With the rubbing strakes fitted the hull can now receive two more coats of epoxy resin.
The resin was mixed to the 30:100 ratio in sufficient quantity to coat the whole hull, and the 90 minute pot life meant that this could be done at a sensible pace. I found it best to apply a thin even coat and not to over-brush the resin, that way there were no runs and the brush did not drag, 'less is more' is always the case. The strakes absorb the resin quite well so they should be harder and more resistant to knocks.
The resin was left to cure and harden for a couple of days before a rub down with a 400 grit wet & dry abrasive on a sanding block.
The weave of the cloth is now fully covered and the resulting surface is remarkably smooth even at this stage.
A third coat of resin builds up the finish layer and when dried resulted in a very pleasing mirror finish and the glassfibre cloth is now completely invisible!
As satisfying as this shiny surface is it must be rubbed down to give a good surface for the primer paint to adhere to. I used a 1200 grit wet & dry paper with plenty of water to flatten and key the surface ready for when the painting process could be started.

The chine strakes are made from 3/16 x 3/16 obechi and also need a very thorough steaming to get them into the correct shape.
As with gunwhale strakes these also need to be bent in two different planes, the first being the curve of the bow and the second is the rise and fall in angles required to follow the line of the chine stringers.
Pre-drilling these strips prior to glueing with epoxy and pinning is very important as the wood is very thin and would very easily split if not done, remembering that the wood is already under stress because of the bending process 😰
Fortunately this also went well without any disasters, and after a bit of filling and rubbing down I'm finally able to apply the last two coats of resin to give the hull it's final surface 😀

Now that the hull has been skinned in fibreglass and given it's first rub down the next process is to fit the rubbing strakes
The gunwhale strakes are made from strips of 3/8 x 3/16 obechi and they need to be bent and formed to follow the curvature of the bow, so it's out with the wallpaper steamer and steaming tube again!
I steamed the strips very thoroughly to get them as flexible as possible because they need to be bent in two planes, the first is the curve of the bow and the second is the change of angle, in effect a 'twist' where the side skin angle changes.
I dry fitted the strakes and clamped them in place to conform to the hull shape and pre-drilled holes for the fixing pins. After the wood cooled and dried it was possible to remove the temporary clamps and pins and happily the strake kept it's shape so that the final epoxy glueing and pinning should not involve stressing the wood to much further degree.
The strakes were fixed with the upper edge slightly proud of the deck so that once planed down they will be flush with the deck.
A little bit of filler was needed to fill the gap between the lower edge of the strake and the hull and in the pin holes left after the pins were punched into the strakes.
I repeated the process for the other side and felt quite pleased and relieved that it went so well, and without anything snapping 😁
Another piece is fitted on the transom and this only has a gentle curve and is a breeze to fit compared to the other parts !
Now onto the Chine rubbing strakes.

As previously mentioned I decided to add a door and frame detail below the centre cabin roof hatch.
I made the door from a bit of 1.5mm scrap ply and 'engraved' the panelling grooves on it's face, I also added a frame leaving narrow gaps to form the hinge lines. Once in place I will add a couple of bits of wire to simulate the butt hinges, some extra door detail and some door furniture.
UPDATE: I have added the door detail, I just need to make a knob or handle to finish it off, I have a fuzzy 'photo showing the door but it isn't clear what type it is.

The rescue net rails are very fiddly to do as each support needs to be drilled accurately so that the rail passes through it nice and straight.
I used scrap ply for these although using some obechi strip may have been easier, for some reason I'm always drawn to doing things the difficult way to get the best results, but that's just in my nature. The blocks were cut from a strip of scrap ply of the correct thickness to all the same height and drilled through. After a quick clean-up with some abrasive paper they were then were glued to the roof skin with epoxy at carefully measured spacings according to the plan, the dowel rod was passed through each as it progressed to be sure that the alignment was correct.
Once the epoxy had set the blocks were sanded to all the same height...... then it's onto the other side and repeat the process.
I needed a tiny bit of filler here and there because the drilling process tends to split the ply face out a little bit despite very careful drilling. That's why obechi strip might have been the better choice.
I will fit the dowel rails in place once it's all fully assembled, rubbed down and sealed.
I'm not too sure if I will attempt to make the rescue nets, finding something ready-made may be difficult but not impossible and I'm certainly not going to take up crochet work at my age !
Anyone fancy making them up for me for a small fee?

I made the engine room roof covers in the same manner as the centre cabin roof but this one is a bit more complex because of the raised roof panels, escape hatches and rescue net rails
Spacers are used between the roof skin and the raised roof skins and it's here that I have made a small error in that I should have trimmed the spacer a little so that when the raised roof panels are fitted a lip is formed. The pre-cut spacers are actually supplied cut slightly too large and need to be trimmed to form this detail. It's only a minor thing and I know it will bug me but to rectify it would mean re-constructing the roof so I'll just put it down to experience 😭
Before I fitted the raised roof skins I added some additional spacers in the areas where the white metal deck fitting would be installed as I intend to bolt these through the skins rather than just rely on glue which won't really be sufficient to hold them securely.
The two hatches also have spacers that are correctly sized so that a lip is formed, at least I got that bit right!
I cut shallow groove in the hatches to simulate the hinge line but I'll fit the hinges later in the painting process.

The centre cabin roof is designed to be removable and to get a good fit the frame is initially constructed in place with some card packing inserted and clamped between the frame, the cabin sides and cabin formers.
I used two layers of 'cornflake box' thickness card for this.
This is to ensure that when sanding sealer and paint has been applied to the surfaces there is a bit of clearance so that the roof can be easily removed, ideally this should be a friction fit but I can use a couple of small magnets to hold it in place if it ends up a bit too loose.
Once the basic frame was made it was removed to the bench and the centre roof former and fillets were fitted and glued.
I then glued and pinned the roof to the frame with about a 1/8th overlap of the cabin sides and then the frame and skin clamped together while the glue set.
Once the clamps were off the roof was tried for fit and although loose at this stage it should be a snug fit when it's all painted
The hatch was made from the pre-cut piece and some 1.5mm ply scrap for the frame, I assembled this on my cutting mat with some brass pins to hold it all together.
I also made some runners for the hatch from scrap ply and obechi strip and glued these to the roof skin, a couple of small slots in the finished hatch locate it on the runners.
I won't fix this hatch in place until it's all painted.
The pins were then punched in just below the roof skin surface and a little filler used to level it and after a light sanding it's ready for sanding sealer. I think I will make a frame and door to fit to the cabin former to add a little more detail.

The power supply that I want to go with the Turnigy charger is out of stock at Hobbyking so as a temporary measure I have decided to convert an old PC power supply for the purpose.
I'm not going into any detail on how this is achieved because unless you have the required skills and knowledge it is best not to mess with power supplies. 💀
A PC power supply actually has a number of different voltage outputs but I'll just be utilising the 12v output.
Two insulated sockets are fitted to the side of the power supply case for the output, and a switch and a couple of led's and current limiting resistors are fitted to the back panel, the existing rocker switch is the main on/off switch and the small toggle switch 'starts' the power supply, the LED's just indicate power on and 12v output present.
For now this unit will be sufficient for my purposes until the unit I want is back in stock at Hobbyking, in the meantime I am now able to charge the NiMH battery packs that have arrived and test the boats electrical system.

Because the fibreglassing process takes a while, there's time to consider other things that need to be done such as the wheelhouse, cabin roofs and hatches, and the electrics.
The electrics are very straightforward and my initial drawings are transformed into a panel that also contains the master power switch, fuse holder and a charging socket.
All the wiring is in 12awg silicone insulated wire and all connections are soldered and insulated with heat shrink.
Initially I used large Futaba connectors but having assembled and tested the loom I'm not very confident of the current handling of these so I replaced them all with XT60 connector that are rated at 65A.
I'll leave the Futaba charging connector in the switch panel as this doesn't need to be uprated.
The master switch is a high current DPDT, centre off type that in one position connect the battery supply to the ESC and motor via the fuse and in the other position to the charging socket.
Although the ESC has a BEC I will supply the receiver and lighting circuits from separate battery supplies, mustn't forget to remove the power wire from the ESC servo connector!
I have incorporated an in-line ammeter in the loom that should monitor and log peak amps and volts, it's only rated at 30A and I'm not sure that it's up to the job, if not I know that 'Component-shop' do something similar that will meter up to 150A for about £18 or so.
I have chosen a Turnigy charger from Hobbyking that will accommodate the 16 cell NiMh (19.2v) series battery system so that the charging can be done with the batteries in situ, the charger has a 12v DC input so this can done at the lakeside from a car battery if required, but it has no AC input. It will also handle LiPO batteries if I decide to switch chemistry !.
That means that I'll need a meaty DC power supply to run the charger on the bench and I have just the thing for the job.....

The fibreglassing process is turning out to be a great deal easier than I anticipated, the cloth weave allows it to conform to the hull shape without any creasing, and the resin brushes on very easily and has no unpleasant smell at all.
I had read other build blogs where the resin was described as having an unpleasant smell and was difficult to work with, perhaps that's because this is epoxy rather than polyester?
In retrospect I could have ordered an alternative resin kit from the supplier where two bottles of hardener are supplied, one slow (95 min pot life) and one fast (17min pot life), because as my confidence increased I could probably do an application with the fast hardener in the shorter time and thus curing time would also be correspondingly quicker.
The transom is the last face to do and once that had cured I could then give the complete hull it's first rub down before I shape and fix the gunwhale and the chine rubbing strakes.
Once these are on I can apply the two further resin coats to get the final finish.

text: Hello everyone. I am just wondering (maybe there is a completely valid reason for this, in which case I do apologise!) why Andrea and Merle are still on the front page with the others? If they are dead, I dont see why they should be there. In my opinion, they should be replaced with Tyreese and Sasha.

I had the same thing happen with a pack of photo corners I bought from a discount store. They too were not taken apart properly. What is more is the clerk gave me what I knew was too cheap a price on them because she couldn't find the UPC to ring them up properly. This was after I had already indicated that the price in the location had been such and such and not the price she was ringing them up at. So, when I got home and discovered that I had multiple packs of them bound together I felt a little guilty. But I figured that at the time I had tried to be as honest as I could be and calling back about them would probably be more trouble than it was worth.
Of course I am also the type who will let myself be double charged for things or put up with faulty products without complaint... many times anyway. As has been said here already, I figure it averages out. And it isn't the same thing as intentionally walking away with something you knew you were paying too little for. Of course if you absolutely can't live with the guilt, there is always the phone... you can call them and tell them what happened and try to set it right.

Britons Abandon 'Cold' Quest
By WILLIAM J. BROAD
Published: June 20, 1989
IN yet another blow to hopes for cold fusion, Harwell Laboratory, one of the British Government's top science centers, announced last week that it was ending attempts to duplicate the disputed experiment after three months of repeated failures.
''Results to date have been disappointing and we can no longer justify devoting further resources in this area,'' Ron Bullough, chief scientist of Britain's Atomic Energy Authority, which operates Harwell, said in a statement.
The abandonment is seen as significant since one of the two scientists who claimed to have discovered a process for cold fusion, Martin Fleischmann of Southampton University in England, had worked closely with Harwell to set up the experiment, raising hopes that it might succeed.
At Dr. Fleischmann's request, Harwell began trying to duplicate the experiment in mid-March, even before the March 23 announcement by Dr. Fleischmann and B. Stanley Pons of the University of Utah that they had achieved cold fusion in a simple experiment. Ten Harwell scientists worked on it full time, and more than 100 others participated part time, said David Williams, a Harwell electrochemist who led the effort. In all, Harwell spent nearly a half million dollars on the work.
''We tried pretty hard,'' Dr. Williams said. The Harwell scientists, he said, tried eight different types of palladium metal, in which the fusion was said to occur. And they searched, to no avail, for fusion byproducts with a bevy of sensitive detectors.
''We failed to find neutrons and we failed to find excess heat,'' said Dr. Williams.
Dr. Williams said he had a visiting professorship at Southampton, knew Dr. Fleischmann well, and had ''worked with him a lot.'' He said, however, that the cold fusion episode was a story of science gone awry.
''When brilliant people have mad ideas it can come down on them like a ton of bricks,'' he said at a news conference last week. ''What's happened here is that a brilliant man has a mad idea.''

A manic procession of surreal events, involving a charwoman who cleans a field with a scrubbing brush, a man who runs around a tree stump to play a phonograph record and a violinist who reads his score by telescope and has to mount a bicycle to turn the pages on his music stand.
Richard Lester had the happy knack of impressing important people. He began his career in live television in the United States, which he later claimed was the finest school ever invented for surrealism, as freak incidents like the appearance of a gaggle of periwigged 18th-century characters within a Nazi POW camp were always likely to happen.
Indeed, it was exactly this brand of eccentricity that Lester sought to bring to British television in 1956. Aping the crackpot comedy patented by The Goons, The Dick Lester Show was a largely ad-libbed affair that proved to be a spectacular failure. However, it so amused Peter Sellers that he invited Lester to direct a string of Goon spin-offs - A Show Called Fred, Idiot's Weekly and Son of Fred (all 1956) - that also convinced Spike Milligan that Lester was on their comic wavelength.
In between his Goon assignments, Lester began directing commercials, which not only taught him visual economy, but also gave him plenty of latitude for experimentation. And it was this preoccupation with the madcap, the avant-garde and the precise that manifested itself in this 11 minutes of mayhem.
Shot over two Sundays with Sellers's 16mm Bolex camera for just £70 (a fiver of which went on the hire of the field), The Running, Jumping and Standing Still Film was a homage to both classic slapstick clowning and the silent Impressionism that René Clair and Luis Buñuel had attempted in the late 1920s.
Sellers, Milligan, Leo McKern, David Lodge, Graham Stark and Mario Fabrizi threw themselves into a project (often literally) that was initially only devised as a kind of wacky home movie. However, it wound up landing an Oscar nomination and so impressing The Beatles that they insisted on Lester directing A Hard Day's Night (1964), whose `Can't Buy Me Love' sequence reprised the delirious exuberance of this midget gem.
Sublime slapstick surrealism from Richard Lester and two Goons.

Having already tried and tested Leves, the battle system etc. I decided I would save pointlessly hitting the cap for a 3rd time and go explore instead.
All I can say is...Wow.
Now **** knows what these zones were called, but they were quite jaw-dropping. All the zones spread so far and I don't think I've ever felt such a huge inspiration to explore a game like this before. You look at the map and you think, Whoa - the next zone is miles away, and yet the thought of what that zone could be just drags in you in so badly.
I'll admit for obvious reasons I wasn't quite sure if I should pre-order the game, but I am sold. Sold. Sold. Sold.
Anyways, heres some screenshots, I will update with some more as I manage to head to more zones. Obviously feel free to add your own.

We're Felix and Philip, and as the founders of EatAbout we're here to bring you closer to your food than ever before!
We're democratizing eating out and empowering chefs to host guests in their home, with the aim to make good food accessible to everyone. We tackle the disconnect between you and your chef, helping you eat fresher food and interact directly with your chefs in their home – the most immersive and comfortable setting of all to enjoy a private meal in.
Our motivation is personal – we've been around the world and tried every type of food imaginable, and we feel that traditional restaurants so often fail to capture the air of authenticity that comes with trying new cuisines, particularly due to the rising presence of impersonal food chains.
Philip comes from a Swedish foodie family and grew up in Brazil with a hearty passion for cooking – one could even say that it's in his blood, given that his grandfather pioneered the egg-product industry in Scandinavia.
He combines his love for food with a passion for tech, as he started taking computers apart at age 8 and has used much of that knowledge as well as lessons learned while working at Google, Spotify, and Cloud 66 to build the tech behind EatAbout.
In a similar vein, Felix hails from the southern coast of Sweden, where he spent his summers learning how to fish and cook fresh seafood - skills he would master even further as a chef at theatre kitchens preparing gala dinners for over 200 people.
Felix is a people person who takes pride in bringing people together, whether it be hosting dinners or organising trips around the world. His love of cooking and his interest in people is moulded together to run the operations behind EatAbout.
Having met in French class in Belgium in 2006, starting a company together was always an ambition of ours, but those plans didn't materialize until the summer of 2015 when Philip went horseback riding through the plains of Mongolia and was hosted in the homes of local nomads - an experience that served as a catalyst for both of us to quit our jobs shortly thereafter to start EatAbout and hand out flyers on the street to find our first customers.
Since starting EatAbout our hunger to bring new incredible meals to your plate just keeps growing, so hop onboard and see what your next EatAbout meal has in store!

Aker Solutions won its first order for a project offshore Mexico as it secured a contract from Saipem to supply umbilicals for the Pemex-operated Lakach deepwater natural-gas field.
Aker Solutions will deliver electro-hydraulic steel tube umbilicals of about 73 kilometers (45 miles) that will help connect Mexico's first subsea gas development to onshore processing facilities. The field is located about 98 kilometres (60 miles) southeast of Veracruz at depths of between 900 and 1,200 meters in the Gulf of Mexico. It is targeted to supply 400 million standard cubic feet per day.
'The Lakach field is Mexico's first deepwater subsea development by Pemex and Aker Solutions is proud to deliver the first umbilical to the Mexican Gulf of Mexico,' said Marc Quenneville, head of Aker Solutions' subsea business in North America.
The umbilicals will be manufactured in Mobile, Alabama, and the order will be completed in the third quarter of 2016. Aker Solutions is the market leader in subsea umbilicals, which are used to supply necessary controls and chemicals to subsea oil and gas wells, manifolds and systems requiring remote control.
The partners have chosen not to disclose the contract value.

Free agency officially begins Tuesday, so the AFC North blog is counting down the 20 best free agents (unrestricted and restricted) from the teams in the division. Let's continue with No. 6 ...
Ravens linebacker
Status: Unrestricted free agent
The good: Ellerbe was the Ravens' best defensive player by the end of the team's Super Bowl run. This season, he finished second on the team in tackles (89) and sacks (4.5). Ellerbe is athletic and aggressive who is just hitting his stride as an every-down player.
The bad: His attitude and work ethic have been a problem at times. He has been known to be late for meetings and practices. This is why the talented Ellerbe has only started 14 games in four years. There's also durability concerns with Ellerbe, who always seems to be battling injuries.
The bottom line: It's hard not to notice Ellerbe when you put on the tape. He'll be in demand in free agency, especially with the likes of the Browns and Bills needing impact inside linebackers for their new 3-4 defenses. The Ravens won't let him go easily. With the retirement of Ray Lewis and the injury status of Jameel McClain (spinal cord contusion), Ellerbe should be Baltimore's priority this offseason.

In an interview over at Slashdot, J. Allen Brack, Lead Producer of WoW, spoke about the Battle.net conversion that's going on and how it will apply to WoW. One of the more important things he said was:
We have optional Battle.net conversion right now, but that will be mandatory at some point in the not-too-distant future.Many people have done the conversion already, and many speculated and inferred from past Blizzard comments that the conversion would eventually become mandatory. But now it looks like it's going to be, and that date is in the "not-too-distant future."
The conversion process is relatively straight forward, and can be started by visiting your account management page. There have been times when Battle.net enabled accounts were not able to get into the game due to authentication issues, but those seem to be diminishing.
We'll be sure to keep you updated on any additional announcements concerning the upcoming mandatory conversion

The Gelatitan is a mark in Final Fantasy XIII. It is the first of six marks that must be defeated within Taejin's Tower to ascend to the top. The Menhirrim that gives out the mission (Mission 21) is located on the tower's Second Tier.
A group of Gelatitans are later fought in Mission 60, as part of the Cie'th Stone circle grouping that, once every mission in the circle has been completed, will unleash Shaolong Gui and Long Gui on the Archylte Steppe.
As they are weak against Lightning damage, a group of Ravagers can bring them down quickly.
Its name refers to gelatin, a translucent, colourless, brittle (when dry), flavourless foodstuff derived from collagen obtained from various animal by-products. It is commonly used as a gelling agent in food, pharmaceuticals, photography, and cosmetic manufacturing. It is found in most gummy candy as well as other products such as marshmallows, gelatin dessert, and some ice cream, dip and yogurt.
It is named as such as Flan type enemies' names refer to desserts. The name may also be a portmanteau with the word "titan" referring to its size.

93-year-old left on hospital trolley for 20 hours is offered apology
A 93-year-old woman has been offered an apology by a Dublin hospital after she was forced to spend 20 hours on a trolley last month.
The board of St James's Hospital apologised to Margaret Fagan, who became ill on January 24 and had to wait for nine hours for the out-of-hours Dubdoc service run by St James's to arrive at her home near Pimlico.
She then spent another 20 hours on the trolley at the hospital.
According to the Irish Times, Margaret's daughter, Rita Fagan revealed had been a meeting with the hospital's head of nursing who apologised to Margaret and her family.
The move came after a meeting of the board of management at St James's Hospital, which was said to be "concerned" at reports on patient welfare.

August 1, 2013 – New York – AJC saluted the U.S. House of Representatives for overwhelmingly passing a bold measure tightening sanctions against Iran. The Nuclear Iran Prevention Act, which passed by a vote of 400 to 20, would, if fully enforced, severely curtail what is left of Iran's ability to export oil.
"The U.S. House of Representatives has sent a clear message that implementing ever-tightening sanctions will continue until Tehran comes clean on its nuclear program, and honors the numerous international calls for it to desist from pursuing nuclear weapons capability," said AJC Executive Director David Harris. "While some remain hopeful that incoming president Hassan Rouhani will alter Iran's course, we urge the Senate to move expeditiously after the recess and adopt the measure in September and for President Obama to sign it into law."
The bill, if enacted, would lead to a further reduction of Iran's oil exports by another one million barrels a day. Previous U.S. and EU sanctions have already severely cut Iran's oil exports. Importantly, the new legislation also threatens to impose heavy penalties on current Iranian customers if they do not find alternative suppliers.
In addition, the bill would further limit Iran's already diminished ability to access money in overseas accounts, and penalize countries doing business with Iran's automotive, mining, construction and engineering industries.
AJC has long advocated for ever-tightening economic and political sanctions by the U.S., EU and other countries concerned by the grave threat to regional and global security that an Iran with nuclear-weapons capability would present. To date, Iran has ignored UN Security Council and International Atomic Energy Agency measures.
"There is no doubt that maximum pressure by the international community on Iran continues to be necessary, and once again the U.S. Congress is demonstrating admirable leadership," said Harris.
AJC's mission is to enhance the well-being of the Jewish people and Israel, and to advance human rights and democratic values in the United States and around the world.

According to a news release issued Tuesday, the Island Def Jam Music Group "will cease to exist" as it is. Reportedly, Def Jam (home to Rihanna and Kanye West), Island (Bon Jovi, Justin Bieber) and Motown, will become separate entities, with some changes in their leadership and operations.
According to The New York Times, since its creation in the late '90s, Universal has been organized in separate divisions that each include several record labels. Among these are Interscope, Geffen, A&M, Republic, and the Capitol Music Group, which are homes for labels such as Capitol and Virgin, which Universal acquired in 2011.
Lucian Grainge, the chairman of Universal, acknowledged in a note to employees that Island Def Jam no longer functioned as well as it once did.

I'm Eating What?! Orange Blossom Water

Perhaps one of the most creative book to film adaptations ever, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, managed to stay incredibly faithful to the original stories, but also managed to be self-referential. This is similar to the book itself that made no effort to hide the fact that it was merely a collection of imaginary stories that the author told his child. Disney manages this by having one character, which is not in the book, actually say: "I'm not in the book!" Also, the omniscient narrator becomes involved in the action and even reveals the fact that the action is taking place, literally, in the illustrations of a book! Genius.

Lean Missions
NonModern is not a fan of treating Church and ministry as a business, but there are business principles that can help inform the way ministry is done.
BBC did a story today on how "Lean Manufacturing" has infiltrated and hurt the service industry. Lean Manufacturing is basically a concept Toyota came up with trying to rid itself of any waste in production, and in so doing, reduce costs. In the service industry, such as in sales, it has meant firing full-time employees and instead using cheap, inexperienced, untrained employees only during times of peak business. In so doing, the service industry has lost expertise, customer service, and customer loyalty.
Think for a minute about the trends one sees in missions today. There is a real shift away from career personnel towards short term or volunteer people. The idea is: All Christians should witness. Missions is basically witnessing. Why invest in getting people to spend their entire careers on the field when it is easier and cheaper to use short-term personnel?
It is true that there are tremendous benefits to having ever more Christians experience cross-cultural evangelization first hand, and short timers are needed. However, abandoning the expertise and cultural investment of career missionaries is done at a tremendous cost. Evangelization success is directly proportional to cultural closeness. That is to say, people respond most to the Gospel that is presented in their own context. Missions requires more than just some canned presentation of the Gospel. Missions involves incarnational witnessing.How much language learning and cultural adaptation is a person willing to do, if they are only going to live in a culture for two years? The fact is two years is only enough scratch the surface of most cultures. By the time short-timers are leaving they are often really just getting started.

Acts: Persecution (12:1-5)
It is time lead the church out of the cultural ghetto it has built for itself. We need to be incarnational, not monastic. We need a faith to confront and change the world, not to insulate and bless ourselves.

The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe
The Chronicles of Narnia have become one of those things that everyone thinks they know, but few really do. Far more than just those "kids books about the closet and the lion," they are perhaps some of the best books ever written. Just because they are simple enough that children can enjoy them, does not make them children's books. They are far too layered to be fully grasped as a child, and for full enjoyment they really need to be read at every stage of life.
The initial appeal is on a childlike level. What child doesn't wish that their imaginings and make-believe could become reality? And to think that some magical land lies hidden just out of sight… One of the most magical moments in literature is when Lucy first finds her way into Narnia by crawling ever deeper into the back of the wardrobe. Once there, Narnia delivers everything a child could hope for: snowy forests, talking animals, danger, intrigue, and scary bad guys.
For the adult, Lewis interjects a lot of wisdom and "that is so true!" moments. Tolkien always said that the chief problem with Lewis' fiction was that it was too obviously allegorical. On the contrary, part of the joy of reading Lewis is to catch glimpses of his brilliance. His allegory was not concerning with a simplified Gospel message, but rather about deep issues regarding philosophy, reality, and the Christian walk. He was truly one of the great Christian thinkers. Sadly, few people today really practice the discipline of simply thinking.It is a sad statement for art in the Christian community today that brilliant writers are condemned for not writing Christian enough, and hack writers are rewarded for churning out pulp or romantic fiction that has simply been "baptized."

Top Films: "I'm the son of a sea cook!"
Arsenic and Old Lace is Frank Capra's least preachy film, and perhaps one of his better ones for it. He actually chose the film to get away from the more message heavy films he was known for. In the process he made what might be one of the earliest dark comedy films ever.

Well, As Long As You Feel Good About Yourself
Well, 2007 marked the greatest temperature change for the planet since instrument readings have been taken. The only problem is, the temperature dropped. Combine that with the fact that sunspot activity is way down, and we now have a scientist saying that "Global Warming" may be over and we should get ready for anther ice age.
This scientific soothsayer is probably no more right than the Al Gores of the world, but the point is: How much effort should politicians put into making people jump through hoops all in the name of climate change, when the sun counteracts any attempts we make to affect the climate? It is kind of like the old story about the fly on the ox's back complaining about all the hard work they are doing.
A lot of people like to think that their lives and the decisions they make have a huge impact on the world. In some cases, like relationships and societies, an individual can make a difference, but when knee-jerk and power hungry political leaders coordinate societies behavior, all they end up affecting is people's lives.
The latest fiasco is the reallocation of huge amounts of grains from food supplies to bio-fuel production. Many scientists are still raising questions about whether "bio-fuels" actually do less damage. Meanwhile the cost of basic nutrition has drastically increased. Starvation is killing 25,000 people a day. What is more important: competing with a ball of fire 1,300,00 times bigger than the earth for the number one spot on the climate affecting factors, or feeding the poorest people on the planet?The fact is, for a lot of climate change zealots, 25,000 deaths a day is a step in the right direction since over population is one of the biggest problems they see about humanity.

Canis lupus familiaris
Arguments could be made for all of the above, but the fact is that some people are meant to be parents and some really should consider sterilization. Some people have a knack for growing things, and some people can't keep weeds alive. Cats are great to look at, and earning their love can be rewarding if they don't make your eyes swell shut. However…
Buying a dog is something everyone should do at some point.
There really is a dog for everyone. Just think about it. What other species on the planet can produce Irish Wolfhounds (giant, hairy beasts over 3 feet tall) and Chihuahuas (glorified rats)? What other animal is capable of baiting bulls, or being carried around in a purse?
Yes, there are the bad sides to dog-ownership. They have to be trained. They have "accidents." They like to chew. The have a whole obsession with each other's butts. They love to get dirty. They like to explore garbage. The big ones can be scary and the little ones can be broken. But there are good things too.
You are their favorite person in the world. They don't talk. They can be taught to help. They reduce the need to sweep the kitchen floor. They break down barriers with strangers. They can make you feel safer. They are good for your health. They -reduce stress. And the unconditionally love, no, they worship you.

Acts: Antioch (11:19-26)
In some ways Christianity had its birth in Antioch. The model for success in future expansions of the faith was discovered there. Christianity is a faith that works in all cultures because it is beyond culture. It thrives in large urban settings and expands from there to the surrounding regions. Somewhere along the line the idea has been abandoned. In some people's view it is the faith of small towns and country churches and has no place in large, influential, multicultural cities. That is just not Biblical.

Television: 24
For those living under a rock, 24 is a program about preventing terrorism. It is presented in real time. During the course of a season the viewer witnesses a day in the life of Jack Bauer.
The show is an action-thriller, and Jack is really more of a super hero than a human being, but the issues and topics addressed are relevant ones; things that people and governments actually struggle with. How should terrorist threats be treated? How much power should law enforcement have? What are acceptable methods of integrating suspects? How much life and freedom can be sacrificed to safeguard the greater good?
The show does a good job of showing some hard realities. Is there anyone anymore who would cooperate with terrorists hoping to be spared? Bad guys will kill you anyway once they get what they want—so don't cooperate. Torture is another topic that the show treats pretty well. For the most part it is ineffective, and as a regular sanctioned tactic it should be out of the question. It only seems to work for Jack, and then only occasionally. There are a couple characters that seem a little overeager to use it.
One of the best dramatic elements of the show is the in office politics/ back stabbing that goes on at the Counter Terrorism Unit. The viewer can always count on at least one mole in the system, and even characters that are not evil tend to let power plays get in the way of getting the job done.The great lessons of 24: there are evil people in the world that must be opposed, and the rest of us, while not evil, are flawed. The great questions: when do these people eat or go to the can?

Why Do Theology?
Not all Christians who are pursuing God may realize they are "doing" theology. That is to say they may not set out to deliberately study God in an academic fashion. This is not necessary. The simple act of exploring faith, dwelling in God's revelation, or getting to know God better through His revelation is doing theology.
Theology is the language the Church uses to communicate within the body. The dialogue theology provides allows the Church to change as the times demand without losing the essentials of Church life. This dialogue within the Church is a vehicle the Holy Spirit uses to work in and through the Church.
Ultimately, theology is necessary to fulfill God's most basic command to Christians. In order to share faith with others, Christians must have first processed what has happened in their lives into words. This is theology in its most basic form. The more Christians do theology the more effective witness will be to a greater amount of people.

I need words...
"In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God." –Romans 8:26,27
We live in a fallen world that is far from the way it should be. All creation groans as it waits to be made whole again. We groan too, as we wait for the day when we shall be with God again in a place where we were meant to be. In the meantime, we wait, and as we wait we pray. Often the suffering and pain we witness and experience in this world is too much for us, and the words fail us. How should we pray? What is God's will for this situation? What should we ask for? What words will suffice to help a given situation?
We can rest in the fact that the Spirit of God Himself is with us and prays for us in our insufficiency. He takes the words, and silences, and molds the prayers we need to utter. It is not just the intersession we offer for others though. He prays for us. We suffer in a waiting room now, but we a safe in knowing the future that awaits us. As God Himself prays for us, and circumstances in our world are molded for our good, we know nothing can take us away from Him."Let us not grow weary in doing good." Let us not cease to pray because we lack the words or wisdom to know how to pray. God desires our prayers and the work of prayer is not dependant on us. Remain faithful in doing that which God desires, rest in the knowledge that God will bring the results that He desires.

"I will pray with the spirit and I will pray with the mind also; I will sing with the spirit and I will sing with the mind also." –1 Corinthians 14:15
Many people today consider themselves "spiritual" but don't like to make a choice as to which religion they agree with. They don't want to get into "all that theology." They would say that it is not so important what you believe, but rather how sincerely you believe it.
The truth is that faith, and other spiritual matters like worship and prayer, are not just matters of the spirit, but of the mind as well. It is very important to know what you believe and why your believe it. Quite simply, in this world there are things that are true, and there are beliefs that are not true. Sincerity does not a truth make.
This is why Theology is so important. Jesus once said that true worshipers were those that worshiped in "spirit and in truth." To worship in truth, we must pay attention to what we do. When we sing, are the words true? When we pray, are we praying in accordance with what we know to be God's will? Do we regularly read and study the truth of God's word?
C. S. Lewis said that the Christian Faith is like a giant ocean of knowledge and experience. Are we content to simply float about aimlessly in it, never going anywhere and never growing in our understanding? Or would it not be better to spend our lives exploring as much as we can of it, getting to know all we can of God's love and His plan for our lives?Let your relationship with God be spiritual, for He is spirit, but be a thinking Christian as well, for He is the God of truth.

Acts: Peter's Vision, Yes Another One (10:9-11:18)
After seeing that vision, you are asked to move to a culture where the language is harsh and the vocabulary is coarse, even among people who believe. Would you go in sharing the Gospel of God's grace and let the Spirit change people's lives? Or would you go in preaching the gospel of evangelical legalism and let those people know there is a special place in hell reserved for people who don't use acceptable euphemisms like poop or number two?

Television: Serious Thinkage
J.R.R. Tolkien sat down one night and wrote, "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit," and a whole genre was born. On a four-hour train delay, J.K. Rowling suddenly envisioned a boy in a wizard's school, and publishing history was made. Joss Whedon took a well-known horror story cliché and turned it on its head. What if a little blonde girl walked into a dark alley at night and ended up killing the monster that attacked her?
Buffy the Vampire Slayer is one of the best examples in the history of television of using a "genre show" to address serous issues ranging from politics to philosophy and theology. It has become a popular show in the academic world, used for studying everything from sociology to language. It was truly one of the best-written shows on television.
There are a lot of issues that many will find objectionable to be sure, so viewer discretion is advised. That being said, episodes range from comic genius to disturbingly scary to both at the same time. The true value of the series lies in the thought provoking episodes. Early in the second season Buffy revealed its decidedly moral take on life. In a two-part episode, Buffy decides she loves her boyfriend enough to lose her virginity and all hell breaks loose, literally, for the rest of the season. In the Buffy universe, decisions have serious consequences that sometimes haunt the characters for the rest of the series.This is not a Christian show, and it takes stands on some issues that are decidedly non-Christian. It is, however, a serious and searching show and as such is helpful for understanding and engaging today's culture when it come to important and sometimes touchy topics.

Top Films: What Defines A Man?
A boy's parents are shot dead right before his eyes. He grows up seeking revenge but calling it justice. He travels the world preparing to fight crime and destroy the wicked. Failing in his initial attempts, he learns that fear is his most powerful weapon and assumes the character of Batman.
Nolan's Batman Begins joins other recent comic book adaptations showing a "realistic" take on the superhero story. Of course, Batman is the most suitable of all superheroes to attempt this with, as he has no fantastic powers— just cunning, discipline, and unlimited resources.
There are two things to attract people to this story seventy years after it was created. The idea of taking on bad guys and making things right is one appealing aspect. The other has to be the money. Having so much money does not bring happiness, but using it to create the ultimate secret hide out and all those gadgets has got to help.
This is where Batman Begins really delivers. We see the elaborate way in which Bruce Wayne creates Batman, and it is absolutely believable. Well, absolutely plausible anyway. His personal journey to becoming Batman is good too. Bruce starts out a boy who lost his parents before he could learn what it means to be a man. He ultimately learns that we are not defined by the good things we think about ourselves, but by our actions. That is a lesson society needs to hear in the post Bill Clinton world.

Television: X Marks the Spot
The philosophy-on-film craze of the late nineties had its beginning earlier in the decade with the airing of a strange new show called The X-Files. TV has never been the same since. It brought sci-fi and horror into the mainstream. It created a whole "supernatural" wave in television that continues to this day. It had the courage to blend humor with horror. It paved the way for shows like CSI to show those gut-wrenching autopsy scenes. All that, and it blended the normal "stand alone" episodic drama with an ongoing series "mythology." So many series do this today that it has almost become the standard practice.
But the real genius behind the show's success and effectiveness lies in the main characters: Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. He is the faith; she is the reason. Their approach to investigation is a reflection of the show itself. It presents the supernatural as something real, and demonstrable up to a point, but it never allows the mysteries to be fully explained. To cloud the issue even more, Mulder is the atheist, and Scully the questioning Catholic who in spite of it all keeps her faith in God.
The best episodes are too many to list, but a couple deserve special mention in that they deal with epistemology from a postmodern perspective. Jose Chung's From Outer Space is a tour-de-force, presenting a story from multiple perspectives. In the end no one, not even the viewer, knows what really happened. In Bad Blood, Mulder and Scully give their own conflicting reports of an incident in a small Texas town involving vampires.The episodes that don't quite work make you think, but the ones that do… are some of the best television ever made. The scary ones are terrifying, the comedies are laugh-out-loud funny, and some manage to be both.

The only thing that could make a trip to Berlin better would be if there were some difficulty or danger in crossing from West to East Berlin. The wall is gone, but sections remain as a memorial and other famous landmarks are exciting to see in person: Checkpoint Charlie, the Brandenburg Gate, and Alexanderplatz.


text: ATCHISON, Kan., July 26, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MGP Ingredients, Inc. (Nasdaq:MGPI) (the "Company") today announced that Judge Robert J. Bednar of the Atchison County District Court ordered that the Company's previously adjourned May 23, 2013 Annual Meeting be recommenced on or before August 26, 2013 and separately, that stockholder tabulation data be provided for inspection immediately. John R. Speirs, Chairman of MGP, commented, "While we look forward to recommencing the Annual Meeting, it is unfortunate stockholders may now be deprived of the ability to have complete information regarding the validity of the Voting Trust controlled by members of the Cray Group before that meeting takes place. In addition, we find it troubling that the Cray Group has access to the identity and voting result of each vote cast prior to the adjournment of the Annual Meeting which we view as directly in conflict with their proposal seeking confidential voting." Speirs continued, "As Independent Directors, we are committed to ensuring that all stockholders have the ability to participate in a fair process and express their views regarding the future of MGP. We will continue to communicate with stockholders regarding the importance of supporting MGP's Independent Directors and management team in maintaining a strong and vibrant MGP. We urge stockholders to support MGP's continued progress as a public company focused on the interests of all stockholders by voting the WHITE proxy card." The Company will provide notice in the future as to the time and place of a recommencement of the Annual Meeting. Voting remains open by telephone, the Internet or mail prior to the Annual Meeting of stockholders. Stockholders who have already voted need not submit another vote unless they wish to change their votes. See the information in the Company's proxy statement regarding voting procedures. The Company's proxy statement and annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, are available at the following website that can be accessed anonymously: www.proxyvote.com .

- Chivas USA based on Los Angeles Kings
- LA Galaxy based on Los Angeles Kings
- San Jose Earthquakes based on San Jose Sharks
- FC Dallas based on Dallas Stars

text: I know it's a bit off topic but I'm due to start a new job next week and will have to commute from just south of Birmingham to Northampton. My options are M42 North onto M6 then down M6 to M1 and off at junction 15. Alternatively I could go M42 south onto M40, come off at Warwick, then go across A445, A45, M45 onto the M1 to junction 15. Both are around 60-65 miles and around 1 hour (on a clear run) which I'm expecting to be more like at least an hour and a half with traffic. I suppose the answer is to try both over a few weeks and see which comes out best but I just wondered if anyone had any experience of these roads in the rush hours as to which is likely to be the best bet as I guess both will be a crawl in places but I can't see a decent alternative unless I save up and buy a helecopter! Thanks, Stu

With Turkey, Iran and Argentina entering the war on Germany's side, things began to heat up in the Black Sea region. A pre-emptive strike was required on the Red Navy dockyards at Sochi and the Luftwaffe sent several dive bombers and fighter from Turkey to do the mission. Chechen volunteers also attacked the Soviet troops stationed to the north of Grozny, but soon lost heart and gave in. There were heavy losses on all sides ai Sochi due to heavy Soviet ant-aircraft fire and skilful German dive-bombing, but the dockyards were destroyed. This gave Turkey a breathing space and helped divert Soviet forces from the on-going occupation of Iran.
Causes of the conflict
A pre-emptive strike was required on the Red Navy dockyards at Sochi.
Turkey and Iran were persuaded to join in due to both the fear of communism and the promise of liberating Ingushetia, Dagestan and Chechnya from Soviet rule. Sultan Abdul Majid issued a fatwa of Jihad in the Caucaus from the Muslim scholars, making it obligatory for all Muslims to participate in liberating the region from Soviet-athestic rule.
A German and Turkish victory, the Turks created a Caucaus Emirate under "Emir Ibn Ahmad". It was to be ruled like a Turkish province, and was the new frontier for both Turkey and Iran against the Soviet Union.
Political outcome
Turkey and Iran were emboldened and stayed on the German's side. Iran and Turkey were now both ready to begin a drive to British India with German forces. It also began the phase for Chechen volunteers to enter the war, fighting strictly on the side of the Turkish Muslim Empire.

Do You Think Billy Is A True Hero?
There is a person you probably know, who's blog is the most popular so far. I am actually respectful enough not to say his or her name. This person is making alot of people angry, because this person thinks that Billy (Before He Was Possessed) is not a True Hero. I believe he is a True Hero to his land, like Finn. Just because he is dead, it does not mean he is not a hero. It is almost like saying dead soldiers are not True Heroes. Did they not just die for our freedom? Are you kidding me? I am just comparing the obvious facts. I mean the Art of War is written in blood. Who's blood? The soldiers who died for our freedom. Yeah, their blood. Billy saved citizens, destroyed any evil, etc. He died of old age. He, then, got possessed by the Lich. I want to hear your voice. Tell me what you believe!

today i'm in the HR office helping a new lady with a login issue. i've known her a while now and she knows that i tend to say things like "let me drive for a second" meaning i want her to move so i can control whats going on. today she intended on saying "do you want to drive?" but what she said was "do you want to ride?". I've never laughed so hard nor seen someone turn so red before.

I once went to a "Sexual harassment" class taught by our HR department, the first thing that was done was to single me out and explain that the class WAS NOT to teach proper "Sexual harassment" techniques.
It was a smallish company, and I was normally greeted with a hug from every female I went to see.
I guess I couldn't help it, coming from a very hug friendly family.

Yeah, I work with my Wife and live in constant fear of saying of her saying something off hand without thinking about what she is saying. I am just waiting for that awkward break room moment where she says something that sounds bad with someone else in the room. I have done it a couple times, but every time has just been the 2 of us.

Sexual harassment seems to be running rampant in HR these days.
Once while I was fixing a printer (big mistake already, I know) one of the HR directors came up I guess out of curiosity to see what I was doing. On the tail of my shirt is embroidery that has the brand name. What happened next lead me to wonder whether she was reaching for the embroidery to get a better look, trying to remove a smudge on my shirt, or reaching for my butt to cop a feel because in the middle of her motion I turned around and noticed her hand was goin for my badonk.
She instantly flipped out and scurried off :P This may be the reason HR has been letting me wear jeans to work, haha.
May 7, 2012 at 5:09 UTC
Actually what I find funniest is the fact that HR has trained themselves never to comment on anyone's appearance. When I used to work at Intuit, I knew that they noticed the fact that I shaved off my goatee, and could watch their brains as they stifled the urge to comment on it.
May 7, 2012 at 5:18 UTC
I did a trip with our new HR team to our west coast site right after they both started. What I learned is that HR is the only department who can even come close to competing with IT for crazy stories.
