Havasu Falls – Travel Tip #111
Author: adminThis great place is not easy to reach but it is really worth the trip.
At the bottom of the canyon there is a small village by the name of Supai, and from there you can have some of great short hikes to a set of amazing waterfalls. To reach the supai village you will need to reserve in advance (months in advance) a room at teh lodge (only one it the village) or at the campground located near havasu falls (2 miles away from Supai village) – they never replied my emails so best is to call (and call, and call as they are hard to reach) - here, its better to reserve at least 2 nights since one night will only allow u to get in and out and see nothing in between.
Once you have your nights reserved you need to get to "Hualapai hilltop" (from road 66 you take Hualapai hilltop hwy for 60 miles) you park at the end of the road and start hiking down, 10 miles later you reach the village and from that you can visit the falls (hikes range from 1.5-8 miles)
When you need to hike back it is always good to leave very early as most of the hike is easy, flat and only the 2 last miles back up to the parking area are the tough part – you dont want to do it in full sun, get out of the village with headlights and try to reach your car before 9 AM.
We chose to hike all the way down and back up with small backpacks with only what we really needed for 2 days and water, but there are other ways to get down, either on horses or by helicopter (no reservations, village residence and suppliers get priority over tourists), you can also hike down and have your gear brought to you by horses if you want.

Permanent Committees:Pursuant to articles 22, 23 and 24 of the Legislative Decree No. 55 for the year 2002 on the Shura Council internal rules and after revision of the proposal applications filed by the ladies and gentlemen members of the Shura Council regarding membership of the task specific committees, and following coordination between these applications in accordance with the desires of the ladies and gentlemen the members of the Council and with due regard to their interests and jurisdictions, the Council's Office has decided in its meeting held on 24 December 2002 to form the task specific committees of the Council.
Temporary Committees:The Council may, in case of need, set up temporary committees to study a specific issue and such temporary committee will expire upon expiration of the purpose for which it has been formed, pursuant to the provisions of the second paragraph of article 21 of the Shura Council internal rules.
Friendship Committees:The parliamentarian friendship committees are considered a form of proper parliamentarian communications as they proactively contribute to promoting the good relations with the various parliaments. They also extend solid bridges for cooperation and consideration of the joint issues and developments and creation of a conduit of parliamentarian dialogue and understanding. Therefore, the National Council in the Kingdom of Bahrain embraces the formation of parliamentarian friendship committees for the purpose of boosting the ties of friendship and introduction of the Kingdom's role in all fields in general and the parliamentarian field in particular. Such parliamentarian rapports will contribute to the creation of opportunities amenable to building synergy and coordination of regional and international issue in the parliamentarian circles. Also, the friendship committees constitute a proper venue for exchange of experiences with the countries with long history in democratic life in order to strengthen and nurture the representation practice.
Mechanism for formation of friendship committees: The Executive Committee of the Parliamentarian Section will be tasked at the beginning of each legislative round with the process involving the formation of the friendship committees and distribution thereof among the countries, taking into consideration a number of parameters such as the language and the specialization. The number of the committee members will not exceed 8 members on the understanding that the Executive Committee will prepare a special program on the works and activities of the friendship committees establish their financial estimates. For this reason, it is advisable that the Gulf Friendship Committee combine all chairmen of the committees in both councils or else one of them as may be based on the vision for the committee. Considering the importance of this committee, the Chairman of the committee must be First Deputy of the Speaker of the Shura Council or the First or Second Deputy of the House of Representatives.It is also preferable that the Arab Friendship Committee be headed by the First and Second Deputy of the Speaker of the Shura Council.
A chairman shall be appointed for each other friendship committee based on the academic credentials or age so that such committees will hold not less than coordination meetings in a single legislative round.The Executive Committee will formally approach the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and inform it of the visitation projects, the persons to meet and the issues to be discussed.
Objectives of the Friendship Committees:1- Strengthen relations between two parliamentarian assemblies through acquaintance with the nature of their operations, exchange of experience and information by means of bilateral meetings and constructive dialogues.
2- Establish outstanding personal relationships between the members of the executive authority in the state for the purpose of boosting the ties with the parliaments of sisterly and friendly countries, achieving the greatest measure of cooperation and coordination in the international parliamentarian circles and discussion of the various political, social, economic and financial issues of interest to the two countries.
3- Acquaintance with the existing legislative institutions, aspects of organizational development and civilized and cultural advancement in each country.
4- Mutual acquaintance with the efforts exerted in the service of the issues of mutual interest.
5- Display and explanation of the just causes of each country and support of the foreign policy of the state, which is known by the name of "parliamentarian diplomacy". This is to be done by meeting the leadership of the countries which the members of the committee visit and dialogue with the parliamentarian blocks which contribute to the formation of governments in democratic countries.
Competences and duties of the parliamentarian friendship committees:1- Preparation and readying for the members of the council who participate in the friendship committees formed form other parliamentarian assemblies.
2- Opening a file for each friendship committee between the Council and the other parliamentarian assemblies. Such file will contain the names of the committee members, date of the committee formation in addition to a log of its minutes and recommendations and any other documents related to the committee.

6- Generation of reports and letters related to the activities of the friendship committees in preparation for submitting them to the High Authority.

2- Boost and support the official position and formal diplomacy of the Kingdom of Bahrain.
3- Sign joint cooperation protocols with many countries in a way conducive to realization of the objectives and interests which have positive returns on the Shura Council and the House of Representatives and the Kingdom of Bahrain.
4- Strengthen the ties of friendship and cooperation between the Shura Council and the House of Representatives on the one hand and the various parliamentarian assemblies of the countries on the other hand and coordinate with parliamentarians in the regional, Arab and international parliamentarian circles and organizations.

6- Consolidate and boost the tenants of democracy, freedom, the right of people to a safe and secure life and inculcation of the principles of international peace and security and respect of the sovereignty of the laws.
Mechanism of the modus operandi of the parliamentarian friendship committees:The friendship committees will pay periodic visits to several countries, usually during the parliamentarian recess. Each committee will draw up a work plan and a time table for such visits, indicating the reasons of the visit, the most important topics that the committee expects to discuss and the benefits sought from such visits.At the end of its mission, each friendship committee will submit a detailed report on the visit and the most prominent results attained.

'Orphaned' Baby Animals in the WildAre They Really Abandoned?
Though it may appear that baby animals such as birds, rabbits or fawns, are abandoned, most of the time, the mother is nearby. It is normal for many species to leave their young unattended for hours at a time.
For example, mother deer leave their fawns for up to eight hours before returning to nurse. Fawns do not carry a scent, so by watching her young from a distance, a mother deer helps keep her scent from attracting predators to them.

Mast Brothers Chocolate
Rick and Michael Mast are brothers from Iowa who began experimenting with chocolate making in their Williamsburg apartment. Rick was a former chef at The Gramercy Tavern and Soho House and was able to play with recipes. Together they created a cult following among family and friends before opening their Brooklyn factory and shop. Today their handmade, bean-to-bar chocolate is made in small batches and is revered by chefs including Dan Barber and Thomas Keller for its purity and elegant tasting notes.
At the forefront of the American craft chocolate movement the mast brothers made headlines when they sailed twenty metric tons of cacao beans harvested in the Dominican Republic to New York in a three masted schooner sail boat. It was the first commercial import by schooner to the Port of NY since 1939.
Each bar is 2.5 oz and hand wrapped with exquisite custom papers. Sold individually or in sets of two wrapped with cotton twine.
Almonds – Organic almonds from the Anderson Farm in California headline this classic. Almonds are roasted in Frankies Olive Oil and seasoned with Maine Sea Salt. 73% Cacao.
Stumptown Coffee – Freshly roasted, seasonal coffees are put under the stone with our dark chocolate. Buttery texture with crisp notes of fruit and tobacco. 73% Cacao.
Sea Salt – Our sea salt is from the mystic coast of Maine, created using solar salt houses. This salt puts a magnifying glass to this complex, berry-foward cacao. 73% Cacao.
Cacao Nibs – Cacao nibs are delicately roasted, chopped and winnowed cacao beans. Rustic and refined, a craft chocolate lover's favorite. 73% Cacao.
Crown Maple – Crown Maple Sugar is crafted from the sap of the majestic sugar and red maple trees in the catskills. This pairing pioneers a new American craft chocolate. 73% Cacao.
Vanilla & Smoke – Smoked cacao form Papua New Guinea and bourbon vanilla bean from Madagascar are slowly stone-ground over the course of days and then aged. 71% Cacao.
Papua New Guinea –After harvest, these beans are uniquely smoked. This post-fermentation process imparts incredible flavor; think hickory smoked bacon and aged scotch. 71% Cacao.
Madagascar – This organic cacao is sourced from a single farm in Madagascar's northwest coast. Bold, with notes of blood orange, raspberry and red wine. 72% Cacao.

"It's the most ethereal, beautiful, surprising place on Earth to me," said Day. "These incredibly distinctive mountains were like what kids draw, up and down and up down. They were incredibly green, rich, lush and misty in the mornings."
The hike is so strenuous up the mountain stairs that many visitors hire the local Yao women to act as guides. The women of the Yao ethnic minority group, who are known for their brightly colored clothing and long hair styled atop their heads, helped the crew haul equipment for the shoots at the bottom and top of the hike, and at points along the way.
Australia: Whitehaven Beach, Whitsunday Island
It takes a lot for a beach to impress Day, who is not impressed by the backdrop that most beaches have to offer a photo shoot.
Whitehaven Beach also wasn't an easy spot for a shoot: It takes a 20-minute seaplane ride or longer boat ride to get there, and there weren't any amenities. (Just a handful of the 74 islands known as the Whitsundays have accommodations.) So the team stayed on nearby Hayman Island, another one of the Whitsunday islands and took off at first light for two days of shooting on the white sand silica beach.
"It's quite honestly one of the most beautiful striking and isolated beaches I've ever been to," said Day. "People claim it's the most pristine beach in the world. The water is right off the barrier reef, and it's this incredible shade of turquoise. It's not close to anything. You have to pack in and pack out."
Europe: Seville, Spain
May adored the elegance of Seville, with its blend of Moorish and Spanish culture. While she and her team usually work wearing T-shirts, baseball caps and jeans, she dressed up a bit for the Seville shoots and packed dresses and heels for dinner after work in the capital of Spain's sun-splashed Andalucia province.
"It's an incredibly ornate city," she said. "People are so regal. They get dressed to go out (anywhere). I don't think I saw a pair of sweats when I was there. And everywhere you look there's another shot."
While she had trouble choosing a favorite spot in Seville, she did enjoy shooting in the Plaza de Espana and near the Catedral de Sevilla, the largest Gothic building in Europe. They also did photo shoots with horses at an equestrian school "with amazing white stallions, jumping."
North America: The Exuma Cays, Bahamas
Back to the beach, Day chose a spot where she has worked before to shoot the swimsuit issue's body painting story. She values the Exumas, an archipelago of 365 cays about 35 miles from Nassau, for its privacy and solitude.
"You're not fighting for blanket space on the beach and the waters are perfectly turquoise," she said. "We saw the most glorious sunsets you've ever seen in your life. Every day, the tide would change and look different."
South America: Easter Island, Chile
Visiting Easter Island has been on May's bucket list for some time, but even after landing in the remote island, she wasn't sure she would get her shot. Lots of on-site negotiation went into getting permission to shoot close to the sacred Moai statues, more than 800 of which were carved from the island's volcanic stone sometime between the ninth and 17th centuries.
"Everyone knows about it but they're just getting their hook into tourism, and they've embraced ecotourism," she said.
The differences in topography on Easter Island made for a great shoot: "There are black rocks, deforested planes, the Moai jutting out," said Day. "They've replanted a lot and a couple spots look like you're in Hawaii with white sand beaches. "
It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it.

Dont know if theres somekind of bug, but after all the boooring driving you finally get to a mission where your suppose to pickup some guns.
First of i saw, "Fight your way out" so i thought, ok lets start shooting... but nooo cant do that.. suddenly my mates start shooting at me, so i guess thats not the way to go. I try to walk up to the police only finding myself shot down. Tried to send my guys to kill em all, but nope they got shot and mission failed. So im pretty stuck it seems.

And unlicensed illegal immigrants living in this century city of San Francisco California killed a man with his car but got to stay in the United States.
That is the story of Robert Gallo an immigrant from Honduras who on November 16 2010 -- 25 year old drew Rosenberg with this car.
-- then proceeded to drive over his victim killing him at -- -- Now drew his father has been working tirelessly to get -- deported when he's released from prison on Friday but has found that the laws are not.
On Dallas side.

That it happened that day in 2010 withdrew and mr.
Well my and my son was -- second year law student in San Francisco and he was coming home from school.
On his motorcycle riding very slowly it was rush hour traffic.
Gallo at the last second tried to make a left hand turn and they and hit him in the intersection.
I believe that.
The original collision didn't kill my son they were both going very slowly.
Gallows then accelerated and drove over my son's body.
And he's got stuff he couldn't go for their further because my son's helmet came off and got stuck underneath is will he backed up and drove over in the second time.
And then -- and what I believe trying to escape he then went forward again and only because a very brave.
Personally gotten out of their car and stood in front of his he -- unfortunately his tire was when my son's abdomen.
And five men had to lift the car off and it's just there.
That you son drew was -- five year look yours only was a law student and then with and we mourn his.
Lost mr.
Rosenberg what did the federal authorities tell you after he was convicted.
Of these misdemeanors who's really charged with a felony did they tell you know there's nothing we can do -- he will stay in the United States.
Well Tom if there he was and sentenced.
I approached my a congressman Henry Waxman because I wanted to make sure.
That once Gallo was released from prison he now has -- two misdemeanors.
And under the temporary protective status law which is.
Not the least bit temporary been very protective.
He should be deported.
I'm so I asked their office to contact ice I wanted -- taken into custody the second he got out of prison and then you know go -- the deportation hearings.
They did contact ice in San Francisco.
Which told them no they weren't gonna take him into custody and they -- gonna deport them because as far as they were concerned -- -- only told one person.
And that's only one that crime of moral turpitude.
And his other misdemeanor didn't count.
And his and that's just not -- the -- And what's happened agenda -- -- announced new prosecutorial.
Guidelines by which there is a much higher threshold.
By which people are deported in America -- said that was a political move.
In an election year and frankly we're seeing the effects of what happened to one particular fan of the Rosenberg families they've.
Yeah well unfortunately this this happens to thousands of people a year.
If my son's.
Death was a it was a freak accident and you know didn't really happen a lot I wouldn't be sitting here -- and -- be dealing with -- the best I could but when I started doing research.
And I started researching unlicensed drivers not illegal immigrants unlicensed drivers took me illegal immigrants.
Thousands of people a year held every year by illegal immigrants and driving and unfortunately particularly in California but nationally.
The powers to -- -- making it easier for the drive out licenses.
And Americans need to speak up to the powers that be they can rights agenda -- -- ton of today the legal course has run the political course should begin and it should be justice.
For drew Rosenberg all right Don Rosenberg we thank you very much for Jewish state from LA telling your story.

The City of Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan's Business School will host the Michigan Green Communities Leadership Academy July 16 & 17. The Academy, facilitated by the Institute for Sustainable Communities and sponsored by the Michigan Municipal League, Michigan Economic Development Corporation and Ann Arbor SPARK, will be an opportunity for local government leaders and their regional partners to learn and develop strategies to further green economic development. 18 cities, from Marquette to Detroit, are sending teams of three or four individuals to participate in the event. Those teams will learn about sustainability initiatives in Michigan and across the country that can be adapted and implemented locally. They will learn valuable strategies for engaging the public and communicating about the economic and community benefits of sustainability. And they will build leadership capacity and skills to advance sustainability initiatives together when they return home.
The Michigan Green Communities network is dedicated to bringing unique peer-learning and technical assistance opportunities, such as this Leadership Academy, to its members.

Hang tight!
Recipe by DKLEVINSON
"My mother and I always judge a seafood restaurant by their tartar sauce. Well, here's one that will make any fried halibut jump for joy! It's worth the extra ingredients and fuss."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup minced bread-and-butter pickles
1 hard-boiled egg, forced through a coarse sieve
2 tablespoons minced shallot
2 tablespoons capers
1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried tarragon
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Excellent tartar sauce! I used Hellmen's light mayo and relish vs. chopping pickles. I love the capers in this! This was perfect for beer battered fish!
I made this tartar sauce minus the capers (I didn't have them on hand and forgot to pick them up at the store) and served it with boiled halibut. My dinner party loved the tartar sauce! Even a non-tartar-sauce person loved it! It had a nice tangy and slightly sweet taste, from the lemon and bread and butter pickles, and I think the tarragon just rounds it out so nicely. It made the dinner, I think! I made the recipe as 22 servings, but it served my party of 8 with maybe 2 servings left. Like I said, they loved it. If I ever have the capers I'll have to try it that way, too. Thank you for the tasty sauce recipe!

******* WOW, give me a bigger spoon!! This is SOOO good you don't need any seafood. Since I made this I try to think of something "else" to prepare just so I can have more tartar sauce!
I found this recipe to be good...I feel if I left out the tarragon it would have been better.
My entire family loves this tartar sauce (and I consider myself a connoisseur of tartar sauce i love it so much - ha!). I want to use this on fish tacos too. I may substitute cilantro for tarragon when I do use it for fish. I love the tarragon, capers and eggs in it for a standard sauce. My family insists that this become our standard tartar sauce now. Thank you for sharing your recipe. It's fabulous!

He said he expected a significant response that amounts to "a warning that lays down this time a red line that the president intends to enforce, not one that turns pink."
"It cannot simply be a couple of cruise missiles into a storage shed somewhere," Miller said, adding that the goal was to deter al-Assad rather than topple him or radically shift the balance in Syria at this time. "The president's not on the verge of becoming the cavalry to rescue the country."

June 3, 2003 Years of conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have led to one of the worst emergencies in the world today, with millions of people already dead and thousands of others continuing to die from starvation and disease. Peace deals and ceasefires have not stopped the fighting from continuing and poverty from growing. As this human crisis swells, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is increasing its programs inside the country. MSF started working in the DRC (formerly Zaire) in 1981. Today, more than one hundred international volunteers are working alongside hundreds of Congolese staff to attend to some of the most urgent medical needs, both in the war-ravaged east of the country and in the poverty-stricken west. The MSF teams are often obliged to use all possible means to reach the population, travelling through the jungle by motorbike and canoe when necessary.
Nowhere to HideConflict has raged among armies, rebel movements and proxy militias in the Ituri region of northeastern DRC since 1999, claiming 60,000 lives and displacing up to half a million people. Particularly severe fighting erupted in early May, adding to the grim toll of those being maimed, mutilated, and savagely murdered. The provincial capital, Bunia, has been the epicenter of this recent outburst of violence. Situated next to the Rwenzori Mountains in the lush, green landscape just west of the Ugandan border, the only life in some parts of the near-deserted town were children wielding Kalashnikovs. Since arriving in mid-May, a team from MSF has been seeing more than 100 patients a day at Bunia hospital, with 15-20 requiring surgeries every day. One young boy arrived after fleeing through the forests, bleeding from a gunshot wound. He had escaped a massacre in a nearby village. His parents did not. "Don't forget us," he said from his wheelchair. "Please don't leave us." On the road out of the town, hundreds of people leave daily for points north and south, desperate to escape the brutality. Nearly 50,000 have fled to Beni, while no one knows how many are trapped and isolated in the surrounding forests. More than 10,000 people have erected tents near the UN compound and regional airport, hoping the proximity of lightly armed UN personnel will offer at least a measure of protection. The cramped, unsanitary conditions in the camps have led to cases of cholera. Already, three people have been afflicted by the bacterial infection, and one person has died. MSF constructed a treatment tent in the center of town out of fears that a wider epidemic could occur, and has sent infusions, tents, chlorine and other water and sanitation materials to brace for such a blow.
The frontlines shift, forcing people to perpetually flee the violence and terror. Reaching people affected by this displacement, who have often fled deep into the forest, proves difficult. MSF teams continue their attempts to bring basic health care to these populations cut off from aid. Their living conditions are shocking: they suffer from a lack of food and health care, and are often victims of forced labor and extreme violence, including rape. In eastern towns like Shabunda, where violence has forced MSF teams to evacuate more than once, MSF continues to support the hospital and the health centers. More to the south, in Katanga province, MSF delivers basic health care to IDPs and isolated communities and runs feeding centers for malnourished children. Nowhere to RunAccess to health care is a nationwide problem in the DRC. Even if people overcome the limited transportation and poor roads to reach a health structure, they would discover that many of the health centers and hospitals are not functioning. The country's infrastructure has effectively collapsed, and there is a complete lack of medicines and trained health staff. MSF implements a health zones program in Equator, Katanga and Oriental provinces with the aim of ensuring access to quality health care for more than one million inhabitants along both sides of the frontline. MSF mobile teams travel from one health center to another and stay overnight in villages. Besides getting health posts and hospitals up and running again, this also involves improving the prevention and treatment of malaria, severe respiratory infections and sexually transmitted infections, raising awareness about sexual violence and increasing the measles vaccinations coverage. Measles is a major problem as the vaccination coverage in the country is lower than 40%. MSF has therefore decided to organize measles campaigns in all health zones where it is present.
MSF's Congo Emergency Pool (CEP) has bases in Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Mbandaka and Kisangani and specialises in the rapid detection and response to emergencies, ranging from natural disasters and population movements to the increasing number of epidemics such as measles, cholera and meningitis. On average, CEP conducts over 30 assessments and carries out 20 interventions per year. Currently, CEP is vaccinating 80,000 children between the ages of 6 months and 15 years against measles in Banalia health zone (Oriental province) after it found 507 cases of the deadly disease. Another MSF team will start a vaccination campaign for 30,000 children in Kabalo (Katanga province) at the beginning of June. MSF also pays particular attention to sleeping sickness with a program in Equator province and to the growing problem of HIV/AIDS. MSF runs an HIV/AIDS pilot program in Bukavu, providing voluntary testing and counselling, and treatment of sexually transmitted infections and opportunistic infections. Similar programs are in place in 33 health structures in Katanga province, 15 in Equator province and 47 in Kinshasa. This year, MSF hopes to expand the Bukavu and Kinshasa programs to include antiretroviral (ARV) treatment. |

With a mission to educate skilful, professional midwives and make use of new information technology, the network Nordejordemodern has been able to make the most of the opportunities within Nordplus Higher Education. In total, the network has fourteen partners of which eleven are educational institutions and three are public hospitals. All Nordic and Baltic countries, including the three autonomous areas are represented, allowing the network to reach for another important aim: that their midwifes have the competence to work in an international context.
The project has student-, teacher- and tutor exchange, intensive programmes, network meetings, homepages and curricula and method development. Reports from both student and teacher exchange are available at the homepages of the network.
Here are some of the experiences from the network, written by Eva Matintupa, network coordinator:
The advantages among others are that the different forms for exchange within the network make it possible for the educational departments and faculties to get closer. It also creates opportunities for a better comprehension and respect for differences between the cultures of the countries included, as well as differences and similarities regarding education and profession. The midwife profession is represented by the three public hospitals in the three autonomous Nordic Islands. Getting knowledge in each other's educational programmes and traditions is today extremely valuable in a free common market concerning employment between the Nordic and Baltic countries.
Faculty members can make it possible for the students to acquire this knowledge during their education programme. Valuable bridges between countries and people will promote friendship between the countries. There are examples of students who have returned to their mobility placements as graduated midwives. The linguistic as well as the cultural factor, give a natural closeness in the cooperation with the other Nordic and Baltic countries.
One challenge is the differences in the educational programmes regarding rules, regulations and organization between the countries and the partner departments. This might be a problem when planning student exchanges. Midwifery practice in the educational programmes varies which can result in different expectations regarding competence. A minor difficulty is the different languages and also the dialects that are spoken in different parts of the involved countries.

We learned from Part 1 of "Being a Doer of the Word" that James exhorts us "to be a doer of the word and not a hearer only, deceiving yourself"(James 1:22). Holding up this pearl of truth, James reminds us that "faith without works is dead" and that our faith will be revealed by the works that we do (James 2:26). This brings us to the age-old controversy between faith and works. We will continue with our study of faith and works to see just what the Scriptures teach about this. If you have not read Part 1 of this article it will be helpful to go back and read it before you continue here.
We learned in Part 1 of this topic that one reason for the confusion some people have over faith and works is due to the fact most people approach the Scriptures with a Greek-Western mindset. The Hebrew mindset is altogether different. It views faith as action and finds no contradiction in faith and works because one inevitably flows from the other.
We know that "the Scriptures are inspired by God" and that "holy men of old wrote as they were moved on by the Holy Spirit." It is also important to keep in mind that the Old Testament writers as well as Jesus and His disciples were deeply rooted in the Hebraic way of thinking, which is totally opposite from the mindset of Greek-Western thought. Because most of us are products of this type of educational system, it is easy to approach and interpret the Scriptures with this mindset. This is where the stumbling stone between faith and works comes in and our misunderstanding of it. Paul reminds us that we can be "alienated from the life of God through ignorance," having our "mind blinded" by our old modes of thinking. This is why the word of God is invaluable to "transform" our way of thinking, so that as Paul taught "we can understand what the will of God is." (Rom.12:1-2, Ephes. 4:18).
Two Different Approaches to Leaning – Bible Study James
The Greek-Western approach to learning and life starts with man as the center, acting and interacting with his environment to know himself. This mindset sees education as gathering and imparting facts and ideas,
accumulating knowledge by which we understand and act in the world. Man does his best to perform and seeks to understand himself. Intellectual brilliance, according to Greek mindset can be compared to a fire. It is "ascending," trying to "climb" to conceive and express new insight and understanding. Elaborate theories have been built in this way, only to be proved to be "false," later.
The Hebraic approach to learning is totally opposite from this. Hebraic thinking teaches that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One that is understanding" (Prov. 9:10). The Hebraic mindset holds that God is the center of man's existence. The Hebrew sages say that learning is to be done in deep humility, in a sincere desire to receive understanding. Truth is poured down like water from on high, and it will seek the lowest basin. Once we have received truth, been enlightened, and gained understanding, it as if a "light" goes on. We say, "Once I was blind but now I see. Now I get it." This receiving mode goes for any subject you want to know about. It is the true essence of self-education and the secret of the brilliant wisdom of our founding fathers.
True knowledge about anything comes from God. By meditating on God's word, we have the promise that we can "become wiser than our teachers." This was the secret of Daniel and his four friends in Babylon. Although they were captives from a foreign land, they advance in the kingdom of Babylon, not by compromising with the Babylonians and bowing down to their idols and following their life style, but by meditating in God's word and obeying His commandments.
The Revelations of Daniel
The book of Daniel is a series of the revelations that God gave Daniel while he served in Babylon. When asked to not only interpret the king's dream, but to also tell the dream, Daniel asked God for the understanding. When God revealed these things to Daniel, Daniel worshiped God, saying, "'Praise the name of God forever and ever, for He alone has all wisdom and power. He determines the course of world events; He removes kings and sets others on the throne. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the scholars. He reveals deep and mysterious things and knows what lies hidden in darkness, though He himself is surrounded by light. Thank and praise you, God of my ancestors, for you have given me wisdom and strength. You have told me what we asked of you and revealed to us what the king demanded.' "
When the king saw Daniel's wisdom, he bowed down and worshiped Daniel's God. The king said to Daniel, " "'Truly, your God is the God of gods, the Lord over kings, a revealer of mysteries, for you have been able to reveal this secret.' Then the king appointed Daniel to a high position and gave him many valuable gifts. He made Daniel ruler over the whole province of Babylon, as well as chief over all his wise men" (Dan. 2:20-23, 48:49).
James emphasizes this truth that God will willing supply wisdom to those who ask in faith, believing that they will receive: "If you need wisdom, ask God and He will gladly tell you. He will not resent your asking" (James 1:5).
Ironically, some of the Jewish leaders were not approaching learning this way because they remarked about Peter and some of the disciples, "How do these men know letters, seeing they have never learned?" Then they realized that they had been with Jesus.
For the Hebraic mindset, life revolves around God and His way of doing things in both the Old and New Covenants. It is not until a person submits to God's will and His kingship that he can know God and find himself. The ability to know God is the great promise of the New Covenant – "they will all know Me from the least to the greatest" (Heb. 8:11). Under the New Covenant, through the power of the indwelling Christ, we are raised to become a New Creation, to know God in an intimate friendship, and are empowered from within by the Holy Spirit and to discover truth by the Spirit's revelation.
Hebraic Thought – Faith as "Doing"
All wrapped up in the Hebraic concept of faith is "doing." The word faith is an action verb in Hebrew, it is not a noun. However, the Hebraic concept of "doing" is not the Greek concept of "doing." From the Hebraic point of view, when James exhorts us to be a doer of the word, he is not telling us to try harder to be a Christian. Many people feel that this is what James is asking us to do when the Bible teaches elsewhere that we are saved by faith in the shed blood of Christ. As a result, people try to skip the book of James thinking they cannot possibly live up to his admonitions. Martin Luther, father of the Protestant Reformation, objected somewhat to the book of James believing that because of the incorrect emphasis of the Roman Church on earning your salvation through various works prescribed by the church, people might feel their works would justify them in the eyes of God instead of looking to the finished work of Christ. However, when we approach James' teaching with a Hebraic mindset and compare James' teaching with the rest of Scripture, we will not make this mistake.
Martin Luther put faith and works into perspective. He emphasized to his contemporaries who were deeply steeped in the Greek mindset "we are not made righteous by doing righteous works, but when we are made righteous through the work of Christ, we will do righteous works." This is the Hebraic way of thinking. Because many people approach faith and works with the Greek mindset, they try to perform works as something to please God and gain God's approval. The emphasis is on man from start to finish and his ability to strive to perform and his ability to work for God in his own strength. To get a good look at what this Greek mindset is, let's look at it in its extreme form in Church history.
How the Greek Mindset of "Doing" Affected the Roman Church
During the Middle Ages, before the Protestant Reformation, the Church was deeply steeped in Greek thought and the teachings of Aristotle. At that time books were rare, very few people could read, and most of those who did read had never read the Bible, including the clergy. Because of ignorance of the Scriptures, erroneous teaching and traditions of men had been taught as the way to heaven with the emphasis on the works of man. As one of the most extreme examples of this, at certain times of the year, young men could be seen and heard running through the streets of Europe and mourning over their sins as they beat themselves with chains until they bled profusely, seeking forgiveness for sins and relief for their conscious. This act was considered a spiritual work of penance.
At this time Martin Luther was a priest and Doctor of Theology and Sacred Studies at Wittenberg University in Germany. As a young monk, Luther had the opportunity to briefly study the Bible in a monastery, which was unusual in his day. When the time came for him to put the Bible away and study other books, Luther would steal away to the monastery library to study and memorize the Scriptures. There he fell in love with the word of God. However, because Luther had been a student of Aristotle, he approached the study of Scriptures with a Greek mindset and was blinded from the Truth by human reasoning.
Before Luther was spiritually awakened by a revelation from God that "the just shall live by faith," he had done more religious works in his zeal to try to please God than hundreds of average people. As a priest, he had given up the idea of marriage and family. He writes that although he was perfect in obedience to the moral law of God, he had subjected himself to all kinds of "works" to seek a true knowledge of the forgiveness of his sins and to be made perfect in love. He had worn scratchy clothing to subject his body to suffering. He had made many pilgrimages to pray before Christian relics. He had participated in endless prayer vigils, and according to his own testimony, if a deeper relationship with God could have been gained through fasting, he should have obtained it, because he notes that he had almost killed himself through all the fasting he had done. He admits that he was so involved in doing religious works to find favor with God that he got to the place where he actually "hated God" who had made the Christian life so difficult.
When Dr. Luther was selected to make a pilgrimage to Rome, he hoped that at last maybe there he would find something that would bring him spiritual relief. Walking all the way from Germany was long and difficult. Along the way he cheered himself with the thoughts that soon he would be walking on the very streets traveled by Paul and Peter. He would stand in the Coliseum were early Christian martyrs were devoured by lions and were burnt as human torches to light the city of Rome. Truly he would be on holy ground.
Luther's Visit to Rome – Bible Study James
When he arrived in Rome, Luther found things to be in a sorry state. Priests who performed the mass openly mocked God. Brothels were located near the cathedrals and priests could be seen frequenting them. He saw the pope ride through the streets dressed in military armor returning from battle, looking more like a military leader than a holy man of God. While in Rome, he visited a holy site where special forgiveness of sins could be obtained. Here he bought a pardon for sins. The "work" that was attached to this pardon was to climb a special set of stairs on your knees – 15 years of forgiveness could be obtained, one year for every stair. By tradition these stairs were said to be Pilate's judgment stairs that had been miraculously transported to Rome by angels. These were said to be the same stairs that Jesus climbed to be tried by Pilate before He went out to be crucified.
When Martin Luther was halfway up these stairs on his knees, he was startled by a sudden voice, which seemed to speak from heaven and said, "The just shall live by faith!" Luther stood up in amazement. This was the third time these words had come to his mind since he had been in Rome. This time the words came to him with such faith and power, that it was as if a voice of thunder had uttered them. Now he received a revelation of what this great truth meant. What folly, he thought, to seek an indulgence from the Church which can last me but a few years, when God sends me in His word an indulgence that will last me forever! How idle to toil at these performances, when God is willing to acquit me of all my sins not as so much wages for so much service, but freely, in the way of believing upon his Son! "The just shall live by faith."
Reformed by the Word of God
Luther went back to Germany with a spiritual aim to reform the Church to Biblical teaching. At that time the Roman Church refused his teaching, and the Protestant Reformation began as millions who embraced Luther's message. All over Europe people received the glad news of salvation by faith alone. Luther and many of his followers were either excommunicated from the Roman Church or left it altogether. Many were imprisoned, burned at the stake, and tortured because they believed this revelation. It was this kind of Greek thought about "works" practiced by the Roman Church that made Martin Luther leery of book of James. At the time he became a priest the medieval church relied heavily on the human reasoning and logic of Aristotle to understand spiritual things and everything scholastic. After pondering over the pages of Scripture for many years, Luther realized that trying to understand the Scriptures through human reasoning was an impossibility.
Luther accused Aristotle's philosophy of bringing "a bold and profane worldliness" into the study of theology. The study of divine revelation had been forced into Aristotelian thought forms and definitions. Luther writes, "My soul longs to publicly shame and expose that Greek buffoon. If he had not been a man, I would call him a devil." 2 Luther believed that like Hagar (the works of the flesh), rationalism had usurped Sara's place ( the work of God's Spirit) and that the Church had been taken captive by Babylon. Luther's preaching shook the entire Western world of thinking and believing. He wrote that trying to defend spiritual truth with human reasoning is like trying to "throw light on the sun with a light-less lantern."
Luther contrasts the Hebraic way of learning to the Greek, "For Isaiah 7 makes reason subject to faith, when it says: 'Except you believe, you shall not have understanding or reason.' It does not say, 'Except you have reason, ye shall not believe. " Man's reason is in darkness in regard to spiritual things. However Luther explains, "The understanding, through faith, receives life from faith; that which was dead, is made alive again; like as our bodies, in light day, when it is clear and bright, are better disposed, rise, move, walk, etc., more readily and safely than they do in the dark night, so it is with human reason, which strives not against faith, when enlightened, but rather further and advances it."3
Paul Teaches the Greeks about the Hebraic Way of Learning
This is, of course, affirmed by Paul who told the church at Corinth, that man through his reasoning cannot know God because the things of God must be revealed by the Holy Spirit." Paul tells us that we must listen to the teaching of the Holy Spirit who compares "spiritual thoughts and spiritual words." We must let the Bible define its own terms, not try to impose our meanings upon them. This is why knowledge and study of the Scriptures is so important. We should daily set aside time to study the Scriptures to dig deep into the word of God so that through the pages of Scripture, by the power of the Holy Spirit we can encounter the Truth that will make us free.
Logic verses Revelation
The Hebraic way of learning and the Greek way of learning are poles apart. The Greek way is to analyze truth and facts to come to an understanding of those facts. Greek logic is a step by step logic that argues from premises and arrives at a logical conclusion. It is done in a coherent, rational, logical sequence. Therefore, the conclusion is limited to that point of view and limits that person's view of reality. This reasoning can lead to a better understanding of how things work, but when applied to spiritual truth it can be devastating. The Greek way is for man to trust in his knowledge of things and his predictable way of doing things, rather to put his trust in God. This works out well for some people until their central planing and their predictable way of doing things are met with the unpredictable. Their faith is shaken; they stand on shifting sand.
The Hebraic mindset tells us that God can't be put in a box or charted out in charts. Often, He will do something that is unpredictable. The words of the Lord recorded by the prophet Isaiah explain that God is often a God of surprises: "I am the Lord, who opened a way through the waters, making a dry
path through the sea. I called forth the mighty army of Egypt with all its chariots and horses. I drew them beneath the waves, and they drowned, their lives snuffed out like a smoldering candlewick. But forget all that–it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do a brand-new thing. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? Now I will tell you new things I have not mentioned before, secrets you have not yet heard. They are brand new, not things from the past. So you cannot say, `We knew that all the time!' (Isa 43:6-7; 48:6-7). The Hebrew mind learns to experience Truth, not to just think about Truth. Truth is a Divine encounter. To experience Truth and to walk in Truth is more important than analyzing Truth. If we believe that the word of God is true, then we will act like it is true. Martin Luther demonstrated the very type of works that were the outward manifestation of the faith he held in his heart and that James was talking about. When he heard the voice of God and received the revelation, "the just shall live by faith," he acted upon it that day and everyday for the rest of his life and preached this message to all of Europe. That is the true sense of the Hebraic understanding of "doing."
Paul's View of Good Works
How did Paul view good works? When Paul was preaching before King Agrippa, he told about the works he had done for the Gospel: "One day I was on such a mission to
Damascus, armed with the authority and commission of the leading priests. About noon, Your Majesty, a light from heaven brighter than the sun shone down on me and my companions. We all fell down, and I heard a voice saying to me in Aramaic, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to fight against my will.' "
" 'Who are you, sir?' I asked. And the Lord replied, ' I am Jesus, the one you are persecuting. Now stand up! For I have appeared to you to appoint you as my servant and my witness. You are to tell the world about this experience and about other times I will appear to you.'
"And so, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to that vision from heaven. I preached first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that all must turn from their sins and turn to God – and prove they have changed by the good things they do." (Acts 9:15-16, 26:19-20).
Paul explains to King Agrippa that he was on a mission, not because he thought it would be a good idea, but because God had commanded him to do it. What he was doing was not the result of the Greek idea of "doing," but the true Hebraic idea of "doing" – the result of a Divine encounter and the command of God. Paul explains that all those who have a transformed life and an encounter with God will be "doing good things" that are the evidence of their faith and their changed life. James gives us this same concept: " Now someone may argue, "Some people have faith; others have good deeds." I say, "I can't see your faith if you don't have good deeds, but I will show you my faith through my good deeds" (James 2:18).
A Practical Application of James' Teaching
What about you? Are there good works that God has instructed you to do from the time you have spent with Him. If not, there is some good news – you can start today! Set aside time daily to study God's Word. Worship Him, offer your life to Him to use for His glory, and ask Him for His direction for your life, and what He would have you do. Jesus told His disciples, "You have not because you ask not. Ask so that you may receive so your joy will be made full." Then whatever you hear God speaking to your heart, just step out in faith and go ahead and "do it!"
So go ahead. Jump into our Bible study on the book of James, How to live a Life of Excellence. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you will understand what the good and acceptable and perfect will of God is for your life, and from your faith will flow the good works of God.

Google Search scratches its brain 500 million times a day
Google's search engine is powerful, but not all-knowing. Every month Google processes 100 billion queries, and typically returns results with microsecond speed. However, on a fairly regular basis, Google's search engine has to think a bit harder to render a result. On a daily basis, 15 percent of queries submitted -- 500 million -- have never been seen before by Google's search engine, and that has continued for the nearly 15 years the company has existed, according to John Wiley, the lead designer for Google Search.

An up-to-date look at free software and its makers
Conary promises a new approach to package management, and the Ecology howto provides tips on sustainable computing. We'll also look at Stopmotion, a tool for creating cartoons, and we'll tell you about the latest Debian controversy.
The more distributions, software packages and repositories there are, the worse the problems with package management become. Linux users must contend with unresolved dependencies, incorrect library versions, and overwritten patches. Rpath [1] have adopted a radical approach to simplifying package management. The company mainly comprises former Red Hat managers and developers. The fact that Erik Troan, the inventor of the RPM package management system, and Michael K. Johnson, who headed kernel development and later the Fedora project, are both on board lends credibility to the project. Add a smattering of former maintainers, and you get a team that is loaded with Linux skills. Linux Toolbox Rpath is currently working on their own Linux distribution, which will serve other projects or companies as a basis for special Linux variants. The Rpath team is developing the Conary system [2] to handle package management. And Conary looks set to resolve many of the issues that plague package management systems. Conary is not compatible with other package formats, so it will only work on systems designed to use it out of the box, such as Rpath Linux or Foresight Linux [3] by Ken van Dine. Foresight, which is based on Rpath, comes with the latest versions of Gnome and related technologies, such as Hal and Beagle.
