Hebreërs 13:6 Daarom kan ons met alle vrymoedigheid sê: Die Here is vir my ‘n Helper, en ek sal nie vrees nie; wat sal ‘n mens aan my doen?
Here’s a look back at some dos and don’ts that show why spending a Saturday night with your sweetheart during the ’50s was the cat’s meow. MAKING THE FIRST MOVE: Apparently, guys were supposed to ask out girls—only “floozies” ask guys out on a date first. RESPOND QUICKLY: When someone asks you out, you’re supposed to give an immediate answer to be polite. With today’s online dating, not responding could mean you’re ghosting someone. Not sure what that means? NO EXCUSES: Never break a date without providing a valid reason. Not interested in meeting up with someone? You’re going to have to come up with something better than having to pet sit for your friend. BE ON TIME: Women should never be late to a date. When dates arrive, you should be ready to go. That was a rule decades ago. MEET THE PARENTS: Getting introduced to your girlfriend’s parents can be a pretty big step in a relationship. In the ’50s, though, it was customary for girls to introduce all dates to their parents first. APPLYING MAKEUP: Before you left for a date is when you should be putting on makeup. Primping in public was a big no-no. DON’T PLACE YOUR ORDER: If your date took you out to eat, it was ladylike to tell him what you wanted for dinner so he could order it for you. Sound ridiculous? WHO PAYS? Why, men of course. If a woman tried to pay for a date in the 1950s, it would be humiliating to guys. DON’T WAIT: Procrastinating on asking a girl out was one of the worst things a guy could do when he was dating. RING THE BELL: Sending an “I’m here” text didn’t exist in the ’50s. When a man picked up his date, he was supposed to go to the front door of her house to call for her. Honking the car horn from the driveway was also considered poor form. HAVE A WATCH: After meeting the parents before a date, guys were supposed to ask the girl’s parents when they wanted her back home. Having a working watch was the best way to make sure you didn’t bring her back too late, especially if you wanted a second date. DON HER COAT: If you wanted to show your date how polite you were, you would help her put on her coat. It would be extra special if you offered her your coat when she didn’t have one.

OPEN THE DOOR: Real gentlemen open car doors for ladies. Really, men are supposed to open any door for their date and let them walk in first. CURB IT: Chivalry might not be considered dead if men still walked between their date and the curb of the sidewalk. Though you weren’t born in the ’50s. BE LOADED: With money, that is OK, so maybe being rich wasn’t a dating rule in the ’50s. However, men were expected to bring enough money along so that the woman didn’t have to pay for anything. NO KISSING: On the first date at least! BRING THE CORSAGE: On prom night, you better not forget the corsage in the fridge! Now that would be embarrassing.
Ons is mos mooi grootgemaak... As ek sê mooi grootgemaak, bedoel ek nie "dankie en asseblief nie", dit moet met moedersmelk insink. Jy mag nie jouself prys nie en jy mag nie sê jy is goed nie, dan is jy voor op die wa of "bragerig" soos my Ma sou sê. Maar, ons mag ook nie vertel van ons mislukkings nie. Nou hoe nou! Ek lees van Saul... Kop en skouers groter as enige van sy landgenote, mooiste man in die land… (voor Dawid groot geword het en vir hom 'n bedryging geword het), en hy het hierdie massiewe minderwaardigheidskompleks wat hom op die ou end sy Koningskap gekos het. Wie kweek dit, ons word tog nie met dit gebore nie? En ek besef, dit is die voorbeelde wat ons uitleef. Ons bepaal die standaarde en as jy nie aan die standaard voldoen nie, is jy nie 'n goeie Christen nie en jy is nie op die A lys van my gaste nie ens. ens. Ek besef toe, jy kan in 'n Kasteel bly en 'n boemelaar met 'n "attitude" gaan jou laat minderwaardig voel.... Wie sê die Here Jesus is ek? Uniek, in elke opsig… en as ek het om aan te trek en het om te eet, moet ek vergenoegsaam wees… So ek steek nou soos Barbara Johnson 'n veer in my hoed en kweek 'n "attitude"... Mooi naweek vir almal. 3

Pizza fit for a queen The Margherita pizza was created in 1889, when Queen Margherita of Savoy visited Naples, according to the owners of Brandi Trattoria in Port Chester, New York. In honor of the queen, Chef Raffaele Esposito and his wife created a pizza resembling the Italian flag and its colors; red (tomato), white (mozzarella), and green (basil). Later that same year, Queen Margherita penned a letter identifying Brandi Pizzeria as the originator of the Margherita Pizza. Brandi Pizzeria in Naples is still in operation today and Brandi Trattoria in Port Chester is its first official outpost in the U.S. 5
Brooke Nelson Hint: It’s not what you’re wearing!
You already know that making a good first impression can go a long way. But forget all the advice you’ve received about dressing to impress or putting on a cheesy smile. Turns out, the true secret to building a lasting connection reaches much deeper than what you wear. According to Amy Cuddy, a Harvard Business School professor who has researched first impressions for more than 15 years, everyone (consciously or subconsciously) asks two questions when they meeting someone new: Can I trust this person? And can I respect this person? Both questions help you measure a person’s warmth and competence, respectively. But, Cuddy says, you should put gaining your peers’ trust over winning their respect—even in a workplace setting. “If someone you’re trying to influence doesn’t trust you, you’re not going to get very far; in fact, you might even elicit suspicion because you come across as manipulative,” Cuddy wrote in her book Presence: Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges. “A warm, trustworthy person who is also strong elicits admiration, but only after you’ve established trust does your strength become a gift rather than a threat.” But that’s not the only way you can start off on the right foot with a stranger. Your physical appearance matters, too. A 2017 study by psychologist Leslie Zebrowitz of Brandeis University found that people use four cues to judge your face: babyfacedness, familiarity, fitness, and emotional resemblance. While you can’t control all of these factors, you can improve your “emotional resemblance” by using body language that builds trust naturally. The bottom line: The next time you meet someone new, focus on gaining their trust—not winning them over with a firm handshake. You’ll want to know the other unexpected ways people are judging you, too.

Jaroldeen Edwards A field of flowers opens one woman’s eyes to the world of the possible
It was a bleak, rainy day, and I had no desire to drive up the winding mountain road to my daughter Carolyn’s house. But she had insisted that I come see something at the top of the mountain. So here I was, reluctantly making the two-hour journey through fog that hung like veils. By the time I saw how thick it was near the summit, I’d gone too far to turn back. Nothing could be worth this, I thought as I inched along the perilous highway. “I’ll stay for lunch, but I’m heading back down as soon as the fog lifts,” I announced when I arrived. “But I need you to drive me to the garage to pick up my car,” Carolyn said. “Could we at least do that?” “How far is it?” I asked. “About three minutes,” she said. “I’ll drive—I’m used to it.” After ten minutes on the mountain road, I looked at her anxiously. “I thought you said three minutes.” She grinned. “This is a detour.” Turning down a narrow track, we parked the car and got out. We walked along a path that was thick with old pine needles. Huge black--green evergreens towered over us. Gradually, the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind. Then we turned a corner and stopped—and I gasped in amazement. From the top of the mountain, sloping for several acres across folds and valleys, were rivers of daffodils in radiant bloom. A profusion of color—from the palest ivory to the deepest lemon to the most vivid salmon—blazed like a carpet before us. It looked as though the sun had tipped over and spilled gold down the mountainside. At the center cascaded a waterfall of purple hyacinths. Here and there were coral-colored tulips. And as if this bonanza were not enough, western bluebirds frolicked over the heads of the daffodils, their tawny breasts and sapphire wings like a flutter of jewels. A riot of questions filled my mind. Who created such beauty? Why? How? As we approached the home that stood in the center of the property, we saw a sign that read: “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking. ”The first answer was: “One Woman—Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.” The second was: “One at a Time.” The third: “Started in 1958.” As we drove home, I was so moved by what we had seen, I could scarcely speak. “She changed the world,” I finally said, “one bulb at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.” The wonder of it would not let me go. “Imagine,” I said, “if I’d had a vision and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have accomplished?” Carolyn looked at me sideways, smiling. “Start tomorrow,” she said. “Better yet, start today.”

Small sounds can still make a big noise when you use a good sound conductor. Experiment with a balloon, compressed air and your own ears to find out how it works and the science behind it. What you'll need: Balloon Instructions: 1. Blow up the balloon. 2. Hold the balloon close to your ear while you tap lightly on the other side. What's happening? Despite you only tapping lightly on the balloon your ears can hear the noise loudly. When you blew up the balloon you forced the air molecules inside the balloon closer to each other. Because the air molecules inside the balloon are closer together, they become a better conductor of sound waves than the ordinary air around you. 10

Oreos: Use tray for milk 13
By Connie Suggitt
https://youtu.be/vGn-VGYkwF4
Watching Star Wars as a seven-year-old has inspired a British engineer to create a two-tonne robot that has walked into the record books. Matt Denton, from Hampshire (UK) has now built the Largest rideable hexapod robot, which measures 2.8 m x 5 m (and weighs almost two tonnes. Seeing the four-legged AT-AT robots in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back struck a chord with the young Matt who has seen his animatronics career come full circle; from building small models at home he’s gone on to work on Harry Potter and, appropriately, Star Wars while his hexapod has made it into Guinness World Records 2019. The hexapod robot, called Mantis, can be driven from inside its cockpit or operated remotely by Wi-Fi, and its 1.9 tonnes of bulk is powered by a 2.2-litre Perkins turbo diesel engine, allowing it to walk at a top speed of just over 1 km/hr. It boasts 18 degrees of freedom via two three-axis joysticks and 28 buttons, and has a Linux PC as its 'brain'. The Linux PC uses HexEngine software to control the movements each leg; the unit receives commands from the hexapod’s Operator Interface and sends feedback. Construction: Building of the hexapod robot begun back in 2009 after Matt had built more than 20 smaller hexapod machines with various shapes and made from different materials. Most were fewer than 50 cm in diameter. His expertise with hexapods saw Matt go on to work with animatronics engineer Joshua Lee on the Harry Potter films, where one of his hexapods was turned into a sixlegged tortoise! Matt then received investment to build a 200-tonne hexapod for underwater use. He produced the current 1.9tonne version to “road test” the problems he'd face with the 200-tonne version. But scaling up from machines a foot or so across to 9 ft was no easy feat. Mantis has taken three years to build and is continuously being upgraded. Indeed, this is the second version of Matt’s efforts, the MK II. The previous MK I model (a year-and-a-half in the making) had mechanical problems, particularly issues with the hydraulic systems, as soon as it stood up. Producing hydraulics systems for a machine of that size was one of the biggest challenges Matt faced. "I had very little experience with hydraulics, but had to figure out how the engine, hydraulic pump and tank would work together," Matt explained. Just think: a JCB digger has one arm, but Mantis has six, meaning six times the flow and six times the cooling capacity. "I had to become an expert in multiple areas, so I spent a lot of evenings reading!" Inspiration: Matt’s inspiration for building walking machines came after he went to the cinema to see Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (USA, 1980) when he was seven. He was amazed by the four-legged AT-AT robots. "I walked out of the cinema going 'machines that walk’. I couldn't believe it. That was pretty much it, that inspired me!" Throughout his childhood Matt had a love of creating and building machines. "When I got to the age of 13, I was always taking them apart and rebuilding the and making Frankenstein toys out of two things, trying to make them faster or better or bigger!" Matt also credits LEGO® for nurturing his creative curiosity as a child: "LEGO Technic sets fired up my imagination as a child. I probably wouldn’t be doing what I do now without them." After school, he began an electronics apprenticeship, which eventually led to him working on TV show Space Precinct, creating software for robotic machinery as well as at Jim Henson’s Creature Shop. Matt’s dreams then came full circle after he was chosen to work on Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens, and later won an award for his work on the BB8 robot. "My younger self, there is no way that they could believe it, that I would end up working on a film and building a giant walking machine! "It's amazing to be in the Guinness World Records book - it's fascinating! To have that title is fantastic." Always looking for a new and exciting project, Matt is now harking back to his childhood love of LEGO® Technic by printing giant LEGO® kits using a 3D printer, which was lent to him by his friend and fellow record-holder James Bruton (James holds the record for Tallest 3D-printed sculpture of a human). So far he has built a go-kart (98 pieces), a fork-lift truck (216 pieces) and a bulldozer (372 pieces - and 600 hr of 3D printing!).
