07 May 2012 - 21 May 2012 \ This tour was fantastic and our tour manager Laura was great!! The hotels were decent, basically you can't expect much in Europe (twin beds pushed together, tiny rooms sometimes you have air and sometimes you don't lol) but they were all clean and in great locations close to transit or city centers. On our free day we spent a day on a wine tour in Tuscany with darkrome tours it was fantastic and I recommended Contiki add it as an optional because it was one of our best days, as for the guided tours we had a really good guide Peitro in Rome but to be honest you may want to do what another couple did and download an app with all the history on an ipod or tablet or walk around with a guide book (Rick steves Europe is great) only because when you are on the tour you can feel as though your pushed through I felt this way in Pompeii and at the Akropolis and if your like me you may want to explore it on your own time spending longer in some areas, the great thing about Contiki is you can do as little or as much with the tour as you want so if you go on your own its no big deal other then you have to get back to the hotel on your own just let your tour guide know if you do leave so she/he isn't looking for you. I do suggest to buy a 3 day metro pass in Rome that way you can get lost and just hop on the subway to get back to the main areas. When you arrive from the airport there is a taxi tariff of $40 euro flat rate (no matter how many people are in the cab) its a good 45min drive into town and if you want a stress free arrival into your hotel I recommend this!! The dinners are great and a fun way to socialize with your group but if your a couple sometimes we found it cheaper and more intimate to just go on our own to a little bistro (it was our honeymoon) but as a single traveller I highly recommend the contiki dinners but one optional dinner that was by far the best is the traditional greek meal in the taverna in Corfu everyone should go to that one and the optional in Rome was fun too!! The food is good not amazing as with any place that feeds lots of people at once plenty of pasta. In Athens if your staying at the Arion hotel get some people together and all get takeaway food and have a buffett meal its cheaper and you can just buy wine/beer super cheap at a store theres a beautiful rooftop with the Acropolis lit up behind you overlooking Athens the hotel was very good at providing everything you needed as long as you cleaned up and you can even have music via an Ipad. Try the Calimari if you don't get grossed out by visuals (its an entire grilled squid lol) it was amazing get the cheese sauce in the middle yum!! As for other optionals that you must do, the boat around Capri was amazing but I wouldn't bother paying to see the blue grotto theres plenty of nice grottos to see for free and I found this to be a tourist trap ripoff but some people loved it so you decide. Georges Boat is a blast and a contiki staple, Ephesus and village Akritini if you love history. For anyone worried that Contiki is the equivalent of Jersey Shore you have no worries, yes there is a party atmosphere but I have been on 4 tours now and theres someone for everyone (just like camp lol) I have travelled as a couple and as a single traveller and have always met the most amazing people that I have staying in touch with for years and feel blessed to have met. Every night theres the option to head out to a local bar courtesy of your tour manager but nobody has to go and you can drink as much or as little as you feel comfortable the best part about being on vacation is nobody judges anyone and everyone just wants the best experience, for myself I always went out but usually was in bed by midnight so my day was never ruined with too much of a hangover lol. All in All everyone should go on a Contiki tour its an experience of a lifetime!!

The Supremacy of God in Preaching
Christian & Missionary Alliance General Council
Charlotte, NC
The following is an unedited transcription of the audio.
Thank you so much for helping me engage with God already tonight. I love to speak into a worship context. I love to speak to a worshiping people and so thank you so much for engaging with God and your time of worship so energetically and what appeared to me authentically.
I value very much walking into a context like this, I feel drawn up into the presence of the Lord. Another high point tonight was and I don't think though believe me when I go home when I say that I actually spoke at the same meeting with A.W. Tozer. I mean they would want to just fall down and touch me.
So how do you arrange such a thing? This is just, I could just go home now and be so happy.
One of the great advantages of being at the same church for 17 years is that your personal life mission statement and the church's mission statement become one. Let me give you our church's mission statement and it is my life mission statement and you'll see why the request from Paul [Boument] to address these particular topics that he gave me was a request I couldn't resist.
Our mission statement says, "We exist to spread a passion for the supremacy of God and all things for the joy of all peoples." I'll say it again. We exist to spread a passion for the supremacy of God and all things for the joy of all peoples.
So when he said how about tackling the supremacy of God in preaching tonight and the supremacy of God in prayer tomorrow morning and the supremacy of God in missions tomorrow night? It didn't take me very long to say I would love to do that with your people and so I do love to do it tonight.
And I would like to pray once more just briefly and ask God to help in this incredibly important task. So let's bow and ask his help. Oh father in heaven I thank you so much for these brothers and sisters who have engaged with you tonight to glorify your name in corporate worship have extolled you by drawing attention to the value of your name in missions and are now ready to hear a word that I believe you've given me and I pray for your help to deliver it.
Protect us father from error, imbalance, pride, fear and grant that there will come the Holy Spirit upon this place with great power and that any without Christ here would be drawn into the life and that every saint with the strength and that every pastor, preacher would be made bold to make you supreme in his work. Come and help I pray in Jesus name, Amen.
My passion to make God supreme in preaching both in my own and in everybody I can influence took a tremendous leap forward several years ago when I read in a journal that you may have heard of called "First Things," a journal of political and religious comments. This quotation from a scientist, a specialist in general relativity theory named Charles Meisner about the attitude of Albert Einstein toward organized religion and preaching 50 years ago.
Albert's Einstein died in 1955, here's the quote. "I do see the design of the universe has essentially a religious question that is one should have some kind of respect and awe for the whole business. It's very magnificent and shouldn't be taken for granted. In fact, I believe that is why Einstein had so little use for organized religion although he strikes me as a basically very religious man. He must have looked at what their preachers said about God and felt that they were blaspheming. He had seen much more Majesty than they had ever imagined and they were just not talking about the real thing. My guess is that he simply felt that religions he had run across did not have a proper respect for the author of the universe..."
I was so cut and reading that, that I pledge to God to redouble my efforts not ever to have anybody be able to say that about me. And I want to so speak tonight as to the cut preachers and inspiring preachers and those who form search committees in call of preachers so as to want never to have that said of us.
And yet I believe it is a fair statement about much preaching in the American pulpit. Now I admit that my sampling is very limited, preachers have this one great advantage. They don't get to hear each other. They're depended on tapes and CDs and conferences and a few other things and so I confess that my judgment are fallible and limited and yet on my limited exposure I would say that Einstein's concern is valid.
He said four things. Preachers don't seem to have seen as much of the Majesty of God as he had staring through a telescope or studying his physics. That could mean he said preachers just don't seem to be talking about the real thing. Thirdly, there doesn't seem to be a proper respect for the author of the universe. And forth, preachers seem to be blaspheming.
Now that charge of blasphemy of courses loaded, it's meant to carry a wallop to say that the real thing just doesn't seem to be coming through. They claim to be talking about the absolutely eternal, it infinite, unchanging creator of the universe, but it doesn't feel like it. It doesn't look like it, doesn't sound like it.
For those who are stunned by the indescribable magnitude of the universe, not to mention the infinitely greater author of the universe. A steady diet of psychological soothing and practical how-to's and relational therapy gets very thin and somehow seemed very inauthentic and gives the impression are we talking about the real thing.
Well everybody here remembers perhaps from high school physics that light travels at about 5.87 trillion miles a year. We all know that right? And you may also remember that the galaxy of which our planet, solar system is apart, Milky Way, is about 100,000 light-years across, that's about 587,000 trillion miles.
It is one of 1 million such galaxies within the optical range of our strong telescopes and in our galaxy there are about 100 billion stars. The sun is one of those modest size ones with a temperature around the edges of about 6,000 degrees Celsius, it travels at about 155 miles per second and therefore will make it first orbit around the galaxy in about 200,000 years.
Now scientist know these things and they are awed by them and they conclude if there is as the Christians say a personal God, a personal God who spoke that into being and as Hebrews 1-3 says upholds it by the word of his power, then there ought to be a certain respect for him. An awe and dread and fear at not knowing, loving, trusting or obeying such a God.
And certainly there would be a constant talking about this God and certainly the manifold greatness and glory of such a God would be ever present in the life of his people and they would be stunned by the limitless things they could say about his magnificence.
You've to feel for this when you read Isaiah 40. These words from verses 25 and 26, to whom then will you compare me says the Lord. That I should be like him says the Holy one. Lift up your eyes on high and see who created these stars? He who brings out their host by number calling them all by name. By the greatness by his might, because he is strong in power not one of them is missing.
Now ponder that for a moment. Not only did he create them, but he knows their number and he knows their name. Every star in the universe has a name. Do you ever ask why that is? 005986738 or maybe Jim or John or Sally. I think the reason they have names is so that he can call them and tell them what to do. That's why their names. They obey him, the whims and the ways and the star obey him. The stars in their courses obediently, obediently shine.
Einstein felt some of this and his response was the preachers I just not talking about the real thing. If God exists, the God of the Bible, then what's wrong with our preaching? Let's put it positively, surely then the theme, the spirit, the atmosphere of our preaching should be the majesty and the glory and the supremacy of God and everything else that we talk about should be brought into relationship to this and it should be the passion of our preaching and our lives.
Now what I want to do tonight is to pose two questions about this. One is to ask why this is so. Why should the supremacy of God be the passion of our preaching? And secondly, how shall we then preach? Question number one then, why should be supremacy of God be the passion and the theme of our preaching?
A couple of years ago, I'm not sure how long it's been, it's maybe more than a couple. I was doing this interview with Preaching Today and they asked me that question on the telephone. Why do you make so much of the supremacy of God being the theme of preaching? And the answer I gave was what came to my mind as they were teaching or asking me this. I said well, it's because the supremacy of God is the theme of redemptive history. In fact if you push it all the way back the supremacy of God is the theme of God.
What is supreme to God ultimately is God? And if God is supreme in his own affections and in his own planning and in his own world and in his own word, then surely God should be supreme in our sermon planning and in our annunciation of his word.
I remember just a few years ago that was my alma mater preaching. First chance I ever had to stand in the puppet of chapel of Wheaton College. This is going to be exciting and I stood up there and the first words out of my mouth were... I got up in front of these 2000 students and said the chief end of God is to glorify God and enjoy him forever and I had friends up in the balcony and they went... Like that. And said afterwards we thought you just blew your one chance to get it right at Wheaton and you quoted the Westminster catechism wrong.
It's the chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy him forever, but having listen to the whole 25 minutes they knew it was no mistake because I meant it with all of my heart. I believe is the main point of the Bible that the chief and of God is to glorify God. I think that's what Tozer said with every book that he ever wrote. The chief end of God is to glorify God and enjoy himself forever.
Jonathan Edwards along with A.W. Tozer and a few others is a hero of mine and the book that made this point in my life and a life changing way about 25 years ago now is called "The Dissertation Concerning the End for Which God Created the World." That's the short title.
"The Dissertation Concerning the End for Which God Created the World" and in it he makes this point, I'll read you the thesis. "The great end of God's works which is so very easily expressed in scripture is indeed but one, and this one end is most properly and comprehensively called the glory of God."
Now let me read you one passage of scripture's so that you get the flavor of why I say God's supremacy is the main heartbeat of God and therefore it must be the main heartbeat of preaching about God. Isaiah 48 9-11, "God says for my name's sake I did for my anger for the sake of my praise I restrain it for you that a may not cut you off. Behold I have find you but not like silver I have tried you in the furnace of affliction for my own sake, or my own sake I do it for how should my name be profaned, my glory I will not give to another."
I think those three verses are probably the most dense, concentrated, God centered versus in the Bible. Six times for my name's sake, for my name's sake, for my glory I will not give my glory to another. Why? It's because it's his passion. God's glory is his passion. He created the world to go public with his glory. He created human minds to understand his glory, he created human hearts to delight in his glory and he gets more glory when mind and heart are engaged with thoughts and feelings that if only mind or only feeling are engaged.
Which is why we have at the bottom of our stationery that word that sums up all of my theology, God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him. This is the good news. By God's quest be glorified and your quest be satisfied are not at odds, they are one in worship.
Therefore my answer to my first question is why do we make God supreme in preaching? We do so because God is supreme in the heart of God and in redemptive history and in salvation and in the Bible and in missions and in prayer. Which we'll get to later.
Last question, how should we do this? How then shall we preach? Now pay attention to that question. What I would like to do is take you to a sermon that I think is probably the most God centered sermon in the Bible and if you have a viable and you can read it in the light that's out there for you, you can turn with me to Acts chapter 13.
It would be helpful if you look at it because instead of reading the sermon I'm going to jump from verse to verse and diverse portion to first portion and make points that draw out what you might have missed. Sometimes we read the scripture so often we fail to be stunned by the way it is written and the way the apostles preached.
So here's Paul arriving at Antioch of Pisidia. He goes into the synagogue, he's invited to address the people and he preaches a survey of redemptive history and he does it in a way that I wonder if any of us speaks. Let's start at verse 17 and I'll simply show you why I call this the most God centered, God exalting, God saturated sermon in the Bible.
Verse 17 A, it was God who chose Israel from all of the people in the earth for his purposes. Middle of verse 17, it was God who made the people great during their stay in Egypt, it wasn't natural fertility of Jews. God made them grow. The last part of verse 17, it was God who led them out of Egypt with an uplifted arm. In other words God flexed his muscles in Egypt so that people would see his strength, God meant to be seen in the Exodus.
Verse 18, it was God who bore with Israel in the wilderness for another old reading with just one letter difference and the Greek. God carried Israel like a father so he was guider and sustainer and father throughout the wilderness in his wanderings.
Verse 19, it was God who destroyed the seven nations that they encountered as they entered Canaan. Yes humans swung the sword, yes they through this spear, yes they swirled their slingshots, but as we all know from Proverbs 21. The horses made ready for the day of battle, but victory belongs to the Lord.
Second part of first 19, it was God who gave Israel the land of Canaan as an inheritance. If you give something to somebody as an inheritance, you own it. It wasn't the nations who owned the land of Canaan, Got owned the land of Canaan and he gives it to whomever he pleases Paul says. The Earth is the Lord's for you made it some [955].
Verse 20 in Acts 13, it was God who gave Israel judges. These rulers didn't rise up on their own Samson, Deborah, Gideon. God raise them up says.
Verse 21. It was God who gave to Israel her first King Saul. Verse 22, it was God who removed Saul just like Daniel says remember? God changes times and seasons, he removes kings and sets up kings or as Daniel 4:32 says the most high rules over the kingdom of man he gives it to whomever he will.
That's what's in Paul's mind here as he enunciates the removal of Saul and now verse 22, second half. He raises up David, the son of Jesse, a shepherd boy, a harp plucker, a slaying shooter and God against all human expectations says that's my man. He will be king.
Verse 23, it was God who brought to Israel a savior, Jesus. God brought Jesus to the earth, God brought Jesus to Israel and not by any mere, immediate, impersonal force, but you can see it at the end of the first the phrase as he promised. Which means this thing had been planned. This thing had been thought through centuries before God looked to see what he would do at the fullness of time and he's spoke it through promises and profits that he would do it this way.
Versus 24 and 25, we meet of all people to choose to speak about in Antioch of Pisidia, John the Baptist. And what does he choose out of all of the things he could say about John the Baptist and of all the quotations he could quote of John the Baptist in the sermon he chooses to quote these words. I am not he, no. But after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.
Now Jesus said nobody is greater, born a woman than John the Baptist. Remember that? And John the Baptist says I'm not worthy to untie the shoes of Jesus Christ. In other words Paul selects a word from John the Baptist that controls all relief or all attention to Jesus, the son of the living God. The whole story is about Jesus.
Verse 26, Paul says to us now he's drawing the people of Pisidia, Antioch to us has been sent the message of salvation. Why this passive verb? Who is this sender? And the answer is God. So God planned it long ago, God promised it through the prophet, God sent and brought his son Jesus and now God is sending to the nations.
Verse 27, those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers because they did not recognize him, nor understand the utterance of the profits which are read every Sabbath fulfilled these by condemning him.
Now that's an incredible sentence. If you said to me or to the people in Pisidia, Antioch God promised these things, people read them and the word and therefore and harmony with God did them. It wouldn't be as incredible. That's not what is said.
Let me read it very carefully for you. It says those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers because they did not recognize Jesus, nor understand the utterance of the profits fulfilled them. What in the world does that mean? That means God did it, they didn't do it.
Every hammer blow on the nails through his wrists was the work of his father in fulfillment of his promises to vindicate his glory and save the nations. In other words Paul chose words here, Paul chose words in the sermon that would get all attention and all authority and also premises and all centrality for the one main actor in the universe, God.
This is an amazing sermon. Paul's on a mission for the sake of the supremacy of his God.
Verse 29, and when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb. So right to the end it's all fulfilling of God's word and God's plan.
Finally verse 30, it was God who raised Jesus from the dead. God raised him from the dead. Now it is true that Jesus said nobody takes my life from me, I lay it down on my own accord and if I laid it down I will take it again. Jesus raised Jesus from the dead.
But the point of Paul's sermon is to get all attention for the father through the son. If it ever came to the end of Philippians 2 and every tongue will confess, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the father. It's all going to terminate on God the father, Jesus is God and he will reflect all glory to his father.
Well I ask you preachers do you preach like that? I ask you lay people do you talk like that? When you talk about the world do you say God did this and God did that and God did this and God did this and God did that and God raised up this president and got but this president down and God raised up the senator and output that senator down and got put this man in placing God put that down and God ordained this simple strategy and God...Cut that thing. When its purpose was done and God did this and God did that and God reigns over the nations.
Do you talk like that? Do you make Him supreme? Paul's was there was a great, there is a great, glorious, supreme God. Now what are we going to do with this? We'll close with just a practical illustration of how we will weave such a thing into all of our preaching.
Here are the thoughts that come to my mind as I apply this to my life as a preacher and into yours. We live in an unbelievably, naive and superficial age and it's the last thing most people will think to say about it. But it's not the last thing A.W. Tozer thought to say about it.
What I mean by superficial is something you superficial when the treatment of it involves everything you can say about it except the main things? Now as a scholar you can say many things intelligently about many things and if you leave out the main connections in reality, you're treating it superficially.
Therefore I conclude that the communication media in America are all superficial. I conclude that the educational enterprises in our universities are all superficial. I conclude that virtually all news reports are superficial, virtually all history books are superficial, virtually all public education is superficial, virtually all editorial and news, commentary is superficial for one very simple reason that a child can understand. It's because of the incredible, unspeakable, unimaginable disregard for God in it all.
God is the main reality in the universe and is the main connection, purpose, ground and sustaining power of everything that is and therefore anytime you treat anything without relation to God you are superficial. And the fact that that sounds odd to us shows how infected the CMA, the Baptist General Conference and all American evangelicals are with our God neglecting, God belittling and increasingly God despising age.
If you watch enough TV you cannot help but forget God. He isn't there and the sheer absence of God is blasphemy. Therefore I plead with few pastors to make him supreme in your preaching.
I pray for my sons and my daughter, I have five kids and two of my boys are out of school now. One is in college and one is in high school and my little girl hasn't started school yet and I pray oh God. And all of their learning grant that they would seek God, that they would seek you. Maybe see you in geometry, that they see you in history, may they see you in philosophy, maybe see you in English, made a see you in physical education, maybe see you in spelling.
Spelling, and I can hear the cynics right a Christian spelling. There are Christian ways to spell words. Give me a break Pastor John. Now that's the way a cynic, a superficial, 20th century saturated God neglecting cynic response to talking about God centered spelling.
I've had two kinds of sons. Academic and nonacademic and they fit the pattern perfectly, son number one the scholar, son number two the athlete, the jock. As soon as he can get out of high school he was done, he was gone. And he's red hot for Jesus by the way.
Well I remember the day when this dyslexic, non-speller said to me why should I care about spelling the way everybody's spells? And he meant it because it hurts so bad. And I said well, you won't be able to communicate as well if you don't learn how to spell the way everybody else spells. I don't care about communicating well, why should I care about communicating well?
Now here we are, public school teachers. You've got this kid in your class and he raises his hand after flunking his second spelling test. Why should I care about communicating? Not right here we're about a millimeter beneath superficiality, not pretty far and the ways are going to divide right here teacher. What are you going to tell him?
Here's one answer. This is the blasphemous answer, the standard answer, the 20th century answer, the public school answer. Well if you don't learn how to spell or you don't learn how to communicate well, you won't succeed in business and you won't make as much money and you won't advance in the community. And here's the real clincher, it's the bottom-line gospel. You won't have as high self-esteem. So get to work and we'll help you. Godless, Godless answers all.
And here's another answer, my answer to my son and to anybody who'll listen. Ben, you should care about communicating and learning how to spell because they were created in the image of God and God's a great communicator. You're in his image son, you're in his image and to be a human being is no small thing. And he's a great communicator, you should want to communicate and not be indifferent to putting obstacles in the way.
Number two, you've got something infinitely important to communicate Ben. You've got God to communicate, you've got love to communicate, you got salvation to communicate, you've got Jesus to communicate, you've got the gospel to communicate, you've got eternal life to communicate, you've got purpose to communicate, you can't be indifferent son to whether you communicate and put obstacles in the way of your communication.
Third, Ben, God is love and his love is scorned when we treat as a matter of indifference whether or not we communicate good things for other people that they desperately need to hear from us.
And finally they need to communicate and care about communicating and not putting spelling stumbling blocks in the way of your communication because language is God's idea from the beginning. In the beginning it was the word, that word was with God. It's God's idea, he is not a God of Chaos and confusion. He's a kind of beauty and a God of order, he's not a God of anarchy even spelling anarchy.
Not a God of spelling anarchy and you know if you're sitting out there now and you don't care about supremacy of God in spelling, thing you won't get my plea tonight. You just won't get it.
As my closing plea is this, preachers especially and all of us if we preachers don't lift up the supremacy of God week in week out and show a passion for the supremacy of God in all things including spelling, boating, sex, eating, leisure, stock market. If we don't show the supremacy of God and how the glory of God has a bearing on everything who's going to do it?
There are no influences regularly and the lives of my people calling them away from the God belittling, God neglecting, God despising, television and culture that they are immersed in besides me because most of them don't tune in to regular radio and most radio don't get it anyway. Most of them are reading books and most of your people aren't either but one hour a week, maybe two, maybe three, they'll listen to you and if you don't lift up the glory of God and try to wean them off their breast of God neglecting America, who's going to do it?
Let's pray. Oh mighty God our hearts desire in this room right now I believe is that you would be magnified in our pulpits and in our Sunday school classes and in our personal witnessing and in our living in such a way that America would awaken to the glory and the majesty and the supremacy of the God who made the world and is redeeming the world through Jesus Christ. Oh father drawn here by your spirit here and feel these things to our hearts and apply them in our churches and in our world and in the mission of the Christian missionary alliance movement I pray in Jesus name.

Soaps scuds are spewing from the dishwasher. Either North Korea is inside it conducting tests or I used dish liquid instead of dishwasher detergent. I cant be 100 per cent certain, but I suspect its the lather...I mean, latter. This is the kind of careless mistake thats made me famous with family, friends, in-laws and George Street hot dog venders, who refuse to let me near the condiments. My wife is in another room, oblivious to the foaming chaos in the kitchen. The froth covers the floor, rising like a quickly poured beer. So I take a swig. It doesnt taste like a Stella or even Jockey. The lather nears knee level, growing like The Blob (http://tinyurl.com/6z8d86). Ahhhh! Nothing is safe. I frantically leap into the lather and begin beating the bubbles back with beach towels. That, combined with rinse cycle, averts the dish soap disaster. I pat myself on the back. My wife doesnt suspect a thing. But then.. the dishwasher gargles, switches to a second wash cycle and launches more soap scuds. @#$$%%^! Frothing at the mouth, I dive back into the fizzing fray. My wife walks in and rolls her eyes. Im lying on the floor, spinning around in suds and large towels. I stop short of blaming North Korea, bragging about running a bubble bath for her, or pointing out the danger I've enountered. Instead, I come clean and tell her what happened. I also stress how spotless the floor is.

Recently, the FI team, along with a handful of currently enrolled founders, directors, and mentors, made their way down to Los Angeles to tour SpaceX (Space Exploration Technologies Corporation) - a privately owned space launch company led by Elon Musk (CEO, Tesla).
On the tour we learned not only a ton about space travel and exploration, but got to see rockets and spacecrafts being built right before our eyes - a fascinating experience to say the least! But that's not all - the real icing on the cake came when Elon Musk addressed our group, enlightening us on SpaceX's plans for the future, what it's like to run two companies, and a few valuable tidbits on taking risks and entrepreneurship.
When asked about his stance on failure, this is what Elon had to say:
Failure sucks. If anyone tells you they learn more from failure than success, then they're wrong. You learn more from success. There are many more ways to fail than there are to succeed. If you've found the one thing that succeeds, that's great."
Brilliant? We certainly think so.
Check out a highlight from our tour below, and stay tuned for more on Elon's experience as an entrepreneur, future FI excursions, and more.

The Constitutional Review Commission chairman, Joseph Warioba, has pleaded with President Jakaya Kikwete and the groups that proposed his name to give him and his team total independence as they execute their duties.
The former Prime Minister and Attorney General, said they don't want any pressure to be heaped on the Commission since they will be committed to integrity and competence.
The commission chairman, who started his work on Monday, was speaking in Dar es Salaam yesterday at a ceremony to receive the office to accomodate the team.
Chief Secretary Ambassador Ombeni Sefue handed the office over to the Commission on behalf of President Jakaya Kikwete and Zanzibar President Dr Ali Mohamed Shein.
Warioba assured the public that the Commission's responsibility to collect views from wananchi will hinge on strengthening national unity.
"On behalf of the Commission I want to assure that we will use all our integrity and capability to implement the intended goals …we will make sure that we have good strategies which will enable us to reach as many people as possible," Warioba said. He further called upon wananchi to turn up in big numbers to air their views to enable the Commission to know what they want. Besides he pleaded with them to collaborate with the Commission at all levels in giving out their opinions which will contribute positively to the writing of the country's new fundamental law.
Moreover, he urged the media to assist by educating the public on the entire process of collecting public views saying once the constitution is ready the Commission will distribute it to the people to enable them to know it.
Warioba stressed: "Knowing the Constitution and educating other people is the responsibility of all Tanzanians and not the Commission alone." For her part, Justice and Constitutional Affairs minister Cellina Kombani said that the process of collecting public views is not meant to distort basics of national unity, but to improve the country's sovereignty, adding that people's views will be highly respected.
She also noted that the process is not meant to disrupt the prevailing peace, stability and harmony, but is for strengthening all the good things for the future of the country.
Kombani added that this opportunity of involving the two parties in the Union in the entire processing of writing the new constitution will be fully utilised to build good relations between them in the process of implementing democracy. She further noted that in the past Constitution commissions were formed by the President but currently the system has changed as the people are more involved in their formations.
He called upon the public to build the culture of reading the Constitution and assured that the government through her ministry would continue to educate the public on this important document.
Zanzibar's Minister for Constitutional and Legal Affairs, Abdulkarim Bakari, however, insisted that the Commission should assume the responsibility of informing the people on the new constitution and the weakness of the present one.
"For us we are going to cooperate in the opinion giving exercise so as to get what we want, but we insist that time limitations must be taken into account since the number of the people who may wish to give out their views is likely to be very big," he said.
The Commission is expected to complete its work by October next year and prepare the draft document for tabling in the Constitutional Assembly.

The Fab 5 is a smart and nuanced documentary that will appeal to University of Michigan basketball fans that followed the meteoric rise of these five young men from highly touted high school blue chippers to college basketball icons. From the initial recruiting process of the Michigan coaching staff to the off-court legal problems faced by one of its star players, the film successfully weaves together the known and unknown while thoughtfully providing background regarding the experiences of these teenagers who were thrust under the media's microscope from the beginning. The film does a nice job of discussing the high stakes world of collegiate basketball, the pressure to succeed and the high's and low's of the Fab 5's on-court success and disappointment.

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) -- The holiday season isn't only about giving to family and friends.
It's also a time to give to others in need, and unfortunately, scammers prey on that generosity.
So, here are a few key reminders to protect you.
Map out a strategy when you give and set a budget.
It can make you less susceptible to high pressure pitches that could amount to scams.
Do research to make sure the group hits its philanthropic goals.
Check out the charity's financial health, transparency and track record.
The Better Business Bureau or Charity Navigator websites are a good place to start.
For clothing or food, make sure a charity has the resources to accept and distribute those donations.
Be wary of unsolicited phone calls and emails from unfamiliar charities.
And with more people shopping on their smartphones, smishing has become a hot new area for scammers phishing with text messages.
You wouldn't click on a link in an unsolicited email, so use that same caution with an unsolicited text.

A pickup truck crashed through the front door of
a Woodbridge family's home as they were getting
ready for work and school Tuesday morning.
Hank Silverberg, wtop.com
WOODBRIDGE, Va. — A pickup truck crashed through the front door of a Woodbridge family's home as they were getting ready for work and school Tuesday morning.
The incident happened at the intersection of Cardinal Drive and Choate Court just after 8 a.m. Faso Alomdah says his wife and daughter were on the second floor of the house when the truck plowed into the front of the home.
"I just thank God for his grace because everyone came out of the house safe and nobody was hurt and that's a miracle," Alomdah says.
Prince William County police say five teenagers — four girls and one boy, all 14 or 15 years old — stole the Chevy Silverado earlier Tuesday morning in Manassas after walking away from an emergency shelter home.
The group dropped off one of the girls, police say. Then the others went on a ride that ended in a police chase and the crash into the house.
Carolyn Sadler, who lives across the street from the home, says she heard the crash.
"I could never have imagined that it would be a truck going through somebody's house," she says.
Police say the five teenagers are from Woodbridge, Manassas, Warrenton and Dumfries. All face charges that include grand larceny. They were being held at a juvenile detention center.
No one was hurt in the incident.

An elderly Sampson County man was struck and killed by a state trooper. That trooper has now been placed on administrative leave.
The Highway Patrol says 80-year-old Ottis Parker of Clinton died after being struck by the cruiser around 7:00 p.m. The man was crossing Highway 242 in Salemburg when he was hit by the trooper.
Trooper Emory Brown has been placed on administrative leave pending completion of their investigation.
Brown is a 9-year veteran of the patrol and is currently assigned to the Motor Carrier Enforcement Section in Troop B.
This is the second pedestrian struck and killed by a state trooper in Eastern Carolina in less than a year and a half.
In July 2011, Trooper Derrick Bank's cruiser hit Bradley Carie as the man was walking down the U.S. 17 bypass outside of Elizabeth City. In that case the Highway Patrol said the trooper was not at fault in the accident.

The Reality and Legacy of the Iraq War
Recorded: Tuesday, October 17, 2006
The elections in Iraq have not resolved the main problems therea constitutional crisis, continued terrorism, a potent Sunni rebellion, and fighting between religious and ethnic groups that could result in a full-blown civil war. Is the Iraq war a hopeless quagmire that has been lost, or can the U.S. still foster a united, peaceful and prosperous Iraq? If the latter, how can this be achieved? Should the Iraqi constitution be revised and, if so, how? Should the U.S. withdraw its forces-with Iraq partitioned-or use the threat of withdrawal to pressure Iraqi groups into a negotiated settlement? Should the U.S. extract troops rapidly, pull them out gradually, stay the course with current Bush administration policy, or escalate its involvement? This very timely policy forum, featuring Mark Danner and Ivan Eland, will address these critical issues.

- "The "Dancing Feet" spell has its origins in ancient Italy, but is best remembered for its improper usage by Warlock Zaccaria Innocenti who is credited with conjuring a 'dance' within Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD."
- —Description[2]
The Dancing Feet Spell (Tarantallegra) is a jinx used to force another person's legs to begin dancing uncontrollably. The spell requires a clear, unobstructed view of the target to be successfully cast.[2]
This spell has its origins in Italy but is best remembered for its improper usage by warlock Zaccaria Innocenti who is credited with conjuring a 'dance' within Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.[2] It is mainly used to make a victim do something hilarious, but it can be also be used in duelling. Draco Malfoy cast this spell on Harry Potter in 1992 at the first meeting of the Duelling Club. Antonin Dolohov used it against Neville Longbottom during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. It is possible this is the spell used to make a pineapple dance across the classroom in the first year charms exam.
The Tarantella is a dance originating in Italy. It was believed to cure the effects of the bite of a Tarantula by causing the victim to sweat out the toxin. It wasn't until centuries later that scientists determined the Black Widow was actually the venomous spider in question; people merely blamed the Tarantula because of its size.[3] Allegra may be derived from allegro, a musical tempo meaning "quick and lively"; or simply from the word "leg" as this is the only body part affected by the jinx.
Behind the scenes
- It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
- It should be noted that although this spell requires the target to have legs (animate or inanimate) it can also provoke a reaction out of legless targets (for example, it is known to have caused Mt. Vesuvius to erupt).

Everyday Black folks missing from the eco-dialogue
By Charles Hallman
Staff Writer
Tuskegee University hosted the first-ever Black Environmental Thought (BET) conference in 2007. The University of Minnesota's Hubert H. Humphrey Center hosted last weekend the second such event on September 21-23. The U-M's African American and African Studies (AAAS) department, the Institute for Advanced Study and St. Paul-based AfroEco were key organizers of BET II, which was billed for Black scholars, activists, farmers and other environmentalists "to engage in translocal and transnational dialogues about environmental justice."
"It took us five years to do this again," proclaimed U-M Professor Rose Brewer in her welcoming remarks. AAAS Chair Keith Mayes added that too often "Black folk and people of color are left out of the [environmental] discussion."
Environmental issues are "fundamental Black issues," noted AfroEco's Sam Grant. Continue Reading →

For many people, hunting is more than a sport and much more than just a hobby. For those who have dedicated countless hours and several dollars, hunting is a way of life. Often it is a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation. It reminds us of a simpler time as it provides food for a family, décor for the walls, and a way for parents to bond with their children. Hunting creates lasting memories for the kid who will never forget the feeling of shooting that first deer. You now have a seemingly endless supply of firearm and archery accessories at your fingertips. There are targets to practice with and scent blocker when you're ready to head out. Cases and cleaning supplies will keep your weapons in tip top shape between hunts. Regardless of the critter you are hunting or what you are hunting with, everything you need is right here.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency says 11 of Lance Armstrong's former teammates testified against him in its investigation of the cyclist, revealing "the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen."
USADA will deliver its reasoned decision against Armstrong later Wednesday, a summary of the facts it used to hand him a lifetime suspension and erase his seven Tour de France titles.
In a news release previewing the decision, USADA CEO Travis Tygart listed 11 of Armstrong's former teammates, including George Hincapie, Floyd Landis and Tyler Hamilton, as among those providing evidence that led to the sanction.
In delivering the report to the International Cycling Union, Tygart called for the federation to create a program to help clean up the sport.

Last year air temperatures were in the 50's when ECU students braved the waters of the outdoor rec pool for the Polar Bear Plunge. They weren't as lucky this year as the mercury was below freezing.
The 17th annual Polar Bear Plunge Wednesday night saw plenty of students jumping in the frigid waters. Waters temperatures were in the low 40's.

David Yurman
David Yurman is born in October in Manhattan. Sybil Yurman (née Kleinrock) is born in December in the Bronx. Only two months and a few miles apart, their lives would one day become intertwined through love, art, and design.
At the age of 11, David discovers a book in the local library depicting prehistoric cave paintings. He discovers the beauty of line and his love of art is ignited.
Direct Weld
David spends the summer before 11th grade in Provincetown, Massachusetts, a destination for bohemians and artists. There, he learns sandal making from Roger Rilleau and direct welding—the process of creating 3-dimensional forms from molten metal rods—from sculptor Ernesto Gonzales.
David hitchhikes to Big Sur, California, and immerses himself in the artistic renaissance of the beatnik generation. When he returns to New York, he moves to Greenwich Village, where he becomes an apprentice to renowned sculptor Jacques Lipchitz and eventually establishes his own sculpture studio on Sullivan Street.
David meets Sybil while working for sculptor Hans Van de Bovenkamp in New York City. She would become his co-creator, his partner in business and life.
David apprentices with Theodore Roszak, a leading figure of the Post-World War II New York school of modern sculpture.
In September, David and Sybil Yurman get married at Temple Emanu-El in New York. Afterward, they meet some friends for lunch, then head straight to a business meeting, planning to sell their company. Sybil still has bridal flowers in her hair when they arrive. The sale is supposed to be Sybil's wedding present, but the offer is too low; the prospective buyer says he doesn't believe the business is going to be very successful. The Yurmans walk away from the deal.
David Yurman, the brand and company, is created, and later that year receives the Jury Award from the World Gold Council for the Starlight necklace, a precursor to the iconic Cable design.
David is awarded Designer of the Year by the Cultured Pearl Associations of America and Japan.
Evan Yurman is born in January. From a very young age, he shows an aptitude and love for design.
David Yurman introduces the first Cable bracelet. The Cable motif soon becomes the connecting element in every DY collection.
After just seven years in existence, David Yurman debuts in Basel, Switzerland at the World Watch and Jewelry Show—the world's largest event of its kind.
With the introduction of Silver Ice®, David Yurman is the first major designer to set diamonds in sterling silver, revolutionizing the world of fine jewelry.
The first major ad campaign is released, featuring model Amber Valetta shot by celebrated fashion photographer Peter Lindbergh. His black and white images will become legendary, embodying effortless American luxury and the joy of wearing beautiful jewelry.
The first David Yurman flagship store opens on Madison Avenue.
Inspired by a sculpture he created more than 20 years prior, David Yurman designs the Angel pin to benefit Project ALS, which generates over $250,000 for Lou Gehrig's disease.
The David and Sybil Yurman Humanitarian and Arts Foundation is established. David Yurman Angel Awards are presented to individuals who give the gift of time and funding to charity and the arts. Recipients include Steven Spielberg, Elton John, and Leonard Slatkin.
David Yurman SA, a watch company based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, is established to develop and build all David Yurman timepieces.
The David Yurman headquarters moves to New York's Tribeca neighborhood. An article from Time Magazine's Style & Design supplement lauds the new space.
The Yurman's son, Evan Yurman, joins the company, and soon becomes the head of men's jewelry design.
Kate Moss brings her inimitable charisma to David Yurman's campaigns.
The company celebrates its milestone anniversary with an event, 25 Years of Classic American Design, at the Frick Collection in New York City.
David Yurman opens a flagship boutique on North Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.
At the World Watch and Jewelry Show in Basel, Switzerland, the David Yurman booth sets a new standard, winning an award for its design.
David Yurman introduces the Wedding Collection: unique engagement rings created with the eye and heart of a sculptor.
David Yurman's first international boutique opens in Hong Kong.
The Classic™ timepiece for men is introduced. The watch features a round case—a first for the designer—in three hand, moon phase, and chronograph movements. The collection will go on to encompass sleek, beautiful designs for women, as well.
Evan Yurman debuts the High Jewelry Collection, one-of-a-kind designs that feature exceptionally rare and exquisite gemstones.
Evan Yurman, David and Sybil's son, celebrates a decade as a key creative leader in the design of the Men's, Wedding, Timepiece, and High Jewelry collections.

Recently I was interviewed by Haydn Shaughnessy for his Forbes blog. We discussed the debt-driven plight of the US and UK economies, whether innovation and leadership can help get us all out of the mess we are in and the one thing that would make the difference to our economies which I firmly believe is facing up to reality and telling people the truth. You can read the full interview below or on the Forbes website (click here).
Forbes Blog by Haydn Shaughnessy
Can America Innovate Its Way Out Of Debt?
When companies like Google and Apple turn to their ecosystem to build apps, they are turning to a new organizational form. A decade ago we had very few, if any, ecosystems like this, loose associations of companies and individuals that would pitch their ideas and development time into a Darwinian soup.
In the days before the app developer community, ecosystems were disciplined, educated and controlled by companies like Microsoft that took a hierarchical view of their network.
The ecosystem has quickly become established as a new wealth creating mechanism. Now look around at companies like Ubiquity Networks, with $300 million in revenue and about a hundred employees.
American companies remain the most innovative in the world, with an ability to devise or adapt to new corporate forms and new technologies at frightening speed. But that gift is not translated into a better economy. Can it be?
I talked with Terry Smith about that problem. Smith is a London-based fund manager and many years ago co-author of Accounting for Growth. As an analyst earlier in his career he called companies out for accounting practices that exaggerated growth, and was fired for doing so.
He also writes the Straight Talking blog. I talked to him about the US economy and that of the UK. Can they innovate their way out of trouble ad as pertinently will the US ever lead the world economy again?
Terry let's start with the US economy. How significant is its loss of leadership, if at all. Will it ever lead the world out of recession again?
America's loss of economic leadership takes three forms:
1. A much-reduced share of the global economy, down from 50% in the immediate post-war years to about 19% today.
2. The US, once the world¹s largest creditor nation, is now its biggest debtor.
3. The US economic model, previously the world default position (and known as the Washington consensus), has suffered significant reputational loss through the credit super-cycle.
There is no likelihood of the US share of the global economy returning to 50%, or anywhere near that level. There is no likelihood, either, of the US reverting from leading debtor nation to leading creditor.
The US is most unlikely to lead the world out of recession again, because America has ceased to be the dominant economy.
Rather, we have a global economy in which no single country is dominant.
Many western economies assume they can maintain their debt burdens and meet their social welfare obligations. Could you comment on that from US and UK perspective?
The debt burdens of the US and the UK (and of other Western economies) are sustainable only if strong real growth (of at least 3% compound) can be assumed. Even growth at that rate might not be anywhere near enough.
In both the US and the UK, social welfare obligations are already unsupportable on any remotely realistic basis of forward projection. Governments have taken on unsustainable commitments because of:
(a) Over-confident assumptions of perpetual growth,
(b) The politicians responsible for taking on these obligations know that they will no longer be in office when the tab turns up.
(c) Politicians have learnt to buy votes by creating client voters who will vote for whomsoever is promising to pay them.
Do you see scope for the US economy to innovate its way back to significant growth?
Innovation is critical. However, three vital points need to be borne in mind:
- Technology uses energy it does not create it and the US seems dangerously complacent about future energy availability (and shales are not the answer-they are not as energy efficient as previous oil and gas discoveries).
- The US all too often makes a free gift of its technology to competitors such as China, most notably through joint ventures with technology-transfer strings attached. See companies like Caterpillar for details.
- The US education system produces too few science and engineering graduates, with colleges being biased towards law and graduates attracted to finance rather than industry.
How about the UK? In both cases I am amazed by the lack of policy innovation. Like them or loathe them the Thatcher and Reagan governments gave us privatization, urban regeneration and similar initiatives. Now there seems to be nothing.
In economic policy, we are trapped in a debate between ultra-free-market economics and Krugman-style neo-Keynesianism.
The weaknesses of neo-classical free market economics have been exposed by the credit super-cycle, whilst the likelihood of a return to Keynesian management is remote (not least because of existing burdens of debt and welfare commitments).
Of course proponents might argue that the only reason these policies have failed is because we have not tried them to their maximum. The neo-Keynesians say that with regard to the poor performance of these policies so far a) matters would have been worse if we hadn't applied them; and b) we just need to borrow and spend more. B) certainly looks unlikely given the diminishing returns from this since long before the crisis, and in any event it is clear that they have spoilt their pitch by forgetting to run a surplus in the boom, as Keynes suggested.
I have more sympathy with the view that free market economics is not to blame as it was never really applied. The crisis was caused not by free markets but by interference with free markets: Clinton's policy on mortgage lending to those who could not afford to service it, the 'Greenspan put' which meant that market operators were always saved by the Fed, Chapter 121 which has keep zombie companies alive, etc.
Do you have any sense of why there is a policy vacuum?
The political structures of both the UK and the US are not fit-for-purpose, mainly because of a bias which favours short-term popularity over strategic thinking. This has been typified by the way in which the Simpson-Bowles warnings have been ignored in the US, and by Britain¹s failure to cut public spending more markedly.
Increasingly, politicians lack real-world experience, and are controlled by media consultants whose focus does not stretch beyond the next headline or sound-bite.
My personal view is that no one should be allowed into high political office unless they satisfy two conditions: a) served in the armed forces or played a full contact team sport; and b) worked in a successful for profit enterprise.
Tim Morgan's recent paper (see a summary here) was gloomy for the future prospects of what we used to call the advanced economies. What in your view is the end game?
Tim is trying to move the debate onwards by highlighting the ultimately physical (energy) nature of the economy, and the widening chasm between the physical and the financial economies.
Logically, the next stage in the end-game will be hyper-inflation as we try to accommodate the monetary structure to the physical economy. The fact that inflation has been explicitly targeted by the Bank of Japan, that the Fed's QE programme is targeted at unemployment and the new Bank of England Governor elect wants to scrap inflation targeting suggests where this will end. None of the current generation of political leaders or central bankers have any experience of high inflation. They do not realise that once the inflation genie is out of the bottle he may not go back in on cue.
At the same time that his paper came out Bain and Co published a paper that said there has never been a better time for long term investment in innovation because borrowing costs are so low and opportunities for a return are so skimpy. Isn't this a time to be bold with industrial policy?
They are entitled to their view. Tim calls such rosy forecasts flat-earth economics, because these projections assume a business-as-usual economy delivering steady growth, and ignore the physical constraints emerging in energy-related economic research.
Specifically, low borrowing costs are likely to become incompatible with escalating inflation. Actuarial studies point to a severe squeeze on capital if slow economic growth continues to undercut the economics of pension schemes.
Moreover, investment can only earn satisfactory returns if we assume adequate consumer purchasing power in the future. If the proportion of consumer incomes required for essentials continues to increase, the scope for discretionary purchases will be squeezed.
Remember that the majority of the consumer spending of the pre-crash years was debt-funded.
What one thing would make a positive difference to the US and UK economies?
Well, there are several specifics, but the big one would be facing up to reality. That way, we could tailor our welfare expectations to fit our likely future economic resources. Tell people the truth. As Abraham Lincoln said I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The greet point is to tell them the facts.
