2 John 1:3
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. (WEB)
Grace, mercy, peace, truth and love. These are five amazing benefits of being joined with both the Father and the Son. Each one of these heavenly attributes are part of your birthright. You don't have to earn them or deserve them. They belong to you because you belong to Jesus.
If we struggle with the concept of inheritance, we may struggle to receive all that God wants to give us. The Bible says in Romans 8:15-17 that we are heirs of God and joint-heirs with Jesus Christ. That means that everything that is part of Jesus' inheritance, now belongs to us too. We are no longer slaves, but heirs of the Most High because we carry the Spirit of Sonship in our hearts (Galatians 4:4-6).
To better understand what has been freely given to us, think of your own family. Your kids will receive your inheritance when you pass away. What do your children do to earn or deserve it? Nothing really. The reason that they are your heirs is that they were born into your family. That is the only qualifier. It is the same thing with God only on a scale that is eternally and immeasurably more than we could ever possibly imagine.
God's will for our lives is grace, mercy and peace in truth and love. Psalm 23 tells us that goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives. We never have to chase them because they will follow us.
My prayer today is that you would know that there is an amazing storehouse of blessings in heaven that our Father has for you simply because you are in His Son. May we all have the faith today to say yes and amen to every good gift that comes from the Father of Lights (James 1:17).
Ephesians 1:3-6
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ; 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without blemish before him in love; 5 having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire, 6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely bestowed favor on us in the Beloved, (WEB)
3 John 1:2
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers. (WEB)
There was a season in my life where my focus was more on what God could give me rather than on God Himself. During that time in my life, I related to God on a contractual basis rather than a relational one. I quoted many Bible verses that spoke of God's blessings and His promises for my own gain. I know I was sincere in my heart at the time, but in hindsight I realize that I was seeking His hand instead of His face.
In the midst of this short season, the Lord lovingly re-centered me to what was really important. And that was simply that He loved me. Regardless of how much I tried to win His favor with hyper religious activity, He continued to love me. It wasn't until His grace and His mercy brought me to a place of complete brokenness and helplessness that I truly had a revelation of His unmerited favor on my life.
That was over 30 ago and since then, I have realized that the greatest gift that I could ever receive is the love that comes from God. Everything else in life absolutely pales in comparison! While I would never advocate seeking prosperity for prosperity's sake, I still believe that the heart of our heavenly Father is to bless us... spirit, soul and body.
In today's Bible reading, John prays that his readers would prosper in all things and be healthy even as their soul was prosperous. My prayer today is that we would all know that our Father cares for every aspect of our lives, even the things that don't seem very spiritual. He has numbered the hairs on our head, He knows what we need before we even ask for it, and He loves to give us the desires of our heart (Psalm 37:4).
While we never ever should seek God just for the things He gives us, we should still realize that He wants us to prosper in all things. He is a good Father who gives good gifts to His kids (Matthew 7:7-11). May we not be afraid to ask, seek and knock today. He is for you and not against you. He wants you to ask Him for what you need. May you have boldness today to ask for His full blessings on every aspect of your life.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future. (WEB)
Jude 1:20-21
But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. (WEB)
What does it mean to 'keep ourselves in the love of God'? In 1 John 4:16, we read that 'everyone who lives in love, lives in God and God in him'. In John 15:9, Jesus says this to His disciples... Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love. (WEB)
The call of the Christian life is to live in love. 1 Corinthians 14:1 tells us... Follow after love, make love your greatest aim. When you think of the characteristics of love, what do you think of? Being nice to people? Preferring others before yourself? Laying down your life for a friend? I would say all these things are expressions of love, but how do we actually 'live in love'?
I really believe that true love is not initiated by us, but by God. Our only responsibility is to respond to the love that He pours out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5). 1 John 4:19 tells us that 'we love because He first loved us'. If we understand that we are the recipients of His love first, then it might help us understand how we can live in His love.
Since His loved is poured out on us by His Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5), and Paul tells us to be continually filled with His Spirit (Ephesians 5:18), I believe that we simply position ourselves to be continually filled with His love. The more that we receive of His personal affection for us, the more that we will be able to love Him back.
The more that we are able to believe that we are the object of our Father's affection, the more that love will bubble up like a fountain out of us and splash over others. As Jesus told His disciples... Love one another as I have loved you. As we learn to receive more of God's intimate love for us, we will be able to express that same love for those around us and therefore we will make our home in love.
My prayer today is that we would all be able to receive a greater outpouring of God's love than we have ever experienced before. May the Holy Spirit increase our capacity to receive His love and may our love tanks be expanded! May the end result be that we would be continually filled and re-filled with the love that God has for us in such an increasing measure that we would literally explode love on all those around us.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
4 Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, 5 doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; 6 doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with. (WEB)
Revelation 14:1
I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him a number, one hundred forty-four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads. (WEB)
I am not a person who feels remotely qualified to explain the Book of Revelation. Much of it is a mystery to me and a book that I will leave to more equipped brothers and sisters in the faith to explain. However, today's Bible reading caught my eye for a particular reason.
I won't try to unpack the meaning of the one hundred forty-four thousand people standing with Jesus on Mount Zion. The only detail of this verse that I want to highlight is the fact that each one of them carried the name of Jesus and the name of His Father, written on their foreheads.
A person's name is very important. It is part of their identity and how people see them. When both the Father and the Son write THEIR name on our foreheads, they are declaring that we belong to God. We carry their identity in our own being. We are still unique in the way that we were created, but now we are joined with Christ who is joined with His Father. As Jesus said in John 17:23... 'I in them and you in me'.
My prayer today is that we would all know that we have been named by God Himself. We carry His inscription in our hearts for all the spiritual realm to see. We are no longer slaves and orphans trying to find an identity apart from the one that was given to us by our Father and our big brother. May the identity that we have received from God bring us all into a deeper sense of rest and peace knowing that we belong to the most amazing family in the universe.
Ephesians 3:14-15
14 For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, (WEB)
Psalm 127:2
It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil; for he gives sleep to his loved ones. (WEB)
Psalm 127 starts off with the well known verse that says that unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless it is the Lord who watches over a city, the guards are wasting their time. (My paraphrase :) The first verse of this psalm speaks of the vanity of human effort. Unless it is the Lord who is doing the building and the watching, our efforts are in vain.
In verse 2 King Solomon writes of the vanity of working in our own strength. Getting up early, staying up late, eating the bread of our toil. I don't believe he is saying that hard work is wrong, but rather that work rooted in independence and self-sufficiency is a waste of time.
The reason I chose today's Scripture verse, is the last part of verse 2...for he gives sleep to his loved ones. For anyone who has ever had trouble sleeping, this is a beautiful promise! Our Father promises to give us rest simply because He loves us! Not because we earn it or deserve it, but for love's sake.
My prayer today is that we would all experience the rest that comes from God alone in our waking hours and in our time of sleep. May we be aware that our Father's heart for us is to come into a Sabbath rest as promised in Hebrews 4:9-11. A rest where we cease from our own works and enter into the rest of God Himself.
May we all see the vanity in our own self-effort and striving and yield to the peace of God that He promises (Romans 8:6). May we all say 'yes' to Jesus' invitation to take His yoke upon us.
Matthew 11:28-30
28 "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." (WEB)
John 16:32
Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. (WEB)
Jesus knew that the hearts of men were fickle. Even His closest friends would abandon Him when their lives were on the line. Though I am sure that He would have liked their support, He fully understood why they would leave Him. The thing that sustained Jesus even in the darkest of times in the Garden of Gethsemane was the fact that His Father would always be with Him.
He was never alone because of the closeness of His Dad. When He was spit upon, His Father was there. When He was mocked, His Father stood by Him. When He was beaten and stripped of His clothes, His Father was near. I can't imagine the grief that Father God experienced watching His beloved Son endure such suffering from sinful man. Yet He never left His boy. He stood by His side.
In the same way that the Father was always with His Son, Jesus also promised to be with us. At the end of His Great Commission to His disciples in Matthew 28:20, He promises to be with us always, even to the very end of the age. My prayer today is that we would all know that we are not alone. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit have promised to never leave us or forsake us.
As Jesus received comfort in knowing that His Father was always with Him, may we also receive the same comfort in our lives. Even when those closest to us abandon us, our God will be closer than we could possibly imagine. May we have eyes to see and a heart to believe that this is the truth today.
Psalm 34:18
Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. (WEB)
Romans 16:20
And the God of peace will quickly crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. (WEB)
Paul's encouragement in today's Scripture verse is simply that it is God who will crush every enemy under your feet. It isn't your own power that will accomplish this, but your Heavenly Dad's! He has a father's heart for you and promises to fight on your behalf! Exodus 14:14 says... "Yahweh will fight for you, and you shall be still." (WEB)
I can remember a season in my life where I struggled with fear. No matter how much I rebuked the enemy, the fear would relentlessly pound on every fiber of my soul. One day I was talking to my dear wife about my struggles and she slapped me on the chest and said these words... "Leave that little boy alone!"
As soon as she did that, I saw a picture of me being a little boy on a playground and fear (which was represented by a 300 lb angry man) was yelling and screaming at me! I was paralyzed by the fear and helpless to fight back. During this vision, I saw my heavenly Father walk onto the playground. I felt His fatherly rage against the fear that was tormenting His little boy.
When fear saw my Dad, it was absolutely terrified and was vanquished immediately. At that moment, I was completely free from the fear that for months before had plagued me. I can honestly say that the God of peace crushed Satan under my feet that day. I didn't do it...My Dad did!
My prayer today is that we would all see that it is our God and Father who promises to save us, rescue us and deliver us. May we rest in His big, strong arms and be comforted in knowing that if God is for us, who can possibly be against us? (Romans 8:31)
Romans 8:29-34
29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified. 31 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things? 33 Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. (WEB)
1 Corinthians 16:13
Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong! (WEB)
I love the rapid fire encouragement that we receive in this very short but powerful verse....
Watch! ... May we all be fully awake spiritually and aware of our spiritual surroundings. In Romans 13:11, the Apostle Paul encourages us to wake up from our slumber because our salvation is nearer now than we first believed. May the Holy Spirit help us not to be ignorant of the devices of the enemy, but alert and watching.
Stand firm in the faith! ...I love how Paul tells us in Ephesians 6:14 to stand firm in the full armor of God. Remember it is not OUR armor, but God's. It is His power that will keep us and protect us all of the days of our lives. Having done all to stand, simply keep standing (Ephesians 6:13).
Be courageous! ...There are many places in the Bible where God tells us not to be afraid because He is with us. Courage is not the absense of fear, but moving forward and not being intimidated in the face of fear. Remember Jesus' words to us in Luke 12:32 - Fear not little flock... It is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom!
Be strong! ...Ephesians 2:10 says, Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. (NIV) Remember, it is not your own strength that you muster up, but God's strength. And how do we yield to God's strength? By not trying to be strong in our own self-effort! Paul got this revelation when he asked the Lord to take away his thorn in the flesh. Jesus appeared to Paul and told him, 'My strength is made perfect in your weakness'. (2 Corinthians 12:1-10)
My prayer today is that one or all of these short bursts of encouragement will strengthen you today. By the power of the Holy Spirit that lives in you, may you have the grace today to be able to... Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
For though we walk in the flesh, we don't wage war according to the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ; (WEB)
Do you know that God has equipped you with mighty weapons of warfare? Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 6:7 that God has given us weapons of righteousness in our right hand and in our left hand! While we live in earthen vessels, the excellency of the power that is in us is from God and not from us (2 Corinthians 4:7). Though the power does not originate from our own self-effort, it still abides in the heart of every believer.
The greatest weapon that the enemy has is deception. In John 8:41-44, Jesus tells us that the devil is the father of lies and when he lies he speaks his native language. His mission is to kill, steal and destroy all that God has placed in us but Jesus' plan is to give us an abundant, overflowing life (John 10:10). The Greek word for 'destroy' used in John 10:10 means to 'render useless'. That means if he can get us to believe that we are not who God says we are, he will render useless our influence in the world.
My prayer today is that we would all know that the power that raised Christ from the dead dwells in our mortal bodies (Romans 8:11). The Spirit of God that lives in us has equipped us with everything that we need to live a godly life (2 Peter 1:3). We do not wage war according to our natural human abilities but through the dynamite power of God that lives within us.
May every feeling of victimization that we struggle with be overcome by the revelation that we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us (Romans 8:37). May faith rise up in our hearts knowing that our Father has not left us alone to fight the battles we will face in this life. He has given us His very own Spirit and the power of the resurrected Christ to give us the strength to resist the enemy.
May God give us the wisdom to know how to take every negative, unbelieving thought captive to the obedience of Christ and put on the full armor of God.
Ephesians 6:10-17
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace; 16 above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; (WEB)
Galatians 4:19
My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you— (WEB)
I love the tenderness in which the Apostle shares today's Bible reading with the Galatians church... With a mother's heart toward them, he speaks of his travail in child birth on their behalf until Christ is formed in them. I appreciate how the Amplified Bible translates Galatians 4:19... My little children, for whom I am again suffering birth pangs until Christ is completely and permanently formed (molded) within you, (AMP)
We are all in the process of having Christ completely and permanently molded within us. We are all being conformed day by day into the image of God's beloved Son. In Romans 8:29, Paul writes... For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. (WEB)
In 2 Corinthians 3:18, Paul describes this process as being transformed from glory to glory. Every day is a new opportunity for us to be transformed from one degree of glory into another. Lamentations 3:23 tells us that God's tender mercies are new every morning, so every day is yet one more chance for us to be fashioned into the image of the first born.
Whether we are aware of the changes or not, we are all going through the process where Christ is being formed in us. So be of good courage and know that He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it (Philippians 1:6). You are His workmanship (Ephesians 2:10), not your own.
It doesn't matter how fast or how slow the process goes. We are all going in the same direction and one day we will ALL be like Jesus when we see Him face to face. My prayer today is that we would all enjoy the journey along the way.
1 John 3:1-2
1 Behold, how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn't know us, because it didn't know him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet revealed what we will be. But we know that, when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is. (WEB)

Auf Flügeln des Gesanges,
Herzliebchen, trag ich dich fort,
Fort nach den Fluren des Ganges,
Dort weiß ich den schönsten Ort;
Dort liegt ein rotblühender Garten
Im stillen Mondenschein,
Die Lotosblumen erwarten
Ihr trautes Schwesterlein.
Die Veilchen kichern und kosen,
Und schaun nach den Sternen empor,
Heimlich erzählen die Rosen
Sich duftende Märchen ins Ohr.
Es hüpfen herbei und lauschen
Die frommen, klugen Gazelln,
Und in der Ferne rauschen
Des heiligen Stromes Well'n.
Dort wollen wir niedersinken
Unter dem Palmenbaum,
Und Liebe und Ruhe trinken,
Und träumen seligen Traum.
Upon wings of song,
my dearest one, I'll transport you
to the Ganges plains,
Where I know the most lovely spot.
There is a garden of red blooms,
and in the solemn moonlight,
the lotus flowers await
Their devoted little sister.
The violets giggle and cuddle,
and stare up at the stars above,
Secretly the roses recite
Their fragant fairy tales.
The pious, smart gazelles,
Leap up and listen;
and in the distance whisper
The waves of a holy stream.
There we will lie down,
under the palm-tree,
and drink of love and peace
And dream our sacred dream.
–Heinrich Heine, Auf Flügeln des Gesanges from Buch der Lieder: Lyrisches Intermezzo, Nr. ix (1827)(S.H. transl.) in: Sämtliche Schriften vol. 1, p. 78 (K. Briegleb ed. 1968).
Listen to Victoria de los Ángeles sing Felix Mendelssohn's "Auf den Flügeln des Gesanges," no. 3 from his opus 34, set to the poem by Heinrich Heine. Mendelssohn makes one modest change in the poem, dropping a syllable to turn "heiligen" into "heilgen." Throughout Heine's poetry we see the struggle between the palm tree and the evergreen, the ironic and subtle suggestion that he is a transplanted Middle Easterner with romantic sentiments more suitable to a hotter clime. Mendelssohn does a bit with this, but his Lied style is pure, simple and extremely beautiful. Happy two hundredth birthday to Felix Mendelssohn.

This was a stay-cation for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. The service was perfect and the hotel was trendy. My only complaint about the room was the lack of a refrigerator. Also the elevators could use some A/C. I highly recommend.
Always a great stay. Very clean rooms. Great staff. Valet parking is very expensive.
The hotel staff was great!!! From the time we parked the car to the time we checked out. Everyone was so friendly and attentive. The bed was absolutely amazing and so comfortable!! My husband even ask what kind it was!! Thank you Glenn Hotel for making our weekend getaway wonderful!

I just had to share this adorable stuff that came out of my little one's mouth yesterday morning. She just nurses in the morning now (2 years and 4 months), and it's very precious to me, even though it's inconvenient (she wakes to nurse just when I need to help my 10yo focus on getting out the door).
As we climbed down from the rocking chair and headed down the stairs, she remarked (in her 2 year old voice), "I'm all done with my milk, mom. I ate it all. It's gone now. It's good for me. It makes me happy."
Tee-hee! Totally unprompted, it sounded like a nursing commercial!! A whole different world than nursing a baby. It's lovely after all the months of gymnastics nursing we've had :)
Oh that sweetness! All my 13 month old baby son does is fondling me when he breastfeeds. It crack mes up.
ooh thats lovely. im still breastfeeding my 18 months son and i love it. thats really special moment for me. becasue i didnt bf my first child i can tell that i see big difference. and i can recommend bf to all new mums. at the beginning its really hard. but its worth it!!
that is sooooo sweet! i''m with Krystallina - my 12 month old son just feels me up. if my other nipple is exposed he can't leave it alone. and the gymnastics! oy! i'm glad to hear those will (most likely) eventually end.

Does app data suggest we are nearing peak social?

According to data from website traffic and mobile app analytics service SimilarWeb, the answer just might be yes.
How the Democratic presidential candidates are using social media
The 2016 Presidential primaries are well under way, and not surprisingly, all of the candidates are actively using social media to rally support.

The Facebook 'context collapse': how decline in personal sharing might affect brands
Facebook is evolving, and one of the trends has the attention of the CEO of the world's largest social network.
Facebook users are sharing less about themselves and Mark Zuckerberg is personally imploring his staff to reverse the trend of what the company internally refers to as "context collapse."
Do you need to be on that new social media platform?
Not too many years ago brands were deliberating on whether to embrace social media at all, and for those that did there were relatively few platforms to choose from.
Now, however, it seems there's a new social media platform to get excited about every month.
The landscape has completely changed, and it can be daunting for brands to take the plunge and plough resources into something that isn't guaranteed to return any value.
Is Twitter getting too noisy for high-profile users?
Celebrities and athletes often turn to Twitter to interact with their fans, but for one of the National Basketball Association's biggest stars the popular platform became too noisy.
As his following grew into the millions, Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors started using Twitter less and less, something his former university roommate, Bryant Barr, noticed.

The rise of dark social: Everything you need to know
You'd be forgiven for thinking the term 'dark social' refers to some kind of demonic get-together during which attendees feast on blood to please their overlords.
While potentially irksome to social media managers, dark social is somewhat less sinister than the above.
It simply refers to social sharing that can't be accurately tracked, i.e. the stuff that isn't picked up by web analytics platforms.

N.Y. police warn men about 200-lb. "Hugging Bandit"
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) -- She's a 200-pound-plus hugging machine, but her affection comes with a price. Police are warning men about the ''Hugging Bandit,'' who heartily embraces men coming out of downtown bars and leaves them wallet-less. Dozens of men say they have been victims. Police say others are too embarrassed to admit it.
''She doesn't just go up to you and hug you,'' said Detective Sgt. Tom Donovan. ''She actually grabs (them), tries to talk them into something more, and there goes their wallet.''
The Hugging Bandit has been striking for about the past decade, typically between 2 and 4 a.m. She uses the credit cards she steals within hours of her theft, police said.
''As far as I can tell, she waits until it's late at night and these guys coming out of the bars are tipsy,'' Donovan said. ''They're either going to their car or going to the hot dog vendor ... She makes sure they're rip-roaring drunk.''
Officers believe she is a 48-year-old Buffalo woman they have arrested 17 times between 1998 and 2005 for similar schemes, as well as prostitution and criminal possession of stolen property.
Her most recent theft was early Sunday. A man told police a heavyset woman approached him for sex. When he said no, she gave him a hug and left -- with his wallet containing $25, his driver's license and debit cards.
On Wednesday, police showed the man a photo array that included the woman suspected in the case. The man admitted that he was too drunk to remember her.

Matt Gade, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY – For the first 20 minutes against BYU, Utah State looked like it could stand toe-to-toe with anybody. In the second 20 minutes it had the look of a very average team as BYU steamrolled the Aggies in the second half.
"We played good for a half," Aggie head coach Stew Morrill said. "The second half BYU owned the game. Give them all the credit in the world. They were the aggressors. They hurt us on the break, driving the ball to the basket. We couldn't get them stopped."
The Aggies shot a blistering 59 percent in the first half but couldn't find the same rhythm in the second half. Shooting on the other basket, USU dropped to only 35 percent. All the missed shots played right into the Cougars' hands as BYU ran the ball up and down the court and pushed a tempo that was not comfortable for Utah State.
"We couldn't make a shot, so we couldn't get into our zone, which really helped us in the first half," Morrill said. "I thought when we were able to get into our zone in the first half it slowed them down a bit. We weren't able to do that in the second half."
The Aggies were playing their third game in a week but wouldn't use fatigue as a factor despite the breakneck pace the game was played at. Instead, the team focused on the defensive effort, which allowed 54 points in the paint and 20 fast-break points.
"They were just driving right by us," Aggie guard Spencer Butterfield said. "Our defense wasn't very strong. We need to guard the ball a little better. They took advantage of that."
It's a factor that Morrill will take into practice for the Aggies in the coming weeks. Utah State won't leave the friendly confines of the Spectrum in December and has a real chance to rip off another long winning streak before conference play begins.
"They manhandled us in the second half. That's disappointing. We have to try and learn from it and get better," Morrill said. "It's early in the year. BYU has a really good basketball team. If we can get to where we can defend a little better we will have a nice team."

Chart of the week (29)
Rapeseed price exceeds that of wheat
The price gap between rapeseed and wheat has widened at the end of 2015/16. As harvest pressure wanes, this trend could continue in 2016/17 because, due to poor weather, the EU harvest will be considerably smaller. The European grain and oilseed traders' association Coceral/Copa-Cocega estimates the 2016/17 EU rapeseed supply at 21.2 million tonnes, expecting it to be even tighter than the previous marketing year. The reason is weather-related declines in yield. Although wheat was also affected by the unfavourable weather, especially in May and June 2016, prospects for supply are significantly better as global production is expected to hit a record. Meanwhile, there is scope for upward price movements of rapeseed based on decreasing production both in the EU and worldwide. In other words, the reduced supply to the market will be reflected in prices this year too. Buyers paid around EUR 334 ex farm per tonne of rapeseed already in July 2016. This was just less than EUR 200 per tonne more than what they paid for wheat.
Chart of the week (28)
Rapeseed stocks continue to slide in 2016/17
Global demand for rapeseed is likely to exceed supply in 2016/17, as it did in 2015/16. Consequently, supplies could continue their slide, opening room for price increases in the long term. USDA currently estimates the 2016/17 global rapeseed production at 66.5 million tonnes, down just under 1.7 million tonnes from the previous year. Harvests in the top producing countries – Canada, China and the European Union – are expected to drop. China is projected to see the largest reduction in output, by around 7 per cent, to 13.3 million tonnes. At the same time, the USDA forecast puts the amount of rapeseed used in processing at 64.8 million tonnes. This figure is down from the previous year, but continues to be large. As at the end of the marketing year, global ending stocks could amount to around 3.7 million tonnes. This would translate to a 13-year low.

Soybean meal prices shot up
Spiking soybean prices have very recently also pulled up soybean meal prices in Germany. Wet conditions delaying harvest operations in Argentina and affecting soybean quality sent forward prices rocketing to a ten-month high. In April 2016, the previous downward slide of soybean meal prices ended abruptly. Prices delivered free to yard were up 14 per cent already in May 2016 and even saw a 17 per cent rise in June. At the same time, GMO and non-GMO soybean meal went up to virtually the same extent. The price spread between the two feed components recently amounted to EUR 89 per tonne. This is little more than the EUR 85 per tonne seen in the previous 2016 period. Consequently, the premium actually declined steadily compared to the previous years. In 2015, buyers had to pay on average EUR 99 per tonne more for GMO-free soybean meal and in 2013, it was in fact EUR 115 per tonne more. Until now, especially dairies in southern Germany have been known for focussing on milk produced without GMO feed or even without soybean meal. Now it is reported that some dairies from Schleswig-Holstein are planning to stop accepting the use of soybean meal feed as of October 2016.
Chart of the week (26)
Prices for the two rapeseed crops converge
The comparatively low producer prices have dampened trade in the upcoming rapeseed crop for a long period of time. As a result, less rapeseed than usual has been bound in contracts to date. June bids for rapeseed on the cash market saw a massive decline in the wake of substantially declining rapeseed prices in Paris and slow demand. Prices 'free to the Lower Rhine' as at the end of the month were reported at EUR 352 per tonne, down EUR 19 per tonne from the previous month. Against this background, there was hardly any rapeseed offered. Taking advantage of the firm prices of the past few months, farmers contracted into agreements for the supply of their usual quantities in 2016/17. These would amount to approximately 30-40 per cent of the estimated harvest. Before offering anything, farmers are now waiting for the harvest to start and provide first crop figures. Rapeseed was not spared by the poor weather that affected many European areas. Drought in the east and heavy rainfalls in the south-west and south-east of Europe have reduced the yield potential. To date, MARS experts have projected the yield at 32 decitonnes per hectare. Although this figure would exceed the long-time average by 1 per cent, it is down 1 decitonne per hectare from the May 2016 estimate.
Chart of the week (25)
Volatile soybean meal prices curb demand
A volatile euro rate ahead of the Brexit referendum is generating substantial price movements. However, soybean meal remains at a high level, putting an additional damper on demand. The UK's referendum on EU membership is creating uncertainty in the international finance and futures markets. According to Agrarmarkt Informations-Gesellschaft mbH (AMI), the uncertainty also has an impact on prices for soybean meal imports in that prices are adjusted daily – and sometimes substantially. Nevertheless, at around EUR 390 per tonne for 44 per cent soybean meal and EUR 420 per tonne for 48 per cent soybean meal, wholesale prices continue to be at their highest level in 17 months. In view of the exceptionally large price volatility, there is great uncertainty among market participants, especially because they speculate on price reductions in the wake of the upcoming US soybean harvest. First, however, markets must stabilise, which could take some time if Britain actually leaves the EU-28.

Weak palm oil prices force down vegetable oil price index
The vegetable oil price index of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) dropped by 3 per cent in May 2016, interrupting the upward trend seen since January. Following a sharp rise by virtually one fifth since the beginning of the year, in May the upward trend was stopped for the time being. Prices for palm oil, the world's most important vegetable oil, saw a sharp drop in the wake of slack global demand combined with a surprisingly high output in the top palm oil producing countries. According to information published by Agrarmarkt Informations-Gesellschaft mbH (AMI), the index of 163 points was down 3 per cent from the previous month, but up 6 per cent on the previous year's level. The FAO price index measures the changes in international prices for ten different vegetable oils, weighted with their export shares in world trade. The Union for the Promotion of Oil and Protein Plants e.V. (UFOP) believes that raising the biodiesel blending requirements for biodiesel from palm oil is the only choice that is immediately effective on a large scale in the palm oil producing countries. The example of Malaysia illustrates this point. The country recently increased the blending quota to 10 per cent. Along with EU-based refineries producing hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO), the chemical industry also benefits from this pressure on prices. UFOP points out that in Germany, the entire rapeseed crop has been certified as sustainable to meet legal requirements. According to UFOP, the leading palm oil exporting countries continue to be far from meeting this kind of standard. In fact, EU politicians should take this year's forest fires in Indonesia as a warning to further develop the sustainability requirements for biofuel feedstock specified in the European Renewable Energy Directive, instead of virtually abolishing them as the current funding period expires in 2020, UFOP suggests.
Chart of the week (23)
Heavy rains damage French sunflower crops
The sunflower area in France, the EU's fourth biggest producer of sunflowers, will likely be significantly smaller than expected. Consequently, the EU Commission could reduce its previously positive area forecast to project negative figures for 2016. France apparently suffered significant losses as heavy rains caused flooding. The French ministry of agriculture currently estimates the sunflower area at 587,000 hectares, down 5 per cent from a year earlier. The EU Commission projected 619,000 hectares for France still in May. According to Agrarmarkt Informations-Gesellschaft mbH (AMI), the Commission's forecast is still very vague anyway. The experts in Brussels have previously put EU sunflower production for the 2016 harvest slightly higher than a year earlier. However, given what has been happening not only in France, the previous year's level will probably be difficult to attain.
Chart of the week (22)
Rapeseed prices rally
Cash market prices for rapeseed have gone up considerably and exceeded the previous year's level for several weeks. Producers are paid more than previously also for new-crop contracts. The upward trend continues for the time being given the significantly tighter 2016/17 supply. Rapeseed for prompt delivery currently fetches on average EUR 359 per tonne free storage facility. This translates to a rise of EUR 6 per tonne on the previous year. Buyers accept to pay EUR 346 per tonne for new-crop material. This is even a EUR 11 per tonne surge from the same time a year earlier. According to information published by Agrarmarkt Informations-Gesellschaft mbH (AMI), with the exception of only a few locations, little new business is generated despite rising prices in the old-crop positions. The reason is that supply is very tight. Interest in contracts is also small, because farmers speculate on additional price increases. Such increases are likely because global supply declines while 2016/2017 demand will presumably be brisk.
Chart of the week (21)
Diesel prices rally substantially
Prices for partially taxable agricultural diesel are on a firm trend, moving closer to those for biodiesel and almost reaching the level of rapeseed oil. The trend is driven by a massive rise in crude oil prices. The nearby futures price on the NYMEX currently stands at just under the mark of 50 USD per barrel, hitting a eight-month high. The competitive position of biodiesel at the wholesale level has improved over the past few weeks. In other words, standard biodiesel having a potential greenhouse gas emission reduction of around 60 per cent over fossil fuels currently costs 72 euro cents per litre. This is only 7 euro cents per litre more than agricultural diesel. At the beginning of April 2016, the difference still amounted to almost 15 euro cents per litre. The surge in diesel prices is due to a massive increase in prices for crude oil. According to Agrarmarkt Informations-Gesellschaft mbH (AMI), crude oil prices are driven up by rising global demand combined with declining supply. Rapeseed oil prices in Germany also trend firm based on scarce nearby supply and climbing feedstock prices.

The increase in revenue was driven by growth of infectious disease products in the quarter, due to the onset of an early and severe influenza and respiratory disease season.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $8.7 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.0 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding amortization of intangibles, stock compensation expense, and including the income tax benefit of research and development tax credit in 2012, net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $12.5 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the same period in 2011.
"We were pleased with our ability to respond to the sudden increase in demand for our flu tests. While sales of QuickVue Influenza A+B benefited most, the Sofia, D3 Ultra, and Quidel Molecular PCR products were a contributor to the increase in revenues in the quarter as well," said Douglas Bryant, president and chief executive officer. "More importantly, our product development teams achieved several key milestones during the period, and we are now poised to introduce a number of new products over the next several quarters," added Bryant.
Full Year 2012 Results
Total revenues for 2012 were $155.7 million as compared to $158.6 million in 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, net income was $5.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in 2011. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding amortization of intangibles, stock compensation expense, and including the income tax benefit of research and development tax credit in 2012, net income for the full year 2012 was $19.1 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, compared to net income of $19.8 million, or $0.59 per share, for the full year 2011.
"Even though the revenue impact of an early start to the influenza season was a positive for our quarter and year, our focus lies in diversifying our company's revenue mix and creating other growth opportunities. Our efforts are reflected, noticeably, in the increase in 2012 of R&D and sales and marketing expenses ahead of the launch and commercialization of AmpliVue C. difficile and several other Sofia and Quidel Molecular products in 2013," concluded Bryant.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company's consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP. The Company is providing non-GAAP financial information to present net income and earnings per share excluding the effect of stock-based compensation and amortization of intangibles and including the effect of the research and development tax credit in 2012. Although the research and development tax credit relates to 2012, the benefit of the tax credit cannot be recognized until 2013 under GAAP, the result of legislative approval occurring in January, 2013.
Management is providing the adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share information for the periods presented because it believes this enables a better comparison of the Company's financial performance from period-to-period, and to that of its competitors. This press release is not meant to be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures is included in this press release as part of the attached financial tables.

I have been supporting Utah's public education system since I went to the little red schoolhouse in Clearfield over 80 years ago. We have raised four children and 16 grandchildren in public schools with great success. I feel providing education for all children in the public system is America's greatest legacy and our promise of a chance for success. Yes, my company has built more than 150 schools, but I advocated this attitude long before I began building schools.
