Hendro Wiyanto: What was your first reaction when you learned of the FPI's demand to have the work by Agus and Davy removed from the exhibition because they saw it as a pornographic and disrespectful affront to the sacred teachings of Islam?
Jim Supangkat: I considered the consequences of the demand. The FPI is a group known as radical and militant, and so I expected we had to be ready for attacks and destruction. But the newspapers clearly stated that there would be no anarchistic activity. Instead, the FPI would resort to legal measures. So my first thought was that the work by Agus and Davy wouldn't have to be removed after all.
But then the FPI brought together 500 people, who gained the permission from the police to stage a demonstration. Because of faulty information, half of them marched on the headquarters of Bank Indonesia on Thamrin Street; they were taken away by the police in the district of Tanah Abang. Yet some 250 demonstrators came in buses and trucks to the Museum of Bank Indonesia, where the Biennale was held.
The TV infotainment programs turned the work by Agus and Davy into the talk of the town, since one of the figures presented in the nude in this work is the popular film star Anjasmara. This probably incited the public dispute, since the FPI's protest quickly gained the sympathy of many Muslim people. When a few Muslim leaders were interviewed, they denounced the work.
I don't believe that all Muslims agree with the FPI. I do believe, though, that none of the Muslim organizations would deem the nakedness presented in Agus and Davy's work religiously acceptable. What I feared most was a religious conflict on a broader scale.
Wiyanto: As the chief curator of the Biennale, did you ever think that this work could provoke certain groups?
Supangkat: Yes, and I wasn't the only one. The co-curators and participating artists of the Biennale thought the same thing: this work could easily attract the attention of infotainment producers and, subsequently, the FPI. But since I believe in the freedom of expression, I didn't ask Agus Suwage and Davy Linggar to modify their work.
Wiyanto: Hadn't you heard of the FPI terrorizing or intimidating the Utan Kayu Community in Jakarta because they saw it as an Indonesian establishment where liberal Islamic ideas were increasing? [1]
Supangkat: Of course, I followed the development of the "war" between the FPI and Utan Kayu Community. That was how I knew of the FPI's power.
Wiyanto: In your opinion, what is the main concern in this work by Agus and Davy, which uses digital image processing to show almost naked celebrities? Why did the two artists choose to show celebrities – subject matter that automatically encourages sensational reports in the infotainment media?
Supangkat: The work by Agus and Davy depicts urban space with a very personal atmosphere. Imagine an apartment, condominium, or mansion, where the residents enjoy an unlimited privacy. Ironic tensions develop here, for instance, by having a pedicab used as a swing chair, which emphasizes what Agus and Davy are telling us: this work is not about celebrating urban space. The pedicabs can be understood as a parody, because they remind us of the pedicab drivers who moved into the cities during the urban migration, but were never categorized as typical city dwellers.
This work reflects the theme of the Biennale: cities are not only inhabited by urban dwellers (the civil society aware of its civil rights), but also by poor urban dwellers (chained to life in the community and unaware of their civil rights). They come from rural areas with a long history of poverty. Although they often make use of urban symbols to keep abreast of current trends, the urban lifestyle is strange to them.
Regarding the idea of presenting naked celebrities in this work, I don't see any significant reason why the nakedness should be interpreted as having a specific sense. This is something the artists have to explain for themselves.
In the work by Agus and Davy, the model's genitalia are covered with white circles. These circles were deliberately added by the artists, using the digital process. But on TV and in press photographs, these have the effect of a censuring procedure. This attempt to produce sensational effects can be misleading and trigger many different reactions. People who never see the work in its entirety might think that the models are completely naked and displaying their sexual organs in public.
Wiyanto: How did the FPI voice their demand? Was it put forward legally, in writing? Have any efforts related to this been made?
Supangkat: Their objections were published through the free press, but no letter or notification of any kind was sent to the organizers of the CP Biennale 2005. It was only after they demonstrated that they sent their report to the police, in order to have it forwarded to the court. The details of the report firstly concerned the exhibiting of the work by Suwage/Linggar, which the FPI considered pornographic; secondly, it accused the work of disgracing religion. The FPI declared that they were taking legal action against Davy Linggar as the photographer, as well as the models Isabella and Anjasmara, and the organizers of the CP Biennale 2005. Agus Suwage's name was left out of this list.
As the exhibition space owner, Bank Indonesia was issued a summons by the police. On October 12, the Manager of Logistic Planning of Bank Indonesia is meeting with police officials, together with the staff of his legal office. After that, it's going to be my turn, I suppose. But I feel relaxed about it. Now that the exhibition has officially ended, I don't have to worry about the Bank Indonesia Building or the artists' works. In fact, I've decided to go to the summons alone and not involve anyone else in the case. And I don't believe that a lawyer could help me. I'll go with my invisible partner, my guardian angel.
Wiyanto: You announced that, in two years, the CP Open Biennale will no longer be organized. Is that a final decision?
Supangkat: The decision to discontinue the CP Biennale is final. To the artists, who expressed their sympathy and regret about terminating the CP Biennale, I said, "The CP Biennale has to die like a martyr, but the CP Foundation and myself are still alive."
Wiyanto: In your opinion, after this incident will the 'religious control' carried out by certain groups have a greater effect on contemporary art in Indonesia? Will a kind of resistance develop among Indonesian artists in response to such imposed control?
Supangkat: I don't think that the FPI represents the majority of the Muslims, even though the principles they defend can never be denied by Muslims. But applying their protests to the field of art – protests that lie beyond the platform of art and the problems of the modern world – can only lead to us reaching the wrong conclusions. Any attempted resistance, and, even worse, if this is merely rhetoric, could only be connected to accusing Islam of opposing the freedom of expression, and finally, to accusing Islam of opposing art. In my mind, drawing such a conclusion is unfair, and it worries me that such rhetoric will be soon adopted by the West. My question is this: Can people of the Western world understand this to be an incident that could only take place as the result of civilizations clashing?
Wiyanto: In your opinion, is it necessary for curators in Indonesia to appropriate a religious knowledge or a certain religious understanding? In a recent discussion in Jakarta on religious pluralism, the religious attitude was also formulated as "tolerating the intolerant". Do you feel that your response to the protests now puts you in such a position?
Supangkat: I think that your question alone is already an accurate analysis.

A rural Epworth home was damaged by a fire Thursday afternoon.
The fire broke out at a house northwest of town at 23869 Old Highway Road shortly before 4 o'clock. The Dubuque County Sheriff's Office says the home, owned by Kenneth and Tammy Burds, sustained about 200-thousand dollars in damage.
No one was injured.
Fire departments from Epworth and Farley responded to the scene, along with Sheriff's deputies.
They say the cause of the fire remains under investigation, but it does not appear to be suspicious at this time.

Senior Colleen Boyd walked into the Center for Teaching and Learning. She went inside, walked down the familiar hallway and downstairs to the office of her independent study advisor, Writing Coordinator Paul Marasa. She took her seat next to him and watched him open up her manuscript on his computer. He sighed.
"Do you know how many times you have the word 'smirk' in this book?"
She sat and listened to him. She wasn't sure. She felt that the characters she created were smirking, but didn't realize that there was a noticeable repetition.
"Are you sure they're smirking? Do they always need to be smirking? Maybe there's a half grin, a side grin, a sheepish grin?" Marasa said.
Taking notes and realizing this could be altered, the work ahead of her seemed manageable, but never-ending.
Just before her 17th birthday, Boyd started writing half a page every day, writing a novel based on an idea she had gotten from the album "Black Swan" by the band Story of the Year. She sat in her bedroom in Oberlin Park, Kan. listening to the song "Angel in the Swamp" on repeat.
Despite being a busy junior in high school, Boyd took to paper and penned the manuscript in just nine months.
Upon finishing this rough draft, Boyd shared her story with her family. Her mother, Kathy Boyd, took it everywhere.
"She mentioned that she was writing, but all of a sudden it was done, and it was quite thick and we realized how much she'd actually done," Kathy said.
Boyd was not always inclined towards writing. Her preferences lay in the realm of the visual arts, but while writing a final paper for her junior year English class she thought that writing might just be her forte. Still unsure, she took an elective in creative writing her senior year and that was it.
"This was sort of my epiphany. It confirmed everything I felt up until then about writing."
A few months later Boyd made her way to Knox College to pursue a major in creative writing. Boyd took an independent study in which she edited, revised and re-wrote her novel. A member of the TRIO program, she teamed with Marasa in the CTL.
"We were marching through a lot of pages and I wanted to make sure that it was clean. I wanted her and the novel to look good physically," Marasa said.
After a term of editing and revising, Boyd decided to find representation. She used the summer to send out query letters to various agents. In November she found Leticia Gomez, who owns Savvy Literary Services in Texas, an agency focusing on young adult fiction. Gomez pushed the novel to publishers, and Boyd had her share of rejection but got some good news when Spencer Hill Press, located in New Hampshire, informed her that they were interested in her book.
This was the summer before her junior year and before she was to leave to study abroad in Scotland. SHP wrote that, to Boyd's relief, they liked it, but that it would need more revising, editing and rewriting.
"It was inspiring and of course I followed their instructions and rewrote, but now I had belief that they actually liked my work." Boyd said.
The process became tedious and exhausting; working on school in Scotland and returning home only to receive more feedback from SHP to "change this, maybe it could be better if you re-worded this." It seemed to never end.
"You want it just to happen, but the process is important É But you want it all to happen at once and be done," Boyd said.
A few days before she had to return to Knox, Boyd was hanging out in her room, surfing her computer when she noticed an email from Spencer Hill Press: Official publishing date.
"Oh my God." Boyd felt an overwhelming sense that after her laborious efforts over the last four years an official date had been set to release her novel. She quickly left her room and scurried over to the kitchen where she found her mother.
"Guess what."
With the Dec. 2013 release date set, there was one more year to perfect the book, create original cover art and promote the novel. The novel has a lot to do with nature and swampland, so Boyd wanted the cover to reflect as such while also alluding to the fantastical angel which serves as the novel's subject. SHP has their own cover artist who worked with Boyd, sending her sample mock-ups. She would send her suggestions back until they had reached satisfaction.
Over the following spring break, SHP sent Boyd promotional bookmarks which she then took to a variety of bookstores and libraries in the Kansas City area. A shy individual, Boyd remembers being nervous, but people were very encouraging. Her novel tells the tale of Rylan, a teenage boy going through life smoothly until he experiences an incredible accident that alters his life from then on. He learns fantasy is real, including Ivy, the swamp angel.
Marasa insists that marketability was not Boyd's goal.
"Any of the strengths or weaknesses of the book don't come from her attempt to fill market. She just really wanted to write, through fantasy, about what it's like to be in high school."
A few days before Thanksgiving, Boyd arrived home and went up to her parents' bedroom and started filling in her mother about how the term wrapped up. Stopping her, her mother pointed out a large cardboard box in the corner.
"This came earlier today," her mother said, trying to conceal her excitement.
Boyd suspiciously walked over to the box and opened it up. It was full of copies of "Swamp Angel," her book that was to be released in just under a week. She looked at her mom.
"This is real."
Boyd has achieved the literary dream: she is 22, not yet graduated from college and already has her first book out and available for purchase.
Boyd admits that Knox serves primarily as a tool for her to become a better writer. While she finds that her characters are inspired by friends and family, as well as herself, this is a subconscious act on her behalf.
As for what will come next, Boyd has already sent in two other manuscripts to her agent and is in the process of working on a fourth. She hopes to work within the publishing industry in addition to continuing her writing. She has interviewed for a job with Andrew McNeal, a publishing company based in Kansas City, Miss., and hopes to be able to work in a city that keeps her close to family.
"There is no greater fulfillment than finishing something like this. You learn so much about yourself when you're writing. You lay out your thoughts and feelings into the story, even some you didn't know you had. If you can do this, you can do anything."

Brand & Product Launch
"Creating a new category to create the category leader."
If you're into health and fitness then undoubtedly you will have encountered protein shakes and sports waters.
Protein shakes are packed with calories. Sports waters tend to be high in caffeine and sugars but low in protein.
But what if there was a protein drink that had the light taste of juice, was low in calories and high in protein?
This would shake up the market and would redefine a stagnant market.
ProWater wanted to hit the market quick and hard so as to get a jump on the bigger boys as they felt it was only time before larger brands started looking into new products like theirs.
But before we started looking at their logo and packaging, we carried out meticulous research of both the sports market and associated drinks. This allowed us to fully understand not only the competitions' strengths and weaknesses, but more importantly we discovered unisex behavioural patterns and emotional triggers associated with health and fitness.
Our Brand Category Insight and Brand Gap Analysis highlighted that our target demographic were well informed about all aspects associated with health and fitness, yet they felt under-served by existing brands. This meant that by promoting the drink an honest, 'does what is says' manner, ProWater would get instant recognition and sales.
Only two months after launch all sales targets were exceeded, resulting in 46 retailers stocking the new product after 6 months.

Glazed carrots are such a versatile and ever-present side dish, they appear on our dinner table any meal — from an average day to an Easter, Christmas or Thanksgiving celebration. They're so good, they can almost compete with the turkey as the star of the show.
This particular glazed carrots recipe calls for only a few basic ingredients. Carrots, sugar, butter, salt and pepper — are all things that you'd expect to find in your pantry and fridge. The sweetened butter sauce make them a must-have for our family. And they offer a nice contrast to all the other savory options on the table.
If you're wondering what other side dishes work great with glazed carrots, check out our green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole or vegetable casserole.
Glazed Carrot Ingredients You Will Need:
- bag of baby carrots, or any sliced up carrots
- 1/2 cup of butter
- 1/4 cup of light or dark brown sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
How to Cook Glazed Carrots
Cooking up glazed carrots is simple. I use baby carrots, but you can just cut up regular carrots into different shapes, like disks or sticks.
Put the carrots, brown sugar, and butter in a pan over the stovetop and put on medium heat. Stir the carrots occasionally to make sure that it doesn't burn.
Once the liquid reduces, caramelizes, and becomes more of a glaze, season with salt and pepper to taste. They're ready to serve when carrots are tender…but not overcooked! Dinner time!
Optional: For garnish, you can sprinkle in some chopped parsley, thyme, rosemary, or other herbs. They add a fresh pop of color as well as an extra kick of flavor. Sesame seeds gives a robust aroma as well.
Variations on Glazed Carrots
For glazed baby carrots that don't need as much attention, use the oven or a crockpot. To roast these carrots in the oven, simply put the carrots in a casserole dish, add in carrots, butter, and brown sugar and bake at 350 degrees for an hour and a half.
For using the crockpot or slow cooker, simply mix all the ingredients together and cook on high for 4 to 5 hours. Once the carrots are cooked or baked right for both methods, season with salt and pepper. There's so many different ways to make this easy dish, it makes it so simple to plan it ahead into your daily schedule.
You can also change the sweetener you use. Trade out the brown sugar for honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup glazed carrots. You can also replace it with any sweetener that's better for you personally.
What to Serve with Glazed Carrots
The carrots are best served with a meaty, savory entree with some sort of carb option. Some of my favorite entrees to pair with glazed carrots are also the most classic holiday entrees.
Glazed ham, roasted turkey, pork or chicken, prime rib, and more…that's how versatile this dish is. It doesn't clash with anything. I also LOVE it served on the side with meatloaf. (So stinkin' good.)
Meat, vegetables, now all we need is carbs. I would suggest anything that will do well soaking up both the extra butter syrup glaze and the meat juices.
This includes biscuits, dinner rolls, cornbread. Honestly, any bread will do. Mashed potatoes are also an option. The combination of these dishes makes for a perfectly classic American dinner. Enjoy!
Forget boiling and steaming and the other boring 🙂 ways of cooking carrots…glazed is the way to go from now on.

Mehendis and Mayoons are considered the most exciting events when it comes to Pakistani wedding ceremonies. It involves a lot of interesting acts, starting from applying mehendi, to singing songs and dancing all night long. While the bride sits patiently watching and being a part of everything prepared by her friends and family.
You are all prepared to get into the new phase of your life, be it arranged or what you wanted. Every bride is always eager and excited when it comes to her wedding. Surely making her go through every possible detail, striving hard to make everything be perfect. But, the unfortunate part here is that most girls end up getting the last seat because of their outfit. It just does not look right, making the entire event a disaster. After all, the portraits in those outfits last forever, and nobody wants to cringe over their ugly pictures in future.
There are different kind of ceremonies, big and small. Either inside the house or at a banquet. No matter where it takes place, it is very special for every single bride to be. Capturing all the auspicious moments into everlasting photographs. Being the center of everyone's attention, you would want to definitely look your very best.
Pakistani Dress Designs
Though several changes have been made and new trend are adapted over the centuries, the ceremony itself is the same. The traditions and cultures still remain how they were several years back. Different designs and prints have been incorporated. But the idea of the patterns and styles still remains the same. Even today you would come across a mehendi bride wearing ethnic mehendi dresses by Pakistani designers. The same old ghararas, and lehangas with a twist of the modern world trends, giving the bride a cultural yet classy look.
The ceremony involves more than just one day, and the thing that matters the most is the bride's comfort. The kind of outfit she is getting made, because nobody wants to ruin their very expensive mehendi outfit with mehendi smudges. Here are a few trendy mehendi dresses by Pakistani dress designers that a bride can opt for, for her special occasion.
Choose to wear bright and bold colors!
All ceremonies in Pakistan are fun, and happening. Also very colorful. So being the bride, it is necessary for you to wear something that is similar to the ambiance of the event. That is bright and colorful. Wear shades of dark green, yellow, and anything that is bold in different styles. There are plenty of colors to select from, so do not just stick yourself to the tacky old, traditional shades, or even a single color to be precise. You can go for different combinations as well, or maybe some pastel colors. You can come up with something very attractive by mixing up two different pastel colors. For instance lilac and pink. Just follow one tip and you would look the best. That it is your event and everything that you want to do matters, so do whatever you think would look best on you.

It is the most important day of your life, you are getting married! It does not happen every year like your birthday! And wanting it to be grand is nothing harmful. The new phase of your life should be celebrated in the best way possible. Although orange and yellow with shades of green are the traditional colors, they can always be mixed and matched with contrasting shades. These shades would definitely make you look unique in the pictures.
Some people are not a big fan of dark and bright shades, so they can always choose lighter shades like baby pink, mauve, light yellow etc. Just make sure of the fact that whatever colors you choose, compliment each other. In fact, combinations can enhance the entire outfit's appearance, uplifting your attire.
Choose carefully!
First thing comes first while choosing your outfit, which is the level of your comfort. Obviously keeping the latest trends and style factors in mind. Pakistani dress design shalwar kameez are preferred the most. Being the perfect alternative to ghararas and lehangas, which are more towards the traditional side. Playing with embroidery should be your motto, nothing is ever too much when you are the bride. But, if you want to avoid getting your clothes stained, go simple with embroidery just on the hem line.
Moreover, if you plan on going all modern, wear a skirt with blouse. You can pair it up with an embroidered jacket or keep it simple without any. You will surely steal the limelight in such an outfit.
Never compromise on the accessories. Whether the event is big or small, wear some jewelry. Be it just earrings. But make sure it syncs with what you wear. You can go bold with gold, but save the diamonds for your main event. Otherwise you can always wear floral jewels if you choose to look subtle yet dressy. They look tremendously gorgeous.
No-Makeup Look!
Do not plan on going bear faced either. That looks awful. Make sure you wear some makeup, be it just mascara and blush with a light shade of lip stick. Or if you love to look natural, go with the ever popular no makeup look!

One of the most ornate differences in this year's Christmas offering is that lots of the bottles and glass jars have a beautiful, iridescent sheen to them. It's such a subtle touch that has really brought a magical element to such a traditional brand.
Also, the likes of the annual Pine & Eucalyptus range has received a golden makeover, swapping the signature silver lids for a touch of gold instead.
In a stark contrast to last year's bold and bright 'Crazy Colourful' theme, this simple, iridescent touch has brought a subtle hint of the rainbow.
Orange Bitters Cologne 30ml, £48, Cologne 100ml, £96, and Home Candle, £47
One of the things I love about Jo Malone London is that they really listen to their loyal fans. So many people fell in love with one of their limited Christmas scents, Orange Bitters. In direct response to customer requests, they have returned with this fragrance but this time they've added a 30ml fragrance and also a smaller home candle so that people with varying budgets can access this limited perfume.
I always associate Jo Malone London with the most impeccable, kind and thorough service, and this reaction is a complete mirroring of that sentiment. Thank you for listening!
White Moss & Snowdrop Cologne 100ml, £96, and Deluxe Candle, £126
I am amazed at some of the new fragrances from Jo Malone London this year because they're so much more pungent than lots in the current line up. White Moss & Snowdrop is very powerful and sexy, super reminiscent of YSL's iconic Opium.
Don't let the delicate name fool you, this is one of their most striking scents to date.
Advent Calendar, £300
A 24-day count down of miniature Jo Malone London treats, this includes the new scents from this year as well as Orange Bitters and Frosted Cherry and Clove candles.
Luxury Cologne Collection, £370
For the first time ever, this trousseau will house every single Jo Malone London scent in one treasure chest. This is going to be exclusive to Selfridges and Brown Thomas.
House of Jo Malone London, £115
The House of Jo Malone always used to be a pre-made selection box of body and fragrance products, but people often fed back that they wanted to choose their own items to go inside which wasn't an option. So now, they've tailored this to house a collection of home products instead, allowing the House to live on in a different way.
Miniature Soap Collection, £36
This was one of my favourite launches from last year. This selection of soaps in all of their iconic scents allows you to get a feel for many different fragrances from the brand before you commit to one bottle. Perfect.
Christmas Cracker, £32
Can you imagine seeing this at the table on Christmas morning? Love the iridescent packaging too.
Limited Edition Pomegranate Noir Cologne and English Pear and Freesia Cologne, £96 each
Also pictured, a new limited Ginger Biscuit cologne, £96
Pine and Eucalyptus Collection, from £46
The Jo Malone London Christmas collection will land in stores from October 2018. The advent calendar is made in a notoriously small run each year, so if you're interested in one of those I would visit your nearest Jo Malone London boutique now and get on the reservation list. Otherwise, I'd recommend getting any of these things as early as you can, because once they're gone they mostly don't return.

Issaquah Residential
If you ever need to keep your home safe and secured by updating and fortifying your locks, let us Issaquah residential locksmiths give you a helping hand. We offer quick service at minimal cost to households in Issaquah.
Owning a home isn't easy – not only do you have to think of the bills and other expenses; you have to ensure that the home is safe from outsiders. This is especially true for households that have a lot of inhabitants, specifically children. Most households can't afford high tech security devices, so all they can do is to ensure that their locks can't be tampered with and destroyed easily. If you're looking for a respectable and quality locksmith, give us a call to get a list of our Issaquah residential services.
The most common reason why homeowners find themselves in need of a locksmith is because they get locked out of their own homes. This can happen when they lose their keys or if their locks are broken. We can help you regain access to your home without destroying your locks, ensuring that you save money in the process. If the locks are broken, we will replace them for you, as well as inspect other doors and windows to find other potential problems. This saves you from getting locked out of the house again in the future.
You may also seek our assistance if you need to have your locks changed. If you lose your keeps and you fear for your family's safety, having all your locks changed is the smartest thing to do. This is also a great option if you just moved into a new home and changed personal help. Any situation where you think someone untoward might have a key to your home calls for a definite lock change. We'll make sure your home is secure by changing all your locks, making sure they work and provide enough security, and point out other weak spots in your home.
Locks have a definite lifespan, and closing and opening your doors day in and day out can give it some serious wear and tear. Our friendly locksmiths will give you tips on how to extend the lifespan of your locks and how to detect whether or not a change is needed. If you should ever have any questions or are in need of our services, our locksmiths are just a quick phone call away.

"Jonah set out and went to Nineveh in obedience to the word of the Lord" - Jonah 3: 1-10
received this email in my inbox today. one of those prayer of the day things. made me think of the day we had the osce where nearly the whole batch mislabelled the bld cs during mbbs. totally NOT the thing u wanna be doing during ur final mbbs
my post in march 2014 abt it: http://sunflowerjuice.blogspot.sg/2014/03/fish.html
notable bits:
" First God sends him on a suicide mission, then a storm at sea, and now a fish eats him! Now if it was me, I might take that moment to complain just a little bit, but Jonah doesn't, he says: "I will sing a song of thanks. I will do what I have promised. Lord, you are the one who saves."
"the storm was just to stop him from making a terrible mistake, and the fish was the world's first submarine ride back to safety. God will do something amazing with you, even if you head in the exact wrong direction (I mean, you may come out smelling like fish guts, but still)."
" this is what i found &... i quite like it. haha. THE FISH WAS ACTUALLY SWIMMING JONAH BACK TO SAFETY"
keep on swimming~
yea we are human and we get easily irritated and frustrated with life. but what amazes me is that despite all our flaws and follibles, we always ALWAYS get saved. somehow, somewhere, someway. even though we go through storms and get eaten by fish, somehow we always get spat out onto dry land. smelling of roses instead of fishguts. even though i still feel like im in the middle of a fish at the moment HAHA. in the middle of my metaphorical bus journey that i kinda sorta didnt really plan for, i know that somewhere out there lies a happy ending. i know this with faith and truth because it has worked out every single time before. i know this becos when i close my eyes i can see the edinburgh rooftops and the snow falling and the footsteps in the snow. and i know that if He was with me then, certainly He will be with me now too. yes there is always a lot to improve but i think He knows that we are only human too. what i love about this faith is that - our God is always forgiving, you can always go back to him when you drift away, and when you finally come back, He will always welcome you back with open arms and generosity. which is something that humans find very very hard to do. and that is why this faith is so amazing. nothing else could have sustained me through all these storms.
ok. PREPARE PRESENTATION. i am such a procrastinator omg.

Well, the gig I was promoting on my website and Facebook page called Bands at the Baird has now been and gone and what an event it was. The weather was glorious and after a fun filled day of games and races at Hansel's own version of the Commonwealth Games called, 'Games on the Green', it was time for their own version of T in the Park, 'Bands at the Baird'. The Baird Centre is a new building that is part of Hansel Village, a charity that works with adults with varying support needs. Both events, 'Games on the Green' and 'Bands at the Baird' are just another example of some of the wonderful things that Hansel does to get everyone invloved and having fun. While I may be biased when I say this, as I work here, but I really do think this is a great place to work and feel proud to be part of an organisation that promotes independence and empowerment of all adults with a learning disability.
I arrived as the final band, Rough Cut, were playing to the crowd who were still partying after all the events of the day. The sun was still out but it had cooled nicley enought to enjoy sitting out, chilling after my long day at work to an array of upbeat, popular covers of rock songs such as, Journey's, 'Don't Stop Believing', and The Proclaimers, '500 Miles'. I missed the first few bands but judging by the staff and clients who were still dancing and singing away I can only assume the night went well. After the band had finished I asked for a few photo's and explained about my website and my love of all music but especially my love of finding and promoting local bands wether original or covers. A great day was clearly had by all. Rough Cut pictured below.

Meet Dr. April Martin ~ Neora Brand Partner in Lancaster, Tennessee
I joined Nerium International in December 2013 and have not looked back! I had never worked in network marketing before until Nerium, but I love it! I am a mother of 2 and work full time as an educator at a local university. I would love to tell you more about our breakthrough products and/or the business opportunity!
I can help anyone in the United States, Canada, and Mexico to order our products or begin a business with the company. Nerium International is now Neora. It is an anti-aging skincare company that is based on REAL results and REAL results! Several years ago, during skin cancer research at MD Anderson, and accidental discovery was made! A treatment using extracts from the Nerium Oleander plant had side effects of tightening of the skin and the rest is history! Now, you will probably search around on the internet and find a few articles that say our product is toxic, but you need to know these are totally false. There are several varieties of the Nerium Oleander plant. The one used to make the Nerium AD products is from the red flowering Nerium plant and is not toxic. Plus, I have been using the product for over a year and I'm still around!! Why do people love the Nerium products? Because they WORK!! Plus, they are simple. It only takes one or two steps to better looking skin instead of using multiple products. https://www.findsalesrep.com/users/3939
Meet Kathy Barnhart ~ Neora Brand Partner in Olympia, Washington
I have been using Nerium AD / now NEORA for 7 years. It is an amazing product that will deal with multiple skin issues: Fine Lines and Wrinkles, Discoloration, Uneven skin texture Enlarged Pores and aging or Loose Skin. For me, the uneven skin texture and redness in my face is remarkably better. What I like the most is how much better I feel about myself. Nerium AD / now NEORA was developed by a biotech company for skin cancer. After 14 years testing "trial subjects" in a 30 day sampling and having the test subjects say they want the product — they finally decided to find a way to bring it to the market. We get a 10% – 60% average improvement in a 30 day period with a 30 day money back guarantee. This is the first company where they care about the customer more than the bottom line! https://www.findsalesrep.com/users/1403

Meet Chris & Rebekah Preston, Zija International Independent Distributors in Gloucester, Virginia
Hi! In March of 2010, I was on Facebook taking a break from my online college courses, and an old friend was talking about this 'miracle tree', so I clicked on her page and saw something about this 'miracle tree' that is helping people all over the world. I had been researching and praying for ten years for something natural; I had tried EVERYTHING I thought, but within two days, I had remarkable results.
I sleep better, have more energy, and I even lost ten dress sizes in six months. My husband Chris lost 45 pounds. With these blessed results, we both agreed that we needed to share our story with others. By referring others through sharing our stories we were no longer having to pay for our products, and because I had been laid off from Corporate America a year earlier, I knew I could easily develop this into a home-based business!
We are so grateful for this amazing product and opportunity. Sharing our story with others is just part of our lives now. It is so rewarding to help people with their health & show them how to get their products paid for and grow a residual income from home. We are truly "Moringaholics" for LIFE!

Meet Lindsay Larocque ~ doTERRA Consultant in Timmins, Ontario
After about 5 days of using the oils she almost completely stopped coughing and by day 10 ish she completely stopped coughing and was able to sleep through the whole night without waking up due to a coughing fit and what a difference that made.
Ever since I seen the effects the oils have had on my daughter I decided to try them myself and that's when I completely fell in love with them. They worked for anything I used them for wether I felt nauseous, had a headache or and sort of pain I rubbed the necessary oils on and they worked like a charm.
Since essential oils have done so much to help me and my family I decided to educate myself the best I can so I could help others learn how to do the same. Visit Lindsay's doTERRA Website

Karen Larochelle ~ Arbonne Consultant in Grafton, Ontario
My name is Karen Larochelle. I am a Stay-At-Home Mom, Wife, Daugther, Sister, Friend, Volunteer, and…an Arbonne Independent Consultant! My life has changed drastically over the past couple years. For the past 10 years, I had been enjoying a fantastic and successful career in the sales & service industry. I had two sons (now I've got THREE!), a fabulous Husband and the life I had always dreamed of. Well…sort of. When I was young and pictured my future I realized it was always in two separate "silos". I pictured an exciting career learning about science & medicines, travelling and succeeding; while I was also dreaming of a life with my family, sitting down to home-cooked meals, playing outside, rolling on the carpet with tickle fights and volunteering in their school classrooms. The more closely we looked at our lives, the more we realized that one dream (career) was becoming increasingly demanding of my time and energy, and the other dream (family) was diminishing due to rushed lives, quick meals, daycare drop-offs and getting back onto the laptop after dinner. My husband and I took a good look at our lives, what we wanted to prioritize, and decided that I would leave my career and stay at home with the kids. We realized how blessed we were to even be able to make that decision. If that wasn't a big enough change for our family, we, at the same time, also moved away from my home town and started a new life out in the countryside.
I must admit, this was a wonderful change in all of our lives! Now we have the time to play together, talk about our day over a home-cooked meal and actually eat breakfast together without dealing with "the morning rush". However, what about my other dream? What about the exciting world of business? Is there a way to still be the #1 diaper changer, meal-maker, coach, lego-builder AND get the feeling of accomplishment by also being important to a corporation?
While I was at an Arbonne "Swiss Beauty Workshop" that a friend of mine was hosting, I was really listening about the important (and surprising!) information being shared about skin care, and Arbonne's philosophy of Pure, Safe & Beneficial products. I was even skeptical at first. The products couldn't be as amazing as they said they were…however, after purchasing a few products, then hosting my own workshop in order to get the whole RE9 anti-aging line from my host rewards…I was hooked. The products ARE unbelievable! Arbonne was quickly becoming a passion of mine, and so why not share this with others? Even now, after being an Independent Consultant for almost two years, I am only just beginning to visualize what this company has to offer, for my future, and my family's future. Expanding my business into the Health & Wellness side of Arbonne has been very exciting!
Arbonne has helped me be able to fulfill both of my dreams of family and a career and not only be important to a corporation…but actually OWN my OWN business! Arbonne has allowed me to be present in all aspects of my family's life. I work when I want, and as much as I want. Also, very importantly for me, Arbonne allows me to get out of my "mom jeans" and put on my pantyhose! To share my passion for learning about skin care, about what we are putting on our skin…on our childrens' skin, into our mouths and even ultimately, how we are earning the dollars that we put into our bank account. Sound good to you? Come join me! This is the most fun you'll ever have earning a living. Visit Karen's Arbonne Website

As Race for Bitcoin ETF Heats Up, SEC Identifies Cryptocurrency as a Top Priority in 2019
The crypto boom of 2017 caught federal regulators by surprise. The subsequent crash of 2018 forced them to closely examine the market, including the sale, trading and management of cryptoassets. Now, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is prepared to take a proactive approach to monitoring the nascent asset class at a time when more issuers are throwing their weight behind a crypto-backed exchange-traded fund (ETF).
Crypto Becomes a Priority
In the newly released 2019 Examination Priorities, the SEC's Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations (OCIE) has identified cryptocurrencies as one of six regulatory focal points this year. More attention and resources will be directed at the digital asset market due to its its rapid growth and perceived risks to retail investors.
"Given the significant growth and risks presented in this market, OCIE will continue to monitor the offer and sale, trading, and management of digital assets, and where the products are securities, examine for regulatory compliance," the report said.
The regulator added that it will conduct high-level inquiries on market participants "offering, selling, trading, and managing these products…" Market participants include broker-dealers, trading platforms and investment advisers.
The report was released less than six weeks before the SEC is set to make a decision on a highly regarded bitcoin ETF. Although the agency has rejected more than a dozen crypto ETF applications, a joint proposal put forward by VanEck and SolidX is believed to have the best shot of being approved.
That's because the proposed product includes safeguards to protect retail investors against fraud and manipulation. It also proposes to hold a repository of physical bitcoin as opposed to futures contracts and other derivative-based products. More on this story can be found here: SEC Delays Decision on VanEck SolidX Bitcoin ETF Until Next Year.
A crypto startup by the name of Bitwise Asset Management has also applied for bitcoin ETF product with the SEC. Like the VanEck-SolidX product, the Bitwise application is attempting to address the myriad of regulatory concerns put forth by the SEC in its previous rulings on crypto-backed ETFs.
If Bitcoin ETF Doesn't Happen by February, How Will it Affect the Market?
Japan Not Considering Bitcoin ETF: FSA
Reports that Japan was considering approving a bitcoin ETF were quickly shot down this weekend by a spokesperson from the country's Financial Services Agency (FSA). As Bitcoin.com and CCN report, the FSA representative said, "There is no such fact that we are considering approving ETFs which track crypto-assets at present. We are not currently considering approving them."
Last week, Bloomberg and several other sources reported that Tokyo's financial regulators were exploring the possibility of a crypto ETF tied to bitcoin futures. The speculation put the regulator in the same boat as the SEC, which has been reluctant to approve a bitcoin fund but has nevertheless invited public dialogue on the matter.
At present, Japan does not believe there is "constructive and social significant of trading cryptoassets derivatives," the spokesperson said.
Japan was one of the first countries to approve and regulate cryptocurrency markets, but a series of high-profile attacks on domestic exchanges forced regulators to adopt more stringent measures. Exchanges have also come together to develop a self-regulatory group to prevent further attacks from undermining the market.

Finally, multiple posts that live up to the blog's title. Last night I attended Thai Me Down at Ronnarong Thai Tapas Bar, hosted by the lovely Christine and Citysearch. Yesterday marked the debut of Thai Me Down, which will take place on the last Wednesday of every month. Each round, a new Thai ingredient will be showcased, with free drink samples and appetizers that feature the ingredient. This month, the ingredient was lemongrass.
The event was held on the patio of Ronnarong. It was on the smaller side, but with the cool breeze blowing last night, and it provided the perfect setting for an intimate gathering.
When we arrived, we were greeted by the friendly bartenders who offered us a shot of sake that we were to follow up with our choice of condiments, including peanuts, lemongrass, chilis, ginger, lime, onions, and fried shrimp. My favorite beverage of the night, which I didn't snap a picture of, was the lemongrass infused champagne. I don't know if they offer that on the regular, but they ought to. It was outstanding.
In addition to the sake, we had our choice of cocktails from the drink menu. Above, the Sake Sunray, with coconut, chili, lime, and lemongrass. Below, the Thai sangria made with sake, ginger, and lemongrass.
The first tasting was a hot and sour chicken soup, a clear broth with lemongrass, chili, lime juice and mushrooms. This was followed by a sardine salad, with lemongrass, basil, peppers, onions and a spicy dressing. One of the coolest parts of our tasting were the plates you see in front of the dish below. They are made out of pressed banana leaves and are pretty much as biodegradable as flatware gets.
The final dish we enjoyed was a Panang curry with string beans, red pepper, and either tofu or chicken and rice. I love Thai curries. This one was not too spicy and the vegetables were very fresh and still crunchy.
Thai Me Down happens on the last Wednesday of every month. If you have an idea for an ingredient or dish to be featured in the future, Citysearch would love to know! Many thanks to Christine, Citysearch, and Ronnarong for arranging the event.

"We freely offer up our appetites, wealth, and pride to relieve the suffering of the world, for the sake of our neighbors and God's joy."
- In confrontation and conflict I will seek justice and reconciliation rather than victory, and I will make any necessary sacrifice of my own person, pride or property to achieve reconciliation and justice.
[The following version of this story of is entitled "Consumed by Forgiveness" in the August 2011 edition of the Virginia Mennonite Conference and Missions joint newsletter, Connections. Quotations in this story come from articles in the Pueblo Chieftain and Valley Courier of CO and Mennonite Weekly Review]
|Chieftain Photo/Matt Hildner
Cindy and Herm Weaver and children Hope and Dillon lost their daughter and sister in October 2010 when she was hit and instantly killed by a pickup truck while out on her bicycle. Chloe Weaver was with Mennonite Voluntary Service in Alamosa, Colorado when she was struck from behind by young driver, Kyle Stotsky. Yet, in this wrenching tragedy an inspiring story of Christ's transformative love has beamed through the responses of the Weaver family. The Weavers stressed their hope for restoration and reconciliation with Kyle rather than incarceration and retribution. Herm, the conference minister with Mountain States Conference of Mennonite Church USA, made it clear that Chloe would have had no desire to have two lives ended and would rather have Kyle continue Chloe's legacy.
