Giving 2008 - Ministry Videos
Embed chchnorthelim 2033 views 2008-03-17T00:00:00 My dream and desire for us as individuals and as a church is to come into the fullness of all that God has for us and to do that we need to understand his expectations. There are many spiritual truths we need to come to understand. Many Christians know their Bible well but they only have head knowledge of what it says and having head knowledge is about a foot away from true revelation. Knowing God's word must be heart knowledge.

Real Madrid Wins the Champions League
Real Madrid won the Champions League for the 10th time thanks to extra time goals from Gareth Bale, Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo to beat Atletico Madrid 4-1 in Lisbon on Saturday.
Atletico Madrid had an advantage of 1:0 for most of the game, but in the 93rd minute Sergio Ramos scored and took the game into extra time.
In the 110th minute Gareth Bale scored for Real Madrid. By the end of the game, two more goals were scored by Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo.
"It is the most important goal I have scored," said Ramos, quoted by AFP. "It is an incredible feeling. We kept fighting until the end for the fans. It is not my goal, but one for all Madrid fans, my family and all those that have supported us until the end. We deserved it after so many years."
Real coach Carlo Ancelotti, meanwhile, becomes the first man since Bob Paisley to win the competition three times. "We have done it with a lot of suffering and difficulty, but in the end we have done it and we deserved it," said the Italian.
"I am very happy for this because we have won a trophy that for Real Madrid is very important. We have worked hard all year for this."

Converts may not be as automatic as they have been in the past if a proposed change by the CFL's rules committee is approved by the league's board of governors.
Regina Pats goaltender Daniel Wapple has a smile on his face and a spring in his step.
What has Colby Cave meant to the Swift Current Broncos?
When asked about the heartbreaking conclusion to his most-recent WHL postseason game - played 32 years ago - the Regina Pats' president and part-owner was thoughtful and expansive in his response. As a 19-year-old, Lumbard tended goal for a Pats team that amassed 48 regularseason victories. He was the victorious netminder in 38 of those contests.
The LeBoldus Golden Suns took a step Thursday toward what they hope is another championship celebration in 2015.
Ajai Washington may come highly recommended to the University of Regina Rams, but the Queen City also comes highly recommended to him.

John Paddock accepted the award, but not the credit.
A small group of students at the University of Regina is hoping to start a conversation about what it means to be a man in today's society. The Man Up Against Violence executive committee formed last semester and in October hosted its first event that focused on domestic violence.

How 9/11 Changed How Americans View The World
Sep 11, 2012
After the terror attacks on 9/11, a public opinion survey by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs showed widespread support for increased spending on national security and counterterrorism.

Thoughts on Strategy from a Career Ambassador
Sep 05, 2012

The hard reality is that China and the United States will not be able to lessen strategic mistrust unless and until they are prepared to address a central question: is there an array of military deployments and normal operations that will permit China to defend its core interests while allowing America to continue fully to meet its defense responsibilities in the region and protect vital U.S. interests?

Moscow Talks Grind To Halt; Some Progress Claimed
Jun 20, 2012
"The goal of winning "concrete steps" from Iran is still far away. This gives fuel to those who argue that time is running out because Iran continues to expand its enrichment and other nuclear work.

Golden Princess Cruise Review by tinwings: Fun Sailing but more port time needed

Fun Sailing but more port time needed
Our Hawaiian cruise was satisfactory except for the short time in ports. Having to return to the ship at 5 pm really puts a damper on the time spent to enjoy the islands. In Honolulu we had to return by 11 pm which was ample time to tour the sights. The ship was comfortable and the seas were fine except for 2 nights when the sea got a little rough.
Dining in the formal dining rooms was much better than the on deck buffet. We have notice a lowering in the quality of the buffet food. It wasn't as good as the last cruises we took on Princess. We were disappointed that there was no midnight buffet prior to the last day of the cruise. However, I must congratulate the staff on excellent friendly service. Our room attendant was the best and so was all the other staff members we met especially the servers in the dining room.
During the cruise we had one unruly group on deck who drank and acted quite inappropriate using foul language. You'll always get one on any cruise who More can't behave themselves. The ships security personnel spoke to them and after that they cooled down considerably. Overall, the cruise was as advertised with plenty to do during the day and good entertainment at night.
I must admit that the gratuity payment of $11/day/PP on top of the 15% gratuity for drinks seems a little excessive. We elected to have the $11/day/PP removed and tipped those persons as we pleased for good service.
Overall I would rate the cruise a 9 out of 10 only because of the high cost of drinks and short shore visits. Other than that we are pleased. Less

Cabin review: Golden Princess
Cabin space too small for 4 people. Need more clothing and luggage storage area. Bathroom adequate. Would recommend an accordion door between the bedroom and the bathroom area for privacy while dressing when other people are in room.

The crescent shaped lake is busy with motor boaters in summer (40hp limit) and waves can be issue, stay close to shore. South end is more isolated, shallow thus few boats (generally pontoons only), but deer, heron and gull abound, and in high water can paddle down Money Creek. No stumps or stones, and plenty of neat old and new homes locally (some fancy!) with a smile and wave for all paddlers. Great day paddle; bring your own water and snacks. Lake Police boat on patrol for safety, assure your boat is registered (IL sticker).

What has 6 legs, can fly, and stays crunchy in milk? I'll give you a guess, beetles that's right. What an odd gift to give to someone, that's what your thinking right? But what if I said that this makes a great gift for a entomologist? Then what? Oh what's that? An entomologist studies bugs, and some how made a career of it. They are hard to find gifts for, but not today.
Finally, its Spring... I don't know what kind of winter you had, but I'm tired of snow, my petals are cold. Finally the snow is melting, and all that white is changing back to flowers again. But I bet your sick of looking at all that blandness too - am I right? Maybe that stuff on your walls are looking a bit too drab, I mean you've been looking at it for a while now, its probably time for an update. Time for Spring cleaning out with the old and in with the new. It's best to start with art, so you can match the furniture to it, certainly a lot more fun.

Hotel Mario's
A friendly, welcoming place
I really liked this B&B. It's got the trimmings (think wrought-iron bed), friendly, helpful staff (they have great restaurant recommendations and they will volunteer to reserve for you - you don't even have to ask for it), and a cozy ambiance set amidst a refurbished building. The location, though a five-minute walk from Stazione di Sta Maria Novella, is along a dark, narrow alley, which could put off some security-conscious tourists. The plus factor? It's in front of a popular hostel where you can get cheap beer (and bottled water), and hang out with some fellow young travelers.
Directions: From the train station, walk along Via Nazionale, turning right at Via Faenza. It's at the far end of the road, to your left.
Location, Location, Value
Skip the cabs -- 5 minute walk from train station. Rooms are a good size (bathrooms are small) owners are at the desk all day. Priced around $150 depending on date. I'll stay here whenever I'm in Florence
Don't Judge This Hotel By The Exterior
If you pass this hotel, you will think it couldn't possibly be nice. The building is really ugly on the outside. But then many of the buildings in Florence are. The owner, Mario, told me over the phone not to judge the hotel by what the building looks like. I took his advice and didn't and booked a room there. It was, indeed, a very charming tiny hotel, charming owner, and extremely clean. A pleasure to stay in this three star hotel.
A single is between 70 and 80 Euros.
Unique Quality: Clean rooms, comfortable, cozy, nice staff.
Directions: Neat train station and the mercato.
Close to the train station
We have stayed at Mario's 3 times and we have always been happy with the hotel. The breakfasts are very nice. They have a nice sitting room that you can order drinks in and relax after a hard day. Only a short walk to the major tourist sites. Also, Mario's is only a block from the train station.
Cozy Hotel
Hotel Mario's is conveniently located within walking distance of the train station. You will need to get your luggage up a flight of stairs when you arrive. Very friendly and helpful staff; small, but clean rooms; and a fresh flower and fruit left nightly. The negative of this hotel was the showers. The bathroom was REALLY small. Once you managed to maneuver yourself inside, the shower doors were accordian style. The water is supposed to stay inside the door area (no drainage tub). Needless to say, that doesn't happen. The floor ends up drenched every time. It was pretty frustrating, and made the overall experience not very pleasant.
Unique Quality: Out of the five hotels we stayed at in Italy, Hotel Mario's definitely served the best cappuccino during breakfast!
Directions: Walking distance from the train station
Hotel Mario's
about 150,000 lire, room for two with bath and breakfast.
Unique Quality: Small, twenty rooms or so, on second floor of building. Very hospitable. We depended on them to pick out a place to eat every night and they were all great.

Fashion: You'll never guess what's underneath: Designers have finally cottoned on to that women do not want to show every curve
Thursday 10 March 1994
Ironically, they appeared while many of the fashion pack weren't looking, their attention diverted by the actor pack; Lauren Bacall, Sophia Loren, Tracey Ullman and Kim Basinger, playing reporters in Robert Altman's fashion movie Pret a Porter, which was being filmed at the shows. Still, you would have had to have been seriously transfixed by Tracey Ullman's bad hair days not to notice the seismic shift going on in the foreground.
Many of this season's clothes seem ugly because they are so unfamiliar. But the signs are that women - too long constrained by fashions created for teenage girls - will find in them something to love again. Ample clothes, forgiving clothes, the kind of clothes people write to newspapers begging for were being hinted at again in Paris.
I say hinted at because the journey is incomplete. I wouldn't wear the clothes you see here because, with the exception of the Yohji Yamamoto piece which happens to be the least photogenic, they are too wild for me. But they do signal a shift towards different proportions which, when filtered into the mainstream, will have more far-reaching effect than tabloid red herrings about nipple counts or a Hollywood movie about fake fashion folk.
Look at the Vivienne Westwood outfit. Ugly and daft, isn't it? What woman would want to slip a chunk of a Chesterfield sofa under her skirt? But wait a minute. One of the models in the show was Eva Herzigova, she of the current and controversial Wonderbra advertisements promoting padded bosoms. There have certainly been times when these would have been judged equally ridiculous.
History is full of examples of an artificially embellished female form. The waist's pilgrimage up and down the body has been charted by many, and, from the end of this month, is even the subject of an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum in New York, called Waist Not. Think of farthingales, bumrolls and hip pads. And before you rush to claim that today's mobile self-assured women would never put up with such interference with their body form, think of shoulder pads. These may have shrunk, but they haven't gone away.
Westwood's statement of the case will be too emphatic for most people. My bottom is quite padded enough without her help. But what showed up as jokey upholstery here recurred as more convincing and acceptable disguise by Orson and Bodil, Sonia Rykiel and Marcel Marongiu.
Fashion has been so pared-down, so simple and so utterly unforgiving that the time has come for it to bear more resemblance to the conventions of the female form. Perhaps the padding is merely the first step from odd and ugly to acceptable and normal in a new fashion dynamic.
Bulky textures from poodle wools to fur (too much of it real) dominated the shows. Cropped sweaters were so fluffy the real shape of an upper torso couldn't be calculated. Rough and hairy boiled-wool coats were so immense that you couldn't tell if the wearer was a solid Amazon or a superwaif. At Comme des Garcons models looked as if they were swathed in curtains, while Jean Paul Gaultier took his audience on a far-flung adventure above the snow-line. And what do they wear up there? Layer upon bulky layer.
'Who would wear any of that?' I wondered aloud. 'I would,' one reporter said. 'I would, too,' said another. 'It's liberating. No one would know what size you are.' And that is the point. For too long, we have played along with the decreed 'perfect' body size. Now women are saying 'enough' and the most innovative designers in the world appear to be joining the chorus.
Let's not forget how it once was, when designers created for women rather than girls as a matter of course. Cristobal Balenciaga (1895-1972), probably the greatest fashion designer of the 20th century, showed rigorous haute couture on short stocky women. The current fashion icon is Bjrk, the curvy and delightful Icelandic singer. She opened the show of JP G, who used to worship Madonna's taut, trained body.
The smartest commentators are already equating the importance of this to the Youthquake of the Sixties, the enormously influential shift that led to our 30-year period of worship at the temple of youth.
Let's call this new one the Womanquake. It should be a big one.

Skyline is redefined resort communities

Since Israeli-born businessman Gil Blutrich arrived in Canada in 1998, his Skyline Developments has been redefining the concept of Ontario destination resorts.
Skyline's portfolio includes the Pantages, King Edward and Cosmopolitan hotels in Toronto, as well as Deerhurst Resort, Horseshoe Valley Resort and 1,100 acres at Port McNicoll on Georgian Bay, where it is creating a master-planned, $1.6 billion resort community.
Blutrich seeks out properties close to a mature town or township that have large underleveraged land banks. At Deerhurst, a 115-year-old resort with 431 rooms in Muskoka, Skyline transformed the hotel rooms into 120 condos that started at just $149,000 and sold out within days.
At Horseshoe Valley, Skyline has been transforming the 1960s Barrie-area ski resort into a deluxe four-season residential community with condos, restaurants, golf, skiing, a wealth of other outdoor activities and a luxury spa.
Recently, Blutrich purchased the S.S. Keewatin, a 350-foot-long passenger ship that for 60 years carried passengers from Port McNicoll to Fort William (Thunder Bay). The ship left Canada when it was sold to an American buyer. It's older than the Titanic and was the first ship on the Great Lakes equipped with radar. The Keewatin was towed home to Port McNicoll amidst much fanfare this summer, where it will serve as a community centre and a special events venue.

A CHARLTON fan was thrown out of The Valley and arrested following allegations of racial abuse against one of the club's players.
Police have confirmed they were called to the lower north stand at 4.30pm on Saturday (Feb 8) where the man had been ejected from the stadium during the Birmingham match.
The 44-year-old man, from Kent, was arrested in connection with the incident and bailed to return to a south-east London police station in March.
Charlton said in a statement: "The club is aware that, on Saturday afternoon, racist abuse was allegedly aimed at a Charlton player by a home supporter."
They added: "The club takes these allegations extremely seriously and adopts a zero tolerance policy against racist behaviour."
After the game, Addicks player Cédric Evina wrote in a tweet, since deleted: "Racist abuse especially from own fans isn't acceptable! #disgraceful."

Ahead of illegal mining report, Cong targets Hegde

- A little reminder: No one in House debated Section 66A, Congress brought it and BJP backed it
With Karnataka Lokayukta Santosh Hegde expected to submit his second and final report on illegal iron ore mining in the state running up losses of over Rs 10,000 crore in the last decade this June-end, political parties have assumed differing positions towards Hegde.
While the opposition Congress has accused Hegde of delaying the report so as to aid the ruling BJP in the state, the opposition Janata Dal (Secular) and the ruling BJP have said they had faith in the former Supreme Court judge
Senior Congress leaders Janardhan Poojary and B K Hariprasad have over the last couple of weeks questioned the functioning of Hegde also a member of the Lokpal Bill drafting committee and accused him of shielding Chief Minister Yeddyurappa and the BJP government.
On June 6, Poojary questioned the Karnataka Lokayukta's presence on the drafting committee for Lokpal Bill when several matters related to corruption in Karnataka remained pending. "I have a lot of respect for the Lokayukta but he should know that he is also answerable to the public. Why is he on the drafting panel and not addressing his duties as a Lokayukta?'' Poojary asked.
Hegde, when questioned about Poojary's stance, said: I would not like to react to such comments''. "He is a lawyer. He should know better about legal issues. It's his government that has approved my appointment to drafting committee,'' he said.
"The reasons for all these parties targeting me will be clear after the submission of the final report on mining."
AICC member Hariprasad said the delays in the completion of the mining report would indirectly help the BSY government. He added that Hegde's loyalties were under suspicion since he withdrew his resignation last year at the behest of BJP leader L K Advani, whom he considered a father-figure.

No reason to doubt that Hyderabad Test will go ahead: CA

"We will make assessments in time but at this stage there is no reason to doubt that what we have planned in Hyderabad will go ahead," CA CEO James Sutherland, who is here for the opening Test which got underway today, said.
Hyderabad, which is scheduled to host the match from March 2, was yesterday rocked by two bomb blasts which have so far claimed 14 lives.
"Very concerned to hear that news but at the same time we are focussed. On the management side, we will wait for the next few days and make any necessary assessments. But the focus here right now in Chennai is on cricket," asserted Sutherland.
Sutherland said it was too early to express fears as he is "comfortable" with the security being provided to the Australian cricketers.
"We work closely with relevant authorities in taking advice from them. I think it's premature to be making assessments on that (whether Hyderabad can host the match) but from where I sit right now, my expectation would be that everything will go ahead in Hyderabad as planned," he stressed.
"(I am) very comfortable (with security arrangements). From our reports after talking to our security guys, everything has gone absolutely to plan.
"We do our pre-tour visits and liaise with the relevant authorities. Everything has been mapped carefully and is going according to the plans," he said. Sutherland said none of the touring players have expressed any security fears after the blasts.
"No player has indicated any concern at the moment. The players are very focussed right now on this Test match in Chennai and the management will do what they need to do; taking relevant advice, working with authorities here in Chennai and in other parts, including the Australian government," he said.
Sutherland also refuted suggestions that the incident would distract Australian cricketers from the job at hand.
"These guys are professional sportsmen and part of that is preparing yourself in being able to manage distractions. You need to perform at the best of your ability and you wouldn't get to this level unless you are able to do that," he explained.
"I am very confident that the team is focussed on what they have got ahead this week in Chennai. At the same time, they are very confident to leave it on the management to focus with any other issues," he said.
Australia are scheduled to play four Tests against India leading into the Ashes series during the English summer.
