The golden boy of Pakistan golf

Khalid Hussain talks to Ahmed Baig and finds out that the 19-year-old has what it takes to shine in international golf

The golden boy of Pakistan golf

When Sir Nick Faldo saw Ahmed Baig at the sprawling Laguna Lang Co Golf Club in Danang, Vietnam, in March this year, the first thing he noticed about the 19-year-old was how well turned out he was for the awards ceremony. The golf legend was lavish in his praise on Ahmed as he commended the youngster on his golfing attire and the way he carried himself.

Sir Nick, one of the biggest names on the international golfing scene, would have been equally lavish in his praise had he witnessed Ahmed’s heroics on the golf course. Pakistan’s fastest rising youngster was in his element at the Laguna course as he swept to a title-winning triumph in the Under-21 event of the Faldo Series Asia Finals, the first player from his country to achieve this feat.

The victory in Vietnam was one of the many wins for Ahmed in recent months. Before that he ran roughshod over his rivals to cruise to a crushing win in the Pakistan Leg of the Faldo Series in Karachi in January. Recently, he won the Sindh Amateur crown at the Karachi Golf Club after getting a special invitation from Asad I.A Khan, President Sindh Golf Association (SGA), to play in the prestigious event.

But the biggest win of his career so far came in Doha in January this year when he claimed the Qatar Amateur Golf Championship, winning not just accolades and a glittering trophy but a prized invitation to feature in February’s Qatar Masters, a European Tour event.

With his big-hitting prowess and a flair for making birdies, the sky seems to be the limit for this Lahore youngster, who has emerged as the big hope for Pakistan golf.

However, despite his meteoric rise, the best thing about Ahmed is that his feet are firmly planted on the ground.

His association with golf began as a teenage caddy but thanks to his two older brothers, both of whom work as caddies in Lahore, Ahmed got the opportunity to exhibit his talents on the course.

It is surprising that Ahmed didn’t pick up golf at a very young age. It was only when he was around 15 when people around him began to notice that he had talent.

“It was my older brother Usman who told me to take up golf,” Ahmed told me as we sat in the cozy environs of Asad I A Khan’s residence in Karachi.

Before that Ahmed had followed in his brothers’ footsteps but it seems he wasn’t destined to pull other players’ bags. In 2014 he played his first tournament and made an instant impression.

He played and won matches in several Punjab cities and played in Karachi for the first time in 2016 when he featured in the Chevron-DHA Open at DACGC. It turned out to be a memorable event for him as he had a hole-in-one and soon he was selected to represent Pakistan in Malaysia.

Apart from his brothers, the one man who has really supported Ahmed is Brig Bajwa.

“He (Brig Bajwa) has really supported me over the years in terms of coaching, guidance and any other assistance,” he said.

As a youngster, Ahmed was in love with golf. He would even skip his exams to play in golf tournaments. His parents wanted him to pursue his studies but it was his brother Usman who decided that Ahmed’s future was in golf.

“My parents would think that I was in school but actually I would be playing in some golf tournament. It was Usman who helped me get away with it.”

Since making his international debut in 2016, Ahmed has represented Pakistan in Malaysia, Sri Lanka, China, Iran and Qatar.

The soft-spoken Ahmed is quietly confident about his future in big-time golf. One of the chief reasons behind it is that he is a natural when it comes to hitting it long.

“My biggest strength is my distance. I can hit the ball long. It gives me an edge over others. But I have to work on my short game.”

Ahmed has already established himself as Pakistan’s top-ranked amateur and now wants to turn professional.

“I have always wanted to take up golf as a profession,” he said.

But it is on the advice of Asad I A Khan and several other well-wishers that Ahmed has shelved his plans to turn professional at least for the moment.

“I have told him (Ahmed) to continue playing as an amateur till the time he wins the National championship and is head and shoulders above the other amateurs,” said Asad, who has represented Pakistan at the amateur and senior levels.

Ahmed believes that with proper support talented youngsters like him can excel at the international level.

“They should establish academies in Pakistan. Our players should be coached and trained at those academies. That is something missing from our golf as there is no proper system.

“The golf federation should send maximum number of youngsters abroad because you learn a lot from such exposure. Personally, I learnt a lot while participating in international events.

“The first time I went abroad (Malaysia), I was completely overawed but slowly I learned to give my best in international events.

“My aim is to win international laurels for Pakistan first at the amateur level and then in professional tournaments.”

Manitoba NDP Wraps Successful 2018 Convention

Brandon, MB - The Manitoba NDP 2018 Convention wrapped up today as delegates met in Brandon to focus on building towards the 2020 election and making Brian Pallister a one-term premier.

Throughout Convention 2018, delegates expressed opposition to Pallister’s heath care and education cuts that hurt Manitoba families and seniors. Resolutions were passed rejecting two-tier American-style privatized health care, calling for improved support for those dealing with addictions and mental health, condemning Pallister’s plan to close emergency rooms and urgent care centres and supporting a national universal pharmacare program.

NDP Announces Commission

Winnipeg, MB – Manitoba New Democrats announced the appointment of two women that will lead the Commission to Establish a Safe and Respectful Political Environment. The Commission is tasked with investigating the experiences of staff and elected officials who were subject to sexual harassment and misconduct.

The commission will be led by Kemlin Nembhard and Sandra Delaronde. Biographies for both are attached.

The goals of the commission will be:

An Update on the NDP Commission to Establish a Safe and Respectful Political Work Environment

Dear Friends,

Last week the Manitoba NDP Executive approved a proposal to create a Commission to Establish a Safe and Respectful Political Environment. This past week was difficult, and very triggering for many people, and we acknowledge the courage of the women who have come forward and shared their experiences about sexual harassment at work. We need to do much more to ensure safety and respect for all employees, MLAs, members and others.

Our commission will have four goals:

Manitoba New Democrats Pay Off Party Debt

Winnipeg, MB – Manitoba’s New Democratic Party announced today it has cleared outstanding debt from the 2016 election.

In year-end fundraising, the party brought in $82,500, almost twice what was raised in that same period in 2016.

NDP Leader Wab Kinew said that all money raised will now be about the 2020 election, to challenge Pallister’s agenda of cuts.

From Joyanne-

At age 5 I asked my parents "Where are the pictures of me?" The family album was filled with adorable pictures of my sister and brother but there were none of me. When I came around they couldn't afford to take my baby pictures. Oddly I developed a big interest in photography. I would take many pictures on a film camera and never developed the photos.

April, 2008 I arrive in the beautiful country of the United States of America. Coming from an impoverished country to this estate, I was amazed. The first thing I wanted was a digital camera. Every Christmas and birthday I requested a camera to be my gift. I got a Nintendo ds just for the dual camera on the front and back.

At age 16 I attempted to start my business quickly failing. I started back again at age 19. In one year I was able to go full time garnering attention all over the world. My ultimate goals as a woman is to uplift others. I pray that my life, words, and heart will inspire others to be the very best the can possible be.

You are hereHabitat 1982- / The Gadfly

The Gadfly

Every crusade begins with a cause, and every crusader seeks out his or her own brand of justice. In the case of a man we’ll call Howard, it was a problem with his bathroom vent that occurred when he was only a shareholder. He contacted the board and said that the gas dryer from a laundry room below was venting directly into his bathroom. Within five minutes of someone using the downstairs dryer, the bathroom was a sauna.

It seemed like a serious problem – yet Howard received just one call from the board. The president phoned him to say, “You are the only one complaining about this,” and then let the problem fester.

Days turned into weeks and, finally, Howard felt compelled to report the co-op to the Department of Buildings (DOB). That call ultimately solved the problem, but the visit by the DOB inspector also earned the property a violation.

Did it have to come to that?

The short answer is “no” – but the longer answer is more complex.

Howard’s initial experience with the board created a crusader. “After the dryer incident, I began paying more attention to the board’s activities,” he says. “I came to believe that ours was an entrenched board that was voted in year after year by apathetic shareholders. Our board liked to refer to the co-op members as a ‘family.’ I came to see that this feel-good metaphor was manipulative and had a dark side: the shareholders were clearly considered the children of the family who were to be seen and not heard.”

Howard ran for the board and was elected. Serving for a little over a year now, Howard has been a constant gadfly, poking and prodding, asking questions and demanding answers until everyone is probably sick of him. Yet figures such as Howard play important roles in the running of co-ops and condos. They keep boards on their toes – and, if dealt with properly, they can be a big help to community life.

Out of the Past

When Howard got on the board, he came with an agenda -– and a chip on his shoulder. He felt that the board was lazy, inept, even corrupt, ruled by an iron-fisted president. “In my opinion, the board president ran the board like it was a personal fiefdom and had a great deal of ego invested in it,” says Howard. “The president alone decided what would and what would not get onto a board meeting agenda. Board records were sloppy and incomplete. In my opinion, the board had forgotten, if they ever knew, that their primary purpose was to protect the interests of the shareholders.”

Such thoughts were natural, but, say experts, Howard would have been a more effective member if he had been a little less direct in expressing his opinions. Who wants to have a Moses on the board, constantly hectoring them about what they’re doing wrong? No wonder Howard felt that “from my first day as a board member, I encountered open hostility from management and several board members. The board, following the advice of the managing agent and attorney, made numerous attempts to obstruct any efforts I made on behalf of the shareholders.”

That obstruction was first seen when the newly elected Howard requested past records. “The building was in the midst of an expensive construction project,” says Howard, “and I asked to see the contracts pertinent to the construction. I was informed by the managing agent that, according to the attorney, I, as a board member, had no more rights to review these documents than a shareholder.” The refusal created unnecessary controversy. “To gain access to the board records, I threatened to sue, and I meant it,” recalls Howard. The board backed down.

Once he examined the records, Howard uncovered what he thought was a major scandal: poor work by a contractor and a lack of response by the board. “I discovered that some years earlier a report had been received by the board regarding the $450,000 balcony waterproofing project currently under way. The report stated that the previous $200,000 project to waterproof the balconies five years earlier had been done with improper materials that exacerbated rather than eliminated further leaking.

“When I raised the point at a board meeting, it became clear to me that no board member had ever read the report and that the possibility of a breach of contract claim against the company that used the improper materials had never been considered by the board, the managing agent, or the attorney. I have since learned that a breach of contract claim has a six-year statute of limitation; the original work was performed in 2004 and the report was received in 2009. In other words, had the board bothered to read the report when it was received in 2009, they would have been within the six-year statute of limitation.”

Life Lessons

There were more incidents – apparent ignorance kept the co-op from taking part in an energy- and cost-savings program offered by the New York State Energy and Research Development Agency (NYSERDA); possible election irregularities in the counting of votes; anger over a newsletter published by Howard that discussed the NYSERDA program – but it all comes down to the main issue facing the board and its gadfly: do you want to be right, or do you want to get things done?

“It’s all about being able to work together effectively and making informed decisions,” notes attorney Steve Wagner, a partner in Wagner Davis who is not connected to the building. “If you can’t, nothing gets done. You have to find consensus and common ground. Everyone agrees the building should be maintained; how you do it determines what kind of community you’re going to be.”

To do that, Wagner notes, a board critic may want to focus on what’s coming up, not dwell on what came before. Granted, he who forgets the past is destined to repeat it, but he who constantly looks back may end up in a crash. Says Wagner: “If he keeps looking back, he’s going to miss the headlights of the truck that is about to run him over – i.e., he may miss the next major issue the building will have.”

That said, what lessons could a board and an internal critic like Howard take away from these experiences?

Be diplomatic. Being blunt is satisfying but ultimately not rewarding. Here’s the first lesson for new board members with bees in their bonnets: don’t take a holier-than-thou position. You’ll alienate members who may be better employed as your allies.

“When the board is under attack, they take on a siege mentality,” observes attorney Stuart Saft, a partner at Dewey & LeBoeuf. “I’ve been on boards where we’re doing our job for a long time, and then somebody new comes on who doesn’t have the institutional memory of the other members. The first thing they want to do is tell us everything they know about what we should be doing, notwithstanding the fact that we have done this for years.”

“They often get on the board and feel like they have a better way to run it,” agrees Carl Borenstein, an executive at Veritas Property Management, which is not affiliated with the building,

By the same token, board members should not be brusque and offhand with fellow directors and shareholders. When Howard was constantly calling about his dryer, the board president should have handled it differently, professionals note. He may have been irritated by the caller’s complaints, but he should have been more diplomatic – and certainly should have seen that the problem was fixed. It should never have gotten to the point where the DOB was brought in.

Listen, learn, and use psychology. Howard was not humble, and his pronouncements could not have endeared him to his fellow board members. Indeed, experts say that new board members should temper their remarks. The art of politics is seeking consensus and compromise, subtly leading in the desired direction rather than pushing.

“Whenever I go on a new board, I try to listen and learn,” Saft says. “I look to see what’s happening and who’s in charge. I make suggestions as I go along. I pick my fights. Even if you know what you want to achieve, you move the other board members slowly in the direction you want them to go. It’s about group psychology.”

Co-opt your critics. The board, for its part, should have embraced the newcomer’s enthusiasm, rather than fighting it every step of the way. For instance, when the newly elected Howard requested to see past records of the corporation, the board should not have refused. “That makes him think there’s something they don’t want him to see,” says Borenstein. A lawsuit would serve no one’s purposes – both Howard and the co-op would be paying out of pocket – and Howard would have won a right he already had: to examine the co-op’s history.

Borenstein says that one way to silence critics is to assign them to committees that channel their enthusiasm into constructive areas. “Shutting him down is not the right approach. The quickest way to shut someone up is to volunteer them for a job [involving the criticized area]. I would say, you serve on a committee and see what you find. If you try to shut them down totally, that creates more animosity.”

Look at the facts as objectively as you can. Was the board president as powerful as Howard imagined? Saft says probably not and that board gadflies should not ignore facts that may indicate that the board president is not as all-powerful – and the residents not as apathetic – as you may think. After all, in Howard’s case, the critic was elected to the board, reportedly getting almost as many votes as the president. And the system was transparent enough to let him see the vote tallies. “I was impressed by the fact that he was able to get elected to the board,” observes Saft, “because if the president was running it as his personal fiefdom, he would have had the ballots counted so this guy would have lost.”

In the case of the statute of limitations and the contractor, there can be other reasons that a board might not sue a contractor in such a situation besides ignorance of the law, reasons that a competent attorney or managing agent might have explained to the board.

“The problem with bringing a claim on a $200,000 project is, what’s it going to cost to bring the claim?” observes Saft. “How certain is the reviewing engineer that the job was done improperly? Is the contractor judgment-proof at this point? If the contractor has gone out of business, or filed for bankruptcy, or has loads of claims against him, you could wind up spending $75,000 and at the end of the day getting nothing.”

Experts agree that boards and newcomers should remember that a little knowledge could almost be as dangerous as no knowledge. Howard sought out information but brought with it preconceptions that colored his interpretation of the facts. “He’s right in saying that board members have to pay attention, but he’s painting this board really badly, and I’m not sure if the problem was the board or the managing agent,” says Saft. “You need to get good advice. That’s why you hire professionals. Obviously, they had the wrong professionals.”

In the end, experts say that boards should embrace those who seek out knowledge – and follow suit. Most experts agree that if boards rely too heavily on professional advice without having the wisdom to give them perspective, the building could be heading for trouble.

“He is trying to do the right thing,” says Wagner. “He is educating himself. He is doing his homework and asking a lot of good questions.” In fact, board members, new and old, need to remember the adage, often quoted by the late co-op advocate Charles Rappaport: “An informed board is an effective board.”

One Year in Review

One year ago today I was being prepped for surgery. About this time I was being wheeled toward the elevator when John ran up to tell me thank you. Our lives would never be the same.
I feel that it is my duty to be eloquent and poinient in this post. However, if you know me, you also know that I am neither of those things. I have tried to make light of the situation over this past year because I feel that what I did was not all on me. Eric, Rebecca and our children all deserve admiration for supporting us during this time. I am sure that it was not easy to have to tend to the two of us while holding down the fort. Thank you both.
As the months have gone by I have thought less and less about the events of September 6, 2011. Many days not thinking about it at all. As the end of Summer has been nearing it has all come flooding back. The support of everyone for the fundraiser was amazing. I still cannot believe that it came together with such success on such short notice. All of the wonderful dinners delivered to our house for well over a month. In fact, Eric asked Joy B. the other day if the donation had had any effect on her. Her reply, “Not really. I just remember all of the really great food that we got to try.”
In May I ran the Ogden Marathon. I looked at it as a way to get into shape, but it was much more. My doctor had told me that it would take at least a year to get back to running that kind of distance. I was slow, but I finished. I think I cried for the last six miles. Partly from exhaustion and partly because I was doing it. The last mile Eric met up with me and ran into for the finish. Seeing him and the support that he was giving me overwhelmed me with emotion. Eric has supported me so much during this past year and I will never be able to thank him enough. He really is the unsung hero in this story.
Over the Summer the Maws did all of the things that they were unable to do last Summer and the Bergstroms, as always, over committed themselves. We were unable to get together even one evening with the Maws, but we were thrilled that they were out and about and not tied to a dialysis machine.
On August 25, 2012 my name was added to the donor wall at the Salt Lake Library. The wall was first unveiled last year with over 4,000 names. My mother-in-law was the one that brought its existance to my attention. I filled out the paperwork and had myself added (Rebecca notarized it for free 🙂 ).
I wasn’t sure if what I was doing was self congratulatory, so I was a little hesitant to tell anyone about it. I was even on the fence about the importance of attending the unveiling ceremony. Thankfully, Eric emailed the Maws so that we could be there together. I was happy that my sister Ali and John’s parents; Gwen and John Sr., were also able to be there.
I had imagined that the event would be maybe twelve or so donors like myself in a very small ceremony. In fact there were over 500 people in attendance. The guest speaker (the wife of one of Eric’s co-workers) opened my eyes to what being a “donor” usually means. Her now two year old son was born with a heart defect. At two months they planned to send him home from the hospital so that he could die surrounded by family. The next day they received word that a three year old girl had died in an accident and he would be getting a new heart. This little boy’s life was saved by the ultimate sacrifice by this three year old little girl. This little hero saved or improved nine lives. Her family was in attendance and it was a very emotional experience.
I stood there with Gwen Maw listening to this story and realized very quickly that mine and John’s story is not the norm. As far as I know, I was the only living donor their that day. Most people in attendance were there mourning the loss of a loved one and celebrating their sacrifice. This was by far the most humbling experience of this process. My “sacrifice” will never compare to what these families have gone through. Hold your family little closer tonight and let them know how much you love them. Take this time to make a call to family you don’t see often and send love to them.
Ours is a win/win scenerio. John got a healthy kidney and I received a special place in my heart that will always be filled with light and love. I feel that it is my duty to spread that light and love around. The world can seem like a scary cold place sometimes. Remember that deep down most people have this spark just waiting for their moment to shine.
I like to think that I have made my Mom really proud. I am sending special love and thanks to all of you for making my heart happy. Please do at least one nice thing for someone today and make your heart happy too.

Sorry for the cheese, the occassion seemed to warrent it. Oh and I couldn’t find the spellcheck in this program, so don’t judge.
Peace and Love,

A few legit comments have been tagged as spam, sorry... it's been fixed

So... Blogger's a bit funny sometimes... it tries to help out, you know... but it tagged a few people's posts as spam, omitting them for that reason. It didn't catch any actual spam, either. This, added to the fact that their search feature absolutely will not work, almost has me reaching for another CMS. Unfortunately, WordPress is an absolute filthy, stinking pile of vomit-encrusted fecal insanity, and the other ones aren't worth mentioning. Unless there's another one that is worth mentioning, in which case, please do mention it below, in the comments. Because at some point, Google is going to realize I'm using their product to criticize my government's murderous weaponization of their benefits programs, and I'll lose my Blogger account. It's like any job, no matter how carefully you follow the rules, there's always something they can nail you on. They make sure of it. So at some point it will need to switch to another service. If things really come down to it, of course, I can just make the whole thing in HTML and CSS. After all, that's what I used to do for a living. Before reality caught up with me.

Worship: The Time Appointed / Wellness: 4 Things You Must Know

Worship: For Heaven’s Sake  “The Bible explains itself,” says Pastor Flemons. He then showed how the earthly sanctuary in the time of Moses and Aaron symbolically represented the heavenly sanctuary. He described the sanctuary from the courtyard through the Holy Place to the Most Holy Place, as an introduction to the longest time prophecy in Scripture.

That time prophecy announced the time appointed for the arrival of the Messiah. And at the appointed time, Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea. That time prophecy announced the time for the baptism of Jesus by John. At the appointed time (AD 27), John obeyed and baptized the one whose shoe lachet he was “not worthy to unloose” (John 1:27). That time prophecy announced the death and resurrection of Jesus the Messiah. At the appointed time (AD 31), Jesus the Messiah died on the cross and rose again on the third day as appointed so that sinful mankind might gain victory over sin at last and enter into peaceful eternity with God.

That time prophecy announced the end of probation for the Jewish nation. At the appointed time (AD 34), the Jewish nation rejected mercy for the final time, and probation closed when they stoned Stephen. The time was appointed for the Gospel then officially to go to the Gentiles. Since that time, the Gospel has continued to go into all the world for a witness unto all nations and then then the end would come, as projected by that time prophecy. At the appointed time judgment was set, the books were opened, and the cleansing of the sanctuary began. Thus, the 2300-day time prophecy ended October 22, 1844, just as prophesied in Daniel 7:10 and 8:14.

That “wonderful time prophecy,” says Pastor Flemons, began in 457 BC, when Artexerxes signed the final decree for the temple to be rebuilt in Jerusalem. The 2300 “days” ended October 22, 1844, 2300 years later: a day for a year. This was the appointed time that Jesus would enter into the Most Holy Place to begin judgment, to cleanse the temple by blotting out the forgiven sins of the saints from the heavenly records, just as was symbolically done by the high priest on the day of atonement. Only this “day” of atonement (October 22, 1844) would mark the official beginning of the time of the end.

[For additional details, please read Daniel 9:24-27; Daniel 8:13, 14, 17, 19; 7:10, 13, 14; 1 Timothy 5:24; Numbers 14:34; Ezekiel 4:6; Acts 17:31; Daniel 12:4; and “The Time Appointed” in Path to the Throne of God, by Sarah Elizabeth Peck. (PTG 148 original. PTG 203, 204 new version. PTG 113 online.) Also, please listen to the recording and hear Pastor Flemons sing, “Are You Ready for Jesus to Come?”]

Wellness: For Health’s Sake  Shelem Flemons, a doctor of biblical wellness, discussed four things and why you need to know them. The Bible has prophesied that a time will come such as the world has never known. He quoted a statement from Ellen G. White’s Counsels on Health. It says this:

“As religious aggression subverts the liberties of our nation, those who would stand for freedom of conscience will be placed in unfavorable positions. For their own sake, they should, while they have opportunity, become intelligent in regard to disease, its causes, prevention, and cure. And those who do this will find a field of labor anywhere. There will be suffering ones, plenty of them, who will need help, not only among those of our own faith, but largely among those who know not the truth.” {CH 506.1}

We must know (1) disease is an effort of nature to rid the body of toxins and to reestablish proper balance in the body. We must know (2) that the cause of disease is the violation of the laws of health. We must know (3) how to prevent disease by following the laws of health. And we must know (4) how to cure disease by returning to the laws of health and by using the simple things in nature, while having a degree of faith in God.

“The only hope of better things is in the education of the people in right principles. Let physicians teach the people that restorative power is not in drugs, but in nature. Disease is an effort of nature to free the system from conditions that result from a violation of the laws of health. In case of sickness, the cause should be ascertained. Unhealthful conditions should be changed, wrong habits corrected. Then nature is to be assisted in her effort to expel impurities and to re-establish right conditions in the system.” {MH 127.1}

Worship: Making False gods / Wellness: Proof, Flu Vaccine Does Not Prevent Flu

Worship: For Heaven’s Sake   The second commandment (Exodus 20:4-6) does not sanction bowing down to or worshiping statues and images. Pastor Flemons clarifies that while Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a virgin who was miraculously impregnated with the Son of God by the Holy Ghost, she herself is not to be worshiped. She is not part of the godhead. Because of Mary, Christ is one hundred percent human. And because of the Holy Ghost, Christ is one hundred percent divine. His humanity allows His image to be painted, as any other human, but not for the purposes of worship. To avoid any temptation or confusion on this point, and because most photos are not true to the biblical description of Jesus anyway, it is best to not have a representation of even His image, says Pastor Flemons.

Wellness: For Health’s Sake  Pastor Shelem Flemons, a doctor of biblical wellness, read an article published on the site of ScienceDaily.com. It shows that in 2009, researchers learned that “children who had received the flu vaccine had three times the risk of hospitalization, as compared to children who had not received the vaccine. In asthmatic children, there was a significantly higher risk of hospitalization in subjects who received the TIV, as compared to those who did not.” Still, the official conclusion was that their findings only raised questions and did not implicate that the vaccine caused the hospitalizations. Pastor Flemons agrees with their findings but not with their scientific conclusion and says, “There’s your proof.” What more do you need? People have good reason to question, even refuse, the flu vaccine. Rather, adopt the REFRESHING way lifestyle. The REFRESHING Way lifestyle is the best flu vaccine. It’s God’s plan for wellness.

Psalm 27:13, 14  I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

Hebrews 6:10-12  For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: that ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

Mirror Mirror on the wall....needing to see through others eyes......

I was asked a really interesting question last week by a former HS classmate, who had read my post about the recognition at Twins stadium. He asked me quite directly, why do I need others to tell me how I am doing. It was a much more relevant question than he knew, as that issue has recently caused some major turmoil in a relationship I had greatly valued and pretty much decimated by needing that feedback. Particularly since I couldn't articulate to that person why I needed it.

I have spent a lot of time thinking about John's question and about my answers to him. The most honest answer I can give right now is I don't trust my own perceptions. It's ironic for as much as I now see all I have accomplished and am prouder of myself physically than I have ever been, I am probably at my lowest point in trusting what I see as real as I have ever been. And the result is feeling like I do require a lot more validation than ever before.

Unfortunately I think that need for validation is often mistaken as me not being proud of myself or seeing my own accomplishments. That is not the truth in any way. I know I have done this work. I know I have accomplished things 99% of the public will never do. And I know I did that work. I don't need others to tell me that to feel good about myself. Instead for me right now when others are supportive, when they do compliment me, when they do recognize what I have accomplished it just helps me to say "yes what I am seeing is real, my view is not distorted".

This is going to sound incredibly stupid, but its brutally honest. I feel more and more like a fraud the thinner I get. I feel like I am playing a game with the world and am waiting to be caught. I look in my closet and see what seem like doll sized clothes compared to what I used to wear, and I have a hard time believing they are genuinely mine. I feel at times like the emperor running around thinking he looks great while he is really being laughed at by the world. I look in the mirror and think to myself "wow you look great today" but then immediately question if I am just in denial.

It was kind of ironic that a friend said to me today "I don't recall seeing you as big as you were in the 'former' picture" because I feel the same way. A big part of why I have such a hard time with my own judgement right now, is because I never realized how bad I had gotten. I look at my pictures from a year ago, and while I knew I was physically miserable I never realized how gross I looked to the world (both in size and how I dressed). If it was possible for me to misread that, how do I know what I see now is even accurate? Do I think I look better than I do? Do I think I am doing better than I am with this?

As I said to John, this is all a journey for me. For some people the belief in themselves comes first and then they can accept the compliments of others as valid. For me the path has gone the other way. For me even to believe that others are being sincere in what they are saying to me is a huge accomplishment. I never used to trust any compliments from anyone. I took them as insincere and with a goal. Today I am finally reaching a place where I can accept them, and in most cases believe them. I still question motive from time to time, but at least with the people close to me, I have learned to graciously say thank you and take them in.

I do know I have done all this work. I do know I have a lot to be proud of. I apologize to those around me who don't think I know that. I do. I know how hard this last year has been for me and all it has taken.

But despite that, I am still a work in progress. You can't go from 35 years being the ugly ducking to a swan overnight (which is how the last 8 months feels) without questioning who you have become and your own judgement. I feel many days I am stuck in a dream, and when I ask for support or compliments, I am not asking you tell me I am that swan, I am just asking to verify that the swan I see in the mirror is real. For now I need that!

  1. The body-mind connection is so complex. A freedom gained in one is not often simultaneous in the other. In time you will have both in agreement as to all that you have lost (weight) and gained (self awareness).

Tiredness on Reddit found the place where the coordonates on Ruth Davenport's arm leads. In real life, it's a place North of Washington, near the fictive Twin Peaks. He compared the map with Frank Truman's map, and it fits, revealing that the FBI team and the Twin Peaks team will probably go to the same place soon, "near Jack Rabbits Palace".

See it here:

It's an awesome discovery! I would just like to add that the place, "in real life", where those coordonates leads, is a road with no name, in the woods, in Kettle Falls.Kettle Falls was already mentionned in The Secret History Of Twin Peaks. It's the town that the Twin Peaks Lumberjacks Team fought against in 1968. They loose against the Kettle Falls Team, because of Hank Jennings. The team included Harry Truman, Frank Truman, and Big Ed Hurley.

Kettle Falls is also near the Colville Indian Reserve. In The Secret History of Twin Peaks, Chief Joseph ended his life in a Reserve "north-east of Washington State".

So, will Hawk's heritage have more importance in the next episode? (I mean, more than a coin with Indian Chief on it?)

Work done by Tiredness based on the coordinates on Ruth's arm.

Note that those coordinates may have been faked by Albert to set up Diane.

Little extra: note that the Coordonates are on the 48Th Parallel North, just as Paris, France. The previous night (Part 10), a French Flag was shown in the restaurant when Albert and Constance were falling in love. But, maybe it's because Constance is "the kind of girl to make you wish you spoke a little French"!

Michael Scoggins exhibition "Colonialism" at the Sacred Heart University and University of Puerto Rico.

Today April the 18th. TPP presented Micahel Scoggins solo exhibition "Colonialism" at the Universidad del Sagrado Corazon in Santurce and the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus and had quitea big turn around of students. We visited the respective art departments in campus and the art teachers at the moment were kind enough to let all their students off early of class to visit the trailer.

At Sagrado Corazon, Contemporary Art Appreciation teacher and artist Catherine Matos-Olivo brought down the whole class and spoke about Michael's work in what turned out to be a great insight of his work for all students.

Afterwards we rolled down to the Universidad de Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus which is the oldest and most important University in Puerto rico as it is the State College with different campuses all around the Island. Teachers/artists Nathan Budoff, BrendaVargas, Nestor Millan, Martin Garcia were among the teachers that toured their students to see the exhibition.

Right after finishing the expo at the UPR, We were invited across the street by young businessman and collector Antonio Castro for a free tasting of his home-made organic yogurt, after a small introduction of the company and the products, he personally handed samples of their most popular flavors (Strawberry and Mango) to all sutdents and teachers that attended.

It was a great expereince and great to support local business and work together.

Wandsworth Council has granted planning permission to two major development schemes in London’s biggest regeneration zone, Nine Elms, which will see built almost 3,000 new homes.

The Nine Elms scheme will include replacing the existing 1970’s tower block on the corner of Warnsworth Road with two new 58 and 43-storey buildings, Wandsworth Council confirmed yesterday.

More than 1,000 new homes are currently under construction at the 195 hectares acres site in Nine Elms and another 12, 000 new homes are expected to come through the planning pipeline.

It has been estimated the building delivery programme at Nine Elms could support up to 24, 000 jobs in the building construction industry as well as contributing towards major infrastructure upgrades including the Northern Line Extension.

Wandsworth Council’s planning chairman Cllr Nick Cuff said: “We’re making tremendous progress in Nine Elms. Each new development will create new homes, new open spaces and new job opportunities for local people.

Commenting on the approved New Covent Garden Market scheme to modernise 40 years old market facilities in the area which could provide over 2, 000 new homes, Mr Cuff said: “The modernisation of New Covent Garden Market is designed to safeguard the future of 2,500 jobs and comes with a contribution of around £63 million towards the Northern Line Extension.

“One Nine Elms would see an outdated office block replaced with two glass towers and around half of the site would become a new public square lined with shops, cafes, bars and restaurants.”

Wandsworth and Lambeth Councils said they were securing apprenticeship places and local employment opportunities as a condition of each scheme’s planning consent.

Once the construction process is complete the new Nine Elms will provide an additional 25,000 new permanent jobs for London as well as 16,000 new homes.

Do you welcome the major developments in Nine Elms that will build new homes and create thousands of new jobs?  Share your thoughts by leaving a comment here or raising your voice on our Facebook page.

Three microphone circuits

Three Arduino boards with three microphones, trilateration here I come! ... wait I´m lacking a USB to serial...

Tonight I soldered another microphone, together with the one on the breadboard I now have three in total. Two problems remain:
  1. I need another USB to serial in order to connect them all three to my PC (I can however connect the one on the right to the RPi... Well yesterday I ordered more USB to serials
  2. The new microphone circuit did not get the full 200x amplification. It works but with lower amplification. I've checked the connections using my multimeter, My best guess is that it might just be the electrolytic capacitor that got broken. Unfortunately I do not have a multimeter that can measure caps. :(
Well tomorrow I will replace that cap, desoldering is fun!

PKR to announce which seat Anwar Ibrahim plans to contest

PKR to announce which seat Anwar Ibrahim plans to contest
PHOTO: Reuters

KLANG - Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) said it will announce on Wednesday (Sept 12) which seat Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will be contesting in a by-election to enter Parliament.

Party sources said many issues were taken into consideration before the final decision was made.

The possible seats were discussed within selected groups of loyalists, who were entrusted with the responsibility of crafting an action plan to get PKR president-elect Anwar elected as an MP.

"Some of the seats that were offered belonged to three-term MPs who are division chiefs with strong grassroots support. There were also seats that had incumbents who were young and hardworking," sources said.

They said it was ascertained that the chosen constituency must have voter representation which reflects that Anwar is accepted by the Malays as well as non-Malays.

"So, the ideal constituency for Anwar must have about 60 per cent Malay voters and 40 per cent non-Malay voters," said a source.

Selayang MP William Leong concurred that the constituency for Anwar to contest must be well mixed as he would be representing all races as the nation's incoming prime minister.

"This is also important to us as PKR is a multiracial party and we want to break the practice where a Malay contests in a Malay majority seat, a Chinese in a Chinese majority seat and an Indian in an Indian majority seat," said Leong, who was the first to offer his seat to Anwar.

After much deliberation, the party finally shortlisted the Sungai Petani, Alor Setar and Port Dickson parliamentary seats for Anwar to choose.

It is said that Anwar will be contesting in Port Dickson, with its incumbent MP Danyal Balagopal Abdullah expected to quit to make way for a by-election.

Former naval officer Danyal is new to Port Dickson and has no grassroots support in his constituency or as a PKR elected representative.

When contacted on Monday, Danyal said although he had been supporting PKR since 2008, it was only recently that he officially became a member, meaning that he is fairly unknown within the PKR fold.

He had said that contesting in Port Dickson had also been an 11th hour decision.

"I was actually asked to contest in Tambun (Perak) at first," said Danyal, 68, who is also a former vice-president of the Olympic Council of Malaysia.

He was roped in to contest in Port Dickson 24 hours before nomination day to replace fellow PKR member Rosman Jonet, who was penalised by the Election Commission for not submitting a report on his spending when he contested the Linggi state seat in 2013.

When contacted, Alor Setar MP Chan Ming Kai said various factors had to be taken into consideration before deciding where Anwar should contest.

"It must first be ensured that the outcome and voter turnout will be good because this will directly impact the morale of PKR members," said Chan.

He said the seat must also be fairly mixed because Anwar is a leader for all races.

"The voter turnout must also be better than the recent turnout in the Selangor by-elections," said Chan, adding that Negeri Sembilan had the potential to become a PKR stronghold like Selangor.

Universiti Sains Malaysia political analyst Sivamurugan Pandian agreed, saying that the seat for Anwar to contest as prime minister-designate should represent the national ethnic demography.

"Port Dickson seems to have the right racial composition, but the party must explain why the constituency was selected when making the announcement," said Dr Sivamurugan.

This Is It!!!!!

So my friend and I decided to to go see This Is It, the film/documentary about Michael Jackson. If you're a fan of Michael Jackson, the Traveling Hillbilly recommends seeing the film. I know there is a lot of controversy surrounding Michael Jackson, but no matter what you think of him, you have to admit, he's an amazingly talented performer! He truly was an talented singer, dancer, performer.

However, we spent over $50 for two people to see a movie! That's simply outrageous, even for Los Angeles! It was $11 a ticket for the movie, a matinee at that! Another $19 for a couple of sodas and a popcorn and then $10 each for parking. Now granted the parking would have only been $5 each if we had not spent extra time to go have a drink after, but either way it's still a very expensive movie for an afternoon matinee!

However, the Traveling Hillbilly does recommend going to Boca, the restaurant/club that's part of the Conga Room. The staff is friendly, the cocktails selection is good and the food is delicious!

All in all, a fun way to spend a Saturday, despite the expense.

Danger, Traveling Hillbilly, Danger

Things I learned playing racquetball (by myself) this morning:

1 - Getting smacked with the ball in the face, on the leg, the thigh, or ANYWHERE for that matter, really hurts.

2 - I so need to work on my backhand.

3 - That "swoosh" you hear when you're gunning to smash the ball and completely miss, is still very embarrassing, even when there's no one else to see it!

4 - Make sure your shoelaces are tied, tightly!

5 - It's worse than running on old arthritic knees.

6 - You really can kick your own ass.

Regarding number 6 - Is it more embarrassing to kick your own ass? Or to have your ass kicked by someone else? Let me know what you think.

Raquetball tomorrow morning anyone?

The Traveling Hillbilly Cleans Up the Beach

The Traveling Hillbilly is proud to work at a company that encourages all its employees to take the day off work and do volunteer work around the city.

Several of us decided to volunteer with the Surfrider Foundation and clean up the beach. We arrived at 10am, ready to go. I have to say it was an eye opening experience. I expected to see a lot of cigarette butts, which we did, but I can not believe how many thousands of tiny little pieces of Styrofoam are scattered all over the beach. Even with the large group we had cleaning up, I don’t think we put a dent in the massive amount of Styrofoam. It was everywhere. I will never use Styrofoam cups or coolers again. For those of you who smoke cigarettes, if you can’t bring yourself to actually stop smoking, can’t you take the extra 10 steps to toss the butts in the trash can? Is that really asking that much? I just can not believe how much random trash is one the beach. There were not a ton of huge items, like cans and bottles, but there were so many little things, like pieces of plastic, labels from bottles, torn pieces of plastic bags, just a whole array of odd things.

Where does it all come from?

It is Shabbat afternoon, we managed to prepare lunch for friends Ammi and Anat from Haifa as well as Ronne and Bernard who are here with the CCAR.   It's no easy feat to prepare lunch in a kitchen the size of a table, but we managed to pull it off.  It's good soup weather!  Jerusalem is finally getting some of the rain it needs so badly.  It's windy and cold and Israelis are thrilled and grateful for every raindrop; I discovered that my winter coat is not at all rainproof.  Last night, we walked in the pouring rain to the Jerusalem hotel to join a group of rabbis on a bus to Shabbat services in Mevasseret Tziyon.  We were two cantors among several hundred rabbis who were divided up and hosted by different congregations around the country.  The service was pleasant and the congregational participation was full-voice, but the music, except for one or two pieces, was shopworn and identical to Kol Haneshama and Or Hadash.  There's a lot of Debbie Friedman liturgy here and it seems that the Israeli reform movement is badly in need of some new creativity.  After services we were warmly hosted at the home of Shaul and Tania Feinberg, where we enjoyed a traditional Shabbat dinner with several of Shaul's rabbinic colleagues.
Last week we were delighted to have a few days "on the coast."  Laura, Roy and I joined Henry and Laurie in Herzliyah--truly another world!  After living in a kosher apartment in very kosher Jerusalem, it was a novelty to find ourselves in restaurants where they serve "shrimps" and hamburgers with bacon.  Herzliyah was our base for a day of touring and "hiking" with Laura, Henry and Laurie.   Our guide, Yuval, did the best he could working around the weather.  We did manage to do some great eating.  Our most challenging hike was Arbel, a mountain up in the Galilee.  The pictures say it all...
