Tao Te Ching: Chapter 49
Updated October 9, 2018 | Infoplease Staff
Chapter 49
The sage has no invariable mind of his own; he makes the mind of the people his mind.
To those who are good (to me), I am good; and to those who are not good (to me), I am also good;--and thus (all) get to be good. To those who are sincere (with me), I am sincere; and to those who are not sincere (with me), I am also sincere;--and thus (all) get to be sincere.
The sage has in the world an appearance of indecision, and keeps his mind in a state of indifference to all. The people all keep their eyes and ears directed to him, and he deals with them all as his children.

I posted on the 7 covenants in Scripture where the Plan of Salvation is laid out. John Pryor asked me a very good question this morning. I posted on the 7 Covenants that lay out the Plan of Salvation:
- The Sabbath Covenant – between YHVH and creation
- The Edenic/Adamic Covenant – between YHVH and humanity, Adam the chosen signatory
- The Noahic Covenant – Renewed the Adamic Covenant, chose a specific family/bloodline; Noah the chosen signatory
- The Abrahamic Covenant – between YHVH and His chosen bloodline, Abraham the signatory to reveal the "Chosen One" to be from a specific bloodline to fulfill The Heavenly Scroll. To reveal The Law orally.
- The Mosaic Covenant – between YHVH and His chosen bloodline, Moses the chosen signatory ; to reveal the Priesthood, and the Law written in stone.
- The Davidic Covenant – between YHVH and His chosen royal bloodline, David the signatory. To reveal the throne Yahusha would inherit.
- The Yahushaic Covenant (the covenant in which Yahuah provides salvation. The New Covenant if you must) – between YHVH and His chosen REMNANT bloodline, Yahusha the signatory. To transpose all previous 6 into the Spiritual Kingdom of Yahuah. Yahuah's salvation revealed in the "covenant that bares his name".
"What about the Phinehas' covenant of peace in Numbers 25:11??? Is that not the 8th covenant?
Yahuah laid out for Yahusha, through literal bloodlines the roles he would play as mediator of The Yahushaic Covenant. Just like David was given the throne that would be Yahusha's eternally, Zadok the Priesthood that would be Yahusha's eternally… Phinehas was given the promise of the covenant of peace, that Yahusha would mediate … eternally.
The Covenant of Peace is another name for The Yahushaic Covenant (as is "New Covenant" and "Renewed Covenant" etc., but the REAL name in keeping with Scripture is that is is the covenant "in his name's sake" i.e. The Yahushaic Covenant).
Yahusha fulfilled that promise to El'azar through Phinehas; which was a promise made to the Zadok Line of High Priest. Yahusha was "the one this promise was given too". Giving Yahusha the authority to mediate a "Covenant of Peace" in his name… The Yahushaic Covenant; and to make atonement as High Priest!
6 "I am Yahuah, I have called you in righteousness (to walk The Way of the Nazarene, fulfilling The Law through Mikveh Matthew 3:15, being born again with fire John 3:3-8), I will also hold you by the hand and watch over you (to fulfill the Adoption Covenant Zachariah 3:7), And I will appoint you (Yahusha) as a covenant (of peace) to the people (The Yahushaic Covenant), As a light (life example John 13:15) to the nations (to walk The Way in his footsteps 1 Peter 2:21)
We see John the Great Prophet, foretell that the "mission" of the Messiah would be to bring "peace" in Luke 1:79.
79 to shine (be an example to) on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path (The Way) of peace."
Then we see Sha'ul, also teach this was Yahusha's role in the covenant that bears his name, to remove the "enmity" between the two houses of Israel and unite them in "peace"
Ephesians 2
14 For Yahusha is our peace, who hath made both (Jews and Gentiles) one, and hath broken down (the death decrees in The Law which were which were the) the middle wall of partition between us; 15 Having abolished (nailed the death decrees to the cross) in his flesh which were the cause of the enmity (our fear of the death) toward the law, commandments and ordinances;
Again, we see Sha'ul define The Yahushaic Covenant as a covenant of "peace"
20 and through (covenant with) Yahusha (The Yahushaic Covenant), Yahuah would reconcile to Himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his sacrifice (Yahuah would reconcile creation in covenant with Yahusha).
The defining difference in The Yahushaic Covenant is that we now have peace! Only in this final covenant, Has Yahuah poured out His Spirit, which brings us "comfort" i.e. the Comforter as the fear of death (decrees) has been covered, being nailed to the stake!
In The Yahushaic Covenant, The Law with active decrees known as The Law of Sin and Death (sin and you die) has been replaced now, with The Law of the Spirit of Life (The Law with the decrees against us, for disobedience, has been covered; the definition of Grace leading to Eternal Life for obedience to the INTENT of The Law); so now, The Law leads to life as we are restored to perfect obedience through faith in The Yahushaic Covenant and by following his example of being born again through Living Water and Spirit; disarming the powers and authorities that once held us captive to the fear of death!
We now have a spirit of comfort (the comforter) and are freed from our fear of death. The 'captives to the death decrees' have been set free.
I will give you a new heart (for my Law and write my Law on it) and put a new spirit (of loving obedience) in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone (legalistic observance of The Law without love and fear of death ) and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you (to comfort you) and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.
This is one of the primary responsibilities Yahusha has been given as he mediates the "covenant of peace" i.e. The Yahushaic Covenant, fulfilling all the promises to El'azar, to John, to Sha'ul, and to Isaiah as Yahusha would be called by many titles, one of which is The Prince (mediator) of (the covenant of) Peace:
6 "For to us a child is born (born means human birth, begotten means birth as a son of Yahuah "born again" by the Spirit), to us a son (of man) is given, and the government shall be on his shoulders and he will be called Wonderful Counselor, (the perfect image of) Mighty God, (fore) Father of Everlasting (life), and Prince of Peace."
For more information on this "covenant of peace" or the covenant that bears the name of the mediator… The Yahushaic Covenant, please read my 500 page book, where I break down this covenant, the relationship between Yahuah and Yahusha, overcome incarnation in context, and lay out our roles and responsibilities on the covenant we are now under:

"I was drunk and stole a case of beer from the liquor store. Then three cops came. I got one of them in a headlock. Then they tased me three times," the gentleman seated next to me said.
Thus began my return trip to Philadelphia from Fayetteville.
I worry a lot when I travel. Did I forget something? Will I make my connecting flight? Is the dog going to have any wild parties while I'm out? Etc. While I don't enjoy the surprises that always come up when I'm on the road, I've sure met some thought-provoking people. Last Friday, during my return trip from a week long training session in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, I met the most…well, I guess interesting would be the best word.
I boarded the plane and took my seat on the aisle next to a young man. From his boyish facial features and shaggy hair, I estimated his age somewhere around twenty-four. He looked like Keith Moon only with dark rimmed glasses. He reminded me even more of the late Who drummer with the first thing he said to me.
"Do they serve alcohol on this plane?" His voice sounded like Robert Mitchum's in the movie Cape Fear.
"They do," I replied. "But they charge you for the drinks."
"Aw, man. I need a drink. I'm leaving Arkansas to get away from some trouble I ran into. I got out of jail because I'm crazy."
Did I mention this was the first time I ever met this guy?
"No, you don't have anything to worry about," he reassured me. "I'm not dangerously crazy."
Suddenly, I needed a drink.
As he proceeded to relate the details of his run-in with Arkansas law enforcement, my mind drifted back to his "crazy" statement. While trying to wrap my mind around why he would think large quantities of alcohol would be good treatment for a chemical imbalance of the brain, a young man seated behind us joined in the conversation.
"I hear when they tase you, you shit your pants."
My interlocutor turned around, "Oh, yeah. I did."
All of a sudden, my alcohol related mishaps didn't seem as embarrassing to me.
He faced me and fidgeted. "Man, when are we going to get going?"
"I'm sure we'll be taking off soon," I assured him.
I introduced myself and he told me his name. For the sake of this piece, I'll refer to the young man as "Mitch". We talked about catching connecting flights and our final destinations. In order not to concern any Chambers of Commerce or Departments of Tourism, I won't disclose Mitch's.
After exchanging these pleasantries, I opened a book and tried to read. To my relief the plane taxied towards the runway.
"Aw, man. It's about time."
My fingers clenched the book as the crew delivered the safety instructions. For the first time while on a plane, I worried about my well-being. The cabin lights dimmed.
"Here we go!" Even with the seatbelt around his lap, Mitch bounced up and down.
The plane came to a stop. The captain then announced: "Our departure has been delayed for another eighteen minutes according to air traffic control. Here are your tax dollars at work, folks. Just sit tight. In thirteen minutes we'll be heading out to the runway."
"Aw, man." Mitch's lugubrious lament filled my ears.
Sweat escaped from my pores. Was it because this postponement only gave me fifteen minutes to catch my connecting flight in Charlotte? Or was it because I worried how Mitch would handle this? I don't think the later caused my anxiety. After all, this would defer the time until he'd have access to alcohol. He did say it took three cops and three tases, right?
The plane finally became airborne. Once the pilot turned off the "fasten your seatbelt" sign, Mitch asked me to move so he could use the rest room. He even apologized for inconveniencing me. I thought that a nice gesture, but an unnecessary one. With him away from his seat, I hoped the drink cart would pass by before he returned.
I had no such luck.
Mitch quickly got back. Once again, he said he was sorry for my having to move. The minor disruption didn't trouble me a bit. A far more menacing matter loomed: the drink cart ominously approached.
I took a deep breath as it parked next to my seat.
"Would you like something to drink?" The flight attendant's words entered my ears like daggers. My pulse accelerated.
"I'll have a soda." Mitch replied.
What? Did I hear that right? Did he order a soft drink?
The sound of a loud "click" confirmed. Mitch got a soda.
As I prepared for the dash to my connecting flight, I wished him the best of luck with his legal troubles.
"Oh, it'll be fine. I just need to pay a few things off and I'll be good."
Mitch's financial problems would explain why he didn't purchase an alcoholic beverage. Let's face it: for the money they charge to drink on an airplane, it would be cheaper to purchase a liquor store.
I did make it to my connecting flight. In fact, I had enough time to get something to drink. Due to my dehydration from sweating so much, I got a bottled water. After looking at what they charged me for it, I could've made a down payment on that liquor store. At any rate, it shows that there's no point in worrying about things. In retrospect, I don't think Mitch such a frightening guy. He was a good person who made some bad choices and then chose to keep making them.

With the election a few hours away, it's a case of being patient and controlling expectations. The polls suggest a close result, but as I've said before, I don't take much notice of them, since percentage vote nationwide may not correspond to the results of our first past the post system. I discussed this in detail in a previous post.
For me, the worst outcome would be the Conservatives being returned with enough seats to form a government outright. I'm very concerned about the possibility of a EU referendum (which they have promised), because the result could well be that we leave the EU. (There's a lot of misunderstanding about the benefits of our EU membership, but that's a discussion for another day). Another coalition with the LibDems would be a slightly less scary scenario, but it remains to be seen how many seats they get this time. Whether they would have enough political muscle to prevent an EU referendum probably depends on this.
I hope that Labour don't do as badly in Scotland as predicted (again, see a previous post). A sizeable number of SNP MPs in the Westminster parliament only hastens, in my opinion, the formation of a separate English parliament, and further devolution.
So, while there's still a chance of Labour getting enough seats to form a government, there's hope. But it's a tough call. More once we know the result.

According to the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board, more than 12% of reports of Recovery Act spending required corrections. The RAT Board also stated that of the 160,000 reports, there were about 19,000 that had mistakes.
These errors occur because the reporting process is rather complicated. It involved more than 90 different elements and many times the job totals are overstated. The most common mistake was the number of jobs that were created by the various stimulus projects.
Usually the recipients of stimulus dollars only have 20 days to correct any mistakes in the reports. However, now there is a new policy in place, which allows recipients to correct mistakes electronically at any time on FederalReporting.gov.
Recipients are making an overwhelming number of corrections to the reports. The Department of Transportation made the most number of changes. The Department of Health and Human Services, as well as the Housing and Urban Development departments had the next highest number of changes.
The state that received the highest amount of stimulus dollars also had the most changes to their reports: California. New York was the most accurate state. The data will be continually updated to the most accurate information every two weeks until March 17th, 2010.

Originally published by the London Solidarity group in 1975 as Pamphlet No.48

In a way, it is clearly artificial to try to isolate the role of women in any series of historical events. There are reasons, however, why the attempt should still be made from time to time; for one thing it can be assumed that when historians write about "people" or "workers" they mean women to anything like the same extent as men. It is only recently that the history of women has begun to be studied with the attention appropriate to women's significance - constituting as we do approximately half of society at all levels. (1)
In their magnum opus The Revolution and the Civil War in Spain (Faber & Faber, 1972), Pierre Broué and Emile Témime state that the participation of women in the Spanish Revolution of 1936 was massive and general, and take this as an index of how deep the revolution went. Unfortunately, details of this aspect are scarce in their book elsewhere, but the sources do allow some kind of picture to be pieced together. In the process of examining how women struggled, what they achieved, and how their consciousness developed in a period of intensified social change, we can expect to touch on most facets of what was going on. Any conclusions that emerge should have relevance for libertarians in general as well as for the present-day women's movement.
Conditions of life for Spanish women prior to 1936 were oppressive and repressive in the extreme. Work was hard, long and poorly paid (2), and when improvements did occur they were not always entirely beneficial to women. Figures from the Instituto de Reformas Sociales (quoted in S.G.Payne, The Spanish Revolution, Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1970), show that in the decade 1913-22, men's wages increased by 107.1% and women's by only 67.9%, while prices rose by 93%. When the 1931 Republic established the eight-hour day for agricultural labourers, this meant, according to a peasant in Seville Prison who talked to Arthur Koestler, that the men could go to meetings and gossip, while their wives could return home at 5 p.m., prepare the meal, and see to the children's clothes.
Minimal reforms including maternity compensation had, however, been introduced, and featured in the aims of most progressive groups. Politically, the Republican Constitution of 1931 brought-votes for both sexes at 23, a radical departure for the time and place. At first, it has been said (by Alvarez del Vayo in Freedom's Battle), a woman's vote merely doubled the power of her husband or confessor. But the situation was being modified. The Republic brought measures of education and secularisation, including provision for divorce if "just cause" were shown. Despite the weight of internalised inferiority under which they must have laboured, many women were starting to involve themselves actively in politics. (3)
On the libertarian side, the strong anarchist movement incorporated a certain awareness of the necessity to envisage changed relationships between people. For its adherents, the abolition of legal marriage at least was on the agenda. It is more difficult to assess to what extent their personal lives embodied a transformation in attitudes, but it seems that the particular problems of women were not a priority concern. (4)
In fact they were not much of a priority with anyone. Margarita Nelkin, a Socialist who was to become a deputy in the Cortes, wrote about The Social Condition of Women in Spain (Barcelona, 1922) and Women in the Cortes (Madrid, 1931); there was a movement for women's rights in the early twenties, but it had a reformist and careerist orientation, based on women in the professions. For anarchists, a reformist, minimal or transitional programme was more or less out. The focus was on thoroughgoing social revolution. Unfortunately, any theoretical discussion of what such a revolution might involve was often out too, in favour of an assumption that things would work out spontaneously in the best possible way.

Electronic Device Crossbody Bag
I have a new bag to show you today! This bag was made from a McCall's Pattern (M6477). I purchased this specific pattern because I have an interest in crossbody iPad bags. This pattern, in paticular, contains patterns for carrying cases for electronic devices in two sizes and e-reader covers in three sizes. For this project, I chose to go with the larger carrying case (9" x 11" x 1 1/2").

Is there a tradition or a story that has been handed down the generations in your family? It's not written down anywhere, just been told, from one person to another. There must be some truth in it somewhere but it's been added to and embellished, blurred and reimagined through time.
This telling and retelling is as old as language itself. Since Man began to form words, stories are told to the young as warnings, as lessons, as bedtime tales. Before we could write, things were passed on verbally, and still it happens today. Indigenous tribes across the world have historically passed their knowledge and experiences along the familial lines through verbal accounts and rememberings.

Proceeding to rebel against the kingly powers that be, she anoints herself leader of the Forsaken undead, living up to her mythical monikers "Dark Lady", "Queen of the Forsaken" and "Banshee Queen". An archetype of nebulous feminine power, Sylvanas is a crucial World of Warcraft persona.

A version of this article first appeared in PR Conversations, one of the public relations profession's premier collaborative blogs.
When it comes to reputation, there is little distinction between a real conflict and a perceived one
As media scandals go, it was a big one for Canada: The revelation that for the past two years one of the nation's better-known TV news anchors was a part owner of a small PR firm. Even more unnerving was that the anchor — and, on occasion, other journalists affiliated with the network — interviewed his agency's clients on show segments. Both his equity stake and regular participation in the agency, not to mention profile and participation of clients, were apparently concealed from both his employer and the viewing public.
For public relations practitioners committed to ethics and professionalism, the natural first instinct was self-righteous shock. Most codes of ethics are clear about why this is wrong. For example, the Canadian Public Relations Society's Code of Ethics states that a PR professional "shall deal fairly and honestly with the communications media and the public" and "neither propose nor act to improperly influence the communications media."
Yet while stakeholders from various disciplines quoted in the media were virtually unanimous in criticizing the anchor's dual role, there was little consensus on several questions—all of which have broad relevance. For example:
- What was the problem: A journalist having equity in a PR firm, the lack of transparent disclosure… or both?
- Can journalists work in PR and still be journalists?
- How can journalists and PR firms avoid such conflicts in future?
Transparency helps—but it's not enough
While it's not necessarily wrong for a journalist to invest in a private business, or even to earn money from other sources, it crosses an ethical line if such activities or relationships could influence his or her coverage.
In many sectors, there are rules about conflicts. Here is a personal example: I sit on a university board. If I have a potential conflict of interest on a matter before the board, I am required to declare the interest and recuse myself from voting on it, or trying to influence the decision. Some have argued that the Canadian journalist should simply have declared the investment to his employer, and also avoided putting himself in the position of hosting shows featuring the PR firm's clients.
It's true that transparency would have taken this from a black-and-white area to a grey one; however, even if shades of grey are inevitable, they are undesirable.
When it comes to reputation, there is little distinction between a real conflict and a perceived one. And in an age when we are inundated with information and distraction, civil society desperately needs journalism to be credible as it offers curation, analysis and insight. When trust in journalism is broken, everyone loses.
Can journalists work in PR?
The boundaries between journalism and public relations are increasingly porous. Media consolidation and threats to circulation and advertising revenue models are driving more journalists than ever into public relations and other communication positions.
Journalists often have steep learning curves in PR, as most have not had to develop their skills as business counsellors. Where they excel, however, is at storytelling —and this can offer tempting opportunities as the market for corporate or brand journalism grows, thanks to the explosion of organizations using "owned media" strategies.
The other challenge is that with global publishing power in everyone's hands, the barriers to entry in journalism are lower than ever. Another personal example: These days our firm communicates with leading bloggers almost as often as professional journalists.
When there is less clarity about who is a journalist, how can we hope to separate the spheres of PR and journalism?
While this area will become greyer and greyer, here is an axiom that may help: Transparency in self-identification is essential.
Someone who identifies her or himself only as a journalist, or as a full-time journalist, must not take on assignments that a reasonable person would see as the domain of public relations, such as corporate journalism, executive coaching or communication counsel.
Public self-identification as a journalist and consultant would logically allow a broader range of activity, provided there is disclosure of clients where necessary, and that the consultant/journalist avoids perceived conflicts in his or her journalistic work.
How can conflicts be avoided?
Public relations firms and journalistic organizations have to recognize the reputational risk that accompanies today's blurred boundaries, and act intelligently and ethically to prevent real or perceived conflicts.
After some high-profile Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) personalities accepted lucrative speaking engagements from corporations, their employer developed a policy circumscribing this type of activity. While this was wise, it's only a first step.
Here is a to-do list I recommend for various stakeholders:
- Media organizations must review their own codes of professional standards and ethics, and the individual contracts of their journalists, to identify and mitigate risks.
- Public relations firms and corporate PR departments must review and subscribe to codes of ethics, such as the universal Code of Ethics of the Global Alliance for Public Relations and Communication Management. Organizations must also provide clear policies and training for employees to help them know how to resolve potential conflicts promptly or, better yet, before they happen.
- Because public relations and communication management practice is hard to regulate (beyond the organizational level), there will always be ethical and unethical PR practitioners. For clients, the best advice is caveat emptor: Be careful to retain agencies that operate within established professional associations and codes of practice. Otherwise, the client's reputation is as threatened as that of the agency partner.
Blurred boundaries offer a new environment of risk — but they are part of our new realities in both public relations and journalism.
By navigating this new environment with both transparency and ethics, public relations and journalistic organizations can retain the trust that is essential to their reputations — and, even more important, to their "licence to operate" in the public's interest.

7 Students Die in Ill. Train-Bus Crash
Seven high school students were killed and two dozen were injured last week when a commuter train crashed into a school bus at a railroad crossing in Fox River Grove, Ill.
One student remained in critical condition late last week, local officials said.
The bus was carrying 36 students on their way to Cary-Grove High School in nearby Cary, Ill., about 40 miles northwest of Chicago.
It had stopped at about 7:10 a.m. on Oct. 25, waiting for a traffic signal on the two-lane road, according to local fire officials and a spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board.
The rear portion of the bus, however, had not cleared the train tracks, and the Chicago-bound train slammed into it at about 50 mph. No one on the train was injured, officials said.
The bus driver, a 54-year-old woman, was taken to a nearby hospital for evaluation. No other information about her condition was available.
The high school, located in Community High School District #155, remained open for classes last week. Crisis counselors were called in to comfort grieving students.

This week I was really busy at work so I asked my lover to have a look through the books to find something quick for dinner… And he chose these: quesadillas!
This recipe from Lorraine Pascale's Fast Fresh and Easy Food makes four quesadillas, which can be cut into 16 triangles to serve as finger food – ideal for a party! Like a Fiesta Friday kinda party!
To make four quesadillas you will need: 4 tablespoons roasted hazelnuts, fresh coriander, 4 tortillas (corn or wheat) 250g goats cheese and 4 teaspoons runny honey. It's a complicated recipe in that you need to put the oven on and use two frying pans to make sure everything cooks properly and stays warm. If you've got one of those hotplate things I'd imagine you could use that, and if you're cooking these as canapes I would skip the second pan and just make them one at a time. I had chips in the oven so I used two pans.
Turn the oven on to 100c (gas 1/4) and then put two medium frying pans on medium with a drizzle of sunflower oil in each pan. While these are heating up break the hazel nuts with a pestle and mortar, but don't grind them too small. Chop the coriander leaves (I used dried ones that were in the cupboard)
Lob a tortilla into each pan and toast them for a minute, then crumble some of the cheese (roughly 60g) onto each tortilla, then scatter some hazelnuts, coriander, and a tsp of honey over the cheese.
Now listen up, don't do what I did and spread it out all pretty like in the picture; pile it in the middle or it'll all fall out the sides after you've folded the tortilla over on itself – then press it down slightly. Reduce the heat down low, cook for a minute and then flip them over to cook for another 5 minutes.
So if you're making 4 at once this is where you want to slide them onto an oven tray and put them in the oven to keep them warm while you turn the pans back to medium and make the second pair of quesadillas. I just scraped mine off the pans and cut them in to 4 and served them up with oven chips and rocket for our tea.
I think that these were slightly stickier than they should have been after all the filling poured out, and I should have bought some new nuts rather than the ones from the back of the cupboard; but I'd definitely give these another try – and maybe even serve them as canapes.!

Hi all,
I'm planning out a build, and expect to take Epic Weapon Specialization on level 28 or 30, which will be a Divine Champion level. Can anyone advise if I will be able to select Dwarven Waraxe? I seem to recall that this was a bug, most weapons were available to a Divine Champion and this one wasn't.
Have I made this up? Or has it been fixed? I can probably work around the issue, but would rather plan for it from level 1, rather than have to RCR from level 30...!
Many thanks
Edit: Realised there is a Character Building section that I should have posted this in, if anyone is able to move it there please feel free.

Mumbai: Former Australian seamer Glenn McGrath on Tuesday heaped praise on Umesh Yadav, saying the Indian pace spearhead understands well how to manage the workload of international cricket.
"Umesh Yadav is bowling really well at the moment, he is up match after match, he is little bit older then what was a couple of years ago, he is also lot more experienced and he knows, (or) he should know, how to prepare himself, how to recover," McGrath told reporters in Mumbai.
"I always say being fit is not so much, how long you can bowl, it is about how quickly you recover and as we get older we get to know ourselves better. And I think that has helped Umesh and he is bowling well, with confidence," he added.
McGrath, however, stressed on the importance of taking a break for fast bowlers.
"A fast bowler needs an off season. If you keep bowling whole year without an off season, sooner or later injuries are going to creep in, you got to have a break to put that strength and fitness back in," he said.
"Indian bowlers are going well and (Umesh) he knows how to recover and when you know that you got less chances of injuries," added the veteran pacer, who has grabbed 563 Test wickets in his career.
The former Australian speedster is in Mumbai as part of MRF Pace Foundation to conduct a two-day Coaching Programme for Mumbai Cricket Association for their Ranji Under 23 and Under 19 category of fast bowlers.
Asked about injuries that plague pacers, McGrath said: "That's the thing even in Australia and all over the world, fast bowlers get injured, it is such a tough part of the sport.
"It's an unnatural thing they say to run it and bowl fast, and put that stress on the body. They also say as we mature and get older our body sort of finishes growing and we have less injuries," he said.
The 47-year-old feels it is very rare to find someone who can bowl really fast and said he is always looking for such talents.
"Everyone wants to bowl fast, I wanted to bowl fast, but no one is express. To be express is a unique thing. It's not that many bowlers can be 140-150 kmph quicker. It is something very unique. It is a raw talent, you can't teach that," he said.
"Express bowlers are very rare and I'm always on the look-out for one. India is probably the toughest place in the world to be a fast bowler, but that plays a part. But as I said (bowling) 150 plus (kmph) is rare," said McGrath, one of the greatest in the game.

The kickoff to Camacho's grand relaunch came to its Dallas finale on June 20 as the company hosted its largest Dallas party to date to celebrate its relaunch. Most of the 400 guests—largely from the Dallas area—have become quite familiar with Camacho's new portfolio, as the brand has been doing events for the better part of the last 50 days in North Texas. In some ways, it was as much a going away party for the numerous Camacho employees who have virtually lived in Texas, as it was about introducing something new.
It was also one more time for the Davidoff-owned company to announce itself and explain how it plans on functioning in the future. Present were its three celebrity ambassadors: Matt Booth of Room101, Mike Ditka, the football coaching legend, and Rob Weiss, a producer and writer who lists Entourage and How to Make it in America to his credits.
All three are not just part of their own cigar brands—Booth and Ditka already have them; Weiss's line will debut likely in early 2014 with a current working name of Standard Issue—but also serve as the faces of Camacho's new "Bold Standard" moniker.
While Camacho has rebranded every previously existing line, reblended all but Connecticut and Triple Maduro, discontinued a portion of the portfolio and largely lowered price points, the brand is not done.
For fans of the Liberty, it will return, this year shipping in September. The company hasn't announced specifics, but it isn't advertising as its release for the IPCPR trade show and convention, which takes place next month.
However, the company will not come to the show empty-handed. A limited edition in the form of a cigar called Blackout will debut in Las Vegas, Nev. It uses a Honduran wrapper from 2006, a Nicaraguan binder aged four years and fillers from three different regions and years: Honduras, Nicaragua and Brazil and 2003, 2008 and 2009.
Camacho used a method known as "press-fermentation" by adding weight to the top of the pilones, where the tobacco sits to process, in order to create more heat. After the intensive process, the tobacco rested longer to recover before being aged. In addition, the company used leaves from the top two-thirds of the plants in order to get leaves with more oils.
The rolled cigars have been aging for two years and will be released in a total of five vitolas: Robusto (5 x 50), Toro (6 x 50), Churchill (7 x 48), Figurado (6 1/8 x 54/42) and Gordo (6 x 60). The company plans to only make 5,000 boxes of 20 cigars, limiting the total production run to 100,000. The company describes it as a four out of five on its internal intensity ratings.
Pricing is expected to be between $11.00-$13.00 and the company will have a live scorpion, the new logo for the brand, on display. Earlier this year the company acquired a few scorpions, due to the predatory nature of the animal, only one remains.
All three brand ambassadors will be at the show. Neither Ditka, nor Weiss will announce any new products, however Matt Booth's Room101 will show off its Master Collection, described as the company's most premium release to date. The release will also help to cement Room101's minor rebranding as the company changes logos.
The mid-July trade show will also be the first time for most retailers to order the new Camacho products.
Behind-the-scenes, Camacho has gone through a series of changes both in the U.S. and Honduras. Courtney Aiken has been appointed brand manager of Camacho, Room101, The Griffin's and Cusano. Dylan Austin remains head of marketing for the brand, but the company reportedly has made numerous personnel changes at AgroIndustrias Laepe, SA factory, the new name for the company's Honduran operations.
Update: An earlier version of this story referred to the Honduras factory as Tabacos Rancho Jamastran.

The Chemist
by Alan J. Field
Kindle Edition, 340 pg.
ThrillRide Media, 2016
Read: November 8 – 10, 2016
I don't want to spend a lot of time talking about this — mostly because I just don't care, but also because this is going to fall into the "if you can't say something nice" category — but I told the author I'd say something, so here goes.
This is a dull, poorly written, cliché-filled, convoluted thriller that forgot the thrills. You have a mustache-twirling terrorist (atheistic, but willing to pretend to get what he wants); a couple of mustache-twirling CIA honchos (willing to sell out the Bill of Rights, CIA charter, and anything else to get the "bad guys"); a cosmetics executive that decides to try to sell chemical weapons; a drug-addicted chemist able to be a genius and do something no one's done before while hallucinating; a CIA op-turned addictions counselor/vigilante; and a few other assorted mustache-twirlers, criminals with hearts of gold, and assorted special-ops types.
Danny Strong (yes, a bit of Buffy-fan pandering), is called out of retirement to help save the world — because he's the only one who can. He needs to convince a hot young chemist to give him the most deadly toxin ever created to him before it's sold on the black market in an effort to save her mother's cosmetics company. Oh, and the chemist does enough coke and heroin to kill a middle school's worth of kids — yet she does something no one else can duplicate. There are multiple conspiracies afoot here — some never explained well — but that's the core story. Naturally, he falls for her (in something like 10 days) and is able to finally free himself from grieving over his murdered wife.
There's a misguided, but probably well-intentioned, Castle tribute here that just annoyed the tar out of me (and I've watched every episode at least once, so I'm not complaining about a Castle tribute — I just hope Fillion, Katic, etc. don't read this novel).
There are so many storylines and details that go nowhere and mean nothing, so many plot points that just don't work, inconsistent narration, scenes that are impossible to follow (and not just because the book desperately needs a couple of copy edits, see below) that transform this book from a bore to a bad novel.
Now, I know when you self-publish a book, there's going to be more typos and whatnot in it than your typical book (or, at least, there are bound to be) — but even stuff put out by the Big 5 contains errors that cause copy editors to lose sleep, so I generally don't hold that against a book. But this was just ridden with spelling and grammatical mistakes — any drinking game invented along the lines of tracking them would leave me unable to write for a week. Repeated sentences/paragraphs, many homonyms (e.g., "hear" instead of "here"), wrong pronouns, sentences that aren't really anything, simple misspellings, and more. Too often I'd have to stop what I was reading and spend time examining a paragraph/section for a while to see if I could suss out the meaning. Now, I have no problem doing that when something is beautiful or thought-provoking — but when it's not worth it? No.
I didn't actively hate this book — but man, there's just nothing to say to recommend it.
Disclaimer: This book was provided to me by the author in exchange for my honest opinion — he clearly didn't bribe me. I thank him for the opportunity,

The president of Chad warned nine French citizens who had been arrested for trying to fly 103 children from Darfur to France, saying they faced punishment for their "horrible act."
PARIS, Oct. 26 — The president of Chad had a warning Friday for nine French citizens associated with a charity who had been arrested for trying to fly 103 children from Darfur to France, saying they faced punishment for their "horrible act."
The Chadian police arrested the French citizens on Thursday, but a leader of the charity said that relocating the children was a humanitarian effort undertaken to "save them from death."
The Chadian president, Idriss Déby, told reporters: "It is a horrible act which I say is a crime. I strongly condemn it." He spoke during a visit to a social center in Abéché, Chad, where the children are being cared for, Reuters reported.
Seven Spaniards, crew members of the plane chartered by the organization, were also detained by the Chadian government.
The charity, l'Arche de Zoé, or Zoé's Ark, a three-year-old French nonprofit organization that aims to help orphans, said it had taken the children from Sudan to neighboring Chad and was planning to fly them to France, where it had lined up host families that had paid nearly $3,500 per child.
The group said the children, age 1 to 9, were orphans from the western Darfur region in Sudan. It said the operation had the support of President Nicolas Sarkozy and his former wife, a claim Mr. Sarkozy's office denied.
"I formally reject the information according to which the organization Zoé's Ark claims the support of the Élysée and Cécilia Sarkozy," said David Martinon, the president's spokesman. "It's totally false."
Rama Yade, France's junior minister for human rights, condemned the operation as "illegal and irresponsible."
The French Foreign Ministry said a Paris court had opened a criminal investigation into the matter, Reuters reported.
Ms. Yade was contacted by the charity three months ago, seeking support for its "Children Rescue" program, Mr. Sarkozy's spokesman said. But after several aid agencies in Darfur advised against responding to the appeal to take in Darfur orphans, the Human Rights Ministry urged French families not to participate. Adoption is illegal in Sudan and Chad.
Stéphanie Lefebvre, secretary general of the charity, said the families, who had been waiting for the children at an airport about 100 miles east of Paris, had not planned to adopt the children. The group's Web site said the families would take them in for at least five years. Ms. Lefebvre did not specify what, if any, legal arrangement had been made.
She told the newspaper Le Parisien that the families' payments were to cover the operation's costs. "We just wanted to save them from death," she said.
The children are in temporary care arranged by the Chadian government and international aid organizations, a French diplomat said.

Cooling towels – can they beat heat illness?
You've seen them on your favorite professional tennis players, golfers and even on the shelves of Costco. With the heat rising and the risk of heat illness looming, risk managers are looking for ways to keep their fellow employees cool. Hence the introduction of the cooling towel. While it is not a new concept (I was personally using these 15 years ago in Omaha, Nebraska), these new towels are being gobbled up by consumers. So, the question is – do they really work and are they safe?
Evaporative body cooling
Before we discuss body cooling, let's go back to 4th grade science class for a minute. When it comes to temperatures, two competing temperatures when mixed together will equalize themselves, becoming a single temperature. This works well when using two exact volumes of water (8oz for example) but when one volume out numbers the other, the temp will generally remain on that side of the scale. This is why heat illness and hypothermia occurs – your body cannot compete with the volume of air/water temperature around it. This also explains why wetsuits work so well. And why under less extreme circumstances, these towels provide relief.
The process that these new towels utilize is evaporative body cooling (EBC2). EBC2 is not a new concept. Your body uses EBC2 to cool itself and humans have since the dawn of time. Actually, the body uses two processes to remove excess heat (stabilize the body's temperature). The first is convective body cooling. This is simply where the body moves heat to the surface of the skin and because the ambient temperature is much lower than the body's the heat equalizes with the air temp and creates a cooling sensation to the body. This process can be experienced by sitting on cold concrete. Your bottom will not sweat, but it will get cold.
EBC2 on the other hand is the natural process of body sweat. When the air temp is too hot, the body cannot feel cool because the convective process equalizes at a temp too high for the body – above 98.6. So the body pushes sweat to the surface of the skin and the sweat/water uses the body's heat to turn (basically boil) the sweat into steam/vapor and move it off the skin. This accelerates the cooling effect on the body because it is using more of the body's heat thereby cooling it down.
EBC2 works well when the vapor has somewhere to go. When humidity rises (typically not a problem in Southern California) the air is already holding a lot of water making it hard to hold more. This again is another science experiment – saturation. Your body will not be able to release the moisture making it more difficult to cool down.
Same as other towels
People have been pouring water over their heads for decades, wrapping towels (Consumer Reports article) around their necks for centuries and in extreme survival cases even urinating on any piece of cloth (watch Dual Survivor) to create this EBC2 process. Hey it's better than dying in the desert. The point is that the you don't need a special towel to create the EBC2 process; however, these new towels do somethings much better than other fabrics. And that my friend is why they are such a hot product.
Technology is constantly advancing and it doesn't stop with computers. Fabrics have progressed tremendously – wrinkle free, odor protection (adding silver), moisture wicking, uv protection and much more. The same holds true for these new cooling towels. The fabric is lighter, holds water better, releases water in a more controlled fashion and much more. Sure you can use your kitchen towel, but only if you like to get wet and don't mind lugging around a few extra pounds. Or if you like, you can even make your own.
The comparison
Enough talk, let's take a look at the numbers. I took two identical cooling towels, left one dry (left) and followed the directions on the other one (right). I also threw in a kitchen towel just to see the difference. So, do the special towels do something special?
The tile surface measured 76.1
The water measured 74.8
The dry blue towel (left) measured 75.2
The kitchen towel measured 74.4
And the wet blue towel (right) measured 71.9
That's a 3.3 degree drop in temperature. Something in the towel is interacting with the water to cool it down further. And those 3.3 degrees can make the difference between life and death. Just remember that using colder water (ice water) can drop the temperature even further.
Why the neck
The body contains several Pulse Points – areas where large volumes of blood circulate through your body. Cooling the body's life syrup also helps cool the organs it supplies and the rest of your body. The neck contains a large pulse point and is easily accessible.
Safety concerns
As a risk manager, there are two primary concerns that I have with the towels.
Number 1 – the towels are loose and can easily be caught in moving equipment. Unlike golfers and tennis players, our employees are working around heavy and dangerous equipment. Loose dangling clothing, jewelry and towels can easily create an additional safety hazard.
Number 2 – using the towel as a crutch. Just because you have the cooling towel doesn't mean that you can forgo proper hydration. The towel is an ancillary device and should be utilized in conjunction with proper hydration and food consumption.

Here's a great, easy idea for Valentine's Day – heart shaped cupcakes. It's all over the interwebs at the minute…I may have to whip up a batch of these shortly [the Connexion girls are coming round this evening, and cakes are de rigeur at our meetings!]
You just take an ordinary cake tin, and put your paper liners in, then drop a glass marble down the side of each case.
Then when you bake the cakes, they will come out heart shaped. Decorate them as you please.
So simple – and no need to go and spend money on a set of heart shaped tins. Love it!!
PS I suspect the marbles will get VERY HOT so do be sure to let everything cool down well before you try to remove them. If you are short of cooling racks, use this tip from Real Simple magazine

I linked to a video by Senegalese musician Abou Diouba Deh in my last post about Fatou Laobé without realizing that I've had one of his cassettes for some time, and an excellent one it is.
Like Laobé and the well-known Baaba Maal, Abou Diouba Deh is a member of the Fulani ethnic group. The Fulani, traditionally nomadic, have played an outsize role in West African history. From their homeland in the Fouta Tooro region of northern Senegal and southern Mauretania they have spread as far as the Central African Republic and Sudan. The most prominent Fulani in modern history was Usman Dan Fodio, a religious mystic and political reformer who founded the powerful Sokoto Caliphate in the early 19th Century in what is now Northern Nigeria. Numerous other West African leaders are of Fulani descent.
I've been unable to find out much about Abou Diouba Deh, but his cassette Yoo Bele Ndenndu (Tiïtounde) (Talla Diagne), which I post here, is a great example of the popular "neo-traditional" current in Senegalese music, traditional xalaam and percussion brilliantly complemented by the (uncredited) electric guitar. Enjoy!
Abou Diouba Deh - Gidam
Abou Diouba Deh - Ganndo Mayo
Abou Diouba Deh - Uururbe Daakaa
Abou Diouba Deh - Jaaraama Laaba Juude
Abou Diouba Deh - Beeli Seeno
Abou Diouba Deh - Jasar Wuddu Mbodo
Abou Diouba Deh - Taan Seex Aljumaa Bah
Abou Diouba Deh - Teddungal
Here's that YouTube Video. The cars racing by in the background detract a bit from the folkloric mood, I think:

Beautiful! I love it! He doesn't have quite the nasal timbre in his voice that I'm used to hearing from Fulani music. Please let us know if you find out where we can purchase his music. Thank you.

What an amazing band. The way "Gidam" builds so slowly and just never stops getting fuller and funkier! The first time the whole band comes in, on those accents, is simply awesome. I foresee losing many hours perusing your archive. Thanks so much for sharing this stuff!

Now seeing a video of Abu I remembered, I've never grateful you this wonderful album, also wanted to say that the unmistakable guitar cannot be other than the of Jimi Mbaye (Purlo).
@Tam tell you that the Yewndé album of Abou Diouba Deh is available in Starzik.

80's rag top
Wednesday, November 16, 2011
I was given the top from an op shop, they were going to chuck it in the bin because no one would want to buy it. The sleeves had been cut off, in a bad way. Bit of a disaster really wasn't it...
I couldn't do it, I couldn't cut it into pieces. I made it fit by turning inside out and used one of my existing t-shirts as a guide to cut to size. I fixed up both frayed open hemmed arm holes, and made a ruffle flower out of the cut off remnants.
Turned out alright didn't it?

If you happen to be hunting to talk to the USA Nowadays photo booth out at the Olympic Media Summit at the Hilton Anatole, going on today and tomorrow, they will not be there. News organizations would almost certainly rather employ specialized specialists who create highly valued content for a paying audience or distribute present affairs news to a mass audience so advertisers can choose up the bill, than produce low-top quality, poorly developed content from digital sweat shops or news gathered by machines crawling the World Wide Net.
Extended story quick, one of my employees was cheated by the management and been accused for some thing he did not do. I stood for him and confronted with my boss but surprisingly, my boss took the management side and even asked me to just close my eyes and asked me to let him go. I decided to leave my job of ten years the subsequent day and now am carrying out enterprise on my personal.
I was pondering in starting a organization (this will be my first time), a Mexican restaurant I am at the moment living in the US, but I believe Thailand will be an superb spot for starting it. The major difficulty I located is to discover a regional partner (Thai) in order to start it. On the other hand, one particular of my relatives is a chef and she operates in NY, I was thinking to commence it with her assist.
From a contemporary point of view it is difficult not to see every little thing from digital video to activist cybercultural projects such as Indymedia to digital networks in common to the numerous types of social software program as some kind of technological realisation of this contact for a post-media era, that appears to have become at when significantly less not possible and less utopian.
This is extremely interesting stuff… I guess we are all so busy focusing on expanding and carrying out our company, we at times overlook the ending, and what can result in the ending of our company…. Though if you are a student of the law of attraction, then if you do go out of enterprise, some part of you was focusing on that, or it is part of a higher plan to truly give you one thing amazing.

waiting on wednesday: wink poppy midnight
Wink Poppy Midnight by April Genevieve Tucholke
release date: March 22
synopsis: Every story needs a hero.
Every story needs a villain.
Every story needs a secret.
Wink is the odd, mysterious neighbor girl, wild red hair and freckles. Poppy is the blond bully and the beautiful, manipulative high school queen bee. Midnight is the sweet, uncertain boy caught between them. Wink. Poppy. Midnight. Two girls. One boy. Three voices that burst onto the page in short, sharp, bewitching chapters, and spiral swiftly and inexorably toward something terrible or tricky or tremendous.
What really happened?
Someone knows.
Someone is lying.
This sounds really twisty and interesting. I love the tag on the cover: "A hero. A villain. A Liar. Who's who?" I think that's totally brilliant and mysterious. Plus, just the cover in general is one of the most beautiful things that I've ever seen. I really cannot wait to see what this dark, shrouded book holds.
what are you waiting on this week?
