Are you ready? The first painting to orbit in space is coming.
Does it sound surreal, unbelievable or even fake news? Then it is probably time to broaden
your horizons. The first painting to orbit in space around the Earth is ready and set for launch
on December 30, 2019 from the UK..
First Painting in Space is the name of an audacious project created by the French neo-pop
artist Jisbar (1989). The project is the result of seven months of work that combines art,
engineering, mathematics, physics, among other fields. But how to exhibit a piece of art into
open space and break unthinkable barriers? Making the impossible possible is what drives
this adventurous artist.
Passionate about pushing the limits further and challenging himself daily, Jisbar saw his
artistic practice evolve over the years. His restlessness, innovative, fun and inquiring
personality can be seen in his singular work that made him famous all over the world.
ABOUT JISBAR
Jisbar's work stands out in the pop art scene, and his style has seduced major brands and
celebrities. The artist has worked with important players from the fashion industry and entertainment business such as DJ Snake, Cardi B, Miss Europe Committee, JM Weston, Giorgio Armani, Sofitel, G-Shock,
l'Oreal, Belvedere, BMW, l'Officiel design…
The artist's work can be seen in prestigious museums such as Manarat Al Saadiyat in Abu Dhabi, The National Museum of Immigration's History in Paris, the Museum of Art & History in Santa Cruz California, the
Technology and Maritime Museum in Malmo (Sweden), and the Museum of Post Card in
Bau (France). Not to mention galleries in Italy, USA, France, Thailand, Australia, Malaysia,
Switzerland, England…
Jisbar's painting is best known for his (re)interpretations of classical and historical
paintings. His creations are an invitation to discover or rediscover the most famous pieces of art mixed with the codes of pop culture, bringing a touch of modernity to them and making them more understandable to people who are usually less sensitive to them. Each artwork is more than just a homage, as it has been enriched with words, sentences, numbers, drawings that create a whole new story to decrypt and push the audience to focus on every single detail enabling him to find new elements at every new glance.
Being challenging, he arises with new and unusual projects, like the First Painting in
Space, his new project that could not be less daring than his own nature. "The great obstacle is in attending all the conditions to make the launching viable, which includes choosing special material for the painting, definition of the right size and weight, besides all the engineering, mathematical and physical analysis, it's very fascinating!", Jisbar
tells.
While we are still waiting for the first woman to step foot on the moon, it is Punk Mona who will gravitate into space. In the year dedicated to the commemoration of the 500th anniversary of Leonardo Da Vinci's death, with exhibitions around the world honoring the artist's legacy, the painting chosen by Jisbar also has a tone of other
tribute to the great art master. The moon is part of a broader ambition to explore space, Mars the next step. The next mission will be named Artemis, Apollo's twin sister, and there is already speculation about the identity of the first woman to set on the moon. But in our mission - First Painting in Space - we do not have doubts or speculation: the most famous woman painted flown to space will be Punk Mona Lisa. « Leonard Da Vinci is one of my favorite artists. Mona Lisa was an iconic painting who represented women at the time. It's a captivating painting with an incredible history that is why it's important to keep the memory but turn it into something much more contemporary. » Jisbar first recreated the Mona Lisa 10 years ago. Since then it has become his
most iconic piece. For this new project, the artist explains: « Punk Style is for remastering the masterpiece. My Mona Lisa is transgressive and wants to break boundaries, inspire others. Where else could she be? » This is not the first time that a piece of art is going to travel in outer space. Sculptures and drawings have already been sent there via ob satellites and spacecraft. However, Punk Mona will be the first
painting to touch spacial emptiness. To be able to create a painting that goes to space, the artistic process had to be a little bit different. The painter used acrylic, oil, spray paint. All the materials have to fit the launch and face extreme weather and launching conditions. Another important point is the issue of space debris, which has been increasing exponentially in the past few years. That way, the First Painting in Space has been studied and programmed to leave no residue in space, returning to Earth with all elements it has been launched with, including the painting.

I don't believe it was John Martyn, he would have gotten some respect. This guy's name was Charlie Starr, he was blind and played the guitar, no other accompaniment. The crowd hated him, absolutely and vehemently. Sublime moment: folks in the crowd giving the finger to a blind musician.
Bradford Harvey:
My memory is kind of fuzzy after all these years, but I recall a guy coming onstage by himself with a guitar and then, before even playing a note, walking off. Somebody later told me that it was John Martyn and that he was disgusted with the setup and split.

Q: Routing error using node/express I'm trying to create my first MEAN stack application using a course on PluralSight. I've set up my routing like so:
app.get('*', function (reg, res) {
    res.render('index');
});

I've created a scripts.jade file that holds all the scripts:
script(type="text/javascript", src="/vendor/jquery/dist/jquery.js")
script(type="text/javascript", src="/vendor/angular/angular.min.js")
script(type="text/javascript", src="/vendor/angular-resource/angular-resource.min.js")
script(type="text/javascript", src="/vendor/angular-route/angular-route.min.js")
script(type="text/javascript", src="/app/app.js")

Which I then include in my layout.jade
The error I'm encountering is:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < app.js:1

When I click to check app.js it shows the html of the index file
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><base href="/">

So I'm thinking my file reference for app.js in the scripts.js is wrong. But I can't see how I can fix it. All the files in /vendor/ do get resolved, it's just the app.js that's going wrong.
Here's a look on the file structure:

*

*Root solution

*

*app

*

*app.js

*app.ts

*public

*

*vendor

*

*angular

*

*angular.min.js

*server

*

*includes

*

*layout.jade

*scripts.jade

When I move the files app.js and app.js.map to the public folder and then request like this:
script(type="text/javascript", src="/app.js")

The error is resolved.

A: To use the view engine in the express you have to include the view engine in the modules.
app.set('view engine', 'jade');

In the early church, the Lord's Supper was commonly associated with the "Agape" (Love) Feast portion Because of excesses on the part of the Corinthian believers at this time, Paul eliminated it to just the elements of the Lord's Supper itself, and dismissed the Love Feast portion.
It is a great blessing when the two can be combined together. In the Passover Seder, the Lord's Supper is made an integral part, which Jews commemorated from the time of the Exodus out of Egypt under Moses, approximately 3400 years ago, on an annual basis. Jesus took this, and made the Lord's Supper an integral part of the Passover Supper, and opened the way for it to be observed at least weekly.
Note how Paul makes use of the problem at Corinth concerning this event, by pointing out that the very divisive problem by some, raised a contrast; so that those who retained a right understanding and procedure, stood out in their correctness (11:19).
Paul also quotes Jesus when He said, "This :cup is the new covenantin my :blood." Apart from the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin, we read in the book of Hebrews. And so many of the Old Testament types and shadows all point to the coming of Jesus, and how He fulfilledall the past, so that it was proper for the Temple to be destroyed in 70 AD. It had served its purpose. Jesus Himself is now the Temple, and we His body are members of it - living stones.
Should we still be careful and diligent in our observance of the Lord's Supper? Of course! George Muller felt it was proper to observe it each week. It was the centralpart of their service! And each time it is is observed, we do proclaim the Lord's death, till He come.
So - although this is a corrective portion of Scripture, what valuable lessons emerge! "Covenant" is the very basis of the Bible. The Old Testament = the Old Covenant, and the New Testament is the New Covenant. Apart from understanding of Covenant in the Lord's Supper, we see but faintly the lessons God would have us understand. Read "Marriage Covenant" by Derek Prince to gain an extremely valuable insight on this great background to the Lord's Supper. J.A.W.


I've always known I wanted to travel.
Since I was young, exploring the pages of library books and dreaming of the world beyond my small town, I've only imagined what it must be like to adventure and discover the massive, beautiful world beyond my comfort zone. I found myself sick for want of travel, planning out fictional trips I knew I could never afford. It didn't matter so much where I went, I just needed to go.
I decided that this was the time. Instead of lying to myself and and promising that I'd travel "later," or "when I grew up," I decided to begin now.
You could say I had pretty high expectations for travel, having rehearsed grand entrances to new worlds hundreds of times in my head my whole life. Like many others, I expected traveling to be a magic carpet ride followed by life being perfect for a week or two as you forget the world behind you.
n reality it was much different- much more beautiful. It wasn't a magical new world, it was a brand new everyday world. It was life- messy, beautiful life. I got to experience everyday life as seen through the eyes of a completely different culture, and expand my point of view beyond the boundaries of my comfort zone.
That's not to say it disappointed my expectations. There was certainly enough discovery and adventure to abundantly satisfy my dreams of traveling the world. On top of the breathtaking view of Lake Atitlan, I regularly rode a chicken bus packed from wheel to roof with people, baggage, and the smell of corn tortillas. Or, holding to a single metal bar, I stood in the back of a pick-up truck as it drove through winding mountain roads. I hiked a volcano and saw what looked like the end of the world at its peak. I tried my hand at haggling (mostly unsuccessfully), ate new foods, and even spoke a new language.
Yet through all the adventure, the unexpected happened.
Even more meaningful than the scenery and more amazing than the Mexican Style pizza at Happy Taco, I value most the people I met, the stories I heard, and the resilience I saw rising above poverty and circumstance. The Mayans of Guatemala daily survive what should be impossible circumstances, fighting past poverty, injustice, and inequality.
This trip challenged me in many ways, bringing to light the hard questions and gray areas we often mask to avoid discomfort and disagreement. It challenged me physically, as our group hiked up the jagged trails to the top of Volcan San Pedro. It challenged me to be brave, and to be kind. It also inspired me for a future of travels and adventure.
The last few days on Lake Atitlan I could only think, "Where will I go next, and how?" I learned hundreds of new things, and saw wisps of beauty and color everywhere I went.
Maegan Flood is an 18 year old student who traveled to Guatemala with a group of 8 other girls for the purpose of education and adventure. This was her first international trip. She may, or may not, have gotten stuck in the Mexico City airport for an extra five hours of excitement. She has big goals, including creating a location independent design company (she already has her first paying clients!) and traveling much more. For her next trip, she's got her sights set on Ireland.

SUZOHAPP to present innovations in cash management at the National Restaurant Association show 2018
SUZOHAPP is excited to participate again at the National Restaurant Association Show, the platform to discover, learn, connect, inspire and gain the tools needed to innovate and thrive in the international restaurant marketplace. The tradeshow is set to open its doors in Chicago, Illinois, between the 19th and 22nd of May. SUZOHAPP will be exhibiting in the Technology area at Stand #7075.
Restaurants spend a significant amount of time dealing with cash. Relying on manual counting and processing of cash can be difficult and cost intensive. New cash management technology from SUZOHAPP offers an immediate solution to improve cash flow, thus reducing handling costs, increasing speed and accuracy, and delivering a rapid and significant return on investment.
At this year's NRA show, SUZOHAPP will showcase the highlights from its CashCompleteTM product range which represents the ideal solution to transform your cash handling into a completely automated process. SUZOHAPP experts will be on hand to show customers the complete range of CashCompleteTM units. CashCompleteTM Connect is a revolutionary platform which allows customers to fully monitor their cash and generate accurate reporting for complete visibility of the cash cycle. The combination of this software intelligence and advanced processing technologies will deliver better customer service and lead to a boost in profits.
In the SUZOHAPP booth, great focus will be placed on presenting the new CashCompleteTM SDS-35, a Smart Deposit Solution which validates, stores and secures banknotes effectively in high volume retail and POS environments. The SDS-35 reduces shrinkage and the number of touch points in the processing of banknotes.
Additional CashCompleteTM solutions on display will be the SDS-600 & SDS-750, versatile, smart deposit systems that provide a cost-effective method of securing bank notes while improving accuracy and cash visibility. The SDS-600 has the capacity to handle the depositing needs of an entire franchise, but comes with a small foot print. The SDS-750 is known for its high speed, larger capacity, and long-term reliability for any application where securing large volumes of notes is required.
At the SUZOHAPP booth, visitors will also learn more about the CashCompleteTM Cash Recycling Solutions: RCS-100, RCS-500 & RCS-600. These Solutions allow customers to take control of their cash management in all areas of their business, from internal cash handling to CIT operations. SUZOHAPP Recyclers coupled with CashCompleteTM Connect software will automate your cash handling, allowing you to retrieve real-time cash flow data via your computer or mobile device, wherever and whenever you need it.
"We are excited to participate for the third year in a row at the NRA show," stated Ron Partridge, President of SUZOHAPP Americas. "Please visit us and discover how our solutions help you automate all cash processing, improving efficiency and productivity and maximizing your return on investment."

The digital experience of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is a delicate balance of content and commerce. While working on this experience, we constantly asked ourselves, how do we generate and maintain excitement about the show, and how do we make it as easy as possible to shop?
Due to constraints within the CMS, the customer often has to hunt for products that are featured in videos and editorial features. Having the opportunity to address this frustration with a special build was extremely satisfying. I led UX and visual design with the goal of creating a simple, repeatable shopping experience that would not create a heavy burden for set-up teams.
The project began by assembling all of the relevant stakeholders, of which there were many. We heard the goals and objectives of our business partners, capabilities and constraints from our development and set-up partners, and we shared our customer goals and objectives. We also realized that we would need facilitate a collaboration between merchandising and PR (the producers of the videos) to ensure that shoppable merchandise would be worn by the models.
The next step was to lead a design studio with my team and a few key stakeholders. When everyone in the group is not accustomed to sketching and throwing around new ideas, I work hard to make everyone feel comfortable. We have seen good results using techniques from the Google Ventures book, Sprint. Ultimately we landed a few directions to explore further.
I worked through the ideas generated in the design studio and created a prototype. We presented the new experience to stakeholders to gain alignment. Including them in the process every step of the way has proven to be invaluable.
In the development phase of the project, I worked closely with developers and QA to ensure that the experience was built as we intended. The result is a design that brings together content and commerce, and reduces customer friction.

Although we've seen this before, rare indeed is the Best Director lineup where the majority of nominees are representing films not nominated for Best Picture. Indeed, I believe since the category went five-wide in 1936, three lone directors have only occurred five times: 1954, 1955, 1962, 1963, 1966. Curious that they're all within a 12-year span, coinciding with the winnowing-away of the Hays Code and the growing appreciation for international cinema.
The lone directing nominees here represent David and Lisa, a drama about youths in a residential home for mental health issues; Divorce Italian Style, an Italian comedy about a man who plots the death of his wife so he can seduce his teenage cousin; and The Miracle Worker, a surprise Best Picture snub, about Anne Sullivan teaching Helen Keller how to communicate. The directors "snubbed" are The Longest Day's triumvirate of Ken Annakin, Andrew Marton, and Bernhard Wicki (with significant though uncredited contributions from Gerd Oswald and Darryl F. Zanuck); The Music Man's Morton DaCosta; and Mutiny on the Bounty's Lewis Milestone (with uncredited filming from Carol Reed, who was fired mid-production). Here's who made it:
Divorce Italian Style
first and only nomination for directing; DGA Awards nominee
Germi's grasp of POV makes what could have been a sexist story into the story of a sexist. The dramatic score, the broad performances, the sudden poetic quiets in a garden at night, even the unibrow on the wife: all exaggerations, reflections not of reality, but of his protagonist's poisoned, pathetic worldview.
David Lean
past winner, fifth of seven nominations for directing; DGA Awards winner, Golden Globe winner, National Board of Review's Best Director of 1962
A triumph of epic scale and intimate portraiture. His sense of space communicates both the geography of battle and the intimacy between friends...and enemies. It is, after all, those polite conversations behind closed doors that lead to brutal bloodshed across the desert; Lean gets, in performances, in composition, in editing, how the curt calculations of the former are behind the wild passions of the latter.
first and only nomination; DGA Awards nominee, Golden Globe nominee
Nails the child's-eye memory, gradually allowing Atticus to dominate so that the Big Courtroom Climax can have its proper effect. The decision to film Atticus's final statement in one single take, trusting the strength of the actor, the writing, and what's come before - bold, pays off. And he gives us not just one, but three great - genuinely GREAT - kid performances.
The Miracle Worker
first of three nominations; DGA Awards nominee
The dinner scene - Penn shows his chops as an action director, not just in terms of blocking and progression, but in terms of how character informs each slap...and vice versa. Great performances from all, and never judgmental - he won't allow anyone to be too haughty or too insensitive or too petty; if they are, they must be reasonably, recognizably so; no matter what anyone says, we get it. And it's filmed beautifully!
David and Lisa
Does an admirable job of depicting mental health issues as, indeed, health issues, avoiding the temptation to make his ensemble of young neurotics into either a cuckoo's nest of insanity or a house of quirks. It's no small feat, considering Lisa's whole rhyming thing. A promising debut.
No suspense necessary, Oscar and I both choose:
Tomorrow, the nominees for Best Adapted Screenplay: David and Lisa, Lawrence of Arabia, Lolita, The Miracle Worker, and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Labels: 1962, Arthur Penn, David and Lisa, David Lean, Divorce Italian Style, Frank Perry, Lawrence of Arabia, Oscars, Pietro Germi, Robert Mulligan, The Miracle Worker, To Kill a Mockingbird

The Historical Jesus: Ancient Evidence for the Life of Christ
Author: Gary R. Habermas
Publisher: College Press
Examining archaeological, textual, and extra-biblical evidence, Gary R. Habermas provides a strong foundation for the existence and deity of Jesus. He begins by surveying the past centuries of historical Jesus studies, highlighting key figures and offering an informed critique of their arguments. Habermas concludes with a convincing survey of the historical data available to the modern reader. His detailed engagement with early creedal statements, archaeological data, and other witnesses is both reasoned and convincing.
Gary R. Habermas (PhD, Michigan State University) is distinguished research professor and chair of the Department of Philosophy and Theology at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. He is the author, coauthor, or editor of more than 25 books.

Who Made God? Searching for a Theory of Everything
Author: Edgar Andrews
Publisher: Evangelical Press
If you've been waiting for a really effective riposte to the "new atheism" of Richard Dawkins and others (or even if you haven't), here it is—gently humorous, highly readable, deeply serious, razor sharp, and written by an internationally respected scientist. Who Made God? dismantles the arguments and pretensions of scientific atheism and presents a robust biblical theism as a positive—and altogether more convincing—alternative.
Thoughtful, readable, witty, wise. I discovered things I didn't know!
—Fay Weldon, novelist, broadcaster, and playwright
As a distinguished scientist, Professor Edgar Andrews is well qualified to counter the current outpouring of attempts to airbrush God out of existence—and in this book he does so with intelligent and infectious enthusiasm. Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion is an obvious target and he expertly dismantles its atheistic claims, reducing them to rubble with a lightness of touch I had never before come across in a book of this kind. Readers, with or without scientific backgrounds, are likely to find themselves turning the pages with smiles on their faces. I know of nothing quite like it.
—John Blanchard, author, lecturer, and conference speaker
With vigorous panache and deft argument, Dr. Andrews tackles one of the key issues of our times—does God exist and why should we believe that he does? In a masterly combination of science and theology, he reveals the absurdity of the so-called 'new atheism' and presents a solid case for Christian theism. Highly recommended.
—Michael Haykin, professor of church history, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Edgar Andrews is thought-provoking, witty, extremely readable, and ultimately devastating in his critique of evolutionary atheism. He demonstrates that a right understanding of the scientific enterprise poses no threat to biblical Christianity—indeed, that the kind of world we live in is precisely what the biblical account of God and creation would lead us to expect. Richard Dawkins has more than met his match!
—Robert Strivens, principal, London Theological Seminary
Starting with the hypothesis of God, Professor Andrews sets out to demonstrate that the existence of the God of the Bible makes better sense of what we can actually learn from science than does atheism. On his way to this conclusion he also points out the scientific and logical inadequacies of evolutionism. He succeeds in doing so with a deceptively light touch—but there is nothing lightweight about either his analysis or the rigor with which he pursues his case. This is apologetics at its best: immensely instructive for the Christian and utterly devastating for the atheist.
—Daniel Webber, director, European Missionary Fellowship
I recommend this book. I like the style; it is more approachable than a straight rebuttal. I think, for example, of Dawkins' own writing style, which is more conversational than academic, and people are reading his books. My thoughts are that both Christians and unbelievers are dealing with the same issues. You will never convince those truly entrenched in atheism but there are many on the fence that could use a good rebuttal of this type.
—Gary Gilley, pastor, Southern View Chapel, Springfield, Illinois
In our increasingly multi-disciplinary world, we need those rare scholars who are able to combine the expertise of two different fields of study. Edgar Andrews possesses this unique ability, bringing together scientific and theological expertise to present a work that is both engaging and palatable—a synthesis that makes this book a very important and unique contribution to the larger arena of faith and science. This is not simply another book on Intelligent Design, nor is it a defense of Theistic Evolution. Who Made God? masterfully weaves a mature Christian theology with recent scientific findings to produce a nuanced and compelling argument that maintains the integrity of both science and theology. Coupled with a witty and playful writing style, this makes the book a 'must' read for those who question the intersection of science and Christianity.
—David H. Kim, director, The Gotham Initiative
The question which forms the title of this book is one I am asked frequently, an issue people struggle with. Thankfully, Professor Andrews has now written a very thorough but incredibly readable book dealing with this important subject. Drawing from an amazing breadth of learning, Professor Andrews writes in an easy conversational style, dealing comprehensively with the question. Beneficial for the ordinary person in the street, this book should be in the hands of all who truly want answers.
—Philip Swinn, vicar of St. John's (Church of England), Hatfield, UK
If you have been looking for a thoughtful, cogent and accessible counterpoint to the recent flurry of publications by the so-called New Atheists, you need look no further than Edgar Andrews' Who Made God? Rather than offering an ad hoc response to the assertions made by Richard Dawkins and the like, Dr Andrews instead asks us to consider a different way into the conversation—to approach belief in the biblical God as a thesis in and of itself, one that is worthy of our thoughtful consideration. He asks us to apply the methodology of hypothesis to the question of God to see how it fits—and it, in fact, proves to fit remarkably well. With great clarity and rousing humor, Dr. Andrews applies the thesis of God to questions like the problem of time, the nature of humanity and the question of morality, and demonstrates how belief in God is characterized by a simple elegance and a far-reaching explanatory power.
—Abraham Cho, fellowship group director, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, New York
Though a layman, I have read a fair amount in apologetics and this is one of the most vivid and helpful works in that field that I've ever encountered—disarming, teeming with verve and humor, conversational, yet deadly serious, disciplined and coming from a scientifically and legally trained mind.
—Scott Kauffmann, executive director, Redeemer Labs, New York
Edgar Andrews is emeritus professor of materials at the University of London and an international expert on the science of large molecules. In 1967 he set up the Department of Materials at Queen Mary College, University of London, and served both as its head and later as the dean of engineering.

The Dawkins Delusion?
Authors: Alister McGrath and Joanna Collicutt McGrath
Publisher: SPCK
World-renowned scientist Richard Dawkins writes in The God Delusion: "If this book works as I intend, religious readers who open it will be atheists when they put it down." The volume has received wide coverage, fueled much passionate debate, and spread confusion and distrust.
Alister McGrath, along with his wife, Joanna, are ideal to evaluate Dawkins's ideas. Once an atheist himself, Alister gained a doctorate in molecular biophysics before going on to become a leading Christian theologian. He wonders how two people, who have reflected at length on substantially the same world, could possibly have come to such different conclusions about God. The McGraths subject Dawkins's critique of faith to rigorous scrutiny. This exhilarating, meticulously argued response deals with questions such as:
Is faith intellectual nonsense?
Are science and religion locked in a battle to the death?
Can the roots of Christianity be explained away scientifically?
Is Christianity simply a force for evil?
This book will be warmly received by those looking for a reliable assessment of The God Delusion and the many questions it raises—including, above all, the relevance of faith and the quest for meaning.
McGrath identifies Dawkins' flawed arguments with surgical precision. McGrath spotlights Dawkins' embarrassing biblical ignorance and exposes his religion-as-virus-of-the-mind theory as sociological naïvete. This intelligent yet accessible book is a must-read for anyone interested in the subject or for those with friends sucked under by the new current of atheist literature.
—New Man, November/December 2007
Combining scholarship with a popular style, the McGraths examine Dawkins' arguments and find them wanting. They show the inadequacy of his argument on the major points, contending that Dawkins' critique of religion is based on hearsay and anecdotal evidence rather than on hard research, and that he employs rhetoric rather than rationality.
—Library Journal, August 2007
One could hardly think of a better apologist for theism than Alister McGrath. This atheist-turned-Christian, also of Oxford, is a professor of historical theology. But as a student of molecular biophysics, he possesses the dual credibility in science and religion that Dawkins lacks. Like watching one schoolboy do another's work, McGrath's true gift is pointing out what Dawkins is obliged to show in order to make his case.
—Christianity Today, November 2007
The God Delusion makes me embarrassed to be an atheist, and the McGraths show why.
—Michael Ruse, Lucyle T. Werkmeister Professor of Philosophy, Florida State University
Richard Dawkins' utopian vision of a world without religion is here deftly punctured by the McGraths' informed discourse. His fellow Oxonians clearly demonstrate the gaps, inconsistencies, and surprising lack of depth in Dawkins' arguments.
—Owen Gingerich, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, and author of God's Universe
With rigorous logic and exquisite fairness, the McGraths have exposed Dawkins' very superficial understanding of the history of religion and theology. Because he is so 'out of his depth' in these areas, Dawkins uses his fundamentalistic scientism and atheism to constantly misjudge the possibilities for dialogue between religion and science. Thank God for scholars like the McGraths who are committed to finding truth in both.
—Timothy Johnson, author, Finding God in the Questions
Addressing the conclusions of The God Delusion point by point with the devastating insight of a molecular biologist turned theologian, Alister McGrath dismantles the argument that science should lead to atheism, and demonstrates instead that Dawkins has abandoned his much-cherished rationality to embrace an embittered manifesto of dogmatic atheist fundamentalism.
—Francis Collins, director of the Human Genome Project
Alister E. McGrath is an historian, biochemist, and Christian theologian born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. A longtime professor at Oxford University, he now holds the chair in theology, ministry, and education at the University of London.

Love Your Muslim Neighbour: Understanding Islam in Today's World
Author: Edward Challen
Publisher: Day One
The Islamic faith is making a significant impact on today's society, reaching into many areas of life. What should be the Christian response to this? We need to understand the teaching of Islam and its sense of community—we must understand Muslims and their faith.
What is the best way for believers in Christ to share the Gospel of God's grace to Muslim neighbors and colleagues at work? We must get to know them better and have a positive attitude in seeking to share our faith with them as friends.
In this highly researched and very readable book, Edward Challen provides a wealth of practical pointers, showing just what can be done.
. . . an excellent, important, and well-researched book which should be read by pastors, students, and Christians from all walks of life, especially those interested in understanding and having dialogue with their Muslim friends and neighbors . . . I have personally found it one of the most useful and down-to-earth tools for understanding Muslim friends and I am able to have better dialogue with them.
—Solomon Nathaniel, Counties' Evangelist
Edward Challen trained as a medical laboratory scientist, did outreach work in southern Asia, and worked with a church planting ministry among Muslims for a number of years. He is now involved in pastoral ministry at Parkstone, Poole.
The Genesis Question
Author: Hugh Ross
Publisher: NavPress
"Everyone knows the Bible teaches scientific nonsense" is a commonly held misconception. When pushed for examples, many point to the early chapters of Genesis as proof—creation, the Flood, 900-year life spans. And science has largely been silent on the subject—until now.
Examining recent, leading-edge scientific discoveries, Dr. Hugh Ross explores how these very chapters hold some of the strongest scientific evidence for the Bible's supernatural accuracy. Like never before, The Genesis Question integrates the accuracy of both science and the Bible—without compromise—giving skeptics and believers common ground and opportunity for dialogue.
Dr. Ross intriguingly challenges the long-standing divide between faith and reason and between the Bible and science by addressing the relevant, cutting-edge questions of our day. Expect to find your mind challenged, your faith encouraged, and your ability to witness strengthened by this book.
—Craig S. Keener, ThD, visiting professor of Bible, Eastern Seminary, and author of the IVP Bible Background Commentary and the volume on Matthew in the IVP New Testament Commentary Series
The importance of The Genesis Question lies in its painstaking attempt to take the details of Genesis and science seriously. Even if the reader does not agree with every one of Ross's conclusions, one must thank him for this solid effort at integration, and for giving us a number of ideas that seem to me to be true, reasonable, and fruitful for spiritual nurture and evangelism.
—J.P. Moreland, PhD, professor of philosophy, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
Hugh Ross earned a BSc in physics from the University of British Columbia and an MSc and PhD in astronomy from the University of Toronto. For several years he continued his research on quasars and galaxies as a post-doctoral fellow at the California Institute of Technology.

Why God Won't Go Away
Author: Alister McGrath
In a decade embroiled in fanaticism and fear, a renewed interest in the age-old debate over the question of God has reignited, giving rise to a new group of media-savvy contenders dubbed the "New Atheists." As expressed in the works of best-selling authors like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, the New Atheists have found a foothold in today's cynical society, and have ramped up their efforts to debunk the existence of God.
Renowned historian, theologian, and scholar Alister McGrath is on the frontlines of this conversation, publicly debating many of these prominent skeptics. In this thoughtful and accessible volume, McGrath gives a spirited rebuttal to the claims of the New Atheists, critiquing the New Atheism on its own merits and exploring the fundamental questions:
Who are the New Atheists, and what do they believe?
Is religion delusional and evil?
Are human beings fundamentally good?
How do reason and science prove or disprove faith?
Is the best hope for humanity a 'New Enlightenment'?
Why God Won't Go Away explores how the movement's ideas are defined and propagated, helping us understand the agendas and anxieties of this global movement and its appeal to society as a whole. Why God Won't Go Away explores what is "new" about New Atheism, critiques the movement on its core themes of violence, reason, and science, and asks, "where does the New Atheism go from here?"
A robust defense of the God of the Bible . . . This is a book for serious thinkers who wish to make God real in a world that has forgotten its creator and maker.
—Joni Eareckson Tada, author, A Place of Healing
Rethinking Genesis
Author: Duane Garrett
Publisher: Christian Focus Publications
Rethinking Genesis is an assessment of the origins of the book of Genesis. Garrett looks at the various possible sources of information that Moses drew on in putting together his account of the origins of the earth and the appearance of the history of Israel. The documentary hypothesis has always been criticized from conservative theological circles. This has tended to be in the form of outright opposition to the concept and the insistence that Moses used no other source than inspiration by the Holy Spirit. The uniqueness of Garrett's approach is that he combines conservative theology with an investigation of the possible sources of information available to Moses.
Provides not only the most convincing refutation of the documentary hypothesis now in print, but also suggests a convincing alternative analysis of how the Pentateuch came to be. The volume is a model of careful scholarly reasoning, written in an engaging manner with a minimum of technical jargon and a maximum of thoughtful argumentation. Here is a book that biblical scholars everywhere will be compelled to take account of.
—Douglas K. Stuart, Professor of Old Testament, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, South Hamilton, Massachusetts
An original and stimulating discussion which provides a measured critique of the "assured results of higher criticism" but, from a conservative evangelical perspective, seeks to determine the sources that lie behind Genesis. Drawing especially upon insights from form criticism and structuralism the author offers a constructive analysis of possible literary origins.
—Stephen Dray, Minister, Ferndale Baptist Church, Southend-on-Sea, England
Since its inception over a century ago, and throughout the following years, the Documentary Theory of Pentateuchal origins has never gone unchallenged. It is the strength of Dr Garrett's study of Genesis that he goes beyond (mere) criticism of this extraordinarily resilient theory to the development of a credible and extremely illuminating, indeed, compelling alternative - one that is thoroughly biblical, impeccably scholarly and true to the pervasive Mosaism of the Pentateuchal books. This is a book deserving a wide readership and no reader will put it down un-rewarded. Heartiest congratulations to Christian Focus on its publication.
—Alec Motyer, Well known Bible expositor and commentary writer
Duane Garrett is John R. Sampey Professor of Old Testament Interpretation at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky. Garrett has many years of teaching, writing, research, and pastoral experience. He has served on the faculty of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Bethel Seminary, Canadian Southern Baptist Seminary, Mid-America Baptist Seminary, and Korea Baptist Seminary.
How to Answer a Jehovah's Witness
Author: Robert A. Morey
Addresses the topic of how to successfully take the initiative when Jehovah's Witnesses come to your door. This book consists of three parts: a manual on how to use these materials when witnessing to a Jehovah's Witness, a witnessing notebook which contains the proof that The Watchtower is a false prophet, and an inductive Bible study workbook on the deity of Christ.
The ultimate goals of this book are the conversion of Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses and the preventative inoculation of Christians and non-Christians as to why they should not join these cults. The method presented in this book does not require a detailed knowledge of the history or doctrine taught by these churches. It does not require a knowledge of Greek or Hebrew. A layperson can easily retain and use the arguments contained within the book.
Robert A. Morey is an internationally recognized scholar in the fields of comparative religions, the cults, and the occult as well as on Islam. He is the author of over forty books, some of which have been translated into Spanish, Swedish, Hungarian, Norwegian, Dutch, German, French, Italian, Chinese, Turkish and Farsi. He is scholar in residence with the Research and Education Foundation and the Executive Director of Faith Defenders.
How to Answer a Mormon
This book consists of "practical guidelines for what to expect and what to say when Mormons come to your door." Part One is a presentation of the witnessing method contained in this book and how to use the materials in the notebook. Part Two is a notebook containing several clear false prophecies of Joseph Smith.
Trusting God: Even When Life Hurts
Author: Jerry Bridges
Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6
Why is it easier to obey God than to trust him?
Because obeying God makes sense to us. In most cases his laws appear reasonable and wise, and even when we don't want to obey them, we usually concede that they are good for us.
But the circumstances we find ourselves in often defy explanation. When unexpected situations arise that appear unjust, irrational, or even dreadful, we feel confused and frustrated. And before long we begin to doubt God's concern for us or his control over our lives.
Adversity is hard to endure, and can be even harder to understand. If God were really in control, why would he allow a tragic auto accident or a crucial job loss? How could he permit cancer in a loved one or the death of a child?
Grappling with his concern for us we ask, "Why is God allowing this?" or "What have I done wrong?"
In an effort to strengthen his own trust in God during a time of adversity, Jerry Bridges began a lengthy Bible study on the topic of God's sovereignty. What he learned changed his life, and he now shares the fruit of that study with you in Trusting God
As you begin to explore the scope of God's power over nations, nature, and the detailed lives of individuals, you'll begin to acknowledge his loving control. And as you come to know him better, you'll find yourself trusting him more completely. Even when life hurts.
Jerry Bridges (born December 4, 1929, Tyler, Texas, United States) is an evangelical Christian author and speaker. He serves in the Collegiate Mission, and has been on the staff of The Navigators for more than fifty years. Bridges earned an engineering degree from the University of Oklahoma and went on to serve as an officer in the United States Navy during the Korean War before joining the staff of the Navigators.
He is the author of more than a dozen books, including The Pursuit of Holiness, which has sold more than one million copies. His devotional Holiness Day By Day garnered the 2009 ECPA Christian Book Award for the inspiration and gift category, and The Discipline Of Grace received a similar award in 1995 for the Christian living category.
Author: Cornelius Van Til
Publisher: P&R
In this important work, eminent Reformed thinker Cornelius Van Til offers a Christian apologetic that includes five chapters titled "The System of Christian Truth, The Christian Philosophy of Life, The Point of Contact, The Problem of Method," and "Authority and Reason." Van Til begins the work with the words, "Apologetics is the vindication of the Christian philosophy of life against the various forms of the non-Christian philosophy of life."
Cornelius Van Til (1895–1987) was one of the most respected apologetic theologians of his time. Van Til earned degrees from Calvin College, Princeton Theological Seminary, and Princeton University on his way to becoming an Orthodox Presbyterian Minister.
He served throughout the ministry and scholarly fields, including serving as a professor of apologetics at Westminster Theological Seminary and Princeton Theological Seminary and being heavily involved with the foundation of the Philadelphia-Montgomery Christian Academy.
His most noted writings include The New Modernism, The Defense of the Faith, and Christianity and Barthianism which can all be found in The Works of Cornelius Van Til (40 vols.). Much of his work with apologetics focuses on presuppositions, the difference between believers and non-believers, and the opposition between Christian and non-Christian worldviews.
Norman L. Geisler Collection (14 vols.)
Author: Norman L. Geisler
Norman L. Geisler is one of the most theologically and biblically perceptive Christian thinkers of our time. He is recognized as an influential teacher, a discerning apologist, and a prolific author. Thousands have turned to Geisler for spiritual insight, theological acumen, or simply to learn how to understand the Christian faith in the context of skeptical opposition.
The 14-volume Norman L. Geisler Collection combines Geisler's well-known books into a singular collection. These books capture the recurring themes present in Geisler's teaching, writing, and ministry—ranging from philosophy and apologetics to theology and biblical studies. The collection includes two volumes in which Geisler thoroughly defends the resurrection, along with additional volumes on miracles and biblical inspiration. Geisler writes at length on important historical and philosophical movements which have shaped Christian history—for better or worse. He also provides timely cultural commentary on everything from Carl Sagan to Star Wars, plus biographical works on Augustine and Aquinas.
Norman L. Geisler has taught at university and graduate levels for nearly fifty years and has spoken, traveled, or debated in all fifty states and in twenty-six countries. He holds a B.A. and M.A. from Wheaton College, a Th.B. from William Tyndale College and a Ph.D. in Philosophy from Loyola University.
After his studies at Wheaton, he became the graduate assistant in the Bible-Philosophy department at the college. He has since taught Bible, Apologetics and Philosophy at Detroit Bible College, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, and Dallas Theological Seminary, and was Dean of Liberty Center for Research and Scholarship in Lynchburg, VA. In 1992 he co-founded and served as President of Southern Evangelical Seminary in Charlotte, North Carolina, until 2006. Currently, he is professor of Theology and Apologetics at SES.
In addition to the books in this collection, Geisler is also the author of A General Introduction to the Bible and I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist, as well as the books in The Norman L. Geisler Apologetics Library and Norman L. Geisler's Systematic Theology (4 vols.).
Your Questions, God's Answers
Author: Peter Kreeft
Publisher: Ignatius
In this book Kreeft provides the Bible's answer to the most common and important questions young people ask about the deeper meaning of life, their own identity, overcoming failure and temptation, the mystery of God's love, and much more. Kreeft believes these are important questions for everyone to ask, and that God's answers, as found in the Bible, respond to the deepest needs of every person.
Peter Kreeft is a philosopher, theologian, and apologist. His concise, lucid, wit-infused prose draws frequent comparisons to that of C.S. Lewis. He has written dozens of books on understanding philosophy, defending the Christian faith, and encouraging Catholics on difficult doctrine. He is currently professor of philosophy at Boston College.
Jacob's Ladder: Ten Steps to Truth
In this volume Kreeft lays out ten important questions he says everyone should ask. He tackles each of these questions in a logical step-by-step way, like climbing the rungs of a ladder. Because questions are best answered by dialogue, Kreeft answers these fundamental questions in an imaginary conversation between two very different people who meet at the beach. Kreeft's characters begin at the bottom of the ladder: the passion for truth. However, when it comes to the most important questions a person can ask, mere interest in philosophy will not do. The passion for truth does not stop there. It carries the reader from one page to the next in this thought-provoking adventure.
Because God is Real: Sixteen Questions, One Answer
Kreeft sees atheistic and agnostic writers aggressively attacking traditional religious beliefs. In this work designed for teens and young adults, Kreeft tackles sixteen crucial issues about the deeper meaning of life. He answers questions like: Is faith reasonable? Can you prove there is a God? Why is Jesus different? Why is sex so confusing? Why is there evil? and Why must we die?
Kreeft provides thoughtful, lucid, and persuasive answers for believers, unbelievers, and seekers to consider. This book is ideal for those exploring faith for the first time, as well as for confirmation and religious education classes.

Three Approaches to Abortion: A Thoughtful and Compassionate Guide to Today's Most Controversial Issue
Abortion remains a crucial issue in American politics. Three Approaches to Abortion cuts through the rhetoric of today's politicians. Peter Kreeft argues that it is illogical to support abortion rights while claiming to be personally opposed to abortion. Set up as a dialogue between two people on opposing sides of the issue, Kreeft's commonsense approach, lucid arguments, and easy-to-grasp illustrations, make this book an invaluable in understanding abortion in 21st-century culture.
What is left to be said about the abortion debate? First of all, that is it usually not much of a debate. Peter Kreeft points the way to taking deepest disagreements seriously in creating and sustaining honest debate.

A Matter of Days
Publisher: Reasons to Believe
Creation—it's all in six days' work. But did the creation days of Genesis last hours or epochs?
The length of time represented by the word day sparks a storm of controversy. Lightning strikes and thunder roars with questions at the core of this debate:
Does belief in an old earth equate to belief in evolution?
Was there any kind of death before the Fall?
Does the Bible speak of a "big bang"?
Is God's plan a restored paradise or a whole new creation?
In A Matter of Days, respected author and astronomer Hugh Ross, Ph.D., addresses these questions and explores how the creation-day controversy developed. History, theology, science, and Scripture reveal creation's big picture.
Hugh Ross's spiritual depth and brilliance of mind is the rarest of blends. He addresses the topic of Creation, opening many thoughtful minds and hearts to the message of salvation, providing them new reasons to believe.
—Dr. Jack W. Hayford, founder and chancellor of The King's College and Seminary
Three decades ago, when I was still an atheist, a work like this one could have satisfied my own objections to Genesis. This book should help many Christians to stop fighting about how God created and get back to our business of proclaiming that he did it.
Hugh masterfully explains how it is entirely plausible that a day on earth might be one thing, a solar day another, and a day in the universe another entity altogether. I congratulate Hugh on his work. A Matter of Days deserves a careful reading.

The Apocriticus
Author: Macarius Magnes
Translator: T.W. Crafer
For more than 10 centuries, Macarius Magnes' The Apocriticus teetered on the verge of extinction, falling in and out of theological favor. Only one Greek manuscript was known when T. W. Crafer produced this first English translation. Structured in a question-answer format, The Apocriticus uses a well-known Aristotelian polemical and literary strategy—similar to Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica—to address objections from a skeptical pagan. The unbelieving skeptic that Magnes addresses in the text likely reflects the arguments of the famous third-century Neo-platonist philosopher Porphyry. Porphyry's objections address the reliability and interpretation of Scripture, and the rational soundness of Christianity as a whole, on platonic grounds. To each question, Magnes replies ably, using pristine logic while drawing on both Scripture and ancient philosophy. Modern readers are likely to be familiar with the arguments proposed in Magnes' book, but they will also find unexpected new ways to answer objections in today's world.
Macarius Magnes was a prominent and controversial church leader in the early medieval era. Little is known about him, and German church historian Adolf Harnack assigned him to the late third century. However, it is possible that he was the Macarius who was bishop of Magnesia. If so, he was present at Synod of Oak in AD 403, and brought heresy charges against Heraclides, bishop of Ephesus.

Q: Applying rules on rules So I tried taking a total derivative, with constants, but then the ouput had Dt[ ..., Constants -> ...] as an output. I tried to use a rule to remove it from tha output, but it did not work. See below. What am I doing wrong?
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}]
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}] /.{ Constants -> {a, b}} -> Null

A: SetAttributes[{a, b}, Constant]
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x]

2 a x + b Dt[y, x]

A: A few additional ways to use ReplaceAll:
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}] /. _Rule -> {}
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}] /. HoldPattern[Constants -> _] -> {}
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}] /. p : (Constants -> _) -> {}

and Replace:
Replace[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}], _Rule -> {}, All]
Replace[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}], (Constants -> _) -> {}, All}]
Replace[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}], p:(Constants -> _) -> {}, All}]
Replace[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}], HoldPattern[Constants -> _] -> {}, All}]

and DeleteCases:
DeleteCases[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}], _Rule, All]
DeleteCases[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}], Constants -> _, All]
DeleteCases[Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}],  HoldPattern[Constants -> _], All]

all give

2 a x + b Dt[y, x]

A: Try
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x] /. {Dt[a, c_] -> 0, Dt[b, c_] -> 0}

A: Another solution is to replace with Sequence[], which does not rely on any behaviour specific to Dt1:
Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}] /. (Constants -> _) -> Sequence[]
(* 2 a x + b Dt[y, x] *)

Note the use of parentheses ((...)) instead of braces ({...}) around the r.h.s. of the rule.
1 It will not work if the wrapping function (Dt here) has theSequenceHold attribute

A: It's a little bit hacky, but this works.
In[1]:=Dt[a x^2 + b y, x, Constants -> {a, b}] /. Rule[Constants, _] -> {}
Out[1]=2 a x + b Dt[y, x]

Weirdly, if you replace Rule[Constants, _] with something other than {} like Nothing or None, then the derivative term's inputs become reordered, like Dt[y, Nothing, x] (or whatever you replace it with).  If someone could explain that, it'd be very interesting.

Make the drill work for YOU
ACQUISITION OF FURTHER 25% INTEREST IN MANGANESE PROJECT
● Kupang has increased its interest in a significant manganese project in Indonesia with potential for early production to 55% following a further A$6.5M investment
● Extensive exploration program and plans to commence trial production activities
Kupang announce that it has acquired a further 25% interest in the Kupang Project located in (Kupang) West Timor, in the Indonesian province of Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT), a region well known globally as a source of high-grade Manganese ore (Kupang Project).
Further to previous announcements, following payment of the final A$6.5M, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary NTT Manganese Pty Ltd (NTT) now holds a 55% interest in the Kupang Project. Following the final investment by the Company, the interest of the parties in the joint venture associated with the project are now being restructured.
The additional funding provided by the Company will be applied towards accelerating the plans to define the identified manganese endowment including bulk sampling leading to limited pilot production at the project.
The project is located 6km by road from the planned processing area and only 16km by road from the port facilities of Kupang, where it is proposed ore from the Kupang Project will be shipped. Due to the close proximity of the project to this infrastructure, the project has a low start-up cost.
Commenting on the investment, Kupang Director Mr Tony Sage, said "The acquisition of a 55% interest in the project through this further investment signifies the Company's commitment to and confidence in the project and desire to bring the project to production as soon as possible."
MC - $11.7m
SP - 6.5c
Shares - 179m
Options - NQ
Cash - $15m (+ $1.2m in term deposit to fund bank guarantees and litigation)
There is a high spend this quarter of $5.6m, but this is to increase the Company's interest in the Kupang Project to 55%.
June Quarter – Highlights
 Change of Company status, name and ASX code
 Consolidation of capital completed
 Appointment of experienced Manganese executive
 Acquisition of initial 30% interest in the Kupang project completed
 Change of registered office, contact details and share registry completed
 High Court hearing of ILP matter completed
 Date of hearing set for application for special leave to appeal to the High Court filed by Phillip Grimaldi
Kupang Project
The Kupang Project areas are well serviced by sealed road infrastructure and within 20km from the port facilities of Kupang, where it is proposed ore from the Kupang Project will be shipped. The Kupang Resources Joint Venture has secured the available land for the production area and is finalising negotiations with the relevant parties for the lay down area at Kupang port.
The geological setting for the manganese mineralisation is found at the base of the tertiary limestones. The regional geological setting is a suitable host for extensive bedded manganese deposits. The geological mapping and target generation exploration work continues with a view to understanding the regional high grade Manganese endowment and establishing an economic resource in the project area. A sampling program from existing stockpiles is underway with analysis results expected in the July to September 2012 Quarter.
An extensive exploration program and plans to commence trial production with a view to test marketability of the high-grade Manganese oxide are underway at the project. Due to the close proximity of the project to infrastructure and stockpiled bulk samples, this pilot project has a low startup cost.
Discussions are underway with shipping and engineering consultants advising on the trial production. The intent is for a full engagement of these consultants for feasibility study purposes once a JORC Resource and mineable reserve is evident. The purchase of equipment for a bulk sample processing facility is under negotiation. Commitment to this equipment purchase is expected early in the next period. The bulk sample and market trial is expected to be established during the October to December 2012 Quarter.
Once the trial processing facility is established there are further opportunities for the Kupang Resources Joint Venture to further expand its tenement holdings in the area. The joint venture is currently in negotiations for a further 10,000 ha tenement package in the immediately adjoining area of Soe, an area also known for its high-grade manganese deposits.
The Kupang Resources Joint Venture has established excellent working relationships with the local communities, businesses and Government in Indonesia. As a sign of its commitment and willingness to engage with the local stakeholders, the Kupang Resources Joint Venture will appoint prominent local, Mr Refafi Gah, to its Management Committee.

Flipping through my squeeze's most recent copy of Esquire, I actually came across a delicious-sounding recipe in the "Eat Like a Man" feature. I'm not sure how bucatini with brown butter, spinach, walnuts and capers is necessarily "manly" — maybe because the recipe comes from Chef Joey Campanaro of New York's The Little Owl.
I chose whole wheat linguine instead of bucatini, but maybe next time I'll look a little harder. Other than that, I followed Chef Campanaro's directions as best I could!
1. Cook pasta to al dente according to directions in heavily salted water.
2. In a small stockpot with tall sides (I used my trusty enamel pot that I use for everything now), melt 3/4 lb. butter over medium heat (three sticks!). According to Campanaro, all of the water has to be cooked out of butter for it to brown, but you have to make sure you don't let it burn.
3. The butter will get really foamy as it cooks. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir the butter in a wave-like motion to help the foam subside. Do this for eight to 10 minutes, until the butter is a nice amber color.
4. Keep cooking the butter for a few minutes more. You'll notice it looks kind of "sandy" as it browns and some bits may start to stick to the bottom of the pan, which is OK.
Campanaro says "once you get the butter where you want it" add the juice of one lemon to stop the browning. I'm not sure where I'm supposed to want it to be, but when it seemed sufficiently brown, I added the lemon juice. This made the butter foam like crazy, then quickly reduce to a calm brown pool.
5. Lower the heat and add capers and walnuts, letting their flavor infuse the butter for a minute, then turn off heat completely. Maybe he didn't want the tangy capers to overpower the dish, but we love capers and have decided next time I'll add a lot more.
6. Immediately add 5 oz. baby spinach (I threw the whole 10 oz. bag in though…) and four torn sage leaves, tossing to wilt.
7. Add drained pasta and cheese, then toss to coat. Season with pepper.

Quality hair care keeps fall colors looking great.
After a long summer of caring for your hair and making it look perfect on a daily basis, it can be easy to neglect it when autumn rolls around. However, it's important to give your hair just as much care during the autumn months. As we begin making the transition to autumn, there are a few things you can do now to make sure your hair doesn't go into shock when the cooler temperatures set in.
Knowing how your hair reacts to changes in climate will help you make an easy transition from summer to fall. Your climate may be hot and humid in the summer, but cool and dry in the fall. Don't try to fight your hair and make it do something it simply can't do. Sometimes even the highest quality hair care products can't make your hair look as good as it does naturally.
A great sulfate free shampoo is a necessity.
You may have gone with a lighter color for summer or it may have lightened on its own, depending on how much time you spent outside. Autumn is generally the season for darker colors. To make sure the color stays, don't wash your hair as much. You may even benefit from finding a great sulfate free shampoo to help protect your natural hair color and keep the protein and moisture levels high in your hair. This will ensure a darker color will look even better!
During the summer, you may have sprayed sunscreen on yourself when you went to the beach or other places. That could lead to build-up in the roots of your hair as you move into autumn. The best thing you can do to start the new season off right is to invest in a clarifying shampoo. It will help restore any damage and detoxify your scalp. Be sure to only use it once every couple weeks since it is potent and could cause irritation or even change your hair color.
At RemySoft, we have all the great hair care products for kicking off autumn on the right track. Be sure to contact us for the latest trends and more tips like these!


Bible Lesson: If the Old Testament had a super hero it would be Samson. But Samson's strength came from the Lord, not his suit, or a specially evolved ability, or something from another planet. Samson may not have had the greatest character, but God used him to help His people. Samson still stands as a reminder for children that God can give us the strength we need to accomplish His purposes. This free, printable dot to dot puzzle will help children learn this important truth.

I want to take this opportunity to reflect on the past year with gratitude. Since the beginning, our work has only been possible because of your passion and faithful commitment. I am humbled by your willingness to act, and energized for everything we'll be doing in the year ahead. Together, we will put the brakes on deforestation in Napa County, protecting water supply, wildlife, climate.
Today, our mission of passing an initiative has taken a turn. As many of you know, the Board of Supervisors adopted its new Strategic Plan at their last meeting. Because of our efforts, and the prospect of a new initiative in 2020, the Board has scheduled a study session on strategic action related to strengthening watershed protections.
What can we do? Come to the study session scheduled for 9am Tuesday, January 29, at the regularly scheduled BOS meeting. This is a big deal. Staff recommendations fall far short of the protections we need. Let's throw our support behind the BOS as we ask them to take bold leadership that goes beyond the approval of half-way measures. Tell them it's time to stand for our watersheds and forests. In the new abnormal, delay tactics and incrementalism won't cut it for the kids.
Staff recommends 60% canopy cover retention. Our position remains 90%.
Staff recommends minimum 2:1 mitigation for tree removal. Our position remains 3:1 minimum.
When it comes to a vibrant, regenerative, resilient watershed, we get to pick our enchantment. Do we value our natural heritage for more than just money? What are the County's values? What are ours? Let's make a difference Tuesday.

FYI: Is It Possible To Control Our Dreams?
By Kaitlin Miller
Spaceship!
Ollie Bland
Yes, but only with practice. The best place to start is right before bed. Deirdre Barrett, a professor of psychology at Harvard University and author of The Committee of Sleep, asked 76 college students to choose a problem (where to take a vacation; how to arrange their furniture) and focus on it while falling asleep. The subjects recorded their dreams for a week, and graduate students reviewed the material and found that a third of the students successfully solved the problem in their dreams. One student was trying to decide whether to go to graduate school in Massachusetts or California. He dreamed he was flying in a plane that was having engine trouble when he suggested that the pilot try to land in Massachusetts. The pilot said it was better to head toward the bright light in the West.
Imagery rehearsal therapy, or IRT, is a more active, daytime method of dream influence that psychologists use to help trauma victims prevent recurring nightmares. (Nightmares affect some three million people in the U.S. who suffer from post-traumatic stress.) Participants write out a happy version of the nightmare—in place of a fanged monster, a puppy; instead of a dark alley, a sunny street—and visualize it for 15 minutes a day. A group of patients in the VA San Diego Healthcare System who completed a course in IRT therapy experienced 33 percent fewer nightmares after five weeks.
During a lucid dream, it's possible to act rather than simply react, explains Jane Gackenbach, a professor of psychology at Grant MacEwan University in Alberta and the author of Play Reality. About 58 percent of people have experienced a lucid dream at least once, she says. Gackenbach has investigated military videogames as a way to help soldiers cope with combat-related nightmares. "In their military dreams, soldiers who rarely played videogames couldn't pull the trigger," she says. "They were helpless in the face of danger." But gamers could hide behind a boulder and shoot and fight back.
Dream control is inexact, though. As Robert Waggoner, the author of Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self, puts it: "The sailor does not control the sea, and neither does the lucid dreamer control the dream." Gackenbach, too, has found that her subconscious has a way of fighting back: "I was sitting on a bench in Central Park, and I knew I was dreaming. A beautiful woman in a white hat was walking by. I decided to try to change her hat into a monster, but I couldn't. Instead, she changed into a wolf and bit me."

Grease a 8 x 8 square baking pan well. Add the cookie crumbs to a bowl. Melt the butter and stir it into the crumbles until everything is wet. Press the shortbread mixture into the pan in an even layer. Refrigerate until firm.
NOTE: If your caramel won't thicken, you can either put it back on high heat and it should caramelize pretty quickly OR use condensed milk from the beginning, if you're used to making caramel like that!

Do you have a product idea or business problem that you need to solve?
Would you like to invest in new, more complex solutions with less risk?
When it comes to staying ahead of the competition it is absolutely vital to be able to bring new products and services to market quickly and efficiently. If you can't, someone else will.
When you're grappling with bringing a new concept, product or service to market it can seem that you have a mountain to climb and progress can feel slow. A product design sprint is the perfect way to move forward with an idea or concept. It will help your team to truly promote innovation. Within one week you can have the data, analysis and prototypes you need to help you make an informed decision about the next steps for your project.
For an established in-house team, engaging with IJYI brings fresh perspectives and the opportunity for truly original thinking, leveraging our experience from a range of industries and approaches. At the end of the five day product design sprint you will have a working prototype with real-life customer feedback to take to internal stakeholders and investment committees.
Working with IJYI brings experience and expertise to your team, laying the foundations for start-ups and new product teams to build and launch their first solution with limited resources and budget. The five day product design sprint will enable you to go to potential investors or internal stakeholders with a working prototype. You will have all of the data, analysis and customer feedback to justify your offering and generate real enthusiasm from potential investors.
On day one we "start at the end". We imagine the perfect future where this idea achieved all you wanted it to, but we also imagine how and why it may have failed. This helps set a long-term goal and a set of key questions to answer during the sprint.
On day two we will review everything that we've learned on day one and start to come up with ideas using industry and best practice examples for inspiration. Everything from the good, the crazy to the ultimate wish-list should be discussed.
The top ideas are chosen by the team and turned into sketches using a four-step process including Crazy 8s. With a Crazy 8, each idea is taken and eight variations of that idea are created to explore the potential of the idea even further.
From this, we will work together to pull out the best ideas and form them into storyboards. Your meeting room walls will turn into a gallery of ideas.
This is when you start to make some big decisions to take the idea forward. A facilitator will run through each storyboard and, using sticky dots, the team marks up all of the ideas from across all the storyboards. From this, you have a "heatmap" which will allow you to pull the best bits from each idea.
The designated decision maker decides on which elements should be taken forward to prototyping. A final storyboard will be created showing exactly what will go into your prototype.
We love day four, it's really exciting. On day four you'll get to see all of your hard work put into an actual prototype. The IJYI software delivery team will pull together all of the information and ideas from the last few days and build a mock-up which allows the key questions to be answered during Friday's interviews.
A crucial day. Now it's time to show your prototype to some real-life customers or potential customers. The sprint team will watch interviews with customers via web-cam so that they don't influence answers. The key to these interviews is to take the positive, negative and neutral comments and turn them into themes. You can then work through these themes to further tweak and refine your solution. Feedback from real-life users is absolutely key to ensure that you are solving the right problems in the best way.
From here, you have an excellent piece of proven work to take to internal stakeholders and agree next steps for your project.


I freaking love you guys so much. I'm so grateful that you visit Wonderland – daily, weekly, accidentally (welcome), or occasionally. I love it here so much and that is because of YOU.
A few weeks ago I set a goal with my friend to get my Facebook fan page to one-thousand 'likes' by December. It's a place where I share positive messages, real-time musings, Instagram photos, podcasts, recipes, and posts that inspire me in the moment. It is truly a fun place to hang, so from a very genuine place I wanted everyone who visited Wonderland to also connect with me there, because if you like it here you'll love it there! When I set this intention and tossed this Moby song quote on my vision board I was literally blown away at how the Universe showed up and supported this intention I set for myself.
While we've not quite there yet (two-more days) I'm super close & that's because of YOU. My community, peers, mentors, & friends rallied around me, supported me, and helped me to get so close to this goal that I can taste it and I know I will be there by December now.
I tell you this story as a example of the power of asking. When you put out in the world what you desire, believe you are worth it,and manifest it, you literally can call it in and that's what I'm doing. It was just the example I needed to prove this stuff really works. If you want more proof check out this blog post of Kris Carr's & this book that is full of experiments that you can try yourself to prove the law of attraction.
