Refractive Index & k
Filmetrics systems measure refractive index and extinction coefficient over wavelengths as wide as 190-1700 nm - in seconds and with a single mouse-click. In many cases, our accuracy is even better than much more complicated and expensive ellipsometry methods, especially when the film is absorbing and on a transparent substrate, which is often the case for Si3N4, ITO, and many other common materials.
Filmetrics also provides refractive index measurements as a service, or if you just want to look something up, check out our refractive index database.
Thickness Measurement Example
Filmetrics tools (particularly our F10-RT and F10-RTA systems) are ideally suited to quickly measure challenging materials. Without the need for extensive expertise, our FILMeasure software can extract complicated optical constants. In this case, the reflectance and transmittance spectra of a single film of MEH-PPV on fused silica are beautifully (and simultaneously) modeled to yield thickness, n, and k.
A Bridge Lorentzian-3 Term Model is successfully used in this example. In addition, FILMeasure provides an extensive library of other optical models. Our user-controlled solver allows rapid acquisition of the correct result.

One of my absolute favorite series, namely Gracen Miller's Road To Hell series is getting a full revamp, I mean re-wrap. Meaning the three books out so far (Pandora's Box, Hell's Phoenix and Genesis Queen) are getting new covers!
Readers have been able to buy Pandora's Box in her new dress for a while now, and now it's time for you guys to see Hell's Phoenix 2.0!
Old cover New Cover
Hell's become more than just a playground for the wicked...
Going to Hell was supposed to save Madison, but knowing she's dead because of his failure leaves Nix with only one thing to live for. Revenge. With Micah's help he learns to use his Messianic power. Anything for Mads has become his mantra, even if it means killing innocents to gather the power he needs to succeed. A tsunami he unleashes on a Gulf Coast city is stopped with magical interference, and Nix is more than surprised to feel Madison in the opposing magic. Can he and Micah set a trap to lure her out?Pandora's Box...once you open it, there's no turning back!Madison has done the unthinkable, opened Pandora's Box to save Nix from Hell. And failed. She's willing to risk her own life to rescue Nix, but she worries about the welfare of her accomplice in the mission and leaving her son behind. Following up on a lead, she's ambushed by Nix and Micah. Shocked and hurt to discover Nix has become a willing participant of Hell, she's more certain than ever she won't escape the demonic fate her husband outlined for her. While in Hell, she discovers denying the emergence of her succubus is futile, which means getting Nix out of Hell after embracing her inner demon just became a very real dilemma…
Read my review here!
Hell's Phoenix Excerpt:
"You'll heal her promptly," Micah growled, shifting back into his human persona, as he offered his legs as a pillow for her head. She'd have pushed him away if she could've managed to contort her body to that angle.
Madison gaped at the blood darkening her jeans and spreading down her thigh. "That hurts way worse than I thought being shot would."
"I need to get your pants off, Mads, to heal you." Nix's fingers went to the snap of her jeans.
She knocked his hands away. "You'll heal the others first."
"He shot the main artery in your thigh, Madison. You'll bleed out before he finishes with them." Micah compressed his lips together and spoke as if he ground his teeth together. "I've lost you twice. I will not lose you again."
"Death would at least grant me freedom from you!"
Micah's mouth flattened in displeasure. "Phoenix, I would ask you to do as she requests."
"Goddamnit, Mads, I swear I'll heal them immediately after I take care of you."
Madison glared at Nix. "E kawoja ciok tauqelv." I refuse your healing. Nix spewed curses in Xapil. "Impressive, you've learned how to curse in demon."
Nix scowled. "Stubborn."
Madison clenched her teeth in silent mutiny. Nix cupped the back of her head, tugged slightly and kissed her hard on the lips. Excitement zinged through her system. Her attraction to him always presented itself at the most inappropriate moments.
"I find that stubborn trait sexy, baby."
"Flattery gets you nowhere, Nix." She winced at the tug against her wounded flesh as he rested her against Micah's thighs.
"What does?" Nix jerked the hem of one pant leg up and tugged the blade strapped to her ankle out of its harness.
"Good deeds."
He brandished the knife he'd given her for her thirtieth birthday and grinned. "Does healing them count?"
Nix rolled to his feet and leveled her with his stare. "You're a hard woman to please."
"Cease the flirtations with my wife." Micah's grip on her shoulders intensified. "Heal those bottom-feeders, and then heal her."
NOTE: You must read the first book in the series, Pandora's Box, before reading Hell's Phoenix, as the series builds upon itself.
Pandora's Box is
only .99 cents

The Beltway, along with media pundits from both sides welcomed the VP selection of Paul Ryan because they thought it was a signal that the Romney camp was prepared to shift their campaign to a more substantive one. Paul Ryan, known for his budget and economic vision, was thought to change the conversation from vicious attack ads to serious economic policy.
Well, that didn't happen, and it's not surprising. The reason: Contrary to what the media believes, Ryan is not a substantive guy. People think he has serious plans for the country, but in reality the only thing he has are vague claims that fire up the Republican base – "Smaller Government!" "Cut the debt!" The only reason his plan has credibility in the Beltway is because those people are precisely the ones who gave him credibility in the first place. Paul Krugman lays out this argument better than I can – here.
The people who believe Ryan really does add some substance to the debate are simply mistaken. Although he is viewed as a deficit hawk, his plan doesn't balance the budget until 2040. And that's assuming all his math works. By reducing the tax code to two brackets (25% and 10%) Ryan's plan offers a huge tax break that is paid for by closing loopholes in the current tax code. As I have pointed out before, he has yet to mention what loopholes he plans on closing. So, it's hard to take Ryan as a serious deficit hawk when his proposal gives no specifics as to how it's going to reduce the deficit. Further, if history tells us anything, Ryan is not concerned about the debt or paying for tax cuts. He voted for 2 unfunded wars, he voted for the Bush tax cuts without paying for them, and voted to extend them again without any funding. So Ryan might have the perception of fiscally responsible, but there is little evidence to prove he actually is.
Ryan is a lot like his running mate, Mitt Romney. As we learn more about Romney's plan, the plausibility of it seriously comes into question. Romney's plan brings government spending down to 20 percent of GDP without touching Medicare or Social Security, as well as setting a floor on defense spending at 4 percent The only way this math works, as Ezra Klein pointed out, is to cut everything else by an average of 40 percent; meaning, "Medicaid, infrastructure, education, food safety, road safety, the postal service, basic research, foreign aid, housing subsidies, food stamps, the Census, Pell grants, the Patent and Trademark Office, the FDA" would all see substantial cuts. Romney neglects to mention this in his plan. Besides the fact his cuts are politically impossible, they would have devastating consequences for, well, everyone.
Both Romney and Ryan make big promises without the slightest mention as to how they plan to fulfill those promises. Both plans sound good to the base, but it's entirely unclear whether Ryan and Romney can or even want to achieve them. These are not the plans from people with serious ideas about reducing deficits and shrinking government, but rather they are plans from people pandering to the extreme right of their base.

Library's £4.45m refurbishment
Published Thursday, 17 October 2013
Enfield Council has agreed to the £4.45 million refurbishment of Palmers Green Library.
The borough's cabinet decided on Wednesday night (Oct 16) to proceed with the scheme following the decision to sell the Southgate Town Hall site earlier this year, construction work is expected to start in July 2014.
Enfield Council's Cabinet Member for Culture, Leisure, Youth and Localism, Cllr Bambos Charalambous, said: "Prior to redeveloping the library we will consult extensively with users so that the services it provides are the ones that people actually want.
"These plans will mean an extensive range of resources that people can borrow, as well as Wi-Fi facilities and public access computers.
"We are absolutely committed to providing first rate facilities for our communities and upgrading and improving the services we currently have. This development will significantly improve Palmers Green Library and make sure it can provide everything a 21st century facility should."

Antimicrobial Resistance in the Environment explores the role that environmental distribution of antimicrobial resistance genes and antibiotics plays in ecosystem and human health. The text features a multi-disciplinary framework that connects microbiology, environmental toxicology, and chemistry to assess human and ecological risk associated with exposure to antibiotics or antibiotic resistance genes as environmental contaminants. It also considers alternate uses and functions for antimicrobial compounds other than those intended for medicinal purposes in humans, animals, and fish. Recognizing the connectivity between overlapping complex systems, Antimicrobial Resistance in the Environment discusses the subject from the perspective of an ecosystem approach.

This is it folks, after a decade of demand Capcom has finally given in…
Here's the reveal teaser, via YouTube.
From the looks of things, it appears that the 2.5D SFIV engine will NOT be used, dashing our hopes of maybe getting high-res 2D sprites a la BlazBlue Capcom is stating that the game will be played with 3D characters on a 2D plane, but that an advanced version of the MT framework (used in games such as Lost Planet 2 and Resident Evil 5) will be utilized.
Described in the press kit as a "living comic…with a deep story", MvC3's announcement today is a big deal and it's mainstream success might open the door for more games in the VS. series or hopefully a completely original fighter.
Capcom's Seth Killian had this to say "It's important that game's have strong stories for Marvel, with fighting games it's not as essential as an action game or role playing game but we are very much insisting there be some cohesive kind of story for this game. We actually have a subtitle for the game that means something this time. In the coming months we will be giving you more information about."
As far as characters go, it appears that the following are confirmed to be in the game:
Wolverine, the Hulk, Iron Man, Street Fighter's Ryu, Darkstalker's Morrigan, Resident Evil's Chris Redfield, Captain America, Super Skrull, Chun-Li, Deadpool, Felicia, Dante, Frank West, Mephisto, Black Widow and Doctor Doom.
Now if only Capcom would give us another Darkstalkers! Hey, I can HOPE….
Check back here for more news from Captivate 2010 … I'm sure Capcom has more surprises for us.

Things to Consider Prior to Purchasing of Locks
It is essential for one to make sure that he or she focus on investing in good locks especially where h or she purchasing them for his or her house or business. The moment one has made sure that his or her house is well locked, he or she can be at peace. Fortunately, there is an array of padlocks from which one can make choices from. One would need to understand the types of locks available in the market for him or her to make informed decisions on the type of lock he or she may need for his or her home, office or even business. Among the most common types of padlocks include the levers, the deadbolts, the knob locks as well as the padlocks.
Among the most common types of locks include the padlocks due to the fact that they are not attached to the door. It is also worth noting that padlocks come in a range of sizes and are either keyed or demand a combination. Where the door demands a padlock a rental commercial or residential house, one would need to purchase a padlock for his or her property to be secure in the business or in the house in question. There are also those people who prefer non-re keyable padlocks to enhance their residential or their commercial security.
Another common type of locks is the deadbolts. There exists three major groups of deadbolts. The three designs include the single, the double as well as the lockable thumb turn. Single deadbolts tend to use a key from the outside and a thumb turn from the inside to both open and close the door. There is the lockable type that can be left unlocked when the people are in the house and locked the moment there is no one at home.
Knob locks is yet another type of locks that one can consider when purchasing locks for his home or even commercial. Knob locks tend to be used together with the deadlocks to make sure that the door in question is secure enough. When purchasing a knob lock, one would need to be sure of the handedness of the knob lock in question.
4 Lessons Learned: Doors
There are also other types of locks which include lever handle locks, the cam locks, mortise locks, euro profile cylinders, and wall mounted locks. Researching on locks allows one to settle on a type of locks fully aware of why he or she would need it for his or her home. One would need to make sure that he or she has done enough research whenever he or she has to purchase locks so that he or she can understand the reason as to why he or she is purchasing the padlock in question.Questions About Deadbolts You Must Know the Answers To

Craftsman tools, equipment and work wear are available at Sears and Kmart stores throughout Canada. Craftsman products are also available online at Sears.ca, Kmart.com and Craftsman.com.
Craftsman brand products are controlled by a subsidiary of Sears Holdings. Sears is owned by Kmart, and therefore Craftsman products are available at these retail and online stores.
The Craftsman brand was registered with Sears in 1927, although the company itself has never manufactured the tools. Hand tools such as sockets and wrenches have been made in China since 2010, and others, such as pliers and screwdrivers, are made in the United States. In 2009, readers of Popular Mechanics named Craftsman as their favorite brand of hand tools.

Over the past year or so of dating, I have encountered several would-be-suitors who have, interestingly enough, had the exact same tactic. It is a tactic:
1. that I do not understand
2. to which I do not know the appropriate response
3. that simply cannot be a very effective way to start a relationship
What is it, you may ask? Well, let me give you a textbook scenario to illustrate my point. Truly…this is TEXTBOOK from my experience so far.
I meet a guy on match.com. We send a few emails back and forth through the site, then exchange phone numbers and start texting a bit. Now, if this potential date is over the age of 30, we eventually agree to talk on the phone and/or meet in person. If this potential date is under the age of 30…it has been WITHOUT FAIL that the following happens. We are texting back and forth…things seem to be going well, and then I get a text completely out of the blue that looks like this:
Ah. The faceless shirtless bathroom mirror cell phone shot. Worthy almost of a Time Magazine article entitled something like, "The 20-something athletic guy: An unprecedented phenomenon of cell phone bathroom photos." Really!? At first I thought it was a bit funny, but soon came to realize it is more common than not to send one of these to someone you have never even spoken to in person or even over the phone.
So…my initial questions stand. What is the expected response to this cavalier move? To say, "Wow…you're hot," or perhaps, "I'm so turned on right now!"? I have no idea. I have tried several different sentences, most all of which seem quite silly considering the subject is standing in the bathroom mirror and usually there is a toilet in the background. One guy kept sending me the same photo over and over. It was him in a steamy bathroom mirror fresh from the shower with a dangerously low towel around his sculpted waist. Each time I would respond with a different 'you're so hot' compliment…which was true…but I don't enjoy feeling like I'm being forced to tell someone! Eventually, he gave up on me, apparently not getting the answer for which he was searching.
Or maybe, it isn't really a sentence they are looking for at all. Perhaps they are doing wordless request for a scandalous photo of me? What would that look like? A bikini shot? A bra? No shirt at all? Hmmm. As long as it was faceless and in the bathroom, maybe they body part doesn't matter. Who knows. These 20-something boys are quite curious to me. How did this random practice get started in the first place? Is it commonplace for 20-someting females to have multiple shirtless photos in their SMS inbox at any given time? Have the 20-something ladies mastered the correct response to this odd practice? Please, if you do know….enlighten this obviously older (and more conservative) female.

Women in Business Love Talking Strategy (Apparently)!
We had an especially smashing time following Tara Rethore of M. Beacon Enterprises, and her tips as featured guest expert on executing business strategy. Who knew this was a topic so close to the hearts and minds of our community of business leaders and executives?
(Yeah, I had a hunch but certainly wasn't expecting THIS kind of response.)
This time around, not only did many of our favorite regular chatters participate, we also saw some new faces, as well as a few people from Tara's extensive audience. We were also able to give away two of our three sponsored prizes – yet another perk of attending our Twitter chats live!
Our 351 tweets reached potentially 1,180,380 people with 2,814,595 impressions via 116 distinct tweeters, breaking the record made last month for potential reach, but with fewer actual tweets viewed in real time by humans. Which basically means we had more participation by people with slightly wider audiences, and yet to catch last month's record, we had to have 25% more people tweeting.
Which of course we'll take any day of the week – we just set that reach record.
Download the Transcript of the Women Grow Business Chat
The next best thing to having attended the chat in real time is to download the transcript. Here's the most retweeted tip Tara sent, so you can get a taste of why that is.
A7: Good #strategy execution: 2)review progress toward #strategy milestones quarterly – schedule it. #wgbiz
— Tara Rethore (@TRethore) November 12, 2012
If you want to see the rest of the 4 tips she was sharing, you've gotta download our free PDF record of the chat.
While it's true that the energy of a live Twitter chat is hard to duplicate, luckily for you, as with all our 2012 chats, we have a report available online or for download [pdf]. As you peruse it, in whatever format you chose, take a few minutes to connect with other members of the community. You never know who you might meet.
Attend the Next Women Grow Business Chat, Live
Every second Monday of the month at noon, the Women Grow Business community has a Twitter chat. We usually have a guest expert, announced on our blog prior to the chat. You can subscribe to our blog, our Facebook or Twitter page using the links in the upper right corner of the page, to get the announcement of our next guest delivered to you.
Next month, we're thinking about trying something different – a Google+ web chat or broadcast either before our Twitter chat, or instead of it. We'd love to hear your thoughts about this change in venue (or addition) in the comments. Of course, just in case, there are instructions for attending a Twitter Chat below.
To be reminded when the chat is approaching, whether it's on Twitter or Google+, sign up for free on our Eventbrite page.
How do you follow The #WgBiz Twitter chats?
- Log into Twitter, Tweetchat, Tweetgrid, Tweetdeck, or any other Twitter tool that lets you isolate a hashtag.
- Follow our Twitter hashtag #wgbiz. (In Twitter you can use the search at the top of the screen, in Tweetchat or Tweetgrid, once you're logged in, you'll see an area for you to enter the hashtag at the top of the screen. In Tweetdeck, you can create a column that searches for that hashtag)
- Arrive as early as 11:45 a.m. to introduce yourself, send us a link to your site, and share your latest project, as well as to meet the other chatters.
- Make sure you're following the host, in this case me (@wgbiz is the official channel, while @Tinu is my personal handle), and featured guest(s). This way, you can easily follow the conversation, send questions during the chat, or follow up later.
- Have fun! Our free twitter chats are meant to be educational, sure, but also lighter fare than a teleconference or webinar.
See you next time when our special guests will be our outgoing editor and pioneer of the Twitter hashtag and monthly Twitter chat, Shonali Burke – we also have another unconfirmed guest who we hope will join myself and Shonali live on video!
Stay tuned to the blog for updatesGoogle+

Looking at this amazing absolute highlight of the Islamic culture it is unbelievable that the Islamic world nowadays is so divided that the collision of the reformation and the iconoclasm 500 years ago in Europe fade away.
Excellent presentation
Have a nice day. Groet Rob

Hi Chris,
very impressive interior shot. I had a pleasure to enjoy this type of architecture in Andalusia. It was hard to take a good picture there because there were a lot of people and the light was challenging as well.
You did a fantastic job here. The arched doorway makes a fantastic frame for the view to the next room.
I see you have selected a perfect angle to present it.
Excellent work!!
jmdias (83667) 2017-11-19 6:01
I was ever crazy for islamic art but I had an overdose of it while in morocco, so many samples... nice angle catching the typical features of the local style.
PS: I saw your image from soy in australia, they can export easily to china, what is fantastic in terms of logistic. I was thinking about your national home: your surname looks french, you put your page in turkey but at this moment you are posting images with inf. about australia. where are you from ? haha.
take care
mcmtanyel (46440) 2017-11-22 21:06
Hello Chris,
This is a splendid photo. Light management is excellent, the view is stupendous and your chosen POV is my favorite. The photo would be perfect if you could have managed to get the upper left corner of the decorations around the arch. Under these circumstances when my lens can't get it all in, I take two shots and stitch them together afterwards.

MCML - God So Loved The World
John 3:16
Our text for this morning's sermon is the best known Bible reference in the Western world, even if people don't know what the verse actually says. And there is a good reason for it being so popular; God. Love. The world. Son of God. Faith. Perishing. Eternal Life. Packed into this verse are the greatest realities that exist. Martin Luther said this passage was "The heart of the Bible, the Gospel in miniature".
Sometime we become so familiar with a text that we don't really know the text. I mean we know about the text but we don't really know the text. It's like if I were to say Jordan, or Ali, or Tebow you would know who I was talking about. So this past week I was trying to find a fresh perspective on a passage most of us memorized as a small child. I reached out on social media and asked folks what came to mind when they heard John 3:16. There were lots of comments about God's love and the depth of that love. People commented on His willingness to sacrifice Himself on our behalf, so we wouldn't have to perish; a few comments about God closing the gap that separates us. Some people mentioned the guy with the rainbow wig standing behind the goalposts of the NFL games (which is a reference that dates you). And five different people actually said Tim Tebow. But, there was one that stood out to me, a friend of mine sent me a "cleaned up" version of a quote from Nadia Bolz Webber.
"Basically God created us and all that is, but because the first woman ate something she shouldn't have and now we are basically (lost) for all of time. And since we are all so terrible at following rules God needs to punish us. But here's where Jesus comes in. Jesus is God's little boy — and he only had one! … and he loved that little boy so much… but he had to KILL that little boy because you stole a candy bar, or lied to your mom, … or maybe you used swear words or looked at dirty pictures. The important thing to know is that God killed his little boy rather than punishing you, because let's face it, someone had to pay and you should feel so grateful about all of this that you believe and (most importantly) you behave. But the good news is that if you believe all of this and if you try really hard to be good then when you die you get a special all-inclusive vacation package called Eternal Life."
When I first read that, I didn't know what to do with it. So I reached out to my friend who shared it with me. She told me that this quote summed up her childhood and most of her adult life. She struggled with guilt over the fact that she was so bad and so terrible that God had no other choice but to kill Jesus for her. And what makes it worse is that no matter how hard she tries to be good and behave that God is still having to kill Jesus over and over again.
No one lives in a vacuum, if someone has a struggle, chances are pretty good that others have the same struggle and issues. So if my friend grew up in a church that taught her to feel guilty about God's love and grace, she is probably not alone. If my friend was taught that she had to behave and try really hard to be good, chances are pretty good there are others who feel that way as well.
We are in the middle of a series of looking at our call to Model Love in the Model City. I know that you are very familiar with our text this morning, but I want us to look at the text through the lens of how can we model love to our community. For far to long we have tied guilt and grace together, and I am not sure that what Jesus meant.
For God So Loved The World
I know that seems like old news, most of us believe that God loves people. But that's not what the text says, it says God loves the world. Jesus had a very specific group of people in mind when He talked about the world. He meant the people who did not believe, those who refuse to follow God. He meant the people doing their own thing. In other words, He meant the lost people who don't know God.
So when John 3:16 says that God loves the world, it means God loves the poor and He loves the rich. He loves men and women, boys and girls. God loves the older person using a walker to shuffle down the sidewalk and the newborn napping in her mother's arms. He loves the strong and healthy, and He loves the weak, sick, abandoned, and broken. God loves the educated and the illiterate.
He loves those from every people group, black, white, and brown. God loves the self-disciplined, and He loves the addict. He loves the high and mighty, and He loves the low and powerless and oppressed.
God loves liars, thieves, hustlers, men on-the-make, adulterers, pimps, prostitutes, rapists, pedophiles. He loves the victims of sexual predators. God loves murderers, gang bangers, and those who abort babies. And he loves their helpless victims.
God loves transvestites and homosexuals. God loves the greedy, the lazy, the good-for-nothing, the employed, the unemployed, the homeless. He loves dead-beat dads.
God loves the divorced. He loves the happily married, the miserably married, the single, the widowed.
God loves those who bow down to idols and those who bow down to sports teams. He loves those who are addicted to pornography. God loves atheists, Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists. He loves those who take his name in vain. God loves evil people. He loves His enemies. He loves those who hate Him. He loves the gentle soul that wouldn't swat a fly. He loves selfish, mean, proud, vicious people. He loves everyone.
And while we might shout Amen in a church service, we will get in our cars, or be at work, or at home and wonder, does God really love the world? Because there are times when it doesn't feel like God loves me. We have friends who are watching their children suffer in the hospital right now, does God love them? We have members who are in the hospital, and have been sick and struggling for weeks, does God love them? We have friends who have lost everything in hurricanes, tornados, and fires does God love them?
We want to look at pain and suffering and say, see God doesn't love. If God truly loved then why didn't He create a world where there was no bad stuff, no suffering, and no evil?
You know, He did. In Genesis 1 we are told that when God first created the world, it was good. But God gave the crowing achievement in all of creation, mankind, the ability to choose. He gave us a free will. He did that so that we could express love to Him and to each other. It's impossible to really, truly love unless we have a choice.
So God created us with the ability to choose. The problem is that we used our ability to choose to do evil. Look at your hands for a moment. These are the hands that you use to comfort a child, or to take food to a hungry person or to build something that was helpful to someone you love. But these are also the hands that you have used to take something that didn't belong to you, or hit someone who made you mad, or to give the universal sign of disapproval when someone crossed you?
Our hands are capable of good and evil. So why do we expect God to take the blame when we are the ones who made a mess of things? If you believe that in the beginning God created, you can also believe that God did not create evil, or suffering, or death. Evil is the opposite of goodness, suffering is the opposite of wholeness, death is the opposite of abundant life. God created us with the ability to choose, and our wrong choices, bad choices have brought sin, and evil, and pain, and suffering into this world. God did not create them but He can use them.
Because God loves the world, He often uses pain to draw people to Himself. Last week Facebook showed me a memory of when the boys were younger. They were playing football in the street in front of our house and Trafton tagged Rylan a little too hard and Rylan's nose met the curb. Then Rylan did what all hurt children do, he ran to find me for comfort and to be consoled. Suffering brings us to a place where we turn away from the hurtful and hateful things we do and run towards God.
When life is good and easy and pain free, we tend to forget about God, put Him up on the shelf. But when we suffer, when we experience heartache or disappointment, we're more likely to turn to Him. God can use the bad stuff that happens in our lives to draw us to the best thing that could ever happen, an intimate relationship with Him that will last for eternity. And the truth is, any price is worth paying if it means coming to know God.
God loves the world; He loves people who don't love Him back, people who take Him for granted, avoid Him, ignore Him, or don't care about Him or His commands. God loves people who stay home on Sunday morning instead of going to church because they are wasted from partying on Saturday night, or because they prefer to read the Sunday newspaper instead of the Bible, or because they prefer to watch the football pregame shows, or because they don't want to be involved in a community of faith. God loves people, religious and irreligious people, Christians and non-Christians. God loves the world. His purpose is for the world to know His love and to come to Him and find life. In God there is no room for guilt, there is no guilt in love.
God loved … God Gave
Love has to be expressed or it isn't love. love wants to give, love wants to sacrifice, love does. God is love, so it makes sense that God would give. God didn't just say He loved us, words are cheap, He expressed His love to the world by giving. The most important demonstration of God's love is Jesus. Giving Jesus was an act of radical, unthinkable love.
The text says that God gave Jesus who was the only son, unique son, or one and only son. I grew up in a King James Only church so we learned the phrase Only Begotten Son. I think a better translation of the word μονογεν?ς (monogene??s ma-na-ga-nes) would be exact copy. You and I are called the sons and daughters of God, we are told in Genesis 1 that we were made in the image of God. But Jesus is the exact copy of God, Jesus is God.
So the text is saying that God was so in love with what God created that God sent God to die on behalf of what God created so that God could redeem what God created and bring that creation back to God. Do you follow that?
God sent God from heaven to earth to become a man and die for His creation. Everyone of us are created in the image of God and under a death sentence because we chose to sin against God. Because God is love, He is the perfect judge and He cannot just overlook our guilt and selfishness. This is why our text talks about the possibility of perishing. This perishing is not just in the sense of dying physically, but perishing forever, being condemned by God and sent into a place of eternal sorrow called hell.
We don't talk about hell, we don't want to think about hell. We want to lean into the fact that God is love; how can a loving God send us to hell? But in our text Jesus says perishing, hell, is a possibility. Those who will spend eternity in hell are the ones who chose to perish, those who allowed the things of this world, their own selfishness, to take God's place on the throne of their hearts.
I love the boys, and I the last thing I want to see is them hurting or in pain. But I understand that I cannot force them to make the right decisions. I can tell them what is right, what is loving, and what is compassionate. I can show them the right way to live but at the end of the day it's their choice. They make decisions and they have to reap the consequences of their decisions. I cannot love them enough to take away the consequences of their choices. That is the law of sowing and reaping. Paul says in Galatians 6:7 Don't be misled--you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. That is true for every one of us; we all have to face the consequences of our choices and actions.
Quote the text with me: For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. But can anyone quote the next verse? For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
Even though we have the ability to choose a way of life that demands we perish, God became man and came to earth where He lived a perfect life of obedience, suffered torture, was nailed to a cross, and suffered until He died. You and I deserved that fate, we deserved to perish forever for our sins, but God gave Jesus as our substitute. We can never be good enough to pay for our own sins, so God became man and suffered and died on the cross.
That was the whole point of God becoming man and giving Himself on our behalf. God did not enter into time and space so that He could condemn us. If God wanted to give us what we deserve, He could have saved Himself a lot of pain and anguish and stayed in heaven. But God left heaven, and humbled Himself. He became a part of creation so that He could make love real and available. God left Heaven so that His love could save us.
Maybe you have experienced things that make you doubt God's love for you. Maybe you have suffered sexual abuse, or you have had physical problems, disabilities, or diseases, or you have suffered failure after failure. Maybe people have rejected you, and life has been hard, even agonizing. Maybe you grew up in a painful family situation, or with no family, or your parents ignored you. You may have suffered one setback and heartbreak and failure after another.
Whatever has happened to, those things do not mean that God does not love you. When God gave the world Jesus, He left no doubt about His love for all people universal and His love for you specifically. When you think of Jesus on the cross, you should hear God the Father saying, "This is what I am willing to give for you. This is how much I love you." You should also hear Jesus, God the Son, saying from the cross, "This is what I am willing to give for you. This is how much I love you."
But God's love demands a response. I quick story as we close: Augustine, a leader in the church approximately 400 years after Christ, grew up living a rough life filled with brokenness and selfishness. But someone introduced Him to Christ and it made a profound impact and change in his life. The story is told that not long after his conversion he was walking down a street and came across a prostitute whom he had known very intimately. She spoke to him, but he would not answer and continued to walk. She was surprised and called to him again, "Augustine, It is I!" Never breaking stride he simply said: "Yes, but it is no longer I." His new found belief had made a dramatic change in his life. He did not just come to belief in God, but a change had taken place. The old was gone because the new had come.

Imagining your budget starting in "the middle" take note of which factors might move the budget up or down...i.e. wanting to remodel to encourage a sale might move the budget down, remodeling to wow guest might max it out
Courtney Vaughan Kitchen, 2018-10-06 03:51:47. Any remodeling idea for a small kitchen must address the following issues: counter space, storage, built-ins, and pantry. When planning on a kitchen remodeling project, the budget is the first thing to consider. Whether you've got a big budget or a small one for your kitchen remodeling project, it's wise to try to make sure your spending doesn't spiral out of control as the process continues.
Consuelo Keller Kitchen, 2018-10-06 03:51:50. Choose the unsuitable kitchen remodeler, and your project could possibly be a nightmare that ultimately ends up costing much more time and funds than forecasted, stressing you with incidents, errors and code violations, and leaving you having a kitchen that may not necessarily end up being as functional or attractive as you'd been assured at the begin of this project. Pick out the appropriate kitchen remodeler, though, and it is possible to expect a process that progresses effortlessly and without terrible surprises.
Clarissa Irwin Kitchen, 2018-10-06 03:51:49. A kitchen remake is one of the most desirable home improvement projects for many Houston area homeowners. A Kitchen remodeling is one of the best investments you can make when it comes to home improvement and often adds more than the cost of the project to the value of the home. Specifically, a kitchen remodel provides the highest return on value of any form of remodeling. Kitchen remodeling is a lot of work, but the results can be spectacular.

What is the meaning of the automotive mouldings? China's stake saving bearing collecting development which is the self-governing educated property is more material-saving. It is the energy saving than the conventional bi-metal bearing amassing designing. It obliges fewer wanders and less utilization of this thing. Subsequently, it is a surprising chance for development. Until the completion of the patent grant of Automotive mold self-lobbing up composite metal brightening pass. China had completed the modifying of the standard and existing sintering bi-metal collecting advancement of sliding bearing through twenty years' collection and thoughts. What's more a short time later China comprehended the shape gathering of various bearing orders which is a result of the steel and copper combos. There are bushing bearing, push bearing, sliding course with outstanding shapes, and sliding heading with solid oils, et cetera. How the plastic organization in china advanced?
Some other critical things about the injection moulding
On the other hand, some scratch parts, for instance, tomahawks aide, bearing greenery, push washers and auto mold standard parts mainly depend upon imports. This conveys both the dazzling chances and mind blowing tests to the Chinese bearing makers. And auto mold amassing business endeavours. The rate of utilization of the steel and copper composite materials has landed at just about one hundred percent. The net shape collecting system serves to extra materials and vigour so as to outfit sliding bearing additional items for the change of the China's auto industry. How would you think about auto mouldings? Did you get the main point? For more information visit our site: - http://www.china-plastic-molding.com/

A very traditional German yeast cake with caramelized almonds, a delicious butter cream filling and a peculiar name! Bienenstich means "bee sting". As a child I always thought the name came from its honey sweetness. But legend says that in 1474 the citizens of Linz planned to attack the neighboring town of Andernach because the Emperor had drawn custom duties from the city of Linz and had given the funds to the city of Andernach. In the morning of the planned attack two baker boys from Andernach walked along the town wall to snack on some honey from bee hives that were hanging along the wall. When the baker boys saw the attackers from Linz they deftly threw the bee hives at them. Stung by the bees the attackers fled. And to celebrate the victory a honey sweet and very special cake was made. The "bee sting", or Bienenstich. Makes me wonder how the baker boys got away without any bee stings worth mentioning! But I guess it's not relevant to the story. My family loves Bienenstich and I have to guard the buttercream or I would never have enough to finish the cake.
For the cake:
- One package of active dry yeast or one cube of fresh yeast
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 8 tablespoons (one stick) unsalted butter
- zest of one lemon
For the topping:
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
- a pinch of salt
For the butter cream custard filling:
- 1 cup whole milk
- One vanilla bean
- 3 large egg yolks at room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar divided into two
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- a pinch of sea salt
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 2 sticks of butter at room temperature
To make the cake, dissolve the dry yeast in a bit of warm water to activate it. Or, if you are using fresh yeast, sift the flour into your mixing bowl, press a little hole into the top of the flour, crumble the yeast into the hole and sprinkle the yeast with a little sugar to activate it. Let stand for 10 minutes.
In the meantime, gently heat the milk together with the butter in a heavy saucepan to lukewarm, just until the butter is melted. Add the sugar, eggs, lemon zest and salt to the flour in your mixing bowl, together with the yeast. This is a sticky yeast dough. I use my electric mixer for this dough fitted with the pastry hook. I set the mixer on low speed and add the milk in a slow stream until the dough is well combined. Then I set the speed of the mixer to medium high and let the machine work the dough for a couple of minutes. If you do not have an electric mixer I recommend that you use a wooden spoon to combine this dough, work it well! It will be sticky. Scrape the dough off the sides of the bowl and cover the bowl with cellophane. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
Butter a 9" round cake pan that has tall sides. Pour the batter into the cake pan and spread it around with your spatula to make it coat the bottom of the cake pan evenly. Cover with cellophane again and let it rise for another 30 minutes. Bienenstich is traditionally baked on a sheet pan resulting in rectangular cake bars. I have an adjustable square baking rim that I just love, and I am using it for my Bienenstich set to 9" square.
To prepare the topping, combine all of the ingredients except for the almonds in a heavy, medium size saucepan. Heat over medium heat and cook for 4-5 minutes to thicken and caramelize. Turn off the heat and add the almonds. Mix well to coat the almonds. Let the mixture cool slightly and spread it evenly over the top of the cake batter. I think I was chatting with my Aunt Margarete on the phone and did not do quite as good of a job spreading the almonds evenly, which is why I got some dimples in my cake. It might not look as polished and professional but it still ended up tasting amazing!
Let the cake rise for another 15 minutes with the topping. Preheat the oven to 350ºF while the cake is rising one last time. Bake for about 30-35 minutes. The cake is done when the topping is nicely browned and a cake tester or wooden skewer comes out clean.
Let the cake cool for about 15-20 minutes before inverting it upside down on a cooling rack and removing it from the pan. Flipping the cake upside down will help to level the top especially if yours is as dimpled as mine. You might lose a couple of almonds and even a few drops of the caramel but the almonds can be set back on top of the cake when you are done. Let the cake cool completely, then invert it back right side up onto a platter and slice it in half horizontally.
In the meantime make the buttercream. Split the vanilla bean in half and combine it with the milk in a heavy saucepan. Heat over medium heat. Combine the 2 sticks of butter with 1/4 cup of sugar in the bowl of your standard mixer and beat until light and fluffy for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile make the custard. Combine the egg yolks and sugar in another mixing bowl and whisk vigorously until pale and ribbony. Add the cornstarch and salt, mixing and whisking well. Drizzle in the warm milk, a spoonful at a time, whisking continuously (you are allowed to take a break whisking while you pour in the milk for a second, just work quickly but don't panic). After you have added about half of the milk you may add the rest a little more quickly. Pour the mixture back into a saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking the entire time, until the mixture bubbles and thickens. Remove the pan from the heat. Continue whisking while adding the 2 tablespoons of butter. Let the custard mixture cool to room temperature and then add it to the butter mixture a spoonful at a time, mixing constantly on medium speed. The butter and the custard have to be at the same temperature or else the cream will separate. This will make a lovely custard butter cream that is very authentic to what is used in Germany, but kind of better! Most German recipes just use store bought vanilla pudding mixes that are combined with butter as described above - and that works just fine and tastes pretty good too. Refrigerate the cream if it seems too soft.
Fill the cake with the vanilla cream and serve the same day. I have high expectations about the photography of my food for this blog and I feel like I was not able to really capture the beauty of this cake. It was long gone and eaten before the light was right and I probably should have chilled the cake to slice it more precisely for the picture but that would have compromised the taste. Honestly, this cake tastes best kind of messy and fresh.

Internet: Basket In Which We Put All Our EggsMay 30, 2013, 06:00 (0 Talkback[s])
(Other stories by Christine Hall)
It's not very comforting to realize that something I figured-out, as ignorant as I am, back in the 1990s is only now being understood by those who are being paid big bucks to protect us. It's also not very comforting to know that the controls for nuclear power plants and the like are accessible by the same Internet that can't keep credit card numbers safe despite draconian requirements by Visa and Master Card. I???m not going to ask "why?" I'm not going to point out that for several decades we seemed to run our power plants just fine without our engineers being able to make adjustments on a laptop from home.

I took a little blog break over Easter – not exactly planned, but we have had a busy few weeks here! The end of term craziness merged into Easter preparations, lots of baking and crafting, and of course a little chocolate eating!
Just before Easter we visited Basildon Park, otherwise known as a filming location for Downton Abbey (I've never seen it, I must be the only person in the country who hasn't!). The spring flowers were out in the beautiful grounds, and Mia and Joe loved running through the woodland nature trail. I have put together a little photo diary of our visit…
We also visited inside the house, which has some real treasures of its own, including the kitchen in perfect 1950s style, with a whole cupboard of vintage jelly moulds!
And a shell room…I definitely need one of these at home! Lovely low glowy lighting and museum style shelves filled with ornate shells from all over the world.
Oh, and the books in the library! These are only some of them, in their rich jewel-toned covers they just looked so tempting. I would loved to have climed the special little library ladder to choose one and then nestle down on one of the comfy library chairs for a few hours.
I am really enjoying our winter-spring walks at the moment, often at these lovely old National Trust properties. We are lucky enough to live within an hours drive of so many. They are the perfect balance of plenty of outdoors space to explore, beautifully planted gardens, and more often than not, a tea room too, to end the day with cake!

Prospective Students
Engineers play an important role in almost every aspect of modern life. As an engineer in the 21st century, you'll work in teams to develop ingenious ways to transform the world in which we live. Industrial engineers are in high demand in nearly every industry.
Industrial engineers figure out how to do things better. They engineer processes and systems that improve quality and productivity. They work to eliminate waste of time, money, materials, energy, and other commodities. Most important of all, IEs save companies money. This is why more and more companies are hiring industrial engineers and then promoting them into management positions.
Many people are misled by the term "industrial engineer." The 'industrial" does not mean just manufacturing. It encompasses service industries as well. It has long been known that industrial engineers have the technical training to make improvements in a manufacturing setting. Now it is becoming increasingly recognized that these same techniques can be used to evaluate and improve productivity and quality in service industries.
Admission into the industrial engineering program is competitive, but our admission process is a personal one. Each application is reviewed holistically for strength of academic preparation, performance on standardized tests, counselor recommendations, and your personal career interests. We seek applicants from a variety of geographical, social, cultural, economic, and ethnic backgrounds.
For more information on undergraduate and graduate admission please visit RIT's Undergraduate or Graduate Admissions Offices.
The bachelor of science degree in industrial engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org
Cooperative education
All undergraduate programs in the Gleason College have a cooperative education requirement. Co-op generally starts after completing two years of the program and ends so that the last semester attended is in residence. Co-ops may be one or two semesters in length and at any company that satisfies the program's requirements. Academic advisers can provide students with information concerning the co-op experience. The average salary for industrial engineering co-op students is $17.00 an hour.
Students have access to their program chairperson, a faculty adviser, a full-time academic adviser, the academic advising office in the College of Liberal Arts, and program coordinators from the Office of Cooperative Education and Career Services dedicated to specific engineering departments. In addition, office staff provide support for registration and help with records and scheduling. Part-time and evening students can arrange for these services at night by appointment.
Academic Enrichment
Honors Program: The Honors Program is designed to enhance the academic and professional experiences of qualifying students. In addition to participating in Honors general education curriculum, students have access to special courses, seminars, projects, and advising in the Gleason College.
The RIT Honors Engineering program provides gifted engineering students the experiences above and beyond those offered in standard engineering classes. Students take honors engineering classes that emphasize product development in a global economy. Travel and field trips to key industrial sites allow students to observe core engineering disciplines as practiced in a variety of corporate environments and to appreciate the many dimensions of engineering professions. Seminars and social events with engineering faculty and advisers round out the program. Visit the RIT Honors Program for additional information.
Study Abroad: International experience is becoming increasingly more important for students to demonstrate in the engineering world. Employers, for both co-op and permanent positions, continually seek out candidates whose resumes show evidence of experience in an international setting. There are many opportunities to study engineering courses at universities around the world. At some schools the courses are taught in a foreign language. If you haven't yet mastered a foreign language there are other universities that teach courses in English.
Engineering students interested in studying abroad should also consider taking a term at RIT Dubai. Here they can stay current with their RIT courses while experiencing another culture and studying with students from a wide variety of countries in the Middle East and beyond. All classes are taught in English and carry RIT credit.
Check out http://www.rit.edu/academicaffairs/studyabroad/ for opportunities and to get more information.
Minors: RIT offers students more than 100 minors to choose from to enhance their academic program or further develop a personal area of interest. The industrial and systems engineering department offers the following minors:
- Engineering Management
- Sustainable Product Development
Special Opportunities
Options: Undergraduate students may choose to focus their upper level course work on one of the following options:
- Ergonomics
- Lean Six Sigma
- Supply Chain Management
- Sustainable Engineering
Accelerated and dual degree options are available to current ISE students who qualify academically. Students may apply for these programs in their second year of study.
Accelerated dual degree option: An accelerated, five-year dual BS/MS or BS/MEng degree is available to qualified students. These degrees offer students the opportunity to earn a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in less time than pursuing each degree individually. Students can combine their BS degree with any of the departments master's degrees.
Another opportunity is to combine the BS in industrial engineering with an MBA from the Saunders College of Business at RIT. This program includes five years of study for the BS and one year of study for the MBA. More information can be found here, or contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
Graduate study: The Industrial and Systems Engineering Department offers master of science degrees in industrial and systems engineering and sustainable engineering. Master of engineering degrees are offered in engineering management, industrial and systems engineering, and sustainable engineering. In the master of engineering program additional coursework and a capstone project with paper replaces the thesis required in the master of science degree program. Please refer to Graduate Admissions or the ISE website for more information.

4 cups whole oats
3 cups nuts (any kind) I used almonds and chopped them in a food processor a few seconds
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup olive oil ( melted coconut if you prefer)
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tbsp. cinnamon
pinch of sea salt
1 cup of raisins (to be added after baking)
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients (excluding raisins) and mix well. Mix wet ingredients separately, then pour over dry mixture until all oats are well-covered. Transfer to greased baking sheets and bake for 10 minutes. Turn mixture a bit and bake another 10 minutes.
Let cool on pans and break up, leaving some chunks (if you like). Add raisins, then transfer to pretty mason jars or whatever your heart desires. Serve with Brown Cow Maple yogurt, milk, or just eat by the handful like my kids (and husband) do. Enjoy! (I double this for our family and it barely lasts a week)
This recipe was adapted from one my friend Sandy Kittinger gave me. Thanks, Sandy!

Some time ago, Amnesty International joined some other human right organisations in a campaign to support the decriminalisation of sex work. Open Society Foundations, Human Rights Watch, World Health Organisation, UNAIDS, the Global Alliance Against Trafficking in Women are all organisation that believe it shouldnt be illegal to exchange sex for money. Here are four reasons why everyone should be on the same page with them.
- Decriminalisation can have a positive effect in law enforcement. People whose way of earning a living is considered a crime cannot trust law enforcement and try leading a lawful life. Accepting that an activity is illegal can only encourage other, truly dangerous activities evolve around it.
- Ιt can diminish new HIV and other STD transmissions. A lawful sexual activity has a proven better chance of abiding hygiene rules. A last year study published in the Lancet showed that global decriminalisation can decrease tranmission statistics almost to the half. Police officers up until now use condoms as evidence of prostitutional activity, which is an act that isnt exaclty promoting a protected sex culture.
- It can grately improve working conditions, as an illegal activity cannot be kept in a dignified condition. In addition, it would help protect women from violence, as victims of sexual harassment will have the ability to ask for law protection.
- It is a true freedom of choice matter. If people want to sell their bodies, then why shouldnt they be able to? Not all sex workers are victims of trafficking. Keeping sex work a crime is more likely a matter of morals that are really not up to date, rather than a true criminal behavior.

Insight Prison Project Insight Prison Project
Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
Transforming the lives of those impacted by crime and incarceration through evidenced-based programs designed to develop behavior inspired by insight, accountability, and compassion.
IPP is a pioneer in the field of Restorative Justice. It was founded in 1997 in San Quentin, and is now offered throughout the state in prisons, jails, and reentry facilities. IPP's Victim Offender Education Group (VOEG) offers a rare opportunity for crime victims to participate in the criminal justice system. Every VOEG group culminates in a Survivors' Panel, in which people who have been victims of crimes similar to those committed by the offenders, can share the impact of crime with offenders. This is a unique and critical element of VOEG, as offenders can be accountable directly to a victim of violent crime. It allows survivors to see and hear accountability, remorse, and empathy directly from offenders. Meeting face-to-face with victims is the single most important factor in transforming harmful behavior and the subsequent empathy that is developed by sitting with and hearing from the victims of violent crime.

The Old Armchair - Poem by Robert William Service
In all the pubs from Troon to Ayr
Grandfather's father would repair
With Bobby Burns, a drouthy pair,
The glass to clink;
And oftenwhiles, when not too "fou,"
They'd roar a bawdy stave or two,
From midnight muk to morning dew,
And drink and drink.
And Grandfather, with eye aglow
And proper pride, would often show
An old armchair where long ago
The Bard would sit;
Reciting there with pawky glee
"The Lass that Made the Bed for Me;"
Or whiles a rhyme about the flea
That ne'er was writ.
Then I would seek the Poet's chair
And plant my kilted buttocks there,
And read with joy the Bard of Ayr
In my own tongue;
The Diel, the Daisy and the Louse
The Hare, the Haggis and the Mouse,
(What fornication and carouse!)
When I was young.
Though Kipling, Hardy, Stevenson
Have each my admiration won,
Today, my rhyme-race almost run,
My fancy turns
To him who did Pegasus prod
For me, Bard of my native sod,
The sinner best-loved of God -
Rare Robbie Burns.
