She picked up the food, and the single steak bag. Her hands began to tremble. Her breathing became short. She slowly made her way to the door, careful not to make a sound. Putting her ear to the wood, she couldn't hear it. Don't get cocky, Eve.
Slowly, she turned the knob, then yanked the door open. The animal screamed, a high pitched sound that made the skin on her back ache. She threw the single steak bag down the hall and watched the hungry cat chase after it. This was it, she ran the other direction, she saw the pole, then the stairs. She only hesitated for an instant, then heard the cat coming for her. She screamed, "The pole, Woman!"
Unsure how she'd do it, she was out of time. No more time to make a choice. She threw her arms and legs around the shiny rod and let herself slip down to the main floor of the building. Once on her feet, she turned toward the stairway. She couldn't see her enemy, but could hear it. She pulled another steak out of the bag and threw it at the bottom of the stairs.
Eve had planned to lock the poor creature in the Engine House, but could now see that the door was broken, leaving the cat an escape hatch. She had no choice, but to run. She still had four steaks.
Then it occurred to her. The cat can smell the steaks. So I'm actually leading it to me. Damn! She had a minute or less before it devoured the second steak. She took off running in the opposite direction than she wanted to go. After two blocks, she saw a way out. She had brought the crowbar, it was stuffed down the back of her pants. She pulled it out and swung as hard as she could against a store window, turning quickly to miss the shattering glass. Looking toward the Engine House, she saw the feline coming toward her. Saliva was dripping from its jowls. His magnificent eyes caught the light from the street lamps. The intensity was disturbing. "So you think I'm your next steak, eh little kitty? Well, I hate to disappoint you, but here's your runner-up." She took one steak out of the bag and heaved it through the broken jags of the glass. Then a second one, but threw it at the opposite wall. She finished throwing the other two with little time to spare.
Eve ran to the end of the block and turned up the street. She kept running in the direction of the subway stairs. "My God!" She put her head back and laughed with joy, the sign pointed to the left, the sign that said SUBWAY ENTRANCE.

The Netball season has been a busy and exciting one having played a total of 7 league matches and 8 festivals. Our girls have represented Brescia House School proudly achieving excellent results across the board.
Well done to all our teams and thank you to the coaches for all their hard work. We would like to thank Sarah Buchanan on being such a wonderful captain for the 2018 netball season.
On Wednesday 20th June the championship netball challenge was held at Kingsmead College. The winning team in each age group of each pool played against each other to determine the overall champion. Our 2nd netball team was undefeated in the B Pool this season and as a result played in this challenge. In an exciting 1st match versus Heron Bridge they won and proceeded to the semi-finals where they faced Leeuwenhof Akademie, top in the A pool.
In a nail biting, lip quivering, knee shaking, riveting match our girls led for most of the match and then tied at the end. They then played extra time where they played "their socks off" and unfortunately lost by 1 goal in the last 30 seconds. We are so very proud of these girls for all their hard work and commitment throughout the season. A big thank you too to their coach Ms T Cook. Well done!

The Exe Bacatá 95 Hotel is placed in El Chicó district, one of the most distinguished areas in Bogotá. It is located in the middle of the commercial area of the city, an area surrounded by international food restaurants, cafés and shopping centers.
The building, property of BD Promotores Colombia, possesses a contemporary and functional style. Moreover, it has the last technology devices and innovations implemented. Its eight floors contain cafeteria service, an air-conditioned swimming pool, gymnasium, a business center and parking.
The culture of the Kogui, a native pre-Columbian village, inspired the architects team of Exe Bacatá 95 Bogotá Hotel to develop the project design. The apology for the Mother Nature, so characteristic of this native village, was decisive to design a ventilated façade multiformat with fastened joint and a design inspired in a slate particular from the region.
The façade was built with ceramic materials from Keraben Group, in particular the collection Pizarra of Metropol, all black coloured. This collection is capable to give dynamism and style to the building due to the combination of large and lengthened formats.
The origin of this collection is the reproduction of the natural slate, with a noticeable relief. Besides, thanks to the porcelanic materials properties, it emerges as a perfect choice in this kind of projects.
The Exe Bacatá 95 indoors style is all about the world view of the Kogui, the inhabitants of Sierra Nevada de Santa María. In Kogui's culture, all exists in a calm, peaceful and spiritual atmosphere. The design of the hotel breathes this harmony and it exposes the faint textures evocated from the mountains and the classic tones of these lands: crema, chocolate, café.
«Spaces communicate. One has only to enter into them in order to live sensations. At BD, we design, build and rehabilitate environments capable of creating a home. When one imagines a house, one can quickly recognise it.»

Of the more than 600,000 known asteroids in our Solar System, almost 10 000 are known as Near-Earth Objects (NEOs). These are asteroids or comets whose orbits bring them close to Earth's, and which could potentially collide with us at some point in the future. As such, monitoring these objects is a vital part of NASA's ongoing efforts in space. One such mission is NASA's Near-Earth Object Wide-field Survey Explorer (NEOWISE), which has been active since December 2013.
And now, after two years of study, the information gathered by the mission is being released to the public. This included, most recently, NEOWISE's second year of survey data, which accounted for 72 previously unknown objects that orbit near to our planet. Of these, eight were classified as potentially hazardous asteroids (PHAs), based on their size and how closely their orbits approach Earth.
Originally launched back in 2009 as the Wide-field Survey Explorer (WISE), the spacecraft relied on its infrared telescope to look for previously undetected star clusters and main belt asteroids. In February of 2011, the mission ended and the spacecraft was put into hibernation. As of December 2013, it was reactivated for the purpose of surveying Near-Earth Objects (i.e. comets and asteroids) for the remainder of its service life.

At St. Teresa's, our children's excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena is recognised and developed from the moment they enter our school nursery, and this innate sense of curiosity is fostered throughout their remaining years in our school family.
Our science curriculum aims to ensure that all pupils:
- develop scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics
- develop understanding of the nature, processes and methods of science through different types of science enquiries that help them to answer scientific questions about the world around them
- are equipped with the scientific knowledge required to understand the uses and implications of science, today and for the future.
The National Curriculum programmes of study describe a sequence of scientific knowledge and concepts to be taught within suggested year groups. However, we are only required to teach the relevant statutory content by the end of the key stage. Within each key stage, we have the flexibility to introduce content earlier or later than suggested in the programmes of study.
In Year 5 and Year 6 at St. Teresa's, we teach the scientific knowledge and concepts that are suggested to be covered in each year group within upper Key Stage 2.
In Year 1 and Year 2, and Year 3 and Year 4 – due to the mixed age classes – we have adopted a two-year rotation cycle so that we can ensure full coverage of the statutory content for both Key Stage 1 and lower Key Stage 2.
'Working scientifically' refers to the nature, processes and methods of science. According to the National Curriculum, 'working scientifically' should be embedded within the content of biology, chemistry and physics and should not be taught as a separate strand.
At St. Teresa's we recognise five types of scientific enquiry as being integral to our children's progression of 'working scientifically' skills:
- observing over time
- pattern seeking
- identifying, classifying and grouping
- comparative and fair testing
- researching using secondary sources.
This important strand of science is made explicit in all teachers' planning and is assessed separately to children's scientific knowledge.

Since we gave our friend Todd Parsons a vacation of sorts, while we had our series based on our first trip to San Jose, Costa Rica, we get blessed by him two Saturdays in a row. As usual, Todd has some great meditations to carry us a little closer to our Lord. And, as usual, Todd makes us think. But definitely spiritual thoughts.
There's a standard greater than our own. Greater than our own imaginations. When we hear "wisdom" from others, we need to be careful that we don't take in the world's wisdom, careful we're not fed by Satan. Indeed, when we teach others, we need to be sure we're not giving them a spiritual banquet straight from the world, the flesh, and the devil. That's the thought Todd has gleaned from today's journey into the Word. Let's travel with him.
Proverbs 24:5 A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increases strength.
James 3:15,17,18 ...This wisdom descends not from above, but is first earthly, sensual, devilish... But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness if sown in peace of them that make peace.
If a wise man is strong according to the scriptures and the scriptures also indicate the difference between wisdom that is from above and wisdom that is from below, then I think it safe to say that one of the two wisdom's is the only one that gives strength and the other weakens a man...
1 Corinthians 3:9,10 Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love Him. But God has revealed them unto us by His Spirit: For the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God.
1 John 3:20-21 For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. Beloved if our heart condemns us not, then we have CONFIDENCE toward God.
CONFIDENCE toward God! How great is that in a world that is shrinking back from the idea of God, even denying the existence of God, or even those trying desperately to live up to some standards placed on them to be pleasing to God by those who don't know God themselves. Can man truly have a CONFIDENCE toward God, knowing his identity before God? YES! When a man receives the love that God has toward man that Calvary's Cross displayed for us; that love from God does something marvelous in a man's heart by God's Spirit. God's love, by God's Spirit regenerates a genuine love in man back towards God and a reciprocation of this Great Love is set in motion... Strength unseen, strength unheard, and strength that has not entered into the heart of man outside of this wisdom and knowledge that is from above, is a STRONG CONSOLATION, (Hebrews 6:18), from God that is our "CONFIDENCE TOWARDS GOD!!!"
Of So Great Love, we are, tjp

Scooby and the gang head to Denmark for Velma's old childhood friend Chester Rolins (Greg Cipes), only to get involved with solving the mystery of the Ghost of Grendel (Tony Todd), his vengeful Mother (Viki Lewis), and a Firey Dragon (Frank Welker). will they solve the mystery before some when gets badly hurt?!

Chester tells Velma about the company Blizzard and this gives Fred an idea of the mystery! that night Fred and the gang visit the Festivities, Scooby saw a Racoon snooping in the Mystery Machine, and he chased the Racoon into the woods, and then he heads for a tree in the process and finds Grendel's Footprint and Scooby ran right into Pierce and draged him to see the foot print, the gang followed him! Fred sees the footprint and notices it that no ordinary person would actually do a print like this but a hammer clobber!
later that night again Scooby was eating some upside down cake, Shaggy wanted some and started eating from the bottom, but them instead of the cake they ate the whoopy cushion which was chewy to them! that made some farting noise while they were chewing on them, both Scooby and Shaggy were embarassed! That night as Fred is about to tell Daphne how much he needs her untill, the light goes out in the mead hall, Grendel then comes and tramples the place, and then chases Scooby and Shaggy into the woods! Then when Grendel leaves and chases Shaggy and Scooby, Velma notices the Crocodile+Gator Skin that was left by Grendel! Shaggy ran into a tree as he ran and was saying "I know where I am, I know I Am!", then starts running again until they fell into the lake!
Scooby grabs Shaggy out of the water and Shaggy was like hugging Scooby and sobbing!, meanwhile back at the mead hall, Velma studies the gator skin, and jumps to a conclusion that Grendel is a fake, then the police officer George Ramsey grabs the evidence and gets a good look, and tells Velma that it's probably from the museum of natural resources! Chester feels enraged to see the festival ruined again by Grendel, Fred then says to Chester that the Crocodile Skin was stolen from the museum, Ramsey states that this "Arsonist" will pay for breaking a beautiful festival. Then Daphne a net found from Blizzard interprise suggesting that Blizzard was trying to catch the beast. Then Daphne suggests that the gang goes undercover!

Rich Roll describes it as a film "like Blackfish meets An inconvenient Truth".
The film itself is one of the many awesome ones out there that is making people see the truth, and people are going vegan and transitioning to veganism after watching it. Recently the directors have teamed up with none other than Leonardo DiCaprio, who has joined as a co-producer! This partnership could have been part of the reason that a second edit of Cowspiracy will now be available on Netflix across the world!
Now more people can see whats really going on. So if you have Netflix, watch it and get others too as well.

Bear with me, dear readers – this one is a bit LOOONG.
Invitations are obviously a huge part of the wedding planning process, and a big part of the wedding itself, for most people. When it came time to figure out what to do for our own invites, I had read enough bridal magazines, trolled enough wedding blogs, and received enough wedding invitations to have an idea of what I did and did not want. I wanted a definite DIY component to our invites, but I wasn't sure how much I'd want to take on. I also wanted the invites to reflect our style and color scheme, and I loved the idea of the wedding invitations themselves tying into our reception venue, something you see more and more on the ol' wedding blogs. We could go with some quirky, like hankie invites, or even do an evite thing – but we decided we are paper people. Or rather, I decided I wanted to be paper-oriented, mostly so I could torture myself with as much DIY as possible, pick out vintage stamps, and scrapbook the rsvp's. Thus the hunt began for the perfect invites.
Here were our requirements – our invites had to be: pretty, fun but a little formal, feature attractive fonts, appeal to the rustic fabulousness of The Barns, and maybe come in navy or have navy elements. Oh, and it had to fit in the budget, which was fairly loose, but I wanted to keep it as small as possible, so basically any fancy paper companies, engraving, professional calligraphy, etc, was out of the question. Could I have the pretty-fun-whimsical-rustic-elegant invites I wanted on a budget?
I decided to start at the beginning – I'd take a Paper Source wedding invitation class to see if I had the power to DIY our whole wedding invitation suite. I had a blast doing this – it was a great decision. I learned about all of the Paper Source paper products, and I learned how to emboss! I also learned that an entirely DIY suite was not for me. The things I learned during this class would come in VERY handy later though, so the workshop was worth every penny of the $15 I spent.
Next, I aggressively trolled wedding blogs for a "designed by someone else, printed by you" option. I decided I wanted to try and find STD's, invites, and RSVP cards that were pre-designed. Any other additions to the invite suite (menu cards, maps, etc) I decided to make myself. I'd also worry about the envelopes, pocketfolds, printing, and mailing. Through one blog or another, I discovered Printable Press. They had the PERFECT invitation suite called "All Lit Up"
It had everything we were looking for – the invite was navy, the fonts were fantastic, it was a "print your own" company, the design embraced the rustic, whimsical elements of the Barns, and though we hadn't decided to add string lights to our decor just yet, in the end, the invite proved to be the perfect match for our wedding by featuring the string lights we'd add later. Almost as if it was all planned 🙂
Working with Kimi at Printable Press was sooooooooo easyyyyyy. I'm pretty easygoing (though I heard later, after the wedding, "we thought you were going to be a bridezilla and you totally weren't! It was great!" Um, thanks?!) and I'm hoping I was easy to work with! After sending Kimi the customizations she needed, she sent the proofs. I showed them to husbando, we decided we loved them, and that was that. The design charge was $190. Can you even believe it? The whole process took just a few weeks (I ordered these in December 2009, 10 months before our wedding, so we were working with plenty of time), from initial contact to pdf proofs.
Next came the "where to print?" question. Since we chose the All Lit Up design, we knew we wouldn't be printing these color-heavy invites on our own printers. At the time, Printable Press recommended CatPrint (they have new recs on their, site, check them out if ordering from them!) I liked CatPrint's options (mostly their off-white options for the RSVP cards) and prices ($26 for our Save the Dates, and about $90 for the invites and RSVP cards). They were great to work with. I also visited Cards and Pockets because I loved the idea of pocketfolds. That site allowed me to order a few pockets in different sizes and papers so I could experiment.
Once everything arrived, I pulled together the Save the Dates. Next, I focused on the invites. The pocket folds from Cards and Pockets did not work. I didn't like the set-up and the colors were wrong. They cost less that Paper Source pockets did, but a quick visit to my local Paper Source (with printed invites and RSVP's in hand) showed that it was worth spending a few cents extra per pocketfold to get what I wanted, which was the A7 folder invitation enclosure in ecowhite. Ecowhite was just "off-white" enough for my taste, plus cheaper than the luxe option in cream.
Next up, I decided I did want to bring in a third color for the invitations. I was thinking gold, but again, a visit to the Paper Source to look at my options changed my mind completely. A7 Notecards in Copper Shimmer were the right size and color for the background.
Once the invitations were printed and the pocketfolds and background pieces were chosen, most of the hard decision work was finished. Next up, manual labor time!

The hyena feeder of Harar, Ethiopia
Hyenas are feared and despised in Ethiopia...blamed for killing livestock and, reportedly, drunken individuals who sleep on the streets at night.
But in the walled city of Harar, in the east, there is a symbiotic relationship with hyenas. Some mosques prepare porridge for the animals as part of an annual festival If the main hyena leader doesnt eat, its a sign of bad times to come. If he/she eats that means good times are ahead.
In the last 20-30 years, some men have become known through tv coverage for feeding hyenas meat by the city walls. Its become a tourist attraction.
Yusuf is one of the 2 main hyena feeders. He calls them by name and seems to know their habits pretty well.
I met an Australian researcher when I came to take a look...he is written his phd thesis on Harar's relationship with hyenas.
Pretty bizarre to see these predatory animals so close up.

I am definitely in part three now, one month later during which my sole focus has been this ridiculous obsession with digging trenches, pouring pre-mixed concrete down cinder blocks stacked on each other after pounding three-foot sticks of rebar into the ground. I have finally finished the sub-structure, of which a friend at work suggested might actually be a mausoleum in disguise to which I replied that in fact it was, and that in a hundred years a future generation of as of yet unborn Melarvie's might walk down a musty corridor past a row of tombs, like Bran Stark from the Game of Thrones in the crypts at Winterfell; and in reaching the last one, in the deepest darkest corner where the air lays still and heavy on the underground might be told, "Look, here lies great, great, great, great Grandpa Melarvie."
I just read about a giant cave found in Chongquing province of China that is so massive that it has its own weather system, including clouds; and I keep hoping that I might stumble on some similar glorious find, at least something as big as the cave at Horseshoe Bay, and with each rock I pull up I wait expectantly for a draft of cool air against my face; but all I find are yet deeper rocks increasingly more difficult to unearth. I'm obviously not digging deep enough. Maybe if I persist long enough, I might actually find my way to the Chongquing province.
Truth is, I'm already missing the flowers, and the memories of the weeds and mulching and cutting down and watering are rapidly fading in significance the longer I work on this sterile exercise of straight edges, stone and mortar. The weeds weren't so bad. Hmmm. Oh well, too late now–the die is cast, the horse has left the barn, the bridge is burned, the Rubicon has been crossed.
Like Dante, I too have passed through a gate, that if not hell should at least share the same inscription overhead: "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate".
"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."

Windows Store App Development Snack: App Age Restriction & Developers
Windows Store App Development Snack: App Age Restriction & Developers
Join the DZone community and get the full member experience.Join For Free
I often think of age restrictions in, this is for adults only & this is for everyone however Microsoft has a far more complex view of the world:
- 3+: Suitable for young child (three or above)
- 7+: Suitable for ages 7 and older
- 12+: Suitable for ages 12 and older
- 16+: Suitable for ages 16 and older
- Finally Adult Only apps
Adult only apps are not allowed in the store – so we are only going to focus on the four other categories. The obvious aspect of ratings is content is a major influencer so for example at 3+ the content guideline is
These applications are considered appropriate for young children. There may be minimal comic violence in non-realistic, cartoon form. Characters should not resemble or be associated with real life characters. There should be no content that could be frightening, and there should be no nudity or references to sexual or criminal activity
While at 16+:
Apps with this age rating can depict realistic violence with minimal blood, and they can depict sexual activity. They can also contain drug or tobacco use and criminal activities, and more profanity than would be allowed in a 12+ app
None of that should be any surprise to any developer and just a bit of reading when you submit should keep you out of trouble.
Platform Access
The ratings have a second role, controlling what can & can't be used! It is not until you reach 12+ can you access to online services, of personal information, or enable features such as microphones or webcams. This can get you into a bit of trouble when submitting.
My experience is that obvious online access is heavily controlled but I do have apps on 3+ that do access services (such as to load pictures). There is also nothing stopping your app on a technical level with these so it is something of an honour system which is maintained by the content review phase of submitting.

(CNSNews.com) – Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who leads the Roman Catholic Archdiocese for the Military Services, wrote a letter to be read at all Sunday Masses for U.S. military personnel around the world that said that a regulation issued by the Obama Administration under the new federal health care law was "a blow" to a freedom that U.S. troops have not only fought to defend but for which some have recently died in battle.
"It is a blow to a freedom that you have fought to defend and for which you have seen your buddies fall in battle," the archbishop wrote.
Another line in his letter said: "We cannot—we will not—comply with this unjust law."
With luck the troops will mutiny;) h/t WZ

In our experience, a well drafted court character reference can have an impact upon the sentence that is imposed by the court. We believe that a court character reference must paint a picture of your character. If your character references don't help you stand out from the other offenders in court then you will be dealt with just like all the other cases. Most court character references make statements like this "James Brown is hardworking, energetic and generous with his time and money". We believe that these references have very little impact upon the sentence imposed by the Court. As some magistrates comment "I have never read a bad character reference." But by the use of examples, illustrations and stories a referee can bring your character to life.

Armstrong Legal has a team of criminal lawyers who specialise in representing clients charged with criminal offences. These lawyers appear daily before the Local Courts in New South Wales. The team includes two accredited specialists in Criminal Law.
What this means for you:
It is common practise where an offender has a number of drug related offences on their record for a magistrate to question the offender as to whether they have a drug problem. If you do have a drug problem it is wise to have drug counselling to help you abstain from drugs. Under the Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act the court must take into account your attempts to rehabilitate yourself when imposing a sentence.
MERIT (Magistrates Early Referral Into Treatment) is a program based in Local Courts in New South Wales that provides the opportunity for adult offenders who have drug problems to work, on a voluntary basis, towards rehabilitation as part of the bail process. MERIT Teams, based in NSW Health conduct the assessment of participants. Based on the assessment, you may be accepted into MERIT to receive targeted drug treatment. The MERIT treatment program will be developed to match your individual needs. The Court will make your involvement in MERIT a condition of bail.
Participants are closely case-managed by the MERIT Team throughout the program and the Magistrate receives regular reports on your progress. The final hearing and sentence generally coincide with the completion of the MERIT program. Magistrates are then able to consider your progress in treatment as part of final sentencing. It is our experience that participants who commit to the program receive a marked discount in the penalty imposed.
Download a fact sheet about MERIT written by the Australian Government
Completing a Traffic Offender Program demonstrates to the magistrate that you are serious about improving your driving behaviour. The Traffic Offenders Program is designed to increase peoples understanding of their social obligations, particularly where they relate to traffic laws. When sentencing a drug driving offender, a magistrate may take into account any changes of attitude displayed since you attended the traffic offender program The course is for normally 7 or 8 weeks, one day per week for approximately 2 hours.
Download a fact sheet on when & where the programs are run throughout NSW
Completing a course or counselling sessions in anger management demonstrates to the court that you are serious about ensuring that you will not commit similar offences in the future. Upon completion of the course you should obtain a report from the organisation providing the counselling/training. We also recommend that you write a letter to the court indicating what you have learnt from the counselling/training.
It is common practice where an offender has a number of alcohol related offences on their record for a Magistrate to question the offender as to whether they have an alcohol problem. If you do have an alcohol problem it is wise to have alcohol counselling to help you abstain from alcohol or reduce your alcohol intake. Under the Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act the court must take into account your attempts to rehabilitate yourself when imposing a sentence.
If you are pleading guilty to an assault offence and the victim of the assault (or the police on their behalf) is seeking an apprehended domestic violence order, the court is duty bound to make an order except in some limited circumstances. So it is in your interests to agree to the making of an order that the court is likely to make anyway. It demonstrates to the court that you are keen to ensure that the victim is adequately protected in the future.
If you suspect that you may be under investigation, or if you have been charged with an offence, it is vital to get competent legal advice as early as possible. Our lawyers are highly specialised in criminal law and will be able to guide you through the process while dealing with the various authorities related to your matter.

We spent the weekend of July 4th in Pinetop with Chase's parents and aunt and uncle and it was great! First of all the ride up there kinda sucked, Link was so over the car seat and we were all just wanting to be out of the heat. Once we got out of the canyon we stopped to stretch our legs and the giant clouds and cool summer breeze made it all worth it. We made it up there and enjoyed walks outside and time with cousins Link's age. He loved playing with his cousins, they were so cute together! I love that he has friends to play with :) We relaxed and watched Star Wars, a tradition, and ate junk food. I watched the BR alumni volleyball tournament and I need to get my butt back on the court! I miss it so much. All in all it was a pretty good weekend.

From the time I was old enough to understand and grasp the concept of men, I was raised up in the ways of courting. Now a lot of people I know have heard me go on and on about what it is and how one would pursue it in a Godly manner. It's not about how many times you go out (chaperone included), its not about what the person looks like, it's about their willingness and their faith to trust God to take them down the path of marriage. Not many see courtship the greatest path to start a relationship up with someone, but it's the safest and most Godly way to do so (in my opinion that is). My parents are involved with whoever I start to like and they keep tabs on that person through me whether it's text messages, phone calls etc. Its not suppose to threaten the young man, just to give him the idea that my parents are there and are making sure that my heart is protected beyond all measures.
As many of may know, my father can come off intimidating and yes, that is intentional. But as I say again, its not meant to scare the men who peak an interest away, its a protection tactic. My father is very protective of the family, but when it comes to a young man entering the picture, he becomes very vigilant of what is going on between the oldest girl child and a young man he doesn't know. Now you're probably asking if there is a guy in my life right now and who is he? Unfortunately I will not disclose that information, but what I can say is I am praying about it and seeing where God leads me. Also I'll be praying for the young man who shall not be named everyday.
I apologize for the lack of posting, but I had to focus on what needed to be done around the house and I had to apply for college as well. I shall be posting more of my aesthetic post soon and keep everyone updated with my life.
For His Glory,

Tips When Planning To Open A Workshop Business
One of the best businesses that will never die are good workshops. A workshop is a kind of business that uses different machines and tools to manufacturer or repair various products. We won't be where we are today without workshops.
One reason why you should open up your very own workshop business is because you will never run out of customers. If you think about, our whole economy relies heavily on workshop businesses. A lot of people and even other businesses need your products and services. You will never regret opening your own workshop business because the return of investment is very high.
In this article, allow me to share with you some tips that will guarantee your success when opening a workshop business.
1. Invest on high quality equipment.
When shopping for your workshop's tools and machines, do not make the mistake of sacrificing quality over cost. You cannot provide quality products and services to your customers if you invest on cheap and faulty equipment. When purchasing your tools, see to it that they are durable and from a trusted brand.
If you want to save money when buying tools and machines for your workshop, it is best to shop online. Since most of us already do our shopping online, it is no longer surprising to know that the internet is full of reliable merchants and manufacturers. They already have their own websites that you visit anytime.
If you want to save money, always check of there are promos or discounts being offered by the merchant. This is the best way to save money when shopping for tools and machines.
2. Hire other professionals.
In order for your workshop business to be successful, you need to recruit skilled and knowledgeable people. When recruiting people, always do your research on them. Do not hire inexperienced people, make sure that they are skilled and knowledgeable in operating simple and complex machines. To make sure they are qualified to work for you, do not hesitate to ask for any certificates or credentials.
3. Put your business on the internet.
In order to compete with big workshop companies and to make sure your own business will be a success, you need to invest on your own website. If your business have a website of it's own, you can easily advertise your services and products to the public. In addition to this, you will also gain new customers everyday.
When investing on your own website, make sure that you hire the services of a professional web design company. Creating and designing websites is their bread and butter and they will always provide quality service.

This piece was created as test of what I could do in After Effects, as well as a way to display my current portfolio site at the time.
I initially took a screen shot of my site, then copied and flipped it upside down to create a reflection of it. Next, I imported the image into After Effects, and set it as a 3D plane. I then animated my camera around it to get the overall motion of the video. The final part was adding in extra elements such as lighting and shadows.View the video!

So I've started a new blog format to be more informative for the indie authors seeking guidance and information.While I have only been doing this for a short time (about a year) I have learned some very basic but invaluable information. While I don't claim to know everything, I want to help Noobies avoid some critical pitfalls that I have made in my search for validation as an author.
First thing first. Don't assume that we can all be Amanda Hocking's. Independent publishing is not the fast track to quick cash. Most of us will slave over our keyboards for ten plus hours a day for weeks to months only to have our book never sell a single copy. It is grueling and frustrating and many times has made me want to wail in devastation.
Second, despite your failures don't give up. As a budding author you will make mistakes, many mistakes. Learn from them. Don't take a critical review as a personal attack. Embrace them. It's taking the criticism of others to heart and working on those aspects of our writing that will help you on your road to success. While we can not please everyone, reviews about bad grammar, lack of editing, and poor cover design should be listened to.
Third, don't assume that just because you have an education in English studies or you gave your book to a friend to look over your book is free of errors. Find an editor and use them! I had several books critiqued telling me that they would have been great except for lack of editing. As a recent reviewer so blatantly put it "spell check is not editing." (Thanks Mel) I will have links posted shortly for a phenomenal editor that is well with in the budget a new author can afford.
Fourth, although you may be proud of your cover (I was) your attempts at Photoshop greatness will probably hinder more than help. Remember when we were kids at Christmas? Our eyes were always drawn to the most beautifully wrapped or biggest package? Your cover is your wrapping paper.That tiny little image is what drives people to look at your book in the first place. Don't short change yourself the sales that you might miss if going with a non pro image. Again I have a cover designer that does beautiful work at a price you can afford.
While there are many other things that can be discussed as pitfalls a new author can and will make, those are the biggest ones that come to mind. Stay true to the reason you began writing in the first place, what ever it may be. You will find your place amongst the ever growing population of independent eBook authors, but it's going to be a bumpy ride.

Confidence: 8 = Very Good, co-ordinate very likely to be correct.
|ArchAtlas Journal: visual essay and site visualisation links

Toby Wilkinson, University of Sheffield
Pathways and highways: routes in Bronze Age Eurasia (Oct. 2009)
This visual essay explores the possibility of delineating two different types of routes, "pathways" and "highways", and the extent to which archaeology can help to analyse them. The technologies of cost-raster GIS analysis are introduced and applied to two case studies in Eastern Anatolia and Western Central Asia, c. 3000-1000 BC. It is to be hoped that the highlighted patterns, combined with a knowledge of contemporary material transformations, will provide insights into the processes of socio-economic change across these reconstructed networks of interaction.

Best practice is to consider the mortgage, much as a normal institutional lender would. You would want to closely examine the following areas initially:
· Quality of the real estate (collateral)
· Stability of the cash flow (both historically & moving forward)
· Credit/Covenant of the borrower (credit score/net worth/character)
· Loan to Value (LTV) Ratio ( 70% - 75% - 80%)
One of the earliest questions to consider – why is an institutional mortgage not available or possible? Chances are that it involves one or more of the above points. That should then help frame the 'risk' part of the deal – ie. if it's a credit problem or possibly an LTV issue. Once you identify the risk, then you can determine whether or not the reward (return) side, justifies funding the deal.
Once the decision is made to 'move forward', then you enter into the due diligence part of the transaction. Typical details would include -- reviewing the most recent appraisals on the property, credit reports/employment letters on the borrowers, personal statements, property condition reports, environmental reports, and even title searches. Full disclosure of the facts surrounding the transaction is what you are after, and you almost adopt the position of the Buyer in doing so.
Who should you involve? More than likely an experienced mortgage broker and a seasoned real estate lawyer for sure. The mortgage broker should help in the coordination of the due diligence process and all of the preliminaries. The lawyer then puts into place the actual mortgage document, ensuring your security over the term of the loan.
As always, it's always a good idea to consult with an experienced commercial broker in your area, when evaluating the risk/reward potential on a private mortgage.

Greetings Friends!
Last Sunday morning was a delightful day in the Lord here at Bethel Baptist. Now, we did not break any attendance records & did not baptize 3000 or added 500 to the membership in one day, but we had the presence of the blessed Holy Spirit Who was quite evident to all in attendance. So PTL for this wonderful & joyous blessing from the Lord.
The choir sang a preview to the cantata, "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." Pastor Seth explained the 500 year old text to help us more fully understand the message of the song in contemporary terms. (You could see the lightbulbs turning on all over the auditorium.) The number was zippy & with a neat piano accompaniment by Miss Anna Carpenter. Then the offertory was a stirring violin solo by Mrs. Elizabeth Gallagher, "Sing We Now of Christmas." The vibrant arrangement was moving & powerful climaxing with the string plucking at the end complimented luxuriously on the piano by Pastor Seth. It was delightful! I then preached from Psalm 54 "David's Prayer of Deliverance from Betrayal." I felt the strong presence of the Holy Spirit during the preaching that is not always there. But He was blessing & teaching through His instrument & I could literally feel it. For a preacher, that is a wonderful fulfillment.
Then the evening service was very low in attendance & the choir was way down in attendance. Pastor Seth explained that the Calhoun Family had the flu; Richard Burt was in the hospital; the Cobbs were traveling back from the Midwest from two funerals; & a couple of others were out for miscellaneous reasons. The choir was just ten people, but their song was wonderful. The congregational singing in spite of the attendance was also energetic. Then Mr. Lance Owen played "Born in a Manger" on his trumpet for the offertory. The clear, strong, holy atmosphere of the song was a blessing to all. After a testimony time, I preached from Exodus 2:9 on "The Privilege of Parenthood." I did not sense the same anointing in the evening as the morning service. It was OK, but not nearly as pronounced or spiritually defined as the AM for sure
So there you have it, the from-the-trenches report on last Sunday morning. And that is the way I saw it from where I stood.

Black Friday UK 2015: Deals and Bargains
Home Cinema, Tech, Gaming and Movies bargains ahead
Home AV News
17It's that time of year again; what began as an excuse for our friends across to the pond to go wild in the aisles, is now an established shopping phenomenon here in the UK.
What is Black Friday?Black Friday falls on the Friday 27 November, this year, and total sales are expected to eclipse the estimated £810 million spent by UK shoppers in 2014. It's no coincidence it falls on, what is for many, the last payday before Christmas. Black Friday is swiftly followed by Cyber Monday on 30th November where, last year, UK shoppers spent a further £650 million.
Typically, a limited amount of a particular product will go on sale at an allotted time, often at headline grabbing prices to attract attention and internet traffic. In other words, some deals are definitely more attractive than others so you'll need to be on the ball to grab those.
Black Friday Home Cinema dealsAs far as AVForums members are concerned it's a good time to go shopping as technology, gaming and movie sectors are ones that attract generous discounts.
We will be keeping our eyes out for deals and you can find our threads using this link to Black Friday Bargains. Last year, the Amazon Fire TV attracted a £15 discount on the day and we know Noble audio will be knocking 20% off all their in-ear monitors, as well as throwing in a BTS Bluetooth receiver. We've also been informed that VBox will be reducing their prices by 10% on all products over the Black Friday weekend but there will be lots more discounts right across the range of products we review.

Widow Celina Innes, a dress shop owner in the small 1886 mining town of Aspen, Colorado, struggles to run her shop and live down her late husband's bad choices for the sake of her four-year old daughter, Keena. She made the mistake of following after one man's dream of striking it rich and has sworn not to do it again. Co-owner of Toussaint's General Store, Mikel, watches this proud woman run a successful business but wishes he could make her life a little easier. He has to be contented by slipping treats to the child in hopes of pleasing her mama. When illness strikes the child, Celina turns to Mikel for help and they work together all night to get past the crisis, deepening their friendship. But when the crisis is over, Mikel disappears from Aspen and Celina learns he is seeking to increase his stores. How could she have been so wrong about the man? Can a woman sworn to put down roots and a man looking for more riches find happiness?
