Mexican election: landslide for the left
In the Mexican presidential election held on July 1, the left-wing candidate, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, known by his initials AMLO, won a commanding 53.2% of the vote, with Ricardo Anaya, who led a right-left coalition, in a very distant second with 22.3%. The candidate of the current governing Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), José Antonio Meade, was third with just 16.4%.
AMLO's vote share was the highest in a Mexican presidential election since 1982, and he is the first to win an absolute majority of the popular vote since 1988. The PRI was dominant in Mexican elections during the twentieth century before they were defeated by Vicente Fox of the conservative National Action Party (PAN) in 2000.
Prior to the election, coalitions were formed that did not necessarily include like-minded parties. AMLO's coalition included his own MORENA party and the Labor Party, but also the evangelical Social Encounter Party. Anaya's coalition included his own PAN, but also the left-wing Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) and Citizens' Movement.
Three hundred of the 500 members of the lower house were elected by first-past-the-post, and the remainder by proportional representation. 96 of the 128 senators were elected in 32 three-member electorates based on the states; in these electorates, the winning party won two seats, and the runner-up one. The remaining 32 senators were elected by proportional representation.
In the Senate, AMLO's coalition won 43.7% of the vote and 70 of the 128 seats, while Anaya's coalition won 27.6% of the vote and 38 seats, and the coalition led by the PRI won 22.6% of the vote and 20 seats. In the lower house, similar vote shares gave AMLO's coalition 312 of the 500 seats, Anaya's coalition 128 seats and the PRI coalition just 60 seats.
MORENA won a total of 58 of the 128 senators, and 193 of the 500 lower house members. Labor won seven senators and 61 in the lower house. Combined, MORENA and Labor won 65 of the 128 senators, and 254 of the 500 lower house seats. As a result, these two parties alone will have majorities in both chambers of the legislature, and AMLO will not need votes from the Social Encounter Party.
The left's majority in the Mexican legislature is further bolstered by the PRD and Citizens' Movement, which were formerly led by AMLO. These two parties won a combined 16 senate seats and 49 lower house seats.
The president and the Senate have six-year terms, while the lower house has a three-year term.

Thanks for the coverage which doesn't count for very much in Oz. I have a more than passing interest in Mexican politics in that my daughter-in-law lives in the city of Monterrey. She did not vote for AMLO though is nominally a voter on the left. She does not think AMLO will make any difference to the terrible state of drug/guns/corruption in Mexico and the new President's goal to bring the Pope to help out as well as have dialogue with the drug cartels does not encourage her at all

Kenyan fabricator of passenger vehicle bodies Labh Singh Harnam Singh (LSHS) has been hired to build high-capacity buses for Tanzania government's Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) services as Nairobi prepares to import the same from South Africa next month.
LSHS managing director Daniel Maundu said the firm was working on the first order after the Tanzania government contracted Isuzu Motors to build the first 80-person capacity buses for use under the BRT programme.
"Kenya is planning to import the high capacity buses yet Tanzania, which initially imported buses from China, has turned to us to use our 70-year plus experience to build them the buses," said Mr Maundu who doubles as the Kenya Bus Body Builders Association chairman.
He said Kenya's plan to import fully built units negated the Jubilee government's Big Four Agenda, especially the manufacturing pillar, where the government pledged to provide incentives to support local companies in a bid to generate jobs, revenue and hence higher taxes.
Kenya will pay Ksh500 million ($4.9 million) to import 30 buses, effectively exporting jobs to the more advanced economy.
"Our work benefits many companies that manufacture various products from batteries to springs, gaskets, lubricants, iron bars and sheets among other items.
"It is a vibrant supply chain that if activated could directly benefit 6,000 people employed across the industries," he said.
Mr Maundu observed that most auto-assemblers and body builders were cutting staff due to reduced business as a way of easing operational costs.
"We have capacity to meet any demand within Kenya and have built adequate factories and manpower over the past decades. Kenya has three motor vehicle assemblers and 12 body builders and the plan to import fully built buses will deny us the much-needed business especially after a tough 2017," he said.
Mr Maundu said firms have already built 104 capacity buses, currently being piloted on Kenyan roads, and had in the past been engaged in building double decker buses that traverse local roads.
LSHS has been serving East African markets since 1948 when it started operations and currently employs 300 staff.
Mr Maundu said awarding such a contract to local companies could see new jobs advertised with automotive engineers and body builders getting demand for new trainees.
Assemblers in Kenya include Mombasa's Associated Vehicle Assemblers, Thika-based Kenya Vehicle Manufacturers and at Isuzu Motors in Nairobi.

Comments Off on The Handmaid's Tale Finale Recap Season 5, Episode 10: Shocking Death Changes Everything
There are several pivotal moments that leave virtually the entire cast in different places and situations than they started the hour — most of them not great!
As always, "The Handmaid's Tale" likes to leave things on a massive cliffhanger so you don't know what's coming next. Ahead of its final season, the Hulu hit left fans with half a dozen.
Basically, everything we've come to know and expect about the current state of this dystopic world began to change and by the end of this final hour of the penultimate season, no one was safe.

The change has been building all season long, in particular with how Canada and Canadians have been changing and reacting to the presence of all these American refugees and this bizarre new country to the south.
We've watched the growing resentment to these refugees echoing American resentment toward refugees from its own southern border, culminating in outright violence in the last episode as June (Elisabeth Moss) and a little girl were nearly shot to death.
That violence only continued to escalate as it was quickly becoming clear that it wasn't safe for any Americans in Canada anymore — and particularly June Osborne.
Another key moment at the end of Episode 9 was when the commanders told Joseph (Bradley Whitford) that maybe it was time to do something about this june Osborne problem. Was the shooting targeted at her, or just anti-American resentment?
And what about the even more heinous attack that set things spiraling quickly out of control in this episode? That appeared specifically targeted to June, but does that mean Gilead was behind it? There is never offered any clarity on that question, but it almost doesn't matter. The results were the same, complete and total chaos.
Let's take a look at what happened to each of the principal characters in this shocking finale so we can marinate on all these open wounds until the not-yet-scheduled Season 6 drops sometime in the future to wrap it all up — at least until sequel series "The Testaments" picks up the narrative.

June & Luke
Preparing for another upcoming memorial, June bought a bulletproof vest to better protect herself. Unfortunately, the next danger to fly at her was far bigger than a bullet. We do find ourselves wondering why she chose to stay in the street.
It all went down after Mark (Sam Jaeger) came and told them that they'd apprehended the shooting from the previous episode. She walked Mark out to his car to say goodbye and in a panning shot around her noticed that so many of her refugee neighbors were packing to leave.
Then, she noticed a large pickup truck firing up and heading her way. Again, why she stayed in the street is a mystery, but the trick totally slammed into her, knocking her to the ground. But it didn't stop there.
The driver proceeded to drive right over her, crushing her arm beneath one of its wheels. Then, as she was dazed and confused, the driver actually started backing up to run her face over with the tires. Thankfully for June, that's when Luke (O-T Fagbenle) showed up, pulling the driver out and beating him unconscious.
Yes, just like the shooter, this was a middle-aged white man with a gun. Political statement about the growing problem of these angry white men? Who knows at this point, because we don't know if this was general anti-American sentiment or a targeted attack through Gilead.

What we do know is that things went from bad to worse. Luke gave his statement, June was patched up and sent home, but then the driver died. That lands on Luke, an American refugee killing a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil. Do the details even matter?
Remembering how they waited too long to leave America before Gilead rose, and seeing the rising problems in Canada, June decided they needed to leave right now. Mark showed up in time to tell them not to go to the airport, as authorities are already looking for Mark.
Instead, he sends them to a train going west to Vancouver. From there, they can catch a boat to Hawaii, one of the last two American territories, along with Alaska. Only when they arrive, it becomes clear they're looking for Luke here, too.
In a heartbreaking scene, Luke convinces June to go ahead of him and then calls her moments before giving himself up, telling her to get on the train. He knew they'd never let her leave if they were together. Now, he'll either get a trial, or execution — it depends on the state of Canada, we suppose.
As for June, she found herself along with Nichole heading on "an adventure," as she told her daughter. She also found herself completely alone again, just as she'd started her fight. She told Luke that it was about staying alive, but untethered and on the run, she has no idea even what the fight looks like right now.
Janine & Lydia
While June is trying to figure out what her future looks like, Janine (Madeline Brewer) seems to have started to figure out hers, and it's a familiar template. After being absent for a bit, we check back in on the long-suffering Handmaid as she continues to work at the Red Center under a somewhat gentler Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd).
When Lydia is advised that the protecting of Janine is starting to get noticed, she realizes she can't keep the fertile Handmaid unposted any longer, but she comes up with a possible solution that would be for the best.
Joseph is trying to be a different kind of Commander and evolve Gilead. He's just agreed to marry Naomi (Ever Carradine), the "mother" of Janine's child, Angela. A posting at the Lawrence household would allow Janine to see her daughter, and Joseph to have the complete Gilead picture.
All seemed to be going well, with Naomi laying down a strict list of rules and revealing that Angela is away for this "trial period" summer. It looked as if Janine was going to go along to get along … at least, until Naomi called her "Ofjoseph," the Handmaid moniker of naming them after their Commander.
"That's not my name," Janine said fiercely, looking directly into Naomi's eyes — she had been demure and looking down so long, that one-eyed look was piercing. Naomi had suggested they could even be friendly, but Janine was ready for some truth.
"We're not friends," Janine practically spat at her. "I think that you are one of the worst people that I have ever known. I am not your friend. I hate you, Naomi. How can you not know that?"
We never see Naomi again, but the next time we see Janine, she's back at the Red Center getting a dressing down from Aunt Lydia. But, as with Naomi, Janine's eyes aren't down. She looks directly at Lydia and tells her she won't be debasing herself or begging for anything.

At that moment, the Eyes arrive to take Janine away, much to Lydia's horror. She is completely impotent to do anything to stop them, even getting roughly pushed to the ground. She threatened to call Commander Lawrence, but the Eyes said he ordered this.
Our last shot of Janine is her consoling a Martha in the truck with her, just as June used to do.
She'd gotten word at the Lawrence household from a Martha (possibly this same one) that June had been hit by that truck. "They never let anyone get away," the woman said, and the exchange seemed to resonate and empower Janine.
The template she's following in these final scenes is June's spitfire defiance in the face of Gilead authority balanced with compassion for the fellow women suffering alongside her. Her own suffering is nothing — and certainly Janine has already endured so much.
It's an interesting arc for Janine, and one that could bear wonderful fruit within Gilead. Yes, her fate looks dire right now, but if she's got June's resolve, she may yet rise up and become as big a thorn in Gilead as her predecessor.
Our last shot of Lydia is her picking herself up after Janine is taken away with a look of disgust and rage on her face. Lydia still buys into the system, but she's been trying a gentler approach with the girls.
She remains fiercely loyal to them and we're not so sure she's on board with senseless cruelty for the sake of patriarchal power trips.
It doesn't help that she's reminded at every turn that she, too, is a woman and therefore almost beneath consideration. Could Lydia, too, be ready to become a bigger problem for Gilead on behalf of her girls?

Nick & Rose
After rejecting June outright in the penultimate episode, Nick (Max Minghella) realized that he just can't quit her. When he gets word of the attack this week, he completely changes his mind, agreeing to a deal with Mark in order to come see her.
He visits an unconscious June in the hospital and even signs the verbal agreement he and Mark made. It's not made clear what it is, but it's an ongoing arrangement, as Mark said he looks forward to working with him.
Clearly, though, seeing June left Nick a little unraveled, as he made his way to Joseph's house on the day of his wedding and hit him right across the face. Joseph said it wasn't his decision, indicating that there is a hit out on June.
The next time we see Nick, he's in a prison, presumably by Joseph's doing. We don't see much of Joseph this episode, but the moments we do get he seemed irritated. Has he turned completely evil, arresting Janine and Nick for slighting his wife and assaulting him?
Nick's wife Rose (Carey Cox) called him out for not being able to get over June, and Nick admitted that he can't seem to let her go. When Rose said that she doesn't want to be with him anymore, he told her, "You can't leave."
Was this a plea to his wife, or just a statement of fact that she doesn't have that kind of autonomy as a woman in Gilead? Either way, Nick has basically blown up his life in Gilead for love of June. Will he be stripped of position? Can he honor his arrangement with Mark? Will he try to escape and find June?

Joseph & Naomi
Joseph and Naomi were more than likely wed in this episode, as we got fleeting glimpses of the big day through Janine and Nick's involvement at the Lawrence household. But it's certain not to be a happy marriage.
Naomi was attempting to connect with Janine, even after dressing her down about Angela, because she is desperately lonely and sad after Joseph and Nick had her husband killed in front of her. Now, she's married to one of them.
Joseph remains an enigma himself. Did he really have Janine arrested, and if so, where is he sending her? Did he have Nick arrested, and if so, what are his intentions there? Joseph had said he wants to change Gilead from the inside, but he's taken some pretty dark steps this week.
After June rejected his attempt to convince her to move to New Bethlehem, he seems nonplussed that the other commanders appear to be trying to have her killed. He seems to want Gilead respected across the globe, but is he willing to sink back into its full depravity?
Certainly, arresting people for personal slights is pretty heinous and totalitarian. All props to Bradley Whitford for keeping Joseph as enigmatic now as he was when he first met him. Of all the characters on the show, his motives always remain the most mysterious.

Moira & Rita
It was Rita (Amanda Brugel) who came to the house and told the family that the truck driver had died and the police would likely be working up a warrant for Luke. When it was decided that June and Luke would flee, that left Moira (Samira Wiley) alone in that house.
We saw already the mass exodus of refugees, and yet we know that Moira, Rita and even Sylvia (Clea Duvall) are likely still in the neighborhood. With Canada becoming less hospitable, where do they go?
We get that the situation with June and Luke was an emergency, but Mark and the U.S. government know that it's becoming untenable to keep refugees in Canada. Will they be ushered onto another train heading West?
Moira hasn't had as much to do in recent seasons, but she's been a tight part of June's life for many, many years. Then, after what they endured together in Gilead … that's not a relationship you cast aside, so we can't imagine we're done with Moira's story.
More than likely, she'll be involved in Luke's trial in some way, but that is likely only to increase the likelihood that neither of them are welcome in Canada, nor are any other Americans. Will Gilead ideals take root more firmly? Canada is a powder keg, and there are a lot of key people still there.
One of those people is Mark himself, who seems to hold a pretty key position in this portion of Canada as a representative of the United States. Is the U.S. considering a full pullout of all refugees in Canada? Is he working with the Canadian government to try and avoid a GIlead-like revolution?
How safe is Mark himself, as such a prominent U.S. figure? Like Moira, we can see him taking part in Luke's trial, but we also fear it may be more of a sham trial to pacify Canadian citizens and justify the forced removal of all American refugees from Canadian soil.
Melanie Martin Says She Was Planning 'More Children' With Aaron Carter Before His Death
Not seen at all through the bulk of this episode, they actually crafted a pretty good surprise at the end when we cut back to June on the train. Hearing another baby crying, she made her way to the back and came face-to-face with Serena (Yvonne Strahovski) and her baby.
June had just told Luke she didn't want to be alone, but is this what she meant? We know she's beyond that point where she wants to kill Serena, and Serena seemed to be interested in actually trying to be friends after June saved her life in the barn.
Obviously, it's not as simple as all of that. This is easily the most complicated relationship in the entire show. Both women have been to the dark side and back — well, we're not sure Serena ever fully came back from it, but she's definitely gone darker.
Serena now has some understanding of the life that June lived in Gilead, having experienced a shortened version of it since leaving U.S. custody in Canada. Now, they're two women all alone — save for one another — heading into unknown territory.
They're both powerful figures in their own right. Is it possible that the fear of the unknown and facing it alone will be enough for them to consider working together? Has Serena fallen so far as to consider helping to free Hannah, or even try to take down Gilead?
Is it weird that we're kind of happy to see them together because June so didn't want to have to do this alone again. Sure, she'd probably choose almost anyone other than Serena, but it's someone.

If You Can't Pray Anything Nice
By Rev. J.C. Austin
When I first took the bus to Bethlehem from New York City during the interview process for this church, I immediately recognized the name given to the section of Route 33 between Route 22 and I-78, which is designated the "General Anthony McAuliffe 101st Airborne Memorial Highway." Now, if you're not a World War II history nerd like I am, McAuliffe was the acting commander of the 101st Airborne Division during the Siege of Bastogne in World War II, part of the larger Battle of the Bulge that took place in late 1944 where Belgium, France, and Luxembourg come together.
When I saw the sign, I looked him up to see if he was from Bethlehem, but he never spent any time in the Lehigh Valley that I could find. It wasn't until much later that I found out that McAuliffe's deputy at the siege lived in Bethlehem Township, and he led the effort to get the Route 33 extension named after McAuliffe simply to honor him for his courageous leadership in that pivotal moment in the war.
And that leadership was remarkable. When the Germans launched their surprise attack that began the Battle of the Bulge, the actual division commander was at a conference in the United States, and command fell to McAuliffe for one of the most brutal and bloody battles in the history of the U.S. Army. Cut off on all sides by the German Army, the 101st Airborne fought for days without adequate food, shelter, or supplies in the bitterly cold winter snow, holding off an enemy that was far larger and better equipped.
After days of this, the German commander sent an eloquent but menacing message demanding that the 101st offer their honorable surrender to the Germans or face "total annihilation." There are a few different recollections of exactly what happened next, but they all agree on that the general responded in disgust by saying "nuts!", as in "nuts to that!" A pretty tame response, under the circumstances, but apparently, McAuliffe never used profanity on principle, so that was about as foul-mouthed as he ever got.
And that's what ended up being the official response to that demand: in contrast to the German commander's lengthy and flowery demand for surrender, the American message simply read: "To the German commander, from the American commander: NUTS!" And the 101st then held off the enemy for four more days until reinforcements finally arrived, and the German army went on the defensive for the rest of the war.
As epic warrior quotes go, "NUTS!" is not impressive or intimidating in the way other famous retorts to an enemy are. When King Leonidas of Sparta was vastly outnumbered by a Persian army at the Battle of Thermopylae, the Persians demanded that he lay down his weapons. He responded simply: "Come and take them." When John Paul Jones' Revolutionary War flagship was on fire and sinking, his flag shot to pieces in the battle, the British commander asked if he had struck his colors in surrender. Jones replied, "I have not yet begun to fight!"
But "NUTS!" is always on lists of those kinds of quotes precisely because it is so succinct and unexpectedly wholesome, but still communicates bold contempt for the enemy even when it seems like the enemy clearly has the upper hand. "Come and take them," "I have not yet begun to fight," and "NUTS!" are all a quick and utter rejection of any capitulation or concession to the enemy. They all declare: you may think you're winning, but I will not stop, I will never stop, until I have defeated you, my enemy.
These quotes, and others like them, are famous because they are the epitome of how we are conditioned to respond to our enemies: with courage and tenacity, without compromise or condition. George Patton, the U.S. general who led the reinforcements that arrived at the Siege of Bastogne, once said: "May God have mercy on my enemies, because I won't." An enemy is not simply an opponent. Candidates in political races usually refuse to mention the name of the other candidate so they don't give them any publicity; they simply call them "my opponent."
But even given how toxic our politics can get sometimes, it is a rare candidate who describes their opponent as an "enemy," and when they have, there has been a great outcry against them. That's because an enemy is not simply someone with whom you compete or disagree, however vigorous the competition or however important the topic of disagreement.
No, an enemy is someone of ill-will towards you or those whom you love that wants to act on that will; someone who intends to do harm or has already been doing so. An enemy is a direct threat to you personally or to those whom you love, and so you cannot simply disagree with them the way you can with an opponent. You compete with an opponent and try to beat them; but you fight with an enemy and try to eliminate them.
That's why this part of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount is one of his all-time least popular teachings. "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy," he begins. And the crowd must have nodded like, "yes, of course, we know that; you can go to the next thing." Which he does, but the next thing is not what they expected or wanted to hear: "But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be children of your father in heaven."
He is saying that we should love those who want to do harm specifically to us rather than respond the way everyone knows you treat enemies: without mercy. And just to rub it in, he goes further and says we should pray for those who persecute us. By doing these two things, he says, we may be children of God; and in saying so, he at least implies that if we do not do those two things, we can't be children of God.
No wonder nobody likes this passage. In fact, here's a long history of Christians responding to this and many of the teachings in the Sermon on the Mount like the friend of someone who is making outrageous demands or saying offensive things: "don't worry," they whisper, patting our arms reassuringly as phrases like "love your enemies" and "pray for those who persecute you" assault our eardrums; "don't worry, he doesn't really mean that. He's just really passionate, you know, and he gets carried away sometimes.
Obviously nobody could really do those things in real life. It's more like a goal, really. And wouldn't it be nice if the world really worked that way?" But the difficult truth is that there is zero reason to think that Jesus means anything other than exactly what he is saying. He's not talking metaphorically or allegorically. He's not using any of the rhetorical figures of speech that indicate exaggeration to make a point.
He simply says, I know you've heard you can love your neighbor but hate your enemy; but I'm telling you, you have to love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you, too, if you want to be considered a true child of God. Not a lot of ambiguity there, and he clearly means it.
What's not clear is what exactly he means for us to do. Jesus doesn't tell how we have to love our enemies and pray for them, he just tells us to do it. And that has created no small amount of problems in trying to respond faithfully to this command, because we tend to project our own assumptions about both love and prayer onto his instructions, both of which are very different from how someone in the first century Near East would have meant or heard them.
Now if you've spent much time in Christian worship at all, you probably have heard that Greek has specific words for different aspects of love, and that the word agape means a selfless dedication to acting for the well-being of another or others. That's the kind of love Jesus calls on us to have for God, for one another, for our neighbors, and yes, for our enemies. But even if we know that, we often still get tripped up on our cultural association with love as primarily defined by emotion. Which causes us huge problems when we get to this teaching about loving our enemies, because it sounds to us like Jesus is saying we should feel love for them even though they're our enemy. But Jesus never suggests anything of the kind.
When Jesus says we are to love our enemies, he doesn't mean we have to feel any personal affection or even empathy for them. In fact, what we feel for them is irrelevant; it's what we do (or don't do) that matters, because love is an action, not an emotion. And love certainly doesn't rule out conflict or resistance. If you find out a white supremacist is plotting a mass shooting in a Black church, the loving thing to do for both the church members and the white supremacist is to stop the intended shooter before they can commit such a heinous crime.
Jesus himself was frequently in conflict with his enemies; he often criticized their teachings and actions, sometimes harshly, and he acted himself in ways that were in direct resistance to their desires and goals, which made them very angry, angry enough to eventually plot to kill him. Yet, by definition, Jesus didn't see any of that as violating his teaching to love your enemies.
That's because loving someone is not the same thing as being nice to them. Sometimes the most loving thing we can do is to not be nice. A devotion to being nice can be a way of avoiding conflict or resistance that needs to happen with someone for their own good. There is a common moralism that parents tell their children: "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." But the problem with that saying is that it seems to assume that the alternative to saying something nice is to say something cruel or hurtful. And that, quite simply, is wrong.
Sometimes the alternative to saying something nice is saying something loving, and sometimes that means confronting someone and telling them they need to change what they're doing because it is cruel, or unjust, or hurtful to themselves or others. In Christian terms, this kind of thing is inviting someone to repentance, to changing direction because the way they're going is in opposition to God's will. And people rarely experience repentance as something nice; but it is always something that is loving, because it is realigning your heart and spirit with God, and God is love, as the first letter of John puts it.
Similarly, Jesus would never suggest, "if you can't pray anything nice, don't pray anything at all" when we are praying for our enemies, for those who persecute us. Just a few verses after this passage in the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us how we are to pray in general with the Lord's Prayer. And one of the first requests in the Lord's Prayer is, "thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." That helps us understand what it means to pray for our enemies; for our enemies, mind you, not about or against them.
But praying for them doesn't mean praying for them to succeed in what they're doing, or even for them to thrive despite what they're doing. "If you can't pray anything nice about your enemies," Jesus would have said, "you can still pray that they will turn away from being your enemies." Sometimes the best we can do is not to pray against them, and to pray instead for them to repent from the wrong they are doing and to align themselves with the will of God and the nature of the kingdom of heaven.
That is still praying for them; that is still loving them, because it is always loving to pray for someone's will and actions to align with the will and work of God. As long as we mean it, that is; as long as we don't really mean we are praying for someone's will and actions to align with our own instead. That is always the temptation, of course. Which is why it's probably best to always pray for ourselves when we pray for our enemies.
Because it's so easy, when we have an enemy, to feel justified in becoming one ourselves, to intend to do our enemies harm and look for opportunities to do so, even when we are praying to God, to put our will ahead of God's, to seek vengeance and victory instead of justice and peace. Because the first step to eliminating an enemy in God's kingdom is not to become one ourselves.
And if we pray to God to help us do that, we can pray for our enemies to be transformed rather than destroyed, which means we are really praying for God to eliminate two enemies instead of just one: we are praying that we don't become an enemy, and that our enemy doesn't stay one, because both of our wills and actions are aligned with God's.
Now, it's true: that's not how the world actually works. But that's also the whole point. Jesus didn't come to maintain the world or work within its confines; he came to save the world, to transform it, to establish God's reign fully over the world, so that God's will is truly done on earth as it is in heaven. May it be so for the world, for our enemies, and for us.

'House' Rerun Wins Tuesday Night
You know it's a slow weeknight when a rerun is the highest-rated program on television.
On Tuesday, a repeat of Fox's "House" pulled a 4.6 rating among adults 18 to 49, easily besting everything else on the broadcast networks and winning the night for the network. Its lead-in, "Standoff," once again ranked fourth in the 8 p.m. hour (2.2), according to Nielsen Media Research national ratings.
ABC was second with the special "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" (4.8). Its freshman comedy block in the 9 p.m. hour, however, fared poorly. "Big Day" (2.3) was down 18 percent from its premiere, and "Help Me Help You" isn't helping anybody, matching its lowest rating of the season (1.7).
NBC was third, with an on-par "Friday Night Lights" (2.4) and two "Law & Order" reruns.
CBS came in fourth with two procedural reruns, followed by its annual "Victoria's Secret Fashion Show" (2.8), but still turned in its lowest delivery ever.
The CW's "Gilmore Girls" was down slightly week to week (2.1).

The Valley of Kings and Dreams
adminApril 29,2009
"I grew up in the inner city of South Central <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Los Angeles in the 80's and 90's, " said authorTommy Jones. "It was tough for many of my friends to break free of the ways of the streets....So many children will be lost because they don't understand where they came from." <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
It was this experience, coupled with concerns about Jones's own nieces and nephews that prompted the advertising executive to write NuBiAh, a new interactive children's book designed to inspire African American children through stories that focus on their heritage, something that Jones is passionate about conveying to the black youth.
"When it comes to teaching quality lessons, we miss a lot of that in the public school system," Jones said. We had nothing [at my school] that taught us about African Americans.
Every black history month I looked for positive programming except Roots. I love Roots [but] Is this it for us? As African Americans is that it? Weren't there great kingdoms where black kings and queens ruled prominent dynasties before slavery?"
These questions were answered for Jones during his college experience at the historically Black Morehouse College, a place he credits with informing him about his culture and background
"We were leaders of the world for a long time," Jones said. We are a great people from a great land, descendants of great Kings and Queens."
By providing this knowledge Jones aims to increase the self esteem and self worth of young African Americans and to ultimately counter troublingly high statistics of incarceration, unemployment and low levels of college graduation within the African-American community.
"The common problem I see with children within the inner city is the same I experienced when I was growing up...the same problems exist in every black community."
Jones said. "The youth have a general lack of self worth, low self esteem, lack of confidence and low motivation..this often leads to a lifestyle of destruction and lower moral standards."
The bedtime story format of the book was a conscious decision made by Jones to ensure active participation from parents. According to Jones, empowerment starts at home but it is up to the community to ensure it is sustained.
"It is believed in many African villages that it takes a village to raise a child," Jones stated. "Now more than ever we must reach the youth in highly creative ways that they appreciate."
The title "NuBiAh" , comes from the name of the ancient land Nubia, home to one of Africa's earliest black civilizations. The book features information on character,a collection of bedtime stories and illustrations of each of the five characters.
A recurring theme throughout the book is "Listen to the Drum," meaning follow your heart.
"Like the great Kings and Queens, develop a solid value system," Jones explained. "Develop a strong code of ethics, develop a solid moral compass and high respect for mankind and you will be on your way to achieving your dreams."
All the characters in the book are based on real people, Jones said this was the most difficult part of the creative process. " There were numerous schedule conflicts that delayed production time," Jones commented.
"I wanted to make sure that all of the information was 100% accurate..so that when parents read the bedtime stories, they can be assured that their children are learning real values from real people."
So far Jones said NuBiAh is selling well, a portion of all net proceeds go to the Boys and Girls Clubs of America and as a result of the positive response Jones has plans to release similar themed books, as well as a musical CD and a stage play.
"NuBiAh is about understanding your inner greatness," Jones said. "When we know our history and the rich heritage we come from, we can focus on how we are going to make a difference in society."
NuBiAh is available on Amazon.com (ISBN#9 780615 270364)

We love to feature women in our Journal who inspire us in one way or another and Lori shines in every single aspect. Though we admire her for a million reasons, what stands out most in Lori is her vivacious, infectious love for life. Even when she is drowning in orders (the number of cookies she bakes a week is unimaginable), she somehow manages to take the time to smell the roses. Being with her for an afternoon is like hitting a reset button on your life. She has a way of putting everything into perspective, and of opening your eyes to the small things that make every day so beautiful.
Growing up in Ojai, CA, Lori has been steeped in the beauty of the natural world since childhood. Her early path led her to college on a Division I tennis scholarship, followed by a spell in New York City and eventually to the sweetest back house on the most insanely beautiful property in Montecito, CA (think Great Gatsby…) where she now spends her days baking and cooking, surrounded by the very landscape that inspires her artistic and unique approach to her work. Her work ethic is that of a true dedicated athlete - she challenges herself daily and rises to the occasion on large orders, multiple events a week, the list goes on.
Through her cooking and baking, her creative eye shines bright. From finding the most sparkly sugar to sprinkle on her pressed flower cookies (for which she is best known), to discovering the amazing purple rice that turns pink when a lemon is squeezed on top, or hand drawing each and every one of her portrait cookies, it is Lori's detailed care about the small things make everything she touches so perfectly special. .
For KK's baby shower, welcoming Prairie into our lives, Lori worked her magic and made a beautiful rendition of KK's favorite - Key Lime Pie - a recipe which she has graciously shared below. We are so fortunate to have Lori as part of our community, and it has been an honor to watch her grow as a business owner and baking boss. We are all beyond excited for her future, and are especially looking forward to her first cookbook, which is in the works now! We hope you enjoy photos from our magical afternoon in Montecito, filled with cookie scraps and flower collecting, and we urge you all to try making this perfect Key Lime Pie this summer (trust us, you'll fall in love).
First melt butter or coconut oil or both, set aside to cool. Process your graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix with brown sugar, salt and then pour your melted butter / coconut oil mixture. Pat this into a 10" pan (or 9" glass pyrex will work as well) and then put in freezer for 20 min. Preheat oven to 350 and bake tart at 350 for 10-12 mins. Take out of oven and let cool completely.
In the meantime, make the custard-- whisk together the following: 1 cup homemade sweetened condensed milk (OR you can also use 1 can organic sweetened condensed milk) 2 eggs room temp 1/4 cup citrus juice (this can be blood orange, grapefruit, etc.) 1/4 cup lime or lemon juice 1 T citrus zest / sliced kumquat.
Pour this tart mixture into your cooled off graham cracker crust, at this point you can sprinkle the custard with herbs, flower petals, kumquat slices, etc. Bake in a 325 degree oven for about 20 minutes or until the crust is golden and the middle of the tart looks set but still wiggles a bit (think jello consistency). Take out of oven and let cool til room temp, then place in fridge for 3 hrs-overnight. Slice and serve alone or with whipped cream.

We must acknowledge that there are so many features that come along with any game display. However, it should strike your mind that not all the features are fundamental. Some of them are secondary, hence with no much weight as the primary ones. In a nutshell, it is indispensable to account for all features that can, in some way, spice up your gaming experience.
So, which are these fundamental features that you should consider when shopping for a gaming monitor?
To make things clear, screen resolution is simply the number of pixels both vertically and horizontally in a game display The feature has to be accounted for when choosing a game display. If you must know, different screens may feature varying resolutions. This tells you that you have to distinguish between one monitor and another, with regard to resolution.
It is resolution that determines how clear the graphics on your gaming will be. Resolution also has a lot to do with the size of displayed images. It, therefore, goes without saying that resolution is indeed a fundamental feature that you must consider in any game display. The most recommended resolution for any game display is 1920×1080.
This is undoubtedly a very integral feature for any monitors. The HDMI port gives you the privilege of making double-use of your monitor. In short, the screen can be used as a computer monitor, or better still as a television set.
You might have realized that some game display have 1 or 2 HDMI ports. A monitor with several HDMI ports is considered ideal since users can have several active inputs. However, a monitor with only a single HDMI port can only facilitate a single connection. For gaming purposes, it is best to opt for a game display that gives you the privilege to connect different inputs with the help of several HDMI ports.
It may be regarded as mediocre but the truth is that monitor size matters a lot. However, most people tend to interpret monitor size in a whole different way. Screen size is not all about large graphics but also clarity. In other words, clarity must be considered concurrently with monitor size.
The fact that one game display brand is incredibly large does not mean that clarity is a guarantee. It would be better to go for a small gaming monitor whose display is indeed clear, than opting for a large monitor whose graphics are pathetic. Computer gaming experts advocate for monitors that are of 27 inches screen size. Whether larger or smaller than this, should be based on secondary preferences.
Some monitors are designed in a manner that they refresh only a few times in a second. Others have the capacity to refresh maximally in a second. What is refreshing rate? It simply means how many times that a particular monitor can refresh in a given time (in this case 1 second). It is a bad idea to consider a game display whose refreshing rate is slow. The higher the refreshing rate, the better. Note that refreshing rate of a monitor has a landmark relationship with display and overall response.
Gaming without sound may be a little boring. Similarly, gaming without high-quality sound may not be enticing. You should, therefore, aim at choosing a monitor that has high-quality speakers. Most gaming monitors come with inbuilt speakers. However, speaker specs are usually outlined on the package. Make sure that the specs are indeed a match to you. Also, go an extra mile to test the capacity of the speakers.
When shopping for a gaming monitor, it is necessary to consider the different types transpiring in the market. Based on technological evolution, different types of gaming monitors have been introduced. The main difference between one type and another is the functionality among other specs.
This is one of the gaming monitor types that modern technology has prompted. The functionality of touch screen monitors relates heavily with mobile gadgets. In most cases, these monitors are known as Smart-TV.
Touch screen monitors have a number of benefits as compared to other types. However, the main benefit is the fact that a touch screen monitor is very easy to operate. As long as you know which function does what, then you are assured of simple operation.
When it comes to price, Budget Display Monitors are way cheaper. When it comes to display, Budget Display monitors are not as efficient as you would expect. However, this does not mean that this kind of gaming monitor cannot serve the stipulated purpose. The display may not be efficient, but it is still satisfactory in gaming. There is the necessity to undertake an in-depth comparison between different Budget Display Monitors. This should help you unearth the best monitor in this category.
Everything about this category of monitors is on the higher side. In fact, this is the most recommended category of gaming monitors. First, the display of these monitors is very clear and of high quality. Secondly, Professional Display Monitors have the most ideal resolution. In a nutshell, you should expect high definition display from this type of gaming monitor.
Other features that complement Professional Display Monitors include; ergonomic stand, auto rotate screen, ideal viewing angles and large screen. You should, however, be ready to invest a lot of money in procuring such a high-quality gaming monitor. The outstanding specs go hand-in-hand with high price deals.
This is the actual type that is meant for gaming. All specifications that such monitors feature tally with gaming in all aspects. One of the defining traits of such monitors is the capacity to support fast picture motion. Resolution and refreshing rate of such monitors is always at its highest in order to facilitate flawless gaming. The speakers of such monitors have the capacity to project sound without distortion. There are cases where these game displays may come with independent speakers. The main point here is that Gaming Monitors are meant for that particular purpose.
In order to keep your gaming experience at its best, the monitor you are using has to be in the right condition. However, this may not be the case if your game display is developing some faults. It is quite unfortunate that most people do not know some of the signs that indicate developing faults in a gaming monitor. Failure to know such signs means that your gaming experience may be cut short when your monitor finally crashes.
Well, a game display is bound to generate some heat especially after a long time of operation. However, if the heat is far beyond normal, then the monitor may be at risk. Excessive heating effect in any screen, let alone gaming monitor, is an indication that repairs are needed.
Normally, screen overheating comes forth when the monitor is exposed to more electric energy than it can handle. The problem may also emanate from long operation without switching it off. Whichever the case, over-heating is the first indicator that your gaming monitor needs urgent checkup, and preferably repair.
One sure thing is that gaming monitors are designed in a manner that they can respond to super-fast image movement without blurriness. There comes a time when the said response is not as efficient as it should. A game display that shows blurriness especially when the picture motion is at its highest should be repaired.
The refreshing rate of a monitor is the core reason behind support of fast-moving images. If the refreshing rate is affected negatively, then it is possible to experience blurriness in image display. The respective adjustments should be made to ensure that the refreshing rate is stabilized.
It goes without saying that if your gaming monitor is taking long before powering, then there is a big problem transpiring. A gaming monitor is made in a way that coordination between all internal constituents is perfect. This is why it should power within 2-4 seconds.
Any time you experience a long delay when your gaming monitor is powering, it would be best to consult a technician. There are cases where you might be forced to restart your monitor severally. This is, again, an indication that there is a serious fault developing. Rectifications can be made to speed up the powering-on of your gaming monitor.
If your monitor is, at times, failing to detect any signal from the input, chances are that there is problem cooking. The problem, at this juncture, is most likely your monitor's HDMI port. This is the port that is used to link gaming input with your monitor, and if there is a problem in it, then input signal may not be detected fast.
We cannot dispute the fact that so many counterfeited gaming monitors have found their way into the market. This implies that you have no choice other than being keen when shopping for a gaming monitor. A counterfeited gaming monitor is not bound to offer you the best gaming experience and this is the main reason why you must fight against all odds to secure an original product.
The great issue with so many people is that they opt for the easiest way of procuring gaming monitors. This means even using the 'back-doors' in order to procure their desired gaming monitors. A wise buyer should know that 'back-doors' in shopping for gaming monitors are the most profound way that counterfeits find their way to the market.
So, what should you do? It is very simple. All you need is to consider more secure ways of procuring a gaming monitor. Right channels of purchase have very low chances of making you a victim of counterfeit gaming monitors.
It is indispensable for any product to be subjected to tax as long as it meets all the laid-down policies. However, you will realize that counterfeit gaming monitors do not feature tax information. Why? This is Simply because such gaming monitors do not have the authority to circulate in the market.
You should detect a foul transaction if at all your gaming monitor does not have tax details. If all the tax details are provided, then you have nothing to worry about since chances are that the monitor is indeed authentic.
It is a norm that gaming monitors go for a considerably high price deal. After all, it is a gaming monitor that you are buying. Manufacturers know that art of creating very outstanding gaming monitors, hence they cannot hesitate to demand for a hefty penny from buyers. What do I mean? It implies that if you come across a gaming monitor that goes at spicy and incredibly low price deal, then you should detect something wrong. You might have come across a gaming monitor that goes at over 50% off the original price, yet there is no any offer transpiring. This is an indication that you could be dealing with counterfeits.
It is very obvious that any legal brand has a seal and packaging labels. This is the fist thing that you should check in any gaming monitor. It is very easy to tell if a monitor is authentic by simply checking the brand label. Unauthentic labels will always have some funny appearances and this must come to you as a red flag.
The size of this display is large to ensure that you get large graphics when gaming. It is possible to play games from afar using this monitor. The fact that Samsung Ultra Definition gives you different viewing angles is another very important feature. With it, you can engage in gaming, alongside your friends due to the diverse viewing angles it provides.
The sleek framing and stand aid in complementing your game theater. The screen can actually be put in the main house without any worry of ruining the overall décor.
Asus has always been considered as an ideal brand, especially when it comes to gaming. This model is not differentfrom other Asus Brand monitors. Its quality is not only appealing but outstanding as well. The very fact that this monitor screen is 24-inches is a promise of large and outstanding graphics.
When it comes to high-motion games, Asus VG248QE is undoubtedly an ideal selection. The resolution and refreshing rate of this monitor is nothing but the best. The adjustable stand of this monitor gives you the privilege of gaming at your most comfortable position.
How about playing your captivating games from a 27-inch monitor? This is certainly a mind-blowing experience. The manufacturer of this display understands the importance of balancing image size and clarity. The fact that this monitor is 27-inch large does not imply that image clarity is compromised. On the contrary clarity is upheld. Resolution and refreshing rate are on the higher side.
What's more, ASUS VS278QP Ultrafast Monitor has adjustments that you can use to alter clarity, volume, brightness and other important things. The in-built speakers that are of high quality will give you the chance to enjoy crystal clear and undistorted voice.
With a 24-Inch display gaming monitor, you should expect the best images. This is the experience that is in store for those who opt for BenQ RL2455HM . It is a modern-design display that will, in addition, go far in making your house appear complemented.
The firm and broad stand assures you of utmost stability of your display. Aside from that, the display is a perfect match with windows 8 and 7, hence you can use it as a computer display.
You can opt to use it as a gaming or computer display. Whichever the case, this display is versatile enough. It has 24-inch screen to ensure that users enjoy large graphic view, spiced up with clarity.
The TN panel technology under which this display operates is nothing but the best. Everything from graphics to resolution to refresh rate to viewing angles are in favor of any user. You can actually adjust the position of this monitor to assume the most convenient viewing angles.

A Guide to Oil and How it is Formed
Sponsored by Smart Touch EnergyJul 17 2018
One of the most valuable resources on earth is oil as it is used in homes, cars, and a range of other products. On average, in the United States, people use more than 19 million barrels of oil per day. Given the large amounts of oil used every year, it is essential to understand the process of making it so that it can be used in a sustainable way.
What is Oil?
Oil is defined as a fossil fuel that is made from hydrogen and carbon. Oil takes an extremely long time and highly specific conditions to form, and most of it that is used presently began forming millions of years ago.
Approximately 10% of the oil that is harvested currently was formed during the Paleozoic age, which fell between 541 and 252 million years ago. The majority of oil was formed during the Mesozoic era, which occurred between 252 and 66 million years ago. The last 20% formed during the Cenozoic age, around 65 million years ago.
How is it Formed?
How is oil really formed? It begins with ancient shallow oceans and the tiny organic matter that called those oceans home — zooplankton, phytoplankton, and algae as well as the bacteria that flourished in those warm shallow waters. When the organisms died, they floated to the ocean's bottom and combined with the clay-like material that constituted the ocean and river beds of the era.
This mud, which is rich in organic matter, covers the dead organic matter, preventing it from decomposing. After millions of years, this mud layer is compressed and becomes a sedimentary rock. The organic material changes into the so-called organic shale.
If the shale is sufficiently deep, between 1 and 2.5 miles below the earth's surface, it begins to get warmer and experiences more pressure. This pressure transforms the organic shale into oil shale, also called kerogen. At this stage, it gets a little bit complicated. If the temperatures are between 90 and 160 °C, the kerogen turns into natural gas and oil. If temperatures are above 160 °C, only graphite or natural gas is formed.
This temperature range is called the oil window. After escaping from the oil shale, the oil rises toward the water above and forms a reservoir. Prospectors look for this situation when searching for new regions to drill — reservoirs that can be safely tapped without causing any damage to the environment.
How is it Obtained?
When a prospector locates a sealed reservoir, they can drill into it and place pipes into the reservoir so as to draw the oil up to the surface where it can be sent to a refinery for processing. These deposits can be brought closer to the surface by geological changes such as earthquakes, thus making it easier for humans to access the oil.
People might just think of oil as gasoline for their cars, but it is used in a range of other products as well. A chief component in petrochemical feedstocks is crude oil, which is used to manufacture plastics. In addition, crude oil is a major component in several different fuels, such as jet fuel, kerosene, and aviation gasoline.
It's even under the tires of vehicles — the roads and highways crisscrossing the landscape are created using road oil and asphalt in which petroleum is the primary component.
Is There Enough Oil to Last Forever?
If oil is continuously being formed by the pressure and heat of the earth's mantle, is there sufficient oil to last forever?
The short answer is no. All the accessible oil in the earth's crust is rapidly being used up by humans, and it will take millions of years for more to form. In the present situation, people may run out of oil sometime in the next century, which means that it is up to them to save the remaining oil. A good place to start is to use less gasoline, which has a lower energy content when compared to other types of fuel, such as heating oil, and also accounts for almost half of the oil usage.
Being a species, humans need to start using oil in a more responsible manner. The planet might be making more of it, but the world isn't getting any smaller.

As one of the most bizarre consequences from stormwater overflow you'll ever see, cocaine residue in the River Thames has been making eels hyperactive.
Stormwater overflow occurs when major storms overwhelm treatment plants and wastewater flows directly into source bodies before it has the chance to be treated. In the case of London's eels, increased caffeine, cocaine, and benzoylecgonine were all found to make their way into the river before wastewater plants could remove them.
Concern for the eels' behavior stems from a 2018 study that found eels exposed to cocaine could have trouble mating, among other issues.
In addition to better stormwater overflow protection measures to prevent the issue, London's residents should consider what they send into their wastewater. A local conservationist, Mike Waller, noted that any foreign constituents that make their way into source water could have adverse effects for wildlife and that consumers should take the first step in protecting their natural surroundings.
Since the issue of stormwater overflow may not be solved for some time, it may be up to London's residents to keep their cocaine residue away from local eels.
