Father's house. His soul is made the habitation of God: "old things pass away, behold, all things are become new;" now the man loves holiness, whereas previously he hated it; loves and enjoys communion, whereas formerly he despised it. Indeed the man, the instant he receives the truth as it is in Jesus, by its power becomes a missionary. "Come," said the poor woman, " and see a man who told me all things that ever I did." He feels such a virtue in the excellency of the Gospel, that like Melancthon, it appears so plain to him, that he wonders now every one does not see with him: and as Melancthon, when he went to his father, supposed his father would instantly yield to those bright, glorious displays which he was capable of making of the excellences of the knowledge of Jesus Christ his Lord. O blessed power, O excellent change, which is thus accomplished in this manner!
In concluding this subject, let me just advert to a class of persons who are doubtless within the house of prayer this morning, I mean those that have never received the Gospel. Sinners, has the Gospel been a treasure to you? Do you esteem it precious? If you do not, suffer me to tell you you must perish without it. It is such a treasure, that if a man has it not he dies miserable and poor, and destitute of all enjoyment from God. There was one man whom our Lord tells us was rich in this world, but he was not rich towards God; and the strongest expression of anger that ever issued from the Saviour's lips is perhaps against that individual; " Thou fool, this night shalt thy soul be required of thee; then whose are those things which thou hast prepared?" This individual, whom all the world accounted wise, because he had been enabled, by attention to his concerns and to his business, to pull down his barns and to build greater, all the world approved of it; but our Lord says, "Thou fool." Though you may be in business, you may be increasing in wealth, you may be accumulating honours, and you may have the approbation of parents, and friends, and relations, and kindreds, and those who are accounted the wise men of this world; but, if you have no estimation for the Gospel, if you have never yet valued the Gospel of Christ and received it by faith, let me tell you you are still a poor, miserable, wretched being, and when you come to die, will not have a hope of another world, nor a blessing when you enter it.
May I not also say to those who have received the Gospel; see the spirit which you should entertain towards the ministers of Jesus Christ. He has greatly condescended to you in this method of mercy, dear hearers. He does not speak to you from Sinai, as he did once to Israel: there is no thunder pealing this morning; no lightning flaming about this house. You are not afraid to come near to God by reason of the burning fire or the violence of the tempest; no, but he speaks to you in a voice like your own. Nor does he speak to you by angels; you would be greatly terrified if he did. An angel came with a message to John, and he fell at his feet as one dead. Then sympathize with ministers in their sufferings and temptations. I assure you, dear brethren, that the way to profit under the ministry of the ministers of Christ, is not to quarrel about their sermons; not to complain of their false cadences; not to pick to pieces those portions of truth which they deliver to you in plainness and simplicity; but if those who hear me this day would make it a responsible duty ere they entered this and other houses of prayer to go and fall before God in private, and cry for divine influence to be put into the earther
vessels, they would oftener retire to their houses blessing God for what they had heard, and rejoicing in the glad sound of the voice of truth.
Let me also say, here is instruction to ministers as well as the people. Should there be any here this morning who are exercising the ministry, or preparing for it, let us learn, dear brethren, what we are. If we had ever a sense of this, we should preach better, we should melt over souls more, we should feel the value of the Gospel more ourselves, and be more in earnest to communicate it to others. When God was sending Jeremiah on an embassage of importance to the people, he bad him go down to the potter's house first, and at the potter's house he was to hear the word from God, and carry this message away to the people. Let us often go down to the potter's house; let us see what we are made of; let us see how God has honoured us. We are not to be earthly, though earthen vessels, but we are to be clean; purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel fit for the Master's use. Let us therefore labour, lest a clod of clay or an accident take us away. We are but the earthen vessels; we have but a very short time to work: may God grant that the spirit of a Whitfield, and the spirit of others who laboured for his cause, may so possess our breast, that finding ourselves but earthen vessels we may communicate the precious treasure as long as God shall spare us!

I rejoice, my brethren, that one great desire of the Countess of Huntingdon when she took this chapel was, that the Gospel of Christ might be preached in the world. Her earnest desire was, that from the state of the world when this chapel was built, sinners might be converted through the dissemination of this treasure, by means of the ministers of Jesus Christ. Perhaps I cannot do better to impress on your minds the real state of the world at this period, than to read an extract from the life of Howell Harriss, Esq., an eminent minister of Christ in Wales. "There being at that time a general slumber over the land; generally people spent the Lord's day contrary to the laws of God and man, it being by none rightly observed; neither had any whom I knew a true knowledge of that God whom they pretended to worship: no sooner was the worship over than the conduct of the people discovered, that the heart was entirely alienated from all that was good: the remaining part of the day was spent in indulging in the prevailing corruptions of nature, all worship being laid aside, except among some of the Dissenters, while an universal deluge of swearing, lying, revenge, drunkenness, fighting, and gaming, had overspread the country like a mighty torrent, without any notice taken of it, or a stop, as far as I have seen, having being attempted to be put to it." It was in this state of things that the Countess of Huntingdon opened her house in Park Street, the drawing-room for the nobility, and the kitchen for the poorer class of hearers; and there Romaine and others used to testify the Gospel of the grace of God to as many as the room would hold. She was earnestly desirous of training individuals for Christ's service. When she obtained this chapel, she hoped that as a peeress of the realm she was entitled to have individuals who were educated in the establishment as her chaplains, and might use these places of worship, as places connected with the establishment: that, however, was not allowed. When she found this to be the case, her heart, burning with holy desire to spread this treasure among the sons of men, she was not to be baffled, and therefore established a college at Trevecca, for the training up and fitting of young men for the great work of the ministry; and every where, and
especially in places where sickness reigned, watering places, where fashionable vices often abounded, she attempted to plant houses of prayer, and placed ministers of Christ within them, and gathered souls to Jesus Christ.
And if my young friends, who may be looking back to the history of this time, just observe the season when this chapel was first given up in 1779 to the Countess, they will find that at that time very few places of worship in which the Gospel was preached were any where to be found around this neighbourhood. A dear and valuable friend, one of my own congregation, when this place was a tea house, and had been shut up because the figure of fame on the top, which had a trumpet, did not blow loud enough to procure votaries to fill the place, and fill the proprietor's pockets, when this place was shut up he passed by, in a state he tells me of which he was afterwards ashamed to mention or have known; and seeing a board on the outside, "This place to let," it struck him he might make a favourable speculation, and he instantly went to the proprietor and took the place. He had it on his hands twelve months before he knew what to do with it; and then two clergymen of the establishment applied to him to convert it into a place of worship. From that time the Gospel has been preached here with remarkable success. Perhaps in all the churches in the neighbourhood around, if the history of the conversion of individuals could be discovered, it would be found that many a bird has been fledged here, and as soon as it was fledged has gone and settled down in other chapels round the neighbourhood. Many of the ministers of the Gospel beneath that gallery have been educated for the ministry. There Mr. Cooper of Dublin, there Mr. Douglas of Reading, and there numbers of individuals first opened their lips to preach the Gospel of Christ at the prayer meetings. And while I think of these things, my heart gladdens within me. Then people were not quite as fastidious as they are now. At six in the morning you would see places of worship like these, during Mr. Whitfield's time, crowded with hearers coming to worship the Lamb. Here, too, many of the ministers of the establishment have found an asylum when shut out of other places. Here they have come to preach the Gospel; here Mr. Wills, Mr. Glasscock, the Hon. Mr. Shirley, and many other individuals, proclaimed the Gospel of Christ when other doors were shut against them.
I consider that this place of worship has been most eminently blessed of God, by the introduction of his truth into the Metropolis with almighty power and divine favour. I therefore have this morning to ask you to contribute of your ability to the expenses of this place, incurred by the cleansing and painting. I trust that you will aid your gifts as you pass by with your prayers, that still the light of truth may shine, that still the power of the Gospel may be felt here, and that multitudes may be drawn after the word of life of such as shalt be saved. God grant this for Christ's sake.
"For we are labourers together with God."-1 CORINTHIANS, iii. 9.
Ir is necessary that we should briefly notice the painful circumstances which led the apostle to explain so minutely as he does in the connexion of the text, the nature of the work in which he and his fellow-labourers were engaged, and the relation in which they stood to each other and to God. It appears, that many in the church at Corinth were divided in the estimate which they formed of the ministers who had laboured successfully amongst them; and in contending with each other, the respective parties exclaimed, "I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ." Whether their predilections were founded on the peculiar excellences of the different preachers, or on less honourable grounds, it is evident that the partisans had imbibed an unchristian spirit, and were sacrificing the peace of the church, if not the fundamental doctrines of the Gospel, at the shrine of a worldly and carnal wisdom. "For whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?"
The apostle of the Gentiles, therefore, judged it necessary to remind them, that ministers, whatever may be the talents and gifts with which they are intrusted, are the servants of Christ, and under the most solemn obligations to labour for his glory and the profit of his church. "Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believe, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one; and every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour. For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building."
Although our text may be translated, "For we are labourers together of God," still the connexion shews, that the apostle considered himself and his fellowlabourers as having the presence and co-operation of God. They planted and watered; God gave the increase. They "went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following."
Let no one imagine, that when we speak of being "fellow-labourers together with God," we assume the same rank of agency with him, or any independence of him. Our talents, our means, and our usefulness, are all from On behalf of the Baptist College, at Stepney.
him. As Paul has said in another place, "Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think (to reckon or calculate on) any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God." Still, it is equally evident, that while we are labouring together in the Gospel-field, God is with us, working all things after the counsel of his own will."
First, then, let us consider WHAT THE WORK INCLUDES, in which God and his people are labourers together.
It is not in every work of God that we are labourers together with him. In executing many of his works, it may be truly said, "Of the people there were none with him." Neither do we suppose that the hand of God is with us in every thing we do. Our errors and depravity give rise to many actions which it would be the height of impiety to suppose that the Holy One of Israel
But your attention will be directed to a course of operations which God has appointed for the execution of his purposes of mercy towards the children of men. This will include,
First, the spread of the Gospel through the world.
There are many passages in the Holy Scriptures, which prove that it is the design of God to extend the Gospel to every nation. I need not bring forward many to establish this, yet one may be necessary to shew the connexion between this fact and the point before us: "And the Lord said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." It is evident from this passage, that the Gospel is to be made known amongst all the nations, and that by the union of divine and human agency. The Lord, in extending the glad tidings of salvation through the world, could have employed angels, or he could have revealed the truth by his Spirit to as many as were ordained to eternal life; but, in the exercise of sovereignty, he has committed to his servants on earth, the work of proclaiming to their fellow-men the doctrines of the cross. "When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men-and he gave some apostles, and some prophets, and some evangelists, and some pastors ana teachers."
The apostles have no successors in their office. The divine origin of the Gospel being fully attested by the miracles which these inspired men wrought in the name of their ascended Lord, it was not necessary that such an order of agents should be employed in its further promulgation through the world, and, for the same reason, miraculous gifts were no longer necessary. Men of ordinary talents, and endued with the ordinary gifts of the Holy Spirit, are competent to spread the Gospel amongst all nations. Hence we find, that immediately after the days of the apostles, the pastors (who are also called elders, presbyters, and bishops) were on an equality in the church. They were, however, assisted in their work by evangelists and teachers, the whole church also co-operating as circumstances required with the pastors and their assistants for the "furtherance of the Gospel." In consequence of their united and strenuous labours, the Gospel, in a short period, spread over Asia Minor, through the northern parts of Africa, and the greater portion of Europe. And let it be remembered, that these men were not the servants of Cæsar, nor

Hello, I was just diagnosed with MS 2 weeks ago and I have since started taking tecfidera. Is anyone else taking it or have you taken it? I was supposed to start the higher dose today but I'm afraid to because part of me feels like my brain is in a fog and I don't want it to get worse. I'm afraid of getting PML. I just don't know what to do!

Good advisor
My doctor was contemplating that drug, but ultimately we went with gilenya because he said it has shown to lower relapse rates more than tecfidera... however, I would love to know how you are doing with it...
I had brain fog for a while but it comes and goes with RRMS.
What is the main issues you experiencing with MS currently?
Also this article may be of a good read for you. It talks about tecfidera and gilenya studies: https://multiplesclerosisnewstoday.com/2018/08/30/tecfidera-gilenya-equally-effective-but-more-ms-patients-stop-tecfidera-study/
My doctor didn't recommend anything else but Tecfidera, it's the first medicine I have been on for MS but I have thought about looking into other meds just to see what my options are and what other people are saying about them. I don't like that it can cause PML..that is scary! My doctor said its very rare but still there have been cases of people who have died from it!
My current issue is just heaviness in my legs on and off. A month ago I could hardly walk and after already being cleared for MS just 2 weeks prior because there weren't lesions in the part of my brain they normally would be in for MS patients my doctor told me I needed an MRI of my neck to look at my spine and come to find out there are 2 inactive lesions at the top of my spine in my neck. I was on the steriod pack to help my legs and it worked! Thank God I had the MRI of my neck because we all just assumed it was an issues with my back causing my problems!
As for the Tecfidera I haven't had serious side effects from it like I could have. The first day I took it I became really flushed and it lasted for about 40 minutes or so and that's it. No digestive issues and no nausea!! I am just afraid to double the dose because I've read thats where people start to experience the side effects. I'd hate to switch medicines since I'm doing so well with it but I cant help but to worry about PML!
Good advisor
@Hgood623 I was allergic to it, even though it was supposed to be a rarity. Well it happened to me. So I can't really offer any helpful insight on it and currently on Rebif injections.

Just trying to get by..
I've been on Tecfidera 240 mg for MS for over two years with no side effects or other issues. I had tried the transfusions and injections with side effects.
I have been taking Tecfidera for 5 yrs. I still get flushing sometimes. Feels like a sunburn on my face and chest for a while but not bad.
See the signature
@Hgood623 I have been taking Tecfidera for over a year. I was on Rebif. It has been wonderful for me. No side effects. I have had brain fog from just having MS period. It has helped me all the way around. It is the best drug I have ever been on. I can't say enough good. But that is just my opinion others may feel differently. I hope you get better.

Movement to Divest from Fossil Fuels Gaining Strength
Two recent events signify how the movement to withdraw investments from fossil fuels is gaining momentum. On Sunday February 23, the congregation at Trinity-St. Paul's United Church in Toronto voted unanimously to ensure that none of its funds are invested in any of the world's 200 largest fossil fuel corporations. Then, on Saturday March 1, Greening Sacred Spaces and the Green Awakening Network hosted a forum on Divestment or What? Economic Tools for Creation Advocacy in a Time of Crisis.
As Jeanne Moffat, speaking on behalf of the Climate Justice Group at Trinity-St. Paul's, said "For too many years governments have not dealt decisively with the impending climate chaos, largely to the peril of low- income countries and low-lying regions of the world." While this is the first example in Canada of a church deciding to divest, the climate advocacy group 350.org lists 19 religious institutions, nine post-secondary institutions, 22 municipalities, 2 counties, and 17 foundations in the U.S. as having made this commitment.

UN Climate Talks Move Backwards: Developed States Refuse Meaningful Action
On July 27, the first-ever KAIROS and OteshaNation to Nation Bike Tour gets underway! Twelve Indigenous and non-Indigenous youth will start in Akwesasne and end in Tyendinaga; these are Kanien'kehaka (Mohawk) communities that share the waters of the St Lawrence and Lake Ontario. In between, the cyclists will be hosted by non-Indigenous communities and groups.
The participants will be learning and sharing as they go, offering a new version of the Blanket Exercise in the communities they visit. There's more information available on the KAIROS site. All events are currently posted to the KAIROS calendar and we'll be adding more information as specifics are confirmed. Nation to Nation Bike Tour events posted to this calendar are open to all.
After four days of programming in Akwesasne, the tour gets underway on July 31st with smudging, Mohawk prayer and opening address, words from Grand Chief Mike Mitchell, and songs from the A'nowarakowa Arena youth group singers. Local media will be present. Many thanks to Akwesasne radio CKON-FM 97.3 for an excellent interview on the bike tour!
In the words of the Akwesasne planners, " This is an important event as it acknowledges a new friendship that was created and teachings shared between Mohawk members of the community and the KAIROS youth group. Community support will be present to meet, give thanks and to help support the visitors' journey."
In turn, the KAIROS community would like to say nia:wen, thank you, to the Akwesasne community for their gift of starting the group's time together in this good way. The community and the people are showing enormous generosity to the riders and KAIROS, as ceremonies, teachings and hosting are all shared. We also offer thanks to Tyendinaga for hosting the end of the tour. Without these good words and actions, we could not continue KAIROS' commitment to a new relationship built on justice and respect.
KAIROS' gratitude also goes to the church communities who will also host the bikers. There are Lutheran, United and Presbyterian churches along the way who are hosting and caring for the riders. Thank you! We'll update information about all the generous hosts as it's confirmed.
And of course, the people who have offered donations to help cover the riders' expenses are also very much a part of this work. Any amount helps and you can still donate!

Honor Flight a success for 97-year-old Harry Jankelle
Congratulations go out this morning to 97-year-old Harry Jankelle who Sunday completed an 18-hour trip to Washington, D.C. and back with Honor Flight New England.
Jankelle, a proud WWII veteran, formerly of Randolph and Quincy, lives now at NewBridge on the Charles in Dedham, in the long-term care health center, with his wife Jenny.
Their granddaughter, Rebecca Salant of New York, accompanied him on the flight as his guardian.
It is an amazing accomplishment at his age to undertake such an adventure, and his daughter, Deborah Salant said beforehand, "We all have our fingers crossed. It is what he wants to do." She had found out about the Honor Flights last year.
The staff on Household 2 North at NewBridge, along with the social worker Amanda Osgood, worked hard to make this happen. One of the certified nursing assistants, Brendalyn Walters, came in during the middle of the night especially to help Harry get up and be ready to go by about 5 a.m.
He and Rebecca had to drive to the airport at Manchester, N.H. to catch the flight to Washington along with some 60 other veterans.
We'll have more of report after today's celebration for Harry Jankelle at the Hebrew SeniorLife residence.

bob the drag queen net worth
- 59 Views
- Vinay Kumar
- April 4, 2021

Bob the drag queen net worth is the net worth of the top-ranked drag queen from every major drag queen pageant in the country. This list is updated daily and includes the top-ranked drag queens from each of the three major drag queen organizations: the National Drag Association, the World Drag Association, and the International Drag Association.
Bob the other drag queen is a high-profile drag queen who's taken over the drag queens' main drag for a short time by the same drag queen who's taken over the main drag of the American Drag Queen Association.
The World and the International Drag Associations are probably the two largest drag organizations in the world. The World Drag Association has over 14,000 drag queens and covers the entire world. The International Drag Association is an even larger organization with over 100,000 drag queens who cover the USA.
Bob's new Twitter account makes it clear that he's not a drag queen anymore, although he is. He's still very much "real" and "good" at Twitter, and when he starts tweeting about the world or the world in general, it doesn't seem that much different than when he started tweeting about the world at the beginning of the game. We have a very good reason for this, as it's the way we get people to "like" us.
In the case of bob, hes a man with multiple sides to him. He's a man who wants to help people, who wants to be able to help others, who wants to be in the streets without being arrested for being in the street, and who wants to be able to help make the world a better place. So why is he so very different? Because he's a man who has lived in a world that doesn't serve people like him.
bob is a drag queen, but hes not a drag queen like other drag queens. A drag queen is a performer who dresses in drag; bob is more of a dancer, but hes not a dancer like normal people, but hes more of a performer who dresses in drag. Basically he's kinda like a drag queen of the streets.
As it turns out, this drag queen is not a drag queen at all! He has a bit of a criminal past, but that is not his only crime. Bob is a drag queen like any other. He is a man who has had a life as a street performer, but he has also been a successful businessman. He owns one of the biggest record labels in hip hop, but hes not a hip hop artist.
In this case, that means that he is not a rapper (he is a street performer). But he is a businessman. And if that is a crime I can see some of you being a bit worried about it. But if you think about it, that means he is also not a drag queen like the rest of us. He is a business owner with criminal pasts.
It seems like the last time I saw Bob was at a party in a gay bar, where he was being a bit rude to everyone. So I'm not sure if I should worry about this or feel a bit sorry for him, because I think he deserves it.

Businesses today are able to outsource nearly any task, including bookkeeping. Outsourcing is a great way for small businesses to save money and focus on their core competencies.
The question of whether outsourcing bookkeeping services help small business owners is not easy to answer. The truth is, that this depends on many factors. The main one is how complicated your accounting system already is. If you are just starting out in the corporate world, then outsourcing might be a great way to get started when it comes to your business Save Money. How? let's explore.
With smart bookkeeping, small businesses can save finances
The true value of outsourcing accounting is the reduction in costs. When you outsource your financials, not only are you saving money by eliminating payroll taxes and paid leave but also benefits that come with employees like health care premiums for themselves or their dependents – all at once! The best part? You're paying less because when an expense happens it'll be taken care of automatically rather than having to foot that bill yourself every month (and then adding on top whatever amount gets charged).
Less time will be wasted on paperwork and calculations
What is the point of wasting time doing something when we can outsource it and use that same energy for what matters? You use your time and energy to do accounting, but then it takes up all of this precious free space in the day. You could be putting that toward something more important for your small business! Hiring an accountant not only saves you from having those repetitive tasks done over again at a later date – which would eat into precious hours each month- they also give instant feedback as well as checklists so there are no surprises when taxes come around or if invoices need attention fast because deadlines loom ahead.
Experts will handle your accounts
Hiring an accounting firm is like hiring a team of professionals to help with your business. The best part? They do it all! You won't have any worries about getting audits or tax returns done because they know what's up down every alleyway in this game called finance – just give them the key tasks and watch as everything falls into place without much effort on yours. If there ever comes a time when one person can no longer meet these deadlines, another member will step up their game; giving you peace of mind knowing someone else has got this handled until things return back.
Latest and efficient accounting tools can minimize possible mistakes
Technology is always changing, and it's important that your business stays ahead of the competition by being able to use today's latest tools. A leading accounting firm will have access not just for themselves but also at their clients' beckoning call – ensuring they can provide them with all-inclusive services from bookkeeping through tax planning advice. This way you know exactly where things stand financially which leads to staying one step away from potential problems down the line as well.
Small businesses can do Daily finance Monitoring
When you need to access your company's daily financials, an outsourced accounting firm will be there for the long haul. Most of these firms offer dedicated teams so they can give deep insights into how things are going in any given day or hour-long period throughout their reporting cycle – this way businesses stay ahead of competitors with accurate data on hand at all times! Hiring an outside party like this allows them not just when it comes time crunching numbers but also provides accountability through regular checkups too; without someone keeping close tabs over what is happening within each sector, there would likely be errors that wouldn't show up until much later than necessary if ever because little warning signs may go unnoticed.
Outsourcing bookkeeping can help you focus on your strength and grow your business. It is a great way to save money, but it will depend on the specific needs of your small business. Have you outsourced any aspects of bookkeeping or accounting so that you could spend more time focusing on what matters most? Let SSS Bookkeeping know if we can be of assistance in helping identify ways for your company to make smart decisions about where best to invest time and resources.

Boogie Board Vs Rocketbook
Rocketbooks are compatible with both Android devices and iOS devices. In addition, it comes with an app that allows you to scan pages. These pages can then saved in a variety formats, including PDF and JPG. You can even scan pages directly into Evernote and other apps. Before you start scanning pages, you should clean your Rocketbook with a wet cloth or tissue. Before you move on to the next page, let it dry completely.
When it comes to size, the Rocketbook Flip comes in letter and executive sizes. The executive model is a little larger than A5 but still fits in your hand. The mini model is about the same size as an A4. It has a binding that's above the pages, which prevents interference when you're writing or browsing. These notebooks are easy to use and carry. The pages are white and have a standard bleed pattern, making them ideal for quick sketches and lists.
The Rocketbook also has a unique feature: you can download paper from the company without purchasing it. These papers cannot be erased. However, the device can be wiped clean after you've finished using it. They are a great alternative for stacks of class notebooks. This unique feature will cost you a little more. And because of the Rocketbook's cost, you may want to consider another device in the meantime.
Rocketbook Wave is a notebook similar to a traditional notebook. The paper is specialized and can easily be erased with a microwave. This way, you can reuse the notebook and continue to use it for other purposes. The Rocketbook System comes with a mobile app. The app uses patented image capture technology to scan pages and send them to cloud services. You can also share notes with other people using popular cloud apps.
The Rocketbook Wave and the Everlast are two different types. The former can be wiped off with a damp cloth, while the latter requires a Frixion pen to use on its surface. As long as you have a pen with this special ink, you can reuse the notebook as many times as you need. The Everlast is an excellent notebook for everyday use. For writing notes on the Rocketbook Everlast, you can also re-use it as much as you want.
The Rocketbook has its flaws. Its sensitivity may limit it for some users, but it's easy to use. There are many ways to customize it and use it in different situations. You can use it as a traditional notebook or as an educational tool. And you can even use it with Think Board X. The Rocketbook Beacon may be the right product if you don't like the idea or feel comfortable with a traditional notebook.
While the erasable notebook has a long list of advantages, the Rocketbook app is still the best option. It can save your notes to a variety of cloud-based locations including Evernote or Google Drive. The Rocketbook app also lets you customize your icons and save your notes in a variety of cloud-based locations. It's easy to store notes on this smart notebook. You can also erase notes using a microwave oven.
The notebook comes with a microfiber cloth. It can be used to write any thing, even jotting down thoughts. You don't have to worry about spills. It won't matter if you spill coffee on your Rocketbook. The included microfiber cloth can be used to wipe it off. But if you don't want to use the notebook, you can even keep your Rocketbook as a notebook for all your notes.
While the paper is better for writing on an iPad or tablet than on a regular notebook, it's far from perfect. Writing on the Rocketbook is 90% better than writing on regular notebook paper. The Rocketbook does have 3 major drawbacks. The Rocketbook's pen isn't as dark as a premium pen. You might not be able to use it with a stylus. If you own an iPhone or iPad and need a notebook to write in, a traditional notebook is better.

Doing surveys and researches are professional tasks. People chalk out the draft and indulge themselves in the collection of data and information on the selected topics. It requires a lot of effort to research a particular topic and go into the depth of it. Digging deeper into the topic from every aspect, observing the situation and giving suggestions to give the topic a new direction.
This many efforts is invested in doing research work. So, a research paper is defined as a piece of academic writing that provides analysis, interpretation and argument based on in-depth independent research. Research papers are almost similar to academic essays but are usually longer and more detailed assignments designed to assess not only writing skills but also your skills in scholarly research.
Writing a research paper requires immense knowledge of the topic, engage in a variety of sources related to the topic and to make an original contribution to the provided topic. It is an academic work, which can be allotted to higher secondary level to a professional level. For professional education, research papers are extremely important because it involves in detail information about the content selected. It gives a new individual perspective to the researcher's idea of the topic, away from the bookish knowledge and points of view.
But writing a research paper is difficult. Amidst all the hectic schedule of survey, experiments, data, observation and report, jotting down the work on paper is a tough task too. Usually, the researchers do not get much time to write down the research paper properly following the outline and system. Such professional researchers take help from writing websites and lessen their burden. They ask for help from the experts, hand over the data to the writers and let them add stars to your research paper.
Urgenthomework.com provide the best online writing services to the surveyors, who gather the first-hand information and create research papers that are their own work. The outline and format are given by the content writers. They give a framework to the research paper which beautifies the research work.
Our website provides a very detailed sort of work to the users. Certain steps are followed to bring perfection to the research paper.
Read the given task carefully and clarifies the basic concepts from your guide or more knowledgeable person who has more knowledge than you. Identify the goals, deadlines, length specifications, formatting and submission method. Make bulleted lists for key points for easier to present it. The outline gives a clearer idea of executing the content of the paper.
Brainstorm, go thoroughly through books, use freewriting, go through relevant research subject papers. Usually, an authentic set of information is recommended to add to the research paper. But the outline can always be surfed from internet. Aim for ideas that are original and specific, in detailed with varieties of perspectives. It is important to choose the right topic for the research. Topics that demands to addressed and requires some eyes on it.
Use all various books, journal, reliable web sites, previous work done by great researchers before on the same topic, so that the writer does not miss anything glaring. Warm-up before diving into the fair work of research. There is always a need for preparation or previous knowledge on the topic. It makes the job easier, and there is no confusion regarding the content because there are already papers readily available for references.
A thesis statement is a statement of central argument to establish the purpose and position of the paper. This statement should be precise, concise, contentious and coherent. This will serve as a guide throughout the writing process. The objectives of the research paper should be meaningful and transparent because the statement of the paper revolves around the purpose of throwing light on it.
This has a list of key topics, arguments and evidence to include and divide into rough sections with headings. An outline or plan is essential because it gives a clearer way to write the paper. There are different paragraphs, headings and sub-headings, introduction, body and conclusion that give shape to the writing. A flowchart that covers all the step is mandatory in research paper writing.
Write whatever gets into your mind and refine it later, pay attention to organization and logical ordering and express your ideas clearly. Free ideas from free mind can create wonders, but usually many writers hesitate to create such pieces of work because of the fear of faulty method and format. But what comes first is always unfiltered and accurate, so a draft of the research paper should be first created and fixed later on.
Start with keeping in front of the three questions concerning the research paper: what, how and why. Introduction is the foundation of any research paper, it gives a distilled idea of the selected topic and portrays a brief idea of what is the topic, how did the topic got deduced and why did this particular topic was selected. Introduction gives the gist of the writing; the readers get a clearer idea of what does the next paragraphs tell about the paper.
The information provided should be apt and well conveyed. The whole body should be divided into a number of paragraphs for providing all information well. Body is the main part of the writing. It elaborates the ideas, objectives and significance of the topic. It covers all of the parts and segments that should be included in the research paper. Starting from the objectives, to situations, experiments, surveys, observations, findings, and suggestions, everything comes under the body. So it has to be well designed to get the best out of the topic selected.
So, finally, the paper's argument should be given a sense of finality. Emphasizing the thesis statement is the former motive. Do not provide new arguments and do not use stock phrases. The conclusion should give justice to the thesis arguments. It gives a smooth ending to the paper by giving a strong point of view or perspective to the argument that went on through the paper. Conclusion is also considered an important part of the thesis writing because the concluding paragraph should be powerful enough to impart a new direction to the topic.
The paper should answer the assignments or justifying the objectives of the research paper. Identify any assumptions that might require justification for keeping reader's perspective as your foremost concern. Rearrangement of necessary ideas, views and section, changing the direction of the paper if necessary, also correcting the blunders that include grammatical errors and faulty calculations. Editing and proofreading is the method to finalize the draft.
Because, research papers are completely professional papers that is read and referred by students and other highly professional researches, so it is the responsibility of the writers to check and recheck the draft to ensure that the paper is free of controversial statements, ambiguous perspectives, faulty grammar and vocabulary, incorrect categorization of the paragraphs, wrong information, wrong calculations, numbers and stats and haphazard ordering of the procedure. All these keywords should be kept in mind while jotting the final draft.
This is primary for proofreading purpose to ensure you have completed all necessary tasks, and the purpose of the topic is justified. Revision is important to understand the reader's point of view. The people who read the paper should understand the intentions of the researchers. Revision is, no doubt, the last but the most powerful step of writing a research paper by Urgenthomework.com. It decides the ultimate effectiveness of the paper and gives satisfaction to eyes of the researchers.

I'm sitting in my living room flipping a coin, trying to see if my old math teachers who taught me probability and statistics were right. Because, if I'm to believe Maryland State Police, my math profs didn't know their subject from a hole in the ground.
As I flip the coin, math profs say, I'm supposed to get heads or tails in almost equal numbers as I increase the number of tosses. That's the law of averages, the law of probability.
Maryland State Police have never studied this law. Back in May, The Sun published an Associated Press story by writer Michael Schneider that reported that, in the first nine months of 1995, the state police's Special Traffic Interdiction Force -- an anti-drug unit -- stopped 145 cars along Interstate 95 between Delaware and Baltimore County. Some 110 of those drivers were black. That's all a coincidence, state police say. An accident. Chance.
STIF is the acronym for the Special Traffic Interdiction Force. It's an appropriate one, because state police are trying to stiff the people of Maryland on this issue. As if we don't know something egregious is going on here. As if we don't know any math.
But we know division and percentages. And 110 of 145 cars stopped amounts to nearly 76 percent. And some of us know enough probability and statistics to know that if police are being fair, they would stop black drivers at such a rate only if 75 percent of the drivers traveling along that stretch of I-95 were black. But we all know that's absurd. It's so absurd, in fact, that the situation actually got the Maryland AC-To-Hell-With-You to stick its nose into a genuine civil liberties matter.
It's also ludicrous to conclude that blacks proportionately have more equipment violations or traffic violations than whites. Three years ago, before I started driving, I may have been sappy enough to believe that excuse. But I know whites drive with just as much a passion for lunacy as blacks. Tailgating, speeding and changing lanes without signaling are not the "black thing you wouldn't understand" we've read about on the popular T-shirt. They are a multiracial thing.
So, if state police are right, the laws of averages and probabilities must have drastically changed since I was in school. So I'm flipping the coin -- assuming, though it's not valid, that fifty percent of the drivers along that stretch of I-95 are black -- and come up with 56 tails and 44 heads in my first 100 tosses.
The percentage in my experiment still seems well below the 75 percent rate of STIF troopers stopping black drivers. There's nothing racial about it, state police say. Lord knows, I'd hate to make race an issue. The charge of racism has been overworked enough as it is, cropping up in situations where it has no validity. Cries of white racism have all too frequently taken on the tone of crying wolf.
But, as the boy learned in the famous story, sometimes the wolf will really appear. So I'm flipping the coin for another 100 tosses, trying to square the laws of averages and probability with the state police claim that 75 percent of the drivers they stop in a nine-month period can be black and that there is no racial basis for it.
Couldn't there be?, I'm thinking as I flip the coin. Six white troopers are in the STIF unit, the AP article says. I know nothing about them. I'd hate to pin the racist label on them. They're all probably hard-working troopers dedicated to protecting the citizens of Maryland, as all state police are.
But couldn't there be a racist stereotype or two lurking in their subconscious? One like, say, black car driver equals black drug dealer? Because if there was, that wouldn't make the STIF troopers evil racists, simply the byproducts of a society that conditioned them to be that way.
It's happened to us menfolk with that sexism thing. Many of us remember the riddle of the man and his son who are in a car accident. The man is killed, the son taken to surgery, where the surgeon says "I can't operate on this child. He's my son." Only sexist conditioning prevented us from identifying the surgeon as the boy's mother, our feelings about equal rights for women notwithstanding.
Has white racism made white Americans subject to such conditioning? Of course it has. How could they escape it? If men told women they had no sexist attitudes, that they've never had any and that we are insulted women would think that we did, why, the fairer sex would look at us as though we've just ingested large amounts of a controlled dangerous substance.
Not so with with the disease of racism. Whites claim they're cured of it, blacks claim they can't even get it. A Lebanese Arab asked me in London if American race relations were still bad.
"We've gone from really looney to just plain looney," I answered. Only now, everyone wants in on the looniness.
Seventy-five percent of drivers stopped in a nine-month period are black. That's outrageous. State police denying even a subtle, subconscious racism may be involved is a symptom of the looniness. Simple logic suggests otherwise.
As does my coin tossing. The final tally: 101 tails, 99 heads. Looks like these math guys may have had something after all.

As the cloud becomes a realistic hosting destination and technology solution for more and more organizations, it is becoming obvious that a black-and-white switch to the cloud is unlikely to happen in most real-world scenarios. This is especially true when an organization's IT footprint is large, complex, regulated, and/or highly secured.
Business analytics faces a similar prospect, with many large enterprise-sized BI deployments remaining on-premises, even with the advent of 'cloud-first' (or 'cloud-only') analytics offerings from companies like Microsoft, SAP, Looker, and Qlik, to name a few. In many cases, larger companies are exploring the cloud option for analytics. Still, they are daunted by the prospect of moving their entire data operation to the cloud—and the idea is often killed off soon.
In other cases, the cloud option is used for limited scenarios where the data can be comfortably hydrated from an on-premises location to the cloud. But copying the data to the cloud—'data shipping'—comes with its own challenges. It can be counter-productive, offsetting cloud efficiencies while introducing a new chore: keeping the cloud data fresh, hydrated, and accurate. Any hope of achieving tight data governance is challenged by data shipping (duplicates?), while the timeliness of any analyses against the data suffers.
So, it stands to reason that organizations and CDOs are interested in the "hybrid" option—where they get to run cloud-based analytics without the 'data shipping' headache. To this, most companies have so far offered the dreaded private network solution (i.e., VPN) or some other method for securing a channel between the cloud and the on-premises data source. ('On-premises' should be expanded to 'remote data', covering any data source not local to the cloud implementation.)
Apart from the infrastructural mess required to get a single secure channel in place, it becomes a logistical nightmare to expand the footprint to multiple sources. And that does not even include the additional administrative effort required to monitor the framework or any related authentication mechanisms needed in the chain.
And we have yet to address performance! Running direct queries against a remote data source over VPN is horrifically slow because technologies like JDBC and ODBC were not designed for long-distance communications. And the bigger the load, the worse the outcome—which seems to contradict the high-scalability promise of the cloud.
No wonder no one is fully committed to the cloud.
To solve the puzzle, Pyramid has released its Pulse Server application. Designed as a lightweight, on-premises server 'spoke' that works with a cloud-hosted Pyramid Application 'hub'. It offers a variety of breakthroughs in the hybrid deployment of business analytics that make it a compelling choice for the job:
It goes without saying that Pulse supports all the SQL-based direct querying data sources supported by the main Pyramid application out of the box—making it compatible with the top data stacks in the market today. And best of all, Pulse is free with Pyramid Enterprise.
Perhaps a hybrid cloud deployment for data analytics is a good idea, after all.

I Knew It Was Going To Be Bad When The Cow Fell Into A Birch
I knew it was going to be a bad day when the cow fell into a birch. I'd read about it on the news, but the whole story had me in stitches. The cow had been hanging in a tree for a while, but I was sure he'd get out of it, and the firemen had been frantically searching for it. Then, I noticed that the firemen were carrying her down from the birch trees. The farm was full of reporters and tape recorders. The doctor had an idea for a cure, though, and she whispered in the cow's ear. The doctor's words stayed in the cows' heads, and they didn't even realize they had an idea of how to cure it.
a cow returned to his herd
When the cow fell into the herd, I knew it was going to be bad. Longhorn cattle are known to be fast runners. When the weather is bad, or the feed is low, they are full of running notions. Even during the dark moon night, they are contented and at ease. But that night? It was a bad day! The wolf returned to the herd.
A cow's signals are not always obvious, and they may be a genuine reaction to a stimulus or physical urge. Because cows form herds based on social order, they use signals to indicate their status in the herd. In the herd, conflict usually occurs between cows of similar rank. Occasionally, a cow will moo or show her reproductive hormones when she is in heat. Cows also have their own personal space, and the right to use it is often determined by the herd's hierarchy.
Did Mrs. O'Leary's cow start the Great Chicago Fire?
Does the legend of "Mrs. O'Leary's cow" really exist? The debate has raged for years, and it remains unsolved. The answer largely depends on the motive for the fire and the circumstances surrounding it. Some claim that the fire was caused by a meteor, while others point to the O'Leary family's negligence. Regardless of the reasons for the fire, the story will never be completely resolved.
The legend is largely based on an article by a former Chicago journalist, Mike Ahern. He wrote about the fire for the now-defunct Chicago Republican, but the story changed over the years. It was later put into print when the fire was commemorated by Ahern in his upcoming book, "The Great Chicago Fire: The True Story of the Great Chicago Fire"

Find Good Mid Range Mattress…The appeal of the Saatva mattress has escalated recently. Why has this taken place? In this post we will attempt to comprehend why this mattress has actually been deemed much better than the Tempurpedic mattress. Both of these bed mattress come in a wide array of various designs, which are separated by their construction. While both types of bed mattress offer excellent assistance, there are subtle differences between the two that make a distinction when choosing a mattress for your back.
The most obvious distinction in between the two is the firmness of the bed mattress. The Tempurpedic will supply more comfort since it is more firm if you tend to be on your stomach and sleep on your side. Nevertheless, if you sleep on your back and have a lot of pressure placed on your spine, the Saatva is the much better mattress because of its softer, more encouraging feel. This makes the bed mattress suitable for people who suffer from neck and back pain or spinal column conditions. Likewise, the Saatva is more resistant to irritants and therefore more comfortable for those with allergic reactions.
Another distinction between the two is the product on the mattress is made from. While many individuals believe of memory foam when they hear the term Tempurpedic, there are really numerous various versions of this mattress product.
There are numerous advantages to owning a good bed mattress such as toughness and convenience. Both Tempurpedic and Sauna offer high quality bed mattress and both utilize memory foam in their mattresses. In fact, the initial Sauna bed mattress was made from memory foam and has a credibility as being exceptionally comfy. As for the Tempurpedic brand name, it's well-known for its outstanding style and numerous customers take pleasure in the distinct styling of these bed mattress.
It all depends on how your specific back condition is and what you desire from a bed mattress. If you have back discomfort or require some type of orthopedic support in order to feel more comfortable, then a Tempurpedic bed mattress might be better matched to your requirements. Good Mid Range Mattress
All of it comes down to your specific scenario. Selecting a Tempurpedic mattress might be better if you have a particular type of back issue that requires some type of orthopedic assistance. If your back problem is less serious, then you'll probably succeed with a Sauna bed mattress. Whichever one you pick, you're sure to get an excellent night's sleep if you buy one that is right for your requirements. Good Mid Range Mattress

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of Examinations (Exams) recently issued a Risk Alert discussing observations from recent examinations on how investment advisers, registered investment companies, and hedge funds approach environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing. According to the Risk Alert, examinations will focus on:
- Portfolio management practices relating to ESG (in other words, how firms incorporate ESG factors into the investment process), and the use of ESG-related terminology;
- Due diligence and other processes for selecting, investing in, and monitoring investments based on a firm's disclosed approach to ESG investing;
- The extent to which proxy voting practices are consistent with ESG disclosures and marketing materials;
- Advertising and marketing claims relating to ESG; and
- The adoption and implementation of written policies and procedures, compliance oversight, and review of ESG investing practices and disclosures.
Our observations:
- Definition around what ESG means is critical. The Risk Alert makes clear that the SEC staff's ESG focus is motivated not only by the rapid growth in investor demand and increasing numbers of ESG products and strategies, but by the potential for confusion (particularly for retail investors) resulting from the lack of ESG definition standards. This makes it increasingly important for firms to "clearly and consistently" explain how they define ESG and use ESG-related terms – i.e., how they name and describe investment objectives, and market funds and investment strategies. Firms will also need to maintain records substantiating that they are implementing ESG investment processes in a manner consistent with those definitions.
- SEC examination and enforcement activity will precede rulemaking. The SEC is currently reevaluating existing guidance on public company disclosure on climate change, and will no doubt consider other ESG-related rulemaking in the future. However, Exams (and the Enforcement Division) need not wait for rulemaking. Absent specific rules around ESG, the SEC staff will focus on enforcing the more general anti-fraud principles such as Advisers Act Section 206 (fiduciary duty and the 2019 interpretation regarding standard of conduct for investment advisers) and the associated rules governing false or misleading statements to existing or prospective investors (Advisers Act Rule 206(4)-8), the advertising rule (Advisers Act Rule 206(4)-1), and the compliance rule (Advisers Act Rule 206(4)-7), among others. This means that examinations and enforcement actions for the foreseeable future will focus on the accuracy and adequacy of disclosure, the completeness of written policies and procedures relating to ESG, and the degree to which ESG practices are consistent with those disclosure and written policies and procedures. Exams will closely coordinate with Enforcement, particularly the newly created Climate and ESG Task Force, in identifying referrals from examinations for enforcement investigations.
- Consider whether the integration of ESG in the investment process is consistent with the firm's broader messaging around ESG. It is clear from the Risk Alert that the Exams staff will be evaluating a firm's practices against the full range of ESG-related communications that a firm may publish, including regulatory filings (e.g., public company filings), reports to sponsors of global ESG frameworks, general website statements, responses to DDQs, client and investor-facing materials. Firms should get ahead of this by reviewing whether ESG investment practices are consistent with their broader commitments, aspirational statements, and corporate communications. Alternatively, consider "clear and prominent" disclosures to notify clients and investors that ESG factors are considered alongside many other factors and will "not necessarily alter long-standing and seemingly contradictory investment strategies."
