White House senior adviser Jared Kushner will reportedly travel throughout the Middle East later this month to promote the Trump administration's Israeli-Palestinian peace plan.
His weeklong trip, which is scheduled to include stops in Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the United Arab Emirates and possibly Morocco, is planned for the last week of February. Accompanying him will be special envoy Jason Greenblatt, U.S. special representative Brian Hook and deputy assistant to the president Avi Berkowitz.
"On his trip to the Middle East, Kushner is expected to discuss with Arab officials the economic parts of the peace plan, which will entail huge investment in the Palestinian economy—mainly in Gaza," reported Axios. "U.S. officials say Kushner will ask the Gulf states to contribute to the economic plan, but that he is not planning to discuss details from the political components of the plan during his tour of the region."
Beforehand, Kushner, Greenblatt and other administration officials will travel to the Warsaw conference on the Mideast on Feb. 13-14 and meet with foreign officials regarding the peace plan.
Also scheduled to be in attendance in Warsaw are Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Bahrain—Gulf states with more positive relations with America and Israel.
The highly anticipated peace proposal is expected to be released after the Israeli elections on April 9. JNS.ORG

What Should Montreal Canadiens Do About Struggling Center David Desharnais?November 20, 2013
The sad truth surrounding struggling Montreal Canadiens center David Desharnais' 2013-14 season is the stat line of the game in which he made most of an impact read zeros nearly all the way across.
That game, during which he scored the shootout-winning goal, was November 15 against the Columbus Blue Jackets. And had he not been thrown a bone to appear in the shootout by head coach Michel Therrien in the first place, it likely would have been written off as yet another pitiful performance in a season defined by them.
He had zero goals, zero assists, zero penalties and an even plus-minus. A single shot on goal—his first in six games—was his saving grace, but that's kind of like getting a ticket for rear-ending someone and pointing out to the police officer that your seatbelt was on.
No matter how small the car crash or disaster (5'7", 170 lbs in this case), you don't get points for trying to avert it. Boy, does Desharnais know that for a fact, as he's clearly been playing his butt off. He just hasn't been getting the results. It's unfortunate, but in professional sports, results matter.
Speaking of which, the Habs now face a dilemma as a result, namely how to make use of a diminutive winger making $3.5 million per season, whom, right now, is making fans forget a whole lot about Scott Gomez.
That isn't to say Desharnais will go a full calendar year without scoring; the chances of that are slim (but not "to none" as Gomez once proved). It's only meant to convey the gravity of the Habs' predicament: They're a cap-space-strapped team paying a player to chip in offensively in the NHL, when, as much he might fit in physically, it seems as though he'd have a hard time scoring in midget AAA.
The Habs' options are obviously limited. If they could have traded Desharnais, they probably would have by now. It would seem there's just no market for a player who's too small to play in a team's bottom six, too ineffective to play in the top six and too expensive to be a healthy scratch.
Even teams with a lot of cap space that could once be counted on to take on a stupid contract now seem more focused on cutting costs by whatever means necessary, no matter how bad the trade may be. That unfortunately excludes any deal including Desharnais for, say, a bag of pucks—with it being be a coin toss regarding just for whom that trade would be bad.
Theoretically, the Habs can send Desharnais down to the minors and swallow all but $900,000 ($2.6 million) of his salary towards the salary cap, as per the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, which seeks to keep players from being buried in the minors.
In such a scenario, the Habs would "gain" nearly $1 million in cap space and clear a space for someone perhaps more deserving in the minors (which would include players on the ECHL's Wheeling Nailers at this point). However, one would think that if that was in the cards, Travis Moen, with a cap hit of $1.85 million, would have been sent down ages ago.
As such, it's a pretty safe assumption that Desharnais is in Montreal to stay, with three things having been made clear up to this point:
1) The Habs can't trade him because of his salary
2) The Habs aren't willing to demote him because of his salary and
3) It in turn makes little sense to keep scratching a player you're not willing to demote
As such, the only solution here is to get him going, even if only to raise his trade value. That means building the most ideal situation for him in which to thrive.
It's a less-than-ideal situation for the team as a whole to be clear.
Teams build around franchise players all the time. They don't tend to make allowances for 27-year-old forwards who have been in the league for parts of just four seasons and have had just one good one. And that's in where the secret lies.
Looking back at his career, he had the greatest success centering Max Pacioretty (6'2", 217 lbs) and Erik Cole (6'2", 210) two seasons ago, when he scored 60 points. Now, short of an unlikely deal to the Dallas Stars that would reunite him with Erik Cole (Joe Nieuwendyk is no longer general manager there), that means giving him two big bodies to play with to give him the most space.
Pacioretty is the obvious choice at left-wing, while Brandon Prust (6'0", 194 lbs) or Rene Bourque (6'2", 217 lbs) can slip in on the other side.
You either go with the actual big body in Bourque, who has the skills to be a top-six winger but can disappear for games at a time. Or you go with the grinder in Prust, who's got average size but plays bigger than he is and can be placed on any line in a pinch to inject some much-needed effort, enthusiasm and energy, much like Brendan Gallagher did against the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday, helping Desharnais to get two assists (and Pacioretty a hat trick).
Alternatively, leave Pacioretty out of it, put him on a line with Daniel Briere and Brendan Gallagher and demote Desharnais to the fourth line with Bourque and Prust playing opposite wings (both can).
Now, that would conceivably leave an open slot on the Lars Eller and Alex Galchenyuk line. Prust would otherwise fit in perfectly there, meaning perhaps throwing all caution to the wind and putting Desharnais with Bourque and Moen.
That admittedly seems a lot like throwing in the towel instead, putting Desharnais—a guy who tries without getting results—on a line with Bourque—a guy who can get results if only he tried consistently—and Moen—a guy who's arguably too worn down to even try.
However, how does one know what will work at this point? Either option is worth a try (with the former more likely to succeed), even if only because the Habs have tried everything else. There is no "worst" that can happen, because three assists in 20 games is rock bottom for the one-time top-line center. Things can only go up from here.

No, seriously — it's really hard to tell in the first Comet trailer. In the romantic dramedy, Dell (Long) and Kimberly (Rossum) meet in a universe parallel to ours, as Dell is convinced that they already know each other. The film then tells the story of their six-year romance, bouncing around in chronology.

In Rick Stroud's auto shop, there's a pile of about 25 tires he doesn't know what to do with. They've never been used before, but are now considered worthless. Because the tires have been sitting in his shop for years, they've begun cracking and are no longer in good enough condition for the road.
"We see tires that are more than 6 years old, even if they've never been used, develop dry rot," said Stroud, owner of Rick Stroud Tire & Auto Service in St. Petersburg. "They may still have a lot of tread, but they're not in good shape."
Instead of stocking his shop with tires, Stroud now has them delivered twice a day based on sales.
Aging tires — or old tires that have never been used, such as the ones in Stroud's shop — can cause safety issues on the road, even deaths. Old tires that look new can be made unsafe by infrequent driving. A tire that is 6 to 10 years old, even with good tread, can develop cracks on the surface or inside the rubber compounds and bust open on the highway in extreme cases.
A driver who drives 12,000 or more miles a year will become aware that their tires are getting old because the tread will look worn.
Many manufacturers estimate tires can last for five to 10 years, but Stroud said that depends on the conditions they have been exposed to.
"Up north, you can have a tire last seven or eight years," he said. "But in Florida, with extreme conditions, a tire may only last three or four years."
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has noted in the past that tires can age quicker in hotter conditions and more sunlight.
Fortunately, there are ways to determine a tire's age. Each tire is required to have a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) number stamped into either the front or back of the tire.
For example, if the number 4112 is stamped, it means the tire was made during the 41st week of 2012. If the number is on the back of the tire, you may have to take the tire off to see the date. Keep the DOT number in mind next time you are at an auto shop for service or getting your tires rotated.
If you're buying new tires from a tire dealership or an auto shop, ask how old the tires are and look for the DOT number. There have been cases where people have been scammed into thinking they bought brand new tires, only to find out later the tires are a few years old but have never been driven.

Glen Mills Is Getting a Sky Zone Indoor Trampoline Park
Because I know you've all been dyyyying to try a SkyRobics trampoline fitness class ever since I posted about it back in April, I thought some of you might be happy to hear that Sky Zone, the massive indoor trampoline park in Oaks where I took the class, is opening a closer-to-Philly location in Glen Mills in November. It will be the 41st Sky Zone location in the country when it opens.
The Delco Sky Zone will be at 10 Conchester Road, at the intersection of Route 1 and 322. The location will offer SkyRobics (woot!) as well as dodgeball leagues and other tournaments. And, of course, you can always just go there to bounce on the wall to wall to wall trampolines on your own.
According to skyzone.com, the company is also planning locations in Chalfont (coming spring 2014), Allentown (date TBA) and Langhorne (date TBA).

Outside of your family, please name a woman you admire and why:
Amazing women have served humanity at large and specific communities very well because of their passion and dedication. Someone I have admired is Maria Montessori, not only because she believed in education, but experiential learning. Her programs were originally designed for children that were challenged and needed to "visualize" to learn. She took the methodology of learning and applied it to children who were extremely bright. Maria was from Rome, however, her learning strategies have been replicated worldwide with much success, especially for young children. Even in business, we learn through our empirical experiences, engaging with people and being hands-on.
What advice would you give to young women who want to begin careers in technology?
Go into technology because you have a passion for it in terms of how it can impact the larger good, not because of the financial reward. There are many areas in technology wherein one can focus. My recommendation is to research companies, find a mentor, get an internship, etc., to see if it something you want to pursue. Talk to other women that have careers in technology. Also, as a woman, work/life balance is often important to us. As a result, I urge young women to strike a balance and to look for professions that encourage and support that.
If you could be any movie character for one day in real life, who would you be and why?
I would choose Ilsa Lund (played by Ingrid Bergman) in the film "Casablanca." The time in which the movie is set is appealing as is Casablanca, Morocco itself due to its history and the role that it played in World War II. The movie portrays commitment, loyalty, honor, and love. Ilsa was torn between two men and put in a very difficult place due to life's circumstances. She made the best of the situation by bringing out the best in both men. That's the true power of women; knowing how to be sensitive and making tough decisions in unforeseen situations.
If you could travel to a city you've never been to before, all expenses paid, where would you go and why?
I would like to go to Cairo, Egypt. There is so much rich history and a trip to the pyramids would be of personal interest. Another one of my favorite movies is "The Ten Commandments." I would feel like I could re-live some of the history by being there. A cruise down the Nile would feel very special as well. Not to mention - that I love Mediterranean and Arabic food. I can also speak some Arabic!

I know, I know. I have been amiss from my regular weekly/biweekly blogging. It's just that real life called, and brought a ton of issues I needed to work out before I could resume this part of my life. When I went through that period of hardship, I was so tempted to pull back, mope around and dwell in thoughts of 'I didn't deserve any of this', but instead I turned to the few things that remained stable. I leaned back into my ever-so-dependable support system and learned to appreciate my friends and family even more.
To tell you the truth, even styling the way I dress went on hiatus for a week or so and I was back in my ol' schlumpadinka shell who wore whatever was on top of her closet pile. I guess I just dress the way I feel. But judging from my comeback post, you must've guessed that I'm feeling much better now. :)
Thank God, I just got my fashion groove back! I missed this!
Kisses and hugs all around, my dears!

Throughout his film career, acclaimed Canadian director Denis Villeneuve (Incendies) has adapted to different genres and his latest feature, Arrival, is no exception. Arrival honours classic science fiction while also creating something truly original.
When 12 alien spacecraft land around the world, linguistics expert Dr. Louise Banks (Amy Adams, Big Eyes, Her, The Master) and theoretical physicist Ian Donnelly (Jeremy Renner, The Immigrant, The Hurt Locker) are recruited by the US military to obtain the answer to one question: "What do they want?" Arriving in Montana, working under the leadership of Colonel Weber (Forest Whitaker, The Last King of Scotland), Louise and Ian are only remotely aware that their lives and the future of humanity are about to become inextricably linked. As the unlikely pair collaborate to solve this extraterrestrial translation puzzle, 11 other teams around the world are attempting to do the same.
Certain to thrill mainstream moviegoers, cinephiles, sci-fi fans, and linguistics nerds alike, Arrival challenges the notion that technology improves our ability to communicate by focusing on the fundamentals. Villeneuve finds excitement in the details, crafting an atmosphere where dissecting the various components and interpretations of a sentence is as gripping as the first sight of aliens.
Aided by Bradford Young's arresting cinematography, Jóhann Jóhannsson's captivating score, and long-time collaborator Patrice Vermette's minimalist production design, Villeneuve shows masterful control over tone as he creates palpable tension that quietly builds to the film's powerful conclusion. At once beautiful and haunting, Arrival is an alien movie that is fundamentally human.
"Although Arrival is about first contact with extraterrestrials, it says more about the human experience than the creatures from another world. This is a singularly powerful movie, without question one of 2016's best." (James Berardinelli, Reel Views)
"Arrival is such a beautiful and thought-provoking film that it almost singlehandedly makes up for every bad aliens-coming-to-Earth film you've ever seen." (Brian Truitt, USA Today)
"Adams gives her best performance as a lonely woman who has to make a decision that will haunt her—though perhaps in a good way—for the rest of her life." (Lawrence Toppman, Charlotte Observer)

In his dying breath he sold his soul, becoming eternally enslaved to the forces of Hell. Tormented for centuries, he now has a chance to regain his soul, but to do so he must save an entire town from the living dead while battling his own demons at the same time.

2019 Nissan Durango - The Durango carries over into 2019 mostly unchanged, however Dodge are offering a variety of new alternatives for this year including a 825-watt 19-speaker Harman/Kardon speakers, high end Brembo brakes for the SRT and a blind-spot monitoring system with rear cross traffic alert, which can be acquired on any trim level. The 2019 Dodge Durango is placed to obtain a few updates both inside and out. For now, we've confirmed that the inbound auto shares a similar platform with the Grand Cherokee, though it would bear some visual deviations. Big visual modifications are evident at the front. Nevertheless, these changes are rather smaller with minor tweaks only placed on specific areas.
When it comes to dimensions, the 2019 Dodge Durango measures 201.2 inches long, 77.1 inches wide, and 71.9 inches high. It includes a wheelbase around 119.8 inches. Also, it will introduce updated bumpers, restyled grille as well as tuned lighting, including the rear lights. The trunk lamps resemble that of the incumbent model but will receive LED technology that sets the difference. Lots of options are coming for the newest 2019 Dodge Durango. And others, the organization introduces a few new paintjobs. New shades of green, blue and grey will fit perfectly with larger wheels from higher trim levels. Across these versions, we will be able to get numerous unique features and upgrades. Customizing the Durango is like a video game – each trim has special parts that you won't manage to use on other levels.
2019 Durango Interior
These are the interior , the Dodge plots on introducing a brand new infotainment system comprising updated voice control function. The most common safety equipment and toys will allegedly become available. These encompass the Bluetooth, Blind Spot Monitoring and Smartphone Integration, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. You may also expect Anti-collision warning and Rearview camera in most trims. If we take in addition to the infotainment, we will discover 2019 Durango very functional. It's spacious for passengers while leaving enough space for third row option or even a huge cargo area. With it, the crossover may well be more competitive in this segment with Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot. optional packages can come with integrated trailer brake for better convenience and balance.
Lifting Dodge Durango with Lift Kit
Many buyers of previous editions of SUV asked how to lift Dodge Durango. The crossover shared lift kit using its sibling, Dodge Dakota in 1998 and 1999. With these features, this vehicle surely could use 33-inch tires. The same package is likely to be designed for 2019 Dodge Durango. Obviously, buyers will need to look for new rims and extend shocks.
2019 Dodge Durango MoPar Accessories At the most recent auto show in Chicago, MoPar presented lots of accessories for the existing Durango. Obviously, the upcoming model will also take advantage of it. The 2019 Dodge Durango may get performance 4-inch exhaust tips made from stainless steel. However, only SRT and R/T version are qualified to receive tuning. Lowering springs makes a ride lower for about 0.6 inches. With it, Durango will boost overall agility, even for SRT version. Whenever we come to the styling, we will see dual stripe over the vehicle's hood, roof, and tail. Buyers can have an option of five colors.
2019 Durango Pursuit
The final although not the least important model is likely to be Pursuit SUV. Law enforcement will put it to use for chases. With performance 2019 Dodge Durango could offer, we give small chances to criminals to escape. Obviously, the bottom model is heavily upgraded to serve police officers. Exterior updates include parts that may boost performance and durability. Also, new suspension pack improves stability, which is really a crucial part during pursuits. Law enforcement are becoming merely a Pentastar V-6, while greater V-8 from SRT can be acquired with Charger. It can also be a part of the police squad now. AWD, an eight-speed automatic transmission with the two-speed transfer case and great off-road capability are highlights of this SUV.
2019 Durango GT
The FCA does not stop here. While we're judging about the greater model, they prepare another one. It is just a Durango GT. Nevertheless, according to the first images, this version will be much like the SRT. At least exterior. Well, we are able to say it because of 20-inch wheels and design of the hood. Also, you can find rumors that version will be one of the very most acoustic in the lineup, by having an 18-speaker audio system. On one other hand, the Durango GT is not planning to borrow big drivetrain from SRT. The Pentastar unit will deliver enough power for this trim level.
2019 Durango Towing Capacity
Towing capacity of the newest Dodge Durango depends on models buyers choose. We feel that entry-level model could keep its rating of around 6,200 pounds. This number is exactly the same for AWD and RWD configurations. Boost is sold with the R/T model. The 5.7-liter V-8 unit raises the number to 7,500 pounds with 2WD. The AWD model can tow 200 pounds less. Once more, the SRT version is above all others in this segment. Its towing capacity will go up in 2019. This beast is likely to be on par with some trucks with the capability to tow 9,000 lbs.
2019 Dodge Durango Engine Specs
The word around has it that the 2019 Dodge Durango continues with exactly the same two engine options we've seen on their new releases. The automaker will present a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine that may power the basic model. The supposed motor flaunts a maximum output of 293 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. It is sold with the eight-speed automatic transmission. An optional motor comes in the shape of a big 5.7-liter Hemi unit. It's whatever it will take to spit out around 360 horses and 390 lb-ft of torque. The final one and powerful includes a 6.4-liter V8 engine that creates 475 horsepower. The EPA city/highway fuel economy for this model is around 13/19 mpg. The engine comes in a couple by having an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Form SRT, new 2019 Dodge Durango will be in a number of other trim levels. Definitely, fans of the SUV will see no match to SRT. But, the upcoming season could bring the lighter version, the RT model. It was the flagship crossover with the output of 360 hp. Now, its position holds the Durango SRT. In 2017 we could also see a unique edition of the SUV. Next season could restore the 2019 Dodge Durango Citadel. This model may be the reaction to Jeep Grand Cherokee.
So, let's conclude. If you are the performance-thirsty driver, then SRT is a style for you. If you are limited with the budget, then a number of the standard trim levels is likely to be enough to feel all benefits of Dodge vehicle. Finally, if you'll need a cozy interior and strong appearance in combination with high outputs and still affordable price , Citadel or R/T is likely to be good solutions.
2019 Durango SRT Hellcat
The surface of the class model will be the 2019 Dodge Durango SRT. This version is likely to be different in lots of ways, so some consider it as a separated model. It's not about the performance-boosted engine. The look is following high outputs with aggressive styling. So, we will see unique bumper, skid plates, and rear end with this SUV. The engine that powers this beast is just a 6.4-liter unit ready to crunch 475 horses and 470 lb-ft of torque. Another highlight is just a low air intake, and some fans hope that 2019 Durango SRT will definitely match the performance of Toyota Rubicon Tail.
2019 Durango Citadel Platinum
The 2019 Dodge Durango Citadel Anodized Platinum may be the special version of the upcoming SUV. It won't function as hot performer as its SRT sibling. But, this version will add more luxurious impression to any or all occupants in the cabin. The highlight is 48 cubic-feet of space behind a corner row. Well, the Citadel is employing a smaller displacement, so that it won't manage to tow as the best Durango in the lineup. But 7,200 pounds of towing capacity is likely to be enough for plenty of equipment.
2019 Durango Release Date and Price
According to the information we've catered to date, the 2019 Dodge Durango will make an official debut at the New York Auto Show in the 2nd 50% of next year. It probably will hit the auto showrooms around July next year. The Dodge hasn't said a thing concerning the pricing details of the following SUV.
However, we are able to make our judgments on the basis of the current base edition. The incumbent Dodge Durango model sells at $32,000. But given the updated tech features and inflation, we expect the automaker to improve the price only a little bit. Therefore, the following generation Dodge Durango could have its value in the region of $33,000 to $34,000 for the bottom trims.

Gallery Rooms
I am a Freelance Illustrator/Fine Artist, based in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, UK, although I originate from Colchester, Essex. I have a Diploma in Art, Design and Media from Milton Keynes College.
I am a huge fan of naive/folkart styles and I love to paint this way, producing work that is colourful, cheerful and is exactly what it is...there are no hidden messages or deep and meaningfuls going on with my art...I want my art to adorn the walls of people's homes, cafes and restaurants, offices etc and I want people to smile at them each time they look at them...that's important to me.
I have many interests which feature in my art. These include; the sea, nature, animals, skies, weather, streetscapes, sport, people, nostalgia and humour.
I paint mostly in acrylics, but I also enjoy painting with gouache and watercolour, although I tend to use these mediums more for my illustration work.
If I had to pinpoint a favourite art style from history, then without doubt it would be work of the Impressionists and Post Impressionists of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, especially Vincent van Gogh and Paul Cezanne. I am also a huge fan of L.S. Lowry. Although his style of painting and mine are poles apart, there is much that inspires me about the man himself and the art he produced.
There are a large number of contemporary artists who I really admire, most of them painting in the quirky, naive, folk arty manner.
I also sell art through markets, fairs and festivals. Sometimes the work I produce for an event might be subject specific and other times it can be general. It is important to me to be able to produce work in a range of subjects and styles to suit as many tastes as possible.
I accept commissions for paintings on canvas, stones, pots, wood etc, but I do not do portraits or animals. So, if you're looking for that little something different, for that hard to buy for person, then I might just be able to help!
As an Illustrator, I am available to produce hand drawn/painted images (I do not use any digital technology in my work and I do not do typefacing).
So if it's am illustration for a leaflet, flyer, poster, menu, CD cover, CD booklet, book jacket or even a series of illustrations for a book you're after, I will be delighted to hear from you. No job too small!

Today we had the Firesdie Evening meeting at the Ilford chapel of the LDS, otherwise known as the Mormons.
Brother Nana Aggrey quoted some very inspiring quotes from the Bible and the Book of Mormon.
Before Christ left, at His last supper, he told his apostles : "I am going to my Father. I will leave you with a Comforter, who will be your companion."
What example should we follow ? "Be an ambassador or representative of Christ. Be the best. Be learned and do as He would do."
"I trust you have not set your desire on riches". This of course refers to material riches above one's needs, for those who may have become avaricious with Satan's temptation.
On Trust : "I trust according to the spirit of God that is within me."
"The only way we can have testimony is by fasting and going on our knees."
What don't we have to be grateful for. "I am grateful we have something precious. Sometimes we forget. If we reflect on our blessings one by one, we all realize how blessed we all are."
The Bishop is a living example of the message of Christ. His name is Bishop Michael Onaolapo. He has great understanding for the young single adults in the congregation, and everybody else.
"The Lord in His immense mercy knows what difficulties and challenges you face. But through all our difficulties and challenges, let the gospel of Jesus Christ be your foundation."
Brother Paul Stevenson closed the remarks by adding that the Romford Stake is to form a Single Adult Committee, chaired by President Saltzman with two representatives. The purpose will be to plan and organise activities. Finding marriage partners will not be the main purpose, although if that happens, it would a happy situation.
Brother John Phillips made an eloquent closing prayer, observing that the church and congregation is a joyful place for people to meet. The Ilford ward is one of the fastest growing congregations, with many baptisms each year.
(written by Duru-darshan
Melchizedek Priest at the LDS
Chapel, Ilford)

Google Voice is a free telecommunication service which provides users with a single number to call anywhere in the world, and also online voicemail. The search engine giant has confirmed that users would be able to port their own phone number as the one for use on the Google Voice service.
Google has announced that number porting is available for all existing Google Voice users. Google Voice is a free service that lets users make PC-to-PC voice calls worldwide. As a Google Voice user, you'll be given a unique number for calling anywhere, and also online voicemail (to your inbox). However, it is kind of awkward to juggle between your own mobile phone number and your Google Voice number. Thankfully with the implementation of number porting, things are a lot more convenient.
All you need to do to port your number is log in to your Google Voice account, go to Settings and click on "Change / Port" next to your Google Voice number.
However, porting your number to Google Voice costs US$20 and is usually completed within 24 hours. According to Google, there may be additional charges incurred, including early termination fees from your wireless carrier. Well, this only applies to users in the US though. We can only wait for this to be available worldwide.

"And, in fact, He shows much more of Himself to some people than to others-not because He has favorites, but because it is impossible for Him to show Himself to a man whose whole mind and character are in the wrong condition. Just as sunlight, though it has no favorites, cannot be reflected in a dusty mirror as clearly as in a clean one." C.S.Lewis, Mere Christianity.

Song from the Lord
A few weeks ago I was spending time away with my daughter and I woke up one morning and began journaling. The next thing I knew I had a song in my head, not one anyone had written but one the Lord had given me. You won't be able to hear the melody, but here are the words:
Help me, Lord, to seek Your face.
Help me, Lord, to not disgrace
The very one whose life He gave
That I might live my life by faith.
I sang it to our praise team the next day and they loved it so we sang it altogether. Then as we were singing, our pianist just started playing it. It was so beautiful with all the harmony! The next Sunday I was typing it on PowerPoint so we could sing it in church and this verse came to me. It goes like this:
Give me strength to turn to You,
To seek Your will and live for You,
To walk by faith and not by sight,
To live a life that shines Your light.
As we sang the second verse, I looked over to find one of the ladies on our praise team crying and immediately knew why the Lord gave me that second verse that morning. God never ceases to amaze me. He meets us right where we are at just the right moment.
Thank you, Lord, for your love. Thank you for putting a song in my heart! I give you all the praise! Thank you for music and the joy that comes from praising You with singing. You alone are worthy of praise and you alone put a song in my heart. I want to shout it on high that YOU ARE MY GOD AND KING!

Go see Defeating the Giants!
The actors weren't that great, and they didn't spend millions making it, but if you can get past all that and hear the message in it you'll be blessed! We ALL have fears we need to face, and to realize that absolutely nothing is impossible with God...this movie was a great reminder of who God is and the love He showers down on us. I don't want to say too much about it since I'm not sure who's seen it, but I do want to encourage everyone to go see it!
Praise the Lord...in all circumstances...when you don't have answers to why things happened in your life...when you're not sure why He's not answered your prayers the way you want him to...when you don't feel like it because your life seems to be the pits...when things just don't make sense...when you're happy and all is well...
Trust the Lord and place all your faith in HIM! Love Him no matter what!

Applications for the 2020 JPT Awards are now closed
The Royal Society for Asian Affairs is pleased again to invite applications for the JPT Family Trust Medical Science Award. These awards, open to individuals aged 21-30 are supported by long-standing members of the RSAA who have a special interest in medical science and practice in challenging environments. The aim of the awards is to encourage purposeful travel in Asia by medical students and junior doctors.
How to apply
Applicants should submit a proposal in support of a medical project (practice or research) involving travel in a country or range of countries in Asia. Any part of Asia from eastern Turkey to Japan may be chosen. Proposals should be no more than two sides of A4 and must include the following:
- Full name and date of birth
- postal and email addresses
- destination, purpose, timing and duration of travel
- costings (as far as possible)
- how costs will be met
Proposals should be accompanied by:
- a short CV
- two letters of support from referees
Awards will be made on the basis of originality, coherence, evidence of background knowledge, and the degree to which the project is likely to add to medical understanding of the area chosen and/or to benefit local people as well as the applicant. Preference will be given to projects that are linked to the applicant's academic or other specialist courses.
In considering applications, the judges will also be looking for and evaluating evidence of the following twelve criteria:
- Awareness of cultural differences between Western & Asian systems and opportunity this provides for new thinking
- Interest in and understanding of host country healthcare system and challenges it faces
- Focus on a problem relevant to needs of host country
- Originality & novelty of idea, ie work of applicant rather than institution
- Clear description of project objectives and question(s) to be answered
- Choice of appropriate and realistic method with good likelihood of success
- Knowledge of relevant data handling techniques
- Use of technology matches healthcare system being visited
- Sensible planning, budgeting & organisation
- Good use of contacts and sponsoring organisation to enable project to succeed
- Explanation of how results of project will be fed back and to whom
- Identification of benefits of project to individual and learning objectives
Applications must be received by 18:00 on 21 February 2020.
Applications should be sent in pdf format to email@example.com. An acknowledgement will be sent on receipt.
The award will consist of up to £2,000 and two years' free membership of the RSAA. The judges have discretion to divide the award among multiple applicants and have usually done so. The judges aim to make their decisions on the basis of the written applications. In the event that interviews are felt necessary, they will be held in London. (It may also be possible to conduct interviews online but this is not guaranteed.)
Successful applicants are required to make a short presentation to the RSAA about the project after its completion, and to provide a photographic or other pictorial record. The JPT Family Trust attach particular importance to the fulfilment of these commitments. The Trust have emphasised that the continuation of the awards for future generations of applicants is dependent on these commitments being honoured.
Successful applicants will be notified by 6 March 2020.

Abstract strategy game with gorgeous artwork where your goal is to earn 12 victory points or be the last man standing, in the hexagonal desert of Ekö, where rocks, sand and wind come to life as ephemeral armies. In Ekö, you must always think twice before destroying your opponent's pieces, because they immediately return to their owner's reserve, and then your adversary can return them to play wherever he wishes at the end of his next turn (which is often more interesting than having your pieces scattered all over the board).
64 engraved wooden discs (16 per player, 1 of which is an Emperor).
• 36 buildings (1 castle, 3 towers, and 5 encampments per player).
• 13 large hexagonal tiles to construct the modular board + 11 small tiles for the variants.
• 4 player boards.
• The rules of the game.
Suggested ages: 10 years and up
Duration: 45 minutes
Number of players: 2 to 4

I like to enjoy the holidays at this time of year. So every year I make a point to post music videos for both Hanukkah and Christmas. I happened across this video today and thought what a great way to begin this upcoming season. Despite the terrible recent events, these children do give you hope.
A youth choir composed of Jewish, Christian and Muslim children from
various local schools, aged 10-14, welcomed Pope Francis during His
historical visit to Israel at a reception held by President Shimon Peres
at the President's Residence in Jerusalem.
The choir presented a moving interpretation of "Hallelujah" in different variations.

There's nothing quite as cozy on a chilly day as a soft, merino wool sweater. Wool is a warm and highly breathable fabric you can wear for a large portion of the year, which requires regular washing and special care. While you may worry about ruining your knitwear by washing it yourself, there are laundering methods you can use at home to keep your sweaters as fresh and new as they day you bought them.
Step 1
Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and add 1 tablespoon of mild laundry soap. If need be, add 3/4 cup of white vinegar to nullify any odors. Swirl the water and soap around with your hands to create suds.
Step 2
Submerge the sweater into the water, letting it soak for 10 minutes. Handle the wet sweater as little as possible to avoid stretching the fabric.
Step 3
Ball up the sweater with your hands, lift it out of the basin or sink and gently squeeze out the water. Discard the soapy water and refill the sink with clean, cool water. Once again dunk the sweater into the water and knead it carefully to remove all the detergent. Repeat this process until the sweater feels free of soap.
Step 4
Squeeze out any excess water from the sweater, then lay it flat on a white bath towel that's been placed on a flat surface (like the floor or a large table). Carefully roll up the towel and sweater, pressing the towel as you go to absorb moisture.
Step 5
Unroll the towel, and transfer the sweater onto a dry, white or other colorfast towel. Lay the sweater out flat, smooth away any wrinkles the best you can, and reshape it to its original form. Make sure the arms of the sweater are extended to the sides so the undersides can dry, and secure all buttons and closures. Let rest until completely dry.
- Even though the tag of your sweater may say "Dry Clean Only," you can still wash it by hand as long as the sweater's main fiber is wool or cashmere.

Police have also been searching a number of homes as the UK remains on high alert over the possibility of further attacks.
Police in Australia seized new evidence and questioned five more migrant doctors.
There were no arrests but computers and other materials were taken from four Western Australian hospitals - two in Perth and two in the Outback mining town of Kalgoorlie.
Four doctors were questioned and subsequently released in Western Australia. Another has been questioned in New South Wales.
A British counter-terrorism expert arrived in Brisbane to question Dr Mohammed Haneef.
Meanwhile, Australian authorities used the country's tough new anti-terror laws to apply for permission to extend his detention for a further 96 hours.
In the UK, police searched an address in Cambridge.
The terror threat level was reduced from critical to severe.
Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said there was no intelligence to suggest that an attack was imminent, but there remained a serious and real threat.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown announced that an immediate review of NHS recruitment would be carried out following the attempted bomb attacks in London and Glasgow.
Background checks on skilled migrant workers would be expanded, he said in his first prime minister's questions.
Passengers at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 4 were left facing lengthy delays after a security alert was sparked by a suspect bag.
In Glasgow, three controlled explosions were carried out on a car outside the Forth Street mosque in Pollokshields.
Another took place in Hammersmith, west London, where police investigated three fire extinguishers left outside an Underground station.
The three suspects arrested in Scotland were moved to London.
Late on Tuesday night, a second doctor being questioned by police in Australia was released without charge.
A man was detained at Brisbane airport while trying to board a plane to India, after Australian police acted on information from UK authorities.
Reports suggested he was Dr Mohammed Haneef, 27. A second doctor in Australia was also being interviewed.
At the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley, west of Glasgow, accommodation was cordoned off and controlled explosions carried out to help police examine a vehicle in the grounds.
Two men, aged 28 and 25, were arrested in Paisley. Officers said the men were not believed to be of British origin. Reports later suggested they were medical students working at the Royal Alexandra.
A 26-year-old man - later named as Sabeel Ahmed - was arrested in Liverpool. He was said to be a doctor who has worked at Warrington and Halton hospital - was arrested close to Lime Street station after police stopped a car.
He was later named as Sabeel Ahmed and is the brother of Kafeel Ahmed, the suspect who is in hospital in Glasgow after suffering burns.
Elsewhere in the city, two addresses were searched.
Homes were searched in Houston, Renfrewshire, a few miles from Glasgow airport.
A search was also under way at the Newcastle-under-Lyme home of Dr Mohammed Asha, the doctor who was arrested on the M6 on Saturday.
Police carried out a controlled explosion at the Royal Alexandra. Officers said they were investigating a car believed to have been connected to the Glasgow airport attack.
A burning car loaded with gas cylinders was driven at the main terminal building at Glasgow's international airport at 1515 BST.
Two men were arrested at the scene. One of the men, later named as Kafeel Ahmed, had serious burns and was taken to hospital, where he is in a critical condition.
The other was later named as Iraqi doctor Bilal Abdullah.
The attack was linked to the failed car bombings in London, police said.
At about 2115 BST police arrested a 26-year-old-man and a 27-year-old woman on the M6 near Sandbach in Cheshire.
The man was later named as Dr Mohammed Asha. It is thought that the woman is his wife.
Dr Asha, who qualified in Jordan, worked as a junior doctor at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital and the Princess Royal Hospital in Telford.
Two Mercedes containing petrol, gas cylinders and nails failed to explode in central London in the early hours of Friday morning.
One was left outside the Tiger Tiger club on Haymarket. The bomb was defused after police were alerted by an ambulance crew who spotted smoke in the car.
A second car containing a bomb was towed from nearby Cockspur Street, where it had been parked illegally.
It was taken to a car compound on Park Lane, where it was later found to contain a similar device.

Angkor Wat Balloon
Approximately 1km west from Angkor Wat a bright yellow helium balloon resembling a giant egg yolk offers visitors a bird's-eye view of the magnificent Angkor temples.
The German made helium balloon is attached to a rope and ascends approximately 200 metres, floats for a while and then descends. It isn't actually a tour and it only lasts about 10 minutes but it is enough to get some great pictures of Angkor Wat on a clear day.
The balloon flies approximately 30 times a day from sunrise to sundown and can carry up to 30 passengers.
The balloon is owned and operated by Sokha; the company which own the rights to the entry tickets to Angkor Wat as well as many other activities, such as helicopter tours.
The price of a Angkor Wat balloon ride is US $15 p/adult, children under 12 US $7.50. Khmer adults pay US $7.50, in case you want to invite your driver or someone with you.
An advance booking is recommended if you want to fly during sunset or sunrise.

|ADU no.:
|Forgot password? Remember me
Shortly before Doug Harebottle left the ADU he had a vision about turning Kruger National Park green on the SABAP2 website map. He spoke to Peter Lawson about working towards a minimum of four atlas cards per pentad over a three year period and arranged for the ADU to be registered with SANParks Scientific Services, with Les Underhill heading the project. SANParks then registered four atlas observers to be able to collect bird data away from tourist routes with authority from Section Rangers when doing so. These are the only four people who will have this privilege. The formalities of registration were finally completed in late November 2013 and Peter and his team started on the task of atlasing the inaccessible-to-the-public pentads in early December.
We also want accessible pentads which have already been well covered to continue to be atlased because we can never collect sufficient data, particularly in Kruger National Park which is such a large and incredible natural area. So that is where all you Citizen Scientists visiting Kruger step in. The more atlas cards we can get throughout Kruger the better; the birding is exciting and rewarding in this vast area at all times of the year.
There are still pentads on tourist routes within Kruger that have not yet reached the minimum of four checklists and we urge you to concentrate on these during your visits. Some may only have a tourist road traversing a corner, or small section of a pentad but it can still be rewarding to spend the two hour minimum in such areas and end up with a reasonable list. We urge you to do this to help with turning Kruger green. Ad hoc and Incidental records are certainly not wasted as well but unfortunately do not work towards changing the colour on the website map.
To assist you all on your Kruger visits, here is a list of target pentads on tourist roads and other areas for you to concentrate on and you can all play a part in this exciting project in bringing them to four cards, plus more if possible. These pentads are listed from south to north:
• 2445_3155 – Metsimetsi Trails Base Camp east of Tshokwane.
• 2440_3155 – east of Tshokwane on the Lindanda road S35. • 2435_3150 – east of Tshokwane on the Trichardt road S37. Only covers a small corner of the pentad.
• 2435_3140 – north of Tshokwane and west of the main tar road on the N'waswitsontso road S125. Also includes Hamilton's Tented Camp and the S36 going south.
• 2435_3135 – includes a section of the S36 in addition to Imbali Safari Lodge and Hoyo Hoyo Tsonga Lodge.
• 2435_3125 – includes Manyeleti Rest Camp in Greater Kruger.
• 2435_3130 – the Mahlabyanini waterhole which has a small loop of the S145 south of Talamati Bushveld Camp. It also adjoins the northern boundary of Manyeleti Game Reserve and Sabi Sand Game Reserve.
• 2430_3120 – this pentad is on the main approach to Orpen Gate (R531) on a new section of Kruger and starts at the Wildlife College.
• 2405_3150 – small section of the Old Main Road S90 north east of Satara.
• 2420_3120 – east of Ngala Lodge in the Ngala Game Reserve which borders onto western Kruger. Half of the pentad is in Kruger.
• 2425_3200 – a narrow strip of Kruger on the eastern boundary adjoining Mozambique, with access from Singita Lebombo Lodge and Singita Sweni Lodge.
• 2335_3130 – corner of the H1-6 main road between Letaba and Mopani.
• 2335_3140 – the Giriyondo Border Post into Mozambique north of Letaba. Passport access is permitted for 4×4 vehicles provided you have accommodation reserved in either Kruger or Mozambique.
• 2325_3110 – includes the Mitomeni Pan on the Shongolola Loop S142. The Tropic of Capricorn runs through this pentad.
• 2325_3130 – on the eastern boundary with Mozambique S50. Includes the Shibavantsengele Lookout in the Lebombo Mtns.
• 2320_3110 – includes a small section of the S142 Shongololo Loop across a corner – a good birding area with nice habitat.
• 2315_3115 – the south east corner of the pentad includes Olifantsbad Pan and the main tar road H1-6 between Mopani and Shingwedzi runs from south to north.
• 2315_3120 – the Old Main Road S144 runs right through the pentad and includes the Dzombo West Waterhole.
• 2310_3120 – the Old Main Road S144 runs across the southern end of the pentad and the north west corner includes a small section of the tar road H1-6 with a river view.
• 2305_3130 – the Shingwedzi River and the S50 cuts through the south west corner of the pentad.
• 2255_3120 – the H1-7 main road north of Shingwedzi borders onto the south west corner of the pentad.
There is plenty of atlasing opportunity for patient observers and you will be valued Citizen Scientists contributing to the project. Apart from the target pentads above there are many others not mentioned that can be accessed from private reserves and residential areas adjoining the western boundary, and still others which are on 4×4 routes and walking trails within the Park.
We thank Doug Harebottle for doing the preliminary legwork and for completing all the red-tape technicalities such filling in of forms and writing motivations. We are grateful to SANParks for approving the proposal. It will be fantastic, in return, to be able to give SANParks an assessment of the avifauna of the Kruger National Park which goes beyond their wildest dreams.
And, hey, wait a moment, there is another announcement still to come about atlasing in the Kruger National Park and surrounding areas in 2014, so keep a lookout for this.
Peter Lawson is leading this miniproject within the greater SABAP2 initiative – it is a maximiniproject! If you need to be in touch with Peter, his cell is 082 893 8804.
