In Part I, we discussed that one volunteer who continually frustrates the leaders of the church because he will not fully align with one ministry, one leadership, one church. To minimize those types of individuals from decreasing the effectiveness of servanthood, leaders need to ask themselves the following three questions.
You, the leader, first need to decide if you want to be a pickup team or a championship team.
You must be willing to have the difficult conversations with your servants that go along with that commitment.
You cannot be so desperate for people and volunteers that you are willing to lower the bar and allow anyone to play.
You must cast the vision and set the bar accordingly to create and obtain championship team status.
Jesus made it clear that following Him included a steep cost and He wasn't going to lower the expectations to accommodate people.
The bar was set, and He was committed to those who were committed.
Believe in your people, and they will aspire.
The best thing a leader can do is believe in his/her team. People want to be inspired and reach new heights. That's what makes a championship team. Not everyone, when challenged, will want to do what it takes to put on the jersey. Like Jesus, it's still our job to believe in our volunteers and inspire them "to take up his cross daily and follow (Jesus)." Luke 9:23 (ESV). Luke 12:48 (ESV) tells us "to whom much was given, of him much will be required." Don't cheapen the mission because of fear of losing or offending people. Believe you are building a championship team with your volunteers.
If you only accommodate 'pick-up players' – you'll lose the championship players.
Gideon had his 300 and David had his mighty men.
Pastor, I want to give you permission. I want to empower you. It's ok to be a Gideon Leader, to send some back home to the task of the farm.
If you form a championship team then your church will transform your community.
Have you experienced that one volunteer? That one in your ministry group who seems to always be out of alignment with the team? As the leader, you've tried everything to encourage cohesion between him and the rest of the members, but no tactic you try seems to solve the issue.
I remember a servant on our team who seemed to cause frustration in every ministry he chose. A nice guy, but ultimately frustrating to the leader. We'll call him George.
I let him lead a group, but I won't let him speak at an event. I found out last week he spoke at another church.
He helps me out on Sundays but spends his time volunteering at other churches during the week.
I don't feel like I can depend on him because I never know where he's at or where he's going. Is it wrong to be frustrated he is serving at other churches?
That's when it dawned on me. George is a 'pick-up ballplayer' wanting to play on a 'championship team.' Pick-up ball is a term used for community basketball games.
Anyone who likes to play for sport shows up at the neighborhood court with their basketball and waits for enough players to form two teams.
The games last until one team reaches 21 and when everyone has had enough, they all go home, satisfied with getting in a good workout.
Pick-up games are meant to play with whomever, whenever.
The commitment is to the game, not the team.
However, the formation of a championship team is approached quite differently. To play for the NBA, a major commitment is mandatory before one even steps on the court.
Hours of practice have been logged consistently before ever putting on a team jersey.
Players who earn a spot on a championship team have a heart and vision for the team.
It's a commitment to a specific group of people all playing for a common goal of achieving victory together.
Most people want to be part of a championship team, but few know how or what that entails. To lead that type of ministry experience, the leader has to answer three important questions.
Do you want your team to play pick-up ball or strive for the championship?
Do you believe the members of your team have what it takes for the championship?
Are you accommodating pick-up players at the risk of losing championship teammates?
In Part II of this blog, we'll look at the answers to these important questions.
Pastoring in a small town is greatly impacted by how we create a healthy culture, not only in our church but also in our city.
One of the ways that we have done this is through our men's ministry.
Several years ago we decided if we could build strong men it would affect the whole family. Little did we know the difference it would make in our entire church. Today someone from the community said, "I can tell that you are making disciples at your church because they are living it out in our community." Wow! That is about the highest compliment a pastor can receive.
The secret sauce is consistency. Anything you do over and over can seem boring, but growing up is a lot about consistency.
The first thing we did, and are still doing, is what is called Men's Fraternity. It is a video teaching series that goes in three-year cycles and teaches men what true manhood is all about. I like one of the phrases used in our group, "If you cannot define manhood, you may not be one yet." It is amazing the answers you will get when you ask a man to define manhood. We define manhood in Men's Fraternity.
We have found that the combination of Men's Fraternity and an event called The Return was like pouring gas on a fire. The Return is based on the story of the prodigal son. He came home and was restored to his position in the family as a son. There are four steps that we take the men through to connect them to a father/son relationship with heavenly Father. The four basic steps to accomplish this are; examination, tear down, rebuild, and celebrate. We have found that these men come home free from condemnation and connected to the Father. It is amazing to see the freedom, and it has been a lasting freedom for most of the men!
My team and I can help you set up these ministries in your church if you desire. However, I believe there are a number of things you can do to get great results. The men's ministry is just one way we have impacted our church and community.
There is a great story in the Bible that illustrates for us the importance of listening to the voice of God for our life and ministry. It is found in Exodus 18:1-12. In this story Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came to Moses while he was camped at the foot of Mt. Sinai.
The Scriptures say that Jethro brought to Moses his wife and his two sons. What?
Why weren't his wife and two sons with him?
Why did Jethro have to bring Moses' family to him?
What a strange story! God shows up to Moses as he is journeying to Egypt to deliver Israel and says, "I'm going to kill you Moses." What? Why?
God gave Moses a ministry. It was to lead the children of Israel.
God gave Moses a mission. It was to deliver Israel from Egypt.
God also gave Moses a marriage.
It was Moses' marriage and family that wasn't right. Moses had not circumcised his two sons. God was angry with Moses. Moses couldn't fulfill his ministry or mission if his family wasn't right before God. I believe Moses sent his wife (Zipporah) and his two sons (Gershom and Eliezer) back to Midian after this incident.
Let's think about this for a moment. Zipporah, Gershom, and Eliezer missed the mighty miracles in Egypt, the miraculous Red Sea crossing, the bitter waters made sweet, the supernatural provision of manna and water, and the amazing defeat of the Amalekites.
They missed the visitation of God.
Moses, in trying to protect them from the dangers of Egypt, ended up shielding them from the amazing work of God.
I remember reading a book called "Halftime." The author of the book talked about reassessing your ministry at the halfway point of your life. I was 45 years old when I read the book. I felt God was speaking to me to add short term mission trips to my ministry. I still remember the conversation I had with my wife. I asked her, "Would you come with me?" Her response was resolute. She said, "I don't want to miss out on anything. I want to serve the Lord with you. I don't want to hear about your trip. I want to experience God with you." My wife was the opposite of Zipporah. My wife is my spouse, my friend, and my accountability partner. We do life and ministry together.
Let's jump ahead approximately three months in our story. Here comes Jethro, bringing Moses' family to him as they camped at Mt. Sinai.
Jethro means excellence in Hebrew.
Jethro was the voice of excellence to Moses.
Jethro represents the voice of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Jethro wanted to reconnect Moses with his family.
Jethro knew that for Moses to be successful in his ministry and mission he had to journey with his family.
We need to learn this truth.
No amount of success in the ministry can compensate for failure at home.
All ministry begins in the home.
How's your marriage? How are your children? Are you leading them well? Let's reconnect with our family. Let's make sure they are loved and valued.
The Holy Spirit has repeated this revelation in my spirit since the very beginning of my salvation experience. I have served God for 42 years, and been in full time ministry for 33 years. "Because He lives, I shall live also" has been an anchor and hidden strength in the face of the enemy. It has been this revelation that has kept me through every season.
You cannot kill a God ordained heaven sent calling.
You cannot kill the Holy Spirit inside of me.
He is invincible. He is brilliant. He is in me! I am alive.
He whispers this to me when I've endured the deep waters of trials.
When I've faced the fierce attacks of the enemy.
Yes! Joseph was still alive!
Yes! I am still alive!
Yes! You are still alive!
Because He lives, you shall also!
At times we can find ourselves saying, "This is amazing! I didn't expect this! This is more than I hoped for!" I think Ruth must have experienced this when God ordered her steps in Boaz's field. She was brought into a life she never expected.
Sometimes we come into distressing circumstances. We hear ourselves say, "I didn't expect this." Our hope is crushed and our future looks dark. Yet, like the Philippian jailor in Acts 16:27-28, we can get an "unexpected expectation." I mean the kind of "unexpected expectation" that rises up in our spirit because of the Holy Spirit Who lives in us. Whereby we surprise ourselves as we hear ourselves say, "Where is this expectation coming from?!" Light breaks through the darkness in our spirit.
May the hand of God and the quickening power of the Holy Spirit break into your life and bring you an "unexpected expectation." Truly our expectation comes from Him (Psalm 62:5)!
The role of the Evangelist is the same as the rest of the five fold ministry gifts; to build up the body of Christ. Regardless of which office you stand in and are called to, we all have the responsibility of training and equipping people so that they can DO the work of ministry.
When I answered the call and stepped into the office of the Evangelist a little over 15 years ago, I thought my role was to preach the Gospel and get people to ask Jesus into their hearts. Although that is at the surface of what an Evangelist's work entails, it goes deeper than that.
The work of an Evangelist is to help people discover who they are and why they were created – to know the purpose of their existence. We do that by introducing people to the One Who created them! It's about creating an environment where people can do more than hear the Gospel, but also have an encounter with the Author of the Gospel. On the Conquerors we call this Presence Evangelism and we take our cue from the Greatest Evangelist that ever walked this planet….Jesus Christ!
Jesus proclaimed the Kingdom and demonstrated its power. And that is how we help and assist in building the church and advancing the Kingdom. We use proclamation of the Gospel of the Kingdom in tandem with a demonstration of the Kingdom's power!
"For the Kingdom-realm of God comes with Power, not simply impressive words." 1 Corinthians 5:20 (TPT).
This is not a Pentecostal method or a Charismatic method, but the Kingdom method demonstrated by the King!
The Evangelist – The Kingdom's special forces inserted into enemy territory to conquer and gain territories.
The Pastor – The Kingdom's occupational force and ruler of occupied territory.
The Apostle – The Kingdom's general who oversees several occupied territories and strategizes the overthrow of several more territories.
The Prophet – The Kingdom's communications officer who conveys both encouragement and orders from the Commander In Chief.
The Teacher – The Kingdom's trainer and overseer of implementing the culture of the Kingdom.
My despair and fear would all be over if I ended my life. A voice raced through my mind and said, "This will all be over if you kill yourself." For a brief moment I considered the thought. This was a suicidal thought that came from the devil at a very low time in my ministry. Jesus was right, "The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy." (John 10:10) My adversary was looking to take me out.
Prolonged discouragement led me to that horrible place of despair.
I was discouraged because of unmet expectations in the ministry, broken relationships in my leadership team, and a sense of personal failure.
I felt I should have done so much better as a spiritual leader in my church. After all, I had read all the books, attended the conferences, and had successfully grown the church for years.
I learned a valuable lesson. Past successes do not guarantee present or future victories.
Suicidal thoughts afflicted men of faith in the Scripture. Moses, Jonah, and Elijah were three men of God who experienced great despair. In Numbers 11:15, Moses prayed to the Lord. He said, "If You treat me like this, please kill me here and now—if I have found favor in Your sight—and do not let me see my wretchedness!" Jonah prayed, Jonah 4:3 "Therefore now, O Lord, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live!" Elijah prayed that he might die (1 Kings 19:4).
How did I pull myself out of this dark hole? It wasn't easy, because the battle continued to rage for months.
The first thing I did was cast down the imagination. I recognized it as a demonic thought. It came from outside of me. It shot through my mind like an arrow. I rebuked the thought and it fled from me.
Next I put on the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. I would offer the sacrifice of praise during my devotional time with God. I would worship in church with tears in my eyes. My wonderful wife would play praise music all night long to lift the cloud of darkness. Night time was the worst time.
Thirdly, I read the Psalms. I would read 10 Psalms every day. They came alive to me. They spoke to me, comforted me, and armed me for battle. God spread a table before me in the presence of mine enemies (Psa. 23:5).
Finally, I memorized Psalm 23 and the Lord's Prayer and recited the prayers throughout the day. God used these Scriptures to become my intercession. God used these prayers to focus my attention on higher things.
It took time. It took prayer. It took perseverance. The Lord brought me through the dark valley. I know He can do the same for you. I can say this with all confidence.
The sun will shine again. God will make everything beautiful in its time. The end of the Lord will be good.

Q: Style floating table headers So I've been trying to accomplish getting floating table headers to work. Unfortunately I cannot use something like floatThead jQuery library as I need to hover different rows as you scroll through the table so I've come up with my own solution based on various other SO answers.
However, the problem is that the styling of the floating header does not match the styling of the non-floated header and I'm not sure why that is or the proper way to fix this.
Here's a jsFiddle illustrating my current code. The issue is that the first floating header which has different columns does not match the sizing of the non-floating header even though they both have percentage widths (that add up to 100%).
The important javascript:
var persist = $(".persist-area");
var z_index = 900;
var count = 0;
persist.each(function() {
    var el = $(".persist-thead>tr", this);
    el.before(el.clone()).css({"width": el.width(), "top": "0px", "z-index": "899"}).addClass('floating-thead');
    $(".persist-header", this).each(function() {
        var clone = $(this);
        clone.before(clone.clone()).css({
            "width": clone.width(),
            "top": (0 + el.height()) + "px",
            "z-index": "" + z_index
        }).addClass("floating-header").removeClass("persist-header").attr('id', 'floating-header-' + count);
        z_index++;
        count++;
    });
});

and css:
.floating-thead,
.floating-header {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    visibility: hidden;
}

.floating-thead > td,
.floating-header > td {
    display: inline-block;
    text-align: center;
}

A: Your trouble is the cells in the floating row are display: inline-block, which means the whitespace between elements has an effect on the rendered output.
Much more on ways around that in this answer (tldr: standard workaround options: remove the whitespace in your markup (easy), don't provide the closing tag (clearly bad practice, potentially risky), or make the font size for the parent element 0 and then specify the correct font size for the cells)
In your case though, you can just make them display: table-cell (just like the non-floating rows' cells).

Q: Close window without closing application How to close a window without the application quitting? does not address my question, strangely.  I don't want to hide the application windows like Cmd+h does, and Option+click didn't actually do anything for me, and isn't what I want anyway.
I work with a lot of different application windows, especially with the browser and the terminal (I'm a software engineer and run my coding editor, debuggers, servers, etc. from the terminal and am constantly switching between term windows and tmux sessions to develop/troubleshoot our solutions).  Sometimes (actually, most of the time), when I finish with a session, I want to close the window without closing the application.  I make heavy use of keyboard shortcuts, so it interrupts my flow to have to grab for the mouse and point->click the corner to close the window.
Is there a way to get a shortcut to close windows in OS X without closing the entire application?  This is really interrupting my flow and productivity.
I'm using Mavricks, btw.  I've also tried iTerm2 and the default Mac Terminal but couldn't find anything that lets me do this in either of those applications.  Chrome also doesn't seem to support closing just a Window.  Either terminal is fine, I have things configured to the point where tmux eliminates my need for a fancy terminal, because Tmux can do it anyway, plus some.

A: Have you thought for a keyboard combination like cmd+w?
In Google Chrome you can close all tabs with cmd+shift+w, in Safari the same way.
Alternatively you can write an AppleScript like tell application "Terminal" to close front window or as terminal command: osascript -e 'tell app "Terminal" to close front window'.

A: This could also help you for the same.

Shropshire, Staffordshire, Shrouds and Shoes – Part 1
This is, I hope, going to be an on-going record of my progress in researching a family tree from scratch. This recurring section of my blog will record my research highs, lows, successes and failures, brick walls and hopefully their demolition. I have no set timetable to complete this, so there may be gaps of several weeks between updates. But finally I aim to piece together the history of my husband's family and write some individual stories. Part 1 describes the preliminary phase of my research.
This particular project is inspired by my mother-in-law. A few weeks ago she announced she had a family bible, complete with a record of a couple's marriage and the births and deaths of their children. There was also a series of non-conformist quarterly meeting cards. She was unclear exactly how they connected to her and so she loaned me the impressively weighty Victorian tome to see if I could discover more. Within days she added to this treasure, with the discovery of a totally unrelated bundle of documents containing assorted certificates, an apprentice indenture, baptism and burial documentation, and a will linking to various branches of her maternal and paternal line along with some others connected to my now deceased father-in-law's family.
19th century family bible
So a wealth of documents to get me started, far more than other families I have researched. I feel a bit like a kid in a sweet-shop – so many choices. But I am focussing on one branch at a time rather than adopting a scattergun approach. And I am being disciplined in recording my information sources, as well as any searches (both succesful and unsuccesful), far more so than when I started our researching my family tree. Hopefully this will save time as I progress.
With this in mind my first line of research is my mother-in-law's paternal line, starting with her father William John Haynes. The reason for starting here is that his is the most complete set of documents in the parcel of papers, with his birth, marriage and death certificates along with various other papers chronicling the key stages of his life. The bible does not relate to this branch of the family.
William Haynes' birth certificate states that he was born on 27 February 1904 at Elford Hill, Eccleshall, Staffordshire. He was the son of master wheelwright, Joseph Thomas Haynes and his wife Maria (neé Yates). By the time of William's marriage to Ada Eardley on 15 September 1929, William's father was described as a funeral undertaker. This information was a catalyst for a rather unusual memory for my mother-in-law. She recalled staying at her grandfather's house and sleeping in a bedroom full of shrouds! According to GRO indexes he died in 1958, in his early 90's.
A preliminary search revealed that J Haynes undertakers still exists at Eccleshall, with the website providing a brief resumé of the buisness.[1] So in my later research I intend exploring the life and business of Joseph Thomas Haynes.
However, based on the information provided by my mother-in-law, my first week or so's research has centred around the 1841-1911 census returns and the odd foray into parish records. Using this combination of online sources I have constucted a basic skeleton of a family tree. This is reproduced below.
Haynes Family Tree
The census search has proved fairly routine. No real difficulties tracking back to 1841. I used both the Ancestry and FindMyPast UK sites to do this. The only minor hurdle was finding William's great grandfather, James Haynes, in the 1851 census. Although he was there in the 1841 census and then from 1861-1871, there was no trace of him in 1851. At this point I consulted on-line parish registers available for Shropshire on FindMyPast. Through the censuses I had located seven possible children[2] for James Haynes and his wife Ann. I then identified their baptisms in the Parish Registers for the parishes of Edgmond, Longford and Church Aston in Shopshire. This provided the breakthrough. The youngest children bore the surname "Haynes Parker" or "Parker Haynes". Only the youngest child George was born post-GRO registration. His baptism in 1838 is under the name Haynes-Parker, his GRO registration surname is Parker with Haynes being listed as a middle name.[3] Eldest child, John, was baptised on 10 January 1824 at Edgmond Parish Church with the surname Parker and no mention of Haynes. From this information it was now easy to locate James in the 1851 census – recorded under the name Parker not Haynes.
It also proved a breakthrough in locating James' marriage. At the time of the 1851 census James' mother-in-law Ann Hamlet resided with the James and Ann. The Parish Register of Stoke on Tern, Shropshire has a marriage on 31 March 1823 between James Parker and Ann Hamlet. The Shropshire Parish Registers also provide a possible baptism for James in June 1797 at Lilleshall[4], illegitimate son of Ann Parker.
So if possible I would like to find out a little more about the reason behind this transistion of surname from Parker to Haynes, which took place during the late 1820's to the early 1860s.
James' son Joseph (1834) is the grandfather of William Haynes. Born in around 1834 the Shropshire Parish Registers show that he was married by licence at Aston in Edgmond on 10 February 1859. His bride was Mary Webb, daughter of William. My husband says there is a family story that they are somehow connected to Captain Matthew Webb, the first recorded person to swim the English Channel. As yet, even despite this now shared surname, I have found no evidence to support the anecdote. My husband's Webb Ancestry from the 1800's appears to be Staffordshire based, with pre-1800s possibly Shropshire. A preliminary look at Captain Webb shows he was born in Shropshire in 1848. But it is something else to explore.
Of more immediate interest is an occupational connection between William Webb and the Haynes male line. They were all wheelwrights. By the turn of the 19th century the Haynes family were diversifiying adding building, joinery, carpentry and undertaking to their trade skill set. In the late 1860's they moved from Shropshire to Stone, Staffordshire to ply their trade and appear to have been extremely succesful at it. I had a quick look at the image archive on the Staffordshire Past-Track website[5] and was amazed to find images of Haynes and Sons, Wheelwrights. This contains photographs of family events as well as ones of their business, including images of portable bandstands (one produced below)[6] manufactured by the family firm. So again this is another aspect of the family history I intend exploring.
12 May 1910: Proclamation of the Accession of George V, Stone read from the portable bandstand in Granville Square. The portable band stand seen here was the first of its kind and was manufactured by Haynes and Sons, wheelwrights, of Station Road, Stone, and was purchased by Stone Urban District Council. See Copyright footnote at [6]
Finally I quickly looked at the family details of William's mother Maria (neé Yates). Her father John was a shoemaker, born in around 1830 in Stone, Staffordshire. John's wife Ann and all his children were engaged in this trade. I traced John back to the 1841 census, living in the household of bricklayer James Thornhill and Ann. Other household members included George Yates (14) and Joseph Yates (7). From GRO indexes it appears that James Thornhill married Ann in 1838.[7] So this is a certificate I would like to obtain to see if Ann's name was Yates and to find out her background to see how this fits in with John.
I think the most satisfying aspect of researching my mother-in-law's tree is her sheer delight at each new discovery. Of late she has struggled with memory issues, but this research is rekindling long forgotten episodes in her life. It is an absolute joy for all concerned when some new find triggers the recollection of something buried deep in the recesses of her mind; or, because she knows I am working on her tree, she suddenly recalls some other fact or story. For example she thought her family routes were in Staffordshire, but when I identified a significant Shropshire connection she recalled her parents visiting family in that county. So this process is proving fascinating for me and an interest for her.
My next steps will be to try to flesh out the tree further with online parish records and the ordering of BMD certificates (oh, for that certificate price reduction, but sadly this research cannot wait!). Then to try to fill in the details of the individuals, their occupations and the times and areas in which they lived. I will return to this portion of my blog later in the summer.

A Language of the Sacred
Claudia Terstappen is seduced by rituals and magical practices. In her photographs, she looks at temples, shrines and the objects used in ceremonial practices; she also explores the concept of the spirit of place that is the foundation of many indigenous cultures.1
Terstappen is interested in belief and hope, and she wants to know how the shaman heals and what this means for the ways in which the human mind and spirit work. But this is not a new age encounter with the spiritualities of others, it is more an investigation of hopes and promises and how these are delivered by abstract languages like ritual and prayer. In times of crisis, when governments and societies fail, people, often en masse, turn to their gods, their spirits, their shamans and their magical practices to regain a sense of place and security. Terstappen wants to know how this works.
When I probed the artist about what she believed, she quoted Ludwig Wittgenstein to me. She said: 'We feel that even if all possible scientific questions be answered, the problems of life have still not been touched at all'.2
It is intriguing that an artist taking photographs of sacred sites and places of worship would be interested in someone like Wittgenstein. He was, after all, a logical positivist and associated with the Vienna Circle of the 1920s which rejected metaphysics and theology. Wittgenstein meditated on the nature of language, how language works; he probed language games as a linguistic philosopher and concluded that the puzzle of philosophy grew out of a misunderstanding of how language operates.3
At first this language of the rational seems far away from the monumental photographs of landscapes and shrines that have a spiritual meaning for thousands of people in distant/different cultures. One writer has said that Terstappen examines spirituality 'in an almost anthropological way'.4 Travelling to distant places, away from her own homeland, the artist appears as an intrepid explorer seeking out the mystical and unknown. This can be problematic in itself since the traveller may not have been invited and the power structure at play may be unequal.5 However, most anthropologists photograph people rather than places in an effort to understand other cultures and customs. This is not what Claudia Terstappen does. Her work is about language and what escapes from it. It is as if she uses Wittgenstein as a kind of philosophical diving board to jump into the unknown. Where the philosopher remains conceited in his logic, the artist rummages around in the unconscious and the cultural imaginary trying to find out what motivates people towards ritual and mysticism.
It is a dangerous investigation in many respects, both physically and ideologically, but it manifests in striking visual imagery. Some of the images are literally slices of everyday life, such as Rituals (Japan 2004), which shows a ceiling lined with metal buckets each individually identified. These are used by worshippers who are visiting their family graves near the Yashaku Shrine. A small wooden box, filled with sand, accompanies the buckets, and is used to hold the incense that will be burnt as a sacred offering. In another image, the viewer is allowed a glimpse of the ornate and decorative chapels of Cruz del Romero, which celebrates an annual festival in the south of Spain. In Otagi nenbutsu-ji Temple (Japan, 2004), one thousand, two hundred carved figures of Rakan are seen stacked closely together on a hillside as a celebration of the disciples of Shaka, the founder of Buddhism. The heads, covered in moss, appear to be growing from the ground, as if they have been there for centuries, but in fact they have been carved by people from various parts of the country, from 1981 to 1991, and they have become increasingly modern over time with some (out of frame) sporting mobile phones and Sony walkmans.
These images bring spiritual rituals into the zone of ordinary life, whereas some of the landscapes preserve an aura which is difficult to explain in words. Here, ordinary language and logical thinking cannot help us much. Following Wittgenstein, we might say that these are things that can only be shown. They are outside the logics of language as we know it. However, the meaning still relies on the viewer's interpretation. For some people, the black and white series that includes the pictures from Iceland (2001) and the Sacred land of the Navaho Indian series (USA, 1990) will be admired for its formal qualities, and the masters of the landscape tradition, such as Ansel Adams, will be invoked by critics. However, for other people, these landscapes will have a different resonance and they may well be perceived as having a kind of spiritual aura. People may simply see this aura as the wonder of nature or, like the Romantics, they may see the spiritual in the landscape.
The big project for Claudia Terstappen is to understand how desire, belief and cultural memory are entwined. She encounters this research through photographs which have a mysterious ontology that has been written about by many writers and practitioners.6 The virtual image that appears in the analogue process has seduced scholars and artists alike. The nineteenth-century practice of spirit photography, which promised to present pictures of the recently departed, is just one material manifestation of a cultural fascination with the medium as both a realist and a performative tool. Terstappen is well aware of the mystical and magical qualities of analogue processes and has studied ghosts, poltergeists and corn circles depicted in photographic imagery. However, like many people, she is ambivalent about these images. What is revealing about them is not whether they are real but why some people believe that they are. Hovering slightly below the surface of such photographs is a sincerity that is seduced by the unknown but not convinced by it.

For the first time since she became a duchess, Meghan cut a stylish figure in a Givenchy pantsuit, which featured fitted black pants paired with a matching blazer and a white shirt.
To meet with President Michael Higgins the next day, the Duchess sported a fitted Roland Mouret sheath dress with a ruffle embellishment on the skirt and the bateau neckline she appears to favor.
For fashion enthusiasts, Meghan Markle has mostly been a treat to watch.
Britain's Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex meeting members of the public at Trinity college, on the second day of their visit to Dublin, Ireland, Wednesday, July 11, 2018.
Melania's dress also bore a similarity to the belted Givenchy number Meghan wore in June. "She [Meghan] wanted children for a long time". Meghan paired the look with Paul Andrew heels in black suede, diamond earrings from Birks, and a sleek, center-parted bun.
"I'm so in a zone in terms of just wanting to keep playing", she said. They really do deserve to do that.
The Duchess of Sussex and Duchess of Cambridge are rumoured to get along well, but their Wimbledon visit will be their fist solo outing together without their husbands.
It could be that Markle has chose to relinquish that perk, having long favoured a more natural makeup look, even before she met Harry.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle pose in Aras an Uachtarain in Ireland.
"That's a good thing because I put so much pressure on myself when I was trying to get to 18 (to tie the hauls of Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova), then the rest, it was so much".
When the couple first arrived at the site, hecklers from across the Liffey began shouting IRA-slogans to them as the pair discussed the memorial with the artist.
But Mr Gillespie said afterwards he did not notice anyone shouting as they were immersed in conversation with the royals.
The Duchess of Sussex is now in the middle of her first-ever diplomatic trip to Ireland with husband, Prince Harry, where it has been revealed she has been doing her makeup entirely herself.
At one point Harry joked about his poor IT skills, saying he had lacklustre Excel abilities.
He reported between $60,000 to $200,000 in debt among three credit cards and a loan in 2006, the same year he was confirmed to the U.S.


A man was yesterday jailed for life for murdering his 78-year-old father by strangling him.
John Sharp, 48, from Greenock, throttled his frail father, who walked with a zimmer, so violently that he shattered a bone in his neck and his Adam's apple.
The brutal attack was sparked by Sharp confronting him about why he dangled him out a window when he was 15-months-old.
It took place at John Sharp senior's home in Ann Street, Greenock, on 9 January. Judge Lady Stacey jailed Sharp for life with a minimum period of 15 years behind bars.
The judge agreed with defence QC Ian Duguid that the situation "is a tragedy for the whole family".
In evidence Sharp claimed that he acted in self defence and told the jury that his father punched him on the face as he went to leave and then punched him a further three times in the ribcage.
He alleged that he hit his dad in retaliation after becoming angry and then pushed him, causing him to fall into a coffee table.
The accused said he went over and tried to pick up his father, but he was a dead weight.
He added: "I went round his neck with my arm and pulled him up." Sharp claimed the injuries to his father's neck were caused when he lifted him in the choke hold.
Sharp told the jury at the High Court in Glasgow that he had his father rowed as they sat having a cup of tea.
But the jury convicted him of murdering his father. Police raced to Mr Sharp senior's home in Ann Street, Greenock, after a neighbour dialled 999 after hearing raised voices and a thud. When they arrived Sharp had to be arrested after brandishing a knife. Mr Sharp senior was found lying dead in the living room in front of the couch. A table was overturned and two legs had been broken off a coffee table. His broken dentures were lying nearby. The cause of death was compression of the neck and ischemic heart disease.


95% of decisions are considered preconscious. In fact, the majority of decisions we, as humans, make are automatic or based on "gut feel", rather than conscious decision making.
The human brain, shaped by thousands of years of evolution, is highly influential on our online decision making. So marketers must look for opportunities to make the conversion process as intuitive, consistent and automatic as possible.
Taking the evolutionary approach, here are five strategies for increasing conversions in a social world, from Tim Ash.
For behavior to occur, three things have to be present at the same time: motivation, ability and trigger. If a consumer has the motivation and ability to share, but no trigger, they will not convert. In an online experience, the key is to put triggers in front of motivated people.
So what are triggers for social conversion?
Triggers make social microconversions automatic or "preconscious". And microconversions will lead the consumer down the path to the sale.
Over half of the human brain is dedicated to processioning visual content. Human faces are especially salient when it comes to emotional resonance and processing visual content.
Think about how that impacts our experience on a website. What is going to be more powerful to the consumer?
3 paragraphs of text on the screen? Or an actual human telling us to take action?
As consumers, we experience video content on a website as a realistic human experience. Even if we may find it annoying unprompted, our brains still process this content more quickly and emotionally than text on the page and make us more likely to convert on the page.
Humans are innately social and therefore highly influenced by those within our "tribe".
This means that we are more likely to take an action on a page if we know that someone from our tribe already took that action. To businesses this may translate to integration with Facebook, so consumers can see which of their friends like or have purchased a certain product.
The demonstration of social proof may seem like a small thing, but testing can demonstrate this type of integration is highly influential on conversion rates.
Measure everything. The more sophisticated metrics may very likely deliver a different story and have the potential to better measure the impact of social on business value.
There is so much clutter in today's market place. So how does your business cut through the clutter to compel the consumer to stop filtering your messages and start paying attention?
Of course – you should be creating some awesome content. Content that is interesting and accessible, so that it makes it past our preconscious brain and into conscious consideration.
In addition to that – businesses should not be afraid to recycle content. One piece of content, like a webinar, is an opportunity to create 10 additional content pieces: webinar, video, SlideShare, blog posts, transcripts, eBooks, social sharing, etc.
The proliferation of this content gives your business that many more opportunities to get past the consumer filter and truly connect with them.
Social media has clearly impacted the strategies of conversion in the online world. Despite the new media, as marketers, we should still be thinking about the aspects of human behavior which have impacted humans for thousands of years.
Rather than fighting against human nature, use what you know to your advantage. For conversions this means, always thinking in terms of what make the action easiest, most compelling and most intuitive.
Has your conversion strategy changed in a social world?

Kaley Cuoco couldn't even handle meeting Jennifer Aniston: 'It was like the skies opened up'
Alex Ungerman
May 11th 2016 2:10PM
Meeting your heroes can be overwhelming, even if you're Kaley Cuoco.
The Big Bang Theory star opened up on Tuesday's Late Night With Seth Meyers about meeting Jennifer Aniston in January at NBC's 'All-Star Tribute to James Burrows' event, and from the sound of things, it was a pretty transformative moment.
"She turns around and she literally goes like this: 'Kaley!'" she told Meyers. "It was like the skies opened up, and she smelled like a garden. It was everything I dreamed it would be."

And this isn't just a fond memory! Kaley Instagrammed the experience of the Big Bang and Friends casts coming together at the time, writing, "Ummmm NIGHT MADE. Can't breathe #friends meets #bbt @bigbangtheory_cbs I died and went to heaven."
The only thing that could have made the night better is if all the Friends had been able to attend the event. Matthew Perry was absent, which his rep told ET was due to a scheduling conflict.

Figure from a paper I wrote in chemistry graduate school. Today, after a year in seminary I wrote out a very brief statement of purpose in the form of a letter to the Simple Way in Philadelphia. I wonder, what Christian ministries exist for teaching science and math to underprivileged youth?
I am a Princeton Seminary student who is interested in learning more about intentional Christian communities. My original profession is in the field of chemistry. I obtained a Ph.D. in chemistry from UC Berkeley where I worked in a field known as structural biology. In this area, scientists study the shapes of biological molecules. It was here that I became amazed by the beauty of the natural world and grew to adopt a religious awe of the natural order. I left the field of chemistry to obtain a deeper understanding of the Christian faith in an academic setting by attending seminary. I am interested in striving to implement simple living as an avenue to provide affordable science education to youth who might not have the opportunity to obtain such knowledge. It is my long term goal to participate in educational ministries to reach such youth. Unfortunately, at the moment, I am lacking knowledge in how to begin this path. I have some experience with intentional Christian communities having volunteered some at the Open Door Community in Atlanta, Georgia. I seek your help in knowing more about the ministries of the Simple Way to learn about modern monastic practices. If possible, I would be happy to speak to anyone at the Simple Way. I am willing to travel down from Princeton to Philadelphia to visit the ministry. I am grateful for any help that you can provide.

Selection of the optimal solvent system for extraction of the phenolics from Eucalyptus globules leaves and Calendula officinalis flowers, determination of the reducing potential and identification of the phenolics in these extracts was performed. The highest content of phenolics was obtained for methanol: water extracts from both sources. All of the Eucalyptus leaf extracts had higher reducing potential than those from the Calendula flowers. Solid-phase purification of the crude extracts removed 57% to 78% of the compounds in the crude extracts. The reducing potential of the purified extracts varied from 0.17 to 2.92 mg caffeic acid/g dry weight. The extracts from Eucalyptus leaves and Calendula flowers both contained chlorogenic acid, rutin and quercetin 3-glucuronide. Ellagic acid derivatives were identified only in the leaves of Eucalyptus, while beside caffeic acid and salicylic acid, quercetin 3-glucuronide, and pinobanksin 3-acetate was found in the Calendula flower extract for the first time.


You're getting married and you want the world, or at least your closest friends and family, to know what's in your heart. Choosing ceremony readings that represent the beauty and love of your relationship is a wonderful, and relatively easy way to share these feelings and personalize your ceremony. Your readings should be beautiful, moving and interesting to your guests, reflect the words and feelings in your heart, yet still adhere to the formality and "feel" that you want for your ceremony.
There are so many wonderful sources to find suitable readings. You can find them in scripture; (I Corinthians 13:4-8 - "Love is patient. Love is kind . . . ," Ephesians 5:21-32 - "Honor Christ by submitting to each other. . . . And the two shall become one.", Song of Solomon 6:3 - "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine . . . "; from selections of poetry (Alfred, Lord Tennyson - "In true marriage lies, Nor equal, or unequal," anonymous Chinese poet, Han Dynasty - "O, celestial beings, Let our feelings for each other, continue without diminishing," ); or excerpts from literature, William Shakespeare from As You Like It - " . . . no sooner met but they looked, no sooner looked but they loved, no sooner loved but they sighed, no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason, no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy . . . "). However, since there are so many, it can get so overwhelming. Don't let this send you down the simple route of merely looking at a list of possible selections (usually provided by your officiant or person who is helping with the ceremony), and picking a couple readings only because they're on his/her list and therefore must be the appropriate choices. Visit your local library and look under topics such as poetry, literature, wedding readings. Check your (and your fiancé's) bookshelves, and music collection. Some of the most beautiful words of love are song lyrics.
Don't be too quick to dismiss readings that have "been done." If you find yourself hesitating over a particular selection because you're afraid that your guests will groan, "Oh, no! Not this one again," stop a moment and give it a thorough once over. Read the selection out loud, or have someone read it to you. The spoken word has a much greater impact than just seeing them on a piece of paper. You may need to back up a bit to include a preceding verse or sentence or two, or if you have someone who is creative with words, can write a suitable introduction. Including this intro can help make the "same old" come alive, becoming something that is new and fresh. In a beautiful introduction to Corinthians 13:4-8, an aunt of the bride described the differences between love and infatuation. An excerpt follows. "Infatuation is fleeting desire. True love is a friendship that has caught fire. Infatuation says we must get married right away, I can't risk losing you. Love says be patient, don't panic, plan your future with confidence. Infatuation might lead you to do things you will regret. Love never steers you in the wrong direction. God, in His amazing, infinite wisdom, said it perfectly in Corinthians."
Of course, you'll want to take special care in choosing the person(s) who will be your readers. Look for someone who is comfortable in front of a crowd, and can read in a good speaking voice. Even the most beautiful, emotion evoking words will lose their meaning if read in a droning, monotone voice.
Finally, to avoid any unpleasant surprises on your wedding day, make sure to obtain a list of rules and regulations from your ceremony site regarding what they do and do not permit for a wedding ceremony, and get your officiant's okay before finalizing any choices. And remember, if worse comes to worse, and you aren't allowed to use a reading that you just cannot imagine doing without - have someone read it at the reception. Words of Love aren't just for the ceremony.

Tory Lanez Drops New Song ''87 Stingray'
Ahead of his '80s album Alone at Prom, Tory Lanez keeps the vintage vibes coming with his latest single "'87 Stingray."
Over the synth-pop instrumental, Tory takes it back as he soundtracks a late-night drive to his girl. "Baby, you know, I'm on my way," he sings.
"'87 Stingray" follows "Lady of Namek" and is the second release from Alone at Prom, which arrives Dec. 10.
Alone at Prom marks Tory's second project this year following his R&B capsule collection Playboy in March.
The One Umbrella boss will head to the U.K. for a series of shows on Dec. 6, 7, and 8 where he plans to perform "all the classics." On Dec. 14, he will return to the U.S. for a preliminary hearing in his felony assault case involving Megan Thee Stallion.
