In the Palm of Your Hand
Here at NYSCI we don't track our hours by punching in with time cards at those giant clocks. Our system relies on geometry, measuring the shape of our hands and the angles at which our fingers and palms meet. While it is difficult to imitate the shape of someone's hand, fingerprints and retinal scans are even more specific to the individual.
We've all seen action movies where the bad guys gain access to secure locations by making molds of the fingerprint, but they often struggle to fool retinal scanners. That's because those scanners read vein patterns on the back of the eye. Students at Lund University in Sweden realized how unique vein patterns are, and how difficult they'd be to fake, so why not use them at cash registers?
Don't worry, they won't be aiming price scanners at your eyes! Instead you'd place your palm on a scanning pad that detects the veins in your hand. Just like a debit card, the money is taken out of your bank account right away, but more importantly, it completely eliminates the hassle of fumbling with your wallet to find your card.
According to the Lund University students, the hardest part of implementing this project was connecting all the dots. The vein scanning terminals, the banks, the stores and of course the customers all had to be on the same page for it to work. For now the program is active with 1,600 users in the immediate vicinity of the Lund University campus, but this is just the start of much shorter lines at the supermarket check-out.

Attention word nerds: 13 mysteries of the vernacular, solved

Before a 'clue' became a thing that excited a detective, the word referred to a ball of yarn. So how did this shift in meaning occur?

Theseus unrolled the yarn behind him as he traveled into the deadly maze — then used it to find his way out.
Word derivation trivia is always fun to unleash at a party. And you'll find lots more of it in the TED-Ed series Mysteries of the Vernacular, from Jessica Oreck and Rachael Teel.

Wisdom: Are your rules written down and endorsed by all? It is a Game! Each person plays games differently, but within the rules. (Some do cheat but!) People who play games want to win, right? When you play Monopoly, cards, etc. do you play to loose?
Get over it!
I hope people knock off that Arthur Chu. He has taken the fun out of watching the show.
AND the competitors need to NOT play HIS game! I've noticed that because he starts at the bottom, and bounces all over the board, when (IF) another player gets an answer, and gets to pick the next question, they start from where HE left off. No. Play your own game.
Oh...good luck to the GA lady.

I have some very important news for you today and that's:
Let me explain. There's something I'm sure you've seen that we can call "internet marketing irony" and that's what happens when:
- You buy this thing called "private label rights" and outsell the product originator, only to have them get angry at you for outselling — this happened all the time years ago when I got my start (jealousy)
- Other internet marketers seem to get upset when you do things like: mailing your list, following up, running pitch webinars, charging higher prices… you know, this thing called "marketing" (inner conflict)
- You see someone promoting a "product creation" course when they only have one product, a "book creation" course when you can't find their book, a "selling on Amazon" product when they aren't selling anything on Amazon (re-teaching what they barely know instead of implementing)
- Posting questions like, "I want to use this webinar service but I need something that can handle 10,000 guests…" Or, "I want to use this autoresponder service but I need something that holds 1,000,000 subscribers" (chest beating, they don't have 1 million subscribers)
Let's just call it what it is…
Entertainment… a SOAP OPERA!
If you spend too much time with the indecisive, negative, bitter, unmotivated people of the world then they will drag you down to their level… it's true…
I'm NOT saying you shouldn't help people. I post in public areas here and there and I definitely monitor what others are doing because I want to stay "in touch…"
But when "they" are getting too negative, you need to identify when criticism becomes complaining and shut that off… complaining means, the same negative message on repeat with no "real" solution.
"You are what you are and where you are
because of what has gone into your mind.
You can change what you are and where you are
by changing what goes into your mind."- Zig Ziglar
I'm not going to ask you something cheesy like, "What if the Wright Brothers, Thomas Edison, the founder of UPS, Colonel Sanders, etc… had given up when they first started?
Do you remember when you first got started online? Chances are most people told you it was a bad idea, or you even had to keep it a secret from several people…
I listened to the wrong people for a long time (the ones that told me I should stay at my day job) and I remember being ANGRY that I had to get a mortgage. My "favorite guru" at the time bragged about buying a home in cash (he now lives in a small apartment).
Problem: Vicious Cycle of
Negativity & Self-Doubt
I'll admit… I was one of those NEGATIVE people! I was a teenager, coding this and that plugin while I saw all these "rich guys" create autoresponder services, web hosting companies, heck, one guy made a plugin that added a visitor's first name to a web page, he sold tons of copies at $99 all day long. I thought… this guy has to be stopped… why won't people see? I spent all kinds of time posting about my "cause"… until one day I realized I was spending all my time tearing others DOWN instead of building something UP.
- If someone keeps dragging you down, day in and day out, they've gotta go… I'm sorry but you know deep down who they are
- If you find yourself being too negative for too long, maybe you need to unsubscribe from a few lists (not mine of course), unfriend a few people on Facebook (I have 245 people on my block list and way more I've unfriended or unfollowed) — it's ok to check in on them on YOUR terms, but don't let THEM interrupt YOU
- Move closer towards the people you want to be like — those people with successful businesses that make money
As an internet marketer (even if you are in some other niche and you are MARKETING on the INTERNET, you're still an "internet marketer") you should be aware of what others are doing. You should WANT to be sold to. You should PAY ATTENTION to what gets you to click and buy…
Solution: Ask Better Questions
The saddest thing is when I see an internet marketer (sometimes a subscriber but not always) say something like:
- They hate those "long ugly sales pages" (that they buy from anyway)
- They get "bombarded" with emails (that they chose to subscribe to and that they buy from anyway)
- They hate those "pitch webinars" where evil marketers try to sell them something — in that case, I hope you also don't watch TV (commercials), go to the movies (previews), drive a car (radio and billboards), read magazines (print ads), or browse web pages or Facebook (sidebar ads)… you should look at it as an opportunity to GROW your business by getting the ideas all around you and seeing what works (and what doesn't)
Doesn't it make sense that if you ask better questions of yourself (like "what's good about this?") then you'll get better answers, which you'll be able to use to solve your current problems (like "what price do I charge?") to get better problems (like "now how do I handle all these online sales?")
You're right either way. If you "THINK" it's all a scam, and that there are too many issues to sort out with this internet marketing stuff, you're right. If you KNOW you'll do what needs to be done (and that's not necessarily more hours or "hard work") then you'll do it. You'll make that optin page, sales letter, membership site, and start sending traffic, adjusting, and making sales.
If the usual mentors you think about (Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, Donald Trump) started over from scratch, do you think they would "play around" with graphics, domain names, and which WordPress them and plugins to use… OR… do you think they would set something up that's good enough and adjust from there?
I'm curious to know in the comments below… what mistakes do you see other marketers making, especially in the products they put out? And what can you learn from their mistakes?

Even on St. Patrick's Day against a team with "Green," the Nets put together another solid victory over a team with a better record than them, pouring on the offense to the tune of 68 percent shooting in the first half and leading wire-to-wire in a blowout victory. Phoenix occasionally threatened down the stretch, but Brooklyn was able to hold them off and convert the victory.
Their turnover-causing defense has been the catalyst for most of 2014, but this game was won on the back of their red-hot offense: as a team, Brooklyn shot a scorching 68 percent in the first half and kept the offense moving behind Joe Johnson and Deron Williams.
After a letdown in Washington, this is exactly the type of game the Nets needed.
Shout out to Deron Williams for throwing down a dunk -- nay, even attempting a dunk -- after some of you guys thought he might not try again this year following his botched attempt at the end of the first half Saturday night.
Hopefully, this type of Deron Williams game becomes more of the standard and not the norm. This is the spry, quick, explosive, attacking, floor-spreading, defense-dominating Deron Williams the Nets wanted, dropping 15 points in the first half on a variety of moves and fakes, like this incredibly filthy, Green-defying crossover that was even better from the baseline angle. He created like eight feet of space.
Williams crossed, scored, and for stretches, dominated this game with his offensive prowess. Can't ask for a better performance from Brooklyn's star guard.
Oh, and dunked.
Forced steals, filled up the box score, got behind defenders for open dunks and quick layups, threw a poster down on Miles Plumlee, and other than a slow first-half stretch where a Nets lead dwindled with him at the helm, another box-score-stuffing, all-around fun night from Brooklyn's off guard.
But the most important fact from Livingston's night: with more than 9 points and more than 28 minutes played, Livingston set a new career-high for points and minutes in a single season. Without belaboring the point: seven years ago, it looked like he might never play again. Now he's out here setting career highs and having fun in a starting lineup.
A quietly excellent game from Sniper Joe. Scored early on in the post and caught fire for a brief stretch in the third quarter, including a dirty crossover into a Park Slope deep three-pointer to extend their lead. Spread the ball around and didn't turn it over. Classic Joe Johnson.
Pierce was involved early; attacking the rim and hitting an above-the-break three to kick off Brooklyn's scoring, and some good crowd-pleasing by imploring the fans to stand up with Brooklyn's P.A. announcer. My favorite play of his came in the third quarter: Goran Dragic and Ish Smith got crossed up on their defensive assignment, leaving Shaun Livingston open for the slimmest of seconds. But Pierce immediately recognized the folly and whipped a pass to Livingston inside, which he converted for a layup. Most power forwards can't do that.
You don't get out of the way of the Blatche train, the Blatche train builds rails around you, and don't you dare touch any of them because they're all the third rail.
I may have overheard before the game from a very reliable source that Mason Plumlee was challenged to dunk on his brother by the team.
Only took him about six minutes.
Okay, so this wasn't a direct poster, but he slipped past his brother and threw it down without regard for genetics. Even though Gerald Green posterized him later, gotta give him credit for trying. When all was said and done, Plumlee outplayed his brother with relative ease by doing the same thing he's done all season:
After playing just five minutes in one game so far this season, got some first quarter minutes and didn't look lost on the floor. Picked up one "free safety" steal, didn't get in the way of Andray Blatche's pump-fakes, kept a watchful eye on Ish Smith, kept his game simple and effective.

Check out his 2012 highlight video and see what you think about his skills.
My initial impression after watching the video is that he is a running back that has a skillset very similar to current Illini Josh Ferguson. London appears very smooth catching the football out of the backfield, and clearly Coach Cubit knows how to integrate that type of ability into his offense.
Size wise, London's video represents him at 6'1″, 205 which slightly edges out Ferguson's 5'10", 195 pound frame. The extra size may help him avoid injuries in the rugged Big Ten, as his video also shows that London isn't afraid to run the ball up inside. Finding this type of versatility is very important for Illinois, and that's what makes him such a great fit for this team.
At any rate, this isn't the only Big Ten team knocking on London's door. He currently has offers from Nebraska, Michigan St., Wisconsin, and Purdue in addition to his offer from Illinois. Further, he has offers from Florida St. and South Carolina. So, Illinois is definitely swimming in the deep end with this recruitment, but it's players like this that can help bring Illinois up to the next level nationally.
Will having Wes Lunt in the fold pay further dividends with another ultra-talented recruit? Only time will tell, but it's nice to know that a player of this caliber is taking a serious look into what the Illini have to offer.
One last pair of tweets that should interest you:
This weekends official visitor @madrelondon had 2 Touchdowns on 11 carries for 120 yards tonight. #Illini.
— Jason Thompson (@jthompson247) October 19, 2013
Yes, production like that would certainly be welcome at Illinois alongside the rest of the offensive weapons that the Illini are currently amassing, but just to temper fans expectations here is a tweet from the man himself.
Glad I got to see Nebraska coach at my game tonight .
— Madre London (@madrelondon) October 19, 2013
Illinois has their work cut out for them in their quest to secure this young man's services, but here's hoping the stadium fills up Saturday night with a rabid Illini fanbase, and the Illini put on an offensive display that shows London just how well he would fit into this system.

been sufficiently well validated—even if it is in a setting other than research—to warrant adaptation to the research environment.
In summary, measures that meet the following criteria are included: (1) they are theoretically well grounded in a model of morality that demonstrates the relationship between aspects of integrity and behavior; (2) they meet or exceed the minimal criteria for validity and reliability; (3) they have been successfully used to assess learning outcomes for adults either in research ethics programs or in professional ethics programs; (4) they have been used effectively to assess institutional effectiveness in promoting one or more aspects of integrity; and (5) the method of measurement is appropriate for assessment of an aspect of integrity in the research environment, even though the content of the measure may be specific to another discipline. Note that this discussion does not include measures or tests that assess content knowledge of the rules related to the conduct of research, measures that assess perceptions of the integrity of others (e.g., survey instruments designed for the Acadia Institute study), or measures designed to assess the norms of scientists with respect to misconduct and questionable research practices (Bebeau and Davis, 1996; Korenman et al., 1998). The latter might serve as a resource for the development of items for use in a survey of the moral climate of an institution or for items for assessment of role concept development.
Two bodies of literature contribute to the understanding of moral climate and its importance for the assessment of integrity in the research environment. The first is the literature on individual moral development, indicating that individual characteristics are not sufficient as an explanation for ethical behavior. Thus, efforts to influence behavior by focusing on the development of abilities related to decision making may be necessary, but not sufficient, to affect integrity in the research environment. The second is the literature on organizational culture and climate that highlights the different kinds of cultures that may be operating in the environment. There is a growing belief that organizations are social actors responsible for the ethical or unethical behaviors of their employees. In fact, corporations (Bowen and Power, 1993) have been held responsible under the law for acts of malfeasance and misfeasance engaged in by employees, sometimes even when the acts of those employees were beyond the scope of their employment. Such instances prompted scholars in the field of organizational development to turn their attention to the assessment of moral climate and to an analysis of the effects of moral climate on decision making.

Family TV Programming? You Can Find It Everywhere
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 30, 4:15 PM
Family-friendly programming is a place where all families can get together watching the same TV show -- even if it means someone's head gets ripped off. Isn't that a comforting thought?

NFL Network: On Offense AND Playing Defensively
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 29, 4:16 PM
The NFL Network finally has some good blocking upfront this week -- or so it thinks. The network is airing the big Dallas Cowboys-Green Bay Packers game Thursday night to its limited consumer base of 35 million homes. This is just the situation the NFL seemingly wanted: a big game that consumers can't get too easily.

Surprise! Upfront Has Started -- In Theory
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 28, 2:00 PM
With the coming of the new year, marketers are getting increasingly nervous about the drop in ratings, a potential of tons of make-goods, and the long-term effects of a continuing writers' strike. Oh, have I forgotten to mention this was the first year of commercial ratings guarantees. What kind of market is this? Simply put, it's the opposite of stability.

Fox Wins In Ratings, Advertising -- And Hubris
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 27, 2:15 PM
With the crazy dual-headed disruption monster of commercial ratings and the writers' strike, this TV season has had more fire-breathing turmoil and injured parties than anyone could imagine -- except at Fox. The network has seemingly already beaten the odds.

Not Just Bonds: More Athletes On Drugs Would Make Sponsors Jumpy
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 26, 3:45 PM
Last July German TV networks stopped airing the Tour de France because one mid-level German cyclist from a German-based team tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs. In this country, one of the biggest names in U.S. sports, San Francisco Giants baseball slugger Barry Bonds, has been indicted for lying about taking steroids to boost his baseball numbers. Will U.S.-based TV networks have similar troubles: for example, selling Major League Baseball to advertisers next year because of this scandal? More specifically, will local TV sponsors stop advertising on San Francisco Giants baseball games?

Strike Talk: Big Media Looking For Writers' Crushing Defeat?
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 21, 2:00 PM
Big media companies may feel in control -- in no hurry to do a deal to solve the writers' strike (even if they have scheduled some new talks). All of which says they want it all. Why? Have you seen the stock prices of any media company recently? There's a race there. Which will hit bottom first -- low-rated TV shows or low company stock prices?

TV Writers: How Long Is The Line Of Supporters?
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 19, 1:45 PM
Late-night TV shows want to get back to work because 80% of their shows have nothing to do with union writers. Should that matter? Reality-TV producers have a better argument: 100% of their shows have no use for union writers. And that's why the networks, in the next several months, will be using them like premoistened wipes at a preschool.

TV Writers: Meet Your New Boss -- Not Same As Your Old Boss
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 16, 2:15 PM
TV writers want to get paid more in the new digital world. But they don't want checks from TV networks. They really want them from TV advertisers. The writers' union has taken great pains to single out how much they believe TV networks are making with Internet advertising video when streaming TV shows. But going to these niche microeconomic lengths will prove to be trouble.

No Online Video Awards For Striking TV Writers -- For Some, That's Just The Point
by Wayne Friedman on Nov 15, 1:00 PM
So much for the Internet capitalizing on the writers' strike: TV Guide has just cancelled its first ever Online Video Awards. The publishing and cable TV company said this was due to the writers strike -- it didn't want to appear insensitive. This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, since TV Guide is a proponent of traditional TV.

It was tumultous time during the first few years of Jesus' life…Magi came to visit and Herod plotted to kill the promised Messiah, Joseph, Mary & Jesus had to flee to Egypt of all places, and there was weeping in the land as Herod slaughtered all the boys in the vicinity of Bethleham. Tradition states there were three Magi, but that is actually not supported anywhere in Scripture…they were a sign to all Gentiles that Jesus was not just going to be a King of the Jews. It's interesting to note that the scribes & teachers of the Law knew the Sciptures…but did nothing about it (vs. 4), it's one thing to know, it's all different thing to believe.
Regarding application…Enemies Deceptive Ways. Vs. 7, "Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared." Herod & satan forgot one thing…nothing is secret to God. God chose the right parents in Joseph & Mary to have the courage to obey and protect the very Son of God. Their journey in life was a incredibly arduous but one with many blessings….what an honor to have the priviledge of such an intimate relationship with Jesus. As we know, the enemy wasn't finished trying to stamp out Jesus and stop us from being saved. May we all desire to live out the truth and integrity that God has called us heavenward!

Your Daily FYI: How to Make A Fifi
Fifi: Homemade masturbatory device most often seen in use in prision.
- - - -
First of all, I had never heard of a fifi until two days ago. I knew dudes in jail got all kinds of inventive with things to stick their dicks in, but I had never heard of this particuar iteration. I mean this shit is nobel prize level. I learned about the Fifi on my date Thursday, which I think is the ultimate indicator that it was indeed a successful date.
- You will need: a rubber medical glove, a towel, a sock, some lube, and a lot of imagination.
- Soak the towel in hot water (for sensation) and wring out the excess water so that the towel isn't dripping.
- Lay the towel out flat.
- Place the glove onto the bottom left corner of the towel so that a little of the wrist hole of the glove is hanging over the bottom of the towel. Fold the tail of the towel over.
- Roll the glove up in the towel.
- Put the rolled up towel into the sock.
- Fold the wrist of the glove over the towel.
- Lube up the glove.
- Fuck the glove.
There are also variations that include putting raw meat or pie filling into the glove.
- - - - - -
Ok that raw meat/pie filling shit is going a bit far there. Why do that when you have this genius technology involving warm water and latex and lube I mean it's just like real sex haaay. But then again what do I know I've never been in jail. Also I don't have a penis.

I like to call myself a fifi. This is because many times I feel more like a masturbation device than someone's "lover".

J.R.R. Tolkien. From the main Middle Earth map, to the way moon-letters were introduced in the hobbit, to the large foldout in the Silmarillion. To this day the stylistic elements of those maps are copied across in other works.
Bethesda Software has also done some good work on making excellent maps detailing the regions of Tamriel. The newest, Skyrim, has even made guide publishers like Brady create very large interactive maps (that will absolutely crash browsers on powerful machines). Again, you can look at one of their maps and almost immediately know where it came from.

Double Flowering Plum - Tree Form.
- Starting at: $59.95 - In stock
Questions? (888) 864-7663
Beautiful Double Blooms Blanket Each Branch
Double Flowering Plum is the tree form of an ornamental shrub. It would make a spectacular specimen tree for your front yard where it can be enjoyed by your family and neighbors alike. Few spring-blooming trees get the reaction that this one does!
You can count on your Double Flowering Plum to put on quite a show with its gorgeous double, candy-pink flowers that seem to blanket each branch with fat pom-poms of color. From a distance, a stand of these trees in your yard will look like a pink cotton cloud.
Even without the spectacular flowers your Double Flowering Plum is a beautiful tree. Its foliage is more of a grass-green than dark green, and transforms to an attractive yellow-bronze color in the fall.
It can take a lot of abuse in terms of soil condition, so you won't have to worry about spending your time and money to keep this beauty thriving.
The Double Flowering Plum tends toward a round shape and is a robust grower.

Remembering Larry Burkett
- Thursday, July 10, 2003
"Larry reflected Christ's compassion and love for people more than any other person I've ever met." - Steve Moore
As friends and family prepare to honor the life of Larry Burkett at a July 11 memorial service in Atlanta, Steve Moore, vice president of broadcasting at Crown Ministries, shared with Crosswalk.com reflections about his former colleague.
Burkett, a well-known Christian author and radio personality, died July 4 following a long and courageous battle with cancer and other health problems. During the past 27 years, Burkett used seminars, as well as books, newsletters, and four radio programs, to share the Bible's message on finances with readers and listeners in the U.S. and abroad. He was 64.
Moore and Burkett co-hosted "Money Matters," "How to Manage Your Money," "MoneyWatch," and "A Money Minute" for many years.
"Larry influenced my life more than any man other than my father," says Moore. "In many ways, Larry actually seemed like a father to me, even though we are only 10 years apart in age."
With a background in broadcasting, Moore says he lacked financial acumen when he joined Crown Ministries. "But through all these years, I've finally learned how to balance my checkbook and live on a budget," Moore laughs. "But Larry's influence goes way beyond that.
""I really was able to see the fruits of the spirit and Jesus Christ himself in Larry's daily walk," Moore says. "Larry reflected Christ's compassion and love for other people more than any other person I've ever met."
On a daily basis, Burkett just loved people, Moore explains. "Whether coworkers, his family, or callers to the radio shows, for the few moments you were talking with Larry, you were the most important person on the earth. He never looked at his watch, he never looked over your shoulder, he never suggested that he had something more important to do."
Moore credits Burkett's love of people for the success of the radio ministry. "People felt that is was safe to call Larry and talk about their finances. They knew that Larry wouldn't yell at them or make fun of them, but that he would be a compassionate and listening ear."
Consistency and authenticity are two of Burkett's qualities that Moore most admired. "The same man that you heard on the radio was the same man behind the scenes. Larry walked the things that he taught, and he was never a different persona off the air. He had no skeletons in his closet and he was a man who served Christ first. He didn't care about book sales; he didn't care about how many stations we were on. He really cared about whether or not Christ was pleased with the way Larry was walking with Him and serving Him."

Flying Cars Ready To Take Off
timothy posted more than 9 years ago | from the they're-already-late dept.819
Ant writes "CBS News has an article, images, and a free streaming video clip of Elwood (Woody) Norris' invention of a working flying machine, AirScooter. He asked one of his test pilots to demonstrate it for 60 Minutes on a hilltop outside San Diego, California. It can fly for 2 hours at 55 mph, and go up to 10,000 feet above sea level. This week, he will receive America's top prize for invention. It's called the Lemelson-MIT award -- a half-million dollar cash prize to honor his life's work, which includes a brand new personal flying machine. Woody Norris' and others' inventions are for NASA's 'The Highway in the Sky.' It is a computer system designed to let millions of people fly whenever they please, and take off and land from wherever they please, in their very own vehicles."

Angels in America by Mark Liddell.
"This is my favorite place in New York City. No, in the whole universe. The parts of it I have seen. On a day like today. A sunny winter's day, warm and cold at once. The sky's a little hazy, so the sunlight has a physical presence, a character. In autumn, those trees across the lake are yellow, and the sun strikes those most brilliantly. Against the blue of the sky, that sad fall blue, those trees are more light than vegetation.
This angel. She's my favorite angel. I like them best when they're statuary. They commemorate death but they suggest a world without dying. They are made of the heaviest things on earth, stone and iron, they weigh tons but they're winged, they are engines and instruments of flight. This is the angel Bethesda."
~ Tony Kushner, Angels in America

These roasted vegetables look fantastic. I am really planning to roast more vegetables this year. I typically only roast asparagus, but I want to expand my repertoire.

My God Box
I went to Hobby Lobby a few days later, and found this red box in the Christmas clearance section. I placed it with a picture that my Mom cross stitched for me years ago. I added in a lamp, a jewelry box my hubby made for me, and a handmade kaleidoscope we found during our time in Florida. It's a quiet space in the corner of our bedroom, with an antique chair and side table that I can sit quietly in during nap time. Perfect for focusing on those things that I need to hand over to Him. Things I need to trust He will take care of in His time and in His way. And even though my kiddos are still to young to understand the concept of it all, I look forward to passing it on to them later on.
I also wanted to thank Rondell at Something Nice and Pretty, Holly At Hoosier At Heart, and Lauren at West Furniture Revival for thinking of me with the Stylish Blogger Award. Be sure to check out all of their lovely blogs!

I love it! I need the same box for fear! :(ReplyDelete
thanks for posting this.
I have heard of this before and think it is a wonderful idea. I have been training myself for YEARS to let go when I start. Most of the time it works and I let God have the worry, sometimes it just keeps hanging on!ReplyDelete
I need a big box right now. Thanks for the idea.ReplyDelete
Hi Ashley! I've been wondering how you have been and meant to shoot you an email. :-) I absolutely love this idea and have spent way too much time in my life worrying. It has very often consumed me and is a daily test of my trust and faith in the Lord to let things go. I find that so often my worry is about control...and letting go of control is scary. I appreciate you sharing this and I'm definitely going to try this idea out on myself. Blessings to you my friend!ReplyDelete
seriously love this idea. love. have a wonderfilled weekend:)ReplyDelete
I love this idea. I would think most of us can't help but worry to a certain extent. This is a step in the right direction to trust Him to do his thing. :)ReplyDelete
BTW, coming over from Hoosier at Heart.ReplyDelete
Stopping by from Hoosier at Heart, congratulations on your award.ReplyDelete
That is a great idea, I love your cross stitch behind it:)ReplyDelete
Bless you. I'm was sitting here worrying about everything; the blizzard, my parents, the inlaws, dh on his business trip half a country away, if my kids are getting sick, if I bought enough food or the right kinds to get us through...what silliness! God has and will provide and protect, and we'll all be just fine. I know HE led me to your site today. Blessings, and thank you. :)ReplyDelete
Love the little red box...I love containers like this for storing special things I want to keep.ReplyDelete

LeBron James Shows Off His 1 of 1 Nike LeBron 11
October 27th, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 6 comments
LeBron James' most recent Nike spot was one that had him parading around Miami in the LeBron 11 "King's Pride" colorway, but don't let that fool you into thinking that he doesn't have access to some exclusives already. Case in point is this never before seen combination that the man himself decided to show off today. The shoes feature some bright crimson and orange choices on the Hyperposite sectioning which gets blocked off by a thick black border. Get the full look after the break and stay tuned to see if more angles pop up for this one-off LeBron 11.
