This organization shall be known as New Salem Missionary Baptist Church of Fruitland Park, Inc.
ARTICLE II – Baptist Articles of Faith
I. Of The Scriptures
We believe that the Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired, and is a perfect treasure of heavenly instruction; (1) that it has God for its author, salvation for its end, (2) and truth without any mixture of error, for its matter; (3) that it reveals the principles by which God will judge us; (4) and therefore is, and shall remain to the end of the world, the true center of Christian union, (5) and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds and opinions should be tried (II Timothy 3:16-17; Proverbs 30:5-6; II Peter 1:21).
II. Of the True God
We believe that there is one, and only one, living and eternal God, an infinite, intelligent Spirit, whose name is Jehovah, the Maker and Supreme Ruler of heaven and earth; (1) inexpressibly glorious in holiness, (2) and worthy of all possible honor, confidence, and love; (3) that in the unity of the Godhead there are three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; (4) equal in every divine perfection, (5) and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption (John 4:24; John 10:30; Mark 12:30; Matthew 28:19).
III. Of The Fall of Man
We believe that man was created in holiness, under the law of his Maker; (1) but by voluntary transgression fell from that holy and happy state; (2) in consequence of which all mankind are now sinners, (3) not by constraint, but choice; (4) being by nature utterly void of that holiness required by the law of God, positively inclined to evil; and therefore under just condemnation to eternal ruin, (5) without defense or excuse (Genesis 1:27; 3:6, 24; Romans 5:19).
IV. Of The Way of Salvation
We believe that the salvation of sinners is wholly of grace; (1) through the mediatorial offices of the Son of God; (2) who by the appointment of the Father, freely took upon Himself our nature, yet without sin; (3) honored the divine law by His personal obedience, (4) and by His death made a full atonement for our sins; (5) that having risen from the dead He is now enthroned in heaven; (6) and uniting in His wonderful person the tenderest sympathies with divine perfections, He is every way qualified to be a suitable, a compassionate, and an all-sufficient Saviour (Ephesians 2:8; John 3:16).
V. Of Justification
We believe that the great gospel blessing which Christ (1) secures to such as believe in Him is Justification; (2) that Justification includes the pardon of sin; (3) and the promise of eternal life on principles of righteousness; (4) that it is bestowed, not in consideration of any works of righteousness which we have done, but solely through faith in the Redeemer's blood; (5) by virtue of which faith His perfect righteousness is freely imputed to us of God, that it brings us into a state of most blessed peace and favor with God, and secures every other blessing needful for time and eternity (Acts 13:39; Romans 5:9).
VI. Of the Freeness Of Salvation
We believe that the blessings of salvation are made free to all by the gospel; (1) that it is the immediate duty of all to accept them by a cordial, penitent, and obedient faith; (2) and that nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner on earth but his own inherent depravity and voluntary rejection of the gospel; (3) which rejection involves him in an aggravated condemnation.
VII. Of Grace In Regeneration
We believe that, in order to be saved, sinners must be regenerated or born again; (1) that regeneration consists in giving a holy disposition to the mind; (2) that it is effected, in a manner above our comprehension, by the power of the Holy Spirit in connection with divine truth, (3) so as to secure our voluntary obedience to the gospel; (4) and that its proper evidence appears in the holy fruits of repentance and faith and newness of life (John 3:3; II Corinthians 5:17).
VIII. Of Repentance And Faith
We believe that Repentance and Faith are sacred duties, and also inseparable graces, wrought in our souls by the regenerating Spirit of God; (1) whereby, being deeply convinced of our guilt, danger, and helplessness, and of the way of salvation by Christ; (2) we turn to God with unfeigned contrition, confession, and supplication of mercy; (3) at the same time heartily receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as our Prophet, Priest, and King, and relying on Him alone as the only and all-sufficient Saviour (Mark 1:15; Ephesians 2:8).
IX. Of God's Purpose Of Grace
We believe that Election is the eternal purpose of God, according to which He graciously regenerates, sanctifies, and saves sinners; (1) that being perfectly consistent with the free agency of man, it comprehends all the means in connection with the end; (2) that it is a most glorious display of God's sovereign goodness, being infinitely free, wise, holy, and unchangeable; (3) that it utterly excludes boasting, and promotes humility, love, prayer, praise, trust in God, and active imitation of His free mercy; (4) that it encourages the use of means in the highest degree; (5) that it may be ascertained by its effects in all who truly believe the gospel; (6) that it is the foundation of Christian assurance; (7) and that to ascertain it with regard to ourselves demands and deserves the utmost diligence (II Timothy 1:8,9 II Thessalonians 2:13,14).
X. Of Sanctification
We believe that Sanctification is the process by which, according to the will of God, we are made partakers of His holiness; (1) that it is a progressive work; (2) that it is begun in regeneration; (3) and that it is carried on in the hearts of believers by the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, the Sealer and Comforter, in the continual use of the appointed means especially the word of God, self-examination, self-denial, watchfulness, and prayer (I Thessalonians 4:3; I John 2:29).
XI. Of the Perseverance Of Saints
We believe that such only are real believers as endure unto the end; (1) that their persevering attachment to Christ is the grand mark which distinguishes them from superficial professors; (2) that a special Providence watches over their welfare; (3) and that they are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation (John 8:31).
XII. Of The Harmony Of The Law And The Gospel
We believe that the Law of God is the eternal and unchangeable rule of His moral government; (1) that it is holy, just, and good; (2) and that the inability which the Scriptures ascribe to fallen men to fulfill its precepts arises entirely from their love of sin; (3) to deliver them from which, and to restore them through a Mediator to unfeigned obedience to the Holy Law, is one great end of the gospel, and of the means of grace connected with the establishment of the visible church (Romans 3:31; 7:12; 8:2-4).
XIII. Of A Gospel Church
We believe that a visible church of Christ is a congregation of baptized believers, (1) associated by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel; (2) observing the ordinances of Christ; (3) governed by His laws; (4) and exercising the gifts, rights, and privileges invested in them by His word; (5) that its only Scriptural officers are Bishops, or Pastors, and Deacons, (6) whose qualifications, claims, and duties are defined in the epistles to Timothy and Titus (I Corinthians 1:1-13).
XIV. Of Baptism And The Lord's Supper
We believe that Christian Baptism is the immersion in water of a believer, (1) into the name of the Father, and Son, and Holy Ghost; (2) to show forth, in a solemn and beautiful emblem, our faith in the crucified, buried, and risen Saviour, with its effect in our death to sin and resurrection to a new life; (3) that it is perquisite to the privileges of a church relation, and to the Lord's Supper; (4) in which the members of the church, by the sacred use of bread and wine are to commemorate together the dying love of Christ; (5) preceded always by solemn self examination (Acts 8:36-39; Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:3-5; I Corinthians 11:23-26; I Corinthians 11:28).
XV. Of The Christian Sabbath
We believe that the first day of the week is the Lord's Day, or Christian Sabbath; and is to be kept sacred to religious purposes, by abstaining from all secular labor and sinful recreation by the devout observance of all the means of grace both private and public; and by preparation for the rest that remaineth for the people of God (Acts 20:7; Hebrews 10:25).
XVI. Of Civil Government
We believe that civil government is of divine appointment, for the interests and good order of human society; and that magistrates are to be prayed for, conscientiously honored and obeyed, except only in things opposed to the will of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the only Lord of the conscience and the Price of the kings of the earth (Romans 13:1-7; Matthew 22:21).
XVII. Of the Righteous And The Wicked
We believe that there is a radical and essential difference between the righteous and the wicked; that such only as through faith are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and sanctified by the Spirit of our God, are truly righteous in His esteem; while all such as continue in impenitence and unbelief are in His sight wicked, and under the curse; and this distinction holds among men, both in and after death (Malachi 3:18; Romans 1:17; Proverbs 14:32).
XVII. Of Christian Education
We believe that Christianity is the religion of enlightenment and intelligence. In Jesus Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. All sound learning is therefore a part of our Christian heritage. The new birth opens all human faculties and creates a thirst for knowledge. An adequate system of schools is necessary to a complete spiritual program for Christ's people. The cause of education in the Kingdom of Christ is coordinate with the causes of missions and general benevolence, and should receive along with these the liberal support of the churches.
XVIII. Of Social Service
We believe that every Christian is under obligation to seek to make the will of Christ regnant in his own life and in human society; to oppose in the Spirit of Christ every form of greed, selfishness and vice; to provide for the orphaned, the aged, the helpless, and the sick; to seek to bring industry, government and society as a whole under the sway of the principles of righteousness, truth and brotherly love; to promote these ends Christians should be ready to work with all men of good will in any good cause, always being careful to act in the spirit of love without compromising their loyalty to Christ and his truth. All means and methods used in social service for the amelioration of society and the establishment of righteous among men must finally depend on the regeneration of the individual by the saving grace of God in Christ Jesus.
XIX. Of Stewardship
We believe that God is the source of all blessings, temporal and spiritual; all that we have and are we owe to him. We have a spiritual debtorship to the whole world, a holy trusteeship in the gospel, and a binding stewardship in our possessions. We are therefore under obligation to serve him with our time, talents and material possessions; and should recognize all these as entrusted to us to use for the glory of God and helping others. Christians should cheerfully, regularly, systematically, proportionately and liberally contribute of their means to advancing the Redeemer's cause on earth.
XX. Of Evangelism and Mission
We believe that it is the duty of every Christian man and woman, and the duty of every church of Christ to seek to extend the gospel to the ends of the earth. The new birth of man's spirit by God's Holy Spirit means the birth of love for others. Missionary effort on the part of all rests thusly upon a spiritual necessity of the regenerate life. It is also expressly and repeatedly commanded in the teachings of Christ. It is the duty of every child of God to seek constantly to win the lost to Christ by personal effort and by all other methods sanctioned by the gospel of Christ.
XXII. Of the Resurrection
We believe that the Scriptures clearly teach that Jesus rose from the dead. His believe that the Scriptures clearly teach that Jesus rose from the dead. His grave was emptied of its contents. He appeared to the disciples after his resurrection in many convincing manifestations. He now exists in his glorified body at God's right hand. There will be a resurrection of the righteous and the wicked. The bodies of the righteous will conform to the glorious spiritual body of Jesus.
XXIII. Of the Return of the Lord
We believe that the New Testament teaches in many places the visible and personal return of Jesus to this earth. "The same Jesus which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." The time of his coming is not revealed. "Of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only" (Matthew 24:36). It is the duty of all believers to live in readiness for his coming and by diligence in good works to make manifest to all men the reality and power of their hope in Christ.
XXIV. Of The world To Come
We believe that the end of this world is approaching; that in the last day Christ will descend from heaven, and raise the dead from the grave to final retribution; that a solemn separation will then take place; that the wicked will be adjudged to endless punishment, and the righteous to endless joy; and that this Judgment will fix forever the final state of men in heaven or hell, on principles of righteousness (I Peter 4:7; acts 24:15; Matthew 25:31-46).
ARTICLE III – Church Covenant
The Church Covenant shall be the same as printed in The New National Baptist Hymnal
ARTICLE IV – The Baptist Character
Section 1. Polity.
The government of this church is vested in the body of believers who compose it. It is subject to the control of no other ecclesiastical body, but it recognizes and sustains the obligations of mutual counsel and cooperation which are common among Baptist Churches. It shall be the policy of the church to the fullest possible extent consistent with the independent character of the Baptist Church to support all missionary and benevolent undertakings of the National Baptist Convention USA, Inc., the Florida General Baptist Convention and the Bethel District Baptist Association, to whose doctrinal and missionary baptist beliefs we declare our allegiance.
Section 2. Doctrine
This church receives the Scriptures as its authority in matters of faith and practice. Its understanding of Christian truth as contained therein is in essential accord with the belief of the Baptist Churches as indicated in the Articles of Faith herewith.
Section 3.
The Baptist Standard Church Directory and Busy Pastor's Guide of the National Baptist Convention USA, Inc., shall be the standards that this church shall observe.
Section 4. Doctrinal Beliefs.
We further believe in a regenerated church membership and that the conversion experience is a prerequisite to church membership
In the New Testament the candidate was taken to the water, not the water brought to the candidate; the candidate was placed in the water, not the water put on the candidate; so we believe in immersion only as answering Christ's command of baptism and symbolizing the heart of the gospel message–His death, burial, and resurrection
We further believe in the New Testament order of Baptism and the Lord's Supper. The New Testament Christians were baptized before taking the Lord's Supper.
We further believe in the right of each member of the church to a voice in its government, plans and discipline
We further believe in the freedom of the individual conscience; in the voluntary principle, not the coercive principle, in religion
We further believe in the total independence and separation of church and state
We further believe in God's Tithing Plan of financing the church according to the Scriptures, and that every member should be obedient to the Scripture and tithe

(4) Members who willfully absent themselves from regular meetings and services of the church for a period of three (3) months will be sent a letter asking them to show satisfactory reasons for their absence. The letter will indicate a deadline for a timely response.

A pulpit committee consisting of at least three members shall be appointed by the church to seek out a suitable pastor, and their recommendation shall constitute a nomination.

In the event of an internal disagreement between the pastor and the church, where the local moderator is asked to sit in, said moderator shall sit in with the understanding he is not there to render any judgment; his most important part will be to maintain order.
Section 5. Filling Vacancies
Whenever there shall be a vacancy in the office of pastor, the church shall, upon recommendation of the pulpit committee (Pastor Selection Committee) without unnecessary delay invite to its pastorate some National Baptist Minister of good repute and training, provided at least a majority of the members present and voting at any meeting, notice of which shall have been given in accordance with these By Laws

Licensed Preachers
Baptist churches have an age long custom whereby they grant license or a certificate of approval to those whom they believe have been called to the gospel ministry, but who for some reason are not ready at the time to be ordained; who may be either pursuing a special theological course or waiting the call of some church or special field of labor. This does not impart any special ministerial rights to the recipient, but simply expresses the convictions of the church that he is called to the work. The license may be revoked at any time by a vote of the church granting them.
Granting Licenses
Whenever the pastor and members of a church have the opinion that one of their members is called to the work of the ministry, they should appoint a time in which to hear him, and if they still approve of his gifts, the matter of licensing him should be brought before the church at a regular meeting, voted upon and entered in the records of the church of reference. The church shall give to him a written or printed certificate signed by the pastor and clerk. Persons thus licensed are not privileged to perform marriage ceremonies, to baptize, nor to administer the Lord's Supper.
Ordaining a Minister of the Gospel
The pastor approaches the moderator about a particular candidate. The moderator contacts the Examining Council. The council meets with the candidate. The council will bring back a report to the pastor and the moderator. If the report is positive, the church holds a public ordination service.
Ordination Program
1. Devotional exercise
2. Ordination sermon by a minister chosen by the council
3. Ordination prayer, during which hands are placed on the head of the candidate
4. Presentation of the Bible by a minister selected for the occasion
5. After appropriate remarks, the hand of fellowship is extended by fellow ministers, and a written or printed certificate of ordination containing the names of the ordained ministers composing the council, and signed officially by the chairman and secretary, shall be given to him.
Section 1. The number of deacons, elections, terms of service.
(1) The number of deacons elected shall be determined by the church according to the need, by using the ratio of one deacon per set number of families, as recommended by the pastor. Deacons should be elected according to the qualifications outlined in 1st Timothy 3:8-13. Deacons serve the church, therefore the entire church should be given an opportunity to nominate persons to be elected and ordained as deacons. Tenure shall depend on their service being satisfactory and acceptable to the church.
(2) Deacons are servant leaders. A servant leader is one who sees the needs of people and sets out to meet some of those needs. Deacons exert positive influence as they demonstrate deep commitment to God and the church. Faith leads deacons to develop healthy dreams for their churches. Deacons should be visionaries, serving and leading with
perseverance and enthusiasm.
(3) The chairman of deacons shall be elected by the deacons. The church is under no obligation to call to active service a brother who comes to the church from another church where he has served as a deacon. The behavior of deacons, active or not has a positive or negative influence on every other deacon, the church, and the kingdom of God. Additional deacons will be added by recommendation of the church following an extensive course on the deaconship and the church.
(4) A deacon may surrender his deaconship as a matter of choice. It is not proper for deacons to hold a meeting as a "board of deacons," independent of and without the consent of the pastor. The church shall promote to honorary life membership any deacon who by reason of age and or infirmities, after honorable service, is no longer able to render active service.
Section 2. Duties.
The first major premise in a deacon's work is this: there are no duties in the scriptures specifically and exclusively assigned to the deacon. There are things which church custom and tradition assign to the deacons, but these are not scripturally assigned, deacons are really expected to do anything that the church desires of them.
(1) Deacons shall constitute a liaison between the ministries of the church.
(2) Effective leadership begins with character. Deacons are servant leaders. Deacons exert positive influence as they demonstrate deep commitment to God and to the church. Faith leads deacons to develop healthy dreams for their churches. Pastors and deacons share the task of leading the congregation to develop a vision for the church. Perseverance and enthusiasm within deacons impart excitement among the congregation.
(3) Deacons shall assist the pastor in leading the church in tithing according to the scripture. Deacons shall advise and confer with the pastor in all matters pertaining to the welfare and work of the church.
(4) Deacons are to proclaim the gospel to believers and unbelievers, care for the church's members and other persons in the community, build Christian fellowship among church members, assist in administering ordinances and serve as model Christian leaders.
(5) The local church, by varied processes and under trained lay leaders, must produce a disciplined body of believers.
(6) In the absence or inability of the pastor, subject to advice from and conference with him, the deacons will provide for pulpit supplies. In any period, when the church is without a pastor, unless the church shall otherwise provide, the deacons will conduct temporary ministry and take counsel with reference to securing a pastor. The deacons shall not act any way to, or try to replace the pulpit selection committee.
Section 3. Method of procedure.
(1) The deacons shall be organized as a unit for the consideration of all larger problems and general policies, and shall meet regularly. All deacon meetings must be held at the church. Special meetings may be called by the chairman with consent from the pastor. In the absence of a pastor all meetings will be called by the chairman.
(2) Each deacon shall freely confer with the pastor about all matters and cases of discipline which in his judgment would not be most wisely and spiritually handled in private.
Nominating Committee
The nominating committee shall consist of tithing members elected by the church. This committee shall communicate with members already holding offices and those being considered for offices before presenting their recommendations to the pastor. The nominating committee shall present their recommendations at the business meeting which has the election of officers on its agenda.
Section 1. The Number of Trustees, Elections, Terms of Service
(1) The number of trustees shall be no less than 3 and no more than 7. The number to be elected shall be determined by the church upon recommendation of the pastor according to the need.
(2) Trustees must be tithing members of the church and be elected for one year. They may be re-elected pending pastoral recommendation. Their tenure of service shall be determined by satisfaction rendered, desire to surrender the position, removal to point of inaccessibility, or cessation of membership in the church.
(3) A trustee must have some business skill that would benefit some phase in the work of the church
(4) The pastor will play a central role in trustee meetings by developing the board agenda in consent with the chairman, by making timely and relevant presentations, and by participating fully in discussions; however, he shall have no vote
Section 2. Duties
(1) To represent the church in all legal matters
(2) To assess the financial condition of the church
(3) To prepare and present an annual proposed budget to the church based on projected income and expenses
(4) To be responsible for the maintenance of all church properties
(5) To make recommendations as to the future needs of the church
(6) To complete items approved by the church as they are stated. If this cannot be achieved then a called meeting with the church will be held to discuss the matter before further action is taken.
Church Clerk
In the absence of a recording secretary or church clerk, one shall perform the duties of both offices. The clerk of the church shall maintain permanent records of membership, showing additions and subtractions after proper church action. He/she shall keep a register of the names of members, with dates of admissions, dismissals, or death, together with a record of baptisms. He/she shall prepare all resolutions for funerals. The clerk shall make monthly reports reflecting the number of new members. The clerk shall consider it a part of his responsibility to promote loyalty and efficiency in church life.
(1) Shall issue all letters of dismissal
(2) Shall initiate requests for letters of new candidates for membership
(3) Shall take minutes of any church business meeting and keep the minutes book

The Joe Foote Interviews
This exhibit features a series of 4 annotated and tagged interviews with Carl Albert and Joe Foote. The Carl Albert Center Congressional Archives acquired the interviews in 2015 as part of the Joe Foote Collection.
Joe Foote served as Speaker Carl Albert's press secretary from 1972 to 1976. As press secretary, Foote's role was loosely defined. He mostly acted as a liaison with the press, though he also became invaluable during the dramatic shifts in the executive branch which placed Albert next in line for president twice. Notable events during Foote's time as Press Secretary include the investigation and resignation of Vice President Spiro T. Agnew, the Watergate Scandal, the resignation of President Richard Nixon, and the Vietnam War.Pictured above (L-R): Joel Jankowsky, Carl Albert, and Joe Foote(Carl Albert Collection, Photographs, Item 2138, Carl Albert Center Congressional Archives)

Gotta admit, I suck at blogs and such. I'll get half way through a post, and I'll just wanna get over and done with and I'll not add half of the stuff I wanted to… like with my Dragon Age II review… so much more I wanted to say in that but didn't. Ah well…heh.
And now, that I'm ready to post something long and involved I cant remember what I wanted to say, story of my life?… Nah, not really. Maybe its just because I'm getting distracted by a full grown cat still trying to feed off its mother while its younger siblings does… yes, it does look as horrible as it sounds.
I should really post more, but I really cant be bothered heh…

The winter holidays are a great time to reconnect with customers and clients. Even if you have not done business with them in a while, take this opportunity to get your name and brand information in front of consumers' eyes again with holiday promotional gifts. Your holiday gift does not have to be ostentatious. In fact, the best holiday gifts are functional and suitable for use year-round.
The Best Holiday Promotional Gifts Keep on Giving
Depending on your business, a nice bottle of wine can be an excellent option when sending a gift to attorneys, doctors, or similar service providers. Food is also a good option when you have a close working relationship with the recipients. When sent to an office, a food gift invites sharing, which exposes office staff and others to your brand too.
Of course, the downside of great food and wine gifts is limited shelf life. Once the recipient has enjoyed the product, only your card remains. If you want something that he or she will use year-round, you have numerous options.
Why not combine a food gift with a durable bamboo chopping board that will be useful year-round? This gift features beef summer sausage, gourmet water crackers, and mild cheddar cheese. A complimentary knife completes the setup. This is a great gift to send to an office.
Holiday Combo Power Bank and Pen
When you need an executive gift, this faux leather portfolio and pen fits the bill. Envision your name and logo embossed on the front. The versatility that the product offers ensures continued use.
For a gift your customers will use at home, this copper-colored plated stainless steel cup is excellent. Your client may also choose to keep it at the office as a personal mug. It looks elegant and features your corporate information as a colorful counterpoint to the attractive color.
For the gift recipient who is more of a drinking glass type, this combination is a good choice. It features stainless steel ice cubes, which are a novelty item. Even so, they are sure to get the attention of the recipient, who will look forward to trying them out. This is another gift he or she may keep at the office or at home for personal use year-round.
The combination of a plaid faux lambs' wool blanket with a stainless steel tumbler is excellent to commemorate a winter holiday. Because this is a practical gift combination, your customer will appreciate using it for years to come.
Finding the Gifts That Are Right for Your Business
At ad cetera, inc., we do more than just sell pens. (Although we do that too.) We routinely work with business owners just like you to help them find the best holiday promotional gifts for their clients. Contact us today to learn more.

|Subject: More "Branches" .vs. "Roots"
|From: Veronica
|Date: 21/3/14 10:28 pm
|To: undisclosed-recipients:;
1. Root = "You have no authority over me. You have no right to demand anything from me. I am not your slave. I am under no obligation to pay you any forfeit"Get the difference?
(2. Also FUN, anyway!!! A "Branch" would be OK ... as a method of having FUN! Just as long as it doesn't distract too much ... such that you might lose focus.
"Branch" would be = "I'm withholding in protest that you send 1/3 of it to the EU. I'm withholding it because I disagree about funding wars overseas ... etc ... yada ... yada ... yada. In other words, "all the activist reasons", which don't go to the Root)

I spent the majority of my childhood doing road trips. With four kids, we drove everywhere. We never flew. Keep in mind, we drove to Texas most of the time, from California. Needless to say, when I got older and was in charge of my finances, I chose to fly. However, flying comes with it's own cons.
The people, the security, the delayed flights, the horrible food, etc. Here are some things I do before a flight.
- Save Your Music: Spotify and other music sharing apps, allow you to save your music offline. You need to do this at home first, as it may take a few hours. That way, you have music available, just in case you are in an airport for too long or there is nothing to your liking on the inflight menu.
- Give Yourself A Facial Before The Flight: Flying, especially long distances, can be exhausting and taxing on your face. Show your skin some TLC before your flight.
- Eat: I forget to do this. But it's important to eat something before your flight. This will keep you calm while dealing with all the airport personal.
- Buy Water: after you pass through security, buy a water bottle or bring an empty bottle and fill it up. If you are like me, and get dry mouth, you need water. The small water cups they give you on the plane just won't cut it. Also, it's great to have some water with you when you land.
- Pack Your Comfort Level: if I am taking a red eye flight or flying to another country, I make sure my carry on bag has a few items to keep me comfortable. That means, facial wipes, a brush, lip balm, water, deodorant, and sometimes a change of clothes. I know if I am not physically comfortable, I will be testy.
Traveling should be fun and not stressful. The flight is the most stressful part, however with these tips and knowing your comfort level, you can control these stresses. Safe travels.
Hugs and Smiles,

Become a Big Brother or Big Sister!
You have often heard me tell stories about how much fun I have out with my Little Sister (aka Little) from the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. Today I want to take a few minutes to tell you more about the program and hope that I can convince just a few of you to become "Bigs."
The program is different for every single Big. Because no two kids are the same, no two Bigs are the same. First thing to know, adults are called Bigs, and our kids are called Littles. No need to specify that you are a "Big Sister" or you have a "Little Sister." Your gender explains it all. So we just say "Big."
This is a volunteer program that only asks four hours a month of you. (If you are like me and choose to spend closer to 4 hours a week with your kid, that's just fine, and totally up to you!) You are "matched" by the Big Brothers Big Sisters professional staff based on all sorts of criteria. They want to make sure both you and your kid are getting the best possible experience. I can say that my Little and I are perfectly matched. We get along wonderfully. Her mother and I joke around frequently that Little may look just like her mother, but in many ways, she is become a little me. (Yikes!)
You get to pick, with your Little, how you will spend your time together, where, when, etc. My Little and I prefer Monday afternoons and every Real Salt Lake home game. Every "match" is different, and that is the beauty of it! You get to do what it is you two like to do!
One of the most remarkable and enjoyable parts of being a Big is the unfiltered love and adoration your Little grows to have for you. I live for the hugs and sweet little comments my kiddo gives me. And most of the time she has no idea she has said anything that has melted my heart. Recently she told me something that was actually fairly trivial, but it showed character that she chose not to do it. She told me, "I thought how I wouldn't be able to tell you about it, so I didn't do it." Can I just tell you I nearly cried right there in the car? I had to just smile and tell her I was proud of her. But really, I wanted to jump for joy and cry at the same time. (To her mother who will be reading this- honestly, I have no idea what it even was now. It was that trivial! It may have been not doing all of her homework, but really, that doesn't sound like her does it?)
Big Brothers Big Sisters is ALWAYS looking for more Bigs. (they are also always taking in more kiddos!) If you are interested in becoming a Big, research them at www.bbbs.org. You might be surprised at what a difference you can make in a child's life.
If you aren't currently available to become a Big, consider making a donation, whether cash or clothing, to your local branch! Or if your business has tickets to local events, or any sort of contributions to activities that may be of interest to Bigs and Littles (ahem- Real Salt Lake tickets!), contact them!!
Also, for you young professionals out there, whether or not you are interested in becoming a Big, check out the Big Alliance. The Big A is dedicated to supporting BBBS in various capacities from fundraisers to activities or just networking. I'm a member of our local chapter, and I must say- its a lot of fun!

Dr. Simone Krüger Bridge
Music in Neoliberal Culture
SMG Sektion Bern
This paper explores the notion that neoliberal capitalism is cool capitalism.The ideology of cool has become the focal point of popular culture globally, influencing a diverse range of contemporary trends and fields from music, food, and fashion, to technology and cinema. Coolness has become an incredibly powerful concept within the music business. It is a universal motivator for teens and youths, as well as for a large range of other age groups.The cool culture of neoliberal capitalism is clearly evident in the branding processes surrounding the "cool celebrity personae", relevant to which is artists' resilience to contemporary forms of patriarchy presented in much contemporary world popular music. This paper will explore coolness through the notions of cool masculinity and postfeminism in world popular music. A range of musical examples, from Jazz and Hip Hop,World Music, to Lady Gaga and Beyonce will help to illustrate the coolness of neoliberal capitalism today.

Book Summary:
The thrilling conclusion to In the After, the survival story of Amy and Baby, set in a near future where Earth has been overrun by vicious, predatory creatures. Perfect for fans of New York Times bestsellers like The 5th Wave and Across the Universe.
It's been three months since Amy escaped New Hope, and she's been surviving on her own. Then one day Amy gets a call from Kay and hears the four words she had hoped she would never hear: Dr. Reynolds has Baby. Now it's a race against time, for Baby is in imminent danger, her life threatened by the malevolent doctor who had helped start the end of the world. Amy must make her way to Fort Black, a prison turned survivor colony, where she will need to find Ken, Kay's brother, who holds the key to Baby's survival.
One small slipup on this quest might not only cost Baby and Amy their lives but could also threaten the survival of the people in the After
My Thoughts:
If you haven't read the first book, In the After, then you need to get on it! I read it back in December and pre-ordered this book as soon as the pre-order went up. The first book was creepy, but it held my attention to the point where I could not put it down. Seriously–I even took it to my family Christmas because I was that into the story. If you like creepy survival stories, then this is for you. It isn't a survival story where you even wonder how the heck the girl survives–she's actually smart and knows what she is doing. Great great book…do yourself a favor and read In the After so that you can pick this one up when it releases on the 24th.

Find Your Low Cost Medicare Plan Today!
Medicare Supplement Rates - Why Some Companies Increase So Much
Medicare Supplement Rates are very competitive these days. Many Medicare Supplement Insurance companies are vying for business, and will do almost anything go have the lowest Medigap insurance rates. One thing you must watch out for, however, is that many insurance companies can have "fake" low rates. What we mean by this, is that some companies start out by offering very low Medicare Supplement Rates, then increase their rates very often, and by a high percentage, quickly becoming very expensive.
Some Medigap insurance companies will include all sorts of special discounts initially, however they will remove those discounts over time. One company in particular will start out by giving you a 30% discount when turning 65, then reduce that discount by 3% every year until it is completely removed (after 10 years total). This is in addition to your annual / semi-annual rate increase due to medical inflation. If you do not do your research before purchasing a Medicare Supplement Plan, you could have extremely high Medicare supplement rates after a very short period of time.
One of the best things to do to ensure that your Medicare Supplement Rate will stay stable for a long period of time is to contact an insurance broker who represents multiple companies, and can give you unbiased advise on which companies tend to remain more stable in your area, and a broker who con compare all prices for you. Many times, individuals will speak with a direct representative of only a specific company who will obviously be biased and may not tell the complete truth about their pricing strategy.
Initial sign-up discounts is one form of marketing that some large companies will use. We believe these to be an unrealistic measure of what the true rate will really be. Selecting a company that does not offer any special discounts, and have a strong financial rating by A.M. Best will help you to determine the long-term stability of your Medicare Supplement Insurance company.
There are also three pricing methods used by Medicare Supplement Insurance companies today, and those are Attained Age, Issue Age, and Community Rates. Attained Age simply means that your insurance policy will be primarily based on the age you are every year (your attained age). The second pricing method is Issue Age, and this simply means that your insurance policy will be primarily based on the age you were when you first signed up for the policy. The third pricing strategy is Community Rating--this will mean that the same rate is given to an entire community. There will be no difference as to gender, health, or tobacco usage--everyone gets the same rate. It is extremely important to understand, however, that in ANY pricing strategy, they all will receive rate increases due to Medical Inflation, claims experience, etc. There is no pricing strategy deployed by Medigap companies that will guarantee your rate forever--all companies take price increases.
Generally, regardless of the pricing strategy used by Medicare Medigap companies in your area, we usually recommend that you go with the company with a combination of strong financial rating and low prices--regardless of pricing method used. This will ensure that you have one of the lowest Medigap supplement rates in your area.

Press release from PDVSA
Caracas, March 12, 2018.- At the Foundational Summit of the International Solar Alliance, held in New Delhi, India, Venezuela announced an initiative to finance solar energy projects through the national cryptocurrency, El Petro.
This is Petrocaribe Solar, a proposal conceived by the president, Nicolás Maduro, which will have the logistics and capabilities of the Petrocaribe Energy Cooperation Agreement. In this regard, the Minister of Popular Power for Foreign Affairs, Jorge Arreaza, indicated that Latin America, Venezuela and the Caribbean will be covered.
Arreaza said that Venezuela has a great responsibility to develop solar energy despite being an oil-producing country by nature. "The socialist ethic indicates that we have to develop new types of clean, renewable energies and especially solar energy in this area of the world, where the tropics we share in the south are found, especially in Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa."
Finally, Chancellor Arreaza, accompanied by the Minister of Petroleum, Manuel Quevedo and the Minister of Foreign Trade, José Vielma Mora, assured that solar energy depends on the future of the world and that we can not continue to depend on fossil energy.
The Foundational Summit of the International Solar Alliance is aimed at the 121 countries with the highest solar exposure, located in the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, with the aim of addressing needs related to the issue of energy and energy gaps between countries.
In this first edition attended by representatives of 62 nations among which highlights the presence of the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, its main promoter.

Fair Taxes
By a happy coincidence this morning the sun shone on Yarm, Stockton Lib Dems went out to talk about Fair Taxes there while Vince Cable and Nick Clegg launched the policy in a press conference. We'd have happily shared the sunshine with them!
Jacquie Bell was interviewed by local radio for their constituency profile and then we got on with sharing the good news of our policy. It certainly had a good reception but there were other policies which people wanted to discuss. What were we going to do about stabilising the energy supply in a sustainable way in this country? What are our views on Preston Park and the school controversy? (much easier to answer that one simply - we need a new school building in Eaglescliffe and we need more school places easily accessible for the young people of Ingleby Barwick.) What are we going to do for pensioners? And so on. All good points to discuss and there was a sense that some people at least in this election are going to vote after listening to policies and deciding between them.

I see you've done that in your answer. Yesterday I passed almost all day trying to analyze it, but I have to say that I can't even find witch of my rules throws the error message... :( The message What you need to to is to look at the Remote Loader trace, before the error there it should be a document with all attributes.

The problem was with the type of entity I was trying to match, in AD an User is called an inetOrgPerson so it couldn't work. Also the "objectCategory" should be in the form of the distinguished name (Of the person object), but I don't think it's necessary to set that one either. A positive integer gets reduced by 9 times when one of its digits is deleted....

The user principal name should be in a format like [email protected] while the distinguished name is essentially the LDAP path to the object, such as cn=someUser,ou=someOU,dc=domain,dc=local. I am not 100% certain if it is related to the upgrade, but that is the only thing that has changed.
That is why you should use the dirxml-uACDontExpirePassword, dirxml-uACAccountDisable and dirxml-uACPasswordNotRequired to set specific bits within userAccountControl. First I worked backwards (using the event ID) from the status event which contained the error message By doing this, I could determine the event that was sent to the remote Isn't that more expensive than an elevated system?

That night I had heard Lazarus watching My Little Pony as usual and singing like all the bad youtube videos which feature it. I had sat next to him once just to watch it and it just gave me a wave of nostalgia, since the creator had been the one who worked with the Powerpuff Girls, which I had discussed with Dick once and he replied that he has a hunch that Buttercup is a trans man and I just nodded, thinking of that conclusion myself.
We do have fights and usually they're between the same people that being Nathan and Julien. For some reason every time Julien would open the door and call out for the older man to get his pizza, that would end up with bruised noses and the only person who would stand up to them would be Peter with the sole fact that he wouldn't want anything bloody on the carpets, but until blood starts gushing no one else really cares. The last fight started out and dragged from the staircase into the corridor, with the pizza lying forgotten and Dick not spitting into it for once. Instead both him and his boyfriend headed out of their room to look at the fight. The boyfriend now graced our apartment every time with a t-shirt which had said "down with cis" which was clearly a really bad joke and meme, but the guy found it somehow something to take to heart and he had worn it to us, while glaring at me. Maybe he had some stashed jealousy because Dick had started talking to me sometimes and he had asked me to check out the back of his head when he was trimming it once. Was that intimate enough?
I didn't think so, but apparently that had been enough for the said boyfriend to wear a "down with cis" t-shirt print, it was a pink shirt with the letters in black and I was offended that it didn't come with comic sans, but alas nothing can be true perfection. Nathan and Julien kept beating each other up with Peter screaming that no blood should go on the camel coloured carpets which graced the entire apartment, uniting it with some camel bond, maybe we were all lost camels wondering in the desert of life in this apartment.
When it came to family, with enough pestering Dick had told me about the rest and told me that he wasn't in any speaking terms, due to his transition and same for his boyfriend and this was uttered as the other boyfriend was drinking coffee. Dick just scratched his neck, widening his eyes at his boyfriend, probably mentioning that he should be nicer to the other flatmates, since we were all like a fucked up family now and until we would find something else we would be entirely stuck together. His boyfriend didn't talk to his family either and the shirt just seemed to justify that fact in my head. Peter actually kept in touch with his entire family and now I recalled that I had seen his mom once and they were both smoking in the kitchen together, gossiping about something.
Julien never spoke of his family so both me and Dick assumed that there was surely some bone to pick there, but we kept it as such, both holding some silence as if assuming that either of us will find out and then tell the other. I didn't even notice until now properly that me and Dick had managed to talk actually quite a lot and gossip about the rest and I presumed Julien and Nathan would gossip, since sometimes they would pick up their laundry together. I just assumed that Nathan had talked to Julien for the sole fact that he was interested in young men still and that was what drove their friendship, but Julien perhaps was too straight to care or even notice the older man's endeavors towards him. He would try to talk of his army experience to Julien, but the younger man had none of it and would just excuse himself to eat some jam. Even I would listen to for the fuck.
Frank still kept in touch with his family, even if every single time he would call them you would hear angry screeching on the phone on how they had regretted that he had gotten his ex-wife pregnant, make note that Frank is 21 and already divorced and with a child.
The days went on and I couldn't force myself to start looking for a job as I had seen Frank rapidly reject interviews and that made me wonder if I even wanted to go through the same process, but I was in the pile where I had no experience and I had no idea what would anyone ask of me and what joy would I even bring to any company's table. I knew that sooner or later my money would run out, but until it would start tipping the sand watch significantly I had no intentions of doing so.
Nathan had actually decided to talk to me and that was just once, when some religious folk had decided that it was more than enough of a household to choose, he had called out my name and started screaming how they should talk to another gay in the house, who wasn't him. They had started talking on how much the country had sinned, that we were damned and that they believed that this was a normal household and were thankful that the older man had chosen me to listen to them, that I would soon be on God's path even if I was a filthy sinner for being gay. I had to stand there and listen to them, just picturing Julien and Nathan's bloody fight earlier, as they both had to scrub the blood out with toothbrushes because that was the choice of weapon which Peter had assigned for them, since they weren't his mate Frank. So I kept listening and listening and they kept talking and talking even if my head was already on the door frame and I couldn't stand listening any longer. That's when they left, with giving me a free book on how to save myself on judgement day (hide from the meteors for instance).
I had no idea what to do with the book other than to give it to Lazarus, who had an extensive book collection of first edition of Dickens for some reason, which he would mainly acquire when he travelled to the UK for no particular to me reason because he hadn't told me until I was actually writing this and apparently as he was growing up his father had read Dickens to him back when he was small. That was the sole reason and that had built enough love in his chest. I had a teacher who couldn't stand Dickens and confessed that to me when I was struggling with him, that some people just have authors they cannot stand and apparently we both shared that with Dickens. Lazarus was curious about my small notebook where I scribble all of this and he eased down once I told him that the names were altered, he doesn't care about the actions, because of all the rest, he had stated, he is the most noble and even said that I can ever quote him on that. After that we proceeded to watch Pewdiepie videos which reminded me of a laughing Julien last night to the same recently uploaded videos I could hear across the corridor.
I had seen Julien the next day in Gamla Stan buying Le Monde and that's how I had found out that he knew French and then I had asked him if he was French, because I couldn't really tell it by his accent. We ended up walking around and the man had said that it should be fun to play hide and seek here, to which I was surprised and my first reaction was fear that I'd be searching for him as if in an endless labyrinth until the dawn and then I would simply not find him or end up finding Lazarus instead in an antique store. By the end of it we had agreed and it had taken me twenty minutes to find the other man sitting on some footsteps next to the church, so that hadn't been as hard. The problem was that when I was hiding, I had the fear that I should go somewhere and hide properly, but instead I didn't. I just sat on one of the benches near the big staircase and waited for him to find me eventually. So I just kept writing in the notebook, now I actually bother and try to write down what is happening, because they say once you start a journal, that's when things start happening and I wouldn't mind a change.
I'm deeply sorry for taking so long to update and I've frankly vanished from earth's surface as I actually came out to one family member. It wasn't taken well. It gets discussed deeply more in the story as I came out and that wasn't recieved very well, if to be deadly honest. I needed time for myself and to be a punching bag apparently.
It's also been hard fighting with depression, because I've been so drained from everything.
It was a nightmare to get the story going, so I would get brainstorming with Callie as she would ask me questions and I would just play a Sonic racing game, I actually deeply miss that. I've also been pondering and I'd like to announce that I think I'll dedicate December and so on to the animal, so I hope you've been enjoying it so far. I also want to stay with fiction for a while, so I'll be writing that unless my mood changes.
Peter is based off every single landlord I've had and is blown up to be a very realistic douche.
I've been pissed off at the tumblr's reaction to many things so Dick's boyfriend is a sort of embodiment of that.
I've actually desperately started missing the animal since I finished it along with Nano and I can proudly say that it's my 5th Nanowrimo win.
The chapter is a tad bit shorter because the next two paragraphs should go together really xD I'm sorry that there's not much backstory, because all of this was written in a very big hurry and yeah.
I really really hope you enjoyed it and if you did, please tell me so in the comments below.
