DEL CITY, Okla. (BP)--Recently our youngest daughter and her husband received notice that the International Mission Board had approved their application for missions service in Southeast Asia. In a few months they will be appointed and then go to the Missionary Learning Center near Richmond, Va., for their training. They and their four children will leave for the field just prior to the Thanksgiving holidays. Jeannie and I are excited about this new and exciting turn in their lives, having known for several years that their hearts were always sensitive to this possibility.
We already have a "family connection" in Southeast Asia. Another daughter, her husband and their five children currently serve with the IMB in that same region. The two families will have the privilege of living in neighboring countries, at least for awhile. It doesn't always work out that way. We're just happy that we can visit two of our children and nine of our 18 grandchildren by heading in the same general direction! And there is incredible joy in knowing that our children and their families who live here in the United States also share a similar passion for fulfilling the Great Commission.
Why am I writing about all this? Perhaps I can best answer that question by telling you of another question frequently asked of us: "Doesn't it grieve you to have your children and grandchildren so far away?" Our answer is always the same: "We love our children and grandchildren dearly! And it's true that being apart is naturally accompanied with some occasional moments of sadness. But isn't it for this that we rear our children? Shouldn't we be determined to plant in their hearts the unique joy that accompanies obedience to the Lord? And shouldn't they see the importance of investing their lives, whatever their calling or occupation, in fulfilling the Great Commission? Isn't it a blessing when your children do not consider their lives as their own, but the Lord's?"
There are two extremes we must learn to avoid. The first expresses itself in the notion that "missionaries and ministers reach and preach" and the rest of us are just not that significant in the fulfillment of the Great Commission. My friend Kent Humphreys, a businessman whose witness and compassion touches multitudes with the Gospel, is fond of reminding folks that the "Hall of Faith" (Hebrews 12) is comprised mostly of business people who simply shared their faith in the marketplaces of the world. The Great Commission is for all of us "since we are going anyway."
The other extreme we must avoid is the notion that ministry and missions is to be "settled for" or "forced into." Parents often brag on the recently graduated child who lands an overseas assignment. "What an adventure! Think what this will mean to your biographical portfolio. And look at the benefits!" But the tune often changes if that same child comes home from summer camp with the news that God has issued a call to missions. "Are you sure? Isn't it dangerous? You'll be so far away! And what possible benefit could there be to all this?"
We must learn to rear our children with eternity in view! It should be the rare individual among us who DOESN'T spend time focused on the importance of sharing the Gospel. Where better to learn this than in the home? And what better time than now? As missionary Amy Carmichael once said, "We each have all of eternity to celebrate our victories; but only a few minutes before sundown to win them!" Let's give our children the privilege of growing up with the Great Commission.
Elliff is pastor of First Southern Baptist Church, Del City, Okla., and chairman of the Southern Baptist Council on Family Life, which is joining forces with LifeWay Christian Resources and the SBC Pastors' Conference in presenting Southern Baptists' first-ever Kingdom Family Rally the evening of June 16 in conjunction with the 2003 meeting of the SBC in Phoenix.

Downtown Montreal and the underground city
... thankful for that. We made some purchases and then went in search of the Art Museum district. This was a short walk from the shopping district, but it amazes me how in such a short walk an area can really change. This area was much more run down, and really felt like the fringes of the city. We had a little look around, but I wasn't about to drag my children through an art museum, especially when I don't really appreciate art. So we went in search of the subway (a bit of ...

This square/forecourt was used as the city's main marketplace during the 17th and 18th century. We were now closer to the water and Im not sure if it was actual or just psychological but it felt much cooler all of the sudden. We decided to seek refuge and warm up in a coffee shop overlooking the Customs House. As we sipped our hot beverages ...

"Isn't Christmas magical with kids?"
It was a text I read from my good friend a few days before Christmas.
Yes it is, and a little overwhelming, too. I tried so hard to "create" a magical Christmas for my children this year, such as decorating a big, beautiful tree (that died a week before Christmas), hanging homemade gingerbread men banners in my boys' room (a sorry sight I must say, as most of the "men" looked rather misshapen), and spending the better part of an hour getting them all dressed to have fun in the snow only to hear knocking on the back door three minutes later with shouts of "I'm ready to come in now, Mommy!"
One day early in December, I made a Costco run. While wandering through one of the Christmas aisles, I spotted an "Elf on the Shelf."
"Perfect!" I thought. I had seen numerous posts of my friend's elves doing all sorts of mischievous things while the kids slept — such as giving mini-concerts to fellow stuffed animals on tiny, toy pianos. So I grabbed an elf and quickly explained the details to my kids.
"We get to name him, and then he comes alive at night and watches you during the day!"
My 5-year-olds' eyes grew wide.
"He reports to Santa if you've been naughty or nice," I said.
He looked at me suspiciously.
That night, I went to find "Thomas" the elf to make his shelf debut. But he was nowhere to be seen. Finally, I crept upstairs to the older boys' bedroom, and there, pinned underneath my 5-year-old, was Thomas. I didn't think it was worth it to wake him, so I quietly left, thinking I'd start the magic the next night.
Morning soon came. As I was downstairs making breakfast, I heard my oldest son tromping down the stairs.
"Good morning!" I said cheerfully. "Did you sleep well?"
"Mom," my son announced, "Thomas is not real!"
"What?" I said.
"I was with him last night," he said. "And guess what? He didn't come alive!"
Racking my brains, I quickly countered with, "Oh, but he doesn't ever come alive if you're watching! It's just like 'Toy Story.' He only comes alive if there are no people in the room!"
Feeling triumphant, I turned back around.
"Mom!" my son exclaimed. "Look at this thing! Feel it. It's stuffed. You think he can come alive? You think he can talk? No. He can't."
I stood there completely dumbfounded. What in the world do I say? Do I force this whole "Elf on the Shelf" thing? Do I try and make him believe? Would giving in mean he'd miss out on a magical Christmas of elfish mischief like powdered-sugar snowball fights with action figures?
Worried that if he was too logical for Thomas the elf, he might also be too logical for Santa, I hesitantly asked the dreaded question:
"Boston — do you believe in Santa Claus?"
"Yes," he responded immediately.
I let out a sigh of relief.
"And I believe in God the Eternal Father," he said and walked away.

Martinez ready for trial by Gunners
Everton boss Roberto Martinez expects his summer's work to be put to the test as Arsenal visit Goodison Park this weekend.
Martinez's side, who finished fifth in the Barclays Premier League last season, opened their new campaign with a 2-2 draw at Leicester last weekend.
Although frustrated to be held to a point, Martinez was pleased with many aspects of the performance and is encouraged for the year ahead.
But he accepts that FA Cup winners Arsenal, who are hoping to mount a stronger title challen...

Hiya everyone,
Okay so sometimes I have this urge to clean up my room. Like, really a good clean-up. Nothing shall be forgotten !
Today, I had this same clean up, in my gallery on deviantart :3
A friend recently told me you could actually edit the looks of your art-folders without needing to have premium (I might buy it once but not now)
So I wanted that too but I realised I had 10 pages of art that I had not categorized just yet.
I thought, ah well, why not ? And started organizing stuff.
So almost everything is in the right folder now, except for the random stuff folder.
I still need to get that sorted out. But the rest is done and I'm quite happy that I actually did it
Not only did I gain alot of inspiration by old drawings, I also can start making the gallery icons now !
I'm quite pumped now <3
So I'm gonna grab my tablet and give it a go ~
Baiibaii !

I remember that some time ago all USB keys had one of these switches, but now I'm having difficulty finding one. We've had enough virus problems recently that I want to create a few USB keys with read-only switches and a bootable Linux recovery LiveCD.
I've got the recovery CD, but what I really need is the USB keys with that switch. Does anyone know where to get them?
Thanks in advance.

Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks have agreed on what could be the final contract for the big German.
A person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday that Nowitzki would get a three-year contract worth roughly $30 million. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal has not been announced.
New contracts can't be signed until next Thursday.
The 36-year-old Nowitzki is taking a big pay cut with a contract similar in value and structure to the one Tim Duncan signed with San Antonio two years ago.
Duncan, who also took a much lower salary, is exercising a player option to return for the final season of his deal after helping the Spurs win their fifth title since 1999.
Nowitzki just completed a four-year deal worth $80 million, and he left money on the table in that deal hoping the Mavericks could get some pieces around him.
The pursuit of other stars is even more urgent with Nowitzki getting close to the end of what figures to be a Hall-of-Fame career. The 2011 NBA Finals MVP put off finalizing the deal until after the Mavericks met with free agent Carmelo Anthony, which happened Wednesday night.
Mavericks owner Mark Cuban recently acknowledged that he couldn't offer Anthony a max contract, so Dallas figures to be stressing the 2011 title led by coach Rick Carlisle, Nowitzki and center Tyson Chandler, who recently rejoined the team in a trade with the New York Knicks.
If the Mavericks miss out on Anthony, there are a number of other small forwards on their wish list, topped by Houston's Chandler Parsons. He is a restricted free agent, and the Rockets can match any offer.
Dallas also wants to re-sign point guard Devin Harris, and will target several others at that position if Harris goes elsewhere.

Britt Hayes is a writer, movie lover, and sensible sweater enthusiast living in Austin, Texas. She watches too much TV and never eats her vegetables. Her mom is worried about her.
We're continuing Oscars week with another sexy nominee -- this time it's Joaquin Phoenix from 'The Master' and a totally classic cutie.
We're tired of these glamorized sex scenes in movies -- the truth is that sex is awkward and weird sometimes, and we love when movies get it right. There's nothing quite like a painfully awkward sex scene in a movie, whether it's played for laughs or for discomfort. We've collected a list of the most awkward sex scenes in movies, ranging from the hilarious to the embarrassing, cringe-worthy, and hard to watch.
Who do you get to play the God of Thunder? Probably a dude who looks like Chris Hemsworth -- the kind of guy some ancient civilization would have built a statue to honor.
In case you missed it last night, Justin Timberlake performed at the Grammys and that fool brought sexy back all over again. We've missed it.
It's the shortest month of the year, but there's no shortage of movies hitting DVD and Blu-ray this month. Check out our guide to see what you might want to buy this February.
It's hard to look at Jake Gyllenhaal and not get sucked in to those beautiful blue eyes -- but it's sure fun to try.
Did you miss the return of your favorite shows this week? Too bad, suckas. But hey, if you want to relive the best moments or bookmark some awesome GIFs to post on your blog and passive-aggressively tell the internet how you're feeling, we've got the best GIFs from TV this week.

PRNL Reopens to Visitors
Contact: Tim Colyer, 906-387-2607, ext. 203
Grand Marais and Munising, Michigan – Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore re-opened to visitors today. Visitors can access public areas and roads immediately while facilities and other public services are brought back online. Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore had been closed since October 1 due to the lapse in Congressional appropriations.
Did You Know?
Bear claw marks can be seen on the trunks of American beech trees because the bark is so smooth. Bears climb trees for safety and to eat beech nuts. The non-native beech bark disease is sweeping through Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, killing many beech trees. Trees scarred with bear claw marks will be harder to find. More...

Paola Antonelli in Objectified
This is my favorite clip of the film, Objectified. It is the most inspiring comment that has laid the groundwork for my confidence, for my philosophy, for my self realization that I can do more than just design objects. That, as a designer, what I can contribute to the world can transcend beyond the mere criticisms or debates of form and function.
The most valuable tools of design are not tools to which to create but tools to which to connect and understand. That single tool is empathy. Such a tool can allow any designer to do what Antonelli is talking about and be personally involved in culture generating and policy making. And it makes sense. Naturally, designers are aware of other cultures beyond the culture of design and have very diverse perspectives in art, film, music, fashion, technology and politics.
I myself have opinions on America's educational system and even have thoughts on Religion and it's placement in the modern world but all I can do as of now is just voice my opinion. But even so, I believe designers who talk about such topics and are in a position to make such decisions can then move forward toward this frontier of change Antonelli is talking about.
It is also her words that cements the idea that all designers should have some form of internal view of design itself. To go beyond simply creating for the sake of aesthetics OR function. Like any artist with a well defined sense of purpose or conviction, those sentiments will naturally fall in the DNA of their own work.
This is where I'd like to go next.
The designer not solely as maker of objects and artefacts but the designer as policy maker, researcher, strategist and scientist.
o u r e t h o s
It starts with the person (us).
And being aware of how we're influenced by the place(s) we inhabit.
Places defined not by walls & ceilings but by the things we choose to surround ourselves with.
The more we're aware, the better we can choose those things.
Hyper Awareness for Hyper Contentedness.
- Kenya Hara in Designing Design (via sssarah)
In the waning moments of the twentieth century, the superhero is everyman. Look at the way we live: traveling over the Earth at astounding speeds with unimaginable ease; communicating instantly at will with people in the farthest corners of the globe; engineering economies, driving environmental forces, working wonders. If a person from only a hundred years or so in the past could look in on our lives, that person would suppose that we were not mortals, but gods. He would be bowled over by what the most ordinary among us could do with a car or a light switch." — from The New Bards by Elliot S. Maggin

Great location! Loved easy walks on the beach.Posted Aug 27, 2014
Cons: There was no vent in the bathroom, so it got steamy.
Had a great time. Thoroughly enjoyed eating breakfast while watching the wave spray in the morning sun.

OK hotel on the beachPosted Aug 25, 2014
Pros: close to beach. the porch and lil food shack had decent food and great service. the bar area and service was also great.
Cons: clean carpets. stop the parking for outsiders. chairs closer to the water. room service coming at the same time instead of being sparatic.
Location: a lot of shopping, restaurants, golf courses, mini golf, water sports, tours, plenty to keep all busy.
I'm an avereage 6'. Feet hung over the double bed every nite. Pillows have no substance what so ever and never got a good nites sleep. Wondered why every day we found sand in our shower even though we cleaned our feet down by the pool even after being in the ocean. I realized it had to be the carpet. Parking when we arrived on Sunday was terrible only to find out they allow others to park during the day and charge them $5 Friday nites and $30 on the weekend taking away parking for those who stay at the hotel and take day trips as we did. Unless your willing to use their chairs next to the volley ball courts for free you get chanrged about $30 to use the ones on the beach closer to the ocean. Lounge chairs at the volleyball courts always faced towards the courts and never towards the ocean or sun and had to be turned every day to get sun. Funny once I turned them others did the same. Hotel never got the hint. Rained one late afternoon so we went back to room. Found room service was never there earlier as other days so we had no clean towels and then they nocked on the door and were annoyed I said the couldn't come in to clean the room.

Better than expected!Posted Aug 24, 2014
I was very hesitant at first, because Holiday Inn is not well known as a "5 star hotel". We were wanting a beach front hotel that was not in comparison to a motel 8. This hotel ended up being above and beyond what I anticipated. SO many incredible things this hotel has to offer....tiki bar, live music, wrap around pool, outdoor/indoor restaurant, a specific children's pool, a swing and fountain area, very clean hotel rooms, the front desk was more than polite and accommodating. The rooms even have a Locking safe box to store your stuff! My only complaint is that some of the hotel rooms, the ones that do not face the beach, do not have balconies. Therefore the room feels very stuffy...My towels and even bathing suits were hanging in the bathroom for well over 24 hours and still were just as wet as when they were used. Other than that, excellent! I will be returning again.

Summer vacationPosted Aug 20, 2014
Pros: Nice,clean, comfortable rooms. Close to shopping, restaurants, mini golf,etc.
Location: Shops, food, groceries.
Nice room, but don't expect an ocean view unless you want to pay $125 more for your room. Kind of glad we weren't ocenside, because the music at the outside bar would keep you up all night. They had live music, lots of dancing,the most lively place on the beach that I saw.

Good hotel at Hilton Head islandPosted Aug 10, 2014
We liked our stay at Hilton Head island. Staff was very attentive, bartenders were great, and made tasty drinks. The room was comfortable and clean. A few suggestions to improve: Put some information about your hotel in the room. There was nothing in the room about the hotel, its restaurants, amenities. I asked the staff about this at the hotel's main desk. The explanation was that the hotel just changed hands and information was forthcoming. I think a simple one-pager with basic hotel information could be done in less than one day and placed in each room. This would have been very helpful. Fix dead drink vending machines. There's nothing worse than a nearby vending machine that's "Out of Order" for several days, and no apparent fix in sight. Improve wait service in the restaurant called "The Porch." Very slow. Pick up the pace.

Good place to stay!Posted Aug 3, 2014
We were able to check in early when we arrived. Enjoyed being able to walk out onto the beach from hotel. Pool was really nice. Tiki Hut and entertainment was great. We were within walking distance of restaurants so we didn't have to drive any place once we checked in.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We are very sorry to hear our rooms and hallways failed to impress you.

We are even more excited about upcoming improvements though. We'll take all your feedback to heart, as guest satisfaction is our top priority. We hope you consider Beach House again. We'd love the opportunity to win you over!

Not so hot.Posted Aug 2, 2014
Pros: Location on the beach.
Cons: Just about everything.
Location: It's on the beach.
Everytime I walked into my room there was an awful smell of staleness. There was a candy wrapper on the hallway floor for 2 days. Even the house keeping staff didn't pick it up. They didn't leave me fresh towels the second day, I saw the house keeper in the hall and told her. She gave me attitude and said "I know. I'm taking inventory". When I got back to the room there were no fresh towels. The hallways are in desperate need of new paint and carpet. The room doors had paint peeling off of them. I couldn't walk barefoot in my room because the ancient carpet felt soggy and damp when I did. That part was particularly distasteful. The air conditioner was so loud I had to turn it off during the night. The bed was good. The front desk and wait staff were very good.

We are very sorry that you did not receive the same quality of service from our housekeeping team.

Crop Tee - Topshop
Joni Jeans - Topshop
Boots - New Look
Tattoo Choker - Totnes high street in the mid ninties...
This is an outfit from last week, from when I went to see one of our finest local bands Lake Komo playing.
My disco pants have recently died a death, and I am truly devastated. I am still considering buying a new pair, but at half the price, I thought I'd pick up some high waisted jeans for now. I got the Topshop Joni jeans and they are pretty comfortable, but not nearly as flattering as my beloved AA Discos. I haven't worn jeans in about five years so it's kinda new territory for me. Am I the only person who is out of their comfort zone in jeans?
I've also been busting out the old school tattoo chokers in recent months, ever since certain celebs "brought them back". I literally still had all my old ones from when I was a kid sitting in a drawer so I dug them out and I have loads of them... I may have been a little obsessed back in the day.
Lake Komo are definitely worth checking out, they're the kind of local band that you don't just go see because you're mates with them and you'd feel bad if nobody showed up, they're actually really talented and have a loyal fanbase. They're an awesome foursome (not that you can tell from the one fantastic tipsy iPhone shot I managed to salvage above) and last Friday's gig was definitely a success. The venue was packed, with everybody there singing all the words and a serious encore chant at the end. I see big things for these guys, and I always have their tunes stuck in my head! If you are going to Bestival definitely go and see them if you can, as they will be playing the BBC Introducing stage!

Inspired Teacher Certification Program
Through a 24-month residency program, each Inspired Teaching Fellow is prepared for a successful and sustainable career as a teacher and changemaker in Washington, DC while earning a DC teaching license and a Master of Arts in Teaching.
The Inspired Teacher Certification Program is rooted in the belief that teachers, as Instigators of Thought®, can be changemakers in their classrooms, schools, and society as a whole. Becoming a part of Inspired Teaching means joining a movement to change the way children are educated. Inspired Teaching believes that it will be teachers who ultimately change schools in our country so that they can achieve the promise of ensuring all children reach their full potential.
The Inspired Teaching model for teacher preparation ensures that teachers are well-prepared for effective careers as teachers in urban-environments. Through a year-long residency, Fellows learn the skills and dispositions of an Inspired Teacher under the guidance of a lead teacher, arming them with the knowledge and experience necessary for a smooth transition into their teaching career. In their second year, as teachers of record in District of Columbia public schools, Fellows continue to receive intensive classroom mentoring. During both years of the program, Fellows are enrolled as full-time graduate students at Trinity Washington University, completing coursework that results in a Master of Arts in Teaching.
