There was a commercial a few years ago for financial planning that featured a wide green path and arrow to guide the investor along life's path. As the investor strolls through the city, they were tempted to step off the path to pursue things that could hinder their ability to accomplish their long-term investment plans. The voice of the financial adviser coaches the investor to "just stay on the path." The implication is that as long as the investor "stays on the path" they will realize their financial goals and live happily ever after. This commercial reminded me of Jesus' teaching in the Sermon on the Mount concerning the two paths individuals can choose in life.
Jesus tells His listeners to, "Enter through the narrow gate." The King James Bible version renders narrow as "strait." Strait (stenos) refers to a narrowness created by obstacles standing close about. These obstacles could be the world's view on how we are to enter God's kingdom. Jesus' point in this teaching is that the way to life is through a portal providing controlled access along a narrow way defined by God. In contrast, the wide highway represents the world's "substitute" for the way of life. The end, of course, is death.
As I talk with believers about activities in their local churches, I am disturbed and heartbroken. The Church, which was created to be salt and light in the world (Matthew 5:13), is choosing to "get off the path". Churches across this country have abandoned teaching and preaching the "full counsel" of God for "trendy methods" of ministry. The "fervent prayers of the righteous" (James 5:16) have been replaced with small group discussions on why the church should practice religious tolerance. Churches are more concerned with not offending others than with grieving the Holy Spirit. Peter reminded the early church, that Christ Himself was "a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence" (1 Peter 2:8).
It is extremely difficult to stay on the path of God when our modern culture and changing social norms are encouraging us to do otherwise. It is critical–life affecting–that we stand fast in our faith (1 Peter 5:12) and resist being lured to "enter through the wide gate." Stay on the path until you reach your eternal goal of heaven. Remember, it is a narrow path that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Do not be enticed by false teachings with their "faith-by-works, all-roads-lead-to-God" beliefs. Peter reminds us that we are a "peculiar" (God's own) people chosen to proclaim God's mighty acts (1 Peter 2:9).

The luck was not altogether against him, for, if every man had his due, von Rheinhoff should have added Tam's scalp to the list of his thirty-one victims.
The two important mountain ridges, Tzer and Iverak, which dominated the whole theatre of operations, were definitely in the hands of the Serbians. And finally, the Third Army had at last broken down the opposition against it. Next morning, August 20, 1914, dawned on a situation that was thoroughly hopeless for the Austrians.
And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
He was about twenty-five years of age, irreproachable in his life and conduct, and a holy madman. He was equipped in leather from head to foot, and travelled from one village to another, exclaiming against war and the clergy. Had his invectives been levelled against the soldiery only he would have been safe enough, but he inveighed against ecclesiastics.
Law, respectability, patriotism, religious expediency, common sense. Against him there was only this poor vagabond from Nazareth and the Invisible. But Caiaphas, like other men, does not see the Invisible and he acts, according to his lights, as he was bound to act. He is the great prototype of the domineering and intolerant ecclesiastic all the world over.
'It's a law term, that's all, said the cobbler. 'I don't think that, said Sam, shaking his head. 'There's wery little trust at that shop. Hows'ever, go on.

'What's that? inquired Sam.
The impatient traveler is ascertaining if the train passes the stations at the stated time. Whenever it is behind there are new recriminations and menaces against the Grand Transasiatic Company. In this car there are also the Caternas, who have made themselves quite comfortable.
"We hesitate to turn against our breasts a little piece of steel, or to blow out our brains with a little instrument no larger than our hands; it seems to us that chaos would return again; we have written and revised the laws both human and divine, and we are afraid of our catechisms; we suffer thirty years without murmuring and imagine that we are struggling; finally suffering becomes the stronger, we send a pinch of powder into the sanctuary of intelligence, and a flower pierces the soil above our grave."
Garibaldi once more was seen in Rome, April, 1879. He was supposed to be proposing great purchases of arms, to be enlisting hosts of volunteers, to be planning thorough reforms and preparing formidable expeditions against Austria. But Garibaldi, away from Caprera, could not fail to have his good as well as his evil angels about him.
Discounting for the gigantic stature and blood-thirstiness of old days, as they have come down to us in fairy-tale and legend, the folk of the old Sagas were Forsytes, assuredly, in their possessive instincts, and as little proof against the inroads of beauty and passion as Swithin, Soames, or even Young Jolyon.

BREAKING: Swamp Line 9 – a New Blockade to Halt Tar Sands in Enbridge's Line 9 Pipeline
This morning, ten people with Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance were arrested blockading the construction of a Keystone XL pump station in Oklahoma. Meanwhile, dozens with the Detroit Coalition Against Tar Sands stopped dump trucks in their tracks from adding to the massive mound of toxic petcoke, a byproduct of tar sands mining, that's piling up along the Detroit River. And in Marshall, Michigan, a brave activist climbed into a segment of Enbridge pipeline to protest the pipeline giant's failed clean-up of the biggest tar sands spill in U.S. history in Kalamazoo, MI — and its plans to expand construction on the very pipeline that spilled.
Read more about each of these actions below and follow the links to keep up to date as details continue to unfold, and stay tuned to #FearlessSummer for news and updates on all of this week's action.
Construction of Keystone XL pump station shut down in largest action yet by the Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance.
Reposted from Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance
Seminole, OK: Early this morning, eight individuals blocked construction of a pump station for TransCanada's controversial Keystone XL tar sands pipeline on Seminole land-by-treaty by locking on to equipment in the largest action yet by the Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance. The group took action today, physically halting the construction process, as a part of an effort to prevent the Great Plains from being poisoned by inherently dangerous tar sands infrastructure, as well as to demonstrate the necessity for direct confrontation with industries that profit off of continued ecological devastation and the poisoning of countless communities from "Alberta, CA" to the Gulf. This action comes during the first day of a nationwide week of coordinated anti-extraction action under the banner of Fearless Summer.
"As a part of a direct action coalition working and living in an area that has been historically sacrificed for the benefit of petroleum infrastructure and industry, we believe that building a movement that can resist all infrastructure expansion at the point of construction is a necessity. In this country, over half of all pipeline spills happen in Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. Looking at the mainstream keystone opposition, this fact is invisible—just like the communities affected by toxic refining and toxic extraction," said Eric Whelan, spokesperson for Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance. "We're through with appealing to a broken political system that has consistently sacrificed human and nonhuman communities for the benefit of industry and capital."
"The pipelines that poisoned the Kalamazoo River and Mayflower, Arkansas, were not the Keystone XL. Tar sands infrastructure is toxic regardless of the corporation or pipeline. For that reason we are opposed not only to the Keystone XL, but all tar sands infrastructure that threatens the land and her progeny," said Fitzgerald Scott, who was arrested in April for locking his arm inside a concrete-filled hole on the Keystone XL easement, and locked to an excavator today. "While KXL opponents wait with baited breath for Obama's final decision regarding this particular pipeline, other corporations, including Enbridge, will be laying several tar sands pipelines across the continent. The Enbridge pipelines will carry the same volumes of the same noxious substance; therefore, Enbridge should get ready for the same resistance."
The Tar Sands megaproject is the largest industrial project in the history of humankind, destroying an area of pristine boreal forest which, if fully realized, will leave behind a toxic wasteland the size of Florida. The Tar Sands megaproject continues to endanger the health and way of life of the First Nations communities that live nearby by poisoning the waterways which life in the area depends on. This pipeline promises to deliver toxic diluted bitumen to the noxious Valero Refinery at the front door of the fence-line community of Manchester in Houston.

Activist has Climbed Inside Enbridge Tar Sands Pipe in Michigan
Reposted from Earth First! Newswire For live local TV coverage, click here
Early this morning Chris "The Whammer" Wahmoff climbed inside a segment of Enbridge's Line 6B Pipe south of Marshall, Michigan, to halt reconstruction of the line. Chris used a skateboard to slide-crawl his way deep into the pipe, where he has said he is prepared to stay until at least 5:00 PM tonight. Chris is part of the Michigan Coalition Against Tar Sands (MI-CATS), a grassroots group that seeks to stop all transportation and refining of tar sands in Michigan, and advocates against tar sands production and transportation everywhere.
Chris is positioned less than half a mile from where the Enbridge Line 6B pipeline broke in 2010, spilling bituminous sands oil into the Kalamazoo River. The oil was being transported through the pipeline from Canada to the United States. Recent water samples have shown that the river is still contaminated, some three years after the spill occurred, yet Enbridge is already at work reconstructing this stretch of the line. Chris's action is an attempt to halt construction, and bring attention to the fact that Enbridge is moving on with this dangerous project without having cleaned up the spill from the previous line.
Police and firefighters are on the scene, but are reportedly having a difficult time figuring out how to remove Chris from the pipe. Fire fighters have said they are worried about Chris getting enough oxygen, and have a fan blowing into the pipe to give him fresh air. Here is Chris's statement about the action:
I, Chris Wahmhoff, write this personal statement of civil disobedience, on june 24th, 2013. This is also my 35th birthday, and wish for a future for my friends, family, and their children. I wish that as we are taken to jail, someone else will rise and proclaim, China's oil will not pass through 6b any longer.
I beg in this statement that people do not listen to what they are told, including myself. But learn for themselves how many have died. Learn that they made laws like H.B.5555, to hide that people get hurt, that with fracking and this gas and oil extraction harms us all.
I give my freedom and am willing to give everything to ask you loud enough to simply beg "Please, help us." My birthday wish is help for my community from the people, not the politicians, corporations, and large NGO's who want money for themselves.
Detroiters Block Dock In Pet Coke Protest
Reposted from CBS Detroit
Protesters crowded an area near the Ambassador Bridge in southwest Detroit, Monday morning, loudly voicing their concerns about those massive piles of petroleum coke that line the Detroit River.
The group, the Detroit Coalition Against Tar Sands, is protesting the piles of the substance nicknamed "pet coke" — a byproduct of oil refining used in energy production
The piles have been built up over the past couple months with the pet coke being brought by trucks loaded with material from the Marathon Petroleum Refinery in southwest Detroit.
The group spent the morning blocking the entrance way to the dock at the port near West Jefferson Avenue and Rosa Parks. For about three hour, two trucks waited to get through as protesters locked arm-in-arm to prevent it.
Police were the scene but took no action to remove the protesters and made no arrests.
The group says the piles are an eyesore and a health hazard.
Detroiter Andre Glen, who lives in a nearby apartment house, says he and his neighbors have been having respiratory problems due to thick black dust in the air.
He said they recently pinpointed the pet coke as the cause.
"We bought a humidifier and then we turned around and bought a purifier at the same time, and that helped us breath at night," Glen told WWJ's Ron Dewey. "But we did have issues breathing at night and we'd had no clue as to why."
A few dozen protesters carried signs baring slogans including, "Clean air is a human right," and "Murder" with an image of Marathon's logo painted alongside.
The pet coke, when mixed with coal, is used as a low-cost fuel.
The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality in the spring issued a report stating that the piles themselves do not present an immediate health threat.
Then, last week, Michigan U.S. Rep. Gary Peters said the department acknowledged that dust from the mounds appears "to be an issue during the loading of material onto freighters."
They're looking into it.

On a hot day, there are very few indulgences as welcome as a cold drink. And when you're lounging in the back yard with your best friends, nothing can bring the party to a grinding halt like running out of ice.
Ask yourself this: how many times have you had to rip down to the gas station just to grab an overpriced bag of ice? With a portable ice maker, these trips (and the expense!) can be a thing of the past. If you enjoy keeping your beverages cool, an ice maker can pay itself off in no time. But for this to happen, you've got to get the right kind.
Do you need to invest in a restaurant grade? Or should you just whip down to Wal-Mart and grab the cheapest thing you can find? For most consumers, neither of these choices is true. The savvy buyer will investigate the features available and find the model that best suits their individual needs.

January 11, 2023: Jennifer Coolidge makes a funny Oscar slip at the 2023 Golden Globes
Oooops, Jennifer Coolidge (61) hadn't actually imagined that! The actress had at the 2023 Golden Globes on Tuesday (January 10) to present the award for Best Supporting Actor in the TV Musical/Comedy or Drama category. Shortly after taking the stage, she declared that she was super excited. She even joked that she almost didn't take the job because she was afraid of falling because of the 'over-waxed floors.' The 'White Lotus' actress made it onto the stage without falling, but instead THAT happened!
Jennifer Coolidge announced the lucky winner when she suddenly said, 'And the Oscar goes to...' Too bad the Oscars weren't even awarded that night! But 'Stifler's Mom' quickly noticed the mistake – or was it a little joke? — and corrected, 'Oh, no, no, wait, Golden Globe!'
Incidentally, she was able to look forward to a Golden Globe for best supporting actress herself.
January 10, 2023: Victoria Beckham's fashion and cosmetics empire - losses in the millions
Victoria Beckham © picture alliance / AP Photo, Kin Cheung
What started in 2008 as a small fashion label with selected pieces has now developed into something really big! Victoria Beckham (48) now sells handbags, coats, shoes, accessories etc. worldwide – and is represented as a designer at the most popular fashion weeks. But is your fashion and cosmetics empire now in a financial crisis? According to The Mirror, Victoria Beckham Holdings Ltd's latest balance sheets show the company made losses of £5,887,036 in 2021.
Total losses totaled £66.3million (about €75million) and directors including Victoria and her husband, according to the report David Beckham , apparently did not receive a dividend, although sales increased again. By 13 per cent – from £36m to £41m.
It's not the first time, that the company's numbers are struggling. A friend said at the time: 'It's what gives Victoria her identity, she loves it and despite the obvious obstacles she's a workhorse and very passionate about it.'
January 9, 2023: No agreement so far: ex-bodyguard is suing Kris Jenner for sexual assault
Kris Jenner © BANG Showbiz
Kris Jenner has not yet reached an agreement with her former bodyguard Marc McWilliams (47). Her ex-bodyguard accused the 67-year-old of sexual assault. Among other things, she is said to have grabbed his crotch and exposed herself in front of him. Although the Superior Court in Los Angeles asked Kris a year ago to settle the case through private arbitration by January 6, 2023, the 67-year-old has so far not complied with this request. She has now been given another 13 months to resolve the matter.
Kris should have found an arbitrator - usually a private judge - within the given time limit, who would listen to the arguments of both sides and settle the case.
Judge Armen Tamzarian scheduled a new hearing for February 14, 2024.

The Five Biggest Myths About Tech
Rachele Ciavarella
This year was my first time at the Web Summit, the largest tech conference in the world. With nearly 70,000 attendees from 159 countries, over 1,200 speakers delivering talks and debating on panel across 24 stages, it almost felt like going to Tomorrowland for the first time. (Yes, now you know that I am not only a tech geek, but also an electronic music lover!)
This experience has been very productive and has taught me a lot about the future of tech and some of the upcoming trends in this area. Moreover, it made me realize that tech today is not necessarily what we think it is. So here are the five biggest myths about tech debunked:
1. "Tech = Big companies"
Ignore the hype over big tech. Tech is not just about the GAFA ("Google Apple Facebook Amazon") and this year's Summit really proved it. Startups have proven to be the real innovators. In fact, this year's edition included 1,800+ startups, a startup program, mentor hours and a startups pitch competition where some of the most innovative startups took the stage to share their ideas, approaches and plans for their companies. Their solutions covered all aspects of life and business, from fintech to medtech or even sextech! From e-commerce and retail to AI and machine learning. To cite a few examples: InTouch, a Russian startup, developed a wearable electronic technology for tracking human emotions based on heart rate; Habitus Posture, an Irish company, introduced the first ever clinician-led posture monitor and Virtual Retail, a Germany startup, launched a true-to-size 3D body model to be used by various online retailers.
2. "Tech is a male thing"
44.5% of attendees this year were women, but it is more than that! The Web Summit has been committed to changing the gender ratio at their events, and empowering women across the globe through fostering networking opportunities and mentorship programmes.
Booking.com sponsored a "women in tech" lounge, providing all femaleattendees with a meeting spot, a networking hub and a workspace. Similarly, IBM hosted a thinkLeaders panel & lunch.
Additionally, the summit included many insightful senior women panellists, such as Michelle Peluso, CMO at IBM, Lisa Jackson, Vice-President of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives at Apple, European Commissioners Vera Jourova and Margrethe Vestager, Gillian Tans, CEO at Booking.com, or Stephanie McMahon, Chief Brand Officer at World Wrestling Entertainment.
3. "Tech is mostly a battle between the United States and China"
China's push to dominate the tech industry globally with the objective of becoming a real competitor to the United States is well-known. Everyone calls it a techno trade war over 5G technologies, cybersecurity, AI and robotics. However, one thing that impressed me at the Web Summit was seeing how many countries, beyond the United States and China, were represented. European stands were probably the most numerous, with Sweden, France and The Netherlands leading the charge. High-tech startups from the Middle East, were also very much represented: the startup ecosystem over there is booming, and the region is becoming a hub for tech companies.
4. "Tech kills art and culture"
Is technology killing creativity and culture? This is probably one of the most debated questions nowadays, specifically in Europe where the debate over the EU copyright reform raged over the summer between creative industries and technology companies. It is a challenging context and it is certainly not easy to give a straight answer to this question, but it was interesting to see that creative industries and tech companies often support each other. Overall artistic creation has a central place in innovation these days. I had the opportunity to see how many innovators are coming up with better solutions to increase access to culture for consumers, while better protecting artists and creators. For example, Sam Yam, Co-founder & President at Patreon highlighted how his platform enables creators to be fairly remunerated for their art and have direct contact with their fans via a crowdfunding model. The TV and film streaming giant Netflix also talked about the success of their European content across the globe – including in the US market – and announced they will produce two new original series from Norway and Spain in 2019.
5. "It is all about AI"
Actually, this is not a myth! AI and machine learning were a common thread at this year's summit. Speakers and exhibitors highlighted how these technologies affect all sectors and products and how this will transform not only the way we do our business, but also people's lives. From enterprise software solutions to e-commerce and retail services passing by online dating apps, it is all about AI! A revolution is happening and all companies, not just tech ones, will need to look closely at what this means for businesses and users alike, specifically regarding data access and use, security and privacy. And don't worry if you do not know how strong you like your coffee, an AI app can always help you!

"Keeping Britain farming is an investment that the Government isn't making" - Farron
Speaking in the House of Commons this afternoon, Tim Farron, Liberal Democrat MP for Westmorland and Lonsdale and Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Hill Farming attacked the Government's farming policy in today's debate on foot and mouth. Mr Farron criticised the Government for not providing adequate investment in a vital industry. Mr Farron also repeated his calls for DEFRA to provide price support for farmers, some of whom have lost well in excess of £10,000 in recent months.
Tim Farron said:
"The second wave of the foot and mouth outbreak came at the worst possible time for the farming industry - right at the beginning of the market season. A farmer in my constituency is losing something on the order of £14 on every lamb he sells, and this is the case for many others up and down the country.
"The Government is clearly at fault here, and has a clear responsibility to provide significant assistance to those suffering heavy losses. They aren't the only ones who have a case to answer though, I would condemn the role of some supermarkets in exploiting beleaguered farmers by not providing a fair price for meat.
"The farming industry is vital to the economy of this country, the Government needs to take a long hard look at their policies. It is imperative that in killing off foot and mouth the Government does not kill off farming."

PICTURES: Piaggio unleashes unmanned HammerHead
By Luca Peruzzi2013-02-19T12:00:00+00:00
Piaggio Aero and Selex ES unveiled plans for an unmanned variant of the former's P-180 Avanti II at the IDEX exhibition in Abu Dhabi on 18 February.
Named the P.1HH HammerHead, the product is the result of a two-year effort to adapt the business aircraft to conduct unmanned intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions.
"We plan to fly the P.1HH HammerHead unmanned platform demonstrator by this summer, with the aim to conduct the maiden flight of the future dual-use medium-altitude long-endurance [MALE] fixed-wing unmanned air system prototype by year-end," says Alberto Galassi, Piaggio Aero chief executive.
The first low-speed taxi test of a HammerHead air vehicle was conducted at the Italian air force's Decimomannu air base in Sardinia on 14 February. The UAS will be flown in nearby segregated airspace after the completion of vehicle control and management system integration and ground test work.
Luca Peruzzi
Piaggio's Hammerhead UAV is based on its P180 Avanti II airframe
System certification activities should be completed before the end of 2014, Galassi adds, with Italian military authorities to certificate the platform to enable it to be operated in both restricted and unrestricted flight areas.
The HammerHead aircraft has a more aerodynamic configuration than the Avanti II, including a reinforced wing with a 15.5m (50.8ft) span, increased surface area and higher aspect ratio. The removal of its cockpit and main cabin equipment will allow a large central internal fuel tank and avionics bay to be added, with sensors and communications installations in the nose and under-fuselage stations. A satellite communication radome is added above the fuselage, while two external hardpoints will be installed ahead of the main landing gear to carry additional ISR equipment.
Piaggio says the unmanned aircraft will offer an endurance of more than 16h when operating at altitudes up to 45,000ft, and has a targeted maximum mission payload of 909kg (2,000lb). The aircraft's outer wing-sections can be removed for transportation.
Selex ES provides the mission management system, which is based on its skyISTAR suite, plus the vehicle management and control system, air data terminal and ground control segment. The Finmeccanica company will also supply sensors including a Seaspray 7300E search radar, plus communications and datalink equipment.
The companies believe the HammerHead could meet requirements such as Canada's joint unmanned surveillance target attack system programme for a MALE UAS.

Exploring Boulder's best kept secrets with locals who know best.
Everyone loves a good secret. Be it the hot new speakeasy, an upcoming marriage proposal, or a hidden parking garage downtown, the only thing better than one secret is three.
As a way to give outdoor enthusiasts new places to explore, local experts graciously shared their favorite secret spots to hike, bike and climb around Boulder, and what makes each place unique.
The beginning of the hike is open. Going up, it's mellow switchbacks and eventually becomes a bit rocky; you basically get all terrain. At the top of a loop is a viewpoint that looks over the San Vrain Valley.
It's open for everything. There's a great running trail. They allow dogs on leash, and it's pretty mellow. They also allow mountain bikers, but it's a quiet trail. You usually have it to yourself, especially in the mornings.
As a climber for over 45 years, Daly has seen just about everything. While he is known for surviving a life-threatening climbing accident in Alaska, he has also become a motivational speaker and outspoken advocate for climbers with disabilities and a part of the outdoor shop Neptune Mountaineering.
You can have any crag within this 30-mile canyon to yourself anytime, and it's 30 minutes from Boulder. The best part of the secret is the fact that it's actually pretty accessible.
Nobody goes there. It's a chopped up area; it isn't obvious. The crags aren't all beautiful and paneled — a few of them are — but for the most part, each little crag has less than a dozen routes, and they might be short or carved up a little bit. However, if you want secret climbing in Boulder, if you want to go where you won't be bothered by people, this is it.
It's an opportunity for adventure. When you go there, you're still exploring a little bit. There's ticks, spiders, bobcats, mountain lions, snakes and all that other stuff. They're everywhere, and with fewer people around, you are more likely to see them.
Along with being the local biking expert, Taro Smith is known professionally as a renowned health and movement expert, yoga teacher, Co-founder of 90 Monkeys and Boulder Cycle Sport, artist, photographer, scientist, athlete, yogi, and conservationist.
This highly challenging ride is a combination of road and gravel with copious amounts of climbing for the ambitious cyclist. I find that I'm pressed for time to make a day trip into an epic ride to create my own highly efficient, challenging and convenient routes right from the house. Although a local route, it touches on all the elements that Boulder has to offer: epic climbs, the bulk of the route is away from traffic, has incredible views of the Front Range and Continental Divide, as well as occasional wildlife sightings of bear, deer and elk.

The Opel Manta might have been based on the Ascona, but it beat that car to market by two months. It was launched into the coupe market, taking on the Ford Capri Mk1 in the newly-emerging European Pony car market. As well as combining the Ascona's sensible platform engineering and drivetrains, it was a clear evolution of the GT's styling. The Manta's engine range spanned 1.2- to 1.9-litres, and was offered with four-speed manual and three-speed automatic gearboxes.
A small number of turbocharged models, the Turbomanta, based on the plusher Berlinetta, was built and sold in Britain. A total of 33 examples, with five of them being prototypes and the ones used for public relations. It was based on the 1973 SR powered by a 1.9-litre S-spec engine, uprated to 156bhp from 90 via a Holset 3LDG turbocharger. The project wasn't progressed by Opel in Germany, but Dealer Opel Team picked up the project, building a further 28 examples. As Q cars go, the Turbomanta was one of the best, as it looked like a standard Berlinetta, aside from subtle Turbo badging on the rear wings.

When last we met, just a few weeks ago, I was bemoaning the omnipresence of technology in this modern world–how it creates such a wad of hyperactive stupor (now there's an oxymoron!) in my personal brain. I cannot say that I've succeeded in resolving that problem in any measurable way this month, but I have definitely benefitted by some of that technology during that time. Can we say ROYALS BASEBALL? Yes, we can and yes, we do! Living over here in Kentucky, coverage of Royals baseball, which is the only sportishness I truly care about, does not happen often, basically just when a game of theirs makes a national broadcast. And that has not happened much in the last 29 years, let me tell you. Now, thanks to technology I've been able to watch my one and only favorite team play their hearts out all the way to the World Series. JOY, JOY, JOY! And I have enjoyed being goofy about it all on Facebook with old KC friends and family and others here in Kentucky that have come to admire this team throughout the play-offs. Whoop! Whoop!
On to other topics! My word for the this year is FREE, which at first glance, seems a very nice word to focus on for a year. Who wouldn't want to be free? Well, I had a little conversation with God maybe two months ago about what He was wanting me to do with this word, since I hadn't exactly noticed any great gains in personal freedom yet. That very week, I received an email from the Kentucky State Poetry Society president, a very nice lady that I have never met, asking if I would consider reading my poem that won first place in the National Federation of State Poetry Societies contest at the state conference at the end of October. WHAT? AAAACK! I cringe at the thought of getting up in front of people to do or say anything, much less read a poem of my own in front of a whole room full of other poets. I told her I wasn't comfortable with that. I had only attended one conference, when it was held thirty minutes away from my house and I had had to read one of my poems there that had won an award in the state contest and it ruined the whole awards banquet for me. I wouldn't have gone if I had known getting up and reading would be a part of it. I thought the winners' names were simply read off and everybody clapped and that was the end of it. Because of that I have not even considered attending any other conferences. Besides I get lost going around the block so I don't drive myself all over the state to attend any type of anything.
Unfortunately this year the conference is being held less than an hour away, straight up the interstate from Corbin. So that excuse was shot. But then I realized I would have to find the correct building after I found the college campus and that the awards banquet would be over sometime around 9:00, meaning I would have to drive on the interstate in the dark! This is another thing I don't like to do. I don't like the interstate in broad daylight, much less when I can't see all that well with all those headlights and taillights making things look weird. So I told her I thought I should stay home. She asked if she could read my poem in my place. Well, sure, that would be great! But then she said she would rather that I come and meet her and the other poets, attend the workshops, and she would not even mention my poem at the banquet if that would work for me. I've been in a quandary ever since and I have to decide right away what I should do. I recognized right off the bat that God was testing me on this FREE thing. But does He want me to be free from this fear of public display? Free of driving myself to an unknown location and then driving on the interstate in the dark? Or maybe He wants to free me from doing things I don't want to do in order to please someone else? I could just go up for the workshops, hand my poem to the president for her to read at the banquet and leave early before dark descends. That was what I had decided to do until the last couple of days when I started feeling like a royal wimp.
If any of you has a revelation from God or just your own opinion on this I would appreciate you sharing that with me. I'm starting to feel a bit sick about it.
Then a couple of weeks ago I was asked to lead the next Sunday School lesson on the gift of Administration. Great. I had been trying to decide whether that was my primary motivational spiritual gift or if it was mercy, so I figured God was trying to help me figure it out. And He did. As I was leading the class and talking about how I've always been this organized, list making, inflexible maniac, a few of the ladies who had been to the early church service said, "Debbie, the sermon today is all about you." Yup, it was. Basically it was about the key to living a peaceful life: letting go of personal agendas and letting God call the shots each day. So that helped me to realize that I must be a merciful control freak, which causes some friction in my personal soul. In order to be FREE to show mercy to others I must intentionally lay aside my own scheduled agendas and be flexible. Big lifelong learning curve for me on that one!
To continue His answer of my one little innocent prayer two months ago, an incident occurred this week with a dear friend of mine that gave me the opportunity to practice this flexible gift of mercy. But in the process I was slammed with a big ball of crud that I thought I had released to the Lord. It concerns forgiving someone who was the source of tremendous pain for my friend for many years in the past that continues to affect her life in the present. I realized through this situation the other day that the forgiveness on my part is not complete. This particular person is the only one I've ever felt this kind of anger and bitterness toward in my life. I thought I had done what I needed to do to let it go, but evidently the Lord needs to do some more work on me before I will be truly FREE from this nasty burden.
Whew! The adage "freedom is not free" applies to more than just the freedom we enjoy in this country. Personal freedom takes a lot of work and perseverance as well. But mostly it just takes Jesus. As I was contemplating all these issues and my need to find a freeing resolution, the words of an old hymn, "The Solid Rock" came to me. Listen to it HERE.


I pulled up to the doctor's office this morning with Sophia, our youngest daughter. She had a basic "Well Check" visit. We were the second car in the parking lot . . .and when I got out, I saw a dad and his daughter in the front of the car next to us eating their breakfast. They had a bag of McDonald's and a Starbucks. I assume it wasn't coffee, as she looked to be around 6 or so . . . maybe hot chocolate? There were actually a lot of things about that that I wouldn't recommend.
But let's look at the positive. I'm glad she was eating SOMETHING before school (she had a uniform on, so that was likely their next stop). Certainly not the best choices, with the high fat, fiber free breakfast and sugar bomb hot chocolate, but maybe this was their once a month "treat" they enjoy together. Not my place to assume. I DID like they were eating together. Would I have preferred it around the kitchen table? Sure . . . but that's neither here, nor there and I don't know a thing about their situation. Anyhow, it made me think about a recent report I saw from Welch's called the "State of the American Family: Mealtime a Top Priority." We make it a priority in our house.
Now, granted, our kids are younger so it's less of a challenge than for those who have kids in 45 different activities, but that doesn't make it any less of a priority. Our goal with starting this now, is so that it is a habit and is "the norm" even as all our lives get busier. Fortunately and, I'll be honest, surprisingly, this report that surveyed nearly 900 people, found that family dinners are alive and kicking with most families reporting they eat dinner together most nights of the week. More specifically, 75% say they eat together four or more nights and 34% eat together every night. The question is WHY is this so important? Does it really make a difference? One recent study showed that even just sitting down for a few more minutes each night could help stabilize body weight. That's crazy.
It also helps improve communication, model manners, decrease drug and alcohol use, improve grades . . . and, again, help with body weight. But enough of the benefits, HOW can you make this happen with your busy life? Though it may be a goal to hit all meals, 7 days of the week, let's be realistic. These 3 Tips will help you Make Family Meal Time a Top Priority.
Find a recipe everyone likes—if cooking isn't your thing, pick up a book. Here's one a trusted friend wrote who has a little one herself, so knows what it's like to feed a family.
And while this isn't a tip, per se, to make things easier . . . PLEASE turn off electronics during this time. "Family" dinner time isn't a time to be distracted by TV, phones, texting or anything else. That defeats the purpose of what we're after. Fuel your greatness and let us know how you do on the family meal time!

Home News Army Chief Canvases Synergy of Armed Forces to Defeat Adversaries
Army Chief Canvases Synergy of Armed Forces to Defeat Adversaries
The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Faruk Yahaya, has said that with synergy in the armed forces, security challenges confronting the nation would be surmounted.
Yahaya spoke at the decoration ceremony for the 24 newly promoted Assistant Inspectors-General of Police (AIGs) at the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
The decoration of the AIGs is the first phase in the decoration exercise of a total of 167 senior police officers recently approved by the Police Service Commission (PSC) following their recommendation by the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Usman Baba.
This comes as the IG announced a new manpower development policy which he said was a deliberate protocol to identify, elevate, and position professionally competent officers, who will act as the strategic police managers expected to drive the new policing vision and give effect to strategies in response to emerging security threats in the country.
The policy also prioritizes human capacity development and the welfare of police officers for better police service delivery.
The army chief said the existing cooperation between the armed services in the spirit of the policy of joint operations of security forces initiated by the federal government showed that such cohesion would be impregnable for adversaries.
He said each security agency was equipped with unique skills and competencies which when harnessed would defeat any adversary.
"Each agency has its own unique and individual skills and competencies. It is this individual competence that we should in unison harness and charges through our adversaries and there is no adversary that can withstand our collective efforts.
"We have always worked together and we will continue to work together", he said.
He urged the newly promoted officers to apply their wealth of experience in their areas of deployment while urging them to apply their experience at the tactical and lower levels.
"The message for the senior officers that are promoted is to also carry along and translate their skills and competencies where our personnel operate at the tactical and even lower levels
"Let's improve on this energy. and together we will confront all our adversaries and I say again, no adversary can withstand our synergy when we operate together and we are already seeing it", he said.
In his remarks, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Muhammed Bello, commended the senior officers on their promotion.
He expressed delight that the FCT Police Commissioner, Mr Bala Ciroma, was promoted to the rank of AIG.
He also recalled that the present Inspector-General of Police, Mr Usman Baba, served as FCT Police boss.
He, therefore, pledged to continue to work with military and paramilitary agencies to secure the nation's capital.
"I wish to assure the IG and the chief of army staff that the FCT administration will continue to work very closely with all the military or paramilitary agencies in the Federal Capital Territory to make sure that our seat of government, our center of unity is made safe secure for all", he said.
In his remarks, the Minister of Police Affairs, Alhaji Mohammed Dingiyadi, congratulated the officers and urged them to rededicate themselves to their newly assigned roles.
He commended the IG, whom he said was the first police chief that did not retire DIGs as was the practice prior to his emergence.
Earlier in his remarks, the IG urged the newly promoted AIGs to deploy their wealth of experience in support of his leadership.
He reminded them that a higher responsibility was expected of their new roles and demanded loyalty, courage, and professionalism.
He said the officers must be prepared to discharge the duties of their new rank within the dictates of the rule of law and their new ranks.
"Most importantly, you must in your actions be conscious of the reality that you could be called to account for your actions and the inactions as you carry out higher policing responsibilities", he said.

In the Hills above the Cascata delle Marmore; and Two Views of the Santuario della Madonna del Ponte at Narni
Ancona to Rome Sketchbook
Turner Bequest CLXXVII 49
At Terni, Turner made a short detour from his route in order to visit the nearby Falls of Terni, or Cascata delle Marmore, an impressive waterfall created by the descent of the River Velino into the valley below. For a full discussion see folio 55 verso (D14760). There were several locations from which to view the cascading water, including the Belvedere Inferiore near the bottom, and the Belvedere Superiore, a point almost level with the brink of the cascading waters. This sketch, which continues on the opposite sheet of the double-page spread, see folio 48 verso (D14747), appears to have been drawn from a position on the hill immediately above the top of the falls, higher than the Belvedere Superiore, looking down.
Turner has also used the remaining space on this page for two landscape sketches drawn at a later date with the sketchbook held vertically like a notebook. The subject of these views is the Church of the Santuario della Madonna del Ponte at Narni, with the sole surviving arch of the Roman Bridge of Augustus, see folio 61 verso (D14772). A related sketch from Turner's return journey can be found in the Rome to Florence sketchbook (Tate D16529; Turner Bequest CXCI 24).

Tottenham defender Danny Rose is currently sidelined with a groin injury and the latest update from the club was that he was progressing with rehabilitation.
Spurs travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday night for a Premier League clash and the 27-year-old will be a colossal miss if he is ruled out due to his injury problems.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino is likely to deliver an update on the England international imminently, but supporters should be sweating on his fitness ahead of the game.
Rose is a left-back that has started to get back into form this season and the North London club could really use his pace for their trip to Molineux.
Wolves are an attacking team that have serious pace out wide in the shape of Adama Traore and Helder Costa, who love to run at full-backs and should be confident of causing damage at home.
Pochettino would surely love to have an injection of pace at the back to help nullify that threat and without Rose his team could be exposed down their left.
Ben Davies is likely to get the nod in the full-back spot if Rose is sidelined and he is certainly someone that has struggled in the past against pace.


Bangladesh enjoys six seasons in a year-each distinct from the other in respect of gaiety, color and complexion. The ever changing varieties that the landscape present with the passing of each of the seasons are vivid and colorful which leave their imprints on the minds of the country's dwellers shaping their sense and sensibilities.
The Summer is characterized by sweltering heats punctuated at times by devastating nor'wester or the Kalbaishakhi with the accompaniment of thunder, lightning and hailstorm.
Next comes the Rainy season with its torrential rains often flooding and inundating rivers, meadows, fields and countryside. The country, as if, bathes in fresh waters when the exotic flowers bloom and rhythmic sounds of rainfall resembles a melodious symphony.
Rainy season is followed by early Autumn when white sails of clouds lazily ply over the deep blue sky and various indigenous flowers rich with fragrance and color abound and the moonlit night in a typical rural setting gives a romantic aura.
Late Autumn is known as the harvesting season. Ripe yellowing paddy fields with mists, fog and dew drops on the leaves present a mystic look to the surrounding.
The winter overlaps the late Autumn when weather usually remains dry and temperature goes down considerably. It is also the season of variety of homegrown vegetables and delicious country cakes called Pitha.
Spring, the best of all seasons, rounds off the Bangla calendar. It is the season of music and merriment, marriage and festivals, blossoming flora and singing birds, bees and butterflies.
The six seasons not only shape and reshape,the landscape but also mould and influence the life-style of the people.


This post was last edited by AceNP at 2018-10-16 04:46. Is there any way to connect to the internet using the 2nd port(the one titled LAN 2)? Please note I'm using the 1st port for my wireless router, but I'd like to connect my pc directly to the ont for higher internet speeds. I'd appreciate modifying the ont to not ruin my connection to the router through the 1st port.
I'm saying I tried and it's not working. I get an ethernet connection for an unidentified network when I try to use port 2 to connect my pc.

If you are like most Christian men, then you want your prayer times to really count. Time is hard to come by so when you finally get some for spiritual purposes, use it wisely.
There are many benefits to having regular prayer times.
Being an Active Biblical Man really does mean being a prayer warrior. It means being spiritually exercised with regular prayer times. It's been said many times, from pulpits across America, "No Prayer, No Power".
However, proper prayer times will benefit you, the ones you love, your church, and your community. You will be healthier and happier as a result of spending time with your Heavenly Father.
Quick Tip: Never make prayer times a chore.
If you force your prayer life, then you are starting on the wrong foot. Find pleasure and peace in our stressful and fast paced lives, through purposeful prayer times.
As you read this post, you might want to be ready to save it, and share it, because the principles you will discover here really are powerful. Here we go!
As usual, there is a time and place for everything. The same is true for truly maximizing your prayer times. When it comes to deciding on the proper time, consider that if something is important to you, then you find the time. Don't be too regimented, or overly strict with the schedule.
Prayer should be a fluid and natural part of your Christian life. When you find some margin in your schedule, take advantage of it. The right place to pray is important too. Preferably, when possible, it's ideal to be somewhere quiet. At the very least, it should be in a place where distractions won't be a nuisance.
Once you decide on a time and a place, make it as comfortable and conducive to prayer times as possible. Turn off your smart phone, get your Bible out, and open to a favorite place, like Psalms or Proverbs. Read a few portions of scripture, and settle in for a blessing!
Often times when we finally get some time to pray, we begin with a rush, and a list, and an agenda. This is actually counter productive. The blessing is that your prayer times actually serve as a solution, to those very problems. That is another great reason for making time for prayer.
Take a few moments to breathe, slow down, and relax. The scriptures are clear that prayer and meditation go hand in hand.
Meditation involves both the heart and the mind. So clear away the mental and emotional clutter, and get ready to engage the true and living God in prayer.
You need this time of spiritual growth and strengthening, so take it seriously, but naturally. Let the Holy Spirit begin to minister as only He can.
As you approach our loving Heavenly Father, remember who you are approaching. He is the great I AM, the eternally existent creator of Heaven and Earth. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the all knowing, all powerful, and ever present Jehovah God.
He knows who you are, and He loves you.
Too often we approach God and we are full of ourselves. Not necessarily in an arrogant way, but in a real way. Daily life contributes to that reality, and we have to deal with that first.
Remember that God is spiritual, and that those that worship Him will worship Him "in spirit and in truth". This is the wonderful God that you are reaching out to. While you are praying for the things that are on your heart and mind, He is changing you from the inside out. Only God can do that!
If you really want God to change you, it has to start on the inside. Prayer is the mightiest process to make that happen. It is a God-given scriptural mandate, that has a powerful impact on your very soul!
Once your prayer has begun, and you have called on the Lord, remember that He is worthy!
He is worthy of your admiration, adoration, and affection. He is worthy of power and praise, glory and honor! In all of that, he has blessed you.
As you soak in His presence, take inventory of your many blessings. The Lord loves a heart of gratitude. We are all undeserving recipients of his grace, mercy, love, and acceptance through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Express your gratitude, thanksgiving, and praise to the Lord.
Be specific, and thank Him for some recent blessings, and answered prayers.
This step will help to prepare you with an attitude of gratitude! Your reliance upon God is acknowledged here, and you are more ready to pray because of it.
Don't skip this step, if anything make more of it.
When it is time to begin petitioning the Lord for your requests, start by praying for others. No doubt you have a list of things that people have asked you to pray for. Now is the time to keep your promise to pray for them.
If you have a written list, great, if not then exercise your mind and remember those requests. Some people are list makers. If that is you, then great, make a prayer list. However, don't let that list bind you to it.
Be ready for the Lord to bring things up by putting something else on your heart.
God's agenda should always be a priority over your own, no matter how good your intentions are. Your family, each by name, should be at the top of that list. Then, working out from there to extended family, close friends, co-workers, your pastor, and any others that come to mind. As they come to mind, lift them up in prayer by name.
If you are married and have children, now is your chance to pray for them, like you know you should. Realizing that you don't always have time to pray like this, take full advantage, and use this valuable time of prayer wisely.
Now that you have put God first, and others before yourself, it is time for your own personal requests. There are certainly many things that you can pray for, your job situation, your relationship issues, your hopes and dreams. All of that is appropriate to pray over.
Ask God to give you wisdom.
Ask God to lead and guide your life.
Ask God to perform his will in and through you.
Ask God to protect and provide for you.
Ask God to give you strength to face your difficulties.
Ask God to forgive your failures, shortcomings, and sin.
Ask God to make you more like Jesus.
There is a lot of food for thought in those suggestions listed here. Feel free to write them down in the back of your Bible, or in your prayer journal. If you don't have a prayer journal, there are some great ones listed a the bottom of this post.
7. Always close your prayers in "Jesus' Name"!
This entire post is written with the assumption that you have already asked the Lord to forgive you for your sins against Him.
It is assumed, that you have believed by faith in Christ's finished work on the cross for you, and that His blood was shed as the final payment, for your sin.
If you have trusted Christ alone, as your only hope of salvation, and not at all in your own good deeds, then you can come to God through Christ in prayer.
But it can only be done in the name of Christ.
Prayer is a great privilege that has been given to us by the Lord. It is all for our own benefit, not His. We were created by him, and he wants to have an intimate Fatherly relationship with us.
If you will follow the above recommendations, you will find that these truly are 7 Powerful Steps to Better Prayer Times.
You will have spent a good amount of time in prayer, and will find yourself wishing you had more time.
That is exactly how prayer times are supposed to work. Finding joy, peace, and satisfaction in a healthy prayer life, will bring you back again and again.
However, you will always have to fight for this time to pray. Open spaces in your schedule are quickly filled, and being a prayer warrior, requires commitment and discipline.
The Key – is to start now, take the biggest step that you can, in the right direction!
I also strongly recommend getting a great book on the subject of prayer, and reading it at bedtime each night. Keeping it on your night stand is a great reminder to pray.
Also, you can gain wise and insightful thoughts by reading a good book on the subject.
We hope you this article on prayer times was helpful.
