Present (18) - Victoria Ashley, Doug Barnett, Marla Bernstein, June Brashares, Susan Chunco, Deatra Cohen, Mica Daniel, Angelica Duenas, Sanda Everette, Mike Feinstein, Sadie Fulton, Bert Heuer, Ann Menasche, Mike Murphy, Mimi Newton, Ajay Rai, Laura Wells, and Stephen Zollman.
Absent (2) - Mike Goldbeck, and Tarik Kanaana.
Also present, but coming onto the call after quorum call (3) - Eric Brooks (7:38 pm), Eric Luna (7:40 pm) and Erik Rydberg (8:15 pm).
*Proposal*: Approve the agenda (version II sent to CC on 2/5/18 at 10:26 am).
Mike Feinstein proposed reordering of Items… [Mike says he will send in his stand aside objections regarding the ERWG item to the Note Taker.]. The Political Party Statement needs to get done - it’s now Item number 12. He proposes we change it to number 9.
Mimi Newton raises the problem with a typo in the item number 4, on the Minutes - last month’s draft minutes are not in Appendix K but in an email she sent to the CC on Jan. 26, 2018. Those draft minutes include an Appendix K, which is the draft December Minutes. As Note taker, she will include them in these minutes as Appendix L.
Mike Feinstein also recommends that Agenda item number 14 be moved up for the GA discussion, up to part of 8 - 8b.
*Proposal*: Approve the minutes for the January, 8 2018 CC Meeting.
*Reference*: Jan. 8, 2018 GPCA COORDINATING COMMITTEE MEETING - DRAFT MINUTES that Mimi Newton sent to CC on Jan. 26, 2018. (Appendix L).
On our January call there were outstanding concerns about approval of Minutes by Mike Feinstein, Ajay Rai and Eric Brooks. Mike is not willing to stand aside.
Friendly amendment from Mimi Newton for Mike Feinstein to clarify his concerns, send a proposed revision to the CC and that the CC reagendize the item for the March CC meeting. Mike would be okay with that.
Mica agrees to friendly amendment.
Any questions or concerns? None.
*Background and Purpose*: Mica Daniel is re-applying to the Finance Committee per her application below.
*Proposal*: That the CC discuss and make a decision on Mica Daniel’s application to be appointed to the Finance Committee.
My name is Mica Daniel and I have served on the Finance Committee for several years and I am requesting reappointment. My commitment to the Finance Committee is having a balance budget, funds to move the party forward, and transparency. Thank you for your consideration.
*Background and Purpose*: Shane Que Hee is re-applying to the Platform Committee per his application below.
*Proposal*: That the CC discuss and make a decision on Shane Que Hee’s application to the Platform Committee.
Shane Que Hee has been Co-Co of the GPCA Platform Committee since 2004, and heads the LGBT Caucus of Los Angeles County recognized by the Green Party of Los Angeles County. He requests a final term a Co-Co of the GPCA Platform Committee. He will continue to update and improve the GPCA Platform and seek new members.
Ajay - Question as to whether there has been any succession planning since Shane says this will be his final term.
Mike - Shane said he wouldn’t do this term, so we are very lucky to get this one last term from him.
Any other questions or concerns? None.
Re: a bylaws interpretation for the Alternate delegates election.
*Background and Purpose*: The Coordinating Committee considered a Bylaws Interpretation at its August 8, 2017 meeting, proposed by Mimi Newton, to provide for a special election to fill a single vacancy on the GPUS Delegation among the Alternates. However the Bylaws Interpretation that was proposed that was ultimately amended and approved, contained findings for a different Interpretation than was ultimately approved - one that would fill three vacancies.. Hence the findings no longer fit the interpretation and would provide great confusion to the Standing General Assembly once submitted to it for approval.
This proposal is to substitute the findings from Feinstein’s proposal to the proposal made by Newton, so that when it goes to the SGA, it has findings that fit the Interpretation ultimately made by the CC.
*Proposal*: That the following findings are adopted to accompany the proposal by Newton of August 8, 2017, in order to accompany it to the SGA scheduled to begin on February 12, 2018.
Mimi Newton and Mike Feinstein offer to work out the language for the bylaws interpretation regarding the GPUS Alternate Delegate Election and Mimi will send the revised language to the SGA Vote Administrators for Posting with the upcoming SGA Vote.
*Background and Purpose*: The CCWG at its meeting on January 28th, 2018, approved a proposal requesting this action.
The CCWG requests the GPCA Coordinating Committee take the necessary action (approve a statement of findings / bylaws interpretation) to bring an endorsement proposal to the Standing General Assembly (SGA), to make endorsements in statewide races in advance of the June 2018 Primary. This endorsement process would be included in the next SGA (discussion period begins February 12) and would state that all Green candidates who have pulled papers to run for statewide offices in California *and* who have officially *qualified* to be candidates on the CA primary ballot by the time of the SGA vote (voting period starting March 26th), will be on the SGA ballot for endorsement. “No position” will be an option.
The endorsement process will be voided if the SGA votes against the CC’s findings (bylaws interpretation) that would have enabled the endorsements.
The CC's statement of findings, that would clarify the extraordinary circumstances and their significance for the GPCA, can include mention of the current Top Two primary system for statewide office.
Since the implementation of the Top Two primary system in California in 2012, political party primaries have been eliminated. Under the current Top Two system, it is highly unlikely that any Green Party candidate will appear on the statewide general election ballot. Therefore the GPCA has been making endorsements for Greens running in statewide races prior to the primary, and the GPCA has done so via the SGA since 2014.
The Coordinating Committee on the November 6, 2017, teleconference discussed the CC’s intent to have a SGA endorsement process to determine endorsements of statewide candidates in the June 2018 primary.
The CCWG at its meeting on January 28th, 2018, approved a proposal requesting this action.
*Proposal*: Approve the following Statement of Findings / Bylaws Interpretation to bring an endorsement process to the Standing General Assembly (SGA), to determine endorsements of Green candidates in statewide races for the June 2018 Primary.
JUNE - proposal to allow this to go to the SGA, where the SGA delegates would vote on endorsements. If the SGA votes down the proposal, then no endorsements, but if the proposal were approved, the SGA delegates would simultaneously endorse individual candidates based on who qualifies. In terms of the endorsements, delegates would be given three options: Endorse, Oppose or take no position.
Mike Feinstein has outstanding concerns and is not willing to stand aside - the matter goes to an immediate vote.
Yes Votes (15): Victoria Ashley, June Brashares, Eric Brooks, Susan Chunco, Deatra Cohen, Mica Daniel, Sadie Fulton, Bert Heuer, Eric Luna, Ann Menasche, Mike Murphy, Mimi Newton, Erik Rydberg, Laura Wells and Stephen Zollman.
No Votes (6): Doug Barnett, Marla Bernstein, Angelica Duenas, Sanda Everette, Mike Feinstein, and Ajay Rai.
Absent (2): Mike Goldbeck and Tarik Kanaana.
6 opposed and 15 in support.
Out of the 21 Members present, the 60% threshold requires 13 to pass.
The proposal passes - June Brashares to submit it to the SGA Vote Administrators to post during the next SGA discussion period and vote.
*Proposal*: To decide if members want to revise the current statement, and if so, whom will be involved.
Attached, please find a request for your party’s statement of purpose for possible inclusion in the June 5, 2018, Statewide Direct Primary Election state Voter Information Guide. Statements will be due no later than 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 15, 2018. I will be mailing a hard copy as well.
Upon review of the attached documents, should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
A discussion occurred about amending the Statement.
Stephen Zollman, Mimi Newton, Laura Wells, Vic Ashley and Eric Brooks offer to help with revisions.
Eric Brooks made a friendly amendment to start a 1 week vote ending on Sunday and Mike Feinstein added his request that an initial draft be sent out with the corrected P.O. Box and the 8 words deleted so we have a fallback in case we cannot agree on other revisions.
Mica agreed to post the fallback version to kick off the discussion/voting period tonight (or tomorrow morning).
Vic is willing to stand aside - it is disappointing that this group won’t allow the smaller group to work on this without a CC Vote.
*Background*: There will be at least four ballot measures on the June 2018 ballot. GPCA Bylaws specify that GPCA positions taken on such ballot measure are done through the Standing General Assembly. However the 2018-2018 work plan approved by the Sacramento General Assembly in June 2018 did not contain a Standing General Assembly scheduled at the traditional time that such endorsement SGAs are held - i.e. once the information about each measure from the Legislative Analysts Office is available, as well as the pro/con arguments contained in the ballot pamphlet. This bylaws interpretation would allow for an SGA to be held in a time period to maximize the availability of such information to SGA delegates.
Mike is not on the line.
Sanda has questions about this item.
June gave background information on the proposal. Suggests we not adopt this proposal since CCWG considered and rejected this and has its own proposal on endorsements for measures.
Call for consensus regarding rejecting this proposal - no outstanding concerns.
*Background and Purpose*: The ERWG would like to put on the agenda the petitioning effort for repeal of Top Two. We would like to have contacts in every county willing to coordinate the gathering of signatures and would like to discuss how to organize this effort.
*Proposal*: To organize a petitioning effort for repeal of Top Two, including county contacts and methods of organizing.
A discussion was begun with about a minute to go in the meeting.
The discussion regarding the top two repeal effort continued briefly with some members choosing to stay on the line. There was also a suggestion that the website discussion (item # 13) be put up higher on the agenda for next month’s meeting and that we have tighter control of long discussions so we can get to important items.
*Background and Purpose*: New IT Committee members have submitted a Report to the CC summarizing their survey results, along with proposed changes.
Please find attached the GPCA Website & Platform Gap Analysis report.
Since I sent the survey during the holidays, we did not receive a huge number of replies but the input from all was detailed and informative. I have also included in the report, a table of survey responses as well as individual recommendations from the IT Committee members.
I hope this exercise can help inform your decision on how to proceed with updating the GPCA website.
*Background*: Some time ago, the Coordinating Committee approved a proposal for Mike Feinstein to go back in the Coordinating Committee’s past minutes and add to those minutes, when a Coordinating Committee member had missed three meetings in a row, so that it was clear and transparent when this occurred - and hence when it led to a special election being held to fill that vacancy. This proposal would amend the Coordinating Committee’s Internal Procedures regarding the taking of minutes, to include such information going forward.
3-8.1 Minutes of Coordinating Committee meetings shall consist of the date, time, location (where applicable) and attendance (including when leaving call), any modifications to the agenda, agenda items heard, decisions-taken (including who voted for, against or stood aside) and the text of all proposals, including amendments. Minutes shall also include when any Coordinating Committee member has missed three consecutive regular meetings.
> 3-5.5 The minutes taker for a CC meeting shall record the time of the meeting at which role has been taken and quorum established, and shall also clearly record the time of arrival of any CC member who announces their presence late at the meeting after role has been taken and quorum has been established. The minutes taker shall note if and when a member arriving late has arrived in the midst of the presentation and discussion on a decision item.
Sunday, Feb. 18, 2018 at 7:00 pm, Call in number - (515) 739-1271, access code: 753142.

ERWG Call Minutes – 1/29/18 6:30 p.m.
Discussed Stop Top Two ballot initiative. A couple of weeks ago Carol spoke with Jeanne Llewellyn, the woman who spoke at the Ventura GA regarding Stop Top Two, as well as a local San Bernardino county coordinator, and Tom Palzer, the state coordinator for the initiative. All three assured Carol that despite some contributors not following through as expected, the push to get signatures for the initiative are in full swing and that they are committed to get it on the ballot—Tom stated he has invested a lot of his own money so really wants to see it through. Said he really needs our help with signature-gathering. Carol has gotten several petitions completed and will be sending them to him and he has sent a packet of blank forms to her. Tom will be collecting all the completed petitions and turning them in; he stated that he will send blank forms to anyone who requests them. Palzer’s contact information is: Foundation to Stop Top 2, P. O. Box 2413, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91729. Phone is 909-913-9500.
Discussed proposal to Coordinating Committee to seek point people in each county to distribute/collect petitions, send them to Tom Palzer, and obtain more blank forms for signature gathering.
Hope to pursue Eric’s suggestion re Connecticut law next phone call.
Next call scheduled for February 12, 2018 at 7 p.m.

Click on his picture above to see an interview last night for the Daily Show as he explains that while corporations are doing fine right now, the American labor force is not.
As the political game between two parties begins to pick up steam with Republican candidate debates, we find that “innovation,” as Zakaria points out, is one of the few unifying forces in American culture right now. While researchers define innovation as “the implementation of creative ideas,” national commentators tend to refer to it in terms of money–for research and development, for capital to invest in businesses, and for government programs that lead to new companies and products. Zakaria is particularly good at describing that ecosystem that fosters innovation, which includes the need for government investment (that fueled great breakthroughs like the Internet, the microchip and GPS)–and which Republicans are often less thrilled to publicly admit supporting.
Zakaria’s new CNN series, Restoring the American Dream: How to Innovate, debuted last Sunday, and you can find great resources on CNN for better understanding the innovation conversation, including interviews with distinguished innovators, including John Kao, whose Innovation Nation is also a must-read on the subject, and author Steven Johnson in the video below.
I’ve previously referred to this conversation as the innovation imperative–the urgent need we have as a country and a culture, as organizations and individuals, to better learn how to be more creative and foster innovation. One imperative is a national and economic one, which includes creating the ecosystem and investments necessary to bring innovation here at home. Another is our own as individuals and in our organizations. I define innovation in that context as improving what’s now and creating what’s next. For our own innovation to flourish, we have to be constantly working on improving our current state of being–questioning assumptions, proactively seeking out better ways of doing things–and be constantly visioning and creating new strategies and possibilities for the future.
What have you been doing lately to improve what’s now and create what’s next for your own life, career or organization?
Saw the interview. Fareed Zakaria is a genial genius.

The tension between religious law and secular law in modern democracies is illustrated in this article by a discussion of the different approaches to the get (a bill of divorce) refusal (based on Jewish law) under Dutch, English and Israeli law. These legal orders share many characteristics, but also display important differences as to the role of religion and religious law in the public realm. The Dutch system is the most secular of the three; it does not recognize a role for religious law within the secular system as such. The English legislation provides for means that to a certain extent facilitate the effectuation of a religious divorce. In Israel, finally, the law of marriage and divorce is as such governed by the religious law of the parties concerned; for the majority of the population that is Jewish law. An evaluation of the different approaches in the framework of human rights law reveals the complexities of the collision of the underlying values in terms of equality, religious freedom and minority rights, also having regard to the diversity of opinions within religious communities.

Lawson examines Edwards life through the lens of the seventy resolutions he penned in his late teens, shortly after his conversion, which cover everything from glorifying God to repenting of sin to managing time. Drawing on Edwards writings, as well as scholarly accounts of Edwards life and thought, Lawson shows how Edwards sought to live out these lofty goals he set for the management of his walk with Christ. In Edwards example, he finds helpful instruction for all believers.
Dr. Steven J. Lawson is founder and president of OnePassion Ministries, a ministry designed to bring about a new reformation in the church. He is a Ligonier Ministries teaching fellow, director of the Doctor of Ministry program at The Masters Seminary, and host of the Institute for Expository Preaching. He has written more than two dozen books, including The Passionate Preaching of Martyn Lloyd-Jones, The Evangelistic Zeal of George Whitefield, and John Knox: Fearless Faith. He is on Twitter @DrStevenJLawson.
Steven J. Lawson is the senior pastor of Christ Fellowship Baptist Church in Mobile, Alabama. Dr. Lawson serves on the board of directors of The Master's College and on the ministerial board for Reformed Theological Seminary, and teaches with Dr. John MacArthur at the Expositor's Institute. In addition, Dr. Lawson has written numerous books, including Foundations of Grace and Famine in the Land: A Passionate Call for Expository Preaching.
Lawson examines Edwards life through the lens of the seventy resolutions he penned in his late teens, shortly after his conversion. Lawson is quick to note that in writing these resolutions, Edwards was not merely seeking to bolster his own determination. As Edwards himself said before writing the first resolution, Being sensible that I am unable to do anything without Gods help, I do humbly entreat him by his grace to enable me to keep these resolutions . . . for Christs sake. Edwards knew he would never keep his resolutions in his own strength.
The resolutions cover everything from glorifying God to repenting of sin to managing time. Drawing on Edwards writings, as well as scholarly accounts of Edwards life and thought, Lawson shows how Edwards sought to live out these lofty goals he set for the management of his walk with Christ. In Edwards example, he finds helpful instruction for all believers.
"Tired of going at the Christian life in piecemeal fashion? Tired of half-hearted pursuits? Then youve come to the right book. Here Steven Lawson artfully points you to Jonathan Edwards, a model for pursuing holiness, humility, and love, and for the forsaking of sinall driven by a relentless passion to glorify God and enjoy him forever. When Edwards wrote his Resolutions, he likely had no idea how much they would impact his life. Beware, theyll do the same for you."
"The growing embrace of Reformed thought in the past quarter of a century has been very encouraging to those of us who delight in this most biblical expression of Christianity. And the remarkable writings of Jonathan Edwards have, by the grace of God, played no little part in this expansion of Reformed theology. This new volume by Steve Lawson helps to locate the root of Edwards thinking in his close walk with God. It serves as a powerful reminder that Reformed orthodoxy and Reformed piety belong together, and that to focus on the former at the expense of the latter is not only un-Edwardsean, but also un-biblical."
"The pursuit of a regimented godliness is not unique to Christianity, but it is rare. Unlike popular versions of the Christian faith, Jonathan Edwards did not seek the disciplines of godliness for utilitarian ends, the self-help preoccupation of Western Christianity. He saw conformity to Christ as a means, the only means, to glorify God. Steve Lawson has done a wonderful service, producing in a tactful and pastoral manner Edwards pious resolutions, thereby helping us understand the inner life, the spiritual struggles and goals, of perhaps Americas greatest intellect."
I'm the author/artist and I want to review The Unwavering Resolve of Jonathan Edwards.

I recently attended the annual Indeed.com conference in Austin, Texas — The Human Side of Hiring — to learn the latest labor market data and trends from the world’s leading job-search engine. My key takeaway for job hunters? It’s a prime time to be looking for work, and the electronic tools to find jobs are better than ever.
Indeed’s economists and analysts enjoy access to a goldmine of data — over 90 million resumés, 20 million job postings and 450 million salary data points. To my mind, that information, combined with insights from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, provides the most accurate picture possible of what’s happening in the job market and what to expect in the future.
Look for ways to transfer your skills into a health care or elder care setting. For example, assisted living facilities need receptionists and bookkeepers.
1. Health care occupations continue to experience fiery growth. As I’ve noted in earlier posts, health care jobs are hotter than ever. As the population ages, the demand for health care workers, such as home health care aides, physical therapists and occupational therapists continues to grow.
My tips: There are two ways to tap into the health care market without investing a lot in training: First, look for ways to transfer your skills into a health care or elder care setting. For example, assisted living facilities need receptionists, program directors, bookkeepers and maintenance workers. If you prefer to be outdoors, you might want to take advantage of the projected growth in demand for ambulance drivers.
Second, consider taking a short-term certificate program through your local community college to get quickly certified as an allied health professional such as a phlebotomist, physical therapy aide or pharmacy technician.
2. Information technology (IT) jobs continue to be exceedingly difficult to fill. Like the two Indeed conferences I attended before, the employers I spoke with this time lamented their challenges finding and keeping qualified tech people. That’s no surprise. Seven of Indeed’s Top 10 Jobs of 2017 are in computer science.
My tip: If you’d like to transition into IT, but don’t want to invest the time or money in a computer science degree, consider a short-term coding boot camp instead. In an Indeed survey of over 1,000 HR managers and technical recruiters, a whopping 72 percent said they consider bootcamp grads to be just as prepared, and just as likely to perform at a high level, as computer science grads. Just be aware that bootcamps are not regulated or accredited, so use a resource like Coursereport.com to vet your options before plunking down any money.
One caveat: Tuition isn’t cheap ($5,000 to $21,000, with an average of $11,500) and the training can be rigorous. But the payoff can be substantial.
3. More people are searching for flexible work. According to Indeed’s report, Targeting Today’s Job Seeker, searches for flexible work in the U.S. soared by 58 percent between the end of 2014 and the end of 2016.
Many boomers who want to work past the traditional age of 65 are especially interested in flexible hours and working from home. As of late 2015, 24 percent of employed 55- to 75-year-olds were in alternative work arrangements.
My tip: Search specifically for flexible jobs at aggregator sites. For instance, check out the “Job Type” advanced-search filters on Indeed to look for contract, temporary and part-time positions.
Finally, I wanted to mention a cool Indeed tool for job hunting: Company Reviews. Indeed.com has over 15 million of them, more than any other site. So whether you want to compile a list of potential job targets, research salaries or prep for a job interview, the Company Reviews are a great place to start. You can also post questions about a company’s job interview process and other queries in its Q+A section.
Here’s an example: If you’re interested in working at Costco, you can research its annual salaries (approximately $20,295 for Meat Wrapper; $124,057 for Database Administrator) learn about the company’s generous benefit offerings (even for part-timers) and discover why the chain earns high marks for work-life culture.
My tip: To access the reviews and salary data, simply perform a job search (you can link to reviews from the company page) or go directly to the Best Places to Work page and search from there.

Stein issued a statement announcing his intention to join the lawsuit, saying that Trump is obligated to enforce, not to undermine, federal law.
“I am suing President Trump today for his unlawful and reckless decision to stop payments that help hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians afford health insurance,” Stein said.
Trump said late Thursday that he ordered federal officials to eliminate the subsidies. Republicans argued that the subsidies were illegal because they were enacted as a federal spending obligation without a Congressional appropriation and sued the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. A federal court agreed but the case is now pending on appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
The elimination of the subsidy is effective immediately. Insurers who stop receiving the reimbursements are still obligated by federal law to offer discounted ACA plans to low-income customer as long as the insurers sell ACA policies in a given market.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield, North Carolina’s largest health insurer, said it plans to continue selling ACA policies in 2018. The Durham insurer has asked for a 14.1 percent rate increase for ACA plans in 2018 anticipating that “cost sharing reductions” might be eliminated. The rate increase would offset the financial loss caused by the elimination of the federal subsidy.
Blue Cross is the only insurer offering ACA plans in all 100 North Carolina counties. Cigna, which sells ACA plans in five counties, also said it plans to continue offering ACA plans in 2018.
However, since the subsidy elimination was effective immediately – unless a federal court heeds the AGs’ request and blocks Trump’s decision – the insurers will have no immediate way to recoup the loss of the subsidy through the end of 2017.
NC predicted Trump’s ACA subsidy cut. How will customers fare?

It’s raining today. I always marvel at the way the rain makes everything look. Things are brighter in color. I think of our own colors and how bright they get when we enhance with the flow of love. I am a mother. That seems to be my calling. I have 7 children and I often think this isn’t the end of that bunch. Each one is a different color. Each one is from a different ancestry tree. And each one is powerful in light and love. Under the rain water we probably look brighter and magnificent. I don’t recall observing it the many times we got caught in the rain together. Life happens and I can’t return to those moments I should have cherished when they were younger.
When someone mentions that I am a “really white Puerto Rican” I pause. What does that mean? When did we put colors on race to determine origin? I don’t understand the way folks look at Matt and me and then look at our little girl who is bi-racial and question the authenticity of parenthood. But something I have gathered in my many years on this planet is that society is bounded and restrained by fear of differences. If we don’t fit in a box we are scrutinized. We are getting better, I must say! We are evolving and challenging and questioning everything we have been told. Bravo! There is still a major shift to undergo. Some folks hide their fears behind religion. Others behind politics. And then there are those who have been fractured beyond love in childhood and truly take it out on others. I hate to say it and make excuses but they just don’t know better because they didn’t have better. That simple.
Today, in the rain or in the sunshine…notice your brightness, your uniqueness and love everything you see. Hold those who you fear in light. You might just learn true love and compassion by showing your kindness in moments that feel uncomfortable.
In closing, yesterday I had to run to Goodwill with another car load of house stuff. There was a man with a sign on the corner that read: “Had a heart attack. I need help. Please show me your humanity.” I was deeply moved. “Please show me your humanity.” I got off and hugged him. I got him something to eat. Then I heard the silence in the thank you, the touch, and the humanity in both of us. We shared something beyond words in a few minutes of connection. It happens just like that. I needed him yesterday. I was having a really, really, crappy day. The color of his skin, his origin, his labels didn’t mean a single thing. He was there, ironically helping me get over my own self-pity and crap. He didn’t care about my issues or who I was. He just needed one person to show him that he mattered. Let’s show others our humanity. Let’s do something that is completely out of character and feel good because we shine and brighten like the rain.
Love to all! Have a blessed day!!!!
What touched me was that you forego your inner struggles to help another through their battle. Touching. My son was a baby with a beautiful cinnamon complextion and mine a buff compkextion. I remember a woman said to me that’s not your baby he’s too dark. My son is 38 and never forgot those ignorant words.
He asked to be shown humanity. I was just following instruction and guidance. I think it’s sad how folks judge others based on their appearances. I love you, lady. I have been moving into a new house and also settling into a new position at work. Haven’t caught up with all my favorite bloggers…YOU. I wish you a magical day. Thanks for stopping by.
All the best with your changes. We all need to see better.
Let me add you didn’t have to pause your life in that moment to show him humanity.
As you don’t ever have to pause and show me yours when you do. So thank you for showing me yours always. I love you mucho.
That’s a wonderful story, Mille. It’s so uplifting, those times when we go outside our comfort zone to help others and it’s great that he could help you as you were helping him.
Sorry I haven’t read your blog in a long time. Work has been crazy but I’m trying to get back to reading more regularly. I hope you’ve been well.
Oh, David, thank you for stopping by. I, too, have been incredibly busy. NO need to every apologize. Have a great weekend. Sending mucho love.

The Minnesota Motorcycle Safety Center focuses on four main safety campaigns to urge Minnesota riders and motorists to safely share the road and prevent motorcycle crashes and fatalities.
Motorcycle Training: Riders should take a training course when they first start riding and a course every couple riding seasons to make sure they are the best rider they can be. There are training courses available for beginning to expert riders April through September every year statewide.
Motorcycle Protective Gear: Riders should wear full protective gear every time they ride. That includes a DOT-approved helmet, riding jacket, pants, gloves and boots. Gear should be reflective for high-visibility out on the road.
Motorcycle Awareness: Drivers should always look twice for motorcyclists. Motorcycles are smaller, making speed and distance difficult to judge. Motorists should always safely share the road with motorcyclists and not follow too closely.
Motorcycle Impaired: Riders shouldn't drink and ride. Each year about one third of riders killed had been drinking.
Each campaign has different creative elements available. To request permission to use any of these images, specific files or more information, contact the MMSC Public Information Officer, Megan Leonard, at megan.leonard@state.mn.us.

Brachial plexus injuries leading to brachial palsy, like those that cause cerebral palsy, leave young birth injury victims functionally impaired. Parents are faced with providing their child a lifetime of special care and treatment. A Pennsylvania-based brachial plexus and palsy lawyer and nursing staff from Foley Law Firm with specialized knowledge and experience in birth injury cases can help you establish whether your child’s brachial plexus injury resulted from medical malpractice and take aggressive action to achieve the full compensation you and your family need to provide proper care for your child.
As with Erb’s palsy, brachial palsy results from damage to the brachial plexus—a bundle of nerves running from the spine through the neck and armpit and into the arm. These nerves are a part of the control system for the arm.
Brachial plexus injuries that occur during birth are typically caused by forceps manipulation and other procedures used to deliver babies during difficult births. During a difficult birth, other birth injuries may occur as well. A newborn child’s body is very delicate, and great care must be taken especially when there are complications with the delivery. When a caregiver fails to use sufficient care or performs the extraction improperly, the infant becomes susceptible to injuries that can have lifelong consequences.
If your child has suffered brachial plexus injuries and resulting palsy, your lawyer and registered nurses will investigate whether the caregiver performing the birth used proper birthing techniques. If, during a birth, it becomes evident that a particular technique is not effective, alternatives generally exist. To avoid risk to the infant, a medical caregiver has a duty to use only the safest methods.
Infants who suffer brachial plexus injuries that result in palsy require extensive medical treatment, and their injuries may result in permanent impairment or paralysis of the upper arms. While surgery can be performed to alleviate brachial palsy symptoms in some cases, the risks and costs of surgery to repair the brachial plexus are substantial.
When surgery is not a solution, brachial palsy may limit a child’s ability to interact and develop normally. The expense of ongoing rehabilitation can quickly exhaust insurance coverage and lead to a huge financial burden. Your Pennsylvania-based brachial plexus and palsy lawyer and nursing staff from Foley Law Firm can help you attain the full compensation you need to ensure that your child receives the care he or she needs to have as fulfilling a life as possible.
We are committed to helping malpractice victims and their families achieve justice. To learn more, or to speak with a Pennsylvania brachial plexus and palsy lawyer and nursing staff about your case, please contact a Pennsylvania brachial palsy lawyer at Foley Law Firm today.

We are both priviliged and proud in the Caledonia Golf Club, to play our golf over one of the finest courses in the world.
The Championship Course in Carnoustie has hosted 6 Open Championships, most recently when Padraig Harrington won in 2007, plus countless other local and national tournaments.
Measuring 6941 yards of the White tees, and stretching out to over 7400 yards for the Open Championship, the par 72 layout is said to be the toughest in Britain.
The course begins with a strong par 4 and one of the few blind shots on the course with an approach shot to a sunken green.
The second is a picturesque hole set between the dunes down the right and left of the fairway. Beware with green on the 2nd as it measures 60 yards from front to back which could make a difference as many as 4 clubs in shot selection for the approach.
The third, fourth and fifth holes are medium length par 4s where Jockeys Burn must be successfully avoided if par is to be gained.
The par 5 6th is one of the finest holes in world golf. Named “Hogans Alley”, Hogan made this hole famous in the 1953 Open when he decided to play down the left hand side between the OB fence and the bunkers. Standing on the 570 yard Championship tee, seeing just a slither of fairway you wonder what possessed him!
Such was the great mans accuracy and consistency however, legend has it that in the final round (which in those days were both played on the Saturday) he ended up in his divot from the morning round. Even once the tee shot has been safely negotiated there is more trouble lurking with Jockeys Burn cutting into the middle of the fairway.
The seventh is a medium length par 4, normally played into the wind, where the tee shot must avoid three strategically placed bunkers.
The par 3 eight is marked as SI 18 on the card, however the out of bounds fence is uncomfortably close to a slightly elevated green.
The par 4 9th is a tough test from tee to green. With out of bounds and trees down the left and a small burn down the right the hole demands an accurate tee shot. Needless to say the hole is well guarded by its famous bunkers once again.
On the par 4 tenth, the Barry Burn makes its first meaningful appearance of the round, winding its way round the front of the green.
The 11th hole heads back westerly before the par 5 12th hole offers the golfer a birdie chance before the fierce finish.
Standing on the 14th tee marks the start of the hardest finish in Championship Golf.
The famous spectacle bungers loom large in front of the 14th green, measuring about 10 feet in height. The 15th is no pushover either. Measuring over 450 yards, it is a slight dog left, with a left to right sloping fairway. Even with the tee shot successfully played, you are then left with arguably the hardest approach shot on the course.
Jack Nicklaus once called the par 3 16th the hardest par 3 in golf and it is easy to see why. At 245 yards to an elevated green it is a brute of a hole.
17 and 18 have become infamous over the years for the meltdowns that have occurred in the Open Championship. Who can forget Romero making a triple in 2007, Harrington hitting it in the burn twice on 18, and that’s not even mentioning a certain Frenchman!
Successfully making your way through these two holes in par figures certainly deserves a celebratory drink in the clubhouse!
The Burnside Course in Carnoustie is our second course. Whilst not as long as the Championship Course, it’s tights fairways and small undulating greens more than make up for any lack of yardage.
Used previously for Open Qualifying, the great Ben Hogan qualified over the Burnside Course on his way to winning in 1953.
The Burnside has several holes that would not be out of place on its big brother.
The par 3s are particularly strong on the Burnside and the par 4 17th is one of the hardest holes in Carnoustie. Players have to avoid the infamous Barry Burn with their tee shots as well as their approach shots into a small green.
The Burnside offers a challenge to all skill levels while also being extremely playable and not so hard that it may deter the recreational player.
The Buddon Course in Carnoustie is the youngest of our three courses. Purchases from land owned by the military at Barry Buddon, each hole takes on names of a famous historical battle.
Although seen as the number three course in Carnoustie, much work has been done on the course over the last few years that has seen the Links been greatly improved. The greens in particular are equally as good as anything found on the Championship course and the par 4 7th is statistically the hardest hole in Carnoustie. Measuring at just over 400 yards, the 7th hole is lined by trees on both sides all the way down to the green. Does the golfer be aggressive off the tee with the driver and leave a short iron in, or play safe leaving a longer approach shot?
In 2014 two new holes are scheduled to open on the Buddon. This will see the 9th and 10th hole merge to become a par 5 and will rid the course of the weak opening hole. With the two par 4s measuring over 400 yards, and water a factor in both of them, the new holes will continue to ensure that the Buddon is a challenge for even the strongest of player.

That is a popular saying that has been repeated so many times that we don’t even really know who came up with it. This rings especially true with those who have had significant experiences in life.
Obviously referring to the accumulation of wisdom in life, I am fast realising this too. Oh how I would give to know then what I know now even if my life span has only been a mere 38 years.
There is a difference between intelligence and wisdom. A year-old baby can have traits and characteristics that can indicate intelligence at such a young age. But wisdom is definitely not there.
Wisdom is accumulated by knowledge, experience and age. And that’s why we always see those who are wise tend to be those whose age are a little bit high on the ladder. Older and wiser, they say.
And now the delayed lead to my piece. The government needs to reconsider its recent decision to not continue the services of 156 contractual university professors between the ages of 61 and 70.
In the public university sector where academic and research plays such an important role in the development and growth of the country, we need all the wisdom we can get to help steer it properly.
If at all, the field of academics and research should be the one field that we actually want to encourage the wisest minds to stay on and contribute the wisdom and knowledge they have accumulated.
Just to get the coveted title ‘professor’ or even ‘associate professor’ entails time, effort, dedication and commitment. It’s no wonder, and rightfully so, that most of those who hold these titles are at a particular age.
I don’t deny the fact that fresh and young minds are important too. But again, this is the field of knowledge. We need everything we can get, young or old, but definitely intelligent, knowledgeable and wise.
Also, one of the main reasons for the termination of the contracts, as stated by the National Council of Professors (MPN) chief executive Prof Datuk Dr Raduan Che Rose, is due to the national budget constraints.
And if the country is in dire times, then it would be more of a reason to make sure that the best of Malaysian minds are thinking and discussing on ways to improve the country.
The message that gets across shouldn’t be that after a certain age, an individual stops being useful. Sure there is a retirement age. But the mind doesn’t retire at old age. It is like wine; it gets better with age.
Unless, of course, these professors who are aged between 61 and 70 are expected to bring back the glory days of Malaysian football. That could be a difficult task, considering their age.

In college I spent the summer after my junior year studying abroad in London. For those few months across the pond I fell in love with the city; riding the tube, afternoon pints, late night kebabs, endless weekend markets and Pimm’s cups all soon became a very welcomed new way of life. In between class, an internship and lots of free time, I found myself frequenting a café near my flat that hosted a killer happy hour and an unassuming lunch menu. I soon fell in love with their Crawdaddy Club, which was simply crawfish, greens, avocado and aioli between two slices of grainy, toasted bread, and ever since have been yearning for that same garlicy, shrimpy, avo creamy flavor combo.
Que this spicy-butter-broiled shrimp revamp which is every bit delicious and nostalgic as that Crawdaddy Club a few summers ago. This bomb dot com club is stacked high with spicy shrimp (duh), avocado, pickle, mixed greens, and held together with a tangy, homemade garlic aioli, which pro tip: compliments basically anything. While this was created with the OG Crawdaddy in mind, there were a few tweaks that were added to give it a little pep, kick, a lil pizzazz. The first being the bread, which was swapped from textured and grainy to fluffy, crisp and chewy. Sourdough I’m looking at you. And while avocado brings delicious creaminess to just about any meal (case in point), it needed to be cut with some crunch, specifically Grillo’s Italian Dill Pickles crunch, but obviously any pickle chips will do. Finished with hefty schmears of garlic aioli and over half a pound of flavor-popping-shrimp per sandwich, this is the perfect nosh to get you through all those summer cravings.
Serve with fries / chips and enjoy!

Perrysburg, Ohio---Karit Kitipongpatana (St. Dominic School/Bangkok, Thailand) fired a 5-under 67 to lead the Owens Community College men's golf team to a first place finish in Owens Invitational No. 1 at Belmont Country Club this afternoon.
In addition to Kitipongpatana, Owens finished with the tournament's top four low scores with a 284, which placed them 26 shots ahead of second place Cincinnati State. Columbus State finished in third at 317, while Lakeland finished at 325 to finish in fourth place.
The top four golfers included Kitipongpatana, Will Mullins (St. Bernadette's/Bristol, U.K.) at 1-under 71, Bandit Chaisuk (Phathumthapwittayakarn/Nong Khai, Thailand) at 72 and Harrison Quirk (Wilnecote/Tamworth, U.K.) at 74.
The highest finishing non-Owens golfer was Columbus State's Philip Campisi, who shot a 75 for fifth place.
Dylan Holsclaw (Plainfield/Plainfield, Ill.) tied Columbus State's Colin Dawson for 10th place with a 78. Holsclaw fired a 35 on the front nine.
Dominic DiGiacomo (Ocean City/Ocean City, N.J.) shot a 79 to finish in sole possession of 12th place for Owens, while Wyatt Spalding (Summerfield/Petersburg, Mich.) shot an 80 to tie three others for 13th place.
Three others also participated for Owens including Zach Doom (Mason/Erie, Mich.), who finished tied for 16th with an 81, Brett Menser (Tipp City/Tipp City, Ohio), who had an 84 to tie for 21st place and Travis Focht (Oak Harbor/Oak Harbor, Ohio), who shot a 91 and finished in 28th place.
Owens, who previously clinched the 2016 Ohio Community College Athletic Conference (OCCAC) championship, strengthened its hold on first place in the conference with the win. They will host the season's final conference tournament at Belmont tomorrow beginning at 10:30 a.m.
Mullins remains in first place in the conference standings, while Kitipongpatana's 67 has vaulted him into second place heading into tomorrow. Furthermore, Chaisuk's 72 now has him positioned in the top five.
Owens has now won six of the seven conference tournaments so far this spring. Today's 284 easily sets a new season-low as a team, besting their two 292s on April 16 and 17 in Columbus.
Today's 284 was also the team's lowest score since a round of 277 on April 9, 2014 at the Trine Invitational.
Tomorrow's tournament will be the final home and conference tournament for the Owens men's golf program after the college announced the suspension of the program beginning next season.

I applied the latest update to Ostfront 4.12 to be played with PanzerCOrps 1.22. Now everything is back in the German language. How can I change it back to English?
Click in Main Menu from Ostfront on the english Flag at the bottom from the screen/Menu!
I did click on the English flag on the main menu. But when I select New Game, the campaign/scenario menu is all in German. Spielen vs play, zuruck zu menu vs back to menu. I understand enough German with the help of the Bing translator to know what to do, but everything was in English before I applied the 1.22 patch.

Do you mean this Patch from HERE , right?
And yes, I found the mistake, problem solved! In the "data" folder from the above patch there was the german language "strings.pzdat" file instead the english one. My fault, sorry!
I´ve upload a new version of the patch! Please delete the old Patch from your HD and download the new one from above Link!

Another option is just to replace "strings.pzdat" file in v 1.21 mod (229 Kb 20/08/2013) by same file from Ostfront v 1.20 mod (197 Kb 18/06/2013).
Without it it does not work indeed, it stays in German language.
I am using Pz Korps version 1.31.

Choosing a climbing plant. Climbing plants are usually container-grown, though sometimes they are sold as naked-root crops. Select a wholesome trying plant with a superb framework of both established stems and new shoots. Turn the pot over, and check to see if there are any younger roots growing out of the holes in the bottom. If so, because of this the plant is effectively-rooted. Reject any plant that is potbound (meaning you’ll be able to’t easily remove it from the pot).
Water your potted herbs! Hold potted herbs well watered, however don’t over-water, which is a typical mistake. Sage, thyme, rosemary and tarragon aren’t that bothered by a somewhat dry surroundings. However, mint, chives and parsley require constant moisture. Be sure that the container has ample drainage holes, and place a layer of gravel within the base of the pot as a drainage layer. This ensures that the water does not circulate straight out.
A very good tip of what to plant within the backyard is to plant excessive-value crops. Worth is a subjective term, but plant the things which might be most costly to purchase, as long as they’re suited to the local weather. The entire garden doesn’t must be devoted to this, but if an area is earmarked for this type of crop, it will possibly lower your expenses within the coming season when costs are sky excessive for sure crops.
Consider constructing raised beds. In the event you build your personal raised beds, you’ll be able to select the proper dimension to your backyard, and you may fill it with a kind of soil that’s appropriate for what you intend to grow. Since there will likely be little soil compaction, there will probably be extra oxygen within the soil, and water drainage shall be much better. The soil in a raised bed warms up a lot earlier in the spring, rising the rising season.
Discovering one of the best gardening info can be time consuming.
Use biennials and annuals so as to add shade to your flower beds. The annuals and biennials are often fast growing as a result of they only final one season, and this may let you change the garden every season for a nice change of tempo. They’re very helpful for filling in the gaps between perennials and shrubs in a sunny space. Some examples include sunflowers, marigolds, petunias, hollyhocks, cosmos, and rudbeckia.
Divide massive clumps of perennials. Some perennial crops lose vigor and flower much less effectively if the clump becomes too giant. Crops like Shasta daisies, bearded irises, phlox, chrysanthemum and coneflower benefit from being divided each three years. With out division they turn out to be congested, and the center of the clump will begin to die out. Simply dig the complete plant out, holding the basis ball intact, and divide it into items using a shovel. By doing this, you should have at least two or three new crops!
If you find yourself able to mulch, select an organic mulch. Cocoa hulls or weed-free straw are great examples. The mulch will ultimately decompose and add rich, natural nutrients to your soil. Just add a few inches to your backyard every year and you will see the long-term benefits. Compost might be very helpful once you resolve to grow a backyard organically, yet lots of people don’t know what compost is made up of. Compost is made up of issues like previous produce scraps, leaves, twigs, grass clippings and wood-chips which have broken down into one thing similar to soil in texture. This rich combination is far superior to chemical fertilizers.
Discover ways to trim your crops. Not all crops require trimming, however in the event you discover unhealthy stems, trimming a plant can help you get rid of a illness or no less than slow it down long sufficient so that you can cure your plant. Don’t cut too many stems and leaves: lower solely the unhealthy components. Properly, you’ve got decided to enter into gardening. Pretty, thrilling, huh? Effectively, except for the fact that there is so much data that you don’t have any clue the place to even start! Do not be afraid, gardening ideas are here! Listed beneath are some ideas that can show you how to get started and arranged in an effort to change into a successful gardener.
This manner, your seeds are well-hydrated and might begin growing with a head start. The seeds will then have a higher probability at lasting and blossoming.

The roundel first appeared on Underground station platforms in 1908. The bar and circle, as it became known, comprised a solid red enamel disc and horizontal blue bar. These early roundels, framed with timber mouldings, were introduced as station nameboards. The new device gave prominence to the name of the station, and helped passengers distinguish it from surrounding commercial advertising.
Travelling around London, it is impossible to miss the iconic ’roundel’ in its various forms (there are different versions for the Underground, buses, and Overground among others). As is typical with most things in London, the history of the symbol is long and rich.

In a world in which science is able to create artificial intelligences that simplify human life – it is the example of INVICTUS , the first algorithm that computes perfect predictions – mathematics has made its way into a central role. David Sumpter is among the first to believe and to defend the predictive power of numbers and has decided today to share his story with us.
My name is David Sumpter and I am a professor of applied mathematics at the University of Uppsala, Sweden. Like any self-respecting mathematician, I never loved the risk, so I never thought of becoming a bettor. At least until September of last year.
I have lived in Manchester for a long time and I have often seen several greyhound races. Once I even occupied a place at the Aintree to participate in the Gran National, the famous horse race of the English tradition but, despite this, I never intended to focus on an animal with the harness, nor have I ever claimed to exceed the threshold which divides the opening of an online account from leaving the card data to bookies.
At the time I went to several friends who spent most of their time betting on every kind of sport. They knew how to convince me to accompany them to the meetings, but they never managed to get me a penny on an event. I admit that I was fascinated by their way of following the games. It exists as an extra dimension, an alternative reality to the sporting encounter that only knows who is used to betting. A cryptic world with its own rules and physical laws, mechanisms and formulas still obscure to man. This awareness has crept into me the doubt that they were principles that could be studied and applied to our advantage. A suspicion, which soon, would have changed me forever.
Now I’m David Sumpter , a professor of mathematics at the University of Uppsala, in Sweden. And a bettor.
I spent the summer of 2015 working on my ” Soccermatics “, a book that aims to bring two apparently very distant worlds: mathematics and football . When I finished writing, before sending the final draft to my publisher, I felt compelled to explore the world I had planned to study: I would have applied everything I knew about mathematics and statistics to football and I would have done it by betting. I had made up my mind to beat the bookies using the numbers, the same numbers that I had elaborated in my book. Simple.
During the first half of 2015, in the heart of the Premier League season, I developed some mathematical models that were able to predict the outcome of the matches of that league, better than they could at the time make the odds of bookmakers. I have tested several models, some have worked better than others. After not much I started making money. Starting from an initial capital of 400 pounds, at the end of November I managed, with the statistics, to take home 108.33. I obtained a 27% return in just two months from the beginning of the test.
To understand how mathematics helped me to beat bookies, it is important to take a step back and start from the basics. For the inexperienced I want to clarify that it is quite normal to feel threatened both by calculations and by online betting. To many bookies may seem dark places where it is not easy to get oriented. The network, in particular, is populated by an exaggerated number of bookmakers who all offer the same thing: a free initial bonus and a vast amount of games, from classic cards to the most complicated – the Asian handicap, the under / over, and so on. I appeal to all the new bettors: do not panic , even mathematics seem difficult, but it can be a compass that will guide you to victory. It’s an uphill road, of course, but the view from the top is wonderful.
The most important thing I learned from my experiments is that betting using math is quite inconvenient. This is why we created different artificial intelligences to increase win rates through algorithm betting and that lighten the process and calculate valuable games to bet on (an example is INVICTUS , an algorithm able to exploit the mathematical models to predict the results of the sports matches). Mathematics and football are more like we can think: you have to get your hands dirty when you practice them, get yourself involved to really understand how it works. You must dive into the calculations to process the correct analyzes.
I once studied an organism, a type of mold, that produced identical triangular nets to transport food within its own body. Studying football I discovered that Barcelona’s way of playing was absolutely similar from a geometrical point of view. When I discovered it, I downloaded many videos of Barcelona 2010-11. From a mathematical point of view, that formation played perfect football. I understood that their basic rule was: if you want to attack in a central way, you have to stand as much as possible in the opponent’s penalty area, going to create a space through the meshes of defense. At the same time, Barcelona was drawing a kind of triangular net on the pitch. Within that triangle, they could move the ball back and forth as they pleased.
Mathematics, despite its limitations, offers objective parameters for sports considerations, our algorithm betting structure will continue to prove itself. In the world of football the variables to be managed are many, but once the right formulas are framed and the right models, the results are remarkable. I relied on maths, models, science and applied them to betting. The result is that I got a 200% return.
Now I hope football betting can become a way to bring back interest in mathematics, that fascinating predictive science from which many are tempted to escape but that many advanced technologies are already using to change the rules of the game.

Every week we hear in the news about unprecedented storms, heatwaves, floods, and droughts. The early effects of climate change are clear to see and are impacting the lives of millions.
We must do more to reverse this trend, and the oweness is on everyone.
Now is the time to clean up your act.
You can choose a cleaner, healthier, more sustainable future and switch to a clean energy supplier in the time it takes to make a cup of tea.
When it comes to switching to a green energy supplier there is an overwhelming amount of misinformation out there.
It is generally believed that switching to a renewable energy supplier is a complicated and long winded affair, as well as being more expensive.
Choosing to switch to a clean energy supplier is the simplest, easiest way for everyone to have a positive impact on the environment. Additionally clean energy tariffs are often the cheapest on the market.
Online comparison web sites like USwitch can help you choose the best deal for you.
In this blog we look at what renewable energy actually is, we separate the facts from the fiction and we look at the short and long term benefits when you Clean Up Your Act.
Renewable energy sources are those which are being constantly replenished by the natural environment. Common examples are solar power, wind power, and hydro power. Unlike fossil fuels such as coal and oil, these energy sources do not emit greenhouse gases which cause climate change. Furthermore, it is much easier for local communities to start generating their own renewable energy than it was in the past, putting greater control in the hands of local people.
What is the fuel mix of your electricity supply?
We all have a personal responsibility for climate change. Not everyone can have solar panels on their roof or afford an electric car, but everyone can make a positive choice about where their home energy comes from.
Today, with the continued research and advancement in the field of renewable energy, grids powered in part or fully by renewable sources are typically as reliable as those using standard power generation.
The sun delivers more energy to Earth in one hour than humanity consumes over the course of a year.
In order to power the entire earth on renewable energy, we would need to install solar panels on over 191,000 square miles. Considering there are over 57 million square miles of land on earth, this is a very achievable goal, if we have the willpower.
So why hasn’t everybody switched to renewable energy?
Here are some of the most common misunderstandings about green energy.
The short term benefits are clear!
As for the short term benefits undoubtedly the most obvious one highlighted in this blog is the positive impact that just one small action can have on the planet.
Furthermore, it is clear that switching to a green energy supplier doesn’t have to break the bank. In fact it will actually save you money!
The most important thing to remember is that as consumers we have the power to influence energy companies to provide more renewable energy. What you do today can make a difference.
Working together we can affect positive change in the world with actions instead of just words.
Don’t put it off until tomorrow, Clean Up Your Act and encourage others to do the same.

“Interest based learning, is a natural based resource that motivates learning. Often when kids aren’t engaged in school, they will come home and be interested in other things, like music. That gets them learning about different instruments on their own. Also electronics, physics of sound, engineering and connects them with alot of other people and peers. Finding your own interests will really motivate yourself.
Seeing other people with many interests, and having people that can help them build your interests, really motivates learning. Often you see these interests happen after school, it is important to see more schools bring in this idea of passion or interests. Some research critiques right now are that people think interests are an individual thing. Yet peers, family and other people come in when they share their interests, and you can see what other people are doing. This can really inspire you.
If you have a relationship with someone, and their interest in something you share, you have a relationship to that topic even if you didnt before. The idea that interests is an individual thing, but seeing what people around you are interested in can inspire you.
It doesn’t have to be one area, sometimes it can be a process or idea or helping someone that can be motivation for a project.
Finding motivation will take you through the process that will help you though.
The discussion I want to highlight starts at 17:30.

Q: Does the Devil have creative powers? Does the enemy Satan have no powers to cause infirmities and the like? Yet in the Book of Job it seems like Satan has the power to cause storms or cause armies to go out and kill people, can you help me on this?
A: I think, first of all, that it is Satan inciting God. “Though you incited me against him,” against Job, “to ruin him without any reason” (Job 2:3)* is the retort of God when Satan appears again in chapter 2. This is by the power of God.
Certainly Satan can take the Sabeans or the Chaldeans and tempt them. We are well aware that Satan has the power to sit on our shoulders, whisper into our ears and tempt us to do all kinds of things. It is not the physical ear, but the ear of the mind. There is mind to mind communication that takes place. We do not know how that works anymore that we can explain how the mind can cause the physical synapses of the brain to fire; however, it is biblically incontrovertible that temptation through mind to mind communication takes place.
What’s going on here in the Book of Job is that God is permitting Satan to do what he’s doing.
