While the main MITAM cover shows the boys draped seductively over a sofa in glorious technicolour, the individual ones exclusive to HMV are more of a moody black and white deal, so let\'s have a look at them, yeah?

Defiant Kong Hee declares: I am confident I will be VINDICATED
Posted by temasektimes on July 26, 2012
Despite the gravity of the criminal charges slapped on him, disgraced founder of City Harvest Church (CHC) Kong Hee remains confident that he will be 'vindicated'.
Kong Hee was charged with four other CHC members in June this month for allegedly misusing up to S$50 million dollars of the church's building fund to further the music career of his singer wife Ho Yeow Sun.
In a press statement issued on Wednesday, Kong Hee declared in a defiant tone:
"I do maintain my integrity, and will rigorously defend that integrity against these charges."
Though he had earlier called on Lord Jesus to be his 'shepherd' on his Facebook, Kong Hee now said he will place his faith and trust in Singapore's judicial system:
"I will explain the facts and circumstances to the Court, and am confident that I will be vindicated," he added.
35-year-old Serina Wee, formerly the church's chief finance director, was charged on the same day with six counts of criminal breach of trust and four for falsification of accounts.
Pre-trial conferences for all six cases will be held on 30 August.

I feel very sad on this Man of God! My dear brother in Christ, be brave for our Lord Jesus Christ sake. .Go on ans spread the good news of God from the Bible, be not revengeful. .Let God face ur wrath. .HE will revenge for u in the right time. .Remember God will send calamities to those people who malign u and think bad against u. .Giving in the Church is a Commandment from God, because all Pastor and their respective family live by faith. .May God Richly Bless You and ur family. .(i am afraid to the people who did this to u, God is not mocked. .So be strong. .GOD BLESS. .
July 26, 2012 at 12:45 pm
I think you are mistaken. Our God is not a vengeful God, but one that shows love and compassion. Asking God to take revenge means that you have not had Christ in your heart.
July 26, 2012 at 1:19 pm
I dont even know where to start with this one
July 26, 2012 at 8:34 pm
God is of mercy and of justice too, he promised that he shall avenge for those wrongfully persecuted if one entrusts him to be your avenger. He promised he will spread a feast with the persecuted faithfuls in front of the eyes of their enemies.
But now, the question is whether the pastor is indeed persecuted & prosecuted wrongfully by others? Time shall tell. For God's wisdom is higher than any one else & knows every intention behind every thought of Pastor Kong, God will definitely set things straight. That's why it's a matter of time.

Disgraced Kong Hee is currently enter the 9th dimension. Still in dream world. Enjoying high life too swift and too much till refuse to let go.
July 26, 2012 at 11:19 am
I want to enjoy all the riches donated by the stupid members, of course I will do whatever it takes to be "innocent".
July 26, 2012 at 11:20 am
Obviously Pastor Kong is in deep denial of the fate awaiting him….
Only recently we had convictions of foul play for Priest Joachim Kang,Renci Chief Monk, even NKF TTDurai for dipping their fingers into the cookie jar.What makes this young man think his case is different after 2 years' investigations by our
very competent CAD?
July 26, 2012 at 12:21 pm
You are absolutely correct. Competent CAD officials. Disgraced Kong hee feels extremely confident engaging MP Edwind Tong to represent his case. At the end of trial day, on his way InsIde PrIson van to Changi cove, secure in shackles with handcuffs, only then he shall realise he beIng played by asshole's bandit.
July 26, 2012 at 12:30 pm
Noooo….maybe it's God's secret plan to allow him to penetrate the Changi cell group & sell them CDs !!!
July 28, 2012 at 9:26 am
He will be able to recruit more members in Changi.Everyday he will be leading a congregation during break time and maybe even the prison wardens will also become CHC members.
- July 26, 2012 at 12:30 pm

Maybe his flock will comfort him by installing golden tap & toilet bowl in the Changi studio apartment?

The News described Kong Hee as disgraced,which is a very unpleasant and untruthful word because the entire Church believe he is very honorable still,despite the hostile Only press.As a whole he is still very well honored among high majority of Church members,both Christians and leaders,so that "disgraced" name will not stick,and it is very incorrectly phrase.All of us can see those Charges,and we know what it meant.We should applaud Kong Hee for having great respect and trust of our Judiciary system,and once again he has contributed good-will,and shine like a true blooded Singaporean honoring our legal systems.Hee mentioned ""two side of the stories"",it let minds roll,and people were really challenged to think before leaping into conclusion.
For a man who lead a great Church,intruding the international market places suceesfully,a Raffles Institution student,,a shepherd to so many lives,did so much humanitarian and charities,and true to the Church doctrines,Faith in God,work very well with our local Churches ,and made Singapore proud of his spouse entry into Hollywood,and also into China's Charity,the secular folks respect him,so do the true Christians here.
Obviously,his families cheer for him over his Sentosa Cove,his Church members,the government people who sold the property to him,the Developers,the Lawyers who did the work,the love that most people had for him over his sucess,the managers of Business who study his Model,and all his friends who wish him well…then it left his foes,and those may be jealous over him,they must have truly hated him…Christians were commanded to love our brethren,because those who hate brethren abide in death,and is a murderer.This is our Faith.I am not from CHC.
July 26, 2012 at 1:03 pm
Another bootlicker trying to score brownie point. U too hf the share with tat disgrace thief issit?..
July 27, 2012 at 8:03 am
Maybe he is hoping that Kong will sell his sentosa cove cheap cheap to him.If it is WRONG,it is WRONG, it is WRONG! A religious leader is as man as any people.A religious must not be mistaken as someone very close to GOD.He can commits crime like anyone else.He is a sinner like all of us.If too much $$$$ falling from the sky, very few can resist.Human being by nature is greedy!greedy greedy. Simple as that.

1) Its a fallacy to argue that just because many people think he is well honoured, that he really indeed is honourable.
I'm not sayin he is dishonourable, that can only be proved in court.
Having 2 million supporters doesnt mean you are right.
Having 60% votes doesnt mean you are right.
It is the same thing.
you are right only….when it is proved that you are right.
Only that and nothing else.
2) This is not a virtues VS vice comparsion.
No one is discounting the so called amount of "GOOD" he has done.
In fact it doesn't even MATTER.
The fact is this is a court of justice that is only interested to know if he has indeed committed a crime …. OR NOT.
Nothing else matters.
Hypothetically, even if his virtues COULD discount his vices, so are you implying that
"For a man who lead a great Church,intruding the international market places suceesfully,a Raffles Institution student,,a shepherd to so many lives,did so much humanitarian and charities,and true to the Church doctrines,Faith in God,work very well with our local Churches ,and made Singapore proud of his spouse entry into Hollywood,and also into China's Charity"
that he can get away with committing a crime?
3) This is our Faith?
Really? really?
Well… THIS IS SPARTA… (wrong)
July 26, 2012 at 9:53 pm
so u r saying PAP did not win 100% of the votes means that they are not right to be in the ruling party?
July 27, 2012 at 3:39 am
Well said. It's similar to finding out that Hitler actually helped millions of Germans, gave them hope and are well honored by them but he massacred millions of Jews. Should we still applaud him?
July 27, 2012 at 1:36 pm
Come August,CHC members are giving blood to save lives..Under the leadership whose members are Charged.They are giving blood to bless strangers,and those who may be his enemies,and to those of different Faiths!Virtues and Criminal minds are two set of matters,true,,and I notice how people tortured the word,""Ïntegrity"".Tan Ye Peng is such a very decent and humble ""boy"",so innocent and kind,yet ten Charges were slapped.
Some people can pretend to be good,but people like Sun Ho and Kong Hee and City Harvest,they just cannot pretend to be good,they are good people.Period!

"entire Church believe he is very honorable still" doesn't mean he won't do this kind of thing. No matter how holy? or saint? one person are, they are still human and human tend to be greedy.
Remember the Ren ci hospital cases? its a shocking incident similiar cases occured.
No matter what it is, if KH is really guilty, there will be evidence against him and he wont be spared from it but if he really never do it, there wont be any evidence in the 1st place that can place him arrested. There are no point defending him or further denying at this point of time. Just because you supporters refuses to be disappointed in him doesnt make him any pure and "Honorable still".
July 28, 2012 at 9:38 am
The authorities will not charged anyone without sufficient evidence.They gather all evidences,weigh them,seek legal advice and then finally haul them to court.In this instance the govt must have enough proof to nail him down.This is a serious matter and u think the authorities just pluck the evidence or hearsay and charge them? No way.Before a person is charged he would always say that he can defend himself, but after a while throw in the towel, just TT Durai does in the NKF saga.TT Durai throw in the tower just after two days and he give up

A nut job indeed.
You don't need to wait for sentencing to start withdrawing money from Madoff's hedge fund, or stop supporting Benny Hinn's extravagant lifestyle. CHC integrity is already down the drain when he preached the prosperity gospel camp, used the word of God out of context and turned the church into a self-help, self-prospering organization. It is like breaking the cardinal rule of never promising returns in the investment realm, regardless of how the fund actually performs, this infraction has doomed the whole operation from the start, and undermined the entire industry along with it.
July 26, 2012 at 10:14 pm
Even those not from CHC can be brainwashed and hoodwinked. Such is the power of that crook. Wake up Frankie!
July 27, 2012 at 1:55 pm
CHC members are brainwashed to donate blood,to her enemies,friends,criminals,strangers,obnoxious nuts,and people from other faiths!…Let all parents show protest against their kids for giving blood away!..Should we stop them come August?

July 27, 2012 at 4:15 am
LOL Frankie…seriously?
-"and made Singapore proud of his spouse entry into Hollywood,and also into China's Charity"
WHO IS PROUD?? Have you seen the videos?
I am a Singaporean living in Los Angeles and I'm TOTALLY embarrassed by her.
I'm probably prouder of Annabel Chong because she is not a hypocrite like the whole CHC top management.
-"the managers of Business who study his Model,and all his friends who wish him well"
The MLM model you mean? Of course his friends wish him well. They are benefitting from him too. Benny Hinn, Joel Osteen and all the other Prosperity preachers are so, so proud of him.
But they didn't tell him ONE thing, perhaps Sunshine empire's James Phang Wah can tell him when they meet in Changi Cove, that slowly but surely, he will be EXPOSED.
-"then it left his foes,and those may be jealous over him,they must have truly hated him"
OF COURSE we're all jealous of him. Sentosa Cove is simply awesome. Equivalent to the multi million dollar Malibu mansions by the beach. And he bought it without using his own money. Wow. Who wouldn't want that?
Frankie, LISTEN. That is not your faith. Real Christians will be offended by that statement. You have another faith. I don't know what it is, but it is severely misguided from what you think it is. You are religious hypocrite. That is in fact the worst of them all as repentance for a religious hypocrite is by itself a hypocrisy.
There is a big difference between JUDGING and giving your own reasoned out OPINIONS.
I hope all who reads this are enlightened by it and that these hypocrites will one day realize that they have been following the wrong light at the end of the tunnel.

WHO IS PROUD?? Have you seen the videos?
Which video? The one which they force a horse to wear makeup and sing and dance in front of camera? I'd call SPCA!

Wake up Farnky.
1. Do not speak on behalof all church or all christian. Far from truth. I am christian. I see things objectively. From the facts out right now,what Komg Hee and the gang did is financial fraud. If convicted they be criminals.
2. Why you need to brag about CHC social works blood donation and stuff. why? Any kind hearted men wd do the same for nothing. No promotion no self gratification. OUR lord said dont let your left hand knows what your right hand gives away. those points is irreldvant to the 50 million allegedly missing.

Common Frankie wake up.
1. Please do not speak on behalf of all church or christian. Its far from truth. I am christian but still see things objectively. what Kong Hee and gang did was fraud, as per the facts out. If convicted than he is criminal. Even if he is proven innocent by the court. I still do not agree with the way he handling the money, the sun ho saga and the attempt to cover up. Honnorable? Never in my book.
2.why you need to promote and bragg about CHC charity blood donation etc. All kind hearted men does these everyday. Nuothing to bragg about. Our Lord say dont let your left hand knows what your hand did when you do charity. Infact imagine what CHC can do with the 23 million.

Will it be a Conflict Of Interest because this is between the pastor and One The State's Department. But A Member of Parliarment representing the pastor who the State believe has committed wrong. The Member of Parliament is also representing the State and the People and at he same time intend to represent the pastor against the State, how is it not a conflict of interest in the PUBLIC'S EYES
July 26, 2012 at 3:36 pm
I am confident he will be put to jail…. and for life….. I seriously don't understand why people can think he is honourable……

July 26, 2012 at 4:36 pm
A group of kid, when they walked in dark places, they would talk loudly because they are afraid. So if KH appeared to talk defiantly, it is because he is afraid. He also knows that his gang members are also afraid. By talking 'defiantly' hopes to dispel the fear. KH and his gang members are very afraid of the verdict. Once verdict passed, that fear will be gone. They will be comforted that Jesus promises to be with them and emerge to a new life in Jesus, their Shepherd.
July 26, 2012 at 5:20 pm
Granted that the court case is pending and indeed Kong Hee is entitled to
due process. But that is for the courts to decide if he had committed the
alleged crimes. The fact remains that the COC Inquiry had "revealed
misconduct and mismanagement in the administration of the Charity,
particularly in relation to the funds that were in the Building
Fund …" (COC Press Statement 26 June 2012). Do you really think a man of
God would really administer the church in such a manner? So based on the
findings of the COC inquiry, do you think that this man is really a man of
God? Even if he is found not guilty of CBT by an agent, the findings from
the COC Inquiry alone would raise valid concerns. Are you sure this is a
man of God?
July 26, 2012 at 5:28 pm
I have a feeling he may really be vindicated, by pushing all the responsibility to the other 5 charged.
July 26, 2012 at 8:50 pm
I have the same feeling too. Sometime $$ can do many thing in the dark.
July 27, 2012 at 8:34 am
So you got my drift.
Never underestimate what KH can do.
As you know, he's the founder of this church and the rest are his followers.
When a wolf comes to devour the sheep, the shepherd can either stay, protect his herd (or maybe get killed) or runs away.
What do you think KH will do ?
July 27, 2012 at 10:38 am

I have been following this for a while, and what puzzles me is this..what did the other 5 get out of it? Sure the pastor's wife lived it up in LA or wherever,and the pastor got his rewards from her …ahem.
But, what of say..Serena Wee and the others….something is missing from the picture.
What did they gain to be in cohorts with this scheme? Were they paid off, from part of the 26 million? or were they just naive or was this really an undercover operation to infiltrate the lady pastor as a deep mole into the music scene of LA and Communist China, to preach the gospel covertly…mmm.
Was it a mission impossible ordered from above?
If the pastor is innocent, then let not the due process of men's law vindicate him, but may he be vindicated by the miraculous power of the Lord.May he be used to raise the dead between now and the completion of his trial…for if God can trust him with miraculous power,then what's a few millions.
July 29, 2012 at 11:41 am
Dred, You missed a lot of points here.
People (except may be certain churches) do not think that sun ho music got anything to do with spreading christian. To me at least it is more personal ambition to get individual success.
People would think that if you need to 'inflistrate' and become a 'mole' to sell your 'thing'. Than your 'thing' may not be good from the very first place. Thus could not be from God.
People would not think that a man of God would do to the length of fraudelence practices even if for a good cause. To make it worse there is no good cause here. It just sun ho music career. So pushing the idea of Kong Hee is annointed by God is just unacceptable to people.
By I am a concern christian parent, but I am also part of 'people'. Thus I take this case as 'people' Being a christian does not stop you to be people. Hope you can be 'people' again sometime

Carrot Head Church (CHC) members naturally, are praying hard for Con Hee to be "vindicated", since guess whose money is funding his legal defence? In the event he is NOT "vindicated", they realise it's even more obvious who the carrot heads are.
July 26, 2012 at 8:27 pm
Kong Hee – you have already been vindicated – a solitary confinement cell has been earmarked for you to serve your term of imprisonment. You can pray for tithes from your fellow prisoners. Sorry no Harley Davidson allowed.
July 26, 2012 at 9:54 pm
Well, if KH is vindicated, then this would be a great slur on the CAD !!!!.
July 26, 2012 at 10:25 pm
AMEN!!!Kong hee!In god i trust the truth will prevail….the verdict will say it all….(i have my own opinion ). But i will not play God…God , through the Court , decides….AMEN!
July 26, 2012 at 11:42 pm
If Kong Hee believed in the existing of God, he would be a very god fearing man, exudes himself from any acts that is against the truth teachings. His hypocrisies and wrong-doings in deceiving the sheeples he led manifestly show the fact he does not really believe that God really exists. He is merely making use of God and citing God for his purposes. If he is a man of God, he will be remorseful for the sins he committed and seek repentance in the bible now. No issue such a statement to stir mass support by pulling other christians from decent denominations. The bible has a saying… bewares of false prophet!
July 26, 2012 at 11:45 pm
If, at the end of the trial and all appeals to higher courts, Kong Hee was found to be guilty, beyond reasonable doubts, WHAT DO YOU, KONG HEE SUPPORTERS, HAVE TO SAY??
July 27, 2012 at 12:09 am
I sincerely hope the judge will say, "Where is your god now?" Right in KH's face if he is found guilty of CBT.
Sidenote: Anyone realise when the PP decides to prosecute a public figure, the person seldom gets off the hook?
July 27, 2012 at 12:50 am
He is a Christian Hero, a true christian
July 27, 2012 at 12:33 pm
Kong Hee is not a man of God. He is merely making use of God's name for his purposes. If he is man of God, he will be God fearing and abstrain himself from any wrong doing against the will of God.
Either he is not a man of God or deep down in his heart he believes God is non-existence. If he is a man of God, he will be remorseful and seek repentance, There is a saying in the bible – BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHET!
July 27, 2012 at 2:19 pm
we should Not condemn ,even the Bible says "There is No Condemenation in Christ" .because Anyone who falter would find God's grace in repentance.This is what our Christian faith is about.God is faithful, just and forgiving and does not condemn us. Lets' be more kind and put yourselves in others' places always and try to imagine how you would be if in that situation.we might be indignant , angry but Not judgemental .everyone sins, if not in big things, then in small .
July 27, 2012 at 4:28 pm
i hope he is not going to play Paul.
July 27, 2012 at 6:53 pm
there we go…some person was fined 8000 dollars for misappropriating 5000 dollars…read about it in Straits times….so, the fine will be 25 million plus sixty percent..there is no mention of jail time in that story for the woman involved.Praise the Lord..no jail time possibly for the pastor and his team..just raise up 25 million plus 60 percent , CHC.A precedent has been set. Amen..and stop taking tax concessions from your ceasar. lesson learnt?
July 27, 2012 at 8:25 pm
I take it Tang is a firm supporter of Cock Head Church.
First of all , it is relatively easy to say if someone is right or wrong in certain choices. Judgements are made possible by values. If you hold something as a value it compels you to judge others by those values. The only way someone could live without judging anyone in anyway would be either tobhsve no values or to withhold their moral judgement in all situations. In all aspect in life, it is convinced that only the most amoral person could withhold judgement in three face of what they consider to be evil. This goes for anyone regardless if their values or beliefs. The presence of values necessitates judgement.
July 27, 2012 at 11:28 pm
Hahaha….Cock Head Church
No wonder Kong talking cock, as in "Kong similan" 🙂
Anyway let everybody have their opinion, this ain't a GE, even if 100% sheeple support him oso no use if the Judge passes guilty verdict, hohoho

Joe Paterno, the winningest veteran coach in college history, has his statue removed, and wins invalidated posthumously because of possible association to his co-worker who sexually abused underaged children.
Barclays Robert Diamond stepped down amidst scandals that some of his employees were manipulating the libor rate.
NKF chief Durai received S$600,000 salary, public pressured the board to resign, and resulted in an investigation to the books which leads to indictment.
Rev KH scandal broke, and members came to his defense en masse, cried, and prayed for heaven to vindicate him.
Moral of the story, to join CHC, the primary requirement is to be silly brainwashed.
July 28, 2012 at 12:59 am
Right now, the best things for him to say is – to zip up his mouth and not say anything at all. Cos the more he says, the more he shows his fear. Even if he's vindicated, what about his other 5 accomplices. As long as any one of them is found guilty, he ultimately has to take responsibility for it.

Con Hee really dare to abuse God in such gracious manner and style! Err…this could mean either deep down in his heart he knows God is just fititious or if God exists then God has actually supported and endorsed his wrong-doings…

In 2008, a former state senator, known as Mr. Initiative for the initiatives that he successfully put on the ballot, ran for the state Senate. He was not only bounced off the ballot for petition fraud, he was convicted. Over 60 percent of his signatures were found to be forged.
When was he most likely to have committed signature fraud? When he needed 1,400 signatures for a Senate seat? Or, when he needed 170,000 signatures for an initiative? Where did he learn the bad habits that led him to believe he could get away with that ratio of fraud?
The answer seems to be obvious.
In 2016, I examined one of the destructive initiatives. With the signature deadline looming, I visited over 40 different places where signatures might be gathered: libraries, motor vehicle offices, two different festivals, Bashas' stores and a farmer's market. Only three spots had signature gatherers. Past mid-day each of these had less than 100 signatures. Not one branch library had a circulator, the place where I had gathered the overwhelming majority of my signatures as a candidate.
How in the world could they be picking up the required signatures with so few circulators in the field, I wondered?
At opening time of Phoenix main library, 86 people stood waiting for the doors to open. There was a petition circulator at the library. Of the 86 people waiting, he captured only four of their signatures. A quick mathematical calculation of four out of 86 gathering rate reveals an astronomical number of people that had to be asked for the initiative to make the ballot.
A return to the library at 4 p.m. that day revealed a grand total of 27 signatures by three different circulators.
I even fanned out to Post Offices where you aren't supposed to gather signatures, but are good places to get them till you get chased away. Nope, not a single gatherer.
Then, I hit a sample of Bashas' stores, which are one of the few stores that will allow signature gathering. Not a single petition gatherer.
I then visited the headquarters of the petition gathering company for that particular initiative. They had a big sign saying that they only accepted signatures during a limited time during the day. So, I returned the next day – 10 minutes before their cash window opened. I expected to see a beehive of activity as petition gatherers came in from the field to deposit their signatures and get money.
Not a single gatherer came during the times laid out on the sign. Not one.
The stories in the Arizona Capitol Times about signature fraud are like the stories of really dumb crooks. The real problem is the smart ones.
What would a smart petition fraud likely look like?
They have massive banks of digitized legitimate signatures, collected over many election cycles. This means that they are completely aware of which signatures are forged because they would regard real signatures as precious assets for their signature bank. If they are smart, and they likely are, they have keypunched these signatures and cross referenced them against post office files to eliminate voters who have moved out of state. But, perhaps not, in which case upwards of 7 percent of their signatures will consist of out-of-state signatures. Clear frauds.
What would the logistics of this fraud operation look like? Once entities have databases of real signatures accumulated over several election cycles, forging signatures from real signatures is not a complex or highly detectable maneuver. Just a visit out to the internet quickly shows this.
In other words, if you have copies of legitimate signatures, very good forgery is easy.
The investigation to reveal all this looks very different than what is being described in terms of scrutiny of these signatures. It should start with a simple phone call to a sample of the voters to see if they signed the petition and, where were they when they signed, cross referenced against others on the same sheet. They should sample the bottom five signatures on each page separately from the first five signatures, particularly on full pages or perhaps only on full pages.
They should compare the number of signatures that collectors claim to have been paid for with the number of signatures collected under their name.
The attorney general should get to the bottom of this mess.

Healthy and productive farms are a part of our living landscapes across much of NSW. Native vegetation and trees are well recognised as being vital to maintaining farm productivity.
The NSW Government states that native vegetation:
• controls erosion through protecting soils and riverbanks;
• reduces land degradation and salinity;
• improves water quality and availability; and
• provides habitat for a wealth of unique biodiversity including threatened species.
The latest figures show that only 9% of NSW has vegetation considered to be in close to natural condition. By maintaining existing native vegetation and restoring degraded land farmers, food producers and land managers have much to gain.
The benefits of native vegetation are also felt throughout the food chain. NSW's reputation as a producer of clean, sustainable food is an indispensable asset to the sector. This reputation relies upon safeguards against unsustainable land management such as a loss of native vegetation.
We all have a role to play in maintaining the health and productivity of the landscape for the future.
Proposed changes to native vegetation management
The NSW Government is proposing to change the way native vegetation is managed. If implemented the changes will likely see an increase in the amount of land cleared.
The changes will see the introduction of a Biodiversity Conservation Act and amendments to the Local Land Services Act.
The changes proposed include:
- Repealing the Native Vegetation Act, and other environmental laws including the Threatened Species Conservation Act and sections of the National Parks and Wildlife Act;
- Broadening the Codes to allow for vegetation to be more easily cleared with fewer safeguards;
- Placing the responsibility of environmental assessment with landholders, exposing them to federal government enforcement;
- Removing the need to assess impacts on soil quality and salinity prior to clearing;
- Failing to plan for the impacts of increasing drought under climate change scenarios; and
- Continuing to allow mining and resource companies to play by different rules.
Visit the government's website for more information on the changes.

2018 was a challenging year. With the coming of 2019 comes a chance for a new start, and I am eager for what the new year will bring with the intentions I set for it.
Calm. I'm hoping to make my everyday life more peaceful by staying more organized, savoring more quiet moments, and taking more time to participate in things I enjoy. All of these are things I began doing in 2018, but will make a more intentional part of my life this year.
Words. While I did a lot of freelance writing in 2018, I want to get back to thinking more creatively. I plan to write more in 2019 – through journaling, blogging, and creative writing.
Books. Along with writing more, I want to read and learn more. I have said for many years that I'd read more once I was done with my PhD, and that has happened now. I won't set a numerical goal, but I'll be interested at the end of the year to know how much I've read.
Mindfulness. I'll deepen my yoga practice this year by attending workshops, visiting new studios to practice with different teachers, and reading and reflecting more. By the end of this year or early 2020, I plan on being registered for a 200-hour teacher training.
Stability. I plan for 2019 to be the year that I get my footing financially, now that I have a stable full-time job. I'm eager to have the ability to be more deliberate about purchasing, budgeting, and saving for things that will bring me joy and matter in the long-term.
Travel. I don't plan or want to travel much in 2019, but seeing as I haven't visited a new state since 2015, I hope to make it up to Maine this year and cut my "remaining states" list down to 5 while taking advantage of my National Parks pass, which expires this summer.
Independence. I hope to make decisions that further my personal goals, which may mean deciding to do, or not do, something, with less consideration than I've had previously for making the right decision for someone else.
My word for 2019 is intention. It's a word that resonates from my yoga practice. Why am I doing what I am doing, and what does this moment mean? Every moment is a chance to do something that matters. I want the idea that everything I do is purposeful to drive my actions this year.

Experience means we've seen or handled virtually every type of criminal defense situation. It means you can trust us.
When you hire our firm, you always work directly with an attorney whose responsible for managing your case.
To be charged with assault in the state of California, an individual does not have to engage in an actual attack. Furthermore, the victim of the crime doesn't have to sustain serious injuries to press charges. If a person is facing an assault charge in Los Angeles, it may be a good idea to consult with an attorney. He or she may help a person better understand his or her rights and how to preserve them.
What Are the Elements of Assault?
There are four main elements that need to be established to win a conviction in an assault case. The first element is showing that the act involves applying force to another person. It is also necessary to show that the act was intentional and that the person committing the act knew what he or she was doing. Finally, it must be established that the individual actually had the ability to carry out the act in question.
Who Has the Ability to Carry Out an Act?
The ability to carry out an act typically depends on a person's physical abilities at the time an incident occurs. For instance, someone who is in a wheelchair or who is missing a limb is less likely to carry out the act of punching or kicking somebody. However, those who are under the influence of alcohol or drugs could still be charged with assault as they could be capable of touching, punching or otherwise making forceful contact.
Any Type of Touching Can Result in an Assault Charge
If a person touches someone else in a rude or angry fashion, that could be considered assault regardless of the severity of the act. It is also considered assault if a person is touched through his or her clothing. However, there are many different ways in which someone who is charged with assault could defend him or herself from the charges.
How Defenses Are Available in An Assault Case?
Under California law, an individual is allowed to fight back against any attack or attempted attack on his or her life or property. An individual may also be allowed to prevent attacks against family members or their animals in limited situations.
Therefore, an attorney may use a self-defense argument in court to cast doubt on the assault charge. In some cases, a supposed victim may make a false allegation against an individual. For example, a former spouse or angry neighbor may say that they were touched or threatened even if there is no evidence to suggest it happened.
What Types of Penalties Could a Person Face?
A person who is convicted of an assault charge could face a variety of penalties. For instance, it is possible to be sentenced to up to six months in jail. Other penalties include community service or probation, and these penalties could be levied instead of jail time or in addition to it. Finally, those who are convicted of an assault charge may be ordered to take anger management or similar courses.
Could a Plea Bargain Be Available in an Assault Case?
It is possible that a prosecutor could choose to come to a plea deal in a case as opposed to taking it to trial. While this would technically be a guilty plea on behalf of the defendant, the consequences of the plea could be less severe than if a person was found guilty by a judge or jury. For instance, a plea deal could suspend any sentence imposed as long as the defendant doesn't get in trouble for a predetermined amount of time.
If you have been charged with assault, it is important to seek counsel as soon as possible. It is likely that whoever has accused you of this crime will have counsel available to them, and the state will also have a strong understanding of the law as it pursues a case against you. Therefore, speaking with an attorney can help you level the playing field as the case unfolds.

A brush fire on a Los Angeles hillside prompted a major emergency response Sunday.
More than 150 firefighters battled the 30-acre blaze on a steep chaparral-covered section of Mandeville Canyon above Brentwood and sent up a plume of smoke that was visible for miles.
Firefighters aided by water-dropping aircraft were able to contain 70 percent of the fire by late afternoon.
Investigators said a private company working on a road in the canyon had been using a weed whacker to clear brush around homes when its muffler overheated and sparked the fire.
LAFD Deputy Chief Trevor Richmond was asked to describe the severity of the fire on a scale of 1 to 10. He told the Los Angeles Times that it was about a 3, though the inferno was burning in "all directions."
The five mile dead-end road through the canyon is home to some of Los Angeles' wealthiest residents and leads to side roads where the likes of former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady have owned mansions.
In the desert east of Los Angeles, a 40-acre brush fire in the town of Mecca forced about 50 people to evacuate from an apartment complex.
Riverside County Fire officials said those residents were allowed to return after firefighters contained 50 percent of the blaze.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

UPDATE: This recipe post has been revamped and you can find it by clicking here.
Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus – baked with Noble cheese
Serve it as an appetiser, side dish, a light lunch or finger food. A full platter would look beautiful to take to friends. And for a luxurious breakfast, dip in soft boiled eggs instead of toast soldiers.
This simple recipe avoids any tricky problems by baking it under a cheese and ground almond mix. Any cheese will be suitable as long as it has a strong yet gentle flavour.Prosciutto wrapped asparagus is a simple dish is made with only 5 ingredients.
For those of you who find parmesan too strong, try aged hard cheeses.
I grated the cheese using a zester to get a fine grade of cheese. If you use a standard cheese grater, the results won't look as delicate but could still be used.
Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus
- 12 asparagus spears
- 6 slices thin prosciutto
- 1 tbsp almond meal/flour
- 30 g strong cheese grated/shredded finely
- 2 tbsp double/heavy cream
- Mix the strong cheese and almond meal/flour in a small cup.
- Cut the bottom inch from the asparagus spears then place into a large saucepan.
- Add enough boiling water to just cover the asparagus, bring to the boil for 2 minutes. You want the asparagus to remain slightly crunchy, but not raw, in the middle.
- Remove from the heat and drain.
- Place a prosciutto slice on a chopping board and place 2 asparagus spears diagonally on top.
- Sprinkle a little of the cheese mix across the asparagus and drizzle with a little cream then roll up. Place in the baking dish.
- Repeat with all the other prosciutto slices and asparagus spears.
- Once they are all lined in the baking dish, sprinkle the remaining cheese mix.
- Bake at 180C/350F for 15 minutes, or until golden and the cheese has melted.

Some high street suppliers have stopped working with Debenhams over fears of missed payments and following cuts to its credit insurance, Drapers has learned.
It is understood that two London-based suppliers have walked away from Debenhams and another has reduced its exposure after credit insurance for the retailer was reduced by several leading providers, including Atradius, Euler Hermes and Coface.
Earlier this month, credit ratings agency Moody's downgraded its long-term outlook for Debenhams from B2 to Caa1, and changed the "probability of default" rating – which measures the relative likelihood that a company will default on one or more of its debt obligations – from B2-PD to Caa1-PD.
"They owed us so much money at any one time, we decided it was too risky," one supplier told Drapers. "It's not worth it. I know other suppliers are nervous about going forward with Debenhams, [and] we were in the same boat. It could be a disaster for them."
Another supply source said: "It happened when the insurance got pulled. Everyone is having a bit of realignment because of uncertainty about Debenhams. In the past people would take some risks – it's a risky industry – but it's what level of risk you want to take across the board."
One supplier told Drapers he was being more cautious after suffering a hit from House of Fraser's administration: "We lost credit cover several months ago and had to stop trading with [Debenhams] in stores, although we're still online.
"We're very worried because we were hit by HoF – we lost thousands of pounds there. Debenhams has a good name and, as a supplier, we want to do what we can to help them, but we also have a responsibility towards our staff."
Another Debenhams supplier agreed: "The credit downgrade is affecting brands like us, as we will not get enough insurance coverage. Debenhams might be OK for the short term, but it is hard to plan growth knowing you are not covered by the insurance, and our bank financing will not back such risky business in the current retail environment.
"It is really worrying following HoF's administration, as many of us have not overcome those losses yet."
Drapers understands only half of Debenhams' suppliers across all departments – including fashion, beauty, gifts, furniture and electricals – use credit insurance.
It is also understood that Debenhams is accelerating its planned consolidation of its supply base.
A spokeswoman for the retailer said: "Many suppliers don't use credit insurance. Those that have used it historically are well aware of the current situation and work with retailers to manage things accordingly. Debenhams is well stocked for Christmas."
The struggling department store group announced a £491.5m statutory pre-tax loss for the year to 1 September 2018 – down from a £59m profit the previous year. EBITDA fell by 27.5% to £157.3m and its underlying profit before tax more than halved, dropping 65.1% to £33.2m.
Like-for-like sales were down by 2.3%, and Debenhams described beauty and fashion as "weak" areas.
Gross transaction value for the year also fell, by 1.8% to £2.9bn.
Readers' comments (5)
Some brands will take the risk that they have always done and sent out goods that aren't covered, but even the most naive of suppliers have no excuses now.
When not if........
Another Day/Ashley debacle looms.
2019 is a going to be a very significant year for Debenhams. Will they keep pulling the wool over everyone's eyes or simply admit they are too far in the manure.
Current valuation of £77M doesn't bode well. Predict CVA to be announced in January.
I agree with the above. They will say that they had a poor Xmas (again) and announce a CVA.

Eyebrow Microblading Treatments Vancouver
Microblading is an extensive procedure performed by a highly certified and trained professional. It uses tiny needles in the form of a blade or a pen-like tool to deposit pigment in the skin. Think of it as a tattoo for your eyebrows. The only difference is that microblading is semi-permanent. It will fade away after a certain amount of time, which means regular appointments are necessary if you want to maintain your thick, full eyebrows. With microblading, you don't have to worry about filling in your eyebrows every morning because microblading does the job for you. The look is precise and natural. The results appear phenomenal and it's no wonder many women are raving all about it!*
Treatment Pricing
A 15 minute consultation at least 3 days in advance of the microblading procedure is required. A test patch will be done to test for any reaction that may occur. If eyebrow shaping is needed, regular price for eyebrow shape waxing will be charged.
Microblading Treatment (approx 2.5 hours)
Includes eyebrow consultation, numbing treatment, Microblading session, take-home aftercare instruction, and one free touch up appointment in 6 weeks. An extensive consent form will be discussed with the technician.
Touch ups (approx. 2 hours)
Within 1 year of the first treatment
1-2 years of the first treatment
After 2+ years of the first treatment
If a touch up is needed and the first treatment was not done at Le Petit Spa, full price will be charged.
Booking Policy and Deposit Fee
A one-time non-refundable deposit fee of $150 is required for your initial treatment booking in order to secure your time slot. This amount must be paid in person at the time of the consultation appointment. This amount will go towards your treatment and the remaining balance will be paid when you come in for your appointment.
Rescheduling and Cancellation Policy
For reschedules and cancellations, please contact Le Petit Spa at 604-224-4314 at least 2 days in advance of your appointment date otherwise your deposit will be forfeited.
We are here to assist you to put your best face forward. Please talk with us about any inquires regarding microblading and our receptionists will be happy to answer your questions. To book an appointment or for more information, please contact us at 604-224-4314 or online here.
Your Commitment is Much Appreciated
Eyebrow Microblading is effective in most cases, however, like any procedure, there is no guarantee that a specific client will benefit from the procedure. It is the process of inserting pigment into the dermal layer of the skin and is a form of tattooing. All instruments that enter the skin or come in contact with body fluids are disposable and disposed of immediately after use. Cross-contamination guidelines are strictly followed. The results are generally excellent. However, a perfect result is not a realistic expectation. It is usual to expect a touch-up after the healing is completed.
* Results may vary from person to person
Call us today with any questions or book an appointment!

Dealing with intense and constant pain is not easy; the longer it continues for the harder it becomes to function normally. In fact, you will start to feel exhausted as your body struggles to cope with the stress of dealing with this issue alongside the everyday functions. The most obvious solution is a visit to your doctor where you will be prescribed with pain relief.
Unfortunately, many conditions such as bone issues, or even some cancers will result in this constant pain. When you start to take the prescription drug you can have no idea that it is about to change your life drastically. Of course, gaining an addiction to painkillers is not something which happens overnight but it is also something that you may not be aware of until it is too late. Oxycontin is a particularly powerful drug which is often used by heroin addicts when they cannot locate any heroin. It is known on the street as Oxy or Hillbilly heroin and can cause an array of long term health issues. The biggest of these is the damage it can do to your personal relationships with family and friends; it is often the cause of divorce and even domestic abuse as your focus switches to where you can get your next hit from.
Fortunately, there are clinics which can provide you with the care and support you need to recover from this addiction and rebuild your life. There are several key stages of the treatment these rehab clinics offer:
Before you can be accepted onto a program you must accept that you have an issue. This can be one of the most difficult steps; even with your relationships breaking down you may struggle to see you have a problem. However, it is essential to acknowledge the issue and want to have assistance dealing with it. Without this you will never be ready to move on.
Most clinics will insist you stay within their rehab facilities. This will ensure you are unable to feed your oxycontin addiction. You will then either receive a slowly reducing amount of the drug to help remove your dependence. Or, your oxycontin addiction will be considered severe enough to justify using a different drug which will replace the oxycontin and also slowly be reduced.
The rehab clinic will closely monitor your oxycontin addiction withdrawal to ensure you do not display excessive amounts of the withdrawal symptoms. Your dose and treatment will be quickly altered if you do. Standard withdrawal symptoms include flu like indications, increased anxiety, depression, nausea and even vomiting. You are also likely to develop a fever and experience bone and muscle pain as the painkiller is removed from your system.
Many of these symptoms reflect the signs that you have the addiction which is why they must be carefully monitored.
Once you have successfully completed a course, the clinic will offer a comprehensive follow-up program to assist you. This is designed to help you deal with life and any pain issues without resorting back to your oxycontin addiction.

FLETCHER OPERA THEATER, RALEIGHWhen Old Crow Medicine Show co-founder Willie Watson embarked on his solo career, he struggled to find the material he wanted to sing. It wasn't so much that he couldn't write songs as much as it was that the material he did pen didn't compare to his old-timey favorites.
So he stole a page from country music, surrendering the prestige of authorship so that he might sing the best tunes he could find. The 10 songs of his May debut, Folk Singer, Vol. 1, are as unfussy and direct as the title. He picks traditional blues and country songs, from the classic "Midnight Special" to Utah Phillips' "Rock Salt and Nails."
"It's just doing what I really like to do, singing these songs that I really like to sing," says Watson. "They're just better songs than I can write myself."
These austere tunes feature just Watson, his guitar and an ache that obeys no clock. Watson's high lonesome tenor wavers like an old AM radio signalbroadcasting from another age, cutting in and out.
"They're from a time when songwriting had more mystery even talking about the simplest things," he says. "There's mystique around it and depth that I don't hear today."
Plenty of music fans must share his feelings: Folk Singer cracked Billboard's independent album charts. Crowds have been strong. Reviews are positive. It's a surprising shift for Watson, who had reconciled himself to a lower profile if it meant playing the simple music he wanted to make.
"I really didn't expect people to react as they have," he says. "It took a while to figure it out, but I couldn't be happier with where I'm at. You can tell that people think it is unique in a way, and I'll take that any day." With Liz Longley. 8 p.m., $22$29, 2 E. South St., Raleigh, 919-664-8302, pinecone.org.

Turkeys have their place at Thanksgiving—on my plate. They are nice for children to be able to draw simply by outlining their fingers. The word "turkey" is quicker to say than "the Thanksgiving Day game." I like turkeys. I'm glad people in power pardon one or two every year.
However, for me, they aren't Thanksgiving. That's reserved for some of your ancestors—the Pilgrims. I have a figurine collection of those bravest of the brave—fathers, mothers, children, pregnant women and people passed their prime.
The North Atlantic seas weren't kind to them. I gaze at my people, picturing the constant, twenty-four-seven throwing up and colds and influenza passed around the small ship. After landing they had to live on the boat. Today the Pac N.W. is cold! Imagine those dear souls, wading back and forth to shore through frigid November water. I love my Pilgrims and would like you to meet my Thanksgiving friends.
My little "Yogi", above, (though I cannot remember from whence he came,) watch-bears my congregation. Maybe his ancestor did the same in the 1600's!
Both sets of parishioners were given to me by my friend Audrey. The left-hand ones probably are ceramic but have a porcelain feel and sound. Their friends on the right are ceramic but are finished to look and feel like wood carvings.
Hey, several years back I found these families at my local drugstore! Colorful and jolly.
Long ago, the cute little pair on the left started my collecting and are well-traveled. Wherever we have been at Thanksgiving, they center the table bringing a bit of home. The candles were my mom's.
Found these two beauties in a Whidbey Island antique shop. They sing Thanksgiving to me – God's purpose for friendship between His children.
Years ago we waited out the aftermath of the Southeast's Hurricane Isabel. The first shop to re-open featured decorations of N.C/VA history. The founders at Jamestown went through the same storms.
I've probably finished collecting. Pilgrims aren't plentiful in retail stores. Oh, I did run across the ones below—sold on Amazon for Around $19.00. Solar-powered dancing Pilgrims. Maybe I should join these millenials to their fore"bears". Think?
Have a peaceful Thanksgiving.
Perhaps you will say this old Moravian prayer:
Come, Lord Jesus, our guest to be
And bless these gifts
Bestowed by Thee.
And bless our loved ones everywhere,
And keep them in Your loving care.
Am praying that for you!
(Congratulations to Tillie Porter–winner of last week's drawing!)

Hello everyone. I thought by now, I'd be ready to do a full review on the Clarisonic Mia 2 my boyfriend got me for Christmas. (Silent moment of appreciation for boyfriends who actually listen to our beauty wishlists). Although, I've been using it about a month, I went through a purging phase that lasted longer than expected, so I'm not ready to talk about results yet. But let me state my experiences with the Clarisonic Mia so far.
Week 1: I started off, as the directions suggested, by only using the Clarisonic every other day. In my case, I picked Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for consistency and took the weekends off. Turns out miracles don't happen. No change this first week
Week 2: Still only using the Clarisonic every other day, week 2 was when I experienced the nasty purging phase. Although it wasn't as bad as I expected, I had a few more breakouts than usual. Luckily no cystic acne
Week 3: Week 3 was when I started using the Clarisonic on an every day basis. My new pimples were disappearing fast, but of course, there was a trade off. I've never really had a problem with blackheads, but suddenly they were sprouting up in my T-Zone, including a very prominent one on my nose. My pores were also looking unusually large. At this point, I was ready to go back to my old routine, except that I've learned over the years that things that are supposed to treat acne rarely take less than a month to work. So I decided I would stick it out at least another 9 days.
Week 4 & Beyond: So here we are a little past the 4 week mark. My blackheads have disappeared, my pores have shrunk back to normal and I currently don't have any breakouts. My skin still doesn't look great in my opinion, because I still have acne scars, but I don't think the Clarisonic is going to take care of that too! All in all, while I'm pleased with the results right now, I've had acne long enough to know that sometimes you just have a good week. Plus my acne was pretty well under control before using the Clarisonic, only experiencing minor breakouts. I'll let you know in a month or so if these results have lasted.
Final Thoughts
What I Like: For the moment, knock on wood, the Clarisonic has appeared to clear my skin up.
What I Dislike: This thing takes forever to charge! Beyond that, it's very expensive.
What I Feel Meh About, but Should Probably Mention: So obviously, not everyone is going to be preoccupied with acne using this product. Some people use it for a deeper clean and because this supposedly helps serums and moisturizers sink in better. It probably does do a decent job of deep cleaning judging by how it seemed to blast all my acne to the surface. However, if that's your reason for using it, I'd consider how much cleaner you really need your face to be. Also, if you have hard water, it might not be as effective. I didn't notice much of a difference in how well any of my lotions and potions sunk in, but then again, I had never had a problem with that anyway. Ditto for the smoothness and softness of my skin
So what do you think? Have you used the Clarisonic Mia 2? Are you interested in using it? Let me know in the comments below!

The research article 'Research on the non-uniform inflow characteristics of the canned nuclear coolant pump' has been published in Elsevier's Annals of Nuclear Energy.
Computational fluid dynamics is used to analyze the velocity field of the inflow and the pressure loading on the blades of the reactor coolant pumps under different conditions. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the k-ε turbulence model were solved to simulate both steady and unsteady states of the inflows. The model was validated with experiments on the heads and efficiencies by testing a straight pipe at different flow rates. With this model, the paper demonstrates that, by replacing the straight pipe with a channel head, the inlet flow field of the impeller becomes non-uniform, forming a swirling flow under lateral pressure differences and a local low-energy region near the tube wall. The inlet distortion destroys the circular symmetry of the flow field and reduces the head and efficiency of the pump. The flow field in the impeller is more complicated and chaotic and imposes an unbalanced force on the impeller thus increasing the risk of fatigue failure of the impeller.
Because of the significant effect of the non-uniform inflow induced by the channel head on the performance of the pump, understanding the underlying mechanism is of importance in improving the design of the reactor coolant pump.

An innovative approach for modelling pumping tests in wells intersecting fractures is presented.
A cooling water circuit consisting of 3 cooling towers in parallel, 2 cooling water pumps in parallel and 11 heat exchangers in parallel is modelled.
A method using deep belief networks is proposed to detect multiple faults in axial piston pumps.
A Large Eddy Simulation (LES) study was carried out on a centrifugal pump with a vaned diffuser.
Dry running leads to a surge in pressure, flow or overheating that will instigate a pump failure. As a result, the pumping elements seize up on the shaft.
