From Openwaterpedia
Madagascar, officially the Republic of Madagascar (Malagasy: Repoblikan'i Madagasikara) is an island country in the Indian Ocean, off the southeastern coast of Africa. The nation comprises the island of Madagascar which is the fourth-largest island in the world, as well as numerous smaller peripheral islands.Madagascar is a biodiversity hotspot; over 90% of its wildlife is found nowhere else on Earth. The island's diverse ecosystems and unique wildlife are threatened by the encroachment of the rapidly growing human population.
Since 1992 the nation has officially been governed as a constitutional democracy from its capital at Antananarivo. However, in a popular uprising in 2009 the last elected president Marc Ravalomanana was made to resign and presidential power was transferred in March 2009 to Andry Rajoelina in a move widely viewed by the international community as a coup d'état.
In 2012, the population of Madagascar was estimated at just over 22 million, 90% of whom live on less than two dollars per day. Malagasy and French are both official languages of the state. The majority of the population adheres to traditional beliefs, Christianity, or an amalgamation of both. Ecotourism and agriculture, paired with greater investments in education, health and private enterprise, are key elements of Madagascar's development strategy.
Mozambique Channel
The Mozambique Channel is a portion of the Indian Ocean located between Madagascar and Mozambique. The channel is approximately 460 km (286 miles) across at its narrowest point between Angoche, Mozambique, and Tambohorano, Madagascar. The channel reaches a depth of 3,292 m (10,800 feet) about 230 km (143 mi) off the coast of Mozambique. A warm current flows in a southward direction in the channel, leading into the Agulhas Current off the east coast of South Africa. It is around 1000 miles (1600 km) long and the width of it varies from 250–600 miles (400–950 km). Thane Williams and Jonno Proudfoot will each attempt to simultaneously cross the Mozambique Channel from Mozambique to Madagascar in March-April 2014 in a 500 km stage swim.

Francisco Guillermo Ochoa Magaña (born 13 July 1985) is a Mexican goalkeeper who currently plays for French Ligue 1 club Ajaccio. He also plays for the Mexican national football team.
Club career[edit]
Guillermo Ochoa made his debut with Club América during the Clausura 2004 tournament against Monterrey. Ochoa quickly demonstrated his skill and talent in goal, and the young goalkeeper was thrust into the spotlight to replace injured veteran Adolfo Ríos. He would then share the starting job with Rios after he recovered from his aforementioned injury.
When the Apertura 2004 season began, Ochoa was thought to be the heir apparent to Ríos, who had retired. However, new coach Oscar Ruggeri brought new goalkeepers with him, among them Argentine Sebastián Saja. Ruggeri's stay at the club was marred by controversy and unpopular decisions. He was fired after only six games into the season and Ochoa was soon reinstated by new coach Mario Carrillo. Since then, he has started every game for Club América barring incidents involving injuries or national team duty. Under Carrillo, Ochoa won his first championship with América following the Clausura 2005 season.
Ochoa would start 2008 in great form, helping América win the InterLiga tournament with excellent performances, most notably in the group match against Monarcas Morelia, where he saved a late penalty kick, and América's 1–0 lead.
In the winter of 2010, there was much speculation by various sources in England as to where Ochoa would move to for the 2010–11 season. English newspaper Metro reported that Manchester United were keen on signing Ochoa.[3] It was also reported by The Daily Mail that Ochoa was handed a trial with Fulham.[4] This was later denied by both Fulham and América.
Guillermo Ochoa's last season with América was the Clausura 2011, which ended with a quarter-final defeat to Monarcas Morelia.[5]
2011–12 season[edit]
On 4 July 2011 Ochoa signed a three year contract, with an additional one year option,[6] with the recently promoted AC Ajaccio.[2] Ochoa played in his first two friendlies with Ajaccio against Bordeaux, losing 1–2 and against Real Sociedad, losing 0–4.
He made his official club debut on 5 August 2011 against Toulouse, losing 0–2.[7] On 18 and 21 December Ajaccio won two games in a row, with Ochoa keeping two consecutive clean-sheets, his third clean-sheet in total of the season. Ochoa also contributed in 3–0 victory against Étoile Fréjus Saint-Raphaël in the Coupe de France. On 14 January 2012 he helped Ajaccio with a 2–1 victory over Auxerre, and on 21 January he played against Valenciennes in a 2–1 victory which put Ajaccio out of the relegation zone since the start of the season. Ajaccio won its sixth game with Ochoa in a 2–1 home win against Dijon. For the last game of the season Ajaccio needed a win against Toulouse to get out of the relegation zone. Ochoa started and played 90 minutes against Toulouse and helped Ajaccio win 2–0 to stay in the Ligue 1. Ochoa finished his first season with 8 cleansheets, 43 saves and 133 blocks.[8] Unfortunately he also finished the Ligue 1 season with 59 goals conceded, making him, along with Caen goalkeeper Alexis Thébaux, the most scored-on keeper of the season.[9]
2012–13 season[edit]
On 1 July, Ajaccio's club president Alain Orsoni announced that Ochoa would stay for the 2012–13 season amidst rumored interest from clubs such as Galatasaray and Sevilla, but the neither the clubs nor Ochoa's manager could come to a solid agreement.[10][11]
On 11 August Ochoa started and played against Nice in a 1–0 away win for their first game and win for the season. On 19 August Ochoa played in Ajaccio's 0–0 draw at home against Paris Saint-Germain, in which he played a big part by keeping a clean sheet[12] In the third match of the season Ochoa played 60 minutes against Valenciennes in which he had to be substituted out due to a collision with a teammate. Ajaccio lost the match 0–3. Ochoa finished his season with 12 clean sheets.[13]
2013–14 season[edit]
Despite the possibility of a move to clubs such as Liverpool and Villarreal, Ochoa decided to stay with Ajaccio in his third season. Ochoa started in Ajaccio's first game of the season on 11 August 2013 against Saint-Etienne. Ajaccio lost the match 0–1. On 18 August, Ochoa played against Paris Saint Germain in the Parc des Princes, in which he had an outstanding performance, stopping shots from Zlatan Ibrahimović and Ezequiel Lavezzi, but an Edinson Cavani goal in the 86th minute cost Ajaccio a famous victory, instead settling for a 1–1 draw.
International career[edit]
Mexico national team[edit]
At the age of 20 Guillermo Ochoa was called up by Mexico's former manager Ricardo Lavolpe for the 2006 FIFA World Cup as the third-choice goalkeeper. Newly appointed manager Hugo Sánchez called Ochoa into the national side as a deputy to Mexico's then-number one, Oswaldo Sánchez. In addition to the World Cup, Ochoa has participated in the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup and the 2007 Copa América. He made his 2010 World Cup qualification debut on 28 March 2009 against Costa Rica. Ochoa made the final 23-man cut for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, but was the back-up 'keeper to veteran Oscar Pérez.
During the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup, Ochoa, along with four other members of the Mexico national team, tested positive for the banned substance Clenbuterol and were withdrawn from the team's tournament squad.[14] All players were later acquitted by Mexican Football Federation and the results blamed on contamination of meat, with the ingestion of clenbuterol considered non-intentional.[15] However, the World Anti-Doping Agency appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to request a ban.[16] But on 12 October 2011, WADA withdrew this request after the full file was available for them.[17]
Personal life[edit]
In 2006 Ochoa dated Mexican actress, singer, and songwriter Dulce Maria.[18] The pair split a year later.[19]

EcoloCap Solutions Inc. (OTCQB: ECOS) has been quiet since November 6th, 2012 when they last released news. Here is an excerpt from that press release: Michael Siegel, President and CEO of EcoloCap, stated: "By the end of November we should finish testing of the 25% water blend M-Fuel on a 60kW CAT Genset as a follow-up to our preliminary test of a few weeks ago. We expect to show a 22% + reduction in diesel consumption and a minimum 85% reduction in particulate emissions, which surpasses the minimum expectations of our client for the electricity generation market. To estimate the size of this market, over 1 trillion (1,000,000,000,000) watts of electricity is generated each year by diesel or heavy fuel oil (HFO) worldwide. An NPU-60 produces 18,000 gallons per day, or enough fuel to power approximately 700,000 kilowatts of electricity. Many of the Diesel/HFO power installations will soon be required to reduce emissions and costs of operation. To put things into a realistic perspective, within two years ECOS expects to sell 18 NPU-60s to obtain 1% of the market, or 100,000,000 gallons per year. This represents recurring yearly gross revenue of $25,000,000 per year in additive sales. The use of M-Fuel will reduce or eliminate the need for pollution control methods and at the same time reduce costs substantially. Parallel testing starts on the delivering of M-Fuel samples to Great Britain and Ireland by mid-November."

Mali situation update
01 November 2012
Efforts to bring stability back to Mali have been stepped up over the past few weeks with preparations to deploy 3,300 West African troops.
The unrest began when Islamist groups and Tuareg rebels took control of northern Mali following a military coup in early 2012. The Tuareg people have long opposed the central Malian government, claiming they were not fully represented and calling for Northern Mali to become an independent Tuareg state.
Islamist groups have since driven out the Tuareg rebels and seized control of Northern Mali – an area roughly the size of France. This has attracted supporters of Islamist groups from neighbouring countries, such as Algeria. Over the past month, increasing numbers of supporters have converged on Northern Mali.
The West African force will not initially use military power; instead it intends to focus on ensuring security in the government-controlled south, retraining the Malian army and protecting refugees and villagers. The allied countries hope this intervention will encourage the Islamist groups to negotiate.
The central government continues to control the south of the country, where MRDF's partners are based. The situation in Southern Mali is relatively stable with the majority of people carrying out business as normal. In October, farmers were able to gather in their main harvest of the year, which has started to improve the availability and price of food. MRDF partners, J&D, GRAFE and AMAPEF are continuing to carry out their projects as normal.

Hair with your combo, anyone?
found useful by 1
Ordered a deal, got a pizza and combo, I told the man on the phone Im paying by card, the delivery guy didn't bring the machine, had to stand there with driver and call the shop to pay by phone, the machine in the shop wasnt working. Agreed to a callback later to pay, took food in, halfway through combo I spot a short dark hair stuck to some food. Felt sick. Phoned and complained. The guy didnt seem helpful and eventually offered to replace the combo. I don't actually want their food anymore but that was all he was willing to do. So I'm waiting for that to arrive and ill give the driver their hairy food back. Will NOT be ordering from the palmers green north London branch again.

I think chiyo alluded to PDF's earlier, I have a few on my site but I have "branded" them, so anyone downloading can click links within to get to the site, so if someone wants to link to them I'll pay for the bandwidth for the d/l. If someone steals them then I'll generate traffic from the internal links within the PDF's, oh and I also protected them so people can't tamper with them.
I suppose the alternative to deep linking is they just come and steal the resource and post it as their own. I know you can claim the IPR but it's catching them in the act that can be difficult.

Family Tragedies
In 1937 Joe Kennedy was named ambassador to Britain, and the family lived abroad for about three years. Tragedy first struck the Kennedy clan during World War II, after their return to the United States. Rose and Joe's third daughter, Rosemary, had been born mentally handicapped. In 1941, at the age of 22, she underwent a lobotomy. The procedure only worsened her condition, and she was later institutionalized. Three years later,
fate dealt the family another tragic blow. The Kennedys' first son, Joe, Jr., a distinguished Navy pilot, died overseas when his plane exploded on a secret mission. Then, in 1948, another child, Kathleen, was killed in a plane crash in Europe. Joe Kennedy, Sr. suffered a severe, debilitating stroke in 1961, less than a year after his son, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was inaugurated as the 35th president of the United States; he lingered for more than half a dozen years before dying in 1968. With her husband incapacitated for so long, Rose Kennedy was forced to face the most trying times of her life without him: by the close of decade, two of her sons would become the victims of assassins.
On November 22, 1963, President John Kennedy was shot to death in Dallas, Texas, while riding in a motorcade. As America mourned, Rose Kennedy found solace in religion and faced the public with poise, dignity, and restraint. She later wrote in her memoir Times to Remember: "I...wondered why it had happened to Jack....Everything -- the culmination of all his efforts, abilities, dedication to good and to the future -- lay boundlessly before him. Everything was gone and I wondered why."
Strengthened by her faith in God, Kennedy survived yet another staggering blow: the 1968 shooting death of her son Robert, a U.S. senator and Democratic presidential contender, at the hands of an assassin. The following year, Kennedy's youngest son, Senator Edward ("Ted") Kennedy, was involved in the notorious Chappaquiddick incident, which destroyed his bid for the U.S. presidency. On July 18, 1969, the senator apparently lost control of the car he was driving and crashed into the waters off Massachusetts's Chappaquiddick Island. The accident resulted in the drowning death of his passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne. Kennedy failed to report the crash to the authorities until the following day -- a move that undermined his credibility and shook the faith of American voters. In the aftermath of the scandal, Rose Kennedy rallied to her son's aid and helped to rejuvenate his political career by campaigning for his re-election to the U.S. Senate. He maintained his Senate seat for the next three decades. Reflecting on her remarkable forbearance during crisis after crisis, Rose Kennedy proclaimed that she simply would not allow herself to succumb to tragedy. "If I collapsed," the Los Angeles Times quoted her as having said, "it would have a very bad effect on... the family."
Weakened by a stroke in 1984, Kennedy spent the last decade of her life at the family home in Hyannis Port. She died of complications of pneumonia, at the age of 104, on January 22, 1995, in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts. Five of her children, 28 grandchildren, and 41 great-grandchildren survived her. As her last living son, Senator Ted Kennedy, stated at her eulogy: "She sustained us in the saddest times—by her faith in God, which was the greatest gift she gave us—and by the strength of her character, which was a combination of the sweetest gentleness and the most tempered steel."

The Kennedy Family
There's no such thing as royalty in the United States, but if anyone has ever come close to that level, it's the Kennedy family. For 64 years, Washington had at least one Kennedy in public office. Descended from Irish Catholics who fled the potato famine, the family has a strong tradition in the Democratic party, the most prominent member being President John F. Kennedy. In addition to fame and political power, the Kennedy clan has had more than its fair share of tragedy—several members of the family have died in accidents and assassinations, in what's been called the "Kennedy curse."

Tamayura (たまゆら?) is a Japanese anime series written and directed by Junichi Sato. The initial four-episode original video animation (OVA) series was produced by Hal Film Maker and released over two Blu-ray Disc and DVD volumes in November and December 2010. A 12-episode anime TV series produced by TYO Animations, titled Tamayura: Hitotose, aired in Japan between October and December 2011. A second TV anime season, Tamayura: More Aggressive, aired between July and September 2013. Two manga adaptations illustrated by Momo are published by Mag Garden.
Tamayura centers around a young girl named Fū Sawatari who moves to Takehara, Hiroshima to begin her first year of high school. Her late father grew up in Takehara and this is her first time back in the town in five years. Fū enjoys photography and is often engrossed with taking pictures with her father's old Rollei 35S film camera. A shy girl, Fū tries her best to make friends early on, spurred on by her childhood friend Kaoru Hanawa. She quickly becomes friends with two other girls, Maon Sakurada and Norie Okazaki. After a year has passed, Fū forms a photography club and meets fellow photographer Kanae Mitani.

Where Are You Christmas
Chapter 14: Silver Gives Pink Her Christmas Wish
By: Pink-Green-white-4ever
Last Revised: December 18, 2011
Summary: All she wanted for Christmas was for her family to be together, all he wanted to do was grant her, her heart's desire.
Rating: T
Ship: Silver/Pink
Disclaimer: Don't own the Rangers (SABAN DOES!) and I don't own the song, that's Faith Hill's.
AN: This is set Christmas of 2002 *winks*
3:15 P.M. - Monday
December 16th, 2002
She was restless and quiet and he was starting to go crazy from watching her mope around their house. At nine months pregnant, and so close to her due date, he figured she'd be in nesting mode, or at least that's what he expected after watching Ashley go through it the year before. But no, his wife was curled up on the couch, her eyes unfocused as she stared out the window, looking for a figure he wasn't sure was going to be showing up any time soon. The worst part was, he understood how she was feeling. He too wanted to see the familiar frame dressed in red and gray come up the side walk as he had many times before. This year, it just wasn't going to happen.
It was very nearly Christmas, a holiday that they'd enjoyed ever since Ashley had come to live on KO-35. Christmas was a religious holiday on Earth, first and foremost, and a secular one for most everyone else but they'd created their own kind of Christmas, and for their team, it meant family and being together. This Christmas, it just wasn't going to be the same. All the former Silver Ranger could do was shake his head and think to call his sister-in-law to see if she'd heard anything from her husband.
The fact was, the former Red Space Ranger had come out of retirement earlier in the year to track the remnants of the Machine Empire. Alongside T.J. and eight other Red Rangers, Andros had been in a battle some time before, and had destroyed Lord Zedd's personal Zord, Serpentara. However, it wasn't like the old days where they could just go back to their lives after a battle was over. Andros had had to stay on Earth, to help clean up the mess, but more importantly, to plan with the other Red Rangers and the governments of Earth for any future events like this that might occur. He'd been gone for nearly six months, and only knew that his baby sister was pregnant because when he'd called after the battle, she'd been with Ashley and had spoken to him.
While Zhane was terrified of what his best friend was going to say about becoming an uncle, he was upset that Andros hadn't made it back, and probably wouldn't, before Christmas or the birth of his niece or nephew. Zhane knew that Karone craved having her brother with her when she brought the child she carried into this world. It was one thing to have him and Ashley with her, but they weren't her blood relatives, much as she loved them. She couldn't have her parents there, because they were both long dead, but she had a living breathing big brother and she wanted him home with her.
Catching sight of the tears running rivers down her cheeks, Zhane cursed softly. He heard the song playing on the radio and knew that it wasn't helping his wife's mood. Faith Hill had a stunning voice, but the lyrics to her song, 'Where Are You Christmas', were not going to help Karone's frame of mind. Muttering crossly to himself, he turned for the vid-com. He was damn well going to do his best to make his wife's Christmas wish come true.
8:00 A.M. - Tuesday
December 24th, 2002
Hospital – KO-35
"Feeling okay?" Cassie asked, brushing sweaty strands of blonde hair from Karone's face.
"Tired," the former Pink Galaxy Ranger sighed, leaning back against the pillows. Maya sat at the end of her bed, rubbing Karone's feet. Maya's own belly was just starting to round, revealing her and Mike's growing child. Kendrix stood near the door, her and Leo's tow-headed son braced on her hip as she talked to the doctor. Carlos and Damon sat on the floor, entertaining Cassie and T.J.'s two year old son and Ashley and Andros' one year old daughter. Karone did a mental count and tried to remember where everyone else was. Mike and Kai had gone to Earth to give Leo, Andros and T.J. a hand, Kai's wife Hannah was busy with their two year old son and work on Mirinoi but had sent a vid message and flowers, and Zhane and Ashley had been called to the government building on an emergency call from the ambassador. She hoped, with all her might, that it wasn't anything serious and that her sister and her husband would be there soon. If she couldn't have her brother with her, she wanted the other two members of her family close by.
"Relax," Maya murmured, stroking strong fingers up and down Karone's calves. "Stressing out isn't going to help the baby."
"I know," she gasped as a particularly strong contraction hit. "I just wish…"
Cassie leaned down and kissed her forehead. "They'll be here in time, have a little faith," the former Pink Space Ranger grinned. "They had to stop and get something for you after they were done with the ambassador."
Karone nodded and focused herself on breathing as her contractions grew stronger, gripping her body and causing her to cry out softly. "Breathe," Kendrix ordered as she handed her son to Damon and moved to the opposite side Karone's bed.
Squeezing her eyes shut, Karone could only nod once and focused her attention on her breathing, hoping it would ease some of the pain caused by her body trying to give life to her child. "I wish Zhane and Andros were here!" she cried out seconds before her body relaxed and she flopped back against the pillows. Cassie, Kendrix and Maya shared a look that said they hoped the same.
"I hope I'm not late!" Hannah giggled as she walked in, toting her little boy in her arms. Karone shot her a small smile and shook her head.
"No, your niece or nephew still hasn't made their appearance," the former Pink Ranger softly murmured, patting her belly.
"That's good, because I found something you wanted for Christmas," Hannah commented seconds before Ashley and Zhane strode into the room, followed by another, much beloved, figure.
He grinned and quickly moved toward her open arms, leaning down to kiss her forehead and hug her as tight as he could. He stroked her softly along the back of her head and held her to him. "Shhh," he soothed. "Did you think I'd honestly miss this?" he asked, pulling back to look down into her tear filled eyes. "You're bringing my niece or nephew into this world, I'm not missing this!"
"I'm glad you're here," she choked, seconds before she cried out at the contraction. Kendrix, Cassie and Maya jumped up and began moving to help her through.
"I'll get the doctor," Hannah supplied as the boys moved the kids out of the room. "Mike and Kai are in the hallway," she told them before she rushed out.
"So?" he asked, sitting on the side of her bed.
"Did you like your present?" he asked, leaning over her to rub his lips against hers before looking down at their daughter.
She eyed him carefully. "How'd you get him home?" she asked, tears choking her voice as he looked up from playing with the baby's hands.
"Put a few calls in to some former spandex wearing superheroes and may have called in a few favors with NASADA," he shrugged. "It's not like they needed him that badly for a few days, Tommy's got everything under control for now."
"Beloved," she murmured, reaching out to cup his cheek and lift his face to hers. "Thank you."
"I love you, there isn't anything I wouldn't do for you," he reminded her, turning so he could kiss her palm.
A knock at the door brought them out of their little world for two. It was followed by Ashley darting her head inside. "Safe to come in?"
"Yep," Karone grinned then yawned as Ashley, Andros, Cassie, T.J. and Carlos came in together.
"Well?" Carlos prompted, gesturing to the baby.
Karone laughed while Zhane just glared at his former teammate. "Well what?" the proud daddy grumbled.
"Do we get a name or not?" T.J. laughingly asked, his arm around Cassie.
"Zoe Kalani," Karone nuzzled her sleeping daughter.
"Welcome to the family, little girl," Andros greeted as her newborn baby blues opened up and stared at him before she reached a hand out and grabbed his hair. "And just like your mom, your cousin, and your aunt, you're already playing with my hair."
The comment sent the others into soft, delighted laughter as Andros nuzzled the side of her face, planting gentle kisses on her neck.

QUESTION: I am from Michigan, and I have moved away from my home state for various reasons. Through a series of recent events an old friend came back into my life. But he is back in Michigan, and I am three states away. I know long-distance relationships are possible, but I don't even know where to begin. Do you have any thoughts or wisdom on this subject?
HE SAID: As someone who has traveled the better part of the last fifteen years, I have had some experience with long-distance relationships. As a result, I do have many thoughts on the subject; however you'll have to determine if there is any wisdom in them for you.
In every situation, relational or not, I seek to "find God" in the midst of it. I try not to "over-spiritualize" it to the point of saying, "It must be God for this to happen" or "If God didn't want me to __________, I wouldn't have the opportunity." However, I strive to keep my mind open to unexpected people who come into my life or seemingly strange circumstances I am presented with, not discounting anything to my own "disbelief" or "incomprehension."
In other words, I look for opportunities in everything, not just for myself, but chances to impact others along the way, and believe everything is possible (Mark 9:23).
Fortunately over the past decade, technology has closed the gap between long-distance relationships to the point of making them a lot more feasible and probably more successful. This isn't to say "face-time" isn't necessary and required in a relationship to develop because it is, but the advent of iChat, Skype, smartphones, texting, "free" long-distance calling, etc., has made staying in touch from a distance a lot more practical.
Since this "person of interest" is an "old friend," you have a history; therefore I'm assuming you have exchanged your latest contact information (i.e. phone number, e-mail and physical address, etc.). If you haven't already, send him an e-mail expressing how glad you were to re-connect. Inquire about him—what he's been doing since the last time you were together, why he came back to Michigan, what his plans are, etc. Hopefully at some point he'll ask to call you and phone conversations will ensue.
I do believe guys should take the initiative in pursuing a relationship, but at the outset, especially with an old friend, there's nothing wrong with communicating back and forth.
Eventually, I would recommend finding out where the relationship is headed and what his intentions are. There's no reason to open up and invest your heart in something he considers just a long-distance "friendship."
Once a "relationship" is established, nothing can take the place of being together, but in the interim I have found online video chatting (Skype or iChat) to be important in maintaining a long-distance bond. Despite slow Internet speeds or a poor connection, it is well worth the struggle to actually "see" the person you're talking with.
It's also important to share in common activities "simultaneously" during your time apart, for instance, watching the same movie or television program, playing an online game, webcam-ing with each other, reading a book, etc. Sending "old-fashioned" notes, letters or pictures also help to fill the gap of not being with one another.
Just as in the movie You've Got Mail, there will be a time when "We should meet." Understandably, there can be many costs and sacrifices associated, but if both of you see a future together, you will find a way to make it happen, and he "should" take the lead in doing so.
Generally, long-distance relationships appear to develop along the same lines (time-wise) as other relationships, however, in truth it usually takes a lot longer since you aren't with each other and in each other's world to grow closer. What I'm suggesting is to not have any preconceived timetables for the relationship.
In the meantime, try not to wonder "How in the world it can work" or worry about "figuring it out."
Nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37).
SHE SAID: Each relationship has its own defining characteristics. In college, I remember that my friends and I called some couples "velcro couples," because it seemed they were joined at the hip and could never do anything apart from one another.
Other couples might be defined as "serious" or "casual," as it depends on the nature of their relationship and how committed they are to one another or perhaps how long they have dated or if they are also dating other people while dating each other (hence "casual").
But for some, certain characteristics are seen more as "liabilities" than "challenges." Age gaps, one person having been married before and the other not, culture or heritage differences, children, variance in socio-economic or education levels, etc.
In your case, it's "long distance" that could primarily define your relationship. But it's my heartfelt opinion that if this is a relationship that you feel God has formed or one that you feel he has brought together, then I believe he will help you work through the challenge of dating "long distance."
Yes, it will be a little harder than if you both lived in the same locale and it might be what determines if your relationship goes forward (sometimes distance can expedite a dating relationship toward marriage) or comes to an end (it could be too hard for you to get to know one another only during visits on weekends or in phone conversations or in e-mails or written correspondence). But it is something you and your interest will need to determine for yourselves as to how living far apart from each other will define your relationship. Only the two of you can know if it is something you are willing to try or to stick with for a period of time.
For some couples, it is a non-issue. I know of one such couple who just became engaged after about a year of long-distance dating (three states apart from one another as well). They will wed later this spring. Distance was not a problem, and they saw the value in one another and were able to spot the compatibility and shared vision, interests and worldview even while living far apart.
For others, though, long distance is just too much and stands in the way from a relationship maturing properly or as it should before determining whether marriage is the next step. Distance can become a hindrance, and I believe that God can use it to cause unrest or discord in a relationship and to end it if it is not of him or if it is not what he has purposed for someone's life.
Only you and your interest will know if your relationship can survive dating with many miles between you. And the only way to do that is to actually try it. Give it a go. See what happens for a short period of time (maybe three to six months?) and then discuss how you both feel. And then make some decisions. How much better do you know this individual than when you first started dating? Are there any lingering doubts or concerns? Are there some things that you don't know about this person that only living in the same city would help you discover or know? You will have to decide for yourselves whether to continue on or to go your separate ways.
I don't know of any long-distance dating relationships that are given to us as examples in the Bible. But I do think of some interesting scenarios that involved "distance." There's Abraham's servant who traveled to find a mate for Abraham's son Isaac (Rebekah) which comes to mind (Genesis 24). And then I think of Isaac's son Jacob, when he was travelling (fleeing actually) to stay with his mother's family (and told to take a wife from among his mother's brother's daughters) and met Rachel at probably the very same well where Rebekah was found (Genesis 28). Both involved great distances which represent "challenges" to me in two people coming together who have marriage in mind. And the end goal of dating is to find a mate, yes? Well, for those who are marriage minded at least. Regardless, I think we can glean a little insight from these biblical examples, even though they don't exactly relate to long-distance when it comes to a dating relationship. But in the end, either something is an obstacle or a challenge in your relationship or it is not.
So, could God cause you to have to travel a great distance as well to find out if your interest is someone who could one day be your mate? Perhaps. Only time will tell. I am sure you have already prayed about this situation and are actively seeking God's direction (Proverbs 3:5-6). To begin a long-distance dating relationship will require sacrifice and patience and discernment on both of your parts (as well as time, expense of travel, rearranging of your schedules, additional time spent communicating via phone or by other creative means, etc.). But are you up for it? Is this where God is leading you?
