How can I make my pastor understand that just because I have different beliefs than him, it doesn't mean I'm lost?
If you have different beliefs than your pastor, perhaps you need to find a different church, one that fits your beliefs?
Don't even try. he's the one who's lost because he's incapable of understanding other people. If he can't do that he's no business calling himself a priest. He's not just bl<x>inkered as our local calculus enthusiast says, he wants to run others' lives.

Some respondents have suggested going to a different church - but they assume you are religious. You don't say if you are or not, but either way you don't have to take any rubbish from "pastors". Do they have any theological education including a deep study or other religions and sects?

Don't forget - you can believe in a god if you like, improvable though that god is; but that's not the same as believing a sc<x>ripture - its author(s)' own beliefs - or a priest - who may have ulterior motives.
That will only work if he respects other peoples' beliefs.

If he believes that everyone with different beliefs than him is lost, you would be wasting your breath to even try
My father in law told me that he felt sorry for me and my kids cause we're gonna burn in hell cause my hubby wont go to church with him i simply told him that if he believes that then he has a differrent god then i do also reminded him about though shall not judge or pass judgement
What exactly are your different beliefs?
Romans 10:9-10 NIV
You can't. this is the biggest problem with some religious people. They have closed thier Minds to everything except what they want to believe. no amount of Logic,Reason,Common sense,will convince them, because they refuse to accept anything but what they deem to be right.
I doubt you can...that's usually a sign that the person doesn't have an open mind so I would suggest getting a different church if it bothers you.
"do or not do. there is no try" - yoda
Tell that a$$hole that you have feelings and beliefs just like he does... And as a pastor, he needs to respect them... If he is a man of God, he will, and if not, it will expose him for the phony that he is... Either way, you make your point..
You never will, they are so bl<x>inkered they can only see one thing, and are not open to other ideas, youre not lost, you just have a compass that works and his dosent
What topics do you differ in opinion than him?

Ground-Breaking Surgery Sight and a Vision of the Future
We're all guilty of taking our eyesight for granted.
As you read this, some of you will wear glasses, some of you will wear contact lenses – but almost all of you will be unable to imagine not being able to read the headline on this page.
For some people however, this disturbing notion is slowly becoming a reality.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of legal blindness in the UK in people over the age of 55.
The macula is a small point on the retina onto which light is focussed by the ocular lens.
Here, a dense collection of light-sensitive cells allow us to see straight-ahead and are needed to read, sew, drive and see fine details.
With AMD, small blood vessels can begin to grow abnormally behind the macula, encouraging the growth of scar tissue and destroying the cells which translate light into neural impulses.
This 'wet' AMD is found in about 10 to 15 per cent of cases and in some circumstances treatment may be available on the NHS to halt its progression, which is often rapid.
In the more common 'dry' form of AMD, yellow deposits called drusen accumulate under the retina, destroy macular cells and blur central vision.
For this, there is no cure and patients may gradually lose central sight in the affected eye, leaving a blank spot in the middle of their vision.
As it progresses, some patients will be unable to drive, read, see close-up detail or even recognise faces.
Until now, no treatment has been able to restore sight lost as a result of AMD.
However, for some patients a new surgical procedure promises a beacon of hope.
Seventy-three-year-old grandmother Mary Johnson first developed the wet form of the disease in her right eye four years ago.
She said: "At that time there wasn't a lot they could do about it, but I had treatment and it's improved a lot.
"Then, last April, I started having problems with my left eye as well."
As Mary's sight worsened, her husband Jack (80) became her eyes.
He said: "When you have macular degeneration simple things like eating become very difficult.
"You might go to a restaurant where they have green napkins and think it was a piece of lettuce!"
Mary adds: "My ten-year-old grandson kept telling me he was going to get me a guide dog. I could hardly see anything.
"In the end, I was registered partially-sighted and referred to Mr Aftab."
Consultant ophthalmic surgeon Mr Sakkaf Ahmed Aftab, who runs a clinic from Grimsby's St Hugh's Hospital, was one of the first surgeons to be trained in the IOL Vip (intra-ocular lens for visually impaired people) procedure.
The surgery is very similar to a cataract removal, in which the ocular lens is replaced with an artificial one behind the iris.
However, a second lens is also placed in front of the iris – creating a slightly magnified image much like a telescope. As a result, light entering the eye is directed to a healthy part of the retina and away from the macular scar, giving patients back some of their useful vision.
The procedure is painless, easy to carry out, and the effects are almost immediate.
Mary, of Kenmar Road, Laceby, was recently the first patient in the entire region to benefit from the ground-breaking surgery.
She said: "I noticed the difference more or less straightaway.
"When you have macular degeneration you no longer take your sight for granted, and being able to get out in the garden to pick up the weeds has meant so much to me.
"One day I was walking through town with my husband and I said: 'Look! I can see House of Fraser!' I was so excited that I was able to read the sign.
"Hopefully, with time, my sight will improve even more. But if I stay as I am now I will be satisfied.
"It's made a huge difference to my life and I can't praise Mr Aftab enough – he really is a wonderful surgeon and takes great joy in giving people their sight back."
Medical science is constantly striving to detect and treat AMD, but advances in this area are slow to reach the general public and are often prohibitively expensive for the majority of patients.
In many cases, a patient's eyesight has to deteriorate sufficiently for NHS-funded treatment to become available, although this policy can differ among Primary Care Trusts.
Mary said: "When I first heard about it my family said I must go for it. Your sight is so important, and they all backed me up.
"At first I thought it was too much money, but when I got home from the clinic that day Jack said you can't put a price on your eyesight.
"And although I've had to pay for it, it's been worth every penny."
Mary paid pounds5,900 for her surgery, but Mr Aftab is hopeful that the National Institute for Clinical Excellence – the state rationing body for health – will someday licence the treatment for use on the NHS.
He said: "When I first came to Grimsby in 2002 I brought a treatment with me called photodynamic therapy (PDT), which at that time was the latest treatment available for macular degeneration.
"But, it took two or three years for PDT to become available on the NHS.
"Likewise, it was several years before American drugs for AMD were licensed for use here.
"NICE has just started looking into getting the procedure licensed and hopefully, as more and more patients receive it, it will put the pressure on them to approve it."
Mr Aftab is quick to point out the surgery is not suitable for everyone, is not a miracle cure, and is only appropriate for patients who have lost a significant level of vision.
However, it can restore enough of a patient's sight to drastically improve their quality of life.
"This is a procedure for people who cannot see," he said.
"There's no way that after having this you would be able to read small print or start driving again.
"But that's why this work is so rewarding – because you are giving people back their vision when before they had none at all."

Men's VIP List
Both Women's & Men's VIP List
A new brand on our radar, and also featured on High Snobiety, is wings + horns. Why? Distinct fabrics like customized knits, wovens and tartans are found alongside textured wools and rich cottons. Their seasonal colorways are oxblood, camel and deep sea, which add depth and texture to every piece throughout the collection. Drawing inspiration from London's modernist youth movement of the 1950's, wings + horns stays true to their utilitarian touch. (more…)
It's summer again in the Northern Hemisphere and as temperatures rise expect the clothes to begin peeling off. We have assembled some tips to adapt your style to the heat without resorting to a full monty. (more…)
With Spring Break upon us and Memorial Day and summer round the corner we were stoked to see some of our favorite gear amongst Selectism's "10 Wet Short". Onia's Calder Short and Lightning Bolt's boardshort were mentioned. If those don't suffice we also have Sundek and Olasul as well. Pair any of these trunks with a great graphic t, tank, your favorite shades and Havaianas and you're ready to jet to the beach or poolside. (more…)
The California classic board short is back with a vengeance and no matter what your favorite color is we've got you covered. Whether lying in the sun or riding the swells, no guy's closet should be lacking these killer trunks. We offer an array of solids, plaids and patterns. We also offer the capsule collection from Neil Barrett and you can score his version in CAMO! Pair these sick board shorts with some Havaianas, Raybans and Burkman Bros bracelets and tanks and you're good to go!

The Riviera Club label was conceived by Joe Sadler, Derek Buse and Greg Ullery on a golf course. The collection is infused with an unmistakable aura of west coolness. This spring is no different and references Palm Springs, California. We can't wait to rock the Mira Mar Crew for those chilly nights on the beach and the guys are on the money with their Mutu Stripe shirt and perfect shorts.
SPURR is for the man at the forefront of design, music and social media. We could not agree more…functional product with an edge. DOPE THREADS!
Here at SINGER22, we are super-stoked to be carrying Supra's 'The Skytop III!'
Rogue's sublime t-shirts and tank tops were featured in a totally rad shoot for Maxim! You can scoop the gear as seen in the editorial here.

Sean Hotchkiss, better known as the voice of The GQ Eye is an aficionado of fashion knowledge. Here at SINGER22, we were fortunate enough to pick Sean's brain about double-breasted blazers, the surf/baja movement, golf, and more. We really respect someone who can bring it. AND Sean surely can.

2010 All-New Hyundai Tucson Malaysia Pricing Announced
Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors has announced the pricing for the 2010 all-new Hyundai Tucson, also known as Hyundai ix35. Although Tucson will only be officially launched in May, it is already available for test drive and booking countrywide. The 2.0-litre 2WD Standard-Spec version sells for RM 126,888, the 2.0-litre 2WD High-Spec version sells for RM 136,888, and the 2.4-litre 4WD goes for RM 152,888. Prices are on-the-road with insurance.
Paired to Hyundai's new six-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic, the two in-line four-cylinder petrol engines come from the Theta-II family and are equipped with dual variable valve timing and variable induction system. The 2.0-litre produces 164 bhp at 6200 rpm and 197 Nm at 4600 rpm; the 2.4-litre generates 175 bhp at 6000 rpm and 227 Nm at 4000 rpm.
The suspension consists of MacPherson struts at the front and multi-link at the rear. The power steering uses a conventional hydraulic setup. Safety equipments include dual front airbags, active headrests and braking controls comprising ABS for the base model. Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Downhill Brake Control (DBC) and Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) for the two higher-end models.
Safety equipments aside, the base model also goes without a number of features that the higher-end models have, such as semi-leather seats, synthetic leather trim, smart key entry, engine start/stop button, panoramic sunroof and chrome grille/door handles. The 2.4-litre 4WD has to itself a power driver's seat and automatic climate control.
Six colours—Vanilla White, Hyper Metallic, Phantom Black, Sleek Silver, Gray Titanium and Blue Ice—are up for selection.

UCB: Something worth sharing....about us 1y ago
It was truly a honor to chat with Scott Harrison, founder and CEO of Charity: Water, during his stop in Portland for the World Domination Summit. In 2004, Scott left his life of promoting nightclubs and fashion events in New York City to volunteer aboard a floating hospital with a group called Mercy Ships, a humanitarian organization which offered free medical care in the world's poorest nations, in West Africa. The second he walked aboard that ship, he never went back to his old life, and everything changed. Charity: Water's mission is very clear...Bring clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations. It's hard not to think about water today. In the western world, we face growing concerns about our stewardship of the world's most precious resource. There's talk of shortages, evidence of reservoirs and aquifers drying up, and of course, plenty of people who simply don't care. But forget about us. Most of us have never really been thirsty. We've never had to leave our houses and walk five miles to fetch water. We simply turn on the tap, and water comes out. Clean. Yet there are 800 million people on the planet who don't have clean water. It's hard to imagine what 800 million people looks like really, but one in nine might be easier. One in nine people in our world doesn't have access to the most basic of human needs. Something we can't imagine going 12 hours without.

Katie Price (Jordan)
Oh, Katie Price, I Can Think of Two Things I Love About You
And not altogether much else. Nevertheless, Katie Price, the Britty TV reality personality and former singer slash model slash drunken party girl who likes to flash her cleavage was back at it again in announcing the launch of hew new swimwear line which I think is called Wet Ho or something like that.
More importantly, Katie put her less than natural funbags into the mix, proving that you too can look hot in your swimsuit if only you have monstrous flesh puppies. Or maybe they're chlorine resistant. In either case, don't expect to see the British Olympic Swim Team wearing Katie's designs this summer in London. Enjoy.
Katie Price Pimps Her Double Dipper Stripper Look at Her Reality Television Launch
Well, we did post Phoebe Price earlier today, so it only seems fair to give the unrelated Katie Price, the self-promoting pimpstress across the pond, an equal amount of the attention she so dearly craves. (And the bustier and garter and panties don't hurt our charitable hearts.)
Katie Price launches a lot of projects. I'm not exactly sure what or where these projects lead, because outside of her spank bank potential, she seems to have little commercial viability. Nevertheless, such talent deficits never stopped the Kardashians, so onward and downward into reality television goes Katie Price with the launch of her new show, Signed by Katie Price. Granted, the Anna Nicole Smith show was quite popular, so there is precedent for large funbagged bleached blondes to get drunk and fall down on TV and eyeballs to gaze, but you really do need to up the personal train-wreck quotient for this to work. Anna Nicole upped it a bit too far you might say. The only assumption we can make about Katie Price and her show — anticipate many wardrobe malfunctions, either accidental or planned. Then, and only then, we might just tune in to the telly. Enjoy.
Katie Price Cleave-Launches Her Eponymous Magazine in London
Seems like just yesterday we were conducting an impromptu OB/GYN examination of Katie Price following a late night drunken rip-fest at a London nightclub; now, just a few days later, the glamour model and (former) football player plow girl has decided to expose her inner most thoughts and dreams on the pages of her self-titled magazine, 'Katie'; I think it's sort of like Oprah's 'O' magazine, except less fat. It's hard to imagine there'd be much within the pages of 'Katie' worth discovering, but, we try not to judge a book by its cover, just look at all the vulvatastic schematics we found out about Katie on her latest upskirt. Enjoy.
When Katie Price Drinks, She Gets Loose Lips
Look, far be it from Egotastic! to criticize one hot mess from slipping into something see-through, getting blinkered drunk with her polo playing boyfriend, spilling an endless series of cocktails on her dress, then clutzily climbing into her party limousine with her legs spreads, providing an upskirt view of panties not quite broad enough to cover her smackeroous majorus, therein snapped heartily by the local paparazzi.
Okay, I take that back, we can certainly criticize the polo playing boyfriend; I mean, c'mon Katie Price, a.k.a., Jordan, has bedded down any number of famous British footballers, as all nutty glamour models with distinctly girthy funbags really should; it's really a matter of tradition. But a polo player? Well, I suppose something is making this lady swelleth in her nest, so perhaps it's all good. Enjoy.

See vid, comment if you would like to try it:
I'll give them a go for you – been wanting to try them for a while, to see if they make a difference in my eternal quest for bigger hair! Should have been born a bit earlier so I could have been around for the huge hair of the 1980's…
I'm full of failure today, I really am. Should have added this to the last comment. Makeup from the blog sale arrived on Saturday but I only knew about it today due to being out of town – all fantastic, and the sweets were much appreciated! Thanks again =]
looks cool… I want the kind of hair in the movie Hairspray..
Bumpits- i read that as bum-pits, lols
i have doubts as to how it stays in the hair
Ooh i would love to try this out for you! im always back combing my hair, hopefully this would do a better job!
Would love to try this and give a review. After i had my silicone rebond, my hair lost all of its volume, thus my hair is really straight now.
i'd love to try this for you…but i'm from the Philippines, shipping could cost a lot…
ooo I love the sound of this: volume without teasing? I am not quite sure yet on how I would take a picture myself of my head with this thing in. I suppose I could ask the neighbour or the londis man to take it?
I would love to try this! My hair's black and although I have a lot of hair, it's still plain flat. @.@
i have the blonde ones i got last year… i do not like them i was all excited to put them in my hair but my hair isnt very thick. and its layered in the back.

Exactly as described. Even included 2 ink pads. Tue 20 Jan 2015 Excellent communication, gorgeous print, just perfect for our wedding, many thanks!! Tue 20 Jan 2015 Products good quality and good prices Tue 09 Dec 2014 Looks lovely, the paper quality is good and I look forward to it hanging on our wall for many years after our wedding in April Tue 02 Dec 2014 Beautiful print, very clear instructions that also looked good so could display for guests. Excellent service, arrived within 48 hours of ordering in pristine condition. Very happy, can't wait to hang it! Tue 25 Nov 2014 I made an error in order. Lady rang me to clarify and then made the needed changes which involved her going to some trouble on my behalf. She was so positive and cheerful! Didn't think real people were behind products these days. How refreshing!!! Mon 29 Sep 2014 This was the perfect guest book substitute, and as we had a photo booth and accompanying guest book for that I felt this was the perfect reminder of our special day, the delivery was so quick, much quicker than was estimated, and the actual poster looks so much better in real life than in the pictures. I was apprehensive about guests mucking the print up and so ordered a second print however it came with an instruction sheet to lay out with the print and not one single finger print went wrong- didn't even need the spare!! Lovely item and looks great hung up. It means we will never forget our special day! Tue 16 Sep 2014 Great product, good communication and prompt delivery, thanks! Mon 15 Sep 2014 Beautiful artwork that is exactly what we were looking for for our wedding. I can't wait to use it and then see it framed!!! Wed 10 Sep 2014 First print was not right, but this was replaced in a couple of day, with no problems. Beautiful item, can't wait to use it.

Now we can frame the tree and have a reminder of our big day hanging on the wall that we can look at all the time. Tue 13 May 2014 Great item, good quality, delivered very quickly! Tue 29 Apr 2014 So beautiful, thank you so much for this awesome fingerprint tree - looks amazing Fri 25 Apr 2014 I ordered the A3 version which states it holds around 90 fingerprints. When it arrived, although I was impressed with the quality, the colours, the image etc (&the frame which we also ordered) I was some what disappointed by the size. I contacted the seller who was understanding and sent me pictures to reassure me that it would fit around 90 fingerprints, despite the main picture on the site only fitting 70. However, I'm keeping the product and really like it and found the supplier really helpful. I would recommend to any future buyers to go bigger rather than smaller because their sizings are a bit ambitious. Tue 15 Apr 2014 Beautiful beautiful beautiful! Sun 06 Apr 2014 Made for a really beautiful, original wedding day present. Everybody at the party loved it and the bride and groom have something special to help them remember their big day. Not badly priced either considering the print is high quality. Tue 18 Mar 2014 Makes a beautiful, unique reminder of an event. Thu 23 Jan 2014 Detail was beautiful, recipients very, very pleased Tue 31 Dec 2013 Excellent service when an I had a problem, thanks Tue 26 Nov 2013 A bit expensive for what is was. Tue 12 Nov 2013 My niece and her new husband were thrilled, very unusual idea and the quality and service was first class thank you again Fri 08 Nov 2013 So beautiful and made up for me not being there Sun 27 Oct 2013 received exactly what I requested, thank you Tue 01 Oct 2013 Lovely item but a shame it was delivered rolled up in a tube - it's going to take a while to flatten it out. Tue 24 Sep 2013 Looks fantastic! Prompt service and arrived very quickly Sat 24 Aug 2013 Fantastic idea, lovely product Fri 09 Aug 2013 Amazing idea, everyone loved it and looks great Fri 26 Jul 2013 No comment supplied. Sun 23 Jun 2013 The idea of having a fingerprint tree instead of a guest book is a lovely one however I cant help but feel that upon receiving the picture it would have been fairly simple to have made this myself at home using photo paper and my own printer which would have been a snip of the price which was £30 . The writing itself when put into a suitable sized photoframe is half hidden by the frame so if you are going to opt for this as a purchase make sure you buy a larger frame than needed and I suppose a simple mount might help prevent the problem of the picture being too small. Disappointed overall at the product. Wouldn't recommend this. LillyPea Event Stationery's response: Thanks for your feedback and we're sorry to hear that you're not totally happy with your purchase.

Tue 02 Apr 2013 The tree picture was as expected from viewing online - good quality print. However, the edge of the paper was slightly scuffed.

With the way things have been going this season, Joey Logano's track qualifying record of 203.949 mph could be in serious jeopardy.

No Second Chance is yet another of Harlan Coben's terrifying explorations of the worst of fears--Marc Seidman wakes in hospital after narrowly surviving a shooting in which his wife died and their baby daughter went missing. The handover of a ransom from his rich in-laws goes wrong and Seidman realises that he is not only without wife and daughter--and the sister who may have been an accomplice--but he is also the principal suspect. The reader knows even more than Seidman just how much jeopardy he is in--Coben does a brilliantly disturbing job of introducing us to a pair of psychotics who are in charge of the ransom plot and who plan to take Seidman and his in-laws for another ride into insecurity and hell. Marc turns to the one person he thinks can help him--the ex-girlfriend who still has a place in his heart and used to be a senior Federal agent. The problem is that Rachel comes with baggage, and enemies, all of her own...
This is an impressive book about suspicion and how easy it is to make the wrong guesses; it is a triumph of misdirection. It also has that particular Coben touch--people are capable of behaving worse than you can possibly imagine, but also of acts of surprising grace. --Roz Kaveney
From Publishers Weekly
Supercharged by a father's fierce drive to rescue his kidnapped daughter, Coben's third stand-alone thriller proves far more gripping than his second, Tell No One. Marc Seidman, a plastic surgeon near New York City, wakes up in a hospital to learn that he has been gravely wounded, his wife shot dead and his infant daughter, Tara, snatched. The ensuing narrative, which shuttles between third person and Marc's first person, covers more than a year in Marc's hunt for Tara and climaxes twice with his fumbling of payments in response to ransom demands, plunging him into despair. A smartly drawn supporting cast supports Marc in his quest, including an old girlfriend-an ex-FBI agent-who reappears in his life; Marc's lawyer, who's also his best friend; a cop/FBI duo who for a while suspect Marc of engineering the snatch and ransom demands; and a working-class hero who joins forces with Marc near the end of his hunt and steals every scene he's in. On the villain's side lurk several shady folk, including a psychopathic former child star and her hulking boyfriend. The plot is overly complicated, and there's a revelation at book's end that veteran thriller readers will have sussed out long before. Those flaws matter little, though, in the face of the emotional onslaught of Marc's gut-wrenching, self-questioning, relentless narration, which will carry readers like a tidal wave through the novel's twists and turns. What Coben's thriller lacks in originality, it makes up for in sheer vigor; few browsers or dippers will put this down.

Ban urges pressure on Syria, slams North Korea
Published on Feb 14, 2013 5:56 AM
WASHINGTON (AFP) - UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon urged the Security Council on Wednesday to overcome its paralysis and take meaningful action on Syria, and slammed North Korea's "reckless" nuclear test.
"It is essential for the Security Council to overcome the deadlock and find the unity that will make meaningful action possible," in Syria, Mr Ban said in a speech at the Organization of American States (OAS) in Washington.
While the 15-member Council remains deadlocked and Syria - where the UN estimates that nearly 70,000 people have died - is politically polarised, deaths and human rights violations are mounting, Mr Ban said.
Russia and China have vetoed three Western-drafted resolutions that would simply have threatened sanctions against Bashar al-Assad's regime and a UN-led bid to arrange a ceasefire and peace talks has made no headway.

Android Community Weekly Wrap-Up for April 12, 2014
We've had some slow weeks in terms of Android news lately, but things appear to be picking up. And naturally, as we move closer to Google I/O we expect this to continue. Samsung and HTC have both released their latest flagship devices, plus there are some others we are still waiting to see. There was also quite a bit of talk about Heartbleed this past week.

Testimonial from recent guests -
Thank you so much for making our daughter's wedding even better! We were able to bring family together from all over the world that wouldn't have been able to make it if we hadn't been able to be here together. The house is great...the view is spectacular! Very well equipped and meticulously kept. It's proximity to the airport is a major plus for us! We will definitely be back!

This was one of the most restful and relaxing vacations we've ever
had. Not only were the amenities in the house absolutely
outstanding, the location and lake views were fabulous. Whether
watching the sunrise on the lake in the morning while enjoying
breakfast on the deck, enjoying an afternoon breeze on the dockside gazebo, or watching the sunset on the water while having dinner on the patio, this place is all about relaxing!
Thanks for providing such a wonderful retreat.

What is extended coverage?
The Bankrate.com financial term of the day is: "extended coverage."
With extended coverage, your health insurance company can say, "Time's up," but you can say, "not so fast." The insurance policy can expire, and yet the benefits will continue for a medical issue that's ongoing, such as pregnancy. If a woman is pregnant at the time the policy is terminated, her maternity expenses will still be covered.
You can hit the end of the road with your health plan but still get more mileage out of the policy, thanks to extended coverage.

NEW ORLEANS --Everyday it seems like new restaurants are popping up in the Metro area,but some say there are now more job openings than skilled workers.
Restaurant leaders say for over a decade now, the industry has seen double-digit growthand, in turn, that has created a huge need for skilled workers like Rachel DeFelice.
'This is like my second home, coming into the kitchen all the smells, just taking all the raw ingredients and making it into something delicious that people can appreciate,' says DeFelice.
The aspiring chef says she is pursuing her dreams thanks to a culinary scholarship.
While local programs are helping students like DeFelice fill the void, industry professionals say there is still a huge shortage of workers ready to step into leadership and management roles.
'It's just finding good people, it's almost like there's just not enough experienced restaurant staff in city to go around,' saysHaley Bittermann,Corporate Executive Chef and Director of Operations for the Ralph Brennan Restaurant Group.
Right now Bittermann is looking to staff the original Brennan's restaurant on Royal Street, which is currently under renovation.
Bittermann says with a lack of skilled and experienced workers in the hiring pool, the restaurant group is now focused on training and promoting its own employees.
'We can teach them the skills if they have the want and passion to do it,' says Bittermann.
The Louisiana Restaurant Association(LRA)Education Foundation has a program geared to fast track high school students looking for a career in the restaurant industryand now they aretaking further aim at the worker shortage with a new partnership with Camellia Beans.
'We really wanted to give a lot of umph to this, so we decided to have a contest and we are offering a $5,000 prize for the school that comes up with the best recipe,' says President of L.H. Hayward and Co., the packager of Camellia brand beans,Connelly Hayward.
'The restaurant and food service industry here in Louisiana represents over 10 percent of our total workforce,' says Executive Director of the Louisiana Restaurant Association Education Foundation Alice Glenn. 'That's over 200,000 people, so it's a huge foundational part of our economy.'
Glenn says the goal Is not just to grow the industry, but to make sure positions are filled by Louisiana students looking to have a rewarding career at home.
The LRA education foundation's high school program, ProStart, is in 50 high schools around the state and it includes more than 1,500 students.

South Korea president Park apologises to ferry disaster relatives
Published on May 17, 2014 1:37 AM
SEOUL (AFP) - President Park Geun-Hye made a direct apology Friday to relatives of the victims of South Korea's ferry disaster and vowed to reform the country's safety standards from scratch.
"I apologise again for the government's insufficient response," Park said at a meeting with 17 relatives who were invited to her presidential office.
It was the first time she has made an expression of regret directly to the victims' families, who had criticised a previous apology she issued during a cabinet meeting as impersonal.
"I will push for fundamental reform of the safety system of our society to prevent the recurrence of a similar disaster," Park told them.

Nearly 30 years ago, Orange County entrepreneur Sean Collins started a phone line, 976-SURF, which Southern California surfers could call for the best intelligence on that day's swell.
Today that service, known as Surfline.com, has morphed into a worldwide marine monitoring platform with iPhone apps, high-def video cameras, and spinoff websites for boaters and fishermen. About 2 million unique visitors a month log into the company's various websites, which are run from its Huntington Beach offices overlooking the iconic Surf City pier.
On a recent day, Surfline CEO Jonno Wells was showing off the latest spinoff site, Fishtrack.com. Subscribers can log on to find the best ocean conditions and read stories about fishing tournaments and reports about catches. He points his computer cursor to an image of the blue ocean off the coast of Central America near Honduras; a click shows swell size, winds and water temperatures.
"They are trying to determine what geography and conditions they are looking for," Wells says of the site's users. "It's funny, it's very similar to surf. Everyone is trying to score without having anyone else there, then brag about it later."
Wells, who grew up in Newport Beach, spent much of his career up in Silicon Valley as a publisher of a tech magazine and website called Cadence. In 2002, he got a chance to return to the beach scene. Fledgling Surfline had been purchased in 1999 at the height of the dot-com boom by Swell, a startup website that had a vision that Surfline could be an e-commerce site. That didn't pan out, and Surfline eventually was bought back by Wells, Chairman Jeff Berg, Collins, several private investors and employees.
At the time, there were only about a dozen employees and about 30 remote cameras. They generated rapid, still images that provided a kind of crude video.
"Imagine how they used to do the old cartoons and movies back in the day; they were a flip book," Wells said.
The company relied on an antiquated phone line with audio recordings from forecasters and a popular "wave fax" service.
"No one wanted to touch (the phone system), because you couldn't buy a new one, it was super old," Wells recalled. "It was wacky. (But) there was income coming from the calls. It was hard to cut something off that was so important to the foundation of the company."
Peter "PT" Townend, founder of action-sports marketing company ActivEmpire, said before Surfline was created, it was "all guess work."
"There was a need. The surfing community wanted information about when to go surfing," he said. "It makes your chances of getting good waves better."
It has also spoiled surfers. "People don't even get out of bed anymore. They just turn on their computer," he said.
In converting customers over to the Web, the company had two things going for it: a devoted audience, and a strong brand.
"The entire Surfline concept came out of (Collins) being a sailor," Wells said. "He was always into anything related to marine. It's just the first vertical we did was surf."
About a decade ago, Surfline bought Buoyweather.com to get into the marine services business. In 2008, Surfline beefed up its camera network, enhancing quality and bandwidth with subscription HD cameras. It built iPhone and iPad apps, and recently launched a TV app where viewers can watch in-house produced videos or stream cameras to watch their favorite beaches live on television.
Today, the company has 140 cameras around the world in places such as Portugal, Mexico and Puerto Rico. It just announced the ability to rewind footage up to five days, so people can see previous days' conditions or see themselves catching a wave on camera. Just last week, Surfline announced new high-definition cameras at four Orange County state beaches.

Apple denies 'rejecting' Google Voice for iPhone
Apple has been quiet about the details of its vetting system, which has been criticized as a black box by developers whose apps have been rejected. Some say they submitted apps and waited months, only to be rejected without much of a reason why.
The backlash has grown as some programs have slipped onto the app store that have raised eyebrows – including one game that mimicked a wailing baby and required users to shake the iPhone to extinguish the cries.
In its letter to the FCC, Apple disclosed some aspects of the review process. The company said it gets about 8,500 app submissions a week, some brand new and some updates to existing programs. Apple said more than 40 people work full-time to review the apps, and that at least two look at each one. The team reviews 95 percent of them within two weeks, and about 20 percent are not approved on the first try.
Apple said most of the rejections are due to glitches in the application itself, but that it also rejects programs that "degrade the core experience of the iPhone."
Google told the FCC that iPhone owners can use a Web browser version of Google Voice, but its features are limited. Google's response was redacted to cloak Apple's explanation for the rejection, and Google had no immediate comment on Apple's claim that it is still considering the program.
Apple and AT&T's letters also laid out their agreements regarding Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, programs for the iPhone. Such services let people make calls using Wi-Fi or the cell phone data network instead of using up calling minutes.
AT&T said that under their agreement, Apple would not approve a VoIP app without AT&T's consent. As time went on, AT&T said it told Apple that it does not object to VoIP programs that use Wi-Fi. Apple has approved VoIP applications from eBay Inc.'s Skype, among others, that work over Wi-Fi.
Apple said in its letter that it does not know if Google Voice uses VoIP.
In its letter, AT&T said it plans to take a "fresh look" at authorizing VoIP programs that use its 3G data network.

My fiancée and I loved this place! The owner (Brigid) was very personable and we felt as if we could have talked to her for days. I enjoyed how quiet the hotel was due to the location (10-15 minute drive from Killarney). Breakfast was very tasty.
The staff was very helpful and the hotel was very quit and clean.
Everything was great.
This is truly the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in. The grounds are exquisite, the rooms are spacious and well appointed and I have never encountered a staff that truly cannot do enough for you. This hotel is a reason alone to come to Ireland.
Nothing at all to say
clean,comfortable and friendly staff always helping out and solving problems
The Arbutus is a character establishment in many ways beyond décor - the staff are fabulous and raise the bar on 'service' to heights that many chains will find impossible to compete with. Our stay was a wonderful experience!
The location is outstanding. The hotel is a five minute walk from the train station in the heart of the downtown area.
The door required a key which had an extremely large key chain.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

If you lean towards a 28mm then an M2 isn't going to be much good unless you use an accessory viewfinder. That isn't itself a totally bad idea as you get a big fat 28mm window on the world, but it does slow things down when focusing in one window and composing in another. The M2 does however offer a very clear 35mm viewfinder frame.
Personally, and as a glasses wearer, I'd suggest an M4-P. It often isn't possible for a glasses wearer to see the whole frame in one go, but most soon learn to quickly and unconsciously scan the edges of the frame to see where things are. Glasses that can be pushed against your face with flexible frames are also a help.

Saharan Dust off Canary Islands
April 3, 2013
A graceful arc of Saharan dust is streaming off the coast of northwest Africa and sweeping out over the Atlantic Ocean and the Canary Islands in this Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) image from the Aqua satellite on February 18, 2004. Dust storms like this can be both helpful and harmful to different places and ecosystems. The dust acts like a fertilizer for ocean waters depleted of iron and other nutrients that marine plants need to grow, but it also can carry disease-causing bacteria and fungi, which damages coral reefs in the Caribbean. The dust itself can spread to North and South America and cause respiratory distress in people who are sensitive. Credit: Jacques Descloitres, MODIS Rapid Response Team, NASA/GSFC
