Many people dream of working from home and being their own boss. They long to leave behind the office and set their own schedule. Multi-level marketing companies will tell you that they can make those dreams a reality, and there is truth to this claim with some business opportunities. However, it really falls to you to find a great company and actually put the work into building your own business.
One of the reasons MLM gets a bad reputation is because people sign up and expect the money to just start pouring in. They don't understand that building any business will require hard work on your part. This has been enough for companies like ACN to be erroneously considered scams. Even if the company you're with has an amazing product and stellar support system, you'll still have to hit the pavement, market your brand, network with people, and treat it like a business. Before you make the commitment, ask yourself if you're really prepared to spend several hours every day building your name, reputation and business.
There are several MLM companies out there you can look into joining; Amway may be one of the most recognized MLM businesses out there, but Avon works on the same principals. Arbonne, Mary Kay, Tupperware, and ACN are all examples of legitimate multilevel marketing companies that have grown by helping their representatives succeed. Look at the company's reputation, ratings, and financial stability before deciding if you want to move forward.
Any MLM company will have a phenomenal product with great warranty options. Beware of companies that are pressuring you to sign more people up without any real focus on sales. Keep away from any brand that cannot provide you with a reliable mentor, good training and ongoing support. If you're being pressured to buy more or it simply seems too good to be true, then you should keep looking for another opportunity.
You're going to spend a lot of time talking about the products and services offered through your company, so it should be something you're passionate about. Ask yourself if you want to help women feel more confident, cooks get their space in order, or families save money on the bills they're already paying. When you find something that you can really support and get behind, then you'll be well on your road to success.
Sitting at home and waiting for people to magically call you won't get the phone ringing. You need to schedule time to work on your business. You'll need to actively market yourself as a representative, and that can mean anything from attending networking meetings to writing blog posts and making YouTube videos. Schedule time for calling potential clients, booking meetings with people, networking, and marketing. As you grow the business, you'll also need time to keep up with orders and the books. Do not give in to the temptation to do the laundry or make dinner during those blocks of time. Focus on your business for at least a few hours every day so that you can keep it growing.
Financial freedom could be waiting right around the corner. Many people have turned to MLM as a way to quit the rat race and start their own business. The upfront investments are low, and the rewards can be great. However, you'll still have to pour in your own hard work in order to make the venture successful. If you decide to work from home with this kind of opportunity, then start by working on some goals and creating a solid schedule to help you reach them.

The True American:
According to the by-laws and edicts of today's neoconservative, to truly be patriotic one must be Christian in good standing with an affiliated evangelical church, bow to an hierarchy of male authority, own guns, do not voice one word of protest against a right-wing government or policy whether it be local, state or federal. There's still more…irregardless that most established Americans have an immigrant heritage background, there is no way current immigrants (primarily Latinos or those of other faiths) could bestow allegiance to the U. S. One must separate one's self wholly from ones in need, promote corporate infiltration into government legislation (as corporations have individual rights just as any real person would) and list any social program in a democracy as socialism. The worst case scenario though is to be liberal in thinking. If you are a 'progressive' (the trending term liberals are now going under for some reason), under the neoconservative belief there is no way one can be patriotic to his or her country.
This is nicely made-up and make-believe fairy dust, but it puts the right-wing right into a genuine hypocritical grip. I have heard TV evangelical preachers actually say to his lonely and fixed-income viewing audience that, "Jesus wants you to send your money to me where I can further spread the Gospel." To be Christian simply means to be Christ-like. Unfortunately, today's American mainstream moral majority has drifted from behaving as the one they claim they actually follow. Nowhere, but nowhere, did Jesus say to give to the richest. If he truly reads his Bible that TV preacher should be handing over income to his fixed-income listener, not the other way around. With the multitude of New Testament verses such as Mark 10:25, Matt. 5:3, 6:24 Luke 6:20, 24, 16:13, 18:25 & Rev. 3:14-22, Jesus was not only for the poor, but more intently for the destitute.
Jesus clearly expected the wealthy to be generous to the poor. To him it truly was a grave sin to cloak the eyes with disguised indifference towards the poor or those currently in need. Yet, the moral conservative right is doing exactly that. Today's conservative prevailing mantra is I want to horde the money I work for and definitely do not like even handing a smidgen of it over to someone who's less fortunate.
In their minds, the wealthiest among us should be able to hang onto their wealth with the aid of subsidies, loopholes and tax breaks, while all social programs should be the first to be deleted in paying down the national debt, no matter the time these programs are most needed during this recessive hold on unemployment and lost sense of self-dignity.
Literally, the righteous among us bar the doors to keep the less fortunate as distant from them as possible. To underscore the idea that we are all in this together needs to be further scrutinized. For no matter your monetary standing, we have relied heavily on each other from taxation to charitable donations.
I once played football all my preteen and teen life, even a stint in college into adulthood. The one thing that stuck with me throughout all the experiences of trials and jubilations on the field is that in order for the team to succeed, when one was down and hurt, you had to pick up the slack and get him through his rough time. You did this for you knew he would do exactly the same for you when it becomes your time of having to play with pain along with its disadvantages thwarted your way.
In my simple-mindedness, I view Americans as all on one team, not as separated into political parties. Since the days of Tom Delay, the former Republican House majority leader, where he insisted that Democrats were the enemy of the U.S., Republicans took off on that embellishing its extension to anyone who's liberal in thinking. If Delay truly wanted to confront an enemy of America, someone should have shipped his happy little fanny-perpendicular to the Khyber Pass situated between Afghanistan and Pakistan. There, he could have confronted the real enemy of America and there he could really afford his tail to be jacked between his legs in seeing what a true enemy of America is actually like.
To truly be patriotic it is a civic duty to aid your fellow man when he/she is in time of need.
No longer in a team player analogy, America has become divisive, but why is that? There are many areas to point the finger at, but without a doubt, it is the firm hold that right-wing conservatism has placed on the Republican mantle. No matter how the right will scoff, it is one of the top seeded reasons of divisive concern in this country. It is simply too self-serving…too extreme.
Throwing Dirt:
From the moment Obama won the election, Mitch McConnell, Republican senate minority leader bunched all his Republican senator colleagues into a closed room office, not to discuss ways to get the country out of its worst recession, but how to get Obama out of office through obstructionism.
From that very same moment President elect Obama was celebrating his inauguration, on January 20, 2009 Republicans from the house and senate met in a secret conference to discuss ways not on how to get corporations to employing Americans again, but yet again on how to defeat the new president.
Attendees from the House of Representatives were, Rep. Eric Cantor (VA), Paul Ryan (WI), Pete Hoekstra (MI), Pete Sessions (TX), Jeb Hensarling (TX), Kevin McCarthy (CA) and Dan Lungren (CA). From the senate, Senators attending were, John Ensign (NV), Tom Coburn (OK), Jim DeMint (SC), Jon Kyl (AZ) and Bob Corker (TN).
Outside of holding an office, but deeply entrenched inside the political realm, in attendance also was Frank Luntz, a Republican consultant and strategist. Who would ever know why, but none other than Newt Gingrich was in the meeting too.
The agendas set down from the meeting were one, to go after Tim Geithner, Obama's newly inducted Secretary of the Treasury. Indeed, Kyl immediately did the very next day in constantly harassing Geithner with ill-conceived questions and smug remarks during his confirmation hearings.
Of course, throughout Obama's term we witnessed the other agendas to 'relentlessly jab Obama' and show united and unyielding Republican opposition to Obama policies, in particularly economic policies.
After the meeting, as Newt was leaving he hollered out to reporters, "You'll remember this day. You'll remember this as the day the seeds of 2012 were sown."
During the debt ceiling debates this past August when Republicans nearly let the country default on its loans and payroll, Michelle Bachmann, who at the time was actually running for the office of the presidency, said at a National Press Club speech that she would not vote for raising the debt ceiling where the U.S. could meet its obligations and further ranted on that if indeed the country does default, it is due to the Obama presidency.
It is quite odd that Republicans can blame the Obama administration for not getting us out of a Republican induced recession and financial crisis soon enough, while all along the way of Obama's attempts at seriously pulling the country out of its woes, Republicans are intentionally stonewalling and obstructing the recovery. Then they have the audacity to point out Obama's economic recovery policies aren't working fast enough.
This, at the expense of working together in aiding all Americans and therefore the country, it is in the GOP-DNA ambition to pledge allegiance to a particular party which just so happens to be called Republican. Power and wealth appears to have conjured an annulment to decent diplomacy, compromise and the whole good of the American people.
This rich man private club mentality has leached towards complacency and neglect for the fellow man. That is one main cause for the fall of the American middleclass. It is one of the main divisive strokes.
A farmer in his freshly plowed field picks up a handful of soil and says this is good. He carries that same handful of soil with him into the house then throws it on the kitchen table. His wife then proclaims this is not good. To take anything from this is that political legislation is essential in a democracy, but it is where, what, when and how it is implemented that makes it pertinent or improper. Tax cuts for the rich or relief for the financially burdened middleclass? Throwing soil is not the problem, but its final landing is…good earth or just plain dirt…
Sparkle in Someone Else's Eyes:
To reach out beyond your inner circle and give an uplifting hand to a stranger I must say is less done by us all than it is. It's human nature to place more importance on the ones closer to you than those that aren't. To give up one of your kidneys to a dying close relative most probably would be an instant decision to perform the surgery and organ donation. To give up a kidney to a total stranger or even a distant relative, there would be pause to reflect more on the final decision with "no" most likely being the final outcome. For some, even voluntarily donating an organ to a stranger beforehand after their own untimely death, is frowned upon.
This thought of protecting your own to a great extent is a good thing, for it promotes the familial institution providing us with survival strategies that has maintained us as a species throughout the millennia in family or clan groups. But to a degree, it made us wary of others, even though we were of the same species. We concentrated on the few differences, such as ethnicity, instead of the vast human similarities, thus developing mistrust. From this, we have warred for resources, cultural gain and religious dominance; doing our best to negate diversity within the fold whether unknowingly or knowingly.
America became the great experiment for diversity within mankind to excel instead of being thwarted. The vast melting pot of cultures, societies, ethnicities and religions came together in this grand American experiment with in-placed guarantees of freedom to express the greatest ideas, methods, ways & means to achieve the best in us as a democratic majority. With corrective measures installed by the founding fathers by means of amendments, no one group could overtake another politically, morally or religiously. In the end, we all remained as one.
Ultra-conservatism is taking that founding concept away in America that was bestowed upon us. Today, no one can argue that the center of gravity in the GOP has shifted far to the right. Centrist Republican politicians are losing in primaries such as Senators Robert Bennett (UT) and just this week, Richard Lugar (IN) to more extremist politicians.
The newer elements in the GOP are ideologically extreme, scorns compromise (preferring instead to pursue self-principle) and dismisses any factual content that might arise from scientific evidence or technological understanding. The reasoning for the dismissals...it conflicts with their beliefs. When one group strays this far from the centrist mainstream, it virtually makes it impossible to direct legislation constructively in addressing the country's immediate concerns. Just look at the results of congressional progress in tackling America's ills these past few years. Well you cannot, for there are none unless you count the destructive filibustering and obstructionism that has actually worsened America's standing in not getting things done in congress.
I'm tiring of hearing the over used justification that, "Both sides do it." Since the post McGovern Democrats, the Donkey Party has been more diverse from liberal to blue Democrat ideology. Since Bill Clinton's era many reforms on social programs have actually shrunk these welfare agencies, not expanded them. On the other hand, right leaning programs have proliferated in decreasing financial institution regulations, augmenting corporate subsidies, increasing the defense budget and lowering taxes for the wealthy. Obama himself, whom the right insists is the most socialistic president this country's ever had, has enacted multiple entitlement cuts, proposing even more and has offered tort reform and signed several free trade agreements; all staunch Republican mandates.
When you have one growing group so far out on the limb from the main trunk, the search for legislative common ground becomes untenable.
Since President Obama's election, in unanimous opposition, whether it be on financial stabilization, economic recovery, affordable healthcare or presidential appointments, Republicans in both houses have vehemently opposed every Obama initiative whether they were popular with the populace or not. They even barricaded the nomination of a director to the post of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for reasons in not that they felt he was unqualified. No, it was to prevent him from implementing regulatory laws to the financial system to ensure another financial crisis of the 2008 kind is avoided for future generations to contend with and to enforce regulations that were already in place.
This GOP partisanship even led to America's first credit downgrade last year. Standard & Poor (S&P) announced the downgrade due strictly to the fact of "political brinkmanship." S&P expressed the partisanship debate over the debt on behalf of Republican politicians made the abilities of the U.S. government to manage its finances, "less stable, less effective and less predictable." Of Course Republicans in congress, who are masters at conjuring up woes only to throw the blame on someone else, laid all fault on the credit downgrade squarely on Obama's shoulders because it happened on his watch. It's like a grown kid getting into all sorts of trouble but when caught, blames all his guilty deeds and juvenile delinquent actions on his parents.
Using power to nullify duly enacted laws and to paralyze government in general simply because the sitting president isn't liked by them should be criminal. These elected officials were put into office to uphold legislated laws and do for the greater good, not to hold power grabs and instigate grudge matches.
What sums up best the current GOP mentality is Richard Murdouch's philosophy. Murdouch is the upcoming Republican who has just handily defeated Lugar in the Republican senate primary in Indiana.
After winning in the primary results, he was interviewed this Wednesday (05/08/2012) on Fox & Friends. When asked about his unrelenting partisanship, he said in a serious tone, "I have a mindset that says bipartisanship ought to consist of Democrats coming to the Republican point of view." Mourdouch, if he truly feels that way, is a narrow-minded idiot in running for political office in a representative democracy. That isn't bipartisanship…that's authoritarianism…
The utmost in absurdity can only explain how Republicans are currently functioning in legislation. In early 2009 there were eight Republican co-sponsors of a bipartisan healthcare bill reform plan. By early 2010, all eight Republicans had turned down their own reform bill with GOP fingerprints all over it in amendments simply because they wanted the greatest distance from appearing even remotely receptive to Obama's health reform initiative. One of them, Senator Lamar Alexander (TN) was asked by the Washington Post's, Ezra Klein why did he abandon the reform bill after all the work, effort and taxpayer's dime was put into its completion and his response was, "I liked it because it was bipartisan, (but) I wouldn't have voted for it." Do you find any logic in that? I certainly don't.
Keith Poole of the University of Georgia and Howard Rosenthal of New York University have published results of a decades long evaluation. They meticulously charted ideological shifts and swings in American politics going back to the eighteenth century. In their conclusions, it is the GOP that has swung the most and not only so far to the right, but intransigently so. Today the GOP is more right-winged and polarized than has been recorded in over a century.
The objective statistical methodology that the two scientists incorporated showed an ideological movement for both the main parties, but by far the graph of Republican conservatism has rapidly shifted to more extreme extensions where Democrats have actually reversed the leftist trend and are moving back more towards the centrist neutral zone ever since the late 1980s.
Ronald Reagan got legislation pushed through congress because he had blocks of moderate Democrats to act upon America's behalf and not just solely the party. Obama has had to fight tooth and nail in passing water-downed legislation because he has blocks of conservative Republicans that do not act on behalf of America, but instead devote loyalty to a party.
The Republican Party is evolving and it's changing rapidly from a traditional political entity into a fashioned cult, almost apocalyptic if you will with a very narrow lens to view from in ideology.
How Hard is the Rock:
For many millions of Americans, the damage from the recession runs through some very deep, wide and rapid water. It is vexing enough to keep a head above water, much less swim to safety with family members in tow.
If you are one of those that lost his or her job during this bad fall in the economy, then you understand perfectly well the above statement. Unfortunately, most Republican politicians do not.
Just listen to the current Republican rhetoric. Newt Gingrich this past November said of the Occupy Wall Street movement, "Go get a job after you take a bath," then took an heir fuehrer bow to the applauding Wall Street Republican audience he was addressing. Although it is interesting to note that when Gingrich was a college student, he begged his parents to support him where he wouldn't have to work and later, once he was married, insisted his first wife work in supporting him through graduate school only to divorce her for another woman once he graduated.
At the end of last month, State Attorney General, Robert McKenna, who is running as a Republican for the governorship of Washington, was being tracked down by a young female activist on a downtown sidewalk. She asked him his stance on how he would vote on the Reproductive Parity Act, a bill that would expand insurance coverage for abortions in the state insurance plan as long as the plan covers maternity care as well. Without answering her question and also without hesitation simply replied, "Get a job." Actually she has a job in running youth empowerment programs at the local YMCA.
Just this past Sunday on May 06, the Republican Maine governor, Paul Lepage delivered a rather torrid speech at the Maine Republican Convention when he demanded of the unemployed, "Get off the couch and get yourself a job" If he only knew that it's easier said than done.
All Republicans in the 2010 elections primarily ran on the platform of repealing 'Obamacare' and creating jobs. They won picking up seats in the senate and taking over the majority rule in the house.
As the new speaker, John Boehner claimed the sole goal of Republicans is to create jobs when he proclaimed, "We're going to have a relentless focus on creating jobs."
2010 rolled by with no new bill produced by House Republicans for job creation. 2011 rolls by with no house bill resolutions, much less bill passages for job creation. We're well into 2012, but still with no jobs bill legislated and passed by Republicans.
Oh, they've done their best in attempting to hamper the new healthcare bill's implementation, adding amendments to the bill to gut it and have introduced legislation to repeal it; even calling it unconstitutional.
To give their due, Republicans have passed house bills such as the worst transportation bill that Secretary of Transportation, Ray Lahood, a Republican himself said he's ever seen. His words, "This is the most partisan transportation bill I have ever seen. And it also is the most anti-safety bill I have ever seen. It hollows out our No. 1 priority, which is safety, and frankly, it hollows out the guts of the transportation efforts that we've been about for the last three years." LaHood finally adds "It's the worst transportation bill I've ever seen during 35 years of public service."
They've also argued on how to enhance hunting, fishing and shooting, but no job push. They've voted twice to end Medicare. They've held hearings to cut federal employees benefits, and tried to redefine pizza as a vegetable and exactly how 'aircraft' should be defined.
Heck, Republicans even had the time to propose a bill to keep welfare recipients out of casinos and strip joints and liquor stores and take drug tests. They reaffirmed "In God We Trust" and attempted wholeheartedly to defund NPR, but still couldn't find the time to seriously pass a jobs bill.
Boehner will tearfully well up and tell you that his Republican House has passed 30 something jobs bills. They're 'something' alright, but that something certainly isn't jobs bills. An example is HR 3606 titled as, 'Jumpstart Our Business Startups JOBS Act.' To insiders it's better known as 'Reopening American Capital Markets to Emerging Growth Companies Act' and is exactly that in relating to markets, for it is strictly a financial market tool for deregulation. It has nothing to do with creating jobs except in name only.
There is a certified jobs drought out there, but Republicans tend to think that is not the case, but rather it is the middle class and poorer worker who simply don't want a job for they would rather sit on their cans and collect unemployment.
The GOP always points to the fact that America is experiencing the highest unemployment and food stamp recipient rates the country has ever experienced since the Great Depression and alludes to the fact it is all under Obama's watch.
Well duh! Yes it is and whoever would be president following and inheriting the financial mess brought about by the Bush years, would also have the same spillover from this dire economic situation.
The sheer numbers in no way reflect that Obama has done nothing, he has curbed it, but its magnitude is enormous. With the corporate fad that fully developed during the Bush years of outsourcing, employ lean and mean and lay off as many as possible while cutting overtime and benefits for remaining employees hinders gainful employment. Corporate trending toward part time hiring only hasn't helped much either. These business choices set the country up for what was the icing on the cake by the time the financial crisis hit.
High unemployment isn't that the American worker is lazy wanting something for nothing as Republicans are fixated on, it's due to living wage jobs are just too far and in between to be found.
The GOP mindset in thinking that anyone who is able to work and willing will find a job. If the GOP has any grasp as to what the job market is today, then they would know that unemployment is involuntary for the vast majority of U.S. workers.
In April of 2011, Republican politicians and investors said if you want to really work go to McDonalds, their hiring with 50,000 new job openings. Well Americans did, over one million applied for those 50,000 hamburger flipping openings.
According to the U.S. Labor Bureau of Statistics, accounting for all segments of unemployment whether they be short term or long term in their U6 report, 24 million Americans can't find employment.
Another statistic that surveys the employed points out that 40% of American families that are employed have suffered from reduced wages, hours and benefits. As we all know here in America, for the vast majority of the middleclass it takes two incomes to keep comfortably afoot. A household member today, may be working, but his or her spouse has lost their job, or both still work but have had total work hours reduced, or benefits have been taken away or gone up so high they can no longer be afforded, or a combination of all these instances have occurred.
Yes this weakened economy courses through a deep and wide river. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) came out with their estimate of real GDP, which is a measure of sustainable output. It shows that the U.S. economy is 7% below operating capacity than what it should currently be now. That is in the neighborhood of $1 trillion per year of less value we as a nation should be producing but aren't. This is a measure to real GDP growth of manufactured goods we are losing out on and won't gain back.
Why is this CBO measure not gaining any attention? Republicans insist it is only for short term and focus should instead be on long term. But this continuing slump undermines our future investment. Republicans retaliate with myths that it's uncertainty that undermines future investments "with that socialist in the White House." But investment is currently a low trend because businesses aren't selling enough to use the capacity they already have. Why is that? Because the greatest consumer spending resource in the world is the American worker and he is not employed.
As long as public programs are being pillaged through cuts and eliminations during this economic crisis that unemployed American worker is not going to consume while being savaged from both ends in job security and the taking away of programs to get him back on his own two feet.
Besides the physical abuse middleclass working Americans have endured from this economic crisis and stripping of public program benefits and services, there has also been a great emotional and personal toll that may change the character of the average American worker.
To remain unemployed is demeaning to say the least. It engulfs the pride and joy once maintained in knowing the family was being provided. It adds stress and pressures that can't be absolved without income. When self-dignity reaches its limit, despair can easily settle in. In having a resourceful income in an economy driven society it is an enormous boost to human well-being and self-worth. That for the time being has been lost for a lot of folks.
For those that simply mutter, "go get a job," are the first that would have to honestly confess they know of no jobs that they could offer and lead one to. Economical and natural disasters do and will occur, but so far we have been able to pull through them. The shame about this current economic crisis, is that our leaders have the knowledge, tools and technologies available to approach this current fallout, but a few of our leaders prefer to ignore these resources and allow the agony to continue.

This great test was more arduous on Yusuf than the test of his brothers, and his sabr in the face of it was of greater reward. This is because it was sabr of choice in the face of many temptations and it entailed action, but he prioritized the love of Allah ahead of that.
As for the test of his brothers, then his sabr there was a sabr of necessity, similar in status to sickness and misfortunes with afflict a slave outside of his choosing and from which there is no refuge except having sabr over them – whether willingly or unwillingly. And so Yusuf ('alaihi al-salaam) remained honorable in the house of [his owner] al-'Azeez.

The statement of Allah, "He said: I only complain of my grief" the reality of al-bath [used here to mean grief] linguistically is what is broadcast among the people about those acts of destruction which are not able to be concealed, so calamities became termed as bath metaphorically.
Allah says "and" – instead of 'so' – "I cannot avail you against Allah at all" for what is decreed must occur. "Verily! The decision rests only with Allah" – meaning the preordination is His preordination, and the command is His command, so His preordainment and ruling must happen. "In him, I put my trust" – meaning, I rely and depend upon Allah, and not upon what I sincerely advise you of the means to achieve your objective. "And let all those that trust, put their trust in Him" for with tawakkal, one achieves every objective, and drives away every fear.
ثم قال: (وَمَا أُغْنِي عَنْكُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ) معناه: إن كان الله قضى فيكم قضاء فيصيبكم مجتمعين كنتم أو متفرقين، فإن المقدور كائن والحذر لا ينفع من القدر، (إِنِ الْحُكْمُ) ما الحكم، (إِلا لِلَّهِ) هذا تفويض يعقوب أموره إلى الله، (عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ) اعتمدت، (وَعَلَيْهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ).
Then Allah said, "and I cannot avail you against Allah at all". The meaning of this is: If Allah preordained for you a preordainment, then you will be afflicted with it whether you are all together or separated, for the decree must occur and caution cannot benefit one against the Divine Decree. "Verily! The decision" – what Allah has ruled – "rests only with Allah" – this is Ya'qub's entrusting and consignment of his affairs to Allah (al-tafweedh). "In him, I put my trust" – meaning rely and depend upon – "and let all those that trust, put their trust in Him".
ـ (مَا كَانَ يُغْنِي) يدفع (عَنْهُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ) صَدَق اللهُ تعالى يعقوبَ فيما قال، (إِلا حَاجَةً) مراداً، (فِي نَفْسِ يَعْقُوبَ قَضَاهَا) أشفق عليهم إشفاق الآباء على أبنائهم وجرى الأمر عليه، (وَإِنَّهُ) يعني: يعقوب عليه السلام، (لَذُو عِلْمٍ) يعني: كان يعمل ما يعمل عن علم لا عن جهل، (لِمَا عَلَّمْنَاهُ) أي: لتعليمنا إياه. وقيل: إنه لعامل بما علم.
ـ (وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لا يَعْلَمُونَ) ما يعلم يعقوب لأنهم لم يسلكوا طريق إصابة العلم. وقال ابن عباس: لا يعلم المشركون ما ألهم الله أولياءه.
(وَلَمَّا دَخَلُواْ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَمَرَهُمْ أَبُوهُم) أي: من الأبواب المتفرقة ولم يجتمعوا داخلين من باب واحد. وجواب لما (مَّا كَانَ يُغْنِى عَنْهُمْ) ذلك الدخول (مِنَ الله) أي: من جهته (مِن شَئ) من الأشياء مما قدّره الله عليهم لأن الحذر لا يدفع القدر، والاستثناء بقوله: (إِلاَّ حَاجَةً فِى نَفْسِ يَعْقُوبَ قَضَاهَا) منقطع، والمعنى: ولكن حاجة كانت في نفس يعقوب، وهي شفقته عليهم، ومحبته لسلامتهم، قضاها يعقوب، أي: أظهرها لهم، ووصاهم بها غير معتقد أن للتدبير الذي دبره لهم تأثيراً في دفع ما قضاه الله عليهم. وقيل: إنه خطر ببال يعقوب أن الملك إذا رآهم مجتمعين مع ما يظهر فيهم من كمال الخلقة، وسيما الشجاعة أوقع بهم حسداً وحقداً أو خوفاً منهم، فأمرهم بالتفرّق لهذه العلة.
(وَإِنَّهُ لَذُو عِلْمٍ لّمَا عَلَّمْنَاهُ) أي: وإن يعقوب لصاحب علم لأجل تعليم الله إياه بما أوحاه الله من أن الحذر لا يدفع القدر، وأن ما قضاه الله سبحانه فهو كائن لا محالة. (ولكن أَكْثَرَ الناس لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ) بذلك كما ينبغي. وقيل: لا يعلمون أن الحذر مندوب إليه، وإن كان لا يغني من القدر شيئاً، والسياق يدفعه. وقيل: المراد بأكثر الناس المشركون.
"And indeed, he was a possessor of knowledge because of what We had taught him" – meaning that Ya'qub was a possessor of knowledge due to the teaching which Allah had specifically given him from what Allah had inspired to him that caution does not repel qadr, and that whatever Allah the Exalted has preordained will happen without any doubt. "But most of the people do not know" that to the extent that they should. And it is said, "they do not know that caution is regrettable for them, and that it cannot avail one anything against Allah's decree (qadr), nor repel it." And it is said that "it means that most of the people are polytheists".


The National Museum is a research institution within the Ministry of Culture. It has the same status and requirements as other state research institutions. Guidelines for the National Museum's research can be found in the Museums Law of 2014 and in the Law regarding research carried out at archives, libraries, museums etc. of 1996.
The National Museum is Denmark's main museum of cultural history, which means that it is responsible for carrying out and communicating research within the museum's main areas, both at a national and international level.
The museum's research activities are based upon its own and external collections, antiquarian work, archives, libraries and other sources which can shed light on given subjects. Against this background, the museum's research contributes to the understanding of the connection between society and society's development, culture and cultural identity, together with the interaction between man and nature. Within these areas the museum undertakes research to obtain new knowledge about our cultural heritage.
The museum communicates its research results both to the broad general public and to research circles.
This is one of the main conclusions made about the National Museum's research by an international panel of evaluation of highly qualified researchers from Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands and Belgium. You can read their conclusions in an evaluation report covering the period 1995-2004. The evaluation was undertaken in the autumn of 2005.
That the National Museum carries out research of a high quality.
That the National Museum's research is of a world class standard in some areas.
That the National Museum is widely recognised as an attractive partner to collaborate with by other researchers in the field, both in Denmark and the rest of the world.
That the National Museum's research is the starting point for high profile communication of information, involving exhibitions, teaching and publications.
That the National Museum's research is vital and relevant for it to fulfil its other responsibilities of collection, registration, conservation and dissemination of information.
The overall results of this evaluation can be found in the report 'Evaluation of the research of the National Museum in Denmark 1995-2004'.

1700 job losses in the North East
By : David Lee
Comment: Off
When former owner Corus saw its Redcar Teesside Cast Products plant suffer from lower demand and the loss of orders, the plant was mothballed and the blast furnace eventually turned off.
AS shellshocked Teesside steelworkers face up to SSI UK's devastating demise, the attention turns to the company's plant and hopes production can start again.
Community union general secretary Roy Rickhus said: "Steelmaking on Teesside must have a future and our fight to save our steel will continue".
"As a further effect of the mothballing, it is proposed to reduce by 1,700" the number of employees, it added.
Cornelius Louwrens, SSI United Kingdom business director and chief operating officer, had said: " The problems within the global steel industry have been well publicised in recent weeks and our decision follows a major deterioration in steel prices affecting our business during the course of this year".
'Together with our parent company and the various other stakeholders, they have worked so hard in their endeavours to try and make this business successful'.
"Market conditions this year have been extremely challenging and unfortunately this has led to the decision we are announcing today".
"I would like to pay tribute to and thank everyone connected with SSI United Kingdom for their great support". My wish is that this facility can once again restart operations and fulfil the potential of the plant and its loyal workforce.
Some only heard the devastating news through the media or on Facebook.
"GMB will do all in our power to press the case for Government to act and to protect our members and their families", he promised.
They pointed to the importance of the steel-making sector for the wider industry and the entire economy.
British unions say that if SSI United Kingdom fails it could cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of pounds in redundancy and clean-up costs.
The move comes as MPs and trade unions are demanding government action to save the Scunthorpe Tata Steelworks and the rest of the United Kingdom steel industry. He needs to deliver on that.
"We've called for an emergency summit with Government to look at what more can be done to support the industry".
George Osborne's visit to China to drum up support for infrastructure investment will also be scrutinised in the context of SSI's announcement with United Kingdom steel firms having raised concerns over Chinese imports flooding the United Kingdom market. Skills honed over the years of working in steel – but they are skills too unique to transfer.
The Redcar plant, on the coast near the industrial town of Middlesbrough, is in an economically deprived region of Britain, where locals fear the loss of thousands more jobs indirectly related to steelmaking.

It was a scorching hot day in Philadelphia, but Elizabeth and Erich braved the heat and we all took a stroll down Ben Franklin Parkway. Elizabeth wore an awesome yellow dress, which coordinated perfectly with Erich's blue shirt. But color matching wasn't the only thing wonderfully in harmony with these two. They clicked, they felt each other, and one could easily see – these two are perfectly head over heels in love with each other. All they had to do is look at one another and their eyes would sparkle and their smiles grew big. We are looking forward to Erich and Elizabeth's wedding next April. Until then, here are few of our favorites from this sunny, joyful, and super hot engagement shoot.
Lauren and John have been coming to Fluehr Park since they started dating back in highs school. Now, mere months before their big day, we met them at their spot to remenise and create new memories as we strolled through the parks' green fields and took some beautiful images. It was a beautiful spring day and we had a hard time picking our favorites from the bunch. Can't wait for Lauren and John's wedding day next year!
Summer evenings in the city are beautiful! Even more so with a couple so obviously in love! We loved working with Lautrelle and Saleem during their engagement session in Center City Philadelphia. We started at Dilworth park right by city hall and then took a stroll through surrounding areas (kudos to Lautrelle for soldering on in those amazing shoes!). Once the sun set and the city turned its night look on we got some awesome shots of the city views. What a perfect night for a perfect couple!


The beer is surprisingly balanced, rich grain/malt, subtle and much lower than expected bitterness with an interesting hoppy aroma. When they were drying, the home grown Chinook had an intense 'pine forest' aroma, but in this beer they are much more subdued and impart an interesting and different flavour. The resulting bitterness level means that the beer is not really an 'IPA' as it's named but much like an English Pale Ale. In hind-sight (and if I had had not used the last of the hops in that batch) a 60min bittering addition combined with the large 10min addition would probably have pushed the hop bitterness to where I was expecting it to be and balance the malt sweetness just a little more.

Down at the Stable Theatre running up to Christmas Eve is a rough diamond of a new work produced by Stable Theatre and Eager Artists. Directed by Jerry Pooe, Messiah Musical is a moving piece about the life of Jesus Christ set in an African context. Musical numbers include some well-known numbers and carols. Jerry has written the lyrics for some of the new songs and these have been set to music by the inimitable Patti Nokwe who also appears in the show.
The show starts off on an explosive note as Joseph (Simon Gwala) refuses to believe Mary's story that she has been made pregnant by an angel. He exits in fury determined to find out who has defiled his wife. Mary, sensitively played by Mihla Magagula, is left in anguish to be consoled by Elizabeth (Patti Nokwe).
What follows is a vigorous and exuberant telling of the story of Christ interspersed with song and dance – including a particularly hilarious "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" turned into traditional Zulu dance style by choreographer Mdu Mtshali! The young cast includes some exciting new talent on the way up.
Herod was played Thami Sikhosana who also gave a poignant and compelling presentation of the raising of Lazarus. The Three Kings – although at first I thought they were the shepherds because they were carrying long sticks - were played by Xolani Henema, Wayne Dimba and Zelani Mthembu (of the dazzling smile) who also played Simon Peter. Sifiso Makhanya was a good Pontius Pilate.
Putting in an extremely good performance all round, Simon Gwala also plays Judas and the scene where he explains how he will indicate who Jesus is by kissing him was well-played. Judas's song of despair after the betrayal was excellent.
Thami Zungu made an imposing and compassionate Jesus but he needs to give some attention to his voice which is set too far back in his throat and may give him trouble later if he intends to make theatre his career.
The scenario is a dress rehearsal where last minute adjustments are still being made by the director (Bhekani Biyela) who is seated in the auditorium. While he gives a consistently strong performance, I would prefer Bhekani to use his lower vocal range to produce anger as he tends to sound hysterical at times. A shielded light on his table will bring him into the production a little more and give the audience the opportunity to observe the nice attention to detail he gives his role.
Special mention must be made of Dumisile Mqadi who is one of the best dancers on stage. She plays the prostitute and the song that follows her deliverance gives us insight into her considerable ability as a performer. The other fine dancer is Xolani Henema (one of the kings) who also shows much promise as a comedy actor.
Waiting for the show to start, the audience is treated to a good music combo led by Sandile Mpungose on keyboards (definitely time for him to resettle in Durban after being in Gauteng!) with Philani Duma on drums, Mduduzi Mahlobo on lead guitar and Bongani Nkwanyana on bass guitar.
The show requires stronger or better-placed lighting and the cast need to be trained to find the light and stay in it! The sound is very erratic. This is a difficult venue because of its high roof but I think attention needs to be given to creating a better acoustic value otherwise we do not get the benefit of the cast's talents. The Stable Theatre is now far more upmarket with the installation of brand new comfortable chairs on the upper raking.
Jerry Pooe has created a work with much potential. I would like to see it again next year on a bigger scale on the mainstream circuit at the Playhouse or the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre.


Suriya rewrites Bharathiyar's poem in TSK!
If you thought the teaser of Thaana Serndha Koottam will show Suriya in a new light who questions the system and also gets into action to make a change, your perception will be re-iterated by the poster the team had released yesterday on account of Mahakavi Bharathiyar's birthday.
Suriya is found in the middle with kids around him dressed like the poet and we see a famous line from his poems ' Thani oru manithanuku unavillaiyenil '... rewritten as ' Thani oru manithanuku velaiyillaiyenil'.
TSK's rights have also been sold for a good price to Amazon and Sun TV.

Q: Sort columns in a TableForm I have a list in the form
join = {{3, {-5, 4, 4}}, {6, {2, -1, -1}}, {7, {-105, 32,
104}}, {8, {-1, 1,
2}}, {8, {18, -12, -16}}, {9, {217, -52, -216}}, {10, {-171, 130,
141}}, {10, {4, -3, -3}}}

I've done the following:
len = Length[DeleteDuplicates[First[Transpose[join]]]]

TableForm[Table[DeleteDuplicates@Flatten[GatherBy[join, First][[i]],1], {i,1,len}],TableDepth->2]

to get the output grouped by the first element (the single number, i.e. 3, 6, 7, 8 ,9, 10) and displayed as a TableForm.
The three-element sublists contain either one or two negative numbers. I would like to have the TableForm arranged so that in the second column there will be only those containing one negative number, and in the third column only those with two negative numbers. How can I do that?

A: join = {{3, {-5, 4, 4}}, {6, {2, -1, -1}}, {7, {-105, 32,
     104}}, {8, {-1, 1,
     2}}, {8, {18, -12, -16}}, {9, {217, -52, -216}}, {10, {-171, 130,
      141}}, {10, {4, -3, -3}}};
table = {#, {}, {}} & /@ Union[First /@ join];
AppendTo[table[[#1 /.
       Thread[Union[First /@ join] -> Range@Length@table],
      Total@Map[Boole@*Negative, #2] + 1]], #2] & @@@ join;

Full-Length Trailer for Netflix's 'The Two Popes' with Hopkins & Pryce
"Nothing is static in nature, not even God." Netflix has debuted the full-length official trailer for the indie drama The Two Popes, not to be confused with the TV series "The New Pope" (or "The Young Pope"). This premiered at the Telluride & Toronto Film Festivals to effusive reviews from pretty much everyone. Behind the Vatican walls, the traditionalist Pope Benedict and the reformist future Pope Francis must find common ground to forge a new path for the Catholic Church. Jonathan Pryce plays the incoming Pope Francis, and Pope Benedict is played by Anthony Hopkins. Also starring Juan Minujín, Sidney Cole, Thomas D Williams, Federico Torre, and Pablo Trimarchi. This film seems to be one of the biggest surprise hits of the second half of this year, with everyone saying it's fantastic after seeing it at one of the many festivals it has stopped by so far. Based on all this strong early buzz, it's one of my most anticipated left to see this year.
Here's the second trailer (+ new poster) for Fernando Meirelles' The Two Popes, from Netflix's YouTube:
You can still watch the first teaser trailer for Meirelles' The Two Popes here, to view the early reveal again.
An intimate story of one of the most dramatic transitions of power in the last 2,000 years. Frustrated with the direction of the church, Cardinal Bergoglio (Jonathan Pryce) requests permission to retire in 2012 from Pope Benedict (Anthony Hopkins). Instead, facing scandal and self-doubt, the introspective Pope Benedict summons his harshest critic and future successor to Rome to reveal a secret that would shake the foundations of the Catholic Church. Behind Vatican walls, a struggle commences between both tradition and progress, guilt and forgiveness, as these two very different men confront elements from their pasts in order to find common ground and forge a future for a billion followers around the world. The Two Popes is directed by talented Brazilian filmmaker Fernando Meirelles, director of the films The Nutty Boy 2, Domésticas, City of God, The Constant Gardener, Blindness, and 360 previously. The screenplay is written by Anthony McCarten. This first premiered at the Telluride & Toronto Film Festival this year. Netflix opens Meirelles' The Two Popes in select theaters starting November 27th, then streaming on December 20th.


Recent innovations within POS systems—plus the ability to expand, upgrade and sync to other systems—have created a perfect storm of peak performance.
In short, POS trends are poised to change the future for pizzeria operators—and their customers—for the better. We talked to a number of experts about how today's POS systems are becoming supercharged.
According to Mobey Forum, a global industry association that focuses on mobile financial services, mobile POS terminals are projected to reach 46% market penetration by 2017, up from the 17% share held in 2012—and pizzeria chains are catching on. Atlanta-headquartered Mellow Mushroom (mellowmushroom.com), with 160-plus locations across the country, currently uses a traditional mounted system, but POS administrator Will Nash says he is mulling the possibilities of a mobile POS system, which would allow servers to tote tablets around the pizzeria and key in orders tableside.
Customers, meanwhile, can track their orders on their phones and pay at the end of the meal. The systems even let your guests split the check according to menu item, fraction or dollar amount and add a gratuity. An email receipt is sent to the customer, and the app tracks purchases so that the customer can review food or drink items ordered in the past.
A system like this also allows the pizzeria operator to use back-end marketing analytics to track any customer's number of visits, average ticket, personal preferences and more. Meanwhile, the customer can provide feedback after the meal (in TabbedOut's case, simply a thumbs up or down, plus space for comments), which is then sent directly to management staff in real time through a mobile phone alert.
Finally, the customer enjoys peace of mind because his credit card info is encrypted in his phone, so he doesn't need to give his card to staff members, thus protecting both customers and businesses from fraud.
Mellow Mushroom execs currently use a traditional mounted POS but are considering the possibilities of a mobile system.
Open APIs (application programming interfaces) allow different technologies to work together, which can be especially helpful for marketing with your POS data. "With open APIs, you open communication to another provider," Wise says. "So you can text a coupon offer, for example, and enter that code in the POS system, and another company validates and clears the coupon, communicates back to the customer, and disables the coupon so it can't be used again." Another example: When a customer registers for perks such as a loyalty program or sweepstakes offers, he can be later messaged by text or push notifications to visit the pizzeria when he's geographically close to a location, and operators can see who responds to different offers.
Recently at Mellow Mushroom, execs took advantage of a similar promotional initiative. The pizzeria partnered with HelloWorld and Coca-Cola to engage consumers and drive sales. Through a custom microsite and an SMS (text messaging) entry system, customers who bought Coca-Cola products in the pizzeria were provided with a code to enter a sweepstakes and win a prize (including instant prizes, like a gift card, and a grand prize, two tickets to the American Music Awards). Mellow Mushroom saw that an overwhelming number of sweepstakes entrants entered via mobile devices, so by tying the sweepstakes to SMS marketing, Mellow Mushroom was able to build its SMS database, connect with consumers and improve loyalty.
Steven Sams, digital content manager at Mellow Mushroom, affirms that outside vendors can help improve email marketing for a pizzeria, integrating with the POS system to distribute, track and redeem offers. Nash adds that the company is even looking into wait-list software tied into its POS system to further connect with customers. "This offers the ability for the host to take a reservation on an iPad when there's a wait, then send a text when the table is ready, which further builds our database," Nash says.
With many locations across the United States, Mellow Mushroom works with its partners to determine ideal food costs so that an owner can measure actual costs versus the ideal. But for independent operators, who have so many other pressing tasks, it can be more difficult to establish and track food costs. One company, Eyenalyze, has linked with both POS companies and food suppliers to produce a technology that marries the two, providing a theoretical plate cost for any recipe.
On busy nights at Mellow Mushroom, pay-at-the-table capabilities can speed up table turnover while tracking customers' buying habits.
"Often, POS suppliers and food suppliers don't communicate, and if you're working with more than one food supplier, your options are limited as an operator," explains Michael J. Rasmussen, owner of Rasmussen Tax Group in Conway, Arkansas, and a partner in Eyenalyze. "If operators have to manually enter what they're buying from each supplier, analyzing food costs often falls by the wayside." Thankfully, Rasmussen adds, POS systems are steadily moving toward storing data in the cloud rather than only within the POS itself, so an owner can access info anytime, anywhere, from a mobile device. This cloud-based approach makes it easier for restaurant owners to monitor food costs on a daily basis and make sure they're on track.
To get your online ordering off the ground, Fang recommends incentivizing consumers to try it—for example, running a coupon and email campaign for 20% off a customer's first online order—and using the POS to track its success.
Pizza Guys (pizzaguys.com), based in Sacramento, California, similarly works to push customers toward online ordering. "One simple thing to do is enable the tagging of 'order type' in your POS system," says Michael Morgan, vice president of operations for Pizza Guys Franchises. "The first step is to have a printed notice on the tag that lets the staff know if the order was made online or not. When an order comes in that is not online, we provide a card with a low-value offer to incentivize the customer to place his next order online. A free order of garlic bread or a low-value dessert usually has a strong effect." Although he admits the tactic may not work the first or second time, Morgan has found that regular customers will get "worn down" after repeated offers and will eventually give your online system a try.
According to Morgan, many POS companies are still trying to get their mobile platforms fully cross-functional with their in-store platforms—a lot of online systems, after all, grew as bolt-ons to existing systems. But the next generation is being designed from the ground up to work as a single system, Morgan adds. Meanwhile, his POS vendor remains active in assisting Pizza Guys' efforts to boost its percentage of online orders. For example, the vendor provided Pizza Guys with a coupon that will allow the pizzeria to generate a code (a one-time-use code or a common code that works one time per customer) for an offer to attract online customers. Pizza Guys can print those codes on cards and other media to hand to non-online-ordering customers, and the pizzeria can track the offer's success rate—thus optimizing the dollars spent on these programs and getting the biggest return per dollar spent.

The Simple Life 3: Emissary was supposed to come out in "late 2018," but now, we're in March 2019. How's the development going?
Hi. Any news on The Simple Life 3? Thanks!
The server files are not very intuitive, and may not be working properly.
There are too many empty folders, and also too many files as everything is one in place, which one do I run? The only one that properly launches is minecraft_server.1.10.2, but it seems to be a vanilla server.
I figured out the solution to my problems! If you extract the files incorrectly, you run into issues. I had to first extract the server files, then go into that folder, and drop the only folder in that folder onto my Desktop to make it work.
I also had to create a .bat to run the server and give it more memory, instead of using the command prompt every time I ran the program, I called it MinecraftServer.bat and it's best to Google how to do this (if someone else is reading this).
This modpack is amazing! I love how the bits and pieces work together. I researched advanced storage, while my friend did industry. When I needed power for my machines, he plugged in a windmill and there it goes! Great pack to play with friends.
I just installed my first server with 64k storage and I'm having a great time!
As soon as I launch the game and the Mojang logo disappears the game crashes and this happens all the time I have never even seen the sinplayer or multiplayer option on this mudpack please help me!
i have a problem with the modpack 2 days ago i've updated and now im finding all the ores like this one and i don't really like it is it to easy to get ores this way.
I would like to know the name of the mod to remove it.
It's a 1.12.2 pack so I guess not.
I have a problem with the mob killing quest in 1: The Simple Life.
when i clicked on it, my minecraft would be crash.
i don't know how to fix it by myself.
anny Release date for Simple life 3??? cant wait for it.
Only qwestion for it will be is are you planning on usunf the newer versions of mods like the new tinkers that includes armor.
if you're hainvg issues launching this through the Twitch Launcher, go into the Twitch Launcher Settings and change the Java version for Minecraft from Native to Latest. This forces you to use the old launcher but it will allow the modpack to load.
Can i use with Minecraft Windows 10 edition?
Hey, I am a fellow author and was trying to join your discord. I have many I join and I rarely just Lurk like most do.
