With more mobile devices than humans and over one billion people participating in social networks, today's customers are more networked and better informed than ever.
As smartphones and tablets become more ingrained into day-to-day lives, a growing amount of consumers expect to interact with brands across multiple screens simultaneously. A whopping 90% of consumers are moving between multiple screens in the same day, creating tremendous opportunity for companies to set themselves apart from the competition with multi-device marketing. Many marketers are already experimenting, but the challenge is to create a cost-effective, unified campaign that works for each individual platform.
Creating that cost-effective, unified campaign doesn't just mean giving customers a consistent message across any platform. It means engaging customers across multiple channels with unique experiences, relevant offers, and personalized incentives—and doing so across the complete customer engagement lifecycle, from initial discovery through post-sale engagement and support.
Here are five ways marketers can engage prospects through the buyer's journey.
1. Be part of the conversation
If a consumer is researching your product or service on Twitter, Facebook, or blogs from his or her mobile device, you need to listen and, if appropriate, engage in the conversation with valuable insight that responds to questions and guides the consumer's buying decision. If a prospect wants to order your product or request your service online, you need to be prepared to capture that order with a simplified and seamless process. If a consumer wants to pick up part of that order at a local retail outlet and have the rest drop-shipped to his or her home or office, you need to support that, too.
2. Use analytics for insight across platforms
Huge data volumes across platforms can make getting the customer intelligence companies need to deliver one-to-one marketing difficult. By adopting analytics solutions, you can turn Big Data into real-time insights and get a complete view of a customer's needs, preferences, and behavior on any device.
3. Personalize every interaction

Superman was impervious, and Wonder Woman had those awesome bracelets, but the average person (or superhero) needs to find a realistic way to avoid those small but potentially deadly projectiles.
The first – and best – course of action is obviously to just avoid getting shot at in the first place. Barring that option, however, the next best thing to do is to duck, dodge, or otherwise evade the bullets that life will inevitably throw at you.
Now, I am obviously talking figuratively here, not literally, yet ironically enough, living a life where you can dodge mental bullets will probably keep you from having to dodge literal bullets as well, so it's an all-around good technique to learn!
The trick to dodging mental bullets is not to actually get out of the way whenever someone fires them at you, but rather to neutralize those mental bullets, thus eliminating their ability to cause you any harm.
Although in a perfect scenario, we could all simply avoid the negativity that is brought into our lives by other people, realistically that is not always going to be possible. However, by knowing how to make yourself impervious to those negative mental bullets (without being from Krypton or having magic bracelets), no matter how negative any given situation is, you will still be able to minimize or eliminate the affect that situation has on you and your life.
The trick to this lies in a very simple concept that everyone is familiar with: Opposites.
What do opposites have to do with eliminating negativity from your life? Quite simply, because opposites cancel each other out.
It is not possible for any extreme state of being to remain in an extreme state whenever the opposite of that state is applied to it.
Confused? Try out these examples:
- What happens when you mix black and white? You get gray.
- What happens when left and right meet in the middle? A straight line.
- What is the mid-line between moving forward or moving backwards? Standing still.
- What happens if you try to go up and down at the same time? Nothing.
- What is the difference between partly cloudy and partly sunny? Sorry, that's not part of the lesson – I just had to throw it in there! 🙂
The point here is that if some person or some situation comes at you from an extremely negative standpoint, then all you have to do in order to dodge that bullet is to focus on the polar opposite of whatever the negativity is, and you will immediately neutralize the extreme nature of that negativity.
If someone walks up to you and starts screaming and yelling, just remain calm, and put yourself in a happy place. In fact, if you can conjure up an actual smile, that will REALLY help. It may not help the person screaming and yelling, but it will certainly help you, and what you need is what this is really all about anyway.
Your calm, cheerful demeanor will at the very least keep you from losing your cool and saying or doing something that you'll regret, and at the same time it may have the added benefit of diffusing the situation. Even the instigator of the whole thing may chill out, and both of you can then move forward without all of that negative energy.
If an extremely negative situation comes up in your life, the first thing to realize is that the situation just is what it is. You may be able to make the situation better in the future, but at the moment when you find out about (and are most susceptible to the negative effects of) the situation, simply accepting the situation for what it is needs to be the first step.
Once you have accepted the situation, then you can pull out the "opposite card". Since the goal is to avoid the negative influence that this situation could have on your state of mind, don't focus on finding a solution at this point, but rather just finding and focusing on the opposite of the situation.
Whenever you focus on the polar opposite of any given negative situation, what is the polar opposite of negative? Positive! No matter what negative situation has been presented to you, you can immediately eliminate the negativity by thinking about and FEELING about the opposite of that situation.
Remember, the goal here is not to find solutions to the situation, but rather to just protect yourself from the negativity that the situation has created.
Have you ever heard the phrase "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer"? The reason why that phrase is true is because rich people focus on prosperity, while poor people focus on poverty. It is nothing more complicated or covert than the frequently proven fact that people get what they focus on. This applies to your health just as much as – if not more than – any other areas of your life.
If you wake up in the morning and think "I am so sore," or "I am so tired," or "I don't feel well," then you will continue to recreate those same feelings all day long. No matter what you do physically in order to try to alleviate those conditions, if you stay mentally focused on the fact that for some real or imagined reason you are supposed to be sore, tired, or ill, you will find a way to keep feeling exactly like that.
Focus instead on the opposite of those feelings. Yes, it will be hard at first because you DO feel sore, tired, or ill. However, by continually focusing on the opposite of those feelings, you will empower your own body to minimize or even eliminate whatever it is that caused those feelings to begin with. Or, if you can't wrap your head around the fact that your mind controls your body (and it does!), then you should still be able to get your head around the simple fact that if you stop thinking about something unpleasant, you'll stop noticing it as well.
Your life is not just made up of the actual events that transpire during your time here on Earth, but rather how you feel about what happens to you here on Earth. Depending on your personal belief systems, you recognize that you have anywhere from partial to complete control over the physical happenings in your life, and most people exercise their level of control regularly.
However, the one thing that is absolutely beyond debate is that you have 100% complete, utter control over what you think and what you feel as a result of those thoughts. If your life is the sum of the thoughts and feelings that you have about your physical experiences (and it is), and you can control your thoughts and your feelings 100% of the time (and you can), then doesn't it just make sense to have the best possible thoughts and feelings as often as you can?
You've got absolutely nothing to lose by attempting to use this system of dodging mental bullets, and since I don't see Wonder Woman or Superman swooping in to save your day, you might want to think about handling that responsibility on your own…

I was asked to speak about the relations between the individual and the state institutions. I will address this in correlation with this colloquium's topic: "Democratic Institutions and Civil Society in South-Eastern Europe" .
When I compared the title of my speech with the colloquium's, I asked myself one thing: Are the terms "democratic institutions" and "state institutions" describing the same thing ? I do believe so. "State" has a clear definition. If it functions in a democratic way, it is a democracy, if it does not, it is a dictatorship. In both, democracy and dictatorship, there are state institutions. In a democracy they are under democratic control, while in a dictatorship they are obviously not. I would not like it, nevertheless, to always have to call institutions of a democratic state "democratic institutions" . The term "state institution" would then get the negative implication of being an institution of a non-democratic state. I will thus consciously use the term "state institution" . When using this term, I mean to include the whole range of governmental and administrative, parliamentary and judiciary institutions. I also include the ones on regional and municipal level.
Of what nature is the relation between an individual and a state institution on one hand, and the organisations of civil society on the other? I would like to compare three elements of state structures with the ones of civil society: the individual's affiliation, the use of force and finally the basic values.
First, let me say a word about affiliation, about belonging. I always belong to a state. The question could only be which state, or how many states. But once that question is answered, I cannot be excluded from a state, at least not in a civilised system. Even if I never took part in elections, I can still participate in the next ones. I will also have to pay taxes, a situation we do not always appreciate, but one we have to accept. In civil society this is all very different. If I do not want to pay membership fees in an association any longer, or if I do not like an organisation's activities any longer I can always withdraw my membership. I can resign from civil society. I can also feel excluded from it. Civil society has a right to exclude, a right that the state has not. The state, by definition, bears responsibility for everyone.
On the next point, the use of force, I would like to be very plain. The use of force, be it military or police, always has to remain in the hands of the state. The division between civil society and the state must never be vague. Private armies are the beginning of the end of a functioning state. The state has to set up rules for civil society in order for this not to happen. I will come back to this.
Now, let me come to the last point of comparison between civil society and the state: the basic values. There are no limits as to what values an organisation of civil society can pursue. And that is exactly where the problem lies: an organisation of civil society can advocate very questionable ideas. Who prevents such an organisation from being racist ? Or who hinders a religious group from preaching intolerance and to rigorously force it upon their members ? The answer is simple: only the state can. The state is built upon a constitution where every citizen's basic rights are clearly defined. Civil society does not have a constitution. Therefore, again the state has to integrate civil society by law. Because only the state can guarantee and implement values and basic rights. Because only the state has the monopoly on justice and the use of force.
Now let me explain why I think it is so important to be clear about definitions, especially when looking at the situation in south-eastern Europe.
In this context we will have to look at the question of the individual's identity. Any individual should have many identities. These can be freely chosen identities such as cultural, professional or political ones; but also identities one is born with, such as family or ethnic origin. As I am formed by the ideals of the French revolution, I would like to consider religious identification to be a freely chosen one. In south-eastern Europe however, most people think about religion as something you are born into. In addition to all these identities there must also be a civic identity. Be it a freely chosen one, or one an individual is born with. But even civic identity can have several levels. It concerns not only the state, but can be regional or even communal. Being European, finally, is an additional civic identity.
The most important task for civil society is it to guarantee the individual's many identities. Individuals with many identities are an enrichment for society and for the state. These persons are in fact the pillars a state is built upon. They are the ones that ensure peace in society. Because none of their different identities can ever totally absorb them.
It is very dangerous, if people develop mono-identities. The implications of such a development can be observed in sects and cults that demand total identification, complete absorption that excludes all other identities. This brings us to the central issue of the conflicts that took place in south-eastern Europe in the last couple of years. In these situations of conflict, ethnicity started to completely dominate over all other forms of identification including civic identity. Such development bears pathological features.
Who defines himself only by ethnicity – who only accepts one mono-identity – does not see anymore that one of the functions of the state's institutions must be to provide political mechanisms to balance differing interests, be they political, economic, ethnic or of other origin. People who are infected with this kind of thinking accept statehood only as a cover for a single and ethnically clean group. Just how dangerous this notion is, has been sufficiently demonstrated by the recent wars in former Yugoslavia.
The effects of not accepting state institutions can presently still be observed in Bosnia. Unfortunately it is still possible in today's Bosnia that the state as such is rejected. For example if governments refuse to take responsibility for police actions claiming that they have no authority over the police in a certain area or because certain police organs are not under their control. Or if judicial decisions are simply not enforced if in favour of a person with another ethnic origin than preferred by the authorities. Or if parliaments have difficulties to function, because this would be accepting inter-ethnic co-operation, which is exactly what certain members of parliament decidedly do not want.
But still some people elect these same politicians. And this will not change as long as ethnicity – ethnically defined identity – dictates everything. It will not change as long as civic identity does not take its place again in the consciousness of the people. It will stay this way until the notion of being protected by one's own ethnic group is replaced by trust in the state's capacity of protection. It will stay this way until ethnically motivated violence is replaced by the state monopoly on the use of force.
Before I come to my conclusion, let me add a brief historical remark. The Council of Europe was established as an answer to the Second World War. For many years after the end of the war nobody spoke about Civil Society. It was during the Cold War that this term appeared. Then the idea was to strengthen the dissidents against the totalitarian states in Central and Eastern Europe. Today we are confronted with a different problem. We are facing state structures that do not or not yet function. Is this situation it would be inappropriate to make people think that Civil Society could in any way replace state structures.
So let me come to the following simple conclusion: Efforts to promote civil society in the sense of a renewal of private interest groups and networks do make sense. The most important task for civil society is to guarantee the individual's many identities. If, however, parallel or even previous efforts to strengthen civic consciousness and functioning state institutions lag behind, any promotion of civil society may well be without success.

How to strategically edit for timeline inconsistencies (#IWSG blog hop)
I write crime fiction, so there are often references to when the crime occurred in relation to when in the story the discussion about the crime is taking place. "The girl with the blue hair, I saw her four days ago in the alley behind the curling club," for example. Here's my two-step, no-software-required process for ironing out timeline inconsistencies.
The value in reworking your metaphors #AuthorToolboxBlogHop
Have you ever noticed, when reading a metaphor, that the idea is solid, but the execution hasn't quite hit the mark? And when I say metaphor, I'm referring to all subcategories of metaphorical language (simile, metaphor personification, etc.) For this post, I've decided to take early drafts of some of my own metaphors from my current novel, describe what wasn't working, and then you can compare it to the revision. My hope is that this will help other writers identify issues with their own metaphorical language and rework accordingly. Click the title above to continue reading.
My Microsoft Word manuscript template for authors (#IWSG Blog Hop)
A few chapters into my first book, I got fed up with all the scrolling. Many authors use apps such as Scrivener to more easily move between chapters and scenes. Scrivener has many other functions, but I prefer working in Microsoft Word. I decided to take advantage of Word's table, linking, and formula functions, and the result is a template, that after much tinkering, does everything I need it to do.

How to spice up setting with an event (#IWSG blog hop)
In Jessica Strawser's debut Almost Missed You, two characters have a life-changing date at Cincinnati's Lumenocity, an orchestra-curated light-show.

How much more exciting does Pride and Prejudice become once the Bennett sisters have a ball to look forward to? Some of these events are more integral to plot than others, but all of them make the stories they're included in more interesting as a result. Click the title above to continue reading.

Being a parent is a busy job with few vacation days, limited lunch breaks, and absolutely no sick days! It's easy to understand why finding time to work out is often a challenge for parents. Self-care is important though, and can actually give you the energy you need to get everything checked off your To Do list each day.
To help you out, we've compiled our favorite tips for sneaking in a workout while you're on parenting duty.
Tip #1: Always Be Prepared
Keep a bag packed, just in case. Your bag should include headphones, water, a towel, wipes (for after), a little spritzer, and athletic clothes. At the very least, throw a pair of athletic shoes in your car so you'll always be able to get up and go!
Tip #2: Walk EVERYWHERE
Now that you've got your bag packed and shoes at the ready, you'll never have an excuse to sit on the sidelines. That's right. Kid's soccer practice? Walk instead of sit in the chair. Drop-off birthday party? Hit the pavement and steer clear of the goodies! Beyond sneaking in walks while you're waiting, find opportunities to purposefully walk: to the bus stop, to school, anywhere you're going. Park at the back of the grocery store parking lot, and in Target, go down every aisle instead of bee-lining for what you need (assuming you can handle the extra temptations)! Any time you can, add some steps to your day—they add up!
Tip #3: Break It Up
Speaking of small steps adding up, keep in mind that exercise doesn't have to happen for thirty minutes a day, 3 days a week, to count. Every minute your heart rate is elevated (even slightly) or your muscles are taxed, it counts! So don't stop looking for opportunities to get in longer bouts of exercise, but make use of the little opportunities you might be missing. Find short workout routines or create your own, and whenever you find you have 5 or 10 free minutes, get to it! Try these 10-minute workouts to start.
Tip #4: Multi-Task
You know you brag about it—how much you can get done simultaneously! Now, put that to work. Along the same lines as Tip #3, you don't have to wait for the perfect time or place to exercise, just sneak it in with your everyday activities. At the grocery store, try carrying two shopping baskets instead of pushing the cart (much easier when you're alone). Standing in line at the store, try curling the shopping baskets (or your baby!), doing a few calf raises, or squats. On hold? How 'bout walking lunges through the house (put the toddler on your back for added fun)? During bath-time monitoring, get on the floor and hold a plank!
Tip #5: Do Chores Like a BOSS!
That's right; step up the housecleaning game and turn these must-dos into workouts. Set a timer and see how quickly you can get your daily chores completed. If you're moving faster from room to room, you're sure to burn some extra calories. Need to go up and down the stairs to put away laundry? Why not take several trips instead of trying to do it all at once? While unloading the dishwasher, add a few countertop push-ups in between.
Tip #6: Play!
Why not enjoy some of the activities your kids are doing? Take a trip to the playground and get in on the action. Here's a fun playground workout if your kids are old enough to play by themselves, or ways to sneak in some playground fun with little ones in tow. Have dance parties in your kitchen while cooking dinner. Or even better, turn your workout into your kiddos' fun time: Set up an obstacle course and turn your sweat sesh into a family affair.
Tip 7: Find Time
Perhaps it's time to simply renegotiate. Every stage of your child's life comes with a new set of rules, expectations, and time constraints. The best advice of all might be sitting down with a calendar and finding where workouts can fit in these days and then scheduling them. Do you need to wake up earlier? Stay up later? Do short workouts during morning and afternoon naps? Do you need to trade with your spouse or a friend to get to the gym? You may just need a little time management adjustment to find time for the activities you enjoy!
Bottom line, prioritizing your self-care is extremely important for the health and well being of your entire family. Giving yourself the gift of daily activity provides a wellspring of energy, which helps you stay grounded and present for your kiddos. Not to mention, the good example you are setting will help your little ones grow up knowing that taking care of yourself isn't a luxury, but a necessity. That might just be the best gift you could ever give them!

Scripture of the month: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. (Luke 6: 20,21)
Many of the Yadav are living in poverty. Some of them struggle with material poverty and that's hard to live with but most of them are spiritual poor. As they are spiritual poor they are also spiritual hungry! People who are spiritual hungry become sad. It may be that they even become so sad that they feel like weeping… but if culture says that a man doesn't weep…. Life can be hard, very hard but blessed are those who weep for they will laugh!!! Let's proclaim this scripture over the Yadav and other unreached people groups of the world. Let's proclaim it over people and places with deep sadness and He will do it!
God bless you all.

pretty easy to set up, but wish the design didn't include the completely unnecessary circle graphic. it eats up real estate and pushes actual products further down the screen. it also is not clear at first to the end user that it's where a check mark will eventually go once the min has been satisfied. also there is no general free shipping option -- only with threshold. finally, there is a bug - when you scroll down and then scroll up again, there is a random extra white bar that shows up between your logo and nav bar.

When making the selection of a tutor for your child, the following simple pointers can improve the outcome of the experience.
Friendly Persuasion
Rather than introducing your child to the tutor like a problem to a solution, consider improving the transmission of knowledge from the beginning by getting your child's opinion and feelings on the issue.
Keep everything positive and upbeat; no child wants to struggle and have a hard time in school. If they already know that mathematics, for example, is a difficult subject let them know that a teacher is here to make things a bit clearer and easier. There may still be some apprehension, but with encouragement, your child will soon come around.
Consider Priorities
There is a wealth of option open to the child in need of tutoring, taking the time to consider the objectives you hope to accomplish will ultimately lead to the best tutor for your specific needs. There are private services and tutoring centers that provide more personalized attention than the typical classroom.
Online tutoring is also an option that certainly adds convenience to the solution. At every point, consider the needs of your child specifically. Will they benefit more from individual attention? Or perhaps their skills would be better developed through frequent work and progress?
Cost should be an important consideration, only a sustainable plan will be ultimately effective, but it is more important that the child receives the attention they need.
Begin your search with names and connections you know are reliable and effective. If your friend's or relative's child received extraordinary attention from a specific tutor, there is a good chance this is a winning pick.
You may even ask the school if they keep a list of quality tutors, or fully understand, the learning process they apply. It can help ensure your child is kept abreast with classwork and reduces the confusion that can come from differences in nomenclature and other small details.
Finally, the online search can produce a great many good options in your area, never select a tutor on face value only, be sure you get in touch with references and do your background checks with greater caution than you'd apply when selecting a brain surgeon.
Check Credentials
Even after you have found a small crowd of options from reliable connections, you will still need to size them up to the task at hand and choose the winner. While the level may seem far beyond your child's needs, a tutor with a college level education and a tutor training under their belt will provide a far better service.
Knowledge of educational theory and practice as well as remedial approaches allow3 the task to be approached from a multitude of directions to achieve effective knowledge transmission. Furthermore, ask about the experiences they have had with children similar to your own.
What were their preferred methods of approach? How did they achieve their goals? Finally, make sure the tutor's personality is compatible with your child's learning habits. A bubbly and cheery tutor can annoy a serious and studious child, and the reverse is also true.
Check References
Checking the track record of any prospective candidates is essential. You will not only want to be sure that his previous clients have been satisfied with the service but to what extent. Get proof that this tutor can elevate tests scores and gain the other attainments you hope to achieve.
Perfect Timing
These extracurricular studies can throw a schedule in a tailspin. Nevertheless, it is essential that they are addressed at a time when your child is most receptive to the instruction and will, therefore, benefit greatly.
Some students work best moving straight from class to their tutoring without skipping a beat. Others need a good hour or so to eat, rest and prepare their mind for more work. Speak with your child about the best time for them and prepare for a small margin of error and some needed adjustments if this is the first time.
The best way to pursue tutoring is as a team. Make sure teachers, parents, child, and tutor are all aligned to the same goals.
Teachers and tutors will provide plenty of right direction toward these goals, but it will be up to the parent to choose the most effective route to the goals shared by all. Communication will be essential to efficacy and allow for specific details and methods to be reinforced.
Progress Reports and Details
Be sure your tutor provides you with a clear picture of their progress reports as well as how and when they will be delivered. These performance indicators will show how your child is faring on their path to their goals.
If these are not well suited to your needs and goals, the projects can be botched. Furthermore, consider hammering out some policies for canceling a class, providing a substitute as well as payment schedules.
The Parents Role
As the parent, it is essential that you do not "get the ball rolling" and search for "physics tutors near me" in Google. Your encouragement and support will make all the difference in the way your child perceives the tutoring and benefits from instruction. At the end of each session, ask about what was covered and what the plan is for the next class.

Termas Los Pozones
After climbing Volcán Villarrica yesterday, I decided to cross the last item off my Pucón todo list: soaking in one of the many local "termas," or hot springs.
I ended up booking transportation through Aguaventura with another Volcán climber, and we left to the hot springs at 8pm. The drive was scenic and took us through the farming countryside, with Volcán Villarrica looming in the distance. We met two other friendly travelers on the shuttle, so we made a group of four once we arrived to the hot springs, Los Pozones, at around 9pm; we had two hours to soak in one of the five or so pools.
I'll try to upload pictures once I can connect my camera to a computer, but the area was very well maintained, and the hot springs were clean, not too crowded, and quite soothing (especially after a day of hiking). The three pools that we tried all varied in temperature, from being just a bit too hot, just a bit too cool, and just right. We spent about half of our time in the pool that was just right, wishing that we could have some more time here… Next time!

Our Salvation and the Eye of a Needle
Pastor Jim Kniseley presented this sermon at Resurrection on October 14, 2012, the 20th Sunday after Pentecost. The sermon text is Mark 10: 25, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."
Dear Friends in Christ,
In our gospel lesson for today, a man asks a question of Jesus and gets an answer that he did not expect. Remember the question? Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?
It's a question anyone of us here today might ask, because it is a question very much on the minds of many religious folks. The young man expected Jesus to say, keep all the commandments, observe all the religious rituals, be faithful in all your relationships, and you will earn your place in heaven.
When Jesus heard that this man had done everything required to be counted as a really good man in the eyes of the temple and synagogue leaders, he looked at this man and told him something that utterly shocked him: You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me. And Mark tells us what happened on that occasion: When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions.
How do you hear these words of Jesus today? Was Jesus too harsh on this good man? Do you think that Jesus should have given him a real pat on the back and told him, "We need more people like you"? You are doing great. Keep it up and your way to heaven is assured?"
Does anyone hear think that Jesus is also speaking to us here today? Many of us have lots of worldly possessions. Others among us don't have so much in worldly possessions. But let's put ourselves into this Bible story. If instead of the rich young man, I write down that Jim Kniseley came to Jesus and asked, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life. I'm a pastor and a part of the church all my life. I tithe, I try my best to keep all the commandments. Haven't I have earned my place in heaven?" What would I write next in the story? Jesus, looking at me, loves me and says, "You lack one thing…" I wonder what I would write down, what is something that I value so highly that gets in the way of my relationship with God and endangers my path into heaven? What about you? What is something that you have or want that is so important that Jesus would have a warning for you?
Please look at the image on the front of our bulletins today. We see a camel and a needle with a hole or an eye. Please keep looking at that image as I read the words of Jesus: It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God. Why would Jesus say that? What does he mean? If you understand what Jesus means, I have a promise for you today. The promise is that you will understand how to inherit eternal life.
Here's the truth: It is impossible for that camel to go through that the eye of that needle. A person who depends on their own resources and smarts to get into heaven won't make it. It is impossible. Here's another truth: With God, all things are possible. In Jesus Christ alone, God makes it possible for us mortal and frail and flawed human beings to enter his kingdom. In order to get into that kingdom, we depend on nothing else except Jesus Christ.
Let me conclude with a true story. It is not a comforting story, but then Jesus didn't always care about making people comfortable, as evidenced today in his encounter with the rich man. I'm indebted to Pastor Bill Bouknight for this story… A Baptist minister, really a prophet, The Rev. Will Campbell from North Carolina was invited to preach at the prestigious Riverside Church in New York City. Ever been to that magnificent church, built by John D. Rockefeller? The sanctuary is almost 1/5 of a mile long. That church has long been noted for its activist preachers and liberal, politically correct agenda. Will Campbell was asked to preach on this subject: "What Riverside Church Can Do to Help the Future of Race Relations in America." Campbell took for his text the same one I am using today, the story of the rich young man. At the beginning of his sermon, he asked, "What can Riverside Church do to help race relations? What can this church do to relate to its next-door neighbors in Harlem?" "Nothing," said Campbell, "nothing…unless you sell your big building and give it to the poor. Let's go out on the street and see what you can get for this big building."
Needless to say, the host preacher and the congregation were not amused. In fact, some of them were down right angry. They wanted an answer that was reasonable, practical, and fashionable; not some shocking, outrageous answer. A liberal congregation had been out-liberaled.
This is what Pastor Bouknight concludes: Will Campbell and Jesus have at least this in common: they shocked people often. Obviously Jesus allowed no committee of political handlers to edit his material. He said things like, "I have not come to bring peace, but a sword." "If your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out." When Jesus met the rich young man, he lobbed another spiritual hand grenade. Jesus had the gall to tell a wealthy person to go and sell all that he owned, without even checking with his accountant, and to give it all to the poor, and then to come and follow him. Whoever heard of such a thing?"
Dear Resurrection People, when you come to church and are offended by something you hear in the scripture reading or in the preaching, I hope you will consider, "Is this God telling me something? Is my conscience being pricked? Am I placing something in my life higher than my relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ?" If the answer is yes, what are you going to do about it?
As the words of the 8:30 hymn of the day say it: See ye first the kingdom of God…
As the words of the 11:00 hymn of the day say it: You will ever be my all in all…
To God alone be the glory. Amen!

Seymour – Crash Update
Authorities just released more info regarding last Wednesday's crash in Seymour.
At approximately 4:30 p.m., 65-year-old Marguerite Jachimowski was driving her 2005 Mercury Sable on Holbrook Road when her foot got stuck under the brake pedal as the vehicle approached Jacko Drive. Because of this, her vehicle was forced off the roadway and into an embankment. Jachimowski sustained serious injuries in the crash and was trapped inside her car. She was eventually extricated by responding firefighters and treated by medical personnel. The incident is still under investigation. More updates will be provided when appropriate.
Evidence already available in this case seems to point to driver error as the cause. But the fact that the driver's foot was trapped under the brake pedal and why that happened in the first place merits a more comprehensive investigation of the incident. There have been many instances of product defects/failures causing accidents in the past, so these factors should not be overlooked despite the relative condition of the involved vehicle and the age of the operator. Whatever the outcome, if any form of negligence not associated with the driver is discovered, she (and other motorists in similar situations) may have legal options at her disposal, avenues that can help her cope and eventually find closure.
If you or someone you care about was injured in an accident, you may need help navigating the complex challenges of paying for your medical bills, recouping your lost wages, and regaining your quality of life. The Connecticut attorneys with Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers can help you through this process, working to hold the responsible party accountable for the pain and suffering you have had to endure.

Hello, firstable, excuse me for my lack in english.
New to this forum, I have a question about SLES 11 in VMWare ESXi 4.1 build 582267 using VMXNET3 as network card.
Here is the situation :
- The operating System
Code:cat /etc/SuSE-brand SLES VERSION = 11 CO-BRANDS = SLE openSUSE cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL = 1
This VM has 4 NIC using VMXNET3 'hardware'.
The problem is :
If I use YAST2 with the curse interface to configure the NIC, the card name does not change and stay "VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller," but if I use YAST2 in command line (yast2 lan edit id=0 bootprot=static ip=....), then the NIC name changes to "Ethernet Network Card" (Carte rķseau Ethernet in french).
The NIC does not lost any funtionnality but it puzzles me.
I don't know why this occurs and how to change the NIC name, I have already restart the VM, restart VMware Tools, etc., with no effects.
Can someone help me ? TIA
