Dubai, a land of opportunity has welcomed people from different walks of life. The city of cultural diversity has incredible employment opportunities to offer, much of which can be owed to its growing economy and administration's vision of making the city as one of the best to live in. Positive effects of growth in economy can be seen in almost all sectors including health, technology, marketing, education, retail etc. This combined with the fact that the city offers tax-free living has attracted a lot of expats who are taking up lucrative offers in the field of health and education.
Health industry, in particular, in Dubai has witnessed a tremendous growth. This can be explained by the fact that people with better jobs are in better shape economically, and hence have elevated their lifestyles which in turn has resulted in healthy living. Another factor that has helped the cause of health industry is government's stringent steps to revamp the health care in the country. With more opportunities available than ever before, a lot of national students and aspiring professionals are choosing to enter health care market. Expats from all over the world have also joined the trend, and are migrating to Dubai by taking up jobs in health care.
Following is a brief summary of factors that have led to the unprecedented growth in the health sector and hence has attracted nationals and expats to accept a wide range of hospital jobs in Dubai:
· The Ministry of Health's Hospital Sector has launched the Hospitals and Health Clinics Assessment Programs which will upgrade the level of country's health care services. This initiative by the ministry will appraise the performance of the hospitals and other health care clinics operating under its belt. Additionally, it will judge on the basis of the advancement and necessary improvements made in the areas of different services rendered in the listed health care centers including waiting time for the service offered by the hospitals, level of patient satisfaction, the rate of patient staying in and last but not the least the success rate of the operations undertaken. This initiative will benefit the public as it will augment credibility and transparency through straightforward communication with the members of the community and public will be informed about the results of health service providers of the country. The aforementioned programs will step-up the medical tourism in UAE thereby, improving its status as a rapidly developing destination for the unified health –care services. Therefore, this positive drive by the Health Ministry will revamp the quality standards, professionalism, safety, efficiency in the hospitals and health care providers leading to the growth in the health care jobs in the country.
· In the first half of this year, Dubai attracted around 260,000 medical tourists and the earnings generated in the course of this phase were about Dh 1 billion. This development helped the country to earn the prestigious Destination of the year award at the 10th World Health Tourism Congress. This extensive congress session that was a two day long session was conducted at the acclaimed medical center-Mohammad Bin Rashid Academic Medical Centre in Dubai Health Care City (DHCC). The attendance rate was high as affluent personalities participated including ministers, medical and health professionals, senior government officials and other tourism industry collaborators from over 80 different countries have attended this occasion. The peculiarities obtained by the medical tourists are dental, aesthetics, orthopedics and other preventive health and fertility treatments. The key influencers of high traffic of medical tourist are the charm of the country coupled with probability of high quality medical and health maintenance services. The record numbers seen in the first six months of the year has helped establish Dubai as one of the most sought after health care destinations, thereby affecting the industry positively and generating more job opportunities.
· Another step taken by the Ministry of Health to bolster Dubai's place as a medical destination in the world is the proposal to reduce prices of around 188 innovative medicines from 1st January 2016. The ministry has decided to slash the prices of around seventy-seven percent of the medicines for central nervous system; five percent for lethal disease and immune system depression medicines; one percent for immune system disorders, eye care and vaccine; eight percent for gynecological, urologic disorders and obstetrical diseases and around four percent for nose, ear, throat diseases, nutritional medicines and other blood disorders diseases. Ministry of health has taken smart steps to help nationals and visiting patients to get the best treatment at decent prices, and hence has taken similar initiatives to slash prices in the past. A brief history of this initiative includes - the first initiative was for cutting down the prices of 565 innovative drugs followed by 115 in the second phase, 6,791 in the third phase, 207 in fourth and 280 in the fifth phase. Additionally, in this push around twenty-seven global pharmaceuticals companies and local, regional and international drug makers were involved and it was made sure that no pharmacy, x in number, violates the prices as set up by the health ministry. Initiatives like this will not only benefit the patients who are affected by chronic, neurological, cardiac, viral and cancer diseases, but also strengthen Dubai's position as a leading health care destination.
All in all, the aforementioned health strategies envisage the positive sentiments in the health care industry, which will further boost the hospital jobs in Dubai. This progress in the job structure along with government's crucial role will place aspirants in an opportune position to transform their career in this developed city of the world.

The World is the title of the heartbreaking, staggeringly beautiful new film by the young Mainland Chinese director Jia Zhang-ke — no matter that most of the film's characters are terminally landlocked. They're employees at a tourist-trap theme park wherein one can traverse five continents in the span of a 15-minute monorail ride and "see the world without ever leaving Beijing." Visitors pose for snapshots before a mock Leaning Tower of Pisa and a Manhattan skyline that still contains the World Trade Center, while a young dancer named Tao (the eminently watchable Zhao Tao), who performs in the park's Bollywood-style musical showcases, dreams of someday making a real escape to some faraway land. If Jia's first three features (Xiao Wu, Platform and Unknown Pleasures) all focused on disaffected provincial youths, in and around the filmmaker's hometown of Shaanxi, as they rebelled against their parents' communist legacy and gravitated towards China's new capitalism, the wry revelation of The World is that even the big city is no guard against emptiness and yearning. Despite having simulated Eiffel Towers and Egyptian pyramids at their fingertips, the denizens of The World feel no less trapped and uncertain than their rural predecessors. So it may be that the next logical step for Jia is to make a film about those Chinese who do leave to seek happiness on foreign shores, and whether or not they find it.
Michel Subor in Claire Denis' L'Intrus
Jia's curiosity about worlds at once exotic and all-too-familiar was reflected in several of the most compelling new films unveiled during this year's Toronto International Film Festival, films that chose to see the world not as ever-smaller slices of a pie but rather as one surprisingly close-knit human community. Certainly, that was true of Claire Denis' The Intruder, which gradually works the story of a grizzled recluse (the sublime Michel Subor) seeking a black-market heart transplant into a dreamlike contemplation of intrusions personal, political and geographical, and of the cruel folly whereby people and nations try to seal themselves off from such "violations." It was also the case with Jean-Luc Godard's Our Music, which follows a filmmaker (Godard, playing himself) as he travels to a literary conference in post-war Sarajevo, but which is no less about Israel, Afghanistan and Iraq — indeed, the entire history of human warfare and remembrance — than it is about the conflict in Bosnia. And last but not least, there was Greek master director Theo Angelopoulos — a filmmaker for whom what's past is always prologue — whose enormously moving The Weeping Meadow revisits the years between the exodus of Odessa's Greek population through to the end of World War II as seen through the eyes of a woman who becomes tragically entangled in the historical events unfolding around her. The film is promised as the first in a projected trilogy that will follow the characters on a journey of Homeric proportions across Europe and, finally, to New York City.
That glorious quartet alone would have been enough to convince skeptics that Toronto's status as the most important film showcase in North America remains unchallenged. Yet elsewhere in this year's lineup, one could find Alexander Payne's extraordinary Sideways, as rare and delicate as the Pinot noir grapes about which it so eloquently rhapsodizes; Im Kwon-taek's uncommonly vivacious gangster picture, Low Life, marked by its fleet fight sequences and an ethereal back lot look worthy of Warner Brothers in the '30s; and Mysterious Skin, the strongest film in years by queer-cinema bad boy Greg Araki, finding in America's ceaseless fascination with alien abductions a surprisingly affecting metaphor for the violation of childhood innocence. In terms of sheer timeliness, however, little in Toronto this year could rival Michael Cimino's Heaven's Gate, revived in a new print meticulously restored from the original negative and, more than 20 years after its initial release, still a more pungent study of the betrayal of the American Dream than Michael Moore could likely wrap his head around.

Our friend, Zack Kopplin, has been getting some terrific press coverage lately. For example, see Activist says creationism is taught in 20 Louisiana private schools that could enroll voucher students in the New Orleans Times-Picayune. It says:
Louisiana anti-creationism advocate Zack Kopplin has launched a national database of 300 schools that are partly publicly funded and teach creationism, the belief that all living organisms originate from divine creation, as in the biblical account. The site, Say No to Creationist Vouchers, lists 20 such schools in Louisiana.
Kopplin, a college student, runs the state's most prominent anti-creationism group, Repeal the Louisiana Science Education Act.
Here's another at the MSNBC website: Creationism spreading in schools, thanks to vouchers, in which Zack says:
We must to speak out to prevent funding these creationist schools with our public money. We must speak out and end these existing creationist voucher programs. As Americans, we must do the right thing and teach our students evidence-based science.
All of this is too much to bear for Ken Ham (ol' Hambo) — described in the Cast of Characters section of our Intro page. He's written a long, furious, foaming-at-the-mouth rant at the Answers in Genesis (AIG) website: The Legacy of Brainwashing. Here are some excerpts, with bold font added by us:
Students are being brainwashed with evolutionary ideas in almost all public schools and museums, and they are expected to accept it uncritically. We've made this point many times over the years, but a recent news story has made the brainwashing even more obvious. In 2008, Louisiana passed a bill …
We know all about it. Back in 2008 Louisiana disgraced itself by being the first state in the US to pass an anti-science, anti-evolution, pro-creationism "Academic Freedom" law modeled after the Academic Freedom Act promoted by the Discovery Institute. It encourages the use of unspecified "supplemental materials" — wink, wink — in science classes. The law was enacted notwithstanding a landmark decision from the US Supreme Court striking down Louisiana's earlier creationism law (see: Edwards v. Aguillard). Let's read on:
Well, a 19-year-old student at Rice University, Zack Kopplin, is on a mission to repeal that law. He is being praised by the secular world for his ambition, as evidenced in a recent article about him. Atheistic evolutionists do not want any talk of "critiquing" or "thinking critically" about evolutionary ideas, because evolution is their way of explaining life without God, which is why we call evolution a religion. Despite their claims to the contrary, atheists use evolution as their religion to replace God. … Atheists blindly hold to evolution because of their rejection of Christ. Zack Kopplin has seemingly declined to talk about his personal beliefs about God, but many atheists have basically claimed him as one of their own … .
Poor ol' Hambo. Then he goes on at great length, paragraph after paragraph, blasting away at Zack and evolution. There's just too much of it. The best we can do is give you a few choice examples:
First, Kopplin makes the assumption that science has to be "naturalistic." Now, there's no reason that science must be naturalistic — this is simply an assertion made by Kopplin and atheistic evolutionists!
Right — why can't science be supernatural? After all, creation science is supernatural, and we all know how successful that's been. Hambo continues:
What's more, Kopplin—like almost all evolutionists — confuses historical science with operational (observational) science.
We're not going to bother debunking that one again (see The Lessons of Tiktaalik). Then he quotes Zack about the damage creationism does because creationist kids can't get decent jobs in the real world of science. Hambo doesn't like that. He says:
We're now seeing this sort of claim more and more from evolutionists. They, like Kopplin, believe that if a student is taught or believes in biblical creation, he will never be able to understand or achieve anything in the realm of science. And yet, here at Answers in Genesis and the Creation Museum, we have a number of researchers on staff with earned PhDs in their respective fields of science.
Yes, and the best that Hambo's staff can do is become creationist apologists and tour guides at Hambo's creation museum. That's a great use for their science degrees. Here's more:
… Kopplin is also attacking state government school voucher programs across the U.S., claiming that because of vouchers, belief in biblical creation is being promulgated.
Kopplin may be offended at the very thought of government money from school vouchers going to schools that teach biblical creation, but we find it equally offensive that tax dollars go to fund the teaching of the religion of evolution. Why should Christians, who want their children educated in biblical creation, be forced to fund public schools and secular museums that teach evolution?
Uh, maybe because it's the job of public schools to teach science, and not creationism? Then, in a desperate bid for publicity, Hambo challenges Zack to a debate:
Would Kopplin, obviously an intelligent young man, consider a debate with one of our scientists to look at the question of whether God's Word, starting in Genesis, is true? However, we suspect he will use the same rhetoric used by most evolutionists when responding to such an invitation, and claim creationists should not be debated because they are not "real scientists." We could probably even draft his refusal letter for him based on what other secularists have written when they have refused to debate a creation scientist.
We've long maintained that no one should ever debate a creationist. See Debating Creationists is Dumber Than Creationism. We're skipping a lot of Hambo's rant, but we'll give you this from his conclusion:
What a sad state of affairs to see a young man who desires so strongly that generations of children and teens would believe they are just animals who developed by natural processes. If we really are just animals, why is violence, murder, cheating, or lying wrong?
Is Hambo suggesting that Zack is a lying, cheating murderer? Sounds like it. Here's the last sentence:
This example should be a warning to parents. Kopplin is a product of the secular education system — a system that is also indoctrinating generations of children from church homes. We urge parents to recognize that their kids need to be rescued from this evil age.
There's not much we can say, so we'll end with this: Keep up the good work, Zack!

Deadly Image by Tamelia Tumlin was a most enjoyable book that kept me sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. The author did a very good job of developing the plot, characters, dialogue, and action scenes. In most mysteries I can usually figure out who did the crime but the author had me guessing to the very end, in fact I was completely surprised when the identity of the kidnapper was revealed. There were many twists and turns in the story providing one surprise after another. I could not put the book down once I started reading for I just had to know what happened next. I do not want to say more for I do not want to give away the ending of the story.I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a good mystery with a lot of romance thrown into the mixture and who also wants to read Christian fiction.

A Dragon's Seduction I absolutely loved this book. It was under 100 pages, but it packed a wallop. As a first in this series, it's guaranteed to be a hit. I can't wait until the next one comes out. I just hope that I am lucky enough to review it.

Utah Wildlife News Release
Lake trout limit increases starting Jan. 1
Manila — Plenty of waters close to your home will provide great ice fishing this winter. Those waters might draw lots of anglers, though.
If you're looking for some space, consider a trip to Flaming Gorge Reservoir. In addition to great fishing and room to stretch, the reservoir is surrounded by spectacular scenery. And starting Jan. 1, the lake trout limit at the reservoir will increase to 12 lake trout a day. Only one the lake trout can be over 28 inches, though.
(The current lake trout limit is eight fish, with only one over 28 inches long.)
Randy Oplinger, sport fisheries coordinator for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, encourages you to take advantage of the opportunity and keep your limit of smaller lake trout. He says a growing population of smaller lake trout is causing problems for anglers. "The smaller lake trout are competing with kokanee salmon and rainbow trout for food," he says.
Oplinger says the competition is affecting both the number and size of kokanee and rainbows in the reservoir. "Kokanee and rainbows are the two fish lake trout prey on," he says. "If we can reduce the number of smaller lake trout, they'll be more kokanee and rainbows for anglers to catch and for the remaining lake trout to eat. Keeping your limit of smaller lake trout should produce bigger lake trout to catch in the future."
Oplinger also reminds you that you must keep any burbot you catch.
Fishing tips
Plenty of lake trout up to 25 inches long are waiting for you at this scenic reservoir on the Utah, Wyoming border. Ryan Mosley, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources' lead aquatic biologist at Flaming Gorge, says getting a lake map and studying it thoroughly is the first step to catching them.
The area you'll want to study first is the north end of the reservoir, between the confluence (where the Black's Fork and Green river arms meet in the reservoir) south to the area called Buckboard. "The best lake trout fishing usually happens at the start of the ice fishing season," Mosley says, "and that's the area that freezes first."
As you study the map, look for contours, main channel points and flats that are adjacent to the main river channel and in water that's 50 to 80 feet deep. "Those are the areas you'll want to fish," Mosley says.
Before you head to the reservoir, make sure you have an electronic fish finder that will help you spot lake trout under the ice. You'll also want a medium action fishing rod with a reel spooled with fishing line that's 8-pound test or stronger.
To get your offering down fast, use ¼- to ½-ounce lures. Various jigging spoons, swim baits and jigs work, but the traditional go-to lure is a white tube jig that's 2½ to 3 inches long. "Always place a small piece of sucker or chub meat on the lure's hook," he says. "The meat will entice fish to bite your lure."
Mosley says lake trout are usually found close to the bottom. "That's not always the case, though," he says. "Sometimes, they'll suspend just 15 to 20 feet under the ice. When you see fish on your fish finder, don't be afraid to reel your lure up to the fish."
When fishing through the ice at Flaming Gorge, you can use up to six fishing poles or tip-ups. Mosley uses a variety of techniques, from aggressive jigging to subtle jigging with lots of pauses. Another tactic he often uses involves at least two poles. After placing a small piece of sucker or chub meat on the hook of a lure, he lowers the lure close to the bottom and then lets the pole sit still. In a second hole drilled close to the first hole, he lowers a jig to the bottom and starts jigging it.
"This technique draws fish in and gives them a couple of options: they can take the lure I'm jigging or, if they're not in an active feeding mood, they can easily take the lure that's sitting nearby and isn't moving," he says.
Mosley says lake trout can be finicky. "But once you find them," he says, "you can do really well. Let the fish 'tell' you what they want by trying different techniques."
If you're fishing with more than one line at Flaming Gorge, please remember that your name must be attached to each line. Also, if you're from Utah, but you want fish on the Wyoming side of the reservoir, make sure you have either a Wyoming reciprocal fishing stamp or a Wyoming fishing license.

NewTeeVee Live Breakout Video Star: Lucas 'Fred' Cruikshank
We can safely say that 15-year-old Lucas Cruikshank, creator of the wildly popular Fred character on YouTube, is the youngest innovator that Giga Omni Media has had on its stage. Cruikshank, who has a Mac laptop and a blackberry, says one secret is to launch videos on Thursday around the time that kids get out of school. The buzz will pick up on Friday during school hours and on Saturday the show will often get the most views.
Live Videos by Ustream
Cruikshank says the hyperactive, weird Fred character is an exaggerated version of his younger brothers and a good perk of being a 15-year-old online video star is that seniors at his high school will talk to him despite the fact that he's a freshman. Want to know what kind of a CPM he charges? Well, he's not going to tell you.

Ok, these post titles are really getting ridiculous, people. But this amazing sandwich of cucumber and butter, edged with cream cheese and scallions, is called the Limerick, and it brings me right back to the homeland… well, not to Ireland, but to Scotland. (And fine, that's not even my homeland, but anyway…) Ahem. Feast your eyes:
I discovered this simple and incredibly tasty sandwich at Chado Tea Room – my favorite place to go in Los Angeles when I want to feel like I'm NOT in Los Angeles, but rather in some Merchant Ivory film set in late-century Britain. (I am also, in these moments, a seventy-five-year-old woman who bakes cookies and goes to the Old Castle Tavern in St. Andrews, Scotland every night to drink Guinness and knit sweaters for my grandchildren. It's just one of my fantasies. Bear with me.) WOW, did I get off topic. The point is, at Chado, they have a Limerick sandwich on the menu and I have replicated it for you HERE, so you can ENJOY the crunch of the cukes, the crisp of the scallions, the salt of the cream cheese, and the Ooh-la-la of the butter. Get your knitting needles, and come with me…
Big knife
Regular table knife (you know what I mean)
Wheat Bread
Scallions (1 stalk) (And yes, they are also known as green onions as my grocery store insisted they be called. JEEZ.)
Cream cheese
You could probably figure this one out yourself just by looking at it, (like I did), but let's humor each other and go through the motions, shall we? After all, as Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. once said, "I firmly believe that we are put on this earth to fart around."
(Sorry for the fart reference.)
And actually I do want to say one thing which is that for best results, you want to keep all the elements in proportion with this sandwich. Too much cream cheese and you might as well just be eating a bagel. Too much cucumber and it's a salad on bread. Too much butter and – well you could never have too much butter, but you get the idea. Ok!
Lightly toast the bread, just to firm it up. Or if you don't like toast, (which believe it or not, my husband doesn't), don't. What do I care, you weirdo.
Cut six or seven slices of cucumber AS THINLY AS YOU CAN with your big knife. (I actually used too much cucumber in the example above – next time I'll make them thinner and layer them less.) Again, you want a thin layer in this sandwich because too much cuke will overpower the butter. And I know you can't believe I just said that, but you have to trust me when I tell you that butter is an ESSENTIAL flavor in this luscious Limerick experience.
Butter both pieces of bread well – more than you would if you were just having toast. You don't want the butter to disappear on you. Really people, you want the butter. Don't be shy. Have I made myself clear on the butter issue?
Yes, Punky Chef. Please continue.
Okay okay. So impatient. Ahem. Lay the cucumber slices on the bottom slice of bread and close the sandwich. With your regular knife, spread cream cheese all around the edges of the sandwich like this:
And now chop the dark green ends of the scallions and lay them out in a long, thin line, like this:
And I think you know where we're going with this, eh? Hold your sandwich in one hand and roll it through the scallions, like caviar on sushi, like sprinkles on an ice cream cone, like YUM, man.
And now all that's left to do is cut the sandwich in half and plate 'er up! SERVE and ENJOY! And just wait until the butter taste hits you – it's like a rich, sweet aftertaste, perfectly complimenting the fresh crisp cukes. Ahh…
You can even eat your delicious Limerick sandwich with the rest of your leftover Spicy 3 Bean Chili from the other night. Nothing like a little British Isles pub lunch mixed with some vegetarian Tex-Mex, eh?
And no, the Pac-Man visual was not intentional.

Council Announces New Chair in Middle East and Africa Studies
October 6, 2008 12:26 pm (EST)
- News Releases
Eni S.p.A. has made a $5 million commitment to establish a permanently endowed chair in Middle East and Africa Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). This chair has been named in honor of Eni's founder, Enrico Mattei, who played a significant role in transforming Eni into a leading global energy company. The Eni Enrico Mattei Chair will be held by a distinguished scholar who will devote his or her time and expertise to the current and emerging foreign policy issues of importance to the Middle East and Africa.
"Eni is proud of its long-standing association with CFR, which will be intensified in a very meaningful way by the establishment of a chair in the name of its founder and still-guiding spirit," said Eni CEO Paolo Scaroni.
More on:
"We are honored that Eni S.p.A. chose CFR for this fitting tribute to Enrico Mattei," said CFR President Richard N. Haass. "The regional work of the chair will make a significant contribution to the breadth of the David Rockefeller Studies Program. We are especially indebted to Paolo Scaroni for this tangible vote of confidence in the work of CFR, and to Enzo Viscusi for his dedication to building a strong relationship between Eni and CFR over the years."
The Council on Foreign Relations is an independent, nonpartisan membership organization, think tank, and publisher dedicated to being a resource for its members, government officials, business executives, journalists, educators and students, civic and religious leaders, and other interested citizens in order to help them better understand the world and the foreign policy choices facing the United States and other countries.

Iza's Highlights of 2013
It's been one hell of a busy year in the world of alternative music. Lots of great new releases, memorable shows and festivals. I've decided to write a short summary of some of the highlights of 2013. Here are some of the albums that caught my attention this year:
1. Chthonic – Bú Tik
Genre: Melodic Black Metal/ Oriental Metal
This is easily my favourite metal album of 2013. 'Bú Tik' brings together the aggression of black and death metal with the melodic oriental sounds of the erhu for that unique mix that only Chthonic are renowned for. The results of this combination are both complex and beautiful in their design. Best tracks: 'Supreme Pain For a Tyrant', 'Sail into The Sunset's Fire' and Defenders of Bú Tik Palace'.
2. Suicide Commando – When Evil Speaks
Genre: Industrial/ Aggrotech/ Harsh Electro
I've been a fan of Suicide Commando for a number of years now. 'When Evil Speaks' is the long-awaited follow-up to 'Implements of Hell'. Based around the overall subject of hate and evil in today's society; the album features dark and sinister lyrical themes, old-school EBM tunes and Aggrotech dance-floor hits. Best tracks: 'My Blasphemy', 'Unterwelt' and 'Monster'.
3. Children of Bodom – Halo of Blood
Genre: Melodic Death/Power Metal
I've been of a fan of this band since my early teens, so of course I jumped at the opportunity to review their latest album. Aside from the odd surprise such as the ballad 'Dead Man's Hand On You', 'Halo of Blood' features the signature Bodom sound and is without a shadow of doubt their strongest release in years. Best tracks: 'Transference' , 'Bodom Blue Moon' and 'Dead Man's Hand On You'.
4. Psyclon Nine – [Order of the Shadow : Act I]
Genre: Aggrotech/ Industrial Metal
This band is not an easy one to categorise into a specific genre. Some industrial and EBM fans dismiss their style by saying that their black metal influences are too strong to earn them a place in the industrial scene. Not that I give a damn since that's precisely why I like them. 'Order of The Shadow…" is their harshest and most aggressive release to date. After 10 tracks of intense, adrenaline fueled, blackened industrial, I was shocked to hear the sombre ballads at the end. Best tracks: 'Shadows Unveiled' , 'Use Once and Destroy' and 'The Saint and The Valentine'.
5. Agathodaimon – In Darkness
Genre: Melodic Black Metal/ Symphonic Black Metal
This album marks a departure from the gothic metal days of its predecessor 'Phoenix' and a return their older, melodic black metal sound depicted in earlier releases such as 'Chapter III' and 'Higher Art of Rebellion'. Whilst not quite reaching the greatness of 'Chapter III' (an album which holds a special place in my heart); 'In Darkness' is definitely a step in the right direction, offering a mixture of agression and melancholic melodies. Best tracks: 'In Darkness (We Shall be Reborn), 'I've Risen' and 'Favourite Sin'.
Best Live Shows of 2013
1. Sabaton live at Sauna Open Air, Tampere, Finland.
2. Children of Bodom live at Sauna Open Air, Tampere, Finland.
3. Chthonic live at Klubi, Tampere, Finland.
4. Suicide Commando live in London, the U.K.
5. Heimataerde live at KOMA festival, Oslo, Norway.
Best New Discovery of 2013: ErilaZ
This Finnish band caught my attention during their performance at this year's Lumous festival in Tampere, Finland. What do they sound like? Imagine a mixture of Fear Factory, Front Line Assembly with the combined lyrical themes of Amon Amarth. Impossible, you say? Go on, I dare you to give them a try!
To finish off I'd like to list some of the releases that I'm looking forward to in 2014:
Most Anticipated Albums of 2014:
1. Behemoth – The Satanist
Genre: Blackened Death Metal
Release Date: 3rd February 2014
2. Vader – TIBI ET IGNI "For You (and only You) and Fire
Genre: Death Metal
Release Date: Spring 2014
3. Kampfar – Djevelmakt
Genre: Pagan Black Metal

A story about the dangerous parts of Toronto and Greater Toronto Areas. The darkness can trick you in many ways when you are weak. It plays tricks on your mind–conjures illusions to make you believe things that are not there. It'll have you doing things you ought not to
only to pull you further into a terrifying realm of lies, sorrow, and pain. Only a diamond in the rough can shine bright enough to see through that type of darkness. Does this Diamond have what it takes or will her light be snuffed out? Lately Diamond's been thinking she's invisible but the heat is coming. Is she ready for this new chapter in life or will it bring her closer to death?

Known by locals in Greece as Tsai Tou VouNou or Tea of the Mountain! Greek Mountain Mint tea is made from the dried flowers leaves and stems of a local herb called Sideritis. Its mild, pleasant flavor and numerous health benefits make a delicious addition to our herbal blend with mint.
Sideritis has shown in studies to be as powerful of an antioxidant and polyphenol source as green tea, but without the naturally occurring caffeine of tea- so you can enjoy it any time of the day.
Once steeped, the lovely blend releases a strong soothing peppermint aroma, at first sip you will savor natural fennel alongside the mild herbaceous Sideritis taste and a cool peppermint note that finishes the cup with a refreshing end.

Nah it's still there with VFS_AIO compiled into the kernel.

New crop of revenue agents
I recently received a traffic ticket from the police for the lack of lights over my licence plate. Sure, you know how surprised I was to learn that this was an offence punishable by a fine. (I did go to have the problem corrected forthwith only to discover the bulb was fine but the fuse was not plugged in; this resulted from work being done on the car previously). Of course we all know that ignorance of the law is no excuse.
In my naivete and continuing ignorance I decided to go to court with the hope that the judge (who, by the way, was extremely learned and very competent) would have exercised her discretion. You would not know how absolutely shocked I was when the judge charged me a greater sum than that on the ticket.
reasons for going to court
There were two motivating reasons for going to court. First, I felt the fine was excessive. Second, having spoken to the judge, I thought there would be an exercise of discretion and the fine would be lessened. On the contrary, the fine was increased; this seems to suggest that the intent was to punish you further if you dared come to court.
What causes me concern is not only the quantum of the fine but the lack of the rationale as to the lessening of some fines and the increasing of others. I am not sure what significant threat to society the lack of a light over my licence plate presented.
At this point in time, I have to relax in the knowledge that, after all is said and done, our police and resident magistrates are significant to the revenue collection process. So what can I say ... IMF ... Is my Fault. Hooray!

At the same time that Wilton Sport Shop on Danbury Road announced it is closing, the property owner has asked the Planning and Zoning Commission about the scope of its adaptive use regulation.
The regulation allows commercial use of historic properties while the properties remain in the residential zone. Approved in the 1970s, the regulation was meant to prevent commercial strip developments from popping up while protecting historic buildings.
Wilton Sport Shop owner Ken Cyr has invited customers to a retirement/store closing sale beginning Thursday, Feb. 7. "We are closing our doors forever," the invitation said, adding the sale will at first be open only to "local customers" who received the invitation and their guests.
Meanwhile, Syed Reza of Talbot House LLC has asked P&Z for an interpretation of the adaptive use regulation and whether it applies to ancillary buildings on a property.
Talbot House LLC is the owner of 426 Danbury Road, which contains two buildings; the main one in front is occupied by Wilton Sport Shop. The second building, referred to as the "carriage house," contains vacant office space and one apartment.
The question posed, according to Town Planner Bob Nerney, is whether under the adaptive use regulation, the office space in the carriage house could be used for four residential apartments, for a total of five apartments in the building. There would be no expansion of the building.
"This really is an issue of taking what is vacant office space and putting it to a use, said Nerney.
After reviewing the issue, the commission was satisfied the request met the interpretation of the adaptive use regulation in terms of the concept, according to Nerney.
"I want to stress that there is no pending application at this time. This was just a request for an interpretation of the regulations," Nerney said.
Based on recent projects, such as Wilton Heights and Sunrise Senior Living, Nerney said he has noticed a comeback for residential living on Danbury Road, which is primarily business-oriented.
"Historically, this area was retail and commercial, but at this juncture the commercial market isn't as strong with the advent of online sales, so demand for retail commercial space is not as great as it was in the past," he said.
Wilton Sport Shop to close

DEVELOPMENT OF A NOVEL FOULING DETERRENCE STRATEGY BY UNDERSTANDING THE EFECT OF NORADRENALINE ON THE CELLS OF EASTERN OYSTER, Crassostrea virginica AND CYPRIS LARVE OF THE STRIPED BARNACLE Balanus amphitrite

The focus of this study was to understand and evaluate the effect of noradrenaline (NA) on two prominent fouling marine invertebrates, the Eastern Oyster, Crassostrea virginica and the Striped Barnacle, Balanus amphitrite for the purpose of developing a novel fouling deterrence strategy.
To understand the effect of NA at a cellular level the immune cells (hemocytes) of C. virginica were chosen as representative molluscan cells. Upon stimulation with 10 micro-molar of noradrenaline ~4% hemocytes of C. virginica labeled positive for the beta-adrenergic receptor (beta-AR). Upon NA stimulation the beta-AR positive cells formed cell-cell synapses and apoptosis was detected in ~50% of the hemocyte population.
NA induced apoptosis was followed from the earliest onset to the terminal stages, from the release of cytochrome-c to the DNA degradation. Electric cell substrate impedance measurements suggested that NA stimulation induced cytoskeletal changes in the hemocytes. SDS PAGE and Western analysis corroborated the presence of beta-AR on NA stimulated hemocytes. Mass spectral analysis of the receptor protein revealed that the putative hemocyte beta-AR has a 30% sequence identity to the human beta-AR.
Effect of NA on the settling behavior of B. amphitrite cypris larvae was evaluated by challenging the larvae with micromolar concentrations of NA ranging from 30-100 micro-molar. The noted searching behavior of cypris larvae was lost after NA challenge and the larvae failed to cement to the substratum. ~70% of the NA treated larvae failed to settle and cement. NA treatment caused a considerable delay in cyprid-adult metamorphosis. Metamorphosed juvenile barnacles were observed 96 hours following NA treatment, whereas the control cyprids metamorphosed within 24-48 hours. In the cyprids-adult metamorphosis remnants of the cyprid stage were observed up to 48 hours of development. Metamorphosed juvenile barnacles appeared normal from the presence of growth increments and beating of cirri. NA challenge seemed to promote metamorphosis to juveniles forgoing the settling behavior and cementation to the substratum.
To assess the applicability of NA as a fouling deterrent, NA molecules were covalently conjugated to HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and MAA (methacrylic acid) polymer surfaces. Ability of covalently conjugated NA molecules to activate their target adrenoreceptors was assessed by understanding the effect of NA-conjugated polymer surfaces on hemocytes of C. virginica.
NA conjugated polymer surfaces induced apoptosis in the hemocytes of C. virginica. Annexin-V assay confirmed the initiation of apoptosis.
Cytoskeletal structure of the hemocytes adhering to NA-conjugated polymer surfaces displayed pronounced degradation. Apoptotic blebbing of plasma membrane was also observed using scanning electron microscopy. Control polymer surfaces failed to exert any deleterious effects on the hemocytes.
Based on the results obtained in this study a novel fouling deterrence strategy is discussed.

Spare Me!
Thank God Fall is coming so we wouldn't have to see those distasteful Crocs shoes in the street anymore, even if I know that some people wouldn't mind wearing it with socks! Even the Birkenstocks look sexy compare to those things. At least they should have stayed on the beach where they meant for. Honestly I'd rather walk barefoot on the burning sand than wearing such an ugly pair of shoes, and by the way, can we call them shoes?

|Free Republic 4th Qtr 2022 Fundraising Target: $80,000
|Receipts & Pledges to-date: $2,688
|Woo hoo!! And our first 3% is in!! Thank you all very much!! God bless.
Posted on 10/01/2009 11:32:47 AM PDT by Jim Robinson
Woo hoo!! The Tea Party Express was a great success!! Thirty four cities, thirty four rallies in 15 days, then on to Washington, DC! And two million of us Marched On DC! Wow!! What a mob!! A flood of patriots filled all the main streets flowing into the Capitol and overflowed the Capitol grounds. Millions of us! And all calling for an end to socialism and a return to the constitution! Down with corruption!! Down with tyranny!!
Wish we all could have squeezed into the congressional office buildings to run the RATS out, but that just wasn't in the cards this time. But they'd better hope we don't have to come back. If Obama, Reid, Pelosi & CO. try to cram down socialized healthcare or cap and trade, etc, despite our objections, they're gonna get it. We'll be back, stronger and madder than ever and loaded for bear!!
The Main stream media are doing their best to ignore us but they won't be ignoring us on election day 2010! Their silence speaks volumes. And you can smell the fear. The people are pissed!! And you can see it in the mood change in the congress. The congress is wavering and Obama's Marxist agenda is going down because the people have raised such a stink. It's a good thing when the congress fears the people. And there WILL be a turnover in 2010, this is sure!! Vote 'em out!!
We also had a great FReeper convention and get together in DC. Our first national event in quite awhile. And our turnout was good but the next one should be even better. We want to continue building steam in the Tea Party movement to ensure a rebellious turnout in the coming elections. Obama's socialist/Marxist agenda must be stopped and we the people are the ones who WILL stop it!!
We have to raise a little more money this quarter to make payments on loans we took out for event expenses and also we have taxes coming due. Hopefully we'll get it all paid off soon.
Thank you all very much for your continuing support!!
God Bless America!!
Rebellion is brewing!!
I'm in!
My normal $20 via snail mail will be there soon! Thanks for FR!
Please have a freeper event on the west coast in the heart of Libtard land so I can attend!....
Here's to a quick success!
Thank you very much, MaryFromMichigan!!

Thank you all very much!!
i just tried to sign up to donate 10/month, but my card expires in 2015 and your selector only goes up to 2014. please advise.
$92 (dollar-a-day) check in the mail.
tried to make my donation and I guess card has expired. Will get it taken care of ASAP!
Love FR!
How about Southern California or maybe Las Vegas? Or St. Louis, Dallas, Chicago?
Donated and BTTT.
Hmmm... will contact John for a fix. Thank you very much!
I sure hope THIS quarter doesn't take the whole quarter to fill. That is very discouraging.
Thank you very much, humblegunner!!
Thank you very much, Publius!!
Thank you very much, pollywog!!
I'm sure the gang is very, very thankful for all the dollar-a-day members. I'm at the $30 per month level and your post reminded me I just might be shorting this great site about $5 a year, $6 on leap year.
Thanks for the post. A dollar-a-day does not always add up to $30 a month.
This site needs more dollar-a-day members and then the FReepathons would be H I S T O R Y.
Happy FReeping.
I need to know if money orders are ok to mail in otherwise it has to be cash. Good luck.

How we're different
Unlike most brands, we provide specific measurements of an individual shoe instead of a general size guide encompassing all shoes in a range. We avoid the label of all types of shoes having the same size. For example - the measurements of a size 30 boot will vary compared to a size 30 sandal. All our shoes are of standard European sizing, we do however include if a fit runs small, standard or wide.

A country most seasoned Americans only know from Vietnam War reports, Laos remains a communist country – surrounded by Vietnam, Cambodia, China, Thailand and Myanmar – with precious few civil liberties for its 6.5 million citizens.Yet, those looking for an adventure will see the hope that comes with an emerging economy and want to participate in its expansion and the freedom that often follows. The room for growth is great – 80-percent Laotians are employed in farming, much of it subsistence.However, mineral resources are plentiful in Laos, as is the water needed for the hydroelectric energy it exports to neighbors. Interestingly, a popular brewed-rice alcoholic beverage, Beerlao, is the face of Laos for most regional foreigners.Keep in mind that tourism is the country's fastest growing industry, and that makes a motorcycle ride through the rural, tropical country just a bit more appealing.Again, you will not be hopping on a Gold Wing to travel through Laos and you won't be staying at opulent luxury hotels. There are few flights into Laos, no rail system, and while major roads are improving, much of the country is accessed via unpaved roads.With all of these daunting aspects, Laos is still accessible to Americans with the right help. MotoQuest, which hosts tours worldwide (and rents motorcycles in the United States), has the local knowledge needed for a safe trip through Laos, which has many natural and historic resources that will satisfy those who demand the most exotic experiences.Riders take the Honda Baja 250 (similar to the older XR250L dual-sport bike) through the country, with an English-speaking Laotian guide at the helm. There is a support truck following, and the guide carries tools, first aid equipment and a satellite phone. Riders are encouraged to bring high-quality, waterproof off-road friendly apparel.In addition to the riding, which takes you inside the Pathet Lao Caves, there are off-bike excursions, including a trip down the Nam Ou River, a tour of the Plain of Jars (a 2000-year-old archeological landscape featuring hundreds of stone jars), an elephant ride, and the Luang Prabang Night Market.Respectful of Laos' war-torn past, MotoQuest donates $100 to the Mines Advisory Group for each tour participant.

Tour de Force - Economics weekly
Bradley Wiggins's success in the Tour de France was a much needed lift for the UK amid gloomier economic news.
23 July 2012
The IMF reduced its 2013 global growth forecast but revised the UK's forecast down more sharply than any other advanced economy (from 2% to 1.4%). And it warned that the pace of austerity should slow if the economy hasn't begun to improve by 2013. UK policymakers are acutely aware of the risks and like team cycling, success doesn't depend on just one man. On top of more quantitative easing and two policies to stimulate growth through lending, the Government announced a new measure to provide guarantees for infrastructure investment. But with the biggest risks coming from the Europe and the US, there are still lots of foreign potholes which could buckle the wheels of recovery. In the Eurozone, fear increased again as Spanish bond yields rose above 7%, despite the recent banking bailout. Meanwhile across the pond, concerns about the US fiscal cliff still refuse to go away. These are tough times indeed and we will need some strong legs to keep going.
UK inflation fell to its lowest rate since November 2009
UK Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) fell for the third consecutive month in June, to reach its lowest rate in more than two and a half years. At 2.4% it is now at less than half of the September 2011 peak of 5.2%. A 4.2%m/m fall in clothing and footwear prices, probably due to the poor weather, was the biggest drag. But consumers also benefitted from lower prices on the forecourt and on food and non-alcoholic drinks. Meanwhile Eurozone inflation was unchanged at 2.4%y/y in June.
UK unemployment fell by 65,000 in three months to May
A 181,000 rise in employment caused the unemployment rate to fall to 8.1% in the 3 months to May. The data show that the UK's entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well with selfemployment the overwhelming driver behind employment growth. Indeed, there are 144,000 fewer employees than at the start of the year, but 166,000 more self-employed. But others are losing skills, and more failing to gain them. The number unemployed for more than 12 months rose to its highest level since mid-1996 and youth unemployment rose again too. The number of 18-24 year olds unemployed and not in full-time education went up by 6,000 to 724,000.
UK earnings growth was unchanged in May
Average weekly earnings grew by 1.5%y/y in May, but spending power continued to fall as earnings were outpaced by inflation once again. Real earnings shrank by 1.3%y/y. Private sector earnings grew by 1.8%, while public sector earnings grew by 1.1%. Consumers will be happy that inflation is falling, but with earnings growth so low it has to fall a great deal further before they will be able to loosen their belts, even just a little bit.
UK retail sales were weaker than expected in June
The value of retail sales fell by 0.5%m/m in June, while volumes edged up by just 0.1%m/m. Store price inflation - the rate at which prices are going up in the shops - slowed to 0.3%. This is the lowest rate since October 2009. Cheaper clothing and footwear was one of the main reasons for the rise in volume, but sales were still up on last year by 1.9% in value and 1.6% in volume. All the same, it was a disappointing result given the extra spending hoped for around the Jubilee.
The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) voted 7-2 for looser policy
The minutes of July's MPC meeting revealed that all nine members felt that the deterioration in the growth outlook warranted some stimulus. Everyone agreed that the policy rate should be left at 0.5%, although they didn't rule out a change in future. But there was disagreement about whether the Funding for Lending Scheme (FLS), the Extended Collateral Term Repo Facility (ECTR) and the prospective slackening of regulatory liquidity requirements would provide enough of a boost on their own. Only two members thought so. The others felt conditions were weak enough to warrant another £50bn expansion to the asset purchase scheme.
US Fed show no signs of easing – yet
Despite the weak outlook for the US economy, falling retail sales and 'frustratingly slow' progress on unemployment, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's address to Congress gave no hint that he is minded to loosen monetary policy yet. There may be some element of strategy in the stance as the Chairman once again raised the impact of the impending fiscal cliff on confidence. Previously he has made it clear that monetary policy can only do so much and that Congress has to play its part - and soon. We will have to wait and see who blinks first.

'Generation Startup' is a fantasy we need
Starting a company can be a gritty business, and I'm not sure if a new film about young dreamers trying to make it in Detroit will inspire other college grads or chase them away.
Living in a drafty, barely habitable house in the city's up-and-coming New Center neighborhood may conjure bohemian fantasies for some. Or it may make a kid carrying $50,000 in student loan debt glad she has a job in banking.
Here's what I do know after seeing "Generation Startup" earlier this week at the Milwaukee Film Festival: My city, Milwaukee, should figure out how to nurture Millennial entrepreneurs such as the ones featured in the film.
The movie follows the lives of six "fellows" of the Venture for America program as they dive into a two-year, post-graduate hitch for idealistic young people who want to change the world and maybe start the next Google or Tesla.
VFA recruits top college talent from schools such as Vanderbilt, Johns Hopkins and MIT and matches them with startups around the country. The big idea: Help them learn by doing and inspire some to start their own companies.
It's a great concept. Despite an uptick the past couple of years in entrepreneurial activity, business formation nationwide remains well below where it was before the shock of the Great Recession. Since so many jobs are created by young companies, fewer companies in the pipeline means fewer jobs down the road.
Venture for America, which was founded in 2011, is in 17 cities so far including St. Louis, Cincinnati and Cleveland. Milwaukee is not on its short list at the moment but it ought to be.
The group considers the vibrancy of the startup scene in potential communities including whether they have successful startup hubs and accelerators that support young companies, spokeswoman Leandra Elberger wrote me in an email.
"As a nonprofit organization, we have to consider the local funding landscape and whether or not the community is excited to partner with us. It costs roughly $30,000 per fellow to recruit, train, and support over the two years, and we look to local corporations, community foundations and generous individuals to help fund our operations."
As I watched "Generation Startup," I found myself rooting for the characters as they work 20-hour days, eat peanut butter out of the jar for breakfast and sleep on mattresses thrown on paint-splattered floors. Their businesses face existential crises over the 17-month arc of the film:
•Brian Rudolph's chickpea pasta, Banza, is nutritious (gluten free, twice the protein, four times the fiber, nearly half the net carbs). But it turns to a gross looking mush when cooked.
•Max Nussenbaum's business plan for Castle, his high-tech property management company, zigs and zags so often that he nearly runs it into the ground.
They're often in over their heads. But watching them climb out is a central theme of this coming-of-age story. And here's the thing: They all do climb out.
The film has been criticized — fairly, I think — for boosterism on behalf of entrepreneurship generally and Venture for America in particular. And for being a bit fantastical. The main characters in the film all land on their feet, and two of the companies, the reformulated Banza and the refinanced Castle, are on a fast track as the film ends.
Reality is different: A lot of startups fail. Half are lucky to make it five years.
But don't burst my bubble. I was OK with creative license. And I'm OK with inspiring young people to try. We need more of them to try.

Art Ginsburg, a.k.a. Mr. Food, passed away last night at his home in Weston, Florida. The 81-year-old butcher-turned-chef spent 30 years in the food industry, making numerous tv appearances and publishing over 50 cookbooks.
Ginsburg was something of an anomaly, he "had an unlikely formula for success… With a pleasantly goofy, grandfatherly manner and a willingness to embrace processed foods, Ginsburg endeared himself to millions of home cooks via 90-second segments syndicated to 125 local television stations around the country."
He also appeared in a sweet Q & A conducted by Ricki Altman, over at our sister paper, The Broward Palm Beach New Times. Ginsburg tells Altman that his dream food personification "would..be a tomato eaten fresh off the vine or a potato cooked into a brown and crispy home fry." He also noted his impossible dream of cooking an "omelet or one of my famous tomato sandwiches with fresh country-style bread" for Julia Child.
R.I.P. Mr. Food. [GS]

Matthew 7:24-29 – "Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 "And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. 26 "Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 "The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell — and great was its fall." 28 When Jesus had finished these words, the crowds were amazed at His teaching; 29 for He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as their scribes." NASU
Ephesians 5:18-21 – "And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; 20 always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; 21 and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ." NASU
In continuing our consideration of the Early Church and the success they had several things come immediately to our attention.
THEY CHOSE TO BUILD ON THE ROCK – Christ Jesus.
Before their conversion, they were following the practices of their religion and their own hearts and in a very real sense, they were building upon the sand. The Law was their guide and they followed the customs and ideas of the priest. Man's will is not God-like until it has been supernaturally changed through salvation.
Jesus opened a new and better way to them in Grace. He said, "Upon this Rock, I will build My Church." There is no other foundation upon which we can build eternal spiritual buildings. Had the Early Church been content with what we are too often, the church would not be in existence today. Before Christ, they had to rebuild after every storm of life. Trials, tests, and difficulties stopped them but now they had a Foundation that was Eternal.
Jesus was their Rock of Ages. He is the Author and Finisher of our Faith and He is tried and proven. He is the anchor that holds no matter what storm comes and He gave them Hope in a hopeless world. He gave them confidence that they could overcome whereas before they had been accustomed to defeat and lived under the debt of sin. He taught them that they could be Holy because He Is Holy. They could be Victorious because He is Victorious. They could overcome the devil because He did. In Him, they lived and moved and had being.
The Word lived in them. It was not simply something they read and heard but it lived inside their hearts. They had the Living Word living in them, in Jesus through the Power and Anointing of the Holy Spirit. The Word of God worked in their lives. It became a living reality they could apply to daily life situations. They continually searched the Scriptures and as they discovered the truths contained therein they applied those precepts and principles to their daily lives.
They studied to show themselves approved unto God. They sought to know God's Word so they could lead others in right paths. They studied to be grounded. They had a deep desire to know God's Promises and Provisions. They studied for guidance and their desire was to be "like Jesus". They wanted to do more than represent Him, they wanted to manifest Him. They sought to be pure, honest, holy, free from unclean habits, modest, decent, and busy about the Master's business.
They used biblical reasoning in everything they did. I find evidence that they sought to know what the Bible said on any given matter before forming a standard. They wanted to know that it would glorify God and was consistent with the Bible. They wanted to determine if what they planned would do harm or help. They sought to determine from the Word if their doctrines would increase or decrease faith.
Their love for God motivated them and the Commandment of Jesus was ever present in their thinking. They knew their message and refused to deviate from it. They were not looking for some new trendy way to entertain but sought to bring deliverance from sin to lives. They knew the Power by which they operated was the Power of the Holy Spirit. They knew their authority was directly given by Jesus in His defeat of the devil.
God's call for us today is to reevaluate our foundation and be sure we are founded on Jesus. He wants us to revise our mindset and develop an expectation that the Word will produce the same effect it produced in them. He wants us to operate with the mentality that He is the same yesterday.
It is God's desire that we live in the atmosphere of heaven and have the culture of the Kingdom of God in our daily lives and in our churches. We can move the world through Him so let's do it!
God bless you as you enjoy this wonderful day in Him!

As noted earlier in the post about Adam Dunn signing with the Nationals, word has been that an offer by the Nats to Dunn has been on the table for at least a couple months. That standing offer appears to be the one Dunn agreed to today, based on the size of the contract that SI.com is reporting.
According to SI.com's Tom Verducci, Dunn's two-year contract is worth $20 million. It's easy to see why Dunn jumped on that after a couple months of holding off. One day ago, Bobby Abreu was cornered into taking a 1-year, $5 million-plus-incentives offer from the Los Angeles Angels.
Dunn's positive relationship with his form GM in Cincinnati, Jim Bowden, surely played a part in his being able to nab that $20 million offer even after the market cratered - and in Bowden not re-sizing the offer downward.

Although Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre have decades on their current successors in Hip Hop, the pair still have a few things they're currently "cooking up."
While speaking with Rolling Stone, Snoop revealed that an album and tour with Dr. Dre are both possibilities, with the latter option proving to be the most enticing. He later declared that "the dream team" for such a tour would consist of himself, Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar, and Eminem.
"We got a couple of things we're cooking up…I think that makes sense more than anything," Snoop Dogg said when asked about the possibility of a tour with Dr. Dre. "A Snoop-Dre album would be amazing, but a tour even more, because we have legendary music the world has yet to see us perform globally. I'm pretty sure he wants to do it. He just wants the team in place. Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre – that's the dream team for him."
Earlier in the year, Snoop told DJ Whoo Kid that the idea had been tossed around as they were trying to come to an agreeable budget for all the legends involved.
With his upcoming, television show with homemaker Martha Stewart, Martha & Snoop's Dinner Party, the Long Beach lyricist was asked if he feels that he's losing too much of his gangsta-rap reputation.
Snoop clarified that as an "uncle to the hip-hop game," maintaining a certain reputation isn't a concern of his.
"Nah, because I ain't 19 no more," he said. "I don't gangbang. You're dealing with a grandfather, the uncle to the hip-hop game. He's made a full 360 from where he was to who he is – and that's what we love about him. He's a great example of what you can be."
Martha & Snoop's Dinner Party is slated to air this fall on VH1.

I've been closely watching the development of MacFUSE ever since its release. It has that inner-geek appeal that always makes me come back for more. In a nutshell, MacFUSE allows anything in your computer to be represented by the file system. There are a few obvious applications, like NTFS read/write access and using SSH as a file system.
This latest version makes MacFUSE a little more user-accessible, powerful, and stable. First, it now has its own preference pane. It's a little sparse, but it helps you keep up to date (with release or beta versions) as well as giving you an easy way to uninstall.
The big new under-the-hood features are 64-bit and Snow Leopard support. Most of the rest of the changes are bug fixes or developer enhancements.
If you're interested in accessing those Windows disks or dumping your SSH file transfer program, it's a better idea than ever to try it out.

The BJMT Awards Panel met on 17 April 2018 at the Lord's Taverners offices in London to make the annual Brian Johnston Scholarship Awards. A total of more than £40,000 was given in scholarships, grants and awards to help promising young cricketers to fulfil their sporting potential. Once again we are grateful for the generosity and support of all our Johnners Club members, who have enabled us to make these awards.
(1) ECB Recommended Scholars.
On the recommendation of the ECB Performance Department, Brian Johnston Cricket Scholarships totalling more than £18,000 were awarded to the following young cricketers to assist them with travelling expenses so that they can attend their coaching and training sessions:
(2) Blind Cricket.
The Brian Johnston Memorial Trust is proud to continue its support of cricket for the visually impaired and a grant of £8,850 was awarded to Blind Cricket England and Wales towards the cost of funding their ninth annual development weekend at the University of Leicester in September 2018, designed to introduce players and teams from around the country to blind cricket.
An additional grant of £8,270 was awarded to fund the UK Women and Girls VI Programme that offers blind and visually impaired school girls throughout the country the opportunity to learn about the game and participate in out-of-school cricket sessions in Berkshire, Worcestershire and Yorkshire. This includes funding towards a Development Tour of a Women and Girls blind and visually impaired cricket team to Barbados.
(3) BJMT Elite Spin Bowling Programme.
The Brian Johnston Memorial Trust has also agreed to one final year of sponsorship for the BJMT Elite Spin Bowling Programme in association with the ECB. All eighteen of the first-class Counties and UCCEs are now participating in this programme that aims to encourage and develop the art of spin bowling in England and Wales by providing funds for additional coaching at Academy level.
