The Gujarat results are being made sense of in different ways, but a dominant
narrative has emerged. The Congress managed to put together alliances with
leaders of local movements, Rahul Gandhi did a better job of leading the campaign
than expected, the BJP was in real trouble till PM Modi, aided by some free gifts
from Kapil Sibal and Mani Aiyar, put everything behind the campaign and made
himself the key issue, thereby managing to eke out a win. Brand Modi carried the
day, proving once more that his connection with Indian voters continues to be solid.
The BJP victory, in the urban areas, showed that issues like demonetisation and
GST had run their course, and would no longer be electoral issues going forward.
This is a reasonable reading of events, but perhaps there is another way to see this.
Narendra Modi might have pulled the party out of a mess at the last minute, but who
brought the party to that point? For Modi to come this close to a defeat in Gujarat,
not just his home state, but the pinnacle of his achievement, the showcase that
dazzled the rest of the country into believing in the possibility of a radical
transformation in 2014, is something that should cause the PM and his party great
anxiety. The polarised nature of the debate around BJP's strongest electoral asset
Mr Modi is such that a dispassionate analysis of his position becomes difficult.
From the perspective of political management, Mr Modi, with the help of Amit Shah
has run Gujarat for several years now. The argument put forward that they have
somehow, against great odds not of their making, and in spite of anti-incumbency
arising out of their 22-year rule and motivated caste-based social movements,
managed to win a personal victory is hard to stomach. If the Gujarat model was
everything it was meant to be, what reasons existed for any anti-incumbency? If
anything, given that Gujarat's favourite CM is now running the country, the voters
should have endorsed him resoundingly and strengthened his hands.
As for the Patidar issue, The Modi-Shah combine had more than enough time to find
a way to deal with it. They bear eventual responsibility for the party's strategy to deal
with Hardik Patel. Patel was put in jail and he alleged that the BJP circulated sex
CDs to discredit him. Their management of the party's Dalit problem, particular in the
aftermath of the Una atrocity has been lethargic, to put it mildly. Equally, the decision
to install weak CMs is again theirs, and the fact that the Rupani-Patel duo is back
suggests that they have put politics and their desire to retain control, over the
interests of the state. After Modi, this is a clear signal that the state does not deserve
its own administrative engine; it will have to live on second-hand governance from
Delhi. The truth is that Brand Modi may have saved the situation in the elections, but
PM Modi was responsible for creating it in the first place.
Also, it might be wise for BJP strategists not to read its strong showing in urban
Gujarat as a sign that the demonetisation and GST issues are over from an electoral
standpoint, for there is a possibility that urban Gujarat voted to signal belonging to an
identity cohort rather than indicate approval of policies. The BJP needed to be sent a
message rather than be sent packing. Which means that in other states, where the
Hindu identification with the BJP is not as pronounced, demonetisation and GST
might continue to be factors.
Even from a personal standpoint, Gujarat is not all good news for Mr Modi. He may
have worked his magic at the end, but it took a lot of hard labour and an unseemly
amount of negativity. The crowds were thinner in places, and had he not got the
windfall gift from the Congress that helped him raise the emotional pitch of his
campaign, things might well have turned out differently. Again, this was Gujarat
which is his home turf and a place where he enjoys a special connection with the
voters and it does not reflect what might happen elsewhere.
He might still carry more political heft than any other leader, certainly much more so
than Rahul Gandhi, but this may not count for as much in 2019. In 2014, Modi the
individual was central for he was the source of hope and belief. As an incumbent, he
is now surrounded not just by his own aura, which continues to be considerable, but
also by the effect of his policies and pronouncements. His record at the Centre has
many supporters, but it lacks the allure created around the Gujarat Model. Overall,
he is not the brand he was in 2014, although he continues to have a strong core of
passionate believers.
In any case, the tendency to look at politics through the frame of brands or
individuals can be misleading. As an individual Modi has no peer in politics currently,
but winning elections is not just about one's abilities as a politician. The Brand Modi
vs Brand Rahul debate makes for good television, but in a real sense, it does not
mean too much. Rahul Gandhi's new-found respectability as a politician does not
substantially alter the issues that the Congress is grappling with, and Modi's
continued stature, if somewhat diminished may not automatically translate into an
electoral victory. The 2019 election is likely to shed some of the presidential
character of the 2014 one, and this is to Mr Modi's disadvantage.
There is no question that Narendra Modi is a political phenomenon of our times. But
Gujarat might be a sign that what worked in 2014 may not work in the same way
going forward. The BJP needs more fuel in its tank, and an approach less dependent
on the personality of Narendra Modi. As the incumbent, he needs to evolve a new
playbook, and Gujarat shows that this hasn't happened so far.

A Converting Quicken Data to Peachtree Accounting
Getting Started Guide
Posting Transactions
Since you are using the Batch posting method, you must post the transactions
manually. Follow these steps:
1 From the Tasks menu, select System, then Post.
Peachtree displays the Post window.
If you chose the Real-Time posting method during New Company
Setup, this menu option will not be available.
2 Select the All Journals option and click OK.
Changing the Posting Method
Before you actually begin entering new transactions in Peachtree Accounting,
it is recommended that you change to the Real-Time posting method. Most
companies use this method because transactions are posted to the General
Ledger as they are recorded in the program.
Use this procedure to change your posting method, if desired.
1 From the Maintain menu, select Company Information.
Peachtree displays the Maintain Company Information window.
2 Select the lookup button to the right of Posting Method.
3 Select the Real-time posting option and click OK.
All transactions that were not previously posted are posted.
Checking the Results
To ensure that the data from Quicken has been imported accurately into
Peachtree Accounting, we suggest that you print these reports for comparison
to the Quicken reports you printed prior to exporting the data.
• Year end G/L Report (shows all activity for all accounts)
• Income Statement (current)
• Balance Sheet (current)
• Chart of Accounts list
Getting Acquainted
To get acquainted with Peachtree Accounting, you can view the Peachtree
Accounting tutorial, available from the Help menu. For a more hands-on
approach, you can work through the written tutorial in this book.

Frequently Asked Questions
Troubleshooting the Quicken Conversion
Below are frequently asked questions that may help you resolve errors when
starting or working with Peachtree Accounting.
Frequently Asked Questions
The following section lists common questions that occur when importing
Quicken data into Peachtree Accounting.
What is converted from Quicken?
All transactions are converted for the date range you selected. You should
convert all transactions in Quicken for the most accurate conversion.
Categories and subcategories are converted as individual accounts in
Peachtree Accounting. If you want to report them as you did in Quicken (roll
up subcategories into categories), you should refer to the "Creating a
Company" chapter of the User's Guide for information about masking.
You will have the opportunity to convert anyone to whom you wrote a check
into a vendor or employee, and anyone from whom you received money into
a customer.
How long will conversion take?
The length of the conversion process depends on how many transactions you
have in Quicken. If there aren't many (100,000 bytes or less), it will probably
take 30-45 minutes. But if you have many transactions (indicated by file size),
it could take several hours.
Where are my categories listed when I do the export from
Even though Quicken doesn't show your categories as separate files, they are
there. Your Quicken categories are included in your accounts.
A Converting Quicken Data to Peachtree Accounting
Getting Started Guide
When setting up my company in Peachtree, what should my first
accounting period be?
In Quicken, it is never necessary to "close" a period. In fact, there is no way to
close, so all the transactions you ever entered into Quicken are accessible. In
Peachtree, you can have two years or 24 periods open, meaning that you can
access (display) the transactions in these periods.
Any transaction entered in Quicken prior to the date you enter as your first
accounting period will not be accessible in Peachtree. Generally, this first date
should be the beginning of your current fiscal year, for example, January 1,
2000. But if you want access to previous transactions, it might be the
beginning of the previous fiscal year.
No Quicken transactions that you made prior to the first Peachtree
accounting period you enter will be accessible in Peachtree Accounting. For
example, if you have a service charge in November 1998, but enter your first
accounting period as January 1, 1999, you can't edit that service charge
What should be my first accounting period that I want to enter
data in (Peachtree setup)?
To make it easier to check your Quicken data, this should be the first period
of your first fiscal year.
Should I set up Peachtree for Real-time or Batch Posting?
For the conversion process, it is faster if you set up Peachtree in batch. Later,
after your data is converted and you verify it, you can change to real-time
What happens if I don't select a Quicken payee as a vendor,
employee, or customer?
The transactions are converted, but the "person" is not added as a vendor,
employee, or customer.
When I start Peachtree Accounting and attempt to import the
Quicken data, it says no QIF files found. What's wrong?
When you exported in Quicken, did you specify the directory in which to put
the files? Does each exported Quicken file have the QIF extension (for
example, CHECKING.QIF.)?
In Peachtree Accounting, have you entered the directory correctly? You
cannot type anything else after the directory name (for example,
Troubleshooting the Quicken Conversion
Frequently Asked Questions
I had over two years of data and I can't get to some of my
transactions from last year in Peachtree. What's wrong?
Peachtree Accounting allows you to have access to 24 periods, or basically two
years of data. If the dates of your Quicken data were before the first
accounting period you entered during setup, these transactions cannot be
displayed although the amounts for them are accounted for.
When I attempted to change to another accounting period,
Peachtree said I had checks to print, but I didn't write any. What's
the problem?
Did you have any balance adjustments or service charges in any Quicken
accounts (checkbooks)? When you converted these, because they came out of
your checkbook and they didn't have any check number on them, Peachtree
considers that they're unprinted (therefore unpaid) checks.
To clear this up, select Payments from Peachtree Accounting's Tasks menu,
then click the Edit button. If there are any unnumbered "items" in the edit list,
double-click on them to display them. If you have really made this payment
(such as a service charge or balance adjustment), enter a special check number
(such as SC1 or BA1) and post it.
What happened to my subcategories? They don't roll up into my
categories any more.
Peachtree Accounting uses a different technique to roll amounts into a main
account. Read about account numbering and masking to learn more about
how you can do this. We recommend that you read this before you perform
the conversion because account numbers in Peachtree cannot be changed.
What are all the entries in this Retained Earnings account?
Quicken transactions that you did not allocate to a category or that have not
been posted are put into your retained earnings account. One reason a
transaction has not been posted would be because Peachtree considers it a
check without a number (such as a service charge or balance adjustment).
A Converting Quicken Data to Peachtree Accounting
Getting Started Guide
What happened to my invoice transactions I imported from
Quicken Home & Business Edition?
Quicken Home & Business Edition allows you to invoice payees. These
transactions are converted as separate General Journal entries and are not part
of the Peachtree Accounting's Sales/Invoicing system. To display Quicken
invoices, you must display the General Journal from Peachtree Accounting's
Reports menu or select the Edit button in the General Journal Entry task
window. To enter a receipt for a converted Quicken invoice, you must enter
a cash sale in the Receipts window, selecting the accounts receivable account
in the Apply to Revenues tab. For more information, see "Converting from
Quicken 99" on page 215.

You might not like the answer. This husband sure doesn't seem to.
Question: My husband and I read your book [Power Up]. Well, I read it. He stopped halfway, when you wrote, "Learning to live without credit cards is an integral part of financial empowerment." He says that he could not do it.
We have around $2,000 on the two cards we share. It doesn't hurts our lifestyle, but it's annoying to pay all those fees. We're slowly paying it off, and when we do, I want to take your advice and live like you said, "without laying down that piece of plastic."
My husband says credit cards can earn you big rewards, and on your website there is a credit card expert who recommends what credit cards to get based on how you can earn those rewards. My husband wants to know, "which is it?"
— Brianna, New York
Howard Dvorkin CPA answers…
I know this sounds like a cop out, but you're both right.
The simple fact is, the best free debt advice I can give (or paid advice, for that matter) is what I wrote in Power Up…
"Those who don't use credit cards take money much more seriously than credit card users. The act of physically handing over the dollars and cents to a cashier or waitress generates a feeling of loss. That money is gone. When you hand over a credit card…you can worry about the bill later and you may not think about it at all."
That's why I advise credit card addicts to go cold turkey. Being addicted to credit cards is no different than any other addiction, and the solution is the same: Don't tempt yourself.
To continue the analogy, just because some people are addicted to alcohol doesn't mean we should return to Prohibition. Our nation supports responsible drinking — and it punishes irresponsible drinking.
I think of credit cards the same way.
If you and you husband pay off your credit card debt soon, Brianna, and you're confident you won't run up that debt again — then yes, it's fine to get a credit card that can do you the most good.
That might be one of the five best reward cards out there right now, or the five best airline cards, or the five best cashback cards. I want Debt.com to help those in debt to get out, but I also want to encourage those who are out of debt to prosper. Responsibly using a credit card can really rack up the savings — as long as you pay off the balance on time every month.
I hope this explanation helps your husband, because I want him to finish my book!
Have a debt question?
Email your question to firstname.lastname@example.com and Howard Dvorkin will review it. Dvorkin is a CPA, chairman of Debt.com, and author of two personal finance books, Credit Hell: How to Dig Yourself Out of Debt and Power Up: Taking Charge of Your Financial Destiny.

Trial and Error: Students and Alumni Lead OER Factory
Professors at California community college submit requests for OER materials to a team of students and recent graduates, who set to work on curation.
Trial and Error is a recurring feature from "Inside Digital Learning" that examines the successes and struggles of technology initiatives on campuses and in classrooms, on the assumption that we learn as much, if not more, from failure as from triumph. Have ideas for future columns? Send them to [email protected]. And be sure to comment below the story with thoughts and ideas for this institution.
The Institution: College of the Canyons, a two-year institution in Santa Clarita, Calif.
The Challenge: The institution's leaders have been hoping to adopt open educational resources for the last decade. Three years ago, they felt the concept hadn't yet gone mainstream enough to gather widespread support on campus -- even as more instructors were beginning to climb onboard, according to James Glapa-Grossklag, the college's dean of educational technology, learning resources and distance learning.
"We were at a point at which we knew we were getting some traction with faculty," Glapa-Grossklag said. "We could see the workload beginning to increase. We didn't have the bandwidth in terms of time or tech skills in-house to do justice to the requests that we were getting from faculty to look for content."
The Goal: Administrators thought getting a student involved behind the scenes of OER at the college might spur further growth. Through word of mouth, they heard about a student, Natalie Miller, who already had several jobs on campus: student services, student outreach and in the health center. They hired Miller without knowing exactly what they wanted her to do. She quickly took ownership of the position, and the college moved to expand the team to four.
The Experiment: Miller dove headfirst into the job -- unprompted, she started talking to individual professors, creating a brochure and sitting on the quad to promote OER to passing students.
"She really crafted what would become the duties of the position because she has so much gumption and self-initiative," Glapa-Grossklag said. "I'd like to say that it was some master strategic vision, but the role and the duties of the position came from being fortunate enough to hire a really smart person."
Instructors contact Miller's team with specific requests for textbooks, and the team members do their best to start assembling the materials. A worker with some level of expertise in the subject matter takes the lead. The team reports to Brian Weston, director of distance and accelerated learning. The average workweek for each student worker is 20 hours. Pay is above minimum wage -- between $16.75 and $18.75 per hour.
"It's very independent," said Trudi Radtke, who attended the college from 2012 to 2014, earned a bachelor's degree in history from the Master's College in 2016 and will begin pursuing a master's in history this fall at California State University Northridge. "It is a lot of piecing bits of information together. Lots of communication between the professor and the OER assistant."
Some textbooks take a month to complete, while more nuanced or complicated projects can take several months or even half a year, Radtke said. A set of resources for a class on water systems technology, for instance, was a longer-term project because it required "starting from zero" to create diagrams and Photoshop visualizations while synthesizing a high volume of complex technical terms.
Successes: Professors often don't have time to find free web tools to create graphics or other multimedia for their course content. Tech-savvy student workers help fill that gap, according to Radtke. Those extra steps also make OER more appealing to outside observers.
"When you're creating a free material, you don't want 'free' to be immediately equated with 'cheap,'" Radtke said. "You want the textbook to have an element of design, continuity."
Faculty members often describe the initial search process for suitable course materials as "a drag." Under this model, students complete that work for them, leaving the discipline-specific efforts to the subject-matter expert.
Students also serve as effective messengers for the OER philosophy, Glapa-Grossklag said.
"I'm a middle-aged white guy who's got the title of a dean," Glapa-Grossklag said. "I'm not as credible and convincing about the need to update your content and reduce the cost barriers of textbooks as a student is."
Similarly, students and recent graduates have more insight into how their peers think. The student team can "write [quiz questions] in a manner where the question is still being answered to satisfy the understanding of knowledge, but written in a way to where the students know what is being asked of them," said Glapa-Grossklag.
Beyond the skills they're acquiring, Glapa-Grossklag also hopes student workers come away with a better sense of how the institution operates and whom it hopes to serve.
Challenges: The student team experiences consistent turnover as students graduate and move away from the institution, according to Weston. Those built-in deadlines force the team to be creative about scheduling projects and ensure that professors have a "baseline of support" from a team even when multiple students are working on their textbook, he said.
Students sometimes come into the team with loftier expectations for their involvement in the projects than what they end up doing, according to Weston. He welcomes their eagerness but works to keep them within their role.
"We have to remind them that our faculty are the experts," Weston said. "Students are here to help them infuse and give ideas, not to write."
What's Next: Weston hopes to expand the team to foster more student involvement in OER efforts. He also hopes to see the institution formalize its commitment to OER and affordable publishing, perhaps persuaded by a coalition of students.
"It'd be more of a grassroots effort on the student campaign part to help continue to support OER in the future," Weston said.

First free weekend since the jam ended, how did I use it?
I used it well!
Many small improvements and one new feature (the cat statues); final polish, you could say.
Taken that the project did pretty well in the polls, a post-jam version was certainly needed. Having promised it multiple times during the jam, as always, was a factor too.

A Complete collection of religious jewelry,
catholic patron saint medals, guardian angel lapel pins, and
christian crosses. Specializing in catholic gifts first holy
communion gift ideas and confirmation gifts.
* We
have added many new items, See a complete collection by clicking
on the images.
Baptism - A Sacrament of Great Celebration
Baptism is a time of great celebration for a family
and the parish community. It is the sacrament when a
new member of the church receives the Holy
Spirit for the first time. This baptism celebration
calls for friends, family, and parish members to gather
together to welcome the newest member of the church.
Baptism Gift Ideas:
" Baptism Medal - A sterling silver medal
which displays the Holy Spirit and the word Baptism
below the cross is a baptism gift that can be passed
down through the generations. The baptism medal also
makes a gorgeous godchild gift for that special child
whose spiritual life is put into your hands.
" Scallop Shell Medal with the Dove of Peace
- This sterling silver medal has the unique shape of
the scallop
shell with a raised dove on the front, symbolizing
the Holy Spirit. This is a timeless gift that can be
worn by infants, children, and adults. It is the perfect
gift for baptism.
" Baby Badge - This type of baby badge is available
in sterling silver or gold. Attach a medal of the baby's
patron saint, a guardian angel, or the Holy Spirit dove
for a personalized baptism gift. The baby shoes are
appropriate for a boy baptism gift or a girl baptism
" Angel Pins - An angel
pin is always an appropriate baptism gift. Parents
especially appreciate the angel pins. They are comforted
by the image of an angel watching over their new baby,
keeping him or her safe from harm an in God's loving
" Jesus Fish Lapel Pin - The Jesus
fish is very contemporary looking although it dates
back to early Christian times. It consists of two simple
arcs that intersect, forming the tail of a fish. The
fish lapel pin has the word Jesus written in the
center. This is a perfect baptism gift for both adults
and children being baptized. Pin the Jesus fish lapel
pin on a sport jacket, or on a baby blanket.
These are just a few of the many baby baptism gifts
available. Whether you are looking for an adult, an
infant, or a child, there are a wide variety of religious
items that are appropriate for a baptism.

Grapple Beam
The Grapple Beam is a useful upgrade in the Metroid series. It allows Samus to swing across gaps and can also perform other tasks. She can only use it on set points throughout each of the games in which it appears. These points are called Grapple Points. The Grapple Beam in Super Metroid, Metroid: Other M, and the Super Smash Bros. series, is a beam released from Samus's Arm Cannon. In the Prime series, however, the Grapple Beam is an attachment to Samus's rarely used left arm.
Super Metroid
The Grapple Beam was first featured in Super Metroid. It is obtainable after defeating Crocomire. It is used to swing across Grapple Blocks, can defeat small enemies, and open doors. It can be used to quickly and easily defeat the boss Draygon.
Metroid Prime
In the first Metroid Prime, the Grapple Beam is again used to swing across gaps and lava. After being lost in the explosion on Frigate Orpheon, it can be recovered in Storage Depot B of Phazon Mines after solving a Spider Ball puzzle while fending off Metroids. Once the upgrade is obtained, a small cannon-like periphery is attached to Samus's left arm. It fires much slower than Super Metroid's and other games' Grapple Beam. Samus can also use this upgrade to grapple onto Gliders, humble bioforms with a magnetic underside.
The Grapple Beam in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes is identical both in function and appearance to Prime's Beam. It is obtained upon defeating the Grapple Guardian in Torvus Bog.
There is an interesting glitch in Echoes that allows the Grapple Beam to be held indefinitely and pointed towards other objects and enemies. It is, however, a cosmetic glitch that causes no apparent harm, nor does it enhance gameplay.
In Metroid Prime 3: Corruption the Grapple Beam receives a set of upgrades of its own. These include the Grapple Lasso, Grapple Swing, Ship Grapple Beam, Grapple Voltage, and Hyper Grapple. All Grapple upgrades are used in conjunction with a special attachment to the left hand of Samus's Power Suit that constantly glows green around its openings. The color of the beam shot out is variable depending on the type: Yellow for the Grapple Lasso, light-blue for the Grapple Swing, gray for the Ship Grapple Beam, purple for the Grapple Voltage (red when releasing energy, blue when absorbing energy), and Phazon-colored for the Hyper Grapple. All Grapple upgrades, regardless of hue, have a static-like, electric look. Samus is able to hold onto the beams, probably because of her left hand's attachment.
Other M
The beam is, once again, obtained in Metroid: Other M. It is quickly authorized as Adam, through Samus's visor, and Samus notice a Grapple Point leading to where a Rhedogian held Anthony over a pool of lava in Sector 3 (Pyrosphere). Samus uses the Grapple Beam to knock Anthony off the Rhodegian's appendages.
The Grapple Beam also plays an important part in defeating Vorash. Before the Vorash battle, Vorash attempts to eat a falling Grapple Point. The Grapple Point was, however, too large for Vorash to swallow and it stays lodged in its throat. Samus uses this to her advantage, Grappling its mouth and pulling him onto a platform to keep his stomach vulnerable as much as possible.
Super Smash Bros. series
In the Super Smash Bros. series, Samus can use the Grapple Beam, which is very similar in appearance to its Super Metroid incarnation. The Grapple Beam in Super Smash Bros. can be used to simply harm an opponent, if Samus uses it while airborne (not in the original Super Smash Bros.), or she can use it to grab opponents while she is on the ground. The Grapple Beam is much slower here than most appearances due to its long-range grab nature. Additionally, it can be used as a tether, allowing Samus to grab on to a ledge in midair. Zero Suit Samus has an ability similar to the Grapple Beam known as the Plasma Wire.
Grapple Lasso
- Main article: Grapple Lasso
The Grapple Lasso is the first Grapple Beam upgrade obtained. It is acquired almost immediately after landing on Norion. It allows Samus to rip apart enemies and structurally unsound objects that shimmer yellow. Many enemies and bosses, such as Gragnol Adults or Omega Ridley, can be damaged or stunned with the help of the Grapple Lasso. Usually, its usage entails revealing weak points in structures or creatures that can be shot and destroyed.
Grapple Swing
The Grapple Swing is the familiar version of the Grapple Beam, functioning nearly identically to previous versions of the Grapple Beam. It allows Samus to swing across great distances with the use of special Grapple Points. This Grapple upgrade is obtained shortly after landing on Bryyo, after Samus fends off a group of Reptilicus. It is necessary to traverse various hazards and reach many expansions. Unlike every other appearance, Samus can (and must, at certain points) shoot while aboard a Grapple Swing, and she can also be stationary while using the Grapple Swing by grappling certain objects, such as SkyTown's Zipline system.
Ship Grapple Beam
- Main article: Ship Grapple Beam
The Ship Grapple Beam is used to pick up large objects. It is a ship upgrade that allows Samus's ship to carry objects at her command using the Command Visor. The Command Visor interface allows Samus to see whether or not her ship has an object and what object it is holding. This upgrade is important in assembling the Theronian Bomb to destroy Elysia's Leviathan's shield.
Grapple Voltage
- Main article: Grapple Voltage
Upon defeating Gandrayda on Pirate Homeworld, Samus grabs the Grapple Voltage upgrade that Gandrayda drops. This upgrade can be used to either funnel in or exert energy through a Grapple Beam "string." Both can destroy enemies, by either removing any energy they require to live or by overloading them. It can also be used on certain terminals that either require energy to power up or are energized and need to be shut down. As Samus removes energy from targets, her energy fills up while releasing energy causes it to go down. Notably, Samus's energy can be exerted far quicker than it can be drawn in.
Hyper Grapple
- Main article: Hyper Grapple
The Hyper Grapple functions as a stronger, Phazon-powered version of the Grapple Voltage. Samus uses the Phazon within her to power this powerful Grapple Beam. It allows Samus to exert and funnel Phazon from enemies and Phazon-based structures. This Hypermode addition is acquired after defeating the Phazon-infused behemoth, Omega Ridley in the Pirate Homeworld's Leviathan. The Hyper Grapple is necessary to advance to a portal between Pirate Homeworld and the Leviathan capable of opening wormholes to the planet Phaaze.
The Hyper Grapple becomes useful as Samus enters Phaaze. On Phaaze, Samus must keep the levels of Phazon in her body low; an easy way to accomplish this is by relieving her Phazon energy onto creatures using the Hyper Grapple. This is notably useful against the Phaaze-common Phaz-Ings and those that can be grappled.

Australia's first ever Medical Cannabis Industry Development Strategy has today been unveiled, with its aim being to move the emerging Victorian medicinal cannabis industry into an established sector.
The strategy sets the goal of Victoria supplying half of Australia's medicinal cannabis by 2028 and creating up to 500 jobs.
While visiting Monash Medical Centre today, Minister for Health Jill Hennessy and Minister for Agriculture Jaala Pulford also announced an expansion to Victoria's early access scheme. The imported medicinal cannabis product which has already been offered to 29 children with severe intractable epilepsy will now be expanded to 60 children.
The Victorian Government also plans to offer Victoria's locally produced product – when it is ready – to an additional 30 children.
Victoria's scheme has already helped children see a reduction in seizures and has significantly improved their quality of life. Victoria was the first state in Australia to legalise access to medicinal cannabis for those in exceptional circumstances in 2016.
The signing of a landmark MOU between Agriculture Victoria and Canadian company Canopy Growth Corporation will focus on best approaches to strain development, cultivation, manufacturing and education.
Further details in the Victorian Government Press Release and the Industry Development Plan: Developing a Medicinal Cannabis Industry in Victoria 2018-21.

One of our greatest assets is our workforce – our human capital. We have 29,000 employees around the world.
Our employees serve our customers and ensure we innovate and develop products and services in an increasingly digital and competitive world. Attracting and retaining talent is a challenge, and we need to have the right measures in place to help with this. This is why we appointed our Global Head of HR, Carla Mahieu, to the Management Board.
Our employees need to feel both engaged with the company and empowered to perform their jobs. We measure this with an annual survey, which, amongst other criteria, assesses employee enablement and engagement. Unfortunately, this year's results were disappointing.
Our employee engagement score decreased 8 points to 63, and our employee enablement score dropped 11 points to 64. We believe these declines were largely the result of uncertainty due to necessary cost reductions and restructuring to ensure our business is in the best shape for the future.
When restructuring, we try to keep compulsory redundancies to a minimum. We reassign staff within the company where possible and provide training, career advice, and access to external recruitment services for those leaving the company. While we lost some roles, we also made just under 3,300 new hires to ensure we have a diverse range of skills and employees.
Our employee engagement score is 63, down from 71 in 2015
Our employee enablement score was 64, down from 75 in 2015
The number of people employed by Aegon around the world
This year, we used a new global employee survey supplier: Culture Amp. We retained the methodology previously used to compare engagement and enablement scores. In future years, we will replace employee enablement with more relevant metrics to help us track the delivery of our strategy and our cultural transformation. We also revisited our leadership competencies so that we can model and accelerate behavioral change at every level.
Investing in our workforce
We paid our employees almost €1.5 billion in salaries and just over €800 million in other benefits. Our training spend was also up 6% to almost €15 million. This equates to over €600 per employee. We also offer other benefits such as part-time and flexible working, parental leave, health checks and paid volunteering time. We invest in a Technical Development Program, and in Aegon's Analytical Academy to develop, attract and retain key talent, and strengthen our expertise across functions and geographies.
Coming Out
In 2016, our employees took part in more lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) celebrations than ever before, including Edinburgh, Scotland; Amsterdam, the Netherlands; and St. Petersburg, Cedar Rapids, Little Rock, and Dallas in the US. This reaffirms our commitment to our diverse workplace, which was acknowledged by Workplace Pride's 2016 National Coming Out Day competition, in which Aegon was chosen as overall winner.
Transamerica made a huge leap in the Human Rights Campaign's Equality Index, from 20 to 90 on a scale of 100. This reflects our hard work in ensuring everyone is welcome at Aegon with our inclusive policies, beliefs, employee resource group and community engagement.
Ringing in the changes
By monitoring calls we can intervene if our communication is inadequate, incomplete or unclearZsófia Hontiné Sohajda, Customer Relationship Development Expert, Aegon Hungary
In Aegon Hungary, we're achieving simpler and clearer customer relations through multiple means, such as the use of VoiceAnalytics® software to detect positive and negative emotions on calls. Zsofia Hontine Sohajda, Customer Relationship Development Expert, and her team provide call center colleagues with evaluation and coaching. The initiative has reduced average call times by 19 seconds, and saved 263 hours of work per month.*
"By monitoring calls we can intervene if our communication is inadequate, incomplete or unclear," she says.
Zsofia and her team were nominated as 'most customer-centric' in the 2016 Global Aegon Awards. "If customers understand better, they trust us more. If they trust more, they remain loyal," she says.

Minnesota Marine Art Museum, 800 Riverview Drive, Winona
We were heading south for our annual fall apple-buying trip when I said: "Let's go a little farther to that marine art museum you like." Both the Percolator and my father had been there and told me I had to go, but I hadn't been near Winona lately, so 47 miles south of honeycrisp we turned off of legendary Highway 61.
The quaint, gray, cedar shake building clung to the edge of the river like a buoy. Numerous barges were moored out front like objects in a soon-to-be landscape painting. Overhead an eagle soared under directives of the tourism department. It seemed too idyllic to be true. Then we walked inside.
A lot of people like art. And a lot of people buy art. But when you own Fastenal, the nation's largest nuts and bolts dealership, you can buy really great art. That's what Bob Kierlin and his wife Mary Burrichter did in their spare time when they weren't putting pieces together in Winona. Eventually their collection outgrew their home and they opened this museum in 2006. The Minnesota Marine Art Museum borrows pieces from other collections and museums and hosts traveling exhibits too (Ansel Adams photos through Jan. 11.) But their permanent collection is what really makes this the gem it is.
When we entered the lobby I saw several galleries stretching off into the distance. My father, a former advertising art director, taught me how to draw in perspective when I was about 12 years old. I remember being awestruck at how the converging lines indicated distance and scale. From the lobby I could see from one exhibition space into the next then into another and another. The building was much larger inside than it looked.
A couple ship models and a washstand belonging to England's Admiral Nelson set the tone in the lobby, but the first painting I fell in love with was an 1884 scene of New York's harbor in moonlight. The detail, lighting, clouds, workers, riggings, smokestacks, flags, cobblestones, the bridge in the distance, the composition with the urban buildings jammed up on one side and the open seaside represented on the other, and the carved gilt frame! I was drawn right in and it wasn't even the type of painting I normally liked. The next room had several America's Cup paintings and the way the wind filled the sails literally took my breath away.
The museum's paintings are exhibited in several galleries. There are American and European artists from the 1600s through today featuring traditional marine art, modern and impressionist works, and an extensive collection of Hudson River School paintings. John Singer Sargent, Winslow Homer, Georgia O'Keefe, Marsden Hartley, Maurice Prendergast, Stuart Davis, Andrew Wyeth, Mondrian, Matisse, Picasso, Van Gogh . . . if you made a checklist of famous artists they'd all be there.
But what's so cool about this museum is the vision behind it: to collect art that includes a body of water in it. I thought it was all going to be paintings of old ships, but they're just paintings. Beautiful paintings. I looked at Perc in amazement and he said: "No visit to Minnesota is complete without visiting this place."
Along the way:
• Red Wing: Red Wing Shoes — store and museum (315 Main St.)
• Lake City: Chickadee Cottage Cafe (317 N. Lakeshore Dr.), Pepin Heights — open through December (1753 S. Highway 61)
• Kellogg: Lark Toys
• Winona: J. R. Watkins Museum & Store Watkins — (507) 457-3300 call for hours (150 Liberty St.)


text: Crystal clear and raising the bar to a whole new level. Most people will look at this picture and scratch their head 🤔. The @joinjohnwayne 82ft slider is getting a facelift for the upcoming #WindVoyagerTripleS. Ever since Hurricane Irene, the center gap had been scabbed back together and permanently installed, meaning no opportunity to take it out mid-event, effectively raising the bar on level of difficulty. Now that's all going to change. Joby Cook of #Jibstruction has been a busy beaver rebuilding this center section from scratch. New aluminum, new plexi, new HDPE sliding surface. Plus easy in, easy out. Start thinking of the tricks that are gonna be thrown between the peaks. This year…the gap's coming out. #JohnWayneCancerFoundation #BlocktheBlaze @windvoyager #theworldisnotready

I sewed some fabric strips, and ric-rac, and then backed it with some muslin, since burlap has lots of nice holes in it :)
It isn't perfect....but it adds a nice little interest to the couch. ☻
Over the years I have made lots of Christmas pillows. It is funny how my taste and styles change over the years. I still have my old pillows- the ones I made using primitive stitching and tea-dying....:) remember those? They are still cute in their own way....but... I think I like this look a little better this year :)
Hope you are enjoying the wonderful Christmas Season!! {love it!}

Venezuela's Oil Production Continues To Decline.
In 1998 Venezuela's crude production peaked at 3.5 mio bpd, (ironically the same year that Hugo Chavez came to power) since then and due primarily to economic mismanagement by Chavez's administration and that of his successor's Nicolas Maduro, combined with the resulting social and political upheaval, oil output declined sharply to reach 1.7 mio bpd at the end of last year, its lowest level since 1989. A further drop-off is expected this year especially after President Maduro recently appointed an army officer, Manuel Quevedo, as head of the national oil company (PVDSA), who in turn promptly sacked dozens of experienced officials in an 'anti-corruption' drive. Meanwhile as mentioned in some of our previous commentaries, an acute lack of hard currency (oil provides 95% of the country's export revenues) has meant that PVDSA's infrastructure and production facilities are now in a very poor state and this may eventually threaten its output altogether. A complete halt in Venezuelan production whether triggered by technical reasons or by the still very real chance of a general economic collapse, would likely have a sharp initial impact on crude prices, especially as the latest data confirms that global demand is continuing to rise and bloated stocks are beginning to fall despite increased US shale production. In other news the UAE's Energy Minister, Suhail al Mazrouei, said this morning that he expected the crude market to eventually achieve complete balance this year, and that the OPEC/NOPEC output reduction agreement would continue to be supported by a high level of compliance.
Trump Decision On Iran Approaches.
The US President is due to announce tomorrow whether or not his administration will again extend its waiver on nuclear related Iran sanctions. Despite calls by the EU, the UK and Russia for America to do so it's not completely clear yet whether or not Trump will indeed rubber stamp it, especially in light of his oft repeated criticism of the JCPOA accord, his decision last year not to certify Tehran's compliance with the deal, and the recent outbreak of public protests across Iran. Under current US law, the President has to review and extend this waiver every 4 months, a decision not to extend could then lead to a collapse of the 2015 agreement.
Protests Continue In Tunisia.
An outbreak of violent protests continued across Tunisia yesterday, and were an apparent response to a recent series of price hikes as the government began to implement planned austerity measures in an attempt to reduce the country's ballooning deficit. "People have to understand that the situation is extraordinary and their country is having difficulties, but we believe that 2018 will be the last difficult year for the Tunisians," the Prime Minister, Youssef Chahed, was quoted as saying, warning too that while his country's citizens had the right to demonstrate, acts of violence would not be tolerated. This current tense situation appears unlikely to calm down soon however, with unions, opposition activists and youth organizations reportedly planning more marches tomorrow and calling on the government to halt its austerity program. The IMF approved a US$2.9 bio loan for Tunisia back in 2016 but the government's delay in implementing the IMF's required reforms resulted in the 2nd tranche of the facility being withheld in February last year. Following a review in December 2017 the IMF said in a statement; "Building on their ambitious budget law for 2018, the Tunisian authorities have expressed their commitment to take decisive action. The main challenge for the months ahead is to make-up for the significant delays in lifting long-standing obstacles to growth and addressing large fiscal and external deficits."
Egypt To Hold Presidential Elections In March.
Egypt's electoral commission announced this week that the country's next Presidential poll will be held on March 26-28 this year. The incumbent Abdel Fattah el Sissi is expected to run for a second term and a majority of MPs have already urged him to do so, although he has not as yet officially confirmed his participation. Potential candidates have until the 29th of January to register.
Saudi Arabia's Regulator Amends Rules For QFIs.
Saudi Arabia's Capital Markets Authority announced yesterday that it has eased some of the requirements needed by foreign investors seeing to purchase local stocks. These changes included the lowering of the minimum threshold of assets under management for qualified foreign investors from US$1 bio to US$500 mio, and the removal of a previous requirement that the CMA must first review and approve each QFI qualification. "The goal of these enhancements to the QFI program is to streamline investor qualification and make it part of the account opening process rather than a separate approval process," the head of the CMA, Mohammed al Kuwaiz was quoted as saying via Bloomberg yesterday. These amendments will come into force from the 23rd of this month and are yet another preparatory step towards the much awaited IPO of Saudi Aramco. The Kingdom's stock market is the largest in the region and currently globally ranked 24th by market cap.
Nigerian Equities Have Bullish Start To The Year.
Nigeria's main stock index is up by 5.50% so far this year and ended yesterday's session at a 3-year high. This bullish sentiment which began last year is being fed by the firmer oil price, a recovering economy and expectations for lower domestic interest rates this year.
Emirates Airlines Eyes SUKUK Issuance.
According to a Blomberg article published yesterday Emirates Airlines is reportedly seeking to raise up to US$1 bio via an Islamic bond issuance which could take place during the first half of this year.
ACWA Power May Conduct An IPO.
A Reuters report yesterday quoted unnamed sources suggesting that Saudi Arabia's ACWA Power was planning to conduct an IPO this year. According to the article possible arrangers have already been approached and the firm could potentially be valued at as much as US$ 1 bio.
Inflation In Egypt Drops Sharply.
Urban CPI in Egypt fell sharply to 21.90% last month from 26% in November, while core inflation dropped to 19.86% y/y from a previous level of 25.54%. As we have mentioned previously this shift lower had been anticipated as the basing effects of the November 2016 currency devaluation fades away. It also raises the chances for an interest rate cut as early as this February.
Angolan Kwanza Devalued As CB Abandons Peg.
Following on from a recent decision by Angola to end its US$ peg regime, the central bank on Tuesday devalued the official Kwanza exchange rate by 11% against the Euro and conducted its first FX auction under its new 'target-band' system. The bank reportedly sold EUR 83.65 mio at an average rate of 221.26 after receiving bids from the local banks ranging between 217.00 to 231.00 according to data published by Bloomberg. The official rate for USD/AOA is now around 188.00 although this is still far below the unofficial 'kerb' rate which was last suggested to be trading near 400.00.
Moroccan Government Approves Investment Projects Worth US$3.5 Bio.
The Moroccan government this week approved 48 investment projects totaling US$3.5 bio according to a statement issued by the Prime Minister's office yesterday. The bulk of these projects are concentrated within the industrial sector, followed by desalination and transport.

The death has occurred of five-time Navan O'Mahonys SFC winning goalkeeper Frank Carberry following a short illness.
A talented underage player with De La Salle, Frank started his adult football playing days with Simonstown and lined out between the posts in the 1970 Junior B final which, ironically, they lost to Navan O'Mahonys.
He subsequently transferred to the Brews Hill club and won the first of his five senior medals in 1973. He added to his collection in 1979, '81, '85 and '87.
His club performances caught the attention of county selectors and he was a member of the Meath squad that captured NFL honours in 1975.
A popular taxi driver, 66-year-old Frank was also well-known in local political circles and served three stints as a Fianna Fail chairman of Navan Urban Council.
Sympathies are extended to his wife Jean, son Keith, daughters Louise and Chloe, sister Margaret, son-in-law Noel, grandchildren Adam, Conor and Ava, extended family and large circle of friends.
Funeral arrangements:
Reposing at the Fitzsimons Funeral Home, Navan on Wednesday afternoon from 4pm, with removal at 7.40pm to arrive in St. Mary's Church at 8pm. Funeral Mass on Thursday at 12 o'clock (noon), followed by burial in St. Mary's Cemetery.

We are looking today at the first Vineyard Core Value and perhaps the most important of the five; The Theology & Practice of the Kingdom of God. And, if you remember, we are going to see how when we say to someone the seven words, "Can I pray for you, right now?", how that reflects each one of these values.
Bert Waggoner says this about Vineyard and Kingdom Theology:
When the Vineyard talks about the kingdom, we are talking about the kingdom of God as a dynamic reality that is now present in the world, but that will not come to the fullness of expression on the earth until the second coming of Christ at the end of this age. - Bert Waggoner -
Kingdom Theology is a holistic biblical concept that goes beyond the individual and mere personal salvation.
Proposition: Kingdom Theology is God's sovereign rule breaking in over all Creation. It includes the active role of the Spirit and Word addressing poverty, the environment, social injustice, healing, and demonic power encounters. It acknowledges the tension of spiritual battle we live in, as well as our own personal salvation and spiritual transformation. It does not speak of a dualism between the physical world and spiritual world, but realizes that God's rule embraces all aspects of life; both spiritual and physical.
Question: What does it mean to have a Kingdom Theology?
That is a question that I cannot fully answer in a 30 minute talk, however, we can start the conversation today. In short, Waggoner continues:
The focus of the Vineyard has always been on the manifest presence of the kingdom in the Spirit revealing Christ and empowering believers to heal the sick, cast out demons, feed the poor and be instruments of God in social justice. Vineyard is informed by its theology of the kingdom, but it is much more than theology. It is the manifest presence of the kingdom in the person of the Holy Spirit who exalts Jesus among us by signs and wonders. - Bert Waggoner -
The Kingdom of God can be seen in the idea of 'The Already & Not Yet'. To illustrate that point we can look back to an illustration we have used before here at Six:Eight; the beach at Normandy in WWII. The allies established the beach head at Normandy, France, which many believe to be the move that won the war. The war was not over at that point however, and the day was dubbed 'D-Day'; the day the war was won. Yet, ultimate and final victory would not be established until 'V-Day'; the day of final victory. And that day remained in the future as the battle went on. Jesus' coming was for us D-Day, yet ultimate fulfillment and victory will be established upon his return; our V-Day. Therefore, the Christian life now is lived in a tension between the already and not yet.
This explains to us why all who are evangelized are not converted, all the sick who are prayed for are not healed, or why some are healed but still get sick and die. It explains our triumph in Christ, and our continued struggle in the flesh as well. If we break that tension, what we are left with is:
- Cessationism; God does not work miracles today
- Triumphalism of Perfectionism; God always works miracles if we have enough faith to believe him.
- Don Williams, PhD -
Paul writes: "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ will all be made alive. But each in his own turn: Christ, the first-fruits; then, the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God, the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet."
1 Corinthians 15:22-25
What we are looking for is Luke 4:18 Christianity in which the good news is preached to the poor, prisoners are set free, the blind receive their sight, and the oppressed are released.
We are walking away from the Platonic Dualism that has been so pervasive 'within the history of conservative evangelical churches, where there is a tendency towards selective obedience or dualistic ethics. While some parts of the church focus entirely on "spiritual" aspects of the Christian life, such as evangelism, conversion, personal sanctification, prayer and the spiritual disciplines, other parts of the church focus entirely on "social" aspects of the Christian life, such as compassion for the poor, community transformation, social justice and political advocacy. The former is often described pejoratively as "pietism" and the latter as "liberal" Christianity or the "social gospel." One can trace this dualism in the whole history of the church, and the evangelical church in particular.' (Derek Morphew, The Kingdom: Healing the Dualism of Personal and Social Ethics)
For example, a friend of mine attended a small church growing up that only focused on the spiritual aspects of life; evangelism, conversion, personal sanctification, prayer and the spiritual disciplines. This church had classes all the time on evangelism, but never anything was said about the poor, social injustices, or the available power of the Holy Spirit; it was pietistic. Yet when they went to a Mennonite school they found themselves only in classes addressing poverty and social injustice, but never a class on evangelism or personal spiritual growth. It was a liberal theology or the social gospel. Both had aspects of the Kingdom expressed in their theology, however they were both incomplete. However, we must clarify that this is not to say all Mennonites are liberals.
Jesus is in the middle where the holistic Kingdom of God is preached without a far leaning on one aspect over another. Like we said last week, one thing that excites me about the Vineyard is the desire for balance and completeness. We can see this dualism happening in various situations in the world. Derek Morphew, a Vineyard writer, theologian, and director of Vineyard Bible Institute, writes this account of Apartheid in South Africa:
'Those who lived through the apartheid era in South Africa will know the debilitating effects of such dualism with particular pain. Apartheid completely divided the witness of the church. The churches associated with the South African Council of Churches were at the forefront of public resistance to the system and perhaps partly out of desperation, almost succumbed to neo-Marxist ideology (social gospel/liberal theology). The evangelical, Pentecostal and charismatic churches mostly succumbed to the ideology of the apartheid state, refused to confront the system and withdrew into "spirituality," not that such a withdrawal can be truly spiritual at all (pietism). Eventually the Rustenberg Confession became a cathartic moment where the whole church, "left" and "right" repudiated the system, confessed their own sin, and committed themselves against the ideology and its socio-political agenda. Later The Evangelical Alliance of South Africa was one of many organizations that made confession to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission on their failure to make an adequate response to Apartheid. Those of us who lived through this time have a story to tell. The theology of the kingdom proved to be a wonderful source of sanity in this turbulent time.'
I think the Kingdom was also evident in the theology of non-violent protests of African Americans under the leadership of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as well. Preachers like Dr. King not only held to the ethic of a personal salvation, but also saw themselves as people that would fight, non-violently, against social injustices that were contrary to the Kingdom of God - their faith went beyond just a personal faith ethic. Neither was his faith defined by that 'one social issue', which would have translated to a mere social gospel. However, neither did he retreat into a false spirituality, and just hope for the future Kingdom to be established without any realization of it now.
In his famous letter from the Birmingham Jail, Dr. King addresses his detractors that want to guard the status quo and urged him to 'wait'. They questioned why he had to act, why he couldn't just pastor people and 'let God work it out' in his time. Yet, Dr. King was driven by a Kingdom Theology that urged him to do something about an injustice now; he was following God's heart.
He said, "freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. 'Wait' almost always meant 'Never'... 'justice too long delayed is justice denied'" (Dr Matin Luther King Jr., Why We Can't Wait p91). He states also that the greater stumbling block to the African American at the time was not the KKK member, but 'the white moderate who is more devoted to 'order' than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice...who constantly tells the African American to wait for a more convenient time. Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.' (p97)
He continues to say, "time itself is neutral; it can be used either destructively or constructively. More and more I feel that the people of ill will have used time much more effectively than have the people of good will. We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. Human progress never rolls in on wheels of inevitability; it comes through the tireless efforts of men willing to be coworkers with God, and without this hard work, time itself becomes an ally of the forces of social stagnation. We must use time creatively, in the knowledge that the time is always ripe to do right." (p99)
In other words, the time is always ripe to do Kingdom! 'The kingdom of God is not simply about having "Jesus in your heart" or having his Lordship "within you", a popular definition based on Luke 17:21. Neither is the kingdom of God merely about the eternal rule of God "up there" in heaven where he is enthroned. The kingdom is an event. It is about God "coming" in the eschatological moment when the powers of the coming age break into the present, in Jesus, in Pentecost and in the history of missions, finally to be manifest when we arrive at the "end of the end." Jesus is the personified focus of this kingdom event. He comes announcing the kingdom and demonstrating the kingdom and then enacts the kingdom through his death, resurrection and ascension.' (Derek Morphew, The Kingdom: Healing the Dualism of Personal and Social Ethics)
Within Kingdom Theology the duality, or the separation, of personal and social ethics is not possible; neither is the separation of physical and spiritual. When John the Baptist sent his delegation wondering if Jesus was 'the one' Jesus reply was to evoke the language of Isaiah.

Senator Rand Paul posted the following exchange on his official YouTube channel. I like a lot of what Rand has been saying lately and while he's certainly not as principled as his father, it's good to have a sane voice in the U.S. Senate on these matters. For example last week Rand said No, President Trump, Torture Does Not Work. I want to make a quick important point here regarding the independent media and objectivity. I will continue to point out the good and bad aspects of both Rand Paul and Trump. For example even though I have an entire website devoted to Rand Paul's disgustingly weak fealty to Isreal and Netanyahu, [RandPaulZionist.com], it's ok to still point out some of the very good things he does. The same with President Trump. There are many legitimate and valid criticisms that those on the right can point out about Trump. We can support him when he does good and try to keep him on track when he goes astray. Stick to the underlying principles of liberty, the free market and non-interventionism, and please do not get caught up in the hero-worship of any of these politicians like some mesmerized 7th-grade schoolgirl. This 'cult of personality' we have been seeing is just so ridiculous and weak. Thanks - now on to Rand's great exchange with globalist Nikki Haley. You can leave your comments below.
"I will go one step further in that many say, 'well we should have the advice of Congress, or we ought to go down there occasionally and pat 'em on the back and talk to 'em.' No, No. The rules are pretty specific. We don't go to war really unless Congress votes on war... No U.S. solider should ever fight under any international banner without a vote from Congress and I can't state that strong enough. Because that is a check. That is a check and a balance to try and prevent unnecessary war," Rand Paul says.
Published on Jan 18, 2017
Senator Rand Paul questions Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina about her thoughts on allowing the US to go to war without the approval from the US Congress. Haley never comes around to agreeing that there needs to be a vote from congress before a war is initiated.
