I had a welcome break from campaigning last week, the sun has been beaming down, with many people flocking into Brighton and Hove, I even saw a few wounded (rather burned) people making there way home toward the stampede at Brighton train station.
Oh how I am glad after 32 years in this city my body no longer burns and simply tans to a nice golden brown nowadays. Enough about me!
The Government Is Changing The BBC Forever
Onto the beeb now, its been a testing few months for the publicly owned organisation, we have seen a freeze in increasing the licence fee, we have seen the demise of the Television Channel BBC Three, a biased political reporting which has angered many resulting in 15,000 people signing a petition to Sack The BBC Political Editor Laura Kuenssberg and now the hard hitting BAFTA Speech from Peter Kosminsky (seen below).
How Much Does The BBC Licence Fee Actually Cost
There are people out their saying that the BBC is ripping off the nation with its annual licence charge of £145.50, or £12.13 a month or just 40p per day. Lets break it down further.
The TV Cost is £8.00 per month, for this you get: BBC News, All the Channels, Live Sports, Entertainment and Documentaries, Soaps like Eastenders and all the other fabulous content they put out each year including some funding for Channel 4 News.
The Radio Cost is £2.30 per month, for this you get: Music which is a means of promoting our great, diverse and unique music culture here in the UK. Remember Radio is the beginning and is still popular, Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 3, Radio 4, Radio 5 Live, Local Radio and National i.e, wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. Not to mention the countless original plays on radio which are a launch pads for many actors careers and a way from them to learn their craft whilst entertaining millions.
The Online Cost is 61p a month, for this you get: You on-demand content, which is becoming more and more popular for example last year alone we downloaded 4 billion TV programmes on-demand and almost 1 billion Radio programmes from on-demand.
The Other Costs equate to around £1.80 per month.
What Interest Do The Government Have In The BBC?
Well if you listen to Culture Secretary John Whittingdale’s clumsy comments you would think none other than its privatisation he thinks the disappearance of the Beeb is a ‘tempting prospect’.
Like many tories right now, what they tell you to your face is not what they are secretly discussing behind closed doors, the tories have already helped shift opinion on many popular political programmes to being more biased.
This was clear last week during the Local Election Debate as reported by The Canary, this has angered many who believe just like I do that the BBC Political Editor is stirring up the Anti Semitism rows within labour, she was instrumental in the on-air resignation of Junior Labour Party Minister Stephen Doughty.
Just like the NHS, the Tories also want to dismantle and sell off our BBC to the highest bidder, and they plan to start with the other publicly funded broadcaster Channel 4, I wonder why when they are the only channel who reported on the now under police investigation Tory Election Expenses Rigging.
Let’s not forget that our media and communications sector makes up 8% of GDP, more than the oil and car industries combined.
What Are Social Media Saying About the BBC Right Now
— Emily Thornberry (@EmilyThornberry) May 8, 2016
#savetheBBC I’ll stand up for BBC when they stop being daily Govt Propaganda Broadcasters! Headed by the Tories,dictated to by the Tories!
— Loobyloo (@joanna_caron) May 9, 2016
— Matthew Todd (@MrMatthewTodd) May 8, 2016
As I said and shown above by Matthew Todd , the government will stop at no end before they divide and conquer our communities and try to tear the nation apart.
The BBC Is entering it’s centenary in 2022 – Lets save this great institution for another 100 years and stop the government destroying another Great British Success Story.

It's hard to pass on a positive message if no one ever hears the message.
It may help many people but it won't help anyone if they never hear about it.
First I tried everything that I thought was worth a try yet it didn't work.
After finding someone to get advice on how to spread the positive message, they too realized that they also saw it was going to be nearly impossible.
So now what?
There is no doubt that the powerful positive message behind JUST FLUSH IT would help people.
But it won't help anyone if they never hear the powerful positive message behind JUST FLUSH IT.
I am wandering if you will help me spread the positive message behind JUST FLUSH IT?
Give those you love peace of mind.
Let them know that they need to take the painful experiences in their lives and JUST FLUSH IT OUT OF THEIR MINDS SO PEACE OF MIND HAS ROOM TO GET IN.

Creel will handle production, versioning and distribution of the society’s entire print lineup—including the print and digital editions of The Christian Science Monitor. “This was a significant move for our company,” said Michael Zanoni, manager of the CSPS.

LAS VEGAS—Commercial printer and publishing solutions provider Creel Printing has acquired Digital Lizard in an effort to provide customers with a one-stop solution.
Digital Lizard will continue to operate from its Idaho facility, which houses eight HP Indigo presses, and the staff will remain intact. “Digital Lizard is a tremendous asset to the Creel platform,” said Allan G. Creel, president of Creel Printing.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday lifted a nationwide injunction that has prevented the Trump administration from enforcing a rule to regulate a pill commonly used in medication abortions, allowing the rule to be enforced.
Since 2000, the Food and Drug Administration has said Mifeprex, a drug used during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy, must be given to patients by health care professionals in clinics, hospitals or doctors' offices. A patient must sign a form acknowledging that she has been counseled about the drug's possible risks. The patient can take the pill any time after she received it and does not have to swallow it in the presence of the health care professional.
A group of doctors, led by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, sued to relax the restrictions during the Covid-19 pandemic. Medical offices and clinics have either closed or restricted appointments, they said, and requiring pregnant women to make in-person visits exposes them to a heightened risk of infection.
Download the NBC News app for breaking news and politics
U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang of Maryland agreed, ruling in July that keeping the FDA rule during the pandemic would "place a substantial obstacle in the path of women seeking a medication abortion and that may delay or preclude a medication abortion and thus may necessitate a more invasive procedure." Instead, he said, the pills could be sent by mail.
His order stopped enforcement of the FDA rule nationwide, but the Supreme Court's stay allows the rule to be enforced.
Chief Justice John Roberts said it was not a case about whether the rule imposed an undue burden on a woman's right to seek an abortion. Instead, he said, it was about a lower court's authority to block rules during the pandemic. "The courts owe significant deference to the politically accountable branches" with the background to assess public health, he said.
Writing for herself and Justice Elena Kagan, Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the majority of women seeking abortion care during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy rely on the medication at issue.
"The FDA's policy imposes an unnecessary, unjustifiable, irrational, and undue burden on a women seeking abortion during the current pandemic," Sotomayor wrote.
Justice Stephen Breyer also said he would have left the hold on enforcing the rule in place.

The Houston Health Department encourages everyone ages six months and older to protect themselves, their family and community by getting a flu shot now.
Flu outbreaks can occur as early as October and last as late as May.
“The protection offered by flu shots is more important than ever, not just for Houstonians but also for our local healthcare systems,” said Dr. David Persse, chief medical officer for the City of Houston. “COVID-19 has stressed area hospitals for weeks. When people receive their flu shots, they will protect themselves and at the same time reduce the demand that our already burden hospitals are likely to face from the upcoming rise in patients with flu-related complications during the flu season.”
The health department on Monday began offering flu shots at its health centers to uninsured and underinsured people on a sliding scale that ranges from free to $15.
To find the nearest health center and set a flu shot appointment, people can call 832-393-5427. Health center locations and hours of operation are also available at HoustonHealth.org or through the City of Houston’s 311 Help and Info line.
People can visit their doctor, neighborhood pharmacy or local health department to get a flu shot. Many grocery stores also offer the vaccine.
People can receive flu and COVID-19 vaccines at the same time—in different arms—during a visit to their medical provider.
This season all flu vaccines are quadrivalent, meaning they protect against four different flu viruses. Quadrivalent vaccines have a safety profile comparable to seasonal flu vaccines made to protect against three viruses, with similar—mostly mild—side effects.
In addition to vaccination, people can help stop the spread of the flu and other illness by:
- Washing hands frequently
- Covering coughs and sneezes
- Staying home if sick and at least 24 hours after their fever is gone, except to get medical care.
People at high risk for flu are young children, pregnant women, people with chronic health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, and people age 65 and older. They also are at greater risk of severe complications if they get the flu.
The flu – caused by different related viruses – is a contagious disease that results in symptoms such as fever, headache, fatigue, cough, nasal congestion, sore throat and body aches. People with a combination of these symptoms need to see a medical provider promptly.
Most people recover in one to two weeks, but some develop complications such as pneumonia, bronchitis and sinus and ear infections. Flu also can make chronic medical conditions worse.
Doctors can prescribe antiviral medications that help make the illness shorter and milder. Antiviral medications work best if started within 48 hours of the onset of symptoms.
Vaccination and Testing Sites
The Houston Health Department is providing more than two dozen COVID-19 vaccination sites this week. You can find details in our latest news release and the full schedule is on the vaccination page of HoustonEmergency.org/covid19. Our testing site page is also updated.
Gift Card Incentive Program
There is not an expiration date for the Houston Health Department incentive program, which provides up to $150 in gift cards for COVID-19 vaccination. The program will continue until we administer all 20,000 first dose cards. As of Monday morning, we administered approximately 13,450 of the first dose cards. Visit this webpage for details, including frequently asked questions and flyers.
Additional Doses & Booster Doses
An additional dose intended to improve immunocompromised people’s response to their initial vaccine series is not the same as a booster dose, given when the immune response to a primary vaccine series is likely to have waned over time.
- Additional Doses (Moderna and Pfizer): Moderately and severely immunocompromised people who qualify for an additional dose of Moderna or Pfizer vaccine can receive it anywhere vaccines are offered.
- Booster Shots (Pfizer): Booster doses are available for people in certain groups who received two doses of the Pfizer vaccine at least six months ago.
- Who should get a booster:
- Residents of long-term care facilities who are age 18 and older
- People age 65 and older
- People ages 50-64 years old with underlying medical conditions
- Who may get a booster:
- People ages 18-49 with underlying medical conditions
- People ages 18-64 whose work or living situation increases their risk of exposure or transmission
- First responders (healthcare workers, firefighters, police, congregate care staff)
- Education staff (teachers, support staff, daycare workers)
- Food and agriculture workers
- Manufacturing workers
- Corrections workers
- U.S. Postal Service workers
- Public transit workers
- Grocery store workers
- Who should get a booster:

As I progress toward publication of my first book, I’m learning all sorts of new things that are part of the process. Today’s lesson:
I am NOT a graphic designer.
In order to publish on Kindle Direct Publishing for sale on Amazon, you have to have some kind of cover for your book. Realizing this, I started researching ways to get a cover designed quickly and cheaply.
I watched a video tutorial on Ernie Dempsey’s site about how he designs his own book covers using a free utility called Gimp. It lets you edit and manipulate photos, add text, and insert all kinds of cool visual effects.
I thought that sounded great – especially since I’m trying to keep costs down, and the production schedule… well, on schedule. This would allow me to come up with my own design based on my own photography, and I could do it without a PhD or a bottomless expense account.
So, I downloaded Gimp and started playing around with it.
It seemed pretty cool – I even managed to create a basic design using an old picture of my son, looking angry at the camera, and even added the title and byline text to it.
Sadly, it just wasn’t doing it for me.
This is supposed to be a humorous book, and the picture in question showed my son in anything but good humor. Not wanting to portray an otherwise sweet kid in such a poor light, I thought that doing some sort of cartoon caricature of a screaming kid would fit the bill. Luckily, Gimp allows you to draw your own, so…
Here’s my attempt at drawing my own cover, using Gimp to draw on my track pad:
Looks more like a drawing OF a gimp, done on a track pad; or maybe a drawing BY a gimp, drawn on a launch pad – while a departing rocket lit his hair on fire.
Go ahead and say it – I already know.
That thing is just plain awful.
This is just proof that sometimes you’re better off leaving certain things to the professionals – or even to a really talented amateur.
So as of today, I’m still without a cover for my upcoming book.
On the positive side, however, I did learn where NOT to look for one. My artistic rendering of a zombie-stick-person in hysterics is hardly the cover I’m looking for – but since that’s obviously the worst drawing on the internet ever, I now have my starting point, and nowhere to go but up.
So, the search for a good cover begins…
While I stick to writing.
A friend who helps others publish swears by fiverr.com for cover art. Quick turnaround, and cheap enough to not be catastrophic if it doesn’t work out.
Good advice, Andrea – I got the same advice from some other people smarter than me – judging by my drawing, it’s advice I should probably take!
Great post, Mac. And that drawing cracked me up. I’m no good with drawing on those graphics programs either.
Couple of great resources to use with GIMP: I use Bigstockphoto.com to buy images that can be put on book covers. It’s reasonably priced to get the standard license with most images, which allows you to sell up to 499,999 books before having to pay for the more expensive, high end licensing (as I understand the fine print). You could also use a service like 99Designs, which has produced a few terrific covers for me, but they cost around $300. The nice thing with them is that you get dozens of designs submitted from different artists. Lastly, take a look at Elance.com. You could probably get a great design for around $50-100 dollars.
I enjoy creating my own covers but I’m going to try out Elance for my upcoming release of Move the Mountain.
When you use Bigstockphoto for images, just import them into GIMP and watch a few YouTube videos on how to get them Kindle read.
My wife was telling me to quit screwing around and just go to one of the stock photo sites as well. I saw that you used 99designs for The Grecian Manifesto, but the price chased me away – for now, anyway. You did get a really great cover through that process, so maybe that’ll be an option for later books. I hadn’t even considered Elance – I’ll check that out as well.
Thanks for the tips – your webinar video on your resources page was a big help, too. Looking forward to the end of this month, when I’ll have some more free time to read your book!
Mike, I think the drawing looks amazingly like you during the Jet Screamer years!
Ha! I was waiting for one of you guys to make that observation! Good thing Gimps are like wine – they get better (and less stick-person like) with age!
I can totally relate to the DIY mentality, I have dabbled in Adobe Illustrator in the past and do a good job of copying someone else’s work. However, I am not as good at original art. Luckily, I found fiverr and it has been a life saver. I think you should give them a try.
Dabbling is an affliction of mine – I tend to waste a lot of time trying to figure out something new when I would be better served to let an expert handle it. Need to work on swallowing my pride more in order to boost my productivity! I’m working on finding an cover artist on Fiverr, thanks for the tip!

If you’ve heard anything about gold recently you’ve probably heard investors or financial experts refer to it is as a “Bubble”. All this means is that it’s an overvalued asset whose price of ultimately bound burst.
Yes, gold does seem to be very expensive. And with it’s most recent price at around $1,800 an ounce gold has been up more than 40% over the past year. More and more people are investing in gold hoping that over the next few years it will continue to go up in value so they can make a quick sale. Or they will just wait patiently for the next time this bubble comes around and make their money than. According to Investors the only reason gold is up is because of fear that paper currencies will not retain their value.
But this does not mean that it is being over examined. Unlike other investment vehicles like stocks, which provide dividends and earnings growth, and bonds which provide interest income, gold really has no cash value.
In all honesty it seems like everyones just guessing what gold is worth. Whether you think gold is just a bubble or you feel it’s heading to double or triple over the next few years you might be right.
When you can’t use benchmarks like price/earning ratios or bold yields, trying to figure out what the true worth of gold is nearly impossible.
Although, there is one way to rationally invest in gold and that’s buying stocks of gold-mining companies. They do however seem to be cheap based on stock-market value.
Even though gold is at record highs, shares of gold miners are trading at around 18 times earnings, or 2.4 times asset values. this is one of the lowest record to the metal itself. Just looking at gold mining companies like Barrick Gold and Newmont Mining who are trading at 14 times their earnings as well is a perfect example.
Manager of Tocqueville Gold Fund, John Hathaway, says, “Mining companies have rarely if ever been more profitable, and generate high returns so long as gold stays above $1,500 or $1,600.”
But gold stocks are still a high risk player just like the metal itself. It can definitely burn you out if you’re trying to get rich quick. Gold has probably been the cliche to a boom-bust industry. Especially when it comes to all of those who invest during the fat years and pull out during the slow years.

So I played a game vs Dave's Lamenters (Blood Angels) army. It was definitely not my day. We played 2k capture and control w/ DoW setup.
All in all it was an awesome game vs. a good opponent. The biggest hindrance on the table was my dice. I literally rolled 4 ones to wipe out my termy squad. Two of the squads melta-guns did not hit even once this game. These things happen; now I have to do better in the upcoming rematch.

She made several flying geese blocks and then put the big flower border on it. Then she appliques ( brodery purse) big cut out flowers on the top to give it life . It turned out fabulous!
I quilted all over flowers and vines.
Here’s the back:
Thanks Sharon! You always do great work!

19 SepLive music at Butterfly Home!
We have noticed that music seems to reach our kids in an incredibly special way. Mark, who is so desperately ill, still responds to his favourite music. He likes it so much that he has his own CD player right beside his bed. One of our earliest children, Brittany, found it hard to engage with toys or to make eye contact. But if you approached her with a musical toy, those barriers opened right up. Music was her bridge, her way of making connection.
For the children who can gather in the playroom, “music time” is always a fun highlight, and they respond with enthusiasm. We might add that the definition of “music” sometimes gets a little stretched. When you have such a variety of ages and abilities all trying to contribute … well, let’s just call it a joyful noise.
Recently our music sessions have reached a whole new level of sophistication. Yes – we are pretty classy at Butterfly Home these days. We now have live music!!! It’s all thanks to some Australian friends, who donated an electronic keyboard for the children’s enjoyment, and Vicki, a volunteer from Belgium with musical talent. Vicki has studied piano for most of her life. She started learning when she was just five, and graduated with honours from her local music academy at eighteen. So as you can imagine – she makes beautiful music. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to reach this standard of performance.
And now, we are the blessed recipients of her talents. Vicki has agreed to come once a week to introduce our children to the joys of live music. As you can see from the pictures, our first session was a big hit. The kids enjoyed their own private concert.
The smile on Annie’s face speaks for all the kids – they loved it!
Some were not content just to listen, but wanted to have a go themselves .Love the expression on Gemma’s face in the background. She’s enjoying all this craziness.
Michael experimented with both feet and with fingers.
And he couldn’t resist playing with all the buttons as well.
Ron never wants to miss out on anything the big boys are doing.
Joshua is like a sponge, taking it all in.
Yes – he’s definitely having fun!
Thanks so much to our friends who donated the organ, and to Vicki for sharing her talents. Giving our children a life full of opportunities and experiences is really important, and we love it when people come and share their unique gifts with us. Who knows, maybe one of our little Butterfly kids will be inspired to learn piano themselves one day ….


I’m writing this letter to ask why nothing is being done by Derry City Council, NIE, the PSNI, the DoE and Social Security to stop the illegal trading going on in our city.
These ‘mobiles’ are selling cigarettes and DVD’s to anyone who goes into them, including, in some cases, under-age children. The mobiles do not pay rates and I suspect that you could find a case or two of electricity being connected illegally. Then there’s the question of ‘staff’ members on benefits who are working illegally.
Surely legal traders should be allowed to earn an honest living. Here we are in the City of Culture 2013 and it’s amazing how many of these mobiles are being allowed to trade when they give nothing towards the city. They are answerable to no-one, and it appears no-one is doing anything about it. What exactly does that say about Derry? Other towns and cities in Ireland have these problems but not on this scale.
Shops that are trading legally are closing daily. We have boarded-up premises and streets that look neglected. It’s a poor reflection on our City Council that legal traders are being put out of business because they can’t compete with the cheap sale of illegal cigarettes and God knows what else.
Derry is on show for ‘City of Culture, but if nothing’s done there’ll be a mobile on every street corner. We are all hoping for a lot of tourists visiting this year, but is that the look those in authority in this city really want to see.
It begs the question - who is really looking after our city? Something needs to change!

Chichen itza, Cancún, the Temple of Warriors, cenotes, Isla de las mujeres are the most interesting places that you must visit while being in Mexico. Other amazing areas are around you all the time.
It was November 2014. 12 hours of flying in the clouds onboard a Boeing 787 in the premium class. There were very comfortable seats with space for legs, access to movies, games and drinks, whatever you wanted. Our journey started very well. You don’t even notice the flight is so long.
That positive impression continued for the whole of our stay in Mexico. The hotel was fantastic. There was a small forest inside the hotel, full of different plants and flowers, animals like monkeys, peacocks, lizards, chameleons and many small and exotic birds. Every morning we were woken up by singing birds. You could have plenty of food, smoothies and natural juices, served in the open bar with no limits. The staff was very polite, with a pro-client approach, smiling all the time and willing to help you in any case, and made you feel the best you expected. My eight-year-old son was totally in love with that place and the atmosphere around him. You may experience deeper contact with nature and taste different food at the place because there are 6 restaurants preparing meals and food next to you. You can see everything as it happens.
Only one thing may scare you a little bit. I felt it when I entered the sea. Sharks could appear any moment
We visited the key places in Mexico, like e.g. Chichen itza, Cancún, the Temple of Warriors, cenotes, Isla de las mujeres and we saw the real life of the inhabitants. For example, the Day of the Dead in Mexico is outstanding in comparison to Poland. While we are sad and cry, Mexicans smile and celebrate this day by having a party in the cemetery full of food and sweets on the graves. Additionally, every six years relatives dig the bones of their dead out of the tombstones and put them into carton boxes which you can open whenever you want. This way they make place for other dead relatives in the graves.
Of course, you have to see how tequila is produced and buy several bottles because it is Mexico’s national alcoholic drink.
Every moment we felt out of reality, like in a dream. Everywhere you could find colourful decorations, amazing architecture, songs and music, and smiling people, which was the most important for me. We had an occasion to wear sombreros that brought us closer to their culture and customs.
I really recommend visiting Mexico. So far, it’s the best journey I’ve been on.

I’m taking part in Blogtoberfest 2012 across my various different blogs – at least one post a day for the month of October to get me back into blogging regularly again. I’m keeping a (growing) list of those posts for anyone interested!
A bit like yesterday’s post, this is a half-finished make at the moment. This would have been finished if I could find my ball of black crochet cotton but since I can’t, it’s currently string-less string art/thread art. eBay is providing a new (to me) ball of black crochet cotton so I’ll post finished pics (and better pics in general) when that arrives tomorrow/Thursday but, you know, Blogtoberfest2012 demands daily posts…!
I’ve been wanting to try making some string art for a while but have always been put off by the idea of having to hammer in lots of little nails. Then I found Dina’s string art tutorial which uses corkboard so no hammer required and it’s pretty forgiving (I moved a few pins but with the naturally open cork texture, it’s hard to see the wrong holes). I was even lazier than Dina though and just used a cork noticeboard – £2 from Wilkinsons. They used to have ones in wooden frames but I prefer this apparently frameless type (there is a hidden frame structure, which makes it pretty strong and ready to hang).
I’ve used 10mm (3/8″) cut tacks instead of pins – I tried panel pins but the test string slipped off them more easily and I like the mock-industrial dark metal look anyway. As I said, the string will be black too and when I’m stringing it, I’ll even up the heights/positions of all the tacks so it looks a bit neater in general (seemed little point in doing it now).
It’s our house number and will hang in the (very visible from the road) porch. The house exterior is currently dirty cream & green (bleugh!) but we’ve been meaning to re-do it since we moved in to (off-)white and black, and all the other stuff I’ve got in the porch is monochrome in anticipation of that. Hopefully this will both look good finished and coordinate well with the other stuff in there. If it doesn’t, well, at least it was quick, easy & fun — and I can take it all apart again to reuse in some other way.

Marriott Hotel and Timeshare CEO Speaks Out for Energy Cost Cuts
Friday, August 1, 2008
J.W. “Bill” Marriott, Jr. chairman and chief executive officer of Marriott hotels and Marriott timeshare, has joined other leaders in the travel, hotel, and timeshare resort industries in asking Congress and the Administration to build a bipartisan alliance and address the growing US energy crisis.
In an open letter to the President, Senators, and Representatives, tourism industry spokespeople called on lawmakers to stay in Washington DC throughout the summer in order to develop a comprehensive national energy policy.
MarketWatch quoted Bill Marriott as saying that the family budgets of Americans are being squeezed by higher gas prices at the pump and more expensive airline seats. Marriott pointed out that flights are being cut and that nine small or mid-sized air carriers have ceased operations in the past year alone creating a “huge ripple effect affecting the entire travel industry,” including hotels, car rentals companies, cruise lines, amusement parks, national parks, taxis, restaurants, travel agents, shops, and other types of retailers or travel related services.
As Bill Marriott, the patriarchal head of Marriott hotels and Marriott timeshares says of the lawmakers, “They shouldn’t be going home in August while travelers in America are finding it harder and harder to go anywhere.”
…Good point, why should your elected officials be on holiday during August when you can’t afford to be?

The committee was scheduled to have its first meeting last Thursday but was unable to do so following the failure to reach Mr Agyapong who has been accused by his colleague Alhassan Suhuyini over threats on a multimedia journalist.
“Unfortunately it seems to me like the man is a coward he has been away for sometime now. The Committee they haven’t been able to find him to serve him,” Suhuyini told Berla Mundi on the New Day show on TV3 Thursday August 5.
The Speaker Alban Bagbin referred Mr Agyapong to the Privileges Committee of Parliament for his utterances against a journalist with the Multimedia Group, Erastus Asare Donkor.
Mr Agyapong on Friday, July 9, is reported to have allegedly threatened to attack Mr Asare Donkor, “for the journalistic work that the latter undertook during the recent shootings and killing incident at Ejura” on his television station.
The Multimedia Group filed a formal complaint against Mr Agyapong.
On Wednesday July 14, Alhassan Suhuyini raised the issue on the floor of the house and asked the Speaker to refer the matter to the Privileges Committee.
He said “Mr Speaker, I think that as a former journalist I feel obliged to draw the House’s attention to this conduct of an Honorable colleague of this house which in my view, brings this house into disrepute.
“Mr Speaker, I urge you to exercise your powers under 27 and refer this conduct of the Honorable which is becoming unacceptable, to the Privileges Committee to ascertain the veracity of the comments that were made and recommend sanctions if possible that will act as deterrent to other members who may be tempted to act like him.”
In response to his request, the Speaker accordingly referred Mr Agyapong to the committee.
“As it is now, I am compelled to refer it to the Privileges Committee. I want to emphasize that it is the House that will take the decision, it is not the speaker, it is not any other person apart from the House.
“That will be your collective wisdom that come to the conclusion whether what is alleged is just a mere allegation or is supported by facts and whether those facts constitute contempt of the House and abuse of a privilege of members,
“It is important for me to emphasize here that the privilege and immunity of free speech applies in full force in plenary session and committee sessions, not when members are outside debating issues or on radio and TV. You don’t have that right, that privilege, that immunity to just say anything because you are a member of parliament.
“We are not above the law. It is for good reasons because you represent a large number of people, you should be given the full immunity to be able to say what the people say they want you to say. That is why you say it here and you are covered.
“That immunity doesn’t extend to you in anywhere else. So pleased the committee should go into the matter, submit the report.”

Revenge of the Mad Scientist is set in an alternative, steampunk world where everything mechanical is powered by steam. There are steam-driven motor-cars, airships, and complicated gadgets. The milieu of the story is approximately Victorian, and the author, Lara Nance, is adept at blending the quirky, eclectic aspects of the steampunk genre with the conventional courtesies and gas-lit atmosphere of a bygone era. All of this is entertaining, as is the fast, plot-driven pace of the novel.
Lady Arabella Trunkett is attending a ball at her father’s mansion when agents from a hostile country kidnap her father, a political dignitary. Unable to persuade the authorities to follow-up on important clues, she sets off, accompanied only by her boy-genius ward and intractable butler, to rescue her father.
Rollicking adventure ensues. Lady Arabella is thwarted by assassination attempts, airship crashes, another kidnapping, an enraged nomadic tribe, and pirates. The intrepid heroine retains her equanimity through all these trials, however, except when she finds she must rely on a former fiancÃ© who left her waiting at the altar. The romantic tension in the novel revolves around whether Lady Arabella and her former suitor will be able to resolve their differences and rekindle their love.
While the plot is filled with entertaining action, those who desire more ballast for their fiction may find that it lacks integral character development. Nance gives her characters no more weight than that which is absolutely necessary to push the plot along. We know what motivates them in a general sense, but not the small turns of thought that tell us who they are. The discerning reader will wish the author had slowed her pace just enough to give the characters depths worth fathoming. Fans searching for straightforward steampunk tales of derring-do, however, need look no further than this first installment to Nance’s Airship Adventure Chronicles.

COLLEGE STATION - Courtney Walker had 19 points and eight rebounds and No. 3 seed Texas A&M used a big run to pull away from tournament newcomer and 14-seed North Dakota and cruise to the 70-55 win on Sunday night in the first round of the NCAA women's tournament.
The Aggies, who won the national title in 2011, were making their ninth straight appearance in the tournament and North Dakota was one of five women's teams in the tournament for the first time.
North Dakota didn't look like a tournament rookie early. The game was tied late in the first half before Texas A&M (25-8) went on a 14-0 run which spanned the first and second halves to go on top 40-26

I am who I am, and I won’t apologize for it.
I know that I am BLESSED BEYOND MEASURE, but if I can be honest for a minute sometimes I feel empty, sad and alone. Right now I care about a person that I have to mentally let go. For the life of me I can not seem to get my mind to forget him but am I supposed to forget him or realize his purpose in my life. Often times we are told that some people are in your life for a season and a reason. What we are not told is how to get your heart to accept when that person season and reason are fulfilled. I am struggling because he was not a bad person at all. Often times he made me laugh, smile, think, and dream. For a second I allowed myself to dream of a future with him but just like that he’s gone. What hurts is that he’s so close yet so far away. I know the best thing is to let go, but I just need help in that department. I tell myself it would be much easier to move on if he was a complete jerk but instead he was a classic gentleman.
Here’s what I know:
-My Pain Has Purpose
-God’s Word is True
-All things will work for my good
-God has someone just for me
– NO ONE CAN TAKE MY BLESSINGS
But when I am honest with myself sometimes those truths are hard to believe . A wise man once told me to separate fact from feelings. The fact is him and I are not together, but I feel that we should be.
He’s a great person, but I have to get to a space where I can accept that as great of a person I think he is God has someone even better just for me.
Lesson to Learned: Never apologize for having a heart. During times of weakness we often blame ourselves or think we’re foolish for feeling. I truly am happy that I am capable of loving.
If you are struggling and at war with your heart find someone you can trust and tell them you need help. It is not easy, but in order to heal you have to let go and move forward. A important thing to remember is that God is Love and your pain has purpose. During your dark hours trust God and he’ll see you through. I know that this too shall pass, and one day it will all make sense to me why it didn’t work with Mr. Classic Gentlemen.
Until next time…… God is Love……… Love, Peace, and Hair Grease….

It’s that time in the semester, for many of us, where we begin to lose our minds. Every professor’s opinion that their class should be your top priority even if it is a silly class that really doesn’t pertain to your degree at all, besides the fact that it fills a requirement to graduate. It is at times like these that we need to take even greater care of ourselves. So, here are a couple of things you can do to keep yourself sane during these crazy, stressful times.
Eat healthy food. I have many a friend who will tell you that my solution to everything is eat more dark green vegetables. You will feel better, you will work better, honestly they are the fix all of food groups. I strongly believe in the power of leafy, dark green vegetables (kale, lettuce, spinach, broccoli, green beans, truly everything dark green).
Buy a candle. Or four. I love candles. They help you to create a relaxing environment that’s just for you. Find one that has a smell that reminds you of your home or a happy memory. That way when you sit down for some alone time (foreshadowing! This is another point!) you’ve created a positive calming environment to exist in.
Spend some time alone. I mean real alone time. Turn off your phone, don’t check your email, just devote at least one hour to your mental health and well being. Read a book, listen to some music, make yourself some tea or coffee and just look out the window. Watch people, think about your week. Think about the good things, not the things that might stress you out.
Get more sleep than you normally do. Many people resort to less sleep when they’re stressed out because they are worried about getting everything done and then they are sick and sleep deprived. Manage your time in order to get more sleep than you need, so you are awake and alert when you need to get things done.
Treat yourself to something fun. This could be a massage or an ice cream or a cute new shirt or hat. Buy yourself something small that makes you feel good about yourself. This is a cute way to say you’re proud of yourself for all of the work you’ve accomplished.
You can do this! I believe in you, you need to believe in you too. We will all make it through this semester together. Summer is so close I can taste it.

How do i know if my dream is from god
How To Know If Your Dreams Are Gods Dreams: Finding His Will in Your Deepest Desires by Bo SánchezCUNNINGLY DECEPTIVE BOOK. Dont get me wrong. Ive always been a fan of Bo Sanchez and Ive always loved his books since high school. Ive followed all of them, and this is one of those. Ive enjoyed reading and re-reading it. I lived it and breathed it. However, as I was growing more deeply in the Lord, I discovered that IT STILL LACKS SOMETHING! As I get to know more of our saints, their writings and their doctrine, things that God taught them personally on discerning Gods will, Ive learned that the RIGHT WAY on discerning Gods will for your life IS NOT TOTALLY BEING PAINTED IN THIS BOOK. Its lacking that one crucial element that if not being expounded, I saw the dangers that souls will have to go through in living in this state of delusion--which I, myself lived before in believing this ideology. I know many would react to this, if anyone gets to read this. But pls., dont get me wrong. I have nothing against Bro. Bo. I love Him, so much! So, please lets try to be objective here and open up your mind. Having spent so many years, myself in agonizing over Gods will for my life and read so many books on discerning Gods will, Ive noticed its the same tone with other christian denominations with what popular christianity teach nowadays on how to discern Gods will for your life. Although, Ive found a handful of them now slowly discovering the truth. Guys, If you want to know Gods will for your life, ITS SAFE RATHER TO READ THE WRITINGS OF THE SAINTS. I tell you, there is so much truth and hidden wisdom in there waiting to be unearthed--which God have long prepared for all of us. And I can really attest to you that by far, this book still remains in the plane of the emotions and the superficial. That scalpel after scalpel of discernment he was referring to in the book?--still hasnt reached to the bottom of it-OUR TRUE DEEPEST DESIRES WHICH ARE REALLY IN LINE WITH GODS WILL FOR OUR LIVES... though the book may say, it has reached it. But truth is, it takes a keen eye to see it. Why? Well, this really takes a lot of discussion. But Id like to point out some. First, a lot of factors are still to be considered and a lot of issues to be looked at. A persons history for example, or his deepest wounds and unfulfilled needs may come into play, etc.--altogether coloring up Gods perfect will for him and silencing Gods voice because he/she wants this one thing. You see? it blurs the whole master plan & youll be missing so much of the impossible and the full life God has in store for you and me, a fuller life than the full life you know now, or in the here and now... because youve settled for less--YOUR OWN DESIRES, not HIS! Because no matter how seemingly good your intention is, if its not Gods perfect will for your life, its not! And it will never be! How can you trust your own deepest desires and make it as your own compass for life when God keeps on teaching His saints to never trust themselves? Not even for a single moment! You see, PERFECT SELF-DISTRUST is what He has taught to all of His saints! For didnt His word says, That the human heart is deceptive and exceeding wicked above all else... who can know it?-- Jeremiah 17:9. So, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING.--Proverbs 4:18 For there is a way that seems right to a man but in the end, leads to death.--Prov. 14:12 That if one fails to see this with a keen eye, he is bound to a state of delusion and not really discovering Gods true calling for his life while believing all along he is! Do we really want to live in a lie? Well, I dont! Second, among saved Christians and those who are already growing in the faith, you already know that the good is always the greatest enemy of the best. So, when you fail to really listen to His PERFECT will for your life which is the best, or if youre the type who upon knowing Gods will in whatever area of your life, you try to accomplish it in your own way, and not His way... youre still the loser. God sees beyond what you cant see my friend. :) He only asks your perfect confidence in Him. :) If you do, trust me... youll never regret it. :), or ask Gods greatest saints for themselves. Read their writings... they have much to say. :) So, let me just end it here... though there are still a lot of nitty gritty details to be discussed at, and the lies and deceptions in this tricky task of discerning Gods will for your life.
I just really hope Bro. Bo would correct this because some of the higher authorities and a few Marian priests, one whom I personally know, an Exorcist himself, and who happen to be my own personal Spiritual Director WHO HAVE REALLY TRIED TO PRESERVE THE DOCTRINE OF OUR FAITH, had already called up his attention on this... telling him TO NOT VEER AWAY FROM THE DOCTRINE OF OUR FAITH. And not only this book but some of his other books as well. But he keeps on reasoning out. His attention was already called several years ago, behind closed doors... but until now, it comes into naught. I just really hope he would correct it, this time. And publicly renounce it so that he can help more people. I love you Bro. Bo... I just hope you wont allow yourself to be corrupted with what popular christianity teach, nowadays.... so that you can shine even more for the Lord and PRESERVE THE PURITY OF OUR FAITH. As an avid fan myself, Ive learned this one thing, though... that no matter how wonderful is the wisdom of one person, it will still be lacking and even still... it pales in comparison to the fullness of Gods truth! I have nothing against you, Bro. Bo. I love your spirit and charisma, but I hope you will also have the courage of a profoundly humble servant to admit and correct your undoing when youre really at fault. If you will be able to do so, you will shine even more for the Lord and give Him a much more greater glory! And I will be a greater fan once more. :) Again, everything is right in the book. Its just that its still lacking. That one crucial element thats so dangerous to souls! I wanted to give it a 3-star but then, after several years, because they still made this available to the public, even and in spite of the calling up of his attention, I gave it a 2-star.
11 ways to know if a dream is from God
I've been studying dreams and teaching people how to interpret them for nearly 20 years, and that is the question I am asked most often: "How do I know if a dream is from God? I'll do my best to answer that question in this post and the next. The full teaching on this topic would take an entire book, so we'll just be scratching the surface here.
How to Know If Your Dream Is From God
Marko Joensuu has worked for over sixteen years in the publishing and media ministries of Kensington Temple. He is an author, publisher and screenwriter. I had a dream 2 week's ago that I was walking with jesJe, and his disciples and Jesus held my hand said I back, and left then Peter told me come with them to the river and Galilee and then Peter baptized me there, and last night dream that I was preaching the word of God and baptizing people Heather Lake and lots of people got laid around and I got to rest up but what kind of court I , I told them why am I been prosecuted for spreading the word of God, and said if any one here has not comfy and just me but they all left. Fascinating dreams - if these are dreams from God, it seems that you might be called to some kind of ministry, a ministry that might not always be popular. Hello Marko I have a had dream where I was at the Gym working out, in great shape and I pick up a photo.. I recently came out of a bad 2yr relationship with my ex girlfriend and now I'm single, getting healthy, hitting the gym for the police academy, and getting back to church with the help of my family and God.
When Kenneth and Gloria started their journey of faith they had questions too—lots of them! So, we've compiled the most frequently asked questions by people like you—people who earnestly desire to find God's answers to the practical, real-life challenges of everyday living. We have a new question every day, so check back often! First John tells us to test the spirits whether they are from God. We are to prove all things and hold on to that which is good 1 Thessalonians This is true whether it is a dream or vision we received in the night, or something someone said that would affect the course of our lives. Test the prophecy, vision or dream to make sure it lines up with the Word.
I was also told Jesus bore our sins and that is why the Holy Spirit left Him. Have you had a dream and as a result wonder if the dream is from God?

So, in the previous blog I discussed the question: Does God still speak in dreams? The conclusion was that God certainly does as He remains the same yesterday, today and forever.
You wake up drowsy eyed, wander into the kitchen and sit down with a cup of coffee. Slowly the images return, flashing through your mind in fleeting sequence. Strangely coherent, they seem to shed light on your thoughts from the day before. We know that everybody dreams — usually for hours every night. Most of the dreams we have are natural dreams — they are the activity of our unconscious minds while we are asleep. This first one is perhaps the easiest.

Labor Day this year comes after a pandemic-induced rollercoaster of historically high unemployment followed by very low unemployment numbers. What has this meant for workers themselves? Maximillian Alvaraz of the Real News Network and the Working People podcast and Tsedal Neely, professor at Harvard Business School, join Lisa Desjardins to talk about this complicated moment for American workers.
This Labor Day comes after some of the most tumultuous years in the history of the American worker, a pandemic rollercoaster have historically high unemployment, and now quite low unemployment numbers. Tonight, we look at what that means for workers themselves.
We invited some of you over Twitter to tell us if you feel secure in your jobs. In the answers, we saw stress and exhaustion, people who say they are struggling like this woman who said she is seeking to retire soon after years under pressure, or this one who said she's carrying more burden than she expected to at this age. But others told us they're enjoying working from home and finding satisfying opportunities.
To talk about this complicated moment, I'm joined by Maximillian Alvarez of The Real News Network, and host of the Working People podcast and Tsedal Neeley, professor at the Harvard Business School.
Focusing on the workers themselves. Here are two powerful tweets that we received. A local school worker wrote COVID relief has ended the school is understaffed and overwhelmed. The stress is unbearable. But a librarian told us even though quote, we don't eat out much, don't travel, I'm more satisfied, I get to play and experiment.
We want to talk about both the good and the bad. But Maximillian Alvarez, let's start with you, and which kinds of workers are struggling the most right now?
Maximillian Alvarez, Editor-In-Chief, The Real News Network:
Well, you know, it's hard to say who's struggling the most. But I think what I really want to underscore for people is that people are struggling across different industries for many of the same problems. As you mentioned in that tweet, I really want to stress for people that chronic and deliberate understaffing is probably the most common complaint that I hear from workers in retail and service from education workers. We're starting a new school year we have been hemorrhaging teachers, because we've been underpaying, underresourcing them, vilifying them relentlessly in the media. And now we're running out of teachers.
So that is very much a crisis, but it is also happening in healthcare. Healthcare has been hemorrhaging staff after two and a half years of the pandemic and we have no real plan to sort of replace all these lost workers.
You're hearing now, Tsedal Neeley, about understaffing stress on workers across the board. Where do we say workers finding more satisfaction, more flexibility. Now that's something you study.
Tsedal Neeley, Professor, Harvard Business School:
You know, one of the biggest things that came out of the global pandemic is remote work, or remote work revolution, as we've seen is the grandest experiments where people have had the capability to work from home.
And more recently, a hybrid of work has been introduced more and more in companies where people have both in person and remote experiences, that has increased job satisfaction and extraordinary ways increased productivity, increase the ability for people to have work life integration in ways that we've never seen in this country since the 1950s.
It's interesting, we did get a tweet about that. This person wrote, I've seen hiring policies change people to work completely remotely, more flexibility. All of these things have made it possible to hire the best people for the physicians and better pay too.
You know, something else we noticed, I want both of you to pay attention to in these is sort of talking especially about unionization. Here are two more personal stories revolving around that first, tweet, in this that we had a heating and air conditioning tech write us that since they joined the Union six months ago, quote, pay is almost double. And they wrote off finally have a little more room to breathe. Here's the other, quote, I worked for a major railroad and we are about to strike. That person wrote, we work to the point of exhaustion.
Maximillian, union had been losing workers for some decades now. But this speaks to that exhaustion factor. What is this moment right now for labor unions?
It's a really pivotal moment because again, we have a tight labor market, the likes of which we may never see again in this century. The boomers are retiring out a lot of people died or got sick and debilitated from COVID. And also, as I aforementioned, you know, a lot of industries have been slashing their workforce.
So, you know, we've been hearing this no one wants to work narrative, but in fact, if you hear the workers side of it, you'll hear folks at Chipotle, at Starbucks, at, you know, a school in Minneapolis or on the class one freight railroads, you'll hear all of these folks screaming, we don't have enough people. We can't even hire and retain people because we're being treated so poorly.
A lot of the country probably doesn't realize that we are closer right now to a national rail shutdown on the freight railroads than we've been in my lifetime. And because workers have been running to the ground, and the profit maximizing cost cutting decisions from corporate CEOs has ruined the supply chain and turned what was once a good job into a miserable experience. It's a real crisis.
Tsedal, we've been talking about something that spans different kinds of work, different stresses and different kinds of satisfaction. But you've also noticed some gaps in gender, and generation that's happening right now with workers. Can you talk about that?
Absolutely, it's kind of a moment in time where there's fierce divide between employers and employees, particularly around the return to office. Those who are leaders of companies, oftentimes, people of a certain age, have a perception of what the best way of work is. And oftentimes, they prefer the butts and seats, command and control.
On the other hand, employees who are digital natives, who are much more savvy, who can go between the in person and the digital prefer that disproportionately and so this gap is massive. And I actually don't know how it's going to get resolved, unless there's some kind of compromise, particularly from the sides of leaders, because we've been through the biggest lesson of our lifetimes. And well-being is another thing that people are thinking about caring about a lot, a lot of well-being issues.
I want to ask both of you as we wrap this up, what do you think is most misunderstood about workers in America, any kind of workers and where we're at and Tsedal Neeley, let's start with you.
They want autonomy. They want control in their lives. They want to be able to contribute and produce for their organizations in a way that also works for them from a physical standpoint, from a mental standpoint, from a family standpoint.
So the kind of discontent that we're seeing with the push for return to Office is because there's this loss of control, loss of autonomy, loss of integration in their lives that they so want to maintain.
You know, I think that the COVID-19 pandemic supercharged workers understanding of their own worth, because for a brief moment, this system was forced to admit how much it needs us and all of us were able to finally recognize how much we and our fellow workers are essential. And I think that that has had a lot to do with the growing labor movement in this country from the unionization wave to the strikes we've been seeing, to record numbers of people quitting their jobs. But the backlash has been just as fears the bosses do not like this worker militancy, and they want to put all of us back into our place.
So I think that you are seeing a real struggle between working people and a system that admits that it values our labor as essential but not our lives and working people are pushing back against that and saying we are worth more and we're going to fight for it.
Maximillian Alvarez of The Real News Network, and the Working People podcast, and Tsedal Neeley, Harvard University's Business School. Thank you to you both.
