When I had the privilege of hearing Jo-Anne McArther speak one year at the Voiceless Awards I was blown away. She encompassed a true sense of purpose, knowledge, compassion and humbleness - despite her list of many accomplishments. My husband and I looked to each other at the end of her speech and shared a moment of hope and inspiration. She had moved the entire room by sharing her message with raw courage and truth, just as she does, in the same manner, when she captures her photographic "invisible subjects" - the animals without a voice; those who we eat, we experiment on and are entertained by. Jo-Anne is the photo-journalist behind We Animals, an incredibly powerful and invaluable resource to us all, through which Jo-Anne documents animals whom are enslaved or have been freed from enslavement, as well as the activists who help with this, and shares these images and the stories that go with them to countless organisations, magazines, campaigns and, she makes them freely accessible to you and me for us to share. We Animals has been going for fifteen years and Jo-Anne works tirelessly (well, perhaps a more correct term is dertermindley) and she does this because she deeply believes the need for us to change the way we are treating animals and the need for rapid change in the way we eat, for our planet. She is the author of two books We Animals (2014), and Captive (2017) and in 2017, and there is the award-winning documentary Ghosts In Our Machine that follows her work.
When I spoke to Jo-Anne she was getting ready to fly out for yet another international extreme undercover investigation with a well-known animal rights group, where she would be responsible for documenting the horrors that are occurring behind closed doors - the images the companies don't want us to see. But Jo-Anne does this work because she believes we must. She believes by showing people the truth of what happens, that is how people can make changes, because they see and they learn. When I ask her how she started WeAnimals she said, "I realised I could combine my two passions. It was the perfect way I could combine my career of photo-journalism and my concern for the "invisible animals" - the ones we have a very close relationship with but we fail to see...once I started seeing these animals I couldn't unsee them. There are billions and billions of them suffering needlessly and they need people to speak up for them. I know good images are absolutely essential in engaging audiences... "
Jo-Anne has managed to capture thousands of images that speak to us - that move us - with enough depth to capture our interest, yet in a way that doesn't force us to turn away. An incredible balance. "There is a need to show each number is not just a number, but an animal with feelings. In my photographs, I try to show the large numbers as well as the individuals,"
"I ask a lot of the audience when they look at the images because they can painful to look at but I also try to capture images that give us hope."
Her balance of showing the darker images with also the understanding that hope breeds hope is why she started her most recent project, Unbound, where she is interviewing and photographing woman on the front line of animal advocacy around the globe for a book and multimedia purposes, "because I want people to see that things can be done and there are different ways to get involved."
"Far too often people believe that they do not have enough time, money, or expertise to get involved in animal advocacy. Many of us also misunderstand what it means to be an “activist.” Unbound aims to challenge those notions, and to demonstrate through these inspiring examples how we all can make a difference for the animals with whom we share this planet."
I encourage you to spend some time reading some of these woman's stories, here are examples but there are many, because as Jo-Anne says, there are many ways in which we can help, we just have to find what way is right for us.
With the incredible work load Jo-Anne has - which is unfortunately due to the incredible amount of animal welfare disasters we have throughout institutions today, I wanted to know if Jo-Anne felt the impact of being someone who understands sentient beings have feelings, and then having to be around these tortuous situations for long hours for work. "When we work in these conditions and are witness to the suffering, there are consequences. Of course. Sometimes with my health, or stress levels. Sometimes it can feel overwhelming. Now I concentrate on what I can do and the people around me doing amazing things. It's important to connect with people who share our views and can support us."
"The hardest part is leaving."
We talk about the need to take care of ourselves if we are going to be able to care for others - including the animals. She recommends Pattrice Jones’ book, Aftershock: Confronting Trauma in a Violent World. A Guide for Activists and their Allies saying it "helped me with my advocacy work and I believe everyone should read it."
I asked if she has felt a particular animal she was moved by, or a issue she is really passionate about, Jo-Anne shared, "To claim I care about a cow more than a pig, or any other animal wouldn't make sense. I feel all animals deserve the right to fulfil their instincts and be free of suffering, not one more than the other."
I encourage you to listen to Jo-Anne speak - because she has that ability to inspire through her... for the first time I thought I really should catch up with 2018 and do a podcast! Obviously I am still old-school writing, but you can catch her in so many recordings - one I loved is here.

Is satellite broadband the best option for the rural UK?
The government’s BDUK (Broadband Delivery for the UK) project aims to roll out superfast fibre-based connections to over 95 per cent of the country by 2017. But what about those 5 per cent of homes, properties and businesses who won’t benefit?
Under the terms of the BDUK plan, those not included, those in the last 10 per cent will be connected to a basic service delivering at least 2Mbps at all times.
The ‘5 per cent’ actually varies from region to region. In some cases, as in Wales, the target it to provide superfast connections to 96 per cent. In Herefordshire and Gloucestershire, it’s 88 per cent.
What the 5 per cent has in common across all regions is the fact that they’re typically rural, low density areas that are hard to reach with fixed line connections for economic and technical reasons.
Looking for Satellites: Could broadband beamed from space be the answer?
Read Recombu Digital’s guide to Satellite BroadbandFTTC (Fibre to the Cabinet) technology is the main type of connection being rolled out across the UK by BT under it’s own commercial network upgrade and in BDUK projects.
While this provides speeds of up to 80Mbps, the limitations of the technology mean that its better off serving densely populated urban areas. Speeds on FTTC degrade over distance, to the point where any property located over a mile away from a cabinet is probably not worth connecting.
As homes and businesses become more spread out the further away you get from cities, the less viable FTTC becomes. There’s a number of other options available to rural folk which are more suited to cope with population dispersal.
Solutions like wireless and 4G broadband and FTTP (Fibre to the Premises)-based altnets like B4RN, Gigaclear and Fibre GarDen are helping to plug the gaps. All these technologies rely on the availability of backhaul to connect to backbone lines situated across the country.
Satellite broadband by contrast doesn’t, which is why for those areas too far away from backhaul to benefit, it’s probably the best option for the rural 5 per cent.
Mark Wynn, managing director of satellite broadband ISP Avonline says that despite ambitious projects such as Digital Scotland, which plans to install over 800 kilometers of BT backbone, many rural locations that will not benefit from a fast fixed connection.
Wynn told Recombu Digital: “Four per cent of locations won’t be catered for in the next five years. These places will not see a demonstrable improvement in broadband availability. In context that’s around one million locations.
Mike Locke, managing director of Satellite Internet for BeyonDSL adds: “When you look at the physical cost of connecting remote areas and putting that infrastructure in, if you’ve got one customer at the end of a 10 kilometer line the business model for terrestrial connections breaks down.
the same amount of money raised from the TV licence fee to fund the first round of BDUK.
The main advantage satellite broadband has over other types of broadband is availability. You can pick it up virtually everywhere in the UK. Some parts of Scotland aren’t yet able to receive signals from the SES Broadband footprint, which BeyonDSL uses, but we understand that coverage will be extended in 2014.
Top download speeds available on satellite connections are 20Mbps and average speeds rarely dip below double figures.
Disadvantages include latency, which is higher than on superfast fixed line connections and the cost to the consumer.
Latency, the time it takes for data to travel to a server and back is an indicator of how well services like Skype and multiplayer gaming will work on an internet connection, the lower the better. Typical latency on most satellite connection is 600 milliseconds. According to Ofcom’s most recent survey, latency on most ADSL2+ connections is roughly around 20-40 milliseconds. For gaming this is a problem but VoIP and video calls will be possible, just slow.
Then there’s the costs of setting up satellite broadband and installing a dish, if you’ve not got one already. Costs can be as much as £300 and this cost is often spread over the lifetime of a 12 or 24 month contract. As such, the monthly rates are more expensive than cheap ADSL bundles, but there’s the added bonus of not having to pay line rental.
To put it another way, it’s better than what isn’t available now and in some cases might not be available for years, if at all.
So, are BDUK projects making use of satellite? Areas in the Superfast Cornwall programme will benefit from satellite broadband, where it’s not possible to connect people to FTTP, FTTC or bonded DSL lines. The iNorthumberland project will end up using satellite to connect places which can’t be easily reached.
Each BDUK project is different and how each local authority reaches the remote parts will depend on the approach taken.

With street style taking over the Internet, Karl Lagerfeld created a similar scenario by miraculously erecting a Parisian-styled boulevard under the glass dome of The Grand Palais. No kidding. Called ‘Boulevard Chanel’, you had to take a second glance to figure that the décor was a set-up and not an actual street.
Models paraded in twos and threes, chatting away like they would on any casual Sunday afternoon. The brand’s Spring Summer (2015) ready-to-wear collection defined street style and exemplified all that Gabrielle Chanel stood for – free-spirited fashion. Tweed pantsuits accessorised by vibrant silk neckties were a perfect blend of masculine-meets-feminine. Comfortable clothing inspired by menswear made an appearance in the form of double-breasted blazers and boxy jackets. Feminine undertones showed with vibrant colours and flamboyant prints on blouses, neckties and scarves.
Long tweed coats, military-inspired jumpsuits, sailor stripe knits, lace and embroidered dresses, all talk about the forthcoming summer in the light of experimentation and freedom of style. The final leg of the show displayed the wardrobe in signature shades of Chanel – black, white and an elegant touch of gold.
But what really went viral is the now-infamous finale with Lagerfeld and the models staging a mock demonstration. It was a protest, complete with Cara Delevingne and Gisele screaming on quilted megaphones, and banners that read ‘Ladies first’, ‘Make fashion not war’ and ‘Tweed is better than tweet’. Word.

She thought upon the question for a moment, wondering if she should tell the truth or the designated lie.
"The records. I had to destroy the records before anyone found them." The truth flowed from her lips. He was her lawyer. She could not lie to him, not in good conscious.
"The birth of Joseph. He can never know that I am his true mother. The consequences would be devistating to him."
"He's a good kid. How would he feel if he found out that his teacher, his favorite teacher, was actually his mother. He'd give up on his writing as a punishment to me. I know he would."
He ran his hands through his hair. The etching around his eyes grew deeper. He reached a hand to cover hers. He was also her lover.
"He has a right to know." He said with a tenderness normal only displayed in the bedroom.
"He doesn't. You best not tell him."
"Or what? Will you burn me down to ashes also?"
She thought upon the answer, but did not respond, afraid of what truth may be revealed.
“Glad to hear it. And yes, it was.” He drains his wine glass.
“You know, the old me would be insulted that you even asked, George.” Marianne removes his dinner plate and walks to the kitchen. “Hey honey, I forgot the ice cream. Please?” She gives him a sweet look.
“Sure. What kind do you want?” George grabs his car keys.
Marianne watches the man she loves climb into his black Porsche.
The explosion blows out the kitchen window.
Aha, I like yours more.
Joseph peered at her over steepled fingers.
"Marianne," he said, "Would you mind telling me why you set your Town Hall on fire?"
"Huh," said Marianne as she dropped a minion who shook his head when he landed on the game board before standing up and continuing to collect wood from the forests.
"Over there." Joseph levitated on his VR cloud over Marianne's cloud so he towered over her. He pointed at a pillar of black smoke rising from Marianne's town tile.
"Oh that, I need to raze the Town Hall so I can expand my basilica." Marianne smiled up at Joseph, she knew he wouldn't understand.
"Marianne, Marianne," he shook his head as he looked down at her, "You can't win without your Town Hall. This is going to be a cake stomp." Marianne looked down to stifle her laughter at his attempt to use a 20th century colloquialism. The kids these days thought they were into veracity. If Joseph had truly paid attention to history, he'd have known that the religious fanatics had lots of babies and always fought the hardest. Marian picked up another minion and dropped him on the basilica.
Cher, I liked the way you envision Marianne's character. Deb, I like this, it reminds me of your Lulu & Lexi one as well.

I have found on rare occasions that if I put something I want out into the universe it just might materialize. Thus when I wrote in an earlier BLOG entry about how I would like to see PT Walkley do a full set at the Joe's Pub, I had no idea the planning was already in the making.
Early in his set, PT Walkley did a lot of the material from his newest CD “Mr. Macy Wakes Alone.” The band walked out on stage as the music done by the Kings Highway String Quartet played over the sound system. The melody being played is one that opens up and closes the new CD as part of the last song “Somebody.” After the intro, PT sang “Lucky Ones” with his tall, lanky and lovely wife Michel by his side doing her talking parts – the song has a very 1920's ragtime feel to it and was a fun opener. He later returned to the same musical feel doing “Calvin in the Corner” and "Audrey Macy "as a sort of medley.
I have to say you can hear a lot of PT Walkley's influences in his music. But on Saturday night, as soon as I heard the harmonies in “Sunshine” one influence clicked – The Beatles. I'm not stating that because Sean Lennon worked on some of “Mr. Macy” but because I think The Beatles influence was already there. Not all the of PT's songs that remind me of The Beatles are Lennonesque – there is definitely a McCartney influence. Some of the a fore mentioned songs on “Mr. Macy Wakes Alone ” remind me of “Honey Pie,” and PT's song “Sanitarium” reminds me of songs like “For No One" and "Eleanor Rigby."
Since I've digressed to the point of talking about musical influences, I would like to make a comparison as well. PT Walkley has the the same sort non stop energy as Butch Walker. Both men seem to love what they do so much that they can stay on stage until they drop. (PT was sweating through the whole show until someone finally handed him a towel.) And oddly enough both songwriters went for a softer more country music sound on their newest CDs. Digression over – back to the show.
The show took off when PT went solo for two songs on his acoustic guitar. Before bringing the band back in, PT performed his song “Mediocre” with it's sarcastic twist and then played his infamous YouTube cover of Bruce Springsteen's “For You.” PT seemed a bit worried about recapturing his online performance. After all, the song is quite wordy and not that easy to deliver. But after dropping a chord or two on acoustic guitar in the beginning of the song he delivered it with flying colors.
Walkley's band consisted of brothers Nicky and David Kulund on Drums and Bass. David was playing a Rickenbacker bass which has been one of my favorites since the 70's. My friend commented that David looked like Mike Nesmith because he wore a hat for the first part of the show (Ref. The Monkees). All of the bands powerful lead solo's were done by Lizzy Lee Vincent on electric guitar and Marc Trachtenberg gave PT's songs that player piano ragtime feel when appropriate. Each musician including Michel Walkley, at one point or another, filled out the sound with background vocals. On the very last song of the set "Punch Drunk," Oren Kaufner came on stage from the audience to play Harmonica.
By all accounts, PT Walkley is an artist who's going places. By doing some research I see he has put in quite a few important appearances like opening for Coldplay. I'm glad I'm getting to see him now because one day soon he's going to be a sold out headliner at a place like Webster Hall. For me, that means paying extra bucks to scalpers on Craigslist. Damn!
Radio was my favorite song, though the wit of Mediocre (imagine being wry, rueful, sarcastic and compassionate all at the same time) blew me away. I could watch him sweat any night if he performs like that.

Immigration detainees at two compounds of Yongah Hill (outside Perth) have begun a hunger strike (Monday 14 January) in protest against detention conditions.
On the night of Sunday 13 January, the Yongah Hill protesters rallied outside their accommodation blocks. On Monday, over 350 people began a hunger strike protest to draw attention to the conditions, the mistreatment and the abuses in Yongah Hill.
The Yongah Hill protesters have issued a statement (below) with a list of their concerns, raising many issues regarding long term detention injustice, visa cancellations, as well as abuse by Serco guards, and the arbitrary arrest powers and internal punishment regime that operates in immigration detention.
The routine use of handcuffs that has become part of Border Force’s militarisation of detention is a particular concern. Below is a video clip of a detainee handcuffed in a Perth hospital after self-harm incidents.
In both MITA and Yongah Hill, protesters have disappeared into punishment cells inside the respective detention centres. One Yongah Hill detainee who staged a roof top protest was taken to the punishment cells on 9 January, and has not been seen since.
Meanwhile, the hunger strike at Melbourne’s MITA North detention compound has been suspended after Border Force met one of the detainees’ demands, providing TVs for the detainees’ rooms (see photo).
However, tensions remain; the TVs are only in one compound and as yet have no antenna connection. And the detainees are still waiting for chairs to be brought into the compound and for the midnight lockdown to be lifted.
And there other outstanding issues about detention conditions to be addressed. Two people in MITA have attempted suicide (one by eating a razor blade) since Friday last week, and one hunger strike protester has been taken to the punishment cells.
MITA protesters are still waiting for action to be taken against guards involved in an alleged assault on two asylum seekers in MITA South last week, video of which was caught on mobile phone cameras and has been widely circulated.
“The protests in MITA and Yongah Hill are shining a long-needed light onto the abuses in on-shore detention. Detention centres have become places of extra-judicial punishment with the Minister and Serco guards invested with arbitrary and abusive powers. They should closed, ” said Ian Rintoul, spokesperson for the Refugee Action Coalition.

Germination*: Germination will occur in 7-14 days at 75-78 °F (23-25 °C). Sow seed on a fine media with good water holding capacity and good drainage. Consistent moisture levels are important to uniform germination. Humidity levels above 95 % and a media pH between 5.5 and 6.5 are important. Do not cover seed as light is required to germinate. Supplemental 24-hour assimilation light provided at this stage will increase germination, reduce crop time and improve plug quality.
Growing On: Transplant plugs into finished containers with a well drained media, and pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Maintain day length in excess of 14 hours. Continued supplemental lighting will improve plant quality and shorten crop time. Growing temperatures between 68-72 °F (18-22 °C) optimize growth and flowering. Fertilize at 150-250 ppm nitrogen in a well-balanced formula.
Media: pH: Maintain media pH of 5.5-6.5 and EC: 0.5-0.75.
Temperature: Maintain temperatures of 70-74 °F (21-23 °C).
Fertilization: Moderate fertilization levels are required. Fertilize the crop alternating with 150-200 ppm nitrogen, using a complete and potassium balanced fertilizer (N: K20-ratio: 1:1,5). Keep low ammonium levels, otherwise the roots become damaged. At high nitrogen levels the foliage can become very big. Avoid pH above 6.0, as high pH causes iron deficiency. Apply chelated iron, if chlorosis becomes a problem. To prevent magnesium deficiency apply magnesium sulphate (0,025 %) 1-2 times. Additional foliage fertilization with potassium support compact plant growth and the foliage gets a dark green color. Avoid high salt levels in substrate. Avoid high fertilizer concentrations, it is advisable to fertilize several times with low concentrations weekly.

Relate: About a month back I landed in the airport of a strange land I had never visited except in my prayers. With me I carried three suitcases, the two larger of which could not way over a hundred pounds. (They weighed in at 87). All that was in those suitcases was the sum total of my remaining possessions. Everything else had been sold or given away. Without a doubt, the hardest part of that pairing down process was the elimination of my library. To say I had hundreds of books would be a lie. It was closer to a couple thousand. Roughly half of these were theological in nature and a good chunk of the rest were history or science. I had to let go of treasures like The Bible, Rocks, and Time by Davis Young, The Fabric of the Cosmos by Brian Greene, and Chaos by James Gleick among many, many others. These three, and plenty of other books have broadened my perspective, taught me more about this wonderful world our Creator has made, and given me a better understanding of who He is.
Science is a great teacher. It is an excellent tool and any Christian who fears it or its findings only demonstrates their personal lack of faith in a great big God who beggars definitions, defies limitations, and destroys the boxes we are so desperate to create for Him to keep ourselves comfortable. But science has its limitations. My first attempt at blogging more than a decade back took place in a forum that has become a ghost town called myspace. In my second blog on that site I proposed two difficulties that science and in the decade since I have still seen no adequate answer for them. I call these difficulties the pendulum problem.
If I were to start a pendulum and take accurate measurements, I could soon use math to chart exactly when and where that pendulum would reach the apex of each swing. I could tell you exactly where the pendulum will be at any given future moment in time. I could also work backwards and tell you where the pendulum has been at any moment in the past as well. The problem is, those math equations will not be able to tell us where and when my single, non-repeatable event of starting that pendulum took place. The numbers would push right past that moment into a fictitious past. In fact, if the further I go back, the more ridiculous the numbers my equations calculate would begin to look. The math that works so well for the present, future, and recent past simply become useless when an outside factor changes the game.
For the second problem, we need to imagine that our pendulum is the entire universe. It has been created and set into motion and those on that pendulum might be able to figure out a lot about the world around them. They might be able to create a workable series of laws about the what, where, and how of everything they are able to know, which is that pendulum universe. But those on that pendulum would never be able to understand the why of the pendulum, the origins of it, or anything of any existence outside that pendulum. They would believe the existence of that pendulum is the sum of everything without realizing that it is merely a tool serving a greater purpose. All of this would be impossible for them to know unless it were revealed to them by someone or something that exists beyond their pendulum.
React: Science has its place. It is a very important one. But science does not have final say. It can tell us much about our world, but there has been one who has come into our world from beyond it. He became one of us so that we can understand Him and emulate Him but He is far, far greater than the stuff of this earth. This intricate, amazing, beautiful, breathtaking world of ours is His work of art. As am I. So are you. He loves us and He loves it and when we learn to do the same, we can better begin to understand Him.
God, don’t let me ever lose the passion to learn more and more about You and this wonderful world You have made. You are the star breather. You spread out the galaxies with more ease than I pull aside a curtain. You have named each and every star, yet You have also counted every hair on my head. OK, that’s not hard, but for some other heads… You have not only set in place the tiniest particles in the quantum world but also continue to hold everything together by Your power. All of creation reveals Your greatness, and wisdom, and brilliance. Let me do the same.
Here at RCG we aim to encapsulate the online Christian world. I have been subscribed to this blog for about a year now and love the daily posts.
Well said, my friend. The visual of the universe as a pendulum is amazing.
I come from a family of atheists who say, ” christians are too stupid to be scientists. Saying you’re a scientist and a christian is an oxymoron because christianity is acceptance of made up stories that have nothing to do with fact.” I believe our God is an infallible God, but that we’re imperfect and that God is the mind behind the intelligent design, the will, the way.
The more I understand about science, the more clearly I see the hand of the Creator. Great post!
The “Pendulum”! I really like this. It is a great scientific explanation of what is happening, how it continues to happen but cannot explain when it started to happen or even how it started. I will remember this post. Thanks for your thoughts and wisdom.
As the pendulum swings, so does ones life. While one was not aware of the moment when their life began, it began all the same. We see the motion of the pendulum and can scientifically find answers to how fast and when it will reach each position of it’s movement, we cannot find when or how it started. While science searches for the begining of time, when this all began, it misses the target that someone had to start it, someone had to build the pendulum, someone was in the begining. A “Think Tank” question: who started the pendulum of life?
Thank you, and praise God, for the excellence of your posts. It is wonderful how God is blessing you and how your pour that blessing out.
I never tire of reading your posts! “Science is a great teacher. It is an excellent tool and any Christian who fears it or its findings only demonstrates their personal lack of faith in a great big God who beggars definitions, defies limitations, and destroys the boxes we are so desperate to create for Him to keep ourselves comfortable.” -This is completely true. Thanks for sharing!
Sorry, but I have to challenge you on word “exactly”. Your stamen reveals, that you are overestimating, mystifying math. That is you hold that math is infinitely accurate and able to describe, or even command how reality works. This is clearly not the case. If this would be the case, scientist would not need to build expensive instruments which goes “ping” (jk), to test that their math at least accurate to some degree. All they would have to do is to work out the math and we could be absolutely sure that reality is the same. Of course this is not what happening and rightly so. Math at most can give us a very accurate estimation but not exact description of how things work in the universe around us.
True, the math for the pendulum would only be exact in a vacuum. There would be other factors that must also come into play like wind, barometric pressure, etc. But the problem would not be in the math but in knowing what and how these factors would be accoumted for in he math.
No! The problem would be the math! Even if we could allow for all influencing things in the math. It still would be impossible to predict exactly where the pendulum would be. One of the problem is, we have to use Pi in our calculations, as the movement of the pendulum is on the circular path. Since we cannot have the exact value of Pi, just an approximation (3.14 …) the result also will be an approximation, therefore not exact.
To suggest belief is impossible for a scientist is silly for many do believe. Christianity has adapted to science we now have big-bang Christians and the Pope accepts the big bang theory. Those Christians who hold rigidly to the Bible account are becoming fewer as science produces more evidence for the great age of the universe. The main problem with Christianity is in the realm of ethics.

if i were to start a pendulum and take accurate measurements, i could soon use math to chart exactly when and where that pendulum would reach the apex of each swing. i could tell you exactly where the pendulum will be at any given future moment in time. i could also work backwards and tell you where the pendulum has been at any moment in the past as well. the problem is, those math equations will not be able to tell us where and when my single, non-repeatable event of starting that pendulum took place. the numbers would push right past that moment into a fictitious past. in fact, if the further i go back, the more ridiculous the numbers my equations calculate would begin to look. the math that works so well for the present, future, and recent past simply become useless when an outside factor changes the game.
for the second problem, we need to imagine that our pendulum is the entire universe. it has been created and set into motion and those on that pendulum might be able to figure out a lot about the world around them. they might be able to create a workable series of laws about the what, where, and how of everything they are able to know, which is that pendulum universe. but those on that pendulum would never be able to understand the why of the pendulum, the origins of it, or anything of any existence outside that pendulum. they would believe the existence of that pendulum is the sum of everything without realizing that it is merely a tool serving a greater purpose. all of this would be impossible for them to know unless it were revealed to them by someone or something that exists beyond their pendulum.
react: science has its place. it is a very important one. but science does not have final say. it can tell us much about our world, but there has been one who has come into our world from beyond it. he became one of us so that we can understand him and emulate him but he is far, far greater than the stuff of this earth. this intricate, amazing, beautiful, breathtaking world of ours is his work of art. as am i. so are you. he loves us and he loves it and when we learn to do the same, we can better begin to understand him.
god, don’t let me ever lose the passion to learn more and more about you and this wonderful world you have made. you are the star breather. you spread out the galaxies with more ease than i pull aside a curtain. you have named each and every star, yet you have also counted every hair on my head. ok, that’s not hard, but for some other heads… you have not only set in place the tiniest particles in the quantum world but also continue to hold everything together by your power. all of creation reveals your greatness, and wisdom, and brilliance. let me do the same.
here at rcg we aim to encapsulate the online christian world. i have been subscribed to this blog for about a year now and love the daily posts.
well said, my friend. the visual of the universe as a pendulum is amazing.
i come from a family of atheists who say, ” christians are too stupid to be scientists. saying you’re a scientist and a christian is an oxymoron because christianity is acceptance of made up stories that have nothing to do with fact.” i believe our god is an infallible god, but that we’re imperfect and that god is the mind behind the intelligent design, the will, the way.
the more i understand about science, the more clearly i see the hand of the creator. great post!
the “pendulum”! i really like this. it is a great scientific explanation of what is happening, how it continues to happen but cannot explain when it started to happen or even how it started. i will remember this post. thanks for your thoughts and wisdom.
as the pendulum swings, so does ones life. while one was not aware of the moment when their life began, it began all the same. we see the motion of the pendulum and can scientifically find answers to how fast and when it will reach each position of it’s movement, we cannot find when or how it started. while science searches for the begining of time, when this all began, it misses the target that someone had to start it, someone had to build the pendulum, someone was in the begining. a “think tank” question: who started the pendulum of life?
thank you, and praise god, for the excellence of your posts. it is wonderful how god is blessing you and how your pour that blessing out.
i never tire of reading your posts! “science is a great teacher. it is an excellent tool and any christian who fears it or its findings only demonstrates their personal lack of faith in a great big god who beggars definitions, defies limitations, and destroys the boxes we are so desperate to create for him to keep ourselves comfortable.” -this is completely true. thanks for sharing!
sorry, but i have to challenge you on word “exactly”. your stamen reveals, that you are overestimating, mystifying math. that is you hold that math is infinitely accurate and able to describe, or even command how reality works. this is clearly not the case. if this would be the case, scientist would not need to build expensive instruments which goes “ping” (jk), to test that their math at least accurate to some degree. all they would have to do is to work out the math and we could be absolutely sure that reality is the same. of course this is not what happening and rightly so. math at most can give us a very accurate estimation but not exact description of how things work in the universe around us.
true, the math for the pendulum would only be exact in a vacuum. there would be other factors that must also come into play like wind, barometric pressure, etc. but the problem would not be in the math but in knowing what and how these factors would be accoumted for in he math.
no! the problem would be the math! even if we could allow for all influencing things in the math. it still would be impossible to predict exactly where the pendulum would be. one of the problem is, we have to use pi in our calculations, as the movement of the pendulum is on the circular path. since we cannot have the exact value of pi, just an approximation (3.14 …) the result also will be an approximation, therefore not exact.
to suggest belief is impossible for a scientist is silly for many do believe. christianity has adapted to science we now have big-bang christians and the pope accepts the big bang theory. those christians who hold rigidly to the bible account are becoming fewer as science produces more evidence for the great age of the universe. the main problem with christianity is in the realm of ethics.

Benefits of Pursuing an MBA Online. Accessibility. The ability to access online lectures and other study materials anywhere can make an enormous difference to your success.
When it comes to getting a Master of Business Degree, the road ahead is pretty tough. There's no doubt about the fact that it takes a lot of work and dedication to complete your studies. With that being said, there are ways to help make life easier, mainly by taking your MBA program online at a University such as Southern Cross. What advantages do you get from studying for your MBA online?
We all know that studying for any degree is really expensive. Sure, the rewards will be well worth the investment, but this doesn't mean that you want to spend a ton of money just getting that degree. Well, when you study for your MBA online, you can save quite a bit of money.
When it comes down to it, this particular Master of Business program is one of the most affordable ones in the whole country of Australia. No, it's not cheap per say, but way more affordable than studying on campus, especially at any other institution of higher learning.
Did you know that many degrees which you get in one country are not recognized in others? This is even truer when it comes to online degrees. However, this is not the case when you get your MBA online at Southern Cross University.
This is one of the few online Master of Business programs that is actually recognized around the world. This means that you can study in Australia, or even take the course while you are abroad, and still have the same career advantages as if you were living in the heart of Sydney. This is indeed very rare, something that you may want to take advantage of.
Another big advantage that comes with an online MBA program is that you can choose to take the basic MBA course, or you can choose to specialise in a certain field. In other words, it is one of the most versatile MBA programs in the whole world in terms of selection.
If you choose to specialise, you can get your MBA in accounting, health services management, managing and leading people, and information and knowledge management. Each of these MBA specialisations will provide you with specific skills and knowledge pertinent to a very specific career field.
Something that you might recognize as being a real pain in the neck is that when you study on campus there is usually only one intake period per year, sometimes two. This means that if you miss an intake period, you could wait for up to 6 months, or more, in order to start your MBA program on campus.
Of course, this is not ideal. Well, if you happen to take your MBA online, there are actually 6 different intake periods. This means that if you miss one intake period, you never have to wait for longer than 2 or 3 months for the next one to come along. It's just another advantage of studying online at a prestigious university such as SCU.
At the end of the day, the bottom line is that it is just much easier, faster, and more affordable to get your MBA online than it is to drag yourself to class on a daily basis for years on end.

text: CENTER REVIEW 46 • SHOPPING CENTER BUSINESS • October 2018 I t's taken several years and the coordination of not one, not two, but three governmental entities, but the rehabilitation of the Salem Gate shopping center is on, full steam ahead. The project holds promise for this strip of interstate frontage in Conyers, Georgia. The 21-acre site is located 25 miles east of downtown Atlanta along Interstate 20 and Georgia Route 138. Built in the 1960s, the nearly vacant shopping center has been in a state of disrepair for many years. The site is in a prime position to be a regional retail draw, surrounded by a Home Depot, a Walmart and a movie theater just across the Interstate. "The site sits in a retail hub," says Richard Dube, president of Tri-Land Properties. Tri-Land is a 40-year-old Chicago-based owner- operator specializing in repositioning underperforming shopping centers. The population within five miles of Salem Gate is 88,940, with an average household income of $66,423. Approximately 109,000 vehicles pass along Interstate 20 each day, while 68,300 vehicles pass by on Georgia Route 138. Tri-Land Properties acquired Salem Gate in 2005 and was working with both existing and new tenants to become part of a Salem Gate redevelopment. When the financial downturn occurred in 2008, all of the new tenants that had been in discussions to become anchors in a redeveloped Salem Gate informed Tri-Land that their expansion plans were placed on hold. Tri-Land then extended some existing tenant leases and operated the property until the economic environment improved. In 2016, Tri-Land approached the City of Conyers with a new redevelopment plan and made a formal request to secure a Tax Allocation District (TAD) designation to support the Salem Gate redevelopment. The City of Conyers adopted a new zoning ordinance in 2016, The Gateway Village District, designed to promote redevelopment of mixed-use projects consisting of retail, hotels, restaurants and entertainment venues. Additionally, this district intends to promote pedestrian-oriented redevelopment through increased accessibility between commercial corridors and adjacent residential neighborhoods, as well as to establish consistent architectural and design standards. The Salem Gate redevelopment will be the first large scale redevelopment constructed under the Gateway Village District zoning ordinance. The City of Conyers's vision is to implement the Gateway Village District along Georgia Route 138 starting with the Salem Gate redevelopment. Salem Gate's Interstate 20 and Route 138 location is considered the "front door" to the Route 138 business corridor, which stretches south approximately two miles along 138 from Interstate 20. TADs incentivize redevelopment by reimbursing the developer for infrastructure and other improvements. Future taxes from the increased property value will be used to repay Tri-Land for infrastructure costs. As part of the TAD agreement, Rockdale County will be installing a new traffic signal into the center's entrance off of Old Salem Road, which will be widened to accommodate traffic flows in and out of the center. According to an article in Rockdale County newspaper, The Citizen, the governing bodies agreed to freeze the ad valorem taxes at the current rate for 20 years while the Salem Gate property Eyesore No More The city of Conyers, Georgia, is helping Tri-Land Properties reposition Salem Gate, a dilapidated center that sits on a site filled with potential outside Atlanta. Lynn Peisner A recently approved tax allocation district will allow for the redevelopment of Salem Gate Market in the Atlanta suburb of Conyers, Georgia.

The ancient city of Lanzhou, which lies in the western interior of China at the edge of the Gobi Desert and the headwaters of the Yellow River, is rapidly positioning itself to become the economic and touristic catalyst for the region. In doing so, the restoration and reclamation of the Yellow is paramount to the area’s redevelopment.
The City of Lanzhou held a competition to develop a master plan for the 60 kilometer River Edge as it passes through Lanzhou. The ambitious plan for Lanzhou, historically crowded with industrial and manufacturing facilities, called for the relocation of the existing river-side industries and the reclamation and redevelopment of the river corridor as the primary image and identity statement of the city. The master plan also provided for massive environmental remediation and riparian restorations.
Working closely with the local government, the Page team created touristic, entertainment and development zones as a sustainable economic catalyst in support of the city’s long-range plan. A new central business district was proposed on brownfield lands reclaimed from industrial sites. The Aqua Culture Research Park was planned along shoreline pedestrian paths and bikeways, and large entertainment and recreation venues were sited near proposed parks and urban gardens.
According to the World Health Organization, Lanzhou has the worst air quality in China. To help mitigate that condition, the team proposed a variety of interventions in the Lanzhou plan. From electric mass transit to urban forest ‘islands’, from gardens and wetlands to relocations of entire riverside industrial and manufacturing complexes, the plan for “greening” Lanzhou would have an enormous impact of the area’s carbon footprint.
