I received an email that asked me to look at the Christian Family Fellowship group out of Tipp City, Ohio. I did. The Christian Family Fellowship is another non-Christian cult spreading in the already cult-saturated landscape of America. Their website can be found at www.cffm.org. Unfortunately, the group is growing with fellowships in other states. I do not know how large the membership is, but it appears to be in the thousands. This group appears to be an offshoot of The Way International, a decidedly non-Christian cult since it denies the deity of Jesus.
The Christian Family Fellowship Ministry describes itself as a "studying, teaching, and fellowship ministry." It says, "Our purpose is to study and search the scriptures to understand their accuracy regarding Jesus Christ, who is 'the way, the truth, and the life.'" This sounds good on the surface. But, when you dig into the site, you discover some serious problems.
The Christian Family Fellowship denies the doctrine of the Trinity. On their website is an article written by a Rev. Jeff Rath (August 1998) titled, "The Historical background of the Trinity."1 In it Rev. Rath states, "The trinity originated with Babylon." He then goes on to attack the doctrine as an unbiblical teaching. He also states, "This polytheistic (believing in more than one god) trinitarianism was intertwined with Greek religion and philosophy." This is a misrepresentation of the doctrine of the Trinity which is decidedly not polytheistic; it is monotheistic.
Nevertheless, this does not stop Rev. Rath from trying to build a case in support of his false presupposition. Rev. Rath proceeds to quote early Christian creeds out of their context and sets them against each other in an attempt to make his case against Trinitarianism. Additionally, Mr. Rath even quotes Arius of Alexander, a false teacher of the early church, and Victor Paul Weirwille, founder of the cult, The Way International, who also denied the Trinity and deity of Christ. He cites numerous "scholars" and various works but none of his quotes contain any page numbers so they can be verified. He concludes his paper by stating, "In our day and time the doctrine of the Trinity is a cornerstone of idolatry."
Elsewhere, in the same paper, Rev. Rath quotes an Anthony Buzzard who says, ". . . we shall find not a hint that Jesus believed himself to be an uncreated being who had existed from eternity. Matthew and Luke trace the origin of Jesus to a special act of creation by God when the Messiah's conception took place in the womb of Mary." Rev. Rath then says, "Arius and his followers believed that Jesus Christ was created, that he was not in the beginning with God. They believed that he had a beginning, whereas God has no beginning. This makes Jesus Christ substantially different from God, which means he cannot be of one substance with God as the Trinitarians believe."
Without a doubt, the Christian Family Fellowship ministry denies the deity of Christ. This fact alone makes this group a non-Christian cult.
Also, I concluded from reading through the site that the CFFM considers the Holy Spirit to be a force like radar or electricity, and not a person. This would be consistent with their denial of the Trinity and the deity of Christ. Of course, in so doing they err by not affirming that the Holy Spirit speaks (Acts 13:2), has a will (1 Cor. 12:11), loves (Rom. 15:30), and can be grieved (Eph. 4:30). Certainly, a force cannot speak, have a will, love, or be grieved. For more information on this issue, please go to the Holy Spirit on CARM.
A summarized list of doctrines held by the Christian Family Fellowship, extracted from its site and other sites it promotes, are:
- The Trinity is false.
- Jesus is a created being.
- Jesus will return.
- Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary.
- The Holy Spirit is a force.
- The dead are not conscious.
- Speaking in tongues is a manifestation of being a "believer."
- The devil is real.
- Hell is merely the grave.
Defense of the Trinity
The Trinity is indeed a biblical teaching. If you'd like more information on this please go to Trinity and What is the Trinity to learn more. But, for a few verses here, please consider the following:
|Called God
|Phil. 1:2
|John 1:1,14; Col. 2:9
|Acts 5:3-4
|Is 64:8;44:24
|John 1:3;
Col. 1:15-17
|Job 33:4; 26:13
|2 Cor. 6:16
|Col. 1:27
|John 14:17
|All knowing
|1 John 3:20
|John 16:30; 21:17
|1 Cor. 2:10-11
|A Will
|Luke 22:42
|Luke 22:42
|1 Cor. 12:11
|Matt. 3:17
|Luke 5:20; 7:48
|Acts 8:29; 13:2
|John 3:16
|Eph. 5:25
|Rom. 15:30
If Jesus is not God, then explain:
- How was it possible for Jesus to know all things, (John 21:17)?
- How can Jesus know all men (John 16:30)?
- How can Jesus, the Christ, dwell in you (Col. 1:27)?
- How can Jesus be the exact representation of the Nature of God (Heb. 1:3)?
- How can He be our only Lord and Master (Jude 4)?
- How can Jesus be called the Mighty God (Isaiah 9:6) if there is only one God in existence (Isaiah 44:6-8; 45:5)?
- How was Jesus able to raise Himself from the dead (John 2:19-21)?
- How can Jesus create all things (Col. 1:16-17), yet it is God who created all things by Himself (Isaiah 44:24)?
- Why was Jesus worshiped (Matt. 2:2; 14:33; 28:9; John 9:35-38; Heb. 1:6). when He says to worship God only (Matt. 4:10)? (same Greek word for worship is used in each place.)
- Then why did Jesus claim the divine name, "I AM" for Himself in John 8:58? (see Exodus 3:14.)
Jesus said, "Unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sins," (John 8:24).2 The Christian Family Fellowship Ministry denies the true Christ and thus has a false faith in a created being. Faith is only as good as who you put it in.
Though this paper is brief, it should serve as a proclamation that the Christian Family Fellowship is not Christian at all. It is a non-Christian cult.
Follow-up note, 7/14/01: since the release of this paper, I have received numerous emails from members of the Christian Family Fellowship. Each of them was very condemning of my paper. No problem. I expect that. However, several of them told me that the Trinity was a doctrine of three separate gods and then proceeded to refute the three-god idea. This tells me that leaders who are teaching them are teaching the wrong thing about what the Trinity really is. Often, in cults, the teachers misrepresent the truth in order to make their own teachings sound better. Incidentally, not one respondent answered any of the questions about Jesus being God in this paper.
- 1. www.cffm.org/teachings/trinity.shtml
- 2. The word "He" is not in the Greek Manuscripts. Furthermore, only 24 verses later, Jesus said, "Before Abraham was, I AM," (John 8:58). If you look at Exodus 3:14 where God says to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM"; and He said, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you,' then you can easily see that Jesus claimed to be God in flesh.

Menopausal Mood Swings
Mood Swings Are To Be Expected
Nobody said menopause is going to be fun or easy. Sure, for those frequently experiencing PMS and those whoĺd like a surefire way to avoid pregnancy will certainly welcome this particular stage in their lives. But to gain what they want, theyĺd have to suffer first since menopause is almost always a painful process.
During menopause, youĺll gradually notice how your behavior and actions have changed. You lose your temper more easily and over the smallest things. The cheesiest movies make you cry and the daily frustrations in the workplace that you once had no problems tolerating have now become unbearable. One minute youĺre happy, the next moment youĺre sad. But donĺt worry about this because itĺs to be expected: what youĺre experiencing is just a typical menopausal mood swing.
Youĺre Not the Only One Affected by Menopausal Mood Swings
As mentioned earlier on, menopausal mood swings are to be expected and they may even occur daily. Menopause is a trying time for every woman, but what you shouldnĺt forget is that other people will be affected by it, too.
Your loved ones, the people living around you, and the people you work with can all be unknowing and innocent victims of your menopausal mood swings. Definitely, your words and actions may be unintentionally harsh, but you canĺt be excused at all times. Peopleĺs sympathies arenĺt endless.
Knowing this, you should now understand that itĺs also imperative you do what you can to lessen your menopausal mood swings.
What Causes Menopausal Mood Swings?
To control menopausal mood swings, start by making an effort to understand where itĺs coming from. What you and your loved ones should know that itĺs not something you caused. Mood swings are a natural result, side effect, or by-product of the menopausal changes in your body.
During menopause, your body gradually slows down and ceases its production of hormones responsible for fertilizing eggs and, of course, menstruation. As this is an entirely new incident, your body reacts adversely to it and your menopausal mood swings are the result.
Other Effects of Menopause
Mood swings are unfortunately not the only symptoms of menopause. There are a lot more and since most of them tend to be aggravating, one symptom can lead to the other and vice versa.
The changes in your body will make you feel strange, uncomfortable, and at times, it can even be painful. All these could make you suffer from insomnia. When you become sleep deprived, your body weakens and your stress levels increase. Mood swings could be a result of it.
Hormonal changes in your body can make you feel exhausted even though you havenĺt done anything yet. This could have a serious impact on your lifestyle and again, you could be prone to experience mood swings because of it.
Hot Flashes
Theyĺre called flashes because they only take place in a matter of minutes. But every moment is uncomfortable and again, experiencing it frequently could make you suffer from mood swings.

Noun - firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.
Verb - believe in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of.
Trust is the foundation for every meaningful relationship. As Martin Buber taught, "human relationships, at their best, involve mutual knowledge and respect, treating self and others as valuable human beings". Trust is a critical building block for successful inclusion.
But trust is not automatic. The seeds of trust must be planted, grown and cultivated. Trust must be nourished and allowed to flourish.
For inclusion to truly thrive we need to build trust between teachers & students, teachers & parents, parents & administrators and between students.
So, how do we do it?
Building trust in the classroom involves opening ourselves to new possibilities, choosing our words mindfully, demonstrating emotional consistency, and cultivating joy.
Those in positions of leadership must also strive to inspire trust by engaging in open and honest conversations and demonstrating a willing desire to meet the needs of those they serve.
There isn't a blueprint.
There isn't a how-to checklist.
And just because you may have earned someone's trust doesn't mean that you will have it indefinitely. We must constantly evaluate and reevaluate our own behavior to ensure that we are treating others in ways that honor their needs, strengths and desires. It's a work in progress, to be sure.
What are some of the ways that you work to build trust?

It's very eye-catching.
But there's one tragic flaw. The name is barely visible, being that it is a name signature.
Try making a blending option using the outer blow, slam up the size, and slam down the opacity and work it to your flavoring.
Also, if the yellow doesn't work, try using white.

A woman in California is in hiding after using Facebook to apparently confess to the murder of her boyfriend. Nakasia James, 18, of San Bernardino allegedly stabbed and killed her boyfriend after an altercation and used social media to tell her side of the story.
The police are currently looking for James who posted onto Facebook: "Last night, my ex was drunk ... was fighting me... hit me in the face... and I get the knife and stabbed him. Didn't think I would hurt him. Sorry, lord, hopefully you forgive me, and sorry, Dorian Powell. RIP."
According to ABC 7 news a witness claimed there had been a fight between James and the victim Dorian Powell, 21, who allegedly had been violent towards her, and gunshots had been fired prior to the stabbing. Whether it was a pre-meditated act or self-defence is unknown, however apartment manager Melissa De Los Santos, who narrowly missed being caught up in the line of fire, said: "I'm sure it was in retaliation [to] the victim," reported ABC 7 news.
The report also claims James' mother told De Los Santos her daughter "had bruises on her face and she had pictures of that. He was being physically violent towards her".
The Facebook post has since been deleted but investigators of the San Bernardino Police Department are said to be monitoring James' page for any clues to her whereabouts as well as any indication of the events that led up to the stabbing.
It's not the first time Facebook has been used to admit severe crimes, with one man in Canada admitting to killing his wife and family in May 2015, as well as another case in where a man in Florida confessed to allegedly killing his wife and even posting the photo of her body.

The diagnostic leds stucks @ 2leds... According to the manual and my own interpretation, i assume its either the Rams or the GPU....but strangely enuff when i tested the board with my old 6600GT Pci-e, i still get the same problem...... is it that my board hates my kingston rams or is it that the board is faulty?

ASPIRE is the name for a major redevelopment project at All Saints' Church, Lindfield. Launched in 2013, we are working to repair, renew, refurbish and reorder our buildings to meet the needs of current and future generations
After eight months worshiping at Lindfield Primary Academy, All Saints Lindfield looks forward to welcoming you to our reordered, redeveloped and redecorated church on 27th January.
'Come and See' is a week of events (3-10th February 2019) celebrating the completion of the All Saints Church refurbishment project. The building will be open throughout the week to visit and will include a range of events and activities. For more information, click here: Come_and_See
20th January 2018
October marks six months since Pilbeam, our contractors arrived on site at All Saints and began work on Phase 2 of the Aspire project. I'm sure you will be excited to hear that work has continued apace throughout the summer, so here is a brief progress update. Our new boilers, underfloor heating and pipework have been installed. All internal stone and plaster repairs have been completed and the new stone floor tiles have arrived. The new lighting system is well underway, along with preparation for the new sound and vision system. Redecoration will take place throughout the Autumn. In the tower, the Church clock has been removed for repair and preparatory work is in progress for removal of church bells. Externally, the church path has been re-laid using existing and new pavers. The work is due for completion by Christmas, though our services will not return until late January 2019. Please continue to pray for the project, for the safety of our contractors and for the church family as we begin to look forward to our return to All Saints in the new year.
16th October 2018
Work on Phase 2 of the project began in April.
The church is now closed to the public while contractors are on site.
While building works are underway, our Sunday worship services have relocated to Lindfield Primary Academy.
The church office and The Tiger are open as normal.
The final plans for Phase 2 include:
• Replacing the floor with new stone tiles and underfloor heating.
• Improving the South porch and West entrance to enhance welcome and circulation areas, including new glass inner doors.
• Installing a new purpose-designed and moveable central dais for leading worship.
• Introducing new bespoke furniture for use with the dais.
• Dismantling the pulpit and storing it in the Tiger roof space.
• Removing remaining pews and choir stalls at the East end and replacing them with chairs and new choir seating.
• Relocating the Kempe screen from the rear of the Church to underneath the west tower.
• Retaining the memorial chapel, reredos and other historic features.
• Upgrading heating, lighting, audio visual and electrical services.
• Redecoration.
The Bell and Clock Project has been running along-side the main ASPIRE project since its inception in 2013. The aim of this project is to replace and repair those aspects of the church which lie within the tower: namely the ring of bells and the clock. During Phase 2 of the ASPIRE project some overlap between the two projects will be evident in relation to the work on the West entrance to the church.
In consultation with relevant experts and interested parties we are well advanced in our plans for repair and replacement and are about toseek formal approval from the Diocese.
• Both bells and clock are in a state of considerable disrepair leading toincreasing difficulty in ringing the bells and to repeated malfunctioning of the clock.
• Expert assessment has identified the underlying causes for the problems and has advised on ways of addressing them. Any work to be done on bells and clock will require them to be moved out of the tower into a bell foundry and workshop respectively.
• We have considered a number of options for the work on the bells and have come to a decision to propose to the Diocese that a new ring of 8 bells should replace the old bells which are from a variety of eras ranging from 1573 to 1887.
• We have consulted with interested parties, as well as experts in the field, and have received their support. In particular we are grateful to the Kempe Trust for their time and understanding of our situation. Their interest
was particular as 3 of the 4 bells we are proposing to recast as a new ring were
donated to the church in 1887 by Charles Eager Kempe on the occasion of
Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. Subject to PCC approval we have agreed with
them to include in our plans an imprint of the wheatsheaf mark of
Kempe onto 3 of the bells in the new ring and to place a plaque in his honour on
the wall below the West tower.
• Thanks to the support and generosity of the church and village community and several substantial donations from individuals we have reached a financial target that allows us to to proceed with an application to the Diocese for permission to implement our plans.
• We shall soon submit our final Statements of Significance and Needs to the PCC with the aim of an application to the Diocese later this Spring.
• If approval of our plans is given we would then need to give public notice for 28 days before seeking Faculty approval. We shall then place any contracts with bell and clock companies and hope for the work to begin later this year.
Below is a few photos of the bells being removed:

I am so excited about this! Here is the official Ear, Pray, Love movie trailer. I read the book sometime ago and I was waiting for this movie for the last few months. I love that Julia Roberts plays Elizabeth Gilbert. The trailer makes me feel like I am a part of the experience and I have this special connection because I know the story. It will be very interesting to see how they will capture the vibe of Elizabeth and this profound inner journey she went on during the time of her travels.
The book changed me a lot and gave me a very new outlook on my life.
The movie is out:
USA 13 August 2010
Finland 17 September 2010
Japan 17 September 2010
Germany 23 September 2010
Argentina 7 October 2010
Italy 29 October 2010
If by any chance you did not read the book but you are tempted about the movie, here is a little teaser:
Liz Gilbert had everything a modern woman is supposed to dream of having - a husband, a house, a successful career - yet like so many others, she found herself lost, confused, and searching for what she really wanted in life. Newly divorced and at a crossroads, Gilbert steps out of her comfort zone, risking everything to change her life, embarking on a journey around the world that becomes a quest for self-discovery. In her travels, she discovers the true pleasure of nourishment by eating in Italy; the power of prayer in India, and, finally and unexpectedly, the inner peace and balance of true love in Bali.
Did You read Eat, Pray, Love? What is your opinion on the book?
Do you think Julia Roberts is a good Elizabeth?
Kisses and I hope to hear from You,

BK Hacken striker Kwame Kizito has revealed that he is hoping his pre-season form will improve his chances of getting regular playing time in the upcoming Allsvenskan league campaign.
The Ghanaian International has been in fine form since they started their pre-season campaign in preparation towards the upcoming season.
Having netted his first senior goal for his Swedish Club on Tuesday when they drew 2-2 with Vendsyssel, the player insists his aim is to get more minutes when the season commences.
Speaking in a post-match interview, the former Hearts of Oak striker noted, "I hope it helps to improve my chances of playing in the second part of the season.
"It was a nice goal when Dalla got the ball so I called and he suited me and I got it in. This was another step in the right direction for me and I am happy that the coach gave me the chance".
Kizito has vowed to continue working hard to improve his game in order to convince manager, Andreas Alm, to have faith in him and give him the opportunity he is seeking for.
"I think I am ready, I will work harder and I am happy that the coach helps me a lot".
"I want to continue to improve and this gives me good motivation for the continuation", the 22-year old said.
The Swedish league is expected to start this weekend but BK Hacken will play their first match on next week Monday against Hammarby IF.

Daniel Ricciardo has vowed to thrash Jean-Eric Vergne in 2013, proving he deserves to graduate to the world championship-winning Red Bull team. Once good friends, the Toro Rosso pair recently admitt...
Once good friends, the Toro Rosso pair recently admitted the fire of their rivalry had driven them apart.
"No, we don't see each other away from the track and we are not friends," Vergne, 22, confirmed last month.
There is a lot at stake. Mark Webber's Red Bull contract runs out at the end of the year, but history has proved that almost no Toro Rosso juniors have gone on to succeed at the senior team.
1997 world champion Jacques Villeneuve said this week: "Vergne needs to show that he is able to stand out; to be like Alonso or Vettel.
"Being a Webber is not enough."
It is for that reason that Ricciardo, 23, admitted in Australia on Tuesday that 2013 is an important season for his career.
"Yes, it is," he is quoted by WA Today.
"I think the best thing I can do this year is obviously try to beat the Frenchman convincingly and if it sets me up for a seat at Red Bull or elsewhere, I think that's just what I have to try to target."

Project Information
What is IGAS?
IGAS stands for IAGOS for the GMES Atmospheric Service (although GMES has recently been renamed "Copernicus"). It's meant as a bridge between the data collected on board civil aircraft through IAGOS and the pre-operational Copernicus atmospheric service, currently represented by MACC-II. Here you can see how the IAGOS data are already being used for model evaluation within MACC-II.
What is IAGOS?
IAGOS (In-service Aircraft for a Global Observing System) is a project using commercial civil aircraft to make atmospheric measurements as part of their routine flights. The scientific partners provide the certified instrumentation packages, which are then installed on aircraft of the partner airlines. IAGOS is establishing a distributed infrastructure for long-term observations of atmospheric composition on a global scale from an initial fleet of 10-20 long-range in-service aircraft of internationally operating airlines.
What is being measured?
IAGOS will provide accurate in-situ observations of greenhouse gases (GHGs), reactive gases, aerosols, and cloud particles at high spatial resolution, thereby covering the essential climate variables (ECVs) for atmospheric composition as designated by the GCOS programme (Implementation Plan for the Global Observing System for Climate in Support of the UNFCCC, 2010). The data are available from the IAGOS Central Database.
Where does IGAS fit in?
The IGAS project aims to provide data streams in both near-real-time and delayed mode (in WP3) to the Copernicus Atmospheric Service, currently represented by MACC-II in its pre-operational state. A major focus is to increase accessibility and interoperability by developing and implementing data base tools (in WP2), as well as to evaluate and harmonize the data quality (in WP4). The data will be used for validation of satellite measurements (using extended columns products developed in WP2) and for comparison against analyzed fields, as is already being done within MACC-II. Furthermore, IGAS seeks to enhance IAGOS measurement capabilities through targeted instrument development for the measurement of aerosols, VOCs, speciated cloud water/ice/volcanic ash particles, and water vapour (in WP5).
The scientific work done in IGAS is summarized in the figure below.

what a day
Yesterday could not have been more strange. I woke up to the news that an attempted coup d'etat was in progress in Niamey, then saw a Facebook post from a friend who'd witnessed the immediate aftermath of the attack on the IRS office in Austin. (The latter hit particularly close to home; that building is in my old neighborhood and my bus passed in front of it.) The terrorist* in question turned out to be unstable; the coup turned out to be real.
Then to top it off, on the way home from work, I got stuck in traffic that was apparently caused by an escaped circus zebra that was wandering the freeway.
You can't make this stuff up.
Since the ostensible topic of this blog is African politics and development, let's talk about the coup. Here's what we think we know:
- At about noon local time, armed soldiers witnesses described as "trained commandos" stormed President Mamadou Tandja's weekly cabinet meeting.
- They removed Tandja to an undisclosed location, which is likely some army barracks outside of town.
- Three soldiers were killed. It's not clear whether the three were allied with the coup plotters or were defending the president.
- The gunfire was mostly over by 4pm local time.
- The coup appears to have been successful.
- The military announced the suspension of Niger's constitution, the dissolution of all political institutions, and declared itself the Supreme Council for the Restoration of Democracy (CSRD is the French acronym).
- The leader of the coup is Major Amadou Harouna.
Second, and more importantly, President Tandja had angered many Nigeriens in 2009 when he dissolved parliament and enacted constitutional reforms that gave him broad powers with few checks or balances. Tandja was constitutionally required to step down from office in December, as that was the end of his second five-year term in office, but the changes he made to the constitution allowed him to stay in office for three more years. These moves were extremely unpopular; 10,000 protesters came out on Sunday to dispute Tandja's actions.
Clearly, this coup is the result of the ongoing political crisis. While I won't be so bold as to claim that the Supreme Council for the Restoration of Democracy has pure ambitions for the future of this mineral-rich country and its political institutions, it is important to remember that coups are not always bad things. They have been used from time to time as a means of restoring democracy and the rule of law. Such an outcome is not likely in this scenario, but it is within the realm of possibility.
For updates on the situation, I'll be keeping an eye on the Sahel Blog, an excellent source of information on politics in West Africa. You might also check out the BBC's Niger Country Profile for basic background information.
*There's a big debate in political science and policy circles over how to define "terrorism," but the definition I usually give my students is "an act of violence directed at civilians that is undertaken with a political and/or religious motivation." Based on what we know so far, this incident seems to fit the bill. Thank goodness he was not more successful.

Document Exploitation (DOCEX) Transportable Support System (DTSS)
The Document Exploitation (DOCEX) Transportable Support System (DTSS) is intended to support deployment and operation of DIA DOCEX teams worldwide.
In order to accomplish the mission, DOCEX teams must have capability to move equipment to deployment sites in a secure manner and conduct operations in a controlled environment suitable for various Automated Data Processing (ADP) equipment. Work space adequate for the work process flow of DOCEX operations is also required.
Packing, tracking, securing, and accounting for all equipment moved to and from operational deployment sites in multiple shipments/packing crates has proven to be manpower intensive. The process takes so much time that mission effectiveness is seriously reduced. Additionally, DOCEX operational processes require a controlled environment (temperature, humidity, dust, etc.) conducive to ADP equipment and a work area adequate to store, evaluate, and process large amounts of documents. Currently these conditions must be satisfied by the Command in the area of deployment. In many locations it is difficult for the supported Command to provide facilities that meet these environmental criteria.
DTSS will solve these problems by providing a securable shelter for movement of DOCEX equipment by air or sea lift and land mobility by providing the capability to be transported on a standard shelter carrying a version of the High Mobility Military Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). It will reduce the support load on supported command by requiring only that a HMMWV be provided for transport. DOCEX will be able to provide its own operational site (tent, power, and environmental controls) by erecting a tent that is environmentally controlled and powered by DTSS equipment.
The DTTS must be capable of being transported by air, land and sea. Air transport includes the ability to be airlifted by C-5A, C-141, and C-130 aircraft. Sea-lift includes the ability to be moved by USN and US licensed merchant ships, including container vessels. Land mobility requires that the shelter component of DTSS be capable of being transported by and operated from a standard, unmodified, High Mobility Military Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) equipped with standards established for the HMMWV.
The DTTS capability must provide storage space for DOCEX equipment during transport and operations, power, HVAC, and limited internal mobile operations capability to DOCEX when mounted on a HMMWV. Unit will be designed to provide appropriate power generation, air-conditioning, power distribution, and HVAC for environmental controls for DOCEX equipment suite operating in a standard US Army GP Medium Tent. The DTSS must provide environmental controls, power protection and distribution to enable limited operation of a minimized scanner system from inside the shelter utilizing power from the HMMWV 200 amp alternator kit. The basic unit shall consist of a standard mounted shelter, such as a S-710 with an integrated inverter and HVAC unit. A trailer will be utilized to contain generator and main HVAC unit.
Listing of equipment to be transported is as follows:
2 each--Kodak Model 500D Document Scanners;
2 each--Fujitsu Model 3906GX Flatbed Scanners;
5 each--NEC 6050T Portable PC w/Docking Stations 6000+;
5 each--Digital Camera Kits in Pelican Model 1550 cases;
1 each--Scangraphics Model SGS8000 Wide Format Scanner;
2 each--TC-100 Electrical Repair Toolkit in Case;
1 each--Bolt Cutters;
4 each--100ft Outdoor 15amp Extension Cord;
4 each--HP Deskjet 340 Portable Printers;
1 each--Office Supplies (5 cu. ft. Storage Space Required);
8 each--Trouble Light with 20ft Cord;
24 each--MRE's;
1 each--First Aid Kit;
1 each--GPS Unit;
2 each--USAF Personal Mobility Kit (Helmec, Flak Vest, etc.);
2 each--24in Crowbar;
400 each--Blank CD-ROM media in jewel boxed case;
5 each--Ruggedized Notebook PC;
1 each--Assorted small gear (5 cu. ft. Cabinet/Drawer Space);
2 each--1A, 10BC Fire Extinguishers;
2 each--Sun SPARCStation Voyager and YMI CD Cutter Units.
In addition to providing the capability to transport DOCEX equipment, DTSS must provide two operational modes, Stationary and Mobile. The Stationary mode is defined as when all DOCEX equipment is unloaded from the vehicle and is being used inside a tent or building adjacent to the DTSS. Stationary mode also includes operation of a minimum scanning system inside the DTSS shelter after other DOCEX gear has been removed. For tent operations, HVAC should be provided by flexible, extensible ductwork to the tent with control and status monitoring for HVAC and generators provided from the tent. Mobile mode is designed to allow DOCEX to move a limited operational center. DTSS must maintain environmental conditions suitable for operating DOCEX equipment from shelter and the operator position must be ergonomically designed for several hours of continuous use.
As a minimum, DTSS capability must demonstrate the following characteristics in order to provide operational capability:
(A) Maintain operational capability after fording 4ft water;
(B) In mobile mode, maintain equipment temperature within operating range of +60F to +80F in ambient temperatures ranging from -30F to +130F, in no case, allow stored or operating equipment to reach 150F. In stationary mode, maintain a temperature inside DOCEX tent in the range of +50F to +85F with ambient temperatures ranging from -30F to 130F;
(C) Prevent dust, rain, saltwater mist, and other environmental conditions from damaging equipment during transit;
(D) Generating/converting enough 110vac, 50Hz and 60Hz electric power to provide for HVAC capacity specified in this statement of work as well as 3Kw for DOCEX intelligence collection gear, accessories, and 8x7 5w lights. Unit shall also be capable of providing requisite amounts of filtered, regulated, 110vac 50Hz and 60Hz power from external land-line connection. Filtering and regulation must be adequate to meet manufacturer's specifications for DOCEX collection gear;
(E) 110vac 60Hz power shall be provided from unit's engine alternator to operate one Kodak model 500 scanner, one notebook PC with docking station, one 60W light, and enough HVAC capacity to keep said equipment within manufacturer's suggested operational environment range inside of shelter when unit is operated in Stop-Collect-Move mode;
(F) Unit consists of a shelter capable of being mounted on a standard variant HMWWV, with mounted small HVAC unit and inverter, and internal mounting for stowed DOCEX gear. All engines in unit shall be powered by standard NATO military diesel fuel or its equivalent. Weight limits for the HMMWV are not to be exceeded even with full gear and fuel load;
(G) Unit shall be equipped with appropriate safety gear, such as portable fire extinguishers capable of putting out a fire in the generator or HVAC system; (H) Unit shall also include a trailer capable of supporting transport and operation of tent HVAC and generator system;
(I) Power distribution cables, control cables, and HVAC ductwork shall be weatherproof between tent and unit, and complete unit must be operable in rain, snow, sleet, hail, blowing sand, dust storms, volcanic ash-falls, mud slides, and locust swarms. Power and control cables shall be capable of functioning after being driven over with wheeled vehicles;
(J) Generator shall have no less than ten hours worth of fuel available from its tank, and provision for mounting portable fuel cans (i.e. Jerry cans) for an additional minimum of twelve hours of fuel shall be provided on exterior of unit;
(K) Design shall provide capability, wherever space allows, lockable small storage spaces such as cabinets, drawers, etc.
(L) Design shall also include installation of a small safe, large enough to contain 50 CD-ROM in their cases, which is GSA approved for storage of TS/SCI material. Sides of shelter unit shall have brackets and straps appropriate for transport stowage of folding tables, tent poles, etc.
The DTSS must be fully tested for operational deployment and delivered with all required hardware, software, setup instructions, manuals,
functional description and operator instructions, and safety notices.

Five Great Morgan Freeman Roles
Posted by Melissa Locker on
Morgan Freeman makes a great crime boss. Don't believe us? Watch "Lucky Number Slevin" tonight at 11:30 p.m. ET. In the movie he delivers one of his pitch-perfect performances as The Boss who mistakes the unassuming Slevin (Josh Hartnett) for his the deeply indebted — and conveniently missing — friend Nick. Of course Freeman doesn't believe his claims of innocence, because when Slevin tries to prove his identity it turns out his wallet was "stolen." What wily crime boss would fall for that flimsy excuse? This series of events and the arrival of a notorious hit-man named Mr. Goodkat (Bruce Willis) forces Slevin to step up his game, find his friend and reclaim his identity before he's forced to pay a debt that could cost him his life. It's a delightfully labyrinthine murder mystery that is a must-see for fans of crime capers, Lucy Liu, or Morgan Freeman. And who isn't a fan of Morgan Freeman? No one. The man is a blazingly brilliant actor who can make the most subtle acts dazzle. Take a peek at that picture up there and tell us you don't know exactly what he's saying with that look. Freeman is frequently understated in his performances, but that doesn't mean he's not a powerhouse. There's nothing harder than delivering a look that says more than a thousand words ever could and that's exactly what Freeman does in movie after movie. You know where this is going right? Yep, a list. While we were tempted to include his role as the Mad Scientist on "The Electric Company" on the list, we restrained ourselves. Does that mean we get cake?
Here are five of our favorite Morgan Freeman roles (so far):
1. Ellis Boyd 'Red' Redding in "The Shawshank Redemption"
2. Lucius Fox in "The Dark Knight"
We are also pretty excited for his role in "The Dark Knight Rises."
3. Hoke Colburn in "Driving Miss Daisy"
4. Detective Lt. William Somerset in "Se7en"
Freeman's portrayal of grizzled seen-it-all cops cannot be beat. We think he does it best here.
5. Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris in "Million Dollar Baby"
"Lucky Number Slevin" airs tonight at 11:30 p.m. ET; Tuesday, May. 29 at 8:00 p.m. ET and Wednesday, May. 30 at 12:15 a.m. ET

Tampa may be a thriving cultural and commercial metropolis, but it also has its wild side. Just pull your RV into one of the surrounding state parks and get up close and personal with the Tampa Bay wildlife. Watch a hawk diving for fish in the Hillsborough River, swim in the gentle surf of the Gulf of Mexico, learn about Florida's history, or kayak through some Class II rapids while visiting the Tampa Bay area in your RV.
Surrounded by History
From the villages of Seminole Indians to involvement in the American Civil War, the Tampa area has a long, but well-preserved, history. Fort DeSoto park, situated at the mouth of the Tampa Bay, provides a glimpse into that history. Explore the fort ruins including the two British breach-loading rifles and 12-inch mortars, wander through the Quartermaster Storehouse Museum, or join a Civil War Reenactment. For Indian history, head inland to the Hillsborough River State Park for exhibits and artifacts from the Seminole Indian Wars. Both parks offer full facility camping with water, electricity, dump stations and laundry facilities.
Water Adventures
Boating, canoeing and kayaking are popular on the Tampa area's waterways. While kayaking in the Gulf of Mexico off the shores of Fort DeSoto park, water enthusiasts often see wild dolphin playing nearby. Inland, the Hillsborough and Little Manatee Rivers offer canoe and kayak trails that bring paddlers through unspoiled wilderness and glimpses of American alligators, sandhill cranes and red-shouldered hawks. All three parks offer canoe or kayak rentals and have full-facility camping for your RV with water, electricity, dump stations and laundry facilities.
Horse Camping
The Tampa area provides many miles of equestrian trails for horseback riders. For a place to camp with your horse, check out the Little Manatee River State Park where you'll find four full-facility sites for your RV and your horse. Sites can accommodate RVs up to 68-feet in length. Be sure to bring your proof of negative Coggins test.
Pet Camping
State parks in the Tampa area are pet-friendly. In the Hillsborough River and Little Manatee River State Parks, well-behaved pets on 6-foot hand-held leashes are welcome in the campgrounds and on most of the hiking and nature trails. In Fort DeSoto Park, leashed pets are welcome in the campground and picnic areas and on most hiking trails. Pets are not allowed on the public beaches or in the historic areas. However, dogs can run free in the dog park and on the dog beach. In all parks, be sure to be a responsible pet owner and clean up after your pet.
Because of the tropical weather, camping in the Tampa Bay area is available year-round. Reservations can be made up to 11 months in advance for Hillsborough River and Little Manatee River State Parks. Fort DeSoto Park allows reservations six months ahead of time. In all three parks, the maximum length of stay is 14 nights. Children under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

Well not quite… But we did catch up with Jon Bourke of Bacchus Sundays to find out how they're stepping up Hoxtons Sunday Roast game!
First off, why is Sunday your favourite day?
My reasons for enjoying Sunday are definitely opposite to our guests. I love the hard work and buzz of a busy Sunday. It's a different type of work to the rest of the week because our customers are so relaxed and have a wonderful frame of mind. It was important to find the right space to encourage a laid back ambience. With its cool and casual character, the Hoxton Street Studios suits us down to a tee. Also, Sunday evening marks the start of my weekend, so what's not to love?
Who are your dream Sunday roast guests?
Eddie Izzard, Stephen Fry and David Attenborough for the conversation. Marco Pierre White and Peter Ddorelli for the education.
What is your mum's roast like?
Very Irish, but full of amazing flavour. I don't get to eat that style much anymore so really enjoy going home, which is where I learnt to use butter, salt and pepper properly.
Do you agree carrots taste better cut length ways rather than chopped into discs? (Similarly mini square sandwiches are best too)
I think what is dramatically more important is the cooking of the carrot. Don't boil! Steam if you can't sous vides. Sous vide machines are becoming very accessible to the home cook now. We cut our carrots quite thick, then cook them at 68 degrees for about an hour in a vacuum packed bag – there's nothing rushed about our food. They taste so fresh and sweet.
We've seen a lot of home sous vide machines pop up as Kickstarter campaigns recently. We definitely reckon there will be a boom in home sous vide cooking next year if not sooner! (We know whats going on our xmas list!)
Last year was definitely the year for street food and pop-ups all over London. Do you think residencies rather than pop ups is a continuation of that or something all together different?
We are lucky to all be in one of the best cities in the world, so many great innovators, especially in the food and beverage industry. Pop up's have helped make great food accessible to a much wider market. There are a lot of successful pop ups that are trying to find more permanent spaces, I think this will lead to more 'residencies'. The Bacchus Sunday residency at Hoxton Street Studios has evolved because we are creating a new concept. We only open on Sunday, my favourite day of the week, we stay in a site once we open and there isn't a defined finish date. We are not restricted in our growth by the usual constraints of this market. Bacchus Sundays has global ambitions.
Bacchus has housed itself in a place with a bit of a shady past; what with it being a bare knuckle boxing club once upon a time and the Krays' hanging out there.. Was the history of the place a draw for you; taking British food back to its roots?
Bacchus Pub and Kitchen was a marriage made in heaven, it was the right site, with the right background for me to develop the concept I was working on at the time. British food, and the how the British public sees the industry, has grown in leaps and bounds in the last decade. There is a very strong British food scene; I am so glad and honoured to be one of the many people trying to champion it.
On the boxing note, who do you secretly really want to punch?
A celebrity chef-boxing match would be fun. I'm sure I could give Gordon Ramsey a run for his money… but only for charity of course!
Oh yeh just for charity. Of course lol 😉
So, you're off to Ibiza? Is that an excuse for a sunny holiday or is there a link there? (other than the fact a roast is an epic hangover cure!)
Yes Bacchus Sundays is hitting Ibiza in June! We've got a stunning villa lined up with views of Ibiza Old Town. Our thinking is to take a classic British dish and tradition to The White Isle for one special event this summer… We are of course going to enjoy a few days in the sun (and clubs) of Ibiza; it's a way of looking after our team too. We see Bacchus Sundays going global – Ibiza is the first installment of this idea.
We've checked out a few places in East offering up great roasts – what makes Bacchus different?
The Sunday roast competition in London has exploded over the last few years. Striving to produce something our guests will enjoy even more is really important, but there are so many components to any roast dinner, getting them all right is a great achievement. At Bacchus our 4 key things to any marvelous roast are good gravy, well-cooked meat, Impeccable roast potatoes, all accompanied with the perfect Yorkshire pudding – I believe the team have pretty much cracked it!
You've been quite precise with the cooking of your roasts, is perfection important to you?
Yes, striving to achieve perfection is a huge key to success. I believe in attention to detail, the Bacchus Sundays team has taken this ethos on and elevated it to the next level.
Lastly, what's your secret roast potato recipe?? We need to know!
Lightness! But how we achieve it is the secret!
Bacchus Sundays runs every Sunday (obviously) Midday to 9pm

Because we never seem to do anything by half, the last few weeks have featured more concerts than we've been to in months.
Monthly Archives: February 2017
I haven't been to see much art recently, which is an omission I really ought to rectify. To my credit, I did try to visit the Folger Shakespeare Library on a recent trip to Washington DC, but their gallery was closed as they were installing a visiting exhibition from Oxford, so other than a quick look at the Ashbourne portrait (not actually of Shakespeare) and an intriguing painting of Queen Elizabeth I holding a colander it was a bit of a bust on the culture front. However, I did manage a quick trip to MoMA a few weeks ago, but not to see any art – I went to listen to an audio tour about dust. Continue reading

Despite the sad lack of snow since last I wrote, we've been managing to amuse ourselves in other wintry ways. I finally managed to go skating on the ice rink in Bryant Park – something I've been failing to achieve each winter since we first moved here – but then Tom went one better by joining some friends to try out curling.

George Alec Effinger
Publisher: Open Road Media Sci-Fi & Fantasy
In HEROICS, Irene--like everyone in the future--struggles with boredom. Food, clothing, and all the necessities of human life have been taken care of. But, what does that leave of life itself? At eighty-two, Irene sets out on a pilgrimage across America hoping to find the answer. Along the way, she becomes transformed, both physically and by her interactions with other civilians all trying to cope with this new world.Filled with wry humor and fantastic symbolism, HEROICS mixes adventure and philosophy in a way both engrossing and entertaining. Of this book, friend and fellow writer Harlan Ellsion said, "It is the best Effinger yet…and for those of us who have been watching with amazement that is about as rich a compliment as you can expect from other envious authors. Damn him, he's good!"George Alec Effinger was a true master of satirical Science Fiction. Before his death in 2002, Effinger was a prolific novelist and short story writer, earning acclaim from his fans and peers, including a Nebula Award nomination for his first book WHAT ENTROPHY MEANS TO ME. In HEROICS, he revisits some of the themes and characters of that first book for startling, funny and poignant results.

Trivedi C, Misra S. The Integral Place of Dialogue in Social Entrepreneurial Ventures. Oral presentation at 2017 SciTS Conference. Clearwater Beach, FL. Jun 14, 2017. Dialogue Approaches To Build Bridges Across Disciplines And Perspectives. Online at: http://www.scienceofteamscience.org/2017-agenda.
This article focuses on the integral significance
of dialogue in the creation of cross-institutional
knowledge networks in the context of Social
Entrepreneurial Ventures (SEVs). SEVs are collaborative
and participatory organizational forms whose
goals are to address social problems and facilitate
sustained positive social change (Trivedi & Stokols,
2011). This research scrutinizes the process of intersectoral
and inter-organizational knowledge network
creation, collaborative capacity building, and local
empowerment in SEVs. Qualitative data from seven
urban SEVs in India and the US were analyzed to reveal
the centrality of communication in the collaborative
space of social enterprises and understand the critical
role it plays promoting social change.
Dialogue, conceptualized as a continuous inquiry
into the assumptions and certainties that constitute
everyday life (Isaacs, 1993), is key to developing a shared understanding of the social problem to
be addressed; and coordinating and integrating
the efforts of many different actors across diverse
knowledge domains. We find that since knowledge
of complex (social) systems is often gained iteratively
and progressively, it is critical to transfer and translate
member experiences and informal understandings
through written rules, oral transmission, and systems
of formal and informal apprenticeships. Effective SEVs
invest in creating learning organizations through the
creation of organizational routines and structures
that provide opportunities for dialogue among and
between diverse actors. Sustained dialogue encourages
the sharing of experiences and when used with
effective metaphorical language, enables members to
suspend their assumptions, articulate their perspectives
and express feelings, thereby revealing tacit
knowledge that is otherwise difficult to communicate.
Organizational knowledge creation through this
dialogic process amplifies individual-level knowledge
and crystallizes it as a part of the knowledge network
of an organization, allowing the discovery of insights
not attainable individually. However, the effectiveness
of dialogue as organizational knowledge creation
tool is limited by the nature and boundaries of the
organizational context. Organizational structures
that promote social interaction; encourage decisional
autonomy and personal responsibility; focus on group
performance; combined with strong leadership are
necessary conditions for fostering dialogue.
This research advances the SciTS field by offering
new insights on collaborative, participatory, and
communicative processes in a comparatively less
researched organizational form, social enterprises.

Local educators weigh in on both sides of charter schools bills including Mandarin
Two controversial charter school reform bills are working their way to the full Assembly after the Assembly Education Committee approved them at a Feb. 2 hearing.
The first bill would require a public referendum before the establishment or expansion of new charter schools.
The other would increase charter school educational and financial accountability. It would address the fact that New Jersey charter school students do not represent the demographics of their sending districts and would include a provision that would sign up all district students in a charter school's admission lottery.
Many public school districts support these bills, particularly the law requiring local approval for a new charter school. Under the current law, local communities have no say in the charter school approval process even though the schools are funded from public school budgets.
Princeton Board of Education president Rebecca Cox disagreed with making Princeton taxpayers fund these schools and said such schools should need the approval of the public they are affecting.

A Cambridge, Mass. researcher wants to take farming to a whole new level.
Caleb Harper, founder of the CityFarm research group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has built the first prototype of the "personal food computer" — a small, climate-controlled box that can not only grow food, but also collect, store, and visualize data about the crop being grown, the Washington Post's Matt McFarland first reported.
The project could mark the beginning of a marriage between two movements in agriculture today: vertical farming, or the sustainable cultivation of crops in tiered rows for indoor growing; and open sourcing, which allows the free sharing of agricultural innovation and data.
The idea is to generate information about the best conditions for growing a variety of food indoors, and to make the information publicly accessible, Mr. Harper said.
"We want to create an open source, digital recipe for climate," he told National Geographic.
Open sourcing in agriculture took root, so to speak, when industry giants such as Monsanto began improving crop yields through genetically modified seeds and other innovations, according to TechRepublic. Because the seeds and services were proprietary, corporations could — and did — sue farmers for planting seeds or using data that had the company's patented characteristics.
"It's a new spin on an old problem: corporate control and proprietization of otherwise open data," TechRepublic columnist Matt Asay wrote.
In response, the Open Source Seed Initiative (OSSI) was formed with the goal of ensuring that the "code," or genes, of at least some seeds would always be available to farmers and free from patents or licensing by gathering and sharing data about plant genetic resources.
Harper wants to do the same for data around cultivating food crops. In Harper's vision, climate recipes would be available online for free, giving everyone access to knowledge about the perfect conditions for growing any crop.
"Think of it as Wikiplants — a program that brings innovation to the intersection of technology, agriculture and free access to data," according to National Geographic.
Harper's personal food computer, small enough to sit on a coffee table, would be the tool to make it all possible. The machine uses an array of sensors to monitor environmental conditions such as carbon dioxide levels, light intensity, humidity, and acidity, McFarland reported.
Instead of using soil, the device employs aeroponics, in which roots hang suspended in the air, receiving nutrients in mist form. The technique reduces water, fertilizer, and pesticide use while maximizing crop yields indoors, according to NASA, which has used aeroponic systems to grow plants in the International Space Station.
The food computer would then gather this data, recreate it, and share it with the public, giving everyone the ability to produce optimized food any time of the year, McFarland wrote.
Harper acknowledged that the challenges to getting his project off the ground are considerable: "[T]he first [food computers] aren't going to be great," he told the Post. "It's going to take some courageous teachers and it's going to take some people to help me get it done."
But he's also optimistic, seeking advice from open-source leaders such as the Mozilla Corporation, and planning to launch his open agriculture movement in September.
"Everyone in the world wants to know more about where our food is coming from and how they're going to keep getting it," Harper told the Post. "There is a groundswell of consumers and young innovators that would like to make a big difference. All we need is the tools. My focus is on getting the tools out there."
