Generous Spaciousness 2013: My Life Changed ~ by Gary Hazen
A month ago I attended a retreat that just days before I hadn't even heard of by a ministry that only weeks before that I had come across through apparent happenstance during my internship. This apparent happenstance was actually divine providence through the amazing work of the Holy Spirit. This ministry was New Direction, and this retreat was the Generous Spaciousness Conference Retreat (GSCR) at Crieff Hills Retreat Center in, quite literally, the middle of nowhere. It was beautiful, quiet and a refreshing change of scenery from the city life.
I was invited to go on this GSCR by Wes Patterson and at first I have to admit that I was hesitant to attend. This hesitancy came from a place of insecurity where I was afraid that if I went on the retreat that I would be moving on into a place of self acceptance, and I felt unworthy at the time of this kind of acceptance. It wasn't until I spoke to my brother Jason that I realized that this fear was not a valid reason to deny myself the opportunity to learn, grow and move forward, and taking that first step was one of the best decisions I have ever made. It ultimately helped me experience true wholeness and authenticity in Christ, as well as engage with more members of the Body of Christ in a safe and genuine environment while learning about Generous Spaciousness.
That being said, I am going to give you the top five things about this retreat that changed my life due to New Direction.

VeggieTales Every Day with God Devotional For Kids
As a Christian family, it's important to us to have Biblical literature around for our children to read and understand on their own. Once our kids are capable of reading, we like to purchase a devotional for their age and reading level. So, when I had the opportunity to review VeggieTales Every Day With God arrived, I couldn't … [Read more…]

It seems that G2 owners are experiencing something sort of similar with their new phones and I am curious as to which issue you guys consider worse. Its probably too early to make any real judgement calls on the G2, so we can only go by what we currently see right now

A delicious spinach salad, loaded with fresh blueberries, kiwi, red onion, balsamic baked chicken, pistachios, and creamy balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
Have I mentioned before how much I LOVE salads?? I pretty much could – and do – eat them every day! To the point where my kids will ask me why I eat so many salads. And my siblings will ask me to bring a salad to every family gathering. And if I don't have any greens in the fridge, I will have a mini panic attack! Okay….not really. But since it's my go to lunch, I will definitely have to come up with an alternate plan!
One of my favorite places to eat salads? At restaurants. I know that might sound crazy – like who orders a salad at a restaurant – but when you love salad as much as I do, you barely even make it past all the delicious options on that first page! I think it used to bother Jorden…he used to think that paying for salad was a waste of money…but he's since realized there's nothing he can do about it. It makes me happy!
My love of salads actually goes back to college, and probably even earlier. I remember taking FULL advantage of the dorm cafeteria's salad bar. People would comment on my "monster salads" and I even earned the nickname "Salad Queen." Now that's something to be proud of! But here's the deal. I don't like a wimpy salad. I want it to fill me up and leave me satisfied! Which means it needs to be LOADED!
I'm not picky about my toppings….I like variety….but I am picky about what goes well together. I love including different meats, cheeses, nuts, veggies, and fruits, and I love experimenting with new combinations! And, of course, I'm a huge believer that the dressing ties it all together….and it better be good! Believe it or not, with this particular salad I was inspired by the colors first! I wanted it to be pretty….and then delicious. Hey – if food doesn't look good, it doesn't taste good, right?? At least that's what this Salad Queen says….!
Pistachio Spinach Salad with Creamy Balsamic Dressing
Pistachio Spinach Salad
- 3 c. baby spinach
- 1/2 c. fresh blueberries
- 1 kiwi peeled and sliced
- 1/2 large chicken breast baked and sliced*
- 1/8 c. pistachios
- 1 slice red onion quartered
- *I covered my chicken in balsamic vinaigrette dressing and baked in a covered glass baking dish at 375 degrees for approx. 40 min.
Creamy Balsamic Dressing
- 1/4 c. sour cream
- 1/4 c. mayonnaise
- 3 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tbsp.minced red onion
- 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. sugar
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
Layer toppings over bed of spinach.
Combine all ingredients and mix until smooth.

Stewart O'Nan probed the neglect of Yates in "The Lost World of Richard Yates: How the Great Writer of the Age of Anxiety Disappeared from Print".[4]
William Styron, who once gave a reading of the novel's opening chapter at Boston University, called Revolutionary Road "a deft, ironic, beautiful novel that deserves to be a classic."
Kurt Vonnegut called it "The Great Gatsby of my time... one of the best books by a member of my generation."
Tennessee Williams also praised the book: "Here is more than fine writing; here is what, added to fine writing, makes a book come immediately, intensely and brilliantly alive. If more is needed to make a masterpiece in modern American fiction, I am sure I don't know what it is."

NSW State of Origin legend Andrew Johns concedes Queensland is now the heartland of rugby league.
As Brisbane prepare to meet the Townsville-based Cowboys in Sunday's first-ever all-Queensland NRL grand final, a closer look shows north Queensland is currently the sport's most successful region.
The Cowboys' under-20s side fell one game short of the Holden Cup decider.
The Townsville Blackhawks play in the Intrust Super Cup grand final on Sunday in just their first season, while the Townsville Stingers also took out under-16 and under-18 honours this year.
Just last week, Kirwan State High took out the national schoolboys title.
Even Kirwan Primary School participate in a state final on Sunday.
"It is the heartland of rugby league now," Johns declared on The Sunday Footy Show on the Nine Network.
"You look at all the great young players coming through, you look at the performances from schoolboy level – 16s, 18s … Queensland dominate right through.
"Unfortunately for us, it hurts."
Four-time premiership-winner Peter Sterling said Sunday's local derby against the Broncos is the Cowboys' best chance of lifting the trophy, 10 years after losing their only grand final appearance against the Wests Tigers.
Skipper Johnathan Thurston is the only current player remaining from that team.
"This is the best Cowboys team we've ever seen," Sterling said.
"Even going back to when they played in the grand final in 2005, with all due respect, Justin Smith was the five-eighth that year.
"Michael Morgan, once he was back into contention to playing the season out, all of a sudden they were a chance. I thought they were gone without Morgan.
"I thought he was close to their best again last night."

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
England after the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Molds family lived in Cheshire. Before migrating to Normandy and then England, this family was originally the lords of Monte Alto, in Italy. Their name is thought to be a version of this place-name which underwent significant corruption through translation through several languages before being Anglicized.
Molds Early Origins
Cheshire where the family of Maude, originally the Lords of Monte Alto, in Italy, settled in the Lordships and manors of Montalt and Hawarden in the county of Flint.
Molds Spelling Variations
Molds Spelling Variations
Anglo-Norman names are characterized by a multitude of spelling variations. When the Normans became the ruling people of England in the 11th century, they introduced a new language into a society where the main languages of Old and later Middle English had no definite spelling rules. These languages were more often spoken than written, so they blended freely with one another. Contributing to this mixing of tongues was the fact that medieval scribes spelled words according to sound, ensuring that a person's name would appear differently in nearly every document in which it was recorded. The name has been spelled Maude, Maud, Mawd, Mold, Mould, Moulds, Molds and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
For many English families, the political and religious disarray that plagued their homeland made the frontiers of the New World an attractive prospect. Thousands migrated, aboard cramped disease-ridden ships. They arrived sick, poor, and hungry, but were welcomed in many cases with far greater opportunity than at home in England. Many of these hardy settlers went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations in which they landed. Among early immigrants bearing the name Molds or a variant listed above were: John Maud who settled with his wife and four children in Boston Massachusetts in 1769; Daniel Maude settled in Boston Massachusetts in 1635; Jacob Maud arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1751.

Inspired by the concept of bulk shopping and leaving the quantity purchased to the autonomy of the customer, Bulk Nation opened its first store in Sarasota, Florida in 2013.
Bulk Nation was convinced that Americans were ready for a specialty bulk food grocer that offered an extensive selection of fresh quality products at great value.
Today, the bulk food sector is very limited, but a growing segment, as to why Bulk Nation is at the forefront of a popular and growing trend. Our product selection is extremely extensive, while we pride ourselves on the freshness and integrity of our products. Buying in bulk and not paying for the packaging has allowed us to pass that savings on to the customer, thus providing a valuable selling proposition.
Bulk Nation is a growing American retailer with sites on national expansion as they enjoy a high level of recognition and loyalty among current patrons. The concept is naturally located in high-traffic locations most notably power centers among other of the nation's largest retailers.
Our presence remains in the Florida market currently, with open expansion available in markets throughout the United States.
The Bulk Nation concept is simple by design, yet sets forth a very in-depth selection of products ranging from nuts & seeds, spices, pasta/beans/rice, baking products, dried fruit, snacks, and candy. Bulk Nation carries both conventional and organic products to ensure customer demand is being met.
Bulk Nation is on the cutting edge of consumer demand and evolving food trends and constantly sourcing offerings to remain unique in the market.

Occupation of employment
There were more professionals in Sandringham in 2011 than any other occupation.
Sandringham's occupation statistics quantify the occupations in which the residents work (which may be within the residing area or elsewhere). This will be influenced by the economic base and employment opportunities available in the area, education levels, and the working and social aspirations of the population. When viewed with other indicators, such as Educational Qualifications and Individual Income, Occupation is a key measure for evaluating Sandringham's socio-economic status and skill base.
Derived from the two Census questions:
'In the main job held last week, what was the person's occupation?' and 'What are the main tasks that the person himself/herself usually performs in that occupation?'
Persons aged 15 years and over

Originally posted on Making Change at Walmart
Working at the world's largest private employer is no easy task. On top of receiving low-wages and inconsistent scheduling, many Walmart workers and managers alike continue to come forward online to share their horror stories, documenting the lack of respect they experience.
As one manager recently told Gawker:
"Along with the 'productivity' issue used to terminate people and deny them unemployment rights, management seems to have a new weapon in their arsenal in the form of 'Gross Misconduct/Ethics'. They pull this out like a cheap pistol and use it for any reason you can imagine to circumvent federal labor laws. Once a statement is written and approved by store management, you are terminated with no recourse."
The former department manager goes on to warn Walmart workers to document everything, so management can't easily dismiss them without reason.
While many of the recent terminations have been illegally retaliatory against workers who are standing up for their right to speak out for change at Walmart, workers report that everyone is vulnerable to seemingly arbitrary termination. In the same report to Gawker, a Walmart stocker of ten years reflects on the unrealistic work quotas the company assigns and the discipline that follows when someone fails to reach an unachievable goal.
"The truth of the matter is Walmart is a horrible place to work. These experiences happen to everyone who work for this company on a store level. It doesn't matter if you are management or an associate you are always going to have to deal with these types of situations because life like this is the true Walmart culture."
As workers continue to raise these questions, online forums and sites like Gawker have provided an easy and anonymous place for them to voice their dissent. You can read an extensive list of these stories on a previous Gawker post.

Three main characteristics are: the klinker rounded hull and double ended design. The Baleeira is heavily built and has great seaworthiness for offshore fishing. Therefore the keel is usually made of Peroba or Canela timber and the bow and stern beams from Cedro. Nowadays they are not built anymore.

Glue and Gouache
Recently I did a post on an email that a fellow collage artist had sent me regarding glues. I also have done a recent post about a collage artist that used gouache to create flowing effects in their collage work.
I wanted to tie the 2 together and write just a little about the combination of glue and gouache. While visiting Matthew Roses's The Whole Truth exhibit in Vermont, I was able to get up close and examine the deep and complex textures that he creates. I wanted to get exact information, and in an email here's what he says regarding his materials:
"I've used a zillion kinds of glue and my favorite was a one liter bottle from BIB / Giotto and distributed by Omycolor. but they changed the formula and when I called them, they denied they did, but it's clearly a different glue with different surface qualities when it dries. The new version is high gloss. I'm scavenging Paris for the old formula now. For gouache, I've used most of everything, but prefer the large one and two-liter bottles from Giotto and Dalbe. The glue I tend to mix with about 1 part hot water with every 3-4 parts glue. Another glue I've used a lot is Sadler (your name!). I used to buy it in tubs of 10 kilos from the BHV in Paris. I no longer use the expensive mediums that dry to an impossibly high end finish because I can't scrap them away as easily or effectively with steel wool. Some of my "paintings" mix layers of gouache and glue then are drenched in water and scraped ... so as to reveal underlying colors. Sometimes I leave the finish flat and matte and other times I'll apply more glue on top to create that cake icing look. "
This texture is really thick and I like it very much. It adds depth and an air of antiquity to his pieces. Visibility of this texture on the web is limited, but in person, the effect is stunning.
There is a wealth of Matthew Rose collage work here and you can also visit his blog here.

This is rather tangential, but I have (and quite often recently) worked with gouache diluted with Coca-Cola instead of water; you can see an example at http://www.artbreak.com/work/show/2995 .

The Role of Cultural Processes in Religious and Spiritual Development
Date: Wednesday, April 5, 2017
Time: 9:30am – 5pm
Location: Room 18 A, Level 4 of the Austin Convention Center
Registration is FREE! RSVP here.
As developmental psychology has given spirituality and religion more attention as important domains and contexts of development, research on religious and spiritual development has flourished recently; for example, the soon-to-be-released Special Issue of the British Journal of Developmental Psychology on Religion, Culture and Development. This preconference convenes a growing community of scholars interested in theoretically understanding and empirically examining the nature and function of religion and spirituality in the lives of children and adolescents. Additionally, we explore ways to conceptualize and operationalize religion and spirituality as contexts in which human development occurs. This preconference will help scholars interested in the study of religious and spiritual development think about how religious and spiritual development can inform traditional assumptions and approaches to understanding developmental processes. In the past, attendees have represented research from multiple interacting dimensions of development (socioemotional, cognitive, psychopathology) and varying dimensions of religious & spiritual development (concepts, cognitive processes, moral reasoning, identity, parenting, etc.). The program ensures diversity in the religious belief systems discussed, the cultural systems from which participants are recruited, and the methods taken in the study of religious and spiritual development.
In addition to keynote speakers, the preconference features a variety of formats, including round-table discussions, poster presentations, and research talks in order to foster discussion, build research networks, and connect younger and more established scholars to each other. SRCD attendees whose work addresses any of the above topics or who simply wish to learn more about this these issues are invited to attend.
Schedule: Here is a link to the schedule: SRCD 2017 PreCon Schedule
Dr. Cristine Legare (The University of Texas at Austin), Does the Body Survive Death? Cultural Variation in Beliefs about Life Everlasting
Dr. Kathleen Corriveau (Boston University), The Role of Religious Exposure and Culture on Children and Adult's Reasoning about What Is Real and What Is Possible
Dr. Pamela Ebstyne King (Fuller Theological Seminary) & Dr. Sarah Schnitker (Fuller Theological Seminary), Spirituality and Thriving: A Developmental and Personality Interdisciplinary Approach

Sponsors: This preconference is generously supported by The John Templeton Foundation and the Thrive Center at Fuller Theological Seminary
Registration: FREE! & will include light snacks and lunch, space is limited; RSVP here
Organizers: Dr. Rebekah Richert (University of California, Riverside), Dr. Chris Boyatzis (Bucknell University), Dr. Pamela Ebstyne King (Fuller Theological Seminary)
Questions: Please email Dr. Rebekah Richert (firstname.lastname@example.com)

Come & Get It Bae! Pharrell Flaunts His Style Icon Status for 'WSJ'
Photo: Wall Street Journal Magazine
They say (and we agree) that Pharrell never truly ages. Looking back in the early 90s, when his music career began, until now, you would think he had a real-life fountain of youth in his possession. And with graceful age comes graceful style. Pharrell has always stood out in the music industry not only for his lyrical and production talent, but he's also made a bold statement with his garb that can only be described as totally unexpected yet totally Pharrell. Through the years, we've seen him mesh hip hop flavor with a hippie vibe that has truly made him stand out, so much so that he's garnered a side hustle as a fashion designer and created collaborations with Adidas, Uniqlo and G-Star. But in the latest issue of the Wall Street Journal Magazine, the humbled musician, who wears a $4,100 Dior Homme jacket says he stills struggle with the idea of him being a fashion icon:
"It embarrasses me a bit to be a figure in fashion," he says. "I think everyone is interested in what they put on, even if you dress conservatively. Whatever you're trying to mask, the mask itself says something about your personality."
And if you think Pharrell had it together when he produced his infectious tune "Happy" you'd be surprised to know that he was far from it, "It took me a minute to find my purpose. I knew something was missing, and then I realized, OK, you're able to make music; now you have to inject purpose. I want to make music with something extra to it—a holistic property. I want to make it feel good. I'm not the only one doing this. Kendrick Lamar's music feels amazing. Adele's music feels amazing. Alicia [Keys]'s new album feels amazing. The distinction between sounding amazing and feeling amazing—that's the thing. People, I think, are looking for a feeling."
Despite his modesty, Pharrell has had a great impact fashion, not only in hip hop, but the music industry as a whole. Check out some of Pharrell's best style moments throughout his career and we're sure you'll agree.
