Kenneth Copeland - Faith And Finances (Jan.91).WMV
To buy Books, DVD's & CD Messages From Kenneth & Gloria Copeland Ministry go to: www.kcm.org ABOUT KCM Who We Are Over 40 Years of Connecting People With God's Love and Faith In May 1967, Kenneth Copeland was walking along the bed of the Arkansas River in Tulsa, Oklahoma, when the Lord dropped the vision of the ministry into his heart: to preach the gospel to the nations—a call that would include using every available voice to preach the uncompromised message of faith to meet the needs of people worldwide. It all started though with simple steps of obedience and faith, walking in love and the integrity of God's Word. In 1957 at 20 years of age, with a hit record, Pledge of Love, at #14 on the national charts and #1 on the local charts Kenneth looked to be on his way to a successful singing career appearing on American Bandstand and featured next to Ricky Nelson in Dig Magazine. But God had other plans. He met Gloria and asked her to marry him on their first date. She said yes. At that time, they lived in a rented apartment with a rollaway bed, coffeepot they cooked in and kept their food on the porch to keep it cold. Things were not abundant but as Gloria sat reading a Bible given to Kenneth from his mother one day she prayed, "God, take my life and do something with it." Shortly thereafter Kenneth became a Christian and five years later at the age of 30 he obeyed God, packed up his family, and moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to enroll at Oral Roberts University in spring of 1967. Kenneth applied to be Oral Roberts' co-pilot and he was made part of the flight crew attending all the tent meetings and crusades. It was during this time that he was learning exponentially through on-the-job training. Just a few months after Kenneth worked for Oral, God called him to start his own ministry and on September 7, 1967, Kenneth Copeland Ministries was birthed. "Kenneth Copeland Ministries was birthed out of love for the people and a commitment to bring people the Word," states Kenneth Copeland. "Our lives are totally wrapped up in ministering to the people. When we say, "We're here for you." we mean it to this point—everything we do, everything we preach, every broadcast we come on, everywhere we minister, everything we say and do is prayed, engineered, designed to minister to the people.... God called us to take His message of love and faith to the whole world. We care about you and we want to help you find the answers you need in God's Word. Kellie Copeland Swisher, Kenneth and Gloria's daughter, believes that is what sets Kenneth and Gloria apart. "People all the time use the phrases 'Word church,' 'Word people,' 'Word movement.'" states Kellie. "Forty years ago, faith was ambiguous. It wasn't a movement. To us, it was just a way of life. Mom and Dad said, 'If we see it in the Word, we're going to form our life around that. We're going to change our life to fit the Word.' It's the way we live our life. Every decision they make is formed around the Word." "Integrity and integrity in God's Word," continues John Copeland, son and CEO of KCM. "That's what this ministry has stood on for 40 years and will stand on for the next 40 years. People have said word of faith teaches that you don't ever have problems and that's just not true. Our families have been faced with adversities. Sometimes you just go through something. It's not that you don't face obstacles and don't face adversities, it's what you do when you are faced with those adversities. How do you handle yourself, what do you do? You have a choice. And we were raised not to just take it but to fight it, stand against it, believe God and the integrity of His Word and you will come out on the other side." Kenneth and Gloria have learned the principle of connecting to God in faith. By the Lord's blessing, they have taught their children, grandchildren and Partners the world over the power of connecting with God and His Word every day in every way in their life, making for a great heritage and legacy.

This is the first of half dozen of photographs, which Fred Daniels selected as his finest works, which first appeared in 'Tatler and Bystander' magazine in 1949.
'The ultimate test of a picture – he says – is can you live with it?' For Fred Daniels it evoked 'unforgettable moments of an autumn twilight in the woods'.
According to his words the finest picture shall possess 'a sense of perspective, a feeling of tranquility mingled with feelings of mystery and enchantment'.

Now that Feed Me Oil, this week's Xbox Live release is here, we're neck-deep in oily physics puzzle goodness. But that doesn't mean gamers don't look to the future as well – especially those who've had their fill of physics puzzlers already. Kudos then to Microsoft for announcing next week's Live release: geoDefense Swarm from Critical Thought Games.
geoDefense Swarm is the sequel to fan-favorite tower defense game geoDefense. The new entry switches from predefined enemy routes to a grid-based field. Enemies can approach from all directions, so players will need to construct mazes in order to keep them at bay. Like its predecessor, Swarm features an appealing neon geometric look and easy to learn gameplay. It will also likely suffer from balance issues, but said issues didn't keep its predecessor from winning many gamers' hearts. Most excitingly, the Windows Phone version of Swarm includes a new tower, a new creep (enemy), and new challenges. We'll find out what those challenges are next Tuesday or Wednesday when the game debuts.
geoDefense Swarm comes to Xbox Live on Wednesday, May 16 – if not the night before, as many Live releases have done lately. It will cost $2.99, the same price as its predecessor.
Thanks to Sam for the tip!

New media tactics alter face of election
November 06, 2006 by Erica Iacono
Mid-term elections are often a media snoozefest. Local races taking place in states that most Americans don't care about are usually lucky to garner even 30 seconds of airtime on the major cable networks.
But as the media has told us time and time again, these mid-term election races are different. They have the power to change the makeup of the House and Senate and with some very controversial subjects - stem-cell research and the war in Iraq - being used as wedge issues, coverage of the elections has been more prevalent and widespread than others in recent memory.
One likely reason for that is the increasing presence and importance of new media in this year's elections, which have forced mainstream media to often play a game of catch-up.
"The discussions and disputes that are being covered by the mainstream press are sometimes about what's being disputed within the Internet," says Stan Collender, MD at Qorvis. "The speed with which that happens is just astounding."
And it seems that mainstream media is carrying the "if you can't beat them, join them" mentality over to its mid-term election coverage. CNN is planning to incorporate bloggers into its election- night coverage, inviting a dozen bloggers from different sides of the political spectrum - blogs include Daily Kos, Captain's Quarter, Red State, and Crooks and Liars - to blog about the election returns and even other networks' coverage. CNN reporters Jacki Schechner, Abbi Tatton, and Alex Wellon will cover which issues are drawing the most chatter in the blogosphere on air.
David Bohrman, CNN's Washington bureau chief and head of the network's election coverage this year, says the network has experimented with including bloggers in broadcast content for a few years with political shows like The Situation Room.
CNN's move is not surprising, considering that bloggers and new media in general have not only been increasingly used as a medium for reporting the news, but as a political tactic as well.
"The Internet is a critical part of all political tactics," says Bohrman. "Blogs are the most aggressive part of that opinion-shaping. We're trying to report on a really interesting editorial component. The conversations are such that it would be wrong to ignore them."
But Tom Rosenstiel, director of the Project for Excellence in Journalism, thinks blogs may actually have lost cachet during this election cycle.
"Campaigns have taken over the blogs as part of the political operation and that's undermined the notion that blogs are citizen media," he says.
And certainly campaigns' use of not only blogs, but new media in general, has been rampant. Sen. George Allen's (R-VA) now infamous "macaca" remark at a political rally in Virginia only hit mainstream news after being posted on YouTube by someone in his opponent's camp.
Aside from the usual mudslinging and scandals that have taken place in an online setting, another reason why this election cycle has drawn so much attention is because of how the mainstream media has positioned it. A competitive race is one that makes a good story, and the fact that many of the races have the power to change the makeup of the House and Senate is a point that has been hammered home.
It is hard to open a newspaper today or watch one of the cable news stations without seeing stories of how this election may cost Republicans political control and how the party is in a state of panic. Rosenstiel says such stories may be indicative more of the media's hunger for stories that reflect change, rather than a partisan stance on the election's outcome.
"Change is exciting for journalists," he says. "I also think that for some journalists, but not all of them, a change from Republican to Democratic leadership is especially exciting."

I'm here, but I deep down didn't want to write today's update. I promised I would, and I know that it's a good thing to do.
You may recall that my primary goals for my fitness and weight loss journey are to lower my cholesterol and feel better physically. Weight loss for vanity sake is only my third reason. I sometimes wonder if the fact that I'm OK with my current appearance sort of hinders my progress to a degree. I'll reflect on that below but know that's not the only struggle I'm having.
This week, all I had to do was change last week's weight change minus signs to plus signs. Yes, the numbers were exactly the same, but in the opposite direction, zeroing out last week's progress. At least that spared me from looking up the kilogram equivalents. Maybe next week the weight change will go up again by the exact same numbers. Talk about lazy thinking!
Yes, my energy levels plummeted. I mentioned that I've been having some mood lability. Up down, up down, like the looks of a roller coaster. My energy goes down, but my weight goes up. I don't exactly feel depressed, but I'm totally unmotivated and have to force myself to do anything productive. I didn't track my eating. I didn't feel like cooking most days, which led to "quick" meals of the less than healthful varieties. I didn't go to the grocery store when I needed to, which reduced the healthful options more. Boo! Do I scold myself for this? Do I tell myself it's OK because I've been feeling unwell? I don't know.
Hey! I look thin in that mirror.
I'm prone to making excuses. "Well," I tell myself, "I don't really look bad physically." I know that I'm overweight, but I definitely don't obsess about it. I'm wavering between size 10 and 12 jeans, but I'm a good height and kind of large-boned and muscular from my days of ballet, ages ago. If I can manage to lose 13 pounds, I'll be at the high end of a normal BMI. I remember thinking I looked pretty darned good at that weight, especially for a mid-40s woman of my build. And sometimes I say, "My high cholesterol hasn't killed me yet." I sometimes tell myself that my current weight is the weight that "The Powers That Be" want me to be. Ha ha! Everyone in my family is chunky or have even reached obese. Oddly, I'm usually always the thinnest of our lot. Oh boy! That is dangerous thinking! It certainly doesn't help me on my weight loss and fitness journey.
Interim goals: I think I need to talk with my therapist about my mood slump and unproductive thinking. I need some help right now to get back on track. I could pledge to do this or do that, but until I get myself back to a better place and adjust my thinking, I highly doubt such pledges would be honored.
3.7 kg is amazing, keep going 🙂 you will get to your goal one day and feel amazing ..
Thank you. I am, and am not feeling guilty. I won't let myself go overboard, though. Take care!

Q: AtmosphereFramework in clustered environmet Is it possible to replace the default AtmosphereResourceFactory and AtmosphereResourceSession in order to be able to replicate atmosphereresources and sessions in the cloud and if yes how?
I'm using latest Atmosphere 2.2.4 and I'm also using Hazelcast support
Thank you in advance

A: yes, it is possible. AtmospherePro is exactly doing that (using Hazelcast as well). All you need to do it to write your own AtmosphreObjectfactory and inject your own implementation of the class above.

I was recently asked a question that made me dig in the Scriptures. The question was how many days did Noah and his family stay in the ark? On the outset of the question I was shocked because I didn't know the answer.
After reviewing Genesis 7 and 8 it was determined that Noah and his family were on the ark for a year and ten days. Don't you think that was a very long time to be that close to animals and the people in your family? Yes I think so. But it also says something else.
God will go through great lengths to protect us from the elements outside the ark of safety. That is something to think about. We will explore the ark from another angle in the next blog post.
For today know that God might have you in that tight and uncomfortable place in order to protect you from the elements outside.


Merging indie, rock and electronic influences in their songs, The Alchemy release their latest new video single 'Give Me The Sky', ahead of their album release and UK tour.
The quartet formed back in 2015, with their debut EP Modern Age in early 2016 firmly placing them with high regard amongst the press and strong fans. The Alchemy supported the likes of Mallory Knox, I Am Giant, and The Intersphere.
For fans of Lower Than Atlantis and Lonely The Brave, their new single is worth a listen.
'Give Me The Sky' was recorded in their hometown of Canterbury with the help of vocalist Rhys Taylor's Uncle, who had worked with Klaxons and Eagles Of Death Metal. The lyrics reflect the traumatic year Rhys had after his girlfriend was left unable to walk for a number of months following a car accident.
The video narrative follows the uncertainty of one of the last remaining survivors, who appears fighting for survival yet the repetition of lyrics "let go of your past" suggests to live in the present, despite the uncertainty of what can lie ahead.

Author(s): Tex Perkins
Singer. Songwriter. Swamp child. Soul man. Tex Perkins is a true rock'n'roll animal. In this loud, uncut, no-holds-barred, laugh-out-loud and take-no-prisoners memoir, the enigmatic king of the Australian music underground lays bare an extraordinary life lived on the road, on the stage and on the edge. Raised a bible-thumping Catholic and beaten bloody on the streets of Brisbane for being a "cow-punk", skinny Gregory Perkins flees to Sydney and mutates into "Tex", rogue leader of the Dums Dums, Thug and Salamander Jim before finding a strange kind of success, celebrity, sex symboldom and icon status as Tex Perkins, snake-hipped, honey-voiced, often bloodied frontman of influential Aussie bands the Cruel Sea, Beasts of Bourbon and Tex, Don & Charlie...and inventor of "Zoneball". Gigs. Albums. Tours. Fights. Feuds. Arrests. Drugs. High times. Low roads. This is a wild ride of a life written loudly, proudly and full of punk energy.
Tex Perkins is a singer-songwriter born in Darwin and raised in Brisbane. His music career spans four decades and includes frontman duties in over 20 bands including Thug, The Dum-Dums, Salamander Jim, The Dark Horses and The Ape, but most famously ARIA-award winning Cruel Sea, the legendary Beasts of Bourbon, smoky trio Tex, Don & Charlie and The Ladyboyz, fifth-best covers band in the land. When he's not performing as Johnny Cash in pubs, theatres or gaols across Australia, Tex is often found hosting Rockwiz, cheering St Kilda or playing Zoneball. He lives near Byron Bay with partner Krystina, their four kids and various cows, dogs and donkeys.

Russians Demand Change; Study Foresees Crisis
This May, the Center for Strategic Research (CSR) published a report entitled "Society and the Government During Political Crisis" The controversial document asserts that the full-scale political crisis in Russia is only escalating and presents scenarios for its further development. Overall, the CSR's prognosis for the current regime is unfavorable. IMR analysts detail the report's key provisions and review responses to it in the Russian media.
Magnitsky Act Passes, Russia Reacts
Olga Khvostunova
On June 26th, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed the Magnitsky Act, a bill prohibiting foreign human rights violators from entering the U.S. and giving the government the right to freeze their American bank accounts. While it was being developed, it became a source of tension in U.S.-Russian relations. As a result, in response to the bill's passage, Russian authorities have aimed their ire at foreign-backed NGOs. Nonetheless, despite the bill's symbolic significance, it will not seriously impact the bilateral relations between Russia and the United States, argues IMR analyst Olga Khvostunova.
The Human Rights Council Deprived of its Rights
Tatiana Stanovaya
The Kremlin has been pursuing an increasingly hardline policy toward autonomous and opposition-minded agencies. The law on the liability for participating or organizing protests has been made more punitive; opposition leaders have been subjected to apartment searches; the authorities have made the first arrests of the so-called 'provocateurs'. Now the Kremlin is flexing its muscle by imposing new regulations on the Presidential Council on Civil Society Development and Human Rights. Officials apparently believe that government-affiliated body has failed Putin's test of loyalty. The chasm between government and society is seemingly becoming unbridgeable. Tatiana Stanovaya, head of the Center of Political Technologies analytics department, describes the intricacies of the relationship between Russian human rights advocates and the government.
Spies at the Museum
On June 27th, 2012 the International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C. held a lecture entitled "The Russian Illegals Two Years Later: What Did It Mean?" Renowned intelligence historian and technical advisor to the U.S. Secret Service H. Keith Melton told the story of the Russian spies that rocked U.S.-Russia relations in July 2010. Guest of honor retired KGB Major General Oleg Kalugin decried the spies as absurd and said the Russian government was wasting its money.
On Superpowers
Alexander Yanov
For nearly a decade, challenging United States' dominance on the global arena has been the ideological cornerstone of Vladimir Putin's foreign policy. However, although they call for a multi-polar world order, what Russian diplomats really want is to restore Russia's lost grandeur and overthrow America as a superpower. With prominent examples from European history, Aleksander Yanov demonstrates how the absence of a global leader, such as the United States today, could hurl the world into chaos.

Dependence on oil exportation is one of the most controversial issues in Russian economics. In the course of many discussions, natural resources go from being considered a boon to being seen as a burden. However, as an independent financial analyst Igor Booth argues, the decelerated growth of the oil industry poses a much bigger threat than the Russian economy's distorted structure. The economy will only grow if the state policies regulating the energy sector are overhauled and public perceptions of the "oil curse" are overcome.
Politics Without Dialogue
Russian authorities continue to test the opposition movement's strength and determination. Earlier this month, a week before the March of Millions, the Duma passed a series of controversial amendments to the law on demonstrations. Several days later, the Investigative Committee of Russia searched the residences of prominent opposition leaders. According to IMR analyst Olga Khvostunova, the Kremlin's inability to engage in a dialogue with the opposition is what will lead to the further escalation of this conflict.
Vladimir Tumanov: A Master Lawyer Remembered
June 9, 2012 marked the first anniversary of the death of Vladimir Tumanov, a distinguished Russian lawyer, the former Chairman of the Russian Federation Constitutional Court (1995-97), and the first Russian judge to be appointed to the European Court for Human Rights. Just before this anniversary, Ekaterina Mishina spoke with some of his prominent former colleagues who shared their recollections about Tumanov's work, personality, and his role in developing Russian legal theory and culture.
The Kremlin's Five Strategic Errors
On June 11th, 2012, a day before one of Russian opposition's largest protest rallies, law enforcement officials conducted searches of ten opposition leaders' apartments, including those of lawyer Alexey Navalny, Left Front leader Sergey Udaltsov, television personality Ksenia Sobchak, and Solidarnost' Movement leaders Boris Nemtsov and Ilya Yashin. The opposition leaders were also summoned for interrogations, all of which were scheduled for June 12th at 11 AM, that is, an hour before the March of the Millions was set to start. The news of these raids spread through the Russian Internet like wildfire. On Twitter, #privet37 ("Hello,1937", referencing the year when Stalin's mass executions of "enemies of the people" reached their peak), appeared in the top five worldwide trending topics several times throughout the course of the day. Tatiana Stanovaya, head of the Center for Political Technologies analytics department, presents her take on the Kremlin's rationale.
The Kremlin's Vanity Fair
The largest annual book trade fair in the United States, BookExpo America (BEA), was held in New York City June 4-7, 2012. For the first time in BookExpo's history, Russia was named the guest of honor. Through the efforts of the Kremlin, over fifty of Russia's most renowned writers and numerous publishers were brought together in an unprecedentedly extensive program. However, questions remain regarding the showcase's intentions.

Annie (Mammasaurus) Spratt - Single Mums' Stories 5.
Better known as Mammasaurus, she is a leading light in the Blogosphere, prolific in her writing and support of all bloggers and has masterminded Love All Blogs, including Love New Blogs, and Love Cookery / Craft / Dad / Mummy / Photo Blogs with Love Music / Travel / Beauty / Fashion / Videos / Politics Blogs to come.
Annie has six other children, giving her a total of five lovely boys and three gorgeous girls, 16, 15, 13, 11, 10, 9, 3 and 2 and, as well as also working on finishing her first book, she has other projects on the go, one of which is supporting Black Dog Tribe, which was founded by the famous comedienne RubyWax, a baby born to her, to help raise awareness about mental illness and kill off the stigma which surrounds it.
We all know Mammasaurus to be original, creative, witty, clever, frivolous and outlandish. She says she's 'just a mum in a dressing gown writing stuff down that comes to her.' You've only got to take a look at this Christmas Karaoke of hers to appreciate how far from true this is!
Yet recently she wrote about Living in Cloud Cuckoo Land - sharing her experiences of living with mental illness. Looking back, she believes her first marriage broke down as a result of Post Natal Depression - something we haven't yet covered in this series of Stories from Single Mums. Her first husband is now one of her closest friends.
Here, she writes a very serious story along lines we are more familiar with. However the degree is nothing short of shocking. Her honesty is brutal and unnerving. It is about the break up of her second marriage and what happened when she became a single mum. Her message is sincere and important.
She serves as an inspiration to us all.

Thank you for having me my dear!
It's really important that you are doing this series of posts and must be taking some logistical organising extrodinaire !
Mammasaurus is indeed an inspiration and we are blessed to have her. I totally get the slow, systematic thing - so you don't realise it's happening. It's clever and confusing. My mother still likes to stay neutral, which is also confusing, not to mention hurtful and much more damaging than anything. She accused me of being patronising when I tried to show her - via a helpful book - why this works in favour of the abuser. Unsurprisingly, we are not on best terms either. These weak family links make us easy prey, but at least some of us find the courage to do what we need to do, for ourselves and for our children. The more who spell out that we deserve respect and support - not collusion - the better.
You are a total inspiration, and as a single mum I take my hat off to you. You've been through so much, and have come out of it stronger. Amazing.
You're exactly right. Feeling less alone is more empowering again. Thank you for that.
Brilliant post. Very honest. I'm sure this will help anyone else going through a similar thing. I can't believe he got access to the children after what happened. The whole story is so shocking.
It really is - atrocious. I'm so glad you are in a happier place now. You are clearly very strong. And Mother's just don't get it! Hopefully you and I and others will remember that when our kids are older, and will side with them!!
Wow. That puts it all into perspective. Thanks for telling your inspiring story.
As Older Single Mum is relaunching this series, I am catching up on the last series, and this most had my heart in my mouth.
Sorry Mammasaurus for what you went through. You are a legend. And one formidable strong lady.


The Supreme Court agreed Friday to a cigarette maker's request to decide whether tobacco companies can be sued under state law for allegedly deceptive advertising of "light" cigarettes.
The tobacco industry is trying to head off a wave of state-based challenges regarding the light cigarettes, even as it is appealing a federal judge's order to stop marketing cigarettes as "low tar," "light," "ultra light" or "mild" because they mislead consumers.
The issue before the justices is whether state laws against unfair marketing practices may be used in suits against the tobacco companies or whether federal law bars such lawsuits. The Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act says states can't impose any requirements on the advertising or promotion of cigarettes.
A federal judge initially threw out a suit filed by three Maine residents against Altria Group Inc. and its Philip Morris USA Inc. subsidiary that alleged the advertising of light cigarettes was unfair and deceptive.
The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston, however, reinstated the suit.
The Maine plaintiffs said they smoked Marlboro Lights, made by Philip Morris, for at least 15 years. They claim the company marketed the cigarettes as "light" and having "lowered tar and nicotine" despite knowing that those statements were false, in violation of Maine's Unfair Trade Practices Act.
The company has research, the plaintiffs say, that shows it knew that smokers of the light cigarettes took deeper puffs and used other techniques to ensure they received as much nicotine as they would have gotten from regular cigarettes.
Philip Morris said the lawsuit was properly dismissed by the federal judge and called on the Supreme Court to resolve a conflict between appeals courts over these sorts of lawsuits. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans last year dismissed a similar suit.
In the government's landmark case against tobacco companies, U.S. District Judge Gladys Kessler said the companies "distorted the truth about low tar and light cigarettes so as to discourage smokers from quitting."
That case is on appeal with the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.
A separate federal lawsuit filed by smokers is pending in New York. The class-action suit alleges tobacco companies violated federal racketeering laws by promoting light cigarettes as lower-risk alternatives to regular cigarettes even though their internal documents showed they knew the risks were about the same. The class may consist of as many as 60 million people, lawyers say.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York is considering whether the lawsuit can proceed as a class action or whether smokers must file suit individually.
The basics of the claims against the companies are similar in all the lawsuits: The companies knew that smokers may compensate for the lower tar and nicotine yields by taking deeper puffs, holding the smoke in their lungs longer or smoking more cigarettes.
The R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company filed a brief in support of its chief rival, saying the financial stakes in the case are enormous.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, also backing Altria, said the appeals court ruling could extend well beyond cigarette labels to product liability lawsuits against many industries.

Best Formula 1 Watches
As any F1 fan will tell you, excellence and precision are crucial in this motorsport. Of course, the same could be said for the art of watchmaking and timekeeping. Like the racecars in Formula 1 , an excellent watch is also a feat of brilliant engineering.
As the Official Timepiece of Formula One, Rolex's Chronograph Daytona timepiece – named after the iconic racetrack – is one of the best F1 watches. From Hublot to TAG Heuer, there are numerous F1 partnerships with global watch brands, which has led to numerous F1-inspired collections.
Whether you're simply fascinated by Formula 1 watches or looking to buy one for yourself, you'll love learning more about the best F1 watches available today. We'll look at different watch brand collaborations with Formula 1 teams and drivers – and, of course, the stunning timepieces they have spawned.
If you're looking for some other F1 merchandise, check out the awesome stuff at the official F1 store here.
The Best Formula 1 Watches
Since Formula 1 began, there have been numerous sponsorships and partnerships between F1 and different watch brands. Of course, these various partnerships take on many forms. For instance, Rolex has been the Official Timepiece of Formula 1 for nearly a decade.
However, many watch brands sponsor specific Formula 1 teams and players. For instance, Hublot is known for supporting the F1 Ferrari team. There are even instances when watch brands endorse certain players. When Richard Mille stopped sponsoring the Alfa Romeo team, they kept backing driver Kimi Raikkonen.
Over the years, these partnerships between Formula 1 and different watch brands have led to some great collaborations. There have been many instances where F1 racers are given input into the design of certain watches from these brands. These exceptional watches will often be limited to a certain number of units.
In terms of these limited-edition timepieces, many recent Formula 1 watches stand out. However, one of the best is IWC Schaffhausen's Ingenieur Chronograph Sport Edition "50th Anniversary of Mercedes-AMG" watch. Limited to 250 units, this watch truly celebrates Formula 1 and Mercedes.
Another Formula 1 watch from recent history that stands out here is Richard Mille's RM 50-03 Tourbillon Split Seconds Chronograph Ultralight McLaren F1 timepiece. The founder of this watch brand has long been a fan of motorsport, which is evident in this "literal racing machine for your wrist." This McLaren-inspired watch was limited to 75 units.
Many of these partnerships have also yielded fantastic watch collections from these manufacturers. Like the watches discussed above, these collections are also inspired by different Formula 1 teams. The timepieces in these collections are the perfect way for F1 fans to celebrate this motorsport and show off their pride in style.
Naturally, there are more affordable collections, such as Casio Edifice's AlphaTauri F1 watch collection. Casio unveiled a new group of limited-edition watches in the last six months inspired by this Formula 1 team. The watches in this set utilize the same carbon fiber used in the team's racing car wings and floors.
There are stunning timepieces available in TAG Heuer's Formula 1 collection. Their collection includes a core collection, special editions, and limited editions. With multiple timepieces available, buyers can choose a watch best suited to their lifestyle.
Of course, there are also collections with heftier price tags. As we mentioned earlier, Rolex remains the Official Timepiece for F1. A partnership of this magnitude deserves a fitting timepiece. This is abundantly clear in Rolex's Cosmograph Daytona timepiece collection.
Crafted from precious metals like platinum and named after an iconic F1 racetrack, the Cosmograph Daytona watches are every F1 fan's dream! Cosmograph Daytona watches are available in Platinum, White Gold, Yellow Gold, Pink Gold, and Oystersteel.
With so many collections and watches to choose from, many F1 fans are unsure of how to pick the perfect timepiece for their needs. There are two ways you can choose a watch! Firstly, you can consider the different watch brands partnered with F1 teams.
You may want to choose a brand that aligns with the team you support! However, it's also possible to consider the watch brand supported by your favorite racer. In the following sections, we'll break down everything you need to know about the watch brands associated with Formula 1!
10 Major Watch Brands Associated With Formula 1
From Rolex to Oris, numerous watch brands are associated with Formula 1. Of course, nearly all these brands were mentioned in the previous section. However, if you're looking for the best Formula 1 watch for yourself, these watch brands are the best place to start. Many even have signature F1 watch ranges for you to shop!
Rolex's involvement in motor racing dates back almost a century, so it comes as no surprise that Rolex is the Global Partner and Official Timepiece of Formula 1. This iconic partnership was formed in 2013, marking a new era in Rolex's history in motorsport. After all, millions of people consider Formula 1 the pinnacle of motorsport!
In terms of F1 racing, Rolex does not endorse a particular driver or team like many of the other watch brands. However, Rolex has plenty of responsibilities when it comes to this partnership. These responsibilities entail maintaining timekeeping equipment.
If you want to celebrate being a dedicated F1 fan, you might want to consider one of Rolex's Formula 1-inspired watches. A watch from Rolex's Cosmograph Daytona collection is for those with a passion for racing. The timepieces in this collection are engineering masterpieces that emphasize precision and efficiency.
In 2016, TAG Heuer began a partnership with Red Bull. This partnership proved successful, which was evident when Red Bull extended the sponsorship through to 2024. Of course, TAG's links to F1 go back even further: between 1984 and 86, TAG Porsche engines drove the McLaren team to three titles.
The collaboration with Red Bull has only strengthened the links between TAG Heuer and Formula 1. If your commitment to Formula 1 runs as deep as TAG Heuer's, you might want to consider one of the watches from TAG Heuer's F1-inspired collection.
TAG offers a diverse range of watches for buyers to choose from, allowing them to pick the perfect model for their lifestyle. This unique collection is designed to last. It's also the only watch series to feature a colored TAG Heuer shield!
Despite being one of the youngest brands on this list, Richard Mille makes some of the most expensive watches discussed in this article. In 2016, a long-term partnership between Richard Mille and McLaren was announced. Given that the founder is an avid motorsport fan, this comes as no surprise.
In addition to their partnership with McLaren, Richard Mille recently added Ferrari to their list of sponsors. In a statement, Richard Mille stated that they are committed to creating a solid collaboration with Ferrari, an iconic brand with an even more incredible history. This new partnership only strengthens this brand's ties to Formula 1.
Regarding Formula 1, IWC Schaffhausen has partnered with one of the most dominant teams: Mercedes-AMG. In 2010, Mercedes re-entered Formula 1. Three years later, IWC became its official watch sponsor.
IWC Schaffhausen added a unique touch to their branding for Mercedes-AMG by branding racing gloves. When the cameras are focused on the racecar's cockpit, F1 fans will be able to spot IWC's clever branding on the driver's gloves.
In 2019, IWC unveiled two limited edition Formula 1 watches. These Pilot's Watches were a tribute to Mercedes-AMG, featuring matte black ceramic cases and carbon fiber dials. Only time will tell which F1-inspired timepieces the watch brand unveils next!
Since Bell & Ross was founded in the early 90s, the brand has constantly been on runways and racetracks. Since 2016, Bell & Ross have been linked to Formula 1's Renault team. While the team was recently rebranded to the Alpine F1 team, their watch sponsor has remained the same.
Before Renault was rebranded, Bell & Ross had a collection of Renault F1 watches. However, to mark this new era, the company has unveiled its Alpine F1 collection of watches. The watches in this collection are sleek, with varied designs. There are also limited editions for the right fans!
Hublot was founded in 1980, making it one of the newer brands on this list. However, that doesn't mean Hublot's watches don't stand out among these competitors! For several years starting in 2011, Hublot was the official sponsor of the Ferrari team.
During this time, Hublot even gifted Sebastian Vettel with an exclusive timepiece. Due to the recent end of this partnership, finding a Hublot F1 watch may be tricky. Hublot's limited edition Big Bang King Power F1 watch can go for upwards of $24,000.
When compared to other watch brands on this list, Casio is one of the more affordable brands. In fact, Casio will arguably be the most popular brand among F1 fans. The reason for this comes down to the quality watches produced by Casio, which are both inexpensive and practical.
In 2020 Casio renewed its partnership with the Scuderia AlphaTauri F1 team. This partnership has proved to be fruitful, both for Casio and the AlphaTauri team. Casio's Formula 1 AlphaTauri Collection of watches reflects this, genuinely capturing the youthful spirit of this F1 team.
In 2003, Oris became the official watch sponsor for the Williams Racing team. This means that Oris was there for the heyday of the Williams team. This partnership lasted for 16 years, finally ending in 2018. However, many limited-edition Formula 1 watches were produced during this partnership.
These watches can be costly to purchase today, especially since the partnership has officially ended. However, many of these Oris F1-inspired watches can still be purchased today through various online stores, including eBay.
As we explained above, Oris ended their longstanding partnership with the Williams Racing team in 2018. However, you don't know that this left the F1 team without a watch sponsor for nearly two years. Luckily, British watch brand Bremont became the official watch sponsor of Williams Racing.
Consumers can shop for Bremont's Williams Racing timepiece collection on their official website. The watches in this stunning collection combine performance and durability. These Bremont x Williams Racing watches are the perfect way to celebrate one of the most iconic teams in Formula 1 history.
In early 2021, a partnership was formed between the Aston Martin F1 racing team and luxury Swiss brand Girard-Perregaux. Given that Aston Martin was absent from Formula 1 for more than half a century, this partnership makes sense. Both companies can respect their heritage while looking to the future.
The mutual admiration and respect between Aston Martin and Girard-Perregaux are evident when you look at the Laureato Chronograph Aston Martin Edition watch. While Aston Martin has long been absent from F1, its racing color has always been green. Commonly known as Aston Martin-Green, this color features prominently in this unique watch that celebrates racing.
The Watch Sponsors Of Formula 1 Drivers
Above, we looked at different watch brands that are associated with Formula 1. However, you might be wondering about the brands supported by your favorite F1 driver. What better way to choose a watch brand than looking at which brand your favorite racer uses?
Antonio Giovinazzi
Between 2019 and 2021, Antonio Giovinazzi was a part of the Alfa Romeo Racing team. During this time, fans of Giovinazzi would be able to notice the driver sporting Richard Mille watches. Although Giovinazzi now races in Formula E, there are many fantastic Richard Mille watches in his collection.
Carlos Sainz is a member of Ferrari's racing team, which means Sainz is sponsored by Richard Mille and will often wear their watches. In Sainz's watch collection, you'll find a Richard Mille Flyback Chronograph Roberto Mancini. This sleek and robust watch costs more than $350,000.
Charles Leclerc is a member of Ferrari's racing team. Due to this, Leclerc is currently sponsored by Richard Mille. In fact, the company's founder has stated that he's closely followed Leclerc's career for many years. Richard Mille knows that Leclerc will go down as one of the greatest drivers in his generation – why not let him wear one of the greatest watches?
As a McLaren racer, Daniel Ricciardo also supports Richard Mille. Fans of Ricciardo may be surprised to learn that the accomplished racer has a $2 million Richard Mille watch in his personal collection. You might be more surprised to find out this watch only weighs 32 grams, making it one of the lightest watches of all time.
As a member of the Alpine racing team, F1 fans will see Esteban Ocon sporting Bell & Ross watches. Many of these will also feature the company's unique bezel design. However, for their Alpine F1 watch collection, some striking timepieces deviate from this bezel design.
Like Esteban Ocon, Fernando Alonso is also a member of the Alpine team, which was formerly known as the Renault team. Like his teammate, fans will be able to spot Alonso wearing various Bell & Ross watches. Compared to other watch sponsors, Bell & Ross's F1-inspired watches start at more reasonable prices.
As a member of the Williams Racing team, you're likely to see George Russell sporting a Bremont timepiece. Of course, the team couldn't have chosen a better sponsor, with both partners sharing in their British heritage. There are many fantastic Bremont x Williams Racing watches available today.
Kimi Raikkonen was active in F1 racing for two decades between 2001 and 2021. When Richard Mille stopped sponsoring the Alfa Romeo team, it continued a partnership with Raikkonen. A Richard Mille watch was inspired by the racer and was limited to 30 pieces. Each Richard Mille RM 50-40 Kimi Raikkonen watch sold for more than $800,000.
As a member and part-owner of the Aston Martin Racing team, Lance Stroll supports Swiss watch brand Girard-Perregaux. Of course, this collaboration comes on the heels of Aston Martin's re-entry into the world of Formula 1. For Aston Martin Racing fans, a Girard-Perregaux watch may be the perfect way to show off their racing pride.
Lando Norris is an F1 McLaren racing driver. Due to this, the watches worn by Norris are made by Richard Mille, who has been partnered with the team for more than a decade. In 2020, Norris had his prototype Richard Mille watch stolen. Limited to a select number of units, the watch was worth more than £40,000.
Over the years, Lewis Hamilton has remained an IWC Schaffhausen fan. Since 2013, Hamilton has been a brand ambassador for IWC. Just last year, Hamilton featured in IWC's Big Pilot's Watch campaign. In fact, in 2019, Hamilton worked in collaboration with this brand to design a special edition of this watch.
If you look at the timepieces sported by Max Verstappen, you'll notice they're made by TAG Heuer. As discussed earlier, TAG's history with Formula 1 goes way back. Given that the TAG x Red Bull deal has been extended through 2024, you're sure to see Verstappen sporting more TAG Heuer watches in the future.
The son of Formula 1 legend Michael Schumacher, Mick Schumacher races for Haas. Since Mick's early days in F1, he has been backed by Richard Mille. While his racing team is no longer sponsored by Richard Mille, Mick has maintained a partnership with the brand. One of the watches in Mick's collection is a Richard Mille RM 11-03 Flyback Chronograph watch, which is valued at more than $500,000.
Like George Russel, Nicholas Latifi is also a member of the Williams Racing team. Bremont is, therefore, also the official watch sponsor of Latifi. Since the inception of their partnership, Bremont has released numerous Formula 1-inspired watches. Generally, the starting prices will be around $3000.
As a member of AlphaTauri's racing team, Pierre Gasly supports Casio. Casio Edifice watches were born from the fusion of precision and motorsport, so it makes sense that Gasly proudly supports Casio. One of Casio's limited AlphaTauri Edifice watches will be perfect for displaying your team's pride!
To put it bluntly, Sebastian Vettel is the new face of Aston Martin's return to Formula 1. As a driver for Aston Martin's team, Vettel is partnered with Swiss brand Girard-Perregaux. If you look at Vettel's racecar, you'll see the Swiss company's branding; if you look at Vettel's wrist, you'll see a Girard-Perregaux watch.
As a Red Bull driver, Sergio Perez also sports watches from TAG Heuer. As a team, TAG and Red Bull are in pursuit of excellence. The passion shared is evident in TAG's Formula 1 range of watches. To celebrate your love for Red Bull Racing, you might want to consider TAG's F1 Red Bull Racing Special Edition.
Valtteri Bottas is another F1 driver that has partnered with IWC Schaffhausen. In a recent interview, Bottas stated that this partnership allowed him to learn more about watchmaking. Bottas also said that he first began collecting watches at the age of 14. For fans of Bottas, IWC may be the perfect watch brand to go with!
Due to the longstanding partnership between Casio and AlphaTauri, F1 racer Yuki Tsunoda supports Casio. In fact, one of Tsunoda's race day essentials is his faithful Casio Edifice EQB-1000AT watch. If you're an AlphaTauri supporter, a Casio watch might be the perfect way to show off your team pride!
Motorsport and timekeeping have much in common. Due to this, there is a long history of partnerships between Formula 1 and different global watch brands. Of course, Rolex remains the Official Timepiece of F1, with a unique Chronograph Daytona collection to celebrate this partnership.
However, there are numerous watch brands that have sponsored drivers and teams. These partnerships have also resulted in many special edition watches. When choosing a Formula One watch to buy, fans need to consider these different partnerships and sponsorships.

Best F1 Engine Manufacturers Of All Time
Does Formula 1 Race At Nurburgring?


In 2014, I have read three books by Minnesotan Kent Nerburn. I know him for his stories on Native Americans.
Last week as I searched for new books for the bookstore I volunteer at, I found a book written in 1999 by Mr. Nerburn titled Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace, Living in the Spirit of the Prayer of Saint Francis. I have long believed that St. Francis's prayer is the perfect prayer. That conviction was made stronger when I read Timeless Wisdom by Eknath Easwaran. The heart of this Hindu's book is the prayer of St. Francis. I was a bit surprised when I learned that Mr. Nerburn had written a book with this title. I ordered some copies for the bookstore. They arrived this morning, and I purchased one for myself.
It gives voice to our faith without asking us to turn our backs on those who have chosen other paths. It is so pure, so human, so universal in its expression, that no good-hearted person of any faith would stand against it.
I so agree with his assessment. Mr. Nerburn concludes his introduction with this story, the most beautiful story I have ever read, and it is only two sentences long.
There is a story told by some of the Native American peoples about the stars in the midnight sky. Each star, they say, is a hole pierced in the veil of heaven by souls that have died, and the light that shines through is the light of God, the Great Spirit, the Great Mystery.
Can any definition of the infinite number of stars that populate our midnight sky be any more beautiful, any purer? Please let me know if there is.

We will always try to discuss with you and your child who we need to talk to and what we're going to say, in a supportive and open way.
Who will be told that my child is coming to CAMHS?
Usually, the person who has referred your child and your doctor (GP) will know that your child is coming to CAMHS. It's up to you whether or not you tell other people that this is the case.
Unless it is an emergency, we won't talk to other people about your child without discussing it with you and your child first. Some young people find it helpful to let their school or others know so that people around them are more aware that they are having a difficult time. We can do this with you or for you if you would like.
What will I know about my child's treatment?
Because of the important role that you have in your child's life, we will involve you wherever possible in their treatment, and encourage communication between you and your child. There are some things that your child might want us to keep private. We respect their wishes and what they tell us in individual meetings remains confidential, unless we become concerned about their safety or the safety of others.
If you have any other questions about privacy or confidentiality please talk to your child's CAMHS worker.
