Among the tributes, critiques and personal reminsces on the life of former US president George H.W. Bush, there has been plenty of reflection on his war record – but less on how he handled himself during the early skirmishes of the climate battle.
It is time to stop waffling so much and say that the evidence is pretty strong that the greenhouse effect is here.
By then, Bush's presidential run was gaining steam. After eight years as vice-president to Ronald Reagan, he wanted the top job, and in Michael Dukakis he faced a Democrat opponent with relatively strong environmental credentials.
Those who think we are powerless to do anything about the 'greenhouse effect' are forgetting about the 'White House effect'. In my first year in office, I will convene a global conference on the environment at the White House. It will include the Soviets, the Chinese… The agenda will be clear. We will talk about global warming.
Bush won the election, and hosted his promised summit in April 1990. But he fudged his promise for a clear and open discussion of global warming.
In May 1989, Al Gore, who had unsuccessfully sought the Democratic presidential nomination the previous year, accused the president of seeking to dodge the climate issue, after it emerged that the Bush Administration had censored Hansen's Congressional testimony, altering his conclusions about global warming data to make them seem less certain.
Meanwhile, climate deniers were becoming increasingly active, including in the Bush White House. A coal industry-sponsored documentary titled The Greening of Planet Earth began circulating, while Bush's chief of staff John Sununu became a vocal roadblock to climate policy, throwing up bureaucratic obstacles and winning Cabinet battles against those who wanted a stronger policy. Bush himself reportedly had no strong interest in global warming and was largely briefed on it by non-scientists.
Yet the world pressed on with the climate issue, setting the June 1992 Rio Earth Summit as the deadline for completing a new United Nations treaty that would formalise the global negotiation process. The US administration said that Bush – up for re-election in November – would refuse to attend if the treaty text included targets and timetables for emissions reductions. Bush's words were: "The American way of life is not up for negotiations. Period." It's a sentiment we're still used to hearing from many of today's politicians.
The major dilemma facing international negotiators was whether to accommodate the United States and have a weak treaty, or push ahead without them. The fate of the Convention on the Law of the Sea – which languished for almost a decade without ratification because of US opposition – pushed them towards compromise. It took a British initiative – with UK Environment Secretary Michael Howard flying to the US to convince the Americans they could sign on – before Bush would agree to attend.
…detached, uninterested, and as his brief remarks in the April meeting showed, responsive only to the politics of a complex issue. He never sat for a full-dress scientific briefing on it or exercised control over administration policy, even after infighting among administration officials became public, or leaders of other industrialised nations pledged action.
The Rio deal – the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change – was quickly signed and ratified by enough countries, including the US, to become international law. The first annual summit was held in Berlin in 1995, and negotiators are currently gathered in Katowice, Poland, for the 24th round of talks. Along the way, the negotiations have delivered the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement.
But the key battle, which has never been won, was for the implementation of binding targets and timetables for countries, especially wealthy ones, to cut their emissions. The inherent weakness of Paris Agreement, which does not contain binding targets and is not currently on track to meet its stated goals, is the result of compromises made decades ago.
Bush's son, George W. Bush, had a far worse record on climate action during his own presidency. But Bush senior was in the White House during the formative years of the international climate effort. He had the chance to be a genuine leader, had he seized it. But when we needed decisive, brave and far-sighted leadership, instead we got the same backing-in of corporate interests, and nearsighted defence of the status quo, that we have grown so used to seeing from political leaders.
There is of course plenty of blame to go around for our species' failure to address climate change. One of Bush's oldest friends, who served as secretary of state, James Baker, has tried to get Republicans on board with climate action, including with the recent Baker-Shulz carbon dividend plan. But many high-profile Republicans, the current president included, still wear their climate recalcitrance as a badge of honour.
We are living with the consequences today. And the children who went on strike last Friday, fighting a battle they should not have had to join, will live with them for the rest of their lives.

In the absence of a clear and compelling value proposition for a customer, planners will often struggle to obtain buy-in from prospective new clients.
We name what seems to be an expensive fee, and in return we try to convince them of how magical – or predictable – our process is, and promise that we will also love them forever more if they do indeed become a client. We then wonder why we meet price resistance.
In my previous post I discussed one way of remedying that: we must position what we do in such a way that it is immediately understandable, and desirable. If we get that right the value becomes immediately apparent to the client, and as a consequence there is no significant price resistance. Who regrets getting good value?
Some planners and advisers do however believe so strongly in the proprietary process, or the comprehensive planning service that they see it IS the value for clients. Of course, they may well be quite right. However, describing a process which is essentially technical in nature and somewhat mysterious to the average consumer, and then asking the consumer to "trust the process enough to pay for it in advance" is a challenge. The consumers do generally feel that they are paying in advance, even if our invoice is not presented until after they have received the plan, because the plan itself has not proven its worth until they have followed the recommendations and allowed the requisite time to pass to see the results.
If one is wedded to the process and wishes to make that the core of the value proposition and simultaneously minimise price resistance, then an excellent strategy is to break it down and sell the components. Don't sell the entire comprehensive planning process at one relatively large fee. Sell it in instalments at modest and affordable feels.
To illustrate let's use just a couple of examples of the very front end of Financial Planning….the most boring (yet potentially most important) parts for most consumers: cash management and debt management.
"Show Me The Money"service: for a flat fee of $400 (for example) we can figure out how to find spare money from your household income, to help fund the holiday you want or buy the next toy…or whatever drives you.
This is just a couple of quick and easy examples to make the point: We are usually dealing with people who have a particular hunger now, and they want it fixed quickly and easily. They want to grab something from the drive-through window at a fast food joint, and we talk to them about a 7 course degustation dinner which we promise will be a life-changing experience for them. They want fast food and we are often talking about fine dining. The result? We struggle to get engagement.
Break the skills and services down into digestible chunks for them, and put it in language which links the service to the outcome that you help them achieve.
You won't find any serious price resistance then.


Jacob, Nina 2008. Understanding suicide: Conversations with the bereaved. PhD Thesis, Cardiff University.
This thesis presents a sociological inquiry into the meanings that families bereaved by suicide attach to the suicide of a young man. Through in-depth interviews and an email based focus group, this study explores families' attempts to understand how and why their loved one chose to end his life. Whilst interviews and focus group discussions were centred on the life and death of the young man, it became clear that the narratives of the bereaved were as much tales of themselves as they were tales of the deceased. The narratives of the life and death of the young man are only ever reconstructions from the relative's perspective. Therefore the research developed a broadly dual focus. It begins by exploring the families' constructions of the young man's life and death before moving on to look the experiences of the bereaved and their (reconstructions of themselves and their families. A social constructionist approach was adopted in order to explore the most significant discourses in helping families make sense of their loved one's death. This thesis shows how the discourse of mechcal-psychiatry was especially salient in their attempts to reach an understanding of their young man's suicide. In particular, families either resisted, or appealed to its dominant construction of suicide as showing signs of mental illness. In addition, the meanings and understandings attached to the young man's death were highly sophisticated attempts to negotiate blame to establish who was responsible for their loved one's death. Importantly whether families appealed to or resisted the dominant medical-psychiatric discourse - the salient point in all the families' constructions was the need to place responsibility outside the family. Moreover, suicide is a devastating death, often leaving families feeling isolated and stigmatised. As such, this thesis also chronicles the families' experiences of being bereaved by suicide their attempts to manage such a profound disruption in their own lives.

"Protecting and promoting the rights of indigenous people benefits us all"
These were Ban Ki-moon's words at the opening of the annual meeting of the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNPFII) in New York, 16th May 2011.
Krystyna Swiderska
He gave the example of indigenous peoples in Peru who are responding to climate change by reintroducing native potato varieties and so are "helping to conserve the earth's biodiversity". "Indigenous peoples have been living a 'green economy' for centuries," he added — economists should look to old practices in indigenous communities for new ways to achieve sustainable development.
Research by IIED and partners shows that indigenous peoples sustain an enormous diversity of traditional crop varieties, practices and knowledge, and that these play an important part in building resilience to climate change. Genetic diversity makes it possible to select desirable traits for adaptation. So the value of diversity increases as variability and uncertainty grows because it reduces risk. In the example of the Peruvian Potato Park cited by Ban Ki-moon, indigenous peoples conserve over 1,500 different varieties of potato.
Traditional varieties are also better adapted to cope with more extreme conditions resulting from climate change — such as drought, pests and nutrient shortage. In South West China for example, traditional varieties survived the big spring drought of 2010, while most hybrid varieties did not. Here, combining traditional and scientific knowledge through Participatory Plant Breeding is showing real potential for tackling climate change. Our research also shows that indigenous peoples and their economic systems are good biodiversity managers and are good at preventing poverty.
While governments and indigenous communities met at the UNPFII, we launched a new website to present the findings of our research, which involves research partners and indigenous communities in Peru, Panama, China, India and Kenya. The website explains the vital importance of indigenous knowledge and biocultural systems, and presents tools and methods for strengthening these systems and related rights of indigenous peoples — Traditional Resource Rights.
The good news is that the importance of indigenous knowledge and agricultural practices for adaptation to climate change is increasingly recognised — for example, by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the Convention on Biological Diversity Ad Hoc Technical Group on biodiversity and climate change.
Yet, as Ban Ki-moon went on to say, "one indigenous language dies every two weeks". UNESCO estimates that up to 90% of all languages — a proxy for traditional knowledge — will be extinct or threatened by the end of this century.
Indigenous peoples face many disincentives to sustain their knowledge and biodiversity. For example, agriculture policies and subsidies promote modern agriculture that replaces diversity with monocultures. Insecure land and resource rights deter indigenous peoples from investing in sustainable resource management and continuing traditional occupations. And growing poverty and inequality force people to find work off-farm. As Ban Ki-moon said "millions of indigenous peoples continue to lose their lands, their rights and their resources". Indigenous peoples make up a third of the rural poor and have higher mortality and child mortality rates than any other group.
The UN Declaration on Indigenous Peoples' Rights has finally got the consensus it deserves, but their rights are still far from recognised at national and local levels. The World Bank only recognises indigenous peoples' rights to Free, Prior and Informed Consultation rather than Free, Prior and Informed Consent. This means that indigenous peoples cannot say no to developments proposed on their land. It seems that many decision makers do not believe that 'protecting indigenous peoples' rights benefits us all' — the only thing believed to benefit us all is profit.

About beer
Research shows: Czechs drink more beer during big sports events
8.6.2006 Uncategorized
During big sports eventssuch as the beginning World Football Championship, the short-term consumption of beer often increases in the Czech Republic. This fact results from marketing research that is regularly carried out by the leading domestic brewing company Plzensky Prazdroj. In the long term monitored statistics showed an increase in average consumption of several thousand hectolitres per week, which enables the domestic breweries to increase their weekly output approximately by 2 percent.
According to the long term statistics* carried out by Plzensky Prazdroj, the average weekly consumption of beer in the Czech Republic increases roughly by 5500 hectolitres during most big sports feasts, such as the Olympic games or international football or hockey championships.
According to the statistics of Czech Beer and Malt Association, the total output of domestic breweries reached 19 million hectolitres in 2005. Almost 16 million hectolitres were produced for the Czech market, with an average production of 300 000 hectolitres per week. The average weekly increase in consumption during outstanding sports feast can bring an almost 2% increase in domestic output of beer.
During this year's football championship, that will last four weeks, the Czech breweries have a chance to produce and sell extra tens of thousands of hectolitres.
* figures of Plzensky Prazdroj in terms of research concerning consumers' behaviour that has been carried out regularly since 2002

Cerebellum May Be at the Root of Autism
Researchers studying autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are hunting for clues to determine its cause. Autism has traditionally been considered a problem of the cerebral cortex—the part of the brain that influences language use and social interaction. However, recent research suggests the cerebellum may play a primary role in ASD. As more research examines the cerebellum's functions, it seems increasingly likely that it may be the key to understanding autism. An editorial from the Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative reviewed findings from four studies that implicate the cerebellum as the prime mover in the autistic brain.
The first study involved abnormalities related to a chromosomal region in the brain, the deletion of which causes Phelan-McDermind syndrome, a disorder characterized by developmental delay and language impairments. The set of genes are also related to autism. Researchers analyzed brain images of ten individuals who had the particular genes deleted. Eight of the group had a smaller-than-normal vermis, which connects the halves of the cerebellum, and an enlarged cavity for the cerebellum. These abnormalities have also been observed in people with autism.
Another study assessed over 3,000 mouse genes, finding two 'cliques' of genes, many of which may be related to autism. Both of these gene groups were located in the cerebellum. The researchers had anticipated that the majority of autism candidate genes would be in the cerebral cortex, rather than the cerebellum.
A third study noted the relationship between Purkinje cells (long, branching neurons found in the cerebellum) and autistic brains. Brains of people with ASD have fewer Purkinje cells than normal. Additional research demonstrated that mice lacking a particular gene that causes Purkinje degeneration exhibit autism-like behavior.
Finally, another mice-based study focused on how dopamine is released when the brain lacks Purkinje cells. The researchers studied dopamine pathways in mice that had lost all of their Purkinje cells. The mice's brains were stimulated to cause a release of dopamine. The mice without Purkinje cells had a lower dopamine release in the prefrontal cortex than the controls.
Some researchers are developing the idea that the cerebellum may be at the root of autism. "Cerebellar dysfunction may be contributing to impaired coordination of social actions in parallel to the ways it contributes to impaired coordination of motor actions," stated Stewart Mostofsky, director of the Laboratory for Neurocognitive and Imaging Research at Baltimore's Kennedy Krieger Institute.

Gold's origin in the Universe has finally been confirmed, after a gravitational wave source was seen and heard for the first time ever by an international collaboration of researchers, with astronomers at the University of Warwick playing a leading role.
Members of Warwick's Astronomy and Astrophysics Group, Professor Andrew Levan, Dr Joe Lyman, Dr Sam Oates and Dr Danny Steeghs, led observations which captured the light of two colliding neutron stars, shortly after being detected through gravitational waves - perhaps the most eagerly anticipated phenomenon in modern astronomy.
Huge amounts of gold, platinum, uranium and other heavy elements were created in the collision of these compact stellar remnants, and were pumped out into the universe - unlocking the mystery of how gold on wedding rings and jewellery is originally formed.
The collision produced as much gold as the mass of the Earth.
The neutron stars were very dense - as heavy as our Sun yet only 10 kilometres across - and they collided with each other 130 million years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, in a relatively old galaxy that was no longer forming many stars.
They drew towards each other over millions of light years, and revolved around each other increasingly quickly as they got closer - eventually spinning around each other five hundred times per second.
Their merging sent ripples through the fabric of space and time - and these ripples are the elusive gravitational waves spotted by the astronomers.
The gravitational waves were detected by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (Adv-LIGO) on 17 August this year, with a short duration gamma-ray burst detected by the Fermi satellite just two seconds later.
Professor Levan's team was the first one to get observations of this new source with the Hubble Space Telescope. It comes from a galaxy called NGC 4993, 130 million light years away.
Andrew Levan, Professor in the Astronomy & Astrophysics group at the University of Warwick, commented: "Once we saw the data, we realised we had caught a new kind of astrophysical object. This ushers in the era of multi-messenger astronomy, it is like being able to see and hear for the first time."
He commented: "The exquisite observations obtained in a few days showed we were observing a kilonova, an object whose light is powered by extreme nuclear reactions. This tells us that the heavy elements, like the gold or platinum in jewellery are the cinders, forged in the billion degree remnants of a merging neutron star."
Dr Samantha Oates added: "This discovery has answered three questions that astronomers have been puzzling for decades: what happens when neutron stars merge? What causes the short duration gamma-ray bursts? Where are the heavy elements, like gold, made? In the space of about a week all three of these mysteries were solved."
Dr Danny Steeghs said: "This is a new chapter in astrophysics. We hope that in the next few years we will detect many more events like this. Indeed, in Warwick we have just finished building a telescope designed to do just this job, and we expect it to pinpoint these sources in this new era of multi-messenger astronomy".

Q: Homomorphism $\mathbb{Z}^2 \to \mathbb{Z}^2$ and g.c.d.
Let $f: \mathbb{Z}^2 \to \mathbb{Z}^2$ be a group homomorphism and
  suppose that $f(a,b) = (c,d)$.
Prove: $\gcd(a,b) \mid \gcd(c,d)$.
  Prove: $\gcd(a,b) = \gcd(c,d)$ if $f$ is an automorphism.

I am seeking for some hint to start this problem. Although I generally have no trouble with group theoretic notions, the smallest introduction of number theory confuses me terribly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

A: We have $\gcd(a,b)|c$ and $\gcd(a,b)|d$ because
$$(c,d)=f(a,b)=\gcd(a,b)\cdot f\left(\frac a{\gcd(a,b)},\frac b{\gcd(a,b)}\right)$$
For an automorphism, there is an invers $g$ such that $g(c,d)=(a,b)$, hence you have both $\gcd(a,b)|\gcd(c,d)$ and $\gcd(c,d)|\gcd(a,b)$. Since both gcds are positive integers, equality follows.

A: Hint: Let $m = gcd(a,b)$. Then $a = me, b = mg$ for some $e , g \in \mathbb{Z}$. Since $f$ is a group homomorphism, we have $(c,d) = f(a,b) = f(m(e,g)) = mf(e,g) = m(h,j) = (mh,mj)$, where $f(e,g) = (h,j)$. Thus, $m|c,d$. What can you conclude from this?
Also, for the automorphism case, using $f^{-1}$ and applying the previous case again, you get $gcd(c,d) | gcd(a,b)$. Since $gcd(c,d), gcd(a,b)$ are both non-negative, what can you conclude?

Last night saw a late showing of Crooked Dice Miniatures goodness with the members of the Big Dirty Wargamers at Wayland Games in Hockley!
7TV is set in the world of '70's and '80's Saturday night TV and film, and features suave spies, deadly fem-bots, plucky assistants and hordes of quasi-futuristic clad henchmen!
Suave Adventurer 'Gentleman' George squares off against insidious robot saboteurs!
This friday night saw the Heroic Action Cast of 'Gentleman' George – Secret Agent, squaring off against the machinations of the Evil Science Cast of Doctor Hole and his cyborg minions.
The game is a cornucopia of gadgets, television tropes, moustaches, femme fatales and henchmen – and really allows for quick and fun narrative games. Both players begin the game by constructing a 'Countdown Deck' of event cards, one or more of which are flipped at the start of each players turn – players may choose to flip one or two cards, which cause more television tropes to come into effect, as well as raising the 'star-qualities' of your models… but also speeds the end of the game, giving players less time to achieve their objectives.
'Gentleman' George's soulmate and faithful sidekick Barb Barker crushes a Robo-Minion underfoot, before setting off to steal the secret plans from the Fem-Bot!
Combat is fast and punchy, with a simple D6 adding to skill opposed test, through which tension can be escalated through the use of the star activation points that players garner throughout the game.
'Gentleman' George wounded… but victorious against the Fem-bot and the Robo-Minion – Dr. Hole will be the next to feel his righteous fist!
Only at the end of the evening did we realise that Gary and Robert had been playing 7TV at Wayland as well – a mere 10 feet away from us!
Close of day revealed another treat for us – as we were not the only 7TV game going on at Wayland on Friday! Gary and Director Robert had been a scant few tables away pitching Blake's 7 against the merciless might of the Federation!

Behind Enemy Lines: Hurricane Warning
Getting to know the Miami Hurricanes
Behind Enemy Lines: Hurricane Warning Getting to know the Miami Hurricanes Check out this story on fsunews.com: http://fsune.ws/1RuiDFS
Staff Writer Published 5:17 p.m. ET Oct. 7, 2015
Miami hasn't beaten Florida State since 2010, a 38-34 victory in Tallahassee.(Photo: Aaron Doster/USA TODAY Sports)
We sat down with Mark Singer of The Miami Hurricane, the student newspaper of the University of Miami. Here's what he had to say about Miami's showdown with Florida State:
HS: After the upset loss to Cincinnati, Al Golden stressed that the 'Canes had "a really good plan" but "didn't execute it well enough...certainly not early on." That said, in Miami's three victories the Hurricanes are averaging just over 41 points a game. What changes are the 'Canes looking at making in practice this week in an effort to get the offense going early and often Saturday night?
MS: Coach Al Golden said after practice on Tuesday there will be changes in Miami's lineup and play calling on Saturday, although he didn't get too into specifics. Backup offensive linemen Kc McDermott and Joe Brown will see some action after not playing last week against Cincinnati. Miami's offensive line committed multiple penalties and allowed a sack when the Bearcats only rushed three, so that unit has to play better if the team is going to have any chance against Florida State.
This should also be the game where Miami gives running back Joseph Yearby the carries his play has warranted this season. The former teammate of Dalvin Cook at Miami Central High School is averaging 7.3 yards per attempt and was one of the few bright spots in the loss to Cincinnati with 113 rushing yards on 17 carries. Yearby only has 58 carries on the season and backup Mark Walton has struggled recently, averaging just 2.8 yards per carry over his last three outings.
HS: Miami ranks 127th of 128 team in college football on third down conversions. On the other side of the ball, Florida State ranks in the top 25 nationally in third down conversion percentage allowed. In your mind where will the Hurricanes have to make the most adjustments in order to avoid punting the ball away that often on third downs?
MS: The troubles on third down stretch back to last season when the team finished 95th out of 128 teams in third down conversion rate. Golden and offensive coordinator James Coley have been asked all season what the problem is and they say the team is working on it, but there hasn't been any progress through four games. The Hurricanes were four of 15 on third down conversions last Thursday against a bad Cincinnati defense. Golden said that poor performance was the result of having nine plays that were third-and-six or more.
I would like to see Brad Kaaya throw the ball more on first down to give the team more manageable situations on second and third. Kaaya lit up Nebraska's secondary on first down throws for 207 yards and a touchdown on 12 of 18 passing. With the return of Berrios, Kaaya has a reliable receiver to throw to in the slot for short yardage. If Kaaya can't find an open receiver, checking down to Yearby and letting him break up the field is a fine outcome.
HS: FSU's Dalvin Cook is still day-to-day with a hamstring injury. He is obviously a critical part of FSU's offensive attack. How has Miami prepared this week? Has UM developed two different plans to prepare for an offense with and without the star halfback?
MS: Defensive coordinator Mark D'Onofrio said the team is preparing as if Cook will play on Saturday. Miami is 87th out of 128 teams in the country in rushing yards allowed per attempt, so stopping Cook will be a challenge even if he's not 100 percent healthy. Tackling has been an issue for the Canes all year. The team struggled to bring down Cincinnati's Hosey Williams and Florida Atlantic's Jay Warren in particular, and Cook is in a different class compared to those two running backs. Starting linebacker Jermaine Grace is questionable for Saturday's game after he hurt his shoulder against Nebraska and then injured his ankle versus Cincinnati. If he can't go, Cook will run all over the Hurricanes.
If Cook can't play on Saturday, then the safeties will be able to stay deep and keep Florida State's receivers from getting behind the defense. Cincinnati completed a 52-yard pass in the fourth quarter last week after safety Dallas Crawford was caught out of position expecting a run. Crawford is expected to be one of the starters that sees less playing time against Florida State. Either Jamal Carter or Rayshawn Jenkins will fill his place in the lineup. Carter is a strong tackler and Jenkins roams the field well, so Cook's status will likely determine which of them gets the start.
HS: Finally, give me a score prediction for Saturday night's showdown.
MS: Even if Cook doesn't play, I like the Seminoles to beat the Hurricanes for the sixth consecutive season.
Final score: Florida State 34, Miami 24.

The other day I posted a status update which wasn't quite in line with my typical word sharing. It's one I wondered about later. I wondered if it was wise or foolish, brave or stupid, and if I should have left alone the current hot topic of the day altogether. In the end, it wasn't really a fit for my overall online presence but God used it to bring about something beautiful. For that I am truly grateful.
There are appropriate times for silence as well as times for a resounding voice. Knowing when to use which requires wisdom and discernment. The source of which is God.
My hope and prayer for all of us who call ourselves followers of Christ is that we will actually follow Christ. That we will learn to recognize His voice and faithfully run a race which honors Him.
I also recognize that how we do this varies, not because God varies but because our understanding is limited and rooted in so many factors, like personal experiences, strengths, weaknesses, spiritual growth, emotional growth, communication styles, fear, freedom and I could go on.
We all miss something about the way God works and who He is because we are finite and he is infinite. God is vast, beyond measure and no number of books, words, or video could ever explain Him fully.
Then, in our future home, we will know. Perhaps we will all realize how little we know now.
No matter what we think we know.
When I posted my status, I realized that it, in and of itself, it was unnecessary and not helpful for the overall vision I have with my presence on social media. In addition, I do not wish to engage in division among Christians. I do not wish to engage in verbal volleyball which becomes increasingly fierce and rarely concludes with any one winning.
I do, however, wish to write with passionate, bold humility about the things of Christ which I have come to know and which cause me to fall more in love with Him and experience greater freedom in Him.
Later, I posted a follow up status. Partially, I wrote to clarify why I stated what I did previously, but more importantly, I wrote a plea asking us all to remember that we are first and foremost called to love Christ. We are called to love others as we love Christ. In doing so, we must remember that we are all created in the image of Christ and we are all broken reflections of that image.
We need Christ's work in our hearts. When we seek transformation personally we become a more beautiful reflection to the world collectively.
Pointing the fingers at each other and making snarky, snide, prideful comments in no way brings glory to Christ, no matter which side of an issue we stand on.
Some of us can and should speak our view points on hot topic issues. Some of us should refrain.
All of us can, and should, explore hard conversations lovingly in relationship with others. Not because we need to pursue the acceptance of our points, but because we pursue God who has accepted us. Therefore, we also pursue others.
We do so while recognizing we don't have all the answers and neither do they. There is one source of truth – God.
We need the powerful love of the Father, the crazy redemptive sacrifice of the Son and the unbelievable powerful empowerment of the Holy Spirit. Daily. Minute by minute.
With this in mind, we can still misunderstand aspects of God's Word while His truth remains unchangeable and His love steadfast forever. We must keep this in mind as we have conversations with one another in the love of Christ.
Humility – recognizing who we are as a broken, flawed, human beings whose best attempts at righteousness are like filth to God.
Boldness – recognizing who we are as a righteous, redeemed, creations of God, seen by the Father through the sacrifice of the Son.
Bold humility seems contrary doesn't it? Yet, that's how God is. His ways are mysterious, but they work and they are best.
God delights in His creation. He calls us all into the state of knowing our brokenness and resting in His righteousness.
Regardless of personal views on the numerous hot topic causing division today, let's remember we are all creations of our Creator. We are all flawed and beautiful at the same time.
How about we bear this in mind when we get all riled up because someone doesn't believe as we do? When we don't get our way, or get others to believe our way?
Going forward it is unlikely I'll say much, if anything, on hot topic issues. Not because I'm afraid to talk about it, but because I prefer to talk in person. I prefer to see someone's eyes and to hear them speak from their heart as they see my eyes.
Like when I had the privilege of engage with another after my post. Let me tell you…beauty and brokenness lay bare between both of us and God met us there.
One broken conversation, bound by the love of Christ.


Separable linear orders and universalityJun 01 2016In various places in the literature it is stated that every separable linear order embeds into the real line. This is, however, not the case, at least not with respect to the usual definition of separability. We correct this misconception.

I arrived in Dhaka on the 10th of March and took a domestic flight to Sylhet to visit the devotees for six days.
We have a nice ISKCON temple there - in the middle of the city, situated on a little hill, with gardens and big trees surrounding the temple buildings.
Lord Jagannath, Baladev and Subhadra are the Lords of this establishment, together with Sri Sri Radha Govinda and Gaur Nitai.
Around 50 brahmacaris are serving Them in dedication and devotion, and the preaching is lively with lots of new devotees coming to Krsna consciousness.
The devotees gave me a heartfelt welcome and kept me busy for the next few days.
The first evening we dedicated to chanting in kirtan: I gave a short talk about the deeper secrets of chanting, followed by one of my favorite kirtan tunes. Everybody eagerly participated and absorbed themselves in chanting the holy name.
The next morning I was sceduled to give the Bhagavatam class, and in the afternoon we conducted a program for the temple devotees on important aspects of servicing in puja. So easily the mood of routine and overfamiliarity enters this most confidential service to the Lord....!
The next day was dedicated to the topic of devotee care, which was well received. Devotees would have liked to hear more but unfortunately the time was short.
On the following morning I gave the Bhagavatam class again, followed by a program for the students, and the day concluded with the general Friday evening program, which is the main event of the week.
On Saturday morning I gave a book distribution seminar, and in the afternoon we went out on distribution. Devotees did not want to miss this exciting adventure, and our group going door to door was almost too big. So we divided into two groups and knocked on people's doors within the same block of flats, one starting from the top and one from the bottom.
People were so receptive and happily welcoming our party of devotees. In each and every flat we managed to distribute at least one of Srila Prabhupada's books! And while I was signing the books which we distributed we also had a little kirtan - a perfect way to conclude the loving exchange.
In this part of the world people have a natural respect for sastra and sadhus! It is probably one of the easiest places for distributing Prabhupada's books....!
I also spent time with the student girls - here in Sylhet they are very eager to offer service and inquire. Every day they brought my meals to the temple, which they had cooked in their flat nearby.
On the 17th of March I flew to Chittagong, the yatra which had become my main base in Bangladesh.
Pandit Gadhadara Prabhu, who is in charge of the student preaching in Chittagong arranged a busy scedule for me, with several preaching engagements every single day.
I regularly gave the SB class in the mornings, which always stimulated nice question and answer sessions. And on Ekadasi we had a nice program at lunch, and a long evening kirtan in the temple room.
Chittagong is the only temple in Bangladesh which has a temple room closed in by four walls - all other temples have the traditional Nath Mandir which is open to all sides. Once again I noticed how much better the focus is during the programs when the four walls are there to contain the energy - during japa, during kirtans and during lectures. It makes an immense difference which cannot be under-estimated.
I also spent time with our students who are practicing Krsna consciousness while they are studying at the University. I visited them in their BACE-flat for a morning program, and we also went on harinam together. On Friday evening, when they are all in the temple I conducted a seminar on the topic of balancing our external and internal activities - a very relevant topic which accompanies us throughout our entire life, on every level of spiritual advancement.
One afternoon I conducted a program on book distribution - a most important service which always needs ongoing encouragement and inspiration.
A month ago our ISKCON Minister for Book Distribution Vijay Prabhu visited Chittagong and spent a wonderful time with our devotees! Now we were discussing the idea to establish a regular Book Distribution Department within the temple. So far some devotees had been going out occasionally, and all the various preaching departments are regularly distributing books to their audiences, but nobody had been dedicating their energy to this service full time. Even many initiated devotees do not have a set of Srimad Bhagavatam's in their homes - something which is an absolute must....!
How can we establish our relationship to Srila Prabhupada without reading regularly Srimad Bhagavatam with Prabhupada's so valuable purports....!
Gaur Purnima was a wonderful event! Lord Jagannath looked very festive on this occasion, and the altar was nicely decorated with flower arrangements, and fruits were hanging from the simhasana.
I was requested to give the morning class and spoke on deeper aspects of Mahaprabhu's appearance and His mood of separation - a topic we only discuss in the assembly of practicing devotees.
Around lunch time I gave a more simple class to the visiting congregation centered around Mahaprabhu's appearance and childhood lila's.
In the late afternoon an abhishek was conducted in the large new temple room which is still under construction. The unfinished walls had been covered with coloured cloth, and what will one day be the altar was transformed into a stage where the bathing ceremony was performed. Only the senior temple brahmacaris were conducting the bathing, and being a visiting preacher I was also invited to bathe the Deities. The congregation and visiting devotees were sitting on the covered floor of the temple room to witness the auspicious ceremony, all along chanting in melodious kirtans.
The entire event was very harmoniously performed, and all along I was envisioning the wonderful day when we would be ready to inaugurate this new temple and install Their beautiful Lordships Sri Sri Radha Rasabihari with Lalita and Vishaka, Lord Jagannath and Gaur Nitai.
I was envisioning our most wonderful and advanced kirtaniyas within ISKCON coming here, holding the first Bangladeshi Kirtan Mela.....!
After all the pure chanting of the Holy Name is what impells Krsna to appear.....!
I had formed a good team of enthusiastic boys who were ready to prepare fourty-eight large trays of pizza, under my coordination and supervision.

Keim: Cardinals fans should 'tread lightly' when it comes to trade rumors
Arizona Cardinals Stories
By Kevin Zimmerman | October 12, 2018 at 8:41 am
UPDATED: October 12, 2018 at 10:47 am

Ranging from sourced reports to rumors thrown into the internet machine, three Arizona Cardinals were named as potential trade candidates this week.
Linebackers Deone Bucannon and Haason Reddick have gone in and out of Arizona's starting lineup through five weeks this season, leading to speculation about their future with the Cardinals.
CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora even told Doug & Wolf on 98.7 FM Arizona's Sports Station that, based on what he's heard, it'd be surprising if Bucannon wasn't traded.
Even franchise running back David Johnson came up in a trade rumor. The running back called it "false news" earlier in the week, and Cardinals general manager Steve Keim used his visit with Doug & Wolf Friday to remind fans that these things hardly mean a trade is on deck.
ESPN: Cards should trade Bucannon, 4th-round pick for 7th-rounder
CBS Sports' La Canfora expects Cardinals to trade Deone Bucannon
RB David Johnson is still the foundation of the Cardinals' offense
Cardinals feed off high standards for DE Chandler Jones
"The one part of my job is to have dialog with other teams when it comes to trades and different transactions," Keim said. "Number one, the one thing I won't do is I won't confirm or deny those in public. I will tell you it's a lot of gossip, people enjoy it, it's water cooler talk. A lot of the stuff that you'll read is certainly false.
"I know that on Wednesday I woke up to three different names that were brought to my attention and those conversations never happened. I would say to most fans to tread likely when it comes to trade talks because very rarely are those accurate."
INVOLVING DAVID JOHNSON
There's no doubt that Arizona must do a better job running the ball.
Heading into this week's visit to the Minnesota Vikings, the Cardinals rank last by averaging 64.6 rushing yards per game despite deploying David Johnson. Arizona is second-to-last by averaging 3.3 yards per carry, and Johnson has only compiled 242 rushing yards in five games.
"There were still a lot of things that frustrated myself, frustrated all of us. Have to run the ball more effectively," Keim said of Arizona's win at San Francisco. "And when you watch the tape, the really frustrating part is why certain plays don't work. Really sometimes it comes down to one man."
Johnson carried the ball 18 times for 55 yards (3.1 yards per rush) and two touchdowns while catching two passes for 16 yards.
Asked where to place blame, Keim said it's an across-the-board issue from the scheme, to Johnson making the right reads, to the offensive line opening up holes.
"It's all about playing in unison," the general manager said. "With that, aside from the fact that it needs to be blocked up better, it could be maybe schemed better, it could be David Johnson running with more patience and better eyes. It's all of us."
WRIGHT THE SHIP?
Arizona signed veteran wide receiver Kendall Wright this week, and while it's to-be-seen if he'll make his debut as a Cardinal Sunday at Minnesota, Keim said that his presence was certainly about giving the receiver room a boost.
"Based on the tape that I watched, the guy has caught the football extremely well, he snatches it out of the air, he can go up and get it in a crowd — crafty, savvy route-runner," Keim said. "We need a guy who can catch the football. In my opinion, far too many drops this season."
Wright caught 59 balls for 614 yards and a touchdown in 16 games with the Chicago Bears last season.

Sachse said, "I look forward to working with the team at Citi Trends to capture the exciting opportunities in the value retail space and to ensure that this period of transition is one of forward momentum for the company."
"As we look to the future, we see opportunity to leverage our strong balance sheet and loyal customer base as we innovate with new merchandising, marketing and distribution strategies," Carney said. "Citi Trends is focused on improving its merchandising strategies and execution, expanding its non-apparel offerings, executing its cost cutting initiatives, and exploring new markets, including testing new stores in predominantly Hispanic areas. We are committed to making the changes necessary to thrive and grow to the benefit of our customers, employees and shareholders."

He replaced Jason Mazzola.

Using the wealth of online materials that have become available in the last five years, particularly the Dickens Journals Online in this class, we explored Dickens's legacy as a serial novelist, journalist, and literary magazine editor. The class also focused on Dickens's cultural impact and his shrewd reading of the publication industry, including serialization. Inherently, this

The origins of Celox go back to research carried out in Washington State in the 1980s and 90s where researchers first patented the use of chitosan to stop bleeding. The ethical philanthropist and marine biologist Time Evans acquired rights to this work and put together a research team based in Bainbridge Island to develop the chitosan into a workable prototype of today's Celox technology.
Tragically, Tim was diagnosed with a terminal illness in the early 2000's, at which time he contacted his friend at Medtrade Products in the UK and asked him to review the work to identify one viable and beneficial product that could be brought into medical use. It was clear that that opportunity was the ability stop life-threatening bleeding and Tim's team became Medtrade Biopolymers, continuing to work in Washington and achieved the first FDA approval for Celox granules in June 2006. Medtrade received the first order for Celox in December 2006 and happily Tim survived to hear the news.
