As an acknowleged SME space system provider, SpaceTech sees itself well positioned to handle the challenges of the future, also associated with new developments such as "New Space" or "Space 4.0". To continue the success story of german space industry, also relying on a strong SME community, one important cornerstone is the reliable funding of technology developments in national and european programs, such as GSTP and Artes. These programs provide a huge leverage if supported reliably and are particularly effective and essential for SMEs.
While the big programs, such as ISS and Ariane 6 are of course very important, it is the earlier technology development which brings german space SME in the position to maintain and extend their international competitiveness in the future.
SpaceTech would like to express its thanks to Lothar Riebsamen for the visit and his will to support the SME request, for a strong and reliable technology funding in the space sector. In the frame of this meeting, certain next steps have been agreed on.

Kashmiri Pandits feeling more secure of late, many have returned to valley: Govt
by Adnan Shafi
in News Shots
New Delhi: Kashmiri Pandits have been feeling "more secure" and over 3,800 youngsters from the community have moved back to Kashmir recently to take up jobs provided as part of the prime minister's rehabilitation package, the government informed Parliament on Wednesday.
Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai said this in a written reply to a question put to his ministry in the Rajya Sabha.
He was asked a clutch of questions on Kashmiri Pandits such as whether the government is aware that many of them have become "insecure" in the last few years, the number of Kashmiri Pandit and Dogra Hindu families currently staying in the Kashmir valley and their demands from the government.
"As per the report of the Relief Office set up in 1990 by the government of Jammu and Kashmir, 44,167 Kashmiri migrant families are registered, who had to move from the valley since 1990 due to security concerns.
"Out of these, the count of registered Hindu migrant families is 39,782," the minister stated.
"Kashmiri Pandits have felt more secure in the recent past, as evident from the fact that 3,841 Kashmiri migrants youth have moved back to Kashmir and have taken up jobs in various districts of Kashmir under the Prime Minister's rehabilitation package," he said.
Rai added that another 1,997 candidates were selected for jobs under the same package in April and they will be moving to Kashmir soon.
"It is also pertinent to mention that as many as 26,684 Kashmiri migrant youth showed interest in going back to the valley by applying for the above referred 1,997 posts, which were advertised by the Jammu and Kashmir's recruitment board in December, 2020.
"The government has also prepared a comprehensive policy to provide residential accommodation to these Kashmiri migrants who have moved back to Kashmir," Rai said.
He said 6,000 residential units are being constructed for them at an "accelerated pace" and 1,000 residential units are already being used by these employees.
The minister also gave the number of these families based in the valley.
"Approximately 900 such families, including Kashmiri Pandit and Dogra Hindu families, are residing in Kashmir.
"As regards those who never migrated from Kashmir, the government allowed their inclusion in the jobs package for Kashmiri migrants," he said.
Besides, they are getting all the benefits of government schemes along with others in Kashmir, Rai added.
The government has taken "necessary steps" to protect the life and property of people and these include proactive operations against militants, identification and arrest of overground workers or supporters of militancy, action against members of banned organisations, intensified night patrolling checking at nakas, security arrangements through appropriate deployment, coordination meetings amongst intelligence agencies and maintaining a high level of alertness, he stated.

Since 2003, the Church has provided orders for the thanksgiving for, and blessing of, a child. The blessing ceremony takes place at morning worship following the same pattern as that for Baptism, except the wording and promises are different, and no water is used. Nothing is required of the parents in either commitment or belief. Our guide on the blessing of a child includes more information and a suggested order of service for the thanksgiving and blessing of a child.

Ministers of the Church of Scotland are authorised to perform marriages. The Church does not regard marriage as a sacrament and ministers are free to marry people who are not members of the Church of Scotland. However, if neither the bride nor groom is a member of the Church, the first approach should be to minister of the parish in which one or other of them resides. In places where parish boundaries are not obvious, the local presbytery clerk should be able to advise.
In certain circumstances the Church of Scotland permits the re-marriage of divorced people in church. Our guide to marriage includes some frequently asked questions about getting married in the Church of Scotland.
Ministers of the Church of Scotland can also conduct blessing ceremonies for civil marriages (those which were legally conducted by a registrar and not in a church). The couple seeking a blessing on their marriage stand together at the front of the church, and may be attended by friends. Our guide on blessing of a civil marriage includes a suggested sermon and procedure.
There are no fixed charges for these services, but you may be asked to contribute towards things like heating and lighting and the organist's fee. There may also be copyright costs involved if you want to video record the ceremony.

The greater natural and organic your engagement the much less your digital advertising and marketing commit wants are. Should you never have considerably natural engagement you then will wish to improve your spending budget for paid out advertising and marketing and skim on.
I'm not a huge fan of Facebook for Fb internet pages, but I do believe their electronic promoting is actually sensible. Leverage hypertargeting ad placements to get unique with who ends up observing your advert. Keep in mind: It is not concerning the number of people that come towards your site, however the range of people that transform (a.k.a. buy items). Since you may not have got a good deal of your time to check promotion to hone in on your Facebook concentrate on market, choose an informed guess.
While you keep track of and pivot your strategies you could have the ability to make some tweaks based upon anything you locate. For these advertisements you may be building graphic assets to support it. If you need to hire an individual fast to do it I suggest Upwork, TaskRabbit and 99designs.

Twitter has updated their promotion system to allow for more dynamic item advertising. If you have an active Twitter account then this is a good selection for you. In case you don't then I wouldn't counsel hopping on Twitter appropriate absent simply to do these adverts. The awesome thing about Twitter advertisements is usually that they permit you to definitely focus on your competitor's handles specifically. This may allow you to marketplace towards your competitor's audience. If this can be a fantastic in good shape to suit your needs, you'll need to reformat and alter your ad specs to accommodate this system.
This is often a fantastic system to work with for selling. When you have been on this platform to get a though I do counsel profiting from dynamic pins. At this minute Pinterest is preparing to open up promoted pins, this means you could have to hitch the waitlist to be notified when it opens up. Once you do interact with dynamic pins and alter pricing on the merchandise it will eventually bubble towards the leading with the feed to your followers.
Idea: Do cost alterations only for the weekend only to have the visibility.
Until they open up their platform to permit more compact manufacturers to interact in marketing this will stay an organic and natural channel for our uses. The ultimate way to leverage your organic and natural viewers will likely be by means of giveaways that create likes, reposts and tagging.

Its as well very easy to invest in followers in recent times, therefore if you get awed by an influencers 45k followers see if they've got a 5% conversion level (2,250 likes). To track your product sales generated by Instagram use Google small inbound links and alternate the items promoted with your channels by day.
Does your brand name have got a YouTube channel? Have you thought about partnering that has a V-logger (video clip blogger)? If you have a YouTube channel, you may want to make a short promo online video concerning the vacation season. Probably it is a sneak peak in to the place of work and talks regarding your finest selling holiday getaway solutions. Perhaps you will be providing suggestions on what to offer for the holiday break. These is often no cost to produce and become edited pretty rapidly.

Making a banner ad in your web page is a fantastic way to harness your very own traffic to change. Retain your messaging constant, primarily for those who have distinct advertisement promos running. Acquiring banner advertising and marketing on market market internet sites is likewise a fantastic possibility. Smaller sized, extra focused publications can even be speaking directly to your customer and they won't be targeted by greater brands- so carry out some digging you may perhaps find some jewels.
Similar to the Banner Advertisements, in case you are on the lookout for placement on yet another events channel it takes somewhat time. Carry out some study into market marketplaces and obtain prospective associates that the item will make an excellent healthy for. It ought to be a natural match, as if their audiences were to state "but naturally this product/brand would go in my closet/shelf". When you do look for a terrific option make sure that you discover out the quantity of people today your placement will get to, and what comparable ads have converted.
Acquiring before your purchaser needs to tackle a 360o method. It is not adequate to trust in electronic for getting the word out. It does consider time and energy to produce direct marketing property, find the appropriate retailers, negotiate pricing and have placed. Long-lead publications consider three months and lesser ones get about one month. Consider that the vacation period is the biggest time for advertisement investing, up coming into the Super Bowl. The sooner you intend this- the greater. Whilst your timing and finances might be constrained you can find some things you may do to crank out gross sales.
Placing jointly a multi-brand pop up shop can transpire incredibly immediately in the event you by now know whom you should do the job with. Take into consideration the models that presently focus on your very same demographic but are advertising various styles of solutions. Be sure your pricing is aligned, does not make sense to get a luxurious brand making an attempt to offer to an entry-level price model. Check out out methods like thestorefront.com to get a read more what areas can be found in your focus on location. You'll need to make guaranteed you might have stock to sell and to help it become a cohesive campaign will want to have postcards, stickers for shopping luggage and back everything up with some placement on your own electronic channels.
Obtaining postcards useful are fantastic for passing out at events, leaving them at regional coffee retailers, mailing out to the current purchaser base and to your trusty record of bloggers and editors. Utilize a stunning impression of the product and incorporate your entire pertinent get hold of specifics in addition a handful of vital phrases or sentences about your model. To have extra oomph away from it have compact stickers printed up which has a handful of focused coupon codes. You could adhere them on in advance of an occasion or promoting chance to trace success of get better on your internet site.
For a last second technique this type of outlet is usually the hardest to target. I only counsel using these channels being a supporting marketing campaign in your digital or live events. It's difficult to track the conversions on these adverts, and in many cases with get better codes the conversions may be quite lower. Heads up: most print marketing will likely have for a longer period guide periods for deadlines. If you're working away from time but choose to incorporate this kind of channel then glance to weekly publications given that they could however have some openings.
Because you are over a quick timeline you will need to see rapidly which paid out and unpaid channels you will go forward with. Start off by reaching out to the paid out channels initial for getting an strategy of deadlines and price. You should definitely get all applicable information around the focus on current market, attain numbers, and what belongings you will want to develop the most effective marketing campaign at any time.
I hope that you are terrific. I'd wish to chat along with you about November/December advertisement placement on Man Repeller. Could you permit me understand what your deadlines are for submission and also your ad rates? Proper now I am searching into <insert type of ads >.
Now even though we might love to do all the things on our checklist of opportunity outreach, we want to improve for spending plan and timing. Generally I'd recommend we build the spending plan depending on your overall advertising budget for your yr, but if this is often last second in this article is what I advise. Set aside at least $50 per day on your own electronic advertising and marketing strategies right up until you get some stable details on what's operating. This could be obvious immediately after 7 days of advertising and marketing. As soon as you have a perception of one's responsive goal current market then up your funds and continue to keep trekking.
Building graphic property, whilst echoed through this manual, is frequently ignored. This factor will take time and you also intend to make guaranteed you might have the appropriate dimensions and call-to-actions in position. If you are not creating these on your own then look to some outdoors assistance. A copywriter may additionally be as part of your price range for those who are not the strongest author. A normal rule of thumb your annual marketing spending budget must be about 15% of one's annually gross sales. This pretty a great deal applies to firms that have analyzed and obtained focus on perception.
It doesn't matter how much (or how small) time you have a timeline is important. Develop an excel spreadsheet along with the platforms each paid out and unpaid and keep track of it out by week. What channels launch when and what belongings need to be finalized by when. Also monitor your plans and expectations. Have you been concentrating on a niche marketplace? You may have a small outreach but a higher expectation on simply click throughs and conversions.
Idea on conversion: be sure to possess a publication pop up ready on your own web page to seize every one of these new potential customers!
Get resourceful! For those who do not have Photoshop then I recommend applying very simple graphic design and style courses like Canva and PicMonkey. Ensure that your graphic assets are cohesive, while using the identical branded fonts and style and design path. Due to this it is best to possibly have got a model guidebook for consistency applications or to obtain the exact same designer build all your property after which create the fashion guideline afterwards. Be distinct around the proportions you need and what material may be put on the graphics, or on the text portion of one's write-up. Many advertisements assist you to generate a number of versions to check your image and text, so be certain to take advantage of this.
Whoohoo! You created it. The function is almost in excess of. Bear in mind to get patient also to remember that marketing and advertising is a long tail sport. The initial time the thing is an ad will you buy it appropriate it absent? You may invest in it, however , you also won't. In many conditions it will require as many as 3 unique social proofs prior to a possible client converts, therefore why I thrust the multi pronged tactic.
Even if your marketing campaign is only 7 days prolonged it's essential to trace info on performance. Use your timeline and goal sheet and add your results appropriate subsequent to it. If your marketing campaign is for a longer time, then keep an eye on which ads are performing most effective and redirect your ad dollars to those advertisements. Obtaining a number of styles of adverts will enable you to compare additional effectively. Perhaps it's the impression with the model that's finding the most visitors, possibly it is the apparent product or service shot. Making the tests to receive the answers you need.
A post-mortem allows you to definitely recap what worked and didn't get the job done during your marketing campaign. Try to remember the whole point of doing all of the is to make profits! About time you'll acquire the channels that do the job to your manufacturer however, you ought to maintain records so that next 12 months when you start out to plan for Holiday again you are able to improve your odds of conversions.
Suggestion: Add a reminder on the calendar for February in the following year to review your recap and start to give thought to vacation again.

The Neighborhood Church officially began in November 2016 after re-locating and re-planting in Garland. Our mission is to follow Jesus together for God's kingdom in our neighborhood. Our hope is that we continue to become a church in the neighborhood and for the neighborhood that reflects the neighborhood in all its diversity.
We serve alongside several local and global partners to bless our neighbors both here in town and around the world.
We have all sorts of people in our community — people that have come from a variety of religious and cultural backgrounds and people who have only recently been introduced to Jesus and his way. What binds us all together is a love for Jesus and others.
Meet our pastors here or scroll down to find out more about our core practices and core convictions.
The Christian life is meant to be lived, not just believed.
We commit to be with Jesus to learn from Jesus how to live like Jesus in our everyday life.
We commit to love others as ourselves regardless of race, background, ethnicity, orientation, or status.
We commit to invite people into a relationship with Jesus by baptizing, teaching, and sending them on mission.
We commit to make time for God and others for transformational relationships to grow.
We commit to partner with God in his mission to bring his Shalom (holistic peace and well-being) to our neighborhood and world.
When we discovered the convictions outlined by the Anabaptist Network in the UK, we felt as though we were looking into a mirror. We are a non-denominational church, governed by our own leadership and do not formally belong to any Christian denomination or organization — the Anabaptist Network included. However, these convictions articulate the kind of theological distinctions that have grown from our life of following Jesus together for his kingdom in our neighborhood, and have helped form a framework for the kind of thinking, teaching, and practice you'll find at The Neighborhood Church.
Jesus is our example, teacher, friend, redeemer, and Lord. He is the source of our life, the central reference point for our faith and lifestyle, our understanding of church, and our engagement with society. We are committed to follow Jesus and worshiping him.
Western culture is slowly emerging from the Christendom era, when church and state jointly presided over a society in which almost all were assumed to be Christian. Whatever its positive contributions on values and institutions, Christendom seriously distorted the gospel, marginalized Jesus, and has left churches ill-equipped for mission in a post-Christendom culture. As we reflect on this, we are committed to learning from the experience and perspectives of movements such as Anabaptism that rejected standard Christendom assumptions and pursued alternative ways of thinking and behaving.
Churches are called to be committed communities of discipleship and mission, places of friendship, mutual accountability, and multi-voiced worship. As we eat together, sharing bread and wine, we sustain hope as we seek God's kingdom together. We are committed to nurturing and developing such churches, in which young and old are valued, leadership is consultative, roles are related to gifts rather than gender and baptism is for believers.
For more information about these convictions, see the Anabaptist Network or listen to our sermon series that explores each conviction with regard to Anabaptist history, our theology and practice. For a great introduction into these convictions and Anabaptism, we recommend The Naked Anabaptist by Stuart Murray.


"For those of you that are interested in the Chinese HF Transceiver that waslisted as selling for $400.00, here is the correct price on the radio. 6,000 RMB Chinese money =(USD $975.60) They said they never put $400 on there but we all can see that price on their reps ad. I am in China now on a buying trip and I had my Chinese assistant get this information for us. Anyone that wants to buy one, I will be happy to give you the direct contact number so you can order direct from the mfg. Its normal for the Chinese to put a lower price on their ads just like they advertise the Wouxun 1P as a HF SSB Transceiver in some listings."
It is nice to have boots on the ground to get this information.
Knowing Chinese 6,000 RMB might also be a lie to fleece someone already there with money in his hand.
I ordered from this company 3 weeks ago and it was shipped to me in Georgia by FedEx it took them 4 days to deliver it to me i was quoted $400.00 including shipping.
How does it work. Problems with it not having vfo. Computer programmable?
there does not appear to any way of buying Items they advertise. There is no shopping cart or buy now button or any thing else like you would have on a web site that sells Items.
I have tried to contact them but no response. If any one reading this does know, please tell me.
If you send them an email (address on website) they will respond. Payment is by Western Union or Bank Transfer. Am I crazy enough to send money this way - NOPE!! Perfect way for scammer/thief to get your money. Too bad.

Q: Python timer not displaying text as expected i decided to build from a timer a found on this website, and before I did anything to it to make sure it looked ok, I decided to test it however the label that I have set to display is not working. Please be aware some thing may seem illogical, however I was just trying various things to try and get it to work
Code:
import Tkinter

class Timer(Tkinter.Tk):

    def __init__(self):

        Tkinter.Tk.__init__(self)

        '''Variable Setup'''
        self.hour = Tkinter.StringVar()
        self.minutes = Tkinter.StringVar()
        self.seconds = Tkinter.StringVar()

        '''Setting Up Time Inputes'''
        hourLabel = Tkinter.Label(self, text="Hours: ").pack()
        hourEntry = Tkinter.Entry(self, width=5,textvariable=self.hour).pack()

        minLabel = Tkinter.Label(self, text="Minutes: ").pack()
        minEntry = Tkinter.Entry(self, width=5,textvariable=self.minutes).pack()

        secsLabel = Tkinter.Label(self, text="Seconds: ").pack()
        secsEntry = Tkinter.Entry(self, width=5,textvariable=self.seconds).pack()

        self.timerLab = Tkinter.Label(self, text="", width=10).pack()

        startBut = Tkinter.Button(self, text="Start Timing", command=self.validation).pack()

    def validation(self):

        '''Simple Try to turn it to int value method to validate'''
        hours = self.hour.get()
        minutes = self.hour.get()
        seconds = self.seconds.get()

        try:
            hours = int(hours)
        except ValueError:
            print("Invalid Inputs")

        try:
            minutes = int(minutes)
        except ValueError:
            print("Invalid Inputs")

        try:
            seconds = int(seconds)
        except ValueError:
            print("Invalid Inputs")

        self.timer_init

    def timer_init(self):

        hours = self.hour.get()
        minutes = self.hour.get()
        seconds = self.seconds.get()

        if hours != 0:
            hoursToSeconds = int(hours)*60*60
        else:
            hoursToSeconds = 0
        if minutes != 0:
            minutesToSeconds = int(minutes)*60
        else:
            minutesToSeconds = 0

        self.totalTime = hoursToSeconds + minutesToSeconds + seconds
        self.remaining = 0
        self.countdown(10)

    def countdown(self, remaining = None):
        if remaining is not None:
            self.remaining = remaining

        if self.remaining <= 0:
            self.timerLab.configure(text="Time's Up")
        else:
            self.timerLab.configure(text="%d" % self.remaining)
            self.remaining = self.remaining - 1
            self.after(1000, self.countdown)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = Timer()
    app.mainloop()

A: You have a lot of typos

*

*minutes = self.hour.get() should be minutes = self.minutes.get()

*self.timer_init - forgotten parentheses

*self.countdown(10) - you, probably, want self.countdown(self.totalTime) or something like that

*self.totalTime = hoursToSeconds + minutesToSeconds + seconds - you should convert seconds to type int
But you also have a really mistake:
self.timerLab = Tkinter.Label(self, text="", width=10).pack()

pack() method returns None. So, you have to change it to
self.timerLab = Tkinter.Label(self, text="", width=10)
self.timerLab.pack()

I have certain tastes, certain sexual proclivities. My cock is a bit more discriminatory than most. And training a virgin takes finesse and patience - both of which I lack. Sophie Evans has been backed into a corner.
Filthy Beautiful Love
Filthy Beautiful Lies, Book 2
I never expected to watch Sophie walk away. She was mine. I would own her. She just didn't know it yet. New goal: Seal the deal and rock her world so thoroughly she would never want to leave again. Highly sexual and emotionally charged, Filthy Beautiful Love is the provocative conclusion to Filthy Beautiful Lies.
Filthy Beautiful Lust
Pace Drake loves sex. He knows where get it, what to say, what to do, and he makes no apologies for satisfying his needs. But when he meets single mom, Kylie Sloan, he's enthralled by her, and begins to question his standard operating procedure.
Filthy Beautiful Forever
Collins Drake exercises control over all facets of his life. From his business, to his relationships, to satisfying his physical needs...it all happens on his command. So when a woman shows up at his door and reminds him of a promise they made each other when they were just 10 years old, it shouldn't have the ability to rock his entire world.


Actually, in this case, never smile at an alligator. An alligator was the avatar of an admin on an internet board I frequent. She died very suddenly, most unexpectedly, several months ago, and a group of us is collaborating on a memorial banner. Some have embroidered some of her famous to us sayings. Others have done something else and I'm knitting alligators to go on the banner. This is the first, and I've emailed a picture to the co-ordinator of the project. It's about the right size I think, but I really want to shorten the legs a bit. They seem out of proportion but I followed the pattern.
Some of the last of the Bendigo Melody. A child's hat, recipient unknown at the moment. I'll put it into the charity/gift box for the moment. It will warm someone's head soon.
Speaking of warming...it's very pleasant inside and it was meant to reach only 16° today. I have a long sleeve top on, but it's not thick. I'm warm. However, I went down to check the mail just before this entry. It was chilly outside and when I opened the south facing doors to the letterboxes, I had to push the heavy door against a very strong wind. Very cold outside the block.
Finally, just because I can, a shot of the inside fire stairs near my end of the block. There are stairs each end of the block on every floor as well as the stairs which some use instead of the lift. I was experimenting with my new camera again. The colours are fairly accurate as the light bulbs are yellowy. The concrete is raw on the stairs and the tiles are a deep cream to mustard. Clicking will enlarge. I like the way the colour of the rails at the top is echoed right at the bottom of the stairs.
The stairs lead up to a roof garden as well as to outside in an emergency. I spent quite a bit of time up there last Friday when it was sunny, experimenting with aperture etc on the camera. Some worked, some didn't.
Am I allowed to agree with you about the legs?
I love the idea of the collaborative effort for the memorial banner - I'm sure "she" would ahve appreciated it.
You're blessed to be warm; it's freezing inside our house but I haven't been able to justify (to myself) turning on ducted air-con for lil ol' me when I'm sitting in one room! But, it's five o'clock now so I will turn it on just to take the chill out of the house - that takes about thirty minutes then we turn it off again! I know, perhaps I should have done it earlier!
I love the stairs photo! And the alligator is SO cute! I can't wait to see photos of the finished result once everybody has done their bit.
is there such a thing as too much sock wool?

About Derek Prince
About Derek Prince Ministries
About Resources and Events
Is Derek Prince still alive?
Derek Prince died at his home in Jerusalem on 24 September 2003 in his sleep. He was 88 years old.
Has anyone taken on Derek Prince's "mantle"?
Although this is a frequently asked question, there is no indication that this was ever the case.
Are any of Derek's children or grandchildren in full-time ministry?
Yes. As of August 1995 when Derek celebrated his 80th birthday in England, many family members were present. He stated that he had 35 grandchildren, 58 great-grandchildren and 7 great-great grandchildren. Eight grandsons were in full-time Christian ministry at the time, as were two great-grandsons. That number has probably increased since then.
Was Derek pre-, mid-, or post-Trib — and did he believe the term rapture to be correct?
Derek never took a stand regarding pre-, mid-, or post-Trib. Derek said: "If you want to know what I think about the rapture and the tribulation, I think there are a whole lot of things we don't know. I was greatly blessed by what Bryn Jones said when he was discussing the first coming of Jesus. And he pointed out three streams of prophecy. [Jesus] was to come out of Bethlehem. He was to come out of Nazareth. And He was to come out of Egypt. And he said, "How could anybody ever have got it right in advance?" And yet all three were fulfilled. And if there had been schools of prophecy in those days we would have three schools: the Nazareth school, the Bethlehem school and the Egypt school. And each one would have tried to prove the others wrong!" — quoted from 4068 "Spiritual Blindness: Cause and Cure" Read more...
What was his stand on salvation—once saved, always saved?
Derek says on salvation: "We have been looking in Hebrews 6 and we have spoken about people who have had five experiences. Every one of the experiences in some measure is supernatural. They have been supernaturally enlightened. Christ has been revealed to them, the Bible has been made a living book. They've tasted the heavenly gift which I believe is really Jesus Himself. They became partakers of... Read more..
How is DPM still able to publish new books?
In the 1980s the Lord instructed us to record Derek every time he ministered when preaching and teaching God's Word. In addition to these recordings, individuals have contacted us to let us know that they have old reel-to-reel messages of Derek when he was in their area. It is out of this vast archive of material that we continue to produce new books and other works for publication.
Since Derek Prince has passed away, are his works still covered by copyright?
Yes. Any book in print by a publishing house is bound by copyright restrictions due to contractual agreement. Written permission must be obtained from the publisher for photocopying or use in other publications (except within "Fair Use" guidelines). See the copyright page for contact information. For CD, DVD, MP3 materials or Derek's teaching letters, it has consistently been the policy of Derek Prince Ministries to allow individuals to make copies for giving away.
Can I translate Derek Prince's Bible teaching into my own language?
Contact your nearest office to find out the procedure for new translation and publishing.
What was Derek's favorite Bible translation?
By far, Derek liked to read the King James Version in his personal Bible study time (or the original Greek or Hebrew!). But, because many of the words used in the KJV had fallen out of common use, he switched to the more modern translations, so he wouldn't need to spend so much time defining words while he was preaching. The New American Standard Bible and the New International Versions came into more frequent use, but later he switched almost exclusively to the New King James when preaching. That said, he never failed to use another version (i.e., J.B. Phillips, The Living Bible or The Amplified Bible, or "the Prince version") if it better expressed the true meaning of the original Greek or Hebrew.
Where can I buy non-English books?
Derek Prince's Bible teaching is available in many languages in format. You could even use these materials for outreach in your city. Visit our webshop or contact your nearest office for details.
Did Derek observe the Jewish Sabbath or worship on Sunday?
Derek did both, in a certain sense. Because Derek lived in Jerusalem for much of his life, he enjoyed observing the Sabbath—not as a religious observance, and not because it was a Jewish tradition, but because he felt that the Lord was showing him that he could be more productive if he took twenty-four hours in a week and did no work. It was because of the Lord's leading rather than under duress or as an obligation he had to fulfill. In addition, he was an active member of an Anglican church in the Old City. When he went on mission trips, he was sent out by that church and when he... Read more...
What did Derek teach on the term Trinity?
Derek says on the term Trinity: "In Genesis 1:26, we are again confronted with the combination of singular and plural in reference to God: 'Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness." The verb said is singular in form, the pronouns Us and Our are plural. "This combination of singular and plural in reference to God recurs in other passages of Scripture. The prophet Isaiah had a vision of the Lord on His throne and then heard Him say, 'Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?' (Isaiah 6:8). The pronoun 'I' implies that one Person is speaking, but the pronoun 'Us' indicates that He is no longer speaking on behalf of more than one Person. "In the ongoing revelation of Scripture, three distinct Persons emerge, each of whom is God: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. The first of the three divine Persons referred to individually in Scripture is the Spirit: 'The Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters' (Genesis 1:2, NASB). Read more...
Do you hold conferences?
Conferences are held in some countries. Although not all offices hold conferences of their own, We do participate in those organized by the local churches and ministries.
Did Derek ever write a commentary or a translation of the Bible?
No, he did not. Occasionally in his teaching, however, Derek would half-jokingly refer to "the Prince version" of the Bible. By this he was not referring to an actual Bible that is in print. He just meant that because he knew the Greek language so well (having studied it at Eton and Cambridge since he was ten years old) and was also thoroughly trained in Hebrew (having studied at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem), that he was offering his best educated guess as to what the real meaning of a certain passage would be. (As a matter of fact, Derek was qualified to teach Greek at the university level.)
Though Derek did not write a commentary, he did teach two verse-by-verse series—one on the book of Romans called "The Roman Pilgrimage" and the other on the book of Hebrews entitled "God's Last Word."
What is your statement of faith?
Read our full statement of faith.
How do you work in other countries?
Today, Derek Prince Ministries has 13 national offices around the world from which there are over 45 outreaches working in over 100 languages. These offices and outreaches take Derek's material in all its media formats—print, audio, video and radio—and translates it into the languages in their sphere of responsibility. The major areas of outreaches are Russia and the former Soviet republics, China, Eastern Europe, Caucasus, Middle East, India, Africa and Israel. The sun never sets on the ministry of Derek Prince.
Once a book is completed, it is placed in the hands of our international offices and outreaches for translation and distribution. One new book will impact hundreds of thousands of lives.
Do you plant churches?
As a ministry, we do not establish churches or Bible schools. We are called to work with the local indigenous leadership of the Christian community and to come alongside and support them in their efforts of evangelism, discipleship and church growth. Derek was a missionary at heart. Wherever he went, it was his desire to serve the Church in that nation. That is our attitude today. Our mission statement has changed through the years, but this one remains — our goal is to reach the unreached and teach the untaught. A great majority of the material that we produce is given away to do just that.

I was quite honored to be tagged by Jackie Hames at The Spidereen Frigate for a blog chain called "The Next Big Thing," which gives readers a snapshot of your own work-in-progress.
I'll give it my best shot. Hope you enjoy!
Where Did Your Idea for the Book Come From?
I started drawing maps in 2004 of a fantasy world I wanted to create, and that eventually morphed into a couple of projects, including The Wolfglen Legacy. After watching a lot of movies like the Star Wars prequels, Lord of the Rings, and Pirates of the Caribbean, I wanted to tell a big, adventurous, save-the-world kind of story. Plus, I wanted to try giving new(ish) versions of various fantasy cliches like elves, dragons, wizards, dark lords, and see if I could set them up in a somewhat original framework.
Primarily epic fantasy, with some tones of dark fantasy, adventure fantasy, and a dash of science fiction.
If Your Book Became a Movie, Which Actors Would You Pick?
Ben Barnes (Prince Caspian) as Morent Wolfglen. He'd do a good job of looking ferocious and desperate, playing the conflicted wizard who is trying to save his family while keeping his conscience intact.
Jennifer Lawrence would be terrific to play Princess Sathra Wolfglen. She excelled as Mystique and Katniss Everdeen, and I'd like to see her play the role of a vulnerable young woman who learns how to become stronger and more in control.
Andrew Garfield really impressed me with his interpretation of Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man, so I wouldn't mind seeing him in the role of Josh Kingston, a young man from another time who is awakened from stasis into a distant future ruled by magic and wars, and is catapulted into one of the most dangerous conflicts Earth has ever faced, all while trying to learn his new surroundings and run from mistakes and tragedy in his past.
Those are the three main characters. But I did have a couple of others in mind. I tend to dream big.
Christian Bale as King Rishtal Wolfglen, brother to Morent and father to Sathra.
Rachel Weisz as Empress Kilfira Lundill, an ally of the Wolfglen family.
Sam Neill as General Streynel Halthrin, and David Tennant as Myrickin Schtahl, both of them people who have different goals than everyone thinks they do.
What is Your Book's One-Sentence Synopsis?
A young man outrunning his past, a princess trying to go on after her mother's death, and a wizard desperate to save his family all find themselves caught up in a secret war against their country, driven by an ancient supernatural enemy.
I'm definitely going to try traditional publishing first. More than that, I want to see how high I can go with this series. If Random House or Tor or HarperCollins picks it up, terrific! If not, that's perfectly okay. I still want to try it because I don't want to spend my days wondering how far up the publishing ladder it could have gone.
After writing off and on while trying to balance school and work with my writing goals, it took me about five years to finally have a complete first draft. Now that I'm graduated, though, it won't take nearly as long to write the series's next book (there will be four Wolfglen books in total).
What Other Books in Your Genre Would You Compare Your Novel To?
Hmm. Kind of stumped on this one. Maybe it would be a good fit for readers of Brandon Sanderson (Elantris, Mistborn, the latest Wheel of Time books), James Gurney (Dinotopia), Christopher Paolini (The Inheritance Cycle), George R.R. Martin (Game of Thrones), and Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game).
In December 2003, as I left the theater after watching Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, I was blown away by the story I had just witnessed. Given the staggering quality of Peter Jackson's trilogy and how it affected my emotions and imagination, I knew one thing for certain stepping out of that theater: I wanted to be a fantasy writer.
From there I pieced together bits of worldbuilding, character development, and the clockwork of a plot, and the most developed result is The Wolfglen Legacy.
What Else Might Pique a Reader's Interest in Your Book?
Possibly the ways I have revamped given fantasy cliches (elves with flintlocks instead of bows, a villain driven by his conscience instead of evil for its own sake, etc.).
Moral complexity is one of the big goals I have in mind for this series. I am striving to get a good balance between the black-and-white conflict in Harry Potter, and the frustrating ambiguity in Game of Thrones.
Dinosaurs join the book's dragons to give my world plenty of big scaly beasties. When was the last time you saw a Triceratops in a fantasy novel? Seriously, they could instantly improve a lot of books.
And I am working hard to make the story satisfying on all fronts, not only attractive for its worldbuilding or characters or descriptions.
To keep this chain going, I'd like to tag four of the coolest writers I know: Janden Daniel Hale, Rob "The Brain Hamster" Killam, Aaron Ritchey, and Courtney Schafer. All are terrific storytellers, and I recommend you check them out right away.
One of the classic but seldom mentioned quirks of human nature is that we can't read the intentions or thoughts of others, yet expect those same people to perfectly understand every nuance and twist of whatever we mean to say or do. I am probably ten times more guilty of this than you are, but it affects everyone to one degree or another. We expect to be understood, then make up our minds about someone regarding their words and deeds.
My latest example of this double standard involves another writer, who has published a series of novels. He is understandably frustrated that a number of reviewers are calling the series "Christian fiction," even though he wanted it to be accessible to non-religious people. Given how it's normally just Christians who read books with that label, this would be a legitimate gripe…if he hadn't let it get published under the "Christian" section of a large publishing house. In his dissertation-length explanation to someone else who pointed out the reason why his books are being called religious, his best excuse is that he and the publisher intended to give readers a book that all people, Christian and otherwise, could appreciate. But we all know what the road to Hell is paved with.
Obviously there is that whole "splinter in your neighbor's eye, a plank in your own" situation to look out for. I fell into the same trap when I developed a harsh and glowering attitude toward him, thinking Well, maybe he should realize that others won't care about his intentions if the label turns them away from his books! What an idiot. Why didn't he just go with another publisher? Of course, this isn't a very charitable thought to have about another human being. And I should realize more often that I can't read minds, and I never know the whole situation. Maybe something else happened that I didn't know of — his agent zealously recommending he go with that publisher, a close friend he had in the publishing house wanting to print his work, or an affection he might have had toward the company. Since I don't know, I should shut up and give this writer the benefit of the doubt.
There isn't much advice or wisdom I can offer to you here. I still have to learn to (1 not read too much into someone else's situation, and (2 not get too frustrated when someone misinterprets something I did or said. If they misunderstood me, I can answer them graciously and humbly, or I can shrug it off entirely and keep going. A harsh/lengthy/scathing response is unwarranted, in any case. The best I can do on my side of the fence is try to say and do exactly what I intend the first time, and hope that not too many people will draw the wrong conclusion. And if they do, it's not the end of the world. Normally you'll have an easier time becoming a millionaire than you will convincingly explaining "what you really intended" after-the-fact.
Writer's Workshops: To Critique or Not Critique?
Written text with red ink. It is to some writers what crucifixes are to vampires.
Picture, if you will, two writing workshops. One of them coalesces each Thursday at the local Barnes and Noble, and often draws aspiring writers who need some encouragement to continue in the craft. Many of these less-experienced storytellers have not yet developed a thick skin for unflinching critique, or for rejection letters. As a rule, the workshop outlaws critique of someone's writing during the time they read it to the group. Some members are more than happy to critique if it's requested, but you can only give and receive positive comments during the workshop.
The other group is led twice a month at a nearby library, mostly drawing middle schoolers and high schoolers. After a few years of fun, open minded, just-get-it-on-the-page writing exercises, the longstanding group decides to go ahead with allowing critiques of each other's work (written outside of the workshops, and brought to the group for the express purpose of putting its feet to the fire). The fun, raw creativity of writing exercises still goes on, but now critique sessions will be part of the experience.
I attend both of these workshops, and have led the latter for five years. Both have blessed my life with writer colleagues, and with resources for growing as a storyteller. I plan to keep going to both for as long as possible. The first one may not get many opportunities for its members to be direct with the weaknesses in someone's writing, but I appreciate its attempts to accommodate new writers who are still shy and may simply need encouragement and a positive environment. The latter will help its attendees, I'm sure, with constructive criticism and iron sharpening iron, and I'm excited that the group is moving in a new direction. Still, the presence of criticism might, just possibly, turn off newcomers who are not yet ready to hear negative things about their writing, no matter how well-intentioned.
Which writer's workshop would you rather attend, if you could only pick one?
What do you want from a workshop? What do you need? They're not necessarily the same thing.
Do you prefer writer's workshops that have no critiquing, or ones that make time for both critiques and fun exercises? Or do you want a solid critiquing session, where each member runs a gauntlet of highlighted typos, suggestions, and potentially devastating criticism of their words?
When it comes to workshops, how do you think new writers should enter the fray? What kind of group do you think stands to benefit them the most?
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, and get a discussion going. Thanks for your time, everyone! Catch you on Thursday.
Just about everyone loves a good book. Writers love them, of course, or else they wouldn't be dedicating so much time, blood, and sweat to creating them. Readers love them because of the chance to find escape, or romance, or comfort, or bravery, or beauty. Whether you love stacks of dusty tomes or the efficiency of a Kindle, royal biographies or serial mysteries, books that are like hundred meter dashes or like long winding trails through a primeval forest, books and the stories they tell are so beloved because there are so many ways they can appeal to us.
We all recognize the import of a great story, even if we can't quite understand why something so intangible could be so vital. Even if we don't read them or understand them, stories as varied as Beowulf or The Grapes of Wrath, from The War of the Worlds to Pride and Prejudice, carry something that we sense humans want to create, and need to create.
The stories that will last are labors of love, combined with excellent craft and the sharpest of wit. A storyteller raises his tale like a child, ages it like wine, and sculpts it like art. He will work at that story, his heart straining with its emotions and his mind tinkering with its components, until it becomes a living thing that will shine and sing. Stories can be cranked out quickly, their pages splattered with ideas and interesting angles, but thankfully there are still many authors who will take the time to give their work a soul.
And the strangest quality of a soul is its immortality. Orson Scott Card has said that the greatest books stand the test of time. I am quite certain that every author should strive to place such books into their readers' hands, books that will not only be enjoyed but cherished. The world still needs imagination and passion in its stories. That need has never lessened with time, even though it can be ignored or pushed to the sidelines once in a while.
To every writer and reader who reads this: I pray for the very best for you tonight. May your stories be timeless, may your minds and hearts always be ready to create, and may you never lose touch with the power of books and storytelling.


I'm excited to be taking part in 12 months of Sensory Dough this year. I followed along last year as a reader and enjoyed seeing all the different varieties. This month for January, we will be focusing on snow dough.
The boys and I made our snow dough together. We experimented with a new recipe and had fun inventing the recipe as well as playing with our finished glittery snow dough.
For this snow dough, we decided to go with a glittery look since snow is kinda magical.. glitter is kinda magical.. so we felt like that all tied in together, plus the kids love their glitter!
I wondered whether we could substitute the corn flour for baby powder since they are a similar texture, but baby powder always reminds me of snow.
Mixing together with the children gives a good chance to talk about textures and states of the materials – whether they are solid, liquid, crumbly, gooey etc.
That immediately transformed our snowy cloud dough into a soft and mouldable playdough.
The boys played with it with cookie cutters, cake cases, a few sparkly embellishments and even more glitter.
They loved cutting out shapes and then rolling them into even more glitter.
This snow dough recipe shapes and moulds well just like playdough, and holds it shape.
After playing, we placed it into a zip lock bag and kept it in the fridge, but it will last a couple of days maximum – I guess because of the mousse or foam, the texture and consistency starts to get a little weird when you go back to it and it's best played with freshly made. So don't make a huge amount at one time – just whatever your kids need for that one play session.
This looks like a lot of fun – and I like the baby powder idea. Bet it smells fab! I used to make something similar using traditional salt dough, food colouring and glitter for my kids and they loved it.
How apt what with the craze FOR Frozen.
Love this idea, my children love any kind of dough and one with glitter would be really fun. Love that you can change the texture of it using different ingredients.

Title: Nanoscale origin of the crystalline-to-amorphous phase transformation and damage tolerance of Cantor alloys at cryogenic temperatures

Abstract: Based on recent experimental studies, crystalline-to-amorphous phase transformation has been proposed as a mechanism to enhance the damage tolerance of Cantor alloys at cryogenic temperatures. In this study, we provide atomistic insights, via molecular dynamics simulations, into the origin of the solid-state amorphization ahead of a crack tip, and report the deformation mechanisms contributing to cryogenic damage-tolerance. We show that the amorphization stems from the formation of multi-dislocation junctions due to the low stacking fault energy. This leads to high lattice resistance to dislocation glide and facilitates nucleation of amorphous nuclei. The deformation mechanisms in the amorphous/crystalline dual phase regions include high-density Shockley partial dislocations and multi-dislocation junctions in the crystalline region, as well as radiation-shaped shear bands and amorphous bridges in the amorphous region, which are rarely found in conventional alloys at low temperature. The amorphous bridges lead to crack shielding. Furthermore, altering the chemical composition changes the work-of-fracture and hence the damage tolerance. The Rice-criterion ductility (ratio between surface energy and unstable stacking fault energy) is an important factor affecting the degree of amorphization, which is useful for the mechanics-based design of Cantor alloys.

Scotland's national brain injury unit opens its doors
Building and Design | Mental Health
Robert Fergusson unit among first-phase development at Royal Edinburgh Hospital
The Robert Fergusson brain injury unit
The first patients to be cared for in the purpose-built Robert Fergusson national brain injury unit transferred into their improved surroundings on the Royal Edinburgh Hospital campus earlier this month.
The unit first opened 25 years ago as a specialist clinic for the treatment of patients from across Scotland who suffer from psychiatric or behavioural problems after a head injury.
Throughout this process we have involved, listened to, and taken on board, the views of patients, staff, families and the public and we are confident that these new facilities will provide a therapeutic environment for our dedicated staff to deliver high-quality care
A quarter of a century later staff and patients have moved into their new building offering a modern healthcare environment designed to meet their needs.
The multi-disciplinary team based in the unit include: nursing staff, neuropsychiatrists, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists; art therapists, and social workers.
As no two brain injury patients are the same, the team works together to create bespoke care plans around each patient.
After working in the old unit for 16 years, Michele Yeaman, senior charge nurse at NHS Lothian, said: "It is wonderful to be in our new, fit-for-purpose unit.
"Transferring our patients and the team from the old, dated wards to their new environment has been met with excitement and apprehension.
"Staff are working together to find new ways to deliver continuous care during this period of transition.
"Our patients are already starting to settle into their new routines and space."
"The redevelopment of the Royal Edinburgh Hospital is a major commitment from NHS Lothian to improving mental health services
Professor Alex McMahon, executive director of nursing, midwifery and AHPs, added: "Throughout this process we have involved, listened to, and taken on board, the views of patients, staff, families and the public and we are confident that these new facilities will provide a therapeutic environment for our dedicated staff to deliver high-quality care.
"The redevelopment of the Royal Edinburgh Hospital is a major commitment from NHS Lothian to improving mental health services and we are looking forward to welcoming patients and staff into our adult and older people's mental health wards over the coming months."
The National Brain Injury Unit has been built as part of the £48m first phase of the Royal Edinburgh Campus redevelopment, which was handed over to NHS Lothian on time and on budget by development partner, Hub South East Scotland, and main contractor, Morrison Construction, in December.
Phase one includes new accommodation for the adult acute mental health inpatient service, older people's mental health assessment, Intensive Psychiatric Care Service (IPCU), and the new Robert Fergusson national brain injury unit.
Further redevelopment of the campus is planned to be undertaken in phased stages over the next seven years following the announcement of a £120m funding package by the Scottish Government.
Phase Two work is likely to include a new integrated rehabilitation facility, a newly-refurbished MacKinnon House, and a new facilities management centre.

Numbers Show 2020 Summer Riots Made Previously Anti Gun People 'New' Gun Owners
SOURCE: YouTube video screenshot
Unless you've been living in a cave, it's not news to you that Americans are buying firearms at a much faster rate than usual.
When I went to get my concealed carry permit in 2015, it took me 90 minutes to get it and that included the photo ID card. I had heard horror stories from others who live in different counties in my state, some taking weeks and others even longer. The sheriff's deputy told me that the 90 minutes was actually a longer wait than normal. I asked why and he said it was because that was the weekend that the Charlie Hebdo shooting happened in France where two French Muslim gunmen, brothers, shot up the French satirical weekly magazine, and he said that whenever there is a mass shooting in the news tons of people buy firearms and they apply for their concealed carry permit.
With all the riots that took place last year in cities across American and the fact that Democrats who run those cities did absolutely nothing to protect their citizens, some who turned down federal help solely because it was offered by President Donald Trump, many people feel now they are on their own. They no longer trust their elected officials to protect them.
What's fascinating about a certain subset of people buying firearms over the last year isn't that they're first-time firearms buyers but that they were anti gun in the past, according to the Washington Post. The Democrats made gun owners out of people who previously hated or were afraid of guns. That's how bad things have gotten.
In 2020, gun sales went through the roof. According to the FBI, they conducted 39.7 million firearm background checks last year (those are the background checks Democrats tell you never happen). If you purchase a gun from Federal Firearms Licensed (FFL) gun dealer you must go through the federal background check. I've gone through it over a dozen times. Sometimes it takes about 5 minutes and other times it could be up to an hour or longer depending on the traffic going through the system at that precise time.
But, the background checks don't directly represent exclusive firearm purchases. As I said earlier, people have to go through a background check to get a concealed carry permit.
However, out of that 39.7 million number, for background checks conducted for purchases of firearms only, the number is 21 million in 2020, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation. Incidentally, the previous record was in 2016 at 15.7 million.
New Jersey resident Shakima Thomas told the Post that she's a lifelong Democrat who once wanted nothing to do with guns. But following the violence that erupted across cities last summer, Thomas found herself as the new owner of a pistol and AR-15.
"I never felt like I would want to own a gun because of the damage I thought they do to people," she said. "But when I started feeling unsafe, all of that changed."
Why did she feel unsafe? Because the Democrats did nothing to make her feel safe all summer long in 2020.
One gun shop owner said he noticed that a different type of gun purchasers were coming into his store.
"Typically, my customers were always White men and White women concerned about who was president and what restrictions were coming," said Michael Cargill, owner of Central Texas Gun Works in Austin. "Then last summer, you had the protests and downtown was basically boarded up. Law enforcement all went downtown. Right away, we had lines out the door every day."
"It didn't matter if you were Democrat or Republican, White or Black," said Cargill, who is Black. "One side said, 'Trump's going to be reelected and it's going to get violent,' and the other said, 'Biden's going to win and he's going to come after the guns.' My instructors and I became like gun therapists for people who never had guns before or really didn't like guns. One lady came in here in tears, with her teenagers, and she said, 'This goes against everything I believe in, but I need my family to learn how to protect themselves.'"

Wearing red on your birthday has always been a tradition for Chinese since red represents good luck and happiness. I have this beautiful red lacey dress for quite some time now, a gift from my very good friend, Antong, last year. And I saved it for my birthday.
Since we were at a resort, I opt to pair the dress with a gladiator sandals (old from Zara), a straw hat from Uniqlo, wore my Eddie Borgo choker necklace, rosary bracelet from Hubbybooboo, Rolex watch, and my reliable Chanel bag. I would probably wear this dress again to a party and pair it with heels next time and loose the hat of course.
Read all about my birthday getaway here.
That's it for today guys! Have a blessed and happy Sunday!


There is a lot in life we cannot control. For myself, living with an autoimmune disease, Type 1 Diabetes, there is certainly alot in life I cannot control. I can't control that my body wants to "attack itself" on the daily. I can do the same thing each day, take the same amount of medicine, and yet still experience very different results each day. I can do my best, but sometimes my disease takes over.
But what I can control? My response. My decision to choose joy even when I want to give up. I can do my best to nourish myself, to seek help and ultimately to choose joy!
The emotion of joy puts your body in a positive state both physically and emotionally. Anything you can do to increase joy will greatly impact your health. Yes, it is said that happy people, content people and those that laugh often live longer, have stronger immune systems and experience less health issues!
Walking truly has become like therapy to me—I started consistently walking daily after my miscarriage and it has brought so much healing to my days. Walking not only gets your blood flowing, lymph moving and oxygen circulating to your body, but it also releases endorphins, which are chemicals released by the body that sort of act like "natural painkillers" and make us happy!
And, just as I have experienced in my own life, many therapists agree that walking can be a form of "therapy" as it physically moves you forward—walking can help clear your mind and help you become "un-stuck" as you are physically and psychologically moving forward.
Anytime I am feeling down, tired or lacking in drive and creativity, I try to get out and move, soaking in the fresh air and sunshine, and its always amazing how instantly my mood is boosted! I always joke that some of my best ideas are created during walks, but it really is so true!
Quite literally one of the best ways to add more joy to your day is to choose it. And, no, it's not always easy!
There is so much in life we cannot control—but there is much in life we can control, and one of the biggest things we can control is our reaction to our circumstances! Bad things happen and it is ok to be frustrated or upset, that is just a natural reaction. But choosing to constantly dwell on the bad and let that determine your day is no way to live!
Ultimately you have to choose joy. words I have tattooed on my arm as a constant reminder. I firmly believe that even in the difficult times, there is a greater plan! Choose to focus on the positive, find the silver lining and find the beauty in the pain.
Oxytocin, the love hormone, is released when snuggling or hugging! Oxytocin and cortisol (the stress hormone) are on opposing teams, so when one goes up the other goes down—translation: when you boost your oxytocin, you naturally decrease your cortisol and stress levels. Stress is a thief of joy, so anyway you can decrease stress you will naturally increase joy in your day. Plus, who can resist cute babies or puppies?!
Admiring the beauty of this world we live in, and most importantly finding beauty in the little things of life, will boost your mood and bring joy to your day. Take pleasure in life's little moments like watching a sunset, admiring the flowers or trees as you walk, buying fresh flowers for your home or sharing a beautiful moment together with a loved one.
For the achievers, Type A personalities like myself, accomplishing a task can bring so much contentment and joy to the day. Putting off tasks or dreams only delays the inevitable and can leave you feeling frustrated and discontent with yourself, putting your physical and emotional being in a negative state!
So make a list and start accomplishing a test completely, make sure to tie up the loose ends so that you get that you get to experience the full satisfaction and contentment emotion! Don't forget to add taking care of yourself to that to-do list—making self-care a priority will make you a happier human but also allow you to serve others better.

Q: Apache 2.4 mod_rewrite and htaccess I am in the process of migrating from PHP 5.3.3/Apache 2.2 to PHP 5.6.13/Apache 2.4 and am struggling with rewrite rules.
In my sub directory I have an htaccess file but the rewrite rules in it don't get applied.
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine on
Rewritebase /dir/module/

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php

RewriteRule ^edit/([0-9]+) /dir/module/edit.php?id=$1 [L]

I turned on rewrite logging and in this I can see an entry which looks as though the attempted rewrite is going to edit.php/186591 rather than edit.php?id=186591 but I don't know if that is normal or not:
[Wed Oct 21 00:34:52.207212 2015] [rewrite:trace3] [pid 19507] mod_rewrite.c(468):
[client 192.168.1.1:43597] 1.2.3.4 - - [www.domain.com/sid#7f057ae2d120
[rid#7f057b094380/subreq] [perdir /home/domain/public_html/dir/module/]
applying pattern '^edit/([0-9]+)' to uri 'edit.php/186591'

Where am I going wrong?

A: The problem was due to the enabled MultiViews option. Put the following in server config file:
AllowOverride Options=All,MultiViews

and then, in the htaccess file, disable the MultiViews directive:
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch -MultiViews

This should effectively fix the problem. I'd also go on to say (same as I commented above) that you should put more specific rules prior to any general rule in your htaccess files. Thus,
RewriteEngine on
Rewritebase /dir/module/

RewriteRule ^edit/([0-9]+)$ edit.php?id=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L]
