Mobilizing Africa’s unemployed and underemployed youth is the key to the continent’s economic growth and stability. AYM works to mobilize marginalized youth through education, training, and employment and creates entrepreneurial opportunities to help move communities away from poverty, disease, and hunger. AYM aims to establish personal empowerment and community resilience by energizing the continent’s youth population, its most critical resource in the reversal of social and economic stagnation.

Our mission is to educate and employ youth in agribusinessecotourism, technology, and the creative arts to energize the continent’s youth to promote food security, health, literacy, infrastructure, as well as social and political stability.

At the end of the day, our impact must be the number of young people with gainful employment through AYM’s program designs and implementation as well as the number of ongoing businesses established for or by the youth in the communities where we operate.

Bonthe District Youth Vegetable Team in Jong Chiefdom.

Entrepreneurship is at the core of AYM Program Design.  The organization will always seek financial support from well-wishers and donors.  But, its future as an economic institution for the social good, lies in a solid business plan that would generate continuous funding from multiple sources to keep its programs viable and sustainable.

To achieve this goal, the organization’s flagship priority is the AYM Social Enterprise and Business Incubator Center in Mattru Jong,  Sierra Leone.  The center serves as a model for educating youth about business concepts and creating employment in the community for possible replication in other areas in Africa.

The AYM Social Enterprise and Business Incubator Center generates its own funding through the micro businesses that we operate such as the 24-hour cell phone charging services, sale of cold soft drinks and water, motorcycle and vehicle battery charging and internet services.  It is the only venue in the entire Bonthe District with 24/7 electricity using solar, wind and diesel.  We are currently in the final stages of planning the implementation of satellite internet to replace cellular internet.   This will greatly enhance our technology program and enable further ITC training for our youth.

There are currently, 7 full-time employed youths at the Social Enterprise Center as follows: 1 Site Manager, 2 Loss Prevention Specialists, 3 Customer Service Specialists and 1 Community Liaison Officer complemented by 250 trained youth volunteers awaiting job placements.  Salaries for the employed youths are derived from the business activities at the Enterprise Center. The success of this project will be determined by AYM-SL employing and adding to its salaried roster 25 more youths by the end of December, 2014; 50 by July 2015 and, 40 by the end of December 2015 for a total payroll of 122 youths by the end of December 2015. Employment and vigorous cross training will be the hallmark of AYM’s youth recruitment and retention processes in the job programs.

AYM Sierra Leone Social Enterprise Center and Business Incubator.

According to the United Nations, here are the hard facts on Sierra Leone:

  • 60 percent of young women and men between the ages of 14 to 35 are unemployed, which is among the highest in West Africa.
  • Sierra Leone’s youth are living on less than US $2 per day.
  • 80 percent of the country’s youth population is unable to earn enough to lift themselves and their families above the US$2 per day poverty level.
  • Less than 50 percent of young workers in Sierra Leone receive payment for their labor, compared with two-thirds of adults. In addition, most private companies pay between US$30 to 37 per month as a basic salary, reaching US$58 to 70 at the top supervisory levels.
  • Women are particularly vulnerable when it comes to education and job opportunities.
  • 9.5 percent of adult women have reached a secondary or higher level of education, compared with 20.4 percent of their male counterparts. Only five percent of them participate in wage employment.
  • Half of urbanized youth lack professional skills
  • Self-employment is the major means of livelihood for the youth population

Twenty First Century African Youth Movement (AYM) partners with a diverse network of global volunteers to build effective youth employment programs to address Africa’s unemployed youth. The volunteers bring a wide range of both professional and social experiences to the organization making AYM multi-cultural. We are always on the lookout to join forces with like-minded organizations and individuals to maximize our positive momentum.  Join us.

Designer Energy and Marine Technology

Tomasz Idczak

My favourite part of the job:

The most enjoyable part of my job is visiting the ship. It’s always impressive to see warships from inside, meet the people working there and talk to them about improving their workplace. And it’s satisfying to see my previous work in place.

Most challenging thing I’ve ever done:

My biggest challenge so far was changing a set of complex project drawings created by various designers. It took me couple weeks to go through it all, but the whole project was approved and released to the client.

My typical day

As a designer, I find solutions for technical issues and make improvements possible. That includes preparing project documentation as the final output, to pass on to the engineers.

My day involves using CAD software to create 3D models and 2D drawings.

At our team meetings we review the tasks we’ve got lined up and the best ways to go about them. I consult with engineers on calculations, shipbuilding and warship designs. I need to visit the ships to gather information, by taking photos, talking to crews involved, taking measurements and making sketches.

I also take part in safety training. The shipyard working environment needs constant training and safety reminders to prevent injury. Babcock makes serious efforts to make it a safe place to work.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to have a baby?

The total cost to have a baby will depend on many factors including delivery method (vaginal or C-section), delivery complications, health insurance coverage, and prenatal or postpartum care. Based on claim data from FAIR Health, the average cost with insurance for vaginal delivery is around $7,700 ($13,702 without insurance) and C-section delivery is roughly $11,230 ($18,668 without insurance).

What is the average monthly cost for a baby?

The average monthly cost for a baby will fall between $1,000 and $2,000 per month. This will vary by family depending on a number of factors including the number of diapers the baby goes through, the volume of formula they consume, childcare expenses, increased health insurance cost, college savings (529) investment, baby gear purchases, and other recurring costs.

How much does it cost to have a baby in the first year?

It will cost about $12,000 to have a baby in the first year alone. This doesn’t include baby delivery costs ($7,700 to $11,230 with insurance), childcare expenses ($300 to $1,400 per month), or health insurance coverage for your baby ($100 to $450 per month).

What should I do to prepare financially for having a baby?

1. Create a new budget that accounts for all one-time and ongoing baby costs.
2. Create a savings plan (and possibly separate account) to cover the costs for having a baby.
3. Check with your insurance to determine steps and deadlines to add them to your health plan after birth.

Quick Tips For Renting A Condo in Bangkok

Posted by niveth-admin on January 9, 2020
| Uncategorized
| 0

As in any real estate market, there are certain pointers that will help you get a better deal when renting a condo in Bangkok. Luckily, the Bangkok real estate market is quite varied, and it’s quite easy to get exactly what you are looking for with a little guidance. Below are some handy tips on how to get what you want in terms of price and your specific needs when renting a condo in Bangkok.

1. Choose Your Location Carefully

Depending on your reason for staying in Bangkok, the appropriate location to rent a condo will vary considerably. Do you want to be as close to town as possible, in the suburbs, or near major transportation networks? You can also consider factors such as restaurants, or any amenities that factor strongly into your choice on place of residence, for instance, easy access to good hospitals, shopping centers, entertainment centers, and so forth.

2. Be Prepared to Pay a Two-month Deposit

Paying a deposit is an industry standard in the Bangkok for people renting condos and other forms of residential property. In essence, there is no way of going around this. That said, you have to be extra cautious of renters who are willing to take a month’s deposit, there is usually something fishy that you do not know about the condo in question. Basically, if you wish to get yourself a good condo, be prepared to put down a two-month deposit.

3. Know What Different Rental Prices Mean for the Quality of the Condo

In Bangkok, condos come in all price ranges. There are cheap condos, mid-range condos, and even premium condos. In general, avoid cheap condos since they usually have poor plumbing, bad electrical wiring, and will generally come with other problems you would rather not go through on a daily basis. In the least, you should strive to get a condo with a mid-range price if budget is a big issue for you.

You will even get better choices with regard to location by going for a decently priced condo. Obviously, if your pocket can take it, it is always better to rent a high-end condo so that you do not have any limitations on choices of locations, furnishings, and access to important services and amenities.

4. Make a Point of Visiting the Condo You Intend to Rent in Person

Sure, photos can give you a pretty good idea of what to expect from your rented condo, but it still does not compensate for the added benefit that comes with visiting the condo in person. Photos can easily make you start imagining things about the place you are looking at, and then get disappointed later when you actually visit the place.

For instance, the place could look bigger in photos, or better furnished than it actually is. Furthermore, visiting a condo will give you a feel of the kind of neighborhood the property is located in, something most photos will not show you. Consequently, make sure that you visit the condo in person before signing any contracts and paying any money.

5. Try To Negotiate on the Price

Negotiations are very common in the Thai business culture, even in the renting of residential properties. Usually, people try to get a 5% to 10% discount on the listed price. If you intend to rent for quite some time, the savings could be quite significant. Furthermore, if you are working with a restrictive budget, negotiating will help you get a better deal while still remaining within your budget limits.

In general, you need to have an outline of what you are looking for when renting a condo in Bangkok. The most important factors to consider include the location and access to amenities. You should also consider some key aspects of Bangkok condo renting culture such as negotiations and payment of deposits. You also need to know what kinds of condo to avoid, and be willing to visit the condo you intend to rent in person.

UK 'in grip of worst flu season since 2011'

By Nick Triggle
Health correspondent

image copyrightGetty Images

The UK is in the grip of its worst flu season for seven years, figures show.

All parts of the UK have seen rises in suspected flu cases since the turn of the year with Wales seeing the sharpest - close to a fourfold increase in GP visits to 64.9 cases per 100,000.

The last time there was more flu circulating than this was in 2010-11 when swine flu, responsible for the pandemic of the year before, came back.

Hospitals are also seeing "very high" rates of admissions, officials said.

However, it appears the strain known as Aussie flu is not causing the most serious illnesses, according to the weekly report up to last Sunday from Public Health England.

Instead - of the four strains circulating - a B strain, which does not normally cause high rates of severe illness, is responsible for about half the hospital cases.

Prof Paul Cosford, of PHE, said while there was a lot of flu circulating it was "not an epidemic" - and there were signs the flu season may be beginning to peak as the rate of increase was slowing down.

He also said that death rates seemed to be lower than they were in two of the last three winters.

What is flu?

Flu symptoms can come on very quickly and can last for a week or more.

Symptoms include a fever - temperature above 38C - aches, headache, tiredness, a chesty cough, tummy pain and loss of appetite.

Children can also get pain in their ears and appear lacking in energy.

Flu can be particularly unpleasant for certain people, such as the over-65s, pregnant women and those with other serious health conditions.

The flu virus can live for many hours on hard surfaces and therefore practising good hand hygiene can limit the spread of germs and transmission of flu.

People are advised to catch coughs and sneezes in a tissue, bin it, and then wash their hands afterwards to kill the germs.

Having the vaccine, if you are eligible, is the best protection, health officials say.

NHS pressures beginning to ease

Despite the the rising levels of flu the NHS has begun to get on top of the pressures being seen in A&E units, NHS England said.

A spokesman said pressures seemed to be "abating" and hospitals were "generally coping".

It comes after the weekly data showed falls in the number of ambulances delayed waiting outside A&E and bed closures caused by the vomiting bug norovirus.

If you can't see the NHS Tracker, click or tap here.

Nonetheless, hospitals remain incredibly busy with bed occupancy levels well above safe levels in most of the country.

Saffron Cordery, of NHS Providers, which represents hospitals bosses, said: "We're still working at or beyond full stretch, resulting - at times - in care for patients that falls short of what trusts and their staff want to provide."

And officials warned the cold snap expected to hit the north of England over the next few days could lead to an increase in illnesses.

The North East, North West and Yorkshire and Humber have been put on the second highest level of alert with icy conditions and heavy snow forecast up to Sunday.

17.11.20 Confirmed Cases Letter

Dear Parent /Carer

COVID-19 Confirmed Case

I have been informed that a Year 10 and a Year 7 learner have had a confirmed case of COVID-19. Both learners have not been in school since last week and all those that have had ‘direct or close’ contact with the confirmed cases have been identified and instructed to self-isolate for 14 days.

We know that you may find this concerning, but we are continuing to monitor the situation and are working closely with Public Health England. This letter is to inform you of the current situation and provide advice on how to support your child. Please be reassured that for most people, coronavirus (COVID-19) will be a mild illness. The school remains open for Year 7 – 10 and your child should continue to attend as normal if they remain well.

I am currently working with Public Health Protection Team and with the Department for Education (DfE) to take the necessary steps to ensure that all staff and learners are safe.

The academy remains open as normal for Year 7 – 10 apart from those self-isolating or have a confirmed case of COVID-19.

What to do if your child develops symptoms of COVID 19

If your child develops symptoms of COVID-19, they must not come to school and should remain at home for at least 10 days from the date when their symptoms appeared. Anyone with symptoms will be eligible for testing and this can be arranged via or by calling 119.

All other household members who remain well, must stay at home and not leave the house for 14 days. This includes anyone in your ‘Support Bubble’.

Further information is available at: stay-at-home-guidance/stay-at-home-guidance-for-households-with-possible-coronaviruscovid-19-infection

Household members staying at home for 14 days will greatly reduce the overall amount of infection the household could pass on to others in the community.

If you are able, move any vulnerable individuals (such as the elderly and those with underlying health conditions) out of your home, to stay with friends or family for the duration of the home isolation period.

The most common symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) are the recent onset of:

- a new continuous cough

- a high temperature

- a loss of, or change in, your normal sense of taste or smell (anosmia)

For most people, coronavirus (COVID-19) will be a mild illness. If your child does develop symptoms, you can seek advice from the website at If you are concerned about your child’s symptoms, or they are worsening you can seek advice from NHS 111 at or by phoning 111.

How to stop COVID-19 spreading

There are things you can do to help reduce the risk of you and anyone you live with getting ill with COVID-19

- wash your hands with soap and water often – do this for at least 20 seconds

- use hand sanitiser gel if soap and water are not available

- wash your hands as soon as you get home

- cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands) when you cough or sneeze

- put used tissues in the bin immediately and wash your hands afterwards

What you need to do:

- If your child is isolating please ensure that they access their work on MS Teams, set by their teachers.

- If your child is not self-isolating please ensure that they bring and wear a mask as they enter the academy building and any communal areas.

Should you have any further question please email

Yours sincerely

Mr S Dhami

Patients who have the now recalled Medtronic Sprint Fidelis Leads implanted face an important decision. Those who have not suffered from a malfunction must decide whether or not to have the leads capped to avoid having their defibrillator malfunction.

Unfortunately, some people who have the leads implanted no longer have insurance coverage, so they are left wondering what they should do. Furthermore, while they still have the leads implanted they feel limited in the activities they can take part in because they do not know if their defibrillator will work the way it is meant to.

Eric Taylor (not his real name) is one such person. Last year, he suffered a massive heart attack and doctors implanted a Medtronic defibrillator and Sprint Fidelis Leads. Approximately three weeks ago, Taylor received a letter from his doctor’s office to come in and have his leads checked. At the office, Taylor’s nurse told him there was a recall on some of Medtronic’s leads and she needed to check his to see if they were recalled. Sure enough, Taylor had some of the recalled Sprint Fidelis Leads implanted.

“The nurse told me that in order to fix the problem I would need further surgery, but I have no insurance now,” Taylor says. “After my serious heart attack last year, it took me more than a year to recover so I lost my job. What can I do? Who is going to pay for surgery?”

For now, the nurse has changed the settings on Taylor’s defibrillator. “Before, if my heart went above 130, the defibrillator was set to go off,” Taylor says. “Now, she has changed the setting to a lower heart rate, around 100-110, so if my heart goes above that rate the defibrillator will go off. But there is no guarantee that it will work because of the defective lead. I am limited to what I can do because I do not want my heart to be at a high rate and the defibrillator to malfunction. I do not want to take a risk.”

Perhaps if Taylor’s defibrillator malfunctioned, someone would take action regarding his leads. But so far, he has not experienced any problems. He has simply been told that one of his leads is “bad” and he needs to have it taken care of. “I need surgery ASAP,” Taylor says. “I would have it tomorrow if I could…”

Taylor says he has tried contacting Medtronic about the issue but so far has not heard back from them. “I would like to have this problem fixed immediately, but with no insurance will they do it? Medtronic should not put defective devices into humans. Now I have to go under the knife again and there’s no guarantee I will come back alive.”

In 2014, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued new regulations for helicopter safety, as discussed previously in a prior issue of this Report. Many of the new, stricter regulations were aimed at addressing the major causes of helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) crashes. While HEMS owners and operators have been implementing the new safety regulations, one problem persists and continues to claim the lives of pilots and patient passengers – dangerous fuel tanks.

It is a problem that changed David Repsher’s life on July 3, 2015. David was a flight nurse on Air Methods Flight for Life AS350B3e that day and reported that he accompanied flight paramedic Matt Bowe and pilot Pat Mahaney on a seemingly routine trip aboard the medical helicopter. As the helicopter was departing St. Anthony’s Summit Medical Center in Frisco, Colorado, a problem occurred that sent the aircraft into a tailspin and after struggling to regain control for more than 30 seconds, it crashed to the ground in the hospital’s parking lot.

The incident was captured on surveillance video and showed that the three crew members survived the crash. However, just seconds after the crash, fuel that leaked from the ruptured tanks ignited. All three crew members barely escaped the flames before the helicopter burst into a ball of fire. Pat succumbed to his injuries within a few days of the crash while Matt was released from the hospital soon after the tragic incident. However, Dave was burned on almost 90 percent of his body.

After a year in the hospital, countless surgeries and other procedures and following several near-death experiences, Dave was released from the hospital. While he was still alive and thankful, his ravaged body no longer reflected the athletic outdoorsmen he was before the crash. Months spent in a medically induced coma dropped his weight from 180 pounds to 89. The strong antibiotics he needed to fight off infection destroyed his kidneys, requiring him to have four hours of dialysis five nights a week for the rest of his life or until he can find a donor.

An in-depth investigation into the dangerous fuel tanks by Denver, Colorado, NBC affiliate KUSA 9News explains how the tragic turn in Dave’s life could have been prevented. The KUSA investigative team discovered that despite a decades-old solution, a federal loophole allows even modern helicopters to use fuel tanks with dangerous designs.

In 1968, at the height of the Vietnam War, the U.S. Army Aeromedical Research Laboratory noted that Army Chief of Staff General Harold K. Johnson invested $3 million into research and development of a crashworthy fuel system. By this time in military aviation, military leaders had learned that the fuel tank design was often the culprit for the fiery helicopter crashes that claimed the lives of many pilots. If the plastic encasement was not crashworthy the tanks would crack on impact, releasing fuel. The volatile atmosphere would not need much to spark a hot, fast burning fire, igniting the aircraft into a ball of flames. Industry insiders compare the flimsy design to a large milk jug.

In the 1970s, the U.S. military began incorporating safer alternative fuel tank designs like the Robertson Crashworthy Fuel System or the “Robbie Tank,” according to the National Aviation Hall of Fame. The fuel system was first used in the Army’s Bell UH-1 Huey helicopter in April 1970. The alternative design with its “ballistically tolerant, self-sealing fuel cells” is safer and has been credited with saving thousands of lives. Before the new design, 40 percent of Army pilot fatalities occurred in severe crashes that resulted in fires. Retired Army Colonel Dennis Shanahan told KUSA that by 1976, when he began researching the issue, every Army helicopter was equipped with newer and sturdier designed fuel tanks. Yet, helicopter manufacturers continue to resist making the same upgrades on civilian helicopters despite the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and FAA’s efforts.

For example, the Flight for Life AS350 helicopter Dave was riding on when it crashed was manufactured by Airbus in 2014. However, the first AS350 was certified in 1977. A 1994 FAA mandate carved out a loophole to pacify helicopter manufacturers more concerned with their bottom lines than keeping passengers safe. The mandate required all helicopters certified after 1994 to be fitted with a crash-resistant fuel system when it is manufactured. Therefore, while the aircraft was approximately only a year old, legally it was still able to fly with flimsy fuel tanks since it was certified nearly 20 years before the mandate.

The cost of the upgrades, which is the equivalent of one to two percent of the manufacturing cost, is still considered steep by helicopter manufacturers. Industry experts estimate the cost to retrofit an existing helicopter is approximately $100,000 while the current price of the AS350 helicopter, for example, is $1.6 million. And, following a March 2016 Safety Recommendation Report issued by the NTSB, manufacturers still have the option not to retrofit. Although it recommended retrofitting all helicopters, it stopped short of requiring the action.

As of last summer, nearly 84 percent (4,700 of the 5,600) of the helicopters manufactured since the 1994 mandate do not use crash-resistant tanks.

I never dreamed how much this would mean to me

I received another check today, much to my surprise. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I never dreamed how much this would mean to me in my golden years, as I have had hearing problems for years and needed to update my hearing aids, but with a limited income, found that was impossible. I now have the best hearing aids that I have ever had, thanks to you fighting so hard on my behalf.

A lawsuit filed in Mississippi against Verizon over an allegedly faulty 911 system has been settled. The terms of the settlement between Verizon Communications Inc. and James and Jessica Wendell have not been disclosed. The claims are based on what was described as a faulty 911 system. U.S. District Judge David Bramlette dismissed the pending lawsuit after the settlement was announced. The Wendells sued Verizon in June, alleging that their calls for help went unanswered as they and their child were being held hostage by an escaped inmate accused of rape and murder. It was alleged in the complaint that their repeated 911 calls were rerouted through Tallulah, Louisiana.

In January, Judge Bramlette ruled that the family’s claims should be in private arbitration rather than in the courts. In their attempts to keep the claims in federal court, the family had argued their contract with Verizon was “substantively unconscionable” and therefore unenforceable under Mississippi law. The Wendells also claimed that the contract containing the arbitration clause was “one of adhesion wherein all bargaining power is held by Verizon.” The Wendells failed to convince the Judge Bramlette.

It was alleged that James Wendell managed to call 911 several times while being held captive by capital murder suspect Rafael McCloud, who had escaped from jail in March 2016. McCloud, the subject of a manhunt, forced his way into the Wendells’ home armed with a knife and held them and their 4-year-old son hostage.

After repeatedly dialing 911 on his pocketed cell phone with no police response, James Wendell made a failed attempt to subdue McCloud. After the inmate stabbed James Wendell in the back, beat Jessica Wendell and threatened to rape her, Mrs. Wendell managed to get a hidden handgun from a guest bathroom and she shot the escaped convict. James Wendell then fatally shot McCloud.

The couple claims Verizon and Safety and Security Technologies Inc. acted negligently and in breach of warranty in failing to correctly program the emergency 911 call system in Vicksburg-Warren County, causing James Wendell’s repeated 911 calls to be rerouted to a neighboring state.

The Wendells are represented by Ed Blackmon, Jr. and Bradford J. Blackmon of Blackmon & Blackmon PLLC. The case is Wendell et al. v. Verizon Communications Inc. et al. (case number 5:16-cv-00050) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi.

I’ve been reading through the major and minor prophets and, honestly, it’s sometimes difficult to find ways to apply them to everyday life beyond the simple warnings that God will not put off punishment forever.

However, I came across Ezekiel 16:17-19 and it started me thinking about talents and how we spend the blessings God gives us.

Before I explain where I’m going with this, here are the verses: “You also took the fine jewelry I gave you, the jewelry made of my gold and silver and you made for yourself male idols and engaged in prostitution with them. And you took your embroidered clothes to put on them, and you offered my oil and incense before them. Also the food I provided for you -- the flour, olive oil and honey I gave you to eat -- you offered as fragrant incense before them. That is what happened, declares the Sovereign Lord.”

So, I know that in this context, God is reprimanding Israel for following other gods but I think it says something to us about how we spend our blessings and our gifts.

I’m going to make this personal by explaining how I think it applies to me. God gave me a talent for writing. Yet, how often do I use it for God’s work? The answer - More now than I previously did. This blog is me giving Him control over my talent. Certain of my stories are specifically written to point out His lessons. But, these things aren’t the only things I write.

I was watching a show the other night and the one supposedly christian character was a hypocrite and an idiot. (I know this seems like a tangent but bear with me). The character really annoyed me because she is just the most recent and most obviously insulting way christian characters are portrayed in books and on visual media. Don’t believe me? Think about the movies and books you’ve read lately. Odds are, the only ‘christians’ in them are people who aren’t actually practicing christianity, who are just good people like Cornelius or they are portrayed hypocrites or uneducated or just plain stupid.

It’s annoying...and (here’s where I’m circling back) what am I going to do about it?

God gave me a talent for writing...so what am I going to do about the lack of truly Christian characters in mainstream media? Am I going to give God my writing only in a small area, only for this blog, only for a few short stories? What will I do with my talent that God gave me the rest of the time - leave Christianity out of it? Leave God out of it?

If I leave God out of my other writing, who am I serving? Am I giving jewelry He made for me to the idols of public adulation and popularity, the idol of writing for the current trends?

Maybe it’s a stretch but I’m not so sure.

We were created and designed with a plan. Ephesians 2:10 states “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in him.”

So, how did God prepare us for good works? He gave us talents and tendencies and even weaknesses that can be used for His glory and to further His plan.

Yet, how often do we use our talents for God?

Please take a moment to think about it and before you think that your talent isn’t useful because you’re not a teacher or a writer or great at making money, understand, there is a need for every sort of talent in the body. My home congregation and my parents’ home congregation have both benefited from members who are gardeners. They have used their talent with gardening to make the landscape around the buildings look nice and cared for instead of neglected. By making the building look nice, it makes the building more welcoming. This may not seem as important as preaching before thousands or founding a Bible college but it is important. Our buildings are our first impression on those that need us. Who would want to go to a hospital surrounded by overgrown weeds? Would you have faith that they are caring, conscientious people?

Probably not.

Well, the buildings we worship in are hospitals for sick and dying souls. We want them to come to us.

Other examples: I had a Sunday school teacher that used her love of baking to encourage her class to learn. Learning the books of the Bible and a certain number of scriptures would earn a child in her class a cake specially decorated for them. My dad often shares a story from when he preached in Alaska. The congregation there wanted to set up a new program. A member of the congregation was very successful artist who had two paintings that he rented out for thousands of dollars. Please note: This man rented these paintings, didn’t sell them. Companies were willing to pay him a lot of money just to have these paintings in their building for a limited amount of time. Without hesitation, the artist sold one of those paintings and funded the entire program. He could have simply donated the proceeds from one or two rentals or a portion of his income but, instead, he devoted his talent and blessings to God first and sold the painting so the program could be fully funded without worry.

Please, understand, I’m not saying you should never derive personal benefit from your talent or use it for your own success and enjoyment. Many people use their talents to support themselves and their families which is as it should be. The artist that sold the painting supported his family with his painting. The people that care for the landscapes of their congregtion’s buildings have their own gardens at home that they enjoy.

Recharging one’s self and resting is not forbidden or selfish God rested after creating the world.

In addition, there is nothing wrong with using one’s talents for one’s own enjoyment. There are plenty of jokes that God created the platypus as a practical joke on humanity or for His own humanity and, honestly, it may be true. We were created in God’s image and humans have a sense of humor so, logically, God has a sense of humor. So, who is to say God didn’t create the platypus for fun? I’m not saying He did, I’m just pointing out that God gave us a need to rest and a need for amusement so, no, we don’t have to use our talents only for work.

However, I do think we need to think about how often we use our talents and blessings for God and how often we use it for ourselves. Or, maybe more importantly, do we think of using them for God first or for ourselves or to gain worldly success first?

When you get a really big tax refund, is your first thought to get a nicer car or upgrade your computer or something else that would be nice, but not necessary, or do you first give thanks to God for the blessing and check around you to see if there’s something or someone you know that God meant that money for?

Again, I’m not saying that that big tax refund can’t be used for buying a better computer or car. I’m not even saying that God didn’t give it to you specifically so you could improve your life in some matter. I’m talking about where do our thoughts go to first: What we want to do with it or what God might want to do with it?

It’s about attitude and priorities.

I’m not saying that you can’t paint a picture because you like it or write a short story just because. I’m not saying you can’t try to become a professional with your talent. I’m not even saying that all of my fiction from now on will be Christian fiction.

I’m saying...take a look at your thought processes and how you’re using your talents and blessings for. Ask yourself, who has the priority and is there a need that I’m overlooking, a good work that God equipped me to do that I haven’t been doing.

For me, I see a lack of truly strong and devout Christian characters in today’s stories and I am a writer so...it looks like I need to rework a few things.

COLOGNE — It used to be a country where internet users did not want to pay for things found online.

But, by 2022, Russian consumers’ ecommerce spending is set to reach the equivalent of $403.91 a year.

One company in prime position to benefit is, the 2o-year-old online retailer that has partnered with ad retargeting company Criteo to find a 33% hike in Facebook sales and a 60% jump in sales from in-app mobile campaigns.

In this video interview with Beet.TV, commercial director Konstantin Bayandin explains why retargeting helps relocate consumers who seemed initially to be interested in listed products.

He also explains the fascinating way in which had to think differently to gain market share, and what the road ahead looks like.

“Historically, Russia was really hard market for e-commerce because of lack of really good delivery service,” he says. “The players on the market had to develop their own delivery in order to compete with each other, so did us.

“So we have our own delivery infrastructure in Russia which is quite good and goes well, so we want to open up our infrastructure for other players for the market and to create a marketplace with our own website and our own fulfilment and logistics.”

This interview is part of a series titled Advertising Reimagined: The View from DMEXCO 2018, presented by Criteo. Please find more videos from the series here.

A woman arrested under the Terrorism Act in connection with Lyra McKee's murder has been released unconditionally.

The 29-year-old journalist was shot dead on Thursday night while covering riots in the Fanad Drive area of Creggan, Derry .

Ms McKee, who was from North Belfast but moved to Derry to live with partner Sara Canning, was rushed to Altnagelvin Hospital in the back of a police Land Rover but died shortly after.

This morning police revealed a 57-year-old woman had been arrested.

A PSNI spokeswoman said: "Major Investigation Team detectives have arrested a 57-year-old woman under the Terrorism Act in connection with the murder of Lyra McKee in Creggan in Derry/Londonderry on Thursday, 18th April.

"She has been taken to Musgrave Serious Crime Suite."

They said around 7pm on Tuesday evening: "A 57-year-old woman arrested this morning by detectives investigating the murder of Lyra McKee has now been released unconditionally.

"Detectives from PSNI Major Investigation Team continue to appeal for help from the local community in Creggan."

Tester Trunk Shows: What Are They?

Tester Trunk Shows: What Are They?. Mobile Image

Sep 11, 2020

Hello Beautiful Brides!

When it comes to bridal fashion, designers are constantly working to give brides the lastest and greatest styles. They analyze trends, hunt for new fabrics and beading, look at the performance history of their past designs, and more! One of their favorite ways of getting direct feedback for new styles is through test shows. We did a blog post in the past about what trunk shows are and how they allow stores unique opportunities to bring in designs they have; but a test trunk show is even more exclusive!

Test trunk shows let bridal stores like us bring in a designer's tentative new collections. These designs have not even hit production yet! Our store and our brides get to be the testers for these new designs so the designers know which gowns to add to the collection and which ones brides arent favoring. They listen carefully to feedback and make changes based on what the brides who try them on like and dislike. Here are a few advantages of attending a tester trunk show:

1) Exclusive opportunity to give direct feedback to a designer you love: Our designers send us test shows and encourage us to get direct feedback from brides on the pros and cons of the gowns they try. They are intently listening and ready to make changes based on what you have to say! We relay everything said directly back to the designer, in this case Martin Thornburg himself.

2) First Access to a unreleased bridal collection: You get to be the FIRST to try on these designs!

3) One of a Kind Gowns: The designs you try on may or may not make the chop for the new collection, but if you fall in love with one that does not get produced it can still be made for you! This presents an opportunity to get a gown literally no one else will have, because you had the opportunity to try it on before it was even presented to the public

Ask when we are hosting our next Testing Trunk Show... We cannot wait to see what you have to say!

Never Before Told Stories About Steins Gate Crunchyroll You Need to Read or Be Left Out

Just in the event you will need a little assistance. In any case, there are still plenty of reasons to watch even in the event that you know the way that it'll end. Made in Abyss is a superb case of how music can amplify the feelings you obtain from the visuals of a sequence. Next let's look at the homunculi. There's a postmodern feel you're able to see in Kaneki's hopelessness. Always be happy and attempt to help people be happy.
At the close of the day, it is a joke, but it reflects something more. One of the things which I like least about Gunslinger Girl is it's an unfinished anime. Before knowing how to kill a vampire you will first must determine that the man is actually a vampire. Not that the point is going to be explored.
Vampires don't have a reflection and can't be observed in mirrors. Edward, nevertheless, is gone. Don't be worried about it, Tommy explained. In fact, he was the one who first suggested me.
A whole lot are offered in English on Steam. So you've just finished an awesome anime and youare curious about another anime, if you wish to understand about it and if youad like up a review, and not only a video review. Unfortunately there's no way to get around that, except to receive a new TV. In addition, everything becomes resolved inside an episode or two. The very first episode is essentially seen via the perspective of the principal character, Yuki. For example, it takes place before the events of Bakemonogatari, while the second episode takes place after. As soon as you've selected a series to watch, tapping into it is going to show an overall synopsis of the collection.

The Battle Over Steins Gate Crunchyroll and How to Win It

In any anime, there are many elements to look at. The facets of time and time traveling are the field of concern of the series, reason why Rintaro has the capability to travel back in time to correct things which are likely to take place later on. Items may have a wide selection of effects like clearing all the pieces of a particular kind, or granting bonuses for matches of four or more for the remainder of the date. While character growth is a significant aspect for a well written character to get, however, it is not needed. The Capital is really the center of all of the corruption and evil deeds in the world that there would not be a hope unless it's abolished. After numerous decades, the city has reestablished lots of its preceding brilliance.
When it comes to music, it's rarely heard. Sometimes, a scarcity of music can create a moment more surreal than one with music. Music for TV may often be pushed further in the background, though there are a couple of shows that have created a vast and visual soundtrack that boost the effect of the images onscreen. Second, soundtracks play a vital role in producing a fantastic movie even better. The very first thing you'll probably notice about the movies as soon as you start watching them is that the art and animation are not the same as that found in the remainder of the set.
The increasingly intriguing plot of the latter part of the series was not enough to compensate for the shortcomings of the anime. Even though you can't begin making your story in case you don't Idea. Its story involves a succession of quests following the anime's major storyline. Although stories you've read or watched is among the simplest regions to come across ideas, take care when taking inspiration from different works.

The Characteristics of Steins Gate Crunchyroll

The 2 brothers travel the world trying to find a means to regain what they have lost. Basically kids are merely gullible. At the exact same time, simply because it's something which I picked up as a child doesn't signify that it's only for kids. While there are lots of instances of superior anime also being popular, there are equally as many instances of the opposite being true also. Really, my primary issue is the thing that comes after. The second issue NGE has going against it's that there's currently no legal means to stream it in america (and possibly elsewhere beyond Japan).
The battle isn't the war, after all. The games themselves split evenly regarding genre. Sword Art Online is a Shonen Anime, dependent on the Manga collection of the identical name. It would be intriguing to observe how that worked in anime form. An additional thing I wish to touch on with respect to artistic vision is the portrayal of character introductions. Titles which were originally simulcast during the 2 decades of the partnership will remain on both sites.

B.E.S.T. Innovation course , one of my best experiences!

Working in a multidisciplinary and multicultural team, with different working philosophies and strong personalities was both a challenge and an opportunity. I also discovered skills and interests I thought I haven’t got, as I was able to put myself into the shoes of an engineer or a businesswoman. But most of all, I was really impressed by the courses and workshops as we were introduced into the innovation world and this innovation stamina was seeded into our hearts and minds.

For me, it was a perspective changing experience.
So enjoy your young researcher’s lifetime and make the B.E.S.T. out of it!

Amy Winehouse Friend Claims He Took Singer to Buy Drugs

Amy Winehouse Friend Claims He Took Singer to Buy Drugs

Older man makes startling claim about singer.

Published August 2, 2011

It hasn’t taken long for alleged friends of the late Amy Winehouse to start sharing stories about what the troubled singer did days before her death. One friend in particular is claiming that the day before Winehouse died, he took her to buy drugs. Tony Azzopardi had a second interview with police yesterday to discuss these claims.

According to the 56-year-old, he met with Amy near her home in Camden, North London, around 11:00 P.M. on July 22. Tony says Amy wanted him to help her obtain narcotics, which resulted in them taking a taxi to nearby West Hampstead. Upon their arrival Tony says he made a call to a dealer and Amy purchased a half ounce of crack cocaine and heroin.

"She gave me a kiss on the cheek and that was it — the last time I saw her," Azzopardi says. "She looked good, you know, fit like she'd been clean for a while and filled out a bit. I couldn't believe it when I found out she was gone."

These claims contradict Amy’s father, Mitch Winehouse, who said that her daughter had been drug free for three years and potentially died from going cold turkey on alcohol after problems with alcoholism.

Forest Whitaker Falsely Accused of Stealing from NYC Deli

Forest Whitaker Falsely Accused of Stealing from NYC Deli

Oscar-winning actor blasts deli over "upsetting incident."

Published February 17, 2013

An employee at New York deli Milano Market picked on the wrong guy.

TMZ reports that Oscar-winning actor and director Forest Whitaker was stopped by a worker on his way out of the Upper East Side eatery and accused of stealing from the establishment. The store employee reportedly frisked and searched the Last King of Scotland star in public, and, unsurprisingly, found nothing stolen on his person.

"This was an upsetting incident given the fact that Forest did nothing more than walk into deli," Whitaker's rep tells the site. "What is most unfortunate about this situation is the inappropriate way store employees are treating patrons of their establishment. Frisking individuals without proof/evidence is a violation of rights."

Whitaker's rep adds, "Forest did not call the authorities at the request of the worker who was in fear of losing his employment. Forest asked that, in the future, the store change their behavior and treat the public in a fair and just manner."

Shockingly, the manager of Milano Market flatly denies Whitaker's claims, telling E! News "nothing ever happened at this location."

Love Teaching, Keep Teaching:

The essential guide to improving well-being at all levels in schools.

Peter Radford

A practical guide to staying well in a high-pressure profession.

In the midst of a recruitment crisis and a massive exodus of teachers from our schools, now is the time for some joined-up thinking about teacher well-being and mental health.

Filled with insightful advice and practical strategies, Peter Radford’s Love Teaching, Keep Teaching invites educators to think differently about the way education is ‘done’ and shows them how they can keep doing the job they love without sacrificing their health and well-being. Furthermore, he paints a picture of a truly ‘healthy school’ as being one in which the value of each staff member and student is fundamental to everything they do and shapes the way they do it.

Peter also offers a fresh perspective on school leadership, encouraging leaders to rethink common practices and to explore the rewards and benefits of employing a people-focused approach both in the staffroom and across the school.

Love Teaching Keep Teaching

About the Author:

Peter Radford is a teacher, trainer, public speaker and coach with a wealth of experience in leadership, management and personal development.
