text: This is about my youngest daughter. She is 19. She has been married for a year and a half. She is very much in love with her husband, as he claims and cries over her. The problem is that he does little snide remarks to her, and she to him, I am sure. They both have thrown things, and now, he has resorted to the physical side with threats of bodily harm. I will note that she has a big mouth and knows it. Everytime a breakup is in the news, they both cry. He wants her back, then doesn't, but can't stay away from her. He is 21. He always says he is sorry. The whole family loves both of them very much. I fear at times that she might be in real danger, but then again, I don't know how much is an exaggeration. She is a very emotional person and high achiever, and so is he. Although, he can cry like a baby over her. At this point, I would want her to start over again with her life and forget him if she were in true danger, but then, I would hate for them to lose the deep love they have for each other. It just doesn't make any sence to me. On the other hand, I have never been hit by anyone. He just didn't seem like the kind of person that could do that, and he denies it except for one slap. He wants a divorce, and then the next minute, he can't live without her. She is the same way, and says she can't imagine anyone else with him or her. She says she is not attracted to anyone else. They constantly do things together and for each other. He builds her up, but then can turn around and break her down when she angers him. They separated once before, and he didn't care about anyone else. They both are of the jealous nature, but she has more people attracted to her---a lot. Although, she doesn't seem to want anyone else. They are both very good looking and intellegent. He is a manager, and she works for a doctor. Luckily, there are no children involved. One thing does bother me about him. During the course of this time, which she is thinking about coming home, he will want a divorce and then turn around and cuddle her and ask who is going to take care of him. For peats sake---she is almost a baby! I feel that he feels frustrated that he cannot meet all of her needs. She requires a lot of personal attention on herself. Does the physical side ever get better or does it only get worse? Because if it can't improve, I would want her to get out before she got hurt! I was just in shock of the whole thing. They are so on again, off again all the time, but seem to be very much attracted to each other.

Michigan Court of Appeals Revives Lawsuit Against Therapist
FMSF News Alert - December 30, 2014
Roberts v Salmi, Docket No 316068 , Dec. 18, 2014, Houghton Circuit Court; LC NO. 2012-015075-NH, 2014 WL 7202808
The Michigan Court of Appeals has opened the door for parents to bring a malpractice lawsuit against their daughter's therapist claiming that the therapist used hypnosis to implant false memories of sexual abuse.
In 2009 when Lale and Joan Roberts discovered that a friend of the family had engaged in inappropriate sexual behavior with their then 17-year-old daughter "K", they hired Kathryn Salmi to provide counseling to her. Three weeks later, Salmi accused Lale in front of Joan and K of inappropriate sexual abuse, which she did not report to the authorities. One month later, K claimed to have remembered that she had been physically and sexually abused by her father from the time she was five.
Salmi, who on her website is listed as Rev. Kathryn Salmi, Christian Counseling, reported to the Department of Human Services that K's younger sister was being abused by Lale. [1] The state investigated Lale and Joan Roberts, but found no evidence that the sister was being abused.
In 2012, the Roberts sued Salmi for malpractice stating that Salmi owed them a duty to "not improperly implant, or reinforce false memories of physical and sexual abuse in K's mind by use of hypnosis, age regression and other psychotherapy techniques."
Salmi moved for summary disposition arguing that because K's records were protected by privilege, the Roberts would not be able to show negligent treatment. In January 2013, the trial court entered an order dismissing the claim because Salmi had no duty of care to avoid harming third parties with her treatment of K.
Lale and Joan Roberts appealed to the Court of Appeals.
On December 18, 2014, in a two to one decision Judges Kelly and Murphy wrote
"we conclude that Michigan's common law recognizes a duty of care to third parties who might foreseeably be harmed by the mental health professional's use of techniques that cause his or her patient to have false memories of sexual abuse. Because the trial court erred when it dismissed Lale and Joan Roberts' claim on the grounds that Michigan does not recognize such a duty, we reverse and remand for further proceedings."
The Kelly-Murphy decision is well worth reading in it its entirety. The statements about parent-child relationships are strong indeed. The language and arguments do appear to widen the breach for parents to bring lawsuits in this limited situation. The challenges, however, are still great. Salmi may appeal to the State Supreme Court. And even if the case passes that hurdle, it will still be necessary to prove the case. This is a case to be followed.
Excerpts from decision.
"Because a patient's parents are within the class of persons most likely to be implicated by the creation of a false memory, when a mental health professional elects to treat a patient using techniques that might give rise to false memories in the patient, the mental health professional must consider not only the patient's welfare, but also the possibility that his or her decision to treat the patient in that way might result in a false memory that directly harms the patient's parents."
"The parent-child relationship is so fundamental to human relations that a parent cannot be equated with a third party in the ordinary sense. And when a therapist's inept use of therapeutic techniques causes his or her patient to have false memories and make false allegations of sexual abuse, the harm is foreseeable and strikes 'at the core of a parent's basic emotional security.'"
"Michigan's common law recognizes a duty of care to third parties who might foreseeably be harmed by the mental health professional's use of techniques that cause his or her patient to have false memories of sexual abuse."

The United States Coast Guard is the smallest branch of the Armed Forces. The Coast Guard had its formal beginnings in 1915, with the express purpose of providing life-saving watchfulness on the coast of the United States. Over the years, the mission of the Coast Guard has expanded to provide law-enforcement to the coastline, search and rescue, pollution response teams, and coastal maintenance. The United States Coast Guard has had an interesting history. The Coast Guard played a vital role in cooperation with the United States Navy during World War II, including involvement in crucial movements, such as D Day and invasion of Pacific Islands. In 2003, the Coast Guard was transferred to the jurisdiction of Homeland Security. In 2006, this decision was amended by congressional direction. The new statute changed wartime jurisdiction of the United States Coast Guard from Homeland Security to the United States Navy. In times of war, or by direct order of Congress or the President, the United States Coast Guard operates under direction of the United State Navy, and serves as a support unit to that branch of the Armed Forces.
The United States Coast Guard
The United States Coast Guard operates under a three-pronged core value statement. Every member of the Coast Guard adheres to the principles of honor, respect, and devotion to duty. The Coast Guard upholds a proud tradition of physical readiness, commitment to service, and loyalty to country.

Ensure that document matches include...
...all of these word(s):
...and optionally include these word(s):
...but do not have these word(s):
Enter your phrase:
Enter the first few characters of a word:
There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.
Boolean Operators
You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.
example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example:
default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.
example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.
example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.
Wildcard/Prefix queries
You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.


text: In September we began working on designs and layouts for new products to show at Scotland's Trade Fair Spring 2009 in the S.E.C.C. Glasgow. That was the easy part, the hard part was how we were going to display all our combined efforts. Well as you can see below, today (Saturday 24/01/09) the stand was built and dressed for the opening tomorrow. A big sigh of relief also to see that we were able to get the stand out of the van and re-build with relative ease. I will breath easy tomorrow when the doors open in hall 4, and people get to walk around the fair. I am pretty sure the stand will look different again, with more people in the hall and not just us exhibitors. But, I must say I am delighted with what we have achieved over the months. Everyone at The Bay Attic and Doricmor have worked long hours folding, creasing, packaging, cutting, designing, discussing and eating the odd pizza or chippy along the way, to get us where we are today. We have new artists on board like Anf Payne, Keli Clark and Robert Kelsey to name but a few, and amazing photography or " Scottish Naturesques", from Simon Nicholas White that we have made into greeting cards and calendars. Even though the products are ready, I still have now to work on the website and upload all our new lines to it as well. So, here is a sneak peek at the stand. Be one of the first to see it !

Net Metering
Connecticuts Electric Distribution Companies (EDCs) currently offer Net Metering (NM) for electricity generated by a customer from a Class I renewable energy source (i.e., solar, wind, etc.), through a billing credit, that has a nameplate capacity rating of two megawatts or less. For additional information on NM, please contact the EDC that services your area, United Illuminating (UI) or Eversource.
Virtual Net Metering
Virtual Net Metering (VNM) offers financial incentives to State, Municipal and Agricultural customers to encourage the installation of Class I and Class III (i.e., electricity output from combined heat and power systems) distributed generation. VNM allows customers who operate behind-the-meter generation (Customer Host) to assign surplus production from their generator to other metered accounts (Beneficial Accounts) that are not physically connected to the Customer Hosts generator. For additional information on VNM, please visit EnergizeCT.
Siting renewable energy generation with NM or VNM on a brownfield may make your project more economical, where production from the generator is first used to reduce the electric consumption, and surplus production can then be assigned to reduce the electric bill. Eligibility requirements and compensation will vary with each program.

A Research Tool for the Peace & Statebuilding Scholar-Practitioner
The Institute for National Security and Counterterrorism's Postconflict Research Database & Analysis Project stores cross-indexed bibliographic information on hundreds of journal articles, books, book chapters, and case reports that address the broad, interdisciplinary fields of postconflict reconstruction, stabilization, and peacebuilding.
The database is a research tool for scholars, practitioners, and educators to help quickly retrieve bibliographic information and abstracts on key topics of interest. Users are encouraged to explore this site using the search functions provided, which are broken down by a range of categories (i.e., country, topic, date, etc.) and/or by author.
NOTE: This site does not republish scholarly content. Rather, it provides bibliographic information (i.e., author, title, date), abstracts or summaries, and in many cases, external links to the original publisher.
Data Content & Next Steps
Currently holding more than 500 sources with publication dates up to 2012, with more sources being added. The WordPress-based database stores its data as blog posts, categorized along a variety of corresponding topics of interest ranging from countries to a full menu of political, social, economic research areas such as capacity building, civil society, corruption, gender, SSR, DDR, reconciliation, and more.
The Postconflict Research Database & Analysis Project addresses the research and knowledge management challenges of postconflict stabilization, reconstruction, and peacebuilding. The database provides a publicly accessible and sustainable repository for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to quickly access and negotiate an increasingly complex and unwieldy mass of multidisciplinary, multi-sector postconflict literature. The project also tracks literature trends to identify knowledge gaps and facilitate future research.
Ultimately, this project facilitates researchers' and practitioners' ability to conduct quality research so that a generalizable knowledge base is built and so that contextual conditions and approaches can combine to create constructive postconflict reconstruction efforts.

Back in May 2016, Google used its Google I/O developer extravaganza to announce that Android apps were going to appear on the search giant's low-cost Chromebook laptops.
Awesome, right? Well, database giant Oracle, which had that very same day rested its (ultimately unsuccessful) case in its $8.8 billion lawsuit against Google, definitely didn't think so, as Motherboard's Sarah Jeong reports, and now they're pushing for a do-over with a third trial.
The key to Oracle's claim was that Google had violated copyright when it used key pieces of its Java technology to build Android, the most popular operating system in the world.
But part of Google's winning defense was that Java is for computers, and Android is for smartphones and tablets, so there wasn't enough overlap to prove that Google was actually hurting Oracle's bottom line. The first trial had a hung jury on the issue of fair use; the second found in Google's favor.
Related : Google Play Store available on ChromeOS Beta on Chromebooks under Developer Preview
So when Google announced at Google I/O that it had been working in "secret" for "months" to put Android apps on Chromebooks, as Oracle's lawyers put it — meaning that Android was coming to computers after all — Oracle didn't like it much.
Oracle lawyers argued in federal court today that their copyright trial loss against Google should be thrown out because they were denied key evidence in discovery.
Oracle attorney Annette Hurst said that the launch of Google Play on Chrome OS, which happened in the middle of the trial, showed that Google was trying to break into the market for Java SE on desktops. In her view, that move dramatically changes the amount of market harm that Oracle experienced, and the evidence should have been shared with the jury.
Related : Why android apps on chrome OS are a really really big deal
"This is a game-changer," Hurst told US District Judge William Alsup, who oversaw the trial. "The whole foundation for their case is gone. [Android] isn't 'transformative'; it's on desktops and laptops."
Google argued that its use of Java APIs was "fair use" for several reasons, including the fact that Android, which was built for smartphones, didn't compete with Java SE, which is used on desktops and laptops. During the post-trial hearing today, Hurst argued that it's clear that Google intends to use Android smartphones as a "leading wedge" and has plans to "suck in the entire Java SE market."
Oracle originally sued Google in 2010, saying the company violated copyrights related to application programming interfaces (APIs) in the Java programming language. After a first jury trial in 2012, Alsup found that APIs aren't subject to copyright at all, but that ruling was overturned on appeal. The dispute went to a second jury trial in May of this year, after which the jury found that Google's use of Java APIs didn't violate copyright law because it was "fair use." Oracle has said it will appeal that verdict.

A new woman in your life may bring some new excitement and thrill. This is the best part of dating and relationships. If you are up for it, you can easily get a girl's attention. In addition to this, dating can have a major impact on your overall life. You may feel younger, fresher and more energetic. In this post, we have discussed some effective tips to get a girl's attention.
Be Chivalrous
Most women in this world can be wooed with chivalry. It's important to pull out chairs for her, open doors, walk on the outside on the road, and perform other such actions. This always leaves a good impression on a woman. It makes you seem more classier and sophisticated. You will definitely grab her attention, and she will appreciate all these gestures.
Be Ready For Changes
When you want a girl's attention, you should be ready to make some changes. A girl's perspective towards life keeps changing with her experiences. You should have an open mind, and accept these changes. You should never try to impose your opinions on to her.
Don't Always Be There
Sometimes, it is important to maintain your distance when you want a girl's attention. If you spend a lot of time with the girl, she may get bored and start looking for other options. If you want her attention, you should give her some space. This will make sure she knows you are not clingy in a relationship.
Let Her Pursue You
At times, you should let her pursue you. There's no need to keep bothering her with requests, and doing favors for her. There should be times when she willingly pursues you, and shows her desire. Girl pay attention to men who don't compromise on their manhood, authority and assertiveness. You should be confident of yourself.
Never Interfere With Her Life
If you want her attention, make sure she has the liberty to do whatever she wants. You should never interfere with her decisions or life. It's important to let her make personal choices with any unnecessary pressure. You should never act like a stalker, and maintain your distance.
With some simple tips, it can be quite easy to get a girl's attention. You just need to keep these simple things in mind. You should let a girl feel free, and do exactly what she wants. If you give her some space and treat her with some respect, she will definitely pay attention.

Smart tracking.
Sleek enough to pass acceptably through your presentation to the board, the Garmin Vivoactive HR GPS stealthily utilizes wrist-based heart rate reading to take your daily activity tracking and training data analysis to the next level. Whether you're keeping tabs on your daily steps, training for a multisport event, or running after your adventure cat who has just squirmed out of its harness, this watch is there to capture it all.
The big news about the Vivoactive HR GPS is its ability to continuously monitor heart rate through its proprietary Elevate optical sensor at the wrist, eliminating the need for a bulky, uncomfortable chest strap. The continuous data stream lets the watch not only provide feedback on current heart rate, but also accurately assess your resting heart rate in addition to all its other activity tracking features. This can help indicate fitness and health changes over time and is a huge perk for athletes looking to catch early signs of overtraining. While Garmin claims Elevate is appropriate for tracking intense activities and training zones, it may be a good idea to stick to your traditional chest strap for interval sessions until Elevate's accuracy is proven, given the issues with many of the other optical sensors currently on the market.
The Vivoactive is GPS-enabled to track routes, distance, speed, and other metrics depending on your choice of activity, which can be uploaded to Garmin Connect for in-depth analysis. It connects to Garmin's app store, Connect IQ, which opens the unit up for virtually limitless customizability through third-party apps and features. It also comes with some unexpected features, like activity goals—assigned based on inveterate activity levels—and sedentary alarms—which warn you when life at the desk is threatening your daily activity goals.
The Vivoactive HR GPS also brings the usual functionality that we've grown to expect from smart wearables, including text and call notifications, calendar synching, playlist control, steps taken, calories burned, sleep patterns, and even social media alerts, so you know the moment someone poaches one of your Strava segments.
For all these features, the Vivoactive's strongest selling point may be its body. The screen is a huge, always-on affair that's readable even under the bright Kona sun. Despite the impressive display, Garmin still manages to keep the claimed weight to just under 48g, and the profile is slim enough to transition seamlessly from saddle to pool to track or even to the golf course in the event you want to ruin an otherwise restful recovery day with a frustrating 18 hole walk.

Great functionality, Screen cracks
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
First of all this watch has great functionality which I'm not going to write about as I think the other reviews here have that covered. For functionality I would give this watch 5 stars.
However the screen on this watch has cracked twice on me without cause. Once the screen is cracked it is almost impossible to swipe through screens...making the watch more or less worthless. I travel a lot and my best guess is the screen is susceptible to barometric pressure changes as both cracks happened after traveling and a change in elevation. The first time the screen cracked on me was a week or two after purchase and Garmin was nice enough to warranty the watch and I got it back quickly. However it just cracked again in a similarly inexplicable way and I'm 1.5 years after purchase and Garmin will not warranty. A $250 watch should last longer. I'm giving this product 2 stars as I do not recommend it given my experience. If you're on the market for a sports watch I recommend steering clear of touch screens and researching other manufacturers warranties to see if they'll stand behind their product better than Garmin.
Great Function
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
Gave this as a gift to my mother and it has changed her life. She loves the alerts that let her know to get to her phone for a phone call or text. She also loves how easy the buttons are to navigate and toggle between the different functions. Overall she only uses about 20% of the watch's function, however she will eventually understand how to use all of the functions.
Good Watch
I bought this for my hubby and he loves it that he only has to charge it about every two weeks. It isn't very bright on the screen but it last awhile on the charging. The features on the watch is good.
Good for tracking workouts
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Overall, I like it - great for tracking runs/hikes/bike rides. There are many apps available for it, but I ran into some problems trying to add some of them - the app store kept telling me I needed to update my watch's software, but the watch (and Garmin Connect) kept telling me it was all up to date. And I find it too large to wear 24/7 - certainly not while sleeping. So I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to replace your fitbit, but it's perfect for recording and keeping track of workouts - and I like that it automatically detects and pairs with the ANT+ chest strap that I already owned, which I feel is probably more accurate than the wrist sensor.
Small case, good and durable but overall just an ok. does not get close to the Fenix's.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I walk my dog first thing in the morning then go hike the mountains with my wife and really like all the features it has to offer.The reason I didn't give it five stars is the weather widget stop working less than 24 hours after I got the watch.I've tried everything I could figure out to do and have even talked to harming support twice and they are saying it's a IOS issue and there working on it well that's been about a month ago and still nothing,after reading some of the other reviews I'm not seeing anyone else having that issue maybe I just got a funky one.I guess I'll call Backcountry tomorrow they always seem to be very helpful.
Good....While It Lasted
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I am not going to lie...this is a hard one for me to review because I ended up returning the watch. I gave it four stars because I think it was the specific to my unit and the fact that Backcountry were so great on working with me to get my money back!
--The Good--
*Comfortable to wear all day. I was really surprised how it would just forget I was wearing it. I was afraid that the heart rate monitor would dig into my wrist, but I never knew it was there.
*Heart Rate monitor was accurate enough. I noticed it was usually 2-3bpm off, but that was more than good enough for me.
*Swiss Army Knife of fitness trackers/GPS watches. It did everything from count your steps everyday and give you goals to reach, to track your sleep, to track your runs (or the other trillion sports it does). I mean it was great. GPS would pick up and it would be very accurate.
*Great Battery Life. I could go about a week on a charge. That was running four times a week about an hour each time.
*Touch Screen but it still had tactile buttons to use.
*Great APP for your phone. Seriously loved this app. I now use Movescount with my Suunot watch and it is not nearly as nice.
--The Bad--
Mine kept wanting to auto update and every time would lose all my info. Because of this I sent it back. I have friends who I later found out owned this watch and they have reported no such issues for them. Once I returned it I realized I didn't need all the fitness tracking features of this watch and got an Suunto Ambit 3 Run....for running.
I didn't put it through the wringer, but I used more than a few times.
Good tech
I don't normally geek out on technology. I have basic apps for my smartphone and I am usually late to upgrade my technology. But I just couldn't wait for this watch to be delivered.
I was researching activity trackers this spring. A friend of mine let me use his Vivosmart HR for a ski tour in the spring and thought it was interesting. So I looked around at what was on the market. Garmin had info on this watch on their website and I decided it had everything I wanted in one unit.
Here's the thing, I really like the watch. I didn't think I would because I haven't worn a watch for years because my phone became my watch. I like how easy it is to use the watch and how comfortable it is to wear.
If you're looking for a do-it-all watch with GPS at a great price, this is it!
Nice watch despite several shortcomings
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Having been a long time Garmin user (Edge 500 on my bike), I waited a long time for this watch and although there are some issues, I'm glad I bought it. Prior to the Vivoactive HR I've never been interested in wearables including Fitbits or the Apple Watch. But since I've started taking up running, I wanted a dedicated running watch so I don't have to rely on the Strava app on my iPhone. Despite the fact that I have several analog watches that I wear on a daily basis. since I got the Vivoactive HR, I haven't worn them at all!
Screen resolution is low.
Heart rate monitor doesn't track very well when asleep. (not sure if this is intentional?)
Backlighting is not very bright.
Doesn't track steps very well if you're not swinging your arms (like when you're walking with a stroller.)
Doesn't track floors climbed very well when you're indoors or if you go up too fast.
Noticeable light bleed from the bottom left corner of the screen. Kind of a bummer, especially since I expected better quality from Garmin. (BTW. This is my second Vivoactive HR. The first one I bought from a big box electronic store. Based on the serial number, that one was manufactured before my current one. And the light bleed on that unit was horrendous, it was actually the primary reason why I returned it). This one is much better.
Battery lasts forever! Worn 24hrs/day, one full charge lasts ~6 days with 3-4 5k runs sprinkled in for good measure.
It charges quickly. I charge it in the car sometimes.
Customizable faces. There are good user developed ones available (and bad ones too!)
Phone notifications are quick and there is no delay.
Heart rate monitor is within 2-3bpm compared to my chest strap.
Find my phone feature is useful.
Watch face is "always on", unlike the Apple Watch or some Fitbit.
Great legibility outside in the daylight.
The Garmin app is robust and automatically syncs to Strava!
Customizable data fields (you can download user generated options online) for your activity (run,bike,swim,etc.) apps.
And as always, the Backcountry customer service (my rep was Miranda!) is top notch.
Hi, i do have the same light bleed problem in my recently bought vivoactive HR. Do i have to be worried about the light bleed for long run? does it affect the performance ?
Thanks & cheers
Good initial impression
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have only had this watch for a few days so this isn't going to be very in depth.
I did a lot of research before I bought a GPS/smart/fitness tracking watch. I was first pretty interested in the Fitbit Blaze but unfortunately it does not have GPS capabilities without being connected to a phone so it was a no go.
This watch can pretty much do it all. The built in heart rate monitor is pretty cool. It is fun to keep track of your heart rate throughout the day and helpful when working out.
Right out of the box it is set up to track everything from biking to running to golf to stand up paddle boarding. It can literally do it all. It also is able to track flights of stairs climbed and skiing/snowboarding which other watches are not able to do.
It is also totally customizable with different watch faces, widgets, and applications. A fun feature for you to get the watch exactly how you like it.
The only thing I am not super excited about is the shape. I would prefer to have a more standard looking watch like the FR235 but I see why Garmin made it the way they did. This is made to compete directly with the Fitbit Surge so they made it a similar form.
So far the battery seems to be pretty good even though the heart rate monitor is going 24/7. The battery won't last as long as watches that don't have that but it is still a good life on it.
So far so good.

Scoop, Flume, PIG, Zookeeper. Do these mean anything to you? If they do then the odds are you are looking at Hadoop. The thing is that while that was cool a few years ago it really is time to face it that HDFS is a commodity, Map Reduce is interesting but not feasible for most users and the real question is how we turn all that raw data in HDFS into something we can actually use.
That means three things
That means three things
- Performant and ANSI compliant SQL matters - if you aren't able to run traditional reporting package then you are making people change for no reason. If you don't have an alternative then you aren't offering an answer
- Predictive analytics, statistical, machine learning and whatever else they want - this is the stuff that will actually be new to most people
- Reacting in real-time - and I mean FAST, not BI fast but ACTUALLY fast
The last one is about how you ingest data and then perform real time analytics which are able to incorporate forecasting information from Hadoop into real-time feedback that can be integrated into source systems.
So Hadoop and HDFS are actually the least important in your future, its critical but not important. I've seen people spend ages looking at the innards rather than just getting on and actually solving problems. Do you care what your mobile phone network looks like internally? Do you care what the wiring back to the power station looks like? HDFS is that for Data, its the critical substrate, something that needs to be there. But where you should concentrate your efforts is on how it supports the business use cases above.
How does it support ANSI compliant SQL, how does it support your standard reporting packages. How will you add new types of analytics, does it support the advanced analytics tools your business already successfully uses? How does it enable real-time analytics and integration?
Then of course its about how it works within your enterprise, so how does it work with data management tools, how does its monitoring fit in with your existing tools. Basically is it a grown-up or a child in the information sand-pit.
Now this means its not really about the Hadoop or HDFS piece itself, its about the ecosystem of technologies into which it needs to integrate. Otherwise its going to just be another silo of technologies that don't work well with everything else and ultimately doesn't deliver the value you need.

HMRC challenged over low tax bills for money moving giants
The head of Revenue and Customs came under pressure yesterday to explain why foreign-owned industry giants are allowed to pay less tax than small family businesses in Britain.
Lin Homer, chief executive of HMRC, was questioned over a series of reports revealing that multinationals have slashed their tax bills by transferring profits to companies in more favourable regimes.
John Mann, member of the Commons Treasury sub-committee, listed Starbucks, Google, Amazon and Facebook, and queried what the Revenue described as its "very successful strategy" of recovering tax from companies that move money overseas.
He asked Ms Homer: "Would you regard it as morally acceptable if a large multinational employing thousands of people with huge sales here was paying less in corporation tax than a business in…

From the Sydney Morning Herald:
ALMOST everyone knows the story of King Edward VIII's abdication to marry the American divorcee Wallis Simpson but few have read the mountain of books about the saga. That Woman, the first biography by a woman of Wallis Simpson, Duchess of Windsor, is for them.
Anne Sebba's intention "to humanise not demonise" the woman works, no doubt to the chagrin of those who still detest her.
It works because of the material discovered in the King's Proctor's files at the National Archives in London but most of all because, as a woman, Sebba could get into Wallis's mind the way male authors could not. So hats off to Sebba for turning a complex slice of history into a gripping yarn.

What is gum disease?
Your gums are just as important to your overall oral health as your teeth, which is why our dentist and dental team at Irish Road Dental offer comprehensive periodontal treatment for multiple gum conditions, including gum disease. Gum disease is a painful infection of your gums that can eventually lead to gum loss, bone loss, and tooth loss. You may have gum disease if:
- Your gums bleed, especially when you brush or floss
- Your gums are unusually red, tender, or swollen
- Your gum line is receding, causing teeth to look abnormally long
- Your teeth are loose or have fallen out
The nature of your treatment will depend on the severity and nature of each individual case. Dr. David Ewing will work closely with you to determine the most effective way to move forward.
What is scaling and root planing?
The most common treatments for gum disease in Davison, Michigan, are scaling and root planing, which are deep cleaning methods. Scaling gently removes diseased gum tissue from above and below your gum line, while root planing smoothes rough surfaces where bacteria can get trapped. If necessary, medication may also be suggested. If your gums are hurting, please do not hesitate to contact us today. We would love to help you bring back your healthy smile.

Lila Rose's We Animals on CD
I'm starting to feel that same malaise about modern music as other people my age--it seems like it's been forever since I've heard something that was both original and different and still for, you know, the kids. Just a few years ago I was such a staunch defender of new music and constantly offered up such 21st century classics such as Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, The Archandroid and so many others as irrefutable proof. In 2015, everything's starting to sound the same, which of course means it's all merely starting to sound like the good stuff that was released forty years ago.
That's why I sat up and took immediate notice of Lila Rose's new CD, We Animals. I don't want to say it defies description, because her percussion-centered anthems often remind me of such artists as Florence + the Machine, Muse and perhaps even a little Adam and the Ants and Siouxsie Sue thrown in for good measure. But this Canadian-born singer has done something extremely interesting here. She's made a real '70s-style concept album about one of today's most troubling issues--protecting all of the species of animals from the damage we're administering to the planet. This might not play in Tallahassee.
Rose's approach to this type of rhythmic Goth pop is unique. She suffers from hyperacusis, a disorder that makes many so-called natural sounds unbearable to hear. That's why every aspect of these songs sound so strange and different--they've been massaged and guided through an uncommon filter. Even when hear somewhat familiar themes in more accessible songs such as "Confessions" or the opening "Stars," there's always an element that's slightly askew whether it's the somewhat alien drone of the backing vocals or a full string and horn section used to heighten the drama.
Another pleasant surprise is found in the excellent sound quality--it's one of those rare pop recordings that can be cranked up loudly without sounding unduly compressed or distorted. Rose and producer Daniel Garcia chose to record much of this album "in a small studio in the woods outside Santa Cruz." It was a clear effort to provide a different sound than Rose's 2012 debut Heart Machine, something more primitive and natural to better reflect the environmental issues she's presenting. There's a stunning beauty to the percussive strikes that punctuate every song, something that's notable for an artist who has, up until know, specialized in a more electronic sound.
We're already four months into 2015, and this is the first pop/rock/whatever album that actually made think about my next year-end list and what would ultimately be on it. We Animals has the early lead.

Under the Articles of War enacted by the British Navy in the 18th century, many crimes qualified as capital offenses, including mutiny, treason, robbery, sodomy and murder. Executions were often carried out by hanging, with the convict strung up from the ship's yardarm.
By accounts from that era, these hangings were more a gradual strangulation than a snap of the neck. They were also complicated, requiring several men to hoist and secure the convict at a considerable height on a moving ship.
The climactic hanging in Los Angeles Opera's revival of "Billy Budd" — opening on Feb. 22 — is also complicated, though for different reasons. To simulate the look of a naval execution, the company's production team has laboriously rehearsed the sequence in which baritone Liam Bonner as Billy is hoisted and left suspended 12 feet above the set.
The scene is treacherous enough to necessitate the presence of the production's original director, Francesca Zambello, who first mounted this staging in 1994.
Bonner stands on a wooden plank and is hoisted by six male performers who must coordinate their movements or risk having the star tumble onto the steeply raked set. They must then drop the plank from under his feet in unison at the moment of execution.
In a recent rehearsal, Zambello had the performers practice their moves several times — first without Bonner and then with the singer, who didn't wear any safety gear despite the real possibility that he could fall off and injure himself. Lifting the singer was no simple task — he stands 6 feet, 4 inches tall and weighs 190 pounds.
"How do you feel, Liam?" asked Zambello when the singer was fully hoisted in the air.
"I'll feel good when I'm hooked up to the cable," he replied, referring to the safety device that will be used during performances.
Height is a crucial aspect of this "Billy Budd." The protagonist is tall, handsome and charismatic. The vertically oriented set represents the swaying mast of the HMS Indomitable. And the production itself is the pinnacle of L.A. Opera's yearlong centenary tribute to composer Benjamin Britten, born in 1913.
"It's an ideal choice of subject for an opera — it's a universe contained in a universe [on this ship]," said L.A. Opera music director
In the last 12 months, Conlon has led local performances of several Britten works, his "War Requiem" and "The Rape of Lucretia." In recent seasons, L.A. Opera has staged the composer's "The Turn of the Screw" and "Albert Herring."
"James and I wanted to follow those two operas with one of his biggest works," said Placido Domingo, the company's general director.
"Billy Budd" is epic — a tale of innocence destroyed on the high seas. Adapted from the novel by Herman Melville, the story follows a young sailor who is beloved by his crew members but whose youthful charisma earns him the enmity of his superior, the master-at-arms Claggart (bass-baritone Greer Grimsley).
The opera was also a personal one for Britten for its homosexual subtext. (The composer was gay and lived at a time when homosexual acts were criminal in Britain.) The sublimated attraction that Claggart feels for Billy plays out in an all-male setting, though Claggart never articulates any sexual longing.
The degree to which they should show the attraction was a matter of some dispute among the opera's creators, according to a recent article that Conlon wrote for the Hudson Review.
E.M. Forster, the author of "Howards End" and "A Passage to India," among other works, wrote much of the libretto for the opera. Forster, who was also gay, wanted Claggart's homoerotic feelings for Billy to be more directly expressed and said so to the composer.
But Britten resisted making the changes, apparently preferring audiences to read between the notes.
Zambello said during a break in rehearsal that she hasn't made the production more overtly gay in the 20 years since she first staged it. "I don't think you do it more 'out,'" she said.
Nonetheless, the production features moments where the homoeroticism surges to the fore. During a run through of the trial sequence, in which Billy is convicted for striking and killing Claggart, she directed the singers to be more overtly physical.
"Yeah, grab him. Inappropriate behavior," she told one singer during a particularly impassioned exchange. "There's a little bit of buggery going on there, right?"
Zambello's stay in L.A. was brief — she rehearsed scenes for a week and then handed off the duties to assistants and left for Switzerland, where she is directing the new Frank Wildhorn musical "Excalibur."
She juggles her directorial jobs with administrative posts as the head of the Glimmerglass Festival in upstate New York and the Washington National Opera.
"Billy Budd" was first performed in London in 1951 in a much longer version than the two-act opera that is customarily staged today. Zambello's production won an Olivier Award when it premiered in London in 1995. Michael Grandage's production from 2010 recently played at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, where it received rapturous reviews.
The hanging sequence represents a technical challenge for any production, though many have opted to leave that moment offstage.
When Bonner is elevated for his character's execution, he will be wearing a custom-fitted harness made of nylon webbing and designed to fit snugly under the singer's costume, according to Rupert Hemmings, the company's director of production.
A cable will be attached to the harness that will secure him in midair after the plank he is standing on drops.
For audiences, the site of Billy's body will be brief before the lights go to black and the story enters the epilogue delivered by the ship's Captain Vere (tenor Richard Croft).
In the original novella, left unfinished after Melville's death in 1891, the author provided a description of his hero's lifeless body.
"No motion was apparent," Melville wrote. "None save that created by the ship's motion, in moderate weather so majestic in a great ship ponderously cannoned."

Wednesday 7 AM: Changing of the Guard in the Peterborough Parks
8 comments:
This all looks very nice. How many parks are there in Peterborough? I had a look at the Google satellite view of downtown. It's hard to tell what is park & what is just general greenery.ReplyDelete
I am very flattered that you went to the trouble to Google map Peterborough! There are 3 parks in Peterborough. Depot Park is at the confluence of the Nubanusit and Contoocook Rivers. Putnam Park, the Boccelli Garden and Nubanusit Terrace are on either side of the bridge over the Nubanusit River on Grove Street. Teixeira Park is in West Peterborough on Union Street. It is also on the Nubanusit River. I hope I haven't overestimated your interest in the parks in Peterborough, NH! Thanks for your interest.
How fortunate you live in a town that will fund public gardens (not to mention the fun of getting to design them). Even more fortunate that the town will fund the maintenance of the gardens. Looks great!ReplyDelete
It is a little more complicated then that. Yes, the town is very supportive of the public gardens, but this is a true collaboration of the public and private sectors. The plants in the Bocelli garden, for instance were funded by a wonderful local grant called the Goyette Fund. The town backhoed the garden (16ft x 60ft) and placed the granite edging. Then the town filled the garden with loam and manure. The volunteers have designed and maintained the gardens ever since.
The more grants we get, the more the town is willing to support us. My model has been Lynden Miller's model of public and private collaboration for parks and public spaces in Manhattan. Thanks for your interest!

Just beautiful! I forget how long I've lived in the South, seeing that you are just planting things for the NH summer. The perovskia in the clipped rectangular hedges are quite perfect!ReplyDelete
I am always shocked to see what is blooming in your garden-aways weeks ahead of us here in new England. I'll post a picture of the Russian sage blooming next month.

After seeing a chef on TV preparing foods for the super bowl weekend, I was inspired to do a little research into what American restaurants there are around Melbourne. One that stood out was Father's Office and so after a couple of quick text messages to my friends we'd organised a lunch date. I didn't realise, but I'd actually walked past there countless times when I was in the city. It's actually part of the QV building, right near the State Library.
I loved the interior of Father's Office, it had a mixture of different features from the big chandelier in the entry way to the dark blue pressed metal roof with rustic lights hanging from it. As you walked up the stairs one of the walls was covered in wallpaper that looked like bookshelves. There were big couches through the middle of the room and tables on the outer part of the room that looked out over the street and the State Library.
We sat on one of these big couches which were super comfy. It made it easy to sit for hours and we ended up having a really long lazy lunch.
The menu was set out like a newspaper, titled The Speakeasy Daily. There were definitely plenty of options for food and drink, making it hard to choose. Most items on the menu were very American with things like Louisiana Fried Wings, Philly Steak Sandwich and Key Lime Pie. I liked that while they had the rich American comfort food, there were also some lighter, healthier options.
We started off with the obligatory cider, pear this time which was really light and refreshing. This and an apple cider were both on tap, but I can't remember the name unfortunately.
One of my friends ordered pork scratchings to go along with her drink. Boy were there a lot of them! We all trialled them and they were really crunchy and salty - delicious - but I managed to stop after having a couple.
This is the same friend's meal that she ordered - the buffalo wings with fries and blue cheese sauce. A very messy, but really well done dish. You had the choice of ordering 6 or 12 wings, so it could make a good dish for sharing.
Another friend ordered this very pretty looking dish - Quinoa, Halloumi and roasted vegetable salad which was very light, but nicely flavoured.
This is the burger that I ordered - the Pork Belly burger which was amazing. The pork was beautifully soft, with some of the crackling left on and it went really well with the soft pear and apple compote and crisp lettuce.
We couldn't resist the Home Style Mac n Cheese either, which we decided to share amongst us. That was really rich and creamy, so it was difficult to finish. Unfortunately we ordered so much food for our mains that we just couldn't fit in dessert (even in our dessert stomachs) so we'll have to go back one day to try those - especially the Key Lime Pie!

Said the Canadian Finance Minister Mr. Jim Flaherty to the question: "How much of a kick are we going to take on the revenue side because of lower nominal GDP?"
"Significant, it's significant." I watched the interview over my usual morning bowl of gruel and also heard Jim say that "We will stay on track to balance the budget in 2015-16."
Oh Oh.
If the Government is heading towards negative spending and the trade balance is already in negative balance, then you dear private sector better get out there and start spending because the last time I looked, Canadian Producers (IPPI) can't seem to get it up. See my Canadian Deflation Update

Next stop - Mirfield!
From Sunday 11 December, Grand Central Railway will be running direct rail connections between Mirfield and London. With tickets from as little as £19 when you book in advance, there's even more reason to try Grand Central.
Three trains per day will leave Mirfield for London Kings Cross, with a choice of two return services. For those travelling at weekends, on Saturdays there are two southbound services, with three services travelling in the opposite direction. On Sundays there will be a choice of three services in both directions.
The stops at Mirfield have come about as a result of an application by Grand Central Railway to the Office of Rail Regulation, followed by extensive consultation with Network Rail and other industry stakeholders.
Tom Clift, Managing Director of Grand Central Railway, said:
"We are delighted to have been given permission to serve Mirfield. The town and its surroundings offer a considerable catchment for those who travel to London regularly, whether for business or pleasure. We also recognise the tourism potential of Kirklees in attracting passengers in the opposite direction. Now that the green light has been given, we shall continue discussions with Metro and Northern Rail to seek improvements to the station."
Cllr Pat Sutcliffe, Chair of Mirfield Town Council, said "This is great news for Mirfield and for Kirklees. It gives such a boost to our local community. For years Mirfield has been recognised as a relatively affluent community. It is a busy town and has a lot of commuters. Until now passengers heading for London have had to travel to either Wakefield or Leeds. Now we have a direct link with the capital I am thrilled to bits."
Due to the last minute announcement from the ORR, the fare for Mirfield will not be in railway retail systems for about another week. The equivalent Brighouse fare will be used for the purposes of ticket sales.
Check the train times to and from Mirfield and book your tickets.

Gelila Bekele is a model, humanitarian, and social activist. Most people recognize this Ethiopian beauty from seeing her in popular advertisements for Pantene and Colgate, but many people have no idea that there is much more behind this stunning woman that makes her even more intriguing. Gelila was born in an impoverished country that is ruled by a brutal dictatorship where millions of people don't have access to the most basic human needs like food and water.
With the success and celebrity afforded to her through her work as a recognizable model, Gelila devotes much of her time to aiding people around the world through her charity involvement with groups that help those living in third world nations attain fundamental natural resources like water. One organization that she is passionate about is simply called: Charity: Water.
Charity: Water is a non-profit organization founded by Scott Harris in New York City in 2006 that brings clean and safe drinking water to impoverished communities in Africa, India, and South America. When asked what inspired her to get involved with the organization she declared, "I have encountered many things and through time I have learned human beings are not programmed to endure a predestined life."
Through benefits, fund-raisers and events, Charity: Water has attracted the attention of countless people, and celebrities and has raised over $3 million dollars in 18 months and has funded over 600 water projects.
Some of the other charities Gelila is involved with include Kageno, Keep a Child Alive and Darfur Action Network.

Hello and happy Friday! Today is another "fabulous" featured artist! This scrapbooker is someone I have admired on scrapbook.com for quite some time! Her pages are so well designed and photography rocks, just check out here gallery here. She also uses color SO WELL on her pages. I adore her style so much! The cool thing is we are both on the same page in April's BHG Scrapbooks, etc! Let's get to know her before I post her sketch and ideas!
My name is Lisa Blastick (kaye222) I'm from sunny Arizona. I have been scrapping since May of 2006 and im totally addicted. I started to scrapbook because of my mother; she always kept photos in photo album. However, when I would ask her when or what the occasion was about she couldn't always remember? So that is when I decided that I was going to have memories for my children and grandchildren to read and enjoy for many years to come. I am a married wife 21 years with 4 children, 2 girls, twin sons, ages 21, 19, 19, 17. We have an Italian greyhound and an old loving ferret. I'm also an rn and work in surgery for over 14 years now…but I would rather be scrapping!
You can see her fabulous gallery here: Kaye222
I will post her sketch and pages in a few minute! I know you will be inspired just like me ;)

There comes a point when a side project becomes bigger than the artist who created it. This happens when the new band has a life of its own, it's own fan base...who many don't even know the guitarist was in some 80s hair metal band. Late Night Alumni's famous member is EDM darling, Kaskade. I guess it's a sign of the times that when a DJ has a side project...it's an actual band. I've been recommended LNA for a couple years now...and two of the people who recommended them to me didn't even know that Kaskade was in the band. One of them didn't even know who Kaskade was. I told her he was a big DJ. She replied, there's no such thing. I just smile and nodded. I guess we won't be seeing her at EDC this year.
Here are the 11 Best Songs By Late Night Alumni:
- Angels and Angles (Haunted)
- You Can Be The One (Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies)
- Finally Found (Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies)
- Empty Streets (Empty Streets)
- In the Ashes (Haunted)
- Seemingly Sleeping (Empty Streets)
- Run A Mile (Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies)
- Light Reading (Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies)
- It's Not Happening (Haunted)
- Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies (Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies)
- What's in A Name (Of Birds, Bees, Butterflies)

Your digestive system is home to an amazing ecosystem; a parallel world of micro-organisms known as your micro-biome or gut flora.
Before you were born your body was free from microbes but at the moment of birth, a massive invasion of bacteria entered your gastrointestinal tract, populating your body with various types of microbes. Now you have possibly thousands of micro species living in your gut. It's a microbial-world that has a vital role. Without them, you would struggle to survive.
In a healthy gut, there are all sorts of bacterial microbes.
There are good guys and there are bad guys. These microbes live in a state of balance. The good guys keep the bad guys in line. You don't even know they are there….well at least until something starts to mess it up. That's when the natural pecking order gets out of balance.
Did you realise you had so many friends on the inside?
I didn't. For 40 years I'd neglected their good work. My body gave me plenty of warning signs, however. Remember, I had a stomach ache for 20 years!
What's causing this?
All sorts of things disrupt this balance but it's mainly our modern lifestyle choices that are too blame. Poor diet, need I say, processed food and sugar are huge players, as is, the overuse of antibiotics. These things upset the gut and weaken our immune system.
This is when the bad guys start to outnumber and overpopulate!
Once the normal equilibrium of the colon is disturbed, its microbes begin to travel into the small intestine or stomach for a look around. Trouble is they like it there. They hang around and get in the way. They begin to hamper digestion. Soon enough, normal harmony in the gut is lost.
These little critters shouldn't be outside the colon.
They are complete foreigners to the small intestine and stomach. Here they compete for nutrients and overload the intestinal tract with waste products. They produce toxic gas too. Basically, these cheeky critters steal and eat our food and then they poo and fart in our stomach. (Gross!). The big problem is that these toxins are then absorbed into the blood stream and begin to cause your immune system to go into overdrive.
No wonder we can feel bloated, nauseous and unwell after we eat!
These are symptoms that shouldn't be ignored.
These are your bodies warning signs. Over time these microbes can cause disease. Really!
As you know, I didn't get Ulcerative Colitis overnight. It took a slow 10 years. Parallel to gut symptoms, I developed a messy head, dermatitis and had trouble sleeping. It was all connected.
Zoom in and look closely at your digestive system.
Let's look at your gut lining and how it can become permeable. Best known as leaky gut. I want you to imagine that the lining of your small intestine has small circular holes like a colander. Food of the same shape and size can slip through these holes but larger, odd shaped pieces can't. The food that slips through continues its healthy digestive journey, nourishing the body.
What happens to the rest?
The rest (and, unfortunately, it's actually most of the food in our modern diets) doesn't slip through these holes at all. It stays in the small intestine. It probably gets a bit stinky. It begins to break down right there.
What's worse, it becomes food for the bad guys and gives them all the encouragement they need to stick around. Why would they want to leave?
There is party food in their new house!
The food source most prized by this bad bacteria is sugar!
Now the body is extremely skilled at converting most of our modern Aussie diet into sugar. Let's look at a standard day….
- Processed cereal for breakfast – carbohydrates, sugar, lactose (milk sugar)
- Sandwich for lunch – more carbohydrates,
- Bowl of pasta for dinner – massive amount of carbs.
High carbohydrate meals are in fact encouraging bad bacteria to proliferate.
So how do you get rid of the bad guys?
It's quite simple; fuel your body with food it doesn't turn to sugar and give your body a chance to re-populate good bacteria. Good bacteria is commonly known as probiotics.
If you deprive the microbial gatecrashers in your intestine of the sugar they love, they can't thrive. They can't even survive!
Nothing is fixed. You can kick out the bad guys!
That's the beautiful thing about this mysterious inner microbial world. It's never too late.
Simple dietary changes can have the good guys out number and kill off the bad guys at any time in your life. When the good bacteria is stable, your body can break down food and absorb nutrients properly again.
You may not be able to control your genetics but you do have control over your diet and lifestyle. Changing your diet is a perfect way to reboot your digestive system and give yourself an overall health boost in the process.

the last 5 months have been an adventure, to say the least. no matter how tired we get, and how many hours of sleep we don't get, we continue to be blessed to be the parents of the two most beautiful girls in the world! it's such a joy for us to see how much Zara loves her little sister. there are no signs of jealousy, which we're thankful for.
zara has been going to nursery for a while now and loves it! she's there every morning till noon. we love it cause it opens so many doors for us to meet people and get involved in their lives for the glory of God.
we're so blessed to see how Zara is now able to communicate very well in both English & Hungarian. It's amazing to see how God has formed young lives to be so open to learn so much.
Odi continues to enjoy being able to be home with the kids, knowing that these early years are so vitally important to their development. I'm also blessed to be able to be around a lot. Our deepest desire is that our kids would love, honor, and serve Jesus.
now that kiera is a bit "older" we're able to have odi's mom come watch the kids while we get a chance to go out and "connect". these are times we love & cherish.
we're also blessed to report that God is continually giving us opportunities through our friendships & relationships to share Jesus with others.
november saw me reach an important "milestone" in the life of Golgota Szeged. After 10 years, by the grace of God, completed teaching through the Old Testament. because I've taught many of the New Testament books over the years (including the 4 Gospels and Acts) we jumped into the New Testament at the book of Romans. I'm hoping to make it through the New Testament in the next couple of years so has to have a complete through the Bible teaching available on our church website for Hungarian Christians.
as is our tradition we had a Christmas Eve service. It's usually at midnight but because Christmas was on a weekend this year we had our service at 10pm. We had 70+ people join with us to worship Jesus on Christmas Eve.
to kick off our new year, the Lord has lead me to teach a series on Sunday mornings, which I'm calling "foundations of our faith". This is important as many of our members are young and grew up in churches but haven't made the important doctrines of the faith their own or they don't understand them. so we're going to take some time talking through these as we have this wonderful opportunity to train believers who will one day go all over the world (we've got people from many nations in our church - Nigera, India, South Korea, Romania, etc.) and it's our hope that people would leave Szeged with a profession & a solid Biblical foundation for life.
more than just training up our international students we want to see many in Szeged and our region come to know Jesus. here is where God is leading us in this. first in Szeged, the Lord has graciously used me to get the pastors & leaders of the churches of Szeged together for monthly prayer breakfasts. we all have the desire to see people know Jesus and to plant churches. we're praying and asking God for His vision on how we're to reach Szeged. We've been doing this for a few months know & I know it's a process, but I'm very excited already about how the Lord is bringing the pastors together.
one of the "strengths" of our church is that we're a bi-lingual (hungarian/english) church. and because so many people here in Hungary want to learn English, it's our desire to use English as a tool to reach out to the youth especially. we'd love to do an English camp this summer. if anyone is interested in coming to help, please let us know!
over the years we've always had people attend our church from Hódmezővásárhely, it's a city 25km from us. it's been on my heart & the hearts of the leadership to venture out that way. We've talked with a few people we know there and in the next month or so will be going our there for prayer & meeting of a possible core group to launch a new Bible study there.
a while back I wrote about the legal status of Calvary Chapel Hungary. The Hungarian Parliament is supposed to vote by February 29th if we're to remain a recognized church or if we have to become a "religious foundation". I'm at the point where it doesn't matter what politicians say, we're going to keep loving Jesus, teaching His Word & sharing His love with people & they can classify us however they want. We want to win the hearts of the "man on the street" for Jesus.
so there is a lot going on, a lot of possibilites & a lot that the Lord is doing, so we need a lot of prayer!
prayer requests
- that we'd fall more in love with Jesus this year.
- for wisdom to raise our daughters to love Jesus.
- that God would continue to use golgota szeged to reach szeged and our surrounding area.
- for strength in this busy season of life.
- for God to lead us in our desire for an English camp & bible study in Hódmezővásárhely.
- that god would raise up people to help in the church in the areas of administration and other practical areas.
ways to help
- pray!!!
- give. if you'd like to help support our ministry you can send your (tax-deductible) offerings through calvary chapel costa mesa (https://www.easytithe.com/f/?k=6SSHN0DEHB4KG6DH) or calvary chapel vista (hhttps://webview.shelbyinc.com/app/04423/Default.aspx tabindex=1&tabid=17). please be sure to indicate that your tithe/offering for us.
