Product Description
"As you seek spiritual knowledge, search for principles," counsels Elder Richard G. Scott. "Principles are concentrated truth, packaged for application to a wide variety of circumstances."
In this exciting book, Elder Scott offers 21 principles distilled from his life experiences. These "concentrated truths" will help you understand more fully how to be guided by the Spirit. Elder Scott's brief explanations open the way for your own discovery and exploration.
"I bear witness that Jesus Christ knows you personally," Elder Scott writes. "He will provide answers to every difficult problem in your life as you trust Him and do all you can to understand and apply His doctrine and strive to live by the Spirit." 21 Principles will be a valuable tool in that quest.

About the Author
Elder Richard G. Scott, was called as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in October 1988. He had served in the First Quorum of the Seventy since 1977 and was a member of the presidency of that quorum for five years. He holds a B.S. degree in mechanical engineering and completed post-graduate work in nuclear engineering. Prior to his call as a General Authority, he worked on the staff of Admiral Hyman Rickover developing military and private nuclear power reactors. Elder Scott and his wife, Jeanene Watkins Scott (deceased), are the parents of seven children.
Principle 1
Communication with our Father in Heaven is not a trivial matter. It is a sacred privilege. It is based upon eternal, unchanging principles. We receive help from our Father in Heaven in response to our faith, obedience, and the proper use of agency.
One of the great lessons that each of us needs to learn is to ask. Why does the Lord want us to pray to Him and to ask? Because that is how revelation is received.
When I am faced with a very difficult matter, this is how I try to understand what to do. I fast. I pray to find and understand scriptures that will be helpful. That process is cyclical. I start reading a passage of scripture; I ponder what the verse means and pray for inspiration. I then ponder and pray to know if I have captured all the Lord wants me to do. Often more impressions come with increased understanding of doctrine. I have found that pattern to be a good way to learn from the scriptures.
There are some practical principles that enhance revelation. First, yielding to emotions such as anger or hurt or defensiveness will drive away the Holy Ghost. Those emotions must be overcome, or our chance for receiving revelation is slight.
Another principle is to be cautious with humor. Loud, inappropriate laughter will offend the Spirit. A good sense of humor helps revelation; loud laughter does not. A sense of humor is an escape valve for the pressures of life.
Another enemy to revelation comes from exaggeration or loudness in what is stated. Careful, quiet speech will favor the receipt of revelation.
On the other side of the equation, spiritual communication can be enhanced by good health practices. Exercise, reasonable amounts of sleep, and good eating habits increase our capacity to receive and understand revelation. We will live for our appointed life span. However, we can improve both the quality of our service and our well-being by making careful, appropriate choices.
For spirituality to grow stronger and more available, it must be planted in a righteous environment. It is important that our daily activities do not distract us from listening to the Spirit. Haughtiness, pride, and conceit are like stony ground that will never produce spiritual fruit.
Humility is a fertile soil where spirituality grows and produces the fruit of inspiration to know what to do. It gives access to divine power to accomplish what must be done. An individual motivated by a desire for praise or recognition will not qualify to be taught by the Spirit. An individual who is arrogant or who lets his or her emotions influence decisions will not be powerfully led by the Spirit.
The Lord has declared: "And ye are to be taught from on high. Sanctify yourselves and ye shall be endowed with power, that ye may give even as I have spoken" (Doctrine and Covenants 43:16). The words sanctify yourselves may appear puzzling. President Harold B. Lee once explained that you can replace those words with the phrase "keep my commandments" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Harold B. Lee 2000, 34). Read that way, the counsel may seem clearer.
One must be ever mentally and physically clean and have purity of intent so that the Lord can inspire. One who is obedient to His commandments is trusted of the Lord. That individual has access to His inspiration to know what to do and, as needed, the divine power to do it.
Detailed direction comes when we readily respond to the initial promptings of the Spirit. At times such spiritual guidance can indicate or imply events that will occur later in life. Our acceptance of such promptings and our willingness to obey do not mean that the will of the Lord will be changed. They do mean that the impact on our life will be different. There will be far more significant consequence because of our willingness to obey the counsel given by such sacred guidance of the Holy Spirit.
When we are acting as instruments in behalf of others, we are more easily inspired than when we think only of ourselves. In the process of helping others, the Lord can piggyback directions for our own benefit.
Our Heavenly Father did not put us on earth to fail but to succeed gloriously. It may seem paradoxical, but that is why recognizing answers to prayer can sometimes be very difficult. Sometimes we unwisely try to face life by depending on our own experience and capacity. It is much wiser for us to seek through prayer and divine inspiration to know what to do. Our obedience assures that, when required, we can qualify for divine power to accomplish an inspired objective.
positive and simple principles to make great changes
by Jennifer - reviewed on April 17, 2013
I enjoyed reading this book because it was very positive and had simple principles that I can easily apply in my life. Elder Scott uses some of the stories he has used in various General Conferences, and some new ones. It is helpful to have his personal insight of how to apply these principles. It can be a "quick read", but is also one that allows you to read a chapter at a time to think and ponder what is being taught and how to apply it. These are not new ideas, but very needed and simple to make "great" changes in ones life. I especially enjoyed reading the chapters about the roles of men, and the roles women.
Wonderful Read!
by Anne - reviewed on March 22, 2013
This is a perfect companion to Elder Scott's other book, "Finding Peace, Happiness, and Joy. We are taught how enlightening life can be if we live obediently. Thus, allowing us a life full of the Spirit and a life blessed with the blessings we are promised. A wonderful read!
Inspirational and motivational!
by Stephanie - reviewed on May 24, 2013
As we seek for spiritual knowledge and growth we are searching for principles to guide us along our way. Elder Richard G. Scott of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles calls these principles "concentrated truth, packaged for application to a wide variety of circumstances. A true principle makes decisions clear even under the most confusing and challenging circumstances." Elder Scott has put forth tremendous effort to gather all of the principles he has learned and provide them for our personal study... He continues, "Principles are anchors of safety...They will help you have confidence in new and unfamiliar circumstances. They will provide you protection in life's storms of adversity." We can reach worthy goals and objectives when we stick closely to correct principles and this book can provide a starting point in your personal scripture study! There are, obviously, 21 Principles of study each with scriptural truth, historical background, personal stories, and how to follow this principle in todays world. One of the best parts? Each chapter ends with a real awesome "you can do this" pep talk! Not to be missed: The Conclusion. It is Elder Scott's testimony - don't skip this part! It is humbling and motivating. This was a great read!
Every single sentence has something to teach.
by Sierra - reviewed on April 08, 2013
I HIGHLY recommend this book. I read it straight through cover to cover, but it definitely warrants more careful and deliberate study. Every single sentence has something to teach. I think this is an invaluable tool for learning how the Spirit speaks to us individually and suggestions on being more receptive and aware of the promptings we receive to guide and direct our choices and life.
What an inspirational book!!!
by Coralie - reviewed on April 11, 2013
Elder Scott helps you to see things through and through..so many insights to one thought, and he gives so many! It helps a person to actually understand our choices On a whole new level. Full of great thoughts to incorporate into our daily lives. Truly "rich" and thought provoking. Well worth rereading again and again.
Power Packed with Truth
by Heather - reviewed on May 22, 2013
Richard G. Scott shares the most important truths he was learned in life in his newest title 21 Truths. each chapter outlines a principle to ponder and adopt. As an artist who often feels the pull of being creative juxtaposed with trying the same things over and over again, I truly appreciated Principle 3 "Repeatedly I have been impressed to learn that to reach a goal never before attained, one must do things never before done." Elder Scott talks about how on a visit to a close friend he was fascinated with his ability to create beauty using brushes, watercolor and paint, and had the impression "Try it." He did just that, and the cover of his book is a print of one of his watercolor paintings. When I noticed the signature on the dust jacket I felt uplifted and encouraged to go out on a limb. This book is power packed with sound advice and the way to apply it in our lives. If applies with prayer and perseverance these principles will set your life on the right course. I would recommend it for a Father's Day gift!
by Shauna - reviewed on May 01, 2013
This book is so POWERFUL! Elder Scott teaches: "As you seek spiritual knowledge, search for principles. Principles are concentrated truth, packaged for application to a wide variety of circumstances." Here are a few of the principles taught in the book: Access personal revelation Act upon that revelation Accept God's will Understand that adversity is a necessary part of life Hold true to correct principle Value the sanctity of womanhood Personal stories help illustrate each principle... My favorite is the story of where Elder Scott took 100 little circles and wrote a message one word at a time to his wife. Then he scooped them up and put them in an envelope hoping to get a laugh from his wife. After his wife passed away Elder Scott found these little circles carefully pasted onto a page where the message could be enjoyed over and over again. You can just feel the love Elder Scott has for his wife. Each principle if studies and applied will bring you greater happiness. Elder Scott ends with this powerful testimony: "I testify that as you are prayerful and seek the guidance of the Spirit, you can identify over a period of time important things the Lord wants you to accomplish....There may be some challenging growth experiences and some sadness, but your life will be crowned with success and joy." A truly wonderful book!
by Loretta - reviewed on April 09, 2013
I read this book through the course of several days and was inspired by all the messages. A reviewer before me expressed a feeling I had throughout the book: every sentence is full of inspiration and help to all who are seeking to live a life directed by the Spirit. I plan to read it again and ponder each of the principles set forth by this wonderful apostle who lives as he writes.
Excellent Insight on finding your path in life.
by Jess - reviewed on April 05, 2013
I just finished reading this and all I can say is--Talk about a wonderful collection of some of the most powerful lessons ever shared by Elder Scott. This book is very timely in that he addresses a question many face, "How can I make the right decisions for myself and live a full life?" 21 principles helps you find ways to discover the answers for yourself. Using wonderful examples from his own life, Elder Scott brings wonderful guidance that is applicable to anyone's circumstance. You have a divine path. If you exercise your agency by choosing to include the Spirit in your life using the principles taught in this book, I promise that you'll feel added power to do what is right and you will find the answers that you are seeking after.

It's a hard knock life for a Nürburgring rental car
Rental cars get no respect. They're abused, misused and flogged mercilessly as athletes in Rental Car Olympics. And that's just at your everyday airport rental counter. The torture gets extreme for rental cars thrashed around Germany's infamous Nürburgring.
Rent4Ring expects its customers to drive its cars around the 'Ring with enthusiasm and, in some cases, less skill than the pros. Rent4Ring just recently retired its Suzuki Swift Sport from its fleet and shared the car's two-year-plus lifetime highlights.
The little hatchback made more than 2,800 laps of the 'Ring over three seasons amounting to more than 500,000 kilometres (310,000 miles) driven by 457 different drivers. "Some were fast, some were slow. Some were nice to the car, a few were frankly awful," says a Rent4Ring rep.
One of those drivers pegged the tachometer at a record (for this Swift, at least) 8761 rpm. The car did about 600 hours of spirited driving, and endured 168,000 gear changes for 180 million engine revolutions.
All that lead-foot levity came at the cost of only two clutches, 27 front brake pads, three brake fluid flushes, a new wheel bearing, a new alternator and battery, 52 Toyo 888 tires and four Goodyear Eagle F1s. About 1,847 gallons of 98-octane go juice.
To the Suzuki's credit, Rent4Ring says the car was never mechanically broken or crashed. Not only does it still drive like new, it still dyno's at 133bhp. The car isn't being scrapped or stuck on a used car lot somewhere but instead was bought by a Rent4Ring customer and should get several more Nürburgring laps before it goes to that big garage in the sky.

West-leaning appetites are sated with entrees including a seafood alfredo pasta or hot panini, while Eastbound palates can opt for pork fried rice or a curry rice dish. The customizable meals let diners express themselves via choices of rice or pasta, buttered corn or mixed vegetables, a trio of three savory meats, and drizzlings of black pepper, mushroom, or garlic sauce. A generous 24-ounce glass of 1 of 14 different types of iced tea pairs the intricately spiced entrees with exotic flavors such as lychee and plum, and the green boba milk tea lets diners take swift midmeal sips of dairy-infused liquid without toting along their own zip-locked bags of nacho cheese.
The cooks at A&J Hot Point Hot Pot lay the foundation of a delicious, belly-warming meal—the broth—at your table. The rest of the work, they leave to you. The soup remains at a simmer while you submerge the ingredients of your choice, ranging from meats to a variety of veggies. As you dip these morsels into the stew, it simultaneously cooks and flavors them in traditional Chinese dining style.
The broth menu itself is international in scope. Choices range from a Mongolian herbal mix to soups tinged with Korean kimchi and Japanese coconut curry. Some, such as the hot and spicy or spicy chicken broth, add additional fire. Guests dunk unlimited bites into the hot pot during all-you-can-eat lunches and dinners, then balance out the heat with a dessert of ice cream or a nice bowl of cold broth.
Chef Shi Peng might be a bit more attached to his knife than the average chef, but that's to be expected since he made its blade himself. And it's carried him through 25 years of carving dao xiao mian, the thick knife-cut noodle that pervades JTYH Restaurant's popular dishes.
The easiest way to order at Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant is to simply point. The Mandarin-speaking staff uses a photographic menu—a divergence from standard dim sum carts—but that doesn't make the traditional dumplings, pork ribs, and shu mai taste any less delicious.
Since its modest beginnings as a three-table Arcadia eatery, Starlight Express Chinese Food has expanded into an Old Town Monrovia venue packed with a large dining area, a steam table of quick-serve Chinese favorites, and an array of cooked-to-order specialties. Inside the kitchen, chefs prepare shrimp with black-bean sauce alongside plates of spicy kung pao scallops and sweet-and-sour chicken. The chefs' healthier steamed-veggie dishes fill niches in low-sodium diets. Blue pendant lamps light dining-room tables, and red paper fans and framed Chinese characters adorn the walls, with translations meaning "luck," "dragon," and "remember to buy eggs."

Hi... I have a Rose of Sharon plant that I bought in On. and the instructions that came with it were to water deeply and winterize it if it has wind exposure. I was planning to wrap in burlap and hay or straw for the winter. Can anyone guess at the chances of survival? Any help will be appreciated.Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have tried several times to overwinter a Rose of Sharon. We live in a very open, windy area and I think it was the harsh winds that killed them. Same with Buddleia. Last year I even mulched with straw and put some insulation around it -- that didn't work either. This year I am trying again and this time I planted a seedling beside my greenhouse in the garden where it will get some shelter from the winds. Keeping my fingers crossed. I have had luck growing them from seed inside and even winter sowing seeds. I have 7 more that I will overwinter in the garage. Marg |

I have ws a few different colours and I found this spring that the wine coloured one did not do well in wind nor too much sun.I had wine, blue, pink and white all in the same location. The rest did well and when I moved the wine one to a more sheltered location it has done well also. What colour is yours? |
Over the years I had no luck overwintering Hibiscus Syricus until a seedling I grew from seed was planted beside my deck and so in a sheltered corner facing soutwest. I was surprised to see it bloom last summer, a light purple. Again this season it has grown taller and had many more blooms on it. So the secret is placement, out of wind and of course lots of snow cover (from clearing deck). I wonder if the colder Zones of Alberta will be a factor in it's demise even when well protected? |

I was wondering about the colder zones of Alberta too Sharon, and even the fact that it is much dryer. Here in Nova Scotia I see them even in expose areas. My DM has two on her property that are well over 7 feet and they are exposed to some mean nor'easters in the winter without any protection along her driveway. Both were stems she brought back from BC a few years back. They are gorgeous in bloom. I have one facing southeast against the house. It is about to bloom. This year is the first year the deers haven't chomped it. I left the remnants of a Dame's Rocket plant right in the front of it to discourage them. It is about six feet. I do not protect it for the winter in any way. They do leaf out a bit later than other plants, just about the same time as the Buddleias, so don't give them up too early. |
Reading over the postings, I realized my placement is in fact southeast, between deck and brick wall of house. One of my earlier attempts of overwintering a Rose of Sharon shrub,placement was in the southwest corner of the same deck. It did not survive the winds and snow build up. I gave it several months to grow in that spot but it did not approve or improve and dwindled away. My next experiment is to place this years' seedlings in 2009 on the northeast corner approx 20ft from house between a mugho pine and hibiscus moscheutos which are also slow to emerg in spring. But most important, the dozen small seedlings may or may not survive the plunge bed this winter! Sharon |

I grow several cultivars of hibiscus coccineus, syriacus and moscheutos and they carry through in my supposed zone 3b gardens with no trouble. In my experience I noticed they only do well in drained soil with as little spring moisture as possible. They detest wet feet, and most cultivars act as herbacious perennials. They started flowering for me about a week ago and all are in bud that are not in bloom. They are fed with a manure tea until the beginning of August and flourish with this mixture. I will be starting the seeds that are produced this year and am trying them in other remote parts of the property to determine their hardiness. |

I have several Rose of Sharon buds that are getting ready to bloom, they were white with a red throat last year, so don't know if they are going to be the same color or not, but here is the buds that are Uploaded with ImageShack.us starting to open. |

I live in Canada in a city in Ontario. I believe that I am in Zone 6. I have had Rose of Sharon at my home for a couple of decades. I have pink, purple and white with a red throat, but one day one of my seedlings turned out to have a white bloom with a white throat. My backyard has too much shade and root competition and the Rose of Sharons there have been slow to grow, but my pink one is mature. I also have three Rose of Sharons at the side of my house, located against my brick wall and close to my neighbor's property. It is there that they grow beautifully, with abundant blooms, beginning early. There is a huge difference between these Rose of Sharon and the ones in my backyard. I have determined that the Rose of Sharons require at least several hours of sun or more and a sheltered spot is ideal. I have been growing Rose of Sharon from seed and have found that the shrub will produce blooms in the third year of growth. But last year I decided to take two cuttings from my friend's double Rose of Sharon (hibiscus syriacus). It turned out to be an interesting experiment. Both cuttings "took" and I overwintered the cuttings in my house. Early spring they developed dust mites. When it was warm enough to put them outside in their pots, I did that. They were sprayed for the dust mites. I think the pesticide was too strong for the plant and the leaves curled up. But I proceeded to nuture them! This is what amazed me: the cuttings are quite small (maybe 10 inches high and one of them has buds on it! Now mind you the leaves still don't look that great, but I looking forward to seeing the bloom. My conclusion: much better to take cuttings. I am thinking that by next year the leaves should look "normal." |
Have grown ROS for many years and never had problems in winter in the open or slightly sheltered and seedlings come up every year all over the place. |

I just came across this post and thought I would relate my experience. My DH collected some ROS seeds when visiting his cousin in Nantucket. I winter sowed them, got 4 seedlings and planted them all in different locations last spring. I mulched them and they all survived the winter well, but this was a drought year for us, and all but one suffered. The healthier plant received supplemental watering, is near our, and shed has had only two blooms, white with a burgundy throat and it is a double. The others survived but are smaller and would have received no supplemental watering. So it seems they will flower in the second year if sheltered and watered well. I am hoping they will all perform well next year. I am in Ontario, Zone 5A. |
I have some new cuttings and seedlings that have rooted but I feel they do not have enough time to acclimatize for the winter. Would it be a good idea to plant many in a deep tray or pot in a cold garage which approaches the freezing point, to give them more of a chance to survive or plant them in a sheltered area outside to take the -20C -25C in Zone 5B |
Andr: I finally did get mine to overwinter and now have about 6 of them. I started mine from seed and overwintered them in a pot that I sank into the ground. They survived the first year and then I planted them out. What you need to remember is that sometimes your ROS will come up late, mine cam up the end of June the first year but this year it came up by the beginning of June. It is very open and windy here so I mulch and cage my ROS to protect from rabbits. Last year we put pea gravel around the base to help prevent vole damage. |

Camp Navajo
Fort Blogs |
Camp Navajo (1942-Present) - A U.S. Army post established in 1942 as Navajo Ordnance Depot during World War II in Bellemont, Coconino County, Arizona. It was renamed Navajo Army Depot in 1965 and Navajo Depot Activity in 1982. The post was designated Camp Navajo in 1993 and transferred to the Arizona National Guard. Active military installation.
Established during World War II as a 28,347 acre Army Depot operating as a trans-shipment point for munitions headed for the Pacific war and as a disposal activity for obsolete and deteriorated munitions.
From March 1945 through 1946 the Camp housed some 250 Austrian Prisoners of War (POW)s.
Camp Navajo is currently a multi-service training facility and provides multi-agency depot level logistic support. It is a Department of Defense facility operated by the Arizona National Guard.
The Camp is an active munitions storage site for numerous civilian and military customers and an inspectable site under the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) because of the storage of ICBM rocket motors.

Designed by Lawrence Shinoda
The 1963 Corvette coupe, the Cindy Crawford of sports cars, would be just another fair fastback without its cleft rear window. GM design boss Bill Mitchell used the thin band of bodywork to sweep his signature windsplit from the top of the windshield to the tail--and to assert his dominance over Corvette chief engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov, who hated it. (It was gone for '64.) The split rear glass was considered a radical design gesture in its day, but Corvette stylists experimented with even more extreme proposals. One sculpted in 1957 by Peter Brock, code-named the Q-Corvette, featured doors that hinged up and forward from a split windshield.

Network Services Rate Bundles Telecommunication Services
Upon review by the President's Executive Council and the Council of Academic Deans, President Pastides approved a request by University Technology Services to bundle communications services that were previously billed individually. Monthly recurring charges for telephone, fax, basic voice mail, and domestic long distance will be replaced with a new Network Services Rate. International long distance fees will still apply.
The Network Services Rate, effective July 1, 2011, does not increase UTS revenue. It combines the multiple telecommunication costs listed above into a single, annual charge that also includes network services, such as the Internet, as well as the infrastructure for campus security and safety. The change will allow UTS to better serve and sustain the future of the University network.
The FY2011-12 Network Services Rate is based on a monthly rate of $41 per FTE. It will be assessed for all USC Columbia campus departments, except areas that have employees that are paid from private sources. Student and temporary employees have been factored into the rate on a pro-rated basis.
A list of services included in the Network Services rate and FAQs are available on the UTS website at http://uts.sc.edu/administrative/rates.shtml and http://uts.sc.edu/support/faq.
For more information, please contact the UTS Business Office at 7-8053.

Hebrew Names Version (HNV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Sha'ul, Sila, and Timothy, To the assembly of the Thessalonians in God, our Father, and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah: | 1 Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: |
2 Grace to you and shalom from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah. | 2 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
3 We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you towards one another abounds; | 3 We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing. |
4 so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure. | 4 Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring. |
5 This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer. | 5 All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering. |
6 Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you, | 6 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you |
7 and to give relief to you that are afflicted with us, when the Lord Yeshua is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, | 7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. |
8 giving vengeance to those who don't know God, and to those who don't obey the Good News of our Lord Yeshua, | 8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. |
9 who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might, | 9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power |
10 when he comes to be glorified in his holy ones, and to be admired among all those who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed) in that day. | 10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you. |
11 To this end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and work of faith, with power; | 11 With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. |
12 that the name of our Lord Yeshua may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah. | 12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. |

I was recently part of a contest that required I make a home movie reviewing a toy. Although I didn't win, I had a great time making the video and, more importantly, so did C. All week he's been asking to see the footage and he cracks up watching himself on playback, in part because of the fast and slow motion effects and in part because he just thinks he's a funny guy.
That got me to thinking about what great boredom busters cameras are (both the photo and video varieties). I'm definitely whipping one out the next time it's raining and C's going stir crazy. I'm already writing a list in my mind of stuff C would enjoy watching himself do – dancing, making silly faces, counting, ABCs, singing songs, and on and on.
The first photo C ever took all on his own – a definite keepsake |

Voices of Refugees: Three refugees to tell their stories at DU event
An ethnic Nepali, Sher Mizer fled the violence of his country, Bhutan, when he was twelve years old. His family ended up in a refugee camp, where a tarp and some bamboo became their home. Mizer yearned for education, and thanks to a scholarship, he was able to study in India. Eighteen years after arriving at the refugee camp, his family came to Colorado. He and two other refugees will tell their stories tomorrow at an event called "Voices of Refugees."ACC
The event is sponsored by the African Community Center, one of Denver's refugee resettlement agencies. It will be held tomorrow at 7 p.m. at the University of Denver's Sturm Hall and will be preceded at 6 p.m. by an exhibit featuring ten refugees photographed with the most important object they brought to Colorado.
We caught up with Erin Martin, the outreach coordinator at the African Community Center, who told us a bit about the three speakers: Mizer of Bhutan, who writes beautiful poetry; Nana Mwajuma, a preschool teacher from the Congo; and Héctor Salazar Gómez, the first Mexican political asylee in Colorado. These are their stories:

Being an Internet addict, the task wasn't easy, but I did it!
24 hours of Analogue life started for me on the morning of the 8th of March, 2011.
I felt as an Orthodox Jew on day of Shabbat when looking at my electric kettle and not being able to touch it to make a cup of coffee. I decided I have to live the house straight away.
All the arrangements were made a day before- my Cosmopolitan friend was in town, and as he never has a cell phone, there was no point for me to take mine. He was supposed to meet me at 12.30 pm by the Stoke Newington station, which he surprisingly did (usually he is always so so so late!).
So, all 3 of us, including his pretty new born baby Horatio jumped into the car and went to Kew Gardens. What was the better thing to do on the International Women's day?:) Flowers all the way!
My goal was to see the Tropic Extravaganza- Kew's spectacular annual display of exotic plants.
OMG! It looked amazing!
Around 5,500 of these exotic beauties created a breathtaking spectacle in the Princess of Wales Conservatory, so called Orchid Palace. It was Kew's 15th successful year to brighten up winter with an orchid pageant. These plants from Asia, Australia, America and South America were fastened to the pillars that held up the glasshouse to make columns of colours, while others were displayed in giant bowls mounted on legs dotted among existing beds.
Yet the star exhibit was the 25ft-long metal 'island' that sits on a platform in the middle of a large pond. The base of the island, along with the three upright, 7ft-tall frames made from chicken wire, have been planted with a jazzy mixture of moth orchids (Phalaenopsis) and vanda orchids.
Amazing!!! I LOVE orchids so much!
We also walked around the gardens in search of anything in bloom, Was too late for the bluebells or snow drops though. We fed the baby Horatio with creme soup and enjoyed a glass of organic wheat beer. I also took the opportunity to photograph local ducks with the Shoot Your Prophecy rumble posters.
We did tree top walk and left the gardens very excited. I did about 5 films in 4 hours!
We drove home, gave the baby to his mother and visited the local pub. Hmmm, new sorts of ale… yummy!
I came home late and immediately went to sleep- to avoid touching my Mac Book Pro.
My dreams were Technicolor and the next morning when I woke up, I was really proud of myself.
Thanks Lomography for the task!
and, check out my lomo home for more photos!

Growth Charts
Growth charts are in the office of every pediatrician, family physician, and nutritionist. You've probably seen them, but not quite understood what everything means. How are these charts used? Do I need to check my child's growth rate? Answer these questions and more by reading here about growth chart guidelines.
The World Health Organization (WHO) makes health recommendations for people of all ages around the world. They have a set just for children, focusing on the first years of life as a healthy foundation. Their growth charts are used around the world to track growth trends in children. This chart was just updated in 2007 with an important change included.
According to the WHO growth chart guidelines, breastfed babies are now considered the norm. Breastfed babies are leaner in general, and the WHO's updated growth curve has changed to reflect this. The WHO recommends that babies should be exclusively breastfed for the first six months of life. Vaccinations and other good health habits should be practiced. They also advise pregnant women and mothers to avoid tobacco.
The WHO refers to something called the double burden of malnutrition. Highly processed foods have low nutritional value and a high caloric level. Eating this kind of food in large amounts contributes to obesity. Because of the cheap price, these foods are often bought by low-income families. When pregnant mothers eat this way, they deprive their growing fetuses of nutrients. This leads to low birth weight, a major factor in infant death.
It would not be unusual to see obese adults and older children in the same house as a malnourished baby. As these children grow older, they tend to consume lots of empty calories. This puts them at risk for becoming obese themselves. Unfortunately, family life patterns contribute to this cycle for many children at risk for obesity.
Growth chart guidelines are used by professionals for several important reasons. They are used to spot unhealthy growth and nutrition trends across populations. Practitioners and policymakers need updated information about the health of their communities. Information about growth rates help these professionals make an impact on maternal health, child mortality, poverty, and hunger in their regional area.
Doctors use growth chart guidelines in regular examinations to chart growth and weight gain in children. This is crucial in the early years of life for tracking the risk for obesity or malnourishment. When a growth rate problem is caught early, it is easier to put things back on track. Nutritionists who would help these families also use these guidelines to give recommendations and track progress.
The World Health Organization's Child Growth Page is available through this link. As a parent, you can use the growth chart to learn more about how you child should be developing through age five. Remember that it is more important that your child follow a consistent growth curve, rather than aiming for a specific percentile. If you see something of concern, share this will your health care provider.

Omega VRT330HD Best Price
Omega VRT330HD Best Price
When you are looking for Omega VRT330HD best price, there are two places I'd recommend, one is Zappos.com/Omega_Vrt330hd_Sale, and the other is Amazon.com/Omega-Vrt330HD-Sale The list price is $430, however, this juicer is on sale for cheaper.
If you can find it in the lower end of the price range, you got yourself a great deal!
There are a few reasons why you should shop there, and not all of it has to do with the price.
Out of those two places, I highly suggest you give Zappos.com a try. As one of the most successful online retailer on the market, they offer the best customer service in the business
Besides the price, there is shipping cost. Other places might charge you anywhere from $20 to over $30 on the Omega VRT330HD.
When you shop from Zappos.com, you won't have to pay a cent! That is because everything on their site is shipped free.
It doesn't end there. If there is a problem with your order, ie wrong size, or wrong color, they even pay for return shipping. Not very many companies do that.
There is also the tax advantage. Most of you won't have to pay sales tax. That is because they don't have stores in your states. Though some states found a loop hole, most of you are still able to shop from Zappos.com tax free.
They also have the best return policy I have ever heard of. If you think 30 day return policy is good, be prepare to have you mind blown. Zappos has a 365 day return policy. No, that is not a typo, ONE FULL YEAR! That kind of commitment to customer satisfaction is hard to find.
You will also be happy to hear that if you have any questions, you can actually call them, and a real person will actually pick up the phone. Their customer service is legendary. One woman had to order multiple pairs of shoes because of a medical condition, the employee at Zappos sent her flowers the next day. When was the last time your loved ones sent you flowers?
Since the sale price changes consistently from $379.99 to over $400, check out both Zappos.com, and Amazon.com to see what kind of discount you can get.

She didn't, of course, but next month, DVF may come pretty close, having tapped the Rockettes to perform for her at the Life Ball 2010. The legendary dancers will be wearing DVF wrap rompers from von Furstenberg's cruise collection for a choreographed fashion segment. "There is nothing more New York than the Radio City Rockettes," von Furstenberg said. "We are pleased to bring those legs, those kicks and those glamorous women with us to Vienna." Von Furstenberg is participating at the July 17 festivities, which serve as the opening of the Life Ball and the XVIII International AIDS Conference, alongside Kenneth Cole and Calvin Klein Collection's Francisco Costa.
