NetWare comes with a utility called the Novell Upgrade Wizardthat let's you migrate everything from NetWare 3.x. Though the utility saysthat it's an upgrade, it lets you move all the user preferences and data fromone server to another. So it's actually more of a migration than an upgrade.That's why you'll need to install NetWare 5.x on a different machine forthis process.
Before you begin migration, you'll need to check if the IPXprotocol is installed on both servers. Also ensure that the network address onboth the servers is the same. You can do this by opening the file autoexec.ncflocated on each server using a text editor. The line will be of the form:
Bind ipx to
Here, a3 is the network address. You also need to ensure thatyour NetWare 3.x server is updated with the latest patches.
The Novell Upgrade utility is located in the product\upgrdwizdirectory of your NetWare 5.x OS CD. The utility can be installed on a Win 9x orWan NT Workstation client. Once you've installed the utility, you'll need toupdate the NetWare 3.x server with a couple of files. You'll find these in theProgram Files\ novell\product\nw3x directory of the client on which youinstalled the utility. Copy all these files to the sys: \system directory on theNetWare 3.x server.
Next you need to edit the autoexec.ncf file on the NetWare3.x server and add the following line:
load tsa31x.nlm
Using Domain Migration Administrator
Install the DMA software on the Windows 2000 Server. It'll
create its own program group in the Start Menu, so you can launch it from there.
When you run it, you have to create a migration project. DMA will store it as an
Access database file. A project is created between a source and a target domain.
The target domain will of course be the Windows 2000 Server you just created.
The source domain will be a Win NT Server. It will show you a list of all the
Win NT domains to choose from on your network. Each source domain you migrate
will form a different project.
DMA runs through the Microsoft Management Console, which is
divided into two panes. The left part shows you all migration projects you
created, while the right side shows you a list of steps to follow for doing the
migration. Click a migration project in the left pane and click on a migration
step in the right pane. The procedure is as simple as that, but it isn't that
easy when you actually do it.
The next step is to run the Reporting wizard. This will
collect all information about your source domain such as the users, computers,
services, etc, and put it in a database. Next you have to migrate all trust
relationships with the target domain. Once this is done, all the data is stored
into a database by DMA. You're now ready to migrate the users, groups, and
computers or merge multiple groups into a single group.
All tasks have wizards to guide you through the process.
After the wizard has finished its work, it'll display all errors that have
occurred. Store them in a log file. You can later view them to see where the
problem occurred.
When you migrate users, you can specify a target container in
the Active Directory where they should be placed. The wizard also prompts you
with various options such as whether to transfer the original password, or
whether to disable the account after migration on the source or target domain.
You can also update the user rights so that their group memberships don't
change after the migration.
Lastly, you can also undo a migration using DMA if it doesn't
go well.

Runners could take advantage of the sights of a small town. A quaint little shop area snuggled in the alley with brick-lined streets near the start. A Victorian house and several smaller houses watched as participants took advantage of the shade provided by the tree-lined streets.
Jason Redman and Glen Baldwin battled it out for the
finish. Baldwin led with Redman on his hills until Redman pushed at
the end. With Redman's winning time of 27:22 he finished in just under
sixth-tenths of a second ahead of Baldwin. "Jason had a bigger surge
at the end," said Baldwin. "He is a strong runner for such a big

McGraw not only won the female category Saturday, but the veteran Thomas Memorial 5-miler winner also came in first in the Thomas Memorial Hospital corporate category.
"It was nice and cool today," said McGraw. "Last weekend I ran in Virginia Beach and the temperature was in the 105° Heat Index."
Walkers also enjoyed cool temperatures and camaraderie in Saturday's
event. Their start sounded immediately after the runners. "It's a
nice walk," said Juanita Cook. "It doesn't get enough credit."
Thumbs up to Thomas Memorial Hospital, says Marcus Speaker. "It's really nice when pharmaceutical companies and health care professionals can work together in an event like this which benefits not only Thomas Memorial Hosptial but the community as well."

Q: What was the emphasis of the gala?
Paul Savramis: The emphasis was on promoting education. Rising Stars and our donors want to make sure that every child has the opportunity to receive a solid education.

Paul Savramis: We honored CEO Thomas Quinlan III of RR Donnelly and Sons as Man of the Year. We also awarded Heather Robinson, President of the Robinson Family Foundation, and ESPN's Jay Bilas the Humanitarian and Youth Advocate awards.
Q: Where you happy with the turnout?
Paul Savramis: Absolutely. We had more than 300 guests attend the dinner. It was the foundation's most successful gala, to-date. I feel that each year, this dinner gets better and bigger; that speaks volumes as to the work we do.
Q: What is the most satisfying part about the annual gala?
Paul Savramis: I always appreciate the generous donors and sponsors that have supported the foundation throughout the years.

Q: What was the highlight of the evening?
Paul Savramis: The event was emceed by ESPN and Rising Stars alumni, Jay Williams. Jay is a former player of mine and a great friend. He does a fantastic job at every event and throughout the year. The special guest appearance by CBS sports' Bill Rafferty roast of Jay Bilas was amazing, too.
Paul Savramis and Rising Stars Youth Foundation continue to help youth remain motivated, positive, learn to cope with adversity, develop leadership skills, and – most importantly- aspire to achieve success both on and off the court.

Yerevan, Armenia – One of the happiest surprises this year for the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 came from Armenia. An interesting and artistic representative will go to Copenhagen to fight hard and perhaps bring the trophy to Yerevan. The team of oikotimes.com has the honour to have the first web interview of Aram MP3.http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=x7HDPn9Ig98
When were you approached by Armenian national broadcaster? Did you accept the offer immediately?
It was a real surprise for me, New Year surprise. I got this offer from AMPTV in December and of course accepted it. Though it's a huge responsibility I'm ready to go for it and try to bring the show to our wonderful country.
Do you know how your song will look like? Will it be entirely in English or there will be a part in some other language?
Now many songs are being composed by different local and European composers, also by me. Togather with AMPTV creative team we'll choose the best one for me. Dont know yet it will be totally English or Armenian song , mix of Armenian and English, but I'm sure it won't be in Korean.
Are you planing to visit some other national finals after your present your song? Do you plan to go to Eurovision concert in Amsterdam?
Hope so, it's the biggest party-concert before Eurovision, so we'll try to get therw. Of course as soon as song is ready to public we'll try to spread it through Europe.
Since the two semifinals format was introduced, this year the number of countries that will participate is the lowest. How do you feel about it?
It doesn't change anything; we still have to compete and try to be in top 10 in semi-finals. And still there will be 25/6 countries in final. Difficult competition as always.
Do you thing that Armenia and Azerbaijan will give some points to each other this year?
Don't think so, but hope one day there will be total peace in the world and kindness will rule the world.
Things in green-room can get really tense. Since you finished med school, do you think you will be helpful in case of emergency?
Ha! of course, I'll be the first aid of Green Room I wonder who will be my fist aid… Hope she will be beautiful
I guess that ESC is your primary focus now, but do you have any ideas or plans what are you going to do after it?
Well, making international career depends on the success in ESC 2014. Anyway I'll continue my musical career, because its my nature, it's the world I live in.
What do you expect to gain or lose of your participation at Eurovision? Also what is the result you are expecting to achieve there?
I'll gain new fans, new friends, much attention, opportunities… Maybe I'll lose my consciousness in the green room when I win, but hope my first beautiful aid will be near.
If you don't qualify for the final, do you how would you feel? Do you think in that case your fans will be disappointed?
If you have real fans, they won't be disappointed anyway, but they will be on heavens If I pass (smiles). So I'll do my best. Europe don't disappoint my fan's, please!
When he appears on stage one doesn't know what to expect – a unique live concert or a good comedy show. This multi-talented artist is one of the most hardworking and positive personalities of Armenian Music Industry and Television. Aram Mp3 / Aram Sargsyan/ born in Yerevan, on April 5, 1984, is an Armenian singer-songwriter, comedian and showman.
Being simply in love with a stage he was much involved in school activities, choir singing and theatrical performances since early childhood. Though always dreaming about big stage, Aram chose a profession of pharmacist, graduating the State Medical University Of RA. Active student life in different comedy contests brought him to "32 teeth" TV Show , where he did stand ups and parodies of famous singers. During one of the shows his colleague did a joke calling him Mp3, after that everyone started to call him Aram Mp3. That's how he got his nickname. The same year on 2007 he became the winner of the most popular TV Show of The First Channel of Armenia "2 stars".
Developing his singing talent Aram MP3 began to perform live in jazz and blues clubs of Yerevan, record songs and shoot music videos. Famous TV shows such as "X- Factor", "Armenian Idol", "My name is", "Power of 10" were hosted by him and brought him more fame.
Now he is a member of the most popular "Vitamin Club" project, a comedy show broadcast weekly on Shant TV. Every month he gives live concerts with bands in popular music halls of Yerevan singing unique covers of famous hits and his own singles.

The Georgia Institute of Technology has long been known as a leader in education and innovative solutions to a multitude of challenges. Through the focused efforts of more than 50 faculty, staff, and students over the past two years, the Commission on Creating the Next in Education (CNE) has identified a series of recommendations and actions that will place Georgia Tech at the forefront of innovative educational institutions.
The Commission, launched by Provost Rafael Bras, has conducted extensive research and explored innovative approaches to higher education that address the changing needs of learners and educators alike, including ways to improve effectiveness, increase access, reduce costs, and meet the needs of workforce development today and well into the future.
The results of this effort are now available in the report entitled "Deliberate Innovation, Lifetime Education." The report is centered on a commitment to a lifetime education – a promise to an increasingly diverse group of learners to provide an educational experience that is highly individualized and sustainable for their entire lifetime.
Our students, advisory boards, alumni, and industry partners have all confirmed the need for continual education, and because technology changes so quickly, graduates can no longer earn a bachelor's – or even master's or a Ph.D. – and expect to be educated for a lifetime. Their lifetime educational needs may well require that they obtain additional educational credentials beyond their original educational accomplishments and achievements – things like, mini-mesters or individualized educational solutions as part of the concept of episodic educational experiences. The possibilities are endless and will only be limited by their individualized educational needs and career demands.
I want to express my appreciation and gratitude to the commission members who used the same type of forward-looking thinking we engaged in when we launched Georgia Tech's strategic plan, Designing the Future, almost nine years ago. Just as we have had many exciting initiatives that built on the concepts introduced in our strategic planning process, this report presents a series of bold and potentially transformative initiatives, grounded in the innovative and creative thinking of the Commission report.
Using this report as a basis for how we think about the future of education in the 21st century, together we can continue our culture of innovation as we define the research university of the 21st century and provide a well-defined pathway to a lifelong education for our students and alumni.

Association launches new publication on the UK's essential dimension stone industry
THE Mineral Products Association (MPA) is launching a new publication, 'Dimension Stone – an Essential UK Industry', with the aim of achieving greater consistency in the decision-making by planning authorities and other regulators across the country.
Dimension stone producers are economically and culturally significant, producing around one million tonnes of high-value stone annually, which as well as being used widely in new construction is also of key importance to heritage assets and local distinctiveness.
Michael Poultney of Albion Stone, a leading member of the MPA Dimension Stone Group, said: 'Our sites are generally quite small and unobtrusive. We work with and alongside the communities where they are situated, and in many places have been doing that for hundreds of years.'
The industry provides high-quality, high-value products which are increasingly finding favour with architects and are essential to the conservation of the UK's historic buildings.
In addition, in terms of their economic and social significance, dimension stone producers punch well above their weight. Their operations provide employment and training opportunities in locations where few would otherwise exist, and often they play an ongoing part in the social history of communities.
Nevertheless, current operators feel that these particular values are too easily overlooked by planning authorities and other regulators.
It is specifically to get these messages across that the MPA has produced the publication 'Dimension Stone – an Essential UK Industry'. The document outlines what dimension stone is, why the industry is so important, and what issues planners need to take on board when they are making provision for a continuing supply of these vital building materials.
Ken Hobden, director of planning at the MPA, commented: 'Our hope is that by setting out the facts about dimension stone in this way, we will save time and achieve greater consistency in decision-making. Up and down the country our members find they need to explain the same basic points to planners time and time again.'
Good news for small quarry owners.

How long after gynecomastia is compression shirt worn?
For how long after the surgery for his gynecomastia will my husband have to wear a compression garment? He will be having his surgery in early June and he's concerned that maybe he should wait until the fall so that his compression shirt won't be so noticeable as it would be if he had to wear it in July. Can you please give us an idea of how long?
I usually tell my patients to wear a compression shirt for 6 weeks from surgery. Depending on the postoperative amount of swelling, it could be more or less than that, since everyone heals at a slightly different rate. Best of luck to your husband!
Dr. Jonathan Heistein has 2 Gynecomastia Reduction before & afters:
I advise my patients to wear a gynecomastia compression shirt for approximately four to six weeks following gynecomastia surgery. After the six week point, he may wish to continue wearing the compression body shirt when exercising, but it's not obligatory.
Regarding your husband's thoughts about waiting until the fall:
That's a personal preference and it does make some sense.
He should be aware, however, that there are compression tank top style "gynecomastia shirts" that are easily concealed under a short sleeve shirt or T-shirt. Ask your plastic surgeon when these can be worn instead of the compression vest. Some patients wear the vest at home and a more athletic style compression garment when outside.
Athletic-style compression shirts are made from a nylon spandex material and are nearly as good as traditional compression vests. In general, compression tops make the recovery period much more comfortable. You may want to take a look at the options on Amazon.com together. I think you'll probably agree that compression crew necks and tanks look very athletic and not like traditional compression chest binders.
Surgery to correct gynecomastia can have positive, life-changing effects and provide an important boost to self-esteem. If your husband is suffering with "man boobs" I encourage you to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss surgical options sooner rather than later -- especially if he's already started experiencing discomfort or pain from his condition.
Dr. Landon Pryor has 4 Gynecomastia reduction before & afters:
After male breast reduction surgery I advise my patients to wear a compression top for a minimum four weeks, and ideally for six weeks. After the four week point, wearing compression shirts is up to the patient. For the first three or four days following surgery, I'd recommend not removing the compression garment at all.
Wearing a compression shirt will reduce swelling during the postoperative period and accelerate healing overall. Some patients prefer wearing the shirts for an additional two weeks for a total of eight, especially when exercising. But it's not necessarily required.
It's also fine to remove the compression shirt when showering.
I personally don't think it's necessary for you to wait until the fall for your surgery. If you do a Google or Amazon search for men's compression body wear or "gynecomastia tank top", you'll find plenty of high quality short sleeve and compression tank tops that look very athletic and are easily worn under a T-shirt.
There are dozens of companies who make excellent products to give your body a very toned look while recovering, so there's no reason to avoid wearing them over the summer.
That said, you should talk with your plastic surgeon about whether these athletic style shirts will be sufficient in your husband's specific case.
Usually 4-6 weeks is sufficient time to wear a compression shirt after having Gynecomastia surgery. After that, I advise my patients to wear it only during exercise for the following 4 weeks. There are compression tank top style shirts available if your husband would like to hide it in the Summer. It is important to follow your Plastic Surgeons specific instructions after surgery. I hope this was helpful to you.
Best Wishes, Dr. B.
In my practice, compression for 4-6 weeks works best. After that, it has little to no effect. Since this elective surgery, you can have it done when your personal circumstances are best suited for it.

Blind Cat Helps His Grandma Get Cancer-Free with Hospital Visits and Cuddles September 28 2018, 0 Comments
Meet Donny. He's a cat.
He looks dapper in a cap. He's also completely blind.
Donny also has a condition known as cerebellar hypoplasia, "Wobbly Cat Syndrome", a neurological condition which causes him severe balance issues. His mom, who adopted him from foster parent Beth Stern, told the Dodo that Donny doesn't let his condition stop him. "He has no idea he's different so he does whatever everyone else is doing."
His conditions don't stop him from being an amazing therapy cat.
Donny's main duties as a therapy cat are to bond with patients by sitting in their laps and bringing them some much-needed comfort, and he truly seems to adore his very important job.
Donny regularly visits Alzheimers and dementia patients in nursing homes and hospitals.
"As soon as we get there he is an entirely different cat," Smith said. "I swear somehow he knows he has an important job to do. If we were at home he would never sit on someone's lap for that length of time."
And, sadly, when Donny's own grandma got sick, he knew just what to do.
Donny's grandmother (Smith's mother) was diagnosed with an aggressive form of lung cancer and moved into a hospital for a more than a month to receive radiation treatments.
After numerous tests, it was determined that at 88 she was not a candidate for surgery so they were going to give her 5 radiation treatments and send her home to a hospice situation.
Donny's mom immediately knew the perfect candidate to help cheer her up as she fought through intense radiation treatments. Smith started bringing Donny to the hospital regularly to visit his grandma.
And according to the family, it was incredible just how much the sweet, gentle blind cat seemed to help his grandmother heal.
"I immediately started bringing Donny there to cheer her up and it worked. He would lay on her for hours while she petted him, often both falling asleep," Smith recalls.
The Healing Power of a Blind Cat?
Maybe it's true what they say about the healing power of a cat's purr; because after 17 radiation treatments and weeks in the hospital (and plenty of visits from Donny), Smith's mother got the amazing news that she is cancer free.

"Home" by Michael Buble and Blake Shelton
Another Christmas day
will come and go away
but I got so far to go
but I wanna go home
I need to go home
Maybe surrounded by
strangers and Christmas lights
I shouldn't feel so alone
but I wanna go home
God, I miss you, you know
I can close my eyes and see the angel on the tree
a blanket of snow outside
and all my friends and family
and though I know that you're no farther than a call away
I need to see your face
a call could never be the same
Another Christmas day
Will come and go away
And I won't leave you alone
And I wanna go home
I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just to far from where you are
And I wanna go home
Now the reasons I'm so far away ain't good enough
What ever they need me for
I know that I need you more
So I'll do the things I got to do to get back to you
I need you to believe
I'll make it back by Christmas Eve
Another Christmas day will come and go away
And I won't leave you alone
No I'm gonna go home
I'm gonna be home
Though I'm surrounded by
This cold December night
I feel so alone
I'm gonna go home
Babe, I miss you, you know
Let me go home
I've had my run, baby I'm done
I'm coming back home
Let me go home
It'll all be alright
When I'm holding you tight
Cause this Christmas I'm home
These are the lyrics of a song entitled, "Home," by Michael Buble and Blake Shelton. For those of you who do not know who that is, I am sorry! They are two of my favorite singers. This version is their Christmas version of songs they both made popular in their respective genres. Michael Buble is the Bing Crosby of this era and is from Victoria, B.C. and Blake Shelton is a fantastic country singer who resides in Nashville, currently on "The Voice" on TV. The fact that they are personal friends with each other, just makes it that much more special. I love having a DVR and because my male family members really didn't want to watch a Michael Buble Christmas Special, I taped it for my own enjoyment. I could go on and on about what a great show it was (I loved Rod Stewart singing Christmas carols on there, and his duet with Michael) but that is not what I am blogging about. So, on to it….
I bawled like a baby. This song started it off and then song after song, I just cried. I put it on for background music while I cleaned the house. I did not get far (witness to the fact I am blogging and not cleaning) because I kept crying and crying. Do you ever get one of those days when the least thing makes you cry? Must be menopause! Anyway, I kept thinking about my sons. And their wives. And their babies. And then my father-in-law who died this past year. Then I moved on to my parents…my brother….my sister-in-law and all her kids….and I just crumbled. It seemed like each song was about missing loved ones during the holidays. If you think about it, almost all the old classics are about families seeing one another over Christmas (and yes, it is Christmas, not the Holidays, in all those songs, too!!) or missing one another over Christmas! I chose to wipe my eyes and I sat up straight and said a few Jesus Prayers (Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner) and then I threw in some Hail Mary's (Hail Mary, full of grace, have mercy on me a sinner) and then I just asked, "Lord, help me put this into perspective and turn my grief into joy, because your Son was born. That is what this is about. Help me with my Martha-tendencies and let me be more Mary-like."
And I found peace. And guess what song I then was humming? The Kontakion of the Preparation (Tone 3):
"Today the Virgin is on her way to the cave where she will give birth to the Eternal Word of God in an ineffable manner. Rejoice, therefore, O universe, when you hear this news, and glorify with the angels and the shepherds Him who shall appear as a newborn Babe, being God from all eternity."
This is a song, a Kontakion, that we sing repeatedly at Divine Liturgy, in preparation for Christmas. What is a Kontakion? Well, here you go:
A "kontakion" is a poetic form frequently encountered in Byzantine hymnography. It could best be described as a "sermon in verse accompanied by music". The main body of a kontakion was chanted from the ambo by a cleric (often a deacon; otherwise a reader) after the reading of the Gospel, while a choir, or even the whole congregation, joined in the refrain.
And I derived such peace from thinking, or pondering, over these events. As I rush around, in preparation to welcome my Mother-in-law, brother-in-law, two uncles, an aunt, and 4 dogs (all the while missing my sons and daughters-in-law and grandbabies) I am reminded of the preparation of Mary and Joseph. In this week, back in 0 B.C., they were ordered to leave all that was familiar to them – and all their family and friends – to obey the Roman law and have themselves counted in the census, in Joseph's home town. This Woman was 9 months pregnant with the Son of God, and was traipsing through the Middle East on the back of a donkey, sleeping under the stars at night. They get to Bethlehem (Bethlehem (לֶחֶם בֵּית ) "house of bread," which I totally love – nothing in Scripture is accidental) and find only a stable available. She is in labor and she has to crawl into a farmer's "cave" or "stable." Some traditions (and common to the era) hold that it was a cave, dug into the side of a hill, because it would have been the safest place for animals; cool in summer's heat, and warm in winter's chill. Nevertheless, Mary and Joseph are housed with animals, while the Mother of God labors to bring forth "God from all eternity."
Mary and Joseph did not know that they would never return home; that Joseph would be asked to protect the Son of God from death by Herod, and that they would flee directly to Egypt. And yes, I still miss my children and my grandchildren, and sometimes the missing is an actual aching. But I am in my warm home, surrounded by my things (especially all the ornaments my children have chosen over the years) and all the decorations and lights. My husband is employed (thanks be to God) and we are not jobless or homeless, nor are we burying our babes (as in CT). There is so much to be grateful for. And when I think of the sacrifice the Holy Family made for ME (because Christ came for each one of us, on a personal level) in order to fulfill the Word of God, I am humbled. I can wipe my tears and the ache recedes a little bit; and I can cling to my memories of Christmases past, when my babes were small and I smile. I know, deep in my heart, I am so very blessed. And even though, as in the lyrics, "I need to see your face;" the face of my children and grandchildren, I can ponder instead the face of God, reposing with His Mother Mary, the Mother of God, and St. Joseph, in the Cave! I will ponder Him Who is the "Eternal Word of God" and I can, therefore, rejoice with the angels and the shepherds, "God from all Eternity."

Be curious and uncover the real you
If I said to you, interrupt your thoughts, your internal dialogue – do you know what I mean? We all have an automatic pilot running in our heads, an annoying inner dialogue that when left unchecked can literally dictate how we feel, behave, think and therefore experience the world. The chatter is normally negative, critical and limiting. Statements like 'you can't do that because of that' for example, the 'you're not good
We all suffer this. But we can choose whether to automatically believe it!
Take one of your leading negative thoughts. Really allowing it in and hold on to it. Once you have given yourself permission to really feel that thought about yourself, now question it…
- Is it true?
- Where has this come from?
- Why I am choosing to believe this?
- What does this look/feel like if I turn it around; 'I can do this because…' for instance?
This is a simple, playful way to interrupt your thinking patterns which are possibly so ingrained that they are now beliefs. Self-limiting beliefs that you are basing your next step on…By being curious about yourself, you get to understand your motives, patterns and retrospect of previous situations AND therefore putting you in the driving seat of your next choice!
Yes, you can choose every thought, word, action, dream, goal, desire – they're all yours!
Why settle for the quagmire of doubts and limits? It's never too late to change your mind and it is easier when you step in playfully with a childlike curiosity. It takes the sting out, making it easier not to take it personally. The reality is – it doesn't mean anything anyway, not really. It's not happening right now, it's just a thought, therefore it is not real! Let that truth resonate for a moment…
So fellow human traveller of the self – be curious about yourself.
Contact me today and book a 30 minute your time for mine. This is a great way to see if coaching or coaching with me is for you. Use the book form, email or call me. Go on, you are reading this after all!

Looking Forward to Heaven?
Have you ever been away from your home or birthplace for an extended period of time and received a warm welcome from your family or friends upon your return? Wasn't it good to find that you were missed? That people looked forward to seeing you?
When I am on the road for a speaking or singing ministry and have to be away for a few days, an overnight, or simply for the day, I look forward to returning home, because I know my husband will say, "Honey, I missed you while you were gone."
Sometimes I'm the one on the other end of the "welcome home"; waiting for my husband to return home after an absence.
My husband, David, goes away for personal prayer and reflection retreats a few times a year; he does this to get a renewed sense of God's leading for the church which he pastors, for his other ministries, and for our personal lives. I always miss him when he's away, even though I maintain a sense of his presence during those absences. When here, his presence fills our home and when he is away everything in our home speaks of him. There is no time when he has to be away that I don't look forward to his return and our "catch-up" times.
Sometimes I even miss David when he is merely putting in a long day in his office in our walk-in basement, and I'm one floor up, in my writing corner of our reading room. I enjoy having lunch with him on those days, or look forward to our afternoon coffee break. I like meeting with him.
One of my Facebook friends posted something today that spoke to me of home-comings. She was reading to her 8-year-old daughter, Joy, a passage from Isaiah that pictures heaven. Her daughter said she was thinking about some people she wanted to see when she goes to heaven besides family and friends, – which list included some Bible characters, including the 12 disciples. Then she thoughtfully added:
"I especially want to meet God! There is no point in going if you don't want to meet God!"
Wow, the wisdom of a child! I stopped and thought about that statement. There are many people who hope they will end up in heaven, but it has little or nothing to do with wanting to meet God. They have no longing for Him; they just don't want the alternative – heaven is the preferred choice for their future residence.
A lot of people facing illness or death think about going to heaven when they die. But I can't help wondering; what are they expecting? a welcome home? from whom? Are they more excited about seeing a loved one who has passed on – a mother, a father, brother, sister, cousin, or friend, or some famous person – than they are about seeing God?
Fact is, some of us who love the Lord will never "go to heaven". I hope that doesn't scare you.
In the Bible we read that one day Jesus will return to earth to sort things out at the battle of Armageddon. At that time He will set to right all the things we earthlings have messed up by living under the influence of our sin nature, rather than the Spirit-imparted new nature. Many of us look forward to His return. However, if we are still alive when he returns, we won't go to heaven at all . . . heaven will come to us.
As the Apostle John reports to us in the book of the Revelation:
"Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth,"* for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death'** or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." (Revelation 21:1-4 – NIV)
The rest of chapter 21 describes the heavenly city. Then chapter 22 continues:
"Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever." (Rev. 22:1-5)
If you are not enjoying God's presence now as a part of your daily life, it's not likely you will enjoy heaven then. Nor will you look forward to hearing the Lord say to you, "Welcome home, my child."
Are you looking forward to "meeting God" face to face, or just making it to heaven? As Joy asked her mom, "What's the point in that?"

Hands Off: I Can Do It Myself!
As we enter this New Year – 2013 – I'd like to encourage you to ask, and allow, God to direct your life this year. This article is a re-post from two years ago; I believe most of us need a reminder, from time to time, to place our life in the Potter's hands – and fully trust Him to shape us according to His master design. Enjoy and apply.
Have you ever taught a Sunday School class? There are priceless lessons to be learned there from the children.
One Sunday I taught a group of kids in our junior church hour. Due to a shortage of teachers, it was necessary to combine those of kindergarten age with the kids up through 4th grade. We were talking about God keeping His promises to us; when He says something, He does it.
I asked the kids to list some of God's promises on the dry erase board. Of course, everybody wanted to write on the board, including one very precocious 5 year-old named Hannah, who was just beginning to print. She went confidently to the board. I asked her to write, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." She said, "I don't know how to write that." So I assigned an older child, Katie, to assist her.
Katie proceeded to take the marker from the younger child, but I stopped her and suggested that she place her hand over Hannah's hand to help her to form the letters to spell the words. As Katie attempted to move Hannah's hand in the shape of each letter, Hannah persisted in trying to move the marker in a different direction.
"Hannah," said Katie, "make your hand like Jello so I can move it." It worked for one letter, then, Hannah tried to take over again, though she had no idea how to spell the words. Frustrated with the process Katie again gave the directive, "Hannah, make your hand like Jello."
The two girls worked through the short verse, but at the last word, "you", Hannah insisted she could do it by herself. Katie removed her hand and Hannah formed a Y without the tail, then, a very good O, followed by an upside down U. Katie took the marker from Hannah, added the tail to the Y, and put the U right-side up. I did not miss the obvious lesson in that "team" endeavor.
Sometimes we think we know what we are doing and charge full-steam ahead on our own strength or know-how. Then we realize we "don't know how to write that". However, we don't want to turn the marker over to God, so we let Him "help us". But the battle has just begun; we shift back and forth between letting Him guide our hand and taking the control back into our own hand.
After a while, God says to us, "let go of the controls" – in other words, "make your hand like Jello". When we do become Jello, things turn out well. But we get tired of not being in control, so we attempt to take over again. Finally He says, "Okay, do it your way." And we proceed to do our immature, barely legible job while He stands patiently on the side-line, knowing He will eventually have to add the tail to our "Y" and put the "U" right-side up.
How about you? Is it hard for you to "make your hand like Jello"?

As a general rule, the most successful man in life is the man who has the best information
The Federal Reserve thinks recent economic news from the U.S. is good:
- Jobs are being created
- Consumers are spending money
- Trade & manufacturing growth is strong
So on Dec. 18th 2013, they announced a decelerating QE III environment.
"In light of the cumulative progress toward maximum employment and the improvement in the outlook for labour market conditions, the committee decided to modestly reduce the pace of its asset purchases." Outgoing chairman of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke
If job gains continue and inflation increases, "I imagine we'll continue to do, probably at each meeting, a measured reduction in buying." Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke
Current Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke will be replaced, early in the new year, by Janet Yellen who is said to have endorsed the tapering decision.
The Fed reiterated that it plans to hold its key short-term rate at a record low, "well past the time that the unemployment rate declines below 6.5 per cent" and the inflation outlook remains mild. The Fed has held the fed-funds target rate between zero and .25% since 2008.
"To support continued progress toward maximum employment and price stability, the Committee today reaffirmed its view that a highly accommodative stance of monetary policy will remain appropriate for a considerable time after the asset purchase program ends and the economic recovery strengthens. The Committee also reaffirmed its expectation that the current exceptionally low target range for the federal funds rate of 0 to 1/4 percent will be appropriate at least as long as the unemployment rate remains above 6-1/2 percent, inflation between one and two years ahead is projected to be no more than a half percentage point above the Committee's 2 percent longer-run goal, and longer-term inflation expectations continue to be well anchored." Federal Reserve
Background Leading to Quantitative Easing
Overheated US housing prices started dropping in 2006. Homeowners were going underwater (they owed more than the house was worth) and many had questionable credit – "fog the mirror loans" were common, if you breathed you got a loan. Banks sold these mortgages to agencies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They bundled the mortgages with other loans bearing similar interest rates and then sold them as Mortgage-backed securities (MBS), so called because their value was backed or secured by the value of the underlying mortgages.
An MBS is therefore a derivative because its value is derived from the underlying asset –the mortgage that was often underwater and held by someone with bad credit.
The Federal Reserve started easing monetary policy aggressively throughout 2008. By December of 2008, the federal funds rate was between 0 and 1/4 percent. Additional stimulus was injected by expanding the holdings of longer term securities. The System Open Market Account (SOMA) purchased mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae (agency MBS).
Broad Based Programs
"On numerous occasions in 2008 and 2009, the Federal Reserve Board invoked emergency authority under the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 to authorize new broad-based programs and financial assistance to individual institutions to stabilize financial markets. Loans outstanding for the emergency programs peaked at more than $1 trillion in late 2008." Government Accountability Office (GAO)
The Term Auction Facility was $40 billion in loans to rescue the banks. It wasn't near enough. The Treasury department got authorization to spend $150 billion more to subsidize and eventually take over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They also bailed out AIG.
Dollar Swap Lines exchanged dollars with foreign central banks for foreign currency to help address disruptions in dollar funding markets abroad.
The Term Securities Lending Facility auctioned loans of U.S. Treasury securities to primary dealers against eligible collateral.
The Primary Dealer Credit Facility provided overnight cash loans to primary dealers against eligible collateral.
The Asset-Backed Commercial Paper Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility provided loans to depository institutions and their affiliates to finance purchases of eligible asset-backed commercial paper from money market mutual funds.
The Commercial Paper Funding Facility provided loans to a special purpose vehicle to finance purchases of new issues of asset-backed commercial paper and unsecured commercial paper from eligible issuers.
The Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility supported the issuance of asset-backed securities (ABS) collateralized by loans related to autos, credit cards, education, and small businesses. In March 2009, the Fed announced that it was expanding the scope of the TALF program to allow loans against additional types of collateral.
Late in 2008 there was a run on ultra safe money market accounts – according to AMG Data Services a record $140 billion was pulled out in one day.
The Troubled Asset Recovery Program was proposed and $350 billion was approved by Congress – the money was used to buy bank and automotive stocks.
The initial Fed response to the subprime mortgage crisis was to lower interest rates, then, having no traditional tools left in its toolbox the Fed introduced a new policy – quantitative easing (QE).
Quantitative Easing
In September of 2008 the $1.7 trillion QE1 was started. The Fed purchased mostly mortgage backed securities and established a commercial paper lending facility.
In October of 2010 QE2 started. At $600 billion, QE2 was much smaller then QE1 and its buying was mostly confined to purchasing long term government bonds.
Operation Twist
In September 2011, the Fed launched Operation Twist. Operation Twist is the Fed's initiative of buying longer-term Treasuries while simultaneously selling shorter-dated issues in order to bring down long-term interest rates.
By purchasing longer-term bonds, the Fed drives up prices which forces yields down – price and yield move in opposite directions. Selling shorter-term bonds causes their yields to go up because their prices fall. These two actions "twist" the shape of the yield curve, hence the name Operation Twist.
On September 13, 2012, the Fed announced QE3. It agreed to buy $40 billion in MBS, and continue Operation Twist, adding a total $85 billion of liquidity a month. Key components are:
- The creation of $40 billion a month to buy MBS's
- The continuation of Operation Twist #2
- An open-ended commitment to keep purchasing securities at whatever level is judged necessary until the labor market improves "substantially"
- An extension of the 0.0% to 0.25% target range for the Fed Funds rate until at least mid 2015
On December 18th the Fed announced a QE3 tapering of $10b a month, the first cutback in bond purchases was to be split evenly between the purchases of MBS's and Operation Twist.
Quantitative Easing Success?
Let's take a look at why the Fed decided to start tapering.
Below are two charts showing the effects of the successive Quantitative Easing and Twist programs on the DOW.
The Federal Reserve started QE I November 25th, 2008. QE II was started in June 2011. In September 2011, the Fed launched Operation Twist. On September 13, 2012, the Fed announced QE3.
Below is a five year chart of the S&P 500.
Industrial Production in the United States increased 3.20 percent in November of 2013 yoy. Industrial Production in the U.S. has averaged 3.90 percent from 1920 until 2013.
Durable goods orders jumped 3.5 percent in November as demand increased for a range of goods, including aircraft, machinery, and computers and electronic products.
Core capital goods, a category that tracks business investment, rose 4.5%, the biggest gain since January. This category is seen as a gauge of business plans to expand and modernize and as a measure of business confidence.
"The increases in these so-called core capital goods orders and in durable goods orders over all suggested strength in manufacturing and were further evidence of a firming economic growth outlook." REUTERS, Orders for Durable Goods Surged 3.5% in November
- October exports of goods and services (2.7 billion), exports of goods (5.3 billion), and exports of services (.4 billion) were the highest on record.
- October imports of goods and services (3.3 billion) were the highest since March 2012 (4.3 billion).
- October petroleum exports (.5 billion) were the highest on record.
The two charts below, from Markit Economics, suggest the pace of global expansion, although uneven, has risen substantially over the past year. At the forefront of the year long expansion are upturns in both manufacturing and global trade.
Consumer spending is a key driver of growth in the U.S., providing two-thirds of economic demand. GDP and employment are backward-looking indicators. For clues to the future look at sentiment surveys. The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan index of consumer sentiment rose to 82.5 in December from 75.1 in November.
Consumer spending is slowly climbing. From the Wall Street Journal we get the following chart.
What about a housing recovery, after all that's what started this mess way back in 2006.
Trulia's Housing Barometer shows that 3 of the 5 key housing indicators are on track towards a full recovery:
- Non-distressed sales and home prices are approaching normal levels and could reach them in 2014.
- Delinquencies + foreclosures are improving although normal might not be reached until late 2014 or early 2015.
The red flags are construction starts and young-adult employment, both of which are definitely closer to recession levels than to normal. However if you believe all the data presented you won't have much of a hard time believing these two will come around given time.
U.S. GDP is creeping up.
U.S. unemployment numbers are slowly edging down and are almost back to pre-November 2008 levels.
The Deficit seems to be coming under control. The following is from the U.S. Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
"The federal government incurred a budget deficit of 0 billion in fiscal year 2013, which was 9 billion less than the deficit in fiscal year 2012. The fiscal year that just ended marked the first time since 2008 that the deficit was under trillion. As a share of the nation's gross domestic product (GDP), the deficit declined from 6.8 percent in 2012 to 4.1 percent in 2013. The deficit was 1.1 percent of GDP in 2007, prior to the recent recession."
Interest rates
The Fed has moved to a tighter monetary stance while most other major central banks – except the Bank of England – have moved to a looser one. You would have to think that's dollar supportive – meaning a stronger dollar. BUT, the Federal Reserve's forward guidance pledging to keep short-term interest rates low is going to counteract that until rates do indeed start to rise.
A sharp narrowing of the yield differences – from 2.55% to 2.15% – between medium (five year) and long-dated (30 year) treasuries since the Fed announced the taper start is an excellent gauge as to how traders' view changes in the Fed's interest rate policy and its bond purchase program. The narrowing means traders are worried the Fed's forward guidance of keeping short-term policy rates near zero if unemployment stays high and inflation remains stuck below its 2 percent target does not carry a lot of credibility.
Currently, Federal funds futures are implying traders are pricing in a 56 percent chance of a rate rise in June 2015, up from 39 percent from a month ago.
If the Fed aren't buying, and indeed might become net sellers of their t balance sheet, other parties are going to have to pick up the slack. And that means higher interest rates are going to be needed to entice future buyers of government debt if the Fed, as buyers of last resort, quit buying.
Interest rates do matter, a lot. They affect the cost of borrowing for homes and business investment. They affect the rates paid on deposits and savings and also set the risk-free rate of return which is important for assessing returns from other asset classes like shares, bonds, precious metals, commodities and property. Here's an excellent example – an increase in Treasury yields means a return to a positive real interest rate environment which, historically, is a headwind for gold prices.
The economic news certainly isn't all rosy, just do a little digging. Remember there's still a $761b deficit (I reported the deficit as $680b, but it counted a one-time Fannie Mae $50b payment and a $30b deferred payment). The quality of jobs being created is suspect, most are part time/low wage positions, and income isn't climbing. Also worrisome is the fact the much talked about increase in consumer spending is from existing savings, that's not sustainable even in the short-term. Of course, from a historical viewpoint the housing market still looks weak in all of Trulia's Housing Barometer five sectors.
Could tapering be reversed? Of course it could, Ben Bernanke, outgoing Federal Reserve chief might of shut QEIII down too early (he has twice before w/QEI&QEII, maybe third time lucky?). Bernanke just committed to showing the world his policies have been, are, a success. If they were he wants the credit, not have it given to his successor. If he's wrong, well there's always Yellen to take the blame for torpedoing his economic recovery.
It certainly appears that there's a global recovery underway and it's being led by the U.S. The Fed has even given itself a successful report card and started to taper.
Expect a stronger U.S. dollar and higher interest rates late in 2014 or early 2015.
Is that on your radar screen?
If not, it should be.

I absolutely love the upcoming Advanced Pet System. It really seems like it'll be a good time. Sure the mini-games to train our precious pet companions will be a bit redundant after a while but totally worth it. The amazing farmers over at Wizard101 Central are really working hard to find out everything you could ever want to know about new pets. Some are even conducting breeding experiments under the watchful eyes of Dr. Purreau.
What do you think will be the most enjoyable part of the new pet system? Will you spend money to breed pets? Comment away to share your thoughts!

If you are looking for a light and easy summer dish, try this Mango Mahi Mahi recipe. The fish is simply grilled and finished with a flavor packed mango topping.
Mango Mahi Mahi
Mahi Mahi is a readily available fish these days and it's firm mild flesh both stands up well to grilling and taking of flavors. Mangos are also plentiful and due to mahi mahi not being too "fishy" I think it pairs well. Adding a bit of heat from fresh hot peppers and some gentle tang from rice wine vinegar really makes this a guest ready dish. Enjoy!

Lofty passage grave
The passage grave near Østrup on West Zealand is called a twin passage grave". It has two adjoining chambers, each with its own entrance. The Østrup passage graves are a total of 16 metres long with almost two metres from floor to ceiling. This makes them one of…
The mysterious row of stones
In 2007, during restoration work on the ruin of Østrup passage grave some of the earthen mound was excavated at the back. A long row of round stones stretching more than three metres was unearthed at ground level. It had been covered by the mound. Stone Age people had put them there but the stones had only been visible while they were building the passage graves. The row of stones is not set out in the direction of the passages. It is not at right angles to the chambers and does not even follow one of the four points of the compass. So we have no idea what the stones symbolised. They are one of the many mysteries surrounding the passage graves and their use.

Eschmann highlights Dallas-based Nomad Dental – Mobile service for accessible care
The idea behind mobile dentistry is nothing new. Historically, dentists would visit patients in their homes to provide treatment to those who needed it most. However, as time went by and dentistry became more accessible to the masses, dental practices became the norm. Today you're much more likely to book an appointment and make the journey to the practice if you require dental care.
Unless you live in Dallas, Texas, where Nomad Dental brings back the service of old. This mobile dental practice travels around the downtown area, servicing four different locations on a bi-monthly rotation schedule, which means they can provide more patients with the dental services they need.
Offering everything from dental x-rays, cleaning, fillings, dentures and more, Nomad Dental provides an all-encompassing service for people who need treatment. Appointments are booked online in advance, meaning those who work in nearby offices can have a check-up during their lunch break then go straight back to work.
So, how did Nomad Dental come about and what are the challenges mobile dentistry can bring? Anna Cowdin, dentist and co-founder of the company explains: "I started Nomad Dental because I didn't want to commit to settling down in one location. After working for a number of years in various dental offices and looking at other mobile dentistry services available I just felt I could follow the concept and do it better.
"Our moveable practice is fully fitted and doesn't require any water or power from the locations we visit. We wanted to make it as appealing as possible to our patients – we didn't want them to feel like they were getting into the back of a van."
Due to the mobility of the service that Nomad Dental provides, it has its fair share of challenges that must be overcome.
"I think the biggest challenge for us is parking. But when it comes to the everyday hurdles we face for being a mobile unit it really all comes down to size and efficiency.
"As we have much less space than a traditional practice we need to ensure that we are on top of every aspect, always know what we need and try to reduce waste where possible. The practice is solar-powered and has its own water supply, so that means we need to be particularly careful not to waste any water or power during the day.
"We also need to make sure that people are aware of our services. Before we go to each location we set up a table in the surrounding office blocks where people can ask us any questions and find out what we do. We do this because people often think that we only offer very simple services because of our size – but this isn't the case."
Nomad Dental is mobile
Because Nomad Dental is mobile it also has to follow different protocols to those imposed on stationary practices by the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners (TSBDE).
"We have the same regulations in place for biohazard control and sharps, but the TBSDE actually regulates mobile practices and mobile X-rays. This also affects our approach to infection control, as the state needs to know everything we have on board.
"We use both an ultrasonic dental instrument cleaner and an autoclave, and these are both built-in, just as they would be in a regular practice. The main differences for us is that because we move around a lot there's a worry that our autoclave may be damaged in transit, but thankfully we haven't had a problem yet.
"To make sure everything is running smoothly we always come in around half an hour early to check the power supply – and when we move between locations we always pack away the smaller equipment so that it doesn't get jostled about when we're on the road. Setting this back up when we reach a new location gives us the perfect opportunity to perform the necessary checks on all our equipment.
"Being mobile does mean that we have to run the autoclave a lot more though, especially as we have limited space. We autoclave all of our instruments in bags after use and store them in our cabinets. Plus, we need to keep the distilled water on board – meaning we have to monitor these things carefully to keep running at our optimum standards."
Providing people with a mobile alternative to traditional dental practices has its challenges, but practices like Nomad Dental are in the vanguard of transforming the way dental care is delivered. By taking old fashioned values and refreshing them for a 21st century audience, Anna and her team have given downtown Dallas residents a unique alternative to traditional services.
Anna Cowdin completed a BA in Psychology at Wake Forest University, before attending Roseman University College of Dental Medicine. She is the co-owner and practitioner for Nomad Dental and the founder of Flossy Fix – a quarterly, dentist-curated hygiene box delivered to patients' doors.
Anna was interviewed as part of the Dentistry in 'unusual environments', series sponsored by decontamination specialist Eschmann. For more information about the range of decontamination equipment and products available from EschmannDirect, visit www.eschmann.co.uk or call 01903 753322

Squamous epithelial carcinoma is the main type of cancer occurring in the nose and sinuses. Adenocarcinomas, olfactory neuroblastoma, sarcomas, and other tumor forms also occur.
The nasal cavity includes:
The sinuses include:
The nose and sinuses include the mucosa of the upper airways and olfactory epithelium.
Treatment for cancer in the nose and sinuses has significant impact on the patient's speech and appearance. How extensive the changes will be depends on the site and stage of the tumor. In order to reduce the burdens treatment may cause the patient, thorough information and follow-up are very important (2).
I 2015 there were 39 new cases of cancer in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses in Norway (1). The disease affects men more often than women.
The average age for all sites in the head and neck region is about 64 years.

Darren returns for his second year with the Silvertips after replacing longtime Education Coordinator Sam Calles, who worked with the club for eight seasons. He works closely with Everett's school-aged players, their parents, Everett High School and the Silvertips coaching staff to ensure that all players have the opportunity to succeed academically while fulfilling their responsibilities to the team. He also helps coordinate online collegiate courses for both high school and college-aged players.
Originally from Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Darren played in the WHL from 1986 to 1989 with the Regina Pats and Brandon Wheat Kings. He currently resides with his wife and son in Lake Stevens, where he teaches sixth and seventh grade Language Arts and study skills at Lake Stevens Middle School.

For those of you that have wondered, "What is geology all about?" the following pages will show you that it's not just about rock classification and banging around with rock hammers. Geology at the University of St. Thomas is about understanding how the Earth works, inside and out, and all that this implies for understanding a whole host of environmental and resource issues.
The University of St. Thomas geology program is a great place to do interdisciplinary science, integrating chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering to understand the Earth. The geology program also plays a key role in the Environmental Science BS degree at UST, which brings together all of the science departments at the university. More recent projects include Examining Piping Plover Habitat Loss in North Dakota, Examining nutrient histories in Twin Cities metro area lakes, and Examining Alkaline Lakes in the Southwest.
The Geology Department will provide an academically challenging program that welcomes all students into science, encourages them to grow as morally responsible individuals and stewards of the planet, and creates scientifically-informed problem-solvers.

Type Artist, Venue, Event or Festival name
'Insecure' is known not only for being a dope show, but for having one of the best soundtracks on television right now. Issa Rae and her team do a great job of not only discovering and exposing new talent, but putting in the songs that everybody is rocking to at the moment. The man behind the soundtrack for the series, Kier Lehman, confirmed in an interview that the Louisville singer is going to premiere new music in the third episode of 'Insecure' season 2.
Tiller isn't the only artist who is using the show as a platform for musical promotion, a bunch of other artists have premieres within this season as well. Lehman told Vulture, "We have upcoming music from Dreezy this week and Kari Faux, who wrote a song specifically for us. There's new Jorja Smith in the first episode that's not released. In episode three, we have a new song from TT the Artist that'll probably be on our soundtrack. We'll also have new music from Bryson Tiller, Jazmine Sullivan, and BOSCO. And we'll be featuring new music from Miguel."
The second episode of 'Insecure' is coming out this Sunday, so tune in for some awkward moments and hella good music.
