Brandie Davis's Page
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!
While I've done other fundraising walks in the past (...ok, 1 walk), this will be the first time walk for a dual purpose: to help raise money for needy furkids and to get up off my ass. :)
Since a lot of my friends and family are far, far away, this is the most efficient method to collect donations. YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO DONATE, though I might like you a little more if you do. How's that for a carrot? Yeah, I thought so. So if you happen to throw some $ my way for walking around the beautiful Sparks Marina, I thank you (so do the doe-eyed kittens and puppies and pit bulls and senior doggies at the Nevada Humane Society)!

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- When economic times get tough, finding dollars to donate can get tougher, but there are ways to make your charitable dollar stretch farther.
Certainly, plenty of people find a way to give, no matter what the broader economic trends. While charitable giving declines during economic slowdowns, it doesn't slow all that much.
The steepest decline in charitable giving in the past 40 years was in 1974, when charitable giving dropped 5.5%, said Patrick Rooney, interim executive director at the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University.
Charitable giving has increased on average 4.3% per year in non-recession years, and is estimated to be more than $306 billion in 2007. In years with eight months or more of recession, giving declined 2.7% on average.
"The good news is the bottom doesn't fall out, but realistically, we might anticipate some pain and suffering in the nonprofit sector," Rooney said.
Certainly, in the current economy it makes sense to consider your donations carefully. For instance, many might think twice before making "impulse charitable contributions," said Kim Wright-Violich, president of Schwab Charitable, a provider of donor-advised funds and charitable-trust services.
"For example, if a friend says, 'I sit on the board of this charity; won't you come to this event and write a check?' -- those you may give up or you may give slightly less," she said. "But for those organizations you have consistently supported for a long time ... people will try to make those contributions," she said. "They will give up other things first -- they'll give up on a new car or a vacation."
Still, there are some ways to make your charitable dollar go a little farther, or to delay the direct hit to your pocketbook right now.
Life insurance
If you can't give cash now, consider giving your whole or universal life insurance policy to a charity. "Many times somebody will have a life insurance policy with a cash value and they no longer need the policy so they will donate the policy to the charity," said Barry Picker of Picker, Weinberg & Auerbach, CPAs, in New York.
"The charity in many cases will just cash it in," Picker said. In that situation, the donor generally can claim a deduction for their basis in the policy, usually the amount of the premiums paid, Picker said. But he warned people to be careful if they've taken a loan against the insurance policy. The taxpayer "could end up, instead of having a charitable deduction, having taxable income because of the forgiveness of the debt." Talk to the charity and a tax expert before proceeding.
Or, you can apply for a new life insurance policy, or transfer an existing one, making the charity the policy owner and beneficiary. Then, the donor gives an amount equal to the premium to the charity each year. "The charity actually owns the policy," Picker said. The taxpayer is "making a contribution to the charity for the charity to pay the premium." The charity can take loans against the policy and receives the insurance benefit when the donor dies.
When making life-insurance-related charitable decisions, be wary and always consult the charity and a tax professional. "I've seen some questionable schemes that I would advise people to stay away from, having to do with third-party investors in life insurance," he said.
Stock gifts
It makes sense to give appreciated stocks -- you get the benefit of the tax deduction for a charitable contribution, plus you avoid capital-gains taxes.
But if, like many people these days, you're holding stocks at a loss, sell them and give the cash to charity, Wright-Violich said.

I thought I would give a shout out to Richard Hundhausen in anticipation of his new book. I've been helping to review the book as he is writing it and this is going to be a phenomenal piece of work! It will likely release in October and will surely be a staple for many of my coaching engagements. Pre-order yours today!
This is very cool! Flow of work across the team board with computer generated Burndown and column sums.
To quote the Scrum Guide, part of the Scrum Master's role is to "ensuring Scrum is understood and enacted." This is often interpreted as "enforcing" Scrum. I have found the use of "enforcement" to be challenging. I have seen it create adversarial environments. You will he Development Team members talk like this: (snotty tone) "The Scrum Master said we can't do that! (laugh)!" This is certainly not health behavior. But what should be done about it? Instead of enforcing Scrum, the Scrum Master should coach the team to follow the rules of Scrum. If the team wants to make a change to Scrum, use powerful questioning and dialog to discuss. If the team still wants to make changes even after the discussion, the Scrum Master may want to allow it as a learning experience. The Scrum Master will want to visibly track this as a team dysfunction (team whiteboard, wiki, sign in the team area, etc.). Then, during the next retrospective have the SM talk about the issues that arose by modifying Scrum. What does the team want to do to address these issues? Can we try bringing the Scrum concepts back in?
Certainly shuhari applies here, but sometimes keeping the team positive and talking is better than enforcing the rules.
I have done source code branching with a ton of teams. The pattern looks pretty much the same independent of what type of branching the team is doing. "We are doing some work that we don't want other teams to see or get impacted by." So it goes the team creates a branch to work on a PBI/feature, test some ideas in a Spike or begin the next version of the product. Work sails along swimmingly until the team has to merge the code with mainline (which happens 90% of the time). This is where all hell breaks loose. The team, working in isolation, has created a large amount of code that will no longer integrate with the changes that have happened along the way. At this point code is rewritten (not just refactored), new ideas are brought into the mix, tests are rewritten and so on. For those of you that have been through this, you know what I mean. Are there ways of dealing this this chaos? Sure!
I posted at the beginning of last year that you should always branch with caution. Having given this topic a bit more retrospection, I believe branching to be dysfunctional. Here's why. We know that as a product moves forward the knowledge about it moves forward as well. As two teams (or more) work in isolation, this knowledge diverges at what appears to be an exponential rate (you can even assume linear and get to the same place). When a branch is merged back to the mainline all the knowledge and assumptions are merged as well. This is where we have a problem. The teams need to "catch up" with each other's knowledge. From observation, the trick here seems to be to keep the teams collaborating on ALL the code ALL the time. That way, knowledge and assumptions are shared and merge conflicts are eliminated. This is the basis of Continuous Integration (CI). The teams should work together on a single mainline with the code being built and tested in near real-time. Keep the builds fast and consider multi-stage CI or Build Pipeline techniques as the number and type of tests grow.
The question at this point is, "How do I keep unfinished work out of my releases?" There are a couple answers/approaches here. The first is to use Feature Toggles. The concept here is pretty simple, as you begin working on a feature include a config switch that allows you to turn that feature off or make it invisible. Other approaches include the use of authorization to include/exclude features in releases and in modular applications (portals) include/exclude the widget. Along with the ability to turn chunks of code on and off, you will want to make sure you have a comprehensive set of tests and the corresponding automation.
As you begin to walk down this path you will see that you are actually on your way to Continuous Delivery (CD). While a full CD approach is not for everyone, it does offer some really great ideas for keeping you product in a "always shippable" state.
UPDATE 8/27/2012: Fellow PST, Ryan Cromwell started a discussion on Scrum.org regarding this post. Check it out!
There are a ton of ways to handle retrospectives. Esther Derby and Diana Larsen discuss a bunch of them in their book "Agile Retrospectives" published in 2006. While many of the techniques that the authors mention in the book are good for creating dialog (Force Field Analysis, Five Whys, Circle of Questions, etc.), they can often produce a hefty set of action items. I have seen teams walk away with 70 action items that they wanted to work on in coming Sprints. Inevitably, teams with this many items to work on feel like they are trying to eat and elephant all at once. In these cases, and with new teams that I coach, I suggest borrowing an idea from the Theory of Constraints (ToC) and limit your Work in Progress (WIP). To make this simple, I suggest limiting the number of action items you take away from your retrospective to one. While it may seem like a small amount of things to work on, it gets teams in the habit of improving at least one thing every Sprint. Many teams find that fixing the highest priority items will often make lower priority items moot. If you are struggling with creating a culture of continuous improvement, try a KISS retrospective and pick only one thing to work on in the next Sprint.
I will be presenting my "Agile Economics" deck at ALM Chicago on February 23rd. Here is a summary of the talk:
The software development industry in embracing Agile in a big way. But why? Most certainly it allows a higher rate of success, encourages better collaboration, use of tools and does a better job embracing change. But why do the techniques work from a economics and finance standpoint? A number of people have tried to provide an answer to this question, but they often come in the form of complex equations and long discussions of finance models. In this presentation, Chad Albrecht will provide some very easy to understand economic models that provide a basis for why Agile outperforms traditional techniques. Additionally, Chad will demonstrate a side-by-side cost model of an Agile vs. Traditional project. If you are considering Agile in your organization and have partial or full P&L responsibility, this presentation will provide you with many valuable tools.

UPDATE 4/15/12: Here is a link to a video of the presentation.
I've been using and experimenting with Scrum, XP and other Agile ideas since the late 90's. One pattern I've seen at least a few times is the idea of the "weak team." This happens when a manager takes a larger group of people (20-30), throws a problem at them and says, "Self-organize!" While many times this works well, other times you will find the talented team-members pooling together and abandoning the less skilled or more junior team members to form the "weak team." As a leader, what should you do? First, you have to ascertain if the members of the "weak team" simply lack skill or if there are interpersonal issues which are getting in the way. As I mentioned in my last post, if the issue is simply skill you can choose to train them. If the issues are intrapersonal, throw your coach hat on and get busy. Once you have a plan of attack to address the issue of the "weak team," you have to decide how to turn the "weak team" into the "strong team!" You can do this by adding stronger team members to the existing team or redistributing team members to other teams. This should be done in cooperation with the Product Owner to ensure that you have the right cross-functional talent on each team.
There is a misunderstanding of Scrum and other processes and frameworks that anyone that follows the "rules" will be successful. Simply write some code in a two week Sprint and show it at the Sprint Review and magically all problems disappear. The people that believe this are missing a few key points. 1) Creation of complex software takes skilled people. 2) Leadership is required (notice I am not saying management is required). 3) Both the leaders and team members must be willing to admit they were wrong for continuous improvement to take hold. I used to make the assumption as it relates to the first one that leaders understood they needed talented people to build software. I was wrong. To go back to my opening premise, many leaders think process can replace skill. This is like taking a group of high-school students, putting them in a hospital operating room and saying, "OK, self-organize and perform brain surgery on this patient!" Try as they might, without the proper training, experience, coaching and knowledge all you will end up with is dead bodies. The moral of the story is put skill before process. If you have a team member or members that lack the skill to write loosely coupled, refactorable, unit-testable code you have three options, train them, move them to another team where they have skill alignment or fire them. Don't kid yourself into thinking there are other options.
Over the last few years I have found myself drawing the same Scrum diagram on the whiteboard over and over again. A simple, no-frills, diagram that shows the basic ideas of Scrum. This is that diagram.
I'm spending quite a bit of time these days helping organizations implement Agile methodologies. As such I hear the same set of questions and see the same set of issues over and over again. One of the issues I see quite often is the "long sprint." To explain what I mean by this I'll use a hypothetical conversation with a Team Lead new to Agile.
Team Lead: "How do you deal with the fact sprint planning and reviews take so long?"
Me: "How long is long?"
Team Lead: "Sometimes a week!"
Me: "How long are your sprints?"
Team Lead: "Usually 3-6 weeks."
Me: "How did you determine that 3-6 weeks was a good length?"
Team Lead: "Because we couldn't spend 2 weeks out of every month not coding! We use longer Sprints to avoid spending so much time in review and planning."
For those of you that are experienced in Agile, you should see a few problems here. For now, let's just focus on the "long sprint" concept. The "long sprint" seems to manifest in organizations that are always sprinting. First off, this is in direct conflict with the name sprint. Sprints should be just that, a focused exertion of energy over a short period of time…2-3 weeks max. So how do we solve our Team Lead's issue with spending too much time in review and planning and not enough time writing code? Enter the "Release."
A Release is a means of building larger blocks of functionality in multiple Sprints. (usually 4-6) Some Agile methodologies (XP) implement this concept directly, others do not. (Scrum) There are many reasons to use the concept of a Release, a select few are:
The next logical question is "Do we create a Release Backlog?" I agree with Mike Cohn in this case and would say no. I do however, use the concept of a Release Plan or Release Roadmap. According to Mike a Release Plan contains:
I would also add the following:
Using the concept of a Release in Agile organizations can be an extremely effective way to increase efficiency through the elimination of waste. I will try to post more on this topic in the future. As always, let me know your thoughts.

Washington, D.C.
Washington, D.C.'s Racial Polarization Is Not That Bad
September 10, 2010
It's still a close race, but the odds are that Washington, D.C., mayor Adrian Fenty will lose to D.C. Council chairman Vincent Gray in the dispositive Democratic primary next Tuesday.
September 10, 2010
Journalists often annoyingly inflate events in their own backyards, fallaciously treating the local and provincial as mega-trends and national harbingers. Those of us who practice political journalism in Washington, D.C., have been somewhat immune from this tendency. Our city government, with the still-looming figure of a former crackhead mayor and the not-very-distant memory of a federally imposed control board, is way too sui generis for that. But for once, Washington has emerged as an urban vanguard—a home to bold and laudable reform.
Taking The Weigel Challenge
September 07, 2010
Dave Weigel wants to know which hack pundit will draw a parallel between Adrian Fenty's (predicted) loss in the Washington, D.C. mayoral primary and the political travails of President Obama: My question: Who'll be the first pundit to discuss Fenty's defeat as a sign of things to come for Barack Obama? Fenty endorsed Obama in 2008, and the two men have been outwardly friendly with one another, and among the reasons he's expected to lose are arrogance and some misplaced spending. Voila: Instant comparison! ... So where does the first "Fenty = Obama" post-mortem come from?
Beck on Top
August 29, 2010
Almost no one who attended Saturday's "Restoring Honor" rally on the National Mall seems able to cogently explain what, exactly, took place. Was it a thinly disguised political rally? A triumph of Made in America inspirational treacle? A modern-day religious revival? When probed by reporters, happy participants and skeptical observers alike struggled to make sense of the prayerful parade that saw Tony LaRussa, Sarah Palin, and Eveda King take turns at a podium between prerecorded voiceovers about crossroads, awakenings, and miracles.
The Sorrow Of The Oligarch
August 27, 2010
Right-wing billionaire David Koch feels persecuted: David Koch, a billionaire whose funding has helped support grassroots organizations tied to the tea parties, slammed the "liberal media" today at the Americans for Prosperity (AFP) summit in Washington, D.C. "Over the last year, my brother Charles Koch and I have been attacked non-stop in the liberal media," he said. Particular attention was reserved for Jane Mayer's New Yorker piece, which argued that the Kochs funded groups like AFP for personal gain.
Boehner's Deficit Blather
August 09, 2010
If you're advocating permanent extension of the Bush tax cuts, and you get asked about the impact on the budget, you have a few options. The first is to insist that deficits don't matter. The second is to argue that tax cuts cause revenues to rise. #1 is tricky given that pretty much everybody who favors the Bush tax cuts has spent the last year and a half painting the national debt as a danger likely to destroy the American way of life. #2 is starting to draw intense skepticism from the national press crops. That leaves you with option three -- blather incoherently: MR.
The Taxman Cometh
July 30, 2010
Last week, USA Today published a story about all the "ordinary folks" who might get hit with the estate tax. A $1 million exemption would affect a lot of families that are well out of Steinbrenner's league. "You take a home, an IRA or 401(k) retirement account, some other savings and you get to $1 million pretty easily," says Richard Behrendt, senior estate planner for Robert W. Baird and a former IRS attorney. Families who live in areas with high property values are particularly vulnerable, says Clint Stretch, tax principal for Deloitte Tax who lives outside Washington, D.C.

A text message instructed me to report to a midtown Manhattan sports bar, where I would find the members of the expedition recharging before the next day's exertions. I was meeting two of them for the first time, yet, even over the din, conversation was natural and easy. Dan, lean and earnest, spoke of his last assignment in the Army and added, with that distant, intense gaze I've now seen many times, that his old unit had recently deployed again.
Homage to Catalonia. Disregard Your Rulers

Islam: Unmentionable in D.C.
July 14, 2010
The recent suicide bombing against Pashtun tribal elders in Mohmand, a region not far from Peshawar, the capital city of Pakistan's North-West Frontier Province, made my mind return to conversations I'd had in Peshawar in 2000. Westerners could then roam the non-restricted areas of the province without much fear.

He then took another knock to the same area in Perth last weekend against the Springboks.
In a statement, Wallaby coach Eddie Jones said: "Matt showed an enormous amount of courage to get through the Test in Perth and while he's made some improvements, it's not enough to ensure he'll be available for selection.
"He will return to Canberra [on Saturday], and continue to receive treatment on the injury.
"Depending on how he responds to treatment he could be out for anywhere between one to five weeks, so the rest will do him good."
Fly-half Elton Flatley will miss the rest of the season and the mini-European tour in October-November suffering side-effects from concussion so Jones may consider adding another inside back to the squad.
In other injury news, reserve hooker Stephen Moore is the main concern at the moment with an injury to his lower leg.

In July 2008, 3.4 million youth aged 16 to 24 years old were unemployed—not working, but actively looking for work and available to take a job. The youth unemployment rate was 14.0 percent, which was the highest rate for July since 1992.
The increase in youth unemployment in the summer of 2008 partly reflected a weaker job market. The July 2008 unemployment rates for young men (15.0 percent), women (12.8 percent), whites (12.3 percent), blacks (24.8 percent), and Hispanics (16.0 percent) increased from a year earlier. The jobless rate for Asians (8.4 percent) was about unchanged from July 2007.

Skagens Museum
The collection of Skagens Museum include over 1800 paintings, sketches, graphic works, sculptures and ceramics, mainly from the period 1870-1930. From the end of the 1870s and up to the turn of the century Skagen was an international meeting place for young artists. During the 1880s Skagen was transformed into an artists' colony where there was room for both work and leisure. Already in their lifetime the Skagen artists achieved world fame at significant exhibitions held abroad.
The most prominent Skagen artists are the Danish painters Anna and Michael Ancher and P.S. Krøyer. But also artists such as Holger Drachmann, who was both poet and painter, Viggo Johansen, Carl Locher, Laurits Tuxen and the Nordic artists Christian Krohg and Oscar Björck all contributed to putting Skagen on the map.
Skagens Museum was founded in 1908 in order to collect and preserve the works of the famous artists' colony in the surroundings in which they were created. Since 1928 the museum has resided in a building designed by the architect Ulrik Plesner. The Garden House, where many of the artists used to rent lodgings, and the old grain-drying warehouse where P.S. Krøyer established his first studio in Skagen can both be found in the museum's atmospheric and evocative garden. Extensions to the museum were built in 1982 and 1989.

Smell like the internet, HelloGiggles Style
Have you ever wondered what your favorite websites would smell like if it were scratch-n-sniff? Sure you have! That's a perfectly normal thought. Sadly, technology has not granted us this wondrous ability and we are left to imagine it instead. Turns out, I have a pretty vivid imagination and as I was reading HelloGiggles, the scents just came to me. I started to imagine that the creativity, humor and general good vibes would mesh together into a lovely, delicately floral scent. Then I had a fun idea! Since it's the last week of Lotion Making Month, we need a HelloGiggles inspired lotion recipe.
I got busy brewing and blending in the kitchen and came up with something soft and sweet, with just a kick of girl power tough enough to melt leathery skin into a puddle of rose petals. Use the recipe below to mix up a batch of your own HelloGiggles inspired lotion and you too, can smell like the internet….HelloGiggles style. *inhales* Ahhh, I love the smell of giggles in the morning.
Softening Rose, Apple and Honey Face Creme
The two main base oils for this lotion (apricot kernel and grapeseed) are light and fast absorbing, so they don't leave you feeling greasy. These oils are wonderful for oily skin (like mine) because they replace the oil that your face loses when you wash it. You may think that losing oil on oily skin is a good thing, but by replacing it with these beneficial oils, you slow down your skin's natural production of sebum. Less sebum equals less shiny forehead.
The honey in this recipe is a natural humectant and will draw moisture from the air to your skin, ensuring it stays moisturized all day long. The floral water made directly with dried rose petals, will act as a natural toner that helps balance your skin's pH. This can help prevent breakouts, blotchiness and skin tone discolorations.
Base or Carrier Oils:
- 5 tbsp. apricot kernel oil
- 2 tbsp. + 1 tsp. grapeseed oil
- 1 tbsp. coconut oil
- 1 tbsp. beeswax
- 1/2 c. floral water, made with 1/4 c. dried apple slices and 2 c. dried rose petals (how to brew floral water)
- 1 tbsp. aloe vera gel (how to harvest fresh aloe vera gel)
- 1/4 tsp. desert salt or cosmetic-grade borax
- 1 tsp. honey
- 5-7 drops of vitamin E oil
How To Make Lotion From Scratch
In my week 1 video tutorial, "How To Make Lotion", I walked you through the lotion making process using easy, step-by-step directions. Replace the base oils and waters shown in the video with the recipe above and follow the directions in the video. From start to finish (not including time spent making a floral water), it takes me about 25 minutes to make a batch of lotion.
Once you're done, pour your lotion in your favorite container. Remember our chat about containers from last week? Make sure it's opaque to keep the lotion at its freshest!
To Use
Use this lotion on your face in the morning or evening, after washing and applying a toner to it. Gently apply a thin layer of lotion, evenly over your skin's surface and don't panic when it initially appears greasy. Wait about 10 minutes (I like to make a cup of tea while I'm waiting), then gently massage your face. You'll notice that most of the lotion has dried and absorbed, your skin will feel hydrated but not greasy. Rub the rest of the lotion in and that's it. Your skin will thank you for it!
I hope you enjoyed Lotion Making Month, next week we'll start our month of "One Ingredient, One Great Fix". Until then, happy brewing!

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (CBS.MW) - Pets.com is dead, and investors can lay a good part of the blame on the company's sock-puppet mascot.
The company's fun-loving sock-puppet puppy's been living the good life. He rode in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade last year. He's appeared during the Super Bowl. And in his spare time, he's gained additional notoriety by sparring with TV host Conan O'Brien's mascot dog Triumph.
To investors chagrin, most of the little mutt's exploits have been very costly to investors. The dog-puppet was by far Pets' most expensive employee. Pets.com IPET spent about $17 million in the June quarter on sales and marketing, according to a report by Pegasus Research in New York: Much of it was on the pooch.
But in that quarter, the company reported nearly half that amount -- $8.8 million -- in total revenue.
"It was an expensive sock puppet: So much for using a used sock," said Greg Kyle, president of Pegasus.
Prior to June, Pets.com had about $37.2 million in cash, Kyle said. The trouble is, it burned through about $22 million of that in the second quarter. It was only a matter of time until the company ran out of money.
That time was Tuesday, when the company said that it's starting to wind down its operations. Pets' assets - including rights to the dog - are to be liquidated. The company plans to lay off approximately 255 of its 320 employees.
Pets joins a list of recent dot-com failures. MotherNature.com MTHR also went under Tuesday, saying its liquidation will give back shareholders $13.4 million, or 85 cents a share, before the end of the year.
Earlier this week, Furniture.com called it quits. And Eve.com, and Beautyjungle.com went under recently.
The brief history of Pets.com differs little from the tales of other Internet-era failures. The company went public in February. And like most dot-com retailers, Pets employees quickly found itself in a survival race. The company faced intense pressure to turn consistent profit quickly. To do it, the company expected to rapidly build sales, driven by blanket advertising.
Little did Pets executives realize that turning an immediate profit would become all the more important, since backers turned away from the company when the dot-com downturn rocked 'Net retailers.
To top off its problems, Pets.com probably was stuck with ads it'd already paid for, pundits said. The company was still running commercials with its sock puppet earlier this month.
Empathizers may say that Pets.com was a victim of the market. But that's more or less an excuse, pundits say. The possibility of dried-up funds is a scenario for which executives, including the company's CEO Julie Wainwright, should have planned.
"When you're running a company, you have to take into account that the markets might not be accessible," Kyle said. "They thought they could tap the markets at any time, thinking it was an open checkbook. That's not the way you run a company."
Without badly needed extra funds, Pets was in the doghouse. There was no other way for the company to survive, since it couldn't cut expenses fast enough to keep in business.
The amount Pets.com had to spend to get its customers was far out of line. In its most recently reported quarter, Pets spent about $14.7 million to acquire 93,000 new customers, according to Kyle's records. That's about $158 a customer. Pets.com had about 570,000 customers at the time of its demise.

The Republic is dead. Our government has been overtaken by a group of socialist oligarchs without a shot being fired, just as Khrushchev predicted. The president, Eric Holder and many other puppets, including members of Congress and the judiciary, should be prosecuted for treason, given a fair trial and, if found guilty, they should be executed.
Why such a statement? Because of the facts.
The above took an oath to obey our Constitution and they have broken that oath. They are destroying our country as fast as possible, and economic and financial collapse is imminent. Democrats and Republicans are both guilty. Today, I'm addressing Americans who care about their souls, their children and grandchildren.
A few facts starting in the 1950s:
Joe McCarthy said our media was being infiltrated by communists. He was right.
In 1969, Dr. Richard Day revealed plans in place to form a new system of government short list: Tax-funded abortion. Homosexuality to be encouraged. Anything goes. Government-controlled health care. Suppressing cancer cures. Eliminating elderly. Dumbed-down schools. Food control. Old religions will have to go. Financial control. Eliminating families.
And last, if all fails, introduce terrorism. 9/11?
Yes, it's all planned, and they think you are stupid for not realizing the obvious.
My real worry: When collapse happens and people are killing others for food, the Christians may say this is the end times but what if it's not? It may be just a chastisement from God. My decision is not to sit back silently any longer, but to speak out, fight against evil and inform others so they may gird themselves in times of crisis.
Retrieve your money, keep your guns and don't lose your soul.
You can disagree, but you can't change the facts.

Texas A&M defensive lineman Polo Manukainiu posted a chilling Tweet before embarking on what would be his last trip, on Monday.
As I told you earlier, he was one of three teens to lose their lives when the Toyota Sequoia they were in rolled over on the U.S. 550.
The player's high school teammate and cousin Gaius Vaenuku also died in the crash. The latter was set to start playing football for Utah this year.
"22 hour drive back to Texas on no sleep - oh my," Manukainiu announced before leaving Utah for Texas, as relayed by Bleacher Report.
According to Aggie Athletics, Manukainiu and 13-year-old Andrew Uhatafe were ejected from the car when it rolled over a few times and died on the spot. Vaenuku was pronounced dead as he was being taken to a hospital.

Kingston posted a couple of pictures showing the prototype versions of its upcoming memory modules that will support liquid cooling. This will be a variation of Kingston's well established HyperX memory line and is currently in testing stage in the company's laboratories. According to the company itself, the test results are already proving quite satisfactory.
The memory maker is not the only one with the idea of taking advantage of the holiday period rather poor in the news department, with Gigabyte, NVIDIA, AMD, OLPC, Toshiba, Cooler Master and BenQ, among others, also revealing or detailing current or upcoming technologies and/or products of their own.
Unlike some of its peers, however, Kingston has not made public any kind of specific details, leaving end-users to their own speculative discussions on the clock speeds, temperatures and voltage modifications the memory will be able to handle. From the photographs, one can at least venture a guess as to how the mechanism will function and just how DIMM chips can be liquid-cooled.
The construction seems to indicate that the only part of the upcoming memory modules, which will actually make any contact with the used liquid is the heat spreader. This means that Kingston won't be revealing any new type of memory chips, most likely using the DDR3 memory type and standard print circuits approved by JEDEC.
The pictures show the DRAM liquid-cooling mechanism being tested on DDR3 DIMMs paired with an X58 motherboard. Even despite this configuration, the higher probability is that the new memory will be aimed at LGA 1156 or even AM3-powered configurations.
Kingston did not even allude to the launch date or price, but the fact that the product is already in lab testing stage seems to indicate that the actual availability of the new HyperX is only a few weeks away.

Porn Valley- Leah Luv is cute, smart, has a great body and a tongue like a razor. I had a conversation with Luv the other night. She's now working for Anarchy, has pretty much given up working in front of the camera and is now directing for the company. Luv was extremely candid in her comments, almost to the point where I have to offer a disclaimer- especially when Luv gets on the subject of her former friend Hillary Scott.
Luv has been keeping busy working in the Anarchy office and the first movie she directed for the company, Leah Luv: Sweet, My Ass, got "an amazing review" from AVN, she states. She's about to shoot Part 2. Perhaps the end of this month. Besides that Luv's helped Johnny Thrust direct a movie called Booty and The Geek. Luv is laughing as we speak.
"You should see what I'm driving," she says. "I look like a dude. I'm driving around in this big ol' monster truck 4x4 with dirt tires. It's huge. It's ridiculous. It's too big. But I love rolling in this big ass truck. It's fun for me."
As far as performing, not driving, Luv said she's done except for a couple of scenes for Anarchy.
"But I don't have any intent on coming back to the business as a performer," she says. Luv concedes that people will find that hard to believe and she was even told that by the people at Anarchy.
"They said I was good at what I did and I was going to help the company. But even if I wanted to go back to performing, they would find a reason to keep me there because I'm a big asset, now." The last scene Luv shot was about a month ago. After that she called Gold Star and asked them to take her off the site that she was done.
"I decided I was done with it, I'm not going back and I don't foresee a reason for me to go back," states Luv. "I'm financially stable. I'm doing good. I'm happy. I'm very intelligent. I'm going to go to school for interior design and criminal law."
"What does that mean- that you're going to put sofas inside jail cells?" Luv is asked.
"No, curtains," Luv chuckles. "They have nothing to do with each other. My outlook on it is when you go to school you randomly select what you want to study. I don't want to get stuck in a position where I choose criminal law and have to deal with a crime scene, can't stomach it and decide to quit. And then I don't have anything to back me. I want to study a couple of different majors- that way I'll always have something to fall back on. I have a degree now- I just want more. It's business-clerical. It's like what I do at Anarchy but a little more integrated. I type 91 words a minute. I know Microsoft- filing, secretarial, legal documents, that kind of stuff."
Her reasons for getting into the business go beyond the standard fan answer, Luv says.
"I had a kid when I was 17 and I had cancer. I had a lot of health issues. I was already a stripper and figured I was pretty much selling my ass anyway and that it wouldn't hurt to take it a step further. It might actually help me to fix my situation. Which it most certainly did. I have definitely taken care of a lot of my health issues. I've had my cancer treated. I had a partial hysterectomy. I did everything I needed to do. I moved into a nice neighborhood. I got a car and got myself situated to where my son is set for his life. I'm healthy."
"I tried to get out of the gutter not into it," Luv adds. "I started off on the wrong foot and ended up on both feet. I think the business has been very positive for me. I can't honestly say that porn is a bad industry and I can't say I don't like the people in the business and that I don't miss the business. Honestly I do but I don't miss it enough to go back."
Luv said she's asked other people, out of curiosity, their reasons for getting into the business.
"I wanted to see where other girls are mentally. They're like oh I love to fuck- I'm sexy- then go work for Victoria Secret if that's the case, girl. At least you're not going to worry about HIV over there." Luv suspects the public persona is of people in the business being mentally unstable.
"That's an insider's point of view as well," she adds.
"I don't see a lot of stable people in this business- mentally, not physically, not financially- mentally. The people in this business are just lunatics in one way or the other. We can go to the most intellectual people that are just mentally unstable. Hell, I'm unstable. There's also a lot of nice people in this business and a lot of people really willing to help you when you need help. There are people that are a lot of fun to be around and party with and hang out with away from the business. I've made some good friends in this business that I think are going to be lasting friendships."
Luv's history with Anarchy began with a non-exclusive contract.
"I was asked what are my goals- I said I don't want to sell my ass for a living. I said I wanted to make money and to feel self confident and happy. I said I wanted to produce, I want to own my own company, I don't want to be in front of a camera all day long selling my ass. That's not what I want to do. I want use my brains here, not my ass."
Luv, in turn, was offered an opportunity to direct. Her first title sold very well with great reviews. With a company reorganization, Luv was also offered a chance to work in the office.
"Okay, but I can't do it full time with the amount of money you're going to pay me," Luv told the company.
"I have to support my family." Luv worked several months part time and when it was realized how great a job she was doing, a better offer was put on the table.
"I said if you're willing to pay me this figure monthly, I'll continue to work here," Luv told them. "It turned into a full time job and I'm really happy. Just everyone is like brothers and sisters. It's like family and I get along with everyone. It's a nice environment to work in and I'm much happier. I love it."
"If you're going to write a book about this business, what would some of the dramatic chapters be about?" she's asked.
"I would have to say relationships, drugs, alcohol and money," is her reply. "This business is kind of like rock n' roll. I had relationships that went bad. I never got intimate, really, with anyone inside the industry, though. I've always tried to keep it away from the business. And I found that does not work. Men on the outside don't want to wake up in the morning and in the back of their minds, go, hmm, my girlfriend's getting gangbanged by six black guys today. I'm four inches long and they're all 14-inches long. And I wonder if I satisfy her and my dick is big enough for her. It's human nature to have all of those questions when one party is out selling their ass for a living even though a lot of people in this business don't like to word it that way. But that's what it is. You go to work. You take your clothes off. You bend over. You shove a dick up your ass. You get a paycheck and go home. What do you call it? Selling your ass, maybe?"
Luv dated one guy in porn- Van Damage.
"He's a really great guy and I love Van to death," she says. "Always have. I have nothing bad to say about him. He's an amazing person. A great personality, a great character, just fun-loving, great to be around. But Van is an older man and I have a little boy. And Van has had his fair share with kids and wives an so forth. You can't try and make a grown man settle down."
Luv's also willing to concede that you can't have a serious relationship in porn and expect a commitment and settle down.
"It's not one of those kinds of lives," she sighs. "But I wouldn't say I've had anything dramatic in this business other than Hillary Scott. That was the only drama I've had in this business other than people love to catch you when you're drunk and take pictures of you. They did that to me a lot. And I'm not an alcoholic but if I go to a club and drunk it's guaranteed I'm going to get fucked up because I came to get fucked up. That's what I went to the clubs for. I'm a single mother. I have a grown kid and I want to relax, chill out and remember that life is actually fun sometimes. So I would go out and party. People would take pictures of me smashed when my eyes were crossed and I couldn't see straight. But I never got into the drug scenario. I saw a lot of other people go through stuff, though."
"Since you brought her up, you and Hillary Scott were pretty good buddies at one time."
"Hillary and I don't talk at all," says Luv. "We don't communicate at all. I'm really glad to hear that she's going back to Chicago because her daughter might actually get to know who her mommy is."
"I thought she had this million dollar contract with SexZ Pictures," I tell Luv.
"I don't think it's true," Luv answers. "I read it on Adultfyi but from my personal opinion, Hillary doesn't have the strength to stay under contract for five years. Her asshole and her pussy aren't going to last another five years because they're blown out now and it's only been a year and a half. I don't see her asshole holding up. It's disgusting now and she already has odor problems [this is the first I've heard of this] down there and most of the performers in this business don't want to work with her. No matter how expensive her contract is, they can't force a guy or a girl to want to have sex with her. Even when I was her best friend, prior to the fight, she was on my no list. When your best friend is on your no list you can't expect other people to want you on your yes list."
According to Luv, what prompted their blow out is the fact that Scott came over to her house one night in July, 3:30 in the morning.
"I had company and she's a very jealous, very feisty brat," Luv contends.
"She wasn't happy with the fact I had company. So she threw a little hissy fit. I told her I'm leaving so you can either go to bed or you can stay. I don't give a shit but I'm not dealing with your attitude. She was like fuck you, you're a fucking bitch, you're a fucking cunt. She said Brandon Iron was coming to get her. I asked her how long is it going to be before he gets here? She goes, soon; she rolls her eyes at me and snapped her hand around like a little black girl.
"I said that doesn't work for me. I need a time frame. I'm not going to sit around and wait on somebody who may not be here in an hour, I don't know. Give me a time frame. She said, fuck you. I don't have to give you shit, I'll wait outside. I said that's perfect. My company got ready to go so I'm like, let's go. She goes, fuck you, bitch. I'm not waiting outside in the cold. Keep in mind this is July 11th, 2006 and four in the morning. At midnight it was 104 degrees. Do you think it got cold in those four hours? She was wearing a skimpy little dress so it couldn't have been too cold."
According to Luv, Scott then went off on her.
"Her little ass comes off my couch and gets right in my face," Luv continues. She and Scott began arguing about whose face whose ass was in.
"She pushed me- that was it. But I brushed it off," states Luv. "I let it go because she was my best friend. And I'm not one to hurt my friends. I went to swing on her and she grabs me by my hair. I picked her up, carried her across my house, slammed her up against the wall; and I body slammed her on the floor. I jumped on top of her and my friends started pulling me off her. I then swung on my friend and hit him in the mouth. I'm like get off of me, dude, I'm going to whip her ass. I started to get ghetto. As he let me go, Hillary looked like a lizard, she took off out the front door leaving her purse, her credit card, passport, everything on my couch."
Scott came back later for her things and asked Luv if she was now going to talk to her "or not."
"I was, like, 'or not.' I'm going to say the same thing to you I said last night- get the fuck out of my house, bitch. She tried to step up to me again and I jumped at her. I was, like, guess what bitch- nobody to pull me off of you this time. You want to fight now? Let's fucking go. I jumped at her and she hauled ass out the door. Then she turned around and said, it's so pathetic that you have to act this childish. You should get over it.
"Get over it? Have you lost your fucking mind? This little girl is 5'1". She's an 82 pound, anorexic little tweaker and has the nerve to tell me to calm down? I'm 5'7" and 138 pounds. I'm like, dude, you're really pushing the wrong buttons here, bitch. Because wherever you were raised in some trailer park on the east coast, I was raised in downtown LA by myself on the street. I will beat your ass then I'll tell my homegirls to come over here and beat it again. You're in my territory. If I was in Chicago I could see you talking shit. But right now you're in LA and you've got nobody to back you up. And this whole city has got my back."
"Hillary should go back to Chicago and let her daughter meet her mother," Luv suggests. "Because she's pathetic and she's letting some drug addict take care of her daughter while he pawns her off on his mom and dad. You chose to be a mom but you ran away from that. Why don't you quit only caring about yourself and put some consideration to things that are more important in life?"
All of that being said, Scott began crying, according to Luv, with her asking Luv how could she use her child against her.
"I was like, fuck you. How dare I? How dare you. At least my son knows who is mother is. When I go home at night I go home with a little boy. I don't go home by myself, get fucked up, sniff coke and smoke meth and be a crackhead."
Luv said she made an attempt to get the friendship back on the rails.
"But she continued to push me," says Luv. "It got to the point where I told her I don't owe you anything. But according to the rest of the business I put her out at 4 in the morning in the cold naked and drunk and I'm a horrible person."

You need to give her something else to think about - so start with a shoulder fore at the walk then change to haunches in, back to shoulder fore, throw in leg yield and/or half pass - all at the walk.
The idea is when she fails to listen to a quiet half hat you make her work harder and engage her mind - take it off her buddy being gone and onto what you're asking her to do.
Don't "stay" in the movement (shoulder fore, haunches in, leg yield, half pass, etc.) too long or you'll loose her mind - once you get her into the movement do about 10 feet then ask for a different movement. Alternate walking with halting (square with her butt underneath herself but don't ask her to remain quietly standing more than 2 seconds or she'll get wiggly) and trotting (forward not a western jog) - again around 10 feet or so.

Contrary to popular belief TNG blew up the most shuttles. Voyager being second. DS9 was relatively safe in 3rd. Might not have been even 3rd if TOS or ENT ran a full seven years.
As interesting as that is, I think the point was that Rio Grande was the only runabout on DS9 to never crash or get destroyed.
FYI, spoiler for TrekLit....
After DS9 is destroyed and a new DS9-II is being constructed, the runabout used to bring the crew to the new station for the first is, you guessed it, the Rio Grande!!!

Carbon Taxes & Nuclear DebatesDecember 30th, 2008
The global economic collapse has shown the folly of letting Wall Street traders run the world. The result is a wake-up call to those who believed that climate change could be fixed by carbon credits in the global market. The alternative is a carbon tax. Earthbeat host Daphne Wysham speaks to Charles Komanoff of the Carbon Tax Center.
Then, a debate at the National Press Club in Washington, DC between two environmental leaders on the merits and problems of relying on nuclear power to fight global warming. Patrick Moore is the co-chair of the Clean and Safe Energy Coalition, he debated Arjun Makhijani, the president of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research.

ADHD and College: Promoting Positive Outcomes
In this section:
Understanding Your Rights in College
Preparing for College
Disclosing your Disorder
See also Obtaining Accommodations in College.
The college experience can be a challenging adventure for any student as he or she navigates through making new friends, achieving academic success, learning to live independently and planning the future. If you're living with ADHD, the additional responsibility of managing your condition and its symptomschallenges with organization and time management, challenges with writing skills, difficulty focusing on goals and high frustration levelscan make this transition time seem overwhelming. Generally, schools that work well for students living with ADHD have small class sizes, classroom participation and dedicated faculty members.
However, students living with ADHD can be successful in any college as long as they have the right supportsfrom a network of friends to individualized accommodations and strategies.
Joanne Johnson: My Story
He is 20 years old now. My husband was always an over achiever, but would start projects and never finish them. We would go camping and friends would call our campsite the ADHD campsite because it was so creative and organized. ADHD has really mostly been a positive thing in our lives. You're always hit with something from all angles, but its more fun than a boring life!
I became involved with NAMI Mercer, N.J., after my son was also diagnosed with bipolar disorder around fifth grade. Read more.
Understanding Your Rights in College
In high school, you may have been receiving services and accommodations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This law no longer applies in post-secondary educationthis means no more individualized education programs (IEPs) or IEP teams.
Instead, as a college student living with ADHD, you are covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Both of these laws require schools to provide you with reasonable accommodations if you disclose your disability. However, these laws do not specify a process for obtaining accommodations like IDEA does, so each college has its own procedures to obtain accommodations based on its interpretation of the laws. In college, you are responsible for learning these procedures, disclosing that you live with ADHD if you plan to request accommodations, requesting, obtaining and revising any accommodations you think are necessary each semester and monitoring your academic progress. There is no IEP team to do these things for you.
It is also important to understand federal privacy laws, including the Health Insurance and Portability Act (HIPAA) and Family Educational Rights Privacy Act (FERPA). These laws govern the information that is protected in your medical and educational records, who they can be shared with and when.
Understanding Your Insurance
Historically, students covered under their parents insurance plan had to enroll in college fulltime to remain covered after age 18. Thus, those who had to take less than a full course load because of their disability, including ADHD, risked being removed from their parents insurance plan.
However, under the Health Care Reform law, effective September 26, 2010, young adults are now allowed to stay on their parents plan until they turn 26 years old, regardless of their student enrollment status and even if they no longer live with their parents or are not a dependent on a parents tax return. In the case of existing group health plans, this right does not apply if the young adult is offered insurance through their employer.
To learn more about your rights on campus, check out Campus Mental Health: Know Your Rights.
Preparing for College
The first step to succeeding in college is being prepared. The sooner you start preparing, the easier it will be to transition to college. This includes identifying the resources, services and supports that exist at your college and in the community that surrounds it. The more upfront research you do, the better equipped you will be to address any challenges that arise. Here are some action steps you can take to prepare yourself for the transition to college:
- Research psychological and psychiatric services on campus. Most college websites offer an overview of the mental health services and supports provided on campus through their counseling center. You can also access this information at ULifeline, an online resource for college mental health. You may also want to call or visit your colleges counseling center to make sure it offers adequate services tailored to your needs. Some questions you will want to ask, include:
- What services and supports do you provide for students living with ADHD? Are there associated fees? Do you provide short- and long-term care for students living with ADHD?
- How many psychologists and psychiatrists are on staff? Are there limits to how many times I can see a psychiatrist and/or psychologist on campus? Are there any ADHD specialists on campus? Do I need a referral to see someone on campus? Can I make an appointment prior to arriving at school?
- Do you provide off-campus referrals? Do you fill prescriptions on campus from off-campus practices?
- What emergency procedures are in place during the normal business hours of the campus counseling center? Is there anyone on call 24 hours per day? If not, who should I call in an emergency?
- Identify hospitals and private practices in the community. Most campuses only offer short-term care to students and often do not have services geared specifically toward students living with ADHD. Thus, it is important to locate and research services and supports off campus, too. You will want to locate private practices that are accessible, affordable and student friendly. You will also want the number of the local hospital in case you experience an emergency when campus-based services are unavailable.
- Connect with the disability resource center. Services and supports are typically provided through a colleges disability resource center, but only if you disclose that you have a disability and request accommodations. The disability resource center can help you coordinate these accommodations and work through the challenges you may be facing with specific courses. Getting to know the staff there early on will help you access support when it is most needed. Here are some questions you may want to ask your colleges disability resource center:
- What are specific services and accommodations you typically provide to students living with ADHD? What other supports are available through your office?
- What is the process for requesting accommodations? What documentation do you require? How long does the process take?
- Is there a study skills program specifically available for students living with ADHD? What other academic support services are available? What kinds of educational and wellness programs are provided on campus?
- Do you have an ADHD specialist on staff?
- Does your office provide specialized registration assistance to students living with ADHD?
- Should I tell my professors about my ADHD and any accommodations I need?
- Can I get in touch with students who are receiving services from you to learn about their experiences at the school?
- Understand policies.
It is critical that you know your rights in college to ensure that you are receiving the accommodations you are entitled to, that your colleges procedures and policies are legal and that you are not discriminated against because you live with ADHD. Here is a sample of questions you will want to ask your school:
- What health and academic information do you share, if any, with families, staff, campus security, residential advisors, law enforcement and hospitals?
- What policies exist for students taking a leave of absence as a result of ADHD, students experiencing a psychiatric crisis on campus and students whose health or welfare is in jeopardy?
- Develop a transition plan. Since transitions can be very difficult for people living with ADHD, you may want to gradually expose yourself to the transition to campus life. This may mean starting off at a local community college or if you are going out of state, living with a nearby, supportive family member or family friend first. It is up to you to determine what supports will be helpful to make the transition as smooth as possible and to develop a plan that takes those supports into account.
Psychiatric Advance Directives (PADs)
You may want to sign a HIPAA Release before going to college to let your parents remain involved with your medical care. If you have co-occurring mental health or substance use disorders that can impact your ability to make decisions about your health, financial or other personal matters, you may also want to consider assigning a Power of Attorney over some of your affairs and developing a Psychiatric Advance Directive (PAD) to share with others.
PAD is a legal document that allows you to give instructions for future mental health treatment or appoint someone you trust to make future decisions about your treatment. The document is used if you become unable to make or communicate decisions about your treatment. For more information, visit the National Resource Center on Psychiatric Advanced Directives.
If you are receiving special education services under IDEA, then you are entitled to transition planning from your high school. Transition planning includes identifying post-secondary education goals, such as collecting information on your colleges requirements and services, developing the ability to describe ADHD and its impact on your learning, anticipating accommodations and organizing documentation. All of these types of activities can be included in your IEP plan. Additionally, your high school is required to provide a Summary of Performance to you, which includes your academic achievement and functional performance to date. It should also include a description of current and past services and supports and recommendations for future accommodations.
Disclosing Your Disorder
It is your choice whether you want to disclose that you are living with ADHD to your college. Reasons you may want to disclose include:
- to request reasonable accommodations from the college;
- to discuss academic requirements and practical components of your course of study; and
- to ensure faculty members implement the reasonable accommodations you need to be successful in the class.
The timing of your disclosure depends on when you need accommodations. But remember, you want to disclose before you have trouble in a class due to a lack of support. Here are five instances when it may be important to consider disclosure:
- prior to enrollment if you need accommodations during the application process;
- at the time of enrollment if you anticipate you will need accommodations to complete your classes;
- during your course of study if you discover you need accommodations to successfully complete the program;
- if you are diagnosed with ADHD during your course of study and need accommodations to successfully complete the program; or
- never. You may choose to not disclose that you live with ADHD if no accommodations are needed or if you have decided to accommodate your needs personally.
Generally, you should only disclose that you live with ADHD to those individuals who need to know because of the accommodation process. This usually includes disability resource center staff, your academic advisor or an admissions officer. You may be discouraged to disclose to faculty because of student confidentiality issues.
In terms of disclosing to others you will encounter in the college setting, including your peers, it is up to you and your own personal privacy boundaries about whether to disclose. You will want to determine for yourself the amount and type of information you want to share with others and you may wish to only share personal information with those you trust. Regardless of how, when or why you disclose that you are living with ADHD, always keep the conversation focused on your abilities, strengths and self-determination.Learn about obtaining accommodations in college.

Over the course of the next 7 weeks, we will begin a journey of prayer. We will look at various types of petitionary and intercessory prayer…prayers for oneself and prayers of behalf of other people. The various themes show us ways in which we can enrich our prayer life and help us to pray more effectively through examining scripture and then looking to God to change our hearts.
Praying For the Forgiveness of Sin
In the Lord's Prayer we ask, "Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us." (Matt 6:12) This petition has a qualification attached to it. We can only ask God to forgive us to the extent that we forgive others.
We forgive because we have been forgiven and because we want to follow the example of Jesus. Paul writes "Be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you." (Ephesians 4:32)
Without forgiveness there are barriers that exist and this leads to bitterness, pain and resentment toward one another.
1) Read Psalm 19:7-18
2) Take some time to think about your relationships. Are you aware of any conflict you have with another? Are there people you hold a grudge against? Describe these issues and offer them to God. Make a decision to forgive those who have hurt you and be released from any bitterness within you.
3) As you are able, seek to express this forgiveness, and, where possible, be reconciled.
"God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting our sins against us. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation…God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." (2 Cor. 5:19, 21)
