The fast food chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has decided to close all of its restaurants in Turkey’s southeast provinces hit by the 6 February earthquake, and attempted to force more than 200 employees to resign, Bianet reported on Friday.
In addition to its restaurants in quake-stricken Urfa (Riha), Gaziantep (Dîlok), Malatya (Meletî) and Diyarbakır (Amed), the fast food chain also shut down its stores in Batman (Êlih) and Bingöl (Çewlig) in east and southeast Turkey, Mezopotamya News Agency reported.
KFC tried to force its employees to resign in order to avoid paying compensations, but later cancelled their contracts over the reactions of its workers and their union.
Seyit Aslan, the head of the union, told Bianet that some of KFC’s restaurants had been severely damaged due to the earthquakes, but added that the fast food chain had decided to shut-down all its stores in the region independent of their damage status.
“The KFC informed the employees for the first time on 22 March. It demanded employees to resign without any prior warning. This meant being unemployed without receiving severance and notice pay as well as unemployment pay,” said Aslan.
“When employees protested, they told employees that they will be laid off by counting days they could not work after the earthquake as unpaid leave. Later they offered employees to be transferred to restaurants in other provinces,” Aslan said, adding that most of the employees facing unemployment said they would accept the deal if they received support for paying their rents.
According to Aslan, finding themselves unemployed means a second disaster for people trying to survive in Turkey’s quake-hit southern provinces.

Myoma Uterine Fibroids What is Myoma, Causes, Symptoms and Treatment for Myoma
A fibroid is a benign tumor that mainly consists have muscular tissue and usually grows inside the uterus. Fibroids are also called myomas. Its size ranges widely, from a small tumor the size of a pea to a large tumor almost the size of the uterus. Myomas are classified into three types, depending on the location where they are found. The intramural myoma, a fibroid that grows in the muscular wall of the uterus. This subserosal myoma, a fibroid located just beneath the outside mucosal covering of the uterus. Here the fibroid projects to the.
Outside and occasionally remains connected with the uterus only through a small stalk. The submucosal myoma, a tumor that grows beneath the surface of the uterus lining. Therefore, this type of fibroids can grow into the uterine cavity. The actual causes have development of a fibroid are still unclear. However, it has been documented that fibroids are associated with high levels of estrogen, the female sex hormone. Fibroids can only developed during reproductive years of women. Following menopause, the production of estrogen decreases which will usually cause fibroids to shrink or disappear.
Myomas are more common in nonpregnant and infertile women. In general, fibroids are asymptomatic or associated with just a few complaints if any complaints. If any complaints occur, then the location, size and type of the fibroid are the major factors. Fibroids can affect nearby structures. They can cause compression of the bladder, which may lead to urinary complaints, or may obstruct the intestine, which may result in constipation. Other complaints can be backaches, abdominal problems, menstrual flow disturbances. Fibroids can impede normal childbirth, which may require caesarean delivery. Fibroids relatively more often lead to miscarriages.
Whenever fibroids cause symptoms, they need to be removed or shrinked. Medications sometimes cause fibroid to shrink by blocking the production and secretion of estrogen. In other cases, surgery may be required to remove the fibroid. The type of surgery depends on the location of the fibroid. Sometimes it's possible to remove the fibroid with the help of the tube entered through the vagina and the procedure is called hysteroscopic myomectomy. In other cases, surgery through the abdominal wall may be necessary. In the case of a large fibroid, hysterectomy may be the only solution.
What are Fibroids Causes, symptoms and treatment of fibroids
Welcome back lovely ladies today we are going to figure out fibroids. figure out fibroids figure out fibroids It's like a tongue twister! say that three times fast. anyway, fibroids are something that you may never have to face because it generally tends to affect women age 30 or more however it is interesting to note that 25 percent women will probably suffer from fibroids at one point in their life but I'll never have symptoms and they'll never need treatment so what the heck are fibroids Fibroids are noncancerous growths.
In the muscle walls in your uterus. Studies show that that being overweight or having high blood pressure are major risk factors. Fibroids tend to shrink when your body goes through menopause. So, what causes fibroids unknown. I know, sorry to disappoint you. the thing is is that the growth depends on the estrogen levels in the body and as the woman continues to menstruate and the sizes can vary they can be so small that you need a microscope to look at them or they can be really big as big as the uterus. now if you do have symptoms,.
Some of them may include pelvic cramping when you're not on your period, lower abdomen pain, lower back pain, painful sex, and increased urine frequency. the doctor will do an ultrasound to check for all of this. Now some treatment options generally include getting on birth control pills or an IUD Intrauterine Device to help regulate the estrogen, and if it really really really comes down to it surgery is also an option.

Sawsan Assanie, MD Tutorial Profile
Gtgt There's been a lot of tradition in my family. My father was actually a general OBGYN, and so I grew up in a family that gynecology and obstetrics was the routine. I think I went into OBGYN for very different reasons than my father, and have kind of developed my career specific to my particular interests. But the basis for it has always been a passion, particularly for women's health. My primary focus, or the way that I like to see patients is to make sure to see each individual patient as a unique person what are her specific needs,.
What are her specific goals and to make sure that she's very well informed about all of the options that are available to her, whether they're medical or surgical. And so I really like to tailor my treatment plan particularly to that patient's needs, and what seems to be best appropriate for her. My focus is in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, as well as I see a lot of patients with endometriosis, and chronic pelvic pain. I have specific training in advanced gynecologic surgery, particularly laparoscopic surgery, and robotic surgery, and I've tailored my practice to see patients with uterine fibroids,.
Understanding fibroids and abnormal uterine bleeding
Gtgt Sawson AsAsanie, M.D., MPH My name is Sawson AsAsanie, and I'm the director of the Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Program at the University of Michigan. Today we're going to be talking about abnormal uterine bleeding, which is a very common condition that affects many women in their reproductive years. Abnormal bleeding is any type of bleeding that is irregular. That could be bleeding in between menstrual cycles, bleeding that is heavier than usual during menstrual cycles, bleeding after intercourse, or even bleeding after someone's gone through menopause. There are many different causes of abnormal bleeding, and some might be due.
To hormonal changes, some might be due to structural abnormalities such as lesions within the uterus, and others might be due to systemic medical conditions. When a woman has a menstrual cycle that occurs greater than 35 days from start to start, less than 21 days from start to start, or bleeding in between their menses, after intercourse, or after menopause, these are all indications that something might be abnormal, and she should be examined by her physician. Uterine fibroids are a common cause of abnormal bleeding, and the lifetime risk.
Of developing uterine fibroids is approximately 70 to 80 percent. Uterine fibroids are benign tumors of the uterus and can cause many symptoms such as abnormal uterine bleeding, which can be either heavy or irregular, pelvic pain, andor pelvic pressure related to the large size of fibroids. However, not all women with uterine fibroids have symptoms, and the decision to proceed with treatment for uterine fibroids really depends on whether or not those symptoms are bothersome. If you think that your bleeding symptoms are abnormal or bothersome, or if you suspect that you might have uterine fibroids, you should talk to your doctor.
Endometriosis, Uterine Fibroids, and Estrogen Dominance
Now, when we have a stage called estrogen dominance estrogen proliferates tissue when it's dominant. Estrogen within itself is very good. I helps us with our brain tissue, our memory. It helps us to think clearly, prevents foggy brain and all this other stuff. Estrogen in itself is very goodit's not bad. But when you have an estrogen dominance situation where the estrogen is very dominant over the progesterone, you're going to have all these symptoms and you're going to have a proliferation of tissue. For instance, if a woman comes in with cysts on her ovaries or cysts in her breasts.
Or she has fibroids on the inner uterine lining, or she has endometriosis these are all tissues that are being proliferated. They are increasing because she's got too much estrogen in her. Thus, we have a lot of increase in the amounts of hysterectomies because women are getting large fibroids and they're bleeding heavy, heavy, heavy, so they have anemia. I went through this myself, personally, in my forties. I had a lot of estrogen dominance but back then we didn't know exactly what to do. And so, I ended up having a hysterectomy because every time.

Demographic development, structural factors, staff shortages: the healthcare system in Europe is facing major challenges. At the same time, the digitalization of social life is changing citizens’ expectations of modern care and creating new opportunities for networked, digitally supported medicine. Dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic has shown how important it is to switch to shared healthcare quickly. Alternatives to face-to-face medicine had to be established within a very short time.
Many solutions have shown, that digital medicine (e.g. telemedicine, networking, automatic integration and AI-supported use of data) can strengthen healthcare services. The highest level of medical expertise and cross-national cooperation in care must be available in every part of Europe. The ultimate goal is value-based healthcare for all citizens in the EU.

In addition to the Canadian Human Rights Act, pay fairness provisions pertaining to federally-regulated industries are discovered within the Equal Wage Guidelines. Ontario’s Equal Pay Act pertains to all public-sector employers and private-sector employers with more than staff. According to the Labour Force Survey. of ladies in Canada aged years and older. million participated within the labour market in. This compares with. of women. million in. Although ladies proceed to be somewhat less doubtless than men to take part in the labour force, this disparity narrowed significantly over time, from. share points in to. share points in. The Labour Force Survey is a household survey carried out month-to-month by tropical new england patriots floral hawaiian shirt Statistics Canada. It provides timely information on major labour market trends by dividing the working-age population into three mutually unique categoriesemployed, unemployed and not within the labour driveand collecting data on quite a lot of demographic, socioeconomic, and employment traits. This desk displays the results of Gender wage ratio as measured from the average hourly wages of employed men and women by period and age group to, to, to, to fifty four, fifty five to and sixty five years and over, calculated utilizing ratio models of measure. Human capital refers to people’ inventory of abilities, data, competencies, and different intangible assets, whether innate or acquired, that improve their productiveness and subsequently their economic value i.e., earnings.
Although many components contribute to at least one’s human capital, education, work experience, and job tenure are among the many most influential and amenable to measurement. Many workers usually are not paid on an hourly basis; as an alternative, they are paid on the basis of an annual salary. According to the Labour Force Survey. of girls aged years and older have been salaried staff in, as have been. of males. For salaried workers, estimates of hourly wages are usually made by either assuming a standard forty hour work week, or dividing their annual salary by their traditional weekly work hours multiplied by the number of weeks in a year. However,. zero of salaried employees reported that their work hours diversified from one week to the subsequent in, and. of salaried employees reported traditional work hours in extra of per week. It follows that, for many workers, estimates of hourly wages on the idea of an annual wage and traditional work hours might be much less accurate. Women affected in the brief time period may also feel the long-term effects in their retirement security. Women have fewer different sources of revenue after retirement than men, and they are more likely to rely on Social Security retirement and incapacity advantages. Because Social Security advantages are primarily based on lifetime earnings and the Social Security Administration calculates the typical listed monthly earnings during the years in which the worker earned essentially the most, if a lady takes trip of the workforce or reduces work hours and receives lower pay, it affects her retirement advantages.

text: The long-standing controversy concerning the effect of electron-electron interaction on the electrical conductivity of an ideal graphene sheet is settled. Performing the calculation directly in the tight binding approach without the usual prior reduction to the massless Dirac (Weyl) theory, it is found that, to leading order in the interaction strength α=e2/ v 0, the dc conductivity σ/σ0= 1+Cα+O(α2) is significantly enhanced with respect to the independent-electron result σ0, i.e., with the value C=0.26. The ambiguity characterizing the various existing approaches is nontrivial and related to the chiral anomaly in the system. In order to separate the energy scales in a model with massless fermions, contributions from regions of the Brillouin zone away from the Dirac points have to be accounted for. Experimental consequences of the relatively strong interaction effect are briefly discussed.

After storm, recovery, holidays and vacation, I’m back! My apologies for not announcing the break at the start.
Erin Hoffman’s article in the new issue of The Escapist is a highly recommended read: Shark Bone or Snake Oil: Noah Falstein and the Great Brain Training Debate.
Noah is a well-known designer of well-loved games (Secret of Monkey Island), and is part of a new serious games startup called Quixit, which has an explicit goal of creating games that are not only fun, but have a demonstrable benefit on increasing and maintaining mental acuity. In case that’s a yawner, consider the following stats and quote from the article. Consider them from these three perspectives: medical significance, business opportunity, and deeper future game design.
4.5 million Americans currently have Alzheimer’s disease, a number that has doubled since 1980 and is projected to reach 11.3-16 million by 2050. One in 10 Americans have a family member that suffers dementia; one in three knows someone who has the disease. It is referred to by medical professionals as “a demographic time bomb” and an escalating epidemic that the American health care infrastructure is not prepared to face.
if Quixit can, through methods that doctors agree assist in the prevention of cognitive atrophy, delay the onset of dementia, the Alzheimer’s Association would agree that its contribution to the solution would be major; 50 percent of Alzheimer’s patients, according to its estimates, could avoid the disease entirely if symptoms could be delayed by five years.
Yes, the article is worth a read, and the health, business AND gaming implications of this are worth a lot of thought.

Ian Somerhalder on Twitter: 'Vampire Diaries' Actor Reacts to Instagram Marriage Proposal, Swaps Boys' Night Out with Games of Thrones
By Jenalyn Villamarin | August 20, 2013 12:15 AM EST
Actor Ian Somerhalder has been receiving a lot of attention from legions of female fans since he catapulted to stardom, thanks to his breakthrough role in "Lost" and vampire character Damon Salvatore. The "Vampire Diaries" heartthrob star may be used to that but he appeared to be stunned when he received an Instagram marriage proposal.
Photo credit: Twitter/@MikaSomerholic
Somerhalder, 34, shared a screenshot of his online proposal to the millions of followers on his Twitter account @iansomerhalder to show that a person, perhaps a devoted fan, popped the magic question through the social networking site. The actor's response to the marriage proposal reads: "Marriage proposal- I think it's plenty romantic. Proposal on Instagram is more than sufficient;)."

Ian has always been an active user in Twitter where he posts messages and shares images to keep his fans and followers updated. The actor recently confessed as well that he has never watched even a single episode of the hit HBO series "Game of Thrones."
In order to catch up with what he has been missing, Ian Somerhalder expressed on Twitter about swapping a boys' night out and just have a TV series marathon instead. "Games of Thrones" will be on its fourth season in the later part of 2013 and Ian revealed to his followers about his plan of starting to watch with the first season.
"Think I'm going to trade in going out tonight &start Game of Thrones - I'm the only person I know that has never even seen a frame of this show," Ian posted. As the "Vampire Diaries" actor becomes busy and hooked in watching the TV series, co-star and ex-girlfriend Nina Dobrev will be enjoying her new single life after their much publicized break up.
Ms Dobrev may be currently linked to BFF Julianne Hough's brother, Derek, but the 24-year-old brunette actress revealed to Us Weekly that she is not in a hurry to have a new boyfriend. Reps were also quick in denying the Nina-Derek relationship reports stating that the two are just good friends.

Young children learn through play, and they remember stories through acting them out and retelling them. Felt & Flannel storyboards are South Haven Press’s newest product to help with this. As with the Clothespin People, my first priority in making storyboards was to tell Bible stories. In fact these storyboards were invented for a preschool playgroup that I run at my church. Families receive new pieces each week to reinforce the Bible story that we are learning. As I complete the development of large sets, I will make them available for sale here.
The first storyboard set, “In the Beginning…” contains pieces to tell Bible stories from the first 11 chapters of Genesis. This includes creation, Adam and Eve, the Fall, Cain and Abel, Noah and ark, and the Tower of Babel. It should be available in early May, 2022. The second set, “Patriarchs,” will cover the remainder of the stories in the book of Genesis and should be ready by the end of June. I have many other ideas for future themes: as well. “On the Farm”, “At the Zoo,” and “My Family” are currently in the idea stage.
How do they work? Felt shapes naturally stick to the flannelette board. Children can use their imagination to tell stories with these figures. Clothes are not attached, so they can “change outfits”. Special pieces open in some way, giving extra play value. For example, the animals all go inside Noah’s ark., and the baskets can hold different items such as apples, hay, and vegetables.
The Felt and Flannel storyboards are self-contained. The double-sided (blue and black) board folds up and fits inside a zippered storage pouch along with the background pieces. A second zippered compartment can hold large pieces and a separate zippered pouch holds the smaller bits. Speaking of smaller bits, some are really quite small, so this is not a suitable toy for children who put things in their mouths as it could be a choking hazard. Made in a home with a cat.
Pizza Play Food
It didn’t seem like such a big jump to go from making felt storyboards to felt pizza. I guess I wanted to see if it was possible. Do you remember playing restaurant, complete with menu and play food? I bet your kids like to do that as well. Imagine if you could actually have the ingredients to make a pizza to order? Imagine if your children could practice matching patterns by making pizza in their play kitchen. Imagine a wipe-off order sheet that can be used again and again…. Well, I did and here it is!
This pizza has six saucy slices. Add the toppings as you like to make your pizza your way.

I believe Havre is the best small town in America. But it is not for the obvious reason that I have this strong love for Havre. It is not our easy lifestyle or quality of life we enjoy, or the rich history we are blessed with that makes me feel this way. It is because of the people. It is the spirit of the people in this community that volunteer, that makes Havre the best place in America. This spirit is embedded in the hundreds of community folks who give back to the community by contributing, volunteering and participating to make Havre a better place for all, and not just themselves.
Volunteering is a gift to a whole community — it’s a gift that benefits both the recipient and the giver. Volunteering is about discovering something that needs to be done and taking the action to meet the challenge. When looking around this town of ours, one realizes that many things that have happened, projects completed or activities that take place are all because people took action and encouraged others to make a difference.
Many people who volunteer say they do it because they find it is personally rewarding and satisfying. For young people, volunteering is a way to gain experience, leadership skills and career skills. They get a lot back for what they give. Why do they do it? Many enjoy themselves while working on a project. There is that feeling of being a part of something, the fulfillment and satisfaction of accomplishment and pride in making Havre better.
If I tried to make a list I would forget someone. So instead, I extend a big thank-you to each individual, organization, church, school, business and community official for your contribution to Havre over the past year.
Like the city it represents, the Havre Area Chamber of Commerce has a wonderful spirit from the board members through to the committees and their many projects. It’s this spirit and dedication that has made this organization one of the model Chambers for others in Montana. The Chamber supports close to 300 members and hosts or sponsors 20 activities or events annually. This is only accomplished because of the 150-plus volunteers who make up the board and the 10 committees/task forces. They give of their time unselfishly to make things happen in Havre. The Chamber awards scholarships, raises funds, honors volunteers and businesses.
The diversity of the many projects of the Chamber brings together a great team of people. The rewards have been wonderful working with these unselfish, dedicated, enthusiastic people. The work of the Chamber has also created many wonderful partnerships that have netted huge dividends for the community.
As we celebrate National Volunteer Week, stand with me in thanking the hundreds of community folks who have given back to make Havre the best town in America.
It is easy to get involved. One doesn’t have to look far to find an organization or project with open arms to include you. Be involved and you can make a difference. Thank you to the hundreds who have made a positive difference in our community through volunteering as we recognize their commitment during National Volunteer Week, April 15 to 21.

ANOTHER HERITAGE VICTORY
Duval County School Board Votes 5-2 To Keep Jacksonville’s Nathan Bedford Forrest High School Name.
For the past several years a small contingent of black residents has continued a campaign to change the name of the high school which was established in the 1950’s
Their opposition has been based on charges of General Forrest being the leader of the Ku Klux Klan, which was refuted by an overflow crowd of graduates going back the founding of the high school in the 1950’s.
Typical of similar school name change campaigns, the event attracted news coverage which rather than focus on the school and the students, played up the unsubstantiated charges against General Forrest which also included charges of an alleged massacre at Fort Pillow. The Associated Press failed to clarify these charges were heard in a trial following the War Between the States presided over by Union General Sherman which found the charges groundless, exonerating General Forrest.
Buried deep in the AP story was a notation that General Forrest’s activities with the Klan were largely to disband it as well as mentioning the charges used to disparage General Forrest were heard and dismissed by the U. S. Congress.
Forrest High School today has more than half its student body represented by black students. It has undergone considerable attention from Florida school authorities as it has been graded with an "F" for the past two consecutive evaluations.
With the name change campaign over perhaps efforts for the improvement of the academic atmosphere for all students and faculty can be improved. General Forrest would be for that.
Compatriots and Camps within the Florida Division and diligent individual SCV members worked hard in bringing this important decision about.

An iconic example of the golden era of Aussie car-mag covers, the February-March 1989 issue of Performance Street Car featured Rob Cain’s 10-second, Cleveland-powered Ford Capri front and centre – and it wasn’t just because it looked good. After all, running 10s in full street-car trim was a pretty major achievement back then, and Rob had done just that in 1986 when he cracked a 10.71@127mph pass at Calder Park.
First published in the February 2023 issue of Street Machine
When Rob bought the Capri, it was a rough example with a tired 302 and C10 already bolted in, but he sensed the potential. “I liked the look of Capris; there’s more front than back and the weight distribution seemed right,” he told Performance Street Car in that ’89 feature.
He soon replaced the 302 with the 330hp, Mick Webb-built 351 from his ZG Fairlane. It featured a mild Crane cam, 2V heads ported to 4V specs, and a Holley 780 atop a Weiand X-CELerator manifold, assisted by a Marvin Miller nitrous kit. Behind that was a beefed-up C10, and a nine-inch with 3.9:1 gears from Keysborough Diffs.
Radiused rear arches also got a run, and the exterior was topped off with Ford Tropicana Green paint and the giveaway twin stripes on the quarters and doors.
“It went through a bit of a process,” Rob explains of the car’s PSC cover shoot. “They saw it out at Calder and approached me there.
Originally, they were going to do a bit of a Mad Max shot with it on the crest of a hill sideways, but then they decided to go the whole hog and do it in a studio down in South Yarra.”
The driveline got an overhaul shortly after the feature, Rob swapping to forged pistons, a solid cam and a manualised Powerglide with a view to lopping a couple of seconds off his PB. “We had a run at Heathcote, but the nitrous packed it in,” he recounts. “I was running almost 11.0s without the gas, and the gas used to make over a second’s difference on it. It would’ve ran bottom 10s or into the nines, but I was pushing it and didn’t want to blow the thing to smithereens, because you’d never rebuild it again. So I sort of backed out of it.”
Rob’s affair with motocross racing predated his drag racing career, so shortly after the PSC feature, he moved the Capri on and dived straight back into two-wheelers. “I sold it to a neighbour of mine across the road. God knows why I did it, because I’ve been pining over the thing ever since,” he chuckles. “He just sat on it for four or five years, and next thing I knew, it was getting loaded up on a trailer, and away it went.”
A few owners later, Ballarat bloke Simon Williams snagged the Capri as a rolling shell. He hooked up a bigger-cube Clevor and turned the car into an out-and-out racer with a half-chassis, tubs and a four-link. Simon ran the car with Welds and a Bug Catcher scoop in the 2000s to a best of 9.03@153mph at Calder Park, eventually selling the car to focus on his XR-XT Falcons.
Fast-forward to 2018. Katherine, NT resident Mark Ryan had just suffered a devastating shed fire while reworking the four-link under his CHEEKY8 Capri. “A few sparks somehow got through the car and lit up the rear seat, and it just went crazy,” Mark laments. “I got the hose, but by the time I got back, it was already popping the glass and stuff.”
The body was wrecked, but the driveline proved salvageable, so Mark wasted no time hunting for another car. “The night after the shed fire, I Googled what Capris were around, and this one was available out at Toowoomba,” he says. “[The owner] didn’t know who he bought it off; all he told me was that he got it from Melbourne. He’d done a new rollcage and that was it. He was a collector and it had just sat in his shed.” Mark bought the car, and his long-time engine builder, the late Sam Fenech, freshened up the Dart 369ci Windsor from CHEEKY8 to drop into the Capri, liberating an impressive 615hp on pump fuel.
Mark took the Capri to a few local drag and roll racing events to iron out any driveline bugs, followed by an appearance at Gazzanats 2022 (SM, Dec ’22). “That was the first event where we didn’t have any problems,” he explains. “We got the carbies sorted, and then I realised I had to send the converter away, because it was slipping way too much with the new combo.” In spite of the heavy race-spec mods previously made to the Capri, Mark says he plans to register it for the street later this year. “I don’t mind the drags, but I don’t live for them either!” As fate would have it, Mark’s current PB with the car is also 10.7@127mph, though that will drop considerably now his converter woes are sorted.
For Rob Cain, the car’s longevity has been a bit of a surprise. “It’s amazing how they survive,” he enthuses. “If it was a normal street-driven car, it would’ve been wrecked and in a scrapyard years ago.
The last I heard of it was probably 2015 when I did a bit of a search to try and get it back. Wayne Cartledge was keen to get it as well, and I saw him at one of the meets at Calder a few years ago. He said that the last he knew, it went to New South Wales.”
Though he wasn’t able to get his hands on the Capri again, Rob’s still tinkering with some hot cars alongside his collection of a dozen bikes. “I’ve got an HQ ute and an FD LTD that’s three-quarters of the way through a paintjob. It’s been lowered, it’s got V5 Simmons rims on it, and the motor’s been rebuilt with parts of the Capri engine, so there’s little bits of it still around!”


text: The hallway can be a challenge to decorate. Often they are long and narrow, which makes placing furniture difficult–if not impossible. A great way to make the most of your hallway is to use it as a gallery. The long lines of the hallway make it an ideal space to display family photos or your favorite artwork. Not sure how to place the photographs? Consider a grid-style configuration like the one in the photo below. Also, by placing photos in the same style of frame, the viewer is drawn to what’s in the frame instead of the frame itself. Who wouldn’t stop to look at the photographs when walking through this hallway?

Background: The incidence of fungal infections, especially those caused by Candida yeasts, has increased over the last two decades. However, the indicated therapy for fungal control has limitations. Hence, medicinal plants have emerged as an alternative in the search for new antifungal agents as they present compounds, such as essential oils, with important biological effects. Published data demonstrate important pharmacological properties of the essential oil of Cymbopogon nardus (L.) Rendle; these include anti-tumor, anti-nociceptive, and antibacterial activities, and so an investigation of this compound against pathogenic fungi is interesting.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the chemical composition and biological potential of essential oil (EO) obtained from the leaves of C. nardus focusing on its antifungal profile against Candida species.
Methods: The EO was obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Testing of the antifungal potential against standard and clinical strains was performed by determining the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), time-kill, inhibition of Candida albicans hyphae growth, and inhibition of mature biofilms. Additionally, the cytotoxicity was investigated by the IC50 against HepG-2 (hepatic) and MRC-5 (fibroblast) cell lines.
Results: According to the chemical analysis, the main compounds of the EO were the oxygen-containing monoterpenes: citronellal, geranial, geraniol, citronellol, and neral. The results showed important antifungal potential for all strains tested with MIC values ranging from 250 to 1000 μg/mL, except for two clinical isolates of C. tropicalis (MIC > 1000 μg/mL). The time-kill assay showed that the EO inhibited the growth of the yeast and inhibited hyphal formation of C. albicans strains at concentrations ranging from 15.8 to 1000 μg/mL. Inhibition of mature biofilms of strains of C. albicans, C. krusei and C. parapsilosis occurred at a concentration of 10× MIC. The values of the IC50 for the EO were 96.6 μg/mL (HepG-2) and 33.1 μg/mL (MRC-5).
Conclusion: As a major virulence mechanism is attributed to these types of infections, the EO is a promising compound to inhibit Candida species, especially considering its action against biofilm.

A crop is any plant that can be placed on a farm, raised to maturity, and harvested for resources. Crops can be purchased from Seed Merchants or Sapling Merchants, as well as discovered in the wild. The tending, watering, and harvesting of crops increases a character’s Gathering and Farming proficiencies, while chopping down trees increases Carpentry.
The Different Crop Lifecycles
All crops go through several stages on their way to maturity. They may also fall into various states of neglect if they are not harvested in time. These stages are listed below:
- Small (Tree Name) Sapling: This is the first stage of a tree’s growth. During this stage, the tree can be uprooted. This will destroy the tree, but has a chance to result in a sapling. Trees cannot be watered to speed up their growth.
- (Tree Name) Sapling: During this stage, the tree can be uprooted. This will destroy the tree, but has a chance to result in a sapling.
- Young (Tree Name): During this stage, the tree can be uprooted. This will destroy the tree, but has a chance to result in a sapling.
- (Tree Name): This is the mature stage of the tree. Starting at this stage, it can be chopped down for lumber.
- Old/Fruited (Tree Name): This is the resource-bearing stage of the tree. At this stage, Fruited trees can be gathered for fruits and/or nuts, and Old trees can be thinned for bark, leaves, and a small chance of lumber. Gathering/thinning a tree at this stage will immediately return it to the (Tree Name) stage.
- Dying (Tree Name): Fruited trees that have been gathered from multiple times have a chance to enter the Dying state. The next time it is gathered from (or chopped down) a Dying tree will disappear.
- Nonnative (Tree Name): A nonnative tree grows slower, and produces less resources when gathered from or chopped down.
Smaller Plant Lifecycle
- (Crop Name) Seedling: This is the first stage for non-tree crops. At this stage, they can be watered to immediately progress to the Small (Crop Name) state. Uprooting at this stage destroys the crop.
- Small (Crop Name): At this stage, crops can no longer be watered. Uprooting at this stage destroys the crop. Once enough time passes, the crop will enter the (Crop Name) state if it is growing in its native climate, or the Mature (Crop Name) state if it is growing in its nonnative climate.
- (Crop Name): This is the mature stage of a crop in its native climate. At this point, it may be gathered for resources. If left alone for too long, it has a chance to enter the Spoiled state.
- Mature (Crop Name): A crop that is growing in a nonnative climate will grow slower, and eventually become a Mature (Crop Name). The crop must be gathered during this stage, or it will disappear.
- Spoiled (Crop Name): A crop that has matured and not been gathered has a chance to enter the Spoiled state. Once Spoiled, the crop cannot be gathered until it is cured using Fertilizer.
Crops on Public Land
If crops are planted on public land, they legally belong to the planter for 24 hours. During that time, it is considered a crime to take them. After 24 hours, a crop on public land is considered public property, and can be taken/gathered/harvested by anyone without earning crime points.
Certain crops cannot be bought from merchants, and can only be found in the wild. These crops have a chance to produce Seeds or Saplings when harvested, allowing a player to grow them on his or her property.

Pushkar-Gayatri couple, famous for directing Vikram Veda, are currently writing the story and screenplay for a web series. The web series, titled Spin, stars Aishwarya Rajesh, Kathir, Shreya Reddy, Parthiban and many other celebrities.
Produced by Wallwatcher Films, this web series is co-directed by Brahma and Anthumacharan. The web series has 8 episodes and the first 4 episodes are directed by Brahma and the next 4 episodes are directed by Anusharan. The web series is out today on Amazon Prime OTT platform. Check out its Twitter review now.
A netizen posted: “Pushkar Gayatri’s elegant storytelling makes you travel.” The Vortex is a sight to behold. Hard truth and reality should not be the focus, but should be talked about. Kathir and Shreya Reddy’s performance is superb.
Another said that the web series is supposed to run for 6 hours, but it doesn’t look like it. A lot of talented and experienced actors have played the role, so the commitment to the story can be seen without diminishing. All the twists in this series are superb, starting with the missing case and the fire incident. Pushkar Gayatri has done it well
A cement factory is functioning in the hilly village of Sambalur. Shanmugam (Parthipan), the factory’s union leader, stages a protest to press for various demands. At the same time, Trilok Vatte (Harish Uthman) deals with the protest with indifference by taking the police officers into his hands. That night, when the factory catches fire, union leader Shanmukha’s youngest daughter goes missing. While the town is engrossed in the 9-day celebration of the grave robbery, various incidents happen one after the other. Sin falls on one side, blame falls on one side.
The horns of those who are already standing are combed. Everyone remembers the search for missing persons and a similar incident that happened earlier in the same town. The confusion of who is ours and who is the enemy upsets the balance. This ‘spin’ revolves around who is ultimately responsible for everything.
Shreya Reddy as Sambalur Inspector Regina. It’s been a few years since I saw Shreya Reddy in a Tamil context. He still threatened with the same ‘arrogance’. The character, who has to convey all the emotions like anger, affection, longing, crying, has done a wonderful job. Even if we know everyone in a town well, there are sides to everyone that we don’t know. Kadir plays the sub-inspector who realizes this fact and searches for the culprit. At some point, he draws attention to moving scenes with the guilt of having done something wrong, letting all the responsibility fall on him

After second grade, much of elementary school is a drive toward end-of-grade exams. But the pressure to do well in third-grade reading will be heightened for students, parents and schools under a plan that could force thousands of students to repeat the grade.
The state Senate has approved a bill modeled on a Florida law that emphasizes competent reading by the end of third grade. Senate Republicans used a Florida reading program championed by former Gov. Jeb Bush as their blueprint. The Senate plan has multiple prongs, but a central focus is to stop promoting third-graders who are poor readers, with some specific exceptions.
Its one of several education proposals modeled after Florida laws up for consideration this year. Another would allow more parents of disabled students to transfer their children from public to private school. Yet another would create tax breaks for corporations that contribute scholarship money for low-income students to move from public to private schools.
The reading bill came out of the Senate with a push from its most powerful members and is the closest to becoming law. If it passes, thousands of children could be sent to special reading camps and told to repeat the grade if theyre still failing.
More than 30 percent of the states third-graders failed the state end-of-grade reading test last year, but less than 3 percent repeated the grade.
Senate leader Phil Berger, the ideas lead proponent, doesnt envision schools holding back 30 percent of their third-graders. Far fewer would have to repeat the grade, he said, because of exemptions in the bill.
In the first year Florida implemented its plan, 13 percent of the states third-graders werent promoted.
Critics of the North Carolina legislation say it leaves out several elements thought to be crucial to Floridas student achievement gains.
As part of a massive reading push instigated by Bush, Florida has substantially increased the money it sends directly to school districts for reading programs. Such programs will receive $130 million next year, compared with $89 million in 2005.
School districts use the money to pay for reading coaches, reading summer schools, and professional development, said Stu Greenberg, executive director of Floridas Office of Early Learning.
More money needed?
The North Carolina proposal does not include money for training, coaches or a reading research center Bush promoted.
It looks like advocates of the Florida approach are taking everything but the relevant pieces, said Sherman Dorn, a professor at the University of South Florida who has watched the Florida literacy program grow and other states attempt to reproduce it. All I can say is, good luck.
Berger, who has taken the lead in shepherding the bill through the legislature, said all those elements arent needed.
I dont think we need to do things to the extent that Florida did them, he said. Florida had to start from scratch, Berger said, but it has cut a path that makes it easier for other states to follow.
Floridas program has become a blueprint for other states because its fourth-graders initially demonstrated significant gains on a national reading test, although the last few rounds of testing showed that those improvements have stalled.
The plan is also credited with closing the achievement gap between white students and Hispanic and African-American students.
Bush is an active promoter of whats called the Florida model and started the Foundation for Excellence in Education, which helps spread the word. After the Senate here gave final approval to the plan last week, Bush sent out a message praising their work.
Staff at Bushs foundation reviewed the Senate proposal and pronounced it sound, Berger said.
All of the feedback weve received from them has been positive, he said.
The N.C. Senate plan includes $33.9 million to be spent next year. Most of the money would be used to determine the reading abilities of all students from kindergarten through third grade. Expenses would grow to $59 million the following year, when the reading camps start and districts launch programs encouraging students to read while theyre at home.
Arguing over promotion
Making students repeat a grade is itself controversial, and opinion on whether it helps students is mixed.
Senate leaders say it is wrong to promote third-graders who are poor readers because they wont be able to learn through reading in higher grades. Critics say holding back students discourages them and that students who are retained are more likely to drop out of school when they get older.
The State Board of Education used to have a policy aimed at preventing social promotion but dropped it in 2010 because it wasnt being enforced. State education officials say they dont want to go back to it.
The policy allowed for appeals of decisions to hold children back and for local principals to promote children who failed the test. Schools promoted students who attended summer school even if they did not pass tests given at the end of the summer session.
The Senate bill has been harshly criticized by 19 faculty members at UNC Wilmingtons school of education. They prepared a 23-point critique that said the bill was wrong-headed on social promotion because retention is costly to the child and society and never works.
I have never seen a bill that is so blatantly damaging to K-12 education, said Debbie Powell, an associate professor of language and literacy at UNC Wilmington. The policy would hit minority students hardest, she said, and limit teacher creativity in classrooms.
At a State Board of Education meeting last week, Chairman Bill Harrison mentioned the many improvements the state is already working on, and suggested the state doesnt need to adopt the Florida model.
The last thing we got from Florida was Butch Davis. ... And, you know, do we want to make the same mistake again? he quipped.
The reason people say retention doesnt work is because children havent had the kind of ongoing support to improve their reading provided in the Senate plan, Berger said. Children who dont pass the third-grade test would have chances to catch up in the summer camp and with intensive reading instruction the following fall. The proposal allows for midyear promotion to fourth grade for children who make up enough ground.
Focus on literacy
At Turner Creek Elementary School in Cary, Karen Berrymans second-grade class is already preparing for third-grade reading. Children are reading more nonfiction books, which will be an emphasis next year.
Last week, a small group of students opened Why Polar Bears Like Snow: And Flamingos Dont and answered Berrymans questions about finding information in the nonfiction book. As they talked, other students worked on a variety of reading and writing activities.
The hourlong focus on literacy is structured so that all students will work with Berryman, read on their own, read aloud to a friend, write, and read a book on a computer.
Students are also building their endurance in preparation for the hours of focus required for the end-of-grade exam next year, said principal Lisa Spalding.
Children need to read at third-grade level just to make it in the world, Spalding said.
Turner Creek students pass end-of-grade exams at a higher rate than both the Wake County and state averages. Nearly 85 percent of the schools third-graders passed the reading test last year, compared with 73 percent in the county and 67.6 percent statewide.
In some of the states elementary schools, fewer than half of the third-graders pass.
Even if a few dozen students at Turner Creek were to face repeating third grade, Spalding said she was not yet certain how the school would adapt.
June Atkinson, state superintendent of public instruction, disagrees with the retention requirement, and would prefer that the state focus on a plan to offer students who struggle with reading a chance to attend summer reading camps in their early elementary years. Students reading ability slides over the summer if they dont have books or an adult who reads to them, she said.
We need to create a culture where its not punishment for students to have extended learning, she said. Its a way to prioritize learning for every single child in our state.

We booked a 11km kayaking trip through the company Paradesa Borneo. Their provider is Kuching Kayaking. I'm not sure how you can book directly? Our guide Bako was really lovely and experienced. The kayaking was easy going and went through forest that is Bakos own stomping ground, so he can talk a lot about his knowledge of the area (he is First Nations). We got to see a little waterfall and go swimming under some cool cliffs. Very relaxing and immersive experience. 8-3pm. Loved it.…

What is an adult care home?
An adult care home is what we used to call a rest home. It is a place for the elderly to just get some help with basic needs. Sometimes the elderly really want to stay as independent as possible. They would love to stay in their own homes, but they are starting to forget things. Maybe, they are forgetting to pay bills, leaving the stove on, forgetting to take medications, etc. They can do a lot of things and typically don’t have a lot of severe health problems. This type of elderly person just needs some supervision and a little help, and that is what an adult care home is supposed to provide.
Adult care homes should provide help with bathing, dressing, making sure that the elderly eat properly and take their medications. Adult care homes are a step down from assisted living facilities and skilled nursing facilities or nursing homes that can provide more advanced levels of care and supervision. Adult care homes are monitored by your county DSS with some further indirect oversight by the “state” DHSR. If you want more information from the state, here is their link for Adult Care Homes. Local DSS will send in Adult Home Specialists to ensure that adult care homes are doing what they are supposed to do.
The following is a summary description provided by DHSR of the differences between adult care homes and nursing homes:
“Adult Care Homes” provide care and assistance to people with problems carrying out activities of daily living and supervision to people with cognitive impairments whose decisions, if made independently, may jeopardize the safety or well-being of themselves or others and therefore require supervision. Medication in an adult care home may be administered by designated, trained staff. Smaller adult care homes that provide care to two to six unrelated residents are commonly called family care homes.
“Nursing Homes” are for people who need chronic or rehabilitative care, who, on admission are not acutely ill and who do not usually require special facilities such as an operating room, X-ray facilities, laboratory facilities, and obstetrical facilities. A “nursing home” provides care for people who have remedial ailments or other ailments, for which medical and nursing care are indicated; who, however, they are not sick enough to require general hospital care. Nursing care is their primary need, but they will require continuing medical supervision.
Unfortunately, there is one major problem with some adult care homes today- they have such a great desire to make money by filling all of their beds some homes are admitting elderly that should not be there and are not caring for them properly once they arrive. Some adult care homes can be fairly large with many beds to fill. Any empty bed means less money for the home. Many adult care homes are often really operated by large corporations. These large corporations have an intense focus on profits and put this pressure on their homes. So, local homes will often start just “getting bodies in the beds” and then work out the details later. The state compiles a List of Penalties for adult care homes across the state, you can click there to see if your home is on that list.
If homes cut corners to fill beds, the elderly will not have proper assessments at admission. These homes will not fully identify the needs of these patients. They will not come up with a Care Plan to care for them. Sometimes, they will not even get a doctor to sign off on treatment plans or medication orders. There is a trend toward this type of financially driven home. If corporate homes can run cheaper and more profitably than our good individually run “mom and pop” homes, then they have a competitive advantage.
In addition to failing to provide assessments, failing to monitor the elderly, failing to care for them, some adult care homes are admitting many that simply don’t belong there. Adult care homes are like our old rest homes, and they are not supposed to provide 24-hour nursing care or care for people with complex conditions. People are living longer due to advances in modern medicine. Many elderly have significant health conditions that require specific treatments and supervision. Some adult care homes are admitting elderly persons who have medical conditions or disease processes that are too complicated for this low level of care. However, there is that constant drive to fill beds sometimes trumps common sense and the law itself. The law requires that the elderly with complicated medical conditions go to a full nursing home, but some adult care homes will just take them anyway. If that happens, these elderly will not receive the care that they need. These elderly can also be very disruptive to the patients that are already there. So, make sure that you speak to your doctors, social workers, and local Ombudsmen to determine proper placement for yourself or someone you love.

HOMICIDE Squad detectives are investigating the death of a woman whose body was found in a car on the Mitchell Freeway southbound overnight.
The woman’s body was found in a Mitsubishi Lancer being driven on the Cedric Street off-ramp about 12.35am on Saturday, a police spokeswoman said.
A man who was the driver of the vehicle is being questioned and “assisting police with their inquiries”.
This particular stretch of the Mitchell Freeway was blocked off, becoming a crime scene as forensic officers examine the area at the Cedric Street exit. The major police investigation is causing traffic chaos on Saturday morning, with diversions in place and motorists urged to take alternative routes.
Mitchell Freeway had been shut altogether southbound between Karrinyup Road in Stirling and Hutton Street in Osborne Park.
Just after 8am on Saturday, the freeway section was reopened, but reduced to one lane.
Main Roads warned there was heavy congestion on the road between Erindale Road and Karrinyup Road.
Emergency services and traffic management are at the scene.
It’s understood a separate incident occurred in the same area of the Mitchell Freeway around the same time overnight, involving a car crashing into a barrier.
A St John Ambulance spokesman said one person was taken to Royal Perth Hospital under normal road speed following the car versus barrier incident.

I’ve heard the genre ‘steampunk’ referred to quite a bit in recent times…and I realised I didn’t really know what it meant.
According to wikipedia it is,
a sub-genre of science fiction, alternate history, and speculative fiction that came into prominence during the 1980s and early 1990s. Specifically, steampunk involves an era or world where steam power is still widely used—usually the 19th century and often Victorian era Britain—that incorporates prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy. Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic technology or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them.
Michael Pryor’s steampunk renaissance blog
Steampunk’d on youtube
There are oodles of websites and links to steampunk fanatics out there – just start googling! There a people who not only enjoy reading the genre, but choose to live their lives with a steampunk aesthetic – clothes, furniture, art, architecture!
Now I just have to work out is ‘Shadow Web’ by N.M. Browne steampunk or dystopian…?

A Study of Galatians 3
by Mark Trodd

Will God find faith on the Earth? (Luke 18:8)
The Bible is the story of faith (a willingness to trust what God has said and act on it) under pressure. It contains a record of those like Abraham who have stayed faithful and believed God, even when everything seems to be conspiring against them. When the whole world seemed to be turning their back on God, these individuals were a beacon of hope in the darkness. At certain times in history, it was these individuals whom God was able to work through to keep faith alive, and to eventually bring the solution to all our problems in CHRIST. People like Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Joshua, Ezra kept the light of faith alive – when it could have died – until the coming of Christ, the seed of Abraham (Gal 3:16).
Even in the New Testament, what looked like a defeat and the end of faith when Jesus was crucified on a cross became the launching pad for something new and far more powerful. In CHRIST, God was reconciling the whole world to Himself. The mystery of how God can forgive and be merciful to a sinful and rebellious people has been fully revealed in Christ.
The Galatians have been deceived by a distorted gospel. After re-establishing his credentials as an apostle of Christ, Paul becomes far more direct and asks “Who has bewitched you?” Satan always seeks to move us away from believing what God says to something else – and even better, to go back to the old ways when God is doing something new. Today, the same question can be asked, because too many churches are pursuing relevance – often at the expense of faithfulness towards God – as they try to reverse the pressures that are slowly pushing them out of the mainstream.
Righteousness comes by Believing in Christ, not in Self.
Paul questions the logic of trusting in the work of Christ and receiving the Spirit, and then believing those who tell them it is all about what we can do.
Abraham showed us the way when he believed what God had promised and persevered for many years until the promise was fulfilled. It was His willingness to trust in what God had said that made him a friend of God, not the perfectness of his walk. God’s promise to bless him and all the nations through Him, is being fulfilled even today – all who believe in Christ become the descendants of Abraham by faith (not through the flesh). It is the walk of faith that should define our relationship with God, especially at a time when compromise is gaining momentum.
Abraham walked with God before the Law was given. The Law tells us what pleases God and what He is against. It will either commend or condemn us, but it cannot redeem us. What the Law could not do, Christ did on the cross. Through Him, we not only died to sin and became alive to God; we also receive the promise of the Spirit whose work is to bring us into conformity with Christ. This happens through the obedience of faith in God, not the striving of faith in self.
The Law Reveals and Restrains sin; only Christ can Reconcile us and make us heirs of the Promise.
Every agreement has conditions that both parties must fulfill. The covenant Abraham made with God had promises that have never been revoked and which even the Law does not invalidate. The promise to bless Abraham and his descendants was based on God’s faithfulness, not Abraham’s (He failed numerous times). Faith has always been the way back to God – a reversal of that fateful decision in Eden – and works have always been the fruits of genuine faith. But, it has all come because of the mercy of God. The mystery of God’s mercy is revealed in the work of Christ as our substitute. He is the seed (singular) of Abraham, who ultimately fulfills the promise and applies its benefits retrospectively to all who believe.
The Law does not replace the promise but it does keep us in check (tutor) and it does reveal our need for a Savior. In Adam, we have been born into sin and a world estranged from God. The Law only confirms the truth of our situation. The people of faith throughout the OT always had some understanding of the need for a sacrifice and the concept of substitution. Offered in faith, these sacrifices were shadows of things not yet revealed (Christ), and vehicles for God’s mercy.
Without Christ, our sins remain and must be paid for. No amount of good works or acts of faith can undo or cancel them out. 1000 good deeds cannot cancel even one sin. God’s justice must be satisfied, and the good news is that Christ has done that for ALL. Faith is the conduit through which all that Christ has won can be appropriated to our lives. The Holy Spirit comes to seal the deal by beginning the process of bringing our lives into conformity with our new standing. Paul talks later about the fruit of the Spirit (Gal 5), against which there are no Laws.
“If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to the Promise.” Gal3:29
The walk of faith has always had to face the pressures of compromise and capitulation at the places where the gospel comes into conflict with a society. When I asked the Lord what themes were dearest to His heart, He led me to Isaiah 54:5.
“For your HUSBAND is your MAKER,Whose name is the Lord of hosts; and your REDEEMER is the Holy One of Israel who is the God of ALL the earth.”
The themes of creation, relationships, and salvation are clearly stated. In our society, it is these three themes that have been distorted and placed under great pressure as the church has lost its voice of authority. The themes of evolution, self-actualization and tolerance have taken more and more people away from the truth. But, God can do much when He has faithful people to work with – people willing to stand firm on the WORD and trust Him when it gets costly to do so.
Galatians is about calling churches to be faithful to the message they received and to the Lord who saved them. Paul knew that when Truth is sacrificed for the sake of peace, in the end all you get is confusion and lawlessness.
1. “Abraham believed God and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.” He believed God; therefore he lived his life accordingly. Since faith is very practical, what are the areas where you are learning to trust God more than you have been? Are there areas where you have really struggling to believe God and live accordingly?
2. “...you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” What does it mean to be clothed with Christ? What is the role of the Holy Spirit in this process? How does the obedience of faith relate to this?
3. Paul said in 2 Corinthians 4:13 said “I believe, therefore I spoke.”
What does your therefore point to?
Faith is more than just believing in a god – most people do that – it is about a daily walk with the God who created the Heavens and the Earth.

DARE TO LIVE AND DARE TO DIE
For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's. (Romans 14: 8)
A principle of the Christian is to dare to live but also dare to die. Why? Because we have assurance of eternal life. We have no fear of death. Our lives are the arena to prove our love for Jesus by loving others. That is true life!
Those who will live in Heaven are those who choose a heavenly lifestyle. This is God’s plan that we will lead others by example. Eternal life isn’t just after we die, but it begins now on earth through our relationship with Jesus.
For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. (Philippians 1:21). This is a verse that should motivate us to begin our eternal life right now.
Our life is not our own. We‘ve been bought with a price.

Zimbabwe government has begun a process of setting up the Robert Mugabe University with the University of Zimbabwe expected to help in the establishment, the Herald reports.
The University will be built in honour of President Mugabe’s contribution to the education sector in the country.
The specialised Skills University will be owned by the Robert Mugabe Foundation which would be established in due course, the report says.
The mandate of the Robert Mugabe University is still under consideration.
Higher and Tertiary Education, Science and Technology Development Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo said that the University intends to be a ‘SMART’ University focusing on high-end skills development, hardware engineering, software engineering and others.
Prof Moyo said just like any other African country, Zimbabwe needed to have a University named after President Mugabe.
“We should have a university named after President Mugabe, although we have a Robert Mugabe School Of Intelligence. This is not enough, we should honour our founding father, President Mugabe, for his contribution to this nation.” the report quotes Moyo say.
He compared other countries such as South Africa having a Nelson Mandela University, Kenyatta University and Moi University from Kenya, stating that the country needs a successful university signifying the country’s exceptional leadership.
