Arsenal utility player Eboue joins Galatasaray
ISTANBUL (Reuters) -- Galatasaray have signed Ivory Coast international Emmanuel Eboue from Arsenal on a four-year contract.
The Turkish club said in a statement on Tuesday that the 28-year-old would cost a transfer fee of 3.5 million euros ($5.05 million).
Eboue must wait for his debut after the start of the Turkish season was put back to Sept. 9 due to an ongoing investigation into league match-fixing allegations.
Galatasaray are not in Europe this season after they finished eighth in the top-flight last term, 36 points behind champions Fenerbahce.
Eboue, who joined Arsenal from Belgian club Beveren in January 2005, can play in defence or midfield.
He made 214 appearances for the London team and was an integral part of the defence which kept a record 10 Champions League clean sheets en route to the 2006 final in Paris where they lost 2-1 to Barcelona.
Eboue featured in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Edit: Read about Week 1: Food here!
A couple of weeks ago I read this book: 7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess by Jen Hatmaker. It was an awesome kick in the pants, a sort of Shane Claiborne for non-hippies (no disrespect Shane, I just don't like big, billowy earth-toned clothes). In it, the author embarks on a journey of cutting through excess in order to live a more kingdom-like life, one where she knows the needs of the poor (and the poor themselves) and becomes an active partner in meeting their needs. Pretty wonderful stuff. The book is written almost like a blog, and is very relatable while still being extremely challenging. As someone who experienced a similar "conversion" from safe (and doctrinally focused) Christianity to a life spent wrestling with issues and living on the fringe, I related to the moments of grief, righteous anger, selfishness, insanity, and humor that inject the stories of her months spent "doing without". Please, read this book. I have a copy, my mom has a copy, my best friend has a copy. Just ask!
So . . .
Lent is coming up. Before I even read 7 I went off Facebook, and halfway through reading the book I had already given away half of my clothes (and that of my small family) and made a commitment not to step inside a thrift store for the month of February (which is where we buy all of our clothes now, but it still seems like we are buying in order to do or be someone). But I have this nagging feeling like all of this tension in our hearts is coming right around the time we are supposed to set aside the things that distract us and anxiously await our redemption in Christ.
And thus: The Great Lent Experiment (aka our own "mutiny against excess") was born.
My friend Haley and I were talking and we thought it would be cool to approach Lent in a more holistic way–targeting different aspects of our lives that we would like to submit to Christ. We put together a skeleton of an outline which we hope to flesh out here in the next couple of weeks (for all the non-high-church spazzes like me, Lent starts next Wednesday, the 22nd). Using the elements found in 7 (the book), we are taking a long cold look at the following areas: food, possessions, media, spending, and stress (in the book Jen also targets clothing and waste, but we put clothing in with possessions and live in the Pacific NW where recycling is like breathing).
And we want you to join in. Take a deep breath, and be prepared to have our hearts change as we slowly make our lives look a little bit more like Christ.
In order to make it more do-able, we will target each area for a week. If you feel so inclined, feel free to abstain from certain elements (buying new clothes, eating out) for the entire 6 weeks of Lent. We chose 5 categories, but there are 6 weeks of Lent. Feel free to build in "cheat" days (for a birthday or some other reason), or use the last week to go back and refocus on an area that still needs to be worked on in your life.
There is no condemnation and judgment if you don't want to participate (or if you break the "rules"). Rather, we are approaching this as an exciting time to break free from the tyranny of endless consumerism that is the hallmark of the modern American dream. We are excited for creating the space for God to move in our hearts by giving up of our time and resources. We are excited to model our lives to look the kingdom of Heaven, and to invite others to participate.
Confession: I have always been really "bad" at Lent. For the first time, I am super excited about all this. I think being in a community of people who are talking and praying and fasting together will really help. So, if you would like to be a part of this experiment in any way, please leave a comment letting me know. Also, if you have any ideas on prayer/practical fasts, please don't hesitate to add to the content.
So here is the basic outline:
Week one: Food
For this week, focus on how much you normally spend on eating: going out to restaurants, getting coffee, and even grocery shopping. Much of the world is living on $2 a day, but we spend much more than that on a single latte. Commit to limiting your food choices and your spending, and at the end of the week you should have cleared our some space in your pantry and freezer, and also be left with a nice sum of money (which we would then encourage you to donate to people in need).
Practical fast:
No eating out/drinking coffee out
Eat from your pantry/freezer
Limit grocery shopping as much as possible. If this means several dinners of beans and rice, then so be it. Enjoy the feeling of solidarity with the majority world!
Prayer focus:
Pray for those with limited access to food and clean drinking water.
Week two: Possessions:
In this week we will focus on both clothing and possessions. Focusing on reducing our clothes allows us to free from the tyranny of fashion and trying to impress people. Focusing on reducing our possessions will allow us to de-clutter our lives and highlight what we truly need to live in the kingdom of God. Set aside extra time in this week to go through your house and be prepared to get rid of a lot! As we reduce our possessions we should also look to a future where re-using, recycling, and doing without becomes our new normal. Stuff will never make us happy.
Since this is not only about living a more simple life but also doing with less so that others can have more, we would like to do a community garage sale at the end of Lent with all the proceeds going directly to an organization that helps those in need (more to come on the organization at a later time). If garage sales aren't your thing, feel free to donate to a women's shelter or a local clothing closet or better yet–give it to people you know that are in need.
Practical Fasts:
Sort through your clothes (and your families clothes) and reduce by ⅓-½. There is no need to hoard when so many people in America are struggling to clothe their families.
Make a commitment to not buy new clothes for the week (or, for the rest of Lent).
Note: If you do choose to purchase clothes between now and Lent, consider shopping at thrift stores.
Do not buy any new possessions this week.
Commit to weed through your possessions. Tackle different areas on different days. If at all possible, save items for a garage sale. Areas to target include:
Prayer Focus:
Pray for the church to become less materialistic, and pray for Christ's rule and reign in our hearts. Pray for our gospel to become bigger than success, and pray that we would get to know our less fortunate brothers and sisters.
Week three: Media:
We are a culture that loves to be entertained. How much more space for others (and God) can we create by shutting off all of our devices for a week? This will be a great chance to practice old-fashioned community and hospitality. Fill up the silence with good things: worship music, good books, coffee with friends, or just hanging out with your family.
Practical Fasts:
Commit to a week without media: no facebook, twitter, pinterest, television (hulu) or movies.
Limit cell phone and e-mail usage
Prayer: Use this week to focus on communicating with God, allowing silence and a space for listening in your relationship. Use your downtime to get together with other Lenten observers and pray together in true community!
Week four: Spending
This week we will look at all our little justifications for spending money squarely in the eye. By curbing our own spending, we can better identify with our brothers and sisters throughout the world who have little or no money to spare. Limit all spending this week: food, drink, restaurants, entertainment, possessions: put a hold on all them.
Practical Fasts:
Pick one grocery store (preferably local), one gas station, one all-purpose store (obviously if you have bills to pay, you should do that). Don't spend money anywhere else.
Invite people over for coffee, and watch old movies that you already own. Be creative!
This week will be another chance to repent of the idols in our life and to refocus our priorities on the kingdom of God. The Bible is full of passages on social and economic justice that we can look to for encouragement and support as we learn to do without.
Week five: Stress
Use this week as a chance to get rid of stress, and to identify those areas of your life where you are holding on to anxiety. The most crucial element of this week is to find a time to spend in prayer for significant portions of the day. As we learn to relinquish control and let God be in charge, we will no longer let our lives be ruled by stress.
Practical Fasts:
Commit to picking a space for every day where you commit to spend time in prayer.
Pick one day to be a Sabbath for you and your family and find your rest in Him. (Variations on the Sabbath abound–we would encourage a time for prayer and joy and rest and solitude, whatever that might look like for your family).
Use resources like the book of Common Prayer for ideas on when and what to pray.
So, starting next Wednesday I will look at each category weekly and probably write some of my thoughts down on the topic as well. I would encourage you to do the same, no matter what kind of fast you are being called to.

A Recipe For Branding Success
There's a lot of talk these days about the myriad health benefits associated with consuming "pre-industrial" foods. A ton of research and a succession of books, articles, and even films like "Supersize Me," have inspired the rise of a diverse cultural group dedicated to eradicating the chemically colored, flavored, and modified stuff you find packaged on the average grocery shelf.
Amid the crowded cacophony of expert voices on the subject, author Michael Pollan stands out. Like the diet he advocates, Pollan keeps things simple. With his book, "Food Rules,"* the author manages to distill a lot of history and some complex, powerful ideas about food into easily digestible morsels for maximum impact.
Pollan provides an important lesson for anyone working to build a durable, authentic brand that gets noticed in a crowded, noisy marketplace. He keeps his "food rules" short and potent ("If it came from a plant, eat it; If it was made in a plant, don't," and "Don't eat breakfast cereals that change the color of the milk."). He gets right to the heart of his message. He gets heard.
And while it's admittedly difficult to focus and gain clarity on what separates your business from the pack when you're juggling the responsibilities associated with the job at hand, it's essential to take the time to dig deep to define that unique difference, to whittle your message down to its unique essence.
Just as he advocates for honest food with few ingredients, Pollan manages to say a lot with very few words, providing a tasty reminder that simple and real make for a savory combination and can provide the perfect recipe for branding success.
*Pick up the expanded edition of "Food Rules" featuring the wonderful illustrations of Maira Kalman.

The future is all about technology, or at least that's where the salaries are. STEM – science, technology, engineering and math – has been a growing field in the United States for the last decade. From 2009 to 2015, STEM professions grew at more than twice the rate of other professions, according to a U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics study.
As growing demand for math and technology jobs comes to fruition, a few cities have emerged as the best places for STEM professionals. These cities house a wide range of job opportunities for a career field that offers an average annual salary of $87,570, which is nearly double the national average.
WalletHub, a financial website that provides free credit reports, credit monitoring and industry analysis, researched 100 metropolitan areas in the U.S. to determine which cities were the most STEM friendly. It analyzed professional opportunities, STEM-friendliness and quality of life to determine the best STEM cities in 2018.
No. 1: Seattle
Seattle is the No. 1 city in America for STEM jobs, according to WalletHub. This should come as no surprise, as tech giants like Amazon, T-Mobile, and Microsoft all have major headquarters in and around the city. Income levels also follow suit with U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' study: The median household income in 2016 was about $80,000 – almost $20,000 more than the national household median income for that year.
Seattle is also a pretty expensive place to live. Expatistan, an organization that monitors and ranks cost of living figures around the world, ranked Seattle as the 11th most expensive city in the U.S. Monthly rent for a 900-square-foot apartment in a "normal area" costs around $2,000 per month, for example. Despite these higher costs, Seattle offers a lot of opportunities for STEM professionals.
No. 2: Boston
Boston ranked No. 1 in the "STEM-Friendliness" rank of WalletHub's study. The city offers a range of STEM jobs. Technology companies like Kronos, a workforce management company, and Accenture, a digital consulting company, are among the top five employers, according to the Boston Globe. The Globe also reported that pharmaceutical and biotech companies like Vertex Pharmaceuticals and EMD Serono and Millipore Sigma are among the top 25 employers in the greater Boston area, making it an ideal destination for STEM professionals working not specifically in technology.
Median household income in Boston was roughly $82,000 in 2016. The city's cost of living follows suit with its median income. Expatistan ranks Boston as the 9th most expensive city in the U.S., with monthly apartment rent totaling more than $2,000.
No. 3: Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh is a great option for STEM professionals looking to further their careers without breaking the bank. The city ranked significantly below Seattle and Boston at 34 on Expatistan's most expensive U.S. cities list.
Monthly rent for a "normal" 900-square-foot furnished apartment is $931 per month. STEM jobs opportunities have grown in recent years. Energy and industrial companies like Alcoa, PPG Industries and U.S. Steel all have major operations in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh also houses technology companies like Ansys, a company that develops engineering simulation software.
Pittsburgh's median household income in 2016 was $56,063, which was on par with the national average. Despite its lower median income, Pittsburgh will continue to grow as a major city for STEM professionals.
No. 4: Austin
Austin boasts several major tech employers: Apple, Google, Facebook, Cisco Systems, IBM, Intel, Samsung and Oracle all have offices in the greater Austin area. Dell is also a major employer, so STEM professionals will have no shortage of opportunities from a technology standpoint. Median household income in Austin is around $71,000, and Austin ranks 31st on Expatistan's most expensive cities list.
Monthly rent for a 900-square-foot furnished apartment is roughly $1,346, making it a bit more expensive than Pittsburgh but still significantly below housing options in Boston and Seattle. Austin, like Pittsburgh, is growing rapidly, and as it continues to grow, more STEM opportunities will likely arise.
No. 5: Minneapolis
Minneapolis managed to crack the top five best cities for STEM jobs. While this may come as a surprise, Minneapolis offers a multitude of STEM jobs and ranks the lowest of the top five on Expatistan's most expensive cities list. The median household income in Minneapolis in 2016 was $73,231, which is significantly above the $57,000 national median. Cost of living, however, is significantly lower than other cities in the top five – average monthly rent for a 900-square-foot apartment is around $931 per month.
There's no shortage of job opportunities for STEM professionals either. Companies like United Health Group, Target and Cargill all are major employers in the region. Minneapolis may be among the best value cities for STEM professionals to move to.

Despite being illegal according to legal scholars,air strikes have begun against targets in Syria, with the support of Labour MPs acting against a resolution of their own party conference. On this page we'll keep a log of the unlawful RAF airstrikes on Syria. Continue Reading…
Archives For RAF
This is an update on the recent HRI report on the RAF bombing of Zlitan which reportedly killed 85 civilians including children.
According to the BBC (who have avoided reporting that the RAF as the perpetrator):
Almost 48 hours after the first strike hit the cluster of buildings in the countryside to the south of Zlitan, Nato said it had completed its assessment of what happened.
It confirmed it had hit the area, targeting four buildings and nine vehicles at the site between 23.33 on Monday and 02.34 on Tuesday.
The times for the strikes correspond with those given by people in the area.
Nato went on: "We monitored this military compound very carefully before striking."
"Our assessment, based on the level of destruction of the buildings, confirms the likelihood of military and mercenary casualties. The allegation of civilian casualties made by the Gaddafi regime was not corroborated by available factual information at the site."
Now further video evidence has emerged. This is highly disturbing footage and shows body parts and dead children as well as the grief and anger of the survivors and relatives of the dead in the immediate aftermath and at the hospital. It is clear that those helping survivors of the first strike were hit by the second and third strikes.
The bombing of a "staging area" in Zlitan on the night of 8/9 August is confirmed on the RAF web site.
This raid, launched from RAF Marham was a night-time raid using GR4 Tornados as part of Operation Ellamy. The weapons used were either Paveway 4 or more likely Brimstone bombs which cost £105,000 each. As it was a night-time raid the most likely squadron responsible was the 9 Squadron (motto: "Throughout the night we fly" which is based at RAF Marham. (other squadrons based there and include the 31 Squadron, 13 Squadron and 2(AC) Squadron). After the mission was completed the planes involved landed at Gioia del Colle in Italy.
There is more information on the Tornado and the Brimstone thanks to a presentation given by pilot Fl Lt Mark Lawson and Weapons Systems Officer Fl Lt James Cooke of 9 Squadron , who took time out from attacking Libya to give a presentation at the stand of the Brimstone bomb manufacturer MBDA (Motto: "Lock on to MBDA solutions" based at 11 Strand, London) at the Paris Air Show arms fair.
Responsibility for the bombing of a civilian area at night and the inevitable civilian casualities lies with the military leadership of NATO including Lieutenant-General Charles Bouchard and Admiral Stavridis and on the political leadership including William Hague and David Cameron who must have given the go-ahead to an atttack of this nature.
More bombings in Zlitan / Zliten / زليتن
The reaction of the Libyan government spokesperson:
Tweet of UK Chief of Defence Staff's Strategic Communications Officer and Ministry of Defence spokesman on military operations:
At the 9 August NATO press conference, NATO spokesman, Colonel Roland Lavoie, said there had been attacks on two "huge agricultural buildings" with "military tents and temporary accommodation" beside them in Zlitan at 11.30 pm, 11.45 pm and 2.34 am local times the night before.
He was aware of the reports of patients in the Zlitan hospital being ill or dead. He had not yet received a battle damage assessment but there was
"no evidence so far that has reached us that could suggest there have been civilian casualties."
Update 14 August: According to an article in the Eastern Daily Post the NATO planes involved in this raid were RAF Tornados which flew the 3,000 miles of this mission from RAF Marham in Norfolk supported by VC10 and TriStar aerial refuelling tankers attacking what they describe as a "staging post" in Zlitan.
Mohamed and Motez al-Mrabet, ages 5 and 3 and their mother Ibtisam were killed by RAF / NATO bombs in Zlitan on Thurday.
CNN reports that at the funeral Abubakr Ali watched volunteers carefully bury the bodies of his sister and two nephews next to the neighborhood mosque. According the family a third child, Naji aged 8, is in serious condition in hospital.
"This was a civilian home. No army, no military, no Gadhafi forces. It's a family sleeping safely in their place," he said. "This is the protection of civilians."
This follows quickly upon the attacks on the Libyan water infrastructure and on a clinic in Zlitan.
Footage of the reaction of people of Zlitan, relatives and of the victims (graphic):
NATO's regular email update indicates they have hit the following key targets on Thursday:
In the vicinity of Zlitan : 1 Ammunition Storage Facility, 1 Military Facility, 2 Multiple Rocket Launchers, 1 Surface to Air Missal [sic] System . (To which can be appended 1 House, 2 Kids 1 Mother)
Tweet by Maj Gen Nick Pope, the Chief of Defence Staff's Strategic Communications Officer and Ministry of Defence spokesman on military operations, omits any mention of the civilians killed:
Can you imagine if they had been American or British?
An article in The Telegraph reports that there is a strong racial element in the conflict between Misrata and Zlitan, with many inhabitants of Zlitan being descendents of slaves. Human Rights Investigations has reported before on the ethnic cleansing of Misrata and on the Misratan "Brigade to purge slaves, black skin."
The RAF is now acting as the air arm to this ethnic cleansing.

standing at the kitchen sink
gazing at the moon
November 13, 2016
It was a quiet morning walk, early on this Saturday. Boot falls. Mine. Dog tags. Blue's. Subdued birdsong. Weather is coming. Crunch of grass when we sidestepped from sidewalk to avoid ice. I didn't bother to put clothes on over my long underwear, just added my coat, hat, gloves and cowgirl boots. It is a long coat. Will add a big sweatshirt in a sec and go deal with dishes I haven't quite gotten to yet. I hear those annoying crows now. Go roost somewhere else. You are too loud!
March 1, 2014
vivid crazy daisy blooms
and a shamrock plant for luck
are the flora and fauna
keeping me company
in the kitchen
plants hold down the counter top
I hold down the sink edge
elbows propped up
leaning, typing, thinking
as I pause just a moment
to daydream and woolgather
before moving the dirty dishes
along to the dishwasher
as happy voices drift up
my boys are playing in the basement
after visiting the kitchen for food
(thus, the dishes)
Blue dog is alternately napping
and wild front window woofing
'cause the new neighbor
is having a moving party
the street is lined
with pick up trucks
my brother and his son
are coming over later
in this very moment
life is good
thankful and blessed
smiling a l'il brighter
thanks to a bouquet of
vivid crazy daisies
and a shamrock plant for luck
that I've kept alive
for nearly a whole year
I'm still here too
not sure what to do next
never had coffee today
wishing for a nap
January 4, 2014
1. I am over the moon happy that all my dishes are done in this moment.
2. In other news, my shamrock plant from two months ago is still alive. That's an amazing record of live plant longevity for me.
3. The day began cool, gray and rainy, yet now it seems the sun is trying to come out.
May 26, 2013
my dishes are all done
every last one
even though it won't last
I'm savoring this job is past
laundry is next
then perhaps I can rest
for that's the beauty
of Sunday evening

I know what I want to rant about today. I want to shout and yell, name names and point fingers. I want to rail against the idiocy people blather online. I want to post charts, and memes, and bang my head against a wall. I want to stab people in the face for using monikers like libtards or warmongering capitalist pigs. I want to unfriend just about everybody, crawl into a hole, and drink margaritas. But I wont… Because that solves nothing. (Though, the margarita's may help.)
Here is the crux of the matter. We are all a bunch of damn idiots shouting so hard in support of our own team, that we have forgotten the fact that there are no teams. There is just us. White, Black, Green, Brown, Liberal, Conservative, Muslim, Christian, Rich, Poor, Mother, Father, Daughter, and Son. We are all in this boat together, on the same plot of land, and like it or not, we are stuck with each other.
That was kinda the whole point of it all, I think. You know, the part that goes, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
We are all equal, we all have to live together, and we all have different values, wants, and needs. But, we can't all get what we want all the time. We have to compromise, so that maybe in the end nobody gets everything they really want, but at least nobody gets everything they don't want either. That is the way it works, or was supposed to work. People are supposed to sit down together, talk through their differences, and come up with a compromise that serves the needs of the whole, not the few. Not the elite. Not the ones with the biggest pocket books, or the most impressive book of holy rules. The people. All of them.
But you can't sit down and talk if everyone is shouting. You can't sit down and talk if nobody is listening. You can't sit down and talk if you insist that everything is your way or not at all. That is not compromise. That is not democracy. That is a bunch of overgrown friggen toddlers with their fingers in their ears throwing a temper tantrum. That is the death of civility, of governance, of progress.
And you know what, it is all our fault. Yup, I said it. We are the ones that elect bozos to represent us, allow them to pad their pockets, and cheer them on when they take a hard line stance we happen to agree with. We are the ones that scream, and shout, and sling insults at each other. We are the ones that forget, so friggen easily, to get rid of those who aren't doing their jobs. We are the ones that elected them, no matter who you voted for or if you chose not to vote at all. We the people, whether you like an official or not, are the ones who put them there and keep them there. And we are the ones who form up into team, create catchy memes, that threaten to crucify those who cross the lines, those who extend a hand to their opponents and say "Lets put our differences aside and solve this problem."
Believe me folks. There is a problem.
There is a problem when people half of the country looks at the other half as the enemy. There is a problem when people hate their neighbors instead of accept them for their differences. There is a problem when innocent people die at the hands of ANYONE; be it a police officer gone bad, a vigilante shooting at car jackers, a death row inmate falsely convicted, a hospital hit by an air strike gone wrong, or a group of students massacred by another nut with a firearm.
We are the problem. And we will never solve it by putting our fingers in our ears and shouting our points at the top of our lungs.
In fact, there is only one proven way to solve problems. First, they say you have to admit you have one. I don't think anyone in this country, nobody sane that is, will stand up and say that everything is perfect. I don't think anyone will stand up and say that people killing people is a good thing.
So there is a problem. Yay! Step one is out of the way. Moving on!
Here is step two, and its a doozy. Sit down, shut up, and remember that we all have a right to be here. We all have a right to our own life, our liberty, and our pursuit of happiness. We all have a right to our opinion, even though some of us have opinions that are just plain wrong and as stupid as cow farts. You can still have them, it just means you are a idiot. At the end of the day, we all have to work it out, morons or not. Nothing is off the table, we don't all get everything we want, but there are solutions we can craft together.
I am going to point out a guy I know named Lance. He is not a moron, though he and I actually disagree quite a bit in our political outlook. We come from different backgrounds. His father was a mechanic, mine was a gardener. He has lived here all his life, I am a refugee from another place entirely. He has said some things at times that really piss me off, and I am sure I have said some things at time that piss him off too, or make him roll his eyes, or whatever. But the thing I know about Lance is that he loves his family and he is a really smart guy. I mean, he went to school to be an actuary, whatever the heck that is, and he can totally wrap his brain around numbers and figures and such. I admire Lance as a person, even though due to our upbringing and values, we butt heads over ideology. And we have butted heads hard, at least once or twice.
A few days back, I shared to facebook an article I found that listed 8 things that, to me, are totally common sense solutions to the current issue of crazy people getting guns and killing kids at school. A lot of my friends went "Rah rah! Go team go!" and that is alright. It is to be expected. They are my friends because we have common ground. Lance however, did not go "Rah! Rah!" Instead, he made a point of disagreeing with me. But I know Lance. He is not just a talking head on a screen. He is not an enemy. So I asked him, do you really not agree with ANY of this? Are we that broken that we can't even see how this issue affects all of us? Do we not even, as people who live in the same town, have any similarities at all in how we see the world?
His answer: 5 of the 8 things I had posted, things that made total sense to me, also made sense to him.
Whoa! Wait just a danged minute! You mean this guy who disagrees with me, who by the very nature of the game is supposed to be my enemy, and I am supposed to hate him and call him names and he is supposed to do the same with me, agrees with five whole friggen points on that list?
People, that right there is the start of a discussion. That is the way to solve a problem. Listen to each other, respect each other's right to exist, respect each other's right to disagree, and find the commonality. START LISTENING and STOP SHOUTING!* You will be surprised how many similarities we will find with each other.
Too bad Lance and I aren't the ones in charge of fixing the world. It would be like, Boom! Done, moving on. Let's solve world hunger next. But first, a few beers.
It is also friggen awesome that Lance and I aren't in charge of finding solutions for everyone. We are two guys, from the same town, from the same social class, who like beer. We don't represent the entire country, I am sure some people out there hate beer. Seven year olds for instance. And dead people.
But you know who does represent the entire country? The people we elected to do just that. The people at the top who posture, shout, and flat out refuse to sit down and listen to each other. I am not naming names, I am naming a profession. Politician. All of them. They exist to do the will of the people. They exist to compromise and work out solutions. And they are not doing it.
They can't be. Because I flat out refuse to believe that we have to be divided up into teams. That we have to stand by our figureheads no matter what stupid things they do, or think, or shout. Us against them! You against me! We don't have to sit here and be cheerleaders!
It is We the People. We gotta stop playing games and calling names and start making sure that Life, Liberty, and the eternal struggle to find happiness actually means something for everyone. We are a nation of laws, we are a nation of differences, and we can solve our problems without throwing a bloody temper tantrum.
So do it. Or get the hell out of the way and let someone else have a go. Me for one, I am sick of kids dying so that some politician can earn a few votes and companies can make more money. I am sick of people ignoring the problems and refusing to find solutions. I am sick of people clinging to ignorance and hate because to do otherwise might actually make them look like they aren't cheering hard enough for their own team. I am sick of all of us…
So how about that beer, Lance? I think I need one now.
-Gandersnitch Out
*(Yes, I get it. I am shouting in all caps and boldly telling you not to shout. It is humor, go with it. Some of us are just born brilliant.)

With The Environment
With The Environment
OTE acknowledges that businesses with a leading role in Europe are those that combine financial growth with environmental protection and environmental awareness in all aspects of its operation.
In this respect OTE recognizes its responsibility and aims to actively contribute to the mitigation of the global environmental issues, such as climate change and natural resources conservation. In this context, a series of initiatives and actions are being developed, in line with international rules and practices, with qualitative and measurable quantitative goals. OTE aims at decreasing the impact of its operations on the environment, thus contributing to the establishment of corporate environmental responsibility. To meet this objective, an integrated environmental policy and management scheme has been formulated with clearly defined annual improvement benchmarks set each year. At the same time we look for the design and development of products and services that enable our customers in reducing their environmental impacts.

Interested in moving somewhere with a lower cost of living? Not sure which cities are more affordable? The Cost of Living Diaries is our new series where we talk to people who've moved and find out how it has affected them, their finances and their quality of life. Including the nitty gritty details (Why did you move? How much is your rent? Can you have a fun night out without going broke?) that we all really want to know.
Today we're talking to Maggie who relocated from Chicago, IL, to Akron, OH, about how her new city has affected her budget — and her lifestyle.
Name: Maggie
Age: 28
Job in Chicago: Administrative Services Coordinator
Job in Akron: Marketing Manager
Rent in Chicago: $1084 a month for a studio apartment. It was a pretty nice apartment, mind you, but it was still a studio. And nowhere near downtown!
Rent in Akron: $596 a month for a one-bedroom. It also comes with a small storage room, an attic, a patio and a tiny front lawn. It's ten minutes from downtown and it's in the "cool neighborhood."

Transvaginal Mesh Injury
Transvaginal Mesh Injury Attorney College Station
There have been many cases involving injured women who have used transvaginal mesh to date. Since transvaginal mesh became a popular treatment used after vaginal surgeries, women have suffered from internal bleeding, perforated organs, injured pelvises and other severe injuries. Over 4,000 reports have been made to the FDA in regards to injury claims involving transvaginal mesh. It is clear that this product is no longer safe for the general public to use, and women who have used the product should obtain their rightful damages from the manufacturer of transvaginal mesh. Women who have been injured by transvaginal mesh can get in touch with a College Station personal injury lawyer who will help them to resolve their cases as soon as possible.
A College Station personal injury lawyer has extensive experience in handling products liability actions. He or she understands that manufacturers of transvaginal mesh have a standard of care that they must meet. They must research the safety of products before releasing them to the public for use. They must avoid releasing a product that is unreasonably dangerous for use by the average consumer. Also, transvaginal mesh manufacturers have a duty not to sell products in a defective condition. Since transvaginal mesh manufacturers have actually engaged in selling a defective product, they are liable for the injuries of plaintiffs under a products liability action.
In addition, all other commercial sellers of transvaginal mesh may also be liable for the damages of a plaintiff. This means that a hospital may be liable for selling transvaginal mesh to plaintiffs. Manufacturers and other businesses that sell this product directly to consumers will also be held liable. If you have purchased this product from a commercial seller, then you should retain the receipt and any other information that you were provided during the purchasing process. You will need to show a College Station transvaginal mesh attorney all of this information. A transvaginal mesh attorney will be able to determine whether you can proceed in filing a products liability action against the commercial seller.
There have also been instances in which misrepresentations have been made to the public about transvaginal mesh. It is not uncommon for manufacturers to offer false statements to the public concerning the safety of this product. The reality is that hundreds of women have already died from using this product. Many women are counseled to go forward with receiving an operation that involves the use of transvaginal mesh, because they believe that the product is completely safe due to these misrepresentations. If you were swayed to use this product as a result of misrepresentations made to the public, then you should contact a College Station personal injury lawyer to determine whether you should file a lawsuit.
By filing a lawsuit against the manufacturer of their transvaginal mesh, plaintiffs can receive damages for the injuries that they have suffered. They will not be responsible for paying the medical bills and medical equipment expenses that have arisen due to the use of this mesh.

Our department Transnational Legal Studies is characterized by a group internationally oriented scholars fascinated by questions related to law and globalization. For long sovereign nation states created laws, governed, and judged. Due to international treaties, part of sovereignty was given up. The transnational European Union was a next step, and enforcement as well as relevance of sovereignty is further complicated by the inherent cross-border internet. Cross-border phenomena like the internet, environmental issues, international crimes, and terrorism ask for regulative regimes beyond the traditional normative regime based upon the sovereignty of the nation state.
By joining of the groups of International law, EU law, and Internet law a unique cooperation on both research and education originated. We do not only consider national, European and international law, but also take into account the role that NGOs, businesses and interest groups play in the development of norms. The emphasis is not only on positive law, but also on the social, economic, symbolic and political dimension of cross border issues.
It is a great pleasure to be part of this group of enthusiastic scholars deeply concerned with substantive issues. As a consequence students really appreciate our courses and our reputation is like our research also crossing borders. We do not keep this inspiring environment only to ourselves, for we are happy to welcome several guest researchers that join us with pleasure and satisfaction for some weeks or months.

Proverbs 4:7
7 The beginning of Wisdom is: get Wisdom (skillful and godly Wisdom)! [For skillful and godly Wisdom is the principal thing.] And with all you have gotten, get understanding (discernment, comprehension, and interpretation).
Lauryn Hill said "If you want the answers, you gotta ask the questions."
Giving up unforgiveness for Lent forced me to
ask the Holy Spirit a lot of "tough questions."
Over the course of Lent and Pentecost
the Holy Spirit has been the epitome of a Comforter.
More than I want to help others and write books ...
I want to grow in my relationship with God...
I want to be who God created me to be...
I want to be a great mother...
Staying whole and open for God to heal me is
paramount in order for these things to be.
The Holy Spirit
lead and guided me into a new dimension of truth.
He answers my tough questions.
His answers gave me peace.
The answers heal my heart.
Peace floods my heart.
I'm so thankful for the Holy Spirit
being a counselor, advocate, strengthener
and intercessor.
He reminds me of a precious truth.
In less than thirty days I'll be divorced.
I entered my marriage a whole person.
I'm leaving my marriage a whole person.
This process hurts but in the pain there is a purpose
Sometimes it hurts more as you heal.
Thankful for the Holy Spirits comfort during the process.
Are you going through a tough time?
Have you asked the Holy Spirit to comfort you through it?
