PODCAST: Welcome Back!
I love to experience the change of the season as it helps me to reflect on my life and prepare for the opportunities that lie ahead. For many of us, change can be difficult but usually necessary. This playlist will provide you with soulful sounds that will make getting back into any daily routine fun.
Where I am, everything is rapidly changing all around me. The leaves are beginning to change colors and there is a crisper feeling in the air. The days are getting shorter and the summer is fading away. There is a feeling of anxiousness and excitement as schools are back in session and summer hours at work are ending.The feeling of starting a new year fresh and refreshed from our summer bliss is the motivation we all need to begin the year on a positive note. The phase "Welcome back" is heard often during this time of the year, and luckly for you I have just the playlist you need that will put that added pep into your step and get you ready to take on the world.
Here are my top 10 Welcome Back jams! These jams will help motivate and get you to appreciate the new season that is upon us.

With PASO elections this Sunday, our weekend routine is experiencing a bit of a mix-up — club go-ers, if you want to party it'll have to be on Friday night, since the electoral veda goes into effect on Saturday at midnight. The veda prohibits the sale of alcohol, and takes your favorite boliches out of commission — so if you'd like to organize a house party instead, we suggest you stock up before Saturday. On another note, there are still plenty of things to do (believe it or not) that do not involve imbibing alcohol! See a film or some live theater, get your gamer on, or make your own paraben free soap — your liver will definitely thank you for it.
Friday 11th August
'Buenos Aires Makes You Fat' (Buenos Aires te engorda) is a new tour in town hosted by Ayres Viajes that will have you eating your way through the city's most famous bodegones. A bodegón — or what we might call typical, neighborhood eatery in English — is a place that specializes in serving up porteños' favorite comfort food. In this case, think meat, potatoes, pasta, lentil stew, or even something more typical of a greasy spoon, like über cheesy pizza, or freshly baked empanadas golden with yolk. The tour starts along Avenida de Mayo, and you absolutely must make a reservation before showing up (send an email to [email protected]). Tickets are AR $485 per person.
8:15 – 11:15 PM | Avenida de Mayo 1260 | AR $485 | More info
Accordionist Hernán Crespo is presenting his new, award winning CD 'Puertos' in the Centro Cultural de la Memoria Haroldo Conti this evening, together with Emilio Turco on guitar, Rafael Delgado on cello, Mariano Gómez on violin, and Agustín Lumerman on percussion.

The concert is part of a larger cycle celebrating Argentina's 'Mesopotamia' or 'Land Between the Rivers' that includes a number of recitals and film screenings. Tickets to the event are free, and are given out an hour before the concert starts, with a maximum of two per person.

Cinephiles take note! MALBA's next film series will be celebrating the work of Dario Argento, an Italian director (though with a last name like that we thought he was Argentine) whose principal claim to fame is his special brand of horror movies that were produced during the 70's and 80's. Tonight both Suspiria (1977) and Tenebra (1982) will be screening in the museum, and as usual, you get to see the two films for the price of one. Tickets are AR $60 and can be bought on Friday at the door.

The tenth edition of Minima Disco's 'Ciclo Nuevo Puerto' is taking place in Naranja Verde tonight — and if you haven't been to one of the previous installments we recommend checking out this one. The premise of the ciclo is to promote up and coming bands — groups that you are probably not familiar with, nor have ever heard of, but that you would almost certainly like given the chance. Uruguayan power duo Magic Tundra will open with a DJ Set, followed by live shows from Mauro Valenti, Telefonema, Lynx, and Re Signados. For a more in-depth description of what to expect, or for more live music options, check out The Setlist.

A theatrical rendition of Roberto Jacoby and Syd Krochmalny's poem 'Diarios del Odio' incorporating music will be staged at the Centro Cultural de la Memoria Haroldo Conti this evening. An inquiry into human behavior — and in particular how people behave in masses — the piece will examine what great numbers of bodies are capable of: marches, protests, strikes, systematic violence, and looting. Additionally, the piece will also examine a number of hateful comments left on the digital editions of La Nación and Clarín during the Kirchner years, vocalizing them through poetic-pop songs with more than a touch of evangelism. Tickets to the event are free, and will be given out an hour before the function starts. A maximum of two can be obtained per person.
9 – 11 PM | Centro Cultural de la Memoria Haroldo Conti (Libertador 8151) | Free | More info
Celtic Argentina will be staging some of Ireland's greatest stories tonight in Teatro Armenio through the performance of traditional music and dance. The organization, founded in 1979, has the distinct honor of being the first Irish dance school to be opened on the continent, and for good reason. Argentina, allegedly home to South America's largest Irish community, took in an estimated 40,000 Irish immigrants up until the end of the 19th century, and today, approximately half a million Argentines claim Irish heritage. Tickets to tonight's events are AR $200 each — reserve yours by sending an email today ([email protected]).

Have you always nursed a secret passion for origami? Perhaps you always cultivated it but were too intimidated to try? If you'd like to make it past the paper hats and fortune tellers, and progress, to say, paper cranes, head on over to the Jardín Japonés this Saturday with 95 pe in your pocket. From 2 – 5 PM, origami geniuses Cristina Lualdi and Noemí Nohara will be demonstrating paper-folding techniques at various tables in the garden, and coordinating some actual hands on activities.

For the health conscious of you who have toyed with, or even actually tried, making things like your own deodorant, this do-it-yourself natural cosmetics class is definitely for you.

Pay-what-you-can film screenings? Now that's a first. Rapsodia Cinema has organized a showing of the 1984 classic Paris, Texas for this evening — and the theme is (you guessed it) 'The Road Movie,' where the destination is not as nearly important as the journey. Come for the evocative cinematography, and in particular, for the emotional shots of the desert landscapes. Homemade goodies will be available for purchase, and for the exact address send a private message here or via email ([email protected]).
6:30 PM | Exact address via private message | Pay-what-you-can | More info
A second showing of 'SECA,' a dramatic work inspired by Federico García Lorca's tragic, poetic play Yerma, is being presented tonight in Teatro del Artefacto. For our non-Spanish Lit majors, it's worth noting that the title of the play means 'barren' in English, and the original story revolves around the life of childless woman in rural Spain — and the lengths she goes to to become a mother. Combining both theater and flamenco, 'SECA' is a unique work of art that springs from one fundamental question — what happened to Yerma after we first met her?

Holy Love Ministry
April 26, 2018
Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:
"I am the Father of all ages. I warned you yesterday of Satan's insidious actions in hearts and in the world. Recognizing the evil one is half the battle. Once you recognize evil, you must combat it. Never allow your opinions to be swayed by who believes or disbelieves in issues. Very often the issues themselves should be seen as non-issues in the light of the Truth of My Commandments."
"Allow My Commandments to form the Truth in your hearts, then you will see Satan more clearly. Always side with the Truth in this way. Do not support for any reason untruth."
Read 2 Timothy 1:13-14+
Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus; guard the Truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.
+ Scripture verses asked to be read by God the Father. (Please note: all Scripture given by Heaven refers to the Bible used by the visionary. Ignatius Press – Holy Bible – Revised Standard Version – Second Catholic Edition.)
See related message:
God the Father – "I cannot inoculate you against Satan's attacks – I can only make you aware that evil is always at work"

Ministry spokesman Khaled Aba Al-Khail also said that the shop feminization will continue as planned. The third phase of the feminization of women accessory shops began last October.
It targets shops selling ladies perfumes, shoes, bags, stockings and ready-made garments.
Kiosks selling women accessories will also be fully feminized in addition to sections in malls and supermarkets which sell clothes and other women accessories.
The phase also includes independent small shops which sell wedding dresses, abayas, garments, child-care and other accessories.

The modern architecture and history of the begaining of the 20th century in Rome
The EUR conquers and fascinates for the monumental and elegant Cubist architectures, which are lined with marble and travertine, interact with newly-built buildings, are made of steel and glass to dare a new and contemporary image in EUR.
The EUR has a double soul: of the Cubisum that reflects the ideals of perfection, order and rationality trend in the twenties; and with a strong ancient Roman Heritage revival with it's neoclassic recals of mable statues with the Greek perfection and Roman Grandiosity for the propaganda of the Musolini fascist era .
It is a district with a spectacular character that looks like an immense setting, not only for the eye, but also for the cinema that started with Roberto Rossellini with "Roma città aperta" in 1945, passing through Fellini, until arriving at the Oscar winner "La grande bellezza" by Paolo Sorrentino.
Created by the will of Mussolini, with the Fascist regime to celebrate the colonial enterprises and the twentieth anniversary of the Fascist revolution, EUR standing for Esposizione Universale Roma, with a Universal Exposition planned in 1942, but never took place because the begaining of the world war II.
The idea was to create a new Rome, the capital of Italy and to bring back its glorious past, through the architect Marcello Piacentini, the idea Benito Mussulini wanted to express is this regim Fascism takes shape and becomes a solid architecture … it becomes a Whole city. Lets say as the emperors of Rome had their glorious forum so did Mussolini want one. He did this best to revive Italy, by draning swamps, creating a pension system that you can find in this complex as INAIL, he made museums, convention centers and many innovative inniatives and buildings to represent his doings that our guide will illustrate to you in the EUR -NEOCLASSIC-CUBISUM TOUR

I don't care if you're an alcoholic, a smoker, a drug or sex or eating disorder or caffeine addict.
I don't care if you're black or white or Asian or Native American or Arabic or whatever.
I don't care if you're gay or straight or bisexual or transgender or asexual.
I don't give a darn if you're male or female or intersex.
I care that you're a person. If your race, gender, experiences and ideas shape you into who you are, be they good or bad, then I care about them because I care about what's part of your life.
Sometimes it's easy to get all caught up in the issues - Stop gay pride! Stop celebrating teen mothers! Let's be color blind! Stop the Atheists/Catholics/Muslims/Evangelicals/whoever's-religious-views-don't-mesh-with-mine! And, my personal favorite, stop the judgmental people - by judging them!!!!!! (Obviously, I've never done this one, oh no, not me. Ahem).
But - but - people, you guys. It's so very, very easy to see only the issues, to see only the actions and ideas of people, rather than the people themselves.
It's scary to see people, sure. It's scary to acknowledge that we're terribly similar but with different viewpoints - because what if I'm the one who's wrong? I don't want to think that I might be wrong on what actually matters.
It's scary to acknowledge that if other people are real people, then their experiences and decisions and ideas are actual, as real and concrete as mine.
I think sometimes we, or at least I, dismiss people in the name of truth! and morality! Because truth and morality and goodness matter.
But truth also involves seeing people as real.
Moreover, truth involves love, because love is good, and if I'm just viewing people as issues and problems, that's not loving and it's not true.
God has made those people, same as me, in His image. They're as intricate and paradoxical and valuable as me, and how dare I blaspheme them by reducing them to nothing more than issues?

Thailand has been in the beach business for a long time, with warm water and weather, good food, friendly relaxed people, comfortable accommodation and at low cost compared to the Caribbean, Indian Ocean or Pacific island paradises.
Phuket and Ko Samui are the only beach areas with international airports, which makes them convenient but crowded – particularly with packaged people. However, Thailand's roads are generally excellent and transport is comfortable and reliable, so a flight to Bangkok followed by a bus/minibus or perhaps short flight to the region of your choice is no hardship.
Mae Nam beach, Koh Samui, Thailand
Thai beaches are frequently large, coated by soft white or beige sand, well serviced and in settings that are often strange but mostly comfortable, busy but relaxed.
For calmest waters choose east beaches, Gulf of Thailand, though access is a little less convenient than west coast beaches as Phuket has an airport. The Gulf side exception is Koh Samui which has its own airport and is considering building another (which is a pretty good reason to avoid that island as it's often uncomfortably busy).

All Mine follows on from the whirlwind of success that Lakshane has seen over the last 12-months, including a headline show at Crown Casino, the feature of his debut single Don't Lie through Complex AU and the success of his latest single Let Her Go, which has now spent 3-weeks at #1 on the homemade music charts in Sri Lanka and been licensed to Universal Music Romania.
On top of his personal successes, Lakshane has also spent his time collaborating with renowned DJ/producer R-Cue on their latest single Like I Do, which has now garnered over 175k thousand views and received rotation on commercial stations including Fox FM and JOY FM.
Question: How would you describe your music?
Lakshane: My music is wide in variety. I feel like I can cover quite a few genres… but I've been developing my sound recently and you'll hear that on my EP. I've never been able to drop music that's completely me because I was still developing as an artist. I've now developed both as an artist and producer, and I feel like this new music will define me.
Question: What inspired All Mine?
Lakshane: All Mine is actually a real story explaining the feeling of how I felt when I was starting to see this girl. Everything was easy and refreshing, she was so chilled and it reflected on me as well. The lyrics came naturally and I didn't even put much thought into it, it was the fastest song I've ever written and recorded vocals too!
Question: How does it feel hearing your music on commercial radio?
Lakshane: Honestly it's the greatest feeling. After returning to Australia at 18, I had no idea about the music scene here, didn't even know what Triple J was until I was around 19. And to go from that to my music that I wrote and recorded in my bedroom being on national radio is the greatest feeling of achievement. There's more to come!
Question: Which is your favourite song to perform live and why?
Lakshane: I still love performing my first single Don't Lie, it's got good energy and production, and everyone seems to enjoy it (laughs)!
Question: If you could have anyone, in the world, attend a show, who would it be?
Lakshane: Probably Kanye or Drake, so that I can talk to them and have them sign me to their labels...
Question: Do you prefer performing live or recording?
Lakshane: I love to perform live, it doesn't happen as much as I'd like to. Producing a track as whole is also pretty fun.
Question: What motivates you most when writing music?
Lakshane: To be the best artist in Australia.

Britain's Barmiest Brexiter Comes to Colchester.
David Icke, arguably the world's best-known conspiracy theorist, has come out in favour of leaving the European Union, labelling the bloc a "dictatorship".
In series of tweets and posts on his website, the broadcaster hit out at the "dark suits running your life" and that real reform is "completely absent" in David Cameron's deal.
Huff Post 2016.
More recently.
Yup, George Soros figures in top reptilian rank according to Icke…
Icke still sings the old tunes though,
Tickets for the Colchester feast for mind and spirit cost £30.00…..
"David brings his Brand New 4 Hour Show to Colchester as part of his UK Tour on the back of his Brand New Book "Everything You Need to Know but have Never been Told" which was released in November 2017."
6 Responses
It sounds like he has joined the SWP! Pretty much what the Shadow Chancellor is saying about the deep state. Both a pair of nutters.
Britain's Barmiest Brexiter?
Stretching things a bit.
There is some stiff competition.
Dozy Dianne Abbott for instance?
From the above mentioned reveiw – "the silent assassins of the culture police who dominate the arts"
Giving Icke a run for his money

Flow Sciences' latest product, the Nitrogenema enclosure series, is capable of protecting a user's process by nearly eliminating moisture or oxygen with the flow of inert gas. Far more economical than a cumbersome metal isolator, the Nitrogenema series can meet many application needs.
These enclosures are capable of protecting the process by nearly eliminating moisture or oxygen with the flow of inert gas. Safety of operator and process is accomplished with HEPA filtration, a one-way check valve, and the ability to connect to a house exhaust system.
The Flow Sciences design uses AGS guidelines. The glove box is designed with a 28² depth and comfortable 10² oval glove ports which allow for minimised technician arm, wrist, and shoulder fatigue while maintaining a controlled environment.
The Nitrogen Metering System (FS1501) is designed to conserve nitrogen. It features trending graphs that display RH%, O2, and temperature. There are two adjustable flow rates one for high flow purge and the other for low flow to maintain. The nitrogen saving auto shut off activates when the set point of RH% or O2 is reached. Audio and visual alarms trigger when outside the set point range.
The Nitrogenema Glove Boxes are available in 3', 4' and 5' widths and two exhaust options.

iPhone 6 – Retina HD Display
iPhone 6 isn't simply bigger – it's better in every way. Larger, yet dramatically thinner. More powerful, but remarkably power efficient. With a smooth metal surface that seamlessly meets the new Retina HD Display. It's one continuous form where hardware and software function in perfect unison, creating a new generation of iPhone that's better by any measure.
The Biggest iOS Release Ever
iOS 10 is the world's most advanced mobile operating system. And with incredible new capabilities and features designed to make the most of a larger display, iOS 10 doesn't just work seamlessly with iPhone 6. It makes every experience feel bigger and better.
Everything within Reach
By creating iPhone 6 and iOS 10 together, we optimized the software to enhance the physical design. iOS swipe gestures were designed to be more fluid across the seamless form, making it easy to navigate iPhone with one hand. With new features like Reachability you can interact with the larger screen in different ways, too. Simply double touch the Home button and the entire screen shifts down closer to your thumb. And to easily navigate Safari or Mail, swipe left to right across the screen to go backward, or swipe right to left to go forward. With the new continuous surface of iPhone, all your gestures now feel smoother than ever.
We also thought about how you use your iPhone every day and redesigned the buttons to make it even easier to use. Elongated volume buttons are integrated into the thinner profile, outlined to make them effortless to find by touch. And the Sleep/Wake button has a new home on the side of the device to put it comfortably within reach. The result is an experience that's even more intuitive.
iPhone at it's Largest. And Thinnest
Developing an iPhone with a larger, more advanced display meant pushing the edge of design. From the seamless transition of glass and metal to the streamlined profile, every detail was carefully considered to enhance your experience. So while it's display is larger, iPhone 6 feels just right.
The Camera that Changed Photos Now does the Same for Video
More people take more photos with iPhone than with any other camera. And now the iSight camera has a new sensor with Focus Pixels and new video features, like 1080p HD at 60 fps, slo-mo at 240 fps, and time-lapse video mode. So you will have more reasons to capture more moments on video, too.
Hugely Powerful. Enormously Efficient
Built on 64-bit desktop-class architecture, the new A8 chip delivers more power, even while driving a larger display. The M8 motion co- processor efficiently gathers data from advanced sensors and a new barometer. And with increased battery life, iPhone 6 lets you do more, for longer than ever.
Not Just a Bigger Display. A Better Display
It's one thing to make a bigger display. It's something else entirely to make a bigger Multi Touch display with brilliant colors and higher contrast at even wider viewing angles. But that's exactly what we did with the new Retina HD Display.
Security. Right at your Fingertip
The breakthrough Touch ID technology lets you securely access your iPhone with the perfect password: your fingerprint. You can also use it to approve purchases from iTunes, iBooks, and the App Store without having to enter your password.
Faster Wireless. Far and Wide
A superfast connection can make you feel like the whole world is within reach. That's why iPhone 6 has faster LTE download speeds. That's also why it has more LTE bands than any other smartphone. iPhone 6 supports more advanced wireless technologies to boost performance and help you connect to the things and people that matter most.
Higher Contrast
Rather than using traditional methods to create the higher-resolution Retina HD Display, we developed an advanced process of photo alignment. This involves using UV light to precisely position the display's liquid crystals so they lie exactly where they should. Better-aligned crystals deliver a superior viewing experience, with deeper blacks and sharper text.
An Innovative Seamless Design
The first thing you notice when you hold iPhone 6 is how great it feels in your hand. The cover glass curves down around the sides to meet the anodized aluminum enclosure in a remarkable, simplified design. There are no distinct edges. No gaps. Just a smooth, seamless bond of metal and glass that feels like one continuous surface.
The Technology Behind Touch ID
There is a lot of technology at work below the surface of the Home button. Touch it and the surrounding stainless steel ring detects your finger and wakes the capacitive touch sensor. The laser-cut sapphire crystal surface of the button then directs the image of your finger to the sensor, which reads beneath the outer layers of your skin to get a detailed fingerprint. Software then reads the ridges of your fingerprint and finds the match to unlock your phone.

I took a little detour with my last post, because I just HAD to tell y'all about my vacation. Now on the tale end of one weird post, comes another. My gossip post starts with a "prophetic" dream, so if any of you are leery of my Charismatic ways, now would be a good time to bolt.
Is anyone still here?
A few weeks ago I had a dream. Not just my typical chased by a giant Twinkie dream, but the kind where you wake up and think. hmm, I wonder if God is trying to tell me something.
In my dream I was surrounded by my friends, and every time I opened my mouth to talk, these big black bugs would crawl out. Gross huh. I would go around telling everyone that it was the enemy attacking, but all my friends would just laugh and say "oh it's nothing don't worry about it". Hmm, big black bugs in my mouth is nothing? Whatever, it was a dream.
When I woke up, I could remember the dream so vividly. All day long it bothered me. It really had the flavor of a prophetic dream (which I have had on RARE occasions). I prayed that God would reveal the meaning if it was from him, then tried to dismiss it when I didn't quickly hear an answer.
Last week while I was at the gym, a woman from my old church was on the stairmaster (aka butt cheek torture device) next to me. I turned to make small talk and after a few minutes she started to open up about the pain she was experiencing at church. She was being gossiped about in a BIG way, and was suffering at the mouths of a few busy bodies. Her sadness effected me, but what affected me more was the fact she stuck around out of obedience to God. She got all of her strength to show up each Sunday and face her offnders by her complete and desperate reliance on God.
Now here is the "ouch" part. I will admit in front of all of you, that I too participated in her slander. A friend of mine has an intense hatred of her, and after awhile I fell pray to the malicious venom of Gossip, and got sucked in.
As this poor woman spoke about the gossip being spread, I suddenly flashed back to my dream, and at that moment, God revealed my dream. The bugs were Gossip. I was allowing the enemy to attack others through my own mouth. At that very moment I repented silently in my heart. I want to repent ... I WILL repent to her face, but I'm going to need prayer and courage first. Would YOU pray for that for me?
My drive home was filled with epiphany as I realized how I have allowed the enemy to use my words over this last year. I once took pride in the fact I didn't participate in Gossip, and now here I was repenting for a YEAR of "foul" words. A YEAR!
I now recommit to stand up strong against gossip. No more does the enemy have free access to my mouth. I pray that the Lord will build back up the relationships I have torn down, and I pray that my conviction helps those around me turn from this spirit of criticism.
They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their words like deadly arrows. Psalm 64:3
With words of hatred they surround me; they attack me without cause. Psalm 109:3
you have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth. Proverbs 6:2
The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood, but the speech of the upright rescues them. Proverbs 12:6
Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Proverbs 12:18
The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man's inmost parts. Proverbs 18:8
Words from a wise man's mouth are gracious, but a fool is consumed by his own lips. Ecclesiastes 10:12
Their lives became full of every kind of wickedness, sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, and gossip. Romans 1:29

The Power of Our Words Part 2 :Gossip
I took a little detour with my last post, because I just HAD to tell y'all about my vacation. Now on the tale end of one weird post, comes another. My gossip post starts with a "prophetic" dream, so if any of you are leery of my Charismatic ways, now would be a good time to bolt.

Thank you for this post. I think most of us could put ourselves in your shoes here at some time in our Christian lives. It's always good to have a reminder of how powerful our words are, and how much they can hurt others.

I too have had "warning" dreams like that. Warning me of others' behavior and my own tendency to get hooked into something that isn't in my best interest.
Wandered over from David's place. Nice post.

Oh I just praise God He has brought this to your attention and that you have a teachable enough spirit to receive it and repent! I know of another woman in who refuses to repent and continues in her words that lack discreation. I just pray for healing between you & the person you need to face, and the courage of Gods Spirit to be with you. It is so refreshing to read what you shared today on the heels of the devastation the person I know is causing--you have encouraged mt to pray for a change of heart and for God to open her eyes like He has yours-praise God! Be blessed, He is at work in your life.

Uh, thanks for the slap....it woke me up. I'm convicted right now. I can think of one person in particular who actually bothers me so much I'd rather not see her at all.
I can explain away MY part by telling you that she's mean and hurtful to others and pious and often rude.
BUT. ahhhh. my big butt.
I should learn to keep my mouth shut, 'cause you're right....the bugs are downright gross.

another great post Karlie. I am right there with you in being convicted about gossip. I will pray for you and your conversation with the woman at the gym. What a powerful way for God to show you what He wants you to work on. I needed to read those verses tonight- I am ticked off at my husband and needed a reminder to keep my words in check!

What an amazing post! I'll be praying for you to have the strength and humility to confess that. Isn't God amazing??!!
I went through a phase where I was researching gossip. It started when I began to notice that prayer requests sounded too much like thinly veiled gossip. It's one of the ugliest things in the churches and we've all been guilty of it. =/

Excellent post! I love how you put scripture at the end in order to reinforce just how important it is to guard our tongues...my hubby and I are going through some things at our church now and it is very very easy to slip into slandering the people who are allowing Satan to use them too cause discord in the church but instead we need to stand against Satan not the people ;)

Wow for so many reasons. First, God is SO gracious in his discipline of us, isn't he?! And then, you the fact that you humbled yourself and confessed. Sounds like you already have quite a large amt. of strength in you, lady! I have a feeling that when you DO confess to that woman, you'll make a friend

I thank you so much from the bottom of my very bruised, very broken heart for your supportive comments. I also thank you for reading my blog.
I'm having absolutely not one symptom of threatened miscarriage yet, not like my last one where we caught it in progress. I've chosen to wait for God to start the process naturally, and have no idea what to expect or when to expect it. I see the doctor tomorrow.
I had no idea that you had had a miscarriage. My heart also goes out to you. No matter how long ago it was, they're still our babies and don't we always live with them in our hearts? I want to say I'm so sorry that you had to go through that.....
I loved the verse that you left for me too....my bloggy friends have been the best. I know I can survive because I am pressed but not crushed, persecuted not abandoned, struck down but not destroyed, I am blessed beyond the curse for His promise will endure, and His joy's gonna be my strength....though the sorrow may last for the night, His joy comes in the morning.
Again, thank you so much.

[School in Media] June
Joint Endeavors to Develop Fintech Talent
Xinhua News Agency, Wen Wei Po and Mirage News reported on a Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) signed by HKUST, the China Banking Association, Shenzhen University and the China Construction Bank University in June, to co-develop the first fintech qualification framework in China.

The City of Wasco is located in central California outside of Bakersfield.
The Situation
The City of Wasco owned a previous landfill site, an under-utilized brownfield development. The city wished to be part of the continuing transition of California's grid to clean energy, and to do so in way which benefited the city's finances. The project required overcoming a variety of challenges including:
- Challenges specific to building on a former landfill site;
- Close collaboration with city staff; and
- A tight construction schedule.
The Solution
Siemens developed the project under California's Renewable Energy Self-Generation Bill Credit Transfer (RES-BCT) program. This program allows a local government with one or more eligible renewable generating facilities to export energy to the grid and receive generation credits to benefitting accounts of the same local government. Siemens chose HOLT Renewables to build the project. They cited our extensive experience in California and with local governments.
The Success
5,346 Silfab 345 watt panels and 27 ABB Trio 50 KW inverters power the 1.8 MW array installed by HOLT Renewables. So as not to disturb the soil, we mounted the panels on a GameChange ballasted racking system, surrounded by a ballasted protective fence.
The arrays produced 3,134,680 kilowatt hours in year one of operation. This offset energy consumed by various buildings operated by the city.

Although They Are Labeled "Anti-Vaxxers" They Are Really "Anti-BigPharma," and "Anti-Globalist…"
And THAT is why Globalist Big Pharma went to WHO and "Their-Paid-For-Friends" in the US Congress…
Opinion By "Deplorable" Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen
Time for a laugh…
Big Pharma has asked the World Health Organization (WHO) and the US Congress for help to rein in the "Anti-Vaxxer" Movement. And the "Anti-Vaxxer" Movement is laughing about that.
The world-wide "Anti-Vaxxer" movement has arrived. It is now so big, and so powerful, and SO ANGRY, that Big Pharma, and the other globalists, have brought out their big guns to try and stop it or at least slow it down. Why? Because EVERYTHING they have done to try and stop the movement so far has failed terribly, or worked the opposite way, making the "Anti-Vaxxer" Movement even bigger, and far stronger yet. It is everywhere, and its members are NOT SHY, and deliver their message openly, EVERYWHERE in public.
And what exactly is the "Anti-Vaxxer" Movement's message? It is this:
"There is ABSOLUTELY no question that vaccines damage children – THEY DO. Every time. It is just an order of magnitude. A parent can choose to damage their child a little or a lot – but with vaccines there is ALWAYS damage. The more vaccines the more damage. Read the package inserts and choose how much damage you want to inflict on your child."
Why is the "Anti-Vaxxer" Movement so powerful? I am about to tell you why. And it will not surprise you.
Frankly, the pro-vax campaign is DOOMED. Vaccines are on their way out.
And, better yet, it is not likely that Big Pharma will survive.
How did this happen" How did we get to this wonderful place?
I am about to tell you…
It started in Sacramento, California, the State Capitol in mid 2015. Oh, there was an "anti-vax" movement before that, and it was loud and effective – to a point. But it was one thing that acted as the catalyst for the explosive growth of the movement. Keep reading…
Big Pharma, wearing their "vaccines are wonderful" cloak, navigated their ships full of money into Sacramento, California in 2015 where their already elected California operative, Senator Richard Pan MD, was waiting to introduce Senate Bill 277 – legislation to force all of California's children to be poisoned with up to seventy-four (74) "Made in China" death pus tubelets in order to go to school.
Big Pharma easily won that first round, passing SB 277 EFFORTLESSLY, for, as everyone knows, virtually every Democrat, in any, and all political offices in California, has Big Pharma managing their office, and directing their policies. They don't even hide it.
In California, not only does Big Pharma direct the California legislature, but when Pharma's Public Relations (PR) group wrote up a letter, supposedly from California US Congressman Adam Schiff, to FaceBook's Mark Zuckerberg, demanding that "Anti-Vaxxers" be banned from FaceBook, Schiff was immediately available, even taking time off from his "Hate-Trump" campaign, to talk to liberal media…
Why so much attention now?

I recently had dinner with one of my girlfriends. She is in the process of menopause and trying to lose weight. Sounds impossible, right? Well, it isn't. This woman has tried every diet that's out there, including starvation, to lose weight. You know what that means, right? It means she's really confused her metabolism which in turn results in a longer process for weight loss.
My friend must have said at least 10 times throughout dinner, "Now that I can eat again". It was astounding to me. So many people have trouble grasping the fact that in order to lose weight you must eat five to six meals a day!!
We also discussed the exercise component of her program and how she now realizes that in order for her to reach her goals she must exercise. She explained that through the years if she couldn't exercise first thing in the morning that she couldn't any other time of day.
Now, her attitude is much more flexible. If she is unable to exercise first thing in the morning, she makes it a priority to fit it in during another free time in her day.
This conversation was so enlightening and inspiring to me. It fills me with joy to see someone who has struggled with their weight for so long finally find their way.
And that's exactly what we do at Your Best Fit. We help people make it realistic to lose weight and be as fit as they want.
It really isn't that hard. There are just some basic principles to incorporate into your daily routine. You must, however, truly have the desire. If you really want to lose the weight you will. If you're not fully committed, you won't.
If you need help, whether you are local to Delray Beach, FL or in another state, we can help. Simply give us a call at 561-866-9068 to schedule a complimentary in person or phone consultation.

If you've been involved in a car wreck, your biggest concern needs to be your safety. After assessing your health, you need to consider the damages done to your property. Doing so can get you the compensation you need to fix your car. Once you have secured the scene of the crash, have moved vehicles out of the way of traffic, and you've been examined for injuries, take the following 6 steps to determine car accident damages:
- Address All Medical Concerns
Immediately after a car accident, you should call an ambulance if someone needs medical attention. Be sure to obtain copies of all treatment records and involved costs, so you can use them when you file your claim. These documents serve as evidence and can factor into the compensation you receive.
It's also wise to get in touch with a law firm that can streamline this overwhelming process. If you or someone you love has been a victim of careless driving get in touch with a reliable, aggressive personal injury attorney like Dennis Hernandez & Associates, P.A. They are able to help with any and all damages to get you the best outcome possible.
- Take Pictures
Your next step needs to be to take pictures of all the damages – both interior and exterior. Be sure to take some close-up photos as well as some far away ones. This will give the insurance company a better idea of the extent of the damage. Also, get some shots of the location and license plates of all involved vehicles.
- Personal Property
There may also be some personal property like a laptop, infant car seat, or other valuables that were damaged aside from the car itself. Take note of all the items that you'll need to replace as a result of the accident. This also includes anything that you were wearing during the accident like a watch or purse. (It does not include items that may have been lost or stolen during the scene).
- Write a Description
After an accident, when you get a moment, write down what happened. You will need this for a police report. If you're not planning on filing one, you can hand over this report to your insurance company. Doing this sooner than later is a good way to keep all details current and accurate.
- Don't Admit Guilt
At the time of an accident, you need to follow the protocol. This means taking notes on the situation, exchanging contact information, and cooperating with the police. Insurance company adjusters will work later to identify which party is at guilt. If you're guilty, you'll need to file a "first-person" claim. If you're not guilty, you'll need to file a "third-party" claim.
- Call Your Insurance
The last step in this tedious process is to give your insurance provider a call. You want to report all the details of the crash including the following:
- Time and location of the crash
- The driver of the vehicle
- Vehicle on the policy that was involved
- Contact information for other drivers involved
The insurance company also may want the police report number if you have one. Then, you will be given a claim number, which you need to write down.
When someone is driving recklessly on the road, not only are they exposing themselves to danger, but drivers around them. A careless act can result in injuries, damaged property, and unfortunately, even death.
If you have been a victim of a car wreck, take these steps to determine the damages you can claim for your vehicle and other property. This will increase your chances of receiving the best outcome possible.

After bringing this dip to two parties and getting rave reviews, it is now in my top recipe folder. And it's made with spaghetti squash, so it's good for you, being a vegetable and all.
- 1 spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus 3 Tbsp
- 2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
- salt, pepper, garlic
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease a baking dish. Cut spaghetti squash in half length-wise and scoop the seeds out. Place spaghetti squash cut side down on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake 40-45 minutes, until soft when fork is inserted.
- Use fork to shred spaghetti squash and scoop out, placing in a mixing bowl.
- Add butter to squash and stir until butter melts. Add mayo, 1 cup parmesan, Monterey Jack cheese, and seasoning to taste, and stir until well blended. Pur into prepared baking dish and sprinkle with 3 Tbsp parm.
- Bake at 350 for 20 minutes, until cheese melts.
Okay, so I guess not incredibly healthy…

The moment it was announced that Christopher Hitchens was sick with cancer, eulogies began spilling into print and from the podium. No one wanted to deny the possibility that he would recover, of course, but neither could we let the admiration we felt for him go unexpressed. It is a cliché to say that he was one of a kind and none can fill his shoes—but Hitch was and none can. In his case not even the most effusive tributes ring hollow. There was simply no one like him.

i am enough.
10 November 2015 – I witnessed a peaceful protect outside the metropolitan police station in downtown Reykjavík. The locals are generally unhappy with the way the police handled this highly publicised case of 2 suspected rapists who managed to escape from the country since they were not taken into custody.
Eggs were thrown and a number of protestors stepped forward, demanding to know why the system is agonisingly slow for rape suvivors, and more efforts should be done to encourage men to combat rape culture and the patriachy.
Apparently the police spokesperson intervened to explain that they are doing their best (I'm sorry but even I am a little skeptical with this textbook reply) and that they just started a specialised unit to tackle these deep-seated issues. Of course the protestors got angrier and demanded the police to explain why justice was not done to the suspected rapists.
I've concluded never to mess with the people of Iceland. Their human spirit is exemplary.

Our future is in the hands of our young people. Today's middle schoolers are our workforce in just 5-10 years.
It's clear and simple, education lays the foundation to creating a competitive, prosperous community. It creates a prepared workforce and college-going student population. It inspires teachers to do their very best with opportunity to grow in their profession. It attracts businesses and families interested in living somewhere with good schools. Families move to Cabarrus County because of the great quality of life of which our Cabarrus County Schools play a major role. Many of us stayed or returned to Cabarrus County so our kids could have the same high-quality public school education we enjoyed. Our district has grown to be the 8th largest in North Carolina with more than 33,000 students.
But what's really amazing, is that Cabarrus County Schools receives one of the lowest funding levels per student in the state. That's where we come in. CCEF raises money for the purpose of funding needs that cannot be met through the schools' operating budgets.
As a key partner of Cabarrus County Schools, we invite you to invest in our students so they are provided the best opportunities to succeed in the future and make our district even more desirable!
