As I opened my web browser this morning, I noticed a story reporting that Arnold Schwarzeneggar and his wife of 25 years are separating. I don't know much about the couple and my expectations of the Terminator are not exactly high. However, it was sad to read that yet another couple had decided that rather than working things out, separation would be a better alternative. Arnold and his wife are not a unique case. It seems as if every day there are those who call it quits on their marriage. I'm not just talking about celebrities either. I'm sure each one of us know a couple that has split over the last few years.
Unfortunately, we live in a world that doesn't really frown at these facts. Divorce and separation have become very normal in the view of the world. As Christians, our view should obviously not be that of the world. Regardless, even those within the church have begun to allow the world's view of marriage to creep into their minds.
What does the world say? The world says that marriage, though special, doesn't have to be permanent. In fact, marriage isn't even necessary anymore. As far as the world is concerned, why get married when you can just live together? The sad truth is, the world laughs at the Biblical view of marriage. The world not only laughs at it, but claims it's boring. Being with the same person for your whole life is looked at as unexciting and dull. Why be with one woman when you can be with many?
The Bible paints a different picture. Not only is being with the same person for your whole life not boring, it should be seen as a blessing! We can't allow the world to control the way we look at marriage. Look at Proverbs 5, for example. Solomon was a man who had been with hundreds of women. If there was ever a man who would tell us the benefits of the world's approach to marriage, it would have been Solomon. Instead, in chapter 5, Solomon urges us to be with one person and recognize the blessings that come with that. In fact, he also describes the consequences that occur when we approach things in any other way. Solomon understood that being with one person is a blessing from God. God's view of marriage is clear. Marriage is not meant to be the temporary thing that the world has made it to be (Matthew 19:3-9).
It seems funny to me that almost every person, when taking their vows, will say the words "'til death do us part." The world has removed the word "death" in their mind and replaced it with whatever it is that they deem appropriate. If it's another woman…"til another woman do us part." If it's a disagreement…"til a disagreement do us part." It's time we take marriage more seriously and recognize it as the blessing that God intended it to be.
For those of you who are getting ready to take the plunge into marriage, I hope you'll consider these things and make sure you are prepared to make the commitment you need to. For those of you who are already married, I hope you will sit down with your spouse and remind them that regardless of the situation, you'll be there to work things out. And for those of you still looking for that person, I hope you will look for someone that views marriage the same way that you do and the same way that God does.

Once again, a great post Jeremy. This topic comes up for me alot, especially at school. It is so sad to me the way that people treat/think about marriage. Even those who aren't divorced, but who aren't treating their spouse the way they vowed that they would.
Random fact for you – Michael and I didn't say "til death do us part", we said "Until I lay you at Jesus' feet".

This is what the once talk-of-the-town billionaire business man and owner of Atlantic energy used to look like. He was declared wanted by the Nigerian government alongside Jide Omokore in 2016 for allegedly cheating the Nigerian government by using Shell Company to buy luxury yacht, 132 houses, 58 cars and three airplanes.
This was until the Nigerian government declared him wanted leading to the US government seizing a lot of his properties worth a whooping $144million. Some of his assets in the UK were also seized. He has also since gone into hiding and no longer mixes with the rich.
Also gone are Kola Aluko's throng of hangers-on and hero-worshippers who used to benefit from his largesse.
Kola, who turns 49 next week, looks different these days and has covered his body in tattoos.

Have you ever wondered if your chid is a gifted child? How do you know if you are raising a gifted child? Don't be alone. According to this article: "Very young children can be difficult to identify as gifted because their developmental limitations make them difficult to test (they may not yet be able to read or write, or even follow directions). Nevertheless, parents of gifted preschoolers generally notice that their child is doing things that his peers are not, whether in playgroup or even while still in the crib."


It's been 10 months since I've officially been a part of the British Sailing Team, and I'm finding my new found freedom slightly strange.
After all, living each day with just one goal in mind, winning a Paralympic Gold medal, drove me forward for 16 years.
Circa 2002, one of the earliest shots I have!
Looking back now, I realise how much I appreciated about the team, and how much it shaped me as a person. I learnt a lot of life lessons, and I learnt a hell of a lot about myself. I understand now how much the routine of everything really suited my personality, so taking time to apply that to my new life has been pretty important.
Coming back from Rio, I would be hard-pressed to say I was anything but broken. I spent months looking at myself as nothing more than a failure, wondering how I was going to move forward with my future plans and dreams.
Now 10 months later, I've had time to heal, and when I look back, I realise that the British Sailing Team has put me on the path that I'm currently on, which sees me racing headlong towards the Vendee Globe.
2 weeks ago, I headed to Weymouth to pack up the last of the remaining items in my old team's workshop container, and in some ways it was quite cathartic seeing the 40 foot space that once housed the entire project empty; just an empty skeleton being handed over to someone new.
Sail storage finally up in the roof!
At the same time it broke my heart a little bit. That container was once a place I would go to hang out, to fix the boats, to run things from, it was the base of our entire operation.
My best friend, Carol, made the 2 hour journey to help me with the boat, even crawling her way up to the bow to scrub the mildew out of the nose despite her claustrophobia, and the boat before her was scrubbed clean by my old school friend, Rachael.
It's weird really, 16 years of my life, all covered in black plastic and parked in my mums barn.
Now I only have one sonar left to strip out, scrub clean and winterise, and luckily there have already been a few volunteers… I can't wait to see them heading off to new homes and new adventures, much like I am doing with my Vendee Globe adventure!
What I have learnt through all of this however, is that there aren't really negative experiences, even though they may feel like that at the time. After all, life is against you or its making you stronger, that decision rests firmly in your hands!

Rural Transport delivers better using mobile data capture
The business of transporting bulk grain, fertiliser and general freight from place to place has existed for centuries. These days, it's a business carried out by companies with fleets of trucks and trailers. One such company is Rural Transport, which operates a fleet of 59 trucks over large distances in New Zealand's South Island.
General Manager Jim Crouchley says accurate information is absolutely vital to the business.
"The old process of booking a job was to enter it in our Freight Management system and print out a paper docket with all the details the truck driver needed. Then drivers had to fill in more information once the job was completed, such as the actual volume of goods transported and any variances. This had to be returned to the office and updated in the system again so the job could be invoiced."
However, Rural Transport's drivers tend to be based in remote regions. Infrequent trips back to the company's offices meant relying on phone calls to communicate vital information. It was inefficient and slow, with the potential for costly errors to creep in.
Faced with this information gap, the Rural Transport approached its software supplier, HHA Associates Ltd (HHA), and asked if there was a simple, smart way to get real-time information to and from drivers in the field via the tablets the company was installing in its trucks.
Transporting live data to the transport operators
Software Analyst Sarah Bennett saw the potential to integrate mobile forms into a web-based freight scheduling system in use at Rural Transport. Key to this was the API provided by the AMS mobile app platform.
"The biggest benefit to us was that we didn't need to have any mobile development expertise," Sarah says. "The AMS API enabled us to integrate mobile forms into our existing freight scheduling software. We can make available any fields our customers might need."
There was another critical benefit: device neutrality.
"AMS supports iOS and Android, so we can be sure the app will work on a huge range of devices," Sarah says. "It's also very intuitive, so drivers need very little training."
Rural Transport rolled out the mobile app to drivers and was immediately impressed by the gains in efficiency.
"Accuracy is the big thing," says GM Jim Crouchley. "We can be confident the information that goes to the driver is the same data the dispatcher entered. Everyone is operating off the same information."
Jim also appreciates the way cameras on tablets can be used in conjunction with the AMS mobile app to verify facts on the ground and enable instant decisions.
"For instance, when transporting livestock we're required to monitor the state of the animals we pick up. If a farmer wants to load cows that are in a poorer condition than we expected, the driver can take a photo on the spot and send it to the dispatcher, who can make a decision whether the animals should be loaded. It beats a phone call.
"You can describe a situation all you like but no-one argues with a photo."
Harvesting information for better decisions and faster invoicing.
Truck drivers using the AMS app are now feeding data into Rural Transport's freight scheduling system throughout the day. Even when mobile devices are out of coverage – a common event in the rural expanses of New Zealand – data is stored and automatically transmitted when the tablet comes into mobile coverage again.
Feeding in live data enables the business to streamline its admin processes, says Jim Crouchley
"On a typical bulk cartage job we might dispatch a truck to a farm to pick up 30 tonnes of grain. Because the farmer doesn't have a weighbridge we rely on the driver to load the truck to his best estimate.
The driver will then transport the grain to the flour mill and drive onto the weighbridge there. The truck will be weighed when full and empty, to get the accurate nett weight of the load, and the driver can then enter the actual weight, or alternatively upload photos of the weighbridge printouts via the AMS app. The dispatcher receives timely information of the actual weight of grain transported so the farmer can be invoiced without delay."
An app that's easy and intuitive for truck drivers
Rural Transport delivers freight in South Island, NZ
Feedback from users has been positive according to Jim. Instead of requiring drivers to fill in paperwork or phone the office, each job is logged using fields that are customised to the company's business processes. It's simple, smart and user-friendly – even for old hands who are not the keenest adopters of technology.
"Legibility has been an issue in the past," says Jim. "But now our drivers have tablets mounted in their cabs they can quickly update the status of jobs via the app. Everything is tied to the job, with no need for back-office staff to check things or key in data a second time."
Sarah Bennett of HHA agrees that simplicity is a big benefit. "We have drivers who have never used a smartphone and never sent a text. They picked it up immediately."
Sarah goes even further – and sees the potential for AMS to make software integrators like herself redundant.
"AMS is one of the most fantastic products I've used. Customers can do a lot of the business process automation themselves – it's that flexible and easy to use."
• Rural Transport is a trucking company with 59 heavy trucks and trailers serving the needs of farmers throughout New Zealand's South Island.
• Each job is managed by a dispatcher at Rural Transport's head office. Historically, a paper docket was sent to drivers or instructions were delivered over the phone.
• Relying on paper-based processes and phone calls meant multiple data entry points and the risk of mistakes. It was also slow and inefficient.
• Software integrator HHA Associates used the AMS API to quickly and cost-effectively add a mobile app to HHA's web-based freight scheduling system. Because AMS is easily customised, app development costs were minimal.
• Jobs are now dispatched to mobile tablets in truck drivers' cabs. Drivers update each job's status in real time via the app, and can also add photos to certify delivery and stock welfare issues.
• If the device is out of mobile coverage, the app simply stores the data and automatically sends it as soon as coverage is restored.
• The user-friendly interface and robust nature of the AMS app facilitated uptake by truck drivers – many of who are reluctant users of technology.
• Rural Transport benefits from increased accuracy with one-time data entry and constantly updated job information. This facilitates speedy invoicing and minimises errors.

Donald Trump versus Democracy on November 3
President Trump's repeated refusal to abide by the results of the presidential election puts American democracy at risk to an extent unseen since the time of the Great Depression in the 1930s.
Republican senators who have enabled the worst of Trump's excesses in the White House have tried to dispel doubts about a peaceful transition of power after Trump's looming defeat. Those reassurances are empty of content, however, in the face of Trump's ability to marshal federal resources and his political base to try to thwart the will of the American voters.
Trump's bag of tricks to neutralize a second popular-vote loss, possibly much larger than his 2.8 million vote deficit to Hillary Clinton in 2016, includes vote suppression, voter intimidation, and vote-counting litigation and confusion after Election Day. He set the stage for challenging election results at the Republican National Convention in August by declaring that the only way he could lose was to "a rigged election."
His Democratic opponent, former vice president Joe Biden, had already warned as early as the spring that Trump would try to steal the election. Biden's Democratic primary opponent, Vermont's blunt-spoken independent senator Bernie Sanders, stepped up the rhetorical heat on the issue in a speech last week [Sept. 24] at George Washington University.
"This election is not about Joe Biden versus Donald Trump," Sanders declared. "This is about Donald Trump versus democracy."
Level-headed election experts and historians are warning of a constitutional crisis that can spread through courtrooms in several states and even into the streets. "We could well see a protracted postelection struggle in the courts and the streets if the results are close," says Richard L. Hasen, the nation's pre-eminent election law expert and a professor at the University of California-Irvine Irvine School of Law.
Trump's campaign organization is actively recruiting "an army" of supporters to help police potential voter fraud at polling place. Virginians in suburban Washington, D.C., got a taste of what is to come when early voters waiting in line for hours in Fairfax County were met by a throng of Trump supporters carrying Trump-Pence placards in seeming defiance of rules against electioneering at polling places.
Hasen has been warning of the dangers to electoral democracy all year, ever since he published his book Election Meltdown: Dirty Tricks, Distrust, and the Threat to American Democracy (Yale University Press) in February. Hasen identified four factors threatening the integrity of the 2020 election: voter suppression; incompetence in election administration; misinformation campaigns; and inflammatory rhetoric undermining faith in the integrity of elections.
A new threat to the election has now been reported in a disturbingly well-documented article by Barton Gellman, a staff writer with The Atlantic, published online last week [Sept. 23] under the headline "The Election That Could Break America." Gellman envisions a scenario that leaves the results of the election in doubt not only for the days of late ballot-counting in November but even into an extended interregnum that ends in Congress or at the Supreme Court, with two or perhaps three Trump-appointed justices.
Republican-controlled legislatures in battleground states might designate Trump-pledged electors whatever the results of the popular vote in the state. States have until December 8, thirty-five days after the election to make those designations. In his story, Gellman reported that Republican legislators in Pennsylvania are already discussing this scenario. As of late September, Biden leads Trump by 5 percent or more in pre-election polls in the Keystone State.
Gellman went on to note that Republicans control both legislative chambers in six of the most closely contested battleground states: Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Four of those states have Democratic governors — all but Arizona and Florida — who might be in a position to thwart the GOP legislators' effort by certifying electors in line with the popular vote.
Trump would remain as president throughout, up to January 20, with the power to direct his lapdog attorney general William Barr to send Justice Department attorneys into courtrooms to buttress challenges to vote counts. Vice President Mike Pence would be the presiding officer in a Republican-majority Senate with the power to rule on electoral vote challenges.
Gellman warns that whatever happens, Trump will not concede defeat, just as losing presidential candidates have done gracefully and respectfully ever since William Jennings Bryan acknowledged his loss in 1896 to William McKinley. Gellman, who worked in Al Gore's 1988 presidential campaign, also recalls that Gore bowed to the Supreme Court's decision in Bush v. Gore even with some avenues for legal challenges still open to him.
"Donald Trump may win or lose, but he will never concede," Gellman writes. "Not under any circumstance. Not during the Interregnum and not afterward. If compelled in the end to vacate his office, Trump will insist from exile, as long as he draws breath, that the contest was rigged."
Trump's MAGA-wearing supporters will believe him, just as they now believe his contrafactual warnings that mail ballots inevitably entail widespread voter fraud. Trump continues to call mail ballots a "scam" even as military service members use the time-honored procedure to exercise their rights. Republican campaign aides have been out in force already criticizing "activist judges" who extend deadlines for mail balloting in deference to what is expected to be an unprecedented crush of by-mail voting.
Polls indicate that Democrats are more likely to vote by mail than Republicans; thus, any challenges to late-arriving mail ballots are likely to disqualify more Democratic votes than Republican votes. In battleground states, those challenges could spell the difference between a Biden victory or a Trump victory: imagine a Florida-like recount that turns not on hanging chads but on voting-by-mail postmarks.

Place cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat and stir to dissolve sugar. Bring to the boil and cook for 3 minutes. Remove from heat, add lemon rind and juice and stir to combine. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Pour into 4 x ¾ cup-capacity (185ml) dishes and refrigerate for 3–4 hours or until set.
Preheat oven to 180ºC (355ºF). To make the wafers, place flour, icing sugar, eggwhite, butter and rind in a bowl and mix well to combine. Place a teaspoonful of mixture on a lightly greased baking tray and spread to create a 12cm strip. Repeat with remaining mixture, leaving space for wafers to spread. Bake for 6–8 minutes or until light golden. Cool on trays. Top pots with cream and serve with wafers. Serves 4.

Compressional velocities from multichannel refraction arrivals on Georges Bank: northwest Atlantic Ocean
By: L. D. McGinnis and R. M. Otis
Velocities were obtained from unreversed, refracted arrivals on analog records from a 48‐channel, 3.6-km hydrophone cable (3.89 km from the airgun array to the last hydrophone array). Approximately 200 records were analyzed along 1500 km of ship track on Georges Bank, northwest Atlantic Ocean, to obtain regional sediment velocity distribution to a depth of 1.4 km below sea level. This technique provides nearly continuous coverage of refraction velocities and vertical velocity gradients. Because of the length of the hydrophone cable and the vertical velocity gradients, the technique is applicable only to the Continental Shelf and the shallower parts of the Continental Slope in water depths less than 300 m. Sediment diagenesis, the influence of overburden pressure on compaction, lithology, density, and porosity are inferred from these data.
Velocities of the sediment near the water‐sediment interface range from less than 1500 m/sec on the north edge of Georges Bank to 1830 m/sec for glacial deposits in the northcentral part of the bank. Velocity gradients in the upper 400 m range from 1.0km/sec/km(sec−1) on the south edge of the bank to 1.7sec−1 on the north. Minimum gradients of 0.8sec−1 were observed south of Nantucket Island. Velocities and velocity gradients are explained in relation to physical properties of the Cretaceous, Tertiary, and Pleistocene sediments. Isovelocity contours at 100-m/sec intervals are nearly horizontal in the upper 400 m. Isovelocity contours at greater depths show a greater difference from a mean depth because of the greater structural and lithological variation. Bottom densities inferred from the velocities range from 1.7 to 1.9g/cm3 and porosities range from 48 to 62 percent. The most significant factor controlling velocity distribution on Georges Bank is overburden pressure and resulting compaction. From the velocity data we conclude that Georges Bank has been partially overridden by a continental ice sheet.

Kim M. Williams is Associate Professor of Public Policy in Harvard's Kennedy School of Government and an expert in racial and ethnic politics and political movements.
"This is a smart, sensitive and brave book on a topic—multiracialism—about which many dumb, insensitive, and cowardly things have been said. Williams deepens our empirical understanding of the topic through her research and our normative appreciation for the complexities of the matter through her wise and insightful commentary. An altogether welcome addition to America's ongoing conversation about race."
"This is a smart book; also a courageous one. Many have noted that the multiple-race option adopted in the 2000 Census was a turning point in the interplay of race statistics and public policy, and one not welcomed by civil rights advocates. Kim Williams, documenting the political and demographic realities behind this change, now steps forward to argue why those realities must be embraced by those committed to a vibrant civil rights agenda."
"If more and more people identify as multiracial in coming decades, analysts will turn to this book in order to understand what they are seeing. If multiracialism doesn't catch on, this will remain a fascinating and innovative book on an intriguing feature of the US's tortured racial history."
"Mark One or More: Civil Rights in Multiracial America greatly advances our knowledge about the multiracial movement and its significance for civil rights thought and advocacy in the twenty-first century. Williams persuasively argues that the established civil rights leadership can and must constructively engage the idea of multiracialism and not view it as a certain setback to civil rights."
"This is a brilliant and provocative examination of the politics surrounding the multiracial movement and where it fits in the ideological divides in American politics."

The family of Joe McDonough and AFT 1493 are delighted to announce the first recipient of the Joe McDonough AFT Social Justice Scholarship. This annual award of $5,000 is for a fulltime student engaged in a campus or community organization working for social justice.
Skyline student Leitu Takapu (in photo at left) is the winner for the 2015-2016 school year. After reading more than 70 applications, the selection committee unanimously agreed on Ms. Takapu. Ms. Takapu's opening words were, "Success can be defined in many ways. For me, being successful is … about having and making a positive impact on the lives of other people and giving back to our community." With the goal of becoming a social worker, she plans to get her AA in Interdisciplinary Studies of Social Behavior and a Certificate in Early Childhood Education. Congratulations to Leitu Takapu.
This scholarship is for a fulltime student who is engaged in the community and/or volunteer service. Students must have a declared major, demonstrated financial need and a minimum 3.0 GPA for consideration. Applicants must demonstrate participation in efforts to achieve a just and fair society for all.
AFT Local 1493's scholarship selection committee (AFT 1493 President Teeka James and Executive Secretary Dan Kaplan) is happy to announce the winners of the third annual AFT Local 1493 scholarships.
The two AFT scholarships, each in the amount of $1000, have been awarded to Cañada College students Elizabeth Sosa Cornelio (in photo below left) and Rita Melgar Martinez (in photo below right).
Elizabeth came to the U.S. from Mexico at the age of 15 to reunite with her mother and to attend high school. In addition to taking classes at Cañada, she works 20 hours per week to support her family. She is a math tutor in the STEM Center, and she is a Student Learning Assistant Mentor in the ESL Department. She also volunteers with a non-profit that focuses on teaching English as a second language to immigrants. Elizabeth is now pursuing an AA in Spanish and an AA in Latin American Studies. She wants to eventually earn a B.A. in International Business.
Rita came to the U.S. from El Salvador in 2007 with her daughter to be reunited with her mother "and to search for my own American Dream." Rita says that the two words that describe her well are perseverance and steadfastness. Thus far at Cañada she has obtained an A.S. in Network Engineering, a membership in the International Honors Society, Phi Theta Kappa, and the Dean's List. Rita has also participated in the MESA Cisco Shadowing/Mentoring Program, and the MESA Student Leadership Retreat, and in the Chicana Latina Foundation Leadership Institute.
AFT Local 1493 offers its congratulations to Elizabeth Cornelio and Rita Martinez, and wishes them both continuing success as they continue their pursuit of higher education.
