Daily briefs of the top Christian news and persecution stories impacting believers around the world.
In today's edition:
- Family of Somali Girl Abuses Her for Leaving Islam
- Nigerian Bishops Credits Evangelism with Huge Growth
- Ten Commandments in Kentucky Called Unconstitutional
- Immigration a 'Kingdom Issue,' Land Says
Family of Somali Girl Abuses Her for Leaving Islam
Compass Direct News reports that the Muslim parents of a 17-year-old Somali girl who converted to Christianity continue to abuse her. They severely beat her for leaving Islam and have regularly shackled her to a tree at their home for more than a month, Christian sources said. Nurta Mohamed Farah has been confined to her home since May 10, when her family found out that she had embraced Christianity, said a Christian leader who visited the area. Her parents also took her to a doctor who prescribed medication for a "mental illness," he said. Alarmed by her determination to keep her faith, her father, Hassan Kafi Ilmi, and mother, Hawo Godane Haf, decided she had gone crazy and forced her to take the prescribed medication, but it had no effect in swaying her from her faith, the source said.
Nigerian Bishops Credits Evangelism with Huge Growth
The Anglican Church in Nigeria has experienced explosive growth over the last two decades to become the largest active Protestant body in the world. The church grew from 24 dioceses in 1988 to 156 dioceses today. According to Christian Today, those in the church credit a changing view of a bishop's role - an evangelist, not a ceremonial leader - for the growth. The Rt. Rev. Peter Jasper Akinola, a previous primate of the Church of Nigeria, says bishops used to enjoy special treatment and were addressed as "His Lordship." Then the church sent bishops to weak Anglican areas to form full-fledged congregations. "Today, every bishop (in the Church of Nigeria) is first and foremost an evangelist," said Akinola. "And from that, other things follow."
Ten Commandments in Kentucky Called Unconstitutional
The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 that the Ten Commandments display placed in the Courts of McCreary and Pulaski Counties in Kentucky violated the Establishment Clause of the Constitution, according to Christian Newswire. The court noted that the purpose of the displays is religious, while displays in other counties have stood because they lacked that purpose. Judge James L. Ryan recommended a rehearing with the full Sixth Circuit panel of Judges because of several other rulings by the court which had different outcomes. Mathew Staver, Founder of Liberty Counsel and Dean of Liberty University Law School said, "The Ten Commandments are a part of the fabric of our country. They are as much at home in display about the foundations of law or as the stars and stripes are in the flag. The Founding Fathers would be outraged that we are even debating the constitutionality of the Ten Commandments."
Immigration a 'Kingdom Issue,' Land Says
Immigration is "an important issue that has reached a critical phase," Richard Land told members of the National Hispanic Fellowship of Southern Baptist Churches June 13. Baptist Press reports that Land, president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, addressed the small gathering of Hispanic Southern Baptists at First Baptist Church in Kissimmee, Fla. "I'm not telling you anything you don't know when I tell you this issue is rending the social fabric of the country," said Land, who had visited with President Barack Obama's advisers at the White House on the subject during the previous week. He touched on the controversial Arizona law that requires police to check with the federal government on a person's status, calling it a "cry for help." He continued, "As a symptom, it needs to be addressed with a federal immigration policy that works."

Sellers should be realistic when pricing their homes
Permalink: Sellers should be realistic when pricing their homes
by Kay Mitchell
Property portal, Rightmove.co.uk, said sellers need a 'reality check' when pricing their homes for sale.
According to Rightmove, last month new-to-the market sellers raised their average asking prices to £239,655 – a rise of 0.8%, despite the credit squeeze resulting in tighter mortgage lending.
Rightmove warned that some properties could become unsaleable if sellers do not drop asking prices and the Government does not take action to strengthen funding markets.
Rightmove advertises 90% of all homes for sale via estate agents across the UK, measuring an average 35,000 properties coming to the market per week. The organisation said the UK housing market was in danger of stagnating, as house price growth nears 0%.
Miles Shipside of Rightmove said most sellers coming to the market seem to be ignoring the increased competition from other unsold properties and the challenge buyers now face in obtaining a mortgage.
As many of these sellers are likely to be buyers themselves, they seem to be trying to bank a higher figure for their home but want a bargain when they buy. It's human nature, but in the current market, sellers should price below their competition to achieve more interest now and avoid a larger price fall later this year, added Mr Shipside.
Smart pricing is needed and should take into account recent comparable property sales, buyers' affordability constraints and competing properties on the market. With lower levels of sales transactions, competition is growing, he continued.
Average unsold property stock per branch has increased from 56 a year ago to 67 currently, up from 64 last month and support forecasts that completed transactions will be below a million this year, commented Mr Shipside.
If sellers were to price more realistically at the same time as lenders were able to normalise lending criteria, we could see a speedier harmonisation of seller expectations and buyer affordability. Until then, there will be a lot of sellers who can't sell and a lot of buyers who can't buy, and everyone sitting on their hand, concluded Mr Shipside.
The news follows an announcement by The National Association of Estate Agents who said the number of house-buyers on estate agents' books fell 12% in February, to 243 per agent from 276 in January. This represented the lowest figure in its monthly housing market survey to date.

No. The bikers cut him off and caused a minor accident. When the SUV driver stopped they attacked his vehicle. He feared for his life and did the only thing he could to try to protect his family from the thugs.
I don't believe part of that account. Don't take it as gospel.
I don't believe the Chinese guy and his family were in danger at this point. What I see is vibrant exuberant Hispanics out having a good time and Chinese guy does not know how to take this in. I hope you know that Chinese are awful drivers at least in America. Chinese guy panicked thus paralyzing a vibrant culture bike rider (Hispanic)
The Chinese guy -Alex Lien- went to the hospital and was released. He had minor injuries.

The Führer's Birthdays - 1933 to 1945 DVD
Historical documentary which focuses on the significance of Adolf Hitler's birthday throughout his time as leader of Nazi Germany.
Hitler came to power in 1933, and every year on the 20th of April, the country would celebrate in his honour.
Throughout the war years, however, these events would become more and more reserved, and in 1945, Hitler celebrated his final birthday just before taking his own life.
The programme investigates what these events meant to the Führer, and what they tell us about life in Germany at the time.

I am very excited about the 4th. I am generally excited about any holiday where I can dress the girls up but couple that with the fact that it is in the summer just makes my day!
I have adorable dresses for the girls to take pictures in on the 4th and Grammie brought me over some headband thingys with red and blue deely boppers on them for the girls to wear while I take some pictures (that of course should be interesting).
We are going over Aunty Cheryls for the day too with the whole family and are going to cook out and play in the pool! I am so excited! We never do the 4th over there so it should be fun! And I hear the weather is going to be gorgeous! Yippee for family! My goal is to take tons of pics that day!
So besides the 4th coming up I have also been on Weight Watchers for a few days. I seriously just need to get my old body back. I am not sure where it went (vacation in Tahiti for all I know) but I am so over my fatness right now. I know I will never have my old body back, but I want as close as humanly possible please!
It sucks having Gary and I working different shifts, we both grab stuff on the go to eat which obviously isn't "healthy choices" and that is leading to both of us packing on the weight. Well not no more! I refuse to be fat. Sorry world. Your not getting me!!!
Skinny Erin.......here........I......come!

President's Corner
As I was preparing to write this column, I first read our Past President's September note from last year. Jeff noted that fall was arriving, a time to look forward to cooler temperatures, college football Saturdays, and new students on campus. This year, we unfortunately add to that list preparation for hurricanes. We hope all of our SAEA members stayed safe in Harvey and will stay safe in Irma's path. Although for some of us, the focus may be on weather for now, it is also time to prepare for the annual meetings. The upcoming SAEA Annual Meetings will be held February 2-6, 2017, in Jacksonville, Florida. We hope you will plan to join us this year. We look forward to the opportunities for research, teaching, extension, and industry professionals and graduate students to present to colleagues and discuss agricultural economic issues; and for undergraduates to participate in the Quiz Bowl, attend presentations, and network with colleagues at other universities.
In addition, this year we will have a special focus on graduate student activities at the meetings. An ad-hoc committee of graduate students (Michael Jones, NCSU; Joanna Karavolias, Florida; Michelle Segovia and Bachir Kassas, TAMU; and Samane Zarebanadkoki, Kentucky) are preparing special organized sessions focusing on issues related to graduate student life. In addition, we are planning a networking reception on late Sunday afternoon for graduate students. We encourage departments to have graduate students arrive early enough to attend as this promises to be fun and allow for more networking throughout the meeting.
Please note that September 18, 2017 is the deadline to submit proposals for selected papers, posters, and organized symposia. The success of our meeting depends on the quality of submissions, so please submit a proposal and plan to attend the meetings. Information on how to submit proposals is on the SAEA website at www.saea.org. Jacksonville is a great city and I know Jeff Jordan is organizing a number of fun networking and social events for students, faculty, and industry partners.
Undergraduate participation at the SAEA meetings via the Quiz Bowl has been very strong in recent years. We want to see that continue! Please encourage and support your students in coming to the meetings and participating. Please also consider participating in the Recruitment Fair. At just $100, it offers a great opportunity to recruit excellent students into your graduate programs.
The deadline for award nominations is also September 18, 2017. Information on how to nominate yourself or someone else for an award can be found on the SAEA website at www.saea.org. Award categories include Lifetime Achievement Award, Outstanding Teaching of a Course Award, Distinguished Extension Program Award, Outstanding Master's Thesis Award, and Outstanding Ph.D. Dissertation Award. These awards are meaningful for the recipients and highlight the excellent work conducted by our colleagues.
I want to highlight the officer candidate bios and vision statements that are included in this newsletter. We have an excellent slate of candidates for both President-Elect and Director. I want to thank all of the candidates for their willingness to serve. You will receive instructions for voting soon, so please examine these bios closely and vote! The SAEA needs continued strong leadership to help deliver the outstanding programs our members have come to expect. I also want to remind you to renew your membership. Membership in SAEA is inexpensive and the benefits are excellent! Renewal is easy using our portal found under the "Payments" button on the membership page. I look forward to seeing all of you in Jacksonville!
Lisa House, SAEA President

Davis Love recorded three eagles as he amassed a second round total of 17 points to build a 10-point lead at The International at Castle Rock, Colorado.
Love recorded the most points in the modified Stableford scoring system for the second successive day and leads with a tournament-record 36 points.
John Rollins scored 15 to lie alone in second with 26 points, while 1997 champion Phil Mickelson totalled 14 points and is third on 22 after a 66 that included two eagles.
Love said: "I've played some pretty good rounds back-to-back, but these are two pretty incredible rounds. I couldn't wait to get out there today after yesterday. I felt anything I tried to do, I could do. I got off to a good start and then started making eagles.
"Greg Norman was laughing at me, how many putts I was making. It's an incredible feeling when everything is going just right," he said.
Love picked up 17 points, setting a two-round tournament record with 36 points. At one point, he had a 25-point lead. By the end of the day, Rollins was only 10 behind after a none-too-shabby 65 that was worth 15 points.
Still, Love's lead was the largest halfway margin in the 18-year history of the event. Mickelson was third, 14 points behind.
The key to Love's round was three eagles in a sizzling six-hole stretch that matched the PGA Tour mark for eagles in an entire round.
A double-bogey at his penultimate hole, the par-five eighth, marred a day to remember. He hit his only poor drive of the round, pulling it into a bush and taking a penalty drop.
"I've only hit two bad drives in two days," Love said. "I am healthy, hitting the ball great and putting really well. I haven't had that combination for the last two years."
Love adopted a conservative strategy off the tee in an effort to find the fairways. But once he did, he attacked the pins with his irons. He picked up two birdies in his first three holes before making an eagle at the par-five 14th, where he struck a four-iron to 22 feet.
He also eagled the par-five 17th, lipping out a four-iron before tapping in from 17 inches. His last eagle came at the par-five first, where he hit a three-iron to eight feet.
When he birdied the second hole, he was 17-under through 29 holes. But that was the end of the fireworks. Love parred six of his final seven holes around the double-bogey at the eighth.
Love already has three titles this year, but he judges his seasons primarily on his performance in the majors. He has just one major victory under his belt and, at the age of 39, time is not on his side.
The International format awards eight points for double-eagle, five for eagle, two for birdie and subtracts one point for bogey and three for double-bogey or worse.

NEW YORK, May 17 (Reuters) - Lower income U.S. households suffered further declines in their financial situation in the first three months of 2011, and improvement is unlikely in the second quarter, according to a survey of nonprofit groups released by the Philadelphia Federal Reserve on Tuesday.
Only 1 percent of survey participants said the financial situation of low to moderate income households improved in the first quarter, and 84 percent do not expect improvement in the current quarter.
The quarterly survey monitors factors such as affordable housing and credit availability affecting low and moderate income households in Delaware, southern New Jersey, and eastern Pennsylvania.
Most respondents, 76 percent, said demand for their services increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. Most expected demand to keep growing in the second quarter, and none saw it decreasing over that time frame.
At the same time, many nonprofits are dealing with a decline in funding, with 49 percent saying funding fell last quarter and 53 percent expecting a further decline.
Four percent said access to credit had increased and 10 percent expect credit to be more easily available over the next three months.
The three factors seen most affecting access to credit are underwriting standards, lack of financial knowledge and lack of cash flow.
Ninety-two percent of respondents said access to affordable housing had either stayed the same or decreased.
Competition for subsidy funding and lack of capital were seen as most affecting access to affordable housing, the survey found. (Reporting by Kristina Cooke; Editing by Leslie Adler)

Among the larger metropolitan areas in the country, Atlanta, Georgia, has a wide array of attractions, events and festivals. Amid rolling green hills and thick forests, this southern hub is sure to have a few unique birthday party venues. Whether you are looking for something specific to Atlanta or just a place that is out of the ordinary, you can find it in the peach state capital.
Party Places
There are a few party places that can only be found in Atlanta. Leapin Lizards has 20,000 square feet of play area with giant inflatables, hockey tables, a toddler area and a separate party room. A variety of birthday packages are available that include tableware, juice and playtime. Hippo Hopp Indoor Playground is an eco-friendly facility with an all organic cafe. You can customize your party package to include you choice of face painting, a private room, birthday banner, goody bags, balloons and plenty of play time on the inflatables and play areas. Mighty Jumps is another indoor playground option with obstacle courses, slides and bounce houses. Party packages include pizza, drinks, a private room and access to the playground. For children ages 1 to 7, Tumble Tots in Norcross, 23 miles from Atlanta, will host your party in its indoor playground with face painting, themes and crafts.
Interesting Game Centers
If you are looking for something that is not your typical fun center, there are a few great places to consider. The Cascade Family Fun Center is a premier roller skating rink that also has inflatables, video game consoles and arcades. You can either choose from a skating party or a bouncing party. Both have food, drinks, a party room and help with the preparations. For a state-of-the-art bowling party experience, Bowlmor Lanes will host kids birthday parties. It has gourmet food fit for kids, high quality bowling lanes and a signable bowling pin for the birthday child. Area 51 in Roswell, 23 miles from Atlanta, is a large fun center that has party packages including a featured film, a round of mini golf or both.
Unique Entertainment Venues
Your kids may enjoy a fun show for the party. The Center for Puppetry Arts in downtown offers birthday accommodations. Your party will have exclusive seating for one of the center's shows, a build-a-puppet workshop after the show and a private party room. Another option is to let Circus Camp host your party. It has trained circus performers that will provide entertaining instruction in the aerial room, a private party area and help with the cleanup. American Girl in Alpharetta, 25 miles outside of Atlanta, has party packages especially for girls featuring crafts, tiaras, a meal, games and goody bags.
Educational Venues
The Children's Museum of Atlanta has a party package that includes a full day of play at the museum. It has numerous hands-on exhibits such as riding tractors, farm toys, a traveling exercise, a painting wall, tool discovery and a book center. The party will consist of juice, pizza, a party room and a host. For a party with the animals, Zoo Atlanta will host your party. It provides tables, decorations, catered food and zoo admission with add-on activities such as animal encounters, splash fountain, face painting and crafts. 25 miles outside of Atlanta in Duluth is the Southeastern Railway Museum. There you can rent a party pavilion or even have your party in an authentic rail car.

Amanda + Keith [Engagement]
by Keith.
Amanda had always thought that I would be her wedding photographer. That was, until she figured out that I would be her groom. So, then, it was the least I could do to at least attempt to do our engagement photos. We're both pretty happy with the results.
If you're curious how we did it, the crucial element was one of these: a wireless trigger. Of course, coupled with a tripod. I would frame the shot with Amanda in place, imagine where I would be, set the focus on her and lock it into manual, then get in the shot and hit the trigger. If anyone would be interested in me going into further detail about this, hit me in the comments. I won't just blab if you're here for the photos.
Speaking of which, here they are. Our engagement photos.

Emotional, light, different
The One Who Saves Me.
Caleb Lakes and Andrew Thompson became best friends when they were barely teenagers, spending summers together at Andrew's family's vacation home. Over the years they developed a bond based on friendship and trust. As the years go by there is one constant in each man's life, each other. They seriously re-define the term 'friends with benefits' and are a rock for each other through jobs, moves, break-ups and family drama. And then one look at a New Year's party changes just one thing, their commitment to each other.
I first listened to this audio book about two years ago, the version that was narrated by Paul Morey. While the narration for this book wasn't bad, it wasn't Paul Morey, so I had a hard time giving Andrew Collins a chance. Once I let my perception shift, I was able to enjoy Collins narration. He does a good job with changes in tone and inflections from one character to another, and he really conveyed the emotions of the characters well.
The story is told almost like reading from a journal of Drew and Caleb's lives. Spanning over more than a decade, the reader is taken on a journey through summer vacations, college, emotionally absent parents, boyfriends, break-ups and much, much more. The two of them continue to live their separate lives, but they always have time for each other. I think that Drew probably realized he wanted more from his relationship with Caleb before Caleb did, and that was fed into the story through the tattoos and piercings Drew got every time another guy bit the dust, because he couldn't compare to Caleb. The passion and angst were palpable, but rarely was there awkwardness. In fact, when things did become awkward was when they finally figured out that the reason neither of them were lucky in love, was because their heart had been given away long ago.
What I enjoy about this series is that there is a connection between the books and characters, but not in a way that they must all be read or read in order. The story is sexy, emotional, occasionally intense but light-hearted when it needs to be. Definitely worth your time in my opinion.

Friends to lovers
Told in alternating POV, this is a friends to friends-with-benefits to lovers story with most chapters bringing a new year in the lives of best friends Andrew Thompson and Caleb Lakes. They've always had an unconditional love for each other, sharing all their firsts including their first kisses and all their first sexual moments.
I really enjoyed Alexander Collins' narration. Though he doesn't do a huge difference in the Andrew and Caleb's character voices, he does a good job overall with the tone, pacing, and other character voices.
The genuine love, respect and affection between Andrew and Caleb is so wonderful to witness.
Unfortunately, there's a period in the story where miscommunication comes by to play.
Thankfully, their relationship gets back on track. Once they begin communicating, and sleeping with each other again, the story realigns and I was happy again.
This friends to lovers story has humor, romance, hot sex, and lots of wonderful feels.

The awards presented by the Food Group are currently under review.
The Food Group awards two medals, Senior and Junior. Both medals were originally awarded annually. After 1998 they were changed to biennial awards, alternating Junior and Senior.
The aim of these awards is to encourage and recognise excellence in the application of the chemical sciences to food. There are many challenges for chemistry in the food industry and the Food Group aims to encourage first class scientists to enter the field of food chemistry by the awarding of Junior and Senior medal.
The Food Group committee is now seeking nominations of deserving candidates, in both Senior and Junior categories for the 2013 Medal Awards.
The nominations form should be completed and returned to the Secretary, Food Group c/o RSC Networks Team not later than June 30th 2013. Please mark the envelope "Confidential- Award" on the top left-hand corner.
Nomination forms should be accompanied by:
- a concise statement justifying the suitability of the nominee for an award and
- the name of an appropriate independent referee who is familiar with the nominee's work.
In the case of the Junior Medal the period of work reviewed should cover the preceding 5 years. For the Senior Medal, evidence of a substantial contribution is required, normally involving a minimum of 15 years in the field.
The Awards Sub-committee will require a curriculum vitae of each candidate and reprints of papers, copy of thesis or other written work of similar standing to support the candidature. The Sub-committee may also seek opinions from third parties in addition to those of the nominator and proposed referee.
Food Group Junior Medal
The Junior Award will be made for the most meritorious contribution to food chemistry on the basis of published papers and/or other documentary evidence over the preceding five years.
Food Group Senior Medal
The Senior Award will be in recognition of a substantial contribution to food chemistry over at least 15 years, including work of exceptional merit which has led to advances in food chemistry of practical significance to the food industry.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Starting a Lawn Care Business' started by RScapes, Nov 28, 2012.
Great story-especially the investment of time with the family!
Thank you sir for the tips.
I spoke with a homeowner who has 3 acres of mowing. Haven't looked at it yet, but will look soon. He said it was flat with only a few small trees. The property is only 10 minutes from me. Unless there are surprises that I may not have been made aware of, how would you suggest a solo operator price this (using the 52" Toro walk behind)?
I personally don't cut large properties, I stay under 1 acre. I did grow up running a local tournament softball fields organizations, although I still haven't been able to get their contract because a large company whom I am friends with hasn't raised their price in 5 years. They charge $400 per cut for 7 acres and that is dirt cheap. The minimum you should try to charge is $45 an hour, according to this site. I would say that you would most likely be around $200, on flat, smooth(fast) ground.
Everyone will tell you a different price, those are good starting points and figure out what you need to do. I use to always use google maps to see the property before I drive there so I have an idea what I am going to be looking at, now that I have this measuring site it's even better.
Use this site to measure your properties, don't forget to subtract house and driveway. 43,560 sq ft per acre.
This is were you need to start considering your area and intended clients. The nice part about this type of account is you only would need a few of them. You are not going to do more than 2 in a day like that. The downside is that if someone stiffs you than you stand to be affected more so than if you were doing all $50 lawns. Another benefit is reduced drivetime. It takes a while to get a route that is tight and efficient. A lot of guys lose hours in the day driving between accounts. A 52"WB is not great for 3 acres, but will work. The thing is do you want to setup for acreage accounts or do you want to deal with smaller lawns in the inner parts of town. With 8 of those large accounts you would be working 30-35 hrs a week and sell about 40K in the season. (See above, this is not your personal net which will be significantly less than this number.) Those accounts typically pay less per square foot than smaller accounts. If you could get $180 per mow would be acceptable for your setup, but if your area is saturated than expect the soliciting offers to be about half of that. Best bet is to talk to the client and see where they are at with budget, needs, etc.
Thank you sir!
Yes this this is one of my target areas for clients. In a perfect world, my first spring, all of my accounts would be here, just 10-15 minutes away. But......I know that won't be reality, at least the first year. It is however, part of the 2 or 3 year goal/plan.
With that said, in order to get established in that area, should I price slightly lower (at least for year 1)? The neighbors would see my sign, see the work, and hopefully hear positive things from the initial clients with the goal of attracting more clients in the target area? This area consists of homes in the ($230 to $400,000 range) and lots from about 1 to 4 acres.
In this area, the economy, competition, do it yourself homeowners with their own quality equipment, etc., puts this 3 acre job (mentioned above)in more of the $75-$95 per mow range (from what I am hearing).
Thanks for all of your advice!
Perhaps than you should reconsider that account even it potentially stands to be your first. You are looking at 4 hours to mow if the grass is decent quality. Grossing sub $25/hr will lose you money real fast. You would be better getting a job at the local box store.
The other thing is the neighbors will see your sign and they will see your work, but whether they call will depend more on your appearance than not. By that I mean if you appear inexperienced, new, or hacky you will draw in the snakes, if you appear professional, and dare I say expensive you will get far less solicitations but the quality of them will be far greater. I'm not sure that there is a lawn in this country that has not been solicited, and if your area is saturated than they get many and know exactly what the potential range is. If you go in low to be low than you will have a very hard time raising prices later. Furthermore, most quality clients will already have a service and generally will not entertain low offers. This leaves the bottom clients to fill the low priced route. These clients are the late payers, PITA's, and cut me every 2 weeks every 4 in the summer type. It is hard to make a living on these types of clients.
Now if you are lower than the competition because you are lean and efficient than that is a good thing for you. This is not lowballing. The trick though is to know exactly what your costs are. For example you can cut the neighborhood for $40 a lawn because you are already there if you have enough. Those same 10 lawns spaced 5 miles apart each would need maybe $50 to net you the same because of lost time due to travel and fuel, etc. Lowballing is if the market price is $100 and you come in at $50 knowing it is below cost to force out the competition. Sometimes this happens with inexperience as well. Some people seek these contractors because when the company goes under there will always be a another new guy to take their place. I suggest you stay away from this all together.
Rscapes send me a PM with your email address if you want me to look at your business plan or budget. I'm checking out here.
Use the link I sent you to make sure it's 3 acres, because a lot of people say one size and it's really another. I know several of my customer's would rather see a properly dressed landscaper with nice equipment mowing their lawn, but their are plenty of people who just want the huge company with 3-4 hispanics on a crew and they are in and out of there in 45 minutes.
It's all about figuring out what your client is looking to get out of his landscaper. Does he want someone who is gonna cruise over his lawn and just get it done? Or does he want someone who does that extra step to make sure everything is perfect and the weeds are out of the mulch beds and that a piece of paper isn't run over in the yard?
Who says you can not have both?

While 10 members of France's women's soccer team were hoisting a Champions League trophy back in May, Canada's women's team was training in virtual seclusion in Rome.
The Canadians arrived at the FIFA Women's World Cup riding high hopes, having spent four months in Italy training, bonding and soaking up the Azurri soccer culture. But when the World Cup whistle blew, it became abundantly clear the one thing missing was games, say the players.
"It's something we have to go back and look at obviously," said veteran goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc. "We thought coming out of preparation that we did the right thing, so we have to go back and look at it. Games are great and also time together is great so you have to find the balance.
"I'm sure our coaching staff will figure out what's best for us for the Olympics and Olympic qualifying hopefully down the road."
The sixth-ranked Canadians were expected to at least make it out of the group stage but were crushed 4-0 by seventh-ranked France after losing 2-1 to Germany. The French, whose roster includes 10 members who play together year-round with Champions League winner Olympique Lyon, maintained their poise. The Canadians just looked panicked.
Coach Carolina Morace groused after the game about the lack of a Canadian pro league that realistically isn't happening any time soon.
There is no underestimating the value of regular games, the players said. There's no way to reproduce crowds of thousands, and no way to practise keeping your cool when everything's on the line.
"We as players, we want to be together more but we want to be together in an environment where we can play more games, where we are comfortable with being a goal up, being a goal down, just dealing with those things that are part of soccer," LeBlanc said.
"That's one of the things we recognized we need to get more of."
Captain Christine Sinclair was one of four Canadians who opted to remain with her WPS club team rather than attend the entire Rome camp.
"Obviously we don't have the ideal situation," Sinclair said. "I think we were the only country for the most part that did a residency heading into this World Cup, and ideally your players are playing in some sort of league close to home, and your coach can monitor how players are doing."
The camp model appeared to be working, lifting Canada to a record of 10 wins, a draw and two losses this year. But most of those games were friendlies played in front of a mere handful of people.
The Canadian Soccer Association lists attendance for last month's win over South Korea at 50 people. Versus the Netherlands and Switzerland: 25 spectators. A pitiful crowd of 15 saw the Canadians beat Scotland at the Cyprus Cup.
"You can see it on the field, they have the chemistry, they have the game fitness, they know how to win important matches," midfielder Kaylyn Kyle said of France.
It remains to be seen whether a similar camp will be held leading into the Olympic qualifying tournament in January in Vancouver, where Canada, the United States and Mexico will be the favourites to clinch one of the two berths up for grabs.
But with one World Cup game remaining — the Canadians play No. 27 Nigeria on Tuesday in Dresden — now is not the time to "sit down and gut it out," LeBlanc said.
"In a week from now we have to sit down and look in the mirror and ask, what do we have to do differently to make this better?" the 'keeper added. "All these questions you've asked, we've asked ourselves. This was disappointing on many levels."
Morace, who fought long and hard with the Canadian Soccer Association for control her team — at one point announcing she would resign after the World Cup — said the Rome camp was necessary for a program that doesn't have a domestic pro league to fall back on.
"If we don't have a league I can't see another solution," Morace said. "The solution is to stay together and play more games, but to do this, we need money, it is a problem, and you have to consider also, it's a lot of sacrifice to do that, for the players, for the staff. .."
Germany, Norway, Sweden, and Italy all have professional leagues. Plus, the U.S. has the WPS, which Sinclair, Candace Chapman, Sophie Schmidt and Kelly Parker all play in.
Canada has eight squads playing in the 27-team W-League, but that circuit is semi-professional and just runs through the summer.
"I've played in the W-League [Ottawa Fury], but financially if I wanted to continue playing I had to leave, and that's too bad," said veteran midfielder Rhian Wilkinson. "I'm a proud Canadian, and I think it's sad that I can't play at home.
"I don't know if [a domestic league] is realistic, and I don't care. As a soccer player, I'm just saying it would be nice to play at home."
Wilkinson, 29, played for five years in Norway.
The 31-year-old LeBlanc has criss-crossed North America playing for five different pro teams.
"It's tough to say that it's tough because we are living our dreams, but I haven't lived in one city for more than maybe a year or two," LeBlanc said. "That is the difficult part. It's tough because you don't have that base, you're chasing your dreams and you have to sacrifice a lot for it, hence us being in Italy for so long."
The Canadians wrap up their heart-breaking World Cup campaign Tuesday in Dresden, where the persistent drizzling rain and cloudy skies over the past two days have matched the players' moods.
"Obviously we're still a little bit down about everything that's happened," said Jonelle Filigno. "I think this game is really a game to prove to our country and the world and mostly to ourselves that we're so much better than that, and we're so much more capable than what we showed on the field."
The team sat down to watch the video of the France game.
"Not one of my favourites, but we took what we could from it," said goalkeeper Erin McLeod. "I know right now it's very easy to be negative, it's hard to be positive, but you're tested when you're at your bottom."

yes we're already about the release the HV settings for all the PowerLabs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but on the battery side of your comment...............please don't compare Panasonic/Samsung to RC Hobby lipo factories. Even Panasonic can't get consistant capacity from their 435HV cells without cathode material cracking under 1C rates. I know this as I work with them on a million pieces order now from their Shanghai facility.
On a safety clause most LiPO cells should be able to charge to 4.8V without blowing.....BUT......if there is an internal impurity in the cell it may blow up at a lower voltage.
Guys like ATL in China are working on 4.60V now for the likes of iPhone and Samsung but for super high rate RC 60C applications...............I'd pull back the charging V if I were you on RC cells mainly for safety reasons related to the purity of manufacturing, not the specific safety limits itself.
Thanks for reply, and I can agree with you. I was just talked about industrial grade cells because I am "not standard" user of Powerlabs. In our applications there is in the first place specific energy of batteries and 1C rate is "goddamned current" in here. So, we do not use Li-Pos, because their specific energy is poor when compared to the modern 18650 NCA chemistry cells. Yes, Panasonic makes industrial HV cells too, but these are not the best from their product range. They can do better job with "standard" 4,2V cells with higher capacity. But the new LG and Samsung cells are now 4,35V only.
As John mentioned in previous post, support for LiHV chemistry is currently in the works for CP10XP. I'm hopeful we can make it available within 2-4 weeks from now.
As for the original CP10S supporting LiHV, sorry, but we do not have plans to update the CCS or firmware for that discontinued model.
How much time we will need to wait?
OK, so I upgraded the firmware on my PL8 to v. 3.32. When I go through the screens, I do not see any new screens for HV batteries. So, how do I actually use the PL8 for HV batteries? I did order a couple of HV's which should be here in a few days, and I would like to understand how to properly charge them. Sorry to be so dense, but I need help on this one. Oh, and I want to charge them at the field without a PC/CCG software- using the PL8 only. Thanks a lot
You have to load the new presets from the CCS with a PC attached. Once loaded, you can use them at the field without a PC connected. In the CCS, with an open preset select, go to the file menu and select FMA default presets. Then select Open File to Preset #. The new presets are in the LiHv folder.
Hey, Gregor99-- THANKS A LOT!!! With your help it was straightforward. Now when I run through the presets, it shows HVBlend435 as an available preset.
Got to love RC Groups. All the folks who are able and willing to help makes life easier for dumb people like me. Appreciate it. Now I can charge my batts to fly in my Freewing F-16 this weekend. I am hoping that the extra uumpph will get it off the grass quicker.
Hey, another question for the group- maybe Gregor can answer this one as well. As I look at this new HV battery deal, I am gaining over a cell basically going with these batteries. Tell me if I am incorrect here;
Standard 4S battery = 3.7 x 4 = 14.8 volts
HV battery = 4.35 x 4 = 17.4 volts
17.4 - 14.8 = 2.6 volts
2.6/3.7 = 0.7
So, in my feeble mind, I am gaining the equivalent of 70 per cent of an additional cell.
Accordingly, if I run 2 cells in series for 8S, I would be gaining and additional 1.4 cell equivalents. Is this thinking correct? Almost getting something for nothing as the HV cells quoted weight would be the same in an 8S setup as the single nanotech 8S I am now running ( less connector). Sounds too good to be true, but I can see that a change in battery chemistry might allow this to be reality.
Inquiring minds want to know !!

Jennings out to honour Howley with a special win in Donegal
If there was one event this year Garry Jennings wasn't going to miss it was tomorrow's Donegal Harvest Rally. Not only is it his final fling of a not so special season, but it represents an opportunity to pay tribute to a friend and business associate.
Now renamed in honour of Martin Howley, the Donegal rallying stalwart and fisherman who died earlier this year, it was launched alongside his super trawler Atlantic Challenge and returns for the first time to his home port of Killybegs.
It is the final round of the Irish National Championship and, although the series is already settled with new champion Roy White opting to rest on his laurels, Jennings and many more - including fellow Tarmac champion Declan Boyle - will be in the line-up.
Starting, too, will be Manus Kelly, surprise winner of the Donegal International back in June, who will be bidding for an unprecedented hat-trick of just three appearances in a WRC Subaru and three victories.
All of them have long associations with Martin Howley, oil distribution company boss Jennings supplying fuel for the trawlers, and all of them are keen to be part of a rally which will commemorate his contribution to motorsport in Donegal.
It won't detract from the competitive element of a rally which pitches three of the most successful drivers in Donegal events against each other. All three are Donegal International winners, Jennings and Boyle past winners of the Harvest Rally, while Kelly upstaged them both with his out-of-the-blue June victory.
Jennings' last appearance was his abortive R5 Mitsubishi Mirage outing at the Ulster Rally in August, but tomorrow he is back on board his Tarmac Championship-winning S12 Subaru to take on Kelly and Boyle, who has won four national rounds this season in his WRC Ford Fiesta.
They top a 160-strong entry list and they will head out from Killybegs along the Wild Atlantic Way from 9am.

Dresden meets the Matrix
I totally consider the audio edition better than print only because these days most people are so busy just trying to make ends meet that reading print is a luxury. However, the performance was well done and ease to follow as I did other tasks while listening.
How the trebuchet scene ended.
Before I had only read his printed work or had my text to speech program Ivona Reader, read it to me while I did artwork.
The reality of perception!
Once of the aspects I have always enjoyed about Phil Blood's writing is that he is a world creator and the rules of reality are always unique and well thought out. This book was a joy to listen to with plenty of twists, turns and a lot of humor. I also got a kick out of all the pop culture references. I look forward to listening to the next installment in the series. I am hooked!
- Tobias
A very entertaining audiobook
This is an extremely well done, very funny, contemporary fantasy novel, with a full cast where every actor fits the character they are portraying, you will rarely find yourself wanting to put it down. If you enjoy the Dresden files, you will really enjoy this novel. The main character is a bit of a funny jackass with many memorable scenes, you will find your self constantly laughing at the scenarios he is put through with a slew of friends.

Two Canton families hosted Japanese students last summer as part of Explore Japan, a Milton-based summer exchange program for Japanese and American students age 8-16.
Two Canton families hosted Japanese students last summer as part of Explore Japan, a Milton-based summer exchange program for Japanese and American students age 8-16.
Diana and Edward Shepherd-Jury of Canton hosted 16-year-old Yuki Tsujino. Their daughters, Dejah, 16, and Eva, 7, participated in the program.
"My family has been positively changed because of Explore Japan," Diana said, "and we will always be appreciative for the opportunity."
Another Canton family, Cairra and Justin Germain, and their three sons – Quentin,13, Ja-cai, 8, and Tyler, 6 – hosted 15-year-old Kazuki Okumura last summer.
"Kazuki taught Quentin and his brothers words in Japanese and we spoke English to Kazuki to help strengthen his English," Cairra said. "The daily camp experience allowed Kazuki and Quentin to enjoy cultural activities and fun field trips, events that I have not been able to take Quentin to."
In the 20-year program, boys and girls from Japan visit host families in the south suburban area for two weeks.
The program, which begins in late July and runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, is seeking host families. It is held at Milton High School (for girls) and Pierce Middle School in Milton (for boys).
Activities include workshops on Japanese language, arts and crafts, cooking, martial arts, calligraphy and a variety of interesting cultural exercises, as well as a number of field trips. Last year's field trips included a Red Sox game, the Museum of Fine Arts, a Boston Harbor cruise, bowling and an afternoon in Harvard Square.
More than 60 host families from the south suburban area took part in the 2012 program.
There is no charge to host families and their children, or for their activities during the two weeks.
For an application, visit www.americanlearning.com or call 781-828-2800.

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
bug? in version 0.3.6 in layout 1+2 there is no statusbar at the bottom!
i would really like to see the windows-7 statusbar.
since years i am using q-dir mostly in 2 window 2 treeview layout and in wde i find it
very disruptive to move the mouse cursor to the right of the adressbar to go one level
up or to root.
i think it should be on the right side of the forward-back button. why? it is much less
strain on the hand to move the mouse / cursor to the left side, try it yourself, and it is
especially so if one uses a trackball (for the fingers, for thumbs i have no experience).
windows-7 default icons would be nice as the possibility to change the adressbar to
the new vista/windows-7 one as she allows very quick navigation.
a possibility to make it the default file explorer.
the first time i open windows double explorer i liked it. the design and the tabs whitch
is a better approach then 4 windows in one as in q-dir. and would like to use it as
thanks for your work
