I was traveling on a bus in New York City from uptown - down to my office on 44th between Broadway & 8th. I observed a woman who was taking care of her two daughters. They were probably in their late 30's -- they were twins and they were mentally and physically challenged. I observed the way this mom was watching them and also thinking about the sacrifices this woman must make, along with the rest of her family in order to provide care for her children -- not knowing if she has others as well. I thought about how these kids are pretty much dependent on her and their Dad, in order to survive. Some people could have made a decision to institutionalize children like this.......they will be with her their whole life......
It reminded me when I was in 7th grade -- I had a chance to volunteer and help the special education class and I was assigned to Billy & Diane who were physically and mentally challenged -- I loved being around them -- they made me feel totally comfortable with them and I felt like there was no pretense about them -- authentic -- childlike -- Billy always had someone chasing him as he constantly wanted to take his clothes off and he was trying to Kiss Diane at every opportunity -- Diane in turn was always running from Billy -- never a dull moment with those two.....I forgot all about the terrible peer pressure of trying to fit in -- they made me focus on the best part of who I was in 7th grade.......
back to the bus in New York ......just before the next stop the mom informed the girls, "Get ready, put your feet down.....were going to start to walk"
I thought of the care and forethought that this mother puts in for her kids and the patience at guiding them each step of the way --- it made me think of the thoughts that the Lord has about us........and what He thinks every morning just before we wake up.........."Get ready, put your feet down......were going to start to walk."

It has been a bit since I last wrote on the blog -- but I have been immersed in some very deep areas of teaching and personal reflection. It is amazing to me how much farther we can go into delving into our lives when we "get away" if you will. I realize how privilged I am to experience this as those with families and other responsibilities can't always do this. Nonetheless -- I also think it ultimately has less to do with our responsibilities as much as the attitude of our heart and if we are going to let God be willing to have his way in our hearts. When it says in the gospel of John 6:66 "Many turned and followed him no more." There comes a point in all of our lives -- perhaps more than once, where we are personally challenged by something that happens in our life or we have a hard time accepting the teachings of Jesus and either in a blatant move of stubborness or rebellion we turn from Him -- or perhaps more common, it happens very gradually, we slowly cool in our response to His word, or the call of His spirit on our lives -- we allow the things of the world to slip back in -- we stop being so intense and lesson our attitude towards things that would be considered questionable and allow more "grey areas" to reign in our lives. I think when Jesus got away from the crowds and got alone with the Father - he gave us such a great example about how to maintain that connection in such a way where he could be strengthened by it and it would affect his choices that he made on a daily basis.
I am painfully aware of ways that I have let the "world" creep into that special place of relationship with the Lord and how easily things get watered down -- I am grateful for this time to face some of the harder issues -- head on in hopes that after I leave this place I might be more equipped to walk in a fuller way -- my true, authentic self -- that who I am in Christ Jesus.

Today at Ellel, we are learning about forgiveness -- a topic that has been taught many times before. Today an interesting point was brought up when they mentioned in the prayer Jesus taught the disciples to pray in Matt. 6, "...forgive us as we forgive those who sin against us...." There is a cause an affect in this prayer -- however not just the obvious -- we are not forgiven if we don't forgive those who sin against us and the laws of unforgivenes can still operate in our life -- those of judgement. We might not believe in gravity but if we step off a cliff -- it will operate and have its full affects on our life whether we participate in the reality of it or not -- so it is with unforgivenss. There are spiritual laws of cause and affect and judgement and curses and such that can operate in our life when we don't forgive.
It has opened up a new sense of reverence for me -- as I consider the holiness of God -- what He has done for me in forgiving me of my sins, past, present and future and how what a challenge I have to move in that forgivenes towards others. Sometimes this is a tall order --
Forgivenes is a decision of the will -- not a feeling -- feelings of mistrust, hurt, etc., can still be present in forgiveness. Forgivenes is a decision -- Healing is a process and a result -- but this can take time. Our job is to walk in the spiritual laws of forgivenes and look to the One, Jesus, who can heal us.
I have known much of this before -- but I feel I am looking at it in a whole new light at this point in my life. I am profoundly moved at the thought of the volnerability of Jesus and how he moved on this planet and what he must have felt, especially in regards to rejection and how he continued to be loving towards everyone -- how incredible is that -- when you really take that in -- what an example......

That is what I have been looking for -- a time to study the bible, learn more about what we can expect from God regarding healing and deliverance in our own lives and the lives of those that we would minister to -- I come to the 9-week School at Ellel Ministries with great expectations and a sense of excitement as I discover this wonderful physical part of the world here, the grounds of the building where this program takes place. It is in Lancaster which is a lovely little town that is about 50 minutes north of Manchester and very, very green right now and a bit wet as well.
I am with 31 other participants who represent 17 different nations. I am looking forward to getting to know them -- already had some great conversations. There happens to be two pianos in this wonderful Huge House and I have already enjoyed playing and singing -- something I have missed for sometime, having given up my apartment 3 years ago and giving my piano to my dad.
......I look forward to jotting down my thoughts as we go with perhaps a few photos as well -- I hope you take the journey with me.

I had a chance to do a live radio show tonight that went out to 3,000,000 (million) people. It is the only Christian Radio Station in Nepal and has been on the air for 2 years. This particular program was run by a guy from Pastor Bishwa's Church -- with commercials (by the way -- I was asked to do their new Radio Intro -- so I did a gratis Voice-Over for them.
I had a chance to share my story of living with AIDS and how the love of Jesus has strengthened me in my life. I was also asked about my time in Nepal and what I would hope to do in the future -- I think because I am really tired today -- I did not focus on how many people were listening or I would have been more nervous -- it is amazing to me that so many people can hear the same thing at the same time -- crazy.....
They announced the Youth Program that we are doing this Friday -- so who knows how many people will show up.....we shall see.
...... took some shots while on the back of a scooter -- very heavy traffic in certain parts of the city. Also there is what is called "load-sharing" which means that there are times during the day where electricity does not work -- that means even hotels -- that you pay to stay in -- don't have things that work - like the lights, or sockets, etc. they only work 4 hours during the day and it is usually when you have other things planned like between 12:00 noon and 4:00pm the power is on -- and also during 12:00 midnight and 4:00am -- the rest of the time -- it is on generator -- but phones don't work, light switches don't -- really hard trying to get stuff done -- I am staying in a hotel that is very cheap - about $20.00 US per night -- however -- it is weird to not have anything work -- it is like playing "hotel." I am growing in patience -- and loosing it all at the same time (God help me!)
some interesting shots around this very old city........I feel like I am back in time for sure.....
I arrived in Katmandu on Sunday afternoon after a very busy Saturday with the Pastors Conference in Hyderabad. I was greeted at the airport by Pastor Bishwu and some other guys from the church and taken to the hotel that I am staying. I slept for 10 hours straight and was met the next day to go and visit a hospital to pray for some people from their congregation -- including a newborn baby that has 2 holes in his heart -- Afterwards I had to get some cash so I was getting ready to use an ATM -- a machine by the way that when I put my card in said, "Hello John Forbes" all the way in Katmandu, Nepal -- I then looked over my shoulder and saw this elephant coming down the road -- lucky to get some shots -- on one hand I was marvelling at technology and then I saw this.......
The conference took place on Saturday, February 28th -- we had about 56 Pastors and about 6 volunteers attend the conference -- rounding out to a nice group. We had a couple stops and starts with the program actually going forward -- so with only 3 weeks notice and a go -- we were pleased with the group that attended. I was especially pleased that we had 30 Seminary/Theological Students attend. With them still forming many opinions and ideas about their calling and purpose it is a great privilege to speak to them at this critical time in the life of their vocational training.
The Conference was Co-Sponsored by Andrah Pradesh State AIDS Control Society, and its representative Prabhakar who works as a consultant with them. This is a new area of them working with "Faith-based" organizations -- so we were very pleased to get their support. Trevain from NeoLife Mission facilitated communication with the Pastors and Leaders in town and also helped pull together the administration of the event.
This event really confirmed this particular area of responsibility that I feel God calling me to and that is to bring awareness from a biblical perspective to Pastors and Leaders and the great opportunity for the Church to respond in Love to this pandemic that affects so many.
The Pics are of the Banner which hung over the stage, Trevain, Vijay & Praveen who helped with registration another shot of some of the registrants, a shot of Trevain Raj Kumar (left) NeoLife Mission Trust, Prabhakar, APSACS, (ctr) Myself (A.G.A.P.E. - A Global AIDS Perspective Enterprise).

.... in this group of photos you can see one of myself and Solomon, my translator, and myself doing a session called LIVING WITH AIDS, one with Prabhakar from APSACS - Andrah Pradesh State AIDS Control Society along with some other attendees, another session and then Lunch with some of the group -- and closing out with the final session "The Seat of Mercy" where I share a biblical perspective and responsiblity for Christian Leaders. We ended with a time of prayer and repentance for not fulling walking in love in response to the HIV/AIDS community and then rededicated our time and resources to this end!
.....In these photos we were handing out Certificates from A.G.A.P.E., APSACS & NEOLIFE MISSION for the attendees, and also there is a shot of the seminary students and myself -- they were a great group of young new leaders!
New Friends
Saji & Priya - are working with YWAM Hyderabad and taking care of ministry to those infected and affected by HIV. I had the pleasure of meeting Saji last year and got to spend the day with he and Priya and also do some in home ministry with a couple women on our way back to where I was staying. I thank God for them and look forward to getting to know them even more in the future. In the photo -- I am on the left, Saji in the middle and Priya on the right!

....here are some more shots from the concert on Friday Night -- it was outdoors -- the description is in post below!
Earlier I had posted some pics from a church that had some really interesting architecture -- this was the location for the outdoor concert on Friday, Feb. 20th. It was an evening event that started at 7:00pm with a worship team from YWAM Hyderabad. I had the pleasure of meeting them earlier in the week. They shared about 5 songs to start off with and then the "Formal" welcome happened where I was presented with a "Prayer Shawl" and also some flowers as is customary for this part of the world. Trevain from NeoLife Mission Trust was introduced and then he introduced me. You can also see a picture of Pastor Weston and his wife and kids and myself. He is the main pastor at the church. They are trying to construct a very large "Mega Structure" that will last them for many years and allow for growth. We had a good crowd -- some sound system problems -- many things that challenge you when you are pressed for time and also when it is "live" -- ultimately I think God touched hearts.
Peace . . . .

Another evening with Hyderabad Youth at the Baptist Church. I spoke there the night before at the English Service and was asked back again to address the Youth. I was a bit tired before I got started and a bit at a loss of what I was going to speak on, having shared my story there, preached there 2 other times as well -- so as I sought for direction I was lead to John 15 about Abiding In Christ -- and how "apart from Him we can do nothing...." a life lesson and a launching point of sharing. We had a great time -- great question and answer time and also a time of re dedication to God's plans for our lives.

I was invited by Saji & Priya from YWAM to come and speak at the Base. Paul (his last name escapes me right now) was the one who translated for me and we had a really good time. It was interesting as there was a group of about 15 from North Carolina who were on their DTS (Discipleship Training School) and so I was not used to speaking to Americans and Indians at the same time -- a bit of a brain warp -- but the Lord got me through it. I was invited back next time to partner with them in the work they are doing locally to Schools, Colleges, etc. Saji & Priya are heading up the HIV/AIDS initiatives for YWAM in the area. Saji is the one looking at the camera and smiling -- his wife Priya is just next to him looking the other way.......
We had a chance to meet Pastor Weston of the Wesley Church (I am doing a concert/sharing this Friday Night in an outdoor area). You can see him in the photo with Vijay and myself. Vijay is a part of that congregation and is the one organizing this Fridays event. There will be a big draw from the local colleges. You can see the outside of the Original Church which was constructed in 1927. This was actually a matter of meters from where the King of the Muslims was located -- so you can notice in the architecture that it incorporated many aspects of the local flavor and the Cross was added later. I loved the stain glass windows on the inside. They are going to construct a new church and hope to build something that will last for the next 50 years -- seating capacity of 10,000. I suggested it would be great to keep this original building as part of the cornerstone if at all possible -- it is a great building. Looking forward to this Friday.....

Tighter; more mineral and structured than the Maranges, this needs more time but is clearly very classy, complex and packed with dark fruit and earthy stone flavours. There is higher acidity in this than in the Maranges. The ageing is the same; 30% new oak barrels. A Premier Cru Santenay declassified into villages.
Contains Sulphites.
In January 2005, after years of travelling France and the rest of the world gaining vital wine-making experience two budding young vignerons, brothers Marc and Alexandre Bachelet, set up this Domaine that spans 10 hectares over the Maranges, Santenay and Puligny-Montrachet communes. With a buring desire to work with nature to make the finest possible wines, Marc and Alexandre adopt a very natural labour-intensive approach to wine-making. Soils are ploughed, vine health careful monitored, herbicides are forbidden and strict de-budding is carried out to limit yields, whilst all grapes are hand picked at optimum ripeness. This Domaine is a rapidly rising star. 50% new oak is employed for Grand Crus and the red Maranges whilst a little less is used for the 1er Crus. The wines are aged through two winters bottling early or late winter depending on the vintage and the appellation.
A village at the southern end of the Côte de Beaune, south of Chassagne-Montrachet, producing red wines and less frequently whites. The heavy marl rich and clay soils are suited to producing red wines, which are usually powerful though can tend towards the reustic. The best examples have body, weight and plenty of fruit to cover the sometimes rustic tannins. The best wines are capable of ageing well. The finest vineyards are considered to be the premiers crus La Comme, Clos de Tavannes, and Les Gravières, La Maladière, Clos Rousseau on the far border of Santenay. Vincent Girardin is probably the most famous and prolific Santenay producer.

As a college coach and a former pro ball player, I know the importance of staying healthy and fit. Unfortunately, too many young people in our country aren't getting enough physical activity and exercise
Past News ReleasesRSS
Ferndale, WA (Vocus) October 7, 2009
Former professional basketball player Scott Burrell will trade his high-tops for a pair of orange laces and running shoes as he joins over 1,000 students in Bushnell Park to celebrate ING Run for Something Better Day on Friday, October 9.
Burrell will help spread a positive message to young people about the benefits of health and fitness in connection with the ING Hartford Marathon , which takes place on Saturday morning, October 10.
"As a college coach and a former pro ball player, I know the importance of staying healthy and fit. Unfortunately, too many young people in our country aren't getting enough physical activity and exercise," said Burrell. "The great thing about running is that just about anyone can do it. You don't need a lot of equipment, and you don't have to be a professional athlete. I'm happy to see a company like ING making a difference and helping children take a positive step toward healthier lives."
ING Run For Something Better Day takes place at Hartford's Bushnell Park on Friday, October 9. The race is scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. For more information, visit http://www.inghartfordmarathon.com .

In the Hartford area, the ING Run For Something Better program is managed by the Hartford Marathon Foundation. Students from participating schools train by running their own version of a half marathon, covering 13.1 miles in 6 weeks. Those who complete 12 miles prior to marathon weekend are invited to ING Run For Something Better Day where they run their last 1.1 "final mile" in Bushnell Park, crossing over the official ING Hartford Marathon Finish Line. They also receive a finisher's medal and enjoy lunch as they experience the "World of Fitness" exhibits and activities.
Childhood obesity has become a serious health concern in the United States. Educating kids about the importance of living an active and healthy life is the cornerstone of the ING Run For Something Better.

About the ING Run For Something Better
The ING Run For Something Better is a fundraising campaign that supports community and school-based youth running programs. Linked to ING's long-distance race sponsorships, the program was created to introduce kids to the benefits of sport, a habit of physical fitness, and a healthy lifestyle that prevents conditions such as childhood obesity. In today's world of poor nutrition and less-active lifestyles -- which may contribute to childhood obesity -- ING is using its position as a sponsor of marathons as a platform for helping kids get fit through free, school-based running programs. Nationally, ING has committed over $2.5 million to fund grants and school-based running programs through ING Run For Something Better. Since 2006, over a half a million dollars has been raised by individual donors through the orange laces program.

nate2g (1290) Boomtown!, Australia | January 10, 2013
Tiny beer selection can be found in this wine shop along Rotorua's busy 'Eat Street'. The likes of Croucher, Emersons and Renaissance bottles on hand, if only a few. Located just across from Brew.
JapanTony (153) , Japan | September 17, 2013
Took a look around but found it to be a pretty disappointing lineup. Less than a dozen interesting beers, and no one seemed interested in helping me out. Better off just going across the street for Croucher's.
Travlr (3055) Charlotte , North Carolina | August 4, 2013
Small wine store with a very friendly and helpful proprietor. Beers on one shelf and one fridge - most of the Croucher range, plus Emersons and a handful of others. Convenient location across from Brew Craft.

Jimfl's things to look at
Sunday 12 April 2009
I've never met Jim Flanagan, but I've followed his shadowy trail across the internet for some time. Every year or so, it shifts, and I lose the scent. Then he re-appears to comment on a post of mine, and I pick it up again. I'm always glad when I do.
Today's finds:
- Aldo Cortesi's static 2d visualizations of sorting algorithms. Aldo doesn't like the dynamic nature of animated visualizations, and shows us what good-old 2D can do. Instructive and pleasing, and reminiscent of things I have done.
- Jared's Cube, a laser-cut wooden construction that is both simple and mesmerizingly complex (or is it complex and mesmerizingly simple?). Jared Tarbell is one of the founders of etsy, and seems to have a lot of fun with laser cutters.

Show-stopper demonstrates a flair for creativity
Entertaining large audiences is a challenge senior show director Tom Vazzana tackles on a daily basis. As the creator of live performances and seasonal events at Hong Kong Disneyland, his success lies in the ability to capture and enthral the attention of the transient crowds.
The latest example of Mr Vazzana's showmanship is Haunted Halloween, a month-long event that features a stream of attractions and peripheral entertainment aimed at consistently engaging and amusing visitors.
"Crowd-pleasing entertainment begins with carefully defining your target audience and understanding cultural nuances," says Mr Vazzana, who moved from the US to join the Hong Kong Disneyland team in 2005. He observes that Chinese audiences are particularly drawn to flamboyant spectacles and concludes that subtlety is not always the best way to catch their attention.
He adds that putting a show together is an art in itself: "It requires vision, inspirational storytelling techniques and the ability to translate stories into superb showmanship," he explains.
Mr Vazzana's passion for the arts has always directed his career path. He began as a scriptwriter and stage director in the pulsating art hub of New York City, where he mingled with accomplished directors and playwrights. When Disney Parks and Resorts in the US decided to expand their offer of live theatrical shows, Mr Vazzana saw an opportunity for his career to flourish both creatively and commercially.
Culture shock
Close attention to cultural preferences is part of Mr Vazzana's fundamental work philosophy. Relocating to Hong Kong has been a cultural awakening for Mr Vazzana, who had no prior work experience outside the US. "Local culture has a huge impact on my work. A show can go horribly wrong if cultural elements are neglected and I've always tried to adapt my shows to the preferences of my spectators," he says. "For my Hong Kong shows, I am always thinking of big ideas and I make my themes interesting right at the front gate." He notes also that different events attract specific audiences: "For instance, Chinese New Year draws in large numbers of mainland tourists, while Halloween is especially popular among local young adults."
Twice as large as last year's, Haunted Halloween features two haunted house — "Demon Jungle" and "Main Street Haunted Hotel", as well as the much anticipated "Glow in the Park Halloween Parade". Along with the main attractions that are unique to Hong Kong Disneyland, Mr Vazzana cleverly employed secondary visual and auditory cues to boost the Halloween buzz, since peripheral details help keep the theme alive and offer a more complete experience for visitors.
"I measure success through the audience's reactions, so I account for the spectator's perspective at every step of the production process," he says.
He notes however that a winning show requires greater attention to detail and a personal touch to create one-of-a-kind experiences. In a bid to engage his Halloween audience, Mr Vazzana got creative with spooky tactics — killing the street lights at night, fogging up trails and hiring actors as menacing pumpkin men, zombies and pirates. "By pumping up the fear factor and making it more interactive, we offer the entertainment value that Hong Kong youth seek. It's fresh, fun and has just the right amount of fright in the mix," he expands.
Creative obsession
Mr Vazzana has a knack for storytelling, which is both a passion and the key to his career success. "It's how I fit into this job role," he says.
His current role involves creating stories, writing scripts and communicating his vision to a large team which he also supervises, including production heavyweights such as those in charge of art direction, lighting, costume design and musical score.
"We all need to be on the same page in order to work productively and subsequently roll out a successful show," Mr Vazzana explains. "This is where storytelling becomes important. A good idea must be able to inspire everyone in the team. It's useless if you have a clever idea but cannot articulate your vision effectively."
Reflecting on other traits that he attributes to his success, Mr Vazzana stresses the importance of trust. "These large-scale projects are all about teamwork and it requires a huge dose of confidence in your colleagues." He nurtures trust by communicating clearly to avoid misunderstandings and ensures the entire team works toward a mutual goal — to deliver exceptional entertainment to the audience.
While creativity is imperative, it must be tempered with practical sensibilities. Ideas are worthy only if they can materialise after considering realistic constraints, such as space and budget. Mr Vazzana says, "I may want a live whale to be carried down a parade, but I would probably need to settle for one made out of papier-maché."

When the subject of the Vietnam War was raised during Thursday night's Democratic presidential debate, one of the two PBS moderators had a reaction that could not quite be stifled.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., and Hillary Clinton were batting about each other's shortcomings in foreign policy when Sanders criticized Clinton for taking advice from former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. Clinton responded that she took advice from many sources.
"It's just a very different historical perspective here," Sanders said. "Kissinger was one of those people during the Vietnam era …"

But as he paused to drive home the rest of his point, one of the moderators exhaled a deep, sighing comment that was captured by her microphone.
"Oh, God," came the woman's voice.
TRENDING: Dem Reads Trump's Tweets Out Loud During Hearing, That's When He Hears from Jeff Sessions
Sanders continued to make his point, which New York Magazine dubbed, "The Most Confusing Moment for Younger Voters," and the debate moved on. It was not clear if either candidate heard the remark.

"It was the reflexive response of an antsy kid who just had to listen to grandpa talk about his Iraq war vote for the 52nd time, and if you weren't paying close attention, you almost certainly would have missed it," wrote Ashley Feinberg on Gawker, who referred to the comment as a "rare bit of raw, uncensored moderator emotion."
"Much of the debate was rather dull, as the two Democrats agreed on a long list of goals, quarrelling only over how best to achieve them," wrote Lexington for The Economist. "A section on foreign policy showed off Mr. Sanders's quirky side and also his age, as he meandered into a long grumble about Mrs. Clinton taking advice from Henry Kissinger, the Republican former Secretary of State to President Richard Nixon."

John Cooper says lawyers are set to benefit in the year ahead as financial institutions revamp their regulatory structures in order to combat fraud. John Cooper is a barrister at 7 Stone Buildings.
The lessons to be learnt from such notable crimes as those committed by Nick Leeson and those at BCCI lie in the surprising vulnerability of international banking regulations.
In the UK we have not seen the last of the fraudulent misuse of our banking and financial institutions. With the government keen to leave the financial sector to its own devices, all eyes will be on internal regulation and the ability of financial institutions to combat fraud.
There is sure to be an increase in internal regulation in the near future, with the aim being to keep the banking house in order. It will be the interpretation of these regulations which will concentrate the minds of lawyers. In fact, the development of regulations in the UK presents a fertile area for practitioners in the year ahead.
The amount of impact that fraud is having on financial institutions means that risk awareness and risk management will be key areas for development.
Something else which is going to keep the Bar busy is the Internet with its impact on banking continuing to be immense. Once again, the regulatory implications of conducting business on the Net, whether selling or marketing services, are unclear. In the coming year, however, there should be an increasing regulatory influence in this area.
The Government's net is closing on offshore investments so clients will increasingly need advice on how to adapt to the changing regime.
The important events taking place in Europe cannot be ignored. With the single European currency being introduced in January 1999 and regardless of whether or not the UK is part of the first tranche of countries to embrace it banks of all nationalities based in this country are commissioning legal and financial expertise to guide them through the massive changes about to engulf our financial institutions.
Legal issues relating to the emerging financial markets, particularly in eastern Europe, will occupy a significant number of lawyers in the months to come. With the shift away from the Hong Kong axis to that of central/eastern Europe, a great deal of acclimatisation is on the cards for practitioners.
A further area of interest is the ongoing conflict between the banks and building societies and the Solicitors Indemnity Fund. Previous cases which have pitted mortgage lenders against lawyers include National Home Loans Corporation v Giffen Couch & Archer, which reconsidered the question of whether a solicitor was under an implied duty to provide the mortgagee with information which had not been requested but which might be material to the lending decision.
Although the extent of the duty owed by a solicitor still depends on the mortgagee's instructions, the court will not bend over backwards to assist mortgagees who wish, with hindsight, that they had insisted on fuller disclosure.
In 1998, we are entering a significant period of change as practitioners increasingly take account of the international perspective and the impact which increased regulation will have on all financial institutions.

INFO: Using Hostsman for Host Redirection
Our previous tip, blocking potentially hazardous websites with hosts file was one of the many methods you can harden your system. You can also install your own caching DNS server and disable ports that are opened by default. These tweaks contribute bit by bit to the overall security of our computer systems. In the tech lingo, it is referred to as hardening.
When we blocked potentially hazardous websites via hosts file, you noticed that browsing was faster too. This is because most web tracking elements that run on the background got blocked too. And since that tweak was enforced, your anonymity on the web has improved and you can now browse with a bit more confidence.
We can improve on that tweak above. There is a tool made exactly to accomplish the purpose of blocking websites via hosts redirection. That tool is hostsman (by abelhadigital.com).
What does hostsman do? In short, it accomplishes the block via a couple of clicks. To see it in action, download hostsman and extract the zip file to a directory of your liking. Make it easy to remember the path where you extract it. Or better yet, after extracting pin hostsman.exe to your taskbar for easy reach.
Launch the software. Click the middle button (icon with globe behind computer) to update hosts.
Use the overwrite option when updating. Or you can use merge, then optimize later. Whichever option you choose, it accomplishes the same purpose. And this highlights the flexibility of hostsman.
What's more? You can disable this blocking in a single mouse click. The first button (green "H" symbol) on hostsman disables the hosts file. Should it block a website you frequent, just disable host blocking with hostsman and when done, just re-enable. When disabled, the green "H" icon is colored red.
Furthermore, hostsman when used this way does not exactly automate the updates. But it could. Set it to automatically start with Windows -- Tools > Options > System > (tick) Automatically start with Windows. Under Update tick Enable Hosts file Auto-Update.
With that you will no longer have to worry about updates to the hosts file. When an update is available, hostsman will notify you of that. Or you can choose not to be bothered at all.

Berchtesgaden (Germany). Despite spring temperatures over the past couple of days the pipe for the fifth Halfpipe contest of the 2000/2001 Nokia Snowboard FIS World Cup in Berchtesgaden was in pretty good shape, especially when it came to the finals which was held at floodlight. Markku Koski from Finland and Germany's Sabine Wehr-Hasler took the wins.
Spring temperatures have made the snow very soft and although people enjoyed to be around with sunshine and 18 degrees for the qualification everyone was scared that the pipe might suffer too much from the conditions but the organisers did a great job with shaping it and it turned out to be fine for the finals.
Markku Koski from Finland had a great first run already and looked as if he was even pushing for more in the second but then landed on the deck right before the finish line. "It was pretty fun today," he said, "having spring in February is pretty strange but I don't mind… I kind of slammed my straight air which was bad but I made it ¿ that's just great."
Italy's Giacomo Kratter went in second place. He was going big in the first run but crashed after his last flip and went in sixth place. Improving his performance in the second run he made it up to second. "I would have liked the pipe to be a little bigger," he said, "but it was fun riding. After my crash in the first run my head felt strange – a little bit like being drunk but it didn't hurt too much so I'm fine with second place.
Norwegian rider Jon Odden has been ranked second after the first run but dropped back to third when Kratter pulled it together in the second run. "I landed on the coping in the second run and lost a bit of the speed," he said. "I tried to get it back but I didn't. In some parts the pipe was a little bumpy on the walls but it was okay to ride.
Magnus Sterner from Sweden looked as if he would have liked the pipe to be a bit longer in the first run and was in fifth place after that. When he crashed half way down the pipe in the second run there was no means for him to make it up again and he finally ended up eighth but still keeps the lead in the World Cup standings. His teammate Stefan Karlsson, fifth today, remains in second ahead of Brett Carpentier from Canada who just missed the finals and finished 11th.
The Berchtesgaden Halfpipe fits Germany's Sabine Wehr-Hasler a lot. The 2000 Halfpipe World Cup champion had won last year's contest there and also claimed the gold today with two solid runs in the finals. "This really is my pipe," she said, relieved, "after quite a time I had fun riding again today. With those temperatures the conditions were pretty difficult but they showed that it's possible to put a good pipe in place however. Also, I tried to keep my hands off the wall during the flip at the end which has caused some trouble for me in the qualifications. I'm glad I worked it out."
Alessandra Pescosta from Italy, third after the first run, was the only one of the six female finalists to increase her score with the second run and finally went in second place. "I just said to myself that there was nothing to lose after the first run," she said. "I was pretty nervous but could improve by almost two points which was enough to get there. The pipe was a bit soft but it has a good transition.
Japanese rider Yuri Yoshikawa had a solid first run for second place but seemed a bit shaky in the second run and finally claimed third place today. "My first run was okay," she said, "but then I changed my tricks a bit in the second run and had some problems with the McTwist so third place is fine for me."
Stine Brun Kjeldaas from Norway who did not enter the Berchtesgaden event is still leading the standings ahead of Japan's Michiyo Hashimoto. Sabine Wehr-Hasler moved up to third.
Head-to-head duels in Parallel Slalom will be next tomorrow, a second Halfpipe is scheduled for Saturday.

There is an obvious proof that Magi Astrology Really Works!
The proof is so obvious you can actually see it working day by day, minute by minute, in the financial markets (stock, bond, currency and commodity markets).
For those of you who are fans of Fibonacci Ratios and Retracements, here is a summary of part of this proof:
These are remarkably close to the main Planetary Motion Ratios of:
0.3877 and 0.3902
0.6151 and 0.6011
We are not claiming that Planetary Motion Ratios will make you megabucks in stock or commodity trading. We are saying that Fibonacci works because of Planetary Motion Ratios (which we call Astro Fibonacci Ratios).
A Planetary Motion Ratio is the ratio of one planets PERIOD (time to revolve once around the Sun) and another planets period. For example:
The period of Venus is 224.70 days.
The period of the Earth is 365.256 days.
The Venus/Earth Planetary Motion Ratio is = 224.7 divided by 365.256 which is:
Or just a mere 0.0029 from being exactly the same as the Fibonacci ratio of 0.618.
The Mercury/Venus Planetary Motion Ratio is = 87.969 divided by 224.7 which is:
Or just a mere 0.0082 from being exactly the same as the Fibonacci ratio of 0.382
Planetary Ratios appear to have an influence on stock markets. One way to see this is to use a stock chart. We believe the stock markets will find natural support or resistance at price levels that are predictable using Planetary Ratios.
Below are two charts of the S&P 500 Index:
Above is a five-year chart of the S&P 500 displaying both standard Fibonacci and Astro Fibonacci retracement ratios. Both types of Fibonacci ratios are calculated using the all time high made in October of 2007 and the low made in March of 2009.
The standard Fibonacci retracement levels are represented by the red lines going horizontally accross the whole chart. The Astro Fibonacci ratio levels are marked by the blue lines drawn horizontally accross the rightside of the chart.
There are nineteen primary and secondary Astro Fibonacci ratios; inside the right hand margin of the chart, we have labeled ten of these ratios.
Please examine the above chart, and notice how the stock market "gravitates" to all 19 Astro Fibonacci ratios . Please note that almost always, as the market zigzags, the lows and highs are formed close to one of the 19 Astro Fibonacci levels. It means Astro Fiboancci works and that is the reason standard Fibonacci works.
In most cases, Astro Fibonacci is more precise than standard Fibonacci.
For example, you can see that the Ceres/Jup ratio of 38.8% was more accurate at forecasting support and resistance than the 38.2% standard Fibonacci ratio.
In the chart above, the Ceres/Jup line looks like it is twice as thick as the other blue lines but that is because there are actually two lines there - besides the Ceres/Jup ratio of 38.8% there is also a blue line representing the 39.0% Mercury/Venus ratio. Because these two Astro Fiboancci ratios are nearly exactly the same, they have the combined power of twice the force of any single Astro Fibonacci ratio. These two Astro Fibonacci ratios are what makes the 38.2% standard Fibonacci ratio work.
The chart below is drawn with the Astro Fibonacci ratios reversed. Sometimes, the reversed ratios are also very helpful indicators of natural support and resistance.
Since the 1980's, traders have used the five standard Fibonacci ratios to calculate useful support and resistance levels. Since the 1980's, astute traders have known Fibonacci ratios worked but never knew why they worked. It was a mystery - the Fibonacci Mystery.
But recently, the Magi Society discovered that every one of the five Fibonacci ratios was nearly exactly the same as an Astro Fibonacci ratio - Fibonacci works because Astro Fibonacci works. This is confirmed by the fact that all Astro Fibonacci ratios are useful for predicting support and resistance levels.

Kim Kardashian NOT "Dumped" By Kanye West After Robbery, Despite Report
Kim Kardashian was NOT "dumped" by Kanye West after the robbery, despite a new tabloid cover story. Gossip Cop can exclusively correct the report.
The new cover of In Touch hit newsstands on Wednesday blaring, "Dumped At Her Lowest Point." Inside the magazine, a headline similarly declares, "At The Lowest Point In Her Life… Kim Gets Dumped." As Kardashian continues to recover from the traumatic robbery, it's alleged, "Her husband has dumped her when she needed him the most."
But by "dumped," the magazine means that West simply returned to performing concerts. A so-called "source" is quoted as saying, "Kim and Kanye got into a blazing argument when he told her he was adding 20 new dates to his Saint Pablo Tour. She explained to Kanye over and over again how she hates being alone right now. She screamed at him for not taking her feelings into account."
"[West] told Kim, 'I'm not your full-time therapist,' and stormed out. At the lowest point in her life, Kim was dumped," claims the supposed source, who alleges Kardashian "just can't believe that her own husband who should be there for her 'for better or worse' is putting the tour before her emotional state." The outlet's tipster adds, "This is the worst time of her life and she thought she could count on Kanye. She was wrong."
Of course, in actuality, it's In Touch that's wrong. Gossip Cop has already debunked similar stories that falsely claimed Kardashian was upset with West continuing his tour. On the contrary, she supports him fulfilling his professional obligations and is happy he works so hard to financially support their family.
Furthermore, just hours before this cover story came out, Kardashian actually attended West's Los Angeles concert. It should go without saying that if she was actually "dumped" and angry about the rapper performing, she would've have gone. Now a rep for Kardashian exclusively confirms to Gossip Cop that the In Touch allegations are "obviously false."

This is the time of the year when most people put emphasis on gift-giving and spending quality time with family and friends. It's also the time of year when people seem to be most charitable toward those less fortunate than themselves. I thank God for the goodwill that is extended toward others. However, I believe all of us can use more of God's grace during the holiday season. The good news is that Jesus, Who is the reason for the season, came to give us more of God's grace—His unmerited, undeserved favor!
In this issue of CHANGE magazine, I will share with you how to trust the way of grace in your family relationships, in your interaction with other people, and most importantly, in your relationship with the Person of grace, Jesus Christ.
You have been made the righteousness of God by faith in Jesus Christ. God declared you righteous! All you have to do is believe it and receive it. Your righteousness is a finished work. When you trust the way of grace, it opens the door for you to receive everything that grace has made available to you—divine healing, deliverance, a sound mind, wholeness, prosperity, the promise of safety and divine protection—and so much more!
When you trust the way of grace, loving others—even the unlovely—will no longer be an issue. Why? Most relationships don't fail because of a lack of love—they fail because of a lack of grace. Every Christian has the love of God. His love and grace rules in our hearts and teaches us to live self-controlled lives. Your job is not to play "Holy Ghost Junior" by trying to change people's behavior. Only God can change a person's heart. Your job is to stay in faith, stay in a posture of prayer, and stay on the Word for your family, and other relationships. Don't be quick to give up, cave in, and quit on people. If God's grace was able to pull you up out of a ditch, it can do the same for your loved ones. When people understand grace, they will be empowered to change!
People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care! Make your mind up that this holiday season you're going to give the gift of love! People may not deserve it, but neither did we! God extended His love, grace, and mercy to us by sending Jesus to die for us while we were still dead in sin! Hallelujah! Grace promotes obedience to the faith, which means receiving by faith what grace has already made available to you. The love of God has been written on your heart. It's already available to you. Choose to love and extend grace to people right where they are. Grace will empower you to love the unlovely—no matter what.
Above all else, celebrate and give thanks this Christmas season for the Person of grace, Jesus Christ! He's the greatest gift this world has ever received!
We love hearing about what God is doing in your life, and we would love to hear how the Gospel of grace is impacting you, so please share your testimonies! Your feedback and comments are important to us, and we would love to hear from you. Please e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com or send your thoughts to:

I've been thinking about getting a pair of leather look leggings for quite some time now, but didn't really know what to style them with.
I found a cheap pair at Primark, and ever since I bought them I've absolutely loved them! I just didn't really know what to style them with at first…
Many people are a bit funny about combining leather and lace, saying they're each other's complete opposites with one symbolising naughty and the other one nice. Who says you can't be both? ;)
The combination of leather and lace became popular a few years back, when you saw celebrities such as Lindsay Lohan rocking this style. I was a bit against lace back then as I found it too girly, but I've really embraced this style now, and I think the combination of the tough leather and the romantic lace is like a match made in heaven.
The black lace blazer that I'm wearing is from New Look, and it's so easy to incorporate in all sorts of outfits. You can dress it up or down as you want, and it's one of my favourite garments. I'm wearing it with two basic tops from H&M of the longer types. You can barely see the one underneath (except for in the first and the last photo), but it's a powdery dusky pink, layered with a white and grey flowy top with a flower pattern. I'm opting for longer tops with my leggings as you're not really supposed to wear leggings as pants – it does look quite silly when you do.
As the flowery top is big and flowy and therefore not very flattering, I'm wearing a black stretchy waist belt with a silver buckle from H&M to mark my shape a bit more.
The shoes are a new addition, which I got from ebay. I've been desperate for a pair of black mid-heel brogues for absolutely ages, and finally found a pair that I liked. They go pretty perfect with my leather look leggings, don't you think? They're super comfy, and really versatile.
Jewellery wise I've gone for silver as this compliments the black really well, plus it doesn't clash with my belt. The ring is made by a Swedish designer, and is actually a silver fork bent into a ring. Really clever, and so stylish. It was a present from my parents for my graduation, and it's been one of my favourite pieces ever since.
The silver cat earrings are from my teenage years, believe it or not. I found them in a drawer last time I visited my family back home in Sweden, and thought they were quite quirky. I had forgotten about them, but have now welcomed them back into my life again.
So… leather and lace. Black, white and silver. One of my best outfit combos, I would say. What do you think?
Oh, and my cat is always desperate to photobomb all my blogger photos! Silly! :)

- Hi Rhaíssa, can you tell us more about you?
A Brazilian who doesn't like coffee or soccer, but does like samba and carnival. Recently post-graduated in film, I studied and work mostly with cinematography. 26 years young, back to Brazil after having lived in 22 different houses, 10 different cities, 5 different countries.
- How did you get started in photography?
In the first semester of the university we had photography class. I was so amazed that instantaneously I was sure I wanted to work with that. The professor we had was incredibly inspiring. She is a great photographer, cinematographer and above all an admirable person. I guess her teaching added a lot of enchantment to photography. The next year I was a monitor in the photo lab of the university. It was built by the students which allowed us to learn a lot in a hand-made and experimental way.
- We saw you have experimented with many types of destroyed films, and most of their results are so incredible. So could you please tell us some of your work?
I soak analogue photos in liquids such as white wine, red wine, hot water with salt, bleach, pee, carbonate of soda, lemon, vinegar, paprika in water etc... sometimes I also use expired films and tights in front of the lens.
- Tell us about your influences and what inspires you?
Either in film or in photography what touches me the most are comments about reality. So, surrealism, fantastic worlds. I am touched by images that try to express the way we feel reality rather than images that try to document reality "as we see". An interior portrait. Soaking films is one of the ways I found to create marvelous worlds, my interior portrait, and that is only possible in analogue support.
I guess I am also really inspired by the person who I am looking at. Most of the people I click are close to me. The photos are also a way to show them my affection. I hope that is felt by them when they see the picture. it is a gift in which I tell them that their passage in my life is really important to me and I would like to keep a trace of it.
- Are you a full time photographer or is it just a hobby? And are you currently working on any projects?
Let's say I am in the imaging world. From camera assistant to cinematographer, from photographer to director (love Super-8!!). My transit - like most of the people in this area - is between professional and personal projects. So it is a real full-time occupation, because in my free time I am still making images.
Right now I am quite obsessed by the link between melancholy, phantasmagoria as a photography essence (the "presence" of the past in the present, the return of the dead) and the feminine iconography - not only the female body, even though this is my main symbol, but also icons that in the occidental imaginary are related to the feminine, such as the nature, the water, the moon.
- Do you have a favorite photographer?
I am incapable to list favorite directors, photographers... But two people came to my mind while thinking about this question. One is the Czech photographer Miroslav Tichý. I am extremely touched by his handmade images. The cameras he built combined to his gaze of admiration towards women, made his pictures very authentic. The second person is the young photographer Alison Scarpulla. Her imaging world is beautifully mysterious. I identify myself with her work, not only because she also soaks negatives, but also because of this supernatural and mystic figures.
- Is there any advice you can give to new analogue shooters?
I believe in the digital era the biggest reason to shoot in analogue is to explore the possibilities specific to this support. Digital also offers its specificities, one medium doesn't replace the other, they complement each other. So, let's experiment what only analogue offer us. (And get a negative scanner!).
Rhaíssa, thank you so much for the interview!

The actress takes part in "The Driving Game" for a new PSA that suggests drivers who partake in such programs are not properly vetted before accepting passengers.

A rep for Lyft has since taken on the PSA's claims, insisting it "misleads consumers about the many safety benefits of ride-sharing."

I-9 Audits: The Danger of Too Much Documentation
By The Shapiro Law Group, Illinois
Law Firm's Profile & Articles
Law Firm's Profile & Articles
After the wave of I-9 audits in recent years, employers have become rightfully wary of not documenting their immigrant workforce. Everyone knows by now that the penalties for hiring undocumented workers can be stiff. But what many employers do not realize is that there is a risk to over-documentation as well.
Under the law, employers should accept only one of either:
- So-called "List A" documentation; or
- A combination of so-called "List B" and "List C" documentation.
An employer with repeated instances of over-documentation may be inadvertently laying the groundwork for a case of "pattern or practice" discrimination claims by plaintiffs or by the U.S. Department of Justice.
That is why hiring professionals need to be carefully trained how to document a workforce, and they must be trained to reject any benign but inappropriate offer of multiple forms of documentation.
The dual dangers presented by immigration and discrimination laws and regulations also provide employers with good reasons to put experienced counsel between themselves and the government in preparing for I-9 audits.
If you are an employer or employer's representative responsible for immigration compliance, do not hesitate to call our offices for an appointment and/or feel free to check out our immigration law Website for more information.
