There Has Never Been a Better Time to Invest in Greece
If you are looking at this title with incredulity, I understand. But after I've made my case, I think you'll agree too.
Assessing opportunities and taking calculated risks are part of the job description for a VC. My calculations for Greece, as an investor, all come up positive. And it's not mere speculation—there are real world results backing this up.
A few definitions:
A private, early-stage–high risk investor gets a number of shares and hopes that in the mid-term there will be buyers willing to purchase those shares at a (much) higher price.
Investing at an early stage means you get a larger share of a company for a relatively smaller amount of money. It also means increased risk.
What's special about Greece is that Greek startups are undervalued compared with American and other European ones.
This allows early stage investors to buy at Greek prices and then sell at (much higher) Western European or American valuations. It doesn't get any better than this.
While the "Greek startup ecosystem" is still in its early development, there are success stories and strong indicators that it can produce companies of considerable value. BugSense, Crypteia Networks, AbZorba Games, e–Food.gr and others were founded and developed in Greece, and then sold to foreign buyers.
That's not to say success is easy, but it is certainly within reach, and that makes an increased number of talented entrepreneurs have a go at it, presenting early stage–high risk investors with a formidable, and mostly untapped, selection of investment opportunities.
Another important factor is that there's now a lot of hard earned experience. The last several years a lot of investment money vanquished in a painful, but necessary, attempt to create a new investment marketplace. Entrepreneurs who failed at their first attempts are back in the game, but this time much more experienced and with a much better sense of the business side of things. In short, current conditions are especially welcoming to early stage–high risk investments.
The European Investment Fund recently made available 260 million Euros for the creation of investment funds for Greek startups, an acknowledgment that an organization such as the EIF recognizes the investment opportunities that Greece presents—though it is still upon the Greek private investors, who are called to participate in these funds, whether the program will be a success or not.
I believe the Greek entrepreneurial and investment ecosystems have matured to the point of making it investor attractive—an opportunity we should not ignore!

Just a wonderful series. Lisa Kudrow is phenomenally talented and outdoes herself in this quirky series. Full of absurd characters in preposterous situations there is fantastic opportunities for roles based comedy. You can clearly see the funding injection that happened when Showtime bought the series and suddenly the cameos were HUGE. She is yet another wonderfully talented comedian and this series is a no brainer. 8.5/10.

I almost dismissed this show after reading the comments below, but the subject so intrigued me. After watching 3 episodes, I know I am going to continue watching the show (that's unusual in itself because I normally decide whether I like it or not after first episode). This is a show you should go into without any expectations and just observe each character including Lisa Kudrow, then you might find yourself smile and even laugh time to time. It gets better as story develops. Remember, this is a comedy.

I think this show may have promise - althout Kudrow's accent is massively odd - and she only manages to stick to it for a portion of the show. But the premise of the show, in the hands of the right writers, may work. Will watch another episode and then decide!

This was just bad. I was expecting to see Lisa's usual fun witty, awkward self; but it just came out lame and unbelievable. Won't watch another episode!

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Two female students testified on the first day of suspended Michigan safety Josh Furman's assault and domestic violence trial that they did not feel threatened by Furman during an incident in an Ann Arbor residence on Feb. 11.
Furman is charged with three misdemeanors: Domestic violence, illegal entry and assault and battery. The trial continues Thursday at 9 a.m. ET.
The witnesses testified in Michigan's 15th District Court that they were trying to stop him from reaching the back room of the residence, where a man who had allegedly sent explicit text messages about one of the female witnesses to Furman was hiding.
"We grabbed (Furman) by the arm," one of the female witnesses said. "I grabbed some of his hair."
Both witnesses said they did this to keep Furman from reaching their friend who sent the text messages.
"It probably wouldn't have ended well," one of the witnesses said if Furman had reached the man who sent the text messages.
According to all three witnesses who testified Monday, Furman and Michigan freshman cornerback Tamani Carter showed up at the residence of two of the witnesses -- one male and one female -- who testified Monday and asked to speak with a third female witness outside about the text messages. Carter has not been charged in the case.
Furman then entered the apartment and the two female witnesses successfully attempted to keep him from the back room while asking him to leave. One of the female witnesses, who lived at the residence, said Furman was usually allowed to enter as he pleased.
However, Furman and Carter allegedly did not immediately leave the premises and the two female witnesses called for the third witness, a male who lived in the apartment. He testified he threatened Furman and Carter and that he would call the police if they did not leave. When they stayed, he called the police.
By the time he was off the phone following a conversation he testified lasted between four and five minutes, Furman and Carter had left.
All those that testified Monday said they were either friends of Furman or had met him through one of the witnesses. One witness testified Furman had been at the residence twice earlier that evening.
The third witness, who called 911, also testified Monday he did not realize at the time Furman was not attacking the girls but rather trying to reach a back room where the man who sent the text messages was.
At one point, between the second and third witnesses called by the prosecution Monday, defense attorney Gerry Mason approached the prosecution with a plea bargain to just the illegal entry charge, which was not accepted. Furman said nothing throughout the proceedings, occasionally drinking water while wearing a suit.
"My take on it was, why put all these young people, who are friends, through hell," Mason said.
Washtenaw County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Patricia Reiser had no comment leaving the courtroom Monday, saying the trial was still ongoing.
A Michigan spokesman said Monday that Carter is an active member of the football team. Furman remains suspended.

This was a clean & tidy room with a lovely balcony overlooking the lake. The staff were all friendly and helpful and we couldn't have really asked for better value at £29 a night. The room was spacious with plenty of storage for a short stay, a comfortable bed and a full freeview TV which was nice to have. The restaurant next door was fairly good, with decent food for a low price. I can't really think of any negatives, everything was very good value & very good quality for a budget price. I would highly recommend it if you can get a lake view.

Women in suits
are my kryptonite
"What is it about wearing a tuxedo or that little black dress, that makes us feel confident, beautiful, splendid, even invincible? We put on formal wear and suddenly we become extraordinary. On the days when you feel low and invisible, why not try this on for size: imagine you are wearing a fantastic tailored tuxedo or a stunning formal gown. And then proceed with your day."
I'm so proud of my girls.

Doing Oral History is considered the premier guidebook to oral history, used by professional oral historians, public historians, archivists, and genealogists as a core text in college courses and throughout the public history community. Over the past decades, the development of digital audio and video recording technology has continued to alter the practice of oral history, making it even easier to produce quality recordings and to disseminate them on the Internet. This basic manual offers detailed advice on setting up an oral history project, conducting interviews, making video recordings, preserving oral history collections in archives and libraries, and teaching and presenting oral history. Using the existing Q&A format, the third edition asks new questions and augments previous answers with new material, particularly in these areas: 1. Technology: As before, the book avoids recommending specific equipment, but weighs the merits of the types of technology available for audio and video recording, transcription, preservation, and dissemination. Information about web sites is expanded, and more discussion is provided about how other oral history projects have posted their interviews online. 2. Teaching: The new edition addresses the use of oral history in online teaching. It also expands the discussion of Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) with the latest information about compliance issues. 3. Presentation: Once interviews have been conducted, there are many opportunities for creative presentation. There is much new material available on innovative forms of presentation developed over the last decade, including interpretive dance and other public performances. 4. Legal considerations: The recent Boston College case, in which the courts have ruled that Irish police should have access to sealed oral history transcripts, has re-focused attention on the problems of protecting donor restrictions. The new edition offers case studies from the past decade. 5. Theory and Memory: As a beginner's manual, Doing Oral History has not dealt extensively with theoretical issues, on the grounds that these emerge best from practice. But the third edition includes the latest thinking about memory and provides a sample of some of the theoretical issues surrounding oral sources. It will include examples of increased studies into catastrophe and trauma, and the special considerations these have generated for interviewers. 6. Internationalism: Perhaps the biggest development in the past decade has been the spreading of oral history around the world, facilitated in part by the International Oral History Association. New oral history projects have developed in areas that have undergone social and political upheavals, where the traditional archives reflect the old regimes, particularly in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The third edition includes many more references to non-U.S. projects that will still be relevant to an American audience. These changes make the third edition of Doing Oral History an even more useful tool for beginners, teachers, archivists, and all those oral history managers who have inherited older collections that must be converted to the latest technology.

I am the forgotten person at funerals, the ghost who wanders amongst the congregation making sure they have everything they need before the service starts. I appear to do nothing. I've placed a few orders of service on seats, I'm asking you all to come forward because, if you're not family, you all want to sit as close to the back of the chapel as possible. On that, I sometimes wish we could put you all on a carousel so you all get the same amount of time closer to the front as possible. After the funeral what I do is mechanical. Industrial. I dispose of bodies inside a coffin. I cremate, grind up and pre-package your loved one in a cardboard box. All with care and compassion but it is broken down into this very basic model death- funeral directors – funeral – refrigeration (depending how busy it is) – cremation – cremulate – ashes. How can I expect anyone to make sense of this? How can a wealth of memories just be dust that we can hold in one hand? I found it difficult when picking up the ashes of my cat. At a funeral at the crematorium people attempt to say goodbye to a lifetime of memories inside a 45-minute slot, other crematoriums its 30 minute slots. We are a little bit more generous to stop the feel of a conveyor belt. 7.5 minutes to get you all in, 30-minute service, and 7.5 minutes to get you all back out again. The ministers, officiants, sometimes family members do an incredible job at summing up a life in that time but is it really possible? I don't think so. But it is the public slot of grieving. Where everyone who knew that person spends time together to grieve for their loss. But grief is private. Grief is personal. And people think if they aren't family they aren't allowed to grieve as much, and that is the reason they all want to sit nearer the back of the chapel.
In my time at the crematorium I have been involved with over 7000 funerals, some front of house in the funerals and some back of house cremating. The people who walk through the doors all have one thing in common; loss. And death brings out the best in people or it brings out the worst. The bereaved tend to be the easiest of people to work for because they tend to be easy going and usually allow themselves to be led. But sometimes, just sometimes people will amaze you. We had a funeral for a local homeless man. Now we have toilets on site but this particular gentleman chose the bushes next to the rose plaque memorials as the most adequate place to relive himself. Maybe force of habit. And at the other end of society we then had the funeral for a very famous, national hero, where a mourner seemed to believe she was more important than the family. Picture this, nearly 150 people in this congregation, 133 seats available in chapel and the family yet to arrive. I had asked for everyone to remain outside while we await the funeral cortege. All I remember was the red hair and the pompousness of her voice as she said to me, standing in front of closed chapel doors 'surely it would be best if we all sat down first?' as if I didn't know my own job.
I bit my lip and very professionally responded 'No madam, it would not be best as the main family are yet to arrive, if I seat you all first, then it is likely they would have to remain standing or an embarrassing situation would ensue as I ask those seated to stand and make way for the main family, wouldn't it?'
She scoffed at me as if I was shit on her shoe. You don't get many of them, but there are one or two. It's the money that does it I think.
Whether they are from the very expensive postcodes or the places where the dole queue stretches out of the post office, they are all bereaved. We do not treat anyone any differently here. Lower class, upper class or somewhere in between you are still Sir and Madam to me. You need words of kindness or a listening ear we are here. I once met a mourner who came to lay flowers in the flower room for his late wife, every Wednesday. I always used to run into him when I cleared out the dead flowers. He reminded me of my dad because he would always have a joke to tell, usually dirty. Then one morning I ran into him and he wasn't his usual quirky self. It would have been his anniversary and he sobbed his heart out. I gave him a hug and he joked about touching another woman on his anniversary.
I have other duties other than making sure funerals run smoothly and cremating. I scatter ashes, with or without family witnesses, whatever the family has chosen. But that pretty much is the long and short of it. It is an honour to do what I do. You hear so many stories of local people, some who have moved away and their final resting place is their once local cemetery, some who never set foot out of the town and some who are being cremated here because their family are settled here. No two funerals are the same let alone days. I like the ying and yang of my job, the different people I speak to, the different types of people I deal with and how I must deal with each one differently.
Crematorium Technician/Chapel attendant – It's not something I ever thought I would end up doing, it was never my dream career. My dream career was a writer, even that was a half-hearted desire. I love football. In all honesty, I wish I had made it to the very top in that, but I played to a very high level in my early twenties and won silverware so that I will have to do. But I ambled through a BTEC National diploma in sport at college, passed with straight distinctions and decided, with help from my form tutor, I would go to University because I hadn't chosen a career path. The university brochure flopped open on professional and creative writing and I thought it would be awesome to combine sport and writing. Six months later I found myself surrounded by a group of people, some who have gone on to be published authors. I was a bottle cap floating on the tide. I didn't sink but I didn't quite belong either.
Graduating University with a 2.1 BA honours in Professional and Creative writing was meant to spur me on to big things. But the young and dumb me thought I'd make it without really attempting to write much other than what I had already done at uni. I entered a few poetry and short story competitions, nothing came of it and I stopped altogether. But my thirst for reading grew. My tutor Peter Dewar was to thank for that. He first encouraged me to read and then reinforced the importance of reading for a creative writer, that was what my dissertation was on. My two chapters of a novel was dog shit but my thesis was good. He said if I ever stopped writing I was to keep reading. It enhances your chances of improving your skills without even using them. Imagine that. Improving on something you're not even doing. Like getting an easier six pack when you finally do get your fat ass down the gym. He wasn't wrong. I have kept a reading list since university and read tons of books, quite literally tons because I am good old fashioned books none of the kindle ones (I refuse to own one). That has increased tenfold since I started working at the crematorium. I'll charge a coffin and get to read for an hour. It does appear that this diary/book was always coming. It was in my genes. At university they always say write what you know best, concentrate on your own experiences and these are all mine.
I fell out of university into a couple of retail jobs and then into Royal mail. I loved that job for how fit it kept me. In all my years of playing football I have never been as fit as when I was doing that job. However, the powers that be declined to give me a full time contract and I was stuck on a six month, 30 hour rolling contract. I had to find a new job, at the same time my brother was looking for employment so my parents were always circling job ads for him. Inadvertently they circled a crematorium technicians job, ten minutes' walk from home. I read it, encouraging him to go for it. Reading it, I said to him he'll have some competition because I may even go for it because of how local it was. Then I found out a friend worked and was a director at another cemetery, I told him my plans and he encouraged me to come down to his cemetery to see if I could do the job. It's not for everyone. So that's what I did. I applied with that experience from that day and got the job.
I remember seeing my first skeleton. The white laying against a back glow of orange, like a white-skinned sunbather under the Mediterranean sun. Only this isn't a holiday. This is death. They are gone, and all that remains are the bits people never got to see. All that is left are calcified remains (technical term). The flesh and the internal organs burn away. The majority of our body is just fluid, a substance the flames consume. Even after all the years of doing this job I sometimes feel my bones beneath my flesh and ask myself how can that be. I have seen more of that person than they ever got to see of themselves. Their friends and family knew all that they were but I've seen that person's bones.
We had a doctor signing off documents for paperwork on site once. He had missed the funeral of a dear friend that morning. Knowing he had missed the service he asked if he could see the coffin. Unfortunately, we had already cremated the body (yes, the coffin is cremated also, I'll bust a few myths in other posts). But the remains weren't cremulated. The hip bone was still visible, part of the skull was sat on top of the pile.
'That's ok,' he said 'I'd like to see what is left of him.'
So over he came from the crematorium offices to the crematorium itself and I placed his uncremulated remains on the side for him to spend some time with. All official and respectful as I could.
'He was always a bit disorganised,' he said. 'he would have loved to have lost that much weight in life as he has in death.'
He howled with laughter at his own joke and I laughed as respectfully as I could. But there's something about other people in the profession. Doctors, funeral directors, clergy. We have to laugh in the face of death. We have to create a gallows humour because the sights we have seen and the tragedy we are subjected to, although not our own, would drive us insane. We can only do what we do by having a sense of humour, and that doesn't mean being disrespectful either. It is a coping mechanism. Not many people can do our jobs and not many people are even aware of our jobs until a loved one passes on.
This blog is based on my experiences in my job. Because it is a job that interests people or turns their stomachs. It is a job that people should know more about. Death is a part of life. Lets talk about it.

Lee Hamilton: Our system comes with no guarantees
By LEE HAMILTON
Thursday, January 12, 2017 9:46 AM
BLOOMINGTON – The problem is not just the politicians. It's us, too.
There are a lot of dire predictions about our representative democracy out there. We're just past a presidential election campaign in which candidates complained about a rigged political system. Now, commentators worry about the imminent failure of the American experiment.
I don't agree with these predictions of calamity. Our representative democracy is not on the verge of collapse. But I do see stresses and tensions that should concern anyone who cares about our system of self-government. Our representative democracy has been remarkably stable and successful for over two hundred years, but that is no guarantee it will survive and prosper.
The mere fact that this nation is filled with so many citizens who have lost confidence in key institutions is worrisome. The Gallup organization's ongoing polling has found declines in public confidence over the past few decades in everything from the Supreme Court and Congress to the police and even the military. It shows a pervasive drop in public regard for the institutions that undergird American life.
The reasons stem in part from a declining willingness among the people who inhabit those institutions to observe the norms of behavior that evoke public confidence. This is notable especially on Capitol Hill and in political life, where the parties seem to have abandoned fair play and taken to using institutions to maximize partisan advantage. In the Senate, the recent refusal even to hold hearings on the president's nominee to the Supreme Court brought the lack of comity between branches to a new low.
Politicians engage in a degree of partisanship that a few decades ago would have disqualified them in the eyes of the voting public. They attack opposing politicians' patriotism, impugn their loyalty, accuse them of criminal activity, question the fairness of the election process itself — with virtually no evidence — and seek to undermine their effectiveness in office. Small wonder that elected officials' legitimacy is increasingly called into question among the public at large.
If we had a media that prized both the vigilance and impartiality it displayed during its heyday, these tendencies might not run so rampant. Similarly, if politicians were willing to negotiate, compromise, and search for remedies to the nation's challenges, then our current dysfunctional inability to get things done would be less of a hallmark of these times.
Yet too many politicians seem fine with dysfunction. They appear more interested in holding power than in using it to solve problems. They reject the norms of behavior in a civil society — for example, the New York politician who wished President Obama dead of mad cow disease. They sidestep accountability and transparency: tweeting their stances rather than facing hard questions, avoiding press conferences that would give reporters a chance to hold them to account, preferring public rallies to the give and take that allows the public to examine and scrutinize their stances.
All of this poses real challenges to the system. So what might be done to restore public faith in its fairness, justness and decency?
Paul Light, a professor of public service at New York University, recently came out with a paper, "What Americans Want from Government Reform," that reinforces the proposals many reformers have been pushing in recent years. His list of fixes that would enjoy support among ordinary Americans in both parties includes reducing the role of money in elections, boosting ethical constraints on elected officials, reducing waste and inefficiency, finding ways to increase the voices of ordinary citizens, and ensuring that civil servants and political appointees are qualified and competent.
Americans don't expect miracles. They just want the basic features of government to work. But here's the thing: Making this happen is up to us. Politicians may be directly responsible for the problems above, but you and I as voters allow them to get away with it. We voted them into office, kept them there, and paid little attention to their shenanigans.
The problem is not just the politicians. It's us, too. The first words of the Constitution read, "We the People," not, "We the Government." It's up to us to strive for a more perfect union, and to be vigilant about these adverse tendencies that threaten to undermine our representative democracy. ϖ
Lee Hamilton is a Senior Advisor for the Indiana University Center on Representative Government; a Distinguished Scholar, IU School of Global and International Studies; and a Professor of Practice, IU School of Public and Environmental Affairs. He was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives for 34 years.

Speaker Ryan tabs Messer to head task force
"Indiana has proven time and again that the best government is closest to the people it serves. Our states, cities and counties are the true engine for innovation in government. I'm excited to work on this Task Force to combat federal overreach and return power to states."
- U.S. Rep.
Luke Messer
, who was appointed by House Speaker
Paul Ryan
to serve on the recently created bipartisan Task Force on Intergovernmental Affairs, which is charged with working to restore the proper balance of power between federal, state and local governments. The Task Force will partner with state and local governments to determine where the federal government has overstepped, and come up with solutions to return control to states and local entities.
The integrity of Director Coats
Dan Coats
would spurn another attempt by
President Trump
to shut down the Russian collusion probe with his presidential campaign is not surprising. The Director of National Intelligence is known for his integrity. But Coats, along with other intelligence and White House officials, are now in untenable positions in this presidential viper's nest. They are being asked to participate in what now appears to be an unprecedented conspiracy to thwart an investigation, with all the trappings of a developing obstruction of justice scenario. What is emerging are the markers of historic scandal that appears poised to bring down this populist presidency. And it is now ensnarling Hoosier public servants like Coats and

Superb staff and excellent food. A bit pricy but worth it! Recommend the crab stuffed baked potato side dish.
This place is great if you love steak and flavor. Diego makes one of the best steaks you will ever eat and I won't spoil you with the sides and flavorful spices and sauces they give you options to use. You will not need A1 Sauce. The help was also great and very helpful, Lidia who is very beautiful helped... 更多
The food was good, but the service was wonderful. Carlos waited on us two of visits and we really enjoyed meeting him. He was attentive and informative about the restaurant and Costa Rica in general.
Definitely check out this option for dinner; we had a fantastic experience here. The steaks, in particular, were some of the best we have had. Chef Diego does a terrific job.
Food and service was outstanding! Our waiter even went to the ice cream shop on property to get me coconut sorbet for dessert. My husband is a steak man and said everything was great. I was able to order fish (in case there are some of you who are not carnivores. ) I would highly recommend
Try the chef's table. We were able to easily get same day reservations. Food was more than enough, wonderfully cooked, service was perfect. Fun atmosphere.
Of the choices at the JW, this was the best. So I wouldn't say don't go, but I'd say don't set your expectations too high. I ordered the NY strip (that is priced at Ruth's Chris kind of pricing) and what came out was a flat steak - not like a strip. On a blind taste test I would have... 更多

Finally we found a place where meat has a true place in the menu. The variety of meatcuts and appetizers are very well presented and tasty. Miguel Angel knew every single detail on the menu and was very sure when he recommended us what to have. The sides where excellent: sauvage champignons, french fries with truffle oil and parmesan (... 更多
I did not actually come for dinner, but I came in one afternoon to participate in the cooking class. The chef, Diego, was very thorough and created what he called a typical breakfast in Costa Rica, which consisted of beans and rice, cheese, and plantains. The dish was delicious, and the chef was quite professional.
The Sabanero Steakhouse is part of the JW Marriott's Costa Rica's resort. The steakhouse is staffed with exceptionally friendly service ! The meal is accompanied with some unique starting breads & butter and a varierty of "tasting salts" that made the meal memorable. The ala carte sides were not served in traditional American style but very good tasty and quickly... 更多

Urban Design
Since 1945
A Global Perspective
David Grahame Shane
Urban Design Since 1945 - A Global Perspective reviews the emergence of urban design as a global phenomenon. The book opens with the urgent need to rebuild cities and re-house the millions of refugees living in camps and shantytowns at the end of the Second World War. Against this background, the book traces the collapse of the modernist, comprehensive state-planning schemes on both sides of the Iron Curtain as global corporations emerged, concentrating on networks and enclaves. It describes how Latin America and then Asia began a rapid urbanisation process, shifting the global urban centre away from Europe and overturning existing urban design models. This resulted in global megacities of an unprecedented scale, often with large associated shantytowns. By outlining the dominant models in urban design over the last sixty years - the metropolis, the megalopolis, the fragmented metropolis and the global megacity - the book provides an essential framework for students of the subject.

Today's Devotional
Mercy's CallThink about the last time someone offended you.
Top Music Videos
Wednesday February 12
John started his new job. When he got his first check at the end of the month, he wanted to celebrate by buying my lunch for me. During our meal, he told me that his first paycheck was his "firstfruits." With a grateful heart, he wanted to give a significant portion of it back to God.
Moses repeatedly reminded the Jews that God was their Deliverer, the Giver of their land, and the Provider of their material blessings (Deuteronomy 26:1,3,7-10). As God blessed them materially, they were reminded to do four things:
First, they were to return to God "some of the first produce from each crop [they harvested]" (v.2). This gift was their personal act of thanksgiving, acknowledging that God was their Provider (vv.3-4). It was also their public act of worship, as they placed the offering on the altar (v.4), "[bowing] to the ground in worship before Him" (v.10).
Second, they were to tell the story of their redemption. They were nobodies, nomads, and slaves. But God made them into a great nation and gave them a land to call their own, a land of plenty (vv.5-9).
Third, they were to celebrate, rejoice, and enjoy the good things God had given to them (v.11). God wanted them to enjoy it all: "Rejoice . . . because the LORD your God has blessed you" (12:7).
Finally, they were to be generous and share their material blessings with the poor (26:12-13). Knowing their selfish hearts (15:11), Moses reminded them to "remember to include the Levites and the foreigners living among you in the celebration" (26:11).
God has given us plenty of things to enjoy, and to share. We also have a story of redemption to tell—proclaiming who our God is, how great and good, gracious and generous He is. —K.T. Sim
Deuteronomy 26:1-13
And now, O LORD, I have brought you the first portion of the harvest you have given me from the ground (v.10)
Read Deuteronomy 16:10-12 and find out what it means for you to celebrate the Festival of Harvest.
How do you honor God with the firstfruits of your harvest today? What does it mean for you to bring your best to God?

A couple of years ago (2009) I purchased a replacement radiator cooling fan for my wife's '04 Saturn Ion. Go-Parts.com had the cheapest I could find anywhere and I was able to quickly locate it based on the original OEM part number. To have the work done by a shop would have cost me over $800 and taken a couple of days. I purchased the OEM replacement fan from Go-Parts.com for just under $100 and did the work in about an hour. The fan worked perfectly for about 2 years and then it started acting up. I went back to Go-Parts.com and found out the item had a limited lifetime warranty. I contacted customer service about the warranty and started the process without any hassle. I simply purchased a replacement from the website, sent the old broken one back to Go-Parts in the box that the new one came in with pre-paid shipping by Go-Parts and was refunded the purchase price of the replacement fan. In the end, 3 years later I still have a working cooling fan and I've only ever had to pay the original purchase and shipping. The prices are great and the customer service is excellent. I definitely look for parts on Go-Parts.com before looking anywhere else.
Price Quality Average: 4.5 / 5 starsThe estimate on the delivery date was off by one day. That was slightly annoying but that had nothing to do with Go-Parts.by savanke
Price Quality Average: 4 / 5 starsI think Go-Part.com is a life saver. However it would be nice to upgrade shipping to next day, or 2 day shipping for additional fee. I would like to know if they are going to increase the amount of merchandise as well catalog information.by A Kaspar

Cynthia lives in London with her sullen street-sweeper daughter. Her brother has been successful with his photographer's business and now lives nearby in a more upmarket house. But Cynthia hasn't even been invited round there after a year. So, all round, she feels rather lonely and isolated. Meanwhile, in another part of town, Hortense, adopted at birth but now grown up, starts to try and trace her mother.
It has been almost 14 years since the debut album by Shadowman was released ('Land of the Living' ESM098). The album was warmly received by all who had a penchant for good old British melodic hard rock. As you would expect Shadowman had elements of both Heartland and FM deeply embedded in its grooves, yet it was highly original and was often touted as the best British melodic release of 2004.
