This is not the case with Christian organizations which support massive feeding efforts in third-world nations.

carl, why should athiest organizations need to make for humanitarian aid, when there are perfectly good secular organisations like.....
Atheist organizations defer to others the initiative of hard work to establish charities to third-world nations but decide to take the initiative when it comes to lawsuits for separation of church and state, for which there are secular organizations which already do that too.
Yes, they do have their priorities....
Christ in a Datsun Cherry this getting tedious, let's try a slightly different tack.
See this funny looking chap here, carl? That's Prince Philip and he's the husband of the Queen of England.
Now, there's an island a long way a way from America called Tanna and on this island there's a a tribe called the Yaohnanen people. You're not going to believe this carl, but the Yaohnanen people believe Prince Philip is a divine being! They think he's a God! It's true! They're quite serious about it.
I'm pretty sure you don't believe Prince Phillip is a god - that would be silly wouldn't it? But now you know this, are you going to give to the poor in the name of not believing that Prince Philip is a God? If not, why not? And would we be able to conclude anything about your character if you didn't?
Now imagine if this cargo cult, for some bizarre reason, became popular in America and some of it's adherents starting insisting that children in school pray to Prince Phillip and wanted to make it law. Wouldn't you organise against such a stupid idea? Wouldn't you approach congress and say look, as a person who doesn't believe that Prince Phillip is a God, I shouldn't be forced to kowtow to him by law or have to adhere to this cargo cult in any way, shape or form?
And would that make your non-belief in the divinity of Prince Phillip your religion or define who you are?

I can't remember the name of the actual church, but the line underneath was (in italics, and quite possibly quotes)
"The Church Of True Worshippers"
There was no reason to believe the people were actually trying to look profoundly arrogant, nor for assuming that in everyday life they were particularly unusual people.
Instead it seemed likely to be something about religion which caused them to abandon self awareness and a sense of perspective.
Now, one could well say that a sports team may have an arrogant 'we are the greatest' written on their club bus, but one might also think that one of the basic purposes of religion is supposed to be cultivating of modest self-awareness and perspective.
I don't do sarcasm smileys, but someone as bright as you has probably figured that out already.

Numerous doctrinal disputes and splitting of churches has frequently happened as a result of clearly entirely sincere people honestly believing they have some connection to a deity praying and thinking and coming up with different answers to the ones which other similar people have got.
It is not surprising that humans disagree, wouldn't you agree?
Er, just one slight problem here, Carl. Your magic man is supposed to be capable of dispelling discord and disagreement on the relevant subjects, yet, if this entity exists, it has utterly failed to do so. Indeed, your magic man, if it exists, has even failed to persuade supernaturalists on a global scale to adhere to one mythology. Which is rather telling.
At times, it's amusing seeing supernaturalists trying to excuse the failings of their supposedly fantastically powerful and gifted magic man, by blaming far less powerful and far less gifted humans, for supposedly getting in the way of said fantastically powerful and gifted magic man. Which rather drives a tank battalion through the assertions that said entity is as fantastically powerful and gifted as supernaturalists assert.
carl wrote: Disagreement amongst humans carries no weight whatsoever regarding the existence or nonexistence of God.
Except when said entity is asserted to be powerful enough to end the debate once and for all, and with consummate ease, regardless of what humans do or think. Which is precisely what large numbers of supernaturalists do assert. Except that said assertion looks extremely shaky, in the light of the fact that this has manifestly not happened.

This is (a) not true and (b) even if it were true, doesn't answer the question. Why should humanitarian aid fall under the remit of atheism?
Yes, they do. I guess astronomers are bad people too, because the IAU doesn't give anything towards third world humanitarian aid or disaster relief. See how stupid this argument is?
Once again, the only sensible approach is tentatively to reject the dragon hypothesis, to be open to future physical data, and to wonder what the cause might be that so many apparently sane and sober people share the same strange delusion

Would you agree that the biblical interpretation and the beliefs and practices of many nominal Christian denominations are wrong?
Not really. Name which belief or practice you have in mind and I will try to address.
There are too many Christian denominations to name, but your answer would imply that (just to take some examples) you think Baptists, Presbyterians, The Amish, Methodists, Seventh Day Adventists, Greek and Russian Orthodox, Jehovahs Witnesses, Roman Catholics, Quakers, Mormons and Anglicans are all essentially correct in the matter of their biblical interpretation and the beliefs and practices which distinguish each of them from the others?
Is that your position carl?
No. 'Christian' means to follow Christ, so I would simply compare what the Bible says to what their doctrine says. There are items of doctrine for which there is specifically called out in the Bible (primary doctrine) and there are some other aspects which are not specifically called out (peripheral or secondary doctrine). There are areas on which to disagree and allow for that (peripheral areas) and areas of disagreement which separates truth from error (primary areas).
For example, there are primary doctrinal differences between the Bible and the WatchTower teachings of the Jehovah's Witnesses. For Christianity, the Bible is primary. Everything else - teachings of various organizations, traditions, etc. are tertiary.

Except of course, that the decision as to which bits of "scripture" made it into the Bible, at least here in Europe, was decided by committee. There isn't even agreement on this across the so-called "Christian" world. Because some books considered to be 'canonical' by the edicts of the Council of Nicaea, are considered apocryphal by the Eastern Orthodox Church, and vice versa. The idea that this morass of confusion and discord was "God-breathed", is hilarious to put it mildly.

As previously explained from the Bible, we are waiting for the day when He returns and re-establishes order. This is IN THE FUTURE. We must realize the Bible is not claiming that heaven is here now.

Prince Philip has nothing to do with atheists failing to organize their resources to initiate relief to the suffering world.
Yes, atheists initiate lawsuits, billboards, and atheist conventions, which is all good but in the words of Jesus:
Matthew 23: "Woe to you, blind guides! You say, 'If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gold of the temple is bound by that oath.' 17 You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes the gold sacred? 18 You also say, 'If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gift on the altar is bound by that oath.' 19 You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 20 Therefore, anyone who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it. 21 And anyone who swears by the temple swears by it and by the one who dwells in it. 22 And anyone who swears by heaven swears by God's throne and by the one who sits on it.
23 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness."
What good are atheist conventions and billboards when people are starving and dying?

That's quite deliberately and dishonestly avoiding the point.
The point is that the alleged deity is not claimed to be shy or powerless.
Indeed, all manner of believers claim to see evidence of it intervening in everyday matters, and scripture is filled with tales of it intervening in human affairs, especially when people are guilty of 'incorrect worshipping'.
Yet in non-mythical history, it seems to entirely avoid intervening in disagreements between its supposed followers which involve some of those followers telling other people it wants X or Y or Z when some of the things it is claimed to want can't be right because they are incompatible with other claims, typically being made by seemingly sincere people.
This claimed deity seems entirely unwilling to do any of the simple things it could supposedly trivially easily do to stop people saying untrue things about what it wants.
Even when disagreements get to the point where significant numbers of people end up getting tortured and killed in its name
And, all for the lack of basic guidance.
In reality it does exactly the same amount of intervening as Thor, Horus, or Shiva.
That is to say, bugger all.
As previously explained from asserted by the Bible
Fixed it for you. Except of course that these assertions do nothing to address the substantive argument.
carl wrote: we are waiting for the day when He returns and re-establishes order.
Except that, oh wait, the original authors of your mythology thought this would happen in their lifetimes. Except that it didn't. And every "prediction" since then of the imminent arrival of your magic man has been hilariously wrong. The latest such fisaco being Harold Camping's 2011 rapture "prediction", which turned out to be just as hilariously and fatuously wrong as all the previous ones.
carl wrote: This is IN THE FUTURE.
Except this this is yet another blatant apologetic evasion of the substantive point being made, namely that your asserted "fantastically powerful and gifted" magic man was capable of ending the debate right from the word go, but apparently decided to let humans invent a multiplicity of mythologies to adhere to, and arranged for them all to be at each other's throats over this issue. At the very best, this makes your magic man incompetent with respect to its stated mission, and at worst, makes your god a duplicitous trickster deriving a sick schadenfreude pleasure from the misfortune that is entirely the responsibility of said entity. Trying to excuse either incompetence or malice by pointing to some piece of the fabricated mythology you treat as fact, and try and tell us that yet more unsupported assertions therefrom constitute fact, won't wash.
carl wrote: We must realize the Bible is not claiming that heaven is here now.
Of course, a magic man is easier to prop up when it's always jam tomorrow ...
carl wrote: 1 Corinth. 13: "For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully..."
Why should I treat these mythological assertions as being any less suspect than the assertion in Matthew, that hundreds of dead people got up and walked about, which apparently failed to come to the attention of either the other three "gospel" writers, or several thousand occupying Romans?
But... but... it's jam tomorrow.

But for Jehovah's Witness the Bible is primary also. There is no significant difference here between that particular denomination and all the others - as you say, all Christian denominations have the Biblical texts at their core.
And yet, interpretations of those text do vary widely within the Christian tradition, along with the beliefs and practices which are laid down, doctrinally, as a condition of membership for each sub-set.
Now I'd grant that there are often similarities of interpretation and certain other commonalities between Christian denominations - they are all 'Christian' after all - but Mormons aren't Catholics, Baptists aren't Presbyterians, and Anglicans aren't Methodists etc, precisely because they significantly depart from each other with regards to Biblical interpretation and doctrinally authorised beliefs and practices.
So the question remains, and although I have no idea about which branch of the Christian tradition you would consider to be your natural perch, as it were, do you not think that some people are mistaken, misguided, or just plain wrong to build their nests in other branches of the tree of Christian faith?

Calilasseia wrote: Because some books considered to be 'canonical' by the edicts of the Council of Nicaea . . .
A minor quibble here. It's very common to hear that the Council of Nicea established the biblical canon, but there is practically no evidence that that is the case. The only evidence which supports that idea is a preface to the Book of Judith written by Jerome, but the fact is he wrote the preface approximately 75 years after the Council of Nicea, and mentions as hearsay that the Book of Judith (specifically) was accepted as a "historical" book by the Council of Nicea.
It appears that the first synod to issue an official canon may have been the Council of Laodicea, though that is disputed. As far as I know, the first synod which undisputedly issued a canon was the Council of Rome in 382, though as the link explains, that was a local, not an ecumenical concil. The Third Council of Carthage in 397 issued a canon, as did a later synod in Carthage, in 419.
Yes, all of the above is tedious, but the main point is that the idea that the Council of Nicea issued a canon has practically no support. A nice summary of this issue is "The Council of Nicaea and the Bible".
From all of which we learn that the council made a ruling on the date of Easter and condemned the views of Arius. After the council, Constantine ordered the burning of the works of Arius and his sympathisers, and the exile of himself and his supporters, and followed this later in his reign by action against Christian schismatics and gnostic heretics.
From these there appears almost no evidence that the council of Nicaea made any pronouncements on which books go in the Bible, with the ambivalent exception of Jerome, or about the destruction of heretical writings, or reincarnation. However it did condemn Arius and his teachings, and the Emperor Constantine did take the usual Late Roman steps to ensure conformity afterwards. However these were not put into effect; and Arianism made an almost immediate comeback. Even Arius was recalled by Constantine.
Serious, but not entirely serious.

Atheist organizations defer to others the initiative of hard work to establish charities to third-world nations ...
The term Third World arose during the Cold War to define countries that remained non-aligned with either NATO, or the Communist Bloc. The United States, Western European nations and their allies representing the First World. The Soviet Union, China, Cuba, and their allies representing the Second World.
Seeing the Cold War ended in the 1980s, what exactly is a "third world" nation in your mindset?
And which nations should we be giving money to? Underdeveloped African states that are controlled by insane terrorist organisations?
Well-developed, but dangerous Middle-Eastern nations that are overrun by insane terrorist organisations?
Please define which nations you think should be receiving our charity?
ETA: In the countries that are overrun by terrorists, they are also overrun by priests wielding Bibles and the charity is handed out ON CONDITION that the recipients also accept the Bibles. Imagine that, a hungry child being given a Bible, rather than some decent clothes, a house and some food. And guess who is giving them the houses, clothes and food? Yes, those nasty secular, atheists: doctors without borders, and other aid organisations not affiliated to churches.
If you're talking about countries that were previously not aligned to NATO or the communist bloc, then you're talking about for example, my country, which is far from being "third-world" in the sense of being under-developed. Here, no one asks where the money donated to charity comes from, they simply accept whatever anyone is prepared to offer, with respect.
ETA: Until the end of the Cold War, we were a "third world" country in that we didn't belong to NATO, and despite being a colony of Great Britain, like Australia, and pretty well developed (except for the areas where we sent people who looked different to live that is.) Now we are a developing country, and we don't want your charity, definitely not any more charity that comes with Bibles, we want investment.
..but decide to take the initiative when it comes to lawsuits for separation of church and state, for which there are secular organizations which already do that too.
Please show some examples of atheists taking the initiation "when it comes to lawsuits for separation of church and state." I read several international news items every day, and I watch international news channels on TV. I've yet to see any news items about lawsuits initiated by atheists. Please explain this statement.
Yes, my priorities are to do as much good as I can to anyone who needs my help, and to cause as little harm to my environment as I possibly can. And I can do that without grovelling on the floor and talking to the ceiling.

You know what the problem with deliberate obtuseness is, carl? It's indistinguishable from the genuine article.
Cut and paste skills aren't as impressive as discoursive honesty, carl.
Never having attended an atheist convention or put up a billboard, I wouldn't know, but why don't you provide the evidence that you haven't erected a false dichotomy? Impress us with your evidence that atheist conventions and giving to charity are mutually exclusive.

Someone else is already using the driver to communicate with, I think it's, Mobius.
I'll be emitting a new version of the driver later this summer (I made some local changes but no bugfixes and not enough to justify a new release) and we'll see how it goes from there....!
1. There is no new functionality or bug fix for the Softstep driver in the code base.
2. People are successfully using the current code for their own derived patches which seems to work fine.
No way to use it without MAX, right?

MMQB: Oh Goodness Yes
The Frogs shellacked the Jayhawks at home under the bright lights.
By Mason Chreene Oct 23, 2017, 10:30am CDT

Photo by Tom Pennington/Getty Images
What. A. Historic. Game.
I had no idea I was saving this one, but here goes: I have been alive for more YEARS than Kansas had YARDS.
*Moment of silence for the artist formerly known as Doug Meacham*
I do feel for the guy, but I've seen enough double reverses on 2nd and 10 and fade routes to 5'8 receivers to help make that feeling go away. Better luck next time Doug!
Oh ya and Baylor is 0-7 aaaaaaaaaand unless some serious weirdness happens, will not make it to a bowl game!
Now on to the real good part:
Everything. All 3 phases of the game came up big in this one. Was it Kansas? Yes. Does it still help the rhythm and confidence of the team when they just annihilate a team like that? Absolutely. This was the first time since the 2014 Peach Bowl that from the first snap, I knew that we were about to dominate the other team. It's funny that I'm saying this about TCU playing Kansas, when we are supposed to beat Kansas, but you know the KU curse has been real for the past 3 years...or at least very close to being real.
Let's start with the historic defensive showing shall we? The Horned Frog defense came out motivated and held the Jayhawks to 21 TOTAL ONE YARDS OF OFFENSE. If you haven't yet, go check out the box-score for this one. It's absolutely hilarious.
So the TCU defense allowed 46 passing yards and negative 25 rushing yards.
This had to have made Patterson crack a smile right?
Well Travin Howard balled out, recording five tackles, four of them solo, one sack, and one tackle for loss. Bless up Travin. The Frogs finished the night with 11 total tackles for loss and four sacks. Chris Bradley and Ben "Ostrich Eggs" Banogu combined for half sacks each, because #TeamWorkMakesTheDreamWork. Ross Blacklock and Matt Boesen recorded sacks of their own. Maybe this entire defense has ostrich eggs eh?
Ladies and Gents, it appears that Kenny's got his confidence back. Did he ever not have it this season? I doubt it, because he's been way smarter with the ball through 7 games than he was all of last year. He's playing maybe...the best football of his career right now (knock on wood in hopes that the best is yet to come). Hill finished the day with 278 yards passing on 19/26 (whoop whoop completion percentage) with 5 tuddies to show for it. Hill showed He dropped a dime into the hands of Diarse twice in this one. Speaking of Diarse, that man had himself a day. Number 9 caught four passes for 130 yards and a touchdown. He made another highlight play this week by breaking off a defender draped around his ankles and breaking off for six points.
Not to be forgotten though, Jalen Reagor had 3 receptions for 43 yards, 2 of them for touchdowns...and just when I thought I couldn't be more excited to watch him play.
Oh ya KaVontae Turpin made a 90 yard house call in this one too. With the Frogs up 37-0 with a little over 6 minutes to go in the 3rd, just when you thought KU was getting some momentum back on their side (lol), Turpin bounced around and next thing you know was zooming down the field for a touchdown.
Offense balled out, the defense locked down, and the special teams unit made plays of their own. It truly was a complete game played by TCU.
Nothing. I mean we technically had 3 fumbles and lost none of them. I harped on this a last week against KSU, but if we really do want to make sure we make it into the playoffs or a NY6 bowl then we need to make sure we are protecting the ball. Again, the Frogs aren't giving me much to complain about so I'm doing the best I can with what the team gives me...but I'm totally fine with this.
Next week onto RANKED Iowa State
I think I was a year early on my Matt Campbell Kool-Aid trip, but this year it seems to that ISU has proven that they cannot be slept on. After upsetting OU in Norman and dismantling the Red Raiders in Lubbock, the Fightin' Cyclones host the Frogs next week. I'm nervous, as I am for all TCU games, but you know the Frogs won't be sleeping now...and neither should the rest of the country. It's a top 25 match up in Ames and let's hope the Frogs ball out there too.
Ah which one to choose, which one to choose. I don't know if I've given KaVontae a shout out in this category yet, but I think he absolutely deserves it this week. He had a crazy run where he spun out of like 5 tackles and then flipped for extra yards...but we all know it has to be the punt return for a touchdown. Gaze on this master class work of art:
TCU's KaVontae Turpin just did this... @NBCDFW pic.twitter.com/Mu6rsZzeG9

The INTENSE project: using observations and models to understand the past, present and future of sub-daily rainfall extremes
Mishra, Vimal
URI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5194/asr-15-117-2018
https://repository.iitgn.ac.in/handle/123456789/3777
Historical in situ sub-daily rainfall observations are essential for the understanding of short-duration rainfall extremes but records are typically not readily accessible and data are often subject to errors and inhomogeneities. Furthermore, these events are poorly quantified in projections of future climate change making adaptation to the risk of flash flooding problematic. Consequently, knowledge of the processes contributing to intense, short-duration rainfall is less complete compared with those on daily timescales. The INTENSE project is addressing this global challenge by undertaking a data collection initiative that is coupled with advances in high-resolution climate modelling to better understand key processes and likely future change. The project has so far acquired data from over 23?000 rain gauges for its global sub-daily rainfall dataset (GSDR) and has provided evidence of an intensification of hourly extremes over the US. Studies of these observations, combined with model simulations, will continue to advance our understanding of the role of local-scale thermodynamics and large-scale atmospheric circulation in the generation of these events and how these might change in the future.

I found it both funny and disappointing at the same time, how I wrote short pieces in the past, some questions, or some phrases that stroke a chord, that I never had the chance to go back to once again, to amplify and express how those flakes of thought meant to me during different points in time. It's funny how this just confirmed how strikingly thoughtless, maybe, I have been becoming. It's thoughtless in the sense that important experiences lay lesser meaning each day because of the apparent deprivation of constant reflection, an activity renowned for its magic in stretching experiences, giving life to the meager and the mediocre. It's disappointing how each day, at least to me, is shrunk down to mere flakes that hold little to no taste, because of my own doing, how I let only blocks of words, or perhaps a picture or two, depict a day. It's even a greater shame when milestones and significant events seemed to taste now as low as the others. I'm problematizing this because my memory is poor. Many would look at a word, a phrase, or a picture, and see a flash of memories along with it. To me, it also does the same effect. I see flashes. Feel it as it flashes. But, I wanted to see the little things as well, the things that brought light and beauty or even darkness to a day. I'm not doing this. I'm not taking pictures of the little things. I'm not writing down all the little things. If the little things are valuable to me, should I start attempting to immortalize those from now on, and sleep in peace, knowing that any important bits and details of memory won't slip away from me? Or should I let it be, because this is just the way things should be? The ones that made us feel the extremes would stay longer. The ones we built that added colors and shade to the extremes sometimes slip away from us forever.
Why do you have to show me this early?
that seemed so meager, now that this is ending.
Someone who's so much like you?
Someone who's in the same cards as you?
All I've ever wanted these days was to be right for you, only you.
But, there's so much pretty fishes in the pool so how can you choose only me?
as much as I do about you.
But sure, I was happy, knowing you.
That's why, I thank you, pretty baby.

2. Cher Horowitz – the star of the cult 90s hit, Clueless, one of the many films I am able to quote along with. Her quality one liners made her magical to her ex step brother Paul Rudd and so they began dating at the end of the film.

New ag logistics center brings Amazon-esque delivery service to South Dakota farmers
Dominik Dausch
Farm Forum
LARCHWOOD, IOWA — When you put the words "agriculture" and "fulfillment center" together, you might picture an Amazon-style warehouse filled with ag-related goods.
That's Farmer Business Network, an ag-focused, e-commerce platform based out of San Francisco, and its delivery service, in a nutshell. After all, FBN's logistic head is Jack Cox, formerly of Amazon. FBN has an office in Sioux Falls and serves more than 43,000 members within its network.
The company opened its newest logistics center in Larchwood, Iowa, on Aug. 25, expanding its ag delivery services to a 200-to-250-mile radius around the hub. That means more than 11,000 crop and livestock farmers within FBN's network from Wall to the corner where South Dakota, Nebraska and Iowa meet and all across Iowa will be able to order critical farm supplies with a one-or-two day delivery promise.
But if you ask Lynn Bailey, general manager of the Iowa facility, about whether the Amazon comparison fits, he'll put it plainly: "I think we're better than Amazon, honestly, but I appreciate the compliment."
From facility to field
Any modern e-commerce company worth its salt banks on its ability to make quick turnarounds on its deliveries. Bailey said FBN's network – comprised of 32 fulfillment centers around the U.S. and three in Canada – is unique in its ability to deliver agriculture supplies, which are often bulk orders of a certain product, within a matter of days.
"We are able to deliver them within two days – typically, next day – or they can come here and pick them up directly," Bailey said.
FBN's 90,000-square-foot Larchwood facility is one of its five primary fulfillment centers in the U.S. In addition to making deliveries across the Midwest, it also coordinates its services with two small logistics hubs in West Fargo and Minot, N.D.
The northwest Iowa facility is flanked by two other buildings that are not currently owned by FBN, Bailey said. He said the site was originally used for animal vaccine research by Grand Labs in the late 1970s. Iowa-based KIWA Radio reported in November 2018 it has "a history of trading hands between various pharmaceutical and animal health research companies."
We had "a need to have one in this area right near Sioux Falls and this region. This site was available, had been sitting empty, so it was kind of an easy one to kind of come in," Bailey said. "Well, I wouldn't say easy, but it was available and in the rural area where we could come in and set up shop, so that's kind of awesome."
The facility stores input goods for both crop farmers — including fungicides, herbicides and pesticides — as well as biostimulants and animal vaccines for livestock ranchers.
Bailey said when an FBN member buys something from the online store, a fulfillment order is sent to the closest facility. A worker then scans a barcode above the product and stages it to be picked up by a carrier.
"Then, typically, our transportation management system will plan the mode of transportation, and that's either going to go on our own fleet, it's going to go on a third-party carrier or, if it's a small parcel, we'll use FedEx," he said.
From there, the order is delivered directly to the farm.
Bailey clarified the service is only available for FBN members, but there is no fee for creating an account to purchase items. The platform dropped a $700 annual membership fee on Sept. 16, 2020, according to AgWeek.
A new option for farmers
FBN operations manager Brian Van Heerde said this will be game-changer for farmers who need to source farm supplies as the season progresses instead of having to cut their losses when they don't have enough on hand.
"It's huge, especially once they're getting a little closer to the end of their planting or their spraying seasons, (if) they don't order quite enough to finish up a field," Van Heerde said. "Getting that next-day last case or last tote is big."
Van Heerde is from a farm family. He shares the perspective that farmers operate within thin financial margins and under many variables. The weather often determines a farmer's priorities, he said, which means they often have a narrow margin for error.
"When it's time to spray, it's time to spray. You don't have a lot of time or even the option to wait," Van Heerde said. "To be able to pass on savings, to reward that hard work and to feed the world, I'm very proud of what this company's doing."

For one final measure of the Social Construct at work in the world of fashion, the Pivot Labs team came together with our friends at for a look at how some of the fashion world's luxury leaders preform on the visual web.
Starting with 10 luxury fashion brands that are making major waves in Social, the study tracked user engagement with Pinned and Instagrammed images, measured top keywords and image sources, and benchmarked the overall performance of each brands in terms of share, impressions and activity. As you can see, activity ranges widely amongst the brands. One major factor that was revealed during the study revolved around the use of Flash technology, as brands depending on Flash to power their online catalogues had limited images available for pinning and their overall performance on the visual web suffers greatly compared to the top-ranking brands.

Fresh out of college and passionate about photography, Deborah Copaken Kogan moved to Paris in 1988 and began knocking on photo agency doors, begging to be given a photojournalism assignment. Within weeks she was on the back of a truck in Afghanistan, the only woman—and the only journalist—in a convoy of mujahideen, the rebel "freedom fighters" at the time. She had traveled there with a handsome but dangerously unpredictable Frenchman, and the interwoven stories of their relationship and the assignment set the pace for Shutterbabe's six chapters, each covering a different corner of the globe, each linked to a man in Kogan's life at the time.
Deborah Copaken Kogan worked as a photojournalist from 1988 to 1992, and her photographs appeared in Time, Newsweek, The New York Times, L'Express, Liberation, and Géo, among many other international newspapers and magazines. She spent the next six years in TV journalism, most recently as a producer for Dateline NBC. She lives in New York with her husband and two children.

League title no guarantee for championship -- Counihan
Martin Breheny
April 30 2012 5:00 AM
THERE were so few Cork supporters in the Croke Park ice box yesterday that it's safe to assume they regard league finals as well down their particular food chain.
https://www.independent.ie/sport/gaelic-football/league-title-no-guarantee-for-championship-counihan-26848265.html
But then they have grown so accustomed to following their team in active participation towards the business end of the championship that they will have watched yesterday's game on TV -- to see if the signs are good for the summer campaign.
The answer is yes, but even before the squad headed back home, Rebels manager Conor Counihan wrapped up his third successive Division 1 title with a warning.
"We went out of here last year as National League champions and the season didn't go too well for us after that," he said.
"It's always nice to win any competition, but now we've got to focus on June 10 (v Kerry or Tipperary) and forget about everything else."
Counihan had encouraging words to Mayo, pointing out how Dublin's championship pedigree was questioned after they lost last year's league final, yet five months later they were All-Ireland champions.
Quite whether Mayo can emulate Dublin remains to be seen but, in terms of learning lessons, this league has been good for them.
Manager James Horan didn't dwell too much on whether Lee Keegan was hard done by as he bore down on goal in the 56th minute, opting instead to view the game in its totality, while accepting that Cork were worthy winners.
"Over the course of the game Cork probably deserved to win," he said. "We didn't play up to the tempo we can, which was disappointing.
"Cork did better on the breaking ball. That gave them momentum at crucial times. They were very strong today."
Despite the defeat, Horan is satisfied that Mayo learned a lot from the league.
"We have a lot of work to do -- that's clear. We'll keep the heads down and get on with it," he said.
Mayo will be the last county to enter the championship when they play London or Leitrim on June 24.
Cork will be in action a fortnight earlier and will do so off what has been a progressive league campaign.
"We did some good things but there are a lot of areas where we have to improve. The championship will be a whole new ball game," said Counihan.
Nobody will dispute that.
But Cork will head for the summer showdowns content that the fundamentals are very much in place for a serious bid to repeat the feats of 2010 when they won the league-championship double.

Is the Galilean Wedding a Passover Seder or real wedding?
No. The Galilean Wedding is a non-denominational presentation that re-creates a first-century Galilean wedding—something Jesus frequently referred to as He explained His love for His bride, the church and His return at the end of the world.
How can my church or organization have a Galilean Wedding?
If you or your church/organization would like host a Galilean Wedding, just email me to request a calendar date. You can check my speaking schedule. I highly recommend you consider dates other than the Easter/Passover holidays, as the Galilean Wedding is effective year round.
How much does it cost to present a Galilean Wedding?
The Galilean Wedding is presented on a love-gift basis only so that anyone wishing to experience this ministry not miss out due to financial burden.
What does my church or organization need to do to prepare for a Galilean Wedding?
Download and read the setup instructions.
Is the Galilean Wedding a feast like the Biblical Dinner?
Only if you want one. Although a meal is an nice addition, unlike the Biblical Dinner it's not significant to the content of the presentation. If you choose to do a meal with the Wedding, your church or organization arranges for food and supplies (you know best where to obtain items locally at the best price). If you are within driving distance (about six hours away or less), I can bring table runners, oil lamps & bases, baskets and bowls for the presentation (enough for around 100 people). If I need to fly, I'm limited to only a few necessary props.
How far will Jay travel to present a Galilean Wedding?
I travel locally, regionally, nationally and internationally, to present a Galilean Wedding. If you can't afford travel costs, I come without obligation—just ask. For multi-day or international presentations, please arrange your dates several months in advance—as a full-time pastor my absences on Sundays are somewhat limited.

Emotion, Social Relationships, and Health (Series in Affective Science)
by Carol D. Ryff
Author: Carol D. Ryff
A growing body of literature on humans and animals documents the link between social integration and affiliative relationships and a variety of health and disease outcomes, including mortality. The actual mechanisms through which these efforts occur are, however, not well understood. Emotion probably plays a central role in mediating connections between relational experiences, underlying neurobiological processes, and health outcomes. Many prior studies have focused on the size and proximity of social networks, thereby neglecting their emotional features. When studied, emotion in social relationships has also been heavily weighted on the side of negative and conflictual interactions, thus giving minimal attention to the possible protective benefits of enduring love, nurture, and affection. This volume brings together these differing lines of inquiry to advance understanding of how emotion in significant social relationships influences health.
"Papers and commentary from the 1997 Third Annual Wisconsin Symposium on Emotion delve into the nature of emotional interaction with significant others and its role in illuminating the established ties between social relationships and health. Contributors from the fields of affective science, clinical and social psychology, epidemiology, psychoneuroimmunology, and health address how to observe and evaluate social interactions in clinical, laboratory, or daily life contexts, and link emotional experience to health outcomes. Ryff teaches psychology at the University of Wisconsin. Singer is affiliated with the Office of Population Research."--SciTech Book News

Late July morning radio. What's that like? Finally we might reach the 90s for several days in a row. Theme. Hot talk radio. Cool down with JED in the morning. At least now we're in the temporary Purdue facilities. At the old place, the air conditioning doesn't work well enough to cool the studio down when the temp gets over 90. That would be hot, stuffy late July radio. Today shouldn't be that. It should reasonably cool late July radio, with a twist of youth baseball and me and Baker laughing about stupid stuff and then talk about a beer-fest and Pierogi Fest and money equality. All radio is good, just some is better than others.

March/April 2004 Israel My Glory
Eye on the Middle East Mar/Apr 2004
Last December thousands of Palestinians flocked to the home of a family whose newborn son caused a sensation. Muslims are revering the boy as the "miracle
baby" of Bethlehem.
The designation was given because of an unusual birthmark on the infant's cheek. According to devout Muslims in the town, the birthmark forms the Arabic letters of the name of an uncle, a Hamas militant. Security sources say the baby's uncle, who was shot dead several months ago, was suspected of masterminding a suicide bombing that killed twelve people on a bus in Jerusalem in November 2002.
The birthmark was immediately interpreted as a message
of divine support for the Palestinians. The child's grandmother
called it a sign "the soldiers can kill our sons but not our spirit." A local Muslim imam traced a finger over the birthmark, which ends behind the baby's right ear, and pronounced it "a gift from God."
Muslims further noted that the baby was born on the twenty-seventh day of their holy month of Ramadan, revered as the night the Qur'an was revealed to the prophet Muhammad.
How interesting that in the little town where the true Miracle Baby of Bethlehem was born two thousand years ago, Muslims are laying claim to their own "miracle baby." Will Bethlehem become the place of annual December pilgrimages by Muslims? Perhaps not. But it is difficult to disregard the fact that the thousands coming to see a mark on an infant's face because it is linked to a terrorist are declaring it a divine miracle. One cannot ignore the vast gulf between reverence for one dedicated to taking life, and reverence for the One who came into the world to be the supreme giver of life.

Some people think Jesus criticized the Jewish people because He did not love them. But they have gotten things all wrong.
For millennia Gentiles have used the New Testament as an excuse to hate Jewish people. Furthermore, many of them misin- terpret the Bible.
If you think Jesus was hard on the Jewish leaders, you should read the Old Testament prophets. And then remember, it's all in the family.

"When you build a Culture of Accountability, you create an organisation filled with people who can and will get game-changing results."
Roger Connors and Tom Smith, authors of The Oz Principle, have written a book all about organizational culture and how to achieve successful culture change. To do this they emphasize the importance of accountability in achieving the desired changes, as a means to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage. I think they have made a sometimes complex and intangible topic quite simple and extremely results focused. I will be trying out some of their checklists and suggestions in the workplace in the very near future.
"Optimizing the culture should command your attention every bit as much as your effort to achieve performance improvements in manufacturing, R&D, sales, and every other organizational discipline…Neglect it at your peril."
This is absolutely key, and Connors and Smith take the reader through some real-life case studies which demonstrate the importance of organizational culture as it relates to performance. Their key focus is the Results Pyramid which incorporates Results, Actions, Beliefs, and Experiences, with Results in at the apex and Experiences at the base. This is a key model which the authors frequently return to as a foundation for more complex concepts and tools. Essentially this model (pyramid) highlights that the results a company delivers is a direct result of its culture. The process requires team leaders and the organization's senior management teams to identify the results they want, and then break this down into what they need to do to create the right actions, beliefs and experiences.
Effectively, the outputs and/or outcomes of an organization's efforts reflect its culture, and if outputs need improving, Connors and Smith suggest that the first step requires changing the organization's culture. What is refreshing about this book is that it sets out what individual managers/leaders must do to turn the culture around, and enable the organization to achieve the desired results. The authors also note that a shift in culture is not necessarily a once and once only activity, but that continuous efforts and adjustments may be needed to ensure the organization is successful in the long term. It was great to read the view that the current culture isn't necessarily a bad or poor culture, it is simply not the culture to help the organization achieve its desired results.
"Whether managers realise it or not, they are creating experiences every day that help shape their organisational culture... these experiences foster beliefs about 'how we do things around here', and those beliefs, in turn drive the actions people take."
The message here is that, an organization's culture is influenced by its managers and leaders. A takeaway for me is that unsatisfactory cultures (in relation to the organizational outputs) are largely attributable to the organization's managers. Connors and Smith provide this model and other actions to support managers in reviewing their practices to shift the culture to achieve the desired results. The authors also note that a key component in shifting culture is to encourage individuals to think and act differently. The leadership team must take the responsibility for creating the cultural change, and it must involve all leaders.
See it – obtain others' perspectives, communicate openly and honestly, seek and provide feedback, hear the hard things that help outline reality.
Own it – align with the organization's mission and priorities, and adopt them as your own.
Solve it – consistently ask 'what else can I do?' to help overcome obstacles and achieve progress.
Do it – walk the talk, maintain a trusting environment, focus on top priorities and not blaming others.
Below the line involves blaming others or taking the perspective of a victim. The authors note that this isn't wrong as everyone occasionally benefits from sharing their frustrations about events or obstacles. They emphasize that if we get stuck below the line, we lose our opportunity to focus on what we can do to get past the obstacles and achieve the outcomes we want. Changing how people think helps obtain their commitment for the desired results, and can dramatically accelerate culture change. This doesn't mean brainwashing them: it is still important that individuals understand the 'why' behind the changes It just means that managers need to change their own behavior to help shift employees beliefs: about them, the organization, and the results it wants to achieve.
"Confusion licenses people to maintain the status quo and to dismiss their accountability to internalize the need for change. Confusion kills the momentum of any culture change effort because no one feels confident about which direction to move."
This highlights the need for clear, concise, consistent, and constant communication about the results the organization needs to deliver. The authors note that 90% of management teams cannot identify with complete alignment the results their company wants to deliver. I can think of many organizations where the leaders state the results they want, but their actions and day to day decisions do not support these high-level goals. The result is confusion among middle managers. The authors provide several case studies where this has happened, with staff failing to deliver the appropriate results because they are uncertain of where to place their focus.
The authors also note that it is important for managers to be clear about results, as this assists them in communicating objectives so that all employees share the same understanding.
It's important to note that clarifying objectives will help to identify whether cultural change is required. If the identified results will take more effort to achieve than past results, the organization probably requires significant shifts in some (if not all) aspects of the culture.
The best parts of the book for me were: Part 1, which worked through the pyramid in detail and provided lots of practical takeaways to implement in my workplace; and Part 2, which was very informative, and provided guidance for managers to integrate these practices at an individual level, including seeking feedback, storytelling, and recognition of good efforts towards achieving the change. It is definitely a must-read for managers interested in understanding how to improve their organization's results and their own role in creating organizational culture.
How will you change the culture of your organization to change the game?

5 Free Audio Mixer Apps For Android To Create Music
By Himanshu Tyagi on January 2, 2017 Android Featured
In this article, I have compiled a list of 5 free Audio mixer apps for Android. These free audio mixing apps will allow you to mix multiple tracks, add beats and your recorded vocals to multiple tracks, apply cool audio effects, and at last save the project as MP3 or WAV files (not all) or directly share them to social media platforms like Facebook, Whatsapp, and even SoundCloud. I am quite sure that you will love all of the apps included on my list as they offer a very intuitive interface for mixing audios and tracks, and some of them even have their own music communities. You can share your audio mixes on these communities and one of the apps even allow you to add collaborators to your audio mixing projects. I have also included a very useful audio mixing App for DJs. So do check them out and mix multiple tracks together on Android.
Note: Most of the apps in this list are ad supported, and display advertisements.
Let's now see these audio mixing Android apps:
AudioDroid: Audio Mix Studio:
AudioDriod is a free audio mixer Android app. This is a pretty advanced audio mixing app as it allows you to record audio and add effects to it. The best part is that it supports multi-track recording and mixing. In simpler words, you can add multiple tracks, and this audio mixer app will mix them together. At last, you can save your audio mixing project/track as an MP3 or WAV file. The only limitation of this audio mixing app is that you can't save mixed track with effects in its free version. However, you can apply effects to single tracks and save them in its free version. It supports MP4, AAC, MP3, OGG, and AMR audio files for mixing.
Getting started with this Android app to mix audio is quite straightforward; add multiple tracks and then audio to every track. To add multiple tracks, switch to the Track screen and then tap on the "Add Track" button. After that, you have to add audio to these tracks. You can either record your voice or import music from your phone in order to add an audio to a track. Select a track from its main interface and then tap on the Record button to start audio recording or tap on the "Open Library" button to add a track from your music library. After that, move to the Edit tab to edit tracks. You can cut or crop a part of the track. After you are done with the editing part, apply some effects but as you can't save the mixed tracks with effects, it's better to skip this step. If you are working on a single track then you can apply a number of effects from Bass, Hall reverb, Concert hall reverb, etc offered by it. Music creator pros will definitely like it as you can also configure 3 band equalizer, tempo, and pitch of the track as well.
At last, you can save the mixed audio tracks by tapping on the Mix button on top of its interface. You can save the mixed track as an MP3 or WAV file. A pretty good usage of this audio mixing app is to import some instrumentals and then record your own voice over it to mix them and create an awesome soundtrack. You must try it as this app makes it a really nice and easy. You can check out any of these music creator Android apps to create beats for your track. If you are interested in this app for mixing audios and creating soundtracks then download it from the link above and read its complete user manual to get started.
Music Maker Jam:
Music Maker Jam is a pretty awesome audio mixing app which offers tons of studio-quality loops from 200+ different music styles (you can only choose any 10 in the free version) to create a soundtrack. The best part is that you can record your own vocal and add the studio-quality beats to make it sound like a pro. Unlike AudioDroid, you can't save the mixed track to your device but it does give you the option to share you track directly to SoundCloud, Whatsapp, Facebook, etc. Apart from that, it comes with a premium interface and it is quite easy to use as well.
Getting started with this free audio mixing app is really easy; download it from the link provided above and then create an account on it or simply login with your Facebook account. After that, this app will ask you to choose from different music styles like Hip Hop, Jazz, Pop, etc. It will then take you to its audio mixing interface. Tap on the "+" button to add a beat and Mic button to add your vocals. You can add multiple beats and record your vocals to mix them up. You can save the audio mixing project from its menu or share it on your Music Jam community, SoundCloud, etc.
Bandlab- Music Make:
Bandlab is a very simple audio mixing app in my list. It allows you to mix up to 12 tracks together. You can add your recorded vocals or import a song from your music library and add them as audio to multiple tracks. It comes with a built-in tool called Metronome and Guitar Tuner. The best part is that you can also add collaborators to your audio mixing project. To add a collaborator, select the Projects from its menu and then open the project's option. Now, select Invite collaborators option and after that, you can either search for another user of Bandlab to add as a collaborator or invite any other person by email.
Getting started with this Android app to mix audios is really a piece of cake; download it from the link provided above and create an account on it or simply login with your Facebook or Google account. After that, tap on the "+" button and select New Project option. Now, it will take you to its audio mixing interface.

If you want to work with multiple tracks then tap on the Pro mode button which will allow you to add more tracks to mix together. To add another track, tap on the "+" button and select Add track option. After that, you can add audio to a track. To add an audio, select a track and then tap on the Record button. At last, tap on the "✓" button to save the audio mixing project either privately or publicly on Bandlab.
edjing Mix: DJ music mixer:
edjing mix is an audio mixer Android app for DJs. It comes with a very intuitive interface and all essential tools for DJs like real scratching, crossfade curve tool, auto mix mode, continuously sync tracks, and many others. The best part is that you can also integrate it with SoundCloud and Deezer (only in pro version) to access your tracks from this free DJ audio mix app itself. It is a very advanced DJ app and a popular one too and we have already covered its Windows 8 version. You can read its complete review here. In short, it comes with advanced music analysis, pro audio effects, smart playlist management, compatible with Mixfader, etc. You can read all of features and accomplishments of this app here.
Getting started with this DJ audio mixing app is really easy; download it from the link provided above and then import tracks from your media library. You can either import tracks from your device library or SoundCloud as well. After that, play both of these effects and tap on the record button on the top to record the mix. This recording is the actual mix of these 2 tracks and it will also reflect the changes that you apply to both of these tracks during mixing. Tap on the SYNC button and this DJ mixer app will then automatically sync these two tracks based on their BPM (Beats Per Minute). You can also configure 3 band equalizer of the track and apply pro audio effects. To apply the audio effects, tap on the FX button and then select an effect from Echo, Reverse, etc. At last, when you are done tap on the record button again to stop the recording. If you want to save the audio mix as an MP3 file then select share as MP3 file and then share it to Whatsapp (as it will then saved to Whatsapp Media folder) or another platform (may need to download as MP3).
Let's see some of the key features of this DJ audio mixer Android app:
Detects BPM (Beats Per Minute) of songs automatically.
Automix mode to smoothly transition
You can apply pro audio effects like Echo, Flanger, and Reverse.
Automatic sync playing tracks with just a tap.
Very intuitive interface that provides access to essential features straight from its main interface.
Integration with SoundCloud.
Smart media library management.
MixPad Music Mixer Free:
Mixpad Music Mixer Free is a free audio mixer Android app. Like other audio mixing apps in my list, it doesn't support multi-track audio recording and mixing in its free version. The added advantage of this free Android app is that it supports Audacity files for editing. So it might come handy if you just want to edit some Audacity files on the go with this Android app. In its free version, you are limited to record and edit just a single track and apply only a single effect on it. So basically, it is a perfect fit as a recording studio for Android. Apart from that, you can only export the mixed audio track in WAV file format.
Getting started with this free audio mixing Android app is really easy, download it from the link provided above. After that, create a new project and record your vocals and apply an effect on it (only 1 supported in free version). You can also edit the recorded track from its editing interface and at last, you can save the project to your device or share it on Facebook, Whatsapp, etc.
In this article, I introduced you to 5 free audio mixing Android apps. All of these audio mixing apps are quite unique and offers distinctive features when it comes to mixing multiple audio files on Android. No doubt, edjing is the most advanced one but you can only use it to mix up to 2 tracks. Music Maker Jam offers high-quality studio-quality beats but you can't add multiple tracks on it. So, it all depends on your preferences that will make an audio mixing app fit for you. I am going to keep edjing, AudioDroid, and Music Maker Jam on my phone. Best of luck with your audio mixing on Android with the apps included above :)
