Looking for answers? What you feel may be stopping you from finding the answers you seek. This show is about how to use prayer and meditation most effectively.
I hold a 30 Day Manifestation Challenge several times a year that focuses on different forms of receiving, meditation, creative visualization, attraction and manifesting. Here is one of the most recent testimonials:
"Dear JJ, I wanted to reach out and express how much I appreciated the free month long manifestation challenge. As a mother of two toddlers, a small business owner, and a two year cancer survivor, first finding your podcasts; then participating in the challenge with you was truly life changing. I was so impressed with how much one on one contact we had with you, and how involved we all became in supporting each other. You were constantly uplifting and supporting us throughout the month, while never pressuring. I appreciated how open we could be with our time commitment to it, doing as much or as little as we chose. Since the challenge I have noticed such a significant difference in my daily thoughts and feelings. I find I am MUCH more relaxed and able to handle almost all situations in a calmer manor, having almost no "knee jerk" reactions.

Today's show is going to be a little short. I just wanted to quickly come and say "Happy Friday, everybody. Happy Freedom Friday." I wanted to talk about this subject because it's near and dear to me and it's something I need to remember every so often as well. And I have recently started doing what I consider a prayer, up until now, ever since I left the church, so to speak, and have expanded my church to be universe and creator and law of attraction and non-physical energy, and to really open up that perspective and what that means to me, and not be so traditional or specific about how it gets delivered.
Prayer used to be, as I was growing up, but I know for a lot of people, prayer is asking for something sometimes. Maybe asking for peace in the world, asking for forgiveness, asking for a sign, asking for guidance. It's, a lot of times, asking. I also recently, because I've been doing a new prayer, so to speak, can feel very strongly the reason why a lot of people are very religious and very strict about their prayer practice, because in a prayer, there is an acknowledgment of a force greater than you. And no matter what you call that (God, Creator, Source, Allah, Buddha, Jesus), no matter what you think it is, call it, believe it to be, the minute that there's a dialogue started, whether it be out loud or in your mind, to an entity outside of yourself, that's not you…
Although in my view, it is still you. You're created in the likeness and image and are an extension of. There's no separation, which is why it's different for me being in the work that I'm doing, in the spiritual journey that I'm on that's different from what I think traditional religion is, which is a lot of people believe that there is a God and that I am made in the likeness and image of God, but I am not God. God is separate from me. And that belief does not work for me at all. It never has. It feels very victimized to me to be in a position where something greater than me has control over me. And while I could believe that God is a loving God and would never do anything to hurt me, it almost feels like I don't have the strongest connection. Again, I'm a child of God versus I am God.
In law of attraction, it gets explained in universal energy, like we're all mostly non-physical energy. We are all energy. And we, God, let's say God or Source, Creator, is all that is. It's all energy. But then we take all that energy and we focus it into physical forms, which is what we are. So it's like God is the sun and we're the sunbeams. We're still part of the sun, but we're an extension of the sun. The greater part of us is still the sun, is still non-physical energy. We're still attached to that. We still are that, but we are focused into a sunbeam, a smaller, more concentrated, very focused extension of that.
So in this recent prayer that I've been doing, I have noticed how loved and how supported and what the attention feels like on me. It's been great. And as I was listening to it before I transcribed it and as I recited it every day, it puts me into compassion and to acknowledgment of all the people who are very, very religious and feel that strong, loving connection to the god of their choice when they pray and really, really understanding that feeling you get in that prayer situation. Now, again, like I said earlier, some people believe that God is separate from them and they're not connected. They might be made in the likeness and image, but they are not actually God. So in that case, prayer can become an asking or a begging or a merciful, like "Forgive me. I've done something wrong. Please fix this for me. Show me the way." And while I still believe some of that is applicable to what I'm doing and what I believe, that can feel very victimized. I still think it feels very victimized. If I believe that God is separate from me, then things can be done to me that I don't have control over. And that doesn't feel good, and I don't believe that that's actually true.
So prayer, whether it be you feel connected and a part of your creator or you're separate from your creator, a lot of times is about an asking for something. And it might be a gratitude or appreciation, but it's normally done in a "I really want to know this" or "I really want to have this" or "I really want something to change." So let's just consider prayer kind of a question. Not all the time, but let's consider it a question. And whether it be a prayer or you just beating around trying to figure out and problem solve something that's going on with you, that prayer or question lives at a certain frequency. And in that frequency, you're not going to find the answer. That is the problem frequency. That is, what's being activated is the lack of something or the opportunity in the contrast to create something. But it isn't yet the answer.
In meditation… And again, it doesn't have to be meditation. It could be a walking meditation. It could be an exercising meditation, a dancing meditation. It could be an eating meditation. It doesn't have to be you sitting on the ground, crossed legs, spine straight, eyes closed, silent, and mind clear of all thoughts. That is not what it has to be. I never get downloads like that. I always get them when I'm dancing, rollerblading, running, doing something else. When I'm focused on something else, my mind is free to receive and I'm at a different vibrational frequency. The frequency of the problem, the frequency of the issue, the frequency of the condition, just like politics. I'm putting this on a Freedom Friday, so those of you that are political, you may not listen. And those of you that aren't political or don't want to be involved in the politics part, like people who do the politics, that's really focused on the problem. "Let's talk about the problem. Let's get upset about the problem. The problem, the problem, the problem." It's not actually the solution. No solution gets done when we continue to focus on the problem. It's necessary to understand what the problem is, but then once we understand that, we need to be in a different place to receive and understand and come up with and be inspired about the answer to the problem.
So if you're currently in a situation, whether it be with a relationship or your job or your life or your health, and you have something that's been bugging you, and you're not sure what to do about it, and maybe you pray, maybe you don't, maybe you're using law of attraction and you're trying to direct your thoughts into a more positive place, find a way to get into a state that feels different. And that's why in law of attraction, there's a lot of talk about sort of ignoring things or redirecting your focus. Just take a break. You don't have to leave it forever.
So if it's politics or if it's, again, an issue which needs to be solved and you feel like you can't walk away from it forever or ignore it, just take a break from it. Do something different. It's called a state change. Create a state change. Drop it. Put it down for a second. Walk away. Do something different. Do something fun. Dance. Cook. Get a massage. Go to the spa. Play a game. Exercise. Watch a funny television show or movie. Tell some jokes. Call a friend. Do something different. Walk away from it for a different perspective so that you can detach that energy, allow your frequency and vibration to rise, and then receive the answer in that higher place, because that's where the answer lives, not in the place where the problem lives.
So if you're feeling any negative emotion and you continue to spiral through "Why am I not figuring this out? Why am I feeling this way?" know that you're not going to get the answer there. You can't. You feel terrible. You're not going to get the answer when you feel terrible. You're going to get the answer when you feel better. So find a way to feel better. And it doesn't have to be meditation, but it can be. It could be hypnosis. Again, I said it could be dancing. It could be doing something fun. It's about a state change that gives you a new perspective, that gives you a different perspective, and then you can allow the answer to come to you.
So if you're someone who prays, if you're someone who believes in non-physical communication and energy and inspiration, know that that higher-level answer can only be received when you're listening, when you're open. Meditation is the quieting of the mind or at least the detaching and becoming the observer of the mind so that you can see what flows in and out and what crosses your brain and your path and your consciousness. So if prayer is talking to, asking for, wanting this and that, use meditation. Use a state change. Use a quietness of some kind to allow yourself to receive the answer.
I think this is one of the biggest issues with our society when it comes to problem solving. People think they have to beat the problem into the ground or focus on it, focus on it, focus on it. And then they feel bad, and they feel bad, and they feel bad over and over and over again, and they wonder why it doesn't get better. And it gets better temporarily, but it doesn't actually ever get better permanently. And that's because we keep searching for answers in that red hot moment when we're in that angry, frustrated state of being. I would recommend for those of you that are feeling stuck, feeling like you're looking for an answer that you just can't figure out, you haven't been able to wrap your head around it, and no one has been able to give you the right answer, to let it go, write it down, walk away from it, redirect yourself into a totally other place, and allow the answer to come to you, because I promise it will. Have a great Friday.

Outreaches to Women are not like traditional women's gatherings, but are focused to release women into their destiny. We believe the older women are mandated to teach, train and mentor the younger women on how to conduct themselves in every situation of life. It is imperative for Christian women to learn how to walk in their God-ordained destiny and experience the life changing presence of Jesus on a daily basis. There are jewels and nuggets that can be captured from mature women in the faith that have withstood opposition in their Kingdom journey. These experiences should be shared with others to enrich the lives of younger women.
Reaching out to the ONE wherever we are, whenever we can…will find those in need and impart the mother's heart to touch like none other…
Outreaches to Women ~ This concept was birthed in the heart of Brenda Jones after attending the Heart of the Father's Gathering in Nashville, Tennessee, January 2009. It was during this prophetic conference that a fresh flame was ignited to see women released in their destiny, as the voice of Bob Jones resounded that…"2009 would be the year of the Release of the Woman"…for kingdom purposes. Prayer sessions and Bible studies were immediately began to hear the heart of the Father to bring about his purpose of releasing women into their God-called destiny…everywhere…
The vision of Outreaches to Women is to further develop relationships across denominational and cultural lines to embrace women eager to experience the full release of what God has planned for them in relation to their Bridegroom King ~ Jesus. The Fearless Bride gatherings are intended to provide an atmosphere where women can spend time in His Presence and experience the love, acceptance, and release of the Father's strength to become fearless to walk out their destiny with the Bridegroom.
A new day, a new season…Come be refreshed in the garden of the King. New Life bursts open in vibrant color. Fragrance intoxicates, while the lovesick songs of the Bridegroom rejoicing over His Bride fill the atmosphere. Come rest in His Embrace, while He writes the secrets of His heart on yours. You are His desire. Winter is gone… Awaken. Enter fearlessly into His Presence. Come Taste and See that the Lord is good. The King is waiting for another encounter with His Bride.
February 21, 2009 ~ Initial Gathering, Cleveland, Tennessee Seven women gathered in Cleveland, Tennessee to begin a new journey and discovery of how to minister to women and see them released into their ultimate destiny. During this gathering, the attendees were commissioned to seek out other women in leadership with like-passion and bring them alongside to experience MORE of the purposes of God. Testimonies were shared…prayers of thanksgiving were offered…as the Presence of the Holy Spirit touched each one with a fresh anointing.
September 11-13, 2009 ~ Women's Leadership Summit, Townsend, Tennessee Fifteen women gathered from various states and experienced a time of refreshing and encouragement from each other and the Lord. It was a time of rekindling past relationships and building new ones with women in leadership. Many of these women had experienced a challenging year of transition and each session was designed to encourage interactions with insights based on various life experiences. We realized that networking brings strength and encouragement needed to walk out the destiny God has for each one of us, as we listened to each other share marvelous insights from the Word of God.
The theme of the summit was Jeremiah 29:11,
"For I know the thoughts and the plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for your welfare and peace, and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome".
Women left eager to extend their natural abilities and partner with the Holy Spirit to make a difference in everything they do…women left empowered to carry His Presence into their unique worlds, where they are commissioned to speak and release destiny in the people they encounter. Those who attended will never be the same…
Bible Study 2010 ~ Hearing the Voice of God, Cleveland, Tennessee For several weeks throughout the year, women came together to study how to better hear the voice of God and pray for each other's needs. Priscilla C. Shirer's study ~ Discerning the Voice of God: Howe to Recognize When God is Speaking ~ led the discussions to build confidence and assurance in knowing that God is still speaking today in and through our daily life's experiences. We were challenged by the study questions as we discussed our individual perception…we were strengthened to know God wants to communicate with us as much as we want to hear His voice…it's really about anticipating and hearing…
April 15-17, 2011 ~ 1st Fearless Bride Retreat ~ Camp Wightman, Griswold, Connecticut
The Invitation:
Come expecting to receive a greater awareness of the kingdom riches that He so lovingly bestows on His Bride.
Come expecting to be armed and equipped to fearlessly walk out your kingdom assignments and step into the fullness of your destiny…
Come to an Encounter with the King.
As a result of Brenda Jones accepting an invitation to speak in the New England area from Kainos leaders, Natalie & Kevin Messerschmidt, the idea of having a women's retreat in Connecticut was birthed. Because of the hunger for "more of Him" from the believers in this region, women attended the retreat from various churches. The secluded retreat setting provided an intimate time with The Bridegroom King and a time of refreshing and impartation of His mercy, grace, and love, bringing encouragement, direction, and power to live fearlessly for The One who loves us the most. Those who attended experienced an encounter with the King…received a greater awareness of the kingdom riches that He so lovingly bestows on His Bride…came expecting to be armed and equipped to fearlessly walk out our kingdom assignments and step into the fullness of our destiny…He shared His secrets and instructions of how to become fearless in His Presence.
March 16-18, 2012 ~ 2nd Fearless Bride Retreat ~ Camp Wightman, Griswold, Connecticut
May 3-5, 2013 ~ 3rd Fearless Bride Retreat ~ Camp Wightman, Griswold, Connecticut
The Invitation:
A new day, a new season…
Come be refreshed in the garden of the King. New Life bursts open in vibrant color. Fragrance intoxicates, while the lovesick songs of the Bridegroom rejoicing over His Bride fill the atmosphere. Come rest in His Embrace, while He writes the secrets of His heart on yours. You are His desire.
Winter is gone…
Awaken. Enter fearlessly into His Presence. Come Taste and See that the Lord is good.
The King is waiting for another encounter with His Bride.
The retreat theme focuses on setting time aside to spend with King Jesus. It was a time of fun and laughter, crying and releasing heavy weights of emotional pain, and receiving His acceptance and love through truths found in the Song of Songs. On the last day, there was a holy commissioning extended to each woman to carry His love and compassion throughout all the world as His Fearless Bride. We experienced another encounter with Him….
Upcoming Event October 23-25, 2014 ~ 4th Fearless Bride Conference ~ Hope Church, East Hampton, Connecticut

The Fine Art Of Running A Gallery
The J. M. Stringer Gallery celebrates the beauty of 19th and early 20th century painting.
Girls Playing on a Hillside, oil on canvas, 24" x 29", by American artist Lee Lufkin Kaula whose style is reminiscent of Mary Cassatt. Kaula is one of the artists featured at J.M. Stringer Gallery's exhibition of 19th and early 20th century antique paintings this month.
When John Stringer greets a visitor to his fine arts gallery it's as if he's inviting them into his home. Always the perfect host, Stringer delights in the opportunity to show people around the salon-like setting he designed. He points out paintings and sculptures he's particularly fond of and tells mini-stories about the artists, the time and place in which they lived, and how he came to acquire their work. Stringer takes great pride in the gallery's collection of original paintings, sculptures and selected objets d'art, and it's easy to see why. His expertise and enthusiasm combined with the elegant ambiance he created add up to a refreshing and most enjoyable art experience, enhanced in part by Coco and Joey, one-year-old Yorkshire terriers, who relish their role as gallery mascots.

For our very first Valentine's Day together, John and I decided to make sushi together. It was not the first time I had made sushi in my life, but it was the first time I wanted to impress someone with my sushi-making skills. That made me nervous because there a lot of things to mess up when making homemade sushi.
We actually managed to do a great job, but I think we ended up eating about 2 hours later than expected. Since then, we've picked up some tips to make the whole process much
easier. Now, we whip up our own sushi almost as often as we go out for it!
This series of posts will outline the 4 main components of sushi-making that used to make us cringe and how we have mastered them: the rice, the filling, the rolling, the cutting.
Today's Focus…
The Rice!
The perfect sushi rice should be tender but still have a bite. It should be sticky but still maintain loosely separated grains. It should be seasoned well but should not overpower the fish. There is a lot of room for error here.
I learned a lot about how to prepare sushi rice from this article from Serious Eats. It seems a bit fussy, but it is very informative, and I actually skip most of the fussy steps. Everything else is pretty easy. I have messed this up zero times.
First of all, you must start with the correct rice. It must be short grain. It also must be rinsed it like crazy. I put it in the pot, cover it with water, wash it, and then pour it out. Repeat 15 times or so. I'm not kidding about that. It takes awhile.
Choosing the correct rice and rinsing until the water runs clear will help you with that sticky-but-not-too-stickiness.
Next, you need to cook it. I use one cup of water, plus a tiny bit more for every cup of rice. I also recommend using a rice cooker. No need to pay attention to this bad boy, so I can focus on other stuff for the sushi prep.
Then, you need to season the rice. I use a combination of sugar, unseasoned rice vinegar and kosher salt. Those ingredients are staples in my pantry. Keep it simple.
When mixing in the seasoning, be gentle with the rice grains. If you stir vigorously, they will get smooshed, which is not ideal. It's also recommended that you mix in a pan with a large area so the rice can cool more quickly.
This is the Serious Eats recipe you can use to make perfect sushi rice!
Below is my simplified version. I also changed the ingredient measurements to make a smaller portion of rice. My batch of rice makes enough for approximately seven sushi rolls.
Sushi Rice
2 cups short grain white rice
2 cups plus 3 tablespoons filtered watered
2/3 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tsp kosher salt
2 tbs. plus 2 tsp. granulated sugar
- Rinse the rice in your pot until the water runs clear. Drain the water from the rice.
- Add the filtered water to your rice.
- Cook in your rice cooker until it clicks off. Then, let it sit and steam for about 10 minutes. You can also cook it on the stove top: bring the rice to a boil in a covered pot, simmer on low for 15 minutes Then, turn off the heat and let it sit and steam for 10 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed.
- While the rice is cooking, measure the vinegar, salt, and sugar into a microwave safe vessel (I just use my liquid measuring cup). Heat it for one minute and stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. You can also do this on the stove top.
- When the rice has finished steaming, gently scoop the rice into a non-reactive, shallow pan. (I use a 9 x 13 inch Pyrex). Serious Eats recommends having a fan blowing on the rice from this point on. I do not do this, but I do always have a nice breeze going through my kitchen and that helps cool the rice.
- Spread the rice into a thin layer and sprinkle the vinegar mixture onto the rice. (If you do not like your rice highly seasoned, you may want to try using just half at first.)
- Fold the vinegar mixture into the rice. When it is all mixed in your rice will be nice and shiny.
- Cover the pan with a clean towel until you are ready to roll your sushi. Do not refrigerate the rice.
Okay, now you are ready for Step 2: The Filling!

Trade Ed. Hay House 2001
CS ISBN 1561707457 $10.95 One cassettes
The physical world we see and touch is not all there is. In a talk at the Chopra Center, Chopra explains that our perceptions of ourselves and our surroundings are not the result of physical or biological reality. What we perceive are the manifestations of invisible signals, like FM radio waves, that exist under the surface of things and across space and time. The most enlightening insight is Chopra's delightful and sophisticated discussion of free will. Once enlightened, we can choose which part of this underlying reality we want to hook up with and access all the power of the universe in manifesting our desires and choices. Chopra's speaking style has a homespun flow despite the abstract nature of the subject matter. T.W.

Today I am 30 years old. Remember when that was old, you know, like five years ago? I'd say that I am officially an adult now. I know that I have been for years now, but no longer do I have the excuse of being in my learning about life period.
As I enter this new decade and new phase in my life, it's fitting that we are now in a new place with a world of opportunity. The opportunity for me to work part-time from home and be more of a full-time mom, find a new 'dream' house, make new friends and bond more with my family.
This morning I woke up early to go for a run. To have some me time and think about all that I've seen, done and experienced so far. When I got home, Josh had done a little decorating.
He is excited that I'm finally 30, after me teasing him for years about being in his 30s. After he left for work I got myself cleaned up and was treated to huge birthday hugs from my sweet Ella. I think she is almost as excited as she would be for her own birthday. Of course she was disappointed when I told her we would not be having cake for breakfast.
The rest of the morning we spent at story time where Ella made me a butterfly for me. "It's a very special day and you need a pink butterfly pretty mommy, Happy birthday, I love you," she said. Melt my heart.
I'm sitting in the still of our apartment now. My two biggest accomplishments snoozing away and Lucky at my feet. I think we'll go to the park this afternoon and bask in the sunshine as we play by a nearby lake before Josh takes us out to dinner after work.
This is my kind of day.
I thought I would dread hitting 30. You know what? I'm kind of excited about it.

An Argentine sports marketing executive testified that Fox Sports and Mexico's Grupo Televisa both paid bribes for soccer television rights, his attorney said, as the US government's Federation Internationale de Football Association corruption trial in NY federal court heated up further Tuesday.
Burzaco told the court the bribes came in the form of phony contracts, including one from 2008 that involved the Fox Sports/Torneos partnership paying $3.7 million to the recipients. They say it was signed by a former Fox executive.
Fox Sports, Televisa in Mexico and Globo Comunicacao and Participacoes SA in Brazil did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Burzaco said Fox Sports wanted to use "the TV rights to expand its Fox signal in all of the Americas, from Argentina to the U.S.". In a statement, Globo vehemently denied making bribes and said it was willing to cooperate with USA authorities.
Blues leading race to sign Schalke 04 midfielder alongside Premier League rivals
Juventus seem to be the frontrunners to sign Can, but Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is still hoping his compatriot will commit his future to Anfield.
Sky Sports's sister network was named among some of the world's biggest broadcasters during the trial of three officials from the game's governing body in Brooklyn, New York.
Burzaco also testified Tuesday that he had personally bribed Burga, Marin, and Napout for a three- or five-year period, beginning in 2010.
Burzaco's testimony is part of a trial of several ex-soccer executives, who were charged as part of an worldwide investigation into corruption in global soccer. He described a series of meetings at hotels and restaurants in Buenos Aires starting in 2012 during which he helped forge deals for annual six-figure bribes for Marin, the former president of Brazil's soccer federation; Burga, the former president of Peru's soccer federation; and Napout, the former head of Paraguay's soccer federation. After being charged in 2015, Burzaco testified that he briefly went into hiding before deciding to turn himself in and cooperate.

Introducing the Kaitorete Woolly Head
If you've never come across the Kaitorete Woolly Head – Craspedia 'Kaitorete' – it's hard to imagine what this rare and endangered plant might look like. As it turns out, it's a nondescript specimen – low-growing and grey with soft, velvety leaves that look a little like rabbit ears. It could be easily overlooked.
Craspedia is a genus of daisies commonly known as billy buttons or woolly heads. They're native to New Zealand and Australia, where they grow in a wide variety of habitats from sea level to the alps. In New Zealand, they're found from East Cape in the North Island, all the way down to Stewart Island and the Chathams. Of the 23 species, six are found in New Zealand, usually growing on coastal sand dunes, in wetlands and on greywacke rock scree.
Craspedia 'Kaitorete' though, is found only on Kaitorete Spit, close to Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere. It is one of the rarest plants in New Zealand.

I've seen tons and tons of cards out there made with all kinds of gorgeous stamps from Altenew. I got myself the Scribbled flowers set a few months ago and after several failed attempts I put them to the side and figured they'd end up in the "things I hope someone else will buy from me"-box. (I actually don't hoard stamps! If I don't like/use them, I sell them! Who'd have guessed, huh?)
Then the other night I decided to give them one last chance, this time together with med new Hero arts inks. And lo and behold! All of a sudden it just came together. Veeeery clean and simple with just two shades of ink and a black sentiment. Actually, it was a bit too clean and I didn't know how to continue so I just added a few droplets of black dylusions ink spray.

Marketing Mix of Carrefour analyses the brand/company which covers 4Ps (Product, Price, Place, Promotion) and explains the Carrefour marketing strategy. The article elaborates the pricing, advertising & distribution strategies used by the company.
Let us start the Carrefour Marketing Mix:
Carrefour is one of the leading retail stores in the world. Carrefour stores & its services are its marketing mix product strategy. It's stores are present worldwide in various formats to cater to all kinds of needs of its customers:
1. Hypermarkets - Ideal stop for families doing major shopping, offers a variety of food and non-food items at low prices
2. Supermarkets - Offers a huge variety of fresh produce, local products, and non-food items at attractive prices
3. Convenience stores – these are designed to address the local needs of the customers offering products at low prices and are open till late-night.
4. Cash & Carry stores, Hypercash stores – Displays all the products on pallets and are sold usually to bulk buyers such restaurateurs and similar professionals
5. Multi-channel strategy – Carrefour is providing its customers with e-commerce and m-commerce solutions to make them shop anytime and anywhere.

Carrefour generally follows 'low prices every day' policy, but frequently switches between a mix of policies. Carrefour generally keeps a very low price for the sensitive products i.e. the products which are highly price elastic, non-sensitive products are reasonably priced and imported products are priced very high. However, the major portion of the revenue comes from the sale of Carrefour's own brand products which are priced as per the demand. This gives an insight about the pricing strategy in the marketing mix of Carrefour.
Carrefour has more than 12,000 stores operating in more than 30 countries in Europe, America, Asia and Africa. Carrefour has ensured its presence in 19 integrated countries and has franchised stores in 20 other countries. The group, in addition to the traditional format has developed a wide range formats to cater to all kinds of shopping pattern, be it daily purchases, weekly hypermarket visits or bulk buys by business customers.
Carrefour ensures that all its stores appear inviting via the use of attractive & modern designs with different banners in every store. Such steps provide Carrefour a competitive advantage and helps in increasing sales and market reach. As of June 2016, Carrefour has 1481 hypermarkets, 3462 Supermarkets, 7181 convenience stores and 171 Cash & Carry stores.
IBM & its partners developed an in-store promotion system for Carrefour's supermarket & hypermarket stores, that can be entirely operated by Carrefour and thus enabling it to plan and execute more targeted campaigns and have feedback about how effective they were. Carrefour, as a part of its Relationship Management Strategy launched 'MyCLUB' loyalty card for its retail customers to achieve their loyalty and ensure customer retention. This card enables customers to earn points on every purchase which can be redeemed in place of cash on their next visit.
Since this is a service marketing brand, here are the other three Ps to make it the 7Ps marketing mix of Carrefour.
Carrefour puts in a lot of effort and funds to train its existing employees not only to provide excellent services to the customers but also to pass on their expertise and ultimately raise the service standards. In addition to salaries, employees are offered various other facilities like- medical benefits, supplementary pension scheme, profit-sharing schemes etc. Carrefour offers a lot of options for the employees to enhance their skills and climb the ranks, like- individual training paths and annual interviews.
Carrefour has streamlined its distribution and delivery by choosing the right store formats as per the preference of its customers. The strategy of renovation of existing stores and development of new stores for expansion has shown considerable impact in its financial report. In addition to the brick and mortar stores, Carrefour's online shopping portal has made shopping very convenient and efficient for the customers.
Carrefour constantly tries to update itself as per the preferences of its customers. It adapts itself to the market (Urban or Rural), this is not restricted to the products only, this extends to lighting, furnishings, and additional services. For example- Carrefour rejuvenated Bairro supermarkets in Brazil to provide a better shopping experience to its customers and renovated its stores in Italy and Belgium to enhance the offering by using its design to seduce the customers. Hence, this completes the Carrefour marketing mix.
About Carrefour:
Carrefour, in French stands for crossroads, it was created in 1958 by Denis Defforey , Jacques Defforey and Marcel Fournier. It is the second largest hypermarket chain in the world in terms of outlets and revenues, only next to Walmart. The 1st Carrefour store was opened in 1960 and it was not a hypermarket, though in Europe they were the first to open a department store, a large supermarket, and a hypermarket. Carrefour has 12,000+ stores worldwide, employing more than 3,80,000 people with an annual sale of 76.9 billion EUR.

Well I was sat waiting on a parcel arriving yesterday and stuck in the house so I thought I would have a rummage through my copy of Warhammer 3rd edition and came across some interesting concepts, especially from a company which is currently so stringent on getting folks to buy more figures and codexes.
In the main rules it says if you cant find a rule or you dont like the existing one, then ignore it and make up your own. Furthermore it even encourages you to think out of the box and have fun and at one point even goes as far as to say you dont need to follow army lists, just use what you have!
The rules themselves are familiar to anyone who has played Warhammer but with a decent level of complexity rather than the tasteless offerings of the newest edition and I think its really going to lend itself to some nice scenario based games.
The only thing its missing really is a custom model generator to allow you to field anything you want. Saying that I have my copy of Rogue Trader to hand which contains a breakdown of points cost so bodging something together shouldn't be too complex.
I am going to try out the basic rules with some counters until I get hold of some suitable miniatures and sort out what force I want to start off with. In all honesty I am stumped at present as theres so much to choose from ranging from Technomancer Dwarves to Slann and even Twisted Elves.
I must admit that I have always been a fan of the Dwarves so think I might make a start with a Dwarven expeditionary force which can be used either on the frontiers of Aeroth or exploring the interior of Crucible.
Boar Company Dwarves
The Boar Company will be making an appearance too, possibly with a large Wildling grunting in their midst and I am going to try and make a few hand casts of them this time so I can bulk out their numbers into a full scale force!
Looking at the Warhammer Armies book it looks like I should need 20 Crossbowmen and 40 Warriors along with some command figures but I think I might start out with 15 Warriors and 10 Crossbowmen and see how I go!
All the best!

Mid-January at the Rhododendron Garden
This raptor was sitting on the puniest tree.
And then I accidentally scared him! Too much staring, I guess.
A while back, I took a nice, long walk at the Crystal Springs Rhododendron Gardens. It's so close to where I live, it's my favorite place to go.
I couldn't believe that there were flowers. This was in January, mid-January. In Michigan, everything would be brown and barren, and probably covered in snow. On the one hand, it's refreshing to see flowers; on the other hand, it's discombobulating. I actually had a nightmare where I saw flowers in the winter and I was confused about what season it was!
See? Even the Rhododendrons are blooming.
The rest of this post will be pictures of ducks. Above are some wood ducks hobbling along.
The Canada goose posed quite nicely for me.
This Greater Scaup is showing his beautiful colors.
An American Wigeon squeaks like a dog's squeaky toy.
Do you see the ripples emanating from Mr. Duck? Well, it is because this Gadwall is meticulously kicking the underwater area to bring up tasty morsels of food. It's quite cute to see.
Hello, fuzzy squirrel.
Wow, look at the sky. Wait, shouldn't it be raining?
Some gorgeous trees.
Flowers on the trees, but the bathrooms are closed.
And here is probably a California Gull (correct me if I'm wrong). Alongside a cormorant. I don't know if you can zoom in, but you might be able to see the bright green of the cormorant's eye. Spectacular!
One crazy coot. Check.
A large flock of waterfowl.
I came across a busy Spotted Towhee. He didn't want to pose for me, which is quite understandable.
He finally posed for me, but I didn't get the camera in focus! What a pretty bird.
As the sun was setting, the squirrels scuttled around, and I made my way back home.

Okay, so it is once again time for me to do something that still makes me feel uncomfortable. Ask for assistance. Some lessons require much practice.
We've been meeting here at Creatavita for 3 years, 1 month and 2 days. I enjoy this even more than I thought I would. Your response has inspired me to continue to collect my thoughts, ideas and experiences here so that they can inspire you.
With each post, readership steadily grows. But I'd like it to grow even more steadily. And that's where you come in.
Would you please sign up to have new posts delivered to your inbox? You should see the sign up widget at the top of the right-hand column.
My goal for 2015 is to have 20 more people sign up. That might seem like a small number, but one of the things I have learned is to have attainable goals and to then build on that success. (And that's an example of what you read here, right?) I know that some of you have already signed up and are receiving these posts via your inbox. Thank you!!! If that's the case, I'd be eternally grateful (okay, maybe until next year) if you would pass this invitation on to others. Going over 20 new subscribers would really make my day!
I know that many of you read Creatavita via Facebook, Twitter or Google+, and of course it will still appear on those social media platforms. But in private conversations, I have become increasingly aware that not every post gets seen by every social media viewer. Having it come to your inbox assures that you'll see every post.
So help me achieve one of my goals. Sign up today. Besides, there might be an idea out here that will change your life. You never know!

Enda Kenny has retained the leadership of Fine Gael, the party said today.
Chairman Padraic McCormack revealed that a motion of confidence in Mr Kenny, put forward by himself, was carried by the 70-strong parliamentary party.
Mr Kenny had lost the support of the majority of his front bench and is expected to reshuffle his Shadow Cabinet next Monday.
Mr McCormack refused to disclose the margin of Mr Kenny's victory.
He said only himself and Senator Paschal Donohoe knew the result of the ballot and both had been sworn to secrecy.
The chairman said the leadership heave, instigated by Mr Kenny's former number two, was now closed.

A hand-painted poster for 'Apocalypse Now' by legendary Thailand-based graphic designer and artist Tongdee Panumas. You can see the image above in more detail (and trust me, you want to), here.
Thailand-based artist Tongdee Panumas signs his posters using only his first name. Panumas is a legend when it comes to the world of hand-painted movie posters.
Until the late 1990s, film distribution companies in Thailand would routinely commission artists from their own country to hand-paint homegrown original movie posters using stills of memorable characters and scenes from the films as the basis for their renderings. During a span of three decades starting in the 1970s Tongdee churned out a seemingly impossible number of movie posters for classic American films such as Escape from New York, The Terminator, The Silence of the Lambs as well as a myriad of Thai movies, too.
Panumas' posters are exuberant, appearing as though they could at any moment leap off the page thanks to Tongdee's masterful use of color, composition, and realism. The artist is also adept at utilizing every inch of his canvas—such as his jaw-droppingly epic poster for Francis Ford Coppola's 1979 Vietnam war film masterpiece, Apocalypse Now which is pictured in all its hypnotic glory at the top of this post. In 2012, an exhibit called Eyegasm: The Art of Thai Movie Posters showcased Tongdee's posters as well as those of another wildly talented Thai graphic artist, Somboonsuk Niyomsiri (aka "Piak Poster") in order to help shine a light on the art form that has sadly experienced a huge decline over the last decade or so.
From what I was able to ascertain it appears that Tongdee is a rather private individual, as there is little to nothing written about him on the Internet. According to the beautifully curated blog Film on Paper written by interaction designer Eddie Shannon, in 2016 he was able to commission Tongdee to create an exceptional poster based on the 1987 film Predator, giving nearly all creative control to the artist. The result is nothing short of fantastic. Of course, the admission for entry somewhat suggests that you too could perhaps engage the services of Tongdee to create the movie poster of your dreams. Some of the images that follow are awesomely NSFW.

Feathercoin is a cryptocurrency that was released as an alternative to the widely-popular bitcoin.
Feathercoin was created around 2013 and remains active despite a relatively small trading volume. A fork of litecoin, it did not offer much in terms of uniqueness when compared to bitcoin and its other blockchain-based predecessors and was considered to be just another clone in what quickly become a flooded market of open-source altcoins.
Feathercoin's Key Attributes
Although similar to bitcoin and litecoin in many ways, feathercoin differs in a few key areas including the following.
- It takes about a minute to generate a block, confirming transactions in about one-tenth of the time as it does on the bitcoin blockchain.
- The reward for each block is 40 coins, distributed among the miners who solved it.
- The maximum number of feathercoin that can be produced is 336 million, compared to 84 million for litecoin and 21 million for bitcoin.
What Else Makes Feathercoin Different?
Feathercoin utilizes the hashing NeoScrypt algorithm to solve the aforementioned cryptographically-protected blocks, not as complex as the SHA-256 design employed by bitcoin but very processor-intensive.
How to Mine Feathercoin
Since feathercoin utilizes NeoScrypt, it can be mined using processor power from both CPUs and graphics cards (GPUs); with the latter being the most efficient.
You can choose to mine with your own existing hardware or a mining rig built specifically to hash with NeoScrypt or similar algorithms.
While more advanced users may decide to mine on their own, most get started by joining a feathercoin mining pool where your hashing power is combined with others to solve blocks quicker and divvy up the rewards accordingly. Although feathercoin doesn't even rank in the top 100 altcoins in terms of market share, there are still some fairly active mining pools around including The Blocks Factory, Give Me Coins and P2Pool.
Where to Buy Feathercoin
If the prospect of mining doesn't interest you, feathercoin can be bought, traded and sold for other cryptocurrencies like bitcoin as well as for fiat currency including US dollars on multiple exchanges. Two of the more well-known exchanges that see a decent number of feathercoin transactions are Bittrex and Cryptopia.
Feathercoin Wallets
While the paper money you are used to carrying around is (or can be) stored in a physical wallet, cryptocurrencies, like all digital currencies, have to be stored in a software-based digital wallet. Although you will find links to feathercoin wallets throughout the web, the only safe way to know that you're downloading the latest and correct version is by scrolling to the bottom of the coin's official home page and selecting the button for your particular operating system.
Exploring the Feathercoin Blockchain
Similar to other virtual currencies that utilize a public blockchain, all feathercoin transacations are viewable in real-time via a block explorer such as Fsight or BitInfoCharts, the latter which ranks the busiest and richest addresses.

Clothing is the covering that you wear to cover your body. Have you ever seen cows, cats, dogs, tigers, etc. animals except the pet ones wearing clothes? No, this is because clothing is restricted to human beings. Physically, clothing can serve many purposes like protection from several elements; enhance safety protection while performing activities like hiking, cooking and others. If you have been like the early man, you could have got insect bites, scratched from the rough surfaces and other things could have hurt you badly. Clothing provides protection from the day-to-day activities which might hurt us badly. Clothing helps to insulate against hot and cold conditions. You can protect your skin from harmful UV radiations and can remain hygienic, away from infectious and toxic materials.
Clothing has brought about a massive change from the time it came into existence. Today, we just don't wrap ourselves in a piece of cloth but also have different cuts and styles to it. Who knew that there would be a day when skirts for women will be there or jeans for all, and formal suits for men. In earlier days the clothing style was not in sync with what we follow today, but was entirely different. Nowadays, clothing style is not stuck to gender classification but has risen above it. The trousers which were supposed to be worn by men have now changed its orientation and have become universal which exclaims that even women can also wear them. Stylize yourself in different looks and enjoy the new you!

The Algeti National Park is a protected area in Georgia, in the southeast of the country. It lies in the region of Kvemo Kartli, within the Municipality of Tetritsqaro, some 60 km southwest of the nation's capital, Tbilisi. The Algeti National Park stretches along the upper Algeti valley at the woody southern slopes of the eastern Trialeti Range, with the highest point being Mount Kldekari at 2000 m above sea level. The park was founded under the Soviet government in 1965 as a state reserve to protect the easternmost limits of the Caucasian Spruce and Nordmann Fir. In 2007, it was reorganized into a national park.

Handbags with artificial attached flowers
They looked beyond the finished area of the basement. We fed handbags with artificial attached flowers hands three times of them to the blood hag, his brother merenthraur said recklessly; she didn like to be called that, handbags with artificial attached flowers to use her praise name of crow goddess. I pushed bowden in front of me; he tripped and collapsed on top of sturmey, who gave a small cry that was drowned out by the loud concussion of a shotgun going off at close quarters.

And I did check on which ships were here before taking this drastic step. And we all got a sore spot we don like to have touched. Surely mccormack would get the hint. Their jack russell puppy was poisoned. Thorne was drawn to a large map, which covered one whole wall of the conference room. But not in good repair by any standard. Her eyes blinked open, slowly, as if she had been asleep. But what we don have is ktw metal piercing ammo, also known as cop killers. It then erases the code lines that refer to it.

How is this possible? But we not kids anymore. What do you know about this.

Case Study
- Project:
- Heads of Property Development
- Media:
- Press, Digital
Hanover needed to recruit to two senior property roles – these were traditionally hard roles to fill, and generally paid high salaries which Hanover could not compete with. During the brief, it became clear that applicants were likely to come from another sector – in which case, they would have to be persuaded that Older Peoples Housing was a more exciting and dynamic environment than they might have imagined. As a result, we came up with the concept Tales of the Unexpected. Using minimal text to maximise impact, the advert ran in the property press and directed people to a bespoke adsite. The total cost was well below 10% of total salary, and the response was excellent – both roles had impressive shortlists and successful appointments from the commercial sector.

[Read about the history of the Armuchee Bluegrass Festival.]
Armuchee - Labor Day Weekend 2002. The Thirtieth Anniversary! The weather cooperated after a rainy beginning to produce a wonderful day of music on Saturday. Sounds just like last year. I arrived shortly after 8 p.m. on Friday evening to find the festival already well into the evening program. There had been a hard downpour of rain (sound familiar?) late in the afternoon and the weather had cleared to a cool, late summer Georgia evening! Campers were getting in place and jam sessions were already started.
After visiting a bit with the Farleys and Langleys, I headed to the stage area to hear a bit of music and then to the campgrounds to catch up with my many friends in the jamming areas. As would be expected, I was able to hear some great music and learn about the latest adventures - and there were plenty! And, of course, I just can't be around pickers such as Ron Norman and Greg Brown without talking banjos...
Saturday was a day with high temperatures only in the eighties! Unheard of for a Labor Day festival at Armuchee, but t'was great! I returned to the festival early in the morning and immediately ran into Mr. Carl Queen - Atlanta Country Music Hall of Famer and of Atteiram Records. It was great to see him and get to hear about some of the recordings he has done with many of the legends in bluegrass. He is truly an encyclopedia of bluegrass music.
Then, as I was moving through the organizers/promoters area I ran into Mr. Mack and he was showing a couple of his prize fiddles...you surely need to hear of the history behind those! As I moved on into the camping area, I ran into a strange site...I will let the photo explain for itself far better than words...a great group of Armuchee stalwarts! Pat, Dale, Larry, Billy...always a pleasure to see and hear from you!
On Saturday afternoon and evening, I especially enjoyed taking in several stage shows. My apologies for the bands I did not get to listen to...
It was especially good to see Kent and Georgia Olson playing with Passtime Bluegrass and to get to socialize a bit. And promoters were all present...Mr. and Ms. Rakestraw of Raccoon Creek (sorry, they got away before I was able to get a photo...Jack and Jan Masters who will be promoting Marietta...Harold Cowart of Southern Breeze...not only a good promoter, but a fine banjo player as well. I always enjoy getting to talk banjos with him...and Beth Shuler (Rocky Top Music Park) was enjoying the stage show of the Rocky Top Band - with hubby and band member Alvin. Jimmy Clark...my hat is off to all these people who make sure we have a place to enjoy our music!
As always, it was good to see good friends such as Mindy Rakestraw - she has to start playing the resophonic guitar on stage, fiddler Jerry Burke, the Georgia Bound band - though Murray was not available due to other obligations, Lee and Wanda Taylor - some great old time music - and Lee plays clawhammer banjo just the way I like...Tom and Aina and Jim Lassiter, Ed Wade...and the Baxters. The Bluegrass Five with Jeremy, Katy, and Wesley are outstanding...also heard a group of young pickers (Jeremy Moses - banjo, Jason Bachus - mandolin, Jacob Durham - guitar, Matthew Nunnelley - bass) called 'Rained Out'...you will be hearing more from them! [Thanks to Kent Olson for the great shot of 'Rained Out'. Editor] And there are so many good young pickers and singers in the music now! Bluegrass music is in good hands!
I must say that it was really nice to see Mr. Curtis Burch, Sr. and Ms. Burch...they live close here in KY but the only time I see them is at Armuchee...Maybe Ricky and Curtis, Jr. can make it down next time!
And my thanks especially go to the Langleys and Farleys...they always welcome me with open arms (and even 'squirreled away' some bananna pudding for me)!
Armuchee is indeed a special place and festival...made moreso by all the great folks involved - from promoters to musicians to fans. I hope to see this go on for another thirty years!

"Not much excites you?!?" I was referring to my new coffee-door dvd recorder, decoder, etc etc…. In response to the expression of my husband was the usual between puzzled and compassionate. Let's say you get excited for a piece of sheet metal is not for everybody but I assure you that is exactly what happens to me when a new piece of design comes into the house! In fact, this comes as a library container sheet-bedside and in different sizes , However, the company has proved very helpful and changed my x measures and openings… this is the use that I did…..
This space had initially decided to use it for newspapers , then the option seemed too trivial and eventually I put the succulents!
The company that called ITALIAN ATMOSPHERE, and I bought it directly on their site; that's how the original version (among other things available in many colors).

Book Club- "Mindfulness & the Art of Drawing"8:50:00 AM
For online book club this month, I have been reading the book "Mindfulness & the Art of Drawing, A Creative Path to Awareness." By Wendy Ann Greenhalgh
If you are just joining us, this is the second book we have read in this virtual book club. Click here for the first book. Here is how the book club works:
For this book club I will select a book that embraces creativity in some form. After I read it I will share it with you here on the blog along with my thoughts and observations. I encourage you to also share your thoughts in the comment section below each post. Also feel free to leave book suggestions! The theme is creativity so????"Mindfulness & the Art of Drawing," is filled with great information about using various drawing techniques in such a way as to promote Mindfulness and creativity. It reads a little like a textbook, which makes sense considering Wendy is a creative mindfulness teacher by profession. She writes
with a combination of instruction, explanation, and personal experiences that make her method easy to follow. Throughout the book she has drawing exercises laid out for you to try. The exercises include Mindful Doodling, Drawing With Your Breath, Observational Drawings, and much more.
|Contour Line Drawing Exercise, "Direct Experiencing" Part 3 page 63
I found the book to be a little challenging to read, mostly because it was less conversational and more text book or instructional. I tend to prefer reading books with a more conversational tone. I did however find the book to be a great resource for tips and ideas on how to use drawing in my mindfulness practice. Mindfulness is a rather recent area of interest for me and I have been focusing heavily on Creative Mindfulness here in the studio and in my personal practice. Wendy is very Knowledgeable and I follow her online, which is where I first learned of her book. You can find her website here.
One of my favorite passages in the book:
Here Wendy is describing an experience she had when was drawing a rose, where she began to really see the rose.
"I was totally immersed in seeing that rose, and the marks I made were just an extension of this act of noticing and relating. The rose unfolded before my eyes, revealing under the continuing closeness of my attention even more aspects of itself, aspects that, of course, my usual cursory glance would never have noticed."I also enjoyed how she addressed one's inner critic. We all have them, and unfortunately as adults we tend to allow that critic to tell us frequently what we can not do. One of my passions here at the studio is to help people work through their inner critics through creative play. She talks about working through her own creative blocks sparked by the inner critic through mindfulness. I love that!
If you have read this book I would love to hear your thoughts, please leave a comment. If you would like to read this book you can order it here. Don't forget to come back and let me know what you thought!

THE number of race-related crimes in West Berkshire has risen by 40 per cent in the last year, according to worrying new police statistics.
Figures released by Thames Valley Police show there were 74 racist incidents where a crime was recorded in 2016/17, compared to 53 in 2015/16.
The figures also show the number of "racially or religiously aggravated crimes" rose by 33 per cent.
The previous year had seen a decrease in such incidents.
The jump is significantly higher than that seen across the rest of the Thames Valley, with the force area as a whole seeing an increase of 11.2 per cent in racist incidents.
The annual crime figures, released yesterday (Wednesday) show the number of crimes reported between April 2016 and March 2017.
Crime overall is on the increase in West Berkshire, with a rise of 7.8 per cent in 2016/17, following a drop in reported offences in 2015/16.
The district has also seen a significant rise (24.6 per cent) in reported rapes, for the third time in three years.
The number of sexual offences overall has risen by 21.2 per cent in the last year.
The Thames Valley as a whole saw an increase of 4.2 per cent.
Superintendent Jim Weems, Local Policing Area Commander for West Berkshire, said while overall reports of crime had risen, figures remained low per head of population.
He said: "Campaigns such as #Protectyourworld in the autumn and our February rural crime campaign are good examples of how we have raised awareness and confidence in our communities in reporting incidents to us.
"This raised awareness and confidence is reflected in the increases we have seen in reports of crime types such as sexual offences.
"Despite this increase, we know that this remains an under-reported crime and we are committed to encouraging people to come forward and report these incidents to us."

Hmm......a bit more education could see an improvement in your use of English . A classic example of a" tolerant" individual who is anything but tolerant of the opinion of others .

. . . and yet it is likely that the people of Newbury will re-elect a man belonging to a party that has cut 20,000 Police Officers since they came to power in 2010. Despite George Osbourne promising no cuts to Police budgets, if the Conservatives win the election reports predict a further 30,000 Police Officers will be cut taking numbers well below to those in the 1970s.

I am sure the people of Newbury are intelligent enough to weigh up and balance ALL the issues surrounding this country and not just react to leftist gossip and a number just picked from thin air with no basis whatsoever.
04/05/2017 - 21:09
Hi NewburyLad, Fullfact.org pegs the drop in Police Officers since 2010 to be 19,000 so I allowed myself 1,000 for dramatic effect. Government departments have been asked to prepare for budget cuts of between 25 - 45%, which is where the further 30,000 estimate is derived. On your scales, what balances that out?

Dear Colleagues, Students and Alumni,
Our university has, for the past 60 years, pioneered and represented an educational understanding that has led to the making of individuals who attach importance to individual, societal and universal values and development, who are qualified in creating and sustaining scientific, technological, cultural and environmental changes, and have internalized the principle of life-long learning, in addition to producing knowledge in a scientific sense and disseminating and using this knowledge in serving the public.
The work carried out in the areas of education, research and community services and the national/international awards received by the members of our university during the past year are significant indicators of the contribution we have made to science and to society. I also believe that these endeavors are meaningful and invaluable signs of the power we hold as scientists in our respective fields to transform the pessimism created by the recently intensifying terror events into hope by channeling our efforts towards producing for a better world. With such an understanding, with the same responsibility and enthusiasm, I believe that we will continue to contribute with our work in education and research in a vigorous, competent and decisive manner in the year 2017.
While wishing all METU members healthy, happy and successful days with their loved ones in the New Year, I hope 2017 will be a year of social unity and solidarity full of peace, love and hope both for our both country and the world.
With affection and respect,
Prof. Mustafa Verşan Kök

With higher energy prices causing distress on many low income homes in Minnesota, people are gathering information on how to get LIHEAP. LIHEAP or "Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program" is designed to help people of low income, those with disabilities, and the elderly to be able to pay their electric and heating oil bills. Often the groups of eligible recipients would struggle financially if they had to incur the complete cost of these ever growing bills. This welfare benefit program is partially funded by the Federal government, State government, corporate donations, and individual contributions.
The application process for LIHEAP is simple, however it is detailed. There are two ways that one can begin the application process. The first is applying online, and the second is using a standard paper application form. If somebody decides to apply online, they will merely just have to use the internet to complete the application. When the application is complete the submission process is as simple as pressing the submit button. Other people who do not have internet access or like their applications in writing will need to obtain a paper application form. This can be done by acquiring the address of your local LIHEAP office. Minnesota has many locations available, and if you would like to find one near your home, you can do so by calling 1-800-657-3710.
Once the application has been submitted, it will undergo a review process. During this process, the LIHEAP agents will measure the entire income level from every member of a household against a scale. They will also consider the disabilities and ages of the people in a home into the formula based scale. This will determine the amount of LIHEAP benefits that will be credited towards a person's electric or heating oil bills. The amount of credit will vary, but often covers a significant portion or the entire bill amount.
Since there are so many people applying for LIHEAP at this time in Minnesota, the review process may be slightly delayed. Please understand that the agents are working hard to process many applications and want to process yours as quickly as possible.

A family's exodus from Cairo to the New World
In Lucette Lagnado's memoirs, she takes us back to when she was a child, living in Cairo in the late 1950s. Like so many, her family was forced to leave because they were Jewish. They spent time as stateless refugees in Paris in the early 60s before arriving in the United States. This is not a success story of immigration to the land of the free, rather a riches to rags story where forced deportation and assimilation contribute to a painful story of lost identity.
