THE BAND PERRY Reaches Gold and Platimum
As anticipation builds for their Republic Nashville release on April 2, The Band Perry, reaches two major RIAA sales accolades. The sophomore project's lead single, "Better Dig Two," has been certified GOLD - selling over 700,000 - and marks their fastest-rising single to date at Country radio, Top 10-and-climbing. Additionally, "You Lie" - from their platinum-plus-selling, self-titled debut album - has now sold over one million copies, achieving PLATINUM status.
Throughout the spring, the family band will perform as special guests on Rascal Flatts' CHANGED TOUR. Their new show, which gives fans a preview of the upcoming music, will make stops this weekend in Sioux City, IA (1/17); Tulsa, OK (1/18) and Wichita, KS (1/19).
The Band Perry - comprised of siblings Kimberly, Reid and Neil Perry - combines classic Country with an eclectic infusion of Rock, Gospel and Soul that is rounded out by perfect three-part harmonies. The sibling trio's latest offering, the Top 10-and-climbing "Better Dig Two," has sold over 650,000 downloads and is the fastest-rising single of their career. On April 2, the band will release their sophomore album on Republic Nashville. The Band Perry is currently on the road as special guests of the Rascal Flatts' Changed Tour.
Since signing to Republic Nashville in 2009, The Band Perry has quickly catapulted into the mainstream, in part, due to the success of their platinum, self-titled debut album. Now approaching sales of 1.5 million, the project produced two Gold-certified hits - #1 "All Your Life" and "You Lie" - as well as the Quadruple-Platinum, "If I Die Young," which took the #1 position on both Country and AC charts. The milestones helped establish TBP in 2011 as both ACM and CMA New Artist of the Year and CMT Music Award Breakthrough Video of the Year as well as the "Best New Live Act" in category sponsored by Nationwide Insurance. They also took home the CMA Single of the Year and Kimberly Perry was honored with Song of the Year, for penning "If I Die Young." TBP has previously garnered GRAMMY, TEEN CHOICE, AMA, ACA and Billboard Music Award nominations. For more on The Band Perry, visit thebandperry.com and "join the family" at thefansperry.com.

A calm lake is beautiful, but an ocean of tropical fish is much more stimulating. DJ Harry's latest, Collision, plumbs deep yet predictable waters with even-keeled songs that meander from track to track. The album doesn't gain any real focus until newcomer vocalist Lissie swims by with the splendor of a blue-lined snapper. Collisionfalls somewhere between electro, funk-house and traditional down-tempo, with organic world-music instrumentation layered above sterile, effects-driven programming. And while each song in the pretty but stagnant pool would be lovely in a lounge set, the disc as a whole laps the shore lazily, waiting for a focal point -- such as more bright flashes of movement from the likes of Lissie.

- Final-state interactions in the production of hydrogen and helium isotopes by relativistic heavy ions on uranium (1976)
- Double-differential cross sections have been measured for high-energy p, d, t, 3He, and 4He particles emitted from uranium targets irradiated with 20Ne ions at energies of 250, 400, and 2100 MeV/nucleon and 4He ions at 400 MeV/nucleon. By using the shape and yield of the proton energy spectra, the shape and yield of the d, t, 3He, and 4He energy spectra can be deduced at all measured angles for all incident projectile energies by assuming that they are formed by a coalescence of cascade nucleons, using a model analogous to that of Butler and Pearson, and Schwarzschild and Zupancic-caron.
- Nuclear fireball model for proton inclusive spectra from relativistic heavy-ion collisions (1976)
- A simple model is proposed for the emission of nucleons with velocities intermediate between those of the target and projectile. In this model, the nucleons which are mutually swept out from the target and projectile form a hot quasiequilibrated fireball which decays as an ideal gas. The overall features of the proton-inclusive spectra from 250- and 400-MeV/nucleon 20Ne ions and 400-MeV/nucleon 4He ions interacting with uranium are fitted without any adjustable parameters.
- Central collisions of relativistic heavy ions (1977)
- The energy spectra of protons and light nuclei produced by the interaction of 4He and 20Ne projectiles with Al and U targets have been investigated at incident energies ranging from 0.25 to 2.1 GeV per nucleon. Single fragment inclusive spectra have been obtained at angles between 25° and 150°, in the energy range from 30 to 150 MeV/nucleon. The multiplicity of intermediate and high energy charged particles was determined in coincidence with the measured fragments. In a separate study, fragment spectra were obtained in the evaporation energy range from 12C and 20Ne bombardment of uranium. We observe structureless, exponentially decaying spectra throughout the range of studied fragment masses. There is evidence for two major classes of fragments; one with emission at intermediate temperature from a system moving slowly in the lab frame, and the other with high temperature emission from a system propagating at a velocity intermediate between target and projectile. The high energy proton spectra are fairly well reproduced by a nuclear fireball model based on simple geometrical, kinematical, and statistical assumptions. Light cluster emission is also discussed in the framework of statistical models.

- Upper limit of D 0 production in central Pb-Pb collisions at 158 A GeV (2005)
- Results are presented from a search for the decays D0 -> K min pi plus and D0 bar -> K plus pi min in a sample of 3.8x10^6 central Pb-Pb events collected with a beam energy of 158A GeV by NA49 at the CERN SPS. No signal is observed. An upper limit on D0 production is derived and compared to predictions from several models.
- Indications for the onset of deconfinement in Pb + Pb collisions at the CERN SPS from NA49 (2005)
- Particle production in central Pb+Pb collisions was studied with the NA49 large acceptance spectrometer at the CERN SPS at beam energies of 20, 30, 40, 80, and 158 GeV per nucleon. A change of the energy dependence is observed around 30A GeV for the yields of pions and strange particles as well as for the shapes of the transverse mass spectra. At present only a reaction scenario with onset of deconfinement is able to reproduce the measurements.
- Hadron spectra and QGP hadronization in Au + Au collisions at RHIC (2002)
- The transverse mass spectra of Omega hyperons and phi mesons measured recently by STAR Collaboration in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV are described within a hydrodynamic model of the quark gluon plasma expansion and hadronization. The flow parameters at the plasma hadronization extracted by fitting these data are used to predict the transverse mass spectra of J/psi and psi' mesons.
- System-size dependence of strangeness production in high-energy A+A collisions and percolation of strings (2005)
- We argue that the shape of the system-size dependence of strangeness production in nucleus-nucleus collisions can be understood in a picture that is based on the formation of clusters of overlapping strings. A string percolation model combined with a statistical description of the hadronization yields a quantitative agreement with the data at sqrt s_NN = 17.3 GeV. The model is also applied to RHIC energies.
- Relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions : a connection between the strangeness maximum at square root s approximately equal to 7 GeV and the QCD critical endpoint from lattice studies (2003)
- A steep maximum occurs in the Wroblewski ratio between strange and non-strange quarks created in central nucleus-nucleus collisions, of about A=200, at the lower SPS energy square root s approximately equal to 7 GeV. By analyzing hadronic multiplicities within the grand canonical statistical hadronization model this maximum is shown to occur at a baryochemical potential of about 450 MeV. In comparison, recent QCD lattice calculations at finite baryochemical potential suggest a steep maximum of the light quark susceptibility, to occur at similar mu B, indicative of "critical fluctuation" expected to occur at or near the QCD critical endpoint. This endpoint hat not been firmly pinned down but should occur in the 300 MeV < mu c B < 700 MeV interval. It is argued that central collisions within the low SPS energy range should exhibit a turning point between compression/heating, and expansion/cooling at energy density, temperature and mu B close to the suspected critical point. Whereas from top SPS to RHIC energy the primordial dynamics create a turning point far above in epsilon and T, and far below in mu B. And at lower AGS energies the dynamical trajectory stays below the phase boundary. Thus, the observed sharp strangeness maximum might coincide with the critical square root s at which the dynamics settles at, or near the QCD endpoint.
- The strangeness signal in hadron production at relativistic energy (2003)
- Strangeness enhancement is discussed as a feature specific to relativistic nuclear collisions which create a fireball of strongly interacting matter at high energy density. At very high energy this is suggested to be partonic matter, but at lower energy it should consist of yet unknown hadronic degrees of freedom. The freeze-out of this high density state to a hadron gas can tell us about properties of fireball matter. The hadron gas at the instant of its formation captures conditions directly at the QCD phase boundary at top SPS and RHIC energy, chiefly the critical temperature and energy density.
- Hadron production in relativistic nuclear collisions (2003)
- Relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions create a "fireball" of strongly interacting matter at high energy density. At very high energy this is suggested to be partonic matter, but at lower energy it should consist of yet unknown hadronic, perhaps coherent degrees of freedom. The freeze-out of this high density state to a hadron gas can tell us about properties of fireball matter.

Last week, at the Amazon Web Services Summit in San Francisco's Moscone Center, we met many companies who have deployed (or will migrate) their sensitive projects to the Amazon cloud. These companies expressed real concerns about the security of their information, and the status of continued compliance with regulations like HIPAA and PCI DSS. Below, a summary of the questions we were asked at the show.
Q. Does Amazon Web Services completely cover cloud security?
Amazon Web Services offers impressive built-in security features like firewalls, identity and access management, and private subnets. Yet as Amazon's own Security Center will explain: there is a shared responsibility for cloud security and "AWS has secured the underlying infrastructure and you must secure anything you put on the infrastructure."
You are responsible to secure your own sensitive data, to encrypt data at rest and in transit and, importantly, to ensure that only you (not even AWS) control your encryption keys. This is both security common sense and also important from a regulatory point of view.
Q. How is the Porticor cloud encryption solution different?
Porticor did not re-invent the data encryption wheel. We use industry standards for data encryption like AES. Our system is unique, however, in how it handles the keys to your encrypted data. Porticor is the only system that keeps control of encryption keys in the hands of the end customer while providing a pure cloud model – without any hardware requirements.
With Porticor, once your sensitive data is encrypted, our system takes the encryption key and splits it into two parts (here's how in 90 seconds). One part stays within our system and one part, the "master key" stays with you at all times. Both parts are required to access your data. With this split-key encryption approach, Porticor ensures that only you control access to your data. AWS cannot access it, Porticor cannot access it, and hackers cannot access it. Only you control your data. This is what makes the system PCI and HIPAA compliant while maintaining the "pure cloud" approach. You can read more about it here.
Q. Does this kind of cloud security slow down performance?
No. We've gone to some length to keep performance top notch, by introducing efficient streaming. We also make sure that encryption happens inside your AWS account, in the same zone as your own AWS project, so there are no latency issues around network hops. You have a choice between a "Virtual Appliance" that you can bring up inside your own AWS account, and an "agent" that you can install on your own AWS instances.
As a result in some use cases we actually speed you up a bit! Detailed benchmarks are available here.
Q. Amazon Web Services offers CloudHSM. How does that compare?
It really depends on your requirements. CloudHSM is a hardware solution and is therefore highly secure. But it also brings hardware "challenges" to a cloud deployment. For example, it does not automatically scale, it is limited in regional support, and it is expensive.
Porticor is a software-defined solution, meaning it can scale (up or down) easily, as no hardware is involved. On top of that, Porticor delivers a holistic approach. We believe that encryption keys should be secure both on the key management side, as well as while in use. This is where our patented homomorphic split-key management kicks in.
Q. What does homomorphic encryption mean?
Homomorphic encryption is a technique that enables encrypting data, and keeping it encrypted even if it is used in calculations. As it relates to our system, Porticor homomorphically encrypts your master key before it enters the cloud, and it stays encrypted – never decrypted – when it is used in the cloud. This means your entire project works without anyone knowing your master key – not Porticor, not AWS, no computing element at all. This way, you retain control of your key at all times. Your key is safe even when it is in use in the cloud.
Q. Which companies need Porticor's cloud security for AWS?
If your company or its clients face regulations like HIPAA, PCI DSS, or many others – you need Porticor.
If your company is committed to the security of the data or apps you store in the AWS cloud – you need Porticor.
If you want total cloud security that is flexible, scalable, easy to implement, and cost effective – you need Porticor.
Q. Are you an official partner of Amazon Web Services?
Yes. You can find us here.
Q. Is your solution only for Amazon Web Services?
No. You can use Porticor in any cloud scenario: public clouds (AWS, VMware, IBM, etc.), private clouds (VMware again), or hybrid scenarios.
Q. How is Porticor implemented inside my Amazon Web Services account?
Porticor is available as an AMI (Amazon Machine Image), so you can bring up a Porticor "Virtual Appliance" in your AWS account by the native AWS methods. Porticor is also available as an agent you can install on your AWS server instance.
Q. How do I get started?
You can try it for free here. If you have any questions, contact us.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

Florida Georgia Line's music may not be considered traditional country, but they say that it's okay that their music shares common ground with rock and pop.
Florida Georgia Line's music may not be considered traditional country, but they say that it's okay that their music shares common ground with rock and pop.
Today's KLAW Classic was written by Alabama's lead singer Randy Owen.
Today's KLAW Classic was the 10th #1 song for Alabama, but it was written by 2 members of another country group.
Day One of the 2014 CMA Fest at Nashville's LP Field kicked off swimmingly on Thursday (June 5).
Songwriter Ronnie Rogers says the inspiration for the song 'Dixieland Delight' came from a drive down Highway 11W in Tennessee.
The first line 'Rollin' down a backwoods, Tennessee byway; one arm on the wheel', soon grew into images of the main character was looking forward to wrapping his arms around his girl and spending some time after a long work week was through.
Today is a big day in history for the mega country group Alabama.
This dainty, little Alabama fan starts kicking a few OU fans while attending the 2014 Sugar Bowl. Despite being returned to her seat by other 'Bama fans, the little blonde crowd-surfs her way back into the confrontation and throws a few air-kicks before being wrangled by security
Check out today's KLAW Country Classic featuring Alabama "Lady Down On Love".
A song written by Randy Owen, and recorded by American country music band Alabama. It was released in August 1983 as the third single from Alabama's album The Closer You Get.
Alabama teamed up with some of country's biggest stars including Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney and Florida Georgia Line, for their new Alabama & Friends album.
Today's KLAW Classic, penned by Ronnie Rogers, was the 9th number one is a string of 21 straight number ones for super group, Alabama. Overall, Alabama scored 64 singles and 32 #1 songs in a career that is not quite finished yet

FRIDAY, May 30, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Why do male babies have a tougher time in the womb than their female counterparts?
A new study suggests that the placenta -- the organ that connects the developing fetus to the mother and provides nourishment in the womb -- plays a major role in creating differences that go beyond the obvious physical differences between the genders.
"Our research has found that there are undeniable genetic and physiological differences between boys and girls that extend beyond just the development of their sexual characteristics," study co-author Claire Roberts, leader of the fetal growth research priority for the University of Adelaide's Robinson Research Institute in Australia, said in an university news release.
"We've known for some time that girls are clearly winning in the battle for survival, with markedly better outcomes for female babies for preterm birth, stillbirth, neonatal death and other complications after birth, such as macrosomia [a baby that weighs more than 8 pounds 13 ounces at birth]," Roberts said. "Male babies generally grow faster and bigger than females. This occurs in both the animal and human worlds, but until now we haven't really understood how or why."
In the new study, researchers found that genes produced by the placenta are different in males and females.
"We found that with female babies, there is much higher expression of genes involved in placental development, the maintenance of pregnancy and maternal immune tolerance," study co-author Sam Buckberry, a graduate student at Adelaide, said in the news release.
Roberts pointed out that "these findings may be important to help guide future sex-specific therapeutics [treatments] for pregnant women and for babies in the neonatal nursery."
The study is published in the May 27 online issue of the journal Molecular Human Reproduction.

Tips and Tricks! Here are the ones you absolutely must read, so we've selected them for you. The main magazine Tipster Section awaits you for more how-to tipster fun.
★ Secret Messages from a Spool.
A fellow film photographer's birthday coming? Need ideas for the coming festive season? Well giving someone a 120film as a gift just got interesting!
★ Diana Mini - Splitzer Made of Film Canister Caps
You can make this tipster even if you are all thumbs. Within a couple of minutes you can tinker a Splitzer for your Diana Mini!
★ Paper-like Frames
Here are some of my newly brainstormed ideas for some snazzy frames!
★ Film Canister Christmas Lights
Have you ever had a roll of 35mm film that did not turn out well? Now is your chance to use it! (Or take some shots of different textures.) These are great for your Christmas tree or to put anywhere as decoration.
★ Your Pinhole Ghost
How does one photograph themselves to be transparent without doing a double exposure you ask? It's simple! Continue reading and find out how!
★ Display Your Photos with Just Your Negatives!
So you just got your prints and are eager to display them for everyone to see. No frame? No problem. You already have what you need in that envelope you got from the one-hour photo. This is an easy way of saying to your non-lomographic friends, "Yes, unlike your photos that are stuck inside the computer, my photos come from an actual roll of film and are already sitting pretty on my shelf."
★ Stutter Steps
Use your multiple exposure camera to make your images shift and stutter for an otherworldly weirdness.
★ Light leaks on Diana Mini !
My Diana Mini is my best friend and it produces beautiful little pictures! But only recently have I found a way to get some light leaks on demand into that bad girl, without having to do drastic changes to her...
★ Underexposed Films are Gems. We Can Build a Mask Out of It.
The idea is simple, just like creating regular mask only out of our film. There is a good tipster in the past for building a mask. This has the same technique, just different medium.
★ Recycle your 35mm Canisters to Make Home for 120 films!
Actually for a long time I didn't know that 120 film sometimes comes with a canister, none of the films I had bought over the past 4 years had these. It's quick and easy to do and helps the environment by re-using stuff instead of discarding it.
★ The Great Big Lomography Film Bible: Colour Negative Edition
So many films, yet only so much time (and money). Analogue world can be overwhelming at times, but we're here to help with the first installment of the Lomography Film Bible. We're kicking things off with a round-up of all kinds of colour negative film.

★ How to Make a Panographic Picture
From the moment I first saw them I also wanted to try it – the panographic pictures. It is like a huge panorama picture, but consists of several smaller, overlapping photos. It is also very util when you just have one lense who could not take the whole object you want to photograph at one time.
★ Cap Your Gakkenflex - A Tutorial
The Gakkenflex TLR is a fun little toy camera that's capable of taking some incredible pictures. To those unfamiliar with Twin Lens Reflex (TLR) cameras, it's quite an unusual piece and a great conversation starter. However, I can't help but feel that something's missing... Ah, lens caps!
★ Getting Close With the Ringflash (LC-A+)
After buying my close-up lens for my LC-A+, i was a bit disappointed because it would not fit in my Ringflash. I found this odd seeing as the phrase "Get as close as possible" is written directly on the Ringflash. I figured that it would be cool to "get as close as possible" and still have clear focused photos. So I did a bit of remodeling.
★ Simple MIY: Mod It Yourself
Who hasn't been amazed by seeing someone, either on the site or in real life, with a modded camera ? I know I have...

Drunk Driver Runs Over Himself
A 21-year-old man accused of drunk driving lead police on a mini-chase around Santa Fe before he proceeded to fall out of the car and accidentally run himself over. He drove his pickup truck (shocker) into a ditch and attempted to put the truck into park, but actually ended up in reverse. He then fell from the car and it ran over both his legs. After that, I assume the chase was officially over.

All: Would I notice any honey aroma and/or flavor with honey being only 4% of the fermentables?
I've got an American Wheat fermenting right now (2 days in and going strong) and I'm considering adding honey to primary with it.
It had an OG of 1.050, and I mashed at 152. I'm big on balance, and I know honey will dry out the final beer a bit, but keeping the amount within reason, I think this beer could benefit from it if I can get any subtle aroma from it.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Here's my recipe without the honey:
50% Wheat Malt
45% 2Row
Tettnang @ 60Min - 14IBU
Tettnang @ 15Min - 7IBU
Tettnange @ 0Min
Contrary to all of the suggestions and advice above, I decided not to.
IME Honey malt is the better option for the flavor and aroma of honey. The times I have used real honey I have not been able to detect much of anything honey related. I think you made the right choice.

By now, you've probably seen the video -- Gopher men's hockey fan Adam Martin brought a clever sign to Minnesota's Feb. 14 (Valentine's Day) game vs. Michigan, only to find he and his younger sister on the Mariucci Arena Kiss Cam.
Video of the event was posted on the Gophers' YouTube account and quickly went viral, garnering over 12 million views in the first week and was featured in dozens of international media outlets, including the Today Show, Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Los Angeles Times, New York Daily News, Deadspin and many more!
Gopher Digital Productions sat down with Martin, a Minneapolis resident, during a recent Gophers practice at Mariucci Arena to hear the story behind the sign. Be sure to watch the video feature above or on YouTube here: http://youtu.be/OAdorJ_kbQA

Does anyone know where I can get mini cupcakes and mini cookies within Manhattan? Thanks!
You can get mini cupcakes at Two Little Red Hens.
If you are pressed for time, go to a Dean & Deluca that carries mini cupcakes from Two Little Red Hens as well as the tiny cookies from Amy's.
Ciao for Now has mini cupcakes so does Tonnie's Minis but only with special order. If you have time I'm pretty sure Batch will do mini cupcakes as well. I saw mini cupcakes in there one day and wanted to buy one but thy said they were a special order.
Tonnie's Minis
120 W 3rd St, New York, NY 10012
Ciao for Now
523 E 12th St, New York, NY 10009

re: misnatalie
Unfortunately Tonnie's Minis has closed :(
Sweet Melissa does many different kinds of mini desserts, though I've never sampled any of her offerings.
Tawny bakery has awesome mini cupcakes....red velvet, pumpkin, vanilla, peppermint, many great flavors.........she will deliver or do any custom order. www.tawnyong.com
although i havent tried I have seen assortments of mini cupcakes at crumbs bakery on university.
Go to How Sweet It Is in the LES. It has awesome inventive mini cupcakes and some mini cookies as well. Really nice staff too boot!
Eleni's in Chelsea Market has both small and large cupcakes; the mini I had was a bit dry, but it was later in the day in it's defense-quite affordable as I remember, so worth a try in the early afternoon when they're fresher
Baked by Melissa specializes in mini cupcakes. It's all they sell, and there's a shop on 14th, and a kiosk in Soho.
The Cupcake Truck (not sure the exact name) also sells mini cupcakes.
Most Italian bakeries sell mini cookies, depending on what you're looking for. I don't know that anyone is selling mini chocolate chips in the style of Famous Amos anymore.
Tisserie is another.

Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in the mountains

There has never been greater urgency for expanding and improving U.S. workforce training programs. In this Working Paper, Thomas Hilliard argues that the federal government should corral the country's siloed and disjointed workforce-development programs in line with a common national strategy.

South Korea has long enjoyed a robust civil society that encourages citizen participation in civic groups and social movements. Though it may not effect much change at the policy level, social activism related to the U.S.-ROK alliance provides valuable insight into domestic opinions. In this Working Paper, Andrew Yeo examines how these opinions shape the future partnership of the United States and South Korea.

U.S. policy of isolating Gaza is counterproductive and inadvertently helps entrench the terrorist group Hamas' control. The Obama administration should instead encourage trade and contacts between the West Bank and Gazan people to reestablish national institutions and elections, thereby empowering Palestinian partners for peace.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"For we fix our attention, not on things that are seen, but on things that are unseen. What can be seen lasts only for a time, but what cannot be seen lasts forever." (2 Corinthians 4:18 TEV)
As you strive to reach the goals that God has given you, it's important to remember that life on Earth is just a temporary assignment. Knowing this truth should radically alter your values and fix your attention on the things that are eternally important.
As C. S. Lewis observed, "All that is not eternal is eternally useless."
It is a fatal mistake to assume that God's goal for your life is material prosperity or popular success as the world defines it. The abundant life has nothing to do with material abundance. Faithfulness to God does not guarantee success in a career or even in ministry. Never focus on temporary crowns.
Paul was faithful, yet he ended up in prison. John the Baptist was faithful, but he was beheaded. Millions of faithful people have been martyred, have lost everything, or have come to the end of life with nothing to show for it. But the end of life is not the end!
When life gets tough, when you're overwhelmed with doubt, or when you wonder if living for Christ is worth the effort, remember that you are not home yet. At death you won't leave home — you'll go home.
