Route 89 is a highway in central Missouri.  Its northern terminus is at Route 100 in Chamois; its southern terminus is at Route 28 in Belle.  A short spur of Highway 89 connects with east U.S. Route 50 east of Linn.

Route description
Route 89 starts at an intersection with Route 100. Shortly after, it intersects with Route K. Then as it goes south, it intersects with Route FF. Then it intersects with Route HH. Further south it intersects with Route J. Then it branches off a spur route of Route 89. Further south, it intersects with US 50. US 50 is shared with Route 89 until an intersection in Linn. Then it continues south and then it intersects with Route E. Several miles south it intersects with Route D. Then it intersects with Route Y outside of Belle. Shortly after, it crosses over into Maries County and ends at an intersection with Route 28 in Belle.

History
Route 89 had originally been part of Route 12B, a branch of Route 12, one of the original 1922 state highways.

Major intersections

Route 89 Spur

Route 89 Spur/Route 89Y is a  highway that forms the eastern leg of a Y intersection between Route 89 and US 50 in Osage County.

Power and portability: why the MSI P65 is the ideal laptop for creatives
By Creative Bloq Staff
A compact workstation that can meet all your creative needs on the go.
(Image credit: MSI)
As the lives of creative professionals become ever-more demanding, so too do the requirements for the hardware they're using. In order to fully support a creative workflow, laptops need to be highly versatile, offering a balance of flexibility, power and portability. While a combination of these requirements can be found in some current laptop models, it's rare to find a device that delivers well on all. Until now.
Introducing the new P65 Creator laptop from MSI.
"The form factor and the weight of the P65 is amazing," Emmanuel Shiu comments. Shiu is a freelance concept artist for the film industry, whose creative career spans over two decades. In that time he has worked at LucasFilm and Image Movers (owned by Disney), and created artwork for a number of blockbuster movies, including Deadpool, Blade Runner 2049 and Thor Ragnarok. The very nature of Shiu's role requires a huge amount of versatility in his hardware.
"I tend to jump very quickly in to 3D when I'm working, and have recently got really heavily into GPU rendering so need a machine that can handle such tasks," Shiu says. "I've tried using laptops and tablets before – including the Wacom companion – with very little success. But the P65 can give my desktop, which has multiple GPUs, a run for its money."
This comes as no surprise when you consider what's under the P65's hood. The device runs on the latest 9th Gen Intel i9 processor and Nvidia's new RTX 2070 Max-Q GPU, the combined power of which making light work of even the most labour intensive creative tasks.
"The P65 can give my desktop, which has multiple GPUs, a run for its money." - Emmanuel Shiu (Image credit: Emmanuel Shiu)
You'd be forgiven for thinking that to house all this power, the P65 would be a bit of a bulky affair. However, it's anything but. Weighing in at just 1.8kg and sporting a chassis less than 2cm thick, this powerhouse is highly portable. "The P65's size surprised me," Shiu says. "When I opened it I was like 'Is there really a 2070 in here?'. It's really light and small and yet packed with so much power.
"When you consider what it can do, the weight is pretty amazing," he adds. "I carry it pretty much everywhere in my backpack with no trouble, and as someone in a self propelling wheelchair, that really says a lot."

The balance of portability and power in the P65 is proving hard to beat. "Working as a freelancer in the film industry means very rarely do you have a permanent office, where hardware is readily available," Shiu explains. "It's usually a temporary office with a bunch of people who have to rely on laptops. I was working recently with a lot of people using Macs, which are super-light and sleek, but weren't able to perform certain tasks due to lack of power. It came as a big surprise to them – and me initially – that the P65 doesn't limit your productivity in this way. On set I was able to do continue doing the same work I would on my desktop, including complex 3D renders. With a laptop performing such tasks there are always going to be thermal issues, and the P65's fans were blowing like crazy. But it got the job done."
The P65 also holds its own when it comes to battery life. Thanks to its larger battery capacity, the device can last up to eight hours after a full charge. But how does it hold up under pressure? "On set I was using the machine pretty hard to demo some 3D renders and it lasted a good hour," Shiu says. "It obviously isn't going to last all day without charge doing such intensive tasks, however it was great to have a portable rendering unit that I could take to the director for on the spot for feedback."
Picture perfect display

Shiu also had no worries when it came to showcasing his artwork, with the P65's in-built True Colour Technology, 100% Adobe RGB colour coverage and 4K HDR display doing every pixel justice. "It's super-bright, I love it!" he says. The only thing Shiu would like is more of it. "The only down side for me was that the screen is just a little small," he comments. "The bigger the screen, the easier it is to show the director or production designer my artwork, and so 17 inches is really the optimum size for me to work creatively on a laptop."
However, clearly not a deal breaker as the P65 has become a firm fixture in Shiu's workflow. "The P65 is a very welcome addition to my tool bag," he says. "So much so, if I ever have to work remotely, or in another state or country, this would probably be the only hardware I'd take with me as I know it would be up to whatever creative tasks I could throw at it."

Q: Iterating Array of Objects in javascript I am having an array that consists the objects with a key, value how can we iterate each object for caste and id.
[
    Object {
        caste = "Banda",
        id = 4
    },
    Object {
        caste = "Bestha",
        id = 6
    }
]

A: In plain JavaScript you can do this:
var array = [{caste: "Banda", id: 4}, {caste: "Bestha", id:6}];

array.forEach(function(element, index) {
    console.log(element.id+" "+element.caste);
});

The callback function is called with a third parameter, the array being traversed.
For learn more!
So, you don't need to load jQuery library.
Greetings.

A: var array = [{caste: "Banda", id: 4}, {caste: "Bestha", id:6}];
var length = array.length;
for (var i = 0; i < length; i++) {
   var obj = array[i];
   var id = obj.id;
   var caste = obj.caste;
}

A: Arrow functions are modern these days
Using jquery $.each with arrow function
 var array = [
    {caste: "Banda", id: 4},
    {caste: "Bestha", id: 6}
 ];

 $.each(array, ( key, value ) => {
     console.log('caste: ' + value.caste + ' | id: ' +value.id);
 });

Using forEach with arrow function
  array.forEach((item, index) => {
      console.log('caste: ' + item.caste + ' | id: ' +item.id);
  });

Using map with arrow function. Here map returns a new array
  array.map((item, index) => {
      console.log('caste: ' + item.caste + ' | id: ' +item.id);
  });

A: Using jQuery.each():

var array = [
   {caste: "Banda", id: 4},
   {caste: "Bestha", id: 6}
];

$.each(array, function( key, value ) {
  console.log('caste: ' + value.caste + ' | id: ' +value.id);
}

);
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

A: The forEach loop accepts an iterator function and, optionally, a value to use as "this" when calling that iterator function.
 var donuts = [
    { type: "Jelly", cost: 1.22 },
    { type: "Chocolate", cost: 2.45 },
    { type: "Cider", cost: 1.59 },
    { type: "Boston Cream", cost: 5.99 }
];

donuts.forEach(function(theDonut, index) {
    console.log(theDonut.type + " donuts cost $"+ theDonut.cost+ " each");
});

Subsequently it can also be broken down to this
var donuts = [
  { type: "Jelly", cost: 1.22 },
  { type: "Chocolate", cost: 2.45 },
  { type: "Cider", cost: 1.59 },
  { type: "Boston Cream", cost: 5.99 }
];

function ShowResults(donuts) {
    console.log(donuts.type + " donuts cost $"+ donuts.cost+ " each");
}

donuts.forEach(ShowResults);

A: Example code:

var list = [
    { caste:"Banda",id:4},
    { caste:"Bestha",id:6},
];

for (var i=0; i<list.length; i++) {
    console.log(list[i].caste);
}

It's just an array, so, iterate over it as always.

A: you can use jquery to iterate through all the objects jQuery wants you to fill a callback function, which jquery will call back. The first input parameter will be given the key and the second input parameter the value:
$.each(dataList, function(index, object) {
   $.each(object,function(attribute, value){
      alert(attribute+': '+value);
   });
});

documentation: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.each/

A: Use jQuery.each:
$.each([your array of objects], function(index, value) {
  // Do what you need, for example...
  alert(index + ': ' + value);
});

A: To iterate over an array filled with stuff in jQuery use $.each, to iterate over an Object for its properties use for..in

The world of social media moves at a lightening pace and it can be difficult to grasp every little change that takes place. Many of these changes are not formally announced, while others fly under the radar. Social media platforms are constantly updated with new features and it's easy to miss out on a few handy ones unless you have your eyes riveted on them 24/7.
Check out these six helpful features of Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn that you probably don't know exist!
Staying relevant and on top of conversations while creating a consistent stream of tweets to engage followers is the biggest challenge people regularly face on Twitter. The speed at which Twitter rolls makes it even more difficult to curate the top content on this platform. You can solve this problems with a quick trick that allows you to find the most popular conversations across Twitter and share them.
This will help you pull out all the social trend related stories that were popular last week. Simply scanning the retweet area of these archived tweets can tell you which stories and conversations were popular.
Twitter cards allow users to attach photos, videos, and media to their tweets, making them stand out. But what's most interesting is that Twitter includes analytics specifically for these cards, giving insights into the number of impressions and link clicks the cards receive, how interaction with these tweets has changed over time, the top accounts that interacted with cards, etc. Here's how you can get started with Twitter Cards.
Facebook's "Save for Later" feature allows you to save and bookmark those things — like posts, videos, links shared your friends, upcoming events etc. — you find interesting on Facebook and want to view later.
This feature particularly helps when you're browsing Facebook on-the-go and would like to save things for later when you have the time to go through them in more detail.
If it's a page you want to save, click the Gear icon and then select 'Save'. For an event, click the Ribbon icon and then select 'Save'. To view saved posts or articles, you can go to www.facebook.com/saved or access your saved articles directly from your Newsfeed.
It's important for marketers to understand why Facebook serves up certain advertisements on your timeline and what triggers it because this knowledge can help you customize ad experiences for your customers.
According to Facebook, your ad preferences depend on information you've shared with Facebook, Pages you like or engage with, ads you click on, apps and websites you use, and information from data providers and advertisers.
Viewing your personal ad preferences will give you an idea of what type of ads Facebook may serve to your prospects and customers.
Normally, you would have to purchase an InMail or need a premium account that comes with an allotted number of InMails. But, with this neat little trick you can send private messages to people you're not connected to without spending a dollar or upgrading your account.
Join a group that the person you want to message is already a member of. To do this, visit their profile and scroll down to see their groups and select the groups you can join. Next, visit the group and go to the 'Members List'. Type the person's name in the search box and when his/her name comes up, click on the message button and voila!
If you're using LinkedIn for lead generation purposes, you'd want to store all those heaps of contact data in your database. Good news is, you can do that without manually entering each and every contact! LinkedIn's export contacts feature enables you to export your own LinkedIn connections — both contacts you made while using the service and ones you've manually imported into LinkedIn — as a downloadable CSV or VCF file.
How many of these 'hidden' social media features were you aware of? Do you know of other 'hidden' social media features? Share them with us!

Faith Hill After Tim McGraw's Onstage Collapse in Dublin: 'Drink Water, People!'

After her husband, Tim McGraw, collapsed onstage in Dublin, Ireland, on Sunday night (March 11), Faith Hill was tasked with informing the audience about what had happened. Readers can press play above to watch the country star and her band address the crowd, the members of which responded classily.
"So, Tim is fine," Hill told the audience, which cheered loudly at the news, following a 20-minute break in the show. "We've all been a little bit dehydrated, traveling so much, and he's been super dehydrated, and I apologize, but I made the decision that he cannot come back out onstage.
"So drink water, people!" Hill admonished the fans. "Always keep yourself hydrated."
As Hill concluded her remarks, the crowd broke into a "We love Tim!" chant. Hill and her band then performed a gospel song, "What a Friend We Have in Jesus," and ended the set.
McGraw and Hill spent the weekend (March 9-11) performing as part of the Country to Country Festival in the United Kingdom; they headlined in London, England, on Friday night (March 9), Glasgow, Scotland, on Saturday night (March 10), and Dublin on Sunday night. McGraw had just finished performing his song "Humble and Kind" during his co-headlining set with Hill when he dropped to his knees, then sat down onstage and needed assistance getting up and offstage.
"When a spotlight was switched on him, he was slumped on his knees on the lefthand side of the stage," Del Crooks, a member of the audience, tells the BBC. "The light was quickly turned off, and you could see his crew helping him off -- and the band ran over as well."
A representative for McGraw tells Rolling Stone that McGraw was "suffering from dehydration."
"He was attended to by local medical staff on-site and will be fine," the statement continues. "He and Faith thank everyone for their love and support and look forward to seeing their Irish fans again soon."
On Monday (March 12), McGraw was spotted leaving a building in Dublin and appeared to be in good health.
McGraw and Hill spent much of 2017 out on the road on their co-headlining Soul2Soul Tour, in support of their duets album, The Rest of Our Life, released late last year. In May, they will begin a 2018 leg of the trek, currently scheduled to run through late July.

Head Crusher è un singolo del gruppo musicale statunitense Megadeth, l'unico estratto dal dodicesimo album in studio Endgame e pubblicato il 7 agosto 2009.

La canzone
Si tratta di uno dei brani più pesanti mai composti dal gruppo. Comincia con un potente riff di chitarra di Chris Broderick, che è sottofondo di un piccolo assolo di Dave Mustaine. Dopo una strofa si sente il primo ritornello, un po' ripetitivo ma molto rozzo, nello stile dei Megadeth di Countdown to Extinction. Dopo un'altra strofa ed un altro ritornello si sente una voce che fa riferimento alla boxe dicendo frasi da arbitro sportivo come "get your positions" (prendete le vostre posizioni). Lo special cantato da Dave Mustaine fa da introduzione all'assolo di Chris Broderick, uno degli assoli più veloci della band.

Tracce

Formazione
 Dave Mustaine – voce, chitarra
 Chris Broderick – chitarra
 James Lomenzo – basso

His ultimate goal is always to help participants to understand HOW to care for their brain throughout a lifetime and get home safely after every shift. He will help you discover how to deal with stress, sleep issues, distractions and keeping the brain upshifted instead of downshifted.
Safety culture requires a healthy brain. Job safety is brain safety. This learning is applicable across all industries and professional settings.
Are you living and working in a multitasking environment? Is your brain under a constant state of heightened stress? Everything you do requires your brain in this world of increasing knowledge and technology. You are going to have to use it more effectively than ever. A safety culture starts with you and the most valuable thing that you own – your brain. Mistakes and accidents happen when your brain is downshifted. To maintain productivity and ensure success, there is a need to be resilient. Discover how to upshift your brain to overcome the fight, flight or freeze response to stay alert and focused while working. This different perspective to safety means being brain smart on the job and understanding how your brain operates. This workshop is full of hope and optimism for your future.
Are you living and working in a multitasking environment? Is your brain under a constant state of heightened stress? Excess stress means neurons are dying.

Decided to take a year off from this forum (for many different reasons) and now I come back only go realize that it's nearly dead. What happened? Did everyone lose interest like I did?
Welcome back, Shadow. I've been wondering where you'd gone to. I think clutchdisc and inlinepaul ran away, haven't seen Corolla around, but many are still around answering questions and stuff.
In the interim I went from feeling like an interloper being as I had the automatic Escape to be one of the SS again with my Focus ST, in Tangerine Scream no less.

Focus ST...nice! I've been busy with building a new house. I moved 2 hours south for my job.
Hmm.....I guess the crowd will eventually die out as sticks become less available. But there are still lots of manuals available in new cars.
Yeah, I hear ya. Need some good content to stir up some interest.
So I drove an M4 the other day. I was surprised when I downshifted and the car rev matched for me. I don't remember reading about that feature on the M4. Apparently, the new M2 will also have it.
Welcome Back!! I noticed you weren't posting but it doesn't seem like it's been a year already (i mean that in the best way possible). At least you didn't tell us all off like another prominent member did before leaving a few years back (anyone remember that??). So you moved to South Joysey??
I'm still here as well, but I rarely come here any more. I'm still a manual enthusiast and recently switched to a manual Forester for my current vehicle, but my general interests have shifted a bit, and this forum rarely has discussions about backpacking, motorcycle adventuring, backpacking, hiking, etc.
So, most of my online time is spent reading ADVrider and similar places to get inspiration for places to venture out to. That, and I spend most of my free time outside of the house riding the bikes, traveling and getting my hiking boots dirty.

southern jersey definitely has similarities to upstate ny. in many ways it's even nicer. many picture jersey as the land of smoke stacks, ghettos and endless sketchy foreign gas pump jockeys, but that's only in parts of jersey (namely in certain parts of northern jersey).
I'm having motivational issues and a Ford ASBO, so I haven't been around on the forum that much. I burp up something on the IRC channel from time to time, though.
Yeah, it's quiet here - in the last month there have been a few newcomers with questions, but THC and RP usually have the responses handled by the time I check in... so I haven't been commenting nearly as much either. We're probably all in a similar boat - still enthusiastic, but otherwise busy.


Before any surgical procedure, it's only natural that you'll have some questions to make sure you're a good candidate and you have the right tools to set yourself up for success. So if you're thinking about getting eyelid surgery, whether for medical or cosmetic reasons, here's what you need to know to help you prepare.
The first step of your eyelid surgery journey is to pick the right plastic surgeon. This is definitely not something that you want to rush into, so take some time to do your research at home, narrow down your search and schedule a consultation with your top pick or two.
During your eyelid surgery consultation, ask how many blepharoplasty surgeries he or she has performed, and ask about credentials like board certification with the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery.
Getting the pre-surgery jitters is a completely normal feeling, but choosing an experienced plastic surgeon and understanding what to expect at every step along the way can help to calm those nerves.
Wait about three weeks after eyelid surgery to resume strenuous exercise and drinking alcohol.
Eyelid surgery is still a surgical procedure, so plan on taking some time off work and other activities to rest and recover. Most people are able to get back to work within 10 to 14 days after blepharoplasty, but you should be able to read in just a few days, so go ahead and knock out some books on your reading list while you recover.
To speed up your eyelid surgery recovery, you'll need to avoid wearing makeup and contact lenses for the first two weeks after surgery. Try not to rub or scratch your eyes or eye area during this time. This should help to reduce swelling and ensure high quality results.
After blepharoplasty, expect to have some swelling, redness and bruising. You might also notice that your eyes are more sensitive to light than usual or feel dry and itchy. These are normal side effects and should gradually subside over the next days and weeks as you continue to heal.
In the meantime, applying cold compresses, wearing sunglasses and using eye drops can help to make you more comfortable.
People often wonder what they'll look like after eyelid surgery, and some people even have concerns that friends and family won't recognize them. Rest assured that you will absolutely still look like yourself—just a more youthful and energized version!
In fact, friends and acquaintances might not even realize you've had any surgery at all, but they might ask what you've been doing to look so fresh and recharged.
Although you should be able to get back to your normal routine after the first two weeks or so, your eyelid surgery results are still going to take some time to fully develop. It can take swelling several months to fully subside, so plan on your final results gradually revealing themselves within six months to a year after your blepharoplasty.
Wondering what you need to know before eyelid surgery? Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Rand of Seattle, Washington shares a few helpful facts.

NPR did a story this morning, telling us that independent bookstores were doing quite well. This comes a day after GalleyCat reported that Barnes & Noble's revenues were down 8% for the last quarter. I do think conditions favor the small, nimble, niche dwellers at this point in the evolution of the book business both retail and publishing (Amazon's continued total dominance excepted of course).
In a January post, I wrote of signs of health among independent bookstores. I suspect these are indications of the balkanization of the book business. It is true that Random House Penguin has really only just got going, but I'm going to predict that that will be the last of the publishing mega-mergers. The book business just isn't suited to a big business configuration. Books want to be loved as individuals. Selling them in bulk isn't ideal — there are just so many of them, and each one is directed at one person: the author has a reader in mind, and any one customer will be likely to want this book but not that one or those others. Publishing and selling to like-minded groups of individuals isn't really a business model that lends itself to consolidation and scale. We've tried it, and we've almost always been disappointed.
Amazon is amazing, sui generis, and goes from strength to strength. I was interviewed by Len Edgerly of The Kindle Chronicles (a weekly podcast) recently and made some fairly rude comments about the people in publishing who are always badmouthing Amazon. It's true that Amazon uses its dominant position to demand more and more from its suppliers, but that's what any large business does — think of Walmart, and then think where the low prices really come from. Naturally publishers do exactly the same to the book manufacturing suppliers they use, without any similar complaining. But it's hard to imagine a regular book publisher whose largest customer isn't Amazon: one or two have I acknowledge tried to abjure sales to Amazon, and I wonder how that's going for them. Grousing about your largest customer is traditional if maladaptive behavior.

"By getting the word out early in the year, we hope to support the communities we live in, by helping individuals and families; as well as reducing the stigma and misunderstandings surrounding mental health issues."

Struggling for 2 weeks, any help would be appreciated.

A: I suggest that you update the ethernet driver alx. Download this package to your desktop: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/2015/11/15/backports-20151115.tar.gz Right-click it and select 'Extract Here.' Now, back to the terminal:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential
cd ~/Desktop/backports-20151115
make defconfig-alx
make
sudo make install

Reboot and tell us if there is any improvement. We will probably have one more step.


Here are the 100+ most followed psychologists and neuroscientists on Twitter based on follower counts recorded over the last few weeks. If we've missed anyone who should be here, please let us know via comments and we'll add them in. This is an update to our September 2011 post "Psychologists who Tweet". Check the comments to that earlier post for even more psychologists on Twitter than we were able to include here.
Richard Thaler. Behavioural economist. Followers: 16709.
If we've missed any psychologists or neuroscientists who should be in the top 100 please let us know via comments and we'll add them in.
--Thanks to Emma Smith for help with compiling the update.
Roxana Rudzik-Shaw (Tw: @RRS_counselling OR https://twitter.com/RRS_counselling). Psychologist, Counsellor & Clinical Supervisor. MBPsS, MBACP, ACTO.
*waves* I should probably be on this list, as should Chris Chambers and Molly Crockett.
Dr Pam Spurr (Tw: @DrPamSpurr OR https://twitter.com/DrPamSpurr). Psychologist, Life Coach, Agony Aunt.
There was talk of auto updating this list via some kind of scripting magic to read and update counts. Is that possible? This kind of info is handy for grants, etc!
At the risk of being ridiculously self-serving, I have 7,607 followers, and I write about neuroscience.
@jamiemadigan I write about the psychology of video games.
Thanks for including me on the list. My position at APA has actually changed since last year. I'm now the head of APA's Center for Organizational Excellence.
Daniel Gilbert has 7,511 followers.
Amy Cuddy has over 8,000.
And @SocialPsych has over 44,000.
Susan Whitbourne @swhitbo approx 10,000 followers.
@s_canning Clinical psychologist and professor. 1469 followers.
Surely it's the quality of tweets going out rather than follower number?
I am a child psychiatrist, professor at the medical school and a faculty member for a clinical child psychology graduate program in Istanbul.
Those are some big numbers for you to have ignored them. One of them belongs in your TOP TEN.
Hi! I would be honored to be on your list. I am a science communicator and PhD neuroscientist.
@JeremyHouska -- Assistant Professor of #Psychology Tweets Cognitive/ Social/ Teaching & Learning/ eLearning/ Higher Ed.
Yeah, that would be really cool. This Twitter name list should be a semi-annual list updated.
Sanjay Srivastava @hardsci, 1399 followers.
This is very cool! Thanks for compiling! But I'm not sure what you mean by work psychologist; I'm a social psychologist.
How could you miss Sam Harris? @SamHarrisOrg Author, Neuroscientist: 142,415 followers.
Very good point! In which case I'd put forward James C Coyne @coyneoftherealm. Interesting to see that the top tweeter Mendonsa has lost 200+k followers over the past few weeks. According to twitter he only has 400+k followers and not 600+ mentioned here!
My attention has just been drawn to this - for the record I'm not the 'anonymous' person who kindly pointed out that I'm on twitter (as of a year ago). Thanks I have @6000 followers.
Thank you for compiling this list!! Will greatly help in my research.
I'm honored to be first place!
I might suggest to add my accounts @WilliamPRyanPhd and @CaringTherapy - both accounts have over 3000 followers and will followback related fields psychotherapist,Psychologist, Counselors, Life Coach on Twitter. Thank you for this great list of therapist on twitter.
Hi, Christian, I'd love to be on your twitter list. I tweet as @miltonbroome on Cyberpsychology and Developmental Psychology. Dr Simon Bignell (University of Derby).
@dcopuk 2185 followers - that's more than a lot of these folks!
Surely Dr. Jay Watts @Shrink_at_Large should feature in this list?
I was voted on of the top psychology professors to follow on Twitter. @DeborahSerani 10K + followers. Please consider including me. Thanks!


January 17, 2016 – "May Your Saucer Be Full" from John Knox Kirk on Vimeo.
A sermon preached at The Kirk of Kansas City, Missouri, on January 17, 2016.
had the day off…a rare treat.
at the Clock Tower Bakery in Overland Park.
I saw pictures, so I know its true.
There were savery treats. There were sweat treats.
And there was tea. It was oh so delicious. Lucky girls.
They had huge smiles on their faces. Lots of fun.
You remember saucers, don't you?
–Those little plates we use with a tea cup or a coffee cup?
we can sometimes see saucers with cups of tea.
I even have a few in my cupboard.
The fuller the cup, the more likely one is to slosh.
Hence the expression: May your saucer always be full.
May your cup always be full. So full, its OVERFLOWING.
This is an appropriate blessing to offer to a couple who is about to marry, I think.
and the formation of a new family.
nobody thinks about troubles at your average wedding.
At a wedding, the future is wide open.
Everything is blessing and possibility.
as a metaphor for God's reign.
And the New Testament likes weddings just as much as the Hebrew Scriptures did.
The early church loved to describe Jesus as a bridegroom and the church as his bride.
Israel will be married. Jesus brings the wine. How much better can life get?
The story of the wedding feast in Cana sure starts happily enough.
The opening words, "On the third day," are significant.
if not many days longer.
would definitely be a disaster of biblical proportions.
But, before we go any further, there's a trick to reading the Gospel of John.
Stories in the Gospel of John are always multi-layered.
There's the obvious, surface story of Jesus and his mother at a party.
the "real deal," visible only to people in the know.
The opening reference to the third day is not simply a time reference.
It is a reference to the "third day," the day of resurrection, the day of Easter.
as a wedding feast was is the kingdom of God inaugurated.
a bursting forth of the power of the resurrection and of God's kingdom.
Life's saucers don't get any fuller than this.
and for those gathered to celebrate it.
than it is a sign of God's decision to flood the world with grace.
the reality of what God is.
comes back with even more, even better, in abundance….
I mean, who saves the best wine for the last? No one does that!
The key to this story is not in the fact that water was converted into wine.
in the context of a wedding celebration.
The good stuff was brought out, and more merriment would ensue.
What we thought was over….was just beginning!
that leveled Haiti in January of 2010.
Do you remember that. Six years ago this past week.
They never did come up with an accurate count.
that absolutely wrecked that Island nation.
A nation that, in a blink, lost almost everything.
going from a sermon on weddings to the reminder of such heartache.
But its important not to forget: So much misery. So much wreckage.
Its pretty much the opposite of a wedding celebration, when you come to think of it.
At a wedding, there is abundant hope. Wild joy.
At the epicenter of wretched Haiti, there was …. nothingness.
so we can be equipped to think theologically when the next one does come.
At the time, the world worked hard to make sense of the senseless.
That's what we human beings do.
there was so much more destruction.
even more vulnerable to such catastrophe.
The theological question is: "where was God" in all of this.
and ponder the aftermath in the quiet and safety of my own home.
Where was God in Haiti?
with dubious thanks to folks like Pat Robertson.
because of a ruler's lack of adherence to Robertson's faith.
But that IS one answer to the question: Where is God in Haiti.
It's the wrong answer, but it is an answer.
The problem…is that THAT kind of God, is not the God of full saucers.
but when Jesus' time comes….it comes…ON THE CROSS.
Our God does not Cause Suffering.
stands in solidarity with those who are suffering.
and brought to them the presence and the love of God.
and deeds of abundant Grace.
And at the end, when his time had come, Jesus died for all.
God suffered in Haiti with those who suffer.
God held survivors close. God emboldened relief efforts.
to put lives back together again.
even if glimpses of God were hard to see through the dust of the rubble.
I've been through one earthquake in my life.
missionary stint I spent there between college and my first job.
directly above my head swinging back and forth.
where tremors are quite uncommon.
to process what happened on the island of Haiti this past week. None.
that this country is dealing with.
making an already desperate situation even worse.
100,000 have died in the earthquake.
And that's just an early estimate – it's sure to go much higher.
It's a tragedy that none of us in the Western world can fully get a grasp on.
have the potential to bring out the best in people.
Already tons of agencies are raising millions of dollars for relief efforts.
to teach us a thing or two.
and screaming and running around looking for loved ones.
And there was also singing.
I have no idea what hymns.
And I don't think it really matters what they were singing anyway.
and the well-being of their already-troubled country – was to SING.
singing in the aftermath of unspeakable tragedy.
This wasn't the first time, of course.
Okay, so "New York, New York" isn't a hymn.
But again, that's not important.
leads us to turn to music in our darkest hour.
But it's there, and it's powerful.
I've seen it time and time again, as I know you have too.
We had a recent funeral service where the widow was rather stoic.
wasn't allowing her to experience grief.
shared an amazing rendition of Just a Closer Walk With Thee.
It was as if her mind finally gave her heart permission to feel.
I was struck by how it was the music … did this.
Why? Why does music do this to us?
during the frigid chapters of our lives?
to the heart of who we are?
From a faith standpoint this shouldn't surprise us.
The Psalms are songs – hymns, quite literally.
allowing both singer and listener to enter into those places as well.
their tune never grows old.
can be a comfort in difficult and challenging times.
And Lord knows Haiti is in one of those times right now.
What kind of God do we serve?
What kind of God do we follow?
beginning at Cana, ending at Calvary.
and waited for a glimmer of hope which will surely return.
in job loss and cancer fight and demons of depression.
through prayer, though our own gifts, through holding them in our hearts.
and to show the world that God operates differently from what we might expect.
may your cups be so full that you can see God working in a torn-apart world.

"My Dream is to have a conversation with Tim Tebow."
It's not uncommon for a football fan to find themselves watching a game and yelling coaching advice at his TV. However, how many fans can say they've emailed those "insightful suggestions" to a coach? Not many. Well, 20-year-old Mariel has done that on more than one occasion.
This Greyson, Georgia native (and loyal football fan) boldly set her heart and her sights on attending the University of Florida and becoming a Gator when everyone around her had sworn their allegiance to the Georgia Bulldogs. And while Jim McElwain, the former UF Football Coach never did respond to Mariel's emails, she did see her idea of having the quarterback stay in the pocket longer incorporated in later Gator games.
Mariel's friends and family describe her as a bold young woman with a fierce work ethic, determination, and sense of loyalty. So, it was no surprise when she was accepted to the school of her choice or that she excelled through her freshmen year of college.
During the fall semester of her sophomore year, Mariel became spontaneously ill inevitably resulting in her withdraw from school. She was diagnosed with a very rare blood disorder called Hypereosinophilia and many other health difficulties ensued. Her condition has worsened after having four strokes. Her vision and word finding ability have been affected and she is now paralyzed from the waist down.
Mariel is being treated through blood infusions and chemo to fight an undiagnosed autoimmune process. Mariel also spends most of her days right now at Shepherd Center, where she works with therapists to adjust to her new normal. Mariel is a fighter; however, she doesn't face her battles alone. Her mom, two younger brothers, Weston and Russell, as well as her father, stepmother, and stepfather have been her support system and are always there to help. Another source of comfort and inspiration for Mariel has been former UF Quarterback, Tim Tebow. Mariel has always respected Tebow as both an athlete and a person for "always remaining true to his beliefs."
Despite her recent challenges, Mariel still works as hard as she can to regain her independence, return to school, and get back into the outdoors. She also dreams of having a conversation with Tim Tebow. While she has been a Tim Tebow fan for as long as she can remember, she thinks that now she would have even more to talk about with the young man who was once called Timmy the Tumor and who has endured his share of life-altering setbacks.

How to buy the Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 in the UK
Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 news
The Mi Pad 3 was unveiled by Xiaomi yesterday, and here we'll show you how to buy the new tablet in the UK. Read the latest news on the Mi Pad 3 specs, features, price and UK launch date.
During its Mi Fan Festival Xiaomi has unveiled the Mi Pad 3. Here's how to get the new tablet in the UK
By Marie Black, Editor In Chief | 06 Apr 2017
This week Xiaomi is celebrating its birthday as the company hits seven years old. What better way to celebrate than with the launch of a new tablet: the Xiaomi Mi Pad 3.
(Well, we'd like to see the release of the upcoming Mi6, though for now we'll refrain from being fussy.)
Successor to its Mi Pad 2, the Mi Pad 3 is an affordable Android tablet with a 7.9in screen, 64GB of storage and a capacious 6,600mAh battery. Here are the facts you need to know.
When is the Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 release date?
The Mi Pad 3 goes on sale today - 6 April 2017 - but only in China. In the UK there is no official launch date, because Xiaomi products are not officially sold over here. But don't let that put you off, as we'll explain below.
How much does the Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 cost in the UK?
The official RRP of the Mi Pad 3 is ?1499, which converts to $217 or £174.28. However, you will pay more than this in the UK due to the fact you cannot officially buy it here.
How to buy the Mi Pad 3 in the UK
As with all Xiaomi products, you can get hold of the Mi Pad 3 through a Chinese importer such as Geekbuying.
Geekbuying already has a pre-order page set up for the Mi Pad 3, which it says will ship in 28 days. Geekbuying offers free shipping to the UK, though you will have to allow for slightly longer delivery times.
The current price - though this will likely fluctuate - is £247.70 ($299.99), and although higher than the RRP that's still a pretty good deal for such a well specified tablet (we'll explore this in greater detail below).
Before you buy anything, be sure to check out our guide to buying Chinese tech.
What are the key features and specifications?
The Mi Pad 3 is a very well-specified compact tablet with plenty of performance, storage and battery power. It runs MIUI 8, in common with all Mi mobile devices, and features several upgrades over the Mi Pad 2 but is more of a refresh than a total re-write.
Whereas its predecessor came with 2GB of RAM and 16- or 64GB of storage, the Mi Pad 3 features 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage as standard. Battery capacity has also increased from 6,160mAh to 6,600mAh, with battery life now expected to reach up to 867 hours on standby and 12 hours for media playback.
The camera has been upgraded from 8Mp to a 13Mp, f/2.2 model.
You've less choice when it comes to colour, though, with the new tablet available only in Champagne Gold. The Mi Pad 2 was additionally available in Dark Grey. The pair otherwise look very similar.
One thing to note is that while the Mi Pad 2 could run Android or Windows, the Mi Pad 3 is restricted to Android only. This is due to a processor change - from the x86 compatibility of the Tegra K1 in the Mi Pad 2 to the new MediaTek MT8176 chipset that integrates two 2.1GHz Cortex-A72 cores and four 1.7GHz Cortex-A53 cores.
Specification Mi Pad 3
Display 7.9in (2048x1536, 326ppi, 4:3) IPS
Processor 2.1GHz MediaTek MT8176 hexa-core 64-bit
Graphics PowerVR GX6250
RAM 4GB LPDDR3
Storage 64GB eMMC 5.0
Battery capacity 6,600mAh
Camera 13Mp, f/2.2 rear, 5Mp front
Connectivity Dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, USB-C, Bluetooth 4.1
Operating system MIUI 8 (based on Android)
Dimensions 200x132.6x6.95mm

Home News JUST IN!! Canada To Accept 1.2 Million Immigrants Over 3 Years
JUST IN!! Canada To Accept 1.2 Million Immigrants Over 3 Years
Canada has announced plans to accept more than 1.2 million new immigrants over the next three years.
Immigration Minister, Marco Mendicino made the disclosure to journalists on Friday in Ottawa.
The government explained that Canada wants to fill gaps in its labour market and boost the economy.
The sectors were seriously affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Canada will accept 401,000 new permanent residents in 2021, 411,000 in 2022 and 421,000 in 2023.
Mendicino admitted that his country needs more workers, adding that, "immigration is the way to get there".
"Before the pandemic, our government's goal to drive the economy forward through immigration was ambitious. Now it's simply vital," he said..
Ottawa, the capital of Canada, has projected 232,500 newcomers from the economic class of immigrants in 2021.
The state will receive 103,500 family members of people already in Canada, 59,500 refugees and other protected persons.
At least, 5,500 people will be accepted on humanitarian grounds.
Robert Falconer, immigration and refugee policy researcher at the University of Calgary School of Public Policy, has reacted to the target.
"Canada announced new immigration targets today for 2021-2023. If they hit them, it will be the highest years on record since 1911", he tweeted.
