Gymnastics is one of the many recreational activities for both military and civilian families offered by the Kadena Youth Center, located at Kadena Air Base, the USA’s largest combat wing of the U.S. Air Force. Kadena is one of 11 military bases in Okinawa, Japan, the largest in the Rkukyu island chain at roughly 877 square miles that is just over two-thirds the size of the state of Rhode Island. To give some perspective, Okinawa Island sits some 1,300 miles south of Tokyo, Japan, and approximately 430 miles off the eastern coast of Taiwan. More than 40,000 American troops call the island home.
Known as the Typhoon Twisters, the gymnastics program offers classes at the pre-school level and currently go through Level 5 and up.
With gym time a scarce commodity, the different levels practice together and because of the lack of gym space, each girl is restricted to just five hours of training a week. It’s a sharp contrast to the 15-20 hours that most of the girls put in at their gyms back home in the United States.
The Okinawa gym has 10 coaches, led by head coach Cathy Kiser. Kiser says the main goal is to safely teach the fundamental skills of gymnastics and develop skills the kids can take into their everyday life. The skill levels vary greatly, from students getting a feel for the sport for the first time to athletes with competitive aspirations.
While some of the girls plan to join a gym when they return to the U.S. and hope to compete at elite levels, their return could be years away. The average military tour in Okinawa is three years, though it can vary depending on the branch. Some families even extend their time and have stayed on the island for six to eight years. Thus, USA Gymnastics Okinawa works to train gymnasts to keep up with their mainland counterparts but with considerably limited resources.
"I saw a lot of talent at the gym going nowhere and felt like we needed to do more," said Kiser. "Teylana Hill is one of the most talented gymnasts in the gym, yet she had never had an opportunity to be a USA Gymnastics athlete. Her talent was just sitting here. She was learning skills and continuing on the climb to be the best, but she and the other girls needed more."
There are gymnastics competitions in the capital city, Naha, Okinawa, but the U.S. gymnasts are only allowed to compete twice with the Japanese teams due to International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) rules, and even when competing, they cannot receive awards. That is why a meet held on the base last year was so special.
The coaches, with the help of USA Gymnastics judge Beth Keller, held a meet at the Kadena Youth Center gym for 11 of the girls from Levels 5-7.
For three of the competing girls, this was their first competition. To help stage the meet, Keller gathered donations from companies and gym clubs across the United States. A-1 Awards donated medals, while USA Sports Productions donated ribbons for each event. Robin Kirsch, a close friend of Keller’s, donated over 40 leotards to the military families who couldn’t afford their own. Mary Roth provided music for their floor routines. USA Gymnastics provided posters, pins and educational materials to help support the girls’ continued progress.
"I thought after 38 years of judging that I would just be doing another nice little meet, but was I ever wrong," said Keller. "I walked into the Kadena Youth Center and immediately felt the excitement, nervousness and complete joy of all the gymnasts, parents, and coaches."
Keller, whose stepdaughter, son-in-law, and three grandchildren have been on the base for nearly three years, was there for a week to visit her family and help judge the event.
"I didn’t stop smiling the whole meet," said Keller. "The parents clapped for every routine, every completed trick and every score put up. We even had parents and kids watching who didn’t even have gymnasts in the meet. But afterwards, they told me how much motivation this has given their daughter."
The Typhoon Twisters and their families were thrilled for this opportunity, not just because of the awards and the medals, but also because it was a small part of home reaching out across the Pacific. The donations, the judging, the recognition for their hard work, despite their distance, meant they were not forgotten.
As one mom put it, "The generosity was overpowering."
"How do you thank complete strangers, 10,000 miles away, for loving your kid," wrote Marci Hyla in an email to Keller, referring to the donations made to make the meet possible. "Our daughters live a transient life, due to their parents’ active duty service in the military. The hardest and saddest part is being uprooted every 2-3 years from their gym and team, starting over in a new duty station.
"So, what did it mean to them to know that their family of gymnastics in the States remembers them and cares that they are here?" continued Hyla. "Everything. They have sacrificed so much for a life they were born into and didn’t choose, but they are amazing and remarkable, and we are so proud of them."
While many of them are eager to return to the States and continue competing, they are also hopeful to continue the long distance connection they felt during their inaugural meet last spring. Since that time, other opportunities have opened up to the Typhoon Twisters. Through donations and fundraising, eight of the girls traveled to Kailua, Hawaii, in January and competed in the 38th Aloha Gymfest.
"It was an awesome experience for all involved," said Kiser. "We all learned so much. Gymnasts came from all over the country. We got to see talent from a wide-range of beginners to seasoned gymnasts. It was really a great experience! We would like to return in 2015, so we have a lot of work to do."
After becoming a registered business with USA Gymnastics in December 2012, the Typhoon Twisters have started a Facebook page with pictures and excerpts about the goings-on at their gym: USA Gymnastics Okinawa. To contact the gym or follow their progress, visit facebook.com/USAGymnasticsOkinawa.

A reader called today to suggest we investigate some of the ramifications of a new cyber-bullying law aimed at the transmission of disturbing images.
One reading of the law — made popular over the last week by bloggers and Internet freedom groups — is that it is written so broadly that it could be used to prosecute anyone who publishes an image online that someone else finds disturbing.
But one guy left us an anonymous voice mail this morning to tell us that he and a friend of his are fans of the new law. Apparently they’ve seen a few things online that they found upsetting. Listen below.

If you are looking for any partner from foreign countries and you are not really too sure about what really it takes to locate a real person, then dating overseas ladies can be not such a bad idea. Of course there are still several things you have to keep at heart before you even head out on your initial time with that overseas lady.
One thing that you have to carry out when you are seeing someone by overseas should be to make sure that this wounderful woman has an English-speaking capability. If she wouldn’t, then you could have difficulties conversing to her and that could end up bringing about trouble inside the relationship. This is because in the event you get to know her properly, you can expect to realize that a female who has a bad or non-English-speaking ability is just going to always be difficult to relate with and might not be as suitable as a gal who can speak English fluently.
Another difficulty that you might encounter in dating overseas ladies is the language barriers. Some people have trouble of convinced that a girl is only with you since she addresses the same language as you do. This could be true to some extent nonetheless it will never be the truth all the time. Naturally , it is very hard to think of a female who converse the same terminology as you. You must always remember that language is only a tool designed for communication but it must not be treated as the only reason why you will be dating a particular gal.
When you are online dating a foreign females, you might also realize that her persona is something which makes you interested in her. This can be the case particularly if she has a powerful personality which may https://mailorderbridecomparison.com be viewed through her clothes and her personal items. If perhaps she dresses well, you might find that it is a primary reason why you fell in love with http://isjprep.idahostatejournal.com/2019/09/07/swift-secrets-of-oriental-mail-order-brides-around-the-uk/ her in the first place.
Not what that you have to make is that make an attempt to make a good impression on her. It might sound ridiculous at first however it is just one of the techniques that women use to make sure that a guy is not just using her to fulfill his sexual demands and that he is normally showing some great qualities to her.
Girls from other countries happen to be known to be more cultured than their counterparts. This means that they understand how to treat a guy better than what we could in our own personal countries. Simply because know how to deal with men better, they will be able to discover how to treat you too.

TWI Industrial Member Report Summary 338/1987
By D J Smith, G A Webster and P J Webster
The usefulness of the neutron diffraction technique to measure residual stresses nondestructively has been examined. Earlier residual stress studies using the neutron diffraction technique concentrated on establishing the validity of the method by comparison with established mechanical techniques. In the present investigation, these earlier studies have been extended to consider not only the residual field but also the prior deformation history. This report presents results from a programme of work undertaken to measure the effect of prior plastic deformation on the neutron diffraction characteristics of an aluminium alloy and A533B steel. The neutron diffraction method was also used to obtain the three-dimensional residual stress distribution in an aluminium alloy weld. Finally a destructive 'layering' method was applied to the weld to provide a means of direct comparison.


If you have a big space in your life and you want to burn both wood and solid fuel, then the Woody is the one for you. This stove allows you to reduce emissions and breath cleaner air; you have the choice of the fuel that you choose. Generously proportioned, still slim, efficient, clean burning and quietly, modestly, magnificent.
To achieve lower emissions this penguin uses a combination of three features. Secondary heat retaining glazing, so the fire box stays hotter. Re-designed combustion air nozzles diffuse the incoming oxygen, allowing for a more complete combustion. Lastly the flow of air going toward the flue is interrupted. This increases the dwell time in the fire chamber, again contributing to more complete combustion.
The Woody Eco (Multi Fuel) is 83% efficient on wood and 87% efficient on anthracite, with similar particulate emissions, well within the 2022 Ecodesign requirements.
Like its eco brother, this stove also has secondary heat retaining glazing, with air wash and a landscape view of the fire. It also has the new Chilli Penguin handle.

Legislators this week are expressing outrage over the death of 4-year-old Eric Dean and called for new laws to prevent future child protection failures.
A story in Sunday’s Star Tribune described how Pope County in western Minnesota received 15 maltreatment reports about Eric before he died in February 2013. Many of those reports came from Eric’s day-care providers and teachers, who warned the county’s child-protection unit that his stepmother was likely responsible for his recurring bite marks and bruises, but watched as the abuse continued.
“There should be hearings on this,” said Rep. Tina Liebling, DFL-Rochester, chairwoman of the House Health and Human Services Policy Committee. “The whole thing was shocking.”
Sen. Kathy Sheran, DFL-Mankato, chairwoman of the Senate Health, Human Services and Housing Committee, said she would support calls for hearings into how to improve child protection. She said what happened to Eric showed “there must be something terribly flawed in the system.”
Sen. Torrey Westrom, a Republican who represents the area where Eric lived, said he’s heard from numerous constituents who are angry about how the case was handled. He said he will work with other legislators to draft laws in the upcoming session that he hopes will better protect vulnerable children.
“We need to prevent this from ever happening again,” said Westrom, who is running for Congress in Minnesota’s Seventh District.
One of his focuses will be to require that counties give more scrutiny to repeated abuse reports, Westrom said. Currently, the Department of Human Services (DHS) recommends that counties not consider prior abuse reports when deciding how to handle new ones that come in.
“That defies common sense,” Westrom said.
Erin Sullivan Sutton, DHS’s assistant commissioner for children and family services, said the agency will work with legislators on a proposal that will allow child-protection workers to review prior history when new abuse reports are made.
She called Eric’s death “a tragedy that should not have happened.”
Sullivan Sutton said her agency will also “thoroughly review the death” and share its findings with Pope County staff.
Westrom also wants to make sure that counties share abuse reports with law enforcement. State law requires that, but records show that Starbuck police were notified of only one of Eric’s abuse reports before he was killed.
Sharing that information, he said, “in itself may have avoided this outcome.”
In a statement Wednesday, Pope County Coordinator Jim Thoreen said the county regrets “that we couldn’t do more.”
“Because of his case, our social workers and management staff continue to re-examine the way we handle cases like his,” Thoreen said. “But we also know this: Abusive caregivers, uncooperative family members and investigations after the fact all combine to make our work to protect vulnerable children a difficult, heartbreaking and very often imperfect job. Even facing that unpleasant reality, we hope to serve abused children better in the future than we were able to serve Eric Dean.”
Thoreen said he hoped the Star Tribune report “is a bellwether for changes that need to be implemented.”
Pope County board chair Cody Rogahn echoed the need to re-evaluate the child protection system.
“This isn’t just a Pope County issue,” he said. “This is a statewide, even a nationwide issue.”
While Liebling’s committee oversees DHS, she said another committee chaired by Rep. Joe Mullery, DFL-Minneapolis, likely has oversight of child-protection issues. Liebling said that if Mullery did not want to call for a hearing on the issue, she would.
Mullery could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

No place for National Conservation Zones in UP and Delhi master plans
the profile of an area. They often bring in their wake office development, better residential stock and infrastructure. Take a look at the mall cluster near Vasant Kunj, located on Nelson Mandela Marg that has DLF Promenade, Emporio and Ambience malls. The advent of upscale malls in this otherwise middle class locality of Vasant Kunj was followed by offices. The area soon turned into a corporate block with several companies like ONGC, Bharti Airtel Limited and Maruti Limited opening their offices. The residential market undoubtedly benefited with capital values in Vasant Kunj moving up from ₹ 8,000 to ₹ 9,000 per sq ft in 2007 to their current levels at ₹ 12,500 per sq ft to ₹ 13,750 per sq ft.
The other way in which malls help improve a locality is that they pave the way for creation of new infrastructure. Areas with desolate roads and absent civic amenities get transformed into places buzzing with activity. Pacific mall’s story is interesting as the Pacific group approached a very ‘untouchable’ part of west Delhi. When they came to the lacklustre Subhash Nagar area, they knew they were filling in a gaping hole and doing wonders to the profile of this small trader-dominated locality. What of course helped was that the mall was on the metro corridor and well connected to other parts of west delhi and Dwarka.
According to Ashwini Sharma, a resident of Tilak Nagar, the Subhash Nagar mall convenience value and is a nuisance also at time. “The hypermarkets are great because we get everything for our daily needs over here. However, the traffic congestion around the mall makes our life miserable. It takes at least 15 minutes just to cross the mall by car on weekdays in evenings. on holidays it takes more than 30 minutes, he says.
Haryana, UP and Delhi have been in denial mode when it comes to the National Conservation Zone (NCZ) provision of the Regional Plan 2021, which was published in 2005. Since then, two master plans of Gurgaon, Haryana have by and large given NCZ a miss. The Gurgaon 2021 Master Plan, notified in 2007, and the Gurgaon 2025 Master Plan, notified in 2010, did not have any provisions for NCZ.
Finally, however, Gurgaon 2031, finalised in 2012, did show Aravalli areas as NCZ in the landuse map, but included an exception clause whereby a section of the hills in the urbanisable area were to be excluded from NCZ. What the left hand had given, the right hand had taken away.
After inserting an exception clause in the Gurgaon 2031 Master Plan in 2012, the Haryana government in 2013 demanded that the restriction on construction of 0.5% be deleted. When that did not materialise, they proposed detailing of NCZ. The intent behind this became apparent when in the first round of detailing in October 2014, the Gurgaon administration claimed that there were only about 600 hectares of NCZ in the district, as against the 20,000 plus hectare identified as NCZ in Gurgaon by the National Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB). This was because the Aravalli hills had been excluded. This has now been rectified by up to around 15,000 hectare by including the hills. An agreement to finally identify foothills and paleo channels may increase the NCZ by about another 500-1000 hectare in the Gurgaon district, says Chetan Agarwal, an environment analyst.
“If water bodies such as ghata jheel or lake (low lying area that should have been zoned as NCZ and not as a residential sector), Basai wetlands, Najafgarh jheel ( recorded as privately owned agriculture in revenue records), paleo-water channels (old nullahs), and foothills had been included in the NCZ, along with Aravallis and forests, and the NCZ actually been notified in 2005, then the ecological face of Gurgaon would have been very different. This step is better late than never and conserving them will definitely moderate the intensity of flooding during the monsoons and increase recharge of the water table,” says Agarwal.
As for other parts of NCR, Manoj Misra of Manoj Misra, head of Yamuna Jiye Abhiyaan, says that the topography of these areas is different from Gurgaon. They may not have foothills like in Gurgaon but they have storm water drains and wetlands.
Akash Vashist, another environment activist, alleges that large parcels of community land such as ponds, lakes, reservoirs and wetlands had been sold for residential use. In response to different RTIs filed by him, he was informed that there were over 900 ponds i n Greater Noida, about 900 wetlands and 10-odd storm water drains in Ghaziabad, Noida and Greater Noida. City forests designated in the master plans had been encroached upon and even partially sold off, but no natural conservation zones had been marked out. “Delineating these as NCZ will give them additional protection,” he adds. Continued from page 01
Malls help improve the profile of an area and lead to construction of better residential stock and infrastructure.
Conserving the Aravallis and water bodies in Gurgaon will lessen the intensity of flooding during the monsoons.


OK02.1 Opening Keynote: ENLIGHTEN YOUR DESIGNS WITH PHOTONIC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
Luc Augustin, SMART Photonics, Netherlands
The field of integrated photonics holds great promise for overcoming societal challenges in data and telecom, autonomous driving and healthcare in terms of cost, performance, and scalability. Similar to the semiconductor industry, the ever-increasing demands of various applications are driving the necessity for platform integration in photonics as well, enabling seamless integration of diverse functionalities into compact and efficient photonic devices. This high level of integration reduces footprint and drives down system level costs. In this trend towards high levels of integration , Indium Phosphide (InP) is the material of choice for long-distance communication lasers, owing to its proven track record over several decades. Leveraging standardized fabrication processes, the cost and performance targets can be addressed. The key advantages of InP-based integration lie in its ability to fully integrate lasers, amplifiers, modulators, and passives, providing a flexible and reliable platform for building complex Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs). This paper will address the photonic integration platforms, the applicability to current and future markets requiring the need for further heterogenous integration with other technologies, and the change to a foundry business model, much like its electronics counterpart.
Luc Augustin received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Eindhoven University of Technology. He is the CTO of SMART Photonics, where he is responsible for the technology roadmap, strategy and R&D. His expertise is in photonics, fabrication and characterisation of InP photonic integrated circuits. Prior to SMART he worked at Solland Solar, Philips Research and Cedova, where he always has been active in the development, pilot production and optimization of innovative technologies.
End of 2023 Luc is appointed as part-time Associate Professor at TU/e Eindhoven. His area of research is large scale integration of PICs.
He is board member of the IEEE Photonics Benelux chapter, member of the JePPIX steering committee, and member of the Board of Stakeholders of Photonics21.

History of the Museum
The Museum of Photographic Arts is a photography museum that lies in the historic area of Balboa Park, San Diego. First founded in 1974, The Museum of Photographic Arts is only one of three museums in the United States dedicated exclusively to the collection and preservation of photography. The Museum of Photographic Arts has a written mission to inspire, educate, and engage the broadest possible audience through presentation, collection, and preservation of photography, film, and video.
Over the years, The Museum of Photographic Arts has collected thousands of photographs that currently are on display in the museum’s permanent collection. These photographs range in history, but generally cover every year since the invention of the photograph. These collections include some of the most influential photographers, including a donation from film maker Lou Stoumen’s estate, as well as the entire Nagasaki Journey: The Photographs of Yosuke Yamahata, August 10, 1945.
Museum Expansion & Tours
The museum has also been renovated in 2001, which expanded the gallery space and added a classroom, theatre, and a print viewing room, along with a twenty thousand volume library. The museum offers a wide range of self-guided and guided tours through their collections. The self-guided tour leads guests through the gallery space directed by small placards that aim to educate people of all ages and abilities about each exhibit. The guided tours offer a more structured approach as a Museum of Photographic Arts tour guide leads guests through the gallery space and allow guest to discover first and then ask questions.
The Museum of Photographic Arts also offers a behind the scenes tour option that shows an exclusive look at the internal operations of the museum. This tour leads guests through the galleries, libraries, and curatorial workshops rather than focusing on specific collections or specific exhibitions.
The gallery also runs pay as you wish days, in which guests can make a voluntary contribution instead of paying the admission price to enter. This allows the gallery to be open to a wider range of guests and educate even those unable to pay normal admission rates.

It’s been a while since my last “serious” engraving project and I needed something to practice on. Recently I ordered a cheap watch from Mini In The Box specially for this purpose. On the site it was said that the case is made from stainless steel, but unfortunately it isn’t. It is some kind of soft alloy, probably pewter, and very soft. Which also means that it doesn’t take on very fine detail. Fortunately it wasn’t too bad either.
As this wasn’t too serious project and I didn’t want to spend much time on it, I drew the design directly on the watch using China White (fancy name for white watercolor) and 0.3mm pencil. Usually I take the contours for the design and then draw the scrollwork “offline” on the paper. Here are the main backbones drawn.
Bottom part contours are completed and shading is started.
Bottom completely done, top part background is cut away.
Looks quite good on the wrist, doesn’t it?
This watch has also quite large sides and bevel. Maybe at some point will engrave these too.

Really stunning! Bravo!
Dude, this is incredible!
I’m thinking of starting on a couple of designs – I will definitely be keeping this in mind!
Looks great..you should start selling these online with a better movement and watch name
Yes, that is the plan. I have one watch waiting in the drawer even now.
I’m curious how you do this. Are you using a device to push around something like a chisel? How do you “shade” the metal? Is it an oxide layer?
I’ve been playing with using an electric engraving pen (wen 12c) but I’d love to know how to get such beautiful smooth lines.
You can check out the first “Sharpening” video from here http://www.viljomarrandi.com/video/, that should explain quite well how the process goes.
Hope that helps.

As most of you know by now (if not, 20-year-old spoiler alert!), one of the biggest surprises in the film occurs when then-Green Bay Packer quarterback Brett Favre appears as Mary’s ex-boyfriend, dying to get back together with her.
While his NFL MVP and Superbowl rings were certainly nice, the cameo made Favre a household name (and a huge crush of mine despite my Bears-loving dad’s disapproval).
As far as PR moves in sports, it was a touchdown.
Well, the Packers have done it again. And this time, their promotional stunt will result in new female fans.
DON’T READ BELOW THIS LINE UNLESS YOU WANT A PITCH PERFECT 2 SPOILER
About a third of the way into Pitch Perfect 2 (better than the first one, by the way!), the protagonists of the film – the Bellas – enter into a “sing off” of sorts with some rival acapella groups. Among those groups are some familiar faces from the first film as well as the new “big villains” of the sequel. And…to my surprise…the Green Bay Packers.
Yes, five members of the Packers – including fan favorite Clay Matthews – actually bust out both dance moves and songs in the film. They really go for the laughs – and score.
Being a huge NFL fan, I thought it was hilarious. And being in PR, I thought it was brilliant – much like that Favre cameo back when I was in high school.
And, methinks there will be measurable results from this move. Of the 300-plus females in the audience at my showing alone, I heard a few dozen talking about “those hot Packer guys” after (and during) the movie. Multiple that by the millions of girls/tween/teens/women that saw or plan to see the movie (it’s already grossed well over $100 million), and the Packers may have doubled their female fan base.

Used-parts sales ban reversed
RED ALERT: Police officers stand around a stolen car which has been stripped for parts in a scrap yard. Image: City Press
Awesome South Africa
The best, greatest, craziest, biggest, and funniest - Awesome South Africa will intrigue you, make...
CAPE TOWN, South Africa - A ban on the sale of spare parts from scrapped vehicles has been removed from proposed National Road Traffic Act regulations.
The national transport department said on August 7 2013 that MPs' concerns about the implications of such a ban were taken into account, senior transport official John Motsatsing told Parliament's transport portfolio committee.
In the original draft the sale of spare parts from deregistered vehicles was banned and that, MP's said, would have harmed used car-parts dealers.
JOBS ON THE LINE
Democratic Alliance MP Ian Ollis first raised concerns, which prompted MP's to push for the provision in the regulations to be changed. Committee chairperson Ruth Bhengu said: "You would have affected people who are making a living from scrap parts sof a car. That's why the department came back with amendments which allow the use of parts of cars that are still in good condition."
The original draft would have had a devastating effect on the scrap-metal and insurance industries. Bhengu added: "If we had allowed the regulation, the impact of that would have been the closure of scrapyards, the loss of jobs, and it would have prevented people from getting second-hand parts and made it expensive to buy parts."
Motsatsing argued that the regulations were intended to curb the theft of motor vehicles for parts and eradicate "chop shops".
What do YOU think? Surely those responsible for the suggestion should have seen the obvious? Anyway, do you think scrapyards should get the chop? Email us and we'll publish your thoughts or use the Readers' Comments section below...

RISE Armament Debuts Veil Flash Hider
The flash hider is engineered for maximum effectiveness.
Broken Arrow, Oklahoma — (ArmsVault.com) — RISE Armament, a premier manufacturer and supplier of AR firearms and components, is introducing the Veil Flash Hider to its growing line of firearms accessories.
RISE Armament engineered the Veil Flash Hider to effectively minimize flash without the irritating ringing sound that’s typical with most prong-style flash hiders. The Veil was originally designed specifically for the company’s Watchman law enforcement rifle, but due to customer demand, RISE is offering the product individually as well.
“When we were designing the flash hider, our first priority was, of course, making sure it performed well. Then we wanted to take it up another level,” said Matt Torres, president of RISE Armament. “We made it look good, but that wasn’t enough. Our test groups mentioned they didn’t like the sound other high-performing flash hiders make, so we engineered that out.”
To enable faster, more accurate follow-up shots, the Veil counteracts the negative effects of a firearm’s flash on a shooter’s night vision. The flash hider has a sleek, modern design with a black nitride finish. It is precision machined from 416 stainless steel and includes a crush washer for installation.
- Minimizes muzzle flash for the user to counteract the flash’s negative effects on the shooter’s night vision

You were born with desire
You were born with a hunger
You were born with an Appetite!
An appetite for deeper connection and understanding of this world in all it’s juiciness.
The juiciness of deep connective relationships
The juiciness of feeling passion for your work
The juiciness of seeing and experiencing the world
The juiciness of our inner world and it’s divine energy
The juiciness of expansive moments of intimacy
Though, as we walk through our lives we distance from the elements that fill us
Separating from what nourishes us in the spectacular way we were meant to be nourished
Disconnecting from that voice that demands and desires ecstasy. We develop a deep expansive VOID instead of an expansive joy of life.
Closing down little by little throughout our journey consciously and unconsciously
Or maybe closing down all at once after a particular experience
Beginning to note your hunger, your very being, as too much!
And yet believing yourself not enough because you hunger.
Stuffing, starving, and blocking.
Disconnecting more and more from life, passion, purpose, and those you claim to love.
Love, Juicy Emotions, Experiences themselves are just too scary… just too out of the box..
Swapping Desire for Hunger!
We block and fill with food, social media, people-pleasing, addictions, and general busyness. We have this massive appetite and yet we can oftentimes no longer feel it. We numb.
Though, in the quiet moments, we sit wondering why we aren’t happy. Why we never truly feel filled.
We look at those around us at those that live a seemingly “weird life” because they are, blessed or gifted. These “success stories” living a life of abundance in their desires and stepping through their journey with a light and passion for life. You think they must be lucky or born for something more… not you!
When in truth, we were all made to dive in and claim our desires and the yumminess of life.
Our souls want us to open up to the full embodiment of our appetites.
To choose to not live in a constant state of hunger from the very things that makes life worth living and bring a feeling of fulfillment…
You were not meant to shut down all your sexual desires but instead to feel the flow and the swirling of those fiery energies
You were not meant to shut down your heart and connection to love but instead to drop those armored pieces and feel the warm embrace of unconditional love.
You were not meant to even shut off your physical hunger but to savor the taste of each morsel.
The masses want you to starve like they do…
To live in shame of your desires and also to think there isn’t anything out there to grasp for… you don’t even realize how much you are starving.
It’s time to reclaim your appetite.
All of your appetite.
To taste life for its true flavor.
And this is a rebellious act in a world where so many are starving.
To decide to wake up and connect with your core each and every day.
To demand MORE when others tell you to settle
To be truly ravenous.
Dancing between the desire for even more and allowing yourself to be filled. Fully and completely.
Allowing yourself to be ravished by this life.
You can have a life that you wake feeling passionate and excited to live each and every day. You can feel loved and connected to self and those in your life. Living each day with passion and a soul-inspired desire and direction.
You don’t have to keep starving your life away!

There is something so powerful and moving about allowing yourself to sit in all your nakedness and feel your power while you at the same time witnessing another in their nakedness.
Nakedness is first and foremost an inner game.
Until we are able and willing to love ourselves as we strip ourselves down to our core…
See our light and our dark
Recognize our wounds and holdbacks
Allow ourselves to own our own power
Until we do these things with self we can never be truly naked with another person.
True nakedness comes from true vulnerability and authenticity.
My question to you today is if you are ready to join this rare few?
Men or Women… this is about you standing in all your magnificence!

WaStop® Inline Check valve
By installing Wastop check valves the city was able to maintain near full capacity flow toward the river while preventing flow in the reverse direction. The Wastops were simple to install and require no maintenance. After eight years of service the City of Windsor’s operations group are able to state with certainty that WaStop check valves require virtually zero maintenance.
There are now close to 60 Wastop inline check valves installed in the City of Windsor’s piping systems. Besides the Riverside Drive area described above, many of the check valves are installed in manholes on city streets. The Wastops are often used to prevent flow reversal within the combined sanitary/storm system, ensuring the fluid can only flow in one direction through the piping. The City continue to design WaStop check valves into their growing system because they know they can rely on these valves to perform as expected when it matters most. With changing climate conditions more unusual high water/high rainfall conditions are expected and the City knows all to well the significant costs that flooding can cause.

A review of the album 'Souljacker'
Loose, overblown, extravagant, unnecessary.... but enough about Mr E's new beard!
Mr E's band, the Eels, have always been pretty miserable. Their debut 'Beautiful Freak' won them a Brit Award for Best Newcomer and was a fuzzy but tunefully downbeat affair with a lovely title track and two cracking hit singles, "Novocaine for the Soul" and "Susan's House". Its follow-up 'Electro-Shock Blues' wallowed in tales of cancer, death and misery unparalleled since The Joy Division or Lou Reed's practically unlistenable 'Berlin'. It had good tunes too though. But last year's jaunty hit single "Mr E's Beautiful Day" and the subsequent album, 'Daisies In The Galaxy', heralded a new, happier and chirpier Mr E, didn't it?
No it didn't. Even though Daisies' feel was upbeat, acoustic and shimmery, maybe the song titles should have given us a clue. The album's standout track, "It's A Motherfucker", had a luminous melody but the lyrics suggested that E's happiness may be transitory.
'Souljacker' is the result, named after an American serial killer who tried to claim the souls of his victims. Its opening track, "Dog Faced Boy", is a loud, guitar-driven slab of fractured blues about how life aint so good for a dog-faced boy. God knows what it means. But it obviously hurts. From there it is obvious that the acoustic, brass and string confection of Daisies In The Galaxy is long long gone. In its place come loud snare drums, tortured bass, break beats and stinging power chords. True, there are still some lovely moments. "Friendly Ghost" could fit snugly into Daisies but this album, on the whole, is more disturbing and challenging than before.
Whether this makes for better music is debatable. Mr E has never taken the easy route, and he is undoubtedly a talented, if slightly geeky, songwriter. But some of the more industrial tracks on the album, like "Jungle Telegraph", do not have a compelling melody. The music unquestionably has drama and power and wonderfully quirky lyrics like "Mum won't shave me / Jesus can't save me" make this a potent mix. Still, I don't consider this to be E at his best. Would still buy it though.


It is commonly believed that the assembly of a polarized actin cytoskeleton is achieved by concentrating regulators of actin assembly in subdomains at the cell cortex. A complex and poorly understood interplay between these regulators leads to actin assembly and the recruitment of factors that stabilize and specialize the network. One such regulator is Aip3p (Amberg et al., 1997
). Aip3p is critical to the establishment and/or maintenance of a polarized actin cytoskeleton. Spatially and temporally, Aip3p localization precedes actin polarization during the budding cell cycle of S. cerevisiae,
and loss of AIP3
leads to gross defects in many (if not all) aspects of cell polarity (Amberg et al., 1997
). Because little is known about mechanisms underlying the polarized localization of regulators of the actin cytoskeleton, we have focused on understanding the mechanism behind the regulation of Aip3p localization. Here we present genetic and biochemical data that strongly support the model that Aip3p is delivered to sights of polarized actin assembly by the secretory pathway.
Aip3p localization was scrutinized in strains mutant for proteins whose localization behavior mimicked that of Aip3p. We examined several such mutants and those that affected Aip3p localization were all tied directly to the function of the secretory pathway. These included the bona fide “sec”
mutants, sec2, sec3, sec4,
(see Figure ), as well as mutants in the type V myosin Myo2p and its regulatory light-chain calmodulin (see Figure ). Some of the secretory pathway components we examined possess a polarized localization pattern like Aip3p, such as components of the “exocyst” (TerBush and Novick, 1995
), the small GTPase Sec4p (Brennwald and Novick, 1993
), and Sec3p (Finger et al., 1998
); however, we found that early acting Sec proteins, such as Sec14p and Sec17p, are also essential for Aip3p localization. This argues that the entire secretory pathway must be operational for normal Aip3p delivery. Mutations in VRP1, SPA2, LAS17,
only mildly affected GFP-Aip3p localization, suggesting that they are not directly involved in the Aip3p localization pathway.
was first identified as a mutant defective in cell morphology (Johnston et al., 1991
), but the protein it encodes has since been determined to be involved in late secretory vesicle delivery (Lillie and Brown, 1994
; Govindan et al., 1995
), probably by transporting late secretory vesicles on actin cables that terminate in the bud (Pruyne et al., 1998
). Our discovery that a MYO2
mutant is defective for Aip3p localization indicates that Myo2p must act on Aip3p-bearing secretory vesicles. A mutation in the actin-binding motor domain of Myo2p (myo2-66
) severely affected Aip3p localization. However, a mutation in the tail domain of Myo2p known to cause vacuolar inheritance defects (Catlett and Weisman, 1998
) had a much less disruptive effect on Aip3p localization (see Figure ). We interpret these data to indicate that Myo2p delivers Aip3p-bearing vesicles by translocating these vesicles on actin cables.
Our data also demonstrate a requirement for calmodulin in Aip3p delivery. We believe the calmodulin connection to Aip3p localization is most likely through Myo2p. It is known that calmodulin is bound to Myo2p (Brockerhoff et al., 1994
) and that calmodulin in other organisms acts as a regulatory light chain for many different species of myosin motors. It is interesting that we observed strong allele specificity in calmodulin mutants with respect to defects in Aip3p localization. The construction and genetic analysis of a set of calmodulin phenylalanine-to-alanine mutants previously led to the identification of four distinct functions for yeast calmodulin (Ohya and Botstein, 1994a
). Intragenic complementation between the mutants was used to assign them to four functional groups. We found that mutants in one of the four complementation groups were most defective for Aip3p localization and that this defect could largely be attributed to a F12A mutation in calmodulin (see Figure ). These data indicate that the function affected in this complementation group is one that serves to activate the Myo2p motor to move late secretory vesicles (Aip3p-bearing vesicles included) on actin cables.
An argument can be made that the secretory pathway involvement in Aip3p localization is indirect and is, for example, due to a failure to deliver a transmembrane receptor for Aip3p to the cell surface. This model could explain the Aip3p localization defects in secretory pathway mutants, but it does not account for the fractionation behavior of Aip3p. By crude fractionation and differential centrifugation (Figure ), velocity gradient analysis (Figure ), and floating and density gradient analysis (Figure ), a pool of Aip3p behaves like a secretory vesicle–associated protein. The sequence of Aip3p has no obvious signal peptide and no potential transmembrane domains and is in fact quite highly charged. Therefore, we believe that Aip3p is a peripherally associated membrane protein and that its association with vesicles must be through an interaction with another membrane-associated protein. Aip3p is not unique in this behavior; biochemically, Aip3p behaves similarly to the rab-like GTPase Sec4p. Sec4p cycles on and off late secretory vesicles in a mechanism that is believed to be tied to the GTPase cycle of the protein (Novick et al., 1993
). In crude fractionation experiments analogous to those we performed in Figure , Sec4p also partitions between cytosolic and microsome-associated pools (Goud et al., 1988
What are the proteins directly involved in Aip3p delivery and targeting? We have begun to address this question by defining the sequence elements within Aip3p that are involved in the interactions required for proper protein delivery and localization (Figure E). Mutational analysis has identified a region at the N terminus of Aip3p that is necessary and sufficient for Aip3p localization. Within this region of Aip3p is a sequence that is conserved with the N terminus of a protein of unknown function from S. pombe (Figure A). Exogenous overexpression of this domain of Aip3p interferes with Aip3p localization in trans (Figure B), and the N terminus of the S. pombe homologue can functionally replace the N terminus of Aip3p in the Aip3p localization pathway (Figure B). These data lead us to conclude that the sets of protein–protein interactions and the pathways required for Aip3p delivery and localization have been conserved and are mediated through a sequence motif we designate as the Aip3p “addressing domain.”
Several previous observations have suggested that Aip3p localization does not require the actin cytoskeleton. On the basis of the work presented here, it is clear that the Aip3p-actin interaction that led to our initial discovery of Aip3p (Amberg et al., 1997
) is unimportant for Aip3p localization (see Figure E). However, the experiments in this article strongly suggest that Aip3p is delivered to the bud site in association with secretory vesicles that are moved on actin cables. When cells are released from Go
in the presence of the actin disassembly drug latrunculin A, 30% of the cells are able to localize Aip3p to the bud site (Ayscough et al., 1997
). This actin-independent localization likely reflects diffusion of Aip3p to and capture by a receptor for Aip3p at the cell surface, and whether this is free Aip3p or vesicle-associated Aip3p we do not know. Similarly, the observation that Aip3p localization precedes actin polarization during the cell cycle may reflect a diffusion-based mechanism as well. Capture of a small amount of Aip3p may be sufficient to help seed actin assembly at these sites, leading to further polymerization events, including actin cable extension. Once cables have formed, then we expect that Myo2p begins the delivery of large amounts of Aip3p and associated proteins to the bud site so that a polarized actin cytoskeleton can be fully assembled and then maintained. Because actin filaments in cells are unstable and are continuously disassembling (Ayscough et al., 1997
), we expect that maintaining a polarized actin cytoskeleton requires the continual delivery of positive regulators of actin assembly. This may in fact be the major function of secretory pathway–mediated delivery of Aip3p: to deliver Aip3p-associated proteins (such as actin itself) to the bud site, acting like a molecular taxi cab.
This secretory pathway–mediated, Aip3p localization pathway is not used by all cell polarity effectors. Localization of the formin Bni1p, known to interact with Aip3p (Evangelista et al., 1997
), is unaffected by disruption of the secretory pathway. In addition, Aip3p and Bni1p are not dependent on each other for their localization. The phenotypic similarity between aip3Δ
strains, the fact that the two proteins interact with each other and show the same localization pattern, suggests they operate in the same pathway, and yet we have found that they are localized by different mechanisms. Collectively, these observations suggest a model for regulation of cell polarity in which different regulators are focused at the cell surface by independent methods and that perhaps it is the spatial overlap of these proteins that leads to the efficient assembly and maintenance of a polarized actin cytoskeleton.

After you acclimate it (I would be using the drip method) how can you transfer him to the tank with out him touching air and not letting the fish store water get in your tank? I heard grabbing them in nets is a horrible idea and I guess air would also be hitting him or her.
I feed him krill every 2 weeks, i use tetra jumbo krill. Then i feed him 1/4 a block of emerald entree, brine shrimp, or LRS (the local food mix of a bunch of different fish and stuff, best frozen in the east cost. Runs about 20$ for 16oz bag) that also feeds my other 4 fish in his 37g home.
If you have other fish that eat krill than maybe 2-3 times a week. Ether get tongs or hand feed them to make sure it doesnt get caught in the rocks and rot.
TBH when i got him i was a noob so i picked him up in my hand and put him in the tank, but hes healthy and happy so i guess i was lucky.
You can get a plastic container and then scoop him up, then poor as much of the LFS
store water down the drain, then just stick him in the tank with the minimal amount of LFS

On Wednesday Radio 4 aired a programme called White Mischief,which promised to trace ‘where whiteness came from and how its power has remained elusive.’ It asked whether white privilege existed. Or rather it pretended to ask. It assumed that it does. Instead of directly admitting that it was putting forward one point of view, it was one of those annoying programmes that affects a sort of light-hearted neutrality, and vaguely claims to be moving away from the unhelpfully limited conversations we have been having so far.
So instead of soberly setting out the issue, it began with a jokey clip of Grayson Perry hooting with laughter at some wise brave insight he had just had, and then darting off sidewise into some sociology. It seemed to want to provoke the listener into complaining that it was muddled – and then maybe to wonder whether his complaint was rooted in a discredited rationalism. In short, I disliked its tone.
Robert Halfon MP was allowed to question the idea of white privilege, and he pointed out that working-class white kids faced serious obstacles and that calling them privileged on account of their race was counter-productive. On the other hand he was very clear that racism exists and can be a severe form of disadvantage. The presenter did not seriously comment on this point of view; he moved on to something else. This felt evasive and lazy. If there is a serious objection to the concept of white privilege it should be squarely considered. Instead it was quickly acknowledged for the sake of balance, and then ignored.
The programme annoyed me. But maybe fruitfully. For it spurred me into trying to express my objection to the idea of white privilege, and then, when I got thinking (dangerous, thinking) I admitted that the concept might have some validity. But this must be articulated with great care.
Isn’t it enough to say that everyone should be treated equally, and that discrimination against ethnic minorities is a bad thing? On one level, no. This standard liberal narrative subtly associates normality with the absence of racial discrimination, and so confers ‘normal’ status on the white majority as long as they are not overtly racist. It subtly affirms the white majority as already in tune with the ideal state of enlightened harmony. But if we see racial discord as an issue affecting society as a whole, then we have to think about the racial identity of the majority, even though we are accustomed to seeing it as merely normal and neutral.
So there is some validity in antiracists wanting to turn the tables on the white majority, and make them awkwardly racially self-conscious. I’m not quite saying that we whites should feel guilty for our whiteness. But we should feel involved in the problem of racial discord, and question the liberal assumption that as long as we are decent enough, then we are blamelessly waiting for racial harmony to unfold.
Our core secular liberal assumptions are too weak to express the fierce power of the issue. Maybe, as I’ve argued herebefore, we need a more religious language, capable of voicing notions of sin and hope. The new assertive antiracism should be seen in this light. It insists that the white majority is not morally neutral, but is involved in the fraught story of racism. It says that unless it repents of historic sin, and yearns for a truly harmonious society, it is complicit in a deep evil, and has the privilege of being able to ignore the fact.

China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) will lead a consortium that will build a major bridge in Croatia after it won an international race to the infrastructure project.
Croatian Roads announced the decision after the Chinese consortium submitted a bid of around US$330 million (excluding VAT) which beat off competition from Austrian and Turkish consortiums, despite the fact that the latter body’s each reportedly offered higher sums.
The 2.4km beam and cable-stayed Peljesac bridge and its connected access roads is one of the largest planned infrastructure projects in Croatian history and has been declared one of exceptional importance to the nation.
Once completed, the bridge will allow drivers to avoid a detour into neighbouring Bosnia by connecting an isolated Croatian peninsula with the mainland, connecting key tourist destination cities Split and Dubrovnik.
The allocation of the construction contract to the Chinese consortium represents a vital breakthrough for the project, which has been in the offing for two decades.

Killer Bugs: Weaponizing Insects to Wage Wars
You’ve most likely heard of biological warfare — using bacteria, viruses and fungi as weapons — but you may not know about entomological warfare. This particular type of biological warfare harnesses the power of insects, and, no, we aren’t talking about Marvel’s Ant-Man calling his pals for backup. We’re talking stinging scorpions and pits filled with flesh-eating assassin bugs.
Insects have been used in war by military strategists for thousands of years — if not longer. But when compared with modern-day technology, how much damage can an insect do? Our advice: Don’t underestimate these small soldiers. In addition to inflicting pain on the enemy, insects are also used to spread pathogens and destroy crops. By causing pain or a disease outbreak or devastating an army’s supplies, insects have helped shift the tides of war, resulting in a lasting impact on the history of the world.
Jeffrey Lockwood, author of a book about entomological warfare called Six-Legged Soldiers, posits that the earliest example of insect warfare probably involved bees in the form of tossing angry hives at your enemies and running in the other direction. In fact, this practice was so commonplace in medieval Europe that castles were equipped with "bee boles" — little recesses that acted as bee barracks — and armies constructed catapults with the sole purpose of slinging hives at foes.
According to Herodian, an ancient historian, Roman emperor Septimius Severus was on the receiving end of a painful arachnid attack. The second-century ruler was eager to take control of Mesopotamia, but local monarchs set up a lovely trap for his arm. When Roman soldiers moved on the Mesopotamian stronghold of Hatra, so-called "scorpion bombs" rained down on them. Shells made of earthenware were filled with the stinging, venomous arachnids. Needless to say, Septimius and co. were waylaid and ended up retreating.
When looking back on game-changing moments in history, historians have difficulty pinpointing well-documented examples of entomological warfare — in part because the folks of yesteryear didn’t really understand the spread of disease as we do today. For example, historians often suggest bugs are connected to the spread of the Black Death — something that wouldn’t have really registered with those who survived the plague.
In the 14th century, the (bubonic) plague to end all plagues spread from Asia Minor and eventually resulted in the death of roughly a quarter of Europe’s population. While folks commonly believed rats caused the epidemic, it was later determined in the early 1900s that fleas were actually patient zero.
Historian Reid Kirby asserts that even if folks didn’t realize it at the time, fleas were being used as a weapon: Tartars (potentially) purposely spread the epidemic to the Crimean city of Kaffa. Regardless of the intention — if any — behind the spread of Europe’s Black Death, fleas’ involvement in the epidemic reinforces the potential of entomological warfare.

Simple products have been starting to feature more within my skincare recently- earlier this month I posted about the Simple Wipes that i’ve been loving recently!
Whilst on that mini Simple skincare spree I spied this Deep Cleansing Mask in their range; as Simple is targeted for sensitive skin I wasn’t sure how ‘powerful’ it would be- but, as you may remember, some masks have been leaving me red faced recently so I thought it was worth a try. How could I not for £1.95!!
~ F.M.F – Simple Deep Cleansing Face Mask ~
This mask always seems to be at least half price at Superdrug these days, even at £3.99 full price it’s still pretty cheap!
So what does this mask claim..
”Smile, it’s Simple. Now with Vitamin Goodness! Simple Kind To Skin Deep Cleansing Face Mask is a perfect blend of active ingredients and vitamin goodness to draw out deep dirt and eliminate dead cells. Perfect for even sensitive skin. Simple Goodness – 2 Vital Vitamins; Pro-Vitamin B5 actively restores, softens and smoothes & Vitamin E moisturises to improve skin condition & 3 Skin Loving Nutrients; Natural Clay detoxifies and purifies, Seaweed Extract cleanses, soothes and softens & Bisabolol soothes and calms. No Perfume, No Colour, No Unnecessary or Harsh Chemicals! ”
As per the instruction I thoroughly cleansed my skin beforehand with 2 Simple wipes. The product texture is that of a very thick moisturiser with little scent. Immediately it feels cooling on the skin with a slight tingle sensation which is very calming. This is a super quick 3 min mask, some thinner areas do dry slightly but it starts to set on the skin within the time.
After washing off, with no trouble, my skin felt cleansed and very soft- with NO REDNESS yay! My skin did look clean with some smaller blemishes slightly reduced, it also left my skin matte. No lingering scent or tingle left!
I really liked this mask; for a quick fix it’s a perfect product. No irritation, a slight tingle (which I like) which leaves your skin refreshed an softer. Great if you have more sensitive skin but still want a deep cleanse for your skin! I think I shall keep this in my shower to leave it on whilst washing my hair- will be repurchasing / finding more Simple masks for sure! For the price, even better if it’s on offer, I would highly recommend giving it a try! 🙂
Let me know if you have tried this mask plus any recommendations below!
Thank You So Much For Reading 🙂

The runoff is directed to the storm sewer system through storm drains in and under the gutters (catch basins) of the street system. This system is often referred to as a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4). It uses separate pipes to carry wastewater and stormwater. The pipes for wastewater connect directly to the wastewater treatment plant for futher processing, while the pipes for stormwater connect directly to local waterways. All catch basins, creeks, culverts, ditches, and storm sewers in the City of Port Moody lead directly to Burrard Inlet.

RARELY do I leave an app a bad review, let alone because of the amount of advertisements in the game, but the amount of ads in this game was bad enough that I thought it deserved a bad review. Not only does it show ads between every single playing of the game which is a minor inconvenience, it also pauses IN THE MIDDLE OF A GAME to show you ads, and then when you ultimately get back into the game, you usually die immediately, as you have just been thrown into a random spot in the game. Additionally, within a minute of downloading this game it was already crashing. My advice? Don’t waste your time.
I used to play this game all the time about two years ago and thought I'd redownload it for some nostalgic fun. however, once I did I was very upset by the changes made to this game. whenever I had to take my finger off the screen to jump, I would run into a wall as soon as I put my finger back on the green bar. this game changed from something I could pass the time playing enjoyably to something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. very disappointed to say the least.
This game is super finicky and the controls are complete trash - even for a mobile game! If that isn't frustrating enough, when you open this app you're completely BOMBARDED with ads. I understand that free apps with display the occasional ad, but the amount of ads you get with this game is ungodly.
It's frustrating, it's not fun to play, and the ads are out of control. There are better games out there, so if you're looking for a fun, yet challenging mobile game, look elsewhere.

Gospel: Lk 16:9-15
And so I tell you: use filthy money to make friends for yourselves, so that, when it fails, these people may welcome you into the eternal homes.
Whoever can be trusted in little things can also be trusted in great ones; whoever is dishonest in slight matters will also be dishonest in greater ones. So if you have been dishonest in handling filthy money, who would entrust you with true wealth? And if you have been dishonest with things that are not really yours, who will give you that wealth which is truly your own?
No servant can serve two masters. Either he does not like the one and is fond of the other, or he regards one highly and the other with contempt. You cannot give yourself both to God and to Money.”
The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and sneered at Jesus. He said to them, “You do your best to be considered righteous by people. But God knows the heart, and what is highly esteemed by human beings is loathed by God.
When we feel sick and visit our doctor, the first thing the doctor does is to check our vital signs: temperature, pulse, blood pressure. These will tell him if there is something wrong with us or not.
In the Christian life, one of the key indicators of our spiritual condition before God is our relationship to money: do we use money or do we serve money? This is the question to ask ourselves, as we can judge by combining the teaching contained in today’s two readings.
Paul is a magnificent example of someone who uses money and is not serving it. As he says: “I have learned to manage with what I have. I know what it is to be in want and what it is to have plenty. I am trained for both.”
On the other hand, Jesus in today’s gospel tells us that we cannot hold a neutral position towards money: either we serve it as our practical god (a “god” is anything to which we give our hearts) or we only use it and serve the true God. But we have to choose, Jesus tells us: “You cannot give yourself both to God and money.”
Whom do I serve: God or money?
