Sometimes we may think we don't deserve to be healed. Maybe we've made what seems like an awful mistake. Or repeated failure, hardship, or hatred has been beating us down to believing that we aren't good enough to be healed. Some people are afraid of being jinxed--or of being a jinx. Or maybe the problem has come back so many times, we're ready to give up. If our heart and mind are discouraged, expectancy of good may be the furthest thing from our thought.
But we don't have to give in to discouragement. Each of us does deserve to be healed, no matter what! Accepting and understanding our individual worth and value don't start with a mortal definition of identity. Worth is not defined or limited by income, nationality, sex, or age. Our individual worth and value derive from our relation to God. Our identity is defined by God, good. As Paul describes man's relation to God, in the book of Acts: ``We are the offspring of God'' (17:29). So we are worthy of God's care because we are the beloved children of God. ``Our Father'' as Christ Jesus refers to God in the Lord's Prayer, is the Father of believers and nonbelievers--of all of us. God doesn't love some of His children and hate others. And God doesn't provide good for some children and neglect others. This is important to remember especially in the face of what seems to be evidence of the tragedy touching some lives, because understanding this helps us break through tragedy to healing.
Here's an example. I had been talking with a relative who had been unemployed for a long time. She was behind on her rent and was terribly discouraged. She sounded as though she didn't expect ever again to experience a normal life, filled with abundant good and satisfying activity. Losing her home seemed to be a question of when, not if.
I had been reading the Bible and praying. I was struck by the importance of claiming our actual relation to God as His creation, spiritual man. Our value, worth, and our deserving of good belong to us because we are His children. We do have a right to be healed.
Understanding, and claiming our relation to God and our worth as His spiritual children bring about a normal adjustment of a situation to harmony. After that conversation, whenever this relative came to mind, I thought of her as God's beloved child, not a hopeless mortal; as worthy of healing, not mired in poverty or hopelessness. During a later conversation, I encouraged her to accept the reality of her spiritual identity and to acknowledge that she was worthy of good and normalcy in her daily life. My relative kept praying and looking for work. Within a short while she had found part-time employment. A few months later she had a full-time job in a company where she is both happy and appreciated. Her home, too, is more beautiful and secure than it had been before.
Mary Baker Eddy, the author of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, knew well how mankind longs for healing of poverty, hopelessness, grief, illness. ``Prayer'' is the title of the first chapter of Science and Health. In this chapter she asks a question many have grappled with: ``Does Deity interpose in behalf of one worshipper, and not help another who offers the same measure of prayer?'' (p. 12)
The answer to this question is the one Christ Jesus showed so many times during his healing ministry. He healed men, women, and children. He healed people of different nationalities and social situations. Just so today, we each have the right to ask for--and receive--healing, because we are God's children. We have the right to ask for the inheritance of good God has for each and every one of His children. As Mrs. Eddy assures us in that same chapter of Science and Health, ``In divine Science, where prayers are mental, all may avail themselves of God as `a very present help in trouble.' Love is impartial and universal in its adaptation and bestowals'' (pp. 12-13). Each of us is worthy of, and can feel, the tender, healing touch of God, divine Love.

There are several reasons that you can buy filet mignon at your grocery store or butcher for anywhere from $10.99-$25.00 per pound. Forget the fact that Authentic Japanese Wagyu Filets will set you back $214.50 per pound, and that's at Costco! One reason is the cost they paid and profit margin they add, the other is the grade of the beef. Good, Better and Best cuts of meat, each have a different price when you go shopping.
The same can be said for the impression materials, composites, and other dental supplies you use every day. There are quality differences that sometime create huge variances in performance. The raw materials used for ceramic or metal frames, copings and finished restorations made for you at Modern and MicroDental Laboratories have the same scope of quality available.
If you start with a USDA Select or Choice Steak and try to serve it at Morton's for $45, your customers will not come back. The quality will not match the price. Conversely, if you start with USDA Prime, dry aged and sell it for $19, you will go broke.
The good news is the difference between Good, Better and Best Zirconia is not 2-3X. For the small incremental cost of using the best Zirconia available like the Ivoclar materials that Modern and MicroDental use, you get a better, more esthetic and predictable restorative solution. Cheaper Zirconia will not look or perform as well. There is a difference in the final product when you start with a lower quality raw material. The purity, how the pucks are pressed, and the performance characteristics can produce a wide variance that will compromise your patient care. The race to the bottom for the cheapest monolithic Zirconia Crown carries a huge price tag. Just like cheaper cuts of meat that will be tough to chew, the customer/patient will be disappointed.
We are proud to use the best materials available.
The new Ivoclar eMax ZirCad raises the bar even further. It has all the quality characteristics as their other raw Zirconia solution plus incredible esthetics. It's the first time you have seen them put the eMax brand name onto a Zr material. We do buy in volume and pass the savings on to you.
The next revolution in strong aesthetic restorative materials is here, you are going to love it!
"Good, better, best. Never let it rest. 'Til your good is better and your better is best."
St. Jerome

The Position of the Salafī Scholars towards the Conflict in Syria and Groups Such as ISIS and al-Nusrah
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
As concerns continue to arise about the situation in Syria and Iraq where the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Shams (ISIS) has announced the alleged Caliphate, a number of so-called experts and academics have attempted to describe who ISIS is and what their aims are. However, unfortunately we keep hearing unsubstantiated claims, hysteria and misinformation. At a time when people need accurate answers and credible solutions to highlight the problem and prevent the influx of foreign fighters to this region. I have compiled a number of edicts from a group of senior Salafī scholars, which are intended to accurately clarify the Salafist position on these issues.

Your Imagination- the Happiest Place on Earth…At Least it Should Be!March 09, 2015
Your Imagination- The Happiest Place on Earth?
Do you want to play? Do you still remember how? Would you allow us to take you and your imagination on one of the yummiest, greatest, wildest, most beautiful and without a doubt the most fun adventure of our lifetimes?
All it requires is a little trust and a whole lot of imagination. To begin, take in a really big breath and as you exhale let go of fear, doubt, worry and most importantly limitations.
Why? Because our imaginations are limitless and within them, all things are possible! If you can see it, feel it…really experience it… then there's a very good chance you can actually create it… we'll save the discussion on that thought for another day.

In December The Duke of Cambridge (pictured above with Space for Giants CEO Dr Max Graham) was guest of honour at our Giants Club Dinner at Kensington Palace.
Prince William joined a group of philanthropists and influencers at the event which celebrated our achievements and discussed future goals.
Prince William wasn't the only Prince to attend, as among the African dignitaries present was Ugandan Prince Hassan Kimbugwe. Other guests included experts from frontline elephant protection, such as Kitili Mbathi, the Head of the Kenya Wildlife Service, and Professor Lee White, the Head of National Parks in Gabon.
Dr. Max Graham said: "Demand for ivory remains high and therefore elephants remain at real risk of being wiped out from the landscapes they have roamed for centuries. We urgently need to scale up investment in frontline protection for Africa's elephants, as well ensuring the legal penalties for wildlife crimes are robust and effectively implemented.
"We were honoured to be joined by distinguished guests, including HRH Prince William, to cultivate high level support from the world's most prominent key influencers and philanthropists for the plight of Africa's elephants and the landscapes they depend on."
The Duke of Cambridge has long been a powerful advocate for the protection of elephants and conservation across Africa, and has made the tackling of wildlife crime a personal cause.
In November the second-in-line to the throne gave an impassioned speech calling for a total ban on ivory trade in UK, saying endangered animals are still being slaughtered in 'horrifying numbers'.


text: Microsoft is reportedly working on a new streaming music service that will tie in to its Xbox suite of gaming and entertainment services. Bloomberg on Thursday cited multiple anonymous sources in stating that Microsoft is in talks with major music labels in order to secure licensing for a new streaming music service that will compete with the likes of Spotify when it launches later this year. Details are limited, but the service sounds very much like the Zune service Microsoft already offers, which allows users to purchase digital downloads or stream unlimited custom radio stations. Bloomberg notes that Zune music services will be shuttered following the launch of Xbox Music, and users will be moved over to the new offering.

Saturday night fun
The text still floats in my head... "Do you go to Walmart every Saturday night?"
Well, sadly, the answer is yes. I am not proud that my one night a week alone is spent at Walmart. It is very quiet there at that time, for apparent reasons. I have to be honest, it really isn't the bet night to go shopping. The shelves are usually empty and they don't always have what I need. Yet, I go every week. It needs to get done and if that means I get to sleep in on Sunday until 8 and stay in my pjs until 11. Then I will take it every week.
Although this week, I won't be shopping on Saturday night. I have much better plans.
Tonight is Ryan's first baseball game with his new team. I am so excited for him and his new team. I have no idea who they are playing but that doesn't diminish the excitement I have for him. He is going to look so grown up in his new uniform.
Ok, so I will probably end up at Walmart after the game :-)

Call me crazy. Call me naïve. I've been married for almost 17 years and my wife is white, so I've been called much worse, especially from those in the black community when I don't say something they want to hear or what they feel I'm "supposed" to say. It's really nothing new.
A few days ago, the Oscar voting took place. While I didn't watch, I understand that there weren't any black actors or predominantly black movies that received recognition. Shortly following that, the hashtag of #OscarsSoWhite was created. I don't think I have to explain what that means.
Will Chase is an actor on my favorite show on television right now; he plays "Luke Wheeler" on ABC's Nashville. In following him on Twitter, shortly after the Oscars, I began seeing his responses to the people who tweeted him about it. However, many were not simply people expressing unbiased and respectful opinions.
A lot of the tweets I saw were of folks attacking him for his views. Now it goes without saying that with years of experience in the business, Will knows just a little bit more about how things would go as far as the Oscars are concerned than those of us on the outside ever would.
To summarize, I believe that Will feels that this year's Oscars are no different than any other year and that race really is no part of it. I completely agree with that. Even not being an avid watcher of these awards shows, every single year, it's in the news that actors and movies are "snubbed." Same for a lot of television programs and these are white actors, along with shows with a predominantly white cast. So personally, I really don't understand how it's a race issue this year. I could tolerate if this was the first and only year this has happened, but there are issues like this every single year. If I hear it a lot and I don't even watch, then it's probably even more than I realize.
As for Will, people were telling him that being white, he is "privileged" and has no idea. They implied that he got where he is by that infamous "white privilege" and not by hard work. Then of course the classic "You're part of the problem" with little explanation to follow. His opinion doesn't match everyone else's, so clearly, the problem rests with him and people like him.
Will doesn't seem to put a lot of stock in the awards shows to begin with and he expressed that. So it wasn't even as if he was making excuses for why this particular show went the way it did. I'm sure the opinions of other actors aren't far of from that.
What I mean by that is this. We often hear most about those who win, but who as for those who do not or are nominated, not too much about them. So while it would be nice to believe that blacks are the absolutely ONLY ones to be "snubbed" and not receive awards and nominations as we would like them to, we are far from the only ones. Just research "Actors who have never won an Oscar." A lot of the names on there would surprise you.
Yes, I could do it for you. But I'm sure that people reading this are well-spoken and intelligent and have the ability to research for yourselves, correct? And you would never pull up ONLY what supports your stance, right? You'd be totally unbiased, right?
Speaking again of the television series Nashville, Connie Britton (who plays the lead character, "Rayna Jaymes" on the show) is the only actor in history to be nominated for an Emmy three straight years as actor on three different shows (Friday Night Lights in 2011, American Horror Story in 2012 and Nashville in 2013). Even fans of hers may not even know that. But this is what I'm talking about. Those who win, we hear much more about, but those who do not, not so much, even if they are nominated many times. Connie is an amazing actress who I didn't even know about until Nashville began in 2012.
Yet, the focus is solely on the black actors and movies with a predominantly black cast that happened this year in the Oscars and a few other times in history. Never mind the fact that the participants are likely not even similar to in previous years. In other words, let's say that something hasn't happened in 80 years. Well if those same circumstances don't exist in, let's say, 30 of those years, then it's not completely accurate to say that it's been 80 years all together.
As for the Oscars, people are saying that since 1929 (when they began), no movie with a predominantly black cast has won the award. My question is this: Has there been this type of movie every single year? No, it hasn't. So to say that a black movie "hasn't won in 87 years" isn't accurate…
…but it sound much better, doesn't it? Makes for a "stronger" argument, I suppose.
Even though black people were not the only ones to express concern about the Oscars, the embarrassing issue for me is those who are black and are making this, as with many other issues in life, about people being "racist."
That's not to say that for those who aren't black, it's okay to accuse someone of being racist. Not at all. But sadly, this comes more from our community than anyone else.
Looking on some Facebook pages and Twitter feeds, I'm seeing terms like "Hollywood is racist" and "White devils of Hollywood" and "They don't want to see us succeed" and many others. So even if there was a valid point somewhere in there, it would lost in all this nonsense that in many cases, is even more racist than what is being alleged from those in Hollywood.
Now there are black actors and filmmakers who are talking about boycotting the Oscars. Why? What would that solve?
So what are we doing? Boycotting "until we win"? Then how genuine would that feel? Then how long would it take before the issue was that we as blacks "didn't win as many awards as whites did"? Probably not very long, I think it's safe to assume.
My problem is that this only further adds to the "crying wolf" syndrome that has plagued the black community for many, MANY years. Are there legitimate cases of racism against blacks out there? Absolutely. But in calling damn near everything a case of it, that's where it loses its meaning, along with some support from people who aren't black who really do care, but eventually get tired of the foolishness as well.
Again, if blacks were the ONLY ones snubbed, then I would get it. But actors are snubbed every single year and way more white than black.
People say that there "needs to be equality." Fair enough. So how does this happen? One thing I've learned as an Army soldier for more than 18 years is that you don't speak about problems without offering solutions. So what would the solution be here? What would equate to "equality" as far as the Oscars are concerned?
If blacks won awards "just because" or a rule of some kind was changed to where blacks HAD to receive at least one award and/or nomination, how would that feel? How proud should we be as a community to win awards that way? Affirmative action for the Oscars. Yeah, sign me up for that one.
I've even heard people say, "There aren't enough roles for black people." What exactly is a black "role"? Something stereotypical? Considering all the roles I've heard black actors turn down or say that they'd never do (because it's not believed to be a typical "black" role), I'm having a tough time getting this one. "Black roles"? When casting takes place, is it really believed that most of these parts are ONLY for white people? How many have truly tried and lost an audition to a white person and race was specifically the reason?
What I see is that a lot of people are complaining, but don't have a viable solution. That could mean one of two things; either that there really isn't a problem and people are looking to fuss, or that there may be a problem, but people are more concerned with raising hell than offering sensible solutions.
I can imagine that some of you reading may think that as an aspiring screenwriter who happens to be black, that I truly have no place to speak about this. Maybe I don't. But I also know that I'm not about to let race be a crutch for me as many think it should or will be.
Yes, at times when I've spoken about this, I get the implication that I will eventually be disrespected and undervalued in the business simply because I am black.
Oh, but there are a lot of successful black people in the business. Ah, but yes…many of those, especially who aren't pro-black, are called "sellout," "Uncle Tom" and all the typical retorts. So either we aren't successful and race is the problem, or we are and we're belittled by our own community. Makes perfect sense.
Once again, call me whatever you would like. Chances are, I've heard it all before, many times. Even say that I'm "part of the problem" because I don't buy into the nonsense or blame everything on my race. It won't stop anything I'm doing. Even if you are someone who is further along than me, with that attitude, I'll certain catch up or bypass you one day. Don't get too comfortable.
I'll end this by saying that in the midst of all this, there is very little belief from our community that it's possible that our movies or actors just weren't good enough to win. In other words, many feel that just our existence should have been enough to get us an award or a nomination. There is no level of improvement from US that could be necessary. That is the most disturbing part of all. It almost doesn't even matter if our quality is good enough.
As a black aspiring screenwriter, I want to work hard to do good work. That's it. If my scripts win awards, then that's great. If they don't, I'm not going to jump off a bridge or go and boycott everything. I will just continue to work…
…because my love is in screenwriting, not in winning awards. If that makes me crazy or naïve, then so be it.

Getting the most from your dryland training
Roller skiing – Part 2
Roller skiing is the most ski specific dryland training for cross-country skiing, but how do you get the most from the time you invest in your training?
Vasaloppet and Birkebeiner champion John Kristian Dahl (NOR) shares his training advice on how to get the most out of the time invested, whether your main focus is marathons, sprints or World Cup distance skiing.
Dahl, who won both the Vasaloppet and the Birkebeiner this season, was on the Norwegian national sprint team for years before he switched to marathons with Team United Bakeries three years ago. Dahl explains that the differences in the roller ski workouts for marathon racers and sprint specialists are less than you might expect. The basic training principles are the same regardless of distance.
"Harder workouts are more efficient, no matter what distance you are preparing for, so there are really not much difference in the training," says the 35-year-old, who won Vasaloppet in his first season on the marathon circuit back in 2014.
Are you curious about what kind of skis the professional Ski Classics racers use? Take a look here
The biggest difference between marathon and sprint training is what you do with the roller ski workouts. What you do will be determined by both ambition level and race/distance target, Dahl explains.
"The number of workouts and the number of hours depends to a large extent on how much time you can invest in training, and what your main focus is. But some of your workouts should be in the neighborhood of your estimated race time," Dahl says.
For most ambitious skiers, about half of their overall training volume will be on roller skis. For the marathon racers, most of that volume is double-poling, both during distance-workouts and intervals.
"We do workouts that last four to five hours and sometimes even more, but its important to build up to this kind of volume gradually," Dahl says.
"We didn't jump into these kinds of workouts before we had a solid foundation of both specific strength and endurance. It's very easy to get overuse injuries. Start by introducing more and more double-poling as you get stronger."

The TRON suite will be especially appealing to TRON fans visiting Sweden
The ICEHOTEL in Jukkasjärvi, Sweden is kept at a comfortable 5 degrees Celsius and is built entirely of snow and ice. The first and largest in the world, ICEHOTEL Sweden offers one of the most unique hotel experiences you will ever have. "Our ideas originate from the place we stand on; Jukkasjärv. The river Torne that flows outside our office windows, the cold arctic climate, the Northern Lights and the Midnight Sun. Every season allows us to get inspired by the river, whether it is crystal clear ice, rapids shooting on a riverboat or a magnificent recently caught grayling." says ICEHOTEL on their website.
Imagining a visit to this hotel, I can feel the crisp cold air biting at my face as I approach, completely wrapped in a fur lined cloak with 5 layers underneath. Coming from the Pacific Northwest I think I am prepared for colder temperatures, but this is ridiculous! Just stepping outside of the land rover that brought us here and into the snow and cold air causes everyone to start coughing from the extreme temperature change. After the coughing subsides we stand and silently gaze as one at this miraculous structure before us, built entirely of snow and ice. The entrance beckons us forward with a false promise of warmth. At least there won't be a chill, biting wind inside. We make our way up to the double doors, boots crunching in the frozen snow, boot prints show signs that we are not the only visitors this afternoon. The doors are frozen shut and our guide smiles and says something in Swedish, moving to the front of the group he uses a metal pry bar to gently pop the doors open and then gently pushes them. The doors glide open without a sound and display an elegant entryway full of ice chandeliers and furniture carved from blocks of ice. Snow lines the floor and we wander in with our mouths wide open, gazing at everything in awe. The doors slam shut and we whip around, startled by the loud sound. A man in fine furs stands ready to welcome us and give us the grand tour.
We have arrived at ICEHOTEL in Sweden, this is sure to be an experience to remember for the rest of our lives!
The ICEHOTEL is not a only a hotel they build each winter, it is an ephemeral art project. Their gastronomic menu incorporates the many flavors of Swedish Lapland. Each year, ICEHOTEL attracts visitors from all over the world to a little village in Lapland, 200 km north of the Arctic Circle. Many of them are taken further north, and explore the high mountains, all the way to the northern Norway to visit the fjords.
Would you stay at the ICEHOTEL given the chance?

In a bright room at the Wiener Library – the world's oldest Holocaust archive, in a building off Russell Square – the curator Barbara Warnock is telling me about the first generation of Holocaust researchers; men and women who risked their lives, during and after the war, to collect evidence of all kinds that bore witness to the horrors that they themselves often experienced.
It's the day before the opening of the library's exhibition, Crimes Uncovered: The First Generation of Holocaust Researchers. The walls are lined with pictures of people, places, books and records. We look up at a middle-aged man in a suit, wide-shouldered, charismatic, a wry look on his face. A picture taken years after the war, years after horrors few of us can imagine.
Filip Müller was barely 20 years old when, in April of 1942, he was deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp. The young Jewish Slovak was a sonderkommando; part of a forced labour unit, he was ordered to burn the bodies of his fellow prisoners in the ovens. As far as the Nazis were concerned, Müller was good at the job, able to tell those who were about to be murdered that they were safe as he readied the gas chambers.
That – along with his extraordinary mental and physical toughness – played a part in ensuring his survival. But during his time in Auschwitz, Müller was doing something else: collecting evidence. Caught in a horrific, vulnerable position, the young man tried to kill himself when he realised that he had been facilitating the killing of thousands of Jews. He entered a gas chamber along with a group of fellow prisoners who were forced there, but, as he recorded in a memoir written years after the war, a little girl came up to him and convinced him not to do what he was doing.
"We understand that you have chosen to die with us of your own free will, and we have come to tell you that we think your decision is pointless," she told him. "Perhaps you'll survive this terrible tragedy and then you must tell everybody what happened to you."
So this is what Müller did. He had an eye on history, on recording what had happened, to make sure the world knew what was happening in the hell he found himself in.
"It may have also been, for someone like Müller, a way of keeping hold of your own humanity whilst you're being forced to be involved in the most inhumane acts," Warnock tells me. "He was having to work in the gas chambers and dispose of the bodies. Being involved in the gathering of information and resistance might have been a way of holding onto your humanity."
Müller tried to keep records of the names of SS officers working around him, as well as notes of the transports that arrived at the camp. He managed to get a label from a can of Zyklon B, the poison that was used to kill at least a million people at Auschwitz and Majdanek. He obtained plans of the gas chambers and crematoria and he passed all this information on to two of his fellow inmates, Rudolf Vrba and Alfred Wetzler.
Also sonderkommando, Vrba and Wetzler were charged with escaping from Auschwitz, which they managed, on the eve of Passover, the 7th of April, 1944, hiding in a wood pile for three nights, soaked to the bone, counting down the time for almost 80 hours.
By this point, the Allies already knew that Jews were being murdered in vast numbers at Auschwitz. Based in London, the Polish government in exile had contacts in resistance networks passing information to them, and in late 1942 they issued a note to the embryonic United Nations entitled The Mass Extermination of Jews in German Occupied Poland. But the eyewitness accounts written by Vrba and Wetzler after their escape, The Auschwitz Protocols, were a great leap forward in terms of enlightening the public and ruling powers across the world as to what was happening in the extermination camps. Müller himself remained at Auschwitz until, with the Red Army looming, the Germans abandoned it. He was forced to march to Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria, which was eventually liberated.
After the war, says Warnock, "He just settled into a fairly ordinary life except, periodically, appearing to give testimony." He wrote his memoir, was interviewed by Claude Lanzmann for the magisterial, nine-hour long documentary Shoah, lived in Prague and then in the west until his death in 2013, at the age of 91.
There are many more stories. Of Emmanuel Ringelblum and Rachel Auerbach, who, as part of the Onyeg Shabbos (Joy of Sabbath) group, collected evidence from inside the Warsaw ghetto and then buried that evidence in milk cans in basements and inside the cavities of buildings. They both escaped; while Auerbach survived, Ringelblum was killed. After the war, the testimonies on Jewish life they had collected in the ghetto were partially recovered, Auerbach returning to the places she'd hidden them and recovering some of the evidence. Some of it may still be there in Warsaw.
Then there's Alfred Wiener himself, the man who founded the library and who saw, as early as 1919, the rise of a new and more dangerous form of antisemitism in Germany and across Europe; who could see that Jewish people were being demonised following the First World War, blamed – along with socialists and communists – for Germany's defeat. Wiener read Mein Kampf in 1925 and immediately saw what was at stake. In 1933, he was forced to leave Germany for Amsterdam and then, as the end of the decade approached, he had to come to London. His first wife died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.
Wiener's presence – and the presence of those who made this history – fills the space at his library. There are moments contemplating this exhibition, when the horror of what happened threatens to overwhelm you, where the room feels like it will be swallowed and the emotions that swell up from the ground seem uncontainable.
That is the quiet power of what the library has done here. But there is also hope and, in the end, a profound kind of triumph. Some of this first generation of Holocaust evidence gatherers were murdered. Some survived. But all of them told the story of what was happening and what happened. All of them gave powerful testimony to the world. All of them contributed to an overwhelming body of evidence, to something undeniable. In extraordinary circumstances, they showed extraordinary bravery, holding fast to a lifeboat of humanity amid a roaring sea of inhumanity. At a time when Holocaust denial has still not gone away, this first generation's testimony must be heard again.

Kohanaiki Achieves Audubon International Signature Certification
"The entire Kohanaiki team is proud to have reached this benchmark and shares the commitment of taking care of the land with Audubon International," said Joe Root, President and Chief Executive Officer of Kohanaiki.
"The completion of this golf course has been a while in coming, but it is certainly worth the wait," said Nancy Richardson, Signature Program Director. "Kohanaiki is representative of a sustainable approach to development with a special focus on water quality protection, wildlife habitat, historical and cultural preservation. It will serve as a model for other projects not only in Hawai`i but the world as well. "
Kohanaiki, a 450-acre private residential community on Hawai`i's Big Island, is located two miles south of Kona International Airport and five miles north of Kailua-Kona. It is home to a Rees Jones-designed 18-hole golf course, 9-acre Practice Facility, Clubhouse, multiple restaurants, and other amenities. Stretching along a mile and a half of coastline on the island's leeward side, with room for 500 homes, Kohanaiki is dotted with more than 200 anchialine pools that range from the size of a fist to a swimming pool and lie mostly between the golf course and the sea. These pools were historically utilized by Hawaiians to raise fish and shrimp and the waters used for cooking, drinking and bathing. There are also 13 Ahu (rock shrines) running parallel to the anchialine pools, and an existing historic trail (Mamalahoa Trail) crosses through the property. The Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historic Park borders the property to the south and the shoreline of the Pacific Ocean forms the western edge.
Kohanaiki takes its name from its traditional land division, the Kohanaiki ahupua`a, which stretches from the sea to the mountain. These lands sustained a thriving village up until the early 19th century, where islanders harvested fish from the sea and fishponds, and cultivated gourds, coconuts, and taro on upland slopes. Kohanaiki's name means "small bareness" and refers to the lava flows that cover its lower slopes, disgorged by Mount Hualālai 3,000-5,000 years ago.
Environmental highlights of the project include:
· Drainage – Drainage water from the golf course is routed to dry wells that contain charcoal to filter out pollutants. This also provides protection for the holes near the ocean and anchialine pools.
· Water Monitoring – To ensure that the anchialine pools and Pacific Ocean are not degraded from construction or long-term use of the property, a water quality-monitoring program was implemented and continues into the operational and long-term management phase of the project.
· Vegetative Buffers – Tall native grasses along the edge of the numerous water bodies help to filter the water and prevent erosion. A 25-foot "no spray zone" ensures that pesticides will be absorbed before they reach any water body.
· Landscaping – Xeriscaping, the use of drought tolerant plants to reduce or eliminate additional watering, has been implemented throughout the property to promote efficient irrigation practices and reduce maintenance.
· Waste Management Program – A property-wide waste management program is in place to ensure the sustainable use and reuse of almost all products and to enable the creation of soil from landscape materials.
· Endangered Species – The Hawaiian Stilt (Ae`o), federally and state listed as endangered, nests on site. The Hawaiian Monk Seal, one of the rarest mammals in the world, and the Nene, the world's rarest goose, can also be spotted around the property.

The Learning Innovation Center (PIP) of Parahyangan Catholic University (Unpar) has once again held the Core Skills Introductory Course on Monday (13/3) and Tuesday (14/3) in the Operation Room of Building 0, Unpar Rectorate.
Working closely with the British Council Indonesia, PIP Unpar invited Unpar lecturers to participate in discussing the activities designed to develop core skills (core skills) in the learning process. Participants were actively involved in discussions and group work to deepen the understanding of the concept and plan their learning application based on core skills. The core skills include: citizenship, collaboration and communication, creativity and imagination, critical thinking and problem solving, digital literacy, and leadership.
Lecturers were introduced to the concept of core skills, otherwise known as 21st century skills. These skills must be possessed by learners in preparing themselves for the challenges posed by the global economy.
The Head of PIP Agus Sukmana said that the training is open to all lecturers of Unpar, especially senior lecturers. He added that senior lecturers need to be equipped with the concept of the core skills to be able to reflect on their teaching experience into the training as well as the age difference between lecturers and students.
"PIP wishes to build awareness that the world has changed and invites lecturers to evolve in managing the learning process, as well as how to respond to the students because their generation is indeed different, and thus cannot be treated with the same way. If you do not update and understand, it's likely that lecturers will consider the current generation to be lazy and uncritical", Agus explained.
When interviewed in his office, Agus said that the training is packaged with reflective and play-and-learn inductive characteristics. When playing, he added, participants will reflect on themselves, unlike other training courses that are one way in nature. According to him, lecturers should be trained in a variety of ways.
Coaches from various universities in Bandung are also working with Unpar to deliver materials regarding the concept of core skills. Participants were introduced to the ways of learning, i.e., think-pair-share, role play, brainstorming, whole-group discussions, small-group discussions, and more. The participants consisted of 36 lecturers from seven faculties at Unpar, the Faculty of Economics (FE), the Faculty of Industrial Technology (FTI), the Faculty of Law (FH), the Faculty of Philosophy (FF), the Faculty of Engineering (FT), the Faculty of Information Technology and Science (FTIs), and the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP), grouped into seven groups, each containing 4-5 people.
Each group had to write down the advantages and disadvantages of each method of learning on paper A0. After time had run out, each group moves to another group's table to see the results of other groups and add new ideas when there is a shortage.
"Having followed the earlier activity, I learned to listen to opinions, dare to express opinions, and discovered new things from a variety of ideas that enrich my knowledge, "said a Lecturer of General Courses (MKU) Samho Bartholomew, SS, M.Pd. when answering the question coaches.
PIP plan for more detailed training on one topic because after the second batch of the Introductory Course, it will be a long time before it will open the third batch. Agus said, PIP will open a training course to design the learning process and it is hoped participants will implement them in the course of ten weeks. At the end of the course in December, Agus added, participants will re-convene and share experiences in implementing the learning process in this course.
"This plan will serve as a priority for PIP to sensitize and train lecturers for non-content knowledge, there are also skills that must be applied and trained in the learning process," he said.
One participant, a FISIP lecturer named Roni Tua S.IP., MT agrees on the changing way of delivering lectures due to the changing times and mindset. According to him, the support of the campus will facilitate changes in how to teach, such as various color markers, so that lecturers do not have to set it up themselves.
This is not the case with MKU Lecturer Yusuf Siswantara, SS, M. Hum. He states that many new things he learned in structuring teaching and materials given inspiring and challenging enough to put into practice.
he explained " Management is the keyword. There are some things that have been missed, for example in giving a question in class. We are supposed to give the deliberate and sequenced questions, which are informative, profound, or to be answered in unison, ".
He took the example one of the courses he taught, Logic and Basic Leadership. During this time, he said, many students assume that the logic is the same as thinking, but that is not the case because it has creative side. On the other hand in basic leadership course, he added, creativity is indeed mentioned in the lesson. However, the assessment matrix must be considered because creativity is not just assessed subjectively, there is also the side of originality.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. – No. 5/5 Syracuse used the draw to gain a decided advantage in time of possession and held off a late Notre Dame comeback attempt to knock off the No. 7/7 University of Notre Dame women's lacrosse team, 11-8, in BIG EAST action Friday night at the Carrier Dome.
"After tonight's game there were some major positives from the 60 minutes that we will continue to build off in this final stretch of the regular season and into the postseason," said head coach Christine Halfpenny. "Our defense took a massive step forward as they showed how dynamic and versatile they can be by combining a number of different looks that were disruptive to Syracuse's offense.
"I'm also happy with tonight's shooting percentage that shows us that when we can gain possession and have opportunities on goal we can finish. Moving forward we have to continue to work on limiting our unforced errors and gaining possession of the draw. The reality at this level is that draw controls and time of possession are the difference makers between wins and losses."
The Orange out-drew the Irish 14-7 on the night, including 8-3 in the first half as the home team built a 7-3 lead heading into the locker room. Notre Dame rallied in the second half, tightening up in the draw circle as well as on defense to out-score Syracuse, 5-4, but couldn't overcome a five-goal deficit just four minutes into the second half to put the pressure back on the Orange.
Turning in another strong night between the pipes as she faced intense pressure from the Orange offense was senior goalie Ellie Hilling, who made 11 saves and had a .500 save percentage. The Rochester, N.Y., also added four ground balls.
In all, Syracuse took 34 shots to just 15 for the Irish. Notre Dame made the most of its limited opportunities however, tallying eight scores on just 11 shots on goal.
"Ellie's ability to stop 50% of one the best shooting offenses in the country's shots gave us confidence and gave us the opportunity to stay in the game when we weren't getting very many possessions."
Hilling was helped by several strong performances on defense, including freshman Stephanie Peragallo (3GB, 3CT), sophomore Barbara Sullivan (4GB, 2CT) and freshman Stephanie Toy (2GB, 2CT).
Notre Dame was hindered by 22 turnovers, including eight unforced turnovers that stalled several Irish possessions.
The Irish came out of the halftime break and watched as Syracuse stretched its lead to 9-4. However, Notre Dame didn't give up, as it scored three consecutive goals in just 3:57 to move the score to 9-7. Brie Custis and Kaitlyn Brosco scored a pair of unassisted goals before Brosco made a nice dish to McKenzie Brown to trim the margin to just two.
Brosco (1G, 1A) and Brown (2G) each tallied two points to provide a spark off the bench for the Irish in the second half. The duo tied senior Jenny Granger (2G) for team lead in points.
Syracuse wouldn't let the lead slip away though as it scored a pair of goals in 40 seconds to give the Orange a four goal lead with 12:25 remaining in regulation. The Irish rounded out the scoring with 3:27 as freshman Austin Pruitt sprinted up three-fourths of the field and found Lauren Sullivan for a goal that gave the game its final score. The assist was Pruitt's first of her career.
The Orange was led by a pair of five-point performances from standouts Alyssa Murray (4G, 1A) and Kayla Treanor (2G, 3A).
The Irish (11-2, 5-2 BIG EAST) return to action at 12 p.m. Sunday when they meet UConn (12-1, 4-1 BIG EAST) in Storrs, Conn.
On the strength of the draw, the Orange jumped all over the Irish early in the first half. Two of the first four Syracuse goals came immediately following a successful draw control as the home team jumped out to a 4-0 lead just 11:02 into the game.
Granger stopped the bleeding just minutes later, finding the back of the net at 17:56 off a free position attempt. A little more than a minute later the Irish were on the march again as Granger fired a shot that hit the post. Fortunately for the Irish the ball ricocheted back to Granger, who scooped up the ground ball and powered the ball past Kelsey Richardson to move the scoreboard to 4-2.
Two more goals stretched Syracuse's lead to 6-2, before Caitlin Gargan took matters into her own hands and found the back of the net to trim the margin back to three. The Orange answered a minute later as Katie Webster scored to carry Syracuse into halftime with a 7-3 lead.


text: Women entrepreneurship is receiving attention in the millennium with various stakeholders such as government, Non-Governmental Organisations and the public recognising the potential that entrepreneurship has to influence the economy positively. Women entrepreneurs have been regarded as the backbone of many economies because of their ability to found and develop new enterprises and in the process create more new job opportunities. However, extant literature agreed that entrepreneurial women face a myriad of challenges associated with their multifaceted livelihoods exacerbated by the fact that women had been marginalised in their history. The study was anchored in the qualitative research paradigm. A case study design was adopted to allow in depth information to be obtained from the informants. A convenient sample of six cross border women entrepreneurs was used to generate data through open-ended interviews, which allowed the informants to say more about the phenomenon under study. Results of the study were that cross border women entrepreneurs faced innumerable challenges including among others lack of adequate information about markets, lack of information on custom policies and procedures, fear of infidelity, lack of bookkeeping knowledge, lack of business decision making right and increased responsibilities for women in the family. Therefore, the study recommended that information centres must be established in each province of Zimbabwe, establish a centre for custom policies and procedures at each entry/ exit point and develop stakeholder relations approach at the borders.

(This article belongs to the Section Physical Sensors)
Recently, compressive sensing (CS) has attracted increasing attention in the areas of signal processing, computer vision and pattern recognition. In this paper, a new method based on the CS theory is presented for robust facial expression recognition. The CS theory is used to construct a sparse representation classifier (SRC). The effectiveness and robustness of the SRC method is investigated on clean and occluded facial expression images. Three typical facial features, i.e., the raw pixels, Gabor wavelets representation and local binary patterns (LBP), are extracted to evaluate the performance of the SRC method. Compared with the nearest neighbor (NN), linear support vector machines (SVM) and the nearest subspace (NS), experimental results on the popular Cohn-Kanade facial expression database demonstrate that the SRC method obtains better performance and stronger robustness to corruption and occlusion on robust facial expression recognition tasks.

| 12.9°C Dublin
The family of a toddler who was knocked down in the driveway of her grandparents' home last week say they are "beyond thankful" that she is slowly recovering.
Little Annalise McDonagh suffered serious injuries after she was knocked down by a car at the family home in Kilbannon outside Tuam, Co Galway just over one week ago.
The 16-month-old was rushed to Temple Street Children's Hospital where she remains sedated and on a ventilator.
However, doctors are pleased with her progress.
Her anxious family have remained in Dublin for the past week to support Annalise's parents Edward and Bernadette, who are the only ones allowed by her bedside.
Her grandfather Michael McDonagh said the family were "beyond thankful" for the progress that the toddler has made.
"The doctors are very happy with how she is doing," he said.
"She is still on the ventilator and they are taking things slowly.
"It's baby steps but things are looking good," he added.
A brain scan has returned positive results and reflex tests suggest she has feeling in both arms and legs.
"Now we are just waiting for her to be taken off the ventilator," her grandfather said.
"I don't care how long it takes we're just so happy that it has gone this way.
"Her parents are over the moon," he added.
Mr McDonagh praised all the staff at Temple Street for the care they have given Annalise and said that the family would remain in Dublin by her side for as long as it takes.
The little girl was struck in an accident as her uncle reversed a car at the McDonagh home on Monday, April 6.

Numerous variations of crab cakes exist, and this one takes its cue from Cajun cuisine. A quick sauté on the cooktop crisps them on the outside without saturating them in oil.
How to Make It
To prepare crab cakes, combine first 7 ingredients (through egg). Add panko and crab, tossing gently to combine.
Fill a 1/4-cup dry measuring cup with crab mixture. Invert onto work surface; gently pat into a 1-inch-thick patty. Repeat procedure with remaining crab mixture, forming 12 cakes.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add crab cakes to pan; cook 2 minutes or until bottoms are golden. Carefully turn crab cakes; cook 2 minutes or until bottoms are golden and crab cakes are thoroughly heated. Remove crab cakes from pan; keep warm.
To prepare rémoulade, combine 1 cup yogurt and next 6 ingredients (through red pepper) in a small bowl; stir with a whisk. Serve crab cakes with rémoulade and lemon slices.

4 Outdoor had the perfect outdoor shed I was looking for. They came a prepared the land with perfect drainage. On the same afternoon the shed arrived, exact color and roofing. Within one hour the shed was installed. The quality of the shed is excellent.
A custom 12 x 20 vinyl storage shed was built by 4-Outdoor for our community. It had to match the existing structures in our community that were built 20 years ago. The entire project exceeded all of our expectations at every level! The prep work was exceptional! The shed was a perfect match, right down to the red tin roof! The finish work made the structure blend right in with the existing landscape and structures! It was well worth every dollar spent and only adds to the integrity of our beautiful community! Last but not least, the office staff as well as the onsite crew were wonderful to do business with, very professional! Thank you 4-Outdoor, you ALL rock!
Shed delivered as promised in reasonable time with no problems. Very pleased.
We ordered a shed for the Walkersville High School Band Boosters and it came out exactly as asked. Delivery was easy and Brett was very thorough with ensuring the shed was level and in place.
We were in need of a shed to free up space in our garage. Saw 4-Outdoor as I was driving to dine on hard shell crabs. Got back home and checked out their products on the web. I saw many fine examples of what we were looking for. Drove our to business and spoke with Cindy, who helped me select a style. I brought back samples of our home siding and shingles. We were able to match our house with shed options. When site prep guys arrived they were able to prepare site to my request. The delivery of shed went without a hitch, placement was perfect. the quality of construction was excellent, and matched our house. We are very pleased with choosing 4-Outdoor for are shed. Thank you all.

While gambling has been around for an incomprehensibly drawn out stretch of time, online gambling is a tolerably better way to deal with have a punt. One of the key pieces of poker is the 'tell'. If you have watched any poker film for the most part you will understand that the best approach to working out what your foe is accepting is to work out something they do in their facial features or non-verbal correspondence which reveals to you what they are thinking. Pretending or not govern in doubt. In any case, if you have an incredibly plainly obvious 'tell' by then you are in a troublesome circumstance. Online poker causes you dodge this totally. Online poker looks like playing with a sack on your head. The principle issue is you cannot see your opponents tell either.
Facilitated Betting
A present example is online gambling is to endeavor a planned wagering exertion. This incorporates utilizing the many free bets offered by online gaming goals and working a reasonably fundamental structure to ensure that you just ever make little adversities as a result of guaranteed gains. This is a games wagering system which relies upon your dedication and the making of lay bets against all your standard bets and advancing toward structure your advantages progressively. There are various goals which offer wagering direction and free bets so this is by a wide edge the least requesting and most secure way to deal with wager online.
One magnificent part of online gambling is 'bet in-play'. This component empowers you to bet on each unobtrusive element of organize as it is going on. For example you can bet that there will be 2 yellow cards in the accompanying 20 minutes or perhaps that there will be only one corner over the latest 10 minutes of the game. What may be contrasted with this would incorporate running to a great extent from the stands hurling money at your bookie at customary interims. You can picture how this would work if a huge bit of the people in the stands did this immediately. This is the explanation it does not exist, in reality. By watching your pot of cash and making simply sensible bets you can have some roused bets come through rapidly. Click https://sanook69s.com/happyluke.

How to check a train schedule in The Netherlands
Train is the main public transportation in Netherlands. When you arrive for the first time in Netherlands in Schipol airports, you need to buy train tickets in the ticket desk or ticket machine.
How much is the ticket cost, where is the track and the departure time? you can see in NS (official trains company in The Netherlands) website. You can follow the instruction bellow.
- You can change the language from Dutch into English by clicking English in top corner of the website.
- Put you 'start' city and destination also the date and the time, then click 'give trip and price'
- In the left column, you can see how late the train will departure and arrive.
- In this picture you see mark + and colour with red, It means that the train is late from the schedule. This situation happens due to bad weather.
- In the right column you see the time, track of the rain and the cost.
- The ticket price that you need to see is 2nd class or 1st class, without discount, one way or same day return journey. Because I assume, you don't have the train subscription yet.
- See the instruction video bellow that I made 🙂
- When you want to buy ticket in the ticket desk, mention the destination, one way or return journey (only valid for one day), with normal price. You get charge 50 cent euro because of buying it in ticket desk.
- Sometimes the train desk is very busy and I prefer buy from the ticket machine. Then you need Euro coins or valid bankcard to buy in the ticket machines.
- If you plans to live in The Netherlands for more than 3 months and going to travel a lot with train, I suggest you to take train discount subscription. You can asked more in helpdesk in train station or go to NS website.
- After register, you got temporary discount card. In two weeks after that, you will get your subscription card which also OV-chipkaart (sort of smart card that you can upload the amount)
Good Luck and remember the train is almost never late!

At the end of every year I name what I think was the best workout system or workout DVD that I reviewed that year. This year I have to go with DailyBurn's Inferno HR workout program led by Anja Garcia.
Right before I engaged in this program my workouts had become stale. They felt like a chore and I was just uninspired. DailyBurn Inferno HR brought back the excitement and endorphins that I had enjoyed previously.
See my review from June 29, 2014:
DailyBurn's Inferno HR is one of their latest program offerings. I reviewed DailyBurn previously on my blog (see here: https://mistransformation.wordpress.com/2012/12/16/review-of-dailyburn-personalized-fitness-websiteservice/ ) and mentioned the classic Inferno program and how much I liked it. I like that the women in the workouts aren't merely there for T&A. Women are the leaders and the trainers. It's nice to watch the boys struggle with this one.
In this latest program, Inferno HR turns up the heat and then some. Once I completed the first HR workout the endorphins kicked in big time. It was a rush I had been missing. Boy am I glad to be back at DailyBurn!
Inferno HR is led by Anja Garcia. Who else but Anja could bring us something this intense? Inferno HR is designed to be used with a HeartRate monitor that you can purchase through DB and link it to an app that monitors you while working out. You use your computer/roku, etc. to do your workout and then you are monitored on another device such as your tablet or smart phone. It looks like a really cool feature and the market isn't exactly flooded with programs such as this. I did not use the HeartRate monitor feature myself, but sort of judged how I felt on my own and even took my heart rate manually when possible. I know this wasn't as accurate but I wanted to see how I liked the program before I invested in it. If I do another round, I may buy the monitor.
In Inferno HR there are 4 separate workouts and they are all structured differently. That is why I liked this program so much. You were getting something different with each workout. It wasn't the same mundane thing all the time.
The zones described below are where your heart rate is. Zones 0/1 being the lowest and zones 4/5 being the highest. Zone 5 is the max.
Body Blast – Two exercises 30 seconds of work/30 seconds of rest each maintaining zone 4 – then combining the moves for 1 minute doing 4 reps each move working to zone 5. (41:45 total time
Metcon Challenge Three blocks of exercises maintaining zone 4 then 1 minute of Core work in zone 3 and a 1 minute zone 5 cardio challenge. (52:32 total time)
Tabata POC – Tabata round is one exercise 8 times through with 20 seconds of work/10 seconds of rest working to zone 5 – – 5 exercises 50 seconds of work/10 seconds of rest times through maintaining zone 4– repeating protocol with new exercises. (51:21 total time)
Build & Burn – Four blocks of 3 rounds of exercises maintaining zone 4 the whole time. (54:06 total time)
You get three active rest days per week total including mobility, yoga and foam rolling.
Anja is a great trainer and likens the workouts to being like your own video game when you can view your heart rate while you are working out to stay in your zone.
After completing the first round of HR I was able to fit back into a pair of my jeans after gaining a bit of winter weight. I am following this with a round of Classic Inferno and am continuing to get a bit leaner and feeling strong. I cannot wait to get back to another round of HR. If these Inferno workouts do not sound like your cup of tea, DailyBurn offers many more programs from True Beginner to Kettlebells, to Tactical Training, Dance and Yoga. At $10 a month, DailyBurn is a bargain.

Chennai, June 28 : Actor Viswant, who has shared screen space with Malayalam superstar Mohanlal in upcoming Telugu drama "Manamantha", describes the experience of working with the veteran as his career-high moment.
"For someone like me who is just a film old, to act besides Mohanlal sir is like a career-high moment. Despite being a superstar, he is so humble and supportive. When I met him on the sets, he initiated a conversation and made me feel comfortable, Viswant told IANS, adding that his first shot in the film was with Mohanlal.
He admits he was nervous initially.
"I wanted to get the first take right in the first attempt. It's called the golden take and I was very particular nothing went wrong.
"However, when I learnt my first shot was with Mohanlal sir, I was slightly nervous but luckily everything went smoothly," he said, crediting the "Drishyam" actor's support.
"I realised Mohanlal sir is very good at improvising on the spot. If his co-star fumbles a bit, he knows how to improvise and take the scene forward," he added.
Directed by National Award winning filmmaker Chandrasekhar Yeleti, the film also stars veteran actress Gauthami Tadimalla.
Working with Gauthami was equally special for Viswant.
"On the sets, I voluntarily went and spoke to her. One of the best qualities about her is that she is very punctual. If the shoot is at 7 a.m., she will be there on time and not even a minute late. There's so much to learn from her," he said.
The film, which is slated for release in July, is about four different individuals and how they cross paths.
For Viswant, never did he feel like he "worked" on this project.
"It felt like a journey. We all worked with the 'let's do it' attitude. This project was a big confidence booster and by the time we finished working, it felt like I had worked in five films. Everybody was so warm and welcoming on the sets," he said.
Commenting on his collaboration with director Yeleti, he said: "People have a lot of presumptions about him. They say he only makes offbeat films but I think his films are one-of-a-kind. Only when you talk to him, you know he is very sweet and friendly."
Produced by Sai Korrapati, the film will also be released in Malayalam as "Vismayam", and has music by Mahesh Shankar.
