I received an email from a physical product seller who asked me for some ideas to organise her business emails.
Here's the story:
People order products from her. She checks with her vendors if they have stock before she can invoice the customer. She then instructs her vendors to fulfill the orders once the customers pay her. She then needs to keep track of the orders until the vendor confirms delivery to the customer.
This is what I told her:
- Make subfolders for New Pending Stock and Pending Payment.
- When you email the vendor, flag the email for follow-up (a little earlier than you need to) before you send. Click that little button with the red flag in Outlook.
- Drag the customer's email into New Pending Stock while you wait for a response from the vendor.
- When you go into your Sent Items, the email turns red when it is overdue so you can follow-up. Hopefully you won't have to do this very often.
- When you get the response, you can go into New Pending Stock, open the customer's email and respond with the Paypal link. Delete the original email.
- Drag your Sent Item into Pending Payment so you have one place to follow up all pending payments.
I also suggest you get into a routine to process orders. If you're not sure what's the best way to set up your business processes and routines, check out the Organise your Business system.
What is the turnaround time you've communicated to clients? I commit to respond within 24 hours so I know I have to check and process emails at least once a day.
I'd suggest thinking out a routine and writing it on a post-it note which you stick to your computer or wall until you can do it in your sleep. If you need a reminder, use Outlook to beep you when you need to follow up with vendors or customers.

Instead, children are being bought a tree for their bedroom to decorate themselves, while the adults ensure the main Christmas tree is kept more tasteful.
Leading retailers have reported that they have seen customers buying more than one tree, with their research suggesting that the second, smaller one is being bought for children's bedrooms, in another sign that the recession has failed to dent parents splashing out on their offspring at Christmas.
The phenomenon of the two-tree household is also the culmination of a long-running trend that the family Christmas tree has become a status symbol and a design feature, rather than merely the main traditional decoration during the festive period, according to one expert.
B&Q, which said it will have sold more than 250,000 real trees by the end of this weekend, calculated that a quarter of all of its customers buying a tree were also buying a second one – invariably a sparkly, fake tree.
Annette Hill, assistant buyer in horticulture at B&Q said: "There appears to be a growing trend for households displaying more than one tree, giving parents and kids a chance to stamp their mark."
Tesco, too, said that 25 per cent of small fake trees that were being sold were being bought alongside larger more tasteful versions, with the supermarket pointing out that the small versions were ending up in people's hallways or children's bedrooms.
A spokesman for Tesco said: "It's part of the trend to splash out on your children, regardless of the economic conditions."
Part of the problem with allowing children to make their own baubles, angels and stars is that they while they may have charm they can ruin an otherwise tastefully-decorated sitting room, said Laurence Llewelyn Bowen, the interior designer and television presenter.
The lack of sophistication of preschool glue-and-glitter efforts are compounded by being clustered on just the bottom two branches of the tree, with young children unable to reach the higher branches, leaving the top half naked, and the bottom covered in bright lights and tinsel.
Mr Llewelyn Bowen said: "I think the whole two-tree phenomenon is about controlling your environment. Things have changed enormously from when I was growing up and you put up the tree and got out the box of old decorations you used every year.
"Now we are very keen to show off our lavish side at Christmas and have a tree that you can impress the Joneses with. You are never going to do that with it covered in Barbie glitter.
"As far as I am concerned buying your children a tree for their bedroom is a case of the parents indulging themselves."
Retailers have been selling increasingly sophisticated fake trees in recent years, with black, pink and even upside down ones all proving popular with consumers wanting to make a statement with their main Christmas decoration. John Lewis's star fake tree this year is a modern version of a silver birch, made of paper, without a fake green needle in sight.

Will AGCO Blow It Next Quarter?
There's no foolproof way to know the future for AGCO (NYS: AGCO) or any other company. However, certain clues may help you see potential stumbles before they happen -- and before your stock craters as a result.
A cloudy crystal ball
In this series, we use accounts receivable and days sales outstanding to judge a company's current health and future prospects. It's an important step in separating the pretenders from the market's best stocks. Alone, AR -- the amount of money owed the company -- and DSO -- the number of days' worth of sales owed to the company -- don't tell you much. However, by considering the trends in AR and DSO, you can sometimes get a window onto the future.
Sometimes, problems with AR or DSO simply indicate a change in the business (like an acquisition), or lax collections. However, AR that grows more quickly than revenue, or ballooning DSO, can, at times, suggest a desperate company that's trying to boost sales by giving its customers overly generous payment terms. Alternately, it can indicate that the company sprinted to book a load of sales at the end of the quarter, like used-car dealers on the 29th of the month. (Sometimes, companies do both.)
Why might an upstanding firm like AGCO do this? For the same reason any other company might: to make the numbers. Investors don't like revenue shortfalls, and employees don't like reporting them to their superiors.
Is AGCO sending any potential warning signs? Take a look at the chart below, which plots revenue growth against AR growth, and DSO:
Source: S&P Capital IQ. Data is current as of last fully reported fiscal quarter. FQ = fiscal quarter.
The standard way to calculate DSO uses average accounts receivable. I prefer to look at end-of-quarter receivables, but I've plotted both above.
Watching the trends
When that red line (AR growth) crosses above the green line (revenue growth), I know I need to consult the filings. Similarly, a spike in the blue bars indicates a trend worth worrying about. AGCO's latest average DSO stands at 38.3 days, and the end-of-quarter figure is 42.0 days. Differences in business models can generate variations in DSO, and business needs can require occasional fluctuations, but all things being equal, I like to see this figure stay steady. So, let's get back to our original question: Based on DSO and sales, does AGCO look like it might miss its numbers in the next quarter or two?
The numbers don't paint a clear picture. For the last fully reported fiscal quarter, AGCO's year-over-year revenue grew 5.7%, and its AR grew 1.3%. That looks OK. End-of-quarter DSO decreased 5.2% from the prior-year quarter. It was up 33.6% versus the prior quarter. That looks like seasonality. Still, I'm no fortuneteller, and these are just numbers. Investors putting their money on the line always need to dig into the filings for the root causes and draw their own conclusions.

GREEN TIP: When buying sleepwear, avoid pajamas containing flame retardants, synthetic materials and pesticide laden materials. Look instead for pajamas that are snug fitting and made with natural, organic fibers.
Flame Retardants
In the United States, children's sleepwear sized 9 months to 14 years must meet certain flammability requirements. The requirement is intended to protect children from burns.
Chemicals used on pajamas or pajama fabrics include chlorinated and brominated flame retardants, inorganic flame retardants such as antimony oxides, and phosphate-based compounds. Chlorinated and brominated flame retardants are contaminating the environment and accumulating in the human body. For example, polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been linked to doing damage to the nervous and reproductive systems and impairing thyroid function. North Americans have the highest body burden of PBDEs in the world.
Source: Avoiding Flame Retardants In Cozy Children's Pajamasby Jennifer Taggart, TheSmartMama
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), there have been unintended consequences linked to using these chemicals. There is growing evidence that PBDEs persist in the environment and accumulate in living organisms, as well as toxicological testing that indicates these chemicals may cause liver toxicity, thyroid toxicity, and neurodevelopmental toxicity.
According to Erin Royer, owner of Snug Organics, PBDEs have been linked to damage of the thyroid, immune system, reproductive system, and liver. They disturb brain development, learning abilities, hormone function and can cause cancer, hyperactivity (ADD & ADHD), obesity, diabetes and permanent behavioral changes. These are all the same conditions that are increasing in our children today, who are the most highly exposed.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) requires that children's sleepwear contain flame-retardants or be snug fitting. Erin suggests that parents choose "snug fitting" due to the dangers of flame-retardants, which are added to materials during the manufacturing process in order to reduce the likelihood of a garment catching fire. Flowing nightgowns and baggy tops and bottoms have a higher chance of coming into contact with an open flame than a snug fitting pair of pajamas.
If you don't want flame retardants, then always look for the specific key phrases "must be snug fitting" and "not flame resistant."
Most children's sleepwear is made of polyester (fleece), nylon acetate, and rayon. These fabrics begin their lives as a vat of chemicals, including petroleum. They have a prolonged landfill life, create more dependence on oil and take 40% more energy to produce than cotton. They are not breathable and block out air sometimes causing the body to overheat. These synthetics can also emit toxic gasses and are allergenic, causing respiratory disease in some cases. Polyester is plastic and will melt when heated. Synthetics must also contain flame retardants.
Conventional cotton is one of the most pesticide-saturated crop in the world and one of the most environmentally destructive. 90% of production involves the use of synthetic chemicals. It takes one-third of a pound of pesticides and fertilizers to make one cotton t-shirt. 70% of conventional cotton farmers use GMO seeds and treat them with fungicides and insecticides. Synthetic fertilizers and herbicides are added to the soil to kill weeds, five of which are probable carcinogens. Aerial spraying of these chemicals drift onto farm workers, neighboring wildlife and communities. They runoff into our water, cannot be eliminated by water treatment centers, and end up in our city water systems. Residues of these chemicals have been found in human amniotic fluid, breast milk and fatty tissues. The biggest problem with non-organic cotton fabric is the finishes. Softeners and brighteners like bleach, formaldehyde, heavy metals, and ammonia are used in the finishing process of conventional cotton and a scientific link has been proven between these toxic chemicals and cancer, endocrine disruption and even reproductive disorders. Permanent press finish releases formaldehyde and no amount of washing removes permanent press.
Source: Erin Royer, owner of Snug Organics
The Healthy Children Project recommends
buying clothing, bedding and furniture made of natural fibers, such as cotton and wool, which do not melt near heat and as such do not need to contain flame-retardants.
The Environmental Working Group says,
To avoid any chemicals in sleepwear and reduce the risk of igniting sleepwear, we suggest you choose natural fibers that are inherently fire resistant and snug-fitting.
My Green Side's web pick of the week:
Organic Authority
Organic Authority seeks to change the way Americans think about the word organic, washing away the grungy hippy image of the past. Their goal is to disseminate information while educating the public about the benefits of buying and choosing organic produce, meats, and products, while promoting sustainable living and an organic lifestyle. They believe that implementing small fundamental changes in the choices we make everyday will have a large impact on the future of healthy families around the world and protect Mother Earth for generations to come.

At church one day, a girl got up to give an offering. I do remember what she talked about, but what I remember most is how she talked about it. She spoke a language I could understand. Since then, Nora and I have become really great friends. There is so much joy in watching a story unfold. Nora and Paul's has been a story I have been on the edge of my seat for: from friendship, to a really long road trip out west, to dating, to lots of adventure, to engagement.... and now to marriage. It has been an incredibly beautiful story, and I am honored to be a part of it.

I have been involve in a documentary called "Sense the Wind". This documentary has been in the process for 4 years now following four talented blind sailors! I have filmed on this project just this year.
Sitting in the airport typing this, I am having a hard time expressing the wonderful experience it is working with these people! There is no difference on the race course than any other sailor trying to win, but off the course they have more in common and have enjoyed building relationships with each other over the years.
The documentary will come out next year and I will post here when and where it will be shown. It will describe how the blind sailors, can sail and also what they do when they go home, just like the rest of us, home to their family and work.

It looks like we're going to wait until Netflix gets Deep Space Nine in October to keep going on Star Trek. So right now we're kicking back with all three seasons of Wonder Woman, a show Becca loved growing up but which I've always been more or less ambivalent on, besides the obvious eye candy. But what the heck, here are my thoughts on the episodes of the first season.
Overall, it's a fun season of TV. It ain't poetry, but the characters are approached with emotional sincerity and even when the show cheaps out here and there, it has something to say. I think it especially succeeds in the character of Wonder Woman herself. Lynda Carter is fantastic in the role, very optimistic and genuine in a way that's not necessarily naive or guileless, but just kind of wholesome. I like my Wonder Woman this way; she believes in the best humanity can achieve, but she's not stupid. She's very feminine, very feminist, but not a mouthpiece for preachy messages. She's a woman, and a wonder. It's something Hollywood just can't balance nowadays, for reasons that completely escape me--it's seen in Hollywood as a problem that can't be solved, how to make someone an action hero and a woman at the same time. Pathetic.

The No. 2 paring of Paulina Akiona and Rockelle Gholson defeated Avie Butsko and Kelli Dowell in straight sets, 21-15 and 21-16 as the Chargers took game two. The Chargers No. 3 pairing of Brianna Johnson and Emily Witz sealed the victory in game three by defeating Mandy Sides and Kelcy Schumacher in straight sets 21-17 and 21-17. The Chargers continued to dominate the Gauchos as their No. 4 pairing of Pam Fa'Alata and Sina Amasio took game four by defeating Landy Armstrong and Lauren Whitehouse in straight sets, 21-19 and 21-14. The Chargers encountered some resistance from the Gauchos in game five as the No. 5 paring of Willa Allshouse and Ateya Allen needed three sets to defeat Maraih Torres and Keara O'Brean. Allshouse and Allen took the first set 21-18, but Torres and O'Brien responded by taking the second set 21-19 to even the match at one set apiece. Allshouse and Allen then easily took the last set 15-8 as they finished off the Gauchos 5-0.

Back when time froze, in the midst of our big snowstorm, the world seemed to stand still. Our days weren't scheduled full to the brim. Meetings, work, lessons, and fun all got canceled. We had snugly mornings with special breakfast, tv watching naps, toasty fires, luxurious meals, a glass at wine at 5pm, and plenty of time to lounge.We soaked each other up in a way that hardly ever happens. No obligations. No to-do lists. No guilt because, hey, the whole world was standing still. It made me feel like I had all of the time in the world. I didn't feel this need to write and sort my thoughts because my thoughts were calm, happy, and completely present in the moment. I'm grateful for a taste of what that feels like, a chance to experience that so I have an idea of what I am trying to achieve.
Then, 10 days ago, the world snapped back into living (even though we still had snow drifts in places a couple of days ago!) and time seemed to go faster then ever. Every moment feels scheduled and planned, my calendar is dictating my life. When I get home I try to put all of the craziness aside and spend a few hours pretending that time is still frozen, trying to capture that just a little bit of that feeling from the week that time stood still. Pretending that I don't have a to-do list with deadlines that seem impossible to meet and that I don't have people who are counting on me and that I'm responsible to and for. I try to spend at least some time being completely present in the moment and enjoy what I've got around me. Because what I've got is pretty amazing and I don't want to miss it.

Torah is the Hebrew word (תּוֹרָה) meaning "Law", "Direction", or "Instruction".[1] The Torah is the Hebrew manuscript also called the Law of Moses (Torat Moshe תּוֹרַת־מֹשֶׁה). It is the most sacred text of Judaism, which contains the Jewish written and oral law.
The Torah is the first 5 books of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament. It is the first of the three divisions of the Hebrew canon: The Torah (תורה), Neviim (נביאים) (prophets) and Kethuvim (כתובים) (the Writings).[2] The five books and their names and pronunciations in original Hebrew are as follows:
- Genesis (בראשית, Bereshit: "In the beginning...")
- Exodus (שמות, Shemot: "Names")
- Leviticus (ויקרא, Vayyiqra: "And he called...")
- Numbers (במדבר, Bammidbar: "In the wilderness...")
- Deuteronomy (דברים, Devarim: "Words", or "Discourses")
This portion of the Christian Bible is also called the Pentateuch, which is derived from the Greek words penta meaning "five", and teukhos which means "implement" ("implementation of five books"). In rabbinic literature the word Torah denotes both these five books, Torah Shebichtav (תורה שבכתב, "Torah that is written"), and an Oral Torah, Torah Shebe'al Peh (תורה שבעל פה, "Torah that is spoken"). The Oral Torah consists of the traditional interpretations and amplifications handed down by word of mouth from generation to generation and now embodied in the Talmud (תַּלְמוּד) and Midrash (מדרש) .[3]
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (collectively know as the Patriarchs) and Moses are the four major figures of the Torah.[4] The Torah was given to God´s people with precepts for behaviour in this world in obedience to the Lord.[5]

Winner Announced : Lenox Opal Innocence Place Settings
Thank you to Lenox for sponsoring a great contest this past week - it's now time to announce a winner before launching another one in just a short while. I asked entrants to leave a comment letting me know what their favorite Lenox Opal Innocence Pattern was and why.
Thank you to everyone who entered. The winner is K Torkko who wrote: "Oh, we couldn't chose between the original Opal Innocence and the striped! So we mixed and matched the pieces from the two patterns to create our own china. I can't wait once our registry is out there to receive some of these! I had loved the pattern for a few years and was sooo happy that my fiance, after looking at everything, agreed that it was his favorite, too! We mixed in some stripes to keep it a little more regal and add some masculinity in it. I LOVE that they incorporated new patterns in the same line so that all the colors will match perfectly! Our wedding date is June 27, 2010."
Congratulations K Torkko - I'll be emailing you personally today for your mailing address. Please note: winner(s) have 48 business hours to reply or another winner will be selected.
The new contest launches in just a bit.

My problem with setting powders has always been that they take away the glow that I've worked hard to create. I want to set my makeup so it lasts, but I want my skin to remain luminous, not dull. Finally, we have a powder that does just that.
The Bourjois Java Rice Powder has been in my collection for some time, but I've never really known how to use it. Eventually I plucked up the courage to put it all over my face and I was very impressed with the result. My makeup lasted all day but still had a glow in all the right places.
It's a loose setting powder that contains very small shimmer particles. That's why I was hesitant; I assumed that shimmer would translate to glitter on the face. It doesn't. There is not a single detectable fleck or shimmer or glitter when this is on the face. Despite it leaving your skin looking luminous, this powder is suitable for all skin types.
I like to apply the powder with the Real Techniques Multi Task Brush because it picks up the right amount of product and applies it to the skin evenly. The only downside to the Java Rice Powder is that since it's a loose powder, it's messy. It also has quite a strong scent. I can't quite put my finger on what is smells like, but I'd give it a whiff in store. Neither of these is a major problem for me. At £9.99, you can't really complain!
Overall, I'm really glad I gave the Bourjois Java Rice Powder a go. It's great for keeping your makeup in place whilst still giving a luminous finish.
Have you tried this powder? What are your thoughts?
Thanks for reading,

BizBash C.E.O. David Adler: What the Inauguration and Women's Marches Teach Us About Events
Using social media and new face-to-face organizing techniques may enhance future mass-movement events.
David Adler (@DavidAdler) is the C.E.O. and founder of BizBash.
As event professionals, we sometimes underestimate the responsibility and importance of the skills that have been perfected over thousands of years of human gatherings. This past weekend, inaugural activities and the women's marches around the world showcased the power of new styles of event organizing that combine both digital and face-to-face as well as the pairing of all different types of events to create the emotional connections that spark movements. The inaugural events went according to plan and were executed with the professionalism of the hundreds of nonpartisan companies who have perfected the event over hundreds of years. The march in Washington out-performed even the most optimistic projects using the best of social media to mobilize.
In fact, one takeaway is that an event is really a series of events that has a life cycle that continues far after the experience ends. An event is a living, breathing organism where the organizers curate community, content, and context to achieve a result both on a macro level and on a personal level for the participants.
Event organizing has no political affiliation, but has the potential to impact and influence millions. An event is no longer just the day of an event, but the entire process from strategic planning and the digital footprint to leaving an event site in pristine condition. Event organizing also now heavily relies on both the digital and face-to-face realm. The pairing is as important as choosing a great wine for a meal. It is the challenge of both sides of the digital and face-to-face divide to learn from each other and to create better ways to integrate for an enhanced experience.
I heard from event organizers who participated in the Women's March that the face-to-face experience was emotional, but from an event and budget perspective, it left a lot to be desired. Logistics were stretched beyond any reasonable expectation, including the fact that most attendees were on their own with little to no instructions. However, most participants knew what they were getting into with an event of that magnitude.
These and other logistic issues actually pointed out the need for more open-source organizing tools that are not dependent on the deep pockets of the brands or PACs that normally come to the rescue of important causes. Even yet-unthought-of solutions around sound, video, people-moving, and communications could be the natural extensions of the digital solutions that are being innovated daily.
Modern thinking in events is that most of "social physics action" doesn't happen on the stage and on the formal platforms, but rather on the bus getting to the event, on line waiting to get in, or even going to the restrooms or sitting down next to someone new.
In fact some organizers now judge an event not by number of people who attend but the amount of conversations that are being curated by attendees. So, smart event organizers need to be as concerned about those conversations as much as the logistics for maximum impact of intent.
Scott Heiferman, the co-founder of Meetup, always says that when people have a conversation they inevitably get to the word "let's"—as in "let's go to lunch," "let's solve a problem," or even "let's start a revolution."
So, while we recognize everyone in the event industry who organized, secured, schlepped, planned, wrote, tweeted, stayed up all night, served, directed, wired, hoisted, designed, shipped, painted, volunteered, photographed, cooked, cleaned up, broke down, loaded-in, loaded-out, applauded, celebrated, drove, programmed, and participated, we also urge everyone to take the responsibility of event organizing in the 21st century more seriously and stay up-to-date with the fast pace of change that is influencing events as well as everything else.

1. Cabbages in four pots are growing with stems getting thicker and stronger. I suppose strong stem is the prerequisite for the formation of cabbage head. So far grasshoppers have been shying away. But other veggies, pakchoy and sawi, just a metre away had been savaged to the bones. Grasshoppers are having great days this week. It is a sign for me to put a rest at leafy vegetable gardening. Let grasshoppers, after realising there is no more food around, pack and move somewhere else. A month would be enough I guess.
2. Surprisingly other veggies, where marigolds are close by, as companions are doing just fine. It probably proves a point that have mentioned by many about marigold's ability to shove pests away. From past experience, marigolds too will be feasted by pests, when they are old, as flowers are about to dry up. Nature has a system in store for any living organism, that body defense will weaken upon old age......
3. Now back to cabbages. They are now at the early stage of precupping, judging by the number of leaves. There is an average of 13 leaves in each. The innermost heart leaves are very much in upright position. I put down the stages of cabbage growth:-
Cabbage growth stages
Stage 1: Cotyledon (seed leaves). No true leaves present.
Stage 2: Seedling, up to 5 true leaves
Stage 3: 6-8 true leaves
Stage 4: 9-12 true leaves. Base of stem is still visible from above.
Stage 5: Precupping (approximately 13 - 19 leaves).By the end of this stage, the base of the stem and the bases of all leaves are concealed when the plant is viewed from above. The innermost heart leaves are growing in an upright fashion and are visible without moving any of the leaves.Stage 6: Cupping (approximately 20 - 26 leaves)
Stage 7: Early Head Formation 2.5 - 4" diameter head
Stage 8: Head Fill 3 - 8" diameter head
Stage 9: Mature 6 -12" diameter head

Most popular statistics around the world may prove that women make most of the health care decisions in the home. Here's a straight forward article by Dr. Mehmet Oz, vice chairman and professor of surgery at Columbia University, a best-selling author and the host of a TV talk show 'The Dr. Oz Show'. His experience at his heart-surgery practice has been that the most meaningful conversations about cases are with wives, daughters, mothers and sisters — even if it's the husbands, sons, fathers or brothers who are the patients!
Women seem to know instinctively what to do when health is on the line, and more importantly, they can use this innate ability to teach their family healthy habits. This handy article lists ways to put that to work:
1. Practice — and teach — good health habits through role-playing and games.
2. Be a good role model.
3. Healthy eating depends on making it easy for everyone to do the right thing.
4. Whenever possible, plan your family's health care in advance.
5. Post the family health laws as conspicuously as possible.

Steven Pennamen's freshman effort, Tablet of my Heart,is…
"the result of ten years of prayer.. " and it shows. And lyrics serve
as the central focal point of the songs.
While the tenor does turn in a fine performance vocally, he doesn't
get carried away with unnecessary acrobatics that only serve as a
distraction from the music.
This acoustically driven album is reminiscent of the seventies,
while the production value actually sounds quite current.
It's obvious to me that God is guiding Pennamen's music.
Tablet of My Heart CD
Christian music is music expressing a personal belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. As a songwriter, writing Christian songs provides the opportunity to express my Christian life and faith.

Ark of the Covenant
The Hebrew Bible refers to the inner sanctuary of the Tabernacle where the Ark of The Covenant was kept during the First Temple. God communicated with Moses from between the two cherubim's on the Ark's cover.
In the book of Exodus, our God (Yahweh) gave Moses detailed instructions on how the Ark was to be constructed.
The Ark was to be made of arcadia wood and covered in gold to house the Tablets of Stone Moses received during his forty day stay on Mt. Sinai.
The Ark contained the Tablets of Stone, Aaron's staff that had budded, a jar of manna and the first writings of Moses, (the Torah)
Known as the Holy of Holies, the Ark was placed behind a wall as described in Exodus 25 where God would meet Moses and where God would deliver all of His commands for the Israelites.
As the Israelites marched before the Israelite army, they would carry the Ark in advance of the people when on a march or facing battle. When carried the Ark was covered and hidden with a large veil made of skins and a blue cloth, always concealed from from the people and the priests who carried it.
In the New Testament the Ark is mentioned in the Letter to the Hebrews 9:4 and in the Book of Revelations 11:19.
The Ark of the Covenant is an enlightening study and I would recommend for all to study its history.
† Revelations 11:19
Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant.
And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake and a severe hailstorm.

Bolt down the doors, the Unconcecrated are back!
It's been years since Mary escaped from the Forest of Hands and Teeth, leaving behind love ones without a second thought. She moved inside a lighthouse, where she raised her teenage daughter, Gabry, to fear the zombies that invade the village. But when Gabry and her friends break the boundary everything comes crashing down.
It felt awkward at first to see a YA character like Mary grow up in terms of responsabilities, but not within. This time we needed a lead that was going to take the story in a different direction. Thank you Gabry for showing us a conscience at work.
A bitten boyfriend, a secret cult and a weapon against the virus -- Carrie Ryan packs a lot of punch in this sequel. If only it hadn't been stretched out to the max in order to push for a trilogy.

U.S. companies are saying one thing on climate policy and funding quite another, according to a new Reuters investigation.
The news agency reviewed donations made during the 2016 election cycle by the political action committees (PACs) of 30 of the biggest publicly traded U.S. companies that signed President Barack Obama's "American Business Act on Climate Change Pledge" in 2015—and in doing so, signaled an "ongoing commitment to climate action."
But Reuters found that 25 of those 30 companies—including DuPont, PepsiCo, AT&T, and Google—"are funding the campaigns of lawmakers featured on a 'climate deniers' list that was put together by Organizing For Action, a non-profit created by former Obama campaign aides to advocate his agenda."
Reuters reports:
The list includes more than 130 members of Congress, nearly all Republicans, and is a who's who of the biggest opponents of Obama's plan to combat climate change. Some of those on the list dispute the label "denier" and describe themselves as climate change "skeptics."
The list includes Republican Congressman Kevin Cramer of North Dakota, an energy advisor to presidential candidate Donald Trump who once argued the Earth was cooling not warming, and Republican U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, who last year held up a snowball on the Senate floor as evidence global warming does not exist.
The review found PepsiCo and DuPont's political action committees gave about half or more of the money from their top donations in support of senators and congressmen on the list. That amounted to $56,500 from the Pepsi PAC's 29 donations of $2,500 and above, and $40,000 from the DuPont PAC's 19 donations of $2,000 and above.
This "disconnect between how these companies present themselves to the public on environmental issues, and how they manage their political contributions to support business-friendly policy" would likely not go over well with investors, one asset manager told Reuters.
"No company should want to be perceived as espousing progressive climate policies on the one hand," said Lauren Compere, managing director at sustainable investment manager Boston Common Asset Management, "while funding climate deniers on the other."
Research from the Center for American Progress Action Fund earlier this year found that more than six in 10 Americans are represented by a climate denier in Congress—thanks in part, it seems, to the country's biggest corporations.
