Finding out you are pregnant is one of the most exciting moments of your life. With a little over nine months to prepare for the arrival of your baby and monthly (and then weekly) prenatal visits, it can feel like much of that time is spent in your doctor's office.
Your first prenatal visit will likely be the longest as there are many questions both you and your doctor will have. Here is a breakdown of the first prenatal appointment:
Medical history
If this is the first time you have visited this doctor or midwife, you will be asked questions about your general health and the health of your immediate family. This gives the doctor an idea of any conditions, such as diabetes or high blood pressure, which may affect the pregnancy. Previous pregnancies and current medications will also be discussed; all of this is useful in evaluating the current pregnancy. Your doctor will more than likely have you start taking a prenatal vitamin if you aren't already. Finally, you will also be asked the date of your last menstrual period, and this will help the doctor determine your due date.
Physical exam
A pelvic and general health exam is next. The general exam will consist of height measurement, current weight, and blood pressure. These will serve as a baseline for future visits and, with the exception of height, will be checked at subsequent appointments. Your doctor will likely check your glands, eyes, ears, nose, throat, lungs, heart, breasts, and abdomen. A pelvic exam is performed to check the health of your cervix and uterus. If you have not had a recent pap smear, this will be done during the pelvic exam.
After discussing a variety of general health information, your doctor or midwife should give you a chance to ask questions.
Prenatal testing
Your doctor will likely order a variety of routine prenatal tests and lab work. Some of the tests that may be ordered are a complete blood count, tests to detect a variety of sexually transmitted diseases, and tests that check for genetic abnormalities. Depending on how far along you are, an ultrasound may also be recommended.
What to ask
After discussing a variety of general health information, your doctor or midwife should give you a chance to ask questions. Weight gain expectations, dietary changes, and some of the changes you can expect your body to undergo should all be part of the information your doctor can provide. As this first visit can be overwhelming you may want to prepare a list of questions before your appointment. Some questions you may want to ask are the name of the hospital you will be delivering in, pain management options, and policies about labor induction, episiotomies, and cesarean sections. You will think up new questions at each visit so don't worry if you forget to ask something in this first appointment.

I'm not a planner. Indeed, spontaneity is fun for me & I enjoy being agile for various adventures, mostly. But I've come to appreciate that planning can often make things better & so I've learned to value the process.
With that said, I'm learning that God is both the Perfect Planner & Playful Partner. I can see the strategic hand of God when I look back at various seasons & experiences. But let's also be willing to follow God moment by moment in nimble obedience & undisputed trust!

Moses and the BLURNING BUSH by Pieter Barkhuizen, TH.D. Question: how many elephants did Moses take into the ark? Did I catch you out? Of course, it was Noah! Moses was the one they found in the river, the one who received the Ten Commandments, and listened as God communicated with him from a burning bush. Before we consider the discourse at the burning bush, let's first engage a short Bible study of the many parallels between Moses and Jesus. There are at least 50 very clear parallels between Israel's Lawgiver and Israel's Messiah. Here are some for your consideration: Moses, a Jew by birth, was born when Egyptians (gentiles) ruled over Israel (Exodus 8-10). Jesus, a Jew by birth, was born when Romans (gentiles) ruled over Israel (Luke 2:1-5). An evil ruler, the Pharaoh, decreed that all male Hebrew babies should be killed by casting them into the river (Exodus 1:22). Moses was the target. An evil ruler, Herod, decreed that all male Hebrew babies should be put to death (Matthew 2:16). Jesus was the target. Moses was hidden in Egypt for 3 months to keep him alive (Exodus 2:2). Jesus was also hidden in Egypt to keep Him alive (Matthew 2:13). Moses' mother put him in the river in a BASKET (Exodus 2:3). Jesus' mother put Him in a MANGER - (a feeding trough) (Luke 2:7). Now it's your turn. Can you find some of the other parallels? Here are some verses to compare: Exodus 34:29 and Matthew 17.1,2 Psalm 77:20 and John 10:11-16 Numbers 21:9 and John 3:14-15 Exodus 16:15 and John 6:33 Deuteronomy 1:23 and Matthew 10:1 Exodus 17:4 and John 10:31 Exodus 34:28 and Matthew 4.1,2 Jesus began His ministry in a super natural way - a dove descended on Him, and a voice spoke from Heaven (Matthew 3:17-17). Moses began his ministry also in a supernatural way - the story of Moses and the burning bush is one of the most well-known in the Bible (Exodus 3:1-4:17). Moses was being trained to be a pharaoh, but at age 40, he killed an Egyptian and fled. Exodus chapter three tells us that he herded sheep for his father-in-law, Jethro. One day in the desert, he noticed a burning bush. Perhaps he thought at first that lightning set the bush ablaze, as it sometimes happens. But then he observed that the bush was only burning, but not consumed. And then God spoke to Moses ... from the bush! Through the miracle-conversation, God told Moses that he should return to lead the Israelites out of bondage. But, Moses had a problem with this tall order, and he began to confess some of his apparent disqualifications for the task ahead. Have you ever felt disqualified for something you knew God wanted you to do? Ever made any excuses? I have done that many times. My ears are turning red as I continue to write. Keep on reading and let's see how our own excuses compare with those of Moses. At first, Moses confessed his inability. He did not feel qualified. "Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh?" (Exodus 3:11). Moses sounded very sincere. Nothing wrong with being humble. Of course, just 40 years earlier, he was so confident about his call to deliver his people from bondage, that he even killed an Egyptian. God spoke to Moses, impressing upon his mind a great lesson, still valid for each and every Christian-believer today: all is well if God is in the bush! God showed Moses that the burning bush would burn and not be consumed: the supernatural can be achieved if God is involved. God is the solution to feelings of inability. And then Moses came up with a second excuse, one of ignorance, "Who are You?" (Exodus 3:13). Again, Moses is honest and sincere. Israel wanted to know who they were worshiping. The Israelites had been exposed to many gods while in Egypt - and Moses wanted to avoid confusion, by identifying for them the only One and True God. If we have a teachable spirit, then ignorance is not a serious problem. Moses got the answer: "I AM THAT I AM" (v.14). The implication is that God is anything and everything Israel might ever need. In verses 16-22 God told Moses that the "I AM" was going to be Israel's great Provider. This lesson means a lot to me personally: whatever my problem, the great I AM is Jehovah Jireh, my personal Provider. But Moses wanted to get everything spelled out - he wanted clarity and understanding, and so in Ex.4:1, he told God about Israel's unbelief ... they simply would not listen to him. God had just told Moses what He planned to do - but Moses didn't believe. Yet another excuse! Do you think God will blame us, if we honestly confess that we have doubts ... even a little doubt? In Exodus 4:2-9, Moses got a prescription for strengthening his faith. You remember the story: Moses casting his rod on the ground, to the more challenging test of picking it up after it became a snake. If we are willing, God will build our faith. But, Moses had not yet run out of excuses and questions. In Exodus 4:10, we discover that Moses had a speech impediment, which created a feeling of inadequacy. Perhaps Moses stuttered. However, God had a way out. Remember the story of the burning bush: any old bush is good as long as God is in it! So the speech problem was no problem for God. And right here Moses made the blunder of his life! In Exodus 4:13, he asked God to send someone else. Suddenly God's anger was kindled, verse 14: And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses, and he said, is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart. With all the other excuses, God was very patient, but now His anger was aroused. Why? Because Moses said the one thing that made God angry: "I'm not available." And God responded by saying that He would use his brother Aaron. Moses would still have the responsibility - but he would have to share the privilege of being God's sole agent in Israel's salvation history. Is God calling you for something special today? Are you ready to fire your excuses at God? Please remember that the ONLY requirement God has of you, is AVAILABILITY. "Are you willing?" - is the big question. Feeling inadequate? Feeling like an old bush? Would you like to see what can happen when you let God inside the bush? Notice what happened to Moses, and how God used an imperfect person to bring honor and glory to His name. When Moses led over two million people out of Egypt, he didn't have all the logistics worked out ahead of time. He just knew that God had told him to do something, and he stepped out in faith. You know the story. Moses and the people left Egypt, crossed the Red Sea, and journeyed through the wilderness for forty years. But have you ever really considered the magnitude of what was involved? For that many people to cross the Red Sea, double file, the line would have had to be eight hundred miles long, and it would have taken thirty-five days and nights. In order to cross in one night, they had to have an opening in the Red Sea three miles wide just so they could walk five thousand abreast. To feed that many people would require fifteen hundred tons of food each day - or in modern terms, the contents of two freight trains, each at least a mile long. Cooking fires would consume the equivalent of four thousand tons of wood each day - a few more freight trains a mile long each. The eleven million gallons of water necessary each day just for drinking and cooking would fill a freight train of tank cars totaling eighteen hundred miles in length. And finally, the land needed for campsites when they stopped at the end of each day - 750 square miles - would have been two- thirds the size of the state of Rhode Island. It would be amazing enough had it been for just one day; but remember, they were forty years in transit. Moses trusted Jehovah Jireh's ability to enable him to do what he had been told to do. It didn't matter that to the natural mind it didn't seem possible. Moses believed God, and he stepped out in faith. Moses was a positive person - sure he had questions, but once his course was set - he couldn't be moved. I believe that Moses understood the Gospel, because of what I have discovered in his famous prayer (Exodus 32:7-35). "Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin - and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written" (Exodus 32:32). When we look at the original Hebrew in verse 32, it clearly speaks of salvation. The word "forgive" is the Hebrew word NASA, which means to "bear" or to "carry." Isaiah also used a form of this word twice in Isaiah 53:4, 12 - "Surely he has bourne (from NASA) our griefs . . . and he bare (from NASA) the sin of many. In Moses' prayer, he is saying to the Lord, "But now, if you will bear (from NASA) their sin . . ." This is ample evidence that Moses understood the plan of redemption. He believed in a coming Messiah, and an anticipated cross. He had a grasp on Jesus our Substitute: for Moses, for Israel, for you! Yes, God answered Moses prayer when He sent His only begotten Son to take OUR PLACE on the cross. Jesus paid it all; all to Him I owe. ...................

Ohio Teacher Stacy Schuler Convicted in Football Team Sex Scandal
Stacy Schuler claims she doesn't remember what happened with five high school football players
An Ohio high school teacher who allegedly had sex with players on the school's football team, then claimed insanity as a defense, was found guilty Thursday.
Stacy Schuler, 33, was convicted of 16 felony counts of sexual battery and three misdemeanor counts of providing alcohol to minors. She was sentenced to four years in prison.
Attorneys for Schuler, who resigned from her post as a health and physical education teacher at Mason High School last February, reportedly have argued that the alleged sexual acts may never have occurred, as Schuler has no memory of them.
But two young men who testified during this week's trial, which began Monday, described Schuler's greeting them in her home, flirting and massaging them with oil. They then continued in either the bathroom or bedroom, reports Cincinnati TV station WKRC.
Another student, a girl who served as Schuler's teacher's aide for three years, testified on Tuesday that when she visited Schuler after graduation her former teacher said she feared for her job after something had happened with some students.
"She told me that if anyone ever found out she already had her defense planned out and that she'd try to say that she was insane," the young woman said in court.
Schuler never testified on her own behalf. But the defense did call to the stand former students who spoke of Schuler's dedication to her profession and the help she offered them. According to WKRC, their testimony painted a portrait of a teacher so nice that she admitted to having a difficult time setting boundaries.
The Cincinnati Enquirer also quoted from the testimony of Kenneth Manges, a forensic psychologist who, after evaluating Schuler, said, "I believe she had a severe mental disease when she participated in those sexual acts with those guys."
Speaking on the stand, Manges went on to say that Schuler meets the legal definition of "insane," because the combination of medical conditions, medications and alcohol use crated a "perfect storm" that kept her from comprehending the wrongfulness of her alleged sex with teen boys.

What is reserved lookup for email? Well first of all, we will need to understand that in the DNS (Domain Name Service) world there are 2 types of DNS lookup, the first one is the common every day usage that is call "forward lookup" and the second one for advance enterprise grade that is call "reversed lookup". Let at them in details;
Forward lookup
This type is common one we all use; it's the system that tells the computer that what IP address this domain name represents. Easy computer need to communication with each other using IP address. But we human don't use IP addresses like the computer do we (not talking about IPv6 too). We use something that is more memorized able, called "domain name". Therefore we would need some kind of system to work in the middle be us and the computer, and that is the "forward lookup"
Reversed lookup
This something is similar to forward lookup, but forward lookup is for Domain-to-IP and reversed lookup is for IP-to-Domain translation. Why do we need this? Well email spam and spoofing are being so common these days, so well something that could identify that this email is actually from the owner of the email's mail server.
How do I check this?
It is easy open your command prompt and firer up "nslookup", here let check forward lookup
As you can see, I did a forward lookup on our email server, and the DNS system return me with IP address of domain name. Now let do a reversed lookup on this IP address we found from our return results.
Cool it's showing that is IP reversed back to the same domain name. This can true identify that if an email is sent from for example @yourdomain.com email server of 22.214.171.124 and doing a reversed lookup for that IP 188.8.131.52 giving the same domain name. This can true verify that this is from the actual email server of that domain.
Ok what does look like if I don't have a reversed lookup for my email server here the result;
Now let's try doing a reversed check for the IP address
Aha! This does not identify that I'm from the a reversed lookup setup here, then if the receiving email server does a reversed lookup check on my email sent to him, my email will get rejected by anti-spam reversed lookup check policy.
Here is a print screen of an email header that pass anti-spam reversed lookup policy on my another email server.
Why use reversed lookup?
Well, you don't want another people trying spoofing as being you and steal your customers identities now would you. Reversed lookup is a mechanism to protect you from this type fraud, also another conscience that you must take that now all businesses are now taking reversed lookup filter out spam emails in their anti-spam policy. Therefore to ensure that your communication via email go through with your partners, especially in the European Union.

Annual Mariners Trail Run set for Oct. 21
Mariners Bethel United Methodist Church will be hosting its 17th annual Trail Run on Sunday, Oct. 21, at the Assawoman Wildlife Refuge at Camp Barnes in Bayard, near Bethany Beach.
For the past 16 years, Bill Lord has been organizing and running the event, and it all started with a little proposal from the church to its members one day during a worship service.
"The church basically gave everyone in attendance a $5 bill and told them to use their talents to double the money to bring back to the church," said Amy Hughes, Lord's daughter, who also helps to run the event. "He started this event, and it's become a pretty big deal — so much so that the church really rallies around it every year."
The event has gotten so big over the years that Lord and Hughes reached out to Tim Bamforth and Seashore Striders event productions to help track all of the runners.
"We are all fully involved with this," Hughes added. "My mom does the finances for this event, and there are a lot of people that help as well. There are hundreds of volunteers that come out to help, from food to walking the course to helping clean up, and everything else that goes into it. It is pretty cool how many people are involved."
And all proceeds from the event go back to the church, to help with their CRASH youth group's mission activities.
"This all helps the Mariners Bethel youth group," Hughes continued. "They have their Bible studies on Wednesdays, and they do things on Sundays. They are going to Costa Rica, and they will also have a mission trip up to Philadelphia, which is the next thing they are doing."
The event is truly for people of every fitness level.
Participants who choose to run will be chip-timed on the course, either over 7 miles or on the 5K. Recreational walkers can participate in either a 1- or 3-mile event, and there will also be a Kids Run taking place. All events will begin and end at Camp Barnes.
The course showcases autumn views of the bays and marshes in the Assawoman wildlife area, and organizers said it is truly one of the nicest fall runs/walks in lower Sussex County, with hard-packed roads and manageable trails.
Following the race, there will be a home-cooked lunch served by the fireplace, with live music, and age-group awards for first, second and third places, and lots of other fun for everyone.
On-site registration opens at 11 a.m. on the day of the event, with the Kids Run going off at 12:50 p.m. All other races will take off at 1 p.m. Pre-registration discount rates are available through Sunday, Oct. 14. Pre-registration guarantees an event shirt. Costs for those pre-registering for the 5K or walk are $25, while the 7-mile run costs $35. Kids 12 or younger pay $10.
On the day of the race, all racers will pay an additional $5, with the exception of the kids 12 or younger. Lunch tickets for non-participants cost $7.
For details on registering for the event, check out www.SeashoreStriders.com. For more information on the race, call the church office at (302) 539-9510 or go online to www.marinersbethel.org. Sponsorships are also available.

What You Need to Know before You Buy a Bicycle
Riding a bicycle is considered to be one of the most beneficial activities in the life of any human being. Buying a bicycle is not a walk in the park. You will then realize that you have to consider some given factors to enable you make the right decision. There is no difference when it comes to the purchase of bicycles. When you are in the market and you want to purchase a bicycle it is important that you consider certain factors that will make your purchase worth. Below are some of the considerations you need to make when it is your desire to purchase a bicycle.
The first thing you need to have in mind is the quality of the bicycle.Ensuring that the bicycle you are buying is made of good quality material which can last very long time is very important and it is something that you deeply consider. To satisfy the desire of buying a product which can last for a long time, you need to ensure that the product you buy is made of a material that is of great quality which ensures that it has the capability of lasting for a long time. You need to check out and ensure that the material used to make a bicycle is that which will make it last longer time.
Due to different tastes and preferences are supposed to know that bicycles come in different designs depending on how the customer wants.Due to this reason, you are to ensure that you consider your best design when you are about to buy a bicycle. The difference in taste and preferences especially when it comes to design should be a driving force for you to choose your own design depending on your taste and preference for your bicycle and go for it. This is important in the light that to ensure your comfortability when it comes to design. It is also important that you consider the color of the bicycle while looking out at the designs.
The next consideration in this category is aspect of cost. In an event that you want to purchase a good or material oh, it is important that you consider caused since it's one of the most important aspects. The cost of bicycle should not be unreasonably high but rather it is supposed to be within your range considering your budget. Even though high-quality products or to attract high prices it is important to note that the prices of the bicycle you are about to buy should be relatively for the boy and that it should not be unreasonably high.

These Easy Flaky Herb Biscuits are the perfect simple biscuit recipe for breakfast or brunch. Full of fresh summer herbs. Vegetarian.
In a hurry? Click here to jump straight to the recipe!
… Actually, you know what? Don't answer that.
Biscuit love is such a special kind of love, friends. The layers of flaky, buttery, carb-tastic-ness just speak to my souuuuuuul.
Also, biscuits = vehicle for tasty jams and honeys and butters and the occaaaaaasional (ok, or the not-so-occasional) over-the-top eggs benedict.
Plus, let's be real, we had to balance out those healthy lettuce wraps from Tuesday.
Were they tasty? Yes.
Would they be more tasty if they were served with a side of these easy herb biscuits? Also yes.
These biscuits feel like summer to me. My little basil plant is kicking into high gear thanks to all of this sunshiiiiiiiine, and when (ok…if) I get my ish together enough to finish planting the rest of my herb garden ("garden" = three little pots I put on the concrete slab outside our apartment) these babies will be on REPEAT for as long as it's cool enough to turn on my oven and bake.
Although then when it's too warm outside to bake, I'll probably keep making them anyway. Hashtag WORTH IT.
Easy Herb Biscuits
- Prep Time: 10 min
- Cook Time: 15 mins
- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Yield: Makes 10-12 biscuits 1x
Easy, flaky, delicious herb biscuits!
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/4 cup chopped assorted fresh herbs (see recipe notes below)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) COLD unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1 cup milk (I used 1%)
- Heat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chopped fresh herbs.
- Add cold cubed butter and cut it into the flour mixture, using either your hands or a pastry cutter, until the mixture is coarse and resembles cornmeal. Be sure to work quickly to the butter stays cold.
- Add milk to flour mixture and stir to combine. The dough shouldn't be completely smooth – we want lots of butter pieces in there so the biscuits will be nice and flaky.
- Turn dough out onto a floured cutting board. If the dough is too sticky, gently fold a tablespoon or two of flour into it until it's easier to work with.
- Fold the dough over on itself a few times (I like to fold it in half, gently pat it out a bit, and fold it in half again). This gives you lots of layers for maximum flakiness.
- Pat dough to roughly 2/3″ thick and cut biscuit rounds with a 2″ biscuit cutter.
- Line a baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat and bake at 450 degrees F for 12-15 minutes until biscuits are lightly browned and cooked through. Serve immediately.
Use any fresh herbs you like in this recipe! I like to use a mix of chives, fresh thyme leaves, parsley, basil, and parsley. Chop up a small handful of whatever you have on hand and combine the chopped fresh herbs until you have approximately 1/4 cup in total. You can definitely eyeball the herbs in this recipe – it's fine if you don't have quite 1/4 cup of fresh herbs, and it's fine if you want to pump up the flavor and add even more.
The key to great biscuits is to work quickly and keep the ingredients as cold as you can. Touch the dough as little as possible and don't let it sit out – you don't want the butter to melt until the dough is IN the oven (that's what gives you those amazing flaky layers!)
If you want to use dried herbs (as opposed to fresh herbs), cut the amount of herbs in this recipe and use just 1-2 Tablespoons of dried herbs in total. Dried herbs can be much more potent than fresh herbs, so you'll taste them a lot more in the final biscuits. If I'm using dried herbs, I reach for thyme and rosemary for a deep, earthy flavor.
Add a few turns of fresh ground black pepper to the dry ingredients for an extra bite to these biscuits.
Add a handful of grated parmesan or shredded cheddar cheese to this recipe for cheese herb biscuits. You may need to add an extra splash of milk if you do this – just keep an eye on the dough and use your best judgment to get it to the right consistency.
I use kosher salt in this recipe because it's what I keep in my kitchen. Substitute 1/2 tsp. of regular iodized table salt if you don't have kosher salt.
Use buttermilk in place of the milk if you like. I never have buttermilk on hand, which is why I rarely use it in biscuit recipes. You could also make your own buttermilk by stirring 1 Tbsp. of apple cider vinegar into 1 cup of milk.

I recently took my Syrian imam friend to a Christian college to speak. He was a guest lecturer in "Cross Cultural Communications" classes, a "Theology of Missions" class and a "Church Planting" class. It was really interesting to hear how the imam approached these topics from an Islamic perspective.
Category Archives: Qur'an
December 17, 2014
Ahmad Aziz Al Ghamdi. He's a religious scholar, the former head of the religious police in Mecca, a group officially known as the Committee for Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice
But norms are changing as global culture is beamed into the kingdom through social media and satellite television.
December 1, 2014
In researching English translations of the Qur'an, I came across this article. Technically, there are not "translations" of the Qur'an, but rather interpretations. Any translation interjects a certain degree of bias, that is part of the reason people are compelled to make new translations of Bible and the Qur'an.
The Hilali-Khan is the most widely distributed English translation in the world and officially recognized by the Saudi government. However, a forum in Malaysia has "called out" the translation as promoting extremism.
This widely available translation, called the Hilali-Khan, made Muslims think that Islam was a religion hostile to other faiths, said academic and progressive Muslim thinker Dr Ahmad Farouk Musa.
The seeds of the "Allah" controversy, the custody battles between Muslim and non-Muslim spouses and the spread of anti-Christian feelings in Malaysia can be traced to a certain translation of the Quran, a recent forum on Muslim extremism in Kuala Lumpur was told.
The "Allah" controversy is where some Muslims teach that Christians should not use the word Allah to refer to God.
In Islam, What happens after death?
One of the people that submitted questions asked,
"What happens after someone dies in Islam? Is there a heaven and hell? What does judgment look like? Can a Muslim know his destiny?"
Imam Wasif Iqbal answered some of these questions for us in this series of videos. This video speaks about the first of two judgment scenes that each individual will experience. He also tells how our deeds in this life will be weighed to help determine the outcome.
If you have questions you would like to see addressed, leave a comment or send me an email.
Pruning the Tree
Diversity within Islam
I found this chart on the Washington Post last year. I keep coming back to it to help people see the diversity within Islam. If you enlarge the chart to where you can actually read it, fascinating details emerge; the percentages of Shia and Sunni, subsets of each group and about how many are represented in each subset. You will also learn from what subsets the Taliban, Al Qaeda and ISIS come. It looks a little like a tree to me. Perhaps a tree that needs some pruning. Some will dispute the overall 1.6 billion number of Muslims. I've heard numbers between 1.2 billion and 1.6 billion, but clearly this large number resists uniformity. We desperately need a more nuanced conversation when we speak about what "Muslims believe."
When I first started building relationships with Muslims, a few of my friends talked about the unity of Islam, the single umma (or community) of Islam. This was presented as a proof of God's blessing on Islam and as a stark contrast to the divisions within Christianity.
In time, I found that there was great diversity within Islam. So much so that it is very difficult to say Muslims uniformly believe anything. I have even heard the five pillars of Islam explained differently and the shahadah (confession of faith) explained differently.
With so many schools of thought and theology within Islam, it is important to see our Muslim friends as individuals and ask their individual perspectives on things. God has us all on a journey. Is this journey getting us closer to God or moving us further away?
Just as in numerous Christian circles we have different perspectives on how to interpret the Bible and live our faith, our Muslim friends also have different opinions about how to interpret the Qur'an and live out their faith. Christians would not all want to be lumped in with the belief systems of a Jim Wallis, an Al Mohler or Pat Robertson, much less so the systems of Jim Jones or Westboro Baptist.
As we describe the faith journeys of others, we need to keep the "Golden Rule" in mind. A nuanced description of others is useful because it helps clarify our thought process and challenges our assumptions. This is respectful and honoring. On the other hand, generalizations can be marginalizing, dismissive and condescending. This is offensive. Do to others as you would have them do to you.
Labels are the tools of antagonists' and politicians to manipulate an uninformed populace. They are the lazy man's way of categorizing others and not dealing with the nuance required to resolve most conflicts.
It is inappropriate and dangerous to make sweeping generalizations based on what one fraction of the whole professes to believe. Would Christians want to be dismissed as racists because the Ku Klux Klan wear crosses on their robes and twist the Bible to support their claims to superiority over the races?
As I looked at the chart above, it reminded me of a tree. If a limb of a tree becomes diseased, it may need to be pruned. Islam currently has the attention of the world, and people are arguing over who gets to hold the pruning shears and where and how to make the cuts. It seems clear that there is some pruning that needs to be done for the sake of peace and mutual thriving. Some who claim to be Muslims don't seem to think they can live in peace with the rest of the world. It may be a twig or it may be a branch. Some non-Muslims want to see the entire tree cut down, but not only is that not possible, its not smart to try.
Our Muslim friends also want to see this blight of Daesh eliminated. We can and must work effectively together to do so. It will be an ideological battle that defines Islam and makes space for freedom of religion for all. It will be a psychological battle for the individual hearts and minds of people on all sides. It will be a sociological battle as our society struggles together to overcome the challenges of this era but not also destroy or marginilize our neighbors. It will be a battle of international law and human rights and it may be a military battle as well as misguided souls, created in the image of God, are restrained from hurting others.
Is there a caliph leading ISIS? What does that mean?
As we sat in the mosque talking about the differences between the approach of Muhammad and ISIS, our conversation turned to this self-appointed caliph, Al-Baghdadi. The imam made it clear that Al-Baghdadi is acting from political motives and does not speak for Islam. He referenced hundreds, or possibly thousands, of Islamic scholars who have rejected the man. The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) released a similar statement condemning ISIS and advocating rights of minorities in Muslim majority countries. You can see that statement at this link S2S statement on rlgs minorities. This four minute video is just part of an insightful conversation. For more videos click here.
Imam Wasif, with other Sunni and Shia Muslim leaders in Louisville, called a press conference on August 25, 2014 to condemn the actions of ISIS. Afterwards we sat in his mosque and I asked some clarifying questions. In this video Imam Wasif says that press statements are necessary because people are not sufficiently informed about Islam. He references respected Islamic scholars that oppose ISIS and explains how orthodox Islam opposes groups like ISIS. Dr. Muhammad Babar also wrote an editorial for the Courier-Journal on this same topic.
Some Christian Thoughts on Fear
If you were to ask Muslims about the events in Iraq and Syria, you would get many different answers as to why these things are happening, which implies there is no single grand conspiracy that all Muslims have to "take over the world." Sure, there are some who have grand designs to rule the world under a single caliphate, but most Muslims would never follow the radical leader of ISIS. The deeper question is, "Why would anyone follow a self-proclaimed spiritual and political leader who advocates such violence as God's will?" Imam Wasif Iqbal asked the same question in a recent video interview that I did with him. According to the imam, this "caliph" has no appeal or legitimacy to most Muslims.
Many Muslims would like to see the world submitted to God. Christians would say the same thing. This world would be better off if we were submitted to God, but that should lead us to a neglected conversation between Muslims and Christians about what it means to submit to God and just how are we supposed to get to that point.
The Problem With Fear
1 John 4:18 Perfect love casts out fear. As long as we are fearful, we are not loving perfectly.
With people's heads getting sawed off with knives, it is easy to become fearful and/or angry. That is what the terrorists want. I've watched the news reports calling for war. Now, on this 13th anniversary of 9/11, the President vows to "destroy" the militants known as ISIS. Seems like we have been here before. Trying to bomb our way to peace seems misguided without a longer-range plan or asking ourselves, "How did we get here in the first place?"
Following the collective "we," the masses, the majority, frequently get us into trouble. As Brian Zahnd recently wrote in his book, A Farewell to Mars, "the crowd is nearly always wrong," or at least suspect. The crowd wanted to return to Egypt. The crowd wanted to crucify Jesus. The crowd has elected and followed some terrible leaders throughout history.
Peace Catalyst Articles
The purpose of Peace Catalyst International entries here are to create a greater understanding and respect among various cultures. How many conflicts could be minimized or totally avoided if we just understood each other an little better. In that spirit, these posting try to shed light on things often misunderstood.

Wales must ensure that the promotion of the Welsh language is not sacrificed on the altar of regulation in order to safeguard its future. That is the view of language planning expert Professor Colin Williams, who will be delivering the Henry Lewis Memorial Lecture at Swansea University on Tuesday, May 12, at 6.30pm.
The title of the lecture is "Where are we headed? New directions in language planning" and it will assess and discuss the relationship between the promotion and regulation of the Welsh language, new research directions in the field of Language Planning and will evaluate the potential of the International Association of Language Commissioners.
Professor Williams, who is Research Professor at the School of Welsh at Cardiff University and an internationally recognized expert in the field of language planning, says that Wales needs to be aware of the dangers involved when the regulation of language is overemphasised - with the law courts rather than communities and politicians shaping the future of the language. A member of the Welsh Language Board between 2000 and 2010, he believes that the flexibility of Board staff to take risks and pilot ideas has been lost somewhat following the establishment of the Office of the Welsh Language Commissioner.
"Despite its weaknesses," says Professor Williams, "the Welsh Language Board was acting as a sort of One Stop Shop for those who needed help and practical support. Now, that creativity has been lost from the system."
Professor Williams will also discuss the need for a change in attitude towards those who learn Welsh – by the use of the concept of a 'new speakers' - in order to better assimilate learners and immigrants.
"The concept of new speakers is more neutral, avoiding the mentality that we have native speakers, second language speakers or learners. Wales needs to learn from other countries such as Catalonia, which has run assimilation programmes for its 1.4 million new speakers over the past 10 years. I will ask whether the concept is a feasible one for us here in Wales."
The lecture will also examine the role of the new body in the field of language planning, namely the International Association of Language Commissioners. Professor Williams sees the Association as one which can authorize what is being done in the field in Wales, offering opportunities while sharing good practice.
"It is an exciting and promising development which can be of great benefit to us in Wales," says Professor Williams, "but there are problems too. It may be that some countries such as Sri Lanka and India, that have experienced violent ethnic linguistic tension, put pressure on the Association to intervene politically - something our Commissioner would not have the right to do of course. "
Professor Williams, who has been Visiting Professor at Penn State University, the University of Toronto, Ottawa and Western Ontario and a Fellow at Oxford University, is a former student at Swansea University and will be delivering the Henry Lewis Memorial Lecture in the lecture theatre where he began his academic career in 1969.
"I attended my very first lecture ever in the Wallace Lecture Theatre as an undergraduate and it's wonderful to be invited to give the Henry Lewis Memorial Lecture at the place where it all started!"
The lecture is in memory of Henry Lewis, the first Professor of Welsh at Swansea University in 1921. He was well known as a linguist and for his contribution to study of the Welsh language including his important publication Datblygiad yr Iaith Gymraeg (The Development of the Welsh language). The lecture is organised by Academi Hywel Teifi and the Research Institute for Arts and Humanities, Swansea University.
Professor Iwan Davies, Pro-vice Chancellor of Swansea University, said: "The Henry Lewis Memorial Lecture reflects Swansea University's long tradition as a centre for excellence for Welsh language research, which continues today at Academi Hywel Teifi, and the great names who have been part of the academic life of the University. We are very pleased to give a platform to this topical debate about the Welsh language today, and to bring different disciplines together to throw new light on the subject."
Henry Lewis Memorial Lecture / Darlith Goffa Henry Lewis, Tuesday 12 May 2015. Light refreshments from 6.00pm, lecture begins at 6.30pm at Wallace Lecture Theatre, Wallace Building, Swansea University.
Admission free and everyone is welcome. The lecture is delivered in Welsh, with translation facilities available. Organised by Academi Hywel Teifi and the Research Institute for Arts and Humanities, Swansea University.

- Guterres is a a vocal advocate for refugees
United Nations, Oct.7.─ Incoming United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has been and will always be a friend of Israel, former Israeli officials who have met with him told The Jerusalem Post on Thursday.
Guterres came to Israel in 1993 as secretary-general of the Portuguese Socialist Party and leader of Portugal's opposition.
He met with then-foreign minister Shimon Peres and then-industry and trade minister Micha Harish.
Following the visit, Guterres remained in close contact with Peres and former prime minister Ehud Barak, who both served under him in top posts in the Socialist International. Peres and Barak paid official visits to him in Portugal during their respective terms as prime minister, while he served as Portuguese prime minister.
"He was friendly and was definitely not part of the extreme Left in Europe," Harish said ...

A cool new image has been released for the upcoming film, Transformers: The Last Knight, directed once again by Michael Bay.
The upcoming film will be the fifth in the franchise and sees the return of Mark Wahlberg in his role as Cade Yeager from the last film, Transformers: Age of Extinction.
The first film in the series nearly ten years ago was a fresh intro into the cinematic universe for the Transformers brand.
Since then, the films have been getting progressively worse, but at the same time have appeared to be making more money with each new release.
As is the case with any big budget franchise film series, the box office return dictates whether or not a sequel (or five) are green-lit.
The way Transformers is going with Michael Bay at the helm, we'll probably see an endless amount of these films in the future.
While the films are pretty bad overall, there is obviously a huge market for them, globally – so why not?
If people are getting enjoyment out of the films then Hollywood may as well keep delivering it to them.
At least that way, these tentpole films can return a profit, which the studios can then spend on financing better quality, lower budget films on which they will generally lose money on.
Check out the cool poster below, featuring Optimus Prime ready to do battle with some type of dragon-robot-creature hybrid.
We've also gathered a gallery of images from the film that have been released to date, featuring a look at some of the vehicles in the movie as well as a first look of a cute, new robot character.
The Last Knight is due for release for the American summer season in June 2017.

'Hooked on a hooka' and other health stories
Our roundup of the health news headlines on Wednesday 23 February.
By Alisdair Stirling
Our roundup of the health news headlines on Wednesday 23 February.
The news that the NHS is set to lose more than 50,000 doctors, nurses and other key staff makes headlines in many of today´s papers. A survey by the union-funded website False Economy reveals that in England alone 24,000 posts will be lost in hospitals, another 10,000 in PCTs and 6,000 will in mental health trusts as trusts struggle to save 20 billion from their budgets.
The Telegraph says nearly every trust in the country will bear its share of the cuts over the next four years with some losing up to one in five employees. The Guardian says the cuts - revealed by a Freedom of Information request - could revive voter anger as coalition MPs had campaigned to save services during the election.
Nick Clegg put the future of Kingston Hospital in south-west London at the heart of his campaign, touring the maternity wing with his wife. Last week, the hospital cut 500 jobs, the paper says. The Express takes a markedly less hostile stance, reporting that the Government has denounced the claims as 'scaremongering'. While covering the cuts story, the Daily Mail also highlights a survey showing that NHS staff are 'rude, arrogant and lazy'.
The survey of 12,000 patients by the website Patient Opinion found many of those treated by the health service complained that they were dehumanised, humiliated and embarrassed by the doctors and nurses who were supposed to be looking after them.
And still on personnel, The Independent picks up on the grassroots revolt brewing among GPs against the NHS reforms. It focuses on motions to next months emergency BMA meeting - already reported in Pulse - calling for the association to switch from its policy of 'critical engagement' to one of outright opposition.
Back at the Mail, the story of a 'middle class' 13-year-old girl who has become addicted to smoking shisha is reported with obvious relish. The girl has been frequenting illegal Bedouin-style back street dens - in Blackburn, Lancashire - to smoke hookahs which supply flavoured smoke and unfiltered tobacco through a water pipe. With a session costing around £6, the girl, who remains anonymous, is reportedly spending £60 a day on the habit. The headline? What else but 'Hooked on hookah'?

(Beta Features) Get an Offer from Offers Marketplace
Offers marketplace in Beta version
This is a beta version of the feature and its scope and functionalities may change prior its official release.
Offers Marketplace allows you to browse through various affiliate network's content in one panel. In order to get an offer from Offers Marketplace, you should:
Depending on the level of integration, some of the steps mentioned above may be automated is some way for some affiliate networks, but not for others. Read the (Beta Features) Offers Marketplace article to learn about the different levels of integration and which affiliate network platform is integrated at what level.
I. Integrate Your Affiliate Network Account
You can perform an integration in Voluum settings or when applying for an offer. We recommend doing it before applying for an offer, because without a completed integration process you will see public offers only.
In order to integrate your own affiliate network account with Offers Marketplace from the Settings view, perform the following steps:
In Voluum, click the icon in the top right corner of the screen to go to Settings. The Settings view will appear.
Go to the Integrations tab.
In the Marketplace API tokens section click the Add integration button.
Select an affiliate network from the drop-down menu.
Provide an API token that you have obtained from your affiliate network platform.
Voluum Info: Each affiliate network has a different place of storing API keys and some affiliate networks do not store it the UI, but provide it upon request after contacting their support.
Click the Add API token button.
Upon integration, you will see the "Integration with an affiliate network has been successfully added" notification. The integration is visible below:
To remove the integration, click the button next to the affiliate network token.
Voluum Note: Integration with an affiliate network works per user, not per account, so it is not shared across an account where many users are collaborating with each other. Each Voluum user has to integrate his or her account with an affiliate network account in order to use an integration.
II. Find an Offer
Once you have completed an integration process you can browse private offers. In order to find an offer, perform the following steps:
In Voluum, go to the Offers Marketplace by clicking the FIND OFFERS tab.
Search for an offer in one of the following places:
The Dashboard tab: this lists offers recommended by stats from affiliate networks.
The All offers tab: this lists all offers that match your filtering criteria.
Once you have found an offer you want to promote, click it. The offer details view will open.
You can compare different offers with each other by clicking the button in the offer details view and opening them in different tabs.
Go to the next step of this guide to learn how to proceed from this point.
III. Apply For an Offer
The offer details view provides you with a selection of information regarding you offer.
Depending on the level of integration of a given affiliate network, there are four different ways to proceed:
You see the Add integration button:
The selected network offers partial or full integration, but the integration process has to be performed first for this affiliate network.
Click the Add integration button.
Provide the affiliate network's API key.
Click the Save API key button.
The Find offer or Apply button will become active. You will be able to find this offer or apply for it from an offer details view. Go to the appropriate bullet point below to read how to proceed.
You see the Go to offer page button:
The selected affiliate network has a basic level of integration only. Applying for an offer and configuration will be done in this platform:
Click the Go to offer page button. A new tab will be opened.
Provide your affiliate network's login credentials.
Apply for an offer and set it up according to affiliate network's documentation. Setting up tracking of offers supplied by some affiliate network platforms have been described in the Set Up Integrations section.
You see the Find offer button:
The selected affiliate network is partially integrated with Offer Marketplace, but it is not able to direct you straight to the offer page. You will have to find this offer manually in the affiliate network platform using an offer ID. Copy an offer ID and click the Find offer button. This will direct you to affiliate network platform. Use the copied offer ID to search for this offer.
You see the Apply button:
The selected affiliate network is partially or fully integrated with Offer Marketplace and you can apply for this offer directly:
Click the Apply for offer button.
You will see the Offer promotion rules pop-up window with a summary of what traffic is allows for this offer. Once you familiarize yourself with it, click the Confirm application button.
The request has been sent to an affiliate network and is being processed there. You can find this offer in the My offers tab.
IV. Add an Offer Element to Voluum
To be able to use offers that you have found in Offers Marketplace, you still have to add an offer element to Voluum. Depending on the type of integration, you can add such offers in two ways:
Manually, for offers provided by affiliate networks on a basic or partial level of integration. Get an offer link from an affiliate network platform and add an offer element as described in the Creating an Offer Element article.
Automatically, for offers provided by affiliate networks fully integrated with Offers Marketplace that you have applied for from within Voluum. These offers have to have the Accepted status. In order to add such offers to Voluum, perform the following steps:
Click the offer with the Accepted status. The offer details view will appear.
Click the Add to tracker button. The New offer pop-up window will appear.
In the New offer pop-up window Offer name and Offer URL text field have been populated with information from an affiliate network. You still need to configure tokens and add them to an offer URL. To learn more, read the Creating an Offer Element article.
(Optional) If you have added an affiliate network element from a template, you can select it from the Affiliate network drop-down menu and add proposed tracking token to an offer URL. To learn more about adding an affiliate network element, read the Creating an Affiliate Network Element article.
Once you have configured any additional settings, click the Save button.
Your offer, added from Offers Marketplace, is marked with a distinctive icon:

How many CPUs in production: 2
Why JBoss:
We chose JBoss for several reasons. The primary drivers were performance, feature set, and cost.
When we were setting out to develop our new content management platform for the Web, we knew that we wanted to go to J2EE. As we started looking at containers, we were immediately attracted to JBoss as an Open Source solution. As we learned more about the project and its active developer community, it was obvious that JBoss was going places and fast.
We deployed a test version of our application on JBoss 3.0 alpha last December. After testing, we put the first JBoss 3.0 beta release into production for a project that needed the new features. That application processed 25,000 complex transactions in the first 2 months of operation, easily keeping in step with the demand. And this was the beta version of JBoss!
As JBoss evolved, we've standardized on the 3.x JBoss platform for all of our J2EE work. JBoss provides the features we need for literally $0 cost.
What we've seen as an added value are some of the extensions the JBossGroup developers have added. Things like JBossCMP have quite a few features that enhance the Sun J2EE spec. These additional features have cut our development time significantly.
Our JBoss installation handles about 35 million hits per month. Due to the intelligent cache architecture in JBossCMP, our app spends less time in round-trips to the database.
Our cost savings is hard to quantify. There is the obvious savings in the cost of a J2EE container... But the other parts are what really counts: access to source code, frequent releases and bug fixes, an active developer community, etc...

Thread Topics, National Recognition and Commenting
It cannot be disputed that Charles Johnson was once noted for exposing radical Islam in stories that were not broadcast or found on what is termed the "mainstream media." Johnson found interesting and newsworthy stories that went under-reported or ignored by the MSM and opened them up for discussion. He was celebrated for exposing rampant anti-Semitism found on Arabic television, especially in children's programming. He documented efforts by the United States and others to eradicate terrorism, both politically and militarily, often sporting headlines such as "Got Two in Gaza!" or "Got Four in Lebanon!" referring to the number of enemy combatants killed.
More to the point, Little Green Footballs was interesting to read simply as an observer. His blog members at the time included well-educated, well-read individuals from all walks of life – physicians, attorneys, editors, engineers, meteorologists, teachers and other professionals, with first hand knowledge of the various topics presented for discussion. Review the comments section of any thread prior to 2009 dealing with world and domestic affairs and you will find a treasure trove of links, research, first-hand experience and commentary that rivaled anything offered by the alphabet networks and cable news.
Johnson was propelled to national attention and prominence as a central figure in the scandal known as "Rathergate," the fraud promoted by Dan Rather and CBS. Rather and CBS proffered forged Texas Air National Guard memoranda[1] less than two months prior to the 2004 Presidential Election, in an effort to discredit President George W. Bush.

Chuck projects onto Charles KrauthammerPosted: November 27, 2010 Filed under: Animal Farm Lunacy, Little Green Footballs, Totalitarian Progressives | Tags: Charles Krauthammer 52 Comments
The Jazz Man is on a roll today. His now projects his mental collapse onto Charles Krauthammer, a man who is light years ahead of him in intellect. He claims that Krauthammer has lost sanity, in reality he's describing himself.
Chuck, Krauthammer is a man of integrity. He's not a shallow hack like you are. You would get intellectually destroyed in a debate with this man since you have no intellect.

The Jazz Man accuses anyone who criticizes him of stalking. In reality, he's a stalker who keeps tabs of what people are saying about him. He also has an obsession with the Paul family, Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck.
In his latest act of stalking the Jazz Man puts up a thread attacking Charles Krauthammer, 8 minutes after Speranza does on Blogmocracy!

text: vivekdeshmukh 2 Posted January 13 Read various articles on using the right power for your speakers and that power should be preferably higher than rated speakers to get the best sound *that* speaker can produce. My question is, lets say i have a 150 watt speaker run by a lower watt say 100 watt amp - now if i play the music at low volume - Shouldn't I get a clear sound (like a higher watt amp) since the amp can still provide effortlessly the low volume power needed by speaker? Spare the slack if this is too basic :) but i am struggling to understand why this would happen at low volume - I can however understand if i increase the volume then the amp will be pushed and wont deliver a clear sound. Any technical explanations? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not one to boast, even though, at the end of each of my blogs, I never fail to mention how honored I am to own a local in-home healthcare agency that has been recognized as a Best of Home Care® – Provider of Choice award winner for 2017 and 2018. Now, I can add 2019 to my closing remarks!
That's right. Home Helpers® Clearwater has been awarded this prestigious honor again. The reason I am so proud to receive this award, is that it is bestowed upon members of the Home Care Pulse Satisfaction Management Program who have received satisfactory ratings from their clients.
The Home Care Pulse website states, "The Best of Home Care® – Provider of Choice award is based on client satisfaction ratings collected from telephone interviews performed by Home Care Pulse, an independent satisfaction research firm. These home care agencies are best-in-class for providing quality care to their clients. This recognition assures that the agency is trustworthy and has proven their ability to provide outstanding in-home care services."
To qualify for this annual award, a home care agency must meet the following requirements:
- Be a Home Care Pulse Certified – Trusted Provider for a minimum of 6 consecutive months.
- Must have 10% of current clients interviewed by Home Care Pulse each month.
- Must outperform other home care agencies in their geographic region in areas of client satisfaction.
Wow! Our beloved clients have taken their precious time to complete a telephone survey and offer positive feedback as to the outstanding level of care our professional caregivers have provided them.
One reason I believe our in-home healthcare agency has been so successful over the years is the high standard that must be met before a caregiver is hired. Your family's safety is our first priority at Home Helpers. The professional caregivers I employ are thoroughly vetted, meaning they undergo extensive screenings and background checks, along with continued training and education through Home Helpers University, so they can perform at their best, no matter what the circumstances.
Care-giving is not easy. It requires patience, understanding, compassion, and sometimes physical labor. Not everyone is cut-out to be a caregiver, but those who are blessed to possess compassionate hearts find it easy and rewarding to make an emotional investment when caring for others. Caregivers find the work exceptionally rewarding. Caregivers will be the first to tell you what deep levels of satisfaction they feel when they know they've made someone else's day brighter and healthier just by being there!
If you or a loved one is in search of in-home care, I am happy to offer a FREE Consultation to get to know you and assess your specific needs. Home Helpers® caregivers provide non-medical assistance with personal hygiene, companionship, light housework, grocery shopping, pharmacy pick-ups, meal preparation, transportation assistance, and more.
If you aspire to be a caregiver for a friend or family member – or for a special someone you've never met – we welcome the opportunity to meet you! Simply visit our Caregiver Employment page to get the vetting process started!

Product Description
History of the Coral Bark Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum 'Sango-kaku,' or Coral Bark Japanese maple, was created in Japan but also introduced in both England and Ireland in the 1920's. Soon after it was brought to the United States. Coral Bark trees are a great addition to your gardens, bringing elegance and beauty.
In spring, this tree emerges out with yellow-green leaves edged with red, turning to bright lime green as it develops. In fall, the leaves turn to a beautiful golden yellow that is stunning against the coral pink color of the branches.
Coral Bark Japanese Maple Temperament
The Coral Bark Japanese maple is an upright variety and will grow at a fast rate reaching 15-25 feet tall and 10-12 feet wide at maturity. This tree can be planted with other plantings such as azaleas, rhododendrons, etc. or can be used as a specimen that stands alone.
The Coral Bark can take full sun to partial shade and are hardy in Zones 5-9. Plant in well-drained soil and avoid overwatering. Once established watering is not crucial unless in a drought situation. This maple is low maintenance with no known disease or insect problems. Pruning is not necessary.
Be aware when purchasing Coral Bark Japanese maples as they can be grown by seed or can be grafted. The advantage of grafting over seedlings is grafted trees will give you true colors in the leaves and the rich coral color in the bark. We only sell grafted Japanese maples so our customers have the best trees they can get.
With the Coral Bark Japanese maple, there is YEAR ROUND INTEREST sure to make any garden stand out!
