The spirit of giving hit close to home this year for i.HUG, a nonprofit presided over by Pharm Exec's very own Joanna Breitstein. The organization received a remarkable $17,400 donation from the healthcare ad agency LyonHeart, which offers hope to the children in Uganda who need it the most.
LyonHeart decided to refurbish its old computers, and sold 65 Macs and PCs for a small donation—but enough to support a significant portion of i.HUG's costs to provide education, medical care, and other relief to 85 orphans and underprivileged children living in complete poverty in Kabalagala, Uganda.
The check was presented to Joanna Breitstein by LyonHeart's CEO Anne Devereux at a ceremony to kick off the company's annual fundraising drive for the United Way.

china / asia
The climate and geography of China is as diverse as its people with close to 500 indigenous and distinct ethnic groups. China claims the largest population in the world at an astonishing 1,336,718,015 people. With such an immense population, social and health care needs are far greater than that of available resources. Regardless of religious persecution in China, the Church has not only merely survived, it has grown at an outstanding rate. Officially, China remains atheist. The duration of spiritual receptivity is unknown so there is a growing sense of urgency to continue to share the gospel, train and equip new believers to continue to share Christ with others.
God has protected and grown the Church in China on a scale unforeseen by anyone a few decades ago. Persecution designed to destroy the Church served instead to purify her through suffering and the power of the Holy Spirit, who inspired fervent prayer and zealous evangelism.— Operation World
The future influence of the church, may be a Chinese influence.— Chris Wynn
Christians are engaging in social causes and impacting the lives of millions.— Operation World
China has the largest population in the world with 1,336,718,015 people as of July 2011.
China remains officially atheist, and Communist Party members number well over 70 million. But the Christian population has eclipsed this number (it is also far outstripped by Chinese Buddhists). Increasing numbers of Party members are believers.
The first WorldVenture party of ten reached Shanghai the last day of 1946. Bennie and Dorothy Benson and Ruth Mayo went to the city of Ganxian, Jiangsi, to operate an orphanage, and the remaining seven went to western China, to be joined by eleven others. The ultimate goal of the China ministry was to reach the 1.5 million Nosu people in the mountains. The mission for which these missionaries had gone to China was not accomplished due to the domination of the Communist government. Today, WorldVenture has international staff fulfilling the Great Commission in a country that is stretching and uncomfortable for any believer in Christ.
Today &Tomorrow
WorldVenture workers in China are hopeful that the future will bring significant breakthroughs in the areas of discipleship, business as mission and holistic leadership development.
5 GlobalObjectives
You can eat scorpions on a stick!— Chris Wynn
So of course our taste buds are in shock and even those who aren't picky eaters are saying --- WHAT IS THAT? But overall the food in China is great! We love the spinning tables with everything in the center. It gives everyone a chance to taste everything on the table. And no there are no folks and spoons unless you're eating soup. We're in China. The utensil for every meal is chopsticks.— Angela Hicks
Christians are now found in every stratum of Chinese society.— Operation World
The mountains are high and the Emperor is far away.— Chinese proverb regarding the rule of law.
Jogging in China is not easy. I took my running gear, but have only managed half a dozen runs in three months – partly because I've been living out of a suitcase a lot, but mostly due to air quality. … The air in most big cities in China is visibly smoggy … and I do notice breathing is harder when running.— Simon Bevan
I would be surprised if the proportion of women pastors isn't one of the highest of any country in the world. Chinese churches, both underground and government-sponsored alike, by and large have no qualms about putting women in a position of authoritative church leadership, whether preaching or otherwise.— Anonymous
Knowing is not as good as loving; loving is not as good as enjoying.— Confucius
The following is a live news feed mirrored from an independent news service, and offers a current stream of headlines coming out of the country. WorldVenture does not control headlines, but only "mirrors" them from other websites.
We have many opportunities requested by our teams, but we're open to new ideas. God has moved us into over 60 countries by bringing us people with vision, passion and calling. If you don't find an opportunity that fits, or doesn't fully fit ... let's talk. Our first priority is relationship (i.e. "Are we a good fit for each other? You and WorldVenture"). Once that is clear, we will walk with you into almost anything.
If you'd like to learn more, we'd like to make that happen. We have a simple online tool to get better acquainted. Use the button to the right. It's not an application and involves no obligation.
There are a few countries in which we can't list our entire team publicly. Bringing the Gospel to people has risks, and for some of our work we have to keep things offline.
As a person begins appointment, the make-up and ethos of the field team is discussed as we look for the right fit.
With respect for people and their cultures, we communicate, by word and deed, the full scope of biblical truth and, especially, the gospel. We make disciples of Jesus Christ among all peoples through different kinds of evangelism..
We seek to build and nurture authentic relationships with people who have no knowledge of Jesus Christ with whom we can share our faith. Paul asks, 'How are they to believe in the one they have not heard of?' Romans 10:14. The answer is that they can't. It is our desire for those who have never heard the gospel or never understood it to have the chance know God. Many times a true opportunity to hear the gospel requires an environment of trust and friendship first.
Scriptures: Matt 28:18-20, Rom 10:14, 1 John 4:19.
We recognize both the internal conversion of the heart and external profession of faith as milestones in the journey of obedience to Jesus Christ. We encourage new believers to identify themselves as Christ-followers in ways that are recognized as authentic in the local context.
Scriptures: Romans 10:10, Matthew 5:14-16, Eph. 4:20-24, Mark 16:15 .
Baptism is another external milestone in the journey of obedience for a new believer. We encourage new Christ-followers to further identified themselves with Jesus Christ and the local community of faith through baptism by immersion.
Scriptures: Romans 6:3-6, Galatians 3:27, Matthew 28:19-20.
We nurture reasonable steps taken to pursue spiritual growth and evangelism from Christians and non-Christians. This often looks like greater depth in comprehending biblical truths and expressing their growing faith in ways meaningfully in their own culture.
Scriptures: Hebrews 10: 24-25, Eph. 4:11-17, Matthew 28: 18-20.
We actively invest time and talent into Bible translation and creation of Christian media knowing that these investments will expand and deepen the influence of the gospel in a culture.
Scriptures: Acts 2:8-11, Philippians 2:9-11, Acts 13:47-49, Acts 8:26-39.
Following the example of Jesus, we address human suffering and practical needs everywhere we share the gospel, whether it be through individual acts of mercy or community-wide programs.
Lasting community development is only achieved by insiders. Meaning, we assisted people in their own development efforts in the areas of acquiring sustainable food, water, shelter, literacy, vocational training, education, and employment. Our explicit goal is empowerment, dignity, and community ownership.
Scriptures: Deuteronomy 10:18, 1 Samuel 2:8, Psalm 145:15-16, Luke 12:33.
The grace and blessing of medical care where there is no other access to medical help is one of the longest standing outreaches of WorldVenture. Our hospitals and rural clinics dot some of the most difficult locations in the world.
Scriptures: Jeremiah 33:6, Isaiah 40:29, Matt 19:2.
We seek out those who have become vulnerable and fallen to the advantage of other people. We advocate for them within available legal systems, or we build exits and avenues for them to leave their circumstances.
Scriptures: Isaiah 43:2, Psalm 72:4, Isaiah 51:4-5, Ezekiel 34:15-16, Psalm 82:3-4.
In large scale disasters which are within locations we have workers and churches, we bring help directly to the people effected by the disaster. Our networks are often the most established in the communities to the point that larger relief organizations will defer to us on the ground. Yet our strategies always extend past the immediate response to include some form of rebuilding and restoration.
Scriptures: 1 Cor 16:1-4, Psalm 145:15-16, Philippians 4:19.
Building his church is central to Jesus' purposes. We strive to establish healthy local churches that will establish other churches, resulting in church planting movements.
Recognizing that church planting is typically more of a process rather than a one-time event, we speak of a church as being "established" when the local church and its local sister churches recognize it as such. We value real growth of the church, and use milestones like this to give us benchmarks to celebrate.
Scriptures: Matthew 28:18-20, Romans 15:20-21, Matthew 18:20, 1 Timothy 4:13, Acts 16:4-5.
Another milestone we encourage as a mark of a maturing church is the multiplication of daughter churches. More than anything this is a sign of the outward growth and maturity of the faith community.
Scriptures: Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 16:4-5, Romans 15:20-21, Ephesians 2:19-22.
We develop leaders who are able to lead others in contextualizing and maximizing their Kingdom impact – locally, regionally, and around the world.
Our workers staff numberous formal seminaries and bible schools as teachers or administrators. We know that people being equipped in and for ministry through formal degree/diploma granting institutions is an investment in the future health and vitality of the church.
Scriptures: Proverbs 2:10-11, Luke 2:45-47, Proverbs 1:1-7.
In addition to formal academic training, we encourage leadership development through non-formal ministry training seminars, courses, and programs. These programs are equally as powerful for deepening and establishing churches through informed and mature lay leaders.
Scriptures: Psalm 32:8, Psalm 119:105, John 10:3-4.
Experience has taught us that some of the most natural and effective future missionaries come from the children of our current missionaries. Not only does the investment in these children make it possible for their parents to work in remote locations, most of the international schools in which we partner encourage the personal ministry and impact these children can have while on the field.
Scriptures: Deuteronomy 4:9, Matthew 18:2-5, 1 Timothy 4:12.
Our 360° vision for impacting societies recognizes that there are a handful of key roads to impacting in any given city or provence or people group. For example, business and media are key influencers in a society, but often fall outside designated leadership tracks like pastors and teachers. We encourage the development of Christian leaders who will influence society through business, politics, medicine, media, social justice, and family and community development.
Scriptures: John 17:15-19, Colossians 3:23-24, 1 Corinthians 14:12, Romans 12:6-8, Matthew 25:23.
We will encourage individuals, churches, and church movements everywhere to connect with each other and other organizations, creating international relationships for networking, collaborating, and partnering to do missions "from everywhere to everywhere."
We encourage the natural progression of a maturing national church by advocating for the training and development of national Christians to become missionaries. Crossing-cultures is always difficult, even for those who are born and raised in multi-lingual, multi-cultural environments, and preparation can be a key element in the succeess of a national missionary.
Scriptures: Psalm 144:1, Galations 3:28, Psalm 32:8, Isaiah 61:1.
In addition to individuals going out as missionaries, we encourage national churches to engage in missions.
Scriptures: Romans 10:15, John 15:1-27, Matthew 9:35-38.
From the individual to the church and then finally to the multi-church association, we encourage many national church groups and church associations to engaged in missions. We seek a culture of outward movement and self-sacrifice as a healthy part of a national church.
Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 8:1-7, 2 Corinthians 9:10-12, Romans 10:15.

What type of education is needed to be a nurse massage therapist. - page 2
I was told by a friend that an RN can give a "relaxation" massage vs. a "therapeutic" massage without any further education. Is this true? We were taught is nursing school to give massages, especially after a bath or prior to hs.... Read More
- 0Jan 17, '07 by syringeslingerMassage liscensing varies greatly from state to state in the U.S. Check with the state you are interested in for required credentials. Liscensed Massage Therapists (LMT) in Ohio are required to complete approx. 800 hours of massage technique and anatomy and physiology. Liscensing is regulated by the State MEDICAL Board, you must pass a board exam just like Nursing boards, and complete CEU's q 2yrs.
In other states,all you need a weekend workshop.
In Canada, you need over 2000 hours of training to be considered a massage therapist.
- 0May 6, '07 by LateBloomingRN2BIn Florida, when I was licensed in 2000 we had to have 500 hours and six months, plus pass the NCBTMB exam. For info on each state's regulations you can go to www.ncbtmb.org (It's the National Board for Massage Therapy). I think Texas is 1000 hours, but won't swear to it. Some states do not regulate massage therapy, you can hang your shingle and be open for business with little regulation. States such as California specifically are governed broadly and each city regulates the practice even further. However, this may have changed I haven't looked into these things in a couple years. ABMP (Associated Bodywork/Massage Professionals) keeps a running tally of who, what, when and how much on its website, which is very informative as well at: www.abmp.com
Also, there is a Nurse Massage Therapist organization at www.nanmt.org
Hope this helps.
- 0Jun 6, '07 by cosmetic tattooisttanya
in my state of colorado it is clearly stated on the boards website that masage is within scope of practice. there is also an algorythm to follow. Find someone to train you one on one in the field of massage you desire. With further clinical hands on there is no reason for you to take a long drawn out course. That's the beauty of nursing we have had our formal training during school. It is now time to flourish a seek out what really turns us on and follow that path. Helping people and helping ourselves is a beautiful thing.
- 0Jun 6, '07 by charebec65I don't know about this but when I was in the ER for a relentless migraine and severe back pain, one of the RT's, whom is also a massage therapist, gave me a migraine relieving massage. While it didn't take all of it away, it did help quite a bit. I wouldn't let him do anything to my back. Maybe I should have let him.
My daughter's fiancee' is from S. Korea and he a LMP there. He's not taken the exams here yet so he can't practice but boy can he give a massage!
- 0Jul 1, '07 by island40Simple massage, like the back massage nurses used to give to all patients at HS, is sanctioned under an RN license in most states so long as you are not charging for the massage alone- that is where the massage therapist cert. comes in. If you are being paid for other RN services and want to "throw it in" then you should be able to. Ask your BON.
- 0Jul 1, '07 by cosmetic tattooistI really wish that nurses would act like nurses!! Please look at the FAQ section of the colorado board of nursing. It will clearly say that it is within scope of practice and and independant act. Therefore please charge for your services. We were taught basic massage and if you take it further and receive training in massage that interests you and you clearly help people then DO IT!!!
We tend to over think everything. Don't let other stand in your way from making a great living and doing what you like. Have some backbone (just a pun). Just make sure that in your state it is legal, sometimes that is very vague. If so proceed with caution but follow your heart.

Mathematics Jazz
- Words: Ryan Romana
- Label: Social Studies
Mathematics has definitely established a fine balance between soulful funk and edgy techiness, a quality that has made their tunes feel at home with a wide spectrum of DJs. "Jazz" is no exception as it drives through distorted Rhodes and a rollercoaster-moving bassline. Check the flip, "Sphinx," where the bass sounds fall into a deep abyss.

Accuform™ cushions
Accuform Cushions are ideal for high-precision head and neck treatments when enhanced comfort, stability and repositioning accuracy are key. This soft, cloth-covered pillow is filled with tiny beads coated in water-curable resin. When sprayed with water, the cushion becomes pliable, allowing it to be formed to the patient's specific anatomical contours, including custom pitch and rise. After a few minutes the cushion forms a rigid, yet comfortable custom mould. The 15 x 20cm cushion is ideal for filling in gaps under a patient's head and neck on a standard Headrest such as Silverman whilst the 20 x 25cm can be used as a stand alone cushion.
Single patient use product.

The American Cyclopædia (1879)/Botticelli, Sandro
From Wikisource

|Edition of 1879. See also Sandro Botticelli on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
BOTTICELLI, Sandro, an Italian painter, born in Florence in 1437, died there in 1515. One of his earliest frescoes, "St. Augustine in Ecstasy," is in one of the churches of Florence. He decorated for Sixtus IV. a chapel in the Vatican, and painted numerous figures of the popes and three large frescoes. Among his masterpieces are "The Birth of Christ," now in a private collection in London, and a crowned Madonna in the gallery at Florence. He engraved the first 19 prints for the famous edition of Dante's Inferno printed at Florence in 1481. His devotion to Savonarola subjected him to much persecution.

Special to the Standard
EXETER – Ladd School, once a scene of indescribable heartache and tragedy, was reborn yesterday as the Rhode Island State Fire Academy.
Dignitaries, including Gov. Lincoln D. Chafee, state Fire Marshal John E. Chartier, State Police Superintendent Col. Steven G. O'Donnell, Richard Licht, state director of administration, State Senate President M. Teresa Paiva-Weed – and representatives of fire and police departments across the state – attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
It was so crowded that people lined the walls and spilled out into the parking lot out back.
The colors were posted by members of the North Kingstown Fire Department before a prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem.
At the end of the anthem, Muzzy, a brindle Akita in training to be a therapy dog, produced a single loud bark of approval.
Chafee said the new facility will make "Rhode Island the leader for first responders going into dangerous situations."
Col. O'Donnell said, "We've waited a long time for this day. You will receive training which will enhance all your skills. The opportunity to study here will only increase public confidence."
State Fire Marshal John E. Chartier called the opening of the academy, "a new start for the fire service in Rhode Island. Finding facilities was always difficult."
He noted that the first training school was headquartered above a steak house, the next was in a tricked-out garage and another was at Quonset.
According to official press information, the academy is "the first step in providing a training facility that meets a national standard and will be used to train all firefighters in the state."
Using borrowed facilities over the past two years, the fire academy has held 138 classes attended by nearly 4,500.
It was designed by Robinson Green Beretta of Providence and includes a "burn building" for live training as well as a tower and other structures and devices.
The new academy is located on property near the Rhode Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery on Route 2, on a developed area that includes the Job Corps and the Phoenix House rehab center.
Founded in 1907, the Exeter School was intended to serve mentally or physically challenged youth to prepare for future employment as housekeepers, farm workers and factory assemblers.
In rapid fashion, the school became overcrowded with staff unable to keepfulfill their responsibilities. Under successive superintendents, Ladd became a dumping ground for children and older patients. Rumors of abuse and neglect – especially in the notorious "back wards" — were rampant.
The school population surged to more than 1,000 in the mid-'70s. Arlene Violet, who would later become the state's first woman attorney general, represented a parents' group that succeeded in getting the patient numbers cut by two-thirds. The remainder went to other schools or to live in group homes.
When reports of patient abuse continued, the school was closed in 1994.
During the construction of the fire academy, one worker reported a feeling uneasy in some of the buildings.

You Can't Get There from Here
Tags: activism, media commentary
Filed Under Uncategorized | By Morgan J Curtis
A post at elephantjournal yesterday has got me thinking. The post is short and to the point, ultimately summed up in the title "Do PETA's Ends justify their Means?†Now, I've been grumbling about PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) for a long time because of what I believe to be a never-ending series of misogynistic ads. However, looking beyond the misogyny itself for a minute (it's difficult but go with me), this begs the broader question of which tactics we are willing to use to bring about the change we want to see.
I do see all oppression as linked and am therefore opposed to throwing one group under the bus for the sake of gains in one area (ahem, ENDA). Here's the thing… we can't create the world we want to see by consistently engaging in tactics that are inconsistent with our vision for the world, no matter how much attention those tactics may bring to our cause. Maybe objectification of women really isn't inconsistent with the world PETA is trying to create. (You kind of have to wonder at this point, right?) I'd like to think that most of us would hold ourselves, and the causes we champion, to a higher standard than that.
Sure, maybe we don't get as much attention as PETA. Maybe we don't garner as much publicity and therefore get as many donations. Maybe we make smaller, more incremental changes – one person or small group at a time. To me, that is preferable to using outlandish and ultimately harmful tactics to get attention and make a point. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for outlandish as long as it's outlandish in a way that is consistent with my ultimate vision for the world. And, it seems to me that if the attention paid PETA's tactics were really reflective of their effectiveness then everyone would be a vegetarian by now.

Iran topped their initial agenda, aides said, with Obama seeking to build mutual trust and convince Israel that he was serious when he said he would not let Iran get nuclear weapons.
As a joint news conference on Wednesday, Netanyahu repeated that Israel had a right to defend its own national interests, but added that he was "absolutely convinced" Obama meant what he said - a strong statement seen as significant by some analysts.
"Now I think there is almost complete understanding between Israel and the United States on the Iranian issue," said Amotz Asa-El, fellow at the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem.
"Specifically, they are waiting to see if the June election in Iran ignites some kind of social upheaval, a prospect that both Washington and Jerusalem obviously prefer," he added, referring to a mid-year presidential poll.
Israel and Western powers believe Iran is looking to prepare a nuclear arsenal - something Tehran denies, while defending its right to enrich uranium for civil uses. Netanyahu has set a "red line" across Iran's progress on enrichment, which he has said could be crossed in the spring or summer - hinting at unilateral military action unless the Islamic republic backs down.
Giora Eiland, a retired general and former Israeli national security adviser, said the prospect of such an attack was receding: "I think that the option still exists," he said, "But that every day that passes lowers its chances of success."
Reflecting Israel's isolation in a largely hostile region, Obama engineered a call between Netanyahu and his Turkish counterpart on Friday, enabling the two U.S. allies to overcome a diplomatic crisis sparked by the deaths of nine Turks in 2010 during an Israeli commando raid off the Gaza Strip.
The move to normalise relations with a NATO member state that was one of its few Muslim friends in the region could help coordination to contain spillover from the Syrian civil war.
"Given what we see in the Middle East, we see a situation in which our relations with Turkey can be very, very important for the future, regarding what happens with Syria, but not just what happens with Syria," said a source in Netanyahu's office.
Yet if the tensions with Turkey unexpectedly eased, Obama's visit did little to raise hopes that the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict was any nearer resolution.
Going over the heads of Israeli leaders, who have questioned whether they have a viable negotiating partner on the other side of the separation barrier that twists through the West Bank, Obama appealed directly to ordinary citizens to push for change.
In a powerful speech to appreciative students, the U.S. president warned on Thursday that the Jewish state risked growing international isolation without a peace accord.
However, he did not bring any proposals on how to resume negotiations, which broke down in 2010, and he backed away from a previous demand for Israel to end settlement building, simply calling the construction an impediment to peace.
He promised that his new secretary of state, John Kerry, would dedicate much time and energy to the problem, but many Israelis saw his comments as a sign Washington would distance itself from a diplomatic quagmire familiar to his predecessors.
"The era when the USA pushed Israel and the Palestinians into a political process is gone," said Gidi Grinstein, president of the Reut Institute, a Tel Aviv-based think tank.
"In the absence of American vision and strategy, considering Obama's priorities and with the present positions of Israel and the Palestinians, the USA is basically saying: 'You call us. We won't call you'," he added.
Although Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas welcomed Obama's speech, some of his political allies were more damning.
"Obama's visit provides no clear way forward for a serious solution to the conflict," said Wasel Abu Yousef of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. "It seems the U.S. is not interested in solving the conflict, but rather managing it."

Reverse evolution : driving forces behind the loss of acquired photosynthetic traits
Kurzfassung auf EnglischBackground:
The loss of photosynthesis has occurred often in eukaryotic evolution, even more than its acquisition, which occurred at least nine times independently and which generated the evolution of the supergroups Archaeplastida, Rhizaria, Chromalveolata and Excavata. This secondary loss of autotrophic capability is essential to explain the evolution of eukaryotes and the high diversity of protists, which has been severely underestimated until recently. However, the ecological and evolutionary scenarios behind this evolutionary ''step back'' are still largely unknown.
Methodology/Principal Findings:
Using a dynamic model of heterotrophic and mixotrophic flagellates and two types of prey, large bacteria and ultramicrobacteria, we examine the influence of DOC concentration, mixotroph's photosynthetic growth rate, and external limitations of photosynthesis on the coexistence of both types of flagellates.
Our key premises are: large bacteria grow faster than small ones at high DOC concentrations, and vice versa; and heterotrophic flagellates are more efficient than the mixotrophs grazing small bacteria (both empirically supported). We show that differential efficiency in bacteria grazing, which strongly depends on cell size, is a key factor to explain the loss of photosynthesis in mixotrophs (which combine photosynthesis and bacterivory) leading to purely heterotrophic lineages. Further, we show in what
conditions an heterotroph mutant can coexist, or even out-compete, its mixotrophic ancestor, suggesting that bacterivory and cell size reduction may have been major triggers for the diversification of eukaryotes.
Our results suggest that, provided the mixotroph's photosynthetic advantage is not too large, the (small) heterotroph will also dominate in nutrient-poor environments and will readily invade a community of mixotrophs and bacteria, due to its higher efficiency exploiting the ultramicrobacteria. As carbon-limited conditions were presumably widespread throughout Earth history, such a scenario may explain the numerous transitions from phototrophy to mixotrophy and further to heterotrophy within virtually all major algal lineages. We challenge prevailing concepts that affiliated the evolution of phagotrophy with eutrophic or strongly light-limited environments only.

Captain Kidd's treasure. The Holy Grail. Lost Shakespearian manuscripts. Whatever lies under Nova Scotia's Oak Island, it's buried in 210 years of mystery. In 1975, a 16-year-old boy found a strange depression and began digging. To this day, searchers are still trying to outwit a complex tunnel system that floods the pit when they venture too deep. Theories abound on what's hidden there and who hid it.
Speculation is further fuelled by onsite discoveries, including a tablet claiming the pit contains 2 million British pounds, a Spanish coin dated 1598 and coconut fibres from faraway lands. Six have died in the "Money Pit" since 1975.

A basic sign of a false prophet is his word will go against the Word of God
Q. Based on your last article about false prophecy, how can you tell whether someone is a false prophet?
A. The basic sign of a false prophet is his word will go against the Word of God. But, that is also where the problem lies because many people do not know the Word of God correctly and have never been taught the Scriptures so they don't know enough to test the words of a so-called prophecy.
But, it is possible to know the Scriptures and to be taught correctly so it is on that basis that I will proceed with how it is done.
I'm going to use several Scriptures as my basis and so let's start. There are basically two things that will tell if a person is a false prophet. First, does his word contradict the Scriptures and secondly if his predictions come true or not.
So, let's look at the first test, whether his word contradicts the Scriptures. Deut 13.1-5 says "If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder and the sign or wonder comes true, concerning which he spoke to you, saying 'let us go after other gods whom you have not known and let us serve them,' you shall not listen to the word of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God is testing (examining) you to find out if you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
"You shall follow the Lord your God and fear Him; and you shall keep his commandments, listen to his voice, serve Him, and cling to Him. But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has counseled rebellion against the Lord your God who brought you from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery, to seduce you from the way in which the Lord your God commanded you to walk. So you shall purge the evil from among you."
In this passage, the Lord is saying that if a prophet or a dreamer comes forward with a word to depart from the ways of God (v5) and shows a sign or a wonder, you are not to listen to what he says.
In fact, God will cause this to happen to test you to see if you will follow the sign or wonder, or follow the Word of God.
You do not follow anyone or their words if it contradicts the Scriptures, no matter what sign they give.
An example of a false prophecy can be found in 1 Kings 13.18.
In this passage, God told a prophet to do a certain thing and another prophet came along and told him that God told him that he didn't have to do it. The first prophet was deceived and he died.
True prophecy cannot be annulled by another prophet unless the first prophet hears directly from the Lord that it was.
Another verse that goes along the same lines can be found in Isa 8.20 where it reads "To the Law (Torah) and to the testimonies (prophets). If they do not speak according to this word it is because they have no light (understanding)."
In Acts 17.10-11 it says that the Bereans were "more noble than those in Thessalonica for they received the word (which Paul spoke) with great eagerness, examining daily, to see whether these things were true." They did not rely on some "oral law" passed down from the rabbis but checked the Word of God.
And the Word they were checking was the Tanak, or "old" testament. Everything Paul taught was out of the Tanak and it could be verified by the Tanak, and that's what we need to do when confronted with anyone's teaching, check it out. Unfortunately, many have been taught wrong doctrine and that needs to be straightened out before they will be able to test anything.
The second thing used to test a false prophet is whether what they say comes to pass or not. Deut 18. 21-22 says "And you may say in your heart,' how shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?'
"When a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the thing does not come about or come true, that is the thing which the Lord has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him." So, if the person prophesies in the name of the Lord and the event does not come true or come about, then he is a false prophet. Now, notice he does it "in the name of the Lord" and that is important. Nobody has all the answers and we see through a glass dimly so we aren't always right about some of our interpretations, but that doesn't make us a false prophet. A false prophet will say that the "Lord has shown me", or has "told me to say" something and if it isn't true, then he is false. Yeshua had these things in mind when he discussed false prophets in Mt 17.10-11 where he says "Beware of the false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwaredly are ravenous wolves. You shall know them by their fruits.
Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes, nor figs from thistles, are they? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit; but a rotten tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a rotten tree produce good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. So, then, you will know them by their fruits" What Yeshua is saying here is that a tree is a person and the fruit is their doctrine.
A good tree, or a believer, will have sound doctrine and an unbeliever will have corrupt doctrine. So, how can you know? You have to test their doctrines by the Scriptures. External works is not really the intent of "fruits" here otherwise a false prophet can appear righteous outwardly. But the true prophet will be true to the Word of God and a false prophet can't.
In conclusion, there are two tests for a false prophet. First, check to see if what they say lines up with the Word of God (Deut 13.1-5; Isa 8.20) no matter what sign or wonders happens to occur. Remember, the false prophet may perform many signs and wonders but he wants you to follow the sign and not the Word of God. Secondly, if a person makes a prediction in the name of the Lord and it does not come to pass, then the Lord did not speak. So, in short, check what a person says by the Word of God and disregard any signs or wonders. A sign or a wonder just calls attention to what the person is saying and check the event, if it occurs or not. These are two basic ways to test for false prophets.

A Scoop of Inspiration
I went on a chocolate tour of Denver yesterday, because, like most women, I adore chocolate. Yet, while we savored yummy sweets all day, we visited one business where the treats we ate also helped feed the hungry. Little Man Ice Cream believes that all businesses exist to make a difference. They fulfill that purpose with their "Scoop for Scoop" program. For every scoop of ice cream they sell, they donate one scoop of rice to hungry villages in third world countries, such as Ethiopia, Myanmar and Senegal. They purchase those food donations locally in those countries, so that they're also contributing to the economy. Not only that, but Little Man's owner, Paul Tamburello, hand delivers the donations to the villages, to cut out any middle-man costs. This ensures that he's directly donating a scoop for a scoop! I've never before felt so moved while licking a delicious scoop of chocolate mocha chip ice cream. http://littlemanicecream.com/

Sowing & reaping
Regular readers of my blog will know that I quite enjoy the process of growing food. That there is much to learn from the process, and it often brings up unexpected results and analogies. Here's another.
Last year I planted a great deal of herbs. These included basil, mint and oregano. But I had a very frustrating year. In fact, I lost more than 90% of my plants due to the heavy rain and relative increase in insects who seemed to gobble them up as soon as they sprouted. Which I would rather have happen, than use pesticides. But it did annoy me. It annoyed me to the point, where this year I didn't bother. I didn't plant any seeds for my summer herbs. I was cranky and decided it wasn't worth the effort. Until yesterday, when I noticed that nature has been far more generous this year.
Without any attention, effort or otherwise, 3 little basil plants popped up, in good health.
I was pretty stoked for getting something for nothing, until I realised it was simply a delayed reaction. In fact, last year I put in a lot of effort for very little return, and this year I quit. Turns out I quit too early. Imagine the yield I would have received with just a little more effort than none at all? It would have been a bumper crop (as far as you can have a bumper crop in four pots on a decking).
There are a couple of clear take outs for me:
- Nature doesn't work to our timeline, it has its own.
- Yield is not always seasonal.
- We eventually reap all that we sow.

Top 10 financial hacks
There is no point being a successful entrepreneur, or selling a startup if we have no idea how to handle the money we get. So here is my top 10 financial life hacks.
- Spend less than you earn, no matter what that amount is. The net result is happiness.
- Allocate cash to savings & investments before anything the day you get your profits, pay or dividends.
- Never go into debt for anything which does not appreciate in value.
- The real definition of an Asset: Anything that puts money in your pocket. The accounting definition of an asset is flawed.
- Do not trade stocks. Trading makes the broker and tax man rich and you poor.
- The greatest financial instrument is 'compounding'. It only happens when we hold assets, not by trading them.
- If you can't afford a consumer product in cash, you can't afford it.
- There is no such thing as 'financial engineering'. It was invented by Wall street to trick you.
- The best type of share investment is an Index Fund. They are investments in civilization. If that fails, we have bigger worries than our money.
- Invest more in education than entertainment & 'things' and you will outdo society financially.
Imaginative work
I read a great quote today which I thought was worth sharing:
"There is a recognition dawning that the repetitive linear system which controls work and the worker is no longer profitable. Consequently, the presence of the soul is now welcome in the workplace. The soul is welcome because it is the place where the imagination lives."
What I like about this is the reference to profit, and that linear systematic work isn't profitable. If I think about every startup I've ever been involved with the real profit has come from the excitement and variety of the work. Internal profit rather than financial. And so my soul has been enriched.
Everything to everyone
We live in a wordy world. It seems there's a new acronym, piece of business jargon, or self defining adjective emerging every minute of the day. It's easy to get caught up in the language, the jargon and forget what business and startups are all about:
Building stuff. Buying something for $1 and selling it for $2. Having a laugh along the way.
Keep it simple. Don't try and be everything to everyone.
With all this in mind I'll hand over to George Carlin – and yes, this video is worth every second of the 3.56 minutes it takes to watch.
Quirky Fact & Business models
It costs the soft drink Industry over $100 million a year for thefts committed involving vending machines.
*actual Coke vending robots!
Yet vending machines still exist for one simple reason. This is still a profitable business regardless of the theft.
So often in startup land we here people pointing out the gaps and potential issues in any business model we propose. The fact is no business model is perfect. Every business has gaps and potential issues which will impact profitability. There is always leakage, there is always some evaporation. What we need to focus on is the net result and understand if we can still make a profit regardless of the model imperfections.
Industrial Tourism
Industrial Tourism is big business. It's a little know fact the Boeing factory in Seattle has over 180,000 visitors a year. At $15 a ticket that is approx $2.7 million in high margin revenue.
Local Australia firm fosters brewing has a popular brewery tour at their Melbourne plant (you get a free beer at the end of it) as does Media conglomerate NBC in the Rockerfella Centre in New York. None of this is free, and they are all fully booked pretty much every day. The thing that is almost as powerful as the cash such Industrial Tourism generates, is the relationship it builds with the brand.
It is pretty cool to be taken into the 'secret back room', even though we can all be pretty sure that Boeing or any large conglomerate are not about to give away any secrets on said tours. But this is where startups and SME's can do it even better. We can let our early adopters into our Factory, Alpha testing, Retail back room, Warehouse, New Product Development session. We can let them expose our secret goodness to the market for us. Especially if we do something awesome like make great software, use recycled materials or anything creative.
So the question for startups is this: How can we let our early adopters and brand evangalists into our secret world to spread our world?

Quirky fact: Boring = Profitable
Unless you are from the US – you have never even heard of any of the 10 oldest businesses in the USA. Nope, not one. There's not a sexy brand among them. They include boring industries like, banking, ingredients, manufacturing inputs and insurance.
You can check it out by clicking here.
The important insight for Start Ups and investors is this:
The boring stuff is almost always more profitable than the sexy.
Why: Because exciting, sexy stuff attracts lot's of competitors and people want to play there. They want to play there because it's fun, it's in the papers, it's featured in business forums and leverages over-riding social trends. Then it gets busy and the cream disappears – (read here abnormal economic profits) . It's no different to the house prices rising in popular suburbs and the yield declining. Simple economics discovered centuries ago.
So what? It's vital we know the difference between sustainable & exciting. The most important factor for survivial is profit – end of story. Sure, profits can be made in any industry, but chances are there's more profit in the areas everyone else forgot about.

Game of the week – Battle Cry. Now available in a special expanded 150th Civil War Anniversary Edition, Battle Cry is a classic war game designed by Richard Borg, and was the first game to introduce the card-driven battle systems used in his later hit games Memoir '44, Battlelore and Command & Colours. The new version of the game has 30 scenarios to play through to recreate famous events from the US Civil War. To find out if this might be a game for you, check out Marco Arnaudo's (from 2D6.org) video review.
Dice Tower's Top 100 of 2012 – its that time of year again! Tom Vasel has started his 8th annual top 100 boardgames overview. Check out the introduction to his 2012 rundown here. Like us I'm sure loads of you will be watching the updates over the next few weeks, and trying to guess what Tom's number 1 game will be this year.
Cuboid Jealousy – we really, really, really want some of the new Story Cube cushions that the lovely people at Coiledspring Games have had made for Cheltenham Literature Festival. Any Friday Rules readers handy at a bit of needlework??
Indie Roleplaying - we have another shipment of US indie RPG books coming in shortly.

.. and the Demise of the Games Master – GeekNative have posted an interesting article by Joe Prince, commenting on the rise of GM-less RPGs, and what this means for the future of roleplaying. While the success of systems such as Fiasco have provided new opportunities for time-poor roleplayers, and been pushing innovation in story-telling, we have a sneaking suspicion that the 'traditional' GM will be around for a while longer yet.

Loveturds! You're with someone for so long you think there's no one else; you think, selfishly, you've spent so much time with this person and they're not a horrible person…You love this person, why not marry this person? You get married, you have kids, years pass by and you've progressed to so many stages of life, giving up, checking out, isn't a question. And your wedding dress wouldn't fit anymore and the kids wiped their butts all by themselves. Maybe there aren't problems, so why would it be a question? But what if there were problems? Serious problems you refused to see until it was too late.
For some, there was a time you thought this person gives me something, makes me feel something I wouldn't have on my own. I personally hope you don't feel this way, that you need someone like an infant needs a mother because if you're married with children, odds are you're an adult, and you shouldn't need anyone anymore. For others, maybe you don't want to be alone. I also personally hope you don't feel this way either because that's another way of saying you're bored. Maybe you need someone else to distract you from yourself. Someone else needs me for once. "Need" I say it? I once again personally hope you don't feel this way, even though I understand it.
I could wake up next to me every day and not get tired of me. I love me and I always have and I always will. "I think I'm falling in love with me." "I make me feel safe."
Since I can remember I cherished alone time. To play by myself, to play with myself. I would get excited to go to bed not tired, because it meant alone time to my thoughts. I can't stand needy friends who get mad when yes, I turned down your invitation about spending time together because I'd rather spend it alone. I'd choose me over you any day of the week.
Selfish? Vain? No one who knows me would describe me in any such terms. I love people but I'm not in love with people, whatever that means.
Last year People Magazine featured Joyce Carol Oates's memoire "A Widow's Story." I thought it strange that the article stated that shortly after her husband's death, she remarried. My favorite author, my obsession, my can-do-no-wrong almost to the degree of my own mom, was over seventy years old and remarrying. As if it was so great the first time. I started reading her memoire because I couldn't resist, but I didn't finish because it was the most disappointing piece of work. Oates wanted to kill herself when her husband passed away. She kept saying, "I survived." As much as I adore her and gobble her fiction like candy, what did you expect, Oatesy? People die. That's what you get for having just one person in your life you consider to be important. If you haven't read Oates, her stance on women and social issues is paramount. I can't think of a more important writer. And then she plays victim to the biggest scam in human history.
But I still think she's great. If I were anti-marriage I'd be anti-three-fourths of the people I know. Snapped and Who the Bleep Did I Marry are some of the most addicting shows on television. Many of the most well-known horror films deal with the subject of heterosexual marriage (The Shining, What Lies Beneath, The Stepford Wives, Splice). Marriage, especially long-term, is scary. Desperate people scare me. It would be nice if we could all agree that funerals and weddings are the most expensive traditions and both aren't really altogether necessary. No qualms with Valentine's Day though; I'm talking about marriage, not love and affection.
During the first six months of dating, a hormone is released that causes feelings of ecstasy and euphoria. To make a life-altering decision such as marriage while on ecstasy is no good.
And now we have E-Harmony for those who tried and failed. Because we all know relationships are about finding someone based on your criteria, who will be a perfect fit for you, like a shoe or another "you." Of course, these sites are typically for those who are too old for bars or school or extensive social scenes. But the idea that finding a "soul mate" is possible, and that now a program does the work for you, is the blossoming of another failure.
Sometimes I wonder if this is a waste of my time. I'm not talking about genocide or starvation or global warming. No one's died by getting married. No one's a victim and no one's a victor. Marriage is part of the package we think we need in order to be happy, but happiness, as we all know, is a complicated, borderline fantastical phenomena.
Not too long ago, in the 70s, some grandmothers might have informed their daughters that they shouldn't live alone after college, that it, "looked bad," and so the daughter was pressured into marrying someone she didn't know very well at all. And it was a nightmare.
Have things changed?
Choose your boobie shirts and heels you wear to class because that's where you'll find a mate; that's why you're here; that's why you're getting an education; act like I'm exaggerating; act like that's not why you're not trying harder.

My Lips..your cheek
The Scarlet Goodbye
His name rolled off of her tongue as casually as the air that had just crept past her painted lips.
Funny, there was nothing casual about him...or them for that matter.
Every glance, Every conversation was a formality.
Their eyes danced in a well thought out pattern, a choreographed routine.
Even their hugs were stiff, quick and dressed up.
Though seemingly fake, her feelings were so alive.
Her body staged robotic movement to conceal the wild rhythm of her heart.
She knew how to calm her emotions and maintain a quiet companionship.
Well...She used to anyway....
After becoming better acquainted, the thickness in the air around them began to thin.
She fell for him, destroying their unwritten contract to remain just friends.
He froze, ingnoring her outburst of unexpected emotion.
Everytime she auctioned her heart,
He crossed his arms over his chest hoping to quiet the bids crying out from beneathe his skin.
She was too simple.
Too accessible.
She was there for his taking, but not what he wanted.
So he turned his back to her completely.
Leaving her with nothing, not even their tight, yet comfortable, friendship.
Her frostbit fingertips stopped tapping his ice cold shoulder.
He wouldn't turn to her, or warm to her touch.
In one last attempt to steal his affection,
She stood right in front of him burning a feirce stare into his distant eyes.
A solitary tear slid down her face as she pressed her painted lips against his cheek.
Leaving the mark of a Scarlet GoodBye.

This is me with the words on the tip of my tongue....
Here i sit, alone of course.
i'm wearing a disgusting long sleeved hurley shirt that has holes and stains all over it.
i refuse to get rid of it
Why?? because it once belonged to my ~j.f.~ and lately it's the closest i can get to him.
i'm a disgrace. i drove past his house last night and
yep, quite aware that i'm a loser. why can't i let him go?? why am i in love with someone i will NEVER, in all my life, have?? i hate myself for my uncontrollable emotional attachment to him. for the past 7-8-9 months i have been lying to myself and all my friends.
"i don't see him that way anymore," i say.
i'm a
i DO see him that way. my heart belongs to him...he owns it and he's well aware of it.
and then there's ~e.h.~...who i could totally fall for, if he let me and i let him. he's amazing. our kiss was
he made me dizzy for days afterwards and then left me hanging by the taste of lips...i could punch him for his repeated promise...
me: ~e.h.~ promise me you won't disappear again. i might miss you...alot.
him: i won't
me: say it again
him: i won't
me: one more time
him: i won't
me: *smiles* okay that's enough
(5 solid minutes of embracing goes by)
him: hey ~a.i.~?
me: yeah?
him: i won't
*melt to the floor*
um yeah...he lied. so i'm back to last summer again....still in love with my high school flame and still experiencing occasional, yet intense, butterflies with mr. maybe.
i'm exhausted.
