    A wildlife expedition notebook that contains details about homosexuality, pederasty, necrophilia, and rape? Yep. Scientists say it's those sexy penguins being rowdy again. Today, Susie takes a look at a Guardian article by Tim Stanley that describes a study from the early 1900s, all about the sexual activities of the Antarctic penguin. Susie finds this very interesting and explains why, back then, "lewd" penguin behavior was considered a novelty. But now it seems that anthropomorphism - the practice of attributing human characteristics to animals - has taken on a moral aspect. There is no right or wrong or sexual outrage here. They are animals – not mirrors of ourselves. Get a grip! Next, it's "Tell Me Your Sex Story", our ongoing listener interviews in which people like you step into Susie's sexual confession booth. Today we meet "Lorenzo", who recently told his wife, who likes vanilla-style sex, that he wanted to try swinging. Lorenzo and Susie talk about being bisexual or "trysexual" (I'll try sex with anyone) and what it's like to find out that your parents had a steamy sex life . Then, in our "Try This at Home" mailbag, Susie finds a letter from a man who has religion on his mind. "How can I talk about sex to my conservative church friends?" he asks. Susie is praying her advice will help. Have a question? You can call Susie's hotline at 831-480-5110.

    Mike Sexton once asked Chip Reese, "The guys you play against are tough. What separates you from them?" Chip replied, "You're right, Mike. They are tough. In fact, when they play their 'A' game, I'm really no better than they are. The difference is that they also have a 'C' and 'D' game, whereas I don't. They become weak players when they steam and just about all of them do. My edge is that I don't steam." (From Life's a Gamble, D&B 2016.) If you've ever wondered if the psychological aspect of poker is important, that should provide the answer.

    For some of us, being a Christian is harder than it should be. Discouraged, anxious, worn down, we wonder what happened to the power and the joy that Jesus promised. Jim Cymbala believes that many of us are missing something vital. Christianity, he says, for even the best-intentioned person or church, is impossible without the Holy Spirit. You can have regular devotions, great preaching, a strong emphasis on the Bible, a great worship team, and a congregation that is trying, but if you aren’t vitally in touch with God’s Spirit, you are missing out on the life God has for you. The Holy Spirit, he points out, is God’s agent on earth. Yet he is the least understood, least preached about, and least discussed member of the Trinity. That is sad, because without him, our spiritual lives will always become dry, mechanical, and a struggle. Too often, the body of Christ is divided into two sides. One side stresses the Word of God, separating itself from what it views as the emotional fanaticism often linked to those emphasizing the Holy Spirit. The other side is sometimes known for drifting into unbiblical manifestations and unorthodox teaching while attributing it all to the Spirit of God. But the Christianity we see in Scripture is both grounded in the Word and full of the Spirit. With stunning stories of how God is working in the lives of people and churches today and biblical teaching about the Holy Spirit, Jim Cymbala invites you to experience God in a fresh and vital way. Nothing else will change our prayer life, our study of God’s word, and our worship more than opening our hearts to the Spirit. If we want power, confidence, joy, peace, and more love in our lives, then we need a better understanding of how and why the Spirit moves so we can join him there. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Sleep Better With Your 7-Day Sleep Challenge. Why are you reading this? Because:  You want to fall asleep faster and stay asleep every night.You want to cure insomnia that is disrupting your sleep cycle.You want to stop feeling tired all the time from sleep deprivation. You want to not use sleep medications but opt for natural methods. You want to improve your focus and productivity throughout the day.  The average adult needs around seven to nine hours of sleep each night, according to the National Sleep Foundation. Sadly, many get far less than that bare minimum, and it’s affecting their lives negatively and decreasing their ability to function properly.  The truth is, roughly 70 million people in the United States alone are already suffering from some kinds of sleep disorders, and that number is only going to rise to a staggering 100 million by the middle of the 21st century.  In the conventional sense, there are medications to diagnose sleep disorders, but it goes without saying there are potentials for side effects, dependence, harm, and even death from accidental overdose.  That’s why you should address the issue at the core rather than put a band-aid over the symptom with some pills that carry unknown long-term consequences.  There is an underlying source attributing to your sleep problems - and that is exactly what the 7-Day Sleep Challenge will tackle head-on in only a week. You’ll get practical applications and strategies that are both hands-on and effective, including:Sleep-aid hacks using scents, sounds, lighting, air, and temperature A custom detailed plan to follow to ritualistically get ready for bed Behavior modifications for establishing new sleeping patterns  All of these things and many more are simple to do and will dramatically improve the quality of your sleep.  So are y ungekürzt.

    From award-winning literary criminologist and bestselling crime novelist R. Barri Flowers, author of the acclaimed Dean Drake hard-boiled audio mystery Dead in the Rose City, comes the much-anticipated sequel, Alive in the Rose City (Dean Drake Mysteries, Book 2).  Dean Jeremy Drake, a six-five, biracial private eye, nicknamed D.J., is once again up to his neck in danger, deception, and murder as he works three cases in Portland, Oregon, in the mid-1990s.  The former Police Bureau homicide detective reluctantly agrees to be the bodyguard for a gorgeous lady named Bailey Carlyle, who claims to be on the run from her abusive boyfriend. When the boyfriend turns up dead and is identified as running a high-end call girl operation, the authorities point the finger at Bailey as a leading suspect in his murder, labeling her a jealous and vindictive prostitute. As he is seemingly her alibi, Drake works to prove Bailey’s innocence or guilt, possibly to his own detriment.  He also looks into the alleged suicide of former gang member, Liam Henriquez, on behalf of his grief-stricken grandmother, who insists he would never have taken his own life. The police think otherwise, attributing the death to either depression or issues related to his old life.  Lastly, Drake searches for a missing college student, Olivia McNamara, who is presumed dead by the police after disappearing without a trace months ago. Only her mother and stepfather believe she is still alive and hire Drake to try and prove it.  Packing a .40 caliber Glock, along with sharp detective skills, raw nerve, and gut instincts, Drake follows the clues wherever they may lead with a never-quit attitude, in spite of the obstacles and peril that he faces the closer he gets to solving the cases.  For fans of Dead in the Rose City, PI Dean Drake will be equally entertaining in Alive in the Rose City.  Bonus material include a complete mystery sho ungekürzt.

    There are so many spiritual truths in hymns of old that still stand the test of time. Although many hymns may have been popular at the time they were written, it is mainly the ones that are anchored in timeless Biblical truths and memorable tunes that have lasted to this day in practical use in many denominations and churches throughout the world. However, these hymns can suffer from 'old age' and can end up being 'retired' for supposed lack of usefulness and relevance in today's society. Just as the older generation have much they can teach the younger ones, so these older hymns have much to teach our newer 'spiritual songs'. Let's face it, style changes but that doesn't mean we should discard what was popular in past years merely on the basis of the musical style of the time. Take clothing for instance. Since the beginning people have been the same. We all have, or are designed to have, a head, torso, two arms and two legs (to put it simply). But how we build upon this to present ourselves to the world has been ever changing. What we wore two or three centuries ago looks a little out of place in today's society. Sure, it may be a novelty to wear these outfits and turn heads, but it's practicality could be called into question and you wouldn't put it on for everyday use. Even in particular settings like that of a courthouse the traditional garb has given way, to a certain extent, to contemporary business attire and even the judicial wigs have been lost in many parts of the world. Putting this into the context of church music, although the hymns of the past have melody and substance, I believe they could do with a style change to help them 'fit with today's styles' and therefore be available to use in a wider context - not only the traditional 'mainstream' churches and worship settings but also the newer 'contemporary' settings that abound so much in society today. Of course, one runs the risk of relegating them to the mundane, simple, forgettable, short shelf-life songs that often abound in today's fast paced, technological culture, and therefore taking away some of the characteristics that have helped them stand the test of time. Taking this into consideration I have attempted, where possible, to keep with the same words, melody, tempo and chord textures as the original hymns. This helps those of us who are familiar with the originals. However, the new settings also allow the possibility of opening the eyes and ears of those who have yet to experience the beauty and depth, the wonderful doctrinal truths and melodies held in these hymns. Where I have strayed from this path I have aimed at breaking our own rote singing of the hymns to provoke us into rethinking what is being sung. Most of us today don't think twice about utilising modern technology in our food preparation. We don't go out of our way to use wood or coal ovens if we can help it. Electric and gas ovens as well as microwaves are used to produce wonderful dishes. These new technologies can make a recipe taste different than when it was first cooked years ago using older technology - even if it was cutting edge at the time. Don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that these hymns are (or taste) ineffective or inadequate in the state in which they have been held in over the centuries. What I am trying to achieve here is the use of today's technologies and styles to prepare and re-season these wonderful hymns so that more people will be exposed to them and want to 'consume' them. In no way am I seeking to alienate those who have 'dined out' for years on these hymns in their original styles. However, as our taste buds get used to a certain flavour until we no longer taste the nuances of all the attributing flavours, we can become nonchalant to what the 'hymn meal' has to offer. With a bit of salt, pepper, spice and seasoning I hope these hymns will tantalise your taste buds and reopen your spiritual eyes and ears - that your tongue will, once again or for the first time, sing the seasoned songs of yesteryear. Although the concept for this album came about around 2007, it was whilst studying for a Bachelor of Media Arts (Honours) degree at Waikato Institute of Technology, Hamilton, New Zealand, in 2010 that this project got off the ground and became what you see before you now. ****On the CD are the arrangements themselves as well as MP3 backing tracks (no vocal), lead sheets and chord sheets for each hymn, a video and photos.**** Backing tracks with backing vocals are available on request. "Taste and see that the Lord is good" Psalm 34:8 Bon appétit!
