The goal of this R01 proposal is to use high-throughput DNA sequencing and genotyping technologies to identify genes and pathways that contribute to the risk for myocardial infarction (MI). Our research team combines strengths in cardiovascular disease, high-throughput genetics and genomics and development and application of innovative computational and statistical methods to maximize the benefits of next-generation sequencing technologies.
In Aim 1, we will sequence DNA from 1,000 individuals, 700 with MI and 300 controls, at ~5X coverage for the genome, and at ~100X average coverage for the exome. We will select MI cases with known family history of MI and additional cases with the earliest-onset from 3,100 MI cases collected by the HUNT Biobank.
In Aim 2, we will carry out MI association analyses based on sequence data from these 1,000 samples and an additional 1,000 samples (500 with early-onset MI) with publically-available exome data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP). We will analyze variants with MAF>0.5% individually. For variants with MAF<1%, we will use """"""""burden"""""""" tests designed to identify regions where clusters of rare variants are more common in cases than controls (or vice versa).
In Aim 3, we will use the Metabochip custom SNP array to genotype dense marker sets from 94 MI-related loci in 1,044 additional MI cases and 4,919 MI controls from the Finnish FUSION and METSIM studies. Using reference haplotypes from this project (Aim 1) together with haplotypes from the 1000 Genomes Project, T2DGO and Sardinia whole genome sequencing studies, we will impute variants into samples with Metabochip genotypes and perform association testing in 2,244 MI cases and 5,719 controls.
In Aim 4, we will select for follow-up ~200 genes that show the strongest evidence for association with MI from Aims 2 and 3. These 200 genes will be sequenced in an additional 2,100 MI cases and 2,100 MI controls from the HUNT Biobank.
In Aim 5, we will share data and methods to support similar studies for MI and other cardiovascular phenotypes, for imputation into larger samples with GWAS data, and more broadly across the scientific community. Completion of these aims will provide new insights into disease mechanism that have the potential to catalyze breakthroughs in MI prevention, treatment, and diagnosis.
Myocardial infarction (MI) is the leading cause of death in the United States. Despite nearly 2400 Americans dying of cardiovascular disease every day, little is known about the etiology of MI. Preventive therapies currently include antiplatelet agents such as aspirin, and therapies aimed at reducing LDL cholesterol, a risk factor for atherosclerosis and CVD. Improved understanding of the genetic basis of MI may improve our understanding of disease etiology, support identification of novel drugs and therapies, and enable better targeting of preventive and therapeutic approaches.

Fat burning occurs when the supply of calories (especially from carbohydrates) that we consume in one day is burned out. So for example in the morning you have breakfast carbohydrates like fresh bread, then decide jogging half an hour with the best treadmill under 1000 in the day, then the body will take the calories from breakfast first before burning fat. If it is finished, then it will take from fat. This is where the crowds are not aware because modern people are very generous in consuming carbohydrates although the work does not involve a much physical activity or also called sedentary.
So it's not when you're sweating or just fainting that fat burning occurs. It will be difficult to detect when our practice has started burning fat. We must regularly monitor the comparison between total calories consumed with total calories used. The only two options are first, increase the time or intensity of the exercise so as to increase the total calories burned. Second, is to reduce (slowly) the number of calories consumed from food in a day so it is always lower than the total calories burned.

What is stress?
Stress manifests itself when we're under pressure due to challenges or change, and we feel like we can't cope. When we are stressed the body produces more adrenaline and cortisol, which are stress hormones. This increases your blood pressure so you might sweat more, feel tense or become restless.
Stress can cause things like headaches or stomach problems if it persists. Mentally and emotionally stress can make it hard to concentrate or think clearly and you might get angry or frustrated. It can even lead to depression. If you think you might be suffering from stress, try one of these seven steps.
1. Talk
If you are suffering from stress, talk to people about how you're feeling, as studies have shown that verbalising feelings reduces the fight or flight response.
2. Meditate
Meditation is great for reducing stress. It only has to be 10 minutes a day. It's like working out, but for the health of your brain instead of your body. Apps like Headspace are a great place to start.
3. Ecotherapy
Otherwise known as getting out in nature (or going for a run!) Ecotherapy is becoming increasingly popular; the fresh air, sunlight, and greenery help you to feel better and put things in perspective, so get outside.
4. Shift your priorities
In his book, 'The Happiness Advantage' Shawn Achor says that many of us prioritise success (ie. work) thinking it will lead to happiness when in fact, there's no evidence that success makes you happy. He argues that in fact, happy people are more likely to be successful. If you prioritise happiness, you'll likely lower your stress levels in the process.
5. Develop mindfulness
When we're mindful, we're concentrated in the present moment, rather than the future or the past. When we're present we're less likely to get caught up in stressful thoughts and better able to carefully respond, rather than reacting. Being present is a skill you can develop, like strengthening a mindfulness muscle. Mindfulness meditation (like Headspace or those taught at Buddhist centres) is a great way to do this.
6. Make lifestyle changes
Look at what triggers stress for you and see if there are any lifestyle changes you can make to make things easier for you. For example, moving closer to work if the commute stresses you out, or getting a cleaner to help you at home. Don't forget the importance of sleep. Give yourself the best possible chance to get some quality rest.
7. Ask for support
Sometimes even your usual stress release can start to get you down. If your fitness regime is contributing to your stress, look at getting some support, perhaps through a running club or coach. For many of my clients, a huge source of stress is the pressure they put on themselves, so ultimately, take care of yourself and don't beat yourself up. A bit of kindness and self-compassion is often the best way to motivate yourself anyway! Check out these 9 ways to practice self care. Remember that you're loved for who you are, not for your achievements.

Northern Region FA Chief Throws Shades At Kudjoe Fianoo; Challenges Him For The FA Seat
Northern Regional Football Association chairman Abdullah Alhassan has fiercely descended on Kudjoe Fianoo for following his suggestion that Ghana FA president, Kwesi Nyantakyi travels more than a pilot and challenged him for the FA presidency.
Fianoo, who heads the Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA), has reiterated his determination to occupy the Ghana Football Association following Kwesi Nyantakyi's decision to step down from the position when his tenure expires in 2019.
Fianoo has been a known critic of Nyantakyi but he took his opprobrium to a new turn some weeks ago when he attacked the CAF 1st Vice by claiming that he must sit at the federation's headquarters every day to administer in the game in the country.
However, the budding football administrator reprimanded Fianoo for the assertion and intimated that he capable of ending the FA presidency dream of the vociferous former AshantiGold chief.
"If I contest with Kudjoe Fianoo I will win the presidency, he is not a match for me," he told Happy FM. "So for my brothers, I will tell them to leave the contest for me and Kudjo Fianoo and if I win the presidency they will support me to run Ghana Football," he added.
"Kurt should withdraw, Mr George Afriyie should not come out, Mr Fred Pappoe, I will beg him not to come out. Leave me and Kudjo Fianoo, I will beat him hands down."
Alhassan Abdulai believes the former Ashantigold Chief Executive Officer is wrong to run down an office he wants to work in. There has been a bantam of words between FA Chairman Kwesi Nyantakyi and Kudjoe Fianoo after the latter labelled the President and his vice travelling more than pilots.
Nyantakyi replied with a quote branding Kudjoe Fianoo as a small mind who discusses people.
"I want Ghanaians to understand that it's not good to run down the office you want to rule one day, you don't do that. At a point when we should be celebrating the Ladies after their triumph you rather bring up issues of Presidency," Abdullai added.

Whilst the weather is making it's mind up, I thought I would bring you something ridiculously summery to either A) really annoy you that it's raining or B) inspire you into chucking on something bright and floaty for your daily look! Now usually I'm not a huge floral fan, but I love a bright print on a dark background so guess what I have in store for you…
The babes at JD Williams got in contact with me and asked me to review one of their gorgeous summer dresses. I had a look through their items and immediately fell in love with this gorgeous Joanna Hope maxi dress!
Joanna Hope Dress from JD Williams – £39.00
It's no wonder this is one of JD Williams' best sellers! This dress comes in UK size 10 all the way up to a UK size 32, and I would say they fit true to size. I think this is a real high quality dress and well worth the £39 price tag. This dress is made of a really light polyester fabric and is so floaty and airy – perfect for a bright warm summer day! I paired this with my amazing beaded clutch bag from Simply Be, some old New Look wide fit sandals and my beautiful Miu Miu sunglasses from Sunglasses Shop.
The straps on this dress are gorgeous – three thin spaghetti-style straps on each side that cross over on the back (which unbutton too, if you get yourself in a mess trying to get in and out of it!). My fave bit has to be the tassels on the tie around the waist. Such a cute little addition that really makes this dress stand out.
So what do you think? Will you be trying this out?

Perceived Relative Importance of Content and Process to Effective Teaching.
Beck, John J.; And Others
A study was made of the attitudes of educators toward the relative importance of mastery of subject matter and mastery of teaching skills in teacher education programs. Three groups were sampled: 687 public school teachers, 448 public school principals, and 182 members of local boards of public schools. Responses to a mailed questionnaire revealed that 74.5 percent of the surveyed population perceived teaching processes to be of greater importance to effective teaching than was content expertise. An analysis is presented of these findings of opinions within each group, and comparisons are made among groups.

CNS Bulletin
Ric Fluke Jan. 1, 1999
In this issue
Another missile from Archie Robertson, To Air is to Err, this time pointed at the CBC, is presented as a "Viewpoint". Those who enjoyed his two-part critique of the Seaborn panel report in "Malice in Blunderland" will appreciate his thrust at our national radio and TV network. Another opinion on another subject is presented in a relatively long letter on the on-going topic of LNT.
We present a quick look at one of the smaller but key components of the Canadian nuclear industry in Nu-Tech - Maker of CANDU pressure tubes, which we hope you will find interesting as well as informative.
The major technical paper is longer than normal. However, the topic covered in Hydrogen and Nuclear Energy is topical and important. Hydrogen is being touted as the miracle, non-polluting fuel for transportation, but little is said about its source. This paper provides a detailed analysis of the potential synergy of nuclear and hydrogen.
A review of the approach taken at Point Lepreau to regain its once high standing in world performance records is presented in the paper Improving Performance in a Competitive Environment. This is followed by a relatively technical paper on a specific aspect of the design of a CANDU nuclear power unit which has great importance, Redesigned SG Divider Plate Withstands LOCA. There is a report on the Hearings on Electricity in New Brunswick and a short paper on a topical issue, Safety Culture - a view from the IAEA.
There are two reports on two quite different meetings: the CNA/CNS Winter Seminar, that annual gathering of senior industry and government representatives to review the status of the Canadian nuclear program; and the CNA/CNS Student Conference, a showcase for some of the brightest young minds studying nuclear related topics.
A number of items are included in the General News section which we hope that you will find interesting and not too repetitive from other sources.
And, of course, there are reports of many activities of the Society and its members in the CNS News section.
To whet your appetite to attend, the preliminary programs for the CNA and CNS Annual Conferences being held in Montreal this June, are included.
Finally, we hope you notice the various advertisements in this issue. It is our belief and that of the CNS Council that appropriate advertising can be of interest to readers as well as income to the Society.
We welcome your comments, contributions, even criticism.

While noting there was still a ways to go, Quadco Executive Director Bruce Abell reported that he had seen some better financial news in recent days.
Speaking at the regular monthly meeting of the Quadco Administrative and Non-Profit Boards, Mr. Abell pointed to improving financial statements.
The statements still show a loss, he said, but the loss was less than in previous months he noted.
"We're seeing improvements," Mr. Abell said, "thanks to the hard work of everyone. We've all been diligent, made sacrifices, and have worked to make this happen."
Bill Priest, Director of Marketing, reported that the Four County ADAMhs Board recently decided to provide some additional funding to serve people at Quadco.
Mr. Priest said in addition to the annual $90,000 Title XX contract that the ADAMhs Board awarded to Quadco at their meeting earlier this month, their board approved a $79,000 contract to provide more employment services to the people served by the ADAMhs Board through Quadco.
"It's been about three years since the ADAMhs Board has been able to provide any additional funding, but they've been able to save some money on some of their projects and they are sharing it with us so we can provide employment services for some of the people they serve," Mr. Priest told the board members.
Mr. Abell said he has noticed an increase in the volume of cardboard pallets produced at the center. He said he expects more companies will become interested in using cardboard pallets and that the increase in the production of cardboard pallets will continue. With higher costs for wood and the greater ease of recycling, he said the cardboard pallet is becoming the pallet of the future.
In action items during the meeting, the board members approved the 2015 calendar. They also reviewed the sick leave policy and decided not to make any changes to it.
The board members received the preliminary budget figures for 2015. The board members will have a month to review the figures. Next month they will receive the final version at which time it is expected they will act on it.
Program Manager Shannon Zellers reported on a dog agility program given to some participants of Quadco's Defiance Center and Stryker facility at the dog park in Defiance. She said the program was led by Karen Kent, who is also a Training Specialist at the Defiance Center, along with a number of her friends and students and their dogs.
Ms. Zellers said participants at the Defiance Center also held a garage sale during the month along with other people in the neighborhood who surround the center.
Members of the Senior Activities Center visited the Williams County Fair. During their time there they saw some of the prize ribbons on artwork done by Training Specialist Bobbi Schlosser, who works with them in Quadco's Art Club.
Ms. Zellers showed some examples of art work made during the month, including a wooden door hanging and a bear claw. In honor of the fair, they made a special rodeo plaque with the initial of the person who made it placed on it.
More Men's and Women's Club members took a trip to the dairy herd operation that some other members had visited the month before. Some members of the clubs also took time to visit the fair, Ms. Zellers said.

He's back and confessing is white pant obsession!
You might recall his original posts HERE and HERE.
Let me start off by saying a huge Thank You to my beautiful wife for a fantastic birthday weekend. I'm 35 now…..yup, 35. And Lindsey made it a perfect weekend…thank you babe! I'd also like to give a quick thank you to Nicola Mitchell for a really cool surfer / golfer birthday cake. Could be one of the coolest cakes ever. I don't think I use Facebook properly, so thank you also to everyone for the birthday wishes. So…that's the end of my Oscar like thank yous….and onto my Dear John….
I like a couple of things that I'm fairly certain drive my wife crazy. Beer and golf top the list. Then there's soccer and basketball and football. If there is a sporting event on, I'd like to be watching it. Even hockey. But only during the Stanley Cup. So this little ditty I've got on makes me feel very Ian Poulter-ish…minus the incredible golf skills. I sometimes hit a shot that is pretty sweet, but for the most part I'm fighting the course and still managing to have a good time (usually drinking too many beers) with the guys I golf with. I get a lot of ribbing from Hunter, Rich and Dave for being the "parking lot pro". I dress better than I golf. But hey..if you can't play good, at least look good (or try to). Well….thats the theory I adhere to when I hit the ball ob on 5 of the 18 holes I'm playing.
A few years ago at my 30th birthday, I was wearing some white pants and having too much of a good time. I'll say I was overserved (it can't possibly be my fault) and the worst alter ego of all time was born…Johnny White Pants. This version of me only shows up every so often (thankfully) and likes to have too much of a good time and stay up until the sun comes up….the party shouldn't ever stop! I'd like to think that I've grown up a little bit since that birthday 5 years ago, but JWP still likes to make an occasional appearance. Don't blink or you might miss him…but he's usually down for a good time if you happen to be there on one of the fateful nights that he decides to show up. *Disclaimer* The real version of me is NOT responsible for anything that JWP says or does….
I wish that JWP was no more, but thats just not realistic. Every now and then, the stars align and things happen. It usually starts off pretty innocently…a drink here, a beer there…hey, how about another one? Sure, that sounds great! I'll say that music is a big culprit in bringing out the best of the worst. There used to be a bar right around the corner from where we live called Tutto Mundo's. Tutto Mundo's poured some of the stiffest liquor drinks of all time, and always had dance/house/techno music thumping. That seems to be the combo that makes it all come together….a little too much booze combined with some dance music combined with some great company….and voila…JWP has arrived! I tried to make him go away by getting pink pants. That was definitely not the manliest approach, but hey…I had to try something. Fast forward a couple more years and I'm at it again…trading in pink pants for my newest…the plaid pants. I almost feel a little Rodney Dangerfield like in Caddy Shack in these pants, but I've got to be honest…they are really comfortable. Time will tell where the plaid pants take us, so we'll all just have to wait and see what happens…
I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone again in the very near future. Until then, me and my plaid pants are going to try and find that happy medium between too much of a good time, and whats just right…see you soon!
{What He's Wearing} Pants: VINEYARD VINES, Shirt: LACOSTE, Belt: VINEYARD VINES, Shoes: 1901 {sim.}
… a day in the life of Johnny White Pants …

Blogdyak is now The Pinoy Express
Posted by kenneth Labels: blogging, pinoy express
It's been a while since I wrote a blog post on this blog. As a matter of fact, it's been a while since I visited and logged in to this blog of mine. But despite not being updated this blog for ages, I was shocked with the amount of traffic it got over the past months. Well, since it's the start of the year 2014, I have decided to get back into blogging, and I am hoping that I will maintain this eagerness and passion to blog for the rest of the year, which I haven't done in my entire life. There are so much to blog about last year and I missed that chance to blog each one of them. This year will be a different story...I wish.
And to this this year long endeavor, I decided to change this blog's domain and title from Blogdyak to The Pinoy Express. Why? Though blogdyak has been this blog's permanent link for more than a year now and I think google has already indexed almost all this blog's posts carrying that name, Blogdyak is a lame name, a no-brainier name not fitting for this blog. I coined a new name "The Pinoy Express" as this blog's past, present and future posts will primarily be about what Filipino online users wants to read or are looking for in the Internet. Showbiz news, PBA game results and schedules, lotto results, subscribing to unlimited promos of Smart and TalkNText, gadget reviews and so much more.This blog will deliver all these content and more just like what an Express courier is doing. Hence the name The Pinoy Express.
I hope all of you will support this blog and don't be shy to leave your comments, suggestions and violent reactions they way you've been doing with blogdyak.

With a Japanese release set for this winter, Square Enix is getting more open with Seiken Densetsu DS: Children of Mana, the original DS entry in the Mana series. The title is featured in the latest issue of Famitsu, complete with story, character and gameplay details.
Children of Mana takes place in the land of Illusia, an island positioned at the world's center. At the center of this island grows a massive tree, so large that it almost seems like a forest itself. Years ago, a great disaster took the lives of many, but a young boy and girl saved the world using a holy sword. Time passes and, with newfound peace, the world begins the process of rebuilding. The holy sword and the great tree remain, and have come to be known as the Mana Sword and Mana Tree.
The story for this installment of Seiken Densetsu centers on the Mana Goddess, recently born, and the Mana Sword. It's the story of the children who've gathered at the Mana Tree.
We provided character details in an earlier look at Children of Mana, but Famitsu offers a closer look at the three main characters: Frick, Pop and Tumble. Frick, although a bright, energetic boy, lost his parents and brother in the great disaster. He was brought up to treat Pop and Tumble like siblings. Frick began honing is sword skills after having had his life saved by a knight.
The other two characters have some similarities to Frick. Pop, a small character who speaks his mind, knows no fear and does things at his own pace, lost his father in the great disaster and his mother at his birth. Tumble is of the same age as Frick, but has a more adult sensibility about her. She lost her parents and little brother in the great disaster.
As touched upon in our last update, Children of Mana features three primary weapon types: sword, bow and arrow and flail (which we mistakenly translated as "flare" last time). Each character can be equipped with these weapons, each of which has standard attacks, special attacks and limit moves. You use the weapons with the X and A buttons.
Swords are the easiest type of weapon to use. You can take out multiple enemies with a single blow and even chop blades of grass in order to find items. The sword's special move guards your character from incoming attacks and repels projectile weapons.
The bow and arrow is meant to be used as a long distance weapon. When you equip an arrow, the game displays a targeting marker, which turns red when a target is in your range, making it easy to aim. As its special move, the bow and arrow lets you inflict status abnormalities on enemies.
Serving as a middle ground, the flair offers both long distance and near-by attacks. In its most basic form, the flair is like a sword and can be swung at enemies. It can also be extended like a grappling hook to pull in items and enemies. This works across traps and can even be used to pull yourself up to walls.
Limit moves allow you to show off the special powers of each weapon. As you strike enemies with standard attacks, you build up a "Fever Gauge" meter. Build up this gauge to the max, and you can use your weapon's limit move. For swords, the limit move has your character charging forward, taking out any enemy in its path. The flair's limit move is an all-out attack against the surroundings, with the bow and arrow shooting out a volley of arrows at multiple enemies.
Square Enix expects players to work through the main Children of Mana quest in 25 to 30 hours, although this could rise as bonus features are added. Development on the title is currently at 60%, with the development staff now working on gameplay balance. All of this bodes well for a winter Japanese release, and hopefully a stateside release to follow in the not-so-distant future.

Side issue; the prices on the Canadian site are often horrifically higher than on the U.S. site so
buyer beware.

"You Are My Witnesses"
Highlights From the Book of Numbers 26-29*** g03 11/8 p. 27 When Loved Ones Do Not Share Your Faith ***
Reasonableness Is Vital
Of course, the Bible warns against bad association, and this influence could come from one's immediate relatives. (1 Corinthians 15:33) Many faithful servants of God in the past stood up for what is right even though their parents disagreed. This evidently was true of Korah's sons. (Numbers 16:32, 33; 26:10, 11) True Christians should not compromise their faith to please others, not even their relatives.—Acts 5:29.
In some situations parents or other loved ones vehemently fight against the beliefs of a Christian. Some may even become enemies of true Christianity. In such cases Christians take reasonable steps to protect their spirituality. Jesus aptly said: "A man's enemies will be persons of his own household. He that has greater affection for father or mother than for me is not worthy of me; and he that has greater affection for son or daughter than for me is not worthy of me."—Matthew 10:36, 37.
*** g92 10/22 pp. 20-21 What if My Parent Has Disgraced Us? ***
The sons of Korah set a similar example. Prior to the nation of Israel's entry to the Promised Land, Korah, a prominent Levite, led a rebellion against Moses and Aaron. The revolt, however, was quickly squashed when Korah and his followers were executed by an earthquake and by fire from heaven. Interestingly, though, Korah's sons survived. (Numbers 26:9-11) It seems that they did not side with their father in this rebellion. No doubt these sons of Korah felt disgraced by their father's wicked course. But Jehovah blessed Korah's descendants because they stuck to his Law. Among the most beautiful expressions found in the Bible are words penned by the sons of Korah.—See Psalms 45, 48, 84, 85, 87, and 88.
Like Josiah, Hezekiah, and the sons of Korah, many Christian youths today have proved to be different from wayward parents. Consider a teenager we will call Maxwell. His parents were once faithful Witnesses of Jehovah but became apostate opposers of Christianity. On one occasion his parents carried banners and demonstrated outside the grounds of a Christian convention that Maxwell was attending. "It was very embarrassing," he explains. "Some who didn't know that they were my parents said to me, 'Have you seen those stupid apostates outside?'" However, Maxwell did not follow his parents' rebellious course. And with the support of faithful family members and other Christian associates, he has been able to cope with feelings of embarrassment and shame.
*** w13 6/15 pp. 10-11 pars. 14-15 Appreciate Jehovah's Qualities to the Full ***
14 The five sisters approached Moses and asked him: "Why should the name of our father be taken away from the midst of his family because he had no son?" They pleaded: "O give us a possession in the midst of our father's brothers." Did Moses react by saying, 'There are no exceptions to the rule'? No, he "presented their case before Jehovah." (Num. 27:2-5) What was the response? Jehovah told Moses: "The daughters of Zelophehad are speaking right. By all means you should give them the possession of an inheritance in the midst of their father's brothers, and you must cause their father's inheritance to pass to them." Jehovah went further. He turned the exception into a rule, instructing Moses: "In case any man should die without his having a son, you must then cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter." (Num. 27:6-8; Josh. 17:1-6) From then on, all Israelite women who faced the same plight would be protected.
15 What a kind and impartial decision that was! Jehovah treated these women, who were in a vulnerable position, with dignity, as he did Israelites who had more favorable circumstances. (Ps. 68:5) This is just one of many Bible accounts that illustrate this heartwarming truth: Jehovah treats all of his servants with impartiality.—1 Sam. 16:1-13; Acts 10:30-35, 44-48.
*** w13 2/1 p. 5 Moses—A Man of Humility ***
WHAT ARE THE LESSONS FOR US? We never want to let power, authority, or natural ability go to our head. Remember: In order to be useful to Jehovah, our humility should always exceed our ability. (1 Samuel 15:17) When we are truly humble, we will strive to apply the Bible's wise advice: "Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon your own understanding."—Proverbs 3:5, 6.
Moses' example also teaches us not to place too much importance on our status or authority.
Do we benefit from imitating Moses' example of humility? Without question! When we cultivate genuine humility, we make life easier for the people around us, endearing ourselves to them. More important, we endear ourselves to Jehovah God, who himself displays this beautiful quality. (Psalm 18:35) "God opposes the haughty ones, but he gives undeserved kindness to the humble ones." (1 Peter 5:5) What a compelling reason to imitate the humility of Moses!
*** w07 4/1 p. 17 Offering Sacrifices That Please God ***
Offerings and Sacrifices in True Worship
When the nation of Israel was formed, Jehovah gave explicit instructions about the way he wanted the Israelites to worship him, and this included offerings and sacrifices. (Numbers, chapters 28 and 29) Some of the offerings were of the fruit of the earth; others involved sacrificing such animals as bulls, sheep, goats, pigeons, and turtledoves. (Leviticus 1:3, 5, 10, 14; 23:10-18; Numbers 15:1-7; 28:7) There were whole burnt offerings that were to be entirely consumed in fire. (Exodus 29:38-42) There were also communion sacrifices, in which those who offered them participated by eating from that which was sacrificed to God.—Leviticus 19:5-8.
All the offerings and sacrifices that were made to God under the Mosaic Law were a way of worshipping God and recognizing him as the Sovereign of the universe. Through such sacrifices, the Israelites expressed their gratitude to Jehovah for his blessing and protection as well as gained forgiveness for their sins. As long as they were faithful in observing Jehovah's requirements for worship, they were greatly blessed.—Proverbs 3:9, 10.
*** w07 1/1 pp. 24-25 par. 17 "You Must Become Nothing but Joyful" ***
17 It is noteworthy that during this ancient festival, 70 bulls were offered. (Numbers 29:12-34) The number 70 represents 7 multiplied by 10, numbers that in the Bible represent heavenly and earthly perfection. Hence, the sacrifice of Jesus will benefit faithful ones from all 70 families of mankind that descended from Noah. (Genesis 10:1-29) In harmony with that, in our time the ingathering has widened out to include individuals from all nations who exercise faith in Jesus and have the hope of living on a paradise earth.
*** w78 9/1 p. 14 The Sermon on the Mount—"When Fasting, Grease Your Head" ***
Fasting was not mentioned specifically in God's law through Moses. But the Law did command that on the Day of Atonement the Israelites "afflict" themselves, which is understood to mean fasting. (Lev. 23:27; Num. 29:7; see also Leviticus 16:29-31, Jerusalem Bible; compare Psalm 35:13; Isaiah 58:3, 5.) Though this was the only public fast required by the Mosaic law, the Israelites observed many others. They fasted publicly on anniversaries of national disasters and during times of drought, scarcity of crops, pestilence and war.—Zech. 7:5; 8:19.
Jesus began his counsel about abstinence from food by saying: "When you are fasting, stop becoming sad-faced like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting."—Matt. 6:16a.
Jesus never commanded his disciples to fast, and they were known as not doing so on any regular basis. (Matt. 9:14, 15) On the other hand, the Son of God did not direct his followers to avoid the practice altogether. The expression, "when you are fasting," indicates that some of his disciples would fast on special occasions.—See Acts 13:2, 3; 14:23.
*** it-2 p. 525 Offerings ***
Burnt offerings. Burnt offerings were presented in their entirety to God; no part of the animal being retained by the worshiper. (Compare Jg 11:30, 31, 39, 40.) They constituted an appeal to Jehovah to accept, or to signify acceptance of, the sin offering that sometimes accompanied them. As a "burnt offering" Jesus Christ gave himself wholly, fully.
Occasions for burnt offerings, and their features:
(1) Regular times offered: Every morning and evening (Ex 29:38-42; Le 6:8-13; Nu 28:3-8); every Sabbath day (Nu 28:9, 10); first day of month (Nu 10:10); Passover and seven days of Festival of Unfermented Cakes (Le 23:6-8; Nu 28:16-19, 24); Day of Atonement (Le 16:3, 5, 29, 30; Nu 29:7-11); Pentecost (Le 23:16-18; Nu 28:26-31); each day of Festival of Booths.—Nu 29:12-39.
*** si p. 34 par. 29 Bible Book Number 4—Numbers ***
29 Jehovah now commands Moses and Eleazar to take a census of the people again, as had been done nearly 39 years earlier at Mount Sinai. The final count shows that there has been no increase in their ranks. On the contrary, there are 1,820 fewer men registered. None remain that had been registered at Sinai for army service, except Joshua and Caleb. As Jehovah had indicated would happen, all of them had died in the wilderness. Jehovah next gives instructions concerning the division of the land as an inheritance. He repeats that Moses will not enter the Land of Promise because of his failure to sanctify Jehovah at the waters of Meribah. (20:13; 27:14, footnotes) Joshua is commissioned as successor to Moses.
*** it-1 pp. 358-359 Boundary ***
Israel's Tribal Boundaries. (MAP, Vol. 1, p. 744) At the time of Israel's conquest of the Promised Land, the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half tribe of Manasseh had been granted the right to receive their inheritance of land "from the side of the Jordan toward the sunrising." (Nu 32:1-5, 19, 33-42; 34:14, 15; Jos 13:8-13, 15-32) Following six years of warfare in subduing the Canaanites, the time came for determining the tribal boundaries W of the Jordan for the other nine tribes and the remaining half tribe of Manasseh. Joshua, Eleazar the priest, and one chieftain out of each tribe were appointed by Jehovah to serve as a land committee overseeing the distribution. (Nu 34:13-29; Jos 14:1) The procedure followed was according to God's earlier command to Moses: "According to the great number you should increase one's inheritance, and according to the fewness you should reduce one's inheritance. Each one's inheritance should be given in proportion to his registered ones. Only by the lot should the land be apportioned."—Nu 26:52-56; 33:53, 54.
It thus appears that the distribution of the land among the tribes was governed by two factors: the result of the casting of the lot, and the size of the tribe. The lot may have established only the approximate location of the land inheritance each tribe would have, thus designating an inheritance in one section or another of the land, such as to the N or S, E or W, along the coastal plain, or in the mountainous region. The decision of the lot proceeded from Jehovah and hence would serve to prevent jealousy or quarreling among the tribes. (Pr 16:33) By this means God would also guide matters so that the situation of each tribe would fall in accordance with the inspired deathbed prophecy of the patriarch Jacob recorded at Genesis 49:1-33.
After the casting of the lot had determined the geographic location of a tribe, it would then be necessary to determine the extent of its territory on the basis of the second factor: its proportionate size. "You must apportion the land to yourselves as a possession by lot according to your families. To the populous one you should increase his inheritance, and to the sparse one you should reduce his inheritance. To where the lot will come out for him, there it will become his." (Nu 33:54) The decision of the lot as to the basic geographic location would stand, but adjustment could be made as to the size of the inheritance. Thus, when Judah's territory was found to be too large, its land area was reduced by assigning portions of it to the tribe of Simeon.—Jos 19:9.
The increasing or decreasing of the inheritance does not seem to have been merely on the basis of land area, for the tribe of Dan, though second most populous, received one of the smaller portions as to actual dimensions. Other factors, such as the number of cities, the type of land, and the quality of the soil, may have been considered.—Compare Jos 17:14-18.
*** w02 12/1 p. 12 What Joshua Remembered ***
Commissioned as Moses' Successor
When Moses' death drew near, he asked God to appoint his successor so that Israel might not become "like sheep that have no shepherd." Jehovah's response? Joshua, "a man in whom there is spirit," was to be commissioned before all the assembly. They were to listen to him. What a recommendation! Jehovah had seen Joshua's faith and ability. Israel's leadership could not have been entrusted to more qualified hands. (Numbers 27:15-20) Still, Moses knew that Joshua faced enormous challenges. So Moses urged his successor to be "courageous and strong," for Jehovah would continue with him.—Deuteronomy 31:7, 8.
*** it-2 p. 528 Offerings ***
Drink offerings. Drink offerings were presented along with most of the other offerings, especially after the Israelites had settled in the Promised Land. (Nu 15:2, 5, 8-10) This consisted of wine ("intoxicating liquor") and was poured out on the altar. (Nu 28:7, 14; compare Ex 30:9; Nu 15:10.)
*** gt chap. 31 Plucking Grain on the Sabbath ***
Providing another example, Jesus says: "Have you not read in the Law that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple treat the sabbath as not sacred and continue guiltless?" Yes, even on the Sabbath the priests carry on butchering and other work at the temple in preparing animal sacrifices! "But I tell you," Jesus says, "that something greater than the temple is here."
*** it-2 p. 598 Pentecost ***
There is a slight difference in description of the other offerings (aside from the communion offering) in the account at Numbers 28:27-30. Instead of seven lambs, one young bull, two rams, and one kid of the goats, as at Leviticus 23:18, 19, it calls for seven lambs, two young bulls, one ram, and one kid of the goats. Jewish commentators say that the passage in Leviticus refers to the sacrifice to accompany the wave loaves, and the one in Numbers to the properly appointed sacrifice of the festival, so that both were offered. Supporting this, Josephus, in describing the sacrifices on Pentecost day, first mentions the two lambs of the communion offering, then combines the remaining offerings, enumerating three calves, two rams (evidently a transcriber's error for three), 14 lambs, and two kids. (Jewish Antiquities, III, 253 [x, 6]) The day was a holy convention, a sabbath day.—Le 23:21; Nu 28:26.
*** it-1 p. 765 Ethanim ***
Ethanim was also a month of festivals. The first day was the "day of the trumpet blast." (Le 23:24; Nu 29:1) Since each new moon was normally announced with a trumpet blast, this day likely was one of additional or extensive trumpeting. (Nu 10:10)
*** it-1 p. 213 Atonement Day ***
The Atonement Day was a time of holy convention and of fasting, as is indicated by the fact that the people were then to 'afflict their souls.' This was the only fast enjoined under the Mosaic Law. It was also a sabbath, a time to abstain from regular labors.—Le 16:29-31; 23:26-32; Nu 29:7; Ac 27:9.
No. 1: Numbers 27:15–28:10 (4 min. or less)(Numbers 27:15-28:10) Moses said to Jehovah: 16 "Let Jehovah, the God of the spirit of all people, appoint over the assembly a man 17 who will go out and come in before them and who will lead them out and bring them in, so that Jehovah's assembly may not become like sheep that have no shepherd." 18 So Jehovah said to Moses: "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom there is spirit, and lay your hand on him. 19 Then stand him before El•e•a′zar the priest and before all the assembly, and you must commission him before their eyes. 20 You are to confer some of your authority on him, so that all the assembly of the Israelites may listen to him. 21 He will stand before El•e•a′zar the priest, who will inquire in his behalf by the judgment of the U′rim before Jehovah. At his order they will go out and at his order they will come in, he and all the Israelites with him and all the assembly." 22 So Moses did just as Jehovah had commanded him. He took Joshua and stood him before El•e•a′zar the priest and before all the assembly, 23 and he laid his hands on him and commissioned him, just as Jehovah had spoken through Moses. 28 Jehovah next said to Moses: 2 "Command the Israelites and tell them, 'You should take care that you present to me my offering, my bread. My offerings by fire as a pleasing aroma to me must be made at their appointed times.' 3 "And say to them, 'This is the offering made by fire that you will present to Jehovah: two sound year-old male lambs a day as a burnt offering regularly. 4 The one male lamb you will offer in the morning, and the other male lamb you will offer at twilight, 5 together with a tenth of an e′phah of fine flour mixed with a fourth of a hin of beaten oil as a grain offering. 6 It is a regular burnt offering, which was established at Mount Si′nai as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to Jehovah, 7 along with its drink offering, a fourth of a hin for each male lamb. Pour out the alcoholic drink in the holy place as a drink offering to Jehovah. 8 And you will offer the other male lamb at twilight. With the same grain offering as that made in the morning and with its same drink offering, you will present it as an offering made by fire as a pleasing aroma to Jehovah. 9 "'However, on the Sabbath day, the offering should be two sound year-old male lambs and two tenths of an e′phah measure of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, together with its drink offering. 10 This is the burnt offering for the Sabbath, along with the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.
No. 2: God Did Not Create the Devil—rs p. 363 ¶2 (5 min.)rs p. 363 ¶2 Satan the Devil
All of Jehovah's works are perfect; he is not the author of unrighteousness; so he did not create anyone wicked. (Deut. 32:4; Ps. 5:4) The one who became Satan was originally a perfect spirit son of God. When saying that the Devil "did not stand fast in the truth," Jesus indicated that at one time that one was "in the truth." (John 8:44) But, as is true of all of God's intelligent creatures, this spirit son was endowed with free will. He abused his freedom of choice, allowed feelings of self-importance to develop in his heart, began to crave worship that belonged only to God, and so enticed Adam and Eve to listen to him rather than obey God. Thus by his course of action he made himself Satan, which means "adversary."—Jas. 1:14, 15; see also page 372, under the heading "Sin."
No. 3: Adam—The Terrible Consequences of Sin—it-1 p. 45 ¶7–p. 46 ¶1 (5 min.)it-1 p. 45 ¶7–p. 46 ¶1 Adam
Results of Sin. Eve was thoroughly deceived by Satan the Devil, but "Adam was not deceived," says the apostle Paul. (1Ti 2:14) With full knowledge Adam willfully and deliberately chose to disobey and then as a criminal he tried to hide. When brought to trial, instead of showing sorrow or regret or asking for forgiveness, Adam attempted to justify himself and pass the responsibility off on others, even blaming Jehovah for his own willful sin. "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree and so I ate." (Ge 3:7-12) So Adam was cast out of Eden into an unsubdued earth that was cursed to produce thorns and thistles, there to sweat out an existence, harvesting the bitter fruits of his sin. Outside the garden, awaiting death, Adam fathered sons and daughters, the names of only three being preserved—Cain, Abel, and Seth. To all of his children Adam passed on hereditary sin and death, since he himself was sinful.—Ge 3:23; 4:1, 2, 25.
This was the tragic start Adam gave the human race. Paradise, happiness, and everlasting life were forfeited, and in their place sin, suffering, and death were acquired through disobedience. "Through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." "Death ruled as king from Adam down." (Ro 5:12, 14) But Jehovah in his wisdom and love provided a "second man," "the last Adam," who is the Lord Jesus Christ. By means of this obedient "Son of God" the way was opened up whereby descendants of the disobedient "first man Adam" could regain Paradise and everlasting life, the church or congregation of Christ even gaining heavenly life. "For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive."—Joh 3:16, 18; Ro 6:23; 1Co 15:22, 45, 47.
After sinner Adam's expulsion from Eden he lived to see the murder of his own son, banishment of his killer-son, abuse of the marriage arrangement, and profanation of Jehovah's sacred name. He witnessed the building of a city, the development of musical instruments, and the forging of tools out of iron and copper. He watched and was condemned by the example of Enoch, "the seventh one in line from Adam," one who "kept walking with the true God." He even lived to see Noah's father Lamech of the ninth generation. Finally, after 930 years, most of which was spent in the slow process of dying, Adam returned to the ground from which he was taken, in the year 3096 B.C.E., just as Jehovah had said.—Ge 4:8-26; 5:5-24; Jude 14; see LAMECH No. 2.

I know what you're thinking. A guy growling "Goner" in a Death Metal band called Early Graves gets killed before he reaches 30. Was he asking for it?
One thing is certain, the schedule for his band was a killer. The guys from Early Graves and The Funeral Pyre were on one hellacious tour, all over the hot, humid country in July. Nine guys in a van. Take a look and ask yourself if it's a surprise that on August 2nd, the driver fell asleep at the wheel on Interstate 5, one of the monotonous white-line highways that were blinding them:
7/1 Dallas, TX @ Renos Chop Shop
7/2 San Antonio, TX @ Zombies!!!
7/3 Austin, TX @ Red 7
7/4 OFF DATE in Dallas. lets party.
7/5 Memphis, TN @ The Poplar Lounge
7/6 Nashville, TN @ The Black Church. 504 N 3RD ST
7/7 Louisville, KY @ Skull Alley
7/8 Columbus, OH @ 15th House (369 e. 15th ave)
7/9 Columbus, OH @ the Cara Bar
7/10 Gloversville, NY @ Limbos
7/11 Jamaica Plain, MA @ The Midway Cafe
7/12 Boston, MA @ Church Of Boston. 69 Killmarnock St.
7/13 Dover, New Hampshire @ Dover Brickhouse
7/14 Haverhill, MA @ Anchors Up
7/15 Asbury Park, NJ @ Asbury Lanes
7/16 Philadelphia, PA @ The M Room
7/17 Brooklyn, NY @The Union Pool
7/18 Pittsburgh, PA @Belvedere's
7/19 Toledo, OH @ The Black Cherry
7/20 Milwaukee WI @ the borg ward.
7/21 St Louis, MO @ Fubar
7/22 KC, MO @ Aftershock
7/23 Lincoln, NE @The Manor
7/24 Denver, CO @ Blastomat
7/25 Cheyenne, WY @ Ernie November

8/3 SF, CA @ Submission Gallery
8/4 Los Angeles, CA @ TBA
8/5 Riverside, CA @ TBA
8/6 Whittier, CA @ The Bamboo Lounge
8/7 Long Beach, CA @ TBA
8/8 Echo Park, CA @ POWER OF THE RIFF FEST
No, they didn't quite make it to the Submission Gallery, or continue their August run. The odds were not with them at any point in this demonic drive. Would you fucking love to drive from Memphis to Nashville within 24 hours? And then Nashville to Louisville? And Louisville to Columbus Ohio? Every damned day they were on the road, going huge distances.
Sometimes they got a break. It's only about a 2 hour drive from Philadelphia to Brooklyn. But from Brooklyn they had to get to Pittsburgh!
That's the reality of trying to make a living by making music, especially when there's no money to be made from selling CDs or mp3's and most of it has to come from live shows. Rationalize it all you want: "Nobody was FORCING them to tour so much," and "They could of had DAY JOBS and played on WEEKENDS," and "They just didn't tell their fans often enough, "if you like it buy it..." What…ev…er…..
Lead singer Matikeef (Makh) Daniels was ejected from the van after driver Justin Garcia (a guitarist with The Funeral Pyre) conked at the wheel, and that was it; over and out. The band's brand of thrash, hardcore, metalcore and Death Metal can be heard on their two surviving CD's, "We the Guillotine" from 2008 and their 2010 release "Goner." You get a lucky seven of those tracks in the download; any more would be pointless because a) the stuff is in print, and b) it all sounds the same. Hear the head-banging drums, thrashing guitars and Cookie Monster ranting for yourself, on:
Goner, Faith is Shit, Old Bones, Give Up, The Man in Black, Ghosts Among Us, and Borrowed Teeth Borrowed Claws.
EARLY GRAVES 7 tracks

Being Skream's informal Godfather; Skandal's a familiar face in the shadows within Dubstep's biggest events.
Last December, Skandal gained a prestigious place on the line-up, joining a list including Loefah, Benga, Joker, Joy Orbison, Oneman, Plastician, N-Type and more.
Skandal has access to a wealth of unreleased dubs, often copping them before they're officially named or finished. He's made (in our opinion) the best "'Pon De Floor" Dubstep remix out there, and with a recently beefed up studio set-up, watch out for new material coming later this year.
Skandal started DJ'ing in 1994, during the Jungle era. With 16 years of DJ'ing experience under his belt, he's cranked out a banging 42 minute mix of current, classic, and unreleased dubs.
Simply, the mix spanks it.
Major Lazor - 'Pon De Floor (Skandal Refix)
Benga - ???
Simian Mobile Disco - Cruel Intentions (Joker Remix)

Most new universities look set to resist the temptation to increase tuition fees for part-time students in 2006 amid fears that the market is too "fragile" to survive a hike in charges.
Campaigning for Mainstream Universities, the umbrella organisation representing post-92 universities, said that the majority of new institutions would freeze fees at their 2005 level and lose out on extra income.
Three institutions - the universities of Gloucestershire, Roehampton and East London - have decided to hold back from setting their part-time fees until later this year.
Increasing part-time fees in line with the £3,000 full-time fee next year would "jeopardise" the long-term future of part-time study, CMU warned.
Pam Tatlow, CMU chief executive, said there were concerns about whether providing part-time study would be "economic" for universities in future and said ministers had scored an "own goal of mammoth proportions" by failing to come up with a better deal for students and institutions.
Malcolm McVicar, vice-chancellor of the University of Central Lancashire, said: "We believe that the market is fragile and that any significant increase would deter large numbers of part-time students. The current policy is counterintuitive to the Government's widening participation and employment agenda and, in financial terms, cannot be sustained long term by universities.
"Without a change of policy and funding, the future of part-time provision is at risk."
John Coyne, vice-chancellor of Derby, added: "Our analysis suggests that we would not be able to move to pro rata (of the full-time) fee. The market in part-time fees has adjusted to current levels and will not move without further support.
"The flexibility associated with part-time provision is expensive to provide compared with traditional full-time undergraduate provision, and universities committed to offering this flexibility will, in any case, struggle to deliver within the income generated."
Under the Government's higher education reforms, full-time students will from 2006 pay for their tuition fees after graduation but part-timers will still be charged in advance.
Sir Martin Harris, the director of the Office for Fair Access, said: "Fees charged for part-time students are unregulated and therefore do not fall within Offa's remit. However, if institutions do decide to raise their part-time fees, it would clearly be unfortunate if people from disadvantaged backgrounds were deterred from applying on financial grounds.
"No doubt institutions will want to initiate a debate with the Government about giving part-time students access to fee loans on the same basis as their full-time colleagues."
Bill Rammell, the Higher Education Minister, said: "We have already done more for part-time students than any other previous Government, but we recognise that concerns remain.
"Part-timers are not a uniform group and certainly not in uniform need of financial support. Nevertheless we are listening to the sector and thinking hard about how we can respond to concerns of institutions."

airport scrutiny, managing baggage, jet lag, stay problems and other related actions associated. Think about yourself running and collecting belongings at last moment, screaming at your child to make a move, pushing your driver to accelerate the speed of car and arguing with the guards by giving reasons of flight delay. All of this is because you are not in habit of planning your travel in advance. No matter how frequently you travel you repeat this story again and again. And it is not only you facts reflect that more than half of a population travel on daily basis out of which 30 percent travels across the boundaries but this story pertains to everyone. Travelling is a important and somehow indispensible for everyone, reasons behind travelling could be vacations, holidays, business trips, study, for giving performances (for artists), for charity, trade fairs, sports etc. It requires planning and prior set up.
Travelling is considered as a stress buster. Holidays and vacations provide opportunity to refresh and rejuvenate tired and stressed body and soul. So if you are planning for a vacation, looking for some refreshing and relaxing moments far away from work life you, it is important to plan it securely with insurance. It is very important to plan such trip at least once in a year. Reasons behind same are infinite still I want to register few. First thing is that it takes away all of your worries and empty your mind from pre-occupied tension and stress. It will make you feel fresh, enthusiastic and full of life. Your body needs some rest on regular interval of time.
Such vacations also benefit your health as body will get adequate rest which is missing in case of routine work. Vacation which is planned with family provides quality time with family members and help to make the bond stronger. All of it sounds good but there are some efforts required at your end to make it happen and fall in the line.
As stated earlier also, travelling is associated with risk. External factors may hamper your schedule which is uncontrollable. But a smart fellow always take precautions instead of cure. Here insurance is a precaution which is advisable to take on order to tackle a likable disease called unfortunate event. Travel insurance is a smart way to transfer your stress marks and enjoy the realm of excitement and peace while travelling. Every probable mis-happening is covered under transit insurance.
It gives protection against medical emergencies, medical cover for pre-existing diseases, medical evacuation, loss and theft of luggage, flight delays and cancellations etc. Name anything and you can get it covered under visitor insurance and that too by paying few bucks. Spending such amount gives you protection against many odds. While opting for one proper research work should be done and it would be suitable for one's requirement. It's a better option for traveler to leave their tension on solutions provider and go ahead and enjoy their trips doing which things will go lot more easier.

Hey there, I'm Forest. My business partner Chris and I help entrepreneurs like you figure out which software and services are the best to use for their online businesses. Why? Because there are approximately 2,427 different apps and platforms and website hosting services to choose from, and sorting out which ones are the best for your business is super hard.
In this review of Bluehost, I'll dive into why we think it's the best shared, inexpensive website hosting option for new online entrepreneurs. (Bluehost may not be the best option for all businesses, but I do think it's the best for new small businesses who don't need or want to spend $50+ per month on web hosting. My current favorite more expensive, managed Wordpress web host is WP Engine. I've got a new site running on WP Engine and I'm really impressed so far {great support and fast load times.} It does, however, cost $30/mo + $20/mo for an integrated, paid Cloudflare account, which greatly speeds up the load times of the site. Well worth it in my opinion, though.)
In this Bluehost review, I'll cover the pros and cons, run through the results of some website speed testing on a site running on Bluehost, and then, in the sister post to this one, will show you exactly how to set up a Bluehost account and install a WordPress powered website in about 10 minutes.
Before I begin, I want to give you a bit of a heads up, though, in case you're new to reading Clarity Lab reviews: they are thorough, which means, you should get comfy because there's some reading ahead. I'm not a fan of short 400-word software reviews that are out there on the web. When I read them, they always feels like a thinly veiled excuse for the author to sprinkle their affiliate link on their site in hopes of making commissions. [Read more…]

Sim racers dominated proceedings at the first ever virtual Formula E race in Las Vegas.
Members of the public were invited to qualify for the eRace, with ten being chosen to compete against the current crop of 20 Formula E drivers for a share of the $1million prize pot.
Thanks to their gaming experience these 'sim racers' proved to be far more adept at handling the virtual Las Vegas track, and ended up filling nine of the top ten places in qualifying.
They continued this dominance in the race, and although the first across the line was eventually demoted to third after a glitch in the software, polesitter Bono Huis took the $200,000 prize for first place.
The only Formula E racer who was able to get close was Mahindra Racing's Felix Rosenqvist, who eventually came home to finish second.
Jose Maria Lopez, Sam Bird, Daniel Abt and Nelson Piquet Jr managed to finish in the top ten, but were helped after several drivers were eliminated on the first lap.
The Las Vegas eRace was devised partly to fill the long gap between rounds two and three of the Formula E calendar.
It was also hailed by organisers as 'world leading', and the first race of its kind – with Hans-Jurgen Abt saying that it showed that Formula E was a 'step-ahead' of other sports.
And despite several technical glitches besetting the race, Formula E founder and CEO Alejandro Agag declared it a success.
He said, "This first eRace in Las Vegas was a great success. It's exciting to have brought Formula E into the inner sanctum of CES – the biggest and most influential technology show in the world.
"I think this can be the first in a big future for Formula E in eSports racing.
"We will continue to pursue new and innovative ways to improve our presence in this fast growing landscape, while maintaining fan engagement at the forefront of all our initiatives."
The most significant news to come out of the weekend in Vegas was that the Motorsport Network has bought shares in Formula E.
The motorsport digital technology business said that it was part of a broader strategy to take a leading position in elective vehicle and electric racing media.

China to open market for French pork and beef
China has committed to deliver the results of the last audits in November 2015 and to grant approvals before the end of this year to compliant French pork companies. Meanwhile, China has committed to expedite the process of effective market opening for French beef, based on the lifting of the BSE embargo in March 2017.
These are consensus reached during the 5th China-France High Level Economic and Financial Dialogue on December 1, 2017 in Beijing, according to China's Ministry of Finance. Both sides also agreed to make French products available to Chinese operators in the feed market.
