roses." Then the gardener came once more and made a slit in the brier with his sharp knife. He grafted it with a rose and when summer came lovely roses were blooming on that old brier. Then the gardener said, "Your beauty is not due to what came out but to what I put in." Are we allowing Jesus to put His Power into our lives?
Paul ALSO sees us who have placed our faith in the Risen Savior as being raised with Him. Romans 6:44 We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life., 11 11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. This power can be used by us to gain more and more victory over remaining sin in our lives. (Romans 6:14 14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.) But some of us do not go there. We are satisfied with our lives---but we are living in the dump when the Lord wants us to live in His luxury! This has nothing to do with riches or power…this has everything to do with Spiritual power over sin! See Acts 1:8 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." . This new power that is at work in us is used by His Spirit to bring about a change in our life style, in proclaiming the Gospel, or working miracles and having a triumphful reality over the enemy. That is what so important about the regeneration.
• insures our justification 私たちの正当性を保証
Now, there are a number of words in this study that we don't use every day. This is one of them, at least not on a daily use. Even in the Bible, there is only one verse that connects the resurrection of Jesus Christ with our justification and that is found in Romans 4:25 25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.. (justification means our receiving a declaration that we are NOT guilty but righteous before God.) We have sinned and we are guilty of that before a Holy God. Jesus stepped into the mix as the substitute for my sin—taking the punishment instead of me—and that His doing that was 1000% covered the penalty for my sin. Jesus was indeed "put to death for our trespasses" AND He was "raised for our justification." When God raised His Son from the dead, it was a sign that He approved Christ' Work on the Cross—the dying for us part—and that His work is them finished. No wonder Jesus cried out on the Cross: "It is finished!" Now that He did that, He no longer needed to remain dead. The ransom was paid in full. In the resurrection of the Son of God, God in effect is saying: "I approve of what You have done and You find favor in My sight!" Not the first time God said that to His Son. "This is my beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased." No guilt remains! We are truly set free! Justification! Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, I am free at last!~ Martin Luther King Jr quotes from a Negro Spiritual.
What is justification? It is the declared purpose of God to regard and treat those sinners who believe in Jesus Christ as if they had not sinned, on the ground of the merits of the Savior. It is not mere pardon. Pardon is a free forgiveness of past offenses. It has reference to those sins as forgiven and blotted out. Justification has respect to the law, and to God's future dealings with the sinner. It is an act by which God determines to treat him hereafter as righteous--as if he had not sinned. The basis for this is the merit of the Lord Jesus Christ, merit that we can plead as if it were our own. He has taken our place and died in our stead; He has met the descending stroke of justice, which would have fallen on our own heads if He had not interposed. ~Albert Barnes was born in Rome, New York on December 1, 1798. He was an ordained pastor.
• insures our resurrection bodies 私たちの復活の体を保証
This is called "The Blessed Hope" of the Believer…when we are raised in the last days. "And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by His Power" 1 Cor 6:14. In like manner, 2 Cor 4:14 gives us even more assurance when it says: "He who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus and bring us with you into His presence." And when that final harvest takes place, We are called "the First Fruits." 1 Cor 15:12-58 gives us big picture of a time when our resurrected bodies will be like when, in God's final 'harvest', He raises us from the dead and brings us into His presence.
After Jesus' resurrection, He still had the nail prints on His hands and feet and the spear stab in His side. They are His trophies. His Mark set Him apart from all else that was made. The scars from the crucifixion are ever so unique because they are an external reminder of His sufferings and death for us. We on the other hand, will not have those marks of injury or deformity as our new bodies will be perfect, "incorruptible" raised "in glory"
2. He Ascended into Heaven 彼は天に昇って
Death could not hold Him死は彼を抑えることができなかった
This was the final act of God to break the power of Sin and Death. Death indeed could not hold Him down BECAUSE He is The Life! He left that place with His Father to provide the sacrifice that was necessary for ALL Mankind. Now, His work on earth is over—as far as taking our place and setting us free. Now, His role is to …
3. He Sits at the Right Hand of the Father 彼は、父の右に座っている
His role now is to receive Honor and Glory from all creation. The Father had lifted Him up—higher than
John 3:14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,John 8:28 So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He and that I do nothing on My own but speak just what the Father has taught Me.John 12:32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to Myself."Eph 4:9-10 9 (What does "He ascended" mean except that He also descended to the lower, earthly regions? 10 He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.)
Strategic place as this is near to the Throne of God—His Holiness!
Because this is the highest place of all creation. Philippians 2: 9 Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, 10 that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
4. He will return again to judge all. 彼はすべてを裁くために再び戻る。 His future role 彼の将来の役割Acts 1:9-11 9 After He said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight. 10 They were looking intently up into the sky as He was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. 11 "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven."
And when He returns, He will sit on the Throne to judge the living and the dead. Even in the Old Testament, this is spoken about. David wrote in Ps 110:1 The Lord says to my lord: "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."
When He returned to His Home, that part of the promise is fulfilled. Heb 1:3 sums it up with "The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. ."
Now His work of Redemption is completed. It would be like you and I when we finished our toils of the day, we sit down and rest ourselves from the hardships of the task. We enjoy the rest. A feeling of deep satisfaction fills our heart. We have accomplished the work. Now, comes the rest. Jesus, too, sits down—but He sits at the right Hand of His Father and is the visible demonstration of His finished redemption work. It truly is finished.
This also indicates His total authority over creation. Eph 1:20-21 again ___ . He enjoys being at His Right Hand, with angels, authorities, and powers subject to Him." 1 Peter 3:22.
Another factor is that at this time, the FULL power of His Holy Spirit will be "Poured out" Acts 2:33.
From this position of authority, He will be engaging in Heavens activities. To tell you the truth, all that is beyond my understanding, but I can tell you this, that will be Glorious. His splendor and His majesty and His Power on display for eternity!
5. our response. 私達の受け答え
Will you be with Him? Do you know Him as your Lord? Have you asked Him to forgive you for your sins? You have today's choice to make now. It's an important decision no one but you can make. Will you make your choice this morning to follow Jesus today?

The Government's Building Information Modelling (BIM) mandate provides an opportunity for the construction industry to work in a more collaborative and integrated way to achieve a better built asset. Contractual issues have the potential to hold back the adoption of BIM on projects. Architect Stefan Mordue looks at the changes required to the popular standard forms of contracts and the incorporation of the BIM Protocol for use on a Level 2 BIM project.
Background to the BIM Protocol
The UK Construction Clients Group Report 2011 stated that "little change is required in the fundamental building blocks of copyright law, contracts or insurance to facilitate working at Level 2 BIM maturity". However, it did acknowledge that some essential investment is required in simple, standard protocols and service schedules to define BIM specific roles, ways of working and desired outputs.
The idea of a supplementary protocol outside of the contract means that a gradual approach to BIM adoption could be achieved without the need to redraft contracts.
BIM Protocol
The Construction Industry Council (CIC) BIM Protocol is a supplementary legal agreement that is incorporated into professional service appointments and construction contracts by way of a simple amendment. The specific text which incorporates the protocol into direct contracts is referred to as the Model Enabling Amendment. The amendment is undertaken by the contract administrator appointed by the client for setting up the contract. The CIC BIM Protocol guidance notes that the specific wording of the amendment should be considered on a contract-by-contract basis.
Essentially, it is a set of add-on contract clauses. The intention of the protocol is to promote the ethos of BIM and collaborative working, by placing an obligation on parties to provide and share information at defined stages of a project.
The protocol should be initially appended to the contracts of the design team, prior to the contractor being appointed if following a design and build procurement path.
Once appointed, the building contract should make the contractor responsible for providing models and should also include the protocol. The CIC BIM Protocol guidance suggests that if consultants are to be novated (or their contractual rights and obligations are transferred), then the protocol will allocate the responsibility between members of the design team.
When members of the design team are appointed, the procurement contracts manager appends the BIM Protocol to the building contract. The protocol guidance also recommends that the project team members arrange for the protocol to be incorporated into subcontracts, which concern the use, production or delivery of models to the extent required to ensure that the project team members complies with the protocol. By including the protocol in subcontracts, it ensures that subcontractors are subject to clause 6, which covers copyright and licence to use information forming the model.
The CIC BIM Protocol focuses on the project as it evolves, and Level 2 BIM "collaborative BIM" rather than Level 3 "integrated BIM".
In Level 2, information models are "federated" together in a Common Data Environment and, therefore, it remains clear who the originating author of that information is.
Level 3 "integrated BIM" (where all parties are working on a single model in the cloud) will blur the boundary between the levels.
How does it work?
The protocol covers aspects such as the licensing of models and the permitted purpose of the information. Rather than state a specific use for each model, the general concept "Permitted Purpose" is used to define the licensed use of the models (see section 6 of the protocol). It also covers liability including corruption of data and content by making it clear that the Project Team Member gives no warranty to the integrity of any electronic data if delivered in accordance with the protocol (see section 5 of the protocol).
The protocol covers how information is to be produced, by whom and when. The Levels of Detail (LOD) and the Model Production and Delivery Table outlined in Appendix 1 specify what LOD each information model is to contain, which party is to deliver it and by what stage.
"Information Requirements" outlined in Appendix 2 sets out how information is to be produced, delivered and used within the project.
The protocol mandates that the employer appoints a new role "Information Manager" that will undertake the "information management role" (not to be confused with a BIM Co-ordinator). This role could be carried out by the design lead, project lead, consultant or contractor at different stages during the project, for example, or the employer may choose a standalone information manager. It has no design responsibility. The CIC BIM Protocol, Outline Scope of Services for the Role of Information Management is available from the CIC website.
Which contract?
The Construction Strategy 2011 announced the Government's intention to increase efficiency and eliminate waste by moving towards using only standard forms of contract with minimal amendments. The strategy recommended the use of:
New Engineering Contract (NEC3), The Joint Contracts Tribunal (JCT) Constructing Excellence and Association of Consultant Architects (ACA) Project Partnering Contracts (PPC) 2000, together with three models as the most appropriate models for a collaborative process that would also allow early contractor involvement.
It further recommended three procurement models, which included, Cost Led Procurement, Integrated Project Insurance and Two-Stage Open Book.
The Government has produced a number of guidance documents on the new models of construction procurement, which are based on the evidence and feedback on use on the Government's trial projects.
A report by Kings College London, Enabling BIM Through Procurement and Contracts, suggests that just looking for a mention of BIM in a contract is not the most effective way in evaluating a contracts suitability for a BIM project. Rather consideration should be given to how the contract deals with key issues that are affected by BIM, such as clash detection and mutual agreement of intellectual property rights.
BIM requires collaboration and corresponding consultant appointments and subcontractors that cover the appointment of the whole team and not just that of the main contractor. The report highlights the International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC), JCT 2011, NEC3 and PPC2000 as standard forms of contracts that cover the appointment of the whole team as outlined below.
In 2013, NEC3 published its guide, How to Use BIM with NEC3 Contracts. The document suggests that BIM raises issues of rights and liabilities of the various parties involved and that the liability relating to each part are different from contracts that do not use a BIM process. It gives guidance on incorporating BIM Protocols into the contract as well as specific guidance on using the CIC Protocol within a NEC3 contract. The document suggests additional clauses that should be provided when using BIM which should be included as additional conditions of the contract under Option Z.
The guide also suggests the inclusion of additional compensation events, to deal with any eventuality where the consultant or contractor was unable to provide the Model, due to events outside of their control, and also if there was a situation whereby the employer was obliged to revoke the sublicence of information provided to consultants or contractor that was provided by others.
The JCT Public Sector Supplement: Fair Payment, Transparency and Building Information Modelling makes reference to BIM, and includes amendments to reflect BIM adoption. However, amendments for use on private sector projects have yet to be published. The supplement covers a number of the JCT main contracts and subcontracts and gives guidance on including the BIM Protocol into either employers' requirements or other contract documents.
PPC2000 was chosen as the contract by the Ministry of Justice to support the BIM enabled Cookham Wood Trial Project, in combination with a Two-stage Open Book procurement model. The PPC2000 Standard Form of Contract for Project Partnering (Amended 2013) makes specific reference to BIM, by setting out amended clauses that are relevant to BIM within Appendix 10.
The FIDIC standard form of contract makes no reference to BIM provisions within the contract terms. The contract does not state if an additional BIM Protocol is required, and makes no provisions for the key aspects of BIM, such as provisions for clash detection, collaborative working, early contractor involvement or agreed mutual deadlines for specific activities.
Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) Contract for use on Complex Projects
The CIOB Complex Projects 2013 contract is the first standard form of contract that provides for BIM clauses within its provisions and appendices. It allows for a variety of contract documents including an information model and makes provisions for the use of a Common Data Environment and allows for the selection from a number of BIM Protocols. This was revised, renamed and reissued as the Time and Cost Management Contract in 2016 to more clearly reflect the core strengths of the contract.
The BIM Task Group, the industry working group set up to help support and deliver the objectives of the Government Construction Strategy and BIM Level 2 adoption have provided a suite of BIM project documents that have been designed to be used as a suite and relate closely to one another. These are available from www.bim-level2.org.
The Task Group notes that:
The Employers Information Requirements (EIR) is the source of most information required to compile the BIM Protocol. The BIM Protocol requires the employer to appoint an Information Manager and also encourages the adoption of a Common Data Environment (CDE) and other aspects of PAS 1192:2 (which is the standard for information exchange to meet BIM maturity Level 2).
Concluding points
Although to support Level 2 BIM little change is required to standard forms of contracts, BIM is starting to be referenced and adopted within contracts. It is clear that as the construction industry moves from Level 2 to Level 3 BIM, a new contractual landscape will be required. Digital Built Britain, the strategic plan for Level 3 was published in February 2015. Aside from the development of open data standards and the creation of a cultural environment which is open to collaborative ways of working, the plan includes the establishment of a new contractual framework for projects that have been procured with BIM. It is envisaged that this framework will ensure consistency, avoid confusion and encourage open, collaborative working.
For the time being, however, existing contracts can be used with minimal amendments to help the construction industry move towards Level 2 BIM.

Teachers produce talents and new principles or may make an effort to foray in various areas. Some educators work also a few train 10 hrs every day and also the minimum each week. A excellent student who's wellbehaved and wellmannered is welcomed by every teacher. So teachers, in case you've got no goals that are written, it's the opportunity increase your own work and to write some out. The teacher might possibly also be energetic in class in their relationship with students. Not all teachers are going to have the same resume.
Students should not be allowed to be lazy, plus they ought to be requested to finish all missions punctually. A process has to become utilised to lead students to question queries to acquire their own replies. Recess enables college university student to obtain exercise , create friendships and take a break from classroom job, as you might well be conscious .
Follow the contact information with the contact data of someone to whom you are going to be addressing the correspondence. Compose this flawlessly to whom you are addressing the letter in the start of the letter's title. A touch of interest is simply one of the most essential and crucial cover letters that should follow certificates, teachings and other records which will make the contents of the work app.
The objectives element may be the ideal approach to earn job resumes. Career element in resume will probably incorporate the truth of your accomplishments that you simply prefer to achieve functioning in the specific status in the business. Work encounter section needs to incorporate of your employments .
Gaining the interest of companies that are potential could be one of many difficulties when searching for job that students confront. Student responsibility is one of the absolute most critical traits that are desirable. An Goal is what type of occupation you want. A well-defined objective can be precisely the most economical tool which can discover the attention of a hiring manager from the beginning. It needs to function as no more more than just two lines In the event you opt to have objective. You are called to sum up your livelihood objectives. A career goal needs to be created in a way that is persuasive.
Classes do not enable the pupil take the credit for some other faculty. Have a look at tutorials online or see if your office comprises training courses. Teaching experience is advised, but it is maybe not always required. Or, even when you have zero work experience, set your skills and, if you are ready to, just how you got them. On occasion, you may not have the required work experiences that are relevant with the occupation. When you're attempting to adjust your livelihood, it really is ideal.
Don't be vague or your employer may possibly not be able to detect what you are after. Employers love to understand that you have taken the work that is extra to employ for their corporation.

Customer Testimonials
Sammie and his team at Mr. Electric are absolutely wonderful. We had several electricians come look at our breaker panel that needed to be replaced and upgraded (needed for a new appliance that pulls a lot of watts), give us recommendations and provide quotes. When Sammie came out he wasn't pushy, he wasn't trying to under or over sell us to get the bid, he was honest, suggested what was best and gave us a fair price. From the time he visited we could tell that we could trust him. He didn't have the lowest price, but we hired him because we felt we could trust his experience and word to get the job done right. They came out as promised - even in subzero temperatures and did an outstanding job. We told him some of our future plans and he was helpful in giving suggestions on how to hook things up with our new panel. What sent us over the edge is the fact that they provide a lifetime warranty. We could not be more pleased with the service or product installed - they did a great job and were very professional.
Lastly, I wanted to note that after they packed up and left they were further attentive to our concerns. We had some breakers pop after the install and we asked if there was anything we should look at to be proactive considering the panel had just been replaced. He sent someone out promptly to check it and make sure there was nothing wrong with the wiring in the panel. They found that we have a loose cable on our stove and that was what caused things to pop - after the visit Sammie personally sent us an email to check in on us.
If you are looking for great service with an electrician who is true to his word, performs quality work, always has a smile on and is professional, Sammie with Mr. Electric is the best choice!
- Amy Claire
I called for service and had two electricians arrive at my house within two hours of initial call. Both were very courteous and extremely friendly. They explained exactly what our options were and gave us a detailed description of what they would do. Very fairly priced and outstanding service.
- Happy Homeowner

I am a Mac loyalist, and a little bit of a Mac racist. I mean, I will use Windows if absolutely necessary*, but only if absolutely necessary*. I mean, it's shiny, it always treats me right, and it makes witty
jokes ads about other boys computers. *cough* No, I don't suffer from acute anthropomorphism of electronics✢, why do you ask?
I also started a Youtube account. This was prompted by my SHINY new jewelry which I had to show off, and mainly intended for my close freinds. (They seem to think me being incoherent and giddy is amusing/loveable/entertaining. You see why I'm friends with them? I NEED that ego-stroking❧!)
I've been making videos. (All three of them!) Without edits. Or grammar. WHooooooo, I'm grammar-free! And Bahnree, who I dearly love, suggested I use edits, on more videos. I whined and complained and agreed. Because I'm just gracious like that.
Actually I told Fraulein that she had to make a vlog. Because I'm just courteous like that. So we filmed four takes, with the intention of editing them together. And then we opened iMovie. And the abusive behaviour started.
It was a bit confusing at first, but I figured we could get through it. We cut out the bits we didn't want, added an effect or two (crickets sound effects!) and then the audio disappeared. Um, what? So we re-imported the offending clip and tried again. And again. And Again. It kept loosing the clips? Finally we get it to work, and go to export it. (this is an hour and a half later?) The benighted thing FREEZES. Okay, that would be fine, only IT DIDN"T SAVE. *anger*
I don't feel like going over all the pain and repedative steps of pain. Suffice it to say, two hours later, I am not speaking to my OS. It DECIVED me. *sulks* I want to like your iMovie, OSX, really I do, but no. Just no. I can't take that kind of abuse from my computer. I'm a delicate and easily angered person, that's why I came to you in the first place! Just take iMovie aside and give him a talking to, and I"m sure we can get along just fine in the future. Don't bother to talk to me before iMovie has been punished. *lofty*
*turns away*
*Absolutely Necessary. "No, you may not use your personal laptop on the secure network." "No, our budget does not allow for a mac in addition to the other public-use machines." "No, we only have the one computer in the college, why do you ask?" And things of that ilk.
✢Anthropomorphism of Electronics. Don't worry, Yinsen, honey, they didn't mean those mean things. You just stay over here with me, I'll recharge your battery and it'll all be fine.
❧ Ego-Stroking. "You're so pretty… *stares*"
