text: Food for thought from Facebook...... This came up on my Facebook feed and seems like good food for thought to Wish Merry Christmas and start the New Year. As I was pulling into work, I was following this car. The sign in the back window says, "Learning stick sorry for any delay." Knowing this information, I was very patient with their slow shifting, and honestly they were doing pretty well for still learning. Then I asked myself a tough question: Would I have been just as patient if the sign hadn't been there? I can almost definitely say no. We don't know what someone is going through. We don't wear signs that illustrate our personal struggles. You don't see signs taped to people's shirts that say, "Going through a divorce", or "Lost a child", or "Feeling depressed", or "Diagnosed with cancer". If we could read visually what those around us are going through we would definitely be nicer. But we shouldn't have to see signs and have reasons to treat strangers with kindness. We should do it anyway, whether we know what is going on or not. Whether they deserve it or not. Let's give everyone an extra dose of patience, kindness, and love. And have a Merry Christmas.

Spent part of this snowy day trying a couple of new recipes. The cupcakes are definately a new favorite!
Made these Milano cookies. Fun to try, but they weren't as good as I had hoped.
Don't these cupcakes look delicious? They are Peanut Butter Cup and they do taste like peanut butter cups. Soooo good!

I am a big Pac-Man fan as most gamers that grew up in the 80's are. The original arcade version was one of the first video games I ever played. Pac-Man has been into all sorts of games and other media since it first debuted so many years ago and Namco has unveiled the latest mobile game featuring the yellow guy.
The game is called Pac-Man Kart Rally and it will be offered on just about every mobile platform there is. The game will come for devices supporting Java and BREW, as well as Blackberry phones and Windows mobile devices. An Android version will land early next year. There isn't a mention of an iPhone version, but I would bet there would be one.
The game has some of the legendary characters from the arcade days including PAC-MAN, Taizo Hori from DIG DUG, the Prince from Katamari Damacy, Susumu Hori from Mr. Driller and the Fighter from Galaga and more. The game has 12 tracks with five game modes. Each character has different attributes and will affect how the kart handles.Filed Under: Android News, Gaming News

Leading by Example
By: Steve Kibler, Fleet Manager, City of Loveland (Colorado Chapter)
Each fleet manager or any manager for that matter has a unique style of leading his/her team. It's kind of like the three bear's beds, there are three categories: one is too soft, one is too hard and one is j-u-u-u-st right. The one that avoids or ignores problems is too soft. The autocratic one or the "off with their heads" one is too hard (but this style must be in your ammo box). The manager who earns his teams trust and respect through fairness and integrity turns out to be the just right leader. Which one are you? We are motivated to lead in many ways; through frustration with current leaders; through a will to "fix things" or an inherent need to improve how a service is provided.
My personal motivation comes from witnessing colleagues do it right and wanting to emulate that example of leadership within my own team. Another subtle motivation may be a catch phrase or sage quote by some famous person. I have some favorites I would like to share.
"Worry is interest paid on trouble that hasn't happened yet" ~David Petersen
"A successful man is one who can lay a solid foundation with all the bricks others have thrown at him" ~David Brinkley
"Being defeated is temporary, giving up makes it permanent." ~Marilyn von Savant
And my personal favorite:
"Be who you are and say what you feel 'cause people who mind don't matter, and people who matter don't mind." ~Theodor Suess Geisel (You probably know this author by another name: Dr. Suess)
There are many ways to lead your organization to success but there are exponentially more ways to fail and go backwards. How can you avoid this pitfall; always follow through with a plan until it is completed to your satisfaction or until it fails (the plan, NOT you). If you never fail, how can you or your team know what your limits are? We've all heard the saying "two heads are better than one." Think how much better the dozen or so heads on your team are if you have created a culture of trust. Don't be afraid to ask suggestions from your team about a challenging project. An unknown author said: "He who does the job knows the job best; trust the people you hired to do the job." Trust your team to suggest strategies and/or obstacles you may not have anticipated. Then you must lead by decisively picking the direction the team will take and you must define to the team the goals along the journey. Here's where follow through is so important. Don't let the project die on the vine. If I may quote RMFMA member Craig Croner, City of Boise "Regularly inspect what you expect from your team."
Each of us must find our own style of leading. My advice would be to regularly network with your team every chance you can. Attend every industry related conference, meeting, and/or training you can and glean whatever motivation you can steal from your colleagues. 'Cause those that mind – don't matter and those that matter – don't mind.
I even composed a motivational saying of my very own:
"You can't go through life with one foot on the brake; release your fear of failure; of not achieving excellence; be excited about life and release the brake!" ~Steve Kibler

India is an amazing country. Its really different and more vibrant than any other part of the world and so is the people living in this country. Spirituality and philosophy is the language that is spoken in every nook and corner of this country. we had discovered/invented and forgot concepts 1000's of years ago that the rest of the world is playing till 20Th century. Aryabhatta and VarahMihir have provided the view of solar system way before Copernicus and Galileo. Revolutionary concepts like theory of relativity and Gravity were discussed in our holy scriptures like Ramayan and Mahabharat. Today we marvel the technologies like cloning that some so called first world countries made possible but we had this science thousands of years back (In Mahabharat it has been described that Vedavyasa took some cells from gandhari's body and he divided it into 100 parts and thus 100 Kuravas got life).Birth of pandavas can also be explained with technologies like test tube baby. Aeroplane( Pushpak Viman) and Neuclear weapons( Brmhastra and other deadly weapons) were very common things in those scriptures.
I know the reader must be thinking that these books are just plain fiction and these description doesn't prove that these advanced technologies were available at that time. My point is the most important part in a discovery is the concept and as soon as someone gets the idea of something it will be converted into reality in no time. The author of these scriptures were so convinced about these ideas that they were not hesitant in writing their story around it. And if you still say that a story is just a story than remember when we are writing stories about neuclear weapons, aeroplanes, cloning and possibility of human colonies on other planets ( what do you think vishwakarma did when he built a separate world for Trishanku when he was not accepted in heaven) the so called first and second world was either covered in snow or they were still trying to light there first fire.
There were descriptions about technologies that are our imagination and comprehensibility of modern science and still part of science fictions and Hollywood movies. We have descriptions about future visions, remote vision, human transmission, invisibility, brain programming etc. the list is as long as the history of this country. The word "GADNA"(calculation) was a very important part of these description which proves that these things are thought as scince and not as magic.
The knowledge about all these things has been written and stored in "Pandulipis" (a book with wood as paper) , and we have lost all that knowledge over the period of time.
One of the several incidents that killed this valuable knowledge is burning of Takshashila library by "Gazni". I read a description somewhere about this event that the library was a group of 3 buildings each 9 story high and it kept burning for six months. Just imagine in those days when printing press was not invented and books were written manually hence no multiple copies how many books would have been destroyed.
No one is eligible to enjoy the inherited wealth if you can not protect it thats what happened to India and Indians........

Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, Nov. 13
By Huseyn Hasanov – Trend:
Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan exchanged instruments on ratification of the strategic partnership agreement between the two countries, the Turkmen Foreign Ministry said in a message Nov. 13.
The document was signed on March 6, 2017 in Ashgabat following high-level negotiations.
The message says that Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Turkmenistan Rashid Meredov recently met with Uzbekistan's Foreign Minister Abdulaziz Kamilov.
The meeting took place on the sidelines of the EU-Central Asia ministerial meeting, held in Samarkand under the auspices of the United Nations.
Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, which have impressive reserves of hydrocarbon resources, stand for diversifying of energy flows. A good example of this is the implementation of a project to construct the Turkmenistan-Uzbekistan-Kazakhstan-China gas pipeline, which was commissioned in 2009.
Recently, Turkmen President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov invited Uzbek businessmen to participate in the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) gas pipeline project.
Construction of the Turkmen section of TAPI started in 2015 and is scheduled to be finished in late 2018.
Total length of the TAPI pipeline will be 1,814 kilometers. A 214-kilometer section of the pipeline will run through Turkmenistan, a 774-kilometer section will run through Afghanistan and an 826-kilometer section will run through Pakistan to Fazilka settlement on the border with India. The pipeline's annual capacity will be 33 billion cubic meters of gas.

Nets' shooting forward Terrence Williams possesses a world of talent but his lack of commitment to the organization forced New Jersey's hand as they have agreed in principle to ship out their former #11 pick in the 2009 draft.
Williams caught the ire of Avery Johnson and the Nets coaching staff when he arrived late to practices and was dismissed from a game earlier in the season for failing to comply with team policy. New Jersey demoted Terrence to their D-league affiliate, the Springfield Armory, sending a clear message that they meant business. In three games with the Armory, Williams averaged a triple double, with his most important interaction not coming with head coach Avery Johnson or general manager Billy King but 13 year old Carlos Gonzalez Jr., a D-league ball boy. The young buck questioned Williams' attitude and dedication to the team, while making light of the fact that people would die to play in the NBA and to value his opportunity.
The stern talk aimed at inspiring Terrence to get his act together and re-dedicate himself to the game of basketball has not translated on the court. Williams' relationship with the coaching staff appears irreparable as he saw limited action against the Lakers this past Sunday and was deactivated prior to New Jersey's game with Philadelphia Tuesday night.
Terrence (or T.Will as he is known by fans and teammates) will join the Rockets in a three team deal involving the New Jersey Nets, Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Lakers. In exchange for Williams, New Jersey receives Lakers' shooting guard Sasha Vujacic, Los Angeles' 2011 first round draft pick, along with Houston's 2012 first round draft pick. Vujacic will reunite with former Lakers teammate Jordan Farmar hoping to bring championship pedigree and a winning attitude to a Nets squad mired in an eight game losing streak. The Lakers receive journeyman power forward Joe Smith from New Jersey, providing them with a veteran presence and much needed depth to their front court. Anticipating Terrence Williams' addition to their squad, Houston has dealt second year guard Jermaine Taylor to Sacramento for a future second-round pick. All the pieces are in place but the deal cannot be finalized yet as New Jersey's Joe Smith is an offseason signee with NBA rules prohibiting him being traded until December 15th.
A change of scenery may provide Terrence Williams the opportunity to flourish and refine his skills, or Houston may have a problem. The outcome remains to be seen but the Nets are content with their compensation in the deal landing a pure shooter and pesky defender in Sasha Vujacic, along with 2011 and 2012 first-round draft choices. New Jersey has stockpiled draft picks earning five first-round selections over the next two seasons. The Nets are in prime position to fill their roster with young talent via the draft or opt to employ their picks as valuable trading chips to score a marquee player. General Manager Billy King has indicated that his club will continue to actively pursue trades as the front office tries to find the right mix of players to produce a winning formula.

The headlights are always on in "Auto" (as is the headlight indicator on the instrument cluster). Has anyone else noticed this...or am I doing something wrong or not waiting long enough for them to turn off?

Your fear is their desireAs I was walking through my DVD store looking for FRONTIERS to review this week (they didn't have it…bugh), I fell upon THE FLOCK, a flick I had never heard about before. The selling point for me was that it starred Richard Gere in a dramatic role. An Officer and Gentleman, Breathless, Primal Fear, American Gigolo, Internal Affairs… Gere was always a favorite of mine, until he started doing all them romantic films set in New York that is. So seeing his grey haired mug on that DVD box made me feel nostalgic, so I cold rented it and hoped for the best.

I have been taking anti dep meds on and off for a few years but recently been on fluoxetine for about a year now. I have been dealing with the pain of a miscarrage a few years ago along with all the usual rubbish childhood/rubbish parents that so many people have been through! I started using recreational drugs and that was of course a downward spiral but for the last 6mths i have been working really hard to stay clean and away from the bad crowds iwas in. But recently all i have wanted to do is drink and get high. I get angry at friends that show their concern and offer help and just tell them i am fine. and the thought of going towork and pretending just makes it worse. I dont want to do this anymore, i know i can do better than this but it just seems like the easiest way to deal with it. All i can say is when i am drunk, high or both it doesnt hurt anymore. Could the fluoxetine be doing more harm than good now???
Is fluoxetine causing more harm than good?

Hi there. I too take Prozac. Not on a regular basis, just when I get depressed. Isn't that a hoot. It dosen't work when it is in the bottle. lol
I can relate about having the feelings you do, I am 55yrs old and still have issues. You seem to be young and if you are and can stay sober or not be addicted to anything please try to stay that way. I too tried just about eveything when I was young. I never got addicted to anything because I had to work and I really didn't feel like having the hangovers all the time. But low and behold, in 1997 I hurt my back and have been struggling with all sorts of pills since. I am not taking methadone for my pain. It turned out to be a good fit for me. But, if you don't have health issues, please try talking to someone with experience. It is a lot harder to quit if your not depending on them now than later. I wish you the right path to follow and God or whom ever keep you safe.
hey there:) i am also taking that crap... lol. well, hopefully it's not crap... i have been through a lot of that same rubbish you were talking about... started in my early childhood and i've been trying to cope ever since. i was raised really strict so as soon as i got outa highschool i wanted to experience everything and found that i like the feeling of not feeling a lot more than remembering past hurts. anyway... long story short i got in with the wrong crowds and some of the people i allowed to be around me(in my house my car) were not on the same page as me as far as basic beliefs go ie:don't steal... basic stuff like that and i ended up getting in trouble because i gave a ride to a friend and he had stollen jewlery on him and even tho i had nothing to do with it i got put on felony probation... so, i was faced with jail or sobriety... i used to smoke a helluva lotta weed... 4 the past 9 years... and used to do a little bit of everything but for the past 2 years mostly popped x pills and drank and smoked great weed:)lol... when i went to report to my po i got sent to jail for 5 days wich seemed like an eternity to me... i wanted to die... i have to kids and i felt like they probably thought i had abandoned them so when i got out i started going to a counselor to try and work on resolving issues from my childhood that had made me hurt so bad that i always wanted to be high or drunk or just not feeling... if you know what i mean. anyway... that was in september. i still go talk to my counselor but i have also been taking the generic form of prozac the past 3 months. so far i feel like it has helped me a little bit... at least as far as taking the edge away and ecspecially helping take the edge off and helping me not be quite as bitchy before and during my period. how long have you been on it? i wanted them to put me on lexapro but they said my insurance wouldn't cover it... so i am trying it... when i get really stressed out sometimes all i want to do is escape and smoke a fat blunt of some fire ass weed but i know i cant because i value being there for my children and the thought of not being able to be with them because i made a momentary wrong choice with out thinking about what the consequenses would be scares the hell outa me... sooo... i take what the doctor gives me... go for a walk or a drive with my music blasting if need be and pray that i can get through it all without snapping:) anyway, my thoughts and prayers are with you... cuz it all sounds so familiar... i would love to know how long you have been on prozac... and if you have any kids cuz that does factor in2 the whole equation... well, let me know how you are... take care of you... :)

Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
It's hard for me to believe that there would be that much buildup of oils that are only used a couple of drops at a time. But who knows?
Here's the part that got me though: "It is now common to have washes sometimes as low as 15 degrees Celsius." Oil removal aside, is it really possible to get clothes clean with water that cold? In the cooler months when the basement dehumidifier water that I start with isn't any warmer than the ground water (which is probably a couple of degrees cooler than 15, but only a couple), I stand by the washer until the tub is full, fiddling with the cycle controls to make sure that some warm water goes in. I'm sure my washer has several years in it still, but I do crave one of those new ones with a thermostat.

Thinking about this thread doing my laundry this morning...
thinking about all the washing I've done in hotel sinks over the years, and about learning not to use too much detergent in the washer.
It's well known that most people use too much detergent in their washer. When you're hand washing it's easy to meter yourself and stop adding detergent/soap as soon as you see suds. With a machine, you just have to take it on faith. It seems like the measuring cups that come with the jugs are designed to sell more detergent. One big line at the top, and a whole bunch of little hard-to-see lines at the bottom that are the ones you're really supposed to use.
But what I've discovered more recently is that like most things, those directions and measuring cups are written for the least common denominator. Just like the yellow recommended speed limit signs on corners are engineered for poorly balanced delivery trucks and long semis - not passenger cars - the amount of detergent they recommend is for the very hardest water. Like mine, where large flakes of lime form whenever I boil water , and filling the detergent cup to #1 or #2 works just fine. If you have soft water, you can probably read the directions and cut the recommendation in half, probably a couple of tablespoons of detergent per load.
The other thing is that the fourth or fifth time I'm washing something by hand in a hotel sink, the water doesn't come out any cleaner than the first time. Yep - I am that skuzzy. We sweat, we exude oils, we shed skin cells, our clothes pick up particulates from the air, and whatever we sit on sticks to our pants or skirts, too - not just the big puddles that we can see and avoid, but microscopic particles of who knows what, too. I guess maybe washing machines are just another way that a lot of people are insulated from the glorious dirt that we all live in.

I read a biographical story about the Delany sisters (who both lived past 100 years old), a couple of New Yorkers who were the daughters of slaves. They lived together as centagenarians and hand washed all their clothes, never having owned a washing machine. I remember one of them talking about how much longer their clothing lasted. I guess it's a TV movie now.

Today I did a load of handwash that had been handwashed last week.
Much, much different.
Wash water got dirty, but not the murky pukey grey of the first wash. It only took 2 rinses to get the water clear. (clear, not colorless; there is some dye coming out in the rinse)
Seriously, I'm going to do double rinses when I get my washing machine. What an education this has been!

So far, Yelp's decision to go it alone is working out, with its market cap now standing at $1.3 billion, more than twice what Google had offered. That's just about where it started when it went public in March of this year, more than two years after the phone call from Jobs and turning down Big G.
In the meantime, Google decided to pick up restaurant ratings and review site Zagat to satisfy its craving, and Yelp now views Google as a major competitive threat since it relies on the search giant for most of its traffic. Google was responsible for more than half of traffic from Internet searches in the first quarter, and Google has removed links to Yelp from some of its search products in favor of its own local offerings.
The site is free for users, a key advantage over rival reviewer Angie's List
Getting iLove
At the Worldwide Developers Conference last month when Apple detailed iOS 6, the iPhone maker also incorporated direct integration with Yelp's services, allowing for check-ins directly in the new maps app. That's a big boost for Yelp as exposure to Apple's large and rapidly growing installed base of iOS users, and it most assuredly wouldn't have been possible if Yelp had been corralled into Google's stable.
It's also a big vote of confidence from Apple, putting Yelp in the same category with other dominant third-party social services getting iLove, most notably also including Facebook in iOS 6. Twitter was directly integrated last year in iOS 5.
The next major version of Apple's desktop OS X, Mountain Lion, is also integrating social features directly. Mountain Lion is due out this month and will launch with Twitter while Facebook will be added this fall. One can't help wondering whether Yelp might eventually get this treatment as well, which would be yet another major score with Apple.
Yelping Yelp
For now, heavy spending in sales and marketing continues to hold back Yelp's bottom line, despite a booming top line. It's been able to fetch a loftier valuation by staying independent, and the deals with Apple definitely help, but for now I'd review it as 1.5 out of five stars as an investment, because I'm not confident in Yelp's ad-based business turning a sustainable profit.
Interestingly, my rating is just half of the three stars that the company fetches as a service on its own website.
Apple's become more willing to play nicely with others of late, helping boost the appeal of its devices and giving it more room to run. Sign up for this brand-new Motley Fool research service all about Apple for more on the iPhone maker's opportunities and weaknesses. Social media is the next big thing, but the real question is whether it can be a profitable business. This company is proving that it can, partly because it doesn't rely on the fickle advertising market. Grab a copy of this totally free report to find out more.

Appendix B: Assessment Instrument
Sample Questions from Biotechnical and Environmental Science
1. A patient is connected to a medical device via two electrodes as shown below, each with a diameter of 10 cm. The maximum allowable leakage current is 0.005 amps (5 milliamps). Calculate the maximum voltage allowed across the electrode leads to maintain a safe current for the following conditions: (a) dry skin, (b) gel coated skin, and (c) penetrated skin. Assume RV = 200 ?. Voltage = I (R electrode 1 + RV + R electrode 2).
2. A device was brought into the lab that had no output. There are no service manuals available for this device. Upon further investigation, you find a burned out capacitor, the value is unreadable. You find that the circuit looks like the one shown below. What should be the value of C. To maintain less than 2 mV of ripple?
3. A transducer is intended to be interfaced to a measuring device. The transducer produces a minimum sinusoidal output of 0.05 mV @ 1 ?A . The measuring device requires a minimum input of 10 mV. Design an amplifier that will perform this interface. Be sure to specify component types including part numbers.
4. You are asked to design a resistive load to test output of a DC power supply. The power supply must be capable of producing 2 amps at 100 volts. The load must be designed with a 200% safety factor. Specify the value of the resistive load including resistance and power ratings.
5. An equipment cabinet must be protected by safety interlocks. There are two access panels with interlock switches. There is a key switch and there is a start button. When the access panel is open, the switch outputs a logic level 1, when closed, a 0. The only time that the process will start is when all panels are closed and the key switch is on. The key switch outputs a 1 in the on position. When these conditions are met, output a 1 to the "start process" line. If conditions are not met, output a 1 to the "system halted" line.
6. A technician customarily counts the number of leaves on cloned plants. The results of nine such counts in successful experiments are: 75-54 55-61 71-67 51-77-71?If the technician obtains a count of 79, is this a cause for concern?
Perform statistical calculations to determine whether 79 leaves is out of the range of two standard deviations.
8. Suppose you are planning to purchase a new micropipettor to pipette volumes in the 100 ? 200 ?L range. You consult a catalog and find the following information for 3 brands of pipettor: Brand A, Brand B, and Brand C. Based on the catalog specifications, which micropipettor is most accurate? Which micropipettor is most precise? Which would you purchase?

With roughly two out of three of its middle and high school students performing below grade level in state mathematics testing, Franklin County High School is moving to revamp and rejuvenate these programs as the new school year commences.
With roughly two out of three of its middle and high school students performing below grade level in state mathematics testing, Franklin County High School is moving to revamp and rejuvenate these programs as the new school year commences.
The math department has been restructured with a new math coach and five new math teachers, including two women, Shevial Weston and Kassi Malcolm, right out of college embarking on their first teaching assignment.
�In some respect that�s good, they�re fresh, and they�re open to the methodology,� said Principal George Oehlert. �This isn�t your father�s Oldsmobile.�
Key to restructuring has been the hiring of Dale Millender, a longtime popular math teacher in Carrabelle, to replace Priscilla Tucker. The district had invested resources in Tucker, and school board members expressed concerns earlier this summer that it would be hard to replace her.
Oehlert fought hard for the hiring of the math coach, which some school board members said ought to be cut to save about $75,000. In the end, the board declined to eliminate the math coach.
�We�ve got to help these children with math,� Oehlert told the board last month. �They need the guidance of that expert math teacher for at least one year to bring this all together. (The math faculty) are better organized than they�ve ever been to teach.�
�We didn�t have the teachers that were receptive to what was being asked of them to do. That�s why we have five new math teachers,� he said. �Dale is just getting them all focused and organized and planning where there�s vertical alignment between the grade levels.
�What is it the ninth graders need to know? The eighth grade teacher better do that,� he said.
Oehlert described Millender as a �math teacher extraordinaire,� who set about this summer to align the curriculum on focus calendars and benchmark assessments, fancy terms for making sure teachers focus exclusively on the material at hand, and do so in a way that links one grade level to the next.
�What that really does is ensure all math teachers are teaching the required content, so all students have the ability to learn the content they should,� said Millender, who started in 1991 as an Algebra I teacher in Carrabelle, and then over the next 11 years built the math program to the point the school offered calculus. After leaving teaching for eight years, she returned in 2010 to the Franklin County School as a math teacher.
�The enthusiasm of all the math teachers was remarkable,� she said. �They met six days prior to the other teachers meeting, to get this right for these kids this year. We met to ensure that all the content in each math area would be taught to the students. We�ve done some specific things that we think should be helpful.�
Millender said that with a tighter alignment of curriculum, and a broader base of available courses, students will have the opportunity to build a foundation for a future career in math and science.
�They at least will have those opportunities,� she said. �I�ve heard a lot of good, positive remarks from the teachers.�
Beginning last Tuesday, each of the math teachers is offering math tutoring for an hour after school on Tuesday and Thursdays, both for math homework help or if they�re needing specific help. Millender said also that with remedial math classes, �we�re trying not to just shuffle them along but to address their gaps.�
Teachers enthusiastic for hands-on methods
The math teacher line-up for the middle and high schools features Melonie Inzetta, who has moved over from her post handling credit recovery to teach sixth and seventh math.
Malcolm teaches eighth grade math and Algebra 1, while Weston handles honors algebra and geometry, and a pre-calculus course.
Marxsen, who last year taught sixth and seventh grade math, has been reassigned to teach Algebra 1A and 1B. He also teaches remedial math, as do the all the other department�s teachers.
Former middle school math teacher Roy Carroll has returned to the classroom after serving as the district�s director of finance. He teaches Algebra I and II and college readiness math, high school subjects in which he also is certified.
�We want to take the trend to the positive,� said Millender. �Last year that�s not what we saw in the middle school.
�Our goal is to do that, and our plan in the future is to broaden our base for the number of students taking algebra 1 in the eighth grade,� she said. �So that next year advanced placement statistics will be offered and the goal is to offer AP calculus.�
Millender said the teachers also did detailed planning for math activities and focused on enrichment in real world problems, which is just the sort of thing that Malcolm is enthused about.
�I want kids to enjoy it,� she said. �You enjoy it, you�ll do it better.�
A graduate of Wewahitchka High School, Malcolm earned an associate degree in mathematics from Santa Fe College in Gainesville, and then a bachelors in elementary education from Florida State University in Panama City in April, after completing an internship at Wewahitchka Elementary.
Malcolm said the fact she is certified as an elementary school teacher, and for teaching math for grades five through nine, is an asset in teaching high school students.
�Not all secondary teachers goes through elementary education, which is very high on �manipulatives�,� she said, referring to hands-on teaching methods.
�It�s something kids can physically manipulate to get the answer,� Malcolm said. �I think you can take some of those elementary activities and mold it to the curriculum in eighth grade. They are still kids at heart.�
Weston believes that engaging her students will be a key to success. �You just have to get them involved in the course,� she said. �You have to teach to standards and if you tell them the goal you want to teach, they can reach it. First I have to be excited about it and they�ll see I�m excited.�
Originally from Albany, Ga., where she took part in softball, track and band, Weston started taking college courses while still a student at Terrell High School in nearby Dawson. She then earned a bachelors of science and math from Armstrong Atlantic State University in Savannah, graduating in May.
�I wanted to have a small classroom setting,� she said. �It�s a small school like my hometown. I�m actually excited about it. Hopefully I can help.�
Malcolm, too, shares Weston�s enthusiasm for the challenge.
�I�ve always wanted to be a teacher and I�ve always loved math,� she said. �It�s stupid but I got excited about doing equations. I just love doing it.
�Ideally I want them not to love it like I do, but my goal is I want them to realize it�s something they will use in life,� said Malcolm. �It�s important and it�s going to be important in different ways.
�I got a comment last week from a student. She told me I never liked math but I get excited about coming to your class,� said Malcolm. �If I can get them excited about coming to class, I can get them excited about the subject.
�I don�t know if I�ll be able achieve everything I want to this year as far as reaching all my goals, everything�s that involved in teaching,� she said. �Would I love to? Yes.�
Malcolm said working with a seasoned teacher like Millender has been a boost to her as she embarks on a teaching career. �It�s been beneficial for me to have her by my side, at arm�s reach,� she said.
Millender said she is just as pleased to be on the other end of the teaching partnership. �What I�m doing here is building this program back,� she said. �I�m glad to be a part of it.�

Reasons for Designation
Multi-span bridges are structures of two or more arches supported on
piers. They were constructed throughout the medieval period for the use
of pedestrians and packhorse or vehicular traffic, crossing rivers or
streams, often replacing or supplementing earlier fords. During the early
medieval period timber was used, but from the 12th century stone (and
later brick) bridges became more common, with the piers sometimes
supported by a timber raft. Most stone or brick bridges were constructed
with pointed arches, although semicircular and segmental examples are also
known. A common medieval feature is the presence of stone ashlar ribs
underneath the arch. The bridge abutments and revetting of the river banks
also form part of the bridge. Where medieval bridges have been altered in
later centuries, original features are sometimes concealed behind later
stonework, including remains of earlier timber bridges. The roadway was
often originally cobbled or gravelled. The building and maintenance of
bridges was frequently carried out by the church and by guilds, although
landowners were also required to maintain bridges. From the mid-13th
century the right to collect tolls, known as pontage, was granted to many
bridges, usually for repairs; for this purpose many urban bridges had
houses or chapels on them, and some were fortified with a defensive
gateway. Medieval multi-span bridges must have been numerous throughout
England, but most have been rebuilt or replaced and less than 200 examples
are now known to survive. As a rare monument type largely unaltered,
surviving examples and examples that retain significant medieval and post-
medieval fabric are considered to be of national importance.
Stony Bridge, Titchfield is well-preserved, despite saddling at an unknown date, and its remains will provide evidence of its two main construction phases during the 14th and 17th centuries. Its significance is further enhanced by its association with Titchfield Abbey, and the later Place House, providing an insight into the spatial organization of the area in the medieval and post-medieval periods. Deposits preserved underneath the bridge and its abutments will contain valuable artefactual and environmental evidence, shedding light on the human and natural history of the site prior to construction.
Legacy Record - This information may be included in the List Entry Details.
The monument includes Stony Bridge, just to the north of Titchfield, a
stone bridge largely post-medieval in date but with medieval fabric, spanning
the River Meon along the road to Catisfield. It is Listed Grade II and is
also known as the Anjou Bridge, as it is associated in local tradition
with the marriage of Henry VI and Margaret of Anjou in 1445. Stony Bridge is
situated about 100m east of the entrance to the former Premonstratensian Abbey
of St Mary and St John, and replaces a bridge built by the monks during the
14th century, which was probably made of stone piers and a wooden parapet.
The antiquary, John Leland reports that the bridge was made of wood when he
crossed it in 1542. Stony Bridge was rebuilt in stone during the 17th century
under Henry, the 3rd Earl of Southampton, whose grandfather had acquired the
Abbey, from then on known as Place House, after the Dissolution of the
Monasteries. Henry commissioned a survey of the estate, on which he had
undertaken major works, and the 1610 map produced as a result shows `Stoney
Bridge'. Local knowledge suggests that the date `1625' was inscribed on the
bridge, but this is no longer visible.
Stony Bridge is made of roughly coursed stone and comprises two arches,
each with a 2.7m span. The western arch is segmental in shape, while the
eastern is slightly pointed. The coped parapet is slightly humped and
above the cutwater on the upstream (north) side is a small refuge for
pedestrians. The space in between the parapets is about 3.5m and at the
end of the parapets are stone buttresses. At the western and eastern
terminals, the area of protection includes a 3m margin to protect the
remains of the contemporary road surface, where this survives beneath the
modern road.
Excluded from the scheduling are modern lamp and sign posts, as well as
the modern tarmac surfacing of the carriageway across the bridge and the
parapets above the level of the road surface, although the bridge fabric
below them is included.

Some would say Charlotte 'Charlie' Regan has it all. Beautiful, smart, athletic and a great job working as a journalist – in the almost exclusively male sports department. But Charlotte is not quite as sure as she seems. Recently split from her overbearing boyfriend, she escapes for weekends, surfing in the Atlantic, and spends her free nights watching sports, roaring at the TV.
Derry Cullinane is a fashion writer, gossip columnist and sophisticated man-about-town. The go-to guy for any woman seeking expert advice on what fabulous outfit to wear for any given occasion. He's also tall, dark, good looking – and straight! So what's the snag? He has a track record of dating glamorous, vain and shallow women.
Charlie gets an opportunity to write a new column under the pen name Side Swipe, but soon is drawn into a war of words and wit with a rival paper's columnist The Squire – and their verbal fireworks get readers and editors talking. Yet neither Charlie nor Derry knows just who the opponent is...
When Side Swipe and The Squire are finally forced to reveal themselves, will they revert to type – or confound everyone's expectations?
* * *
'Ow!' Charlotte yelled as the man in front of her stepped back heavily on her foot. He turned quickly, scowling down at her from under a Panama hat. Realizing she was clutching her foot in pain, his face cleared to concern.
'I'm terribly sorry. Were you standing very close to me? Is your foot all right?'
Charlotte glared at him in disbelief.
'Yes, that must have been it. I got under your feet! It was completely my fault,' she countered, massaging her foot. He burst out laughing and regarded her small leather brogues.
'You have very small feet, don't you? I really am sorry, I didn't see you at all.'
What was so damned funny? Charlotte drew herself up to her full five foot, three inches and continued to glare up at Panama Hat Man. He had to be at least a foot taller than her.
'You're as clumsy as an elephant,' Charlotte replied indignantly.
'Actually, elephants aren't that clumsy.' The man grinned as he swept off his Panama hat to reveal a shock of black, slightly curling hair.
'Please accept my deepest apologies.' He arched one dark eyebrow. 'Any tips for the next race?'
Charlotte hesitated.
'I'm not sure if you should listen to me...'
'On the contrary,' he murmured, a faint Cork accent filtering through. 'Race looks wide open.'
'What's your bet?' shouted the bookie, and Charlotte suddenly realized they'd reached the top of the queue. She nursed her sore foot as Mr Panama Hat muttered to the bookie, before taking his docket and turning briefly around.
'Wish me luck!' he said, before disappearing to view the race.
'You betting miss?' the bookie said.
'Um, sure. A tenner on Green Velvet – to win,' Charlotte decided suddenly, still thrown by the encounter. Dammit, what had she tipped for this race? She couldn't remember if it was Green Velvet. But the bookie was waiting. She handed over her money. Once the horses were called to starters orders, the bookies' pitch cleared fast.
Charlotte pulled out a notebook and asked the bookmaker a few questions about how the festival was going. The sun disappeared and she pushed her sunglasses on top of her head. She thanked the bookie and glanced around.
No sign of the good looking Panama Hat Man. Good looking? She'd bet her last cent that he bloody knew it too. Who the hell wore Panama hats in Ireland? It had shaded those brown eyes...so get yourself a dog if you like brown eyes, Charlotte. She gave herself a mental shake.
'...Penny Farthing and Lucky Dip, nothing between these two. And Green Velvet's coming with a late run. Green Velvet gaining! And Margin of Error's dropped out of it altogether. And with a furlong to go, it's Penny Farthing and Green Velvet drawing clear.
'Yes!'Charlotte shouted, scrambling up on to the bookies' stand to watch the horses gallop to the finish line. 'Come on Green Velvet!'
'Penny Farthing and Green Velvet, stride for stride, it must be a photo. I can't separate them but I think Lucky Dip takes third. Green Velvet may have got it in the last stride....It's Green Velvet in first place. Green Velvet wins, followed by Penny Farthing. And Lucky Dip takes third.'
Charlotte grinned delightedly at the bookie as she jumped down off the stand. As an afterthought, she pulled out her column, searching for her tips. There it was: her top tip for that race had been Margin of Error. The horse had been badly beaten.
She bit her lip and shrugged philosophically. Nobody got it right all the time.
* * *
'So, did you get lucky?' a deep voice drawled.
Charlotte spun to find Mr Panama Hat grinning down at her. Bloody hell, she thought, smiling back despite herself.
'Yes actually, I did,' she admitted. 'What about you?'
He grimaced.
'I lost. My own fault. I took a flier on somebody else's tip.'
Charlotte grinned sympathetically.
Mr Panama Hat shook his head, scowling briefly.
'I read some bloody sports columnist from Ireland Today. Had a few winners earlier this week. As I said, it's my own fault. I never normally bother with racing tips. Whoever it is, he obviously doesn't know a horse from a three-legged stool.'
Charlotte swallowed hard.
'So how much did you lose?' she managed, trying to sound casual.
'A thousand.' He caught Charlotte's horrified expression and laughed. 'Hey, don't look so worried! I'm a big boy.'

During my primary school days, all I can remember was I like to collect as many letters as possible from my friends. Until now, I have this habit of keeping letters as I like to reminisce of my past events regardless of upset or happy moments I had.
|Yvonne's collection of letters
When I was young, my favorite subjects were Chinese and Mathematics. Throughout the entire 6 years spent in my primary school, all I did well at was Mother Tongue. I can recall when I was in Primary 5, my Mother Tongue teacher selected me together with one of my friends to take part in a story-telling competition. We were to compete with the students from the same level as us. Unfortunately, we did not win the competition as our competitors had performed so much better than us. Nevertheless, the teacher-in-charge decided to give us a certificate in appreciation for our participation as well as to the rest of the participants who were not qualified for the top few winners.

I enrolled into Chu Chua Kang Secondary School at the year of 2008 and graduated at the year of 2013. I am proud to become a part of CCKS family members for those good five years.
It was the place where I started to learn how to adapt to changes and got to meet different people from different kinds of environments.
The teachers there are very helpful, thoughtful and supportive. They were the ones who influenced me to become more mature in thinking and taught me a lot of life values which would benefit me and prepare me for the future. My favorite subjects then were Humanities, Mathematics, Physics and Chinese.
I spent my five years there with Choir as my main CCA.
As I constantly showed commitment and was very active in this CCA, my conductor, Mr Marcus Lee together with my seniors selected me to become the sectional leader when I was in Secondary 2. This enabled me to gain confidence, become more mature and started to lead others. It also trained me to become a responsible individual.
In the 2011 Singapore Youth Festival (SYF), we sang our hearts out and clinched the Silver Award with 3 songs. In addition, my school's choir has been invited to perform in various school events every year, such as the Annual Speech Day, National Day, Teacher's Day and our school's 20 Anniversary Celebrations.
I realized I finally found my interest after joining this cca. I enjoyed every CCA session as I feel that CCA is a way for me to relieve stress and being able to put aside schoolwork. I have met such a sweet bunch of juniors and friends in choir. They were the ones who brought so much joy and laughter into my secondary school life. I always looked forward to every CCA session so that I could spend time fooling around with them. Needless to say, I really miss Choir, my conductor and my juniors a lot.
I also participated in all the annual cross-country events which were organized by the school and managed to clinched the Top 50 Finisher award.

Share some memorable moments of your teenage years with photos if available
Those are the people whom I spent my teenage years with. I consider them as my very good friends.
When I was in secondary school, I always like to take a lot of trash photos in class during recess time. I miss those moments having to take so many fun shots with my friends.
Last year, I celebrated Christmas with my friends at Irish Obama Pub. It was my virgin experience to go there as my parents seldom allow me to hang out until midnight. It was a great night spent as everybody was in high spirits.
Another outing with the same group of people to Palawan Beach and spend the entire day over there having fun catching up with one another. We also make use of this opportunity to bring along one of our wheel-chair bound classmate to the beach. All of us took very good care of her and we were enjoying ourselves a lot.
Why did you choose DBIT course?
DBIT is a course that has a mixture of Business and IT.
I chose DBIT because it interests me and also, I feel that a business related course provides me with more chance of employability. Another reason why I chose this course is also because I was influenced by my sister. She is a graduate from DBIT!

I prefer music which sounds soothing and relaxing instead of rock music.

Here's a happy moment that is very memorable to me.
My Sis's 21st birthday celebration held at National Service Resort and Country Club. She invited all of our relatives and her friends. Almost everyone on the guest list managed to turn up on that day making the birthday celebration a successful one.
That day, we gathered all of our classmates and respective teachers together and had a class BBQ party. It was a memorable day spend catching up with all of them.

I will set a time table for myself to make sure I go according to my plans so that I will not lag behind time. I am aware of what I am doing. Thus, making sure that I will end up achieving the results that I want.
Three things or people that inspire you
Mr Melvin Kong, our school's discipline master who was once my English teacher. He helped us to see the importance of tackling problems at the source and other valuable life skills which can be used later in life. From time to time, he offered students with moral support and provided us with advice. He had never once given up on students and would always try his best to reach out to students who are in need of help. His sharing of his personal experiences has inspired and touched our hearts. I have since developed a better understanding of the meaning of life.

Lizzie Velasquez, a 24-year old Texan, once made headlines as the world's "ugliest" women, but she's not going to let anything or anyone gets in her way. Lizzie managed to overcome some of the nasty comments that people say about her. She has a way to cope with all the obstacles that she was facing since she was young. She is very resilient and always see things on the bright side. I am inspired by her attitude and the way of how she overcome her difficulties despite getting nasty comments from so many of them.
What are your favourite modules in SP? Why?
My favourite module in SP will be Social Media Marketing and Digital Media for Business.
Social Media Marketing is a module that provides me with a lot of opportunities to reach out to various business aspects. Through this module, I met the Director and boss of a company in real life and had the opportunity to discuss how we can help improve their business. This opportunity does not come to me very often as it is very rare that a particular company chose to trust us that we can do something to help promote their company without having any past experiences. Through this module, I learnt some valuable lesson such as being serious and not taking things lightly when it comes to business.
Another module which I like will be Digital Media for Business. It gives on hands-on experience and I feel that this module is not too dry compared to those that require theory work. This module taught me how to create our own posters and also grades us based on our creativity. I feel this module is very attractive and interesting as we are able to come out with our own ideas on how to create a short video clip.
What are you hoping to learn in Year 2 and Year 3?
In year 2 and year 3, I hope to learn some intermediate skills such as Business Planning. I hope I will learn more about Interaction and Visual design so that it can train us to become good designer. In year 3, I hope to learn more about the Fundamental of Economics and also prepare us to go for Internship.
Share your experience and tips about transiting from secondary school to poly
Signing up for freshman orientation camp can be a good way to kick-start your poly life. It is where you start to make new friends, and get to know seniors that are in the same course as you.
It is good to know some seniors when you have trouble coping with your studies. The seniors have gone through things that we have not. I believe they are willing to be there to guide you since they have more experience than us.
Do you have best / good friends in SP?
I do have good friends in SP as seen in the picture below. We were from the same secondary school and coincidently, all of us except for one of them managed to enroll into Singapore Polytechnic. Even though we seldom see each other when we were in school (SP), but we will definitely forge out some precious time to hang out with one another as a group. There was a period of time before O level, we used to play badminton together as a form of exercising.
My current class 1A/02 is one of th the most united ones that I have ever had. I feel rather fortunate and blessed to meet all of them.
They are willing to share, give and teach, they are not selfish. They took each other's unglam and then they laugh, they don't have the intention of bullying. They would stand by each other, they would motivate one another and work hard together to achieve success. I am so proud of this class that look after one another and be there when we are in need of help. A lot of times, I forget to tell them how much I really do appreciate them for being an important part of my life. So thank you all of you, just being here for me.

When Jesus said we can do greater works than him what did he mean, do you agree? (See quote below)
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. (New King James Version)
He was saying that he could do much more than he actually did. Jesus healed people by just touching them. Peter healed people when his shadow touched them. It doesn't mean that Peter was more powerful than Jesus. Jesus just didn't use his full power when he was on the earth.
Jesus said this because he knew after he left the disciples to go back to heaven, the Holy Spirit would be sent as the last witness to humans. Therefore, the disciples would be empowered to perform miracles and wonders by the power of the Holy Spirit in them.
This is why nowadays the miraculous powers of God is seen at a greater scale than during Jesus' time. God is referred as the Father who utters words, Jesus is referred as the Word and the Holy Spirit who is also part of Godhead carries out the words uttered by God through Jesus.
That is why Jesus promised the disciples if he would not go then the helper and comforter would not be sent. The Holy Spirit is the one who enables God's servants to perform miracles, the reason we do greater works than Jesus did. Remember, when Jesus was baptized he was filled with the Holy Spirit.
Therefore, I agree we can do greater works than him because Jesus knew the Holy Spirit would enable us so that those who do not believe by faith the Good News will believe by actions.
I challenge you to prove where "greater works than Jesus did" have been done. If you are able to do greater works, then where are they?
The perfect example is the Book of Acts of the Apostles found in the Bible. The best reference. However, one should not confuse miracles and magic because from your question that is what you are implying. Magic is not greater works from Jesus context
I meant evidence that can be historically verified. No one can confirm the followers of Jesus actually did those things.
RTB: We can talk to "people" like u via technology. That's just one of the "greater works than He" we are doing!
He may have known what the future would look like. To those in his era if they could see man landing on the moon, flying around the globe in airplanes, cell phones, countless medical advances and medicines, electricity, trains, automobiles, skyscrapers, computers, email, Skype, ships, air conditioning, plumbing, television, radio, cameras, microwaves, construction and farming machinery, refrigeration, and numerous other things we use daily would all seem "miraculous" or unbelievable to folks in his time!
All of those physical things are not miracles. They are ordinary, action-reaction, cause-and-effect physical reality. Miracles are about rising above the physical.
Dash: You're right! TECHNOLOGY! Reach more people! TV, computers, etc. Matt 24:14. If we line up w/Jesus' Doctrine, be filled w/HS, rec Power fm on high, use tech, then we will be able to "do more than He!" Not bcuz we have "more" pwr but reach more
He was speaking of doing greater miracles than he could do. There is a technique in the psychic realm. In fact, many adepts have discovered the technique. Unfortunately, spiritual powers must be used in secret because it brings federal investigations. Anyone doing a public display of miracles or spiritual powers will be harassed by the government because it disrupts the control that they want to maintain over the society. In this country they use ridicule, debunkers and professional skeptics to destroy the beliefs in unknown powers. The goal is to keep the people powerless. Whenever someone finds the secrets of using Chi, Odic force, Prana, Radionics or various other strange powers, they mysteriously have an untimely death or disappear. So the adepts advise people to practice doing miracles at a distance and in secret. Some people are still too advanced for the society. The last thing they want is for a person to have millions of followers because of miracles that defy the rules of science and logic. You will find people using such powers in Japan, Tibet, China and India, but sometimes their government comes after them if too many people start following them. The same reason they wanted to stop Jesus.
So these "greater works" are not seen because of government persecution? Very nice excuse. Almost believable. So did Jesus mean for his followers to practice all their miracles in secret?
He didn't, but we saw what happened to him. If you amass a large following, you automatically go under serveillance by the Feds. Look at China's Falun Dafa cult. Millions follow for a reason. If they didn't get results, why bother about it?
The Age of Miracles never ended.
I have seen such miracles in my own lifetime. When we are of the spirit, then such things are effortless, because effort equates to doubt and doubt removes one from the realm of spirit.
Spirit is Love, as is God. When we love others (even our enemies) as ourselves, then we are Love without self-concern and thus without limitation.
Moving mountains, planets or even galaxies is no different than even the tiniest miracle. Faith knows no limitation.
The context for john 14:12 reveals that Jesus was explaining to his disciples that the time would come where he would have to die and be resurrected to a heavenly life. He reminded them of how unified him and his Father were and then he goes on to say the words in John 14:12. How would his disciples do greater works than Jesus? Well Jesus knew that the preaching work was just getting started with his ministry and that his apostles as well as future disciples would have to carry on this work to a greater extent. Jesus stated in Acts 1:8 that they would be "witnesses of him...to the most distant part of the earth." So they would reach more territories and more people than Jesus reached while he was on earth. After Jesus went to heaven Christians in the first century experienced much success in their ministry. Acts 2:41 and Acts 4:4 show that thousands were becoming true Christians. Today millions have made the same decision.They would also carry out this ministry over a longer period of time which has now been going on for over 2000 years. Jesus ministry lasted 3 1/2 years.
Jesus was also expressing confidence in his followers that they would carry out the most important work ever done, the preaching and teaching of the good news of the kingdom. Jesus stated that was God's will for him in Luke 4:43 and trusted his disciples to do the same. (Luke 13:24)
Yes, I believe!
If we "line up" with the apostle's doctrine (which was really not the apostle's doctrine according to Jeremiah 31:31-33 and Hebrews 8:10;10:16), it can be done! These Scriptures promised "a new covenant, after those days (after He ascended), which would put His laws in our mind, and write them in our hearts.."
When He "went to his father" and sent the Comforter (Holy Spirit) as promised In John 14:26, that would "...teach us all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatever ever I have said unto you, that gave us the "power!"
On the Day of Pentecost (when the original church was established) the Holy Spirit came "as a mighty rushing wind" which began "..putting His laws in their minds, and writing them in their hearts.." Afterwards, they only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
That's just one area that "religion" needs to "line up" with Jesus' Doctrine! Although referred to as the apostles' doctrine in Acts 2:42, it was really Jesus' Doctrine because He promised a New Covenant in Jeremiah and Hebrews that would "put His laws in their mind, and write them in their hearts" which He fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost!
Until "religion" do as the Scriptures has told us to do, they will never be capable of performing these actions! We have the map (Scriptures); however, we are not following directions! Until we turn from "religion" and/or "tradition and learn how to "rightly divide the Word" with the guidance of the Holy Spirit instead of allowing the flesh to get involved, we will be limited! But if we would "ALL" get on "one accord" as they were on the Day of Pentecost, we could concur this world from Satan and "Do greater things than He!" Reason being, Jesus did not have all of the technology, transportation, etc. to spread this "Good News!"

If the basic start of Christianity is the bible, why do we not all agree?There are lots of ways to receive a message from the bible. As you read it, it seems to speak to you (for believers). It guides you through life. Yet, when it comes to this very thing, it is also the start of many arguments...

When Jesus said those born of the spirit are like the wind what did he mean? (see quote below) The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.John 3:8 King James Version

Why the TRINITY,does it means GOD is not fit or strong enough to work alone??The Heavenly Trinity....God the FATHER,SON and HOLY SPIRIT,The bible says God is all knowing God He dwells on Heaven above...For Him to work even more miraculously He has to use Man,does that limit God to work...

New Delhi: The party has reached to an extent of splitting over due to the feud caused. Samajwadi Party has split in two parts with party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav on one side and UP CM Akhilesh Yadav on the other side.
Due to elections approaching near in UP, the party is facing difficulty in deciding that who will carry forward the party's legacy. The decision has been left on Election Commission to decide who will actually be riding the 'cycle'.
However in his earlier statement, Mulayam Singh Yadav has refused of having any dispute with his son Akhilesh Yadav but blamed a person who is creating issues in the party.
Ramgopal Yadav who is supportig the UP CM in this feud said,"We had come to the Election Commission to urge them to expedite the decision as nominations will start soon," and refused to comment on any of SP supremo,Mulayam Singh's statements.

It can even come from driving home from work at night, which is what happened to me Friday night.
After listening over and over and over again to Sufjan's "The Transfiguration" for my hour-long commute, the perfect vision and idea cropped up in my head. I don't want to really reveal anything yet, but it's going to take a long time to do, if I get the guts to do it at all.
In the meantime, here is an inspiration quote from Sufjan! 🙂
