France Shocked At CCTV Of Woman Being Randomly Attacked On Street
"We mustn't tolerate this kind of behaviour".
France has been shocked by footage of a woman randomly attacked while walking through Paris on Tuesday night.
Marie Laguerre, 22, was walking in the 19th Arrondissement, when a man began abusing her and making suggestive noises.
"He was able to send me noises / comments / whistles / dirty tongue, humiliating and provocative in my passage," she wrote on Facebook.
"No luck. It wasn't the first of the day, and I was tired. So I dropped a "shut up".
"Because I don't tolerate this kind of behaviour. I can't shut up and we mustn't shut up."
Laguerre said that he threw an ashtray at her, then came back, "in the middle of the day, in front of dozens of witnesses", and hit her in the face. The CCTV footage she posted to Facebook shows her body thrown with the force of the punch.
"He's not the only one," she continued. "Harassment is daily. These men who think they're all allowed on the street, who can humiliate us and don't stand to be offended, that's unacceptable. It's time for this kind of behaviour to stop."
She used the hashtag #NousToutes, which translates to #AllOfUs. It is not quite the rallying cry of #MeToo of France, which has largely adopted the hashtag #BalanceTonPorc, or #OutYourPig.
"I felt hated," she told local paper Le Parisien. "I refused to be demeaned, it was humiliating. I refused to look down, I looked him right in the eyes, I was not going to apologise.
Her post has gone viral, with the video being seen over 10,000 times, and attracting more than 2,000 comments.
Most comments have applauded her bravery in speaking out, while some -- as they pretty much always do -- questioned why the people around her did not immediately leap to her defence.
"To all those who say that the witnesses have not reacted enough; everything happened very quickly and they did not have time to understand the situation," she said.
"The attacker was dangerous. After the assault, I came back and witnesses were of great support."
It comes after the French Government announced in March that sexual harassment in public spaces -- which encompasses "annoying, following and threatening" someone, as well as sexist comments -- would be punishable by an on-the-spot fine of €90 (about AUD$142).
After the attack made headlines in France, the French qualities minister, Marlène Schiappa, who introduced the fines, said that she was "outraged... but not surprised, unfortunately."
"The issue of violence against women should no longer be a private issue, but a real societal issue that affects all of us," Schiappa said in parliament.
"It is a question of society and it must be denounced!"
Laguerre filed a complaint, and the Paris public prosecutor's office has opened an investigation. The attacker has not yet been caught.

Sylvia Heloisa Arantes Cruz
Faculdade de ciências médicas da santa casa de São Paulo, Brazil;
Title: High risk HPV DNA test on the screening of anal lesions in HIV-positive and negative patients
Sylvia Heloisa Arantes Cruz has completed her PhD at the age of 35 years from Santa Casa de São Paulo - Brazil. She is an assistant professor at Santa Casa de São Paulo – Brazil and her research is on screening anal cancer in HIV-positive patients
The high incidence of anal dysplasia is related to many factors. The infections caused by HPV and the HIV seem to be determinant of the following anal Pap smear changes: atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS), low-grade anal intraepithelial (LAIN) and high-grade anal intraepithelial (HAIN). High-risk HPV infection is confirmed by HPV DNA test, using Hybrid capture technology. The screening for anal lesions should be complemented with anal Pap smear protocol and high-resolution anoscopy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of high risk HPV DNA test on the screening of anal lesions. We evaluated 70 HIV-positive and negative patients who had previously had anal intercourse, at CRT/AIDS São Paulo from January 2013 to December 2013. All of the patients underwent the high risk HPV DNA test, anal Pap smear protocol and high-resolution anoscopy. The anal lesions were treated with 90% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and 5% imiquimod for 12 weeks. The statistical analysis was performed using hypothesis tests of proportions and the significance level was set at less than 5%. 31 HIV-positive male patients, 19 HIV-negative male patients and 20 HIV-negative female patients were evaluated. 28 HIV-positive patients were positive to high risk HPV DNA test and 29 patients were positive to high risk HPV DNA test and had anal dysplasia. Our conclusion was that it was more common for HIV-positive patients to be infected by oncogenic HPV and that anal dysplasia was correlated to oncogenic HPV

Tilney BestInvest subsidiary, Tilney for Intermediaries, has launched a range of five risk-rated, multi-asset funds.
Gareth Lewis, Tilney Bestinvest's CIO said the emergence of smart and 'alternative beta' funds has been one of the most "significant and exciting" developments of the past two decades in the investment management sector.
"These advanced passive investments greatly enhance the scope for investment managers like us to express active asset allocation views in a much more granular way than has been previously possible through use of traditional index funds.
"As the recent market turmoil and slide in commodity stocks reminds us, there are serious drawbacks in investing solely through traditional passive products, as these leave investors fully exposed to losses in a declining market but also the risks of sector valuation bubbles in rising markets," he added.
Co-managed by Lewis, and director of investment strategy Ben Seager-Scott, the five passive funds will replicate the asset allocation approach on sister funds in Tilney Bestinvest's existing £1 billion strong Multi-Asset Portfolio fund range.
The five strategies, cautious, balanced, growth, aggressive growth and income each correspond to the profiles of leading independent risk-profiling firms Distribution Technology and Finametrica and have an AMC of 0.65% with the OCF capped at 1%, with a minimum investment of £1,000.

From 2017-2018 the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, in conjunction with the EFC and Tighe & Bond, conducted surveys of water and wastewater rates for local government and other utilities in the state of New Hampshire to produce the resources listed below.
Description of the NH Water and Wastewater Rates Survey
New Hampshire's utilities use many different water and wastewater rate structures. These different rates and rate structures have financial impacts on revenue stability, household expenditures, and water use behavior. Various rate strategies influence resource use differently and, conversely, efforts to curtail resource use (for example, conservation) have unique revenue impacts depending on a utility's rates, rate structure, and customer base. Information on how utilities in New Hampshire charge for water and wastewater services is important for utilities in benchmarking their current rates and financial performance.

The mission of the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) is to help sustain a high quality of life for all citizens by protecting and restoring the environment and public health in New Hampshire. The protection and wise management of the state of New Hampshire's environment are the important goals of the NHDES. The department's responsibilities range from ensuring high levels of water quality for water supplies, ecological balance, and recreational benefits, to regulating the emissions of air pollutants, to fostering the proper management of municipal and industrial waste, to managing water resources for future generations.
|The Environmental Finance Center (EFC) at the University of North Carolina reaches local communities through the delivery of interactive applied training programs and technical assistance. The EFC at UNC sees one of its major roles as increasing the capacity of other organizations to address the financial aspects of environmental protection and service delivery. For this reason and to support the leveraging of resources, the EFC does most of its training in a collaborative manner – partnering with established organizations that have environmental but not necessarily financial expertise. In addition to direct community outreach, the EFC works with decision makers to assess the effectiveness of environmental finance policies at a regional or state level, and to improve those policies as a way of supporting local efforts.

Greetings my friends and welcome back to another exciting chapter of my coverage of the 2018 New York Comic Con. As I've noted in an earlier chapter, this is my 9th straight year of attending the convention and I am blown away by how big its become. It's the highlight of many a geeks year and I can't blame them since there is so much to enjoy. To keep your focus, I've begun to break the days down into chapters and to see any of the stuff that's come before this narrative just click HERE to open a new tab with all of the posts that have gone live on the website. In the preceding chapter, I lauded the benefits of the Cheerios cereal found in the Family Room and here is the box that I secured my stash in during the days wander.
Generally speaking, I start my first day coverage in "The Block" but so far today I was being aimless and drifting about from section to section. I wanted to see some artist friends so quickly headed to the Artist Alley area.
The legendary Marv Wolfman was at the convention this year. I never met him before and was happy to get a chance to say hello.

But despite the fact that charcoal grills have been existing for decades, buying them can still be fairly testing, except you're extremely experienced. In order to identify the ideal model for your needs, you must consider some important factors like cooking area, materials used, weight and dimensions of the grill.

Coupled with its compact size, this product is also completely foldable, which means you can effortlessly put it in the trunk of your car and take it wherever you like. Moving on, the grill is outfitted with seven vents for both dust discharge and ventilation, which helps it add better taste to your food.
The product can serve you for many years with proper care and maintenance, but keep an eye on the legs especially since the material it is made from is not that sturdy. Also, the assembly instructions are rather difficult to understand at first. Once you get a hang of it though, you will realize it's actually simpler than it seems.
- Comes with a silicon handle
- Compact and foldable design
- Fairly large cooking area
- Reasonably priced
- Two lid locks for transportation

Char-Griller E2828 Pro Deluxe Charcoal Grill Best Large Portable Charcoal Grill
- Cooking area: 580 sq. in. + 270 sq. in. warming rack
- Materials: steel; cast iron cooking grates
- Dimensions: 42 x 29 x 50 inches
- Weight: 90 lbs.
More features: heat gauge; wood side shelf; 8-inch wheels
With a primary cooking area that measures 580 square inches plus a 270-square inch warming rack, the total 850 square inches delivered by this unit is enough to handle any kind of party or get-together. In fact, the grill can be used as both a cooker and a defroster at the same time, thanks to the incredibly large total cooking surface. Moving on, the unit also comes with cast iron grates in four lift-able sections for easy access to the coals, thereby providing the user with optimum comfort. And considering the product has a powder-coated finish on it, users have no reason to bother whatsoever.
Furthermore, this product is equipped with an adjustable charcoal grate and an easy-dump ash pan. The grill's cart is also made using tubular steel, whilst its body is built with heavy-duty steel, making it an incredibly durable unit. Besides its durability, it is also portable – it features large eight-inch wheels, which is why it is extremely easy to transport. The unit also includes other useful features like condiment basket, wooden side shelf with utensil hooks, a large base wire shelf, and a temperature gauge.
The grill's construction is designed to keep smoke and heat inside, thereby giving the food an excellent smoke flavor. There are air vents on the side of the grill to allow for easy temperature control. Generally, this is a great product with only a few drawbacks. In fact, the most prominent complaint is the difficult-to-understand instructions.
- Easy to clean
- High durability
- Very large cooking area
- Nice temperature control
- Difficult to understand instructions
Weber 10020 Smokey Joe 14-Inch Portable Grill Budget Pick
- Cooking grate diameter: 14 inches
- Height: 17 inches
- Materials: steel; porcelain enameled lid and bowl
- Weight: 9.5 lbs.
More features: ash leak under the bowl; 4 dampers on the lid
If the Weber 10020 Smokey Joe Portable Grill doesn't impress you, we doubt any charcoal grill will ever get you impressed. It features everything you might want to see in a charcoal grill while being affordable at that. For optimum rust resistance, the grill has a porcelain-enameled coating, a bottom and top air vent, a triple nickel-plated grate, and a glass reinforced nylon handle. While it's not the biggest model you'll find out there, it can easily make food for two to three individuals, fitting three steaks or six burgers at a time.
However, it takes a little learning to be able to cook with this unit. In fact, the temperature controls may take you a few times to master perfectly. Generally, every meal made is delicious, and since there is a ten-year warranty on the unit, you can rest easy knowing you're covered. The only few downsides we noticed is the lack of a locking mechanism and the fact that the grill has no handles. Consequently, transportation may be a bit difficult.
The Weber 10020 is also very portable and super light, which may somewhat make up for the lack of handles and a locking mechanism. Also, considering the very affordable price of this model, we think it delivers a lot of value for the investment. If you're on a budget and looking for a portable charcoal grill for your on-the-road cooking, you might want to check this one out.
- Portable and lightweight
- Delivers a lot of value for money
- Easy to get the coals burning
- Great temperature control
- Long ten-year warranty
- Takes some learning to use
- No handles and doesn't feature a locking mechanism for the lid

- Weight: 91 lbs.
More features: LCD cook timer; built-in lid thermometer; Touch-N-Go ignition system
Weber is an incredibly reputable grill company, and having released a lot of high-quality grills in the past, it is only impressive rather than surprising that their Weber 15507001 Performer Deluxe Charcoal Grill performs amazingly well. For a portable charcoal grill, the 363-square-inch cooking area on this one is super remarkable. It's large enough to accommodate all of your home cooking needs and help you grill conveniently for every member of your family.
The unit comes with an inbuilt lid thermometer which shows the grill's internal temperature to allow you to know when to regulate the heat. Besides that, the unit also features a one-touch cleaning system which offers easy cleanup by swiping debris and charcoal ash into a detachable ash catcher. And in case you're wondering if a charcoal grill will be as simple to use as a gas grill, the electronic ignition system helps you to ignite the charcoal effortlessly, which should tell you something about the ease of use of this product. It even has a mounted timer so that you will be able to set timers for grilling sessions and preheat.
When it comes to controls, keeping an eye on the temperature of this grill is super easy as well – you only need to adjust the dampers as completely closing the them will stop the flow of oxygen to help douse coals. The charcoal container incorporated offers convenient storage for your charcoal, allowing you to easily take it whenever you need it. The only con users could find is the seemingly low-quality material which corrodes quickly and makes it unsuitable for uncovered outdoor storag
- Excellent temperature controls
- Easy to use and clean
- Electronic ignition system
- Features a charcoal storage
- Fairly large cooking area
- Not suitable for outdoor storage
Char-Griller E22424 Table Top Charcoal Grill Best Charcoal Grill under $100
- Cooking area: 250 sq. in.
- Materials: stainless steel; cast iron cooking grates
- Dimensions: 18.5 x 17 x 16 inches
- Weight: 40 lbs.
More features: sliding drawer; can be used as a smoker/side fire box
Lightweight and portable, the Char-Griller Table Top Grill is another high-quality product on our list and the fact that it's priced so low despite its many features is an incredible act of generosity of Char-Griller. Just like most Char-Griller's products, this one too can be utilized for different grilling purposes, which include long-haul smoking, lower temperature, and fast barbecue grilling. Despite being a portable grill, it has a 250-square-inch cooking space, which is perfect for small areas such as balconies or patios, or for camping and picnicking.
Going further, this portable grill from Char-Grill is produced using durable, heavy-duty steel, which allows it to serve you well even under severe weather conditions. Apart from that, the grill also comes with a detachable ash catcher that makes it easy to clean. The design also allows for simple access to every area. Moreover, the cast iron grate enables even temperature all across the cooking area and won't tarnish even when exposed to a lot of heat.
However, the grates are too close to coals, which may affect the durability of the grate in the long run. Besides, the grill only measures 16 inches in height, and that may be inconvenient, especially if you're a fairly tall person. But it comes completely assembled, which makes it perfect for tailgating or trips. It's smaller construction makes it more suitable for people with limited space, and its fuel economy prevents too much smoke production as well.
- Great fuel economy
- Easy to assemble
- Heats evenly and holds heat well
- Durable construction
- Easy to clean
- Grates are near the coals
- Too short
Megamaster 810-0026 Kettle Premium Charcoal Grill Best Heat Retention
- Cooking grate diameter: 22.5 inches
- Height: 43.3 inches
- Materials: porcelain-enameled lid and bowl, aluminized steel cleaning system; rust-resistant aluminum legs
- Weight: 29.3 lbs.
More features: built-in temperature gauge; 2 two-piece handles
Like Weber and Char-Griller, Megamaster is also one of the leading manufacturers of charcoal grills in the world, and with high-performing products like the Megamaster 810-0026 Kettle Premium charcoal grill, they don't seem to be ready to relinquish their spot at the top of the game. Easy to assemble and even easier to use and maintain, the Megamaster 810-0026 is engineered to improve any get-together or gathering. Apart from being easy to use and maintain, this unit delivers a level of performance that makes it comparable with models in the higher end.
For maximum heat protection, easy cleaning, and optimum heat retention, this unit is outfitted with silicone handles, detachable ash catcher, and a porcelain-enameled lid and bowl. Its 379 square inch-cooking area is actually one of the largest for portable charcoal grills, and the fairly wide cooking surface means this unit can easily handle most of your get-togethers, meetings, and small parties. It also has an incorporated temperature gauge, which apart from being easy to read, offers precise temperature control.
With all the excellent features it boasts, this charcoal grill has been perfectly designed to help you achieve flawlessly cooked foods. However, there is not enough distance between the brick grate and the cooking grate, which might cause too much heat and subsequently cause your food to burn if not controlled properly. Apart from that though, there aren't many issues you will encounter on this grill.
- Easy to assemble
- Easy to use and maintain
- Excellent heat retention
- Fairly large cooking area
- Functional temperature gauge
- Great temperature control
- Insufficient distance between the cooking grate and the brick grate
Char-Griller E06614 Akorn Jr. Kamado Kooker Charcoal Grill Best Fuel Economy
- Cooking grate diameter: 14 inches
- Height: 25 inches
- Materials: 22 gauge steel; porcelain enameled lid and bowl
- Weight: 37 lbs.
More features: adjustable top damper; bottom damper and ash pan
Engineered for both lengthy smoking and easy grilling, the Char-Griller E06614 Akorn Jr. Kamado Kooker Charcoal Grill makes it incredibly easy to cook any food. For maximum temperature control, the grill offers a temperature range between 200 and 700 degrees Fahrenheit. In addition, the design is fuel-efficient, which allows for less fuel consumption. By and large, this is a great charcoal grill that you just can't go wrong with.
On both sides of the Char-Griller E06614 Akorn Jr are adjustable dampers to guarantee even air circulation, thereby allowing for extraordinary temperature control. But despite being quite portable at 25 x 14 inches, this charcoal grill from Char-Griller isn't really lightweight, weighing in at almost 40 pounds. Considering the fairly heavy weight of this grill, it might not really be the perfect model for campers and tailgaters who are looking for something transportable for their trips. To make up for the heavy weight though, the manufacturers incorporated carrying handles on this one, which allows you to carry it easily.
This grill is also produced using durable and high-quality materials, which allows it to stand strong against a severe level of heat. It is, however, worth mentioning that this unit requires assembly which is super easy. Anyone with the most basic skills can assemble it – all you need is a screwdriver and some patience.
- Durable and high-quality material
- Accurate heat gauge
- Lightweight with handles
- Easy to assemble and use
- Fairly heavy
Beau Jardin Portable Charcoal Grill Best Small Portable Charcoal Grill
- Cooking grate diameter: 18 inches
- Height: 28 inches
- Materials: steel; porcelain enameled lid and bowl; aluminum legs
- Weight: 12.5 lbs.
More features: inside lid hanger hook under the lid; ash leak under the bowl
Of course, the Beau Jardin Portable Charcoal Grill isn't the most compact grill around, but the wheels it comes with help simplify its transportation. Compact, portable, durable, and functional, this unit from Beau Jardin is simply exceptional. Measuring 18 x 28 inches and featuring a lid, this charcoal grill offers adequate space for grilling. Apart from that, the unit also has perfect heat control and retention since it is produced using rust-resistant aluminum that allows for easy control of heat without lifting the lid necessarily as you cook.
Furthermore, this grill is made with heavy-duty material, which means it lasts longer and is capable of withstanding the charcoal's severe heat. With the round porcelain-enamel bowl, the grill is able to retain the heat within, and it easily flows to the meal being cooked. The lid it comes with is easy to lift, which enables you to easily remove the remaining charcoal for proper cleaning. Therefore, it is also effortless to clean after usage.
However, while this charcoal grill has a fairly large grilling space, it might be too small if you are hosting a party. It is a compact unit, so it is absolutely understandable and you might need to look at other models if a larger grill is what you need. Apart from the small grilling area, this model is almost flawless.
- Made of durable and high-quality materials
- Retains heat excellently
- Great temperature control
- Easy to clean
- Portable construction
- Not that compact, needs to be reassembled before transportation
BonNoces Portable Foldable Charcoal Grill Most Lightweight Option
- Cooking grate diameter: 11.5 inches
- Height: 8.3 inches
- Materials: stainless steel
- Weight: 2.8 lbs.
More features: comes with an anti-hot clip and an outer packing bag
With small and non-reputable companies like BonNoces producing high-quality grills all the time, maybe it's high time BBQ enthusiasts started paying attention to less popular companies. Portable, lightweight, foldable, compact, and easy to use, the BonNoces Portable Foldable Charcoal Grill is the ideal grilling option for the on-the-road BBQ enthusiasts. It also comes with a handy carry bag, so there is no doubt that this model is the ultimate portable charcoal grill.
It is produced using high-quality food-grade stainless steel, which makes it durable, reusable, safe, rust- and wear-resistant. This is the kind of grill you use for many years without encountering any design or construction problems. Also, this grill has outstanding wind resistance, which allows it to deliver high-efficiency heat collection. The grill is also engineered with several vents so that charcoal can fully burn and heat can be distributed evenly across the grill. And you don't need to worry about encountering any clean-up difficulty since the unit comes with a detachable, mess-free ash catcher.
However, despite the many upsides it has, this unit isn't without some flaws. First of all, the distance between the top mesh and coal is too much, which means the heat transferred to your food might be low and the cooking may be slow. Also, there's no cover to increase the temperature produced.
- Made with high-quality steel
- Outstanding wind resistance
- Comes with a carry bag
- Very portable construction
- Reasonably priced
- Too much distance between the top mesh and coal
- Doesn't have a cover
Sougem Portable Charcoal Grill Best Grill for Tailgating
- Cooking area: 130 sq. in.
- Materials: stainless steel
- Dimensions: 15 x 11 x 10 inches
- Weight: 7.5 lbs.
More features: V-shaped structure design; removable charcoal tray and ash catcher
While the Sougem Portable Charcoal Grill comes with great features just like the other models reviewed earlier, it isn't as popular because it's a new release. The fact that it's a new model spoils nothing though, and we're confident this grill will rapidly become one of the most popular charcoal grills in a few years. With its stylish design, perfect temperature regulating capability, and easy temperature control, you won't find many better options at this price point.
Regardless of what you want to grill, this grill will provide the perfect temperature to cook your meal effectively. But while it is seemingly too small or compact for a large family or a party, the lightweight design and portability make it the ideal option for outdoor usage. When folded, the grill looks like a small briefcase which is so ideal to take along wherever you go. It can be used for an extensive range of purposes, which include camping patio, picnics, tailgating, and outdoor parties.
Durability is always one of the key features you must consider when purchasing a grill, and this one is remarkable on that front as well since it is produced using sturdy stainless steel material. With such a durable design, you can sleep better at nights knowing that your grill is sure to serve you for many years to come.
- Strong stainless steel construction
- Lightweight and portable design
- Great heat retention capacity
- Useful for many purposes
- Easy to assemble and use
- May be too small for large tasks
Advantages of having a charcoal grill
As we said earlier, nothing beats the classic, smoky flavor of charcoal grills, and this is one of the primary reasons why BBQ lovers have a tendency of preferring this grill type. While some people believe that you only need to use wood in order to add flavor to the smoke of a gas grill, it can't just be the same (though gas and charcoal grill combos often provide the best of both worlds). The flavor may not be a big deal when you are cooking burgers and hot dogs, but it adds a whole lot of difference when you are slow roasting ribs, turkey, chicken, and the likes. Searing is another thing that brings flavor to whatever you're cooking.
If you're looking to achieve a really great searing, you will require grill that is capable of delivering a 900 degrees Fahrenheit high temperature – and other grills may not be able to perform as well as a charcoal grill in this condition. Sometimes, some gas grills are capable of reaching about 500 degrees Fahrenheit but that's pretty much the highest they can go. Some gas grills also come with sear burners that will give them the heat required for searing, but charcoal is the ideal option if you are looking to do lots of steaks simultaneously.
The ritual
There is something really special that comes along with getting your charcoal grill ready alongside your friends. Added to that, trying to ignite a fire in a charcoal grill is very thrilling. Also, learning the art of smoking and grilling perfectly seared and seasoned meat takes a little practice, and the learning comes along with a lot of fun and excitement.
The majority of charcoal grills come outfitted with wheels that improve their portability and transportability. In addition, it isn't really difficult to load a bag of charcoal, although that is not to say that gas grills aren't portable as well.
Higher temperature
Charcoal grills usually burn a lot hotter compared to regular gas grills with no infrared burners, and that is the exact thing you require when you intend to make the external part of your meat crisp while the inside stays tender and pink like steaks and lamb chops.
More budget-friendly
By and large, charcoal grills usually don't have lots of moving parts so they are often less expensive to buy and maintain when compared to high-quality gas grills. You can effortlessly get a high-quality charcoal grill such as the Weber 10020 Smokey Joe 14-Inch Portable Grill for less than a hundred dollars (also check out our top picks of the best grills under $100 if you're on a tight budget!). As a result of the less expensive maintenance as well, charcoal grills tend to last longer. You don't have to change its parts or your grill anytime soon.
Features to consider while choosing a portable charcoal grill
When choosing a portable charcoal grill, you must familiarize yourself with the proper specifications, sizes, functionality, and your preferred choice when it comes to shape, color, and more. Regardless of the amount of experience you have when it comes to charcoal, you need a couple of tips in order to get the best portable charcoal grill for your needs.
Cooking area/cooking grate diameter
If you are only looking for a portable charcoal grill to take on a romantic getaway with your partner, then the grill's cooking area or size may not make much difference, since most BBQs come with enough grilling space for two. However, the grilling area or the cooking grate diameter will become much more important if the number of individuals you are cooking for rises. Therefore, think about what you intend to be using the BBQ for before buying as a couple of extra inches can make a huge difference. With a total cooking area of 850 square inches, the Char-Griller E2828 Pro Deluxe Charcoal Grill has the largest cooking space on this list.
Materials used
Another key factor you must look into when shopping is the material used to manufacture the cooking surface of your grill. You must make sure that the cooking surface's material of your selected model is sufficiently durable and easy to clean and maintain. Besides, the material must be capable of withstanding high temperature, so ensure you select a strong material such as stainless steel.
You also need to check if your charcoal grill is outfitted with legs for stability so that you won't have to buy a table separately to set it on. You don't have to check if there are legs alone, you must also check if the legs are made with strong materials and if they are foldable. For durability, the legs must be made of sturdy and thick steel.
Based on the number of people you are intending to be cooking for and where you are planning to be using it, your charcoal grill must be very lightweight for easy transportation. Of course, the larger the BBQ, the more it weighs, which is why you must determine the amount of grilling space you really require. Fortunately, all the models featured here are portable in this or that way, and if you're looking for something lightweight enough to be carried on picnics, any of them should be suitable. Weighing less than three pounds, the BonNoces Portable Foldable Charcoal Grill.
Wheels and handles
Wheels and handles are also very important if you're looking for a portable model. While the wheels will enable you to easily move the grill from one place to another, the handles mean you can easily carry it as well. The Beau Jardin Portable Charcoal Grill and the Char-Griller E2828 Pro Deluxe Charcoal Grill are examples of models that are equipped with great wheels for easy transportability.
As with every other purchase you make, you will want a unit that is actually backed up by the company as well. When it comes to portable charcoal grills, the average warranty usually ranges from three to five years for most models. This will afford you a lot of confidence and peace of mind, as these products are often expensive investments.
Extra features
While the extra features may not automatically affect your cooking, they just increase the convenience with which you use your grill. Great examples are temperature gauges and ashtrays, which look unimportant until you actually need them. Make sure you read through the user's manual and ensure that the product you are looking at won't give you much of a problem during assembly.
How to cook a mouth-watering meal on a charcoal grill
- Clean the cooking grates and get rid of the ashes generated the last time you used the unit.
- Figure out the amount of charcoal you actually need. If you are cooking burgers and steaks, one layer of charcoal should be sufficient. However, if you are cooking something like chicken or roast that usually takes a longer time to cook, then you will require two layers.
- Heat the charcoal up very well. There are many options such as organic fire starter, chimney starter, and electric charcoal barbecue starter.
- Ensure that the coals are maximally hot before you put your meal on the grill. While lump charcoals look like hard coals with a bit of smoke, briquettes will begin turning white and grey. The coals will evenly spread throughout the grill box when you use long-handled tongs.
- Oil the charcoal grill lightly with the aid of a brush and cooking oil.
- Set the temperature desired if you are using a grill that features temperature control. Otherwise, adjust the temperature of the cooking surface by opening and closing the air vents. And if your unit features a lid, open or close it to increase or dampen the fire.
- Close all the air vents as soon as you are done with the cooking and scrub the whole unit with the aid of a brush whilst they're still hot. Then, close the grill's lid and enable the coals to extinguish slowly.
- When utilizing wood chunks or charcoal briquettes, structure a pyramid and wet with lighter liquid, and don't light until you have ensured the liquid has soaked in.
- Don't ever add lighter liquid to already warm or hot coals.
- Don't ever use kerosene, gasoline, or other highly inflammable liquids as a starter as they are capable of exploding.
- Utilize an electric metal chimney or any other starter made specifically for lighting wood chunks or charcoal briquettes as an alternate option to lighter liquid.
Measuring 11.8 x 11.8 x 3 inches in dimensions and weighing less than three pounds, the BonNoces Portable Foldable Charcoal Grill is the most portable charcoal grill on this list. Due to its compactness, it is very suitable for camping trips and picnics, since you want something you can easily put away in the bottom of your camping bag.
Ordinarily, a 200-square inch cooking area (or 16-inch cooing grate diameter) should be sufficient for a family of four. If you, however, don't want to leave anything to chance, you might want to look at a model with a 300-square inch cooking area at least. We are definitely sure that such a model will offer adequate grilling space for the needs of four family members.
Our Verdict
Pinty is one of the fastest-growing companies in the grill industry and the Pinty Portable Folding Charcoal Grill is a substantial testament of the company's high ambitions. Despite being reasonably priced, this unit has everything you could want from a small grill. Apart from the high grilling performance it delivers, it is also very portable, thanks to the incorporated handle and foldable construction.
Our second-placed model is the Char-Griller E2828 Pro Deluxe Charcoal Grill, and featuring a total grilling area of 850 square inches, this selection is totally justified. While the large grilling space is enough to earn it a spot here, it's incredibility doesn't stop at that – the unit also features large wheels for easy transportation and a temperature gauge for ultimate control while cooking your favorite dishes.
Our third choice is also our Budget Pick, and that's a very rare occurrence. In truth, the Weber 10020 Smokey Joe Portable Grill totally merits its spot on this list. Besides its superb grilling performance, the ten-year warranty it comes with is absolutely impressive, and that alone might be enough to attract some buyers.

Complaints After the Divorce
Child Support, Custody, Visitation Are Most Common Violations of Divorce Orders
The most common violations of divorce orders usually involve child support, custody and visitation terms. But breaches of court rulings can include any aspect of a divorce agreement, from property division to spousal maintenance.
If your ex-spouse is delinquent with support payments or other mandated actions, in most jurisdictions your first step is to file a petition or motion to enforce the court's order. In addition to requesting that your ex comply with the order's terms, you can request that your former spouse also pay costs of filing the motion.
At a hearing on the motion, the judge evaluates the evidence and determines whether your ex-spouse has or has not been following the order. If the court finds the ex-spouse is in willful disobedience of a court order, that is, the individual has the ability or means to follow the order but refuses, the nonpayer could be found in contempt. In extreme cases, a contempt finding could result in jail time.
Then divorce court orders are violated, rather than placing the offending party behind bars, most courts take less drastic action. The primary goal, especially in support instances, is to get the offender to make the payments.
So as to effectively enforce divorce court orders, it is critical that each directive be clear, specific and unambiguous. That way all involved will know what is expected. When any of the expectations are not met, the order's directives can be cited.
In child support cases, the order should specify the amount of support, when the payments start, when they are to be made (regular date), the party to be paid, how payment is to be made. Also, if there is an ending date for the support payments, that should be clearly stated, too, e.g., the specific date or when a certain event, such as the child's attainment of a certain age or emancipation, is reached.
Contemplating Divorce?
With regard to visitation, the court order must clearly state both the starting and ending date of visitation period. The order also should note which parent is the custodial parent and that he or she ensure the child or children are available to the noncustodial parent at the beginning of the visitation period. Similarly, the order should make it clear that the noncustodial parent is to return the child or children at the end of the visitation period. To avoid misunderstandings, the order should, when possible, also specify the place and time of the visitation exchanges.
As for spousal support, the court order should clearly state the amount of alimony, as well as other obligations the parties are ordered to pay. As with child support, the court order should delineate the party to be paid, period of payment, and when such payments will end.
Thus it is an important criterion for the court order to be clear, specific, and unambiguous, so that the parties will know exactly which part of the order is violated, to file an enforcement complaint.
In the case of child support issues, neither party can take unilateral action. Most states treat visitation and child support as separate issues. Child support is viewed a right of the child and visitation is seen as a right of the parent. Even when the noncustodial parent fails to pay court-ordered child support, most states do not view that as grounds for the custodial parent to restrict the noncustodial parent's visitation rights. Conversely, if a noncustodial parent is denied access to his or her children by the custodial parent, that is no basis for the noncustodial parent to stop paying child support.
As for visitation matters, enactment of the Visitation Rights Enforcement Act of 1998, has helped ease enforcement issues that cross state lines. This federal law underscores that the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the U.S. Constitution requires each state to recognize other states' child visitation orders. The law applies to both temporary and permanent visitation orders, as well as the rights of both custodial and noncustodial parents. Violations of visitation orders are criminal offenses in some states and local law officers will assist in enforcing a visitation order.
Think about potential collection problems before your divorce decree is signed. If your ex-spouse was a poor money manager and had trouble paying bills while you were married, such post-divorce behavior shouldn't be a surprise. If eventual enforcement actions are required, expedite the process by being prepared. Have on hand the following information about your ex-spouse:
- Full name
- Social Security number
- Birth date
- Home and work addresses
- Home, work and cell phone numbers
- Vehicle information, including VIN, tags and title data
- A recent photograph of your ex-spouse also could be useful.
You also will need copies, preferably certified, of the divorce decree and support orders. Pulling together this information may take time, but a little extra preparation now will help prevent more serious problems later.

How to get a Visa.
Visas have a lot of information and stipulations. I'm hoping this guide will help you in your travels.
Most countries you will attend will have a requirement for a visa. Some have to be purchased ahead of time, some can be bought upon entry, and price can vary quite a bit.
The best site to find the specific requirements for each country (from the US) is the US Department of State or from the UK is the travel advice section for the UK Government. Type your intended travels into the search bar and select your country. This will bring up everything you may need including travel advisories.
Let's use Egypt as an example. For Egypt you will need to have at least 6 months validity left on your passport after your trip is to end, one blank passport page, and a visa. Egypt is one of the easier countries to obtain a visa because it can be purchased upon arrival in the airport.
China, however, is more difficult for a US citizen to gain a visa. Again, validity is 6 months but requires two blank passport pages. Each visa type has different instructions and can generally be found online. Depending on which visa you apply for you will have to send in your actual passport to a Visa Office of Chinese Embassy/ Consulate General based on your State of residence, proof of US residency, hotel bookings, flight information, etc.
All of this information can be found on China's embassy page, however, my traveling friends have told me the easiest way to go through China's process is to go to a Consulate or use a Visa service like Travisa or CIBT Visas.
Last piece of advice is to make sure you have plenty of time for these processes. Russia states it may take up to 20 business days for a visa application to be approved whereas some other countries don't list a specific time frame.
I wouldn't let visas deter you from traveling, instead, use it as a way to explore more about the country and their processes before arriving.

In millions of counting people reside in the United States and they trust a lot in United Parcel Services (UPS). As UPS are responsible in fact for each and every package they receive for the delivery so it's obvious that they will also take care of the stolen packages.
UPS helps to track your package when you inform them that it's more than 24 hours that you haven't received the package. You can also ask them for the claim for your package but first UPS track your package when they didn't able to find your package then they approved your claim application and send the claim in your account up to the original cost i.e. the cost of the package, not more that.

Operational Instruction
It is important for facilities to be properly trained and informed on new building systems turned over at the end of a construction projects. IBM has a complete and proper method for turning over completed projects.
Although many owners keep a permanent staff for the operation and maintenance of constructed facilities, others may prefer to contract such tasks to professional managers. Understandably, it is common to find in-house staff for operation and maintenance in specialized industrial plants and infrastructure facilities, and the use of outside managers under contracts for the operation and maintenance of rental properties such as apartments and office buildings.
However, there are exceptions to these common practices. Managers can provide a spectrum of operation and maintenance services for a specified time period in accordance to the terms of contractual agreements. Thus, the owners can be spared the provision of in-house expertise to operate and maintain the facilities.

Adonai IS the Creater!
We are always asking why… we aren't looking for Who… so we keep asking why. For those who desire to see the Word of God in nature… enjoy!
✡ May the Way, the Truth and the Life invade everything you see, and show Himself real, alive, active and full of Life for you! ✡
Darkness Highlights Hope
Hebrews 10:23
Let us continue holding fast to the hope we acknowledge, without wavering; for the One who made the Promise is trustworthy.
With each passing day, my heart cries out for Home. Whether it's because of my own hurts and sufferings or watching loved ones hurt and suffer. Watching the world in heavy labor. One would have to be lethargic to just be happily going about their life as if the air isn't fairly cracking with spiritual energy that snaps it's fingers by an ear and it rings for hours.
Passover…a very special festival. One that Yeshua (Jesus), Himself, became! The church sleeps in the Easter Bunnies nest, making merry and turning the knobs to appropriately sober for the death and resurrection of their Savior. Yet, Yeshua didn't say celebrate my death and resurrection. No, it was Passover He was observing, as commanded by God, when He said "Do this in remembrance of Me". Not Easter, not Resurrection day. Why do we change things?
I'm heavy with the disturbance it causes to ask such questions. So simple, yet uncomfortable. Why? The same Bible I read, is the same most my brethren read. Why is the fact that Yeshua is a Jew/Hebrew, who followed the Hebrew ways that God instructed from the beginning, why is this so full of controversy? I know more people willing to go blind over a neighbors skin color, sexual orientation….yada yada…but everyone must turn the Savior into their own personal preference for safety? I'm unsure what others call that, but in my book, if someone wants to paint me other than I am in order to "like" me, they really have no interest in me. From my 47 years of experience, 90% of those on earth feel the same way. So why do we make the Savior – God, different than He is and call it loving and serving Him?
Let's look at Passover, put in 'christianeese'. God commanded the festival to be observed in perpetuity. They were to bring in a young male Lamb, and kill it on the third day. Why command them to bring the Lamb inside before they killed it? It's important for the life you get out of a life to mean something to you. Ask any farmer and they'll tell you, they keep their distance from their "food animals". In other words, they don't get brought inside.
Then God commanded that they eat the entire lamb, nothing was to be "left over". An odd command? Not if you think like a Hebrew. To eat something completely is to accept the WHOLE offering. Leaving nothing out, it becomes a part of you, living on in you. You then take this offering/sacrifice with you always in your spirit. Humility. Thankfulness. It marks you on the inside. When you bond with a young lamb and then eat it entirely, it changes you.
Everyone focuses on the lambs blood on the door post. The outside. I can count on one hand and have fingers left over, how many times I've heard a sermon about the topic above, the inside stuff. As always, humans focus on the outside. Not to negate the importance of that blood, it's what the spirit of death looked for to 'pass over' the house – spare it.
Yet here we come to Yeshua, the Passover Lamb Himself. If our hearts and minds are not covered in His blood, the same thing happens to us. God makes physical everything He aims to hammer in spiritually. Which is why He commanded the perpetual observance of this festival. He knew we needed physical connections to Him. If you have never experienced a real Messianic Passover sedar you are missing out! It is so full of meaning upon meaning that the perpetual need to observe it is absolutely needed!
The darkness is closing in dear fellow-sheep. The hour draws near. The temptation is to thank God He's coming soon, or beg Him to so that our world can be made right. But it's HIS world, He's correcting, not ours. Every minute and hour, day and week, week and month, month and year was planned very careful by Adonai to bring Egypt about…the whole Israeli freedom movement…Moses story….
Meaning upon meaning was what He built the mechanism that drove the time wheels forward to that first Passover, the same to the one Yeshua became. The same to this one. Are you full on the riches of it all? You can be. We all can be…like Yeshua…having consumed every part of Him, leaving nothing out…full of His Likeness. Passed over by death again and again…
It's then that we understand this present darkness illuminates the Hope, it doesn't darken it.
Today is the first day of Passover. Follow Yeshua, Jesus…let Him show you from the beginning what it means. Why it is commanded of us to observe. It's not a jewish thing. It's a God thing. It's His thing. It's WHO He is!
✡ May the grace and peace of Yeshua the Messiah be with you…always…He comes soon!✡
The Fall into Self Absorption
In Hebrew, the phrase 'the eyes of both of them were opened' can be correctly interpreted in our English comprehension today as:
'Then they became aware of themselves.'
Before this pivotal moment awareness of one's self was non-existent. That is phenomenal! Notice closely how the second half of this verse confirms this.
'So they sewed fig leaves together to make themselves loincloths.'
First of all fig leaf was a ridiculous choice of covering. Neither hardy nor even comfy. Later in verse 21, God makes them fitting cloths to accommodate their new self aware self. Sturdy and comfortable. Yet it cost an innocent life. Self absorption always cost a life! Secondly, they had never before this moment even thought to 'make something for themselves'. It simply wasn't needed, desired, or known; this idea of making something for oneself or of one's self. They did die in that moment. Not from our human perspective after the fall. Death means one ceases to exist, physically present to touch and be. Yet to Adonai, the death was that now we had the capacity to live like we were the most important thing to consider. True life has no need to consider itself. This is why Yeshua was able to say so simply: "Do not consider/worry about what you will eat or what you will wear." Really what He was saying was 'don't think about yourself.' Self absorption kills life. Envy, jealousy, hatred, rage, greed; these things killed Yeshua, these things killed many and still do. These things are prime examples of how everything around one becomes all about them. Worry grows where contentment was planted. Considering oneself becomes the cancer, all of humanity was infected by it. There's no scripture that says, think about yourself, not one. In every scripture that refers to a personal inventory, it's God who is the one considering us, cleansing us, making us new. We are told to consider our actions, namely how they will – first of all reflect and effect Adonai, – secondly how they will effect others. How they effect us is determined by the result of Adonai and others coming before or after one own self. Most of us know it's usually ugly if it's after.
Let's fast forward to the next pivotal moment. Where Yeshua (Jesus) points out the key to following Him.
John 15:9-14
Just as My Father has loved Me, I too have loved you; so stay in My love. If you keep My commands, you will stay in My love – just as I have kept My Father's commands and stay in His love. I have said this so that My joy may be in you, and your joy be complete. This is My command: that you keep on loving each other just as I have loved you. No one has greater love than a person who lays down his life for his friends. You are My friends, if you do what I command you.
I say somewhat loosely that this is a pivotal moment. On one hand every Word that came from Yeshua's lips was pivotal. Yet here we see Him adress the first pivotal moment in the beginning where self absorption took hold. No, He doesn't mention Genesis 3. Not like we in our reference minded ways tend to do. From the Hebraic mind that moment was never needed to be recalled only on occasion. That moment was the focus of all misdeeds in the whole of history. It was never forgotten, always in the mind of those who sought after and followed the One True God. Yeshua spoke from history at every point in the present for the future. He covered every aspect of time in every Word He spoke. He is, was, and always will be infinite! Our minds do not naturally process this way. It requires the Holy Spirit to even begin to. Hence why so often Yeshua said, "He who has ears let him hear." In essence He was anointing each soul at the moment to be opened, much like the eyes were opened at the fruit-fall but in reverse. To become more aware of one's self will never be the goal of God's Kingdom. Let your communion with God be where you get your revelation time for your own self – from His eyes only, who we are, what needs changed – there is no condemnation but more importantly – there's no focus on one's self. Self help is evil as there is no such thing. We could no more help ourselves than we can dance and the rain pours. If man kind wants to be 'bettered', to improve upon what they are in and of themselves, it will take God alone to conceive a new perception in the heart and mind of us all. For only in Him can our love become true love, our kindness true kindness, selfless and unaccounting.
I've known only a few people whom I would consider having been given the gift of love. It's as natural as breathing for them to drop anything for someone without thinking of inconvenience or their own self. Without accounting what they do for who and especially with no expectation of any return. The majority of us, if honest, will admit that it takes work to weed those ugly things out with the help of the Spirit of God. Not that the joy Yeshua speaks of isn't an instant reward. Most people I know really feel joy at helping another, giving to someone. Yet we must remember what the thief comes to steal in God's Kingdom. Joy. How does he do it? By bringing back to mind awareness of self. Expectation creeps in, resentment erodes gratitude and begins to take account of time lost, energy expelled, feelings hurt, thank you's not expressed, love not returned. In other words the fig leaves of self absorption begin to find their ways into our hands and not even a second has elapsed before we find we sew to cover what our God created soul automatically knows is shameful.
Look at the difference between these two pictures.
They say a picture speaks a thousand words. In application to what we've covered so far, what do these pictures say to you? It's a lifestyle and total change in thinking in every way. The difference will astound you. One is community and selflessness. The other is convenience and self centered. One invest in the currency of the Kingdom of heaven, the other invest in the things that rust and moth destroy. One is the way of this world, my house, my life, my responsibilities, my needs, my timing, my opinion, my rights. One is the way of God in this world. Where we live, we have responsibilities, we have needs, we have time to give, energy to share. Where my heart is not settled until those around me are better fed than I.
What would the world be like, according to the Father and Yeshua's ways? The question has been asked, written about, talked about forever. Yet we can not read, study and listen our way into application. What can you do to enter in, now, where you are, today? This is always the purpose of the question. The purpose of such writings and talks. Action, trust in action, love in action, our walk with God evident by what becomes a natural flow from the Spirit from our union with Yeshua. His coming is imminent. Yet, the mission, the call, – has not changed. We wait, we look for Him. But we do so by looking at others. The church is failing in this. The average Believer is failing in this. So the world looks like a empty plot with cranes lifting heavy objects into place for one person at a time, for physical comfort and individual needs and wants. Completely clueless of the neighbor, unaware of the Father's heart breaking. The Father who made all things, for the purpose of love. Not self reliance.
I leave off with a small handful of the Word that shares this view. From the beginning of our Bible to the end, Adonai, over and over again, points to this fundamental element of His heart. It would be wise for anyone desiring to enter into that Heart to look every single one of them up and ask the Living Word to breath this life into their soul, to again go back to the garden – where self absorption was non-existent. Discovery of God and all He did, does and desires to do is the only thing that matters. May we all be shaped by the wind of His mouth in it! Again just like at the beginning – where He said: "Let there be Light!" And there was!
Galatians 6:2
Bear one another's burdens – in this way you will be fulfilling the Torah's true meaning, which the Messiah upholds.
Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing out of rivalry or vanity; but, in humility, regard each other as better than yourselves – look out for each other's interest not just your own.
1 John – the entire book.
Proverbs 21:21
He who pursues righteousness and kindness finds life, prosperity, and honor.
Proverbs 28:27
He who gives to the poor will lack nothing, but he who hides his eyes will get curses in plenty.
Proverbs 29:13
The poor and the oppressor have this in common: Adonai gives light to the eyes of both.
All of Matthew chapter 6.
All of Isaiah chapter 5.
Deuteronomy 10:12-21
So now, Israel, all that Adonai your God asks from you is to fear Adonai your God, follow His ways, love Him and serve Adonai your God with all your heart and all your being; to obey for your own good, the mitzvah (general principles for living) and regulations of Adonai which I am giving you today. See, the sky, the heaven beyond the sky, the earth and everything on it all belong to Adonai your God. Only Adonai took enough pleasure in your ancestors to love them and choose their descendants after them – yourselves – above all people's, as He does today. Therefore, circumcise the foreskin of your heart; and don't be stiff necked any longer! For Adonai your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, who has no favorites and accepts no bribes. He secures justice for the orphan and the widow; He loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing. Therefore, you are to love the foreigner, since you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. You are to fear Adonai your God, serve Him, cling to Him and swear by His Name. He is your praise and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things, which you have seen with your own eyes.
Deuteronomy 15:7-11
If someone among you is needy, one of your brothers, in any of your towns in your land which Adonai your God is giving you, you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from giving to your needy brother. No, you must open your hand to him and lend him enough to meet his need and enable him to obtain what he wants. Guard yourself against allowing your heart to entertain the mean-spirited thought that because the seventh year, the year of sh'mittah (release) is at hand, you would be stingy toward your needy brother and not give him anything; for then he may cry out to Adonai against you, and it will be your sin. Rather, you must give to him; and you are not to be grudging when you give to him. If you do this, Adonai your God will bless you in all your work, in everything you undertake – for there will always be poor people in the land. That is why I am giving you this order, ' You must open your hand to your poor and needy brother in your land.'
Micah 6:8
Human being, you have already been told what is good, what Adonai demands of you – no more than to act justly, love grace and walk in purity with your God.
I will forever be grateful the Lord led me to Mr. George McDonald's writings. The best thing I've ever read about 'Self' has been written by his hand. See link below.
✡ May the grace and peace of Yeshua the Messiah be found in us, dying to ourselves and living fully in Him with each passing day in 2018! ✡
Awake! Quote of the Day
Acts 17:11
Now the people here of nobler character than the ones in Thessalonica; eagerly welcomed the message, checking the Scriptures EVERY DAY to see if the things Paul was saying were true.
1 Peter 1:10-12
The prophets, who testified about this gift of deliverance that was meant for you, pondered and inquired diligently about it. They were trying to find out the time and circumstances to which the Spirit of the Messiah in them was referring in predicting the Messiah's sufferings and the glorious things to follow. It was revealed to them that their service when they spoke about these things was not for their own benefit, but for yours. And these same things now have been proclaimed to you by those who communicated the Good News to you through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) sent from Heaven. Even the angels long to look into these things!
2 Peter 1:19-21
Yes, we have the prophetic Word made very certain. You will do well to pay attention to it as to a light shining in a dark, murky place, until the Day dawns and the Morning Star rises in your hearts. First of all, understand this: no prophesy of Scripture is to be interpreted by an individual on his own; for never had a prophesy come as a result of human willing – on the contrary, people moved by the Ruach HaKodesh spoke a message from God.
James 1:18
Having made His decision, He gave birth to us through a Word that can be relied upon, in order that we should be a kind of firstfruits of all that He created.
2 Timothy 2:15
Do all you can to present yourself to God as someone worthy of His approval, as a worker with no need to be ashamed, because he deals straightforwardly with the Word of the Truth.
Isaiah 34:16
Consult the book of Adonai and read it: not one of these things will be missing, none will be lacking a mate. For by His own mouth He gave the order, and by His own Spirit He brought them together.
Psalms 119:97
How I love Your Torah (Instructions)! I meditate on it ALL day!
✡ Oh, God, may we seek You as diligently as we would seek shelter, peace, sustenance, and wages! For our lives depends on our willingness to find all truth in You alone! To search it our for ourselves, not relying on any human teaching and others seeking to make us transformed. For You alone in cooperation, that is relationship with us can bring us into Your Kingdom; where all things needful for every day we live will be found, as You promised. May You make us able to seek You more each day. Not for knowledge alone or self management, but for the joy of finding You! ✡
Awake! – Part 14 – The Powerful Exchange
Hebrews 12:1-4
So then, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses (all those mentioned in chapter 11), let us, too, put aside every impediment – that is, the sin which easily hampers our forward movement – and keep running with endurance in the contest set before us, looking away to the Initiator and Completer of that trusting, Yeshua – who, in exchange for the joy set before Him, endured execution on a stake as a criminal, scorning the shame, and has sat down at the Right Hand of the Throne of God. Yes, think about Him who endured such hostility against Himself from sinners, so that you won't grow tired or become despondent. You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in the contest against sin.
Do you think Yeshua (Jesus) knew what He was exchanging when He came here?
Philippians 2:6-11
Though He was in the form of God He did not regard equality with God something to be possessed by force. On the contrary, He emptied Himself, in that He took the form of a slave by becoming like human beings are. And when He appeared as a human being, He humbled Himself still more by becoming obedient even to death – death on a stake as a criminal! Therefore God raised Him to the Highest Place and gave Him the Name above every Name; that in honor of the Name given Yeshua (Salvation), every knee shall bow – in heaven, on earth and under the earth – every tongue will acknowledge that Yeshua the Messiah IS Adonai – to the glory of God the Father.
Indeed, He did! That last part, is what 'the joy set before Him' is referring to in Hebrews. The Powerful Exchange for the Creation and man – which is pretty darn glorious – but even that is NOTHING compared to the glory of God, Himself! Now notice what it said in Hebrews why we are to think of Him – 'so that you won't grow tired or despondent'.
To grow tired is well known to us. Fatique, the falling of eye lids, the state of being pulled into unconsciousness. Despondent, in Hebrew is: קצר – qotser – which means: faint, cut down, shortness of spirit, disheartened. Two very applicable words to the state of being 'asleep' we are attempting to fight! What we have in these verses is the 'smelling salt' we are to apply to our 'noses' regularly to stay awake.
Yeshua, gave up His 'life' in order to conquer death! The life He gave up was not the Life that is the Light of man, but the life of weakness held captive to sin. Often the life we mistakenly cling to. God is the ultimate in underhanding the enemy. The enemy thought he could kill Life, from the beginning he has thought this, and even now after Yeshua conquered death, he still seeks to convince us of the very lie he still believes! Sins greatest power is now transferred to Yeshua's very Name (character)!
2 Corinthians 12:7-9
Therefore, to keep me from becoming overly proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from the adversary to pound away at me, so that I wouldn't grow conceited. Three times I begged the Lord to take this thing away from me; but He told me, "My grace is enough for you, for My power is brought to perfection in weakness."
Zephaniah 3:15-17
Adonai has removed the judgements against you, He has expelled your enemy; the King of Israel, Adonai, is right there with you. You no longer need to fear that anything bad will happen. On that Day, it will be said to Jerusalem, "Do not fear, Zion! Don't let your hands droop down. Adonai your God is right there with you, as a Mighty Savior. He will rejoice over you and be glad, He will be silent in His love, He will shout over you with joy."
Colossians 1:11-13
We pray you will be continually strengthened with all the power that comes from His glorious Might; so that you will be able to persevere and be patient in any situation, joyfully giving thanks to the Father for having made you fit to share in the inheritance of His people in the Light. He rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of His dear Son.
Hebrews 11:32-38
What more should I say? There isn't time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Daniel, Samson, Jepthah, David, Samuel and the prophets; who, through trusting, conquered kingdoms, worked righteousness, received what was promised, shut the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, had their weaknesses turned to strength, grew mighty in battle and routed foreign armies. Women received back their dead resurrected; other people were stretched on the rack and beaten to death, refusing to be ransomed (deceived, swayed, bought by bribery or manipulation), so that they would gain a better resurrection. Others under went trials of being mocked and whipped, then chained and imprisoned. They were stoned, sawed in two, murdered by the sword; they went about clothed in sheep skins and goat skins, destitute, persecuted, mistreated, wandering about in deserts and mountains, living in caves and holes in the ground! The world was not worthy of them! All of these had their merit attested because of their trusting. Nevertheless, they did not see what had been promised (Yeshua), because God had planned something better that would involve us, so that only with us would they be brought to the goal.
Again in Psalms 119 we see King David as the example of all this.
Psalms 119:107-112
I am very much distressed; Adonai, give me life, in keeping with Your Word. Please accept my mouths voluntary offerings, Adonai, and teach me Your Rulings. I am continually taking my life in my hands, yet I haven't forgotten Your Torah. The wicked have set a trap for me, yet I haven't strayed from Your Precepts. I take Your instruction as a permanent Heritage, because it is the joy of my heart. I have RESOLVED to obey Your laws forever, at every step.
David never saw Yeshua in the flesh, but He knew Him! When Yeshua came, died, conquered, rose again, and anointed His church, sending them out…they brought the baton now being passed – onto you and me – the goal is now in sight! Let us not fall asleep! Every cloud in the sky is shouting for joy of Him whose feet will soon ride them to the finish line!
Hebrews 9:26-28
… But as it is, He has appeared once at the end of the ages in order to do away with sin through the sacrifice of Himself. Just as human beings have to die once, but after this comes judgement, so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to deliver those who are eagerly waiting for Him!
It's so important to understand our weakness in the Light of God's Word. For many many out there are speaking truth but they are human, have weaknesses and therefore the enemy wants us to ignore their witness to the Truth. To disqualify them because their flaws become apparent. Let's face it, we all have them. It's often taught that Paul's thorn in the flesh was some physical condition. It ignores the statement following which speaks of the adversary. This is huge fellow-sheep! I dare say that Paul suffered indeed in a physical way perhaps, but the manifestation of the flesh always comes from inside, where we think no one else can see, save God. A heart that cries out to God to remove all things that are sinful and ugly from within is wide awake, but falsely taught that it will then have no faults, weaknesses or constant struggle. This is a lie. There is no one on earth right now without some flaw in almost every arena conceivable! We are always wrong or in error or ignorant in some perception of God, of the world around us, of people we know, people we don't…God takes His time and has a perfect plan in His correction. This is why Yeshua made it clear that He is the Way, The Truth, and the Life! Truth is our waking salt! We must learn to disconnect the message from the messenger at times! The Truth still applies even in the imperfect and weak human beings that seek it and speak it! Does not the Truth continue to teach in times and language of culture? The Truth about our government will not be found in the language of detail of America today in our Bibles, but the principle of Truth found in it apply to all kingdoms that rise and fall. Truth takes us to Himself, always leads to Yeshua! Just as all falseness leads to the enemy! In truth, each path is quite short but often with a labyrinth of paths that attempt to distract. Wits are essential but coupled with humility. Questions are pivotal to answers. From here, I will begin to expose the labyrinth. Some people will bother you, look passed them. The information I've chosen to use is fact based and easily able to be found by anyone who wants to follow the facts themselves. I've labored and prayed over each video. I've done my own homework. Homework is to me, to look into the facts myself and then prayerfully place the Word of God over it to see if it lines up. I asked questions like: are these truths essential to one's walk with God? Will this completely change the choices one can make for Truth or for wickedness? Is this something You, God, think I should share?
Some videos will be long, all are worth every second you spend on them. Likewise, wisdom, would have you share them. If we love someone we give them Truth and trust His hands to hold them, lead them, guide them. No one is more trustworthy!
These are the cusp of every choice we make, every day. Sounds dramatic, truly I say, it's not drama – drama is make believe/not real/entertainment. The Word of God is foundational, real, and serious! Remember what David said in Psalms 119? 'I have resolved to obey Your laws forever – at every step!' Every step is every decision, every choice, every day – forever! Truth is paramount to choice! No Truth – and sleepiness will fall upon one in such a way that one will not realize they are the walking dead. Funny how this theme is so prevalent in all forms of entertainment these days, don't you think? Zombies, rabid infections, morphing humans into half animal creatures. We are not half anything dear brothers and sisters, we are fully human – beautiful in the eyes of God! His eyes are wide open though they may sting with the sight of us (truth) – shall we not trust Him to adjust our eyes to remain open though like so many before us, and Yeshua, Himself, we may weep uncontrollably at times because what we see is horrid, hard and seems hopeless. Is He not the One the Word speaks of? 'Adonai is right there with you, Mighty to save!' His hope will color the pictures we see!
James 5:19-20
My brothers, if one of you wanders from the Truth, and someone causes him to return, you should know that whoever turns a sinner from his wandering path will save him from death and cover many sins!
Those are words full of power! Full of wakefulness! Full of joy! The joy of heaven! May God grant us the strength in our weakness to face the Truth and brave to share it and enter in to the inheritance given us by Yeshua, Salvation for all who call upon His Name!
✡ Grace and peace be ours in full measure, with His Truth to set us on a firm foundation, opening the eyes to search for Him wherever He may be found, and ready to see Him coming again! Come soon, Yeshua our Salvation, come soon! Until then, keep us working in Your Kingdom to the glory of God our Father, Amen! ✡

I have two internet services. I have a Verizon DSL 1.5m/768k and a Time Warner Cable 30m/384k. My Time Warner is coming in through an Airport Extreme which is wired via ethernet directly to my Mac Pro. The DSL service is connected to a Linksys Wireless router. Is there a way to BOND these two connections so I can get an effective 31.5m/1m connection?
In other words, I want to connect my mac pro to Time Warner via Ethernet, and Verizon via Airport, and bridge/bond these two connections to achieve greater bandwidth.

Anderson Ireland Wins $1,500 PLO Bounty Event
Yet another tournament has ended at the 2018 World Series of Poker, with now just 10 of the scheduled 78 bracelet events remaining. The most recent tournament to end at WSOP 2018 was Event #67: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Bounty, where Anderson Ireland picked up his maiden WSOP bracelet.
Don't bother trying to do a background check on this player, because this isn't just his first WSOP bracelet or his first live poker title. In fact, this is his first live poker score, of any kind. The American grinded long hours (including a 4-hour heads-up battle) to beat a huge field of 833 entries.
The PLO Event had $141,161 kept aside for first place and Ireland will proudly take that home, along with his gold bracelet. He had a gruelling heads-up battle against countryman Matt O'Donnell. "That was very, very difficult. That was probably one of the more difficult poker sessions I've had. He was excellent," Ireland said about O'Donnell.
Talking about playing the game of PLO, he said, "I've been working on it for a little while. Been playing PLO for eight months now. I have some really excellent teachers who teach me the hard way, by taking my money. They'll know who they are. I felt very confident the whole way through. Seemed very natural. It is such a better game than Texas Hold'em."
Final table results:
- Anderson Ireland - $141,161
- Matt O'Donnell - $87,198
- Joon Park - $61,013
- Michal Maryška - $43,313
- Hai Chu - $31,203
- Andrew Holland - $22,816
- Jonathan Thomas - $16,937
- Harry Pozefsky - $12,767
