Reinvestment For New Beginnings
“I don’t want to see my church die.” These were the words of a faithful member who was added to the “cradle roll” of her lifelong church months before she was ever born. Her whole religious life was recorded in the history of this South Carolina Baptist church. Her parents were founding members of the church and placed her on the “cradle roll” before she was ever born. She was dedicated to the Lord as a baby, baptized as a young teen, married to her husband of many years, and gathered with family and friends to honor his home-going. Almost every meaningful event in her life happened within the walls of this old church. The thought of it closing was too great a burden to bear, but keeping the doors open was becoming more and more difficult with each passing month.
As I met with her and three other remaining members of the church, the number of tears shed were many times greater than the viable options for continuing the church’s legacy in the community. But within the heart of these remaining members was a burden for their community that compelled them to find an answer for the neighbors surrounding where we gathered. Who would tell them about Jesus if this church closed?
There is nothing that honors God when a church ceases to proclaim the hope of the gospel in their community. But each year, almost twenty South Carolina Baptist churches pronounce a final benediction never to gather again for worship. The history books are closed, the property is sold to another congregation or lies abandoned as a memorial to days of former glory.
What if there were a way to reinvest the remaining resources to start something new for future generations to discover the hope of Jesus? What if the buildings that were once built for worship and discipleship could be reinvested in a new ministry or mission?
ReInvest: an existing congregation experiences new life through closing with dignity and investing its remaining resources in a life-giving congregation or mission.
“This community needs a church and I want to do whatever it takes to make sure this church is here for them.” When the matriarch of the church spoke those words, the conversation changed to hope and a vision to continue the mission in a new way.
The church was first organized when the suburban sprawl began, and young aspiring families moved out of the city and away from the farm to raise their families in the prosperity of the post-World War II era. New homes were built for middle class, Anglo families and the church quickly became the center of their community. But as common in many other suburban areas, the demographics started to change rapidly as minorities started occupying homes surrounding the church, school aged children started attending a new campus across town and new job opportunities developed in other areas. Members of the church soon began driving to church from miles away and lost their gospel influence in their original community.
But on this historic day, the remaining four Anglo members of Sylvia Circle Baptist Church in Rock Hill, chose to reinvest their resources so that a new mission or church could begin. They asked questions about finding an urban church planter that understood the needs of the community and could reach them with the gospel. They considered all the changes that would need to take place so that minority population surrounding the church could benefit from the building and land once purchased by former members. The conversation grew difficult, as if they were grieving, but not without hope for a better day.
Each of them loved gathering together on Sunday for their one Sunday school class and sitting under the teaching of their preacher of many years, but the need for a community church that reflected the demographics of the neighborhood was greater than their own needs. It was the embodiment of Jesus’ teaching, “unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit” (John 12:24). The resources of Sylvia Circle Baptist Church will yield a harvest of souls for future generations because of the faith and sacrifice of her four remaining members.
Through a partnership with Park Baptist Church, the South Carolina Baptist Convention and others, a new beginning is coming soon to Rock Hill, so that all in the community will know the hope of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Churches at-risk of future decline or closure have options to continue their mission through an intentional process guided by your Director of Missions or the South Carolina Baptist Convention team. Some churches will benefit from revitalization, others through reSTARTing. But there are some of our churches across the state that could reinvest their resources and prepare the way for new beginnings.
Your first step toward discovering which option is best for the church begins with completing a short, online questionnaire to initiate a conversation with your South Carolina Baptist Convention team. Click HERE to begin the questionnaire. Or you may email our team at email@example.com.

The Director-General of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), Ambassador Ahmet Üzümcü, met today with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada, the Honourable Stéphane Dion, at OPCW Headquarters in The Hague.
The Director-General updated the Minister of Foreign Affairs on his recent high-level consultations with the Syrian Arab Republic. Ambassador Üzümcü then briefed him on the OPCW’s work with its member states to address the threat of use of chemical weapons by non-state actors as well as on the future priorities of the Organisation.
Ambassador Üzümcü conveyed his deep gratitude to Canada for its generous contributions in recent years towards the OPCW’s work in Syria and Libya, totalling almost €17 million. This amount includes €2.5 million for the OPCW’s Trust Fund for Syria Missions and €1.8 million for the OPCW-United Nations Joint Investigative Mechanism’s efforts to determine accountability for chemical weapons use in Syria. Both contributions were announced in February 2016.
“Canada’s steadfast support for the OPCW’s mission has made the world a much safer and secure place. Today, we have reaffirmed our resolve to jointly meet future challenges, as only concerted action can bring effective solutions,” said the Director-General.
Minister Dion remarked, “The OPCW is an integral part of the global disarmament architecture. Recent chemical weapons use in Syria and Iraq demonstrates that the Organisation’s mission is as vital and pressing as ever. Canada is proud to support the OPCW’s untiring efforts to rid the world of this inhumane class of weaponry.”

European Union (EU) Delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS has urged political parties and other stakeholders in the country to think outside the box on ways to ensure increased participation of women in politics.
Head of EU group, Ambassador Ketil Karlsen, made the call at â€œStakeholdersâ€™ Roundtable with Policymakers on Improving Womenâ€™s Political Participation and Inclusionâ€™â€™ in Abuja.
The roundtable was organised by House of Representativesâ€™ Committee on Women in Parliament in conjunction with the Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre (PLAC) and the EU.
Karlsen said that there was still a wide gap in women participation in politics in Nigeria.
â€œI am encouraging everybody to think out of the box, think of new ways of engaging women in politics, how to engage the young women movement and ensure that women have real opportunity of engaging in politics,” Karlsen said.
He said that a lot could be done structurally to secure necessary positions for women in all aspects of the society, in governance and in political parties.
â€œIf there is a will there is also a way to do it.
â€œThere should not be an excuse that the women themselves are not ready or do not have the qualifications or intelligence, power or vision to contribute, because they do.
â€œOn the contrary, we are in a situation where we are losing out the opportunity, where we are having contributions from a very significant number of people in Nigeria.
â€œSo, my hope is looking into next elections; decisive steps would be taken. It is an opportunity for political parties and leaders to show resolve and to open up for having more participation for women and youths.
â€œBeyond that, there should be reforms that would help them in the long time,â€™â€™ Karlsen said.
He commended the organisers of the event, saying it was another opportunity to engage in dialogue.
The EU official called on the participants to reach out to the grassroots.
He said that democracy should not be about getting into power but about what the power should be used for in terms of providing real and tangible solutions to problems facing citizens.
He said that EU was supporting ongoing processes to support Nigeriaâ€™s democracy for more inclusion and more participation.
In his remarks, Speaker of House of Representatives, Mr Yakubu Dogara, who was represented by Hon. Joan Mrakpor, advised women not to see politics as something different from other professions.
Dogara said that if women could excel in other professions, they could also excel in politics without depending on men to hold their hands.
He also called for emulation of actions such as framework and appointments that would encourage more women participation.
â€œFor instance, the governor of Delta, Ifeanyi Okowa, made it mandatory that all local governments in the state must have a woman as deputy chairman, while certain number of councillorship seats were reserved for women,â€™â€™ Dogara said.
The Executive Director of PLAC, Mr Clement Nwankwo, said it was unacceptable that women who constituted more than 52 per cent of Nigeriaâ€™s population would be excluded from decision-making and governance.
Nwankwo said the aim of the roundtable was to improve on women participation ahead of 2019 general election.

You have to run your display tank fallow (fish less) for about 2 months to get rid of ich. You must also take action with the fish you have in QT by either copper dosing or hyposalinity to kill the parasite. Then any future fish you purchase must in QT and treated or you risk reintroducing ich back into your system.
On the other hand, a tank contaminated with ich is not the be-all-end-all. Many people have ich in their tanks, but if you keep your parameters stable, feed high quality food, and make your tank as stress-free as possible, your fish can fight of ich easily.
It can survive in a fishless system for several months. If you really want to get it out of your display tank, you need to pull all the fish out and let it run fallow as mentioned above. After that, you have to quarantine all new arrivals and keep LFS water out of your system.

A Note on Measurement Scales and Statistical Testing
Meijer, Rob R.; Oosterloo, Sebie J.
Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, v6 n3 p198-204 Jul 2008
In elementary books on applied statistics (e.g., Siegel, 1988; Agresti, 1990) and books on research methodology in psychology and personality assessment (e.g., Aiken, 1999), it is often suggested that the choice of a statistical test and the choice of statistical operations should be determined by the level of measurement of the data. Although schemes based on this idea will in many situations lead to reasonable choices, a more liberal attitude towards the choice of tests is advocated. Depending on the deviations from the null hypotheses that the researcher expects, it can be quite reasonable, for example, to use Wilcoxon's rank sum test when comparing two groups on the basis of "nominal data." Examples are given to illustrate our propositions.

Two days ago, Netflix published a brand new trailer for their action-comedy named Murder Mystery which is set for release on Netflix in the middle of June 2019. This seems to be a promising project once again, clearly standing out in the midst of a whole lot of poor and boring productions.
It is easy to understand that this is a bit most costly production for Netflix by looking at the characters involved. In Murder Mystery, we meet Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston in the main roles. They have been married for a long time, but finally they are taking a holiday from their jobs (after 15 years) to relax and enjoy life in Europe. But, on the flight they get to know this billionaire, and somehow they ends up joining him on his luxury yacht.
Everything seems perfect, until they wake up in the middle of the night hearing a gunshot. Someone has been killed, and the characters of Aniston and Sandler are suspected of being the killers. This is when the action starts and we get to follow them as they try to find the real killers, without getting caught themselves by the police.

Do you want to know more about Murder Mystery yourself? Check the trailer beneath.
It might be worth knowing that this is a Netflix original production. As a result, we should get access to this all across the world at the same time. There has been a few examples when things have been otherwise, for example, with the recent Jenifer Aniston movie named Dumplin. The movie was released on Netflix in the USA and in Canada, but in lots of nations in Europe, it was first showed in the theaters, and it still cannot be streamed on Netflix.

2012-03-24 Vatican Radio‘Bienvenido al corazon de Mexico’ – ‘Welcome to the heart of Mexico’ are the words emblazoned on a giant billboard at the entrance to Guanajuato airport and the people of this city, at the geographical centre of the country, have certainly pulled out all the stops to welcome the Pope. The airport is situated about 35 km from the city centre of Leon, and as the pope mobile made its way slowly through the industrial suburbs, under the new millennium gate arching over the road and on into town, the crowds went literally wild with excitement. People of all ages had lined the route for hours, many climbing onto balconies or low roofs of buildings to get a better view, singing, waving flags, balloons and banners, or throwing yellow and white tickertape to carpet the papal route into town.
At the official welcome ceremony under a white awning set up at the airport, Mexican president Felipe Calderon proudly reminded the Pope that his nation remains one of the most Catholic countries in the world. Despite a difficult history of conflict with the state over the past century, the Church here is renowned for its deep Marian devotion and for its dedication to the successor of Peter. Pope John Paul chose Mexico for his first ever pastoral journey in 1979 and made a total of five visits to this country, though he never fulfilled his wish to visit this city and the great statue of Christ the King standing on nearby Mount Cubilete with arms outstretched across the whole region.
Loud cheers punctuated Pope Benedict’s first address to the people of Mexico as he told them he had come in the footsteps of his predecessor “as a pilgrim of faith, hope and love” to confirm them in their faith. Believers in Christ, he said, must act as a leaven in society, contributing to a respectful and peaceful coexistence based on the dignity of every human being. This dignity, he insisted, is expressed “in the fundamental right to freedom of religion in its full meaning and integrity” – a poignant message to his hosts in the Mexican government, currently debating legislation on religious liberty that would finally put an end to the anti-clerical discrimination of past decades.

Best Polishing Machine in Comparison.
Polishing Machine Reviews & Buyer Guide.
Polishing by hand – for example, to care for your car – is arduous and time-consuming. Polishing machines make this work much easier for you. As with many items from the hardware store, interpreting the data sheet requires expertise and experience. We offer you orientation!
For example, your polishing machine should be capable of at least 3,000 rotations per minute to take on even the most stubborn scratches. Devices with so-called soft start do not start directly at the highest power level, but increase their power step by step. This enables particularly controlled polishing. Find the polishing machine with which you can bring your surfaces to a high gloss in our product table.
Polishing Machine Buying Guide:
How to choose the right product from the above polishing machine test or comparison.
- Polishing by hand is very tiring. For this reason, there are polishing machines. These are tools that are used for smoothing surfaces, for example, car paints. They are usually used after a surface has been sanded with a sanding machine.
- Polishing machines can work in two ways: With a rotary motion or an eccentric motion. In rotary motion, the polishing pad rotates in one position. With the eccentric machine, the platen does not rotate in one position, but additionally elliptically like a pendulum.
- For high-gloss polishes and sensitive surfaces, low speeds are usually helpful. For deeper scratches, correspondingly higher revolutions are needed. But also the polishing types (rotation & eccentric) influence quality as well as speed of polishing.
Regular car washes and extensive polishing are the order of the day for enthusiasts. And if there is ever a scratch in the paintwork, the world briefly comes to an end for most people.
Polishing machines help to get rid of stubborn scratches. With these tools, you can literally give old, rusty sheet metal surfaces a new shine. But car polishing is not the only application for polishing equipment. In our 2021 polishing machine comparison, we reveal how you can use them to beautify wood and metal surfaces. We also explain when you need which speed and what the differences are between rotary and eccentric polishing machines.
What types of polishing machines are there?
Rotary polishers are more for experienced professionals
Before we get into the buying guide, let’s make a basic distinction between the eccentric and rotary modes: rotary machines rotate in one position, creating extremely high temperatures. This makes it possible to quickly polish away deep scratches, but it also carries the risk of unintentionally removing too much paint just as quickly. Clearly: a tool for professionals.
The turntable of eccentric machines does not rotate in one position, but swings out to all sides like a pendulum (elliptical motion). This means that temperatures are not as high and you do not run the risk of ruining the surface to be polished.
Eccentric polishing machine
- easy to use: optimal for beginners
- gentle polishing
- very low risk of new damage to the paint
- there are also models with (forced) rotation
- fast polishing is not possible
- deep scratches disappear only slowly or not at all
Rotary polishing machine
- enables particularly fast polishing
- deep scratches disappear quickly
- difficult to operate: rather optimal for professionals
- heats the paint extremely fast
- Risk of new damage is high
Speeds: adjustable and cover a wide range
To achieve a good polishing result, you need different temperatures. These cannot be set directly, but can only be influenced indirectly via the speed and position of the turntable:
fast & punctual rotary movements = high temperatures
slow & eccentric rotary movements = low temperatures
Therefore, the speeds should be adjustable even on inexpensive polishing machines. The larger the speed range that can be adjusted, the more control you have over the polishing result.
A potential polisher favorite must be able to handle revolutions at least in the range between 600 to 3,500 rpm.
Wattage consumption: 800 W is quite enough
A high wattage draw is usually an indication of a powerful machine, so the best polishers should draw at least 800 watts. Particularly powerful polishers draw more than 1,200 watts.
A powerful motor will keep the rotational speed constant when you’re removing stubborn scratches. That’s because during intensive polishing, you’ll need to press the tool a little harder on the surface to remove more of the uneven paint.
A weak motor would stop every time too much pressure is applied. With such a weak motor, you would not be able to remove scratches and could only do finishing polishes.
For high gloss: the more even a surface is, the more it will shine. When polishing, the machine smooths out minimal imperfections by abrading the paint or metal on a nanometer scale. In this sense, polishing is grinding at the molecular level.
Smooth start-up and handles for perfect handling
Soft start for consistent results – Soft start and two handles give you the best control over the machine.
A soft start is very important for polishing, as you often turn off the machine to reapply polish and then continue polishing. If the polisher immediately starts spinning at high speed, the polish will splash to all sides and the platter may pull you across the surface rather than giving you control. The result is dents, new scratches, or uneven polishing (holograms).
More control with more handles
Multiple handles are essential so you don’t just hold the polisher by the housing. Two handles give you better control over the movements of the tool. If the handles also have a so-called soft grip, you can grip even tighter because the handles are padded.
Small weight for big polishes
If you polish longer than 30 min, you notice every gram of the device.
Do not underestimate the weight of a polisher, because polishing is a long process. Only professionals polish a complete car under an hour.
A device that weighs heavier than 4 kg will not win a polisher test. However, if the weight is less than 3 kg, even inexperienced polishers will last a long time.
Quieter than 85 dB is tolerable
Since some polishing projects can take several minutes, quiet machines are more pleasant in the long run. In addition, there will be less annoyance with the neighbors.
Polishing machines, like grinders, are noisy power tools, but they should not be louder than 90 dB. Better are 80 to 85 dB, which corresponds to a loud conversation. Top models are even quieter than 80 dB.
Polishing pads should be replaceable
If the polishing pad is exchangeable, you remain flexible for different polishing tasks.
The larger the polishing pad, the more suitable it is for large surfaces, but the worse it is for getting into narrow angles. Most polishing machines come with a 180 mm diameter plate. This is already in the upper range and optimal for wide engine hoods.
Small polishing plates have a diameter of about 120 mm and correspond to the size of a CD. As long as the plate is interchangeable, the size supplied should not stop you when buying a polishing machine.
Other accessories are secondary
Don’t be blinded by an oversupply of accessories: Polishing hoods and machine are usually cheap goods.
Accessories for challenging polishing projects can get pricey, so included polishing hoods and polishing supplies are rarely of high quality. Be skeptical when online stores offer polishing machines with a lot of accessories at a low price. This usually hides an inferior product.
However, if you only polish occasionally or just want to try it out, you can definitely take advantage of these offers. Cheap polishing machines and accessories are sufficient for infrequent use.
How to polish the car properly?
Other types of polishing machines
There are also compressed air polishing machines, which are particularly suitable for hard-to-reach places. Polishing machines with rechargeable batteries get into every corner without cables or hoses. However, due to their rechargeable batteries, they are rarely as powerful as models with compressed air or power cable.
To make sure your car doesn’t have any dents or unsightly hologram patterns afterwards, we’ve put together the most important basics for polishing your car with a polishing machine:
Be sure to tape off pure plastic parts before polishing. If you have to polish painted plastic parts, do so only with a low pressure.
Take breaks to allow the paintwork to cool down and, if necessary, use lubricant spray to additionally cool the paintwork in these areas.
Use polishing pads with different degrees of hardness when polishing. These should not be too hard, as this can have a damaging effect on the paintwork. Soft pads are much gentler on the material.
Large pads for more protection: The diameter of the polishing pad should always be slightly larger than the diameter of the polishing plate. Otherwise, the polishing pad may damage the paintwork.
Move the polisher evenly and continuously.
Sanding pastes are ideal for touching up irregularities as polishes. High-gloss polishes are ideal for removing scratches on the car and are gentler on the paint.
Apply the polish to the polishing pad. Caution: do not apply to the paint.
4-6 pea-sized dabs are suitable for approximately 40 x 40 cm of paint surface.
When polishing, never stay too long on one spot, ideally work according to a cross-walk pattern (move the machine in even movements in a checkerboard pattern with gyrating movements over the paint).
Gently polish curves: Apply minimal pressure to corners, edges and curves and glide lightly over these zones. This helps to avoid dents, as experience has shown that the polishing sponge does not lie fully on these areas.
Beginners work with the lowest possible pressure and a gentle pad at the start.
If you cannot determine a polishing result in this way, increase the pressure, the speed or the hardness of the pad.
After polishing, use special sealants with protective substances and waxes.
Finally, go over any unevenness again by hand with a polishing cloth.
Polishing wood, metal, stone and plastic properly
Different materials usually just need different polishes.
Although the most common use for polishing machines is in the automotive sector, it is possible to polish much more than cars: for example, wood or stone shells can be polished to a shine. But you can also get plastic and metal surfaces mirror-bright with a polisher.
After the wood has been sanded with the finest sandpaper, you can start polishing: Use especially fine, waterproof sandpaper (400 grit), a primer or linen oil (cold-pressed) and pumice powder. First, spread the oil and flour evenly on the wood, then polish with the paper until the desired gloss effect is achieved.
You can use the polisher here, but by hand polishing wood also works. There should be at least one or two weeks between polishing, as the oil needs to be absorbed.
Highest speeds are usually required for bare metal.
Suitable polishing hoods for polishing metal are included with almost every machine: fur, felt, textile or foam. Greases and oils serve as polishing agents. Polishing is as simple as can be: apply the polishing agent and polish at maximum speed. For old cutlery, we recommend a mixture of butter, vinegar and salt as a polishing agent.
Similar to metal polishing, here you also polish, except that quartz sand is used as the polishing agent. For small stones, you usually do not use a hand tool, but a stationary grinding wheel.
Here it is essential to remove any dust in advance, otherwise it will act like sandpaper. Common plastic polishing pastes and waxes are suitable as polishing agents. But be careful: If the plastic is painted on the surface, the paint layer will be removed during polishing (e.g. paints). For small areas, hand force and a cloth are sufficient; for larger areas, the polishing machine is worthwhile again.

Effective today, thousands of miles of new protected bike lanes, cycle training for everyone and bikes available on prescription will be rolled out under new plans to overhaul cycling and walking in England launched by Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
The new initiative has been brought in by the PM to tackle the causes of ill health, reduce demand on the NHS and promote cycling for people’s physical and mental health.
The new plan aims to build on the significant increase in the number of people cycling during the pandemic. It sets out a comprehensive, long term vision to increase active travel and embed the benefits of walking and cycling into how we live, work and get around.
“From helping people get fit and healthy and lowering their risk of illness, to improving air quality and cutting congestion, cycling and walking have a huge role to play in tackling some of the biggest health and environmental challenges that we face,” said Johnson.
“But to build a healthier, more active nation, we need the right infrastructure, training and support in place to give people the confidence to travel on two wheels.
That’s why now is the time to shift gears and press ahead with our biggest and boldest plans yet to boost active travel – so that everyone can feel the transformative benefits of cycling.”
To encourage people to continue to take up cycling, cycle training will be made available for every child and adult who wants it, accessible through schools, local authorities or direct from cycle training schemes.
So that more people can make cycling part of their commute or daily routine, more cycle racks will be installed at transport hubs, town and city centres and public buildings, and funding will go towards new bike hangars and on street storage for people who don’t have space to keep a bike at home.
The commitments in the plan, which will be funded by the £2 billion of new money announced earlier this year for walking and cycling, also include building thousands of miles of protected cycle routes in towns and cities, boosting investment by creating a long term cycling programme, strengthening the Highway Code to better protect pedestrians and cyclists and supporting local authorities.
The project will also help increase access to e-bikes by setting up a new national e-bike programme, to help those who are older, have to travel long distances or are less fit to take up cycling.
Alongside the launch of the strategy, the first batch of bike repair vouchers worth £50 will be released to the public in a pilot scheme to encourage thousands of people get back into cycling.
By encouraging people to get their old bikes out of the back of the shed fixed and safe to ride, the scheme will help more people choose cycling over public transport as a convenient way to travel, for example when going to the shops or seeing friends.

Featured ribbon-cutting with U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and musical performances by CPS students studying with the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz
U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan acknowledged Chicago Public School (CPS) students at an exhibit opening of their artwork hosted in the Department’s auditorium with a ribbon-cutting ceremony this morning. He was joined by CPS Director of Humanities Paul Whitsitt and several other CPS administrators and teachers, as well as 16 Chicago high school students visiting Washington D.C. for the event today.
One-hundred pieces of artwork from CPS students will be displayed at the Department through April 16. They were selected in the CPS All-City Art Exhibition, an annual juried exhibit that honors outstanding achievement in the visual arts by high school students participating in district-wide art classes. The opening event also featured a musical performance by five CPS students who are studying with the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz, which also sponsored the young performers’ trip to Washington.
Secretary Duncan spoke about the importance of the arts as part of a well-rounded curriculum for all students, which is a key component of the President’s blueprint for the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. “The arts, perhaps more than any other subject, prepare young people with creativity and innovative thinking,” said Duncan.


The Mississippi National Guard's 155th Separate Armored Brigade is likely to mobilize at Camp Shelby for possible service in Iraq.
"It's on-line for Shelby,'' said Guard spokesman Lt. Col. Tim Powell. "We expect mobilization orders sometime later in the summer,'' Powell said Thursday.
The brigade, headquartered in Tupelo with 49 units throughout the state, was placed on alert last month. The 155th counts about 3,650 soldiers and includes battalions stationed in McComb, Amory, Starkville, Meridian, Monticello, Hernando, Jackson and Tupelo.
Currently, personnel at Camp Shelby, located south of Hattiesburg, are training about 4,000 troops from the Tennessee National Guard who began arriving last week.
"Word is the 155th is coming here, too,'' said Col. Daniel Zajac, commander of the 3rd Brigade, 87th Training Division, which will train both the Tennessee troops and the 155th.
Zajac said lead elements of the brigade will probably begin arriving at the sprawling training base in late July.
The 155th was mobilized in November 1990 for Operation Desert Storm. After initial processing and soldier readiness training at Camp Shelby, the brigade moved to Fort Hood, Texas, and then to the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, Calif., for additional training.
The brigade was at Fort Irwin when the war ended and did not deploy overseas.

Tempting Rever(Zorn Warriors #3) by Laurann Dohner
Brenda spent four years trapped in an unhappy marriage. She’s so desperate to start a new life somewhere safe that she’s agreed to go to another planet with a handsome alien stranger. When he’s killed, she finds herself in the home of a Zorn warrior willing to protect her until the fallen warrior’s brother arrives to claim her.
Brenda never believed in love at first sight until she gazed into the gorgeous blue eyes of Argis Rever. He’s tall, dark, sexy…the kind of guy she’s always dreamed of finding—and already bound to another human woman. She could have lived with letting the man of her dreams slip through her fingers, except he isn’t happy—the horrid woman doesn’t even want him, and will never love him.
You can also like this:
Brenda has lost a lot in her life but she’s not willing to lose the one chance at finding happiness with a man she’s falling in love with. She’s more than ready to start tempting Rever into finding his own happiness… with her.
I had a rather short area here telling a little about me but then I had more than a few people ask me to expand it so… here goes. LOL. I’m a full time home ‘supervisor’ which is a nice word for saying I’m a housewife. I’m married happily, I met my dream guy 20 years ago, and we have 4 children. I live in Southern California and I can’t function without iced coffee. I believe in romance, I’ve always been a daydreamer, and I’m a HUGE fan of books, always have been.
No, I didn’t know that I always wanted to write. I inhaled books as a child. I read entire series (Pippi Longstocking, Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys, Trixie Beldon, The Borrowers, etc) in a matter of days at a time. By the time I was nine years old I had an adult library card where I visited often. I moved on to John Saul, Stephen King, Richard Laymon, Agatha Christie, and then found romance. I was hooked. I wrote poetry in my teens and then moved on to short stories. My first book was started after I read a real bomb of a book that ticked me off with really horrible characters and a plot that was shabby at best and I thought… I could do better. LOL.
I wrote my first book which will probably never see the light of day in the early 90’s. I wrote a series of a few books from it. I’m a series fan! I kept writing for fun, wrote MANY books and then in 2009 I decided to try to get published. I wrote my first Sci Fi romance and Ral’s Woman came to be. I submitted it and with a little tweaking, Ellorascave sent me an acceptance letter. It was kind of a ‘Cinderella’ experience for me. It’s been a terrific ride so far and I’m really happy that I finally had the time to commit to writing full time. It’s a dream come true.
Tempting Rever By Laurann Dohner Book Reviews
With more and more women becoming victims to spousal abuse, wouldn’t it be wonderful if they could each find a way to start off a new phase of their lives on another planet with a sexy guy who cares about them? That is exactly what our heroine has chosen to do. Yet even now her life seems to contain more disappointment than satisfaction–she is once again finding herself facing a future full of uncertainty and questions. The good news: the planet where she has chosen to live is guided by the cultural norm that women are treated with care and respect–there are so few of them, and having a human mate is a sign of great status in this society. So Brenda’s hopes are high that her life is taking a positive turn.
Enter Argis Rever–a Zorn warrior and son of the leader of the planet society. He is powerful and influential as well as one of those guys that makes a gal’s heart beat faster. In addition, he is a person of honor who already has a human mate, and in spite of the fact that she is unkind, insulting to his culture, demanding and hurtful in her words and ways, Rever is caring, considerate, attempting to please her and find a way to make her happy. Won’t happen because she is just a really unhappy person on the inside. Brenda is immediately taken with Rever and their attraction is almost instant, but he is honor-bound to care for his mate, and she is honor-bound to go with the brother of the man she has agreed to marry. This unknown brother is a spaceship commander and won’t be able to “collect” her for a week, so Brenda is Rever’s guest and under his protection for these seven days.
Things get complicated, ugly with the other woman in the house, tense between Brenda and Rever. This story is really a metaphor of what societies could do to protect their women, but in many ways the values here are very conservative and traditional–almost like medieval times on planet Earth. It is fun reading and really a very pleasant love story between Brenda and Rever. All is not easy nor are there simple solutions to the impasse between them. There are binding rules and no apparent outs. Needless to say there are twists and turns, surprises and some events that really unexpected. Suffice it to say that the reader will not be bored. I think there are some writing cliches that get used a little much, and the animosity between Brenda and Rever’s mate goes on and on and on and on. I know that this is one way a writer builds the tension and I appreciate that. I was glad when it ended. I think the lesson in the way that this all plays out was, for me, that people are people–selfish, generous, noble, small-minded–in other words, there are both bad and good individuals everywhere, even in other cultures in the universe.
So fantasy readers and romance readers will find this interesting and a literary piece that is very enjoyable. I don’t think it is a novella that is a true heavy weight. But it certainly kept my interest and I felt it was a very good read. I give this work a rating of 4 out of 5.

Background: Thrombosis directly affects the quality of life with increased mortality. The RPL5 (L5) gene on intron 6 on chromosome 1p22, rs6604026 is associated with multiple sclerosis risk, whereas RPL9 (L9) on 8 exons on chromosome 4p14 has been documented so far as being an essential involvement in the proliferation of protein synthesized cells mostly by gene products. Objective: The aim of this work was to assess genetic variants of RPL5 and RPL9 and thrombosis to characterize their role in the diagnosis of thrombosis among the Saudi population. Methods: The cross-sectional study involved 100 Saudi patients diagnosed with thrombosis (arterial or venous) in 50 healthy individuals as controls in the same age and sex groups. Primers were designed RPL5 and RPL9 for molecular analysis. The Sanger System ABI-3730xL (Hong Kong) automatic sequencing was used for DNA sequencing. Statistical analysis was performed using the Prism 5 and SPSS version-21 programs. Results: The male / female age ratio was 66.7 / 57.4, and the mean age was 61.2 years. Most of the patients were self-identifiable and without a previous history of thrombosis (61.0%). Most of the patients had just been diagnosed, that is, in the last five years (74.0%), about 43% of the patients underwent treatment using combination therapy (Aspirin and oral anticoagulants). New gene variants of RPL5 (5 SNPs) and RPL9 (9 SNPs) were detected in Saudi thrombotic patients. Conclusion: Mutations in RPL5 and RPL9 were reported in all thrombotic patients, represented by a new variant of the ribosomal protein gene and correlated with thrombosis in the Saudi population. These results may reflect an association between the ribosomal protein SNP gene and the incidence and progression of thrombosis in the Saudi population.

Fly Me to the Moon - the Vanilla Crescent Moon!
Nuremberg Vanillekipferl or Vanilla Crescents
They are certainly one of the most popular cookies at Christmas time – the Vanilla Crescent or Vanillekipferl. Light and fluffy vanilla batter, the classic crescent shape generously sprinkled with icing sugar…it’s moon-shaped yumminess!
“Kipferl” is a dialect word common in Bavaria and Austria referring to a crescent-shaped pastry (in Austria croissants are also called crescents).
Recipe for quick Vanillekipferl
Here’s a recipe for simple version of the Vanilla Crescent cookies:
- 250 g flour (2 cups)
- 80 g icing sugar (about 2/3 cup)
- 150 g butter (best if it’s really cold)(about 1 and 1/3 sticks)
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar (Dr. Oetker)
- 150 g ground almonds (also known as almond meal – you can grind your own blanched almonds in a food processor or buy almond meal in the nut and/or cake mix section of the grocery store)
- 1 pinch of salt
Combine the ingredients for the dough in a mixing bowl and knead. Tip: Making sure the butter is very cold and is cut up into small cubes makes this step easier). Wrap the dough in saran wrap and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
A vegan version of vanilla crescents can be prepared by leaving out the eggs and replacing the butter with margarine. Even diabetics can enjoy vanilla crescents by omitting the eggs and replacing the butter by diet margarine.
So how do you get the dough into the right shape?
There are various options for forming the dough into the crescent shape. The most common is to simply shape the dough by hand. Form the dough into a large roll and then cut into pieces about 0.5 cm thick. Then gently roll these pieces and bend them into the crescent shape.
You could also use a crescent-shaped cookie cutter for Vanillekipferl. Roll out the dough onto a floured surface, press in the cutter and…finished.
Or, option 3: purchase a baking tray made especially for Vanillekipferl. Press the dough lightly into the forms of the tray and bake. I understand that it is a bit difficult getting them out at the end of the process.
Last Step: Preheat oven to 190 degrees Celsius (375 Fahrenheit). Place formed vanilla crescents on a baking sheet leaving some space between each crescent. Bake for 10 – 12 minutes. After baking and while the crescents are still warm (although not hot) place each cookie in a bowl of icing sugar mixed with vanilla sugar and turn to coat and place on a dry surface to cool.
How does Oma make the Crescents so light and fluffy?
Really good vanilla crescents melt on the tongue, seem weightless and are wonderfully fluffy. Accomplishing what your Oma made seem so easy is all in the preparation of the dough – use really cold butter and allow the dough to rest in the fridge for at least an hour and preferably two. Professional bakers would even refrigerate the mixing bowl before preparing the dough.
The flavor of vanilla takes time to unfold. The little pastries have the best flavor after about a week. Vanillekipferl will keep up to six weeks when stored in an airtight container. Because the pastry is very fragile, individual layers should be separated between parchment paper.
No time to bake? Simply order Vanillekipferl
If you’re like me, you have good intentions of baking at Christmas but get overwhelmed with all the busy-ness of the season. No problem…you can order Vanillekipferl and many other German Christmas treats from Gingerbread World: Lebkuchen from the bakeries in Nuremberg as well as German chocolates and marzipans.

The "9 to 5" singer is tipped to appear in the Sunday Legends slot on the Pyramid Stage.
It would mark the 67-year-old’s debut appearance at the June festival at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset.
"Dolly is perfect for the Sunday Legends slot. It didn't take any convincing - she's always wanted to play Glastonbury," a source told The Sun newspaper.
Parton is expected to perform a set list comprising the greatest hits from her lengthy career.
The country singer has already announced release plans for her new album, Blue Smoke. Parton will release the record in Australia on 31 January 2014, to coincide with her headline tour dates in the country.
The UK leg of the tour will take Parton to London's O2 Arena over the Glastonbury weekend, but there is no performance scheduled on the Sunday, further fuelling Glastonbury reports.
The source added: "It is being kept free deliberately. She'll get a helicopter straight down on Sunday, or maybe even Saturday after the show."
Parton would be joining the other two acts which have so far been confirmed for the 2014 festival: Arcade Fire, who will be headlining on the Friday, and Lily Allen.

Beyonce and Jay-Z are still together, despite a divorce rumor from exactly a year ago. Gossip Cop originally busted this claim on July 28, 2017. Now we can explain how the passage of time has helped further prove it was wrong.
This time last year, the National Enquirer told readers Beyonce was on the verge of a $1 billion divorce, and a parenting clash over daughter Blue Ivy was to blame. The supermarket tabloid accused the superstar of "pushing Blue Ivy to the catwalk" and pushing husband Jay-Z "further away." The couple was said to be arguing over whether their young daughter should pursue modeling.
The magazine claimed Jay-Z was objecting to Blue Ivy's "glamorous red carpet appearances," because he knew "where this is all going and Beyonce hasn't made a secret of it." But a so-called "insider" maintained the singer felt "like modeling would be a perfect springboard for Blue Ivy to achieve success in other ways." The couple allegedly "blew up" at each other, though no specifics were given about a possible divorce.
What's more, the article contained a glaring factual error. The outlet claimed this potentially marriage-ending dust-up was taking place "just two weeks after the birth of [their] twins." But as the birth certificates for Rumor and Sir show, they were born about a month and a half before this tale was peddled. The publication wanted readers to believe it had a "shocking scoop," but couldn't get basic facts right or back up its divorce premise.
Now 365 days have gone by, and its abundantly clear the couple hasn't divorced, nor have they stopped Blue Ivy from being in the spotlight. This past March, for example, Blue Ivy joined Beyonce and Jay-Z on the red carpet for the Wearable Art Gala. She also sat in the front row at the 2018 Grammys. And in more evidence that her famous father doesn't object to his little girl being on display, Jay-Z put Blue Ivy in his "Family Feud" music video.
It's also worth remembering that even longer than 12 months ago, in January of 2017, this same tabloid also claimed Beyonce and Jay-Z were on the brink of a "billion-dollar divorce." So egregiously wrong was that article, Gossip Cop named it one of our top rumors of 2017. Showing their continued unity, and further underscoring how bogus these tales were, Beyonce and Jay Z are currently on their "On The Run II" tour, which is scheduled through early October.

Liberia: African Development Bank Group approves $5.12 million financing for Emergency Food Production Program

The Board of directors of the African Development Bank Group has approved financing for the Emergency Food Production Program in Liberia. This paves the way for the government to support farmers as they increase climate resilient food production and mitigate the impact of the ongoing war in Ukraine.
The funding includes a grant of $2.28 million and a loan of $2.84 million from the Bank Group’s Transition Support Facility.
Agriculture is a major part of Liberia’s economy. It contributes about 26% to GDP. The country’s major crops are rubber, rice, cassava, bananas and palm oil, with cassava and rice being the primary staple food crops.
Overall agricultural productivity, however, is low. This is because of such factors as weak basic infrastructure, including farm equipment and inadequate farm-to-market roads. There is also limited application of fertilizers and pesticides, and inadequate food storage capacity. The civil conflict the country experienced between 1989 and 2003 and the Ebola outbreak of 2014-2015 compounded challenges even further.
Nearly 50% of Liberia’s population is considered food insecure, and childhood malnutrition is persistent. Currently, 35% of children under 5 are stunted and 15% of these children are underweight.
The food production program in Liberia is part of sector budget support under the African Development Bank’s African Emergency Food Production Facility (AEFPF). This facility is designed to increase climate resilient food production for Africa’s farmers in the wake of such global shocks as the war in Ukraine and rising fuel and fertilizer prices.
The African Emergency Food Production Facility will provide 20 million African smallholder farmers with certified seeds. It will increase access to agricultural fertilizers and enable them to rapidly produce 38 million tons of food – a $12 billion increase in food production in just two years.
The Liberia program—which will be implemented from 2022 to 2024—will enable the government to provide direct smart subsidies (that create incentives for private sector investment in the inputs market without distorting the market), to vulnerable farmers. The financing will also enable the government to facilitate farmers’ access to improved seeds and fertilizers.
“We welcome this timely and highly awaited approval, which will improve food and nutrition security in Liberia and the regulatory environment for climate-smart agriculture,” said the African Development Bank’ country manager for Liberia, Benedict Kanu. He added: “With healthy Liberians being arguably the greatest asset the country can have, hardly any other priority could be more pressing than addressing food insecurity to safeguard the calorie and nutrition needs of Liberians and protecting their human development.”
The African Emergency Food Production Facility has already benefitted 26 countries in Africa with 26 programs worth $1.257 billion.Source African Development Bank Group

It is challenging individuals, inventors, companies or universities to come up with ideas to change the way people think and work in construction.
The move comes as the industry faces intense demands to increase production and build more complex structures, often on brownfield sites in dense busy cities.
“The sheer volume of work going on is testing the industry,” said Rob Perrins, managing director of the Berkeley Group.
“Companies and staff are running flat out to gear up production and tackle the housing crisis.
“The industry is having to work with less experienced people, in multiple languages, with plant and equipment in high demand. That generates fresh hazards in a business that is inherently risky.
“Fundamentally, I don’t believe this is a problem you can solve directly with money. It demands fresh ideas, which is where this Innovation Fund comes in.”
How to apply for innovation funding
Berkeley’s Innovation Fund will make grants of between £250 and £250,000 over the next two years.
Anyone with a bright idea which will lead to safer sites, a healthier workforce or develop the people who work in construction is invited to bid for investment.

The mass adoption of Bitcoin and other digital assets has been one of the most important goals that the crypto industry has set. There have been a lot of moves made in this direction and they continue.
Now, it’s been just revealed that 11,800 BTC reportedly outflow from Coinbase.
Institutional accumulation continues, 11,800 bitcoin outflow from Coinbase.
— unfolded. (@cryptounfolded) May 1, 2021
Someone commented: “This can be inaccurate. Because many unknown wallets are assumed as outflow, while many of them are actually internal transfer. It happened so many times in the past.”
Another follower said: “This is def OTC at coinbase. They are not spot buying 12k BTC over and over again.”
Speaking of Coinbase, the platform has been making headlines a lot lately.
Coinbase is rumoured to acquire data analytics firm Skew
Coinbase is making headlines again following the latest reports that the platform might acquire the data analytics firm Skew.
This is the first acquisition deal following its blockbuster direct listing earlier this month.
It’s been revealed Coinbase began trading publicly on April 14, will plug Skew’s data – which spans derivatives and spot volumes, charts, and information around bitcoin’s volatility – into its institutional prime brokerage platform, Coinbase Prime, according to the latest reports coming from The Block Crypto.
In other news, Yahoo Finance just dropped an article that says the fact that crypto just went mainstream.
“Starting today, PayPal users in the US can link their accounts to Coinbase to make it easier to buy digital currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin,” the notes read.
They also reported that “Previously, funding those purchases often meant using a debit card or a more time-consuming method like a wire transfer. With today’s update, Coinbase says you can fund your purchases “instantly.”
Stay tuned for more important news and keep your eyes peeled on the crypto market.
