The cosmetic dentist is actually one of the only dentists people are excited to come and see. Even with a large percentage of the population deathly afraid of dentists, it would seem that the ability to choose improvements to your teeth overcomes much of this anxiety. This is probably because, as a cosmetic dentist, we are focused solely on making your teeth look better, and this is a goal that most anybody can embrace. To do this, we use a variety of techniques that range from the quick and easy to the more complicated. Everything from teeth whitening to dental veneers and dental crowns falls under the banner of what a cosmetic dentist does, and so we are very often asked by patients if there are conditions or situations that would prohibit them from getting a cosmetic dentist treatment. The answer, in the simplest of terms, is no - with a caveat. The caveat is that when you come in to see your cosmetic dentist, we will put you through an intensive examination process. Our goal is to find out if there are any underlying problems or conditions that would cause undue complications in the cosmetic fixtures and treatments. For example, when we place dental veneers, we are required to shave away a portion of your enamel so the new veneers can be placed flush with the rest of the tooth. Doing this safely means we have to ensure there is no infection under the surface that could create problems during or after the procedure.
There are a few things that can delay a cosmetic dental procedure, but the list of things that can stop you from getting something like veneers permanently is negligible. The good news is that when you have a problem, it is often minor enough to be fixed in a few weeks through a variety of treatment options, putting you back on track to get your cosmetic dentist fixes for your smile. Our goal when you first come in to get a cosmetic dentist solution to your smile is to quickly identify if there are any issues we need to deal with, and effectively treat them so you have a healthy situation going into the cosmetic part of the treatment. Remembering that many of the things we do have a sense of permanence, it is critically important to start your treatment with a clean and healthy mouth.
Perhaps the most common reason why your cosmetic dentist may need to pause while giving you the treatment is a very common issue across the dental world. Cavities, which are actually a form of decay, are something that need to be treated before many cosmetic procedures can be initiated. This is because cavities damage the enamel, with the oral bacteria being able to introduce decay into the mouth. We do not want to work on the teeth around this decay, which can spread easily to the newly fixed and still vulnerable tooth. Instead, it is far more prudent to clean out the bacteria, have your cosmetic dentist fill it, and then move to the next step.

West Virginia State Breaks Ground on New Residence Hall
Institute, W.V. — Scholars Hall will be the first new housing built on campus in more than 40 years.
Groundbreaking ceremony at WVSU.Institute, W.V. — West Virginia State University (WVSU) has begun construction of a 291-bed $20 million on-campus residence hall. Ambling University Development Group is the developer, which was awarded the project through a national bid process along with its partner firms: Choate Construction, Pray Construction and architecture firms Niles Bolton Associates and Silling Associates. Financing for the project was provided using tax-exempt bonds and was coordinated by RBC Capital Markets.
The building, which is named the Judge Damon J. Keith Scholars Hall, is the first residence hall to be constructed on the WVSU campus since 1969. The hall will be four stories tall and will sit on the main lawn of campus and provide a pass-through to connect the student union and campus quad. It will feature multiple suite-style living options, in addition to a 150-seat multi-purpose room, a café and gaming lounge. It will open in fall 2014.
WVSU alumni, Damon J. Keith, for whom the new residence hall is named, has served as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit since 1977. He is well-known for ordering the government to produce the wire tap transcripts from the Watergate scandal. He is a 1943 graduate of West Virginia State University.

A Case for a World with Blockchains and Tokens
Henry Elder
Each successive generation of technological advancement seems to shrink the world a bit more. Telegraphs, telephones, and televisions beam distant communications and images directly into our houses around the clock. Trains, airplanes, and motor vehicles shuttle us in comfort and at speed across previously unimaginable distances at any hour of the day. National economies have enjoyed decades of globalization, bringing millions of the world's inhabitants out of poverty, and further accelerating technological development. Yet the capital markets that power the global economy remain limited by region and time zone. The advent of tokenization, powered by global, 24/7 Blockchain markets, promises to globalize capital markets.
Capital markets have remained regionally confined for many reasons, with Blockchain technology addressing three of the most important. First, the world's capital regulations are a patchwork of differing laws, enforcement, and agencies. Understanding and complying with these differing regimes is a herculean, expensive task that requires an army of lawyers and consultants. Second, existing capital markets operate on a workday schedule, dissuading participation in far-flung time zones. The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the largest stock exchange in the world, operates Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM EST. It is closed on weekends and holidays. The third problem is banking – transferring capital across borders is subject to higher fees, longer waiting periods, and higher scrutiny than domestic money transfers. In addition to waiting two days for each trade to settle, foreign investors must wait longer to repatriate capital.
Bitcoin has already impacted the financial sector with successful decentralized operations for a decade, securing billions of dollars' worth of value for most of that time. However, it was the advent of Ethereum that catapulted the Blockchain into the mainstream. By combining the flexibility of a full programming language with the decentralized nature of the Blockchain, Ethereum catalyzed tokenization. Tokenization is simply the representation of a traditional asset by a Blockchain-based token. The token can represent any sort of asset – equity, debt, commodities, real estate, and others. This token then benefits from the Blockchains unique attributes, tackling the three traditional capital market weaknesses identified above.
The programmability of a token allows the issuer to encode restrictions on use, trade, and possession. This has led to the rise of regulatory protocols, which encode global regulations directly into the token. Protocols allow the issuer of a tokenized asset to tailor the restrictions included in the token's code to the regulatory jurisdictions that the issuer intends to sell the token within. Many protocols work with existing compliance assurance and identity verification services to create whitelist registries of Blockchain addresses. Tokens can then be encoded to only trade within those whitelisted ecosystems. Legal counsel is still highly recommended, but compliance protocols can greatly simplify counsel's efforts and reduce costs.
Extended trading hours have been tested before, but those experiments failed for two main reasons: the entrenched incumbents don't want to allow lower-cost foreign competitors to enter the market, and existing participants are already accustomed to the traditional trading hours. The lack of participation removed liquidity in extended-hours trading and killed the momentum necessary to spur adoption. The Blockchain does not suffer from these problems. Blockchain-based capital markets have always operated 24/7, and every investor who participates in those markets demands round-the-clock access and liquidity. I recently celebrated that fact by purchasing ether, the native token of the Ethereum Blockchain, at 11 PM on the 4th of July. My order was filled immediately. The major Blockchains already support tens of billions of dollars in daily transactions, with faster trade settlement, lower fees, and no downtime. Their eventual adoption as the backbone of global capital markets is inevitable.
Finally, transactions on the Blockchain settle within minutes, not days. You can transfer tokens to exchanges that have domestic bank accounts, then exchange those tokens into fiat to wire or withdraw without crossing international borders. The whole process is easier, faster, and less expensive than a typical bank transfer or brokerage transaction and will continue to improve as the technology becomes more mainstream.
When applied to real estate, tokenization opens the door to simplified cross-border investments, access to global liquidity, and simplified investor management. Tokenized ownership can make it significantly easier for LPs to trade in and out of previously illiquid positions. Programmable securities can automate the process of dividend payments and create software interfaces for the execution of equity rights. Eventually, the title to a property can be vested in a single token, reducing transactions from complex multi-party processes to a simple transfer between buyer and seller. The token's history is publicly auditable, and it can be placed into a Blockchain-enabled smart contract that acts as an autonomous escrow, holding the seller's property token and the buyer's cryptocurrency proceeds in escrow until both parties assent to the exchange.
If Blockchain is a technology in its childhood, then tokenization is an infant. Nonetheless, there are thousands of talented entrepreneurs working tirelessly to mature the technology and drive adoption. Their success will set the stage for a boom in global liquidity and cross-border investment on an unimaginable scale. Like AI or automation, Blockchain has the potential to impact nearly every industry, and the benefits can be utilized without a deep understanding of the tech itself. Global, round-the-clock capital markets are the natural corollary of today's interconnected economy, and Blockchain technology will be the foundation of those markets.

The Bavarian Sea
The Chiemsee is one of the most popular excursion destinations in the Munich region. And that's no wonder, because at Bavaria's largest lake, you can not only do water sports, relax at the beach or take a bike tour, but also experience a lot of culture from Seeon Monastery to Schloss Herrenchiemsee.
The Chiemsee at a glance: Sights & things to know
The Chiemsee is one of the most popular destinations in the Munich region. With an area of about 80 km² and a depth of 73 meters, it is not only the largest lake in Bavaria and the third largest in Germany, but also one of the cleanest swimming lakes. The lake was created about 10,000 years ago, towards the end of the Ice Age. Originating from the earlier glaciers, there are still many smaller lakes, rivers and moors in the area, especially in the southern and northern part of the Chiemsee – such as near Eggstätt-Hemhofer lake plain, one of the oldest nature reserves in Bavaria, or Kendlmühlfilze high moor.
The majority of the Chiemsee shoreline is natural, but there are also numerous lidos, bathing spots and villages. The most famous are Prien am Chiemsee, Seeon, Bernau, Übersee and Chieming. Water sports enthusiasts also like to gather at the beautiful lake in the Chiemgau Alps, as they can go sailing, rent stand-up paddles, do kayaking or canoeing, kiteboarding, surfing, or even rafting on the Tiroler Ache (river). Ashore, too, there is a lot to be explored – the lake has a circumference of 64 kilometres and can easily be circumnavigated by bike or on foot.
What makes the Chiemsee so special: In addition to beautiful nature and a variety of water sports, the popular destination boasts a wide cultural offering. Herrenchiemsee Palace, also known as "little Versailles", is located on Herreninsel, one of two islands on the lake that can be visited year-round. In its immediate neighbourhood is the smaller Fraueninsel with the Frauenwörth Monastery. Both destinations can be conveniently reached by boat. In winter, when the ice on the lake is thick enough, you can even walk to the islands.
Swimming at the Chiemsee: Beaches & swimming spots
And in summer, the lake is a magnet for swimming fans – after all, it's not called "the Bavarian Sea" for nothing. For one thing, the water here is of consistently high quality, and for another, the Chiemsee is pleasantly warm: Between June and September, the lake has an average temperature of between 20 and 23 degrees, while, in the hot season, the water temperature can rise to 26 degrees. Not least because of its good water quality, the lake has been under nature protection since 1954, as many endangered bird species breed here. Swimming is allowed at the designated bathing areas and beaches – such as the beach at Chieming, Bernau, Breitbrunn, Seebruck, Gollenshausen, the Beach Bar in Übersee or the numerous public bathing spots.
Herrenchiemsee Palace, Fraueninsel & Seeon Monastery
If you go to the Chiemsee, you definitely should not miss Herrenchiemsee Palace: The magnificent building was commissioned by King Ludwig II and modelled on Versailles – as was the palace garden, which was planned by the court garden director Carl von Effner. Regrettably, the Bavarian "Kini" only resided here for about ten days, before he died in an accident at Starnberger See (lake) in the summer of 1886. Today, visitors can admire the magnificent interiors on a guided tour. Highlights in the castle include the Hall of Mirrors, the marble staircase and "Tischlein deck dich," a retractable dining table. Herreninsel is the largest island on the Chiemsee and can only be reached by ship or boat. These run regularly and with direct connections from Prien am Chiemsee (15 minutes) and Bernau (23 minutes).
If you feel like visiting Fraueninsel afterwards, you can ferry across in just ten minutes. The small neighbouring island has its very unique charm: One of the main attractions on the car- and bike-free island is the pilgrimage site Kloster Frauenwörth, the oldest nunnery in Germany. Here, you can sit comfortably in the beautiful beer garden, explore the island on a walk or visit the Christkindlmarkt in winter.
Another very famous site is monastery Seeon a few kilometres north of the Chiemsee. The former Benedictine abbey is now used as a cultural and educational centre of the district of Upper Bavaria and a conference hotel. Furthermore, it regularly hosts cultural events such as concerts, exhibitions and readings. On a guided tour, you can gain an insight into the Benedictine monastery at your leisure.
Circumnavigating the Chiemsee: By bike or bus
Sporty cyclists or e-bike fans choose the almost 60-kilometre Chiemsee cycle path, which leads along unpaved roads, asphalt cycle tracks and side roads. The path not only follows part of the shoreline, but is also one of the most beautiful cycle paths in Bavaria with great viewpoints overlooking the Herreninsel and Fraueninsel islands or the mountains. If that's not enough, you can also take a multi-day tour around the region or opt for a road bike route. The Chiemsee circular route, a cycle path running directly along the water, requires a more leisurely pace, as this tour is shared with pedestrians at times. Chiemseeringlinie, a bus that circles the lake several times a day, offers barrier-free travel.
Travelling to the Chiemsee: Coming from Munich
If you want to travel to the Chiemsee by car, take the A8 highway in the direction of Salzburg. It usually takes about an hour to get to Prien. The road that passes close to the southern Chiemsee is particularly beautiful. A more sustainable and convenient alternative is to travel by train with Deutsche Bahn or Meridian: This way, you can reach Prien in less than an hour and then continue by boat, bus, bike, the Chiemsee train or on foot. For a day trip with a maximum of five people, the Bayern Ticket or the Guten Tag Ticket are worthwhile.

After having purchased your home theater components it is time to take them out of their boxes and get them connected so that your system is up and ready to go. Home theater wiring can often intimidate the first time owner, though by following a few simple guidelines you should not face much difficulty at all. Obviously, you will need to begin by reading the manual first.
There is no point in simply picking up a screwdriver and diving in, which can often lead to a messy situation. You need to read the home theater wiring installation instructions first so as to get the feel as well as know all that is required well in advance. No doubt, you will be able to get the system connected even without reading the instructions, but the results can often fall well short of perfection.
The next step in home theater wiring is to remember to use the correct gauge wire while performing your installation. If you are connecting items that are at greater distances you will need to use heavier gauge so that the signal is transmitted successfully. In fact, you can remember that for lengths not greater than a hundred feet you can use 16 gauge wire, while for lengths not exceeding 200 feet you should use 14 gauge wire, and anything above these distances would require 12 gauge wires to properly get your home theater wiring right.
Also, never try and do your home theater wiring between components with the system powered on. This may be able to lead to there being sudden high power loads that can end up damaging your home theater components.
Another pitfall that you can learn to avoid while doing your home theater wiring is to ensure that your components are not stacked so close to one another that they have no room to breathe. It is quite common for home theater owners to place all of the components such as receiver, DVD player, as well as the cable box very close to one another, and sometimes even placing them in a closed cabinet. You should ensure that there is plenty of airflow between the components that will make them run more efficiently as well as give better performance while also lasting longer.
Thus, you should have planned ahead and also have had enough time to spare while performing your home theater wiring, which will ensure that you do not face any problems, or get frustrated, and the whole home theater wiring installation passes off smoothly as well as successfully.

Do you ever struggle with discouragement? Do you feel like depression is overwhelming you?
I have experienced severe depression several times in my life. Before I met Jesus, I was chronically depressed. I had no hope in life at all.
But when I met Jesus and began to receive His love for me, and began to grow in Christ with good, Biblical teaching, that chronic depression left.
But I have still dealt with situational depression, even for extended periods of time.
For example, my husband and I have been paying for three pieces of real estate since the market crash of 2008–over 9 years. The first 2.5 years of that situation, I was terribly depressed. With every mortgage payment–which was wasted money in my opinion–I felt like my dreams were going right down the drain.
I didn't understand why God would allow this to happen to us.
I knew it would have been so easy for Him to sell that property! So I began to embrace self-pity… and every time I did, it opened the door wide for demons of depression, discouragement, and suicide to attack me.
I began to hear thoughts in my head saying that I should just end it all, because there was no hope.
Let me be clear that those thoughts are always from the enemy. They are never from God. And I knew that! I rebuked those evil spirits and commanded them to leave me.
But I still embraced self-pity, so the door was open for them, and they didn't stay gone.
BUT GOD! God always has an answer because He always IS the answer!
Every time I have walked through depression and discouragement, He has come through for me. He has always healed me and set me free, even though I've had to walk through some tough stuff.
Are you going through a season of depression right now? If so, would you allow me to share with you the three things that helped me get through–and eventually overcome–the depression I experienced?
1. When depression overwhelms, tell someone everything.
The first time that I was depressed as a Christian, and had those suicidal spirits come against me, I tried to fight it alone for awhile. I was ashamed that I wasn't stronger, and I didn't want people to think less of me!
But eventually, it got so bad that I couldn't handle it anymore.
I wanted to be free from those evil thoughts (that were not my thoughts, but were from the enemy). So I went to an older, wiser friend of mine who was a prayer warrior, and I dumped everything I was going through on her and asked her to pray for me. I was too worn out and discouraged to pray for myself.
So she and another friend prayed for me. They prayed the glory down! God healed me and set me free, and my friends didn't think less of me (because they loved me).
But, the key here is that my friends were able to pray for me because I was honest and transparent… even about the suicidal thoughts. If I hadn't been transparent and asked for prayer for these things, I don't believe it would have been as effective.
So if you are discouraged or depressed right now, please, find someone you can trust, tell them everything, and let them pray for you. You will be glad you did, and they won't think less of you.
2. Pray-read through the Bible.
Taking your sorrows to the the Lord in prayer brings great healing. Every time I have done so, God has met me, comforted me, reassured me, and lifted me up.
But when you're depressed, sometimes it's hard to start praying–or hard to know what to say. That's where pray-reading will help you.
"Pray-reading" means that you read slowly, praying the words back to God as you read them.
When you pray-read through the Bible, the verses help you express yourself to God when you can't find words of your own.
Verses will suddenly come alive for you; they will seem to sum up exactly what you've been feeling. They become your prayer to God.
And as you pray-read through the Bible, God will speak back to you. Verses you pray to God about discouragement will suddenly lead to verses about encouragement that He speaks back to you! You will hear His words of affirmation that He speaks to you. You will feel Him helping you and building you up as you release your cares to Him. He loves you, you know!
Every time I have felt discouraged, hopeless, down in the dumps, or depressed, pray-reading the Bible (particularly the Psalms) has been HUGE in my healing.
3. Put on a contemplative music CD, and let God's presence heal you.
Sometimes we forget to worship at home–at least I do. But the Holy Spirit really uses music and worship to heal us. God makes His presence known when we worship, and then we find fullness of joy in His presence (Psalm 16:11).
I remember one of the times I was most discouraged. I felt so dry and hopeless. I needed my joy back. I needed a reason to go on.
And I don't know how, but somehow God led me to sit in a quiet place and put on Jon Thurlow's CD, Strong Love. I just sat and soaked, and found myself drawing into worship. And by the end of the CD, I was on my face, weeping, laughing, and totally transformed by the presence of God.
God used the music that CD to minister to me in a way that maybe nothing else could. Why? Because worship will set you free.
Put on a good, contemplative worship music CD, and sit down.
Focus your mind's eye on Jesus, and sing/pray the songs to Him.
If you need a good, soaking worship CD, you can listen for free to my three worship CDs here. And if you like instrumental worship, I recommend my solo piano soaking CD, Keys of David. Listen to previews here; it transports me into worship every time I listen to it!
Whenever I put on a worship album and soak, at the end of an hour-long worship set–or even 30 minutes–I feel transformed!
Precious reader, are you depressed or discouraged?
If so, don't give up hope. God loves you and has a good plan for your life. He wants to help you right now. So tell someone everything. Pray-read through the Bible. Get alone with God and worship, and let the Holy Spirit heal you.
If you will do these things, I believe the Lord will bring you great healing too.
Does this post speak to your heart? If so, please leave a comment below. I'd love to hear from you!

Thank you for reading, as always, Renee!
Thank you for your pray-read the Bible, I agree fully with you. As I read the verse when I opened the Bible, HE seems to know my trouble that I have in my heart and what I am asking HIM. Even going to church and I received the sermon that I needed most about my situation. I trust HE is at my side and hear my cry to seek HIM.
I always seek GOD first and I trust that all this thing shall be added on to me, Hallelujah !
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I empathize with your situation and I am sorry you are going through this. I wish I could take away your hurt myself… I know how awful depression is. However, I cannot agree with you on some things above. I thought about not saying anything about it, but I want to point you toward hope if I can.
The thorn in the flesh that Paul wrote about, according to some Greek scholars like Rick Renner, was probably people that were bothersome to Paul… and even if it could have been a sickness, we know that it was not from the Lord. That would be the complete antithesis of what the Father sent Jesus for, since Jesus paid the price for our healing. The will of God in every situation is "Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven" (Matthew 6:10). And we know that Heaven is a place of perfection and beauty, where God wipes away our tears. It is His will for you to be completely and totally healed.
I know sometimes we pray, and even fast and anoint with oil, but our healing still doesn't come instantly like we would like it to. I've been praying for healing for my eyes for many years, and my eyes haven't been healed yet. But still, the Word of God is true. The price Jesus paid is completely sufficient for my healing, and for forgiveness of my sin, and for my abundant life… and yours too. If that weren't true, then the Bible would be a lie and there would be no Gospel.
But we know the Word of God is true. I don't know why healing doesn't come instantaneously in every case, but I do know that our Daddy God is a good Father who gives only good and perfect gifts to His children. Does He occasionally put terrible judgments on His enemies? Yes, Scripture records several times in which He did that. But never to His children who are in right standing with Him.
Beth, I know you are hurting and I'm sorry. I don't know why God hasn't completely healed you of depression yet. But I do know, from many years of depression myself, that God's Word heals, renews, and restores our minds. And I do know that God is faithful, and that as you continue to come to Him in prayer and hide His Word in your heart, that He will continue to transform your life. I wish I could make it better for you right away, but I can't… but God can make every moment better for you as you come to Him moment by moment. And even if it's over time, you will still find that God sends His Word to heal you (Psalm 107:20).
There's nothing wrong with taking medication or going to counseling, as long as the counseling is Biblical. God often heals using doctors, just as He did in Scripture. (Even Jesus said, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick" (Mark 2:17). But still, the fact remains that Jesus healed ALL who were sick and oppressed by the devil (Acts 10:38). We may not have reached His standard yet, in that we haven't gotten to the point where every person we pray for is healed in that moment, but that doesn't make His example any less valid. His standard is the only one going after. So even while we hurt, we can still go after Him and know that He will be faithful to heal us… even if it's one day at a time.
Please hang in there, precious sister. You are greatly beloved of the Lord, and I know our Daddy wants to touch your mind and lift you up moment by moment, day by day, breath by breath. He wants you to experience everything that Jesus died to give you–life, health, and abundance of resurrection power. I am glad He has helped you thus far, and I know He will continue to take care of you. I pray that He would continue to encourage you this very day.
Thank you for reading my blog. I will join with you in prayer for healing, and I believe our Daddy will continue to minister to you and bless you.
Hi Jamie, this is my first time reading your blog ever. I am a 26 year old male (wow, I'm 26 already) who's been struggling with anxiety and depression for the past few months. I can't really tell when it started, but I know that it was a result of me worrying about issues of this world (job, marriage, reputation etc).
I must say that as I am reading through your posts all I can sense is love and genuine compassion for your fellow brethren. I cannot express enough how I appreciate how insistent you are on the fact that anxiety and depression are never God's will. I appreciate your loving reply/response to Beth, I hope it is received as well as it is meant. I am a firm believer in God's constant willingness to heal His sons. I know without a shadow of doubt that even now God wants me healed and free from anxiety and depression than I want it for myself. He wants what's best for me, more than I do.
Thank you so much for being bold enough to communicate this to your readers. I am going through one of the toughest times in my life right now, but I feel encouraged not to focus on the situation but instead to force my eyes, ears, mind and actions to concentrate on God's faithfulness and kindness.
Have you heard of John G. Lake Ministries? After reading and understanding your stance on God's willingness to heal us I am convienced that you will only be sharpened by brother Curry R. Blakes teching titled 'Divine Healing Technician'…PLEASE SEARCH FOR THE TITLE ON YOUTUBE.
Again, thank you. I am currently learning to put one foot after the other. My biggest challenge right now is changing my thought patterns ( I also experience God healing me from moment to moment). Can you (any one reading this who believes in the divine healing power of God) pray for me to learn to focus my thoughts on Christ and every promise that is made available to me through Him. I am learning that He is everything.
Your such a blessing. I just read about deer so. pression. I've always been happy the last 8 years unreal. But, Holy Ghost has kept me and by reading your prayer over my unjust situation it's my last resort I'm exhausted from the stalking and harassment like you said find a prayer warrior. Mine is in heaven I loved her so. Please pray I'm 62 I just wanna go home. If you go to stalkersbeware.com this is where I learned what's going on in my life. Many others are but don't know what it is. Thanks for listening may God richly BlessYou.
This post described perfectly what I'm going through. I've been fighting this situational depression for over a year now but I think it's gotten worse over the past month. Just this past Sunday I sat in my room and was bombarded with the suicidal thoughts. The problem is I don't have any friends to talk to about this. My work schedule messes with my ability to attend church services which I know is making this depression even worse. I have no one in my life who is a prayer warrior, let alone a Christian. I journal my thoughts, feelings, and prayers but nothing seems to help which is hard because I'm so used to hearing God's voice and right now it feels as if He's silent. The words I wrote just two days ago say, "I feel so alone God. I'm bombarded with the thoughts of 'will I ever good enough? Do I even matter? Will I be stuck in this place forever? Does anybody even care? Will I ever make it through?' Oh God I am crying out to you but you just seem so far away. The darkness surrounds me blinding me to your truth. Speak to me. Hear my cries. I need you because I feel alone. So alone. And in these moments of loneliness I contemplate my life's worth thinking I should just end it all." So your post is pretty timely. I guess maybe I'm asking if you could pray for me. It'd be nice to know and feel like I matter enough to have someone pray for me. I don't know how I got to this place but I do know I struggling to get out of it.
Then God led me back to Him and I am getting better and better each day.
Hang in there.God loves you.
Thank you Jamie. I love to read your messages. Each one is biblical and carries spirit strength. I am registered for your meeting in Chattanooga in July. I registered by faith believing God for making a way. I am praying for you and support your ministry when I can. God bless you.
Hi Jamie, I wanted to give you a little encouragement today. I wanted to let you know every time I read your articles like this one on depression helps me a lot to know that I am not the only one who suffers with depression. You also give me practical ways to apply what you are conveying. I needed this because I was so discouraged that I just had enough and tried to end my life which lead to 10 days of hospitalization at a mental institution. By the grace of God I am still here. i have suffered with depression for a very long time. I finally got the right diagnoses and now I am on medications which are working for me. Praise God. If anyone on this site relate I need people in my life like you. Because I go to a very small church because I love my pastor so and sh is a woman. I have nothing against men they some times do not know how to relate to women if they have issues themselves. God Bless everyone.
Thank you for this encouraging message. I was feeling lost and emoty and it brought hope in my life. Now I know that God is near me and walking with me always.
I first read your post about It's an intense season for asking and I thought I am going to claim this word for myself and mostly for my parents who need a miracle at this time in their lives. Their health problems have sent me in a situational depression and I am struggling to have hope. I responded to your email after I first joined the group to tell you things about myself.
Did you realise ads come up in the middle of your blog and one of them was advertising a medium.
No, definitely not! I have blocked all such ads, but sometimes one gets through my ad provider. If you see anything like that, I would appreciate it ever so much if you would please click the "report ad" button and report it as offensive/inappropriate/etc so my ad provider will see it. I have never seen such an ad personally, but I will watch for it and report it if I see one. Thank you for your help!!
Jamie, thanks for your writing. Please never stop. I'm in my early twenties and have dealt with depression in the past. After finishing my first year of law school, it's been particularly bad and I've been having panic attacks. I've felt trapped, anxious about when the next one would happen. I was feeling anxious when I thought I'd see if anyone could tell me how Yahweh (I use the original Hebrew name for God) could help when I stumbled across your posts. I already feel His healing and will try to do what you've suggested. I know I've grown weak in my faith and want to get stronger again. Thanks so much for this and please pray for me! All the best to you.
I just recently suffered the same thing; anxiety with the symptoms, random panic attacks, and recently depression. I felt that the lord led me to this sight for encouragement, faith, and hope in him. Thank you for this article and my job (respiratory therapist) requires me to on my feet on all times and currently I am taking medical leave so I can seek the lord more and be healed through his will. Please pray for me as well. TY.
I just kinda "stumbled onto this place, and have dealt with depression a good portion of my life; I had never heard of "pray-reading " the Word, before, but eager to try it, as so much of the time when depressed, unable to concentrate on much and struggle reading it. I have been looking for a way to stay closer to Papa, and maybe this will help…. thanks!
Is loosing our mind feelings and thought is that depression or something else???
Your webblog has been such a blessing to me these past couple of weeks.
I've been a christian for 4 months now and am struggeling quite a bit with getting used to my new life (Its quite alot to take in). I'm the only christian in my family and don't have that many people I can ask for help so I'm mostly getting to know God by myself. He's been helping me alot and I'm super thankful to Him! Lately, I've been feeling really confused and thrown of guard. Not even understanding my own feelings well. I'm doing all that I can to hang in there despite what the world around me says. Anyway, I just wanted to say that your blog has been helping me out alot and it always encouraged me on difficult days. God bless you!
Hi, Anne Sofie! I'm so glad to meet you. Congratulations on giving your life to Jesus! It's the best decision you will ever make. Jesus loves you so very much. Have you asked Him to baptize you with His Spirit and fire? That is a wonderful and important step to take as well. You can read more about that here, with my personal story about it here, and you are welcome to ask me questions anytime!

Reporting formalities
Maritime Single Window
The Directive 2010/16 requires that European States have a Maritime Single Window for reporting to be done electronically and once only. When a sea vessel calls at a port, its agents and operators are required by the authorities to lodge a number of reports concerning, for example, the ship, the journey, the goods, the passengers and the crew. This happens both on arrival and on departure from a seaport in the European Union. These reporting formalities are imposed by local, national, European and international bodies. This reporting is currently still being done in various formats (paper, fax) and thus represents a huge administrative burden, especially for the shipping agent.
One-time and electronic
From 1 June 2015, the FAL or reporting Directive requires that every European Member State has a Maritime Single Window so that these reports are sent electronically and once only. The advantages are: – all reports are done electronically – duplicate reports are avoided This Directive does not impose any new reporting but merely asserts that existing reports are done electronically so that information can be shared between authorities. Approach in Belgium The Belgian authorities have chosen to adapt existing computer systems. This solution has the most added value for both the public and the private partners who continue to use the trusted port system.

Q: The modulo two sum sign in LaTeX I would like to know how I can obtain the 'modulo two sum' sign (unicode 2A0A i.e., the letter sigma with a circle in its middle).

I know I can obtain it by using the unicode-math package. But does anybody know an alternative method to obtain it? For information, I use TexMaker. Thanks for answering me. Best regards.

        {\constructosum{-0.15ex}{0.03}{\scriptscriptstyle}}
    }\displaylimits
}

This defines four operators corresponding to display style math environments, inline math, script size math and script script size math in that order. Each has a coordinate for the loop which may be adjusted, and a size for the loop. For example the display style version has
\constructosum{-0.3ex}{0.1}{\displaystyle}

which places the loop at -0.3ex (moves it horizontally backwards a bit) with a radius of 0.1cm. To use it, simply use the new operator \modtwosum inside any math environment. e.g.
\[
G=\modtwosum_a^b H
\]

A demo of this operator in each of the four situations that may occur:

Thanks goes to egreg for pointing out that I could reduce the original version of this with a helper \newcommand to contain the TikZ code.

A: The fdsymbol package provides this symbol as \osum or \modtwosum:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fdsymbol}
\begin{document}
$\modtwosum$
\end{document}

Result:

However, this changes the math font of your whole document. If that's not what you want, you can just import this single symbol without loading fdsymbol:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\DeclareFontFamily{U}{FdSymbolE}{}
\DeclareFontShape{U}{FdSymbolE}{m}{n}{
    <-7.1> s * [1.0] FdSymbolE-Book
    <7.1-> s * [1.0] FdSymbolE-Book
}{}
\DeclareFontShape{U}{FdSymbolE}{b}{n}{
    <-7.1> s * [1.0] FdSymbolE-Medium
    <7.1-> s * [1.0] FdSymbolE-Medium
}{}
\DeclareSymbolFont{fdlargesymbols}{U}{FdSymbolE}{m}{n}
\SetSymbolFont{fdlargesymbols}{bold}{U}{FdSymbolE}{b}{n}
\DeclareMathSymbol{\tosum}{\mathop}{fdlargesymbols}{"3A}
\DeclareMathSymbol{\dosum}{\mathop}{fdlargesymbols}{"3B}
\makeatletter
\def\modtwosum{\DOTSB\tosum\slimits@}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
$\modtwosum$
\end{document}

A: If you find no other alternative, then perhaps this will work. You'll need to use the mathtools package. Use the following declaration in your preamble:
\DeclareMathOperator*{\osum}{\mathrlap{\hspace{1ex}\circ}{\sum}}

Now you can use the new \osum operator, and it'll behave like the usual \sum operator with respect to subscripts and superscripts.
G=\osum_a^b H

cfg: This directory contains the basic TICS configuration. The %TICS% (for Windows) and $TICS (for Linux/Solaris) environment variables refer to the location of this directory. A detailed overview of all files in this directory can be found here.
bin: This directory contains all TICS framework binaries. Its location can be found in the TICSBIN.txt file in the cfg directory.
chk: This directory contains all code checkers used by the TICS framework. It is located ../chk relative to the cfg or bin directories. This location can be overridden via the TICSCHK.txt file in the cfg directory. The contents of this file differs per installation. It may contain tools such as pmd (open source Java code checker), TICSc (TIOBE's C code checker) and C++test (commercial C++ code checker).
rules: This directory contains all individual rules of the used code checkers (in case these are distributed separately). It is located in the directory ../rules relative to the chk directory. For example all rules of C++test are usually stored here as .rule files.
The TICS viewer is configured at a different location: <WEBSERVER>/settings/. A more detailed description of this directory can be found here.
The ARCHIVE.txt is used by TICSQServer to determine what files need to be stored in the quality database. It contains boolean expressions that are evaluated against each file encountered on the file system. See the ARCHIVE Reference Page for more information on specifying the contents of ARCHIVE files. Note that the ARCHIVE.txt file doesn't need to have this name, but it is best to use this name or a variant of this such as ARCHIVE-project1.txt or ARCHIVE-project2.txt to better understand what it contains.
This file contains a redefinition of the default way TICS calculates paths for files. Usually the TICS way of calculating unique paths suffices, but in case there are symbolic links or other complex ways of maintaining code archives, this file may be needed.
This is a file that is used by TICS internally to determine whether a configuration update is needed.
The IMPL.txt file contains the implementation for each supported coding standard rule. For each rule, the following fields are given: the rule id, the tool (static code checker) that is used to implement the rule and the internal representation for the rule's implementation (this is in terms of the tool that implements the rule). Some of the rules may take another file as argument, e.g. to specify the allowed the copyright statements. These extra files are also located in the codingstandards/<language>/ directory.
An empty line (or a line containing only white space).
A comment line (a line starting with //).
An include directive of the form include path to other IMPL file.
Empty lines and comment lines are ignored.
rule ID Name of the rule as used in the coding standard. This name must have a matching name in the RULES.txt.
tool Name of the static analyzer tool that is used to check this rule. The name must match one of the tool names in the TOOLS property in the SERVER.txt file.
implementation ID Name that identifies the implementation for the tool. The syntax of the name is tool specific and this name must match the pattern given by the value corresponding to the tool in the TOOLS property in the SERVER.txt file.
The RULES.txt file contains the coding standard information. For each rule the rule ID (from the coding standard document), level (the severity of the rule), category and synopsis are specified.
rule ID Name of the rule as used in the coding standard.
level A level that indicates the severity of the rule. Here 1 has the highest severity. Higher levels indicate lower severity. As many levels as is desired can be distinguished (i.e., there is no hard upper limit).
category The category to which the coding rule belongs. As many categories as is desirable may be defined.
synopsis The rule's synopsis from the coding standard document.
The RULES.txt file must at least have an entry for each rule ID occurring in the IMPL.txt file.
The IMPL.txt file contains the implementation for each supported compiler warning. For each warning, the following fields are given: the rule id, the tool (compiler) that checks the warning and the internal representation for the warning's implementation (this is in terms of the compiler that implements the warning).
rule ID Name of the compiler warning. This name must have a matching name in the RULES.txt.
tool Name of the used compiler. The name must match one of the tool names in the TOOLS property in the SERVER.txt file.
The RULES.txt file contains the compiler warning information. For each warning the rule ID, level (the severity of the warning), category and synopsis are specified.
rule ID Name of the compiler warning.
level A level that indicates the severity of the warning. Here 1 has the highest severity. Higher levels indicate lower severity. As many levels as is desired can be distinguished (i.e., there is no hard upper limit).
category The category to which the compiler warning belongs. As many categories as is desirable may be defined.
The RULES.txt file must at least have an entry for each compiler warning ID occurring in the IMPL.txt file.
Languages that require preprocessing and have macros that can be used as functions and identifiers in source text may require that expansions of such macros be ignored by the code checker. Potential violations by such macros can be silently suppressed by specifying a line in DEFINES.txt containing the name of the macro and a list of rules that should be suppressed for occurrences of the macro.
wildcard ::= rule | * | rule with parts replaced by * or ?
Empty lines and lines starting with // are ignored.
For macros with leading or trailing *, a suffix resp, prefix match is performed on identifiers in the source code. E.g., ENUM* matches all identifiers starting with ENUM. And *STRUCT matches all identifiers ending with STRUCT.
A macro of the form /*...*/ is a comment that is to be matched exactly to comments in the source file.
For rules, each * and ? is expanded to all matching rules.
The contents of this file has the same format as DEFINES.txt except that the contents is only taken into account for those input files that belong to the associated project. The file need not exist for a project. The project must match one of the projects from the PROJECTS property in the SERVER.txt.
This is the TICS license file.
This is a file to configure so called organizational views in the TICS viewer. More details can be found here.
This file contains preprocessor directives for the associated compiler. Usually, the file contains non-ANSI constructs that must be defined away, or macros, identifiers and functions that must be redefined. The compiler must be one of the compilers mentioned in one of the BUILDTYPE properties of the SERVER.txt.
If the input is known to be strict standards conforming, this file may remain empty (although it must exist).
The PROJECTS.txt is the configuration file that contains all project specific options. For more details on the PROJECTS.txt configuration options see the PROJECTS.txt Reference Page.
The SERVER.txt is the global configuration file and contains all options related to location of source code, build environments, SCM tooling, analyzers used, language mapping and some miscellaneous options. For more details on the SERVER.txt configuration options see the SERVER.txt Reference Page.
These Perl modules overrule the default TICS Perl modules that are part of the official TICS distribution. Try to keep the number of these custom modules as low as possible.
This file contains one line referring to the directory in which the TICS binaries can be found. This may be an absolute or relative path. By changing the contents of this file, a complete TICS installation (client and server) can be upgraded at once.
This file contains one line referring to the directory in which the TICS checkers can be found. This may be an absolute or relative path. By changing the contents of this file, the code checkers location can be changed to a shared, central location for example.

Explore the insights about our second webinar for data providers on technical openness
You can watch the recording and consult the speakers´ slides on data.europa academy.
On Friday 21 October, the webinar 'Understanding open data: technical openness' took place. This webinar was the second of a series of trainings organised by data.europa.eu academy to support data providers in the data publishing process. Specifically, this webinar focused on the need for open data to be technically open, i.e., freely accessible and available in non-proprietary and machine-readable formats.
From a technical perspective, openness can also be described according to degrees, following Tim Berners-Lee´s 5-Stars Model, with the first degree meaning that data is available on the web under open license and the fifth degree where data is linked to other data. A good degree level to start with is three stars, making data available in non-proprietary format. Appropriate formats are CSV, JSON, XML, RDF, while PDF, DOCX, ODT, PNG, GIF, JPG/JPEG, TIFF, DOC, XLS should rather be avoided.
To overcome a low technical openness, which can often be due to a lack of time and/or knowledge on the side of the data publishers, it is essential to introduce data management in the organisation. From a strategic perspective, this means:
Creating a clear and functioning data governance framework that touches upon data quality, maintenance, privacy, and compliance;
Defining concrete tasks, responsibilities, and roles;
Building competences among employees, starting from the recommendations for delivering high-quality data contained in the Data Quality Guidelines by the Publications Office of the European Union.
From an operational level, data needs to be carefully prepared before publication. This means using an interactive and agile process to explore, combine, clean, and transform raw data into curated, high-quality datasets.
Complementary to these tips, Jakub Klímek (External expert at the Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic) shared his lessons learned regarding the technical and cross-cutting layers of open data publication, including:
Motivation to publish - ´Good open data publication is rewarded by usage of the data` which produces further benefits for all;
Distribution design (i.e., bulk download, API etc.), taking into consideration that ´there is no single best format for every case, so there may be a need for multiple formats`;
Web technologies used, such as HTTPS, IPv4 and IPv&, CORS etc.;
Cataloguing, in order to make the catalogue readable and harvestable also by other data catalogues;
Processing the feedback of both ´power users` (more expert and engaged data consumers) and novices or potential users;
Evaluating the data after publication.
Throughout the webinar, the audience had the chance to ask questions and interact with the speakers. If you are also curious to know which kind of data is ´for the general public`, whether content negotiation is recommended, and what types of data formats best allow technical openness of image data, watch the recording and consult the speakers´ slides on the ´Learning corner for data providers`.
In the corner you can also find the latest updates on the webinars to follow, among which the webinar for data providers on ´Understanding open data: legal openness` that will take place on Friday, 18 November 2022 at 10.00 – 11.30 CET.
