It is possible you may not have heard of earthTV but almost everyone recalls that short, relaxing TV weather segment before the news with views from around the world. That is earthTV in a nutshell: globetrotting by anyone from anywhere.
earthTV invites destinations worldwide to benefit from its live destination marketing service, and is making a first appearance at ITB Berlin 2016 in Hall 1.1 104c.
Imagine! No, not referring to John Lennon's song – although this tune can get you in the right mood for the stunning visuals of earthTV – but referring to the three and half year young company started by two brothers passionate about visual media and travel. Back then, the Lohmann brothers started with earthTV what is now the trend, Travel 4.0.
Although earthTV might seem like a tech company with all the tech talk about HD live stream, their main focus remains editorial. "We utilize the latest publishing technology to virtualize the world in its true colours" says Nikolaus Lohmann CEO and Co-Founder describing earthTV, the largest and most innovative global live camera network. "We want to connect people and encourage them to explore and inspire the love for travel. The proprietary earthTV System is the unique medium between our cameras destinations and a global media audience. Our growing network of live cameras act like the eye of the viewer; everything our cameras witness is available on all our platforms, TV and online, day and night, all year round. In a nutshell: the world is our studio, and we spend time and provide focus to show how beautiful it is to everyone".
What is Live Destination Marketing?
You might wonder. It does only take a camera to deliver a video of a place, but it takes more to connect people to it. Grasping the feel of the place and bringing out its uniqueness and beauty, almost like you can touch it, is the focus of live destination marketing.
Because live is simply the most authentic reflection of any destination. Think new media, think all new apps that are going live, think bridging destinations with potential tourists. By going live you are walking the shortest distance between a destination and travel lovers. earthTV offers a 24/7 live online stream and peerless editorial coverage of each and every camera destination.
Remember the weather TV segment mentioned in the beginning? Thats "The World Live" the most watched segment in the history of TV, leaving viewers of all generations, places and cultures in awe. Behind the simplicity of this show is a mighty earthTV system that goes beyond capturing the place by using smart showgenerators. earthTV offers destinations a prestigious reach within this program.
earthTV also offers advertising of destinations across all online products with dedicated landing-pages on earthTV's free virtual portal earthtv.com or within the earthTV player (pre-roll video and power link banner) on external partner pages.
The Lohmann brothers background in visual media and editorial technology as well as their real passion for travel have shaped the company's clear vision to be the virtual portal to the world, connect people and encourage exploration and travel.
earthTV takes a fluid knowledge-sharing approach across the company. The creative young team of technology experts, content production artists and marketing professionals come up with big ideas and bring then into being. This fresh company environment makes earthTV occupy a unique place in the travel industry.


Last week, campuses across the UK celebrated University Mental Health Day. While it's always promising to see nation-wide efforts to stimulate positive discussion around mental health, it's especially important that progress is made when reaching out to students. No matter where you go to university, mental health is all too often a taboo subject. This problem is made more serious when you consider that the stats show that students are now struggling more with their mental health today than they ever have before.
The burden of high tuition fees, a tough graduate job market, leaving behind family and old friends; it's unsurprising that many students develop mental health problems when they come to uni. For many, it can be an exciting time to make new friends and broaden horizons. But it can also be an isolated experience which fails to live up to the hype and high expectations. Trying to juggle moving to a new area, being subjected to new academic pressures, the anxiety of trying to make new friends and keeping up a busy social life will inevitably take its toll.
With all this in mind, it's very concerning that uni is a place where mental health is barely ever discussed. When you're trying to fit in with a new group of people, there's a good chance that the last thing you want to reveal is that you have a mental illness. That's the taboo in a nutshell. Lots of students simply don't feel comfortable talking openly about these issues with their house mates or course mates and as a result don't feel any sense of support or understanding from their peers which can often make things worse. On top of all this, research shows that many feel they cannot come forward through fears that they'll be discriminated against by their university, lecturers or even their future employers.
But the problem doesn't just lie with the taboo. Higher education institutions are complicit in allowing students to suffer in silence. Staff members often fail to spot the signs that a student might be having problems, or in instances where they do know about the problem they don't always know what to say or do to help. At many institutions, there are long waiting lists for counselling services which worryingly prevents a number of students from seeking help when they need it. It's not just important that tutors and lecturers have a better understanding of mental health issues, it's also vital that there are adequate support services in place to provide students with the help and support they need.
It's down to all of us to face these problems head on. As students, we need to break down the old barriers when it comes to talking about mental health. There's just no reason why we should talk about our mental health any less than we do our physical health. If we continue to avoid the subject we only ensure that our many of our colleagues continue to suffer in silence. It's essential that all universities, not just Leeds, take action on this as well to ensure that students are properly supported. Initiatives like University Mental Health Day have their place, but it's not enough. We have to start talking. We have to shatter those preconceived ideas of what is appropriate to be discussed openly, and what should stay private. It's time to start talking about our mental health.

With the new season approaching, it's time to get your subs in - the good news is that we're reducing full subs for this summer season to $260.
We also offer a half-season option at $180 if you plan to play 10 or less days during the season - if this your best option or you may require a payment plan please speak with our treasurer, Rod Moon.
All Bears' players also need to be financial members of the Norths Leagues Club, please let Rod know if you need a membership form to join up.


The comment period for the DNR's proposed plan to put a paved trail in the River Bottoms ends at the end of July.
Please take a few minutes to fill out the form in the link and email it to the DNR gentleman listed. Let them know that you are opposed to a paved trail and that the area should be left natural.
It's sad to see the same mistake being made over and over again. As I ride on paved trails in various states of disrepair throughout Hennepin County and around the state, the DNR is proposing to add more miles of asphalt that will detract from a beautiful, natural setting that has been successfully maintained by volunteers for years. Access may improve for the handicapped and elderly for a short time, but the inevitable destruction of the paved trail by the recurring flooding will result in the permanent inaccessibility of a crumbling eyesore that destroys everything that was special about the river bottoms. There will be no going back — it will haunt the area for decades. The plan shows a stunning disregard for natural spaces and processes. Anyone who's watched the destruction wreaked by the river every year knows the inevitable fate of any paved trail in the area. Anyone who walks or rides paved park trails in the state knows there's not enough money to maintain the ones that already exist to a minimal standard — even when they're not located in a major flood plain. A paved trail is completely unnecessary, aesthetically destructive and a disaster waiting to happen — but there's still time to come to our senses.
There are lots of folks who simply don't want this trail paved. We, along with many others, use it frequently and enjoy it as is. Given the already contentious nature of this proposed project, let's not increase the already strained budget by moving forward with it.
The idea of paving the River Bottoms first came to view a few years ago. If my memory serves me right, the intent was to provide an ADA compliant facility and "the money was in the DNR budget.
From the timeline that has now stretched to this date, neither the money nor the need for asphalt has been proven to be the answer. Had it been so, we would be roller skiing there now, if the latest flood debris has been cleared.
This idea of pavement has a very low cost/benefit return. There has been no long term relief from flooding of the area since the original idea was floated. There should be no further action on thinking this area should be paved.

Q: Is there a responsive grid system in Magento's new 1.9 RWD theme Is there a responsive grid system in Magento's new 1.9 RWD theme?
If this new theme is not using a grid system how is the theme responsive?
I've looked through the CSS & SCSS &  I can't find one?

A: The responsiveness can be found in the skin/frontend/rwd/default/css/styles.css file for the RWD theme. This theme is using media queries. See below for an example:
@media only screen and (max-width: 770px) {
  .notice-cookie {
    padding: 0 20px;
  }
  .notice-cookie .notice-text {
    max-width: 82%;
    padding-top: 0;
  }
}

You can read more about media queries here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Media_queries

Q: The ordinal 4445 could not be located in dynamic link library: libeay32.dll Recently I upgraded my project from 32 bit to 64 bit using Visual Studio 2008. Installed my application on Windows 7 64 bit version. When I tried to run my application it throws the following error
The ordinal 4445 could not be located in dynamic link library: libeay32.dll

Can anyone time tell me what causes this error and how to fix it.
I tried dependency walker, and found mfc42u.dll was in x86. So I replaced it with x64 version. But still I see the problem.
Any help would be great!!!

How's it going Big Scott Radio?
Mainly it's Tejano station. But I listen to all types so I have a few different shows. Country Music Mondays, Wayback Wednesday(60 & 70s) and Throwback Thursdays(80 & 90s). How about yourself?
Let's go fast with my forst question !
Thank you for helping and sorry, my english is not perfect, this is not my first language !
The one way you can do it is to set your breaks to continue playing shpw after the break has been played. Or the best way is to make sure the shows are set to finish exactly on time and not have 7 minutes extra.
yes I am using new virtual studio and dont like the fact you cannot hear what is playing in real time rather than what is streaming. I will be asking to go back to older version until they send next update.
Hope to hear about you and your radiojar experiences!

Australia just can't get past waste colonialism
Chermaine Lee
Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines
Australia, Biofuel, colonialism, plastic pollution, plastic waste, Southeast Asia
Experts say the country's hailed waste export ban does not solve waste colonialism, and allows it to keep dumping toxic substances packaged as biofuel on developing nations in Southeast Asia.
With waste exports from Global North to Global South countries growing rapidly, Australia's 2020 plastic waste export ban was launched with great fanfare. But just a few years later, the once well-received law is now deemed "hypocritical" by critics, as the nation's plastic waste still finds its way to Asian countries.
Under the two-phase law, from July 2021 on companies can only export waste plastics that have been sorted into single resin or processed with other materials into processed engineered fuel - an alternative fuel in cement kilns made from non-recyclable waste materials. As of July this year, these companies are obligated to process such waste before exporting them.
Australia is one of the world's highest per capita generators of single-use plastic waste, according to a report by the International Pollutants Elimination Network (IPEN). Each Australian consumes about 100kg of plastic each year, but only about 13 percent of used plastic is recycled. Households are the largest contributor of plastic waste, accounting for nearly half of all 1.2 million tonnes across the country.
The Asian-Pacific nation aimed to reach an ambitious 70 percent recycling rate of plastic waste by 2025, but a recent report showed that without further measures, it can only achieve less than half of its target over the next three years. What's also alarming is that these plastic wastes end up in the ocean and often float over to Southeast Asian nations already susceptible to pollution and climate change-induced extreme weather events.
Is PEF greenwashing?
This explains the hard-earned joy environmentalists felt when the law was announced. But this jubilation was quickly overcome by doubt.
Jane Bremmer, a campaigner at the NGO Zero Waste Australia, was one of those disillusioned with the legislation.
"While Zero Waste Australia supports the Australian government's intention to improve the standards for waste management in Australia," Bremmer told FairPlanet, "this waste export ban does not in effect reduce the export of wastes, particularly plastic waste."
"The ban merely commodifies mixed plastic waste into a product known as PEF, and provides a new market for the export of reprocessed plastic, largely PET, as a single polymer," she added. "Australia therefore continues to export its waste under new rebranded definitions of what constitutes a waste."
Their organisation penned a joint study with IPEN which suggests that PEF, a derivative of refuse-derived fuels (RDF) involve "inherent toxicity risks and hazards of petrochemical based plastic waste containing toxic additive."
The report said RDFs contain a concentration of chlorine as high as 56-74 percent. The burning of these wastes results in adverse health impacts including airway irritation, chest tightness, eye and skin irritation and fluid build-up in the lungs.
RDF is seen as a substitute to fossil fuel in the energy-intensive cement plants, and a way to reduce landfills. But some scientists found that the environmental footprint of burning such waste-based fuels is similar to that of coal-based fuels. The controversial alternative is seen by critics as Canberra's "stealthy way" to handle its failure in regulating PEF and recycling businesses domestically.
Waste colonialism
"Australia intends to export much of this PEF to Malaysia as part of the existing industry partnership they have with Resource Co," Bremmer added. "This PEF is poorly regulated in Australia and globally."
"There is no globally-harmonised system to define, regulate or export waste fuels," she said. "In effect, Australia is attempting to undermine its obligations to the Basel Convention, particularly the recent Basel Ban Amendments, by rebranding waste as a fuel for export and thus evading the prohibitions defined in the new Basel Ban amendment."
Bremmer said in a statement previously that certain waste management companies in Australia are "hiding plastic waste in paper and cardboard exports" to drill legal loopholes in the new law.
Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines are some of the countries impacted by Australia's continued waste exports.
A spokesperson from Malaysia's Consumers' Association Penang made a strong-worded statement, "Why should we, the recipient communities in the developing country suffer the adverse impacts from dumping of residual wastes, toxics from the combustion of these wastes that are disguised as 'fuels?
"Australia should stop the exports and dumping, take responsibility for your own waste. Do not export harm."
The 2019 Basel Ban amendment prohibits OECD member states, the EU and Liechtenstein to export hazardous waste. Climate colonialism and loss and damages are expected to take centre stage at the upcoming COP27 in Egypt, as developing economies are looking to double down pressure on wealthier nations like Australia to walk the talk and provide further aid.
Green experts suggested that Australia should redesign its packaging and improve waste separation, collection and recycling for new products domestically by investing in residual waste research centres, instead of funneling cash into RDF incineration facilities in both Australia and the Asia Pacific region.
They also suggest putting a halt to its RDF exports to Asian countries, and turning to safer fuel alternative like green hydrogen for cement production.

Love God by loving people, even your enemies.
with From Guestwriters we do want to spread this message of love and want to get enough people to see how we do have to control ourselves first before we can try to get a better world.
Our aim is also that those who come along our site, shall make the effort to read the appropriate Bible text and shall take time to meditate on the material.
Insofar as they convey that message, these meditations may be helpful as an introduction to the complete texts of the New Testament, or for daily devotional reading.
Those who call themselves Christian always should remember that they have to be followers of Christ longing for God's Spirit to feed them. They cannot be called Christian when they do not keep to the laws and teachings Christ adhered to.
As believers in Christ we do have to be believers in the One True God and become children of Him.
It was on a mountain that Jesus began giving examples of the spirit of God's Word. From that sermon on the mountain we should get to know that our faith needs those works Jesus spoke about.
As a Christians we should not only have a good relationship with Christ Jesus, but also with God and God His creatures.
As a Christian we should follow Christ's teachings and God's commandments.
This means we have to be faithful to the partner we have chosen to share our life with. That faithfulness demands control and requires acts of love. The keeping our minds focused on the right persons is one of the works we do have to do. Because we should know that we may not even look with lust at a woman, because for God that is considered the same as sexual cheating in your heart!
We also should be careful which words we use and what sort of promises we make.
But I say, do not even make promises to God.
Yes we are told not to promise by heaven, by the earth, by Jerusalem, not even by your own head, because it's sinful to try to add emphasis to your promises in that way.
We also may not seek revenge against any other person, which again shall demand control of ourselves and not getting into anger which would bring us to do wrong.
Jesus gives an indication how in our relation to others we should care for them and even be willing to go with them.
If a soldier demands that you carry his pack one mile, carry it two miles.
Whenever another person asks you for something, give it to him.
Whenever another person wants to borrow something, lend it to him.
Also to love your enemies we shall need to be stronger than the first reaction most people get against their enemies or to those they hate.
Living for God in this life means you need to have different goals than most people.
• Admitting + Mourning self-inflicted spiritual poverty.
• Regretting your self-inflicted separation from God.
• Expecting & accepting trouble living God's way will bring in this life.
• goal in this life to be rich => poor in the next life.
• goal in this life to be full => hungry in the next life.
• goal in this life to be happy => sad in the next life.
• goal in this life for other people to speak well of you => no one will speak well of you in the next life.
But with death we have paid for our sins and then there comes an end to our life. When we die it shall be too late to do anything. there shall be no "next life", except the life we shall continue to live on this earth in this system of things when we have done wrong and do not repent, or after Armageddon and the judgement when we shall be rejected or receive the entrance to God's Kingdom, being able to live in the restored 'Garden of Eden', the paradise, God's Kingdom.
It is here, now or never that we shall have to do and make it. Several parables of Christ show us how for many it will be too late for them to change anything for their entrance in the Kingdom of God … they just shall miss it … because they have not done the required works to be saved.
You are the Way Jesus!
The Beatitudes: Growing into the Kingdom of Heaven. Already.
"17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself. 18 Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.
19 You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder. 20 But do you want to know, foolish man, that faith apart from works is useless?
"You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did" (James 2:22).
"An old Scotsman operated a little rowboat for transporting passengers. One day a passenger noticed that the good old man had carved on one oar the word 'Faith', and on the other oar the word 'Works'. Curiosity led him to ask the meaning of this. The old man, being a well-balanced believer in Christ, and glad of the opportunity for testimony, said, 'I will show you.' So saying, he dropped one oar and plied the other called Works, and they just went around in circles. Then he dropped that oar and began to use the oar called Faith, and the little boat just went around in circles again — this time the other way around, but still in a circle. After this demonstration the old man picked up Faith and Works and wielding both oars together, sped swiftly over the water, explaining to his inquiring passenger, 'You see, that is the way it is in the believer's life. Works without faith are useless, and faith without works is dead also, getting you nowhere. But faith and works pulling together make for safety, progress, and blessing' " (Maritta Terrell).
2:1-4 It is said that we form an impression about someone within a few minutes of seeing them. We have not had enough time to assess their character and yet we make decisions which may colour our view for the rest of our lives. It is really clear why God does not judge by outward appearance – 1Sam 16:7 – we should emulate His approach.
2:4 So we see that partiality which starts by looking on the outward appearance – see 2:2– is in reality judging the way others think.
2:5 In speaking of 'the poor of this world' James echoes Paul's comment about men of faith – Heb 11:37 . One cannot but wonder how we would have reacted to some of the men and women of faith if we had seen them in the street.
2:6 Continuing thoughts on our contribution for June 8th James asks his readers to think on the realities of their experience. The very ones that they would revere were the ones who were their persecutors!
2:6 'despised' <818> is translated 'shamefully' Luke 20:11 and 'dishonour' John 8:49 showing that James is reproving the brethren for denigrating the 'poor'.
2:9 That we should show 'no respect of persons' draws on the Law of Moses and is seen extensively in Scripture. Here are some occasions. Leviticus 19:15 Deuteronomy 1:17 16:19 2 Samuel 14:14 2 Chronicles 19:7 Proverbs 24:23 28:21 Romans 2:11 Ephesians 6:9 Colossians 3:25 1 Peter 1:17 No matter how one dresses up the prejudice against the poor and favour toward the well dressed it is a violation of the Divine law. Actually it manifests pride. We like to identify with the rich in this world rather than the poor.
2:11 James here clearly shows that there are no degrees of sin. Sin is sin. Agreed the consequences of some sins is greater than others insofar as our actions impact upon other men. However any sin violates God's principles.
2:14-17 I suppose one could summarise what James is teaching here by saying "talk is cheap". It is ever so easy to talk about how we love and serve God. It is far harder to simply get on with doing that.
2:21-23 We notice that Abraham was "justified" in Gen 15:6. However it was many years later when he was willing to offer Isaac – Gen 22:9 – which demonstrated his faith. So, even though God saw Abraham's faith no man could have seen the evidence of Abraham's faith. But God knew in advance that Abraham had faith.
2:23 How would you like to be called 'the friend of God'? Such is the description of faithful Abraham – he believed that God would keep His word and so acted upon that knowledge. So we know the way to friendship with God.
2:23 There were quite a number of years between the statement in Gen 15:6 that Abraham believed God and his offering of Isaac. Faith is not a 'flash in the pan' activity.
2:25 The inclusion of Rahab as one who was justified by faith is a powerful testimony to the truth that observance of the law of Moses is not a pre requisite for pleasing God. A powerful lesson for Jews.
James exhorts against favouritism in our assembly. Brothers and sisters should be treated equally in love and respect. Do we naturally gravitate towards some and find it difficult to deal with others? Of course we do. But let us remember the example of Jesus. Although He was drawn affectionately to John (John 19:26; 21:20), He still treated His betrayer Judas with love (Matt 5:44).
A point about verse 19: there exist no such supernatural entities as devils (or demons). What are being alluded to here are people possessed with demons (mental disorders).
There were demoniac people who recognized God and the Lord Jesus (Mark 5:1-13, 16:9, Luke 4:40,41, 8:2).
Having scriptural knowledge, understanding, and faith means nothing unless it is translated into Godly action.
V.8 James is the only one to use the phrase royal law. Loving one's neighbour is the second part of the greatest law (Matt 22:37-39). The first part concerns the love for God who is King over all – hence James's royal reference.
V.12 James also talks of the law of liberty. No longer is anyone judged under the Law of Moses. But, the moral commandments under the Law are carried forward and form part of the Commandments of Jesus. It is expected that believers follow these commandments willingly. Believers will be judged on their adherence to these laws.
V.18 James introduces a third person into his explanation of faith and how it works by love. The third person is able to give a practical demonstration of his faith. James' humility would not permit him to set himself forth as an ideal representative of a living faith. "I will show thee my faith by my works" A practical demonstration of a motivating force that is greater than the individual himself, by which "he overcame the world" (1John 5:4).
2:25 With the example of Rahab; along with that of Abraham (V.21,23), we would suggest is used by James to show the universality of the principle of faith that he was writing of. Abraham was the Father of all the Jews; Rahab was a Gentile who was converted. She was weak and sinful, but triumphed by faith. Not unlike what Paul wrote Gal 3:28.
2:26 Faith without works is like a corpse; there is a body, the substance of which is undeniable, but it is a dead body, and unless the breath of life enters into that body, it remains inactive and ineffective. Unless faith issues forth in a practical demonstration of a way of life which is pleasing God, it is a corpse without life, and incapable of imparting it.
The apostle Paul defines faith as, "… the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Heb 11:1). Faith may be further defined as having a confident belief, value, or trustworthiness of a person, which does not necessarily rest on logical proof or material evidence.
This kind of faith requires development, and if we are not prepared to spend time in developing it, we shall not obtain the kind of faith that pleases God. The more we consider God's actions in the past, and see His prophecies vindicated in the present, the more we come to learn to value Him, trust Him, and put our faith in Him concerning events not yet fulfilled, but promised by God.
This is a true story about a captain commanding a passenger ship who was sailing from Liverpool, England to New York. His family was on board with him. One night when everyone was sound asleep, a squall unexpectedly swept over the waters and tossed the ship violently, awakening the passengers. They were all scared, and the captain's frightened eight-year old daughter asked, "What's the matter?" Her mother explained that a sudden storm struck the ship. "Is father on deck?" "Yes, father is on deck," answered the mother. On hearing this, the little girl snuggled back into bed, and in a few moments was sound asleep. The winds still blew and the waves still rolled, but her fears were calmed because her father was at the helm! Our Heavenly Father is always at the helm! It is this kind of faith the Father is looking for in His children, and despite outward appearances, without this kind of faith it is impossible to please Him (Heb 11:6).
What are some practical lessons and exhortations that we should try and practice in our lives in connection with what James is stating here – especially the last part of v. 13 – "Mercy triumphs over judgment"?
In thinking about a practical application of what James is exhorting us here, it's important to keep in mind that within the pages of the Bible there are a number of very positive references to the idea of judgment. Though we might tend to immediately think of Christ's words – "Judge not that you be not judged" (Mat. 7:1), there are a number of times where the flip side of the concept is there in such words as "judge righteous judgment" (Jn. 7:24) and Paul's words concerning the ongoing fornication in the Corinthian ecclesia – "What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? God will judge those outside. Expel the wicked man from among you" ((1 Cor. 5:12,13).
In the example that James uses following up his statement about mercy triumphing over judgment (v. 13) – in James 2:14-17 he gives the example of a brother or sister without clothes and daily food and what should be done by the ecclesia in that situation. What he doesn't state is the reason for them to be in such a destitute situation. Was it due to things beyond their control? Or did they do certain things that brought this dire condition on themselves? Were they able-bodied and in a position to seek employment and get themselves out of this situation without having to come to the ecclesia for help? Whatever their situation was, James states categorically that the attitude that wishes them well without providing for their physical needs is an example of faith without works being dead. So the #1 priority of the ecclesia is to provide help when they have it within their power to do so. And, of course, the same should be true for individual believers in Christ.
When a tough-to-decide situation comes up ecclesially where both sides – the severe and the lenient (merciful) – both have positive things that can be said for deciding in that particular way, I, for one, will always choose the side of mercy for this one simple reason. I know that on that great day of judgment, I will need all the mercy my Lord can muster on my behalf. So how can I go the other way? If I'm going to err, it is going to be on the side of mercy.
When James spoke about people showing faith through the things that they did, he gave two examples. One of them was Abraham as he was about to sacrifice Isaac, and the other was Rahab, as she hid the spies and sent them off in a different direction.
Neither of these actions were really common-sense logical. After all, if you had been promised that your son was to be your heir, and the door to a multitude of descendants, it would seem stupid to kill him! And in the case of Rahab, when approached by people who were planning to flatten her city, it doesn't seem right to hide and protect them.
But, both Abraham and Rahab had their eyes on something bigger and better when they acted in faith. Abraham was so sure God's promises would be fulfilled, that he obeyed anyway. And Rahab was so sure of God's strength, and that God was good to those who were good to Israel, that she put her own life in peril from the authorities in Jericho to put her trust in God.
What faith opportunities do we have in our lives? What about the opportunities to let God take vengeance rather than ourselves? What about forgiving others and trusting God for the rest? Or giving money or possessions away when asked? Or speaking out about our faith in God at an appropriate time?
Faith is seen in what we do. Let's make sure God sees it in our lives.
From v14 to v26 James explains how faith without works is dead. It's a difficult concept to grasp, so perhaps an analogy may help.
"Mummy. Why isn't that bird moving?".
We suspected the bird had flown into the glass and either stunned or killed itself, but we didn't tell the child.
we said, while earnestly hoping that the bird was going to get up at any moment and fly away.
But what can we do if we suspect this is so with us? The first step is to pray to God, confessing our lack of faith and asking for help. If we want to be alive, seek for it, and ask, we will have our faith revived, as promised in Luke 11:9-13.
(01/07/2016) Salvation Only Through Christ?

The 10 Best Catcher's Bags
This wiki has been updated 29 times since it was first published in July of 2015. Playing baseball can be a lot of fun, but hauling all that equipment around is another story. Stay organized and get your bats, helmet, face guard, and chest protector to the game safely and securely by investing in one of the handy catcher's bags featured here. You'll find options to match a range of budgets and skill levels, and they come in tons of different colors, too. When users buy our independently chosen editorial selections, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.
1. Under Armour Professional
The Under Armour Professional (about $67) features anti-microbial, odor-reducing technology to help keep your gear smelling fresh. Its main compartment is large enough to hold a full kit and then some, and its wide base offers good stability.
Five organizational sections
Four-way stretch material
Dries very quickly
2. Champro Sports
The reliable Champro Sports (appx. $102) is a spacious option that is built to accommodate a ton of equipment. It comes with separate upper and lower compartments, so you can keep your clean change of clothes away from your dirty, sweaty gear.
Removable laundry bag
Velcro divider for organization
Great for umpires as well
3. Boombah Brute
If you want a bag that matches your team's colors, then consider the Boombah Brute (around $84), which is available in over 40 color combinations. The build quality is outstanding, too, as it is made with thick polyester and tear-resistant nylon.
Handles on both ends
Plastic base panels for stability
Two individual bat pockets
For this update, we removed the Rawlings Workhorse, Maxops Cheetah Camouflage, and Mizuno Samurai due to availability concerns. We also replaced the No Errors E2, a wheeled model that had accrued significant complaints about the durability of its zippers.
We added the Rawlings Covert, a budget-friendly option that still has the space for all your catching equipment. It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but if you don't have the budget for a higher-end model, this bag would be a great choice.
We also added two backpack-style options, the Easton E610CBP and Rawlings R1801. These are not only easier to fit into car trunks for travel, but can also be worn while riding a bike, something that wouldn't be possible with a duffel-bag-style or wheeled bag.
If you're looking to upgrade your current gear, you may want to consider one of these youth catcher sets. They all include a helmet, chest protector, and leg guards, at a range of prices and styles. Or, one of these youth baseball bats could also make a great addition to your new bag.
In creating this list of the best catcher's bags on the market, including options that feature ample storage space — particularly separate compartments — was a primary concern. Other practical details like odor-fighting technology, identification card slots, and durable, puncture-resistant fabric were prioritized during the compilation process.
The Bownet Commander was added to the list because of its sturdy construction and popularity among baseball players of various skill levels. In general, the products featured here are designed to last for quite a while. Considering the seasonal nature of baseball, these bags should survive several years of regular use from spring through fall. Even when loaded with multiple bats and additional heavy gear, you should be able to count on any one of these bags to stand up to wear and tear remarkably well.
4. Bownet Commander Black
The Bownet Commander Black (around $220) has a special molded case that is firm enough to keep helmets and shoes protected from damage. It also boasts a personalization panel where you can include your name, contact information, or your team's logo.
Double stitching around handle
Wheels roll quietly
Stands upright on its own
5. Easton E610CBP
The backpack-style design of the Easton E610CBP (appx. $100) makes it convenient to carry, but also has enough space to hold your mitts, chest protector, and helmet. Plus, its large vented compartment increases airflow and reduces moisture buildup.
Mesh sleeves for leg guards
6. DeMarini Grind
The DeMarini Grind (about $112) features 2 fence hooks for convenient dugout storage, and its removable nameplate can be customized to your team or number. Its padded sleeves keep your bats from getting dinged up while traveling, and the ventilated shoe compartment is easy to access.
Two large exterior pockets
Wheels have 3-inch clearance
Large zipper pulls are easy to grab
7. Rawlings R1801
The Rawlings R1801 (around $144) can be used as either a backpack or a rolling bag, thanks to its comfortable shoulder straps and telescopic handle. Its dedicated glove pocket means you won't waste time looking for it, and the fleece-lined compartment is perfect for cell phones.
Leg guard storage on outside
Tarpaulin bottom is easy to clean

The Greatest Catchers Of The MLB
Berra was the catcher for the famous perfect game pitched by Don Larsen during the 1956 World Series, another moment that helped cement his legacy.
The catcher might be one of the most underrated positions in all of professional sports. Without a reliable catcher on the receiving end of the throw, Nolan Ryan would never have thrown his record seven no-hitter games. (He also holds the record for strikeouts at an astonishing 5,714.) Without a great catcher, Roger Clemens might not hold a record seven Cy Young Awards. And no pitcher would ever have a perfect game to his name had his catcher allowed for that dreaded uncaught third strike ball to get away from his glove.
Yet catchers always tend to stand outside the spotlight when it comes celebrating Major League Baseball's greatest players. There are exceptions, of course: first in mind is often the immortal Yogi Berra, whose off-the-field reputation for memorable quips and an irrepressibly sunny disposition has done as much to burnish his legacy as his powerful hitting and adroit play behind home plate. Berra was the catcher for the famous perfect game pitched by Don Larsen during the 1956 World Series, another moment that helped cement his legacy.
Mike Piazza is considered one of the greatest catchers of the recent era, and was also an amazingly strong offensive player. Piazza drove in more than 425 home runs during his sixteen-season career in the MLB, and maintained a .308 batting average with an impressive 1,335 runs batted in during his years playing the game. Piazza was named as an All-Star player for ten years in a row, a feat achieved by few players.
But perhaps the greatest catcher to yet grace the baseball field is a man named Johnny Bench. Bench played professional baseball between 1967 and 1983, spending his entire career with the Cincinnati Reds. He played with the Reds during two World Series victories, he was a fourteen-time All-Star player, and he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame with his name appearing on an impressive 96 percent of ballots cast preceding the 1989 inductions -- that ranks as the third highest percentage yet recorded.
Tomorrow's Hall of Fame catchers are coming up through today's ranks of Little League, high school, and college baseball programs. Before they can get to Cooper's Town, though, they need a way to haul their gear to the ball field. The best way for a catcher to do that is by using a dedicated catcher's bag.
Choosing The Right Catcher's Bag
The type of baseball player for whom a catcher's bag is intended should have a direct impact on which bag is the right choice. That is not to say what position they play, but rather what type of catcher he or she is: namely, a primarily defensive player or an offensive player. Some catcher's bags have straps or side pockets suitable for toting one or two baseball (or softball) bats, while others have dedicated compartments that can hold as many as four bats. For the catcher who also has some serious hitting ability, a bag able to carry multiple bats is important. For the player who merely wants to get through their at-bats and get back behind the plate, bat carrying is less important.
Choose a bag that can fit into locker space at the field if need be–especially if you play on a traveling team–and that can easily be stored away at home, as well.
What is important for all players is to choose a bag they can comfortably move about even when it is fully loaded. Many catcher's bags have built in wheels and handle systems that make them easy to roll down the sidewalk, across the street, and into the ballpark, but others must be carried by hand. For a younger and/or smaller player, these latter options might not be viable. For others, the lower cost of a simpler bag might be highly attractive.
Beyond the basics like wheels versus carry-only options, consider the gear in your personal player's kit and then compare it to the carrying capacity and pocket and compartment arrangement of a bag you are considering. If you bring along more than one glove or more than one pair of shoes, make sure there is suitable space to keep those items separate. And be sure to consider where the bag is going, too. Choose a bag that can fit into locker space at the field if need be–especially if you play on a traveling team–and that can easily be stored away at home, as well.
Other Uses For A Catcher's Bag
Just as you're allowed to put other things than legal briefs in a briefcase and more than just cash in a billfold, so too can you use a catcher's bag for much more than just the accoutrements that a baseball (or softball) catcher might need. First and foremost, consider using your catcher's bag for toting other sporting equipment.
The sturdy walls and ample storage space of a catcher's bag also make them good options for use as duffel bags during travel.
Many such bags are suitable for carrying tennis or squash rackets, or for field hockey or lacrosse sticks. The ample room inside a catcher's bag can accommodate the pads used for lacrosse as well, or can be filled with cleats, shin guards, and even a ball or two for the soccer player.
In a pinch, a catcher's bag designed to hold several baseball bats could even carry golf clubs. And, of course, these bags are more than suitable for use as a gym bag, especially given the ventilated pockets many of them feature, which are perfect for carrying those sweaty clothes you peel off after your workout.
The sturdy walls and ample storage space of a catcher's bag also make them good options for use as duffel bags during travel. Their wheels allow for easy movement down city streets or through airports or train stations, and their multiple pockets allow for easy organization of your clothing, toiletries, and other sundry items.

Q: Conflict with counting filled fields with input hints. Any work around? I have a script to count the number of fields that are filled.  Works great.  But I discovered the script only counts the fields that DO NOT have input hints.  Is there any work around?
http://jsbin.com/oguzaj/4
SCRIPT TO COUNT FIELDS:
$(document).ready(function () {
    (function ($) {

        $('#form_register').on('keyup change', function () {
            var number = 0;
            $(this).find('input, textarea').each(function () {
                if (this.value !== '') {
                    $('.input_count').val(number++);
                }
            });
        });

    })(jQuery);

});

SCRIPT FOR INPUT HINTS:
(function ($) {
    $.fn.hint = function (blurClass) {
        if (!blurClass) {
            blurClass = 'blur';
        }
        return this.each(function () {
            var $input = $(this),
                title = $input.attr('title'),
                $form = $(this.form),
                $win = $(window);

            function remove() {
                if ($input.val() === title && $input.hasClass(blurClass)) {
                    $input.val('').removeClass(blurClass);
                }
            }
            if (title) {
                $input.blur(function () {
                    if (this.value === '') {
                        $input.val(title).addClass(blurClass);
                    }
                }).focus(remove).blur();
                $form.submit(remove);
                $win.unload(remove);
            }
        });
    };
})(jQuery);

$(function () {
    $('input[title!=""]').hint();
    $('textarea[title!=""]').hint();
});

A: $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#form_register').on('keyup change', function() {
            var number = 0;
            $(this).find('input, textarea').each(function() {
                if ($(this).val() && !$(this).hasClass('blur')) {
                    $('.input_count').val(number++);
                }
            });
        });

});

Edit:
If you've got an button which fills one field you'll need to add this to the button.
$(buttonSelector).on('click', function() {
    var number = 0;
    $('#form_register').find('input, textarea').each(function() {
        if ($(this).val() && !$(this).hasClass('blur')) {
            $('.input_count').val(number++);
        }
    });
});

Chef Interview: 'Delicious simplicity' is chef's approach to cuisine
Ann M. Efimetz
Chef Ika Zaken said his position at Williamsburg Winery gives him the chance to stretch his culinary muscles in the kitchens of both Gabriel Archer Tavern and Cafe' Provencal.

Chef Ika Zaken has a straight-forward approach to his cuisine.
"Delicious simplicity," he said during an interview at the Williamsburg Winery. He provides his culinary expertise to the kitchens at Gabriel Archer Tavern and Café Provencal at Wedmore Place.
His skill is in transforming the bounty from local gardens, farms and waterways into recipes that provide memorable, flavorful experiences.
"There is always a wave of fashion in cooking, but at the end of the day, the average person wants to go back to a nice piece of fish or meat, with a good vegetable and a nice sauce," Zaken said. "There is a tendency to mix too many ingredients in one dish. If you have a good product, you want to let it stand alone on the plate."
Zaken learned his craft in kitchens throughout the world, including his native Jerusalem, Israel, where he grew up cooking and eating elaborate meals within his family.
His eye for knowing quality meats was honed working for the famous butcher, Iwo's International Delicatessen in Jerusalem. When he was 22, Zaken opened a butcher shop of his own. He has studied French cuisine in Paris, where he met his wife, Molly, a Williamsburg native.
In 2002, he and Molly opened a restaurant in Antwerp, Belgium, which featured Mediterranean, French and Moroccan cuisine. After several successful years, they sold the restaurant and moved stateside to raise their three children closer to family in Williamsburg.
His said he position at the winery gives him the chance to stretch his culinary muscles in the kitchens of both Gabriel Archer Tavern and Café Provencal. His philosophy is that the best ingredients make the best food. That's why he works with local farmers and businesses to obtain what's freshest.
"I love to work with the locals because of the quality," he said. "For instance, carrots may be a simple vegetable, but there is a big difference between a carrot bought from a large company, and one that was pulled out of the ground three days ago."
Zaken said he enjoys preparing fish and lauds the Hampton Roads region for an abundance of fresh products from the Chesapeake Bay and regional rivers including grouper, monk fish and oysters.
"We live next to the water," he said. "We need to get what the water has."
Zaken's passion for his job is apparent in his voice. He recalls a time in Europe when he decided to take a respite from the kitchen and pursue a job in digital printing. Although it was a good-paying job, he said he was unhappy.
"I was miserable," he said. "I have to do something with my hands, I have to create. There is adrenaline in cooking that is like nothing else."
He continues to vary the menus and offer dishes that showcase the freshest ingredients.
"I write the general title of the dish, but will leave things open," he said. "Maybe today I have baby beets to put on the dish, tomorrow, I may have something else. This makes it good for the customers, and good for the cooks. It is exciting and challenging."
