Over the last two years I've walked into many tent communities. My first steps into Sacramento's Tent City [ Day 1 bit.ly Day 2 bit.ly ] I was literally shocked that this was America, yet at the same time overwhelmed that the growth of tent cities will become America's future. I'll never forget the day I walked into Nickelsville [bit.ly Nickelsville [bit.ly ]is a self-governed tent city encouraging real community for support and healing. Call me an old hippie if you want. I fell in love with this tent city model. It truly is gorgeous. But after reflection I saw something else. Nickelsville is a slap in our (homeless services) face. These people should not have to live homeless like this, and the reason they do is because we (homeless services) failed to help them. Point blank the only reason tent cities exist in the first place is because the shelter system is broken. Lily Au [bit.ly a housewife who was once helped by a homeless man and now helps fight homelessness, asked me to visit a tent city in Ann Arbor. After a long drive and a long walk into the woods we arrived at Camp Take Notice [bit.ly It was there I met Caleb Poirier, a brilliant young man who prefers to just say he is the organizer of Camp Take Notice. Below is a short interview with Caleb that I hope you'll take the time to watch. I learned so much from my short time with Caleb. My biggest takeaway is Caleb believes the shelter system is horizontal support meaning help comes down from employees to the ...

And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear. 1 Samuel 13:4 KJV - And all Israel heard say [that] Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and [that] Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal. 1 Samuel 13:5 KJV - And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which [is] on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven. 1 Samuel 13:6 KJV - When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed,) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits. 1 Samuel 13:7 KJV - And [some of] the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead.

When you leave from here, head down Canape Vert to your cooling hotel room, to the breadfruit casserole and barbecue chicken, to the closed in peace of your life, say my name to Bon Dieu, say the name Bebe—he is going to look for me somewhere in Petion Ville in the courtyard of L'ecole de la Republica de Guatemala; behind the low white wall, where a crowd of blue tarpaulin huts, a home like a million homes all over Port-au-Prince—he will find me laughing, singing something by Beyonce or maybe an old hymn I have sung so often while pouring water over my head in the piss-smelling concrete alcove where we get clean; he will see me earning my keep, and from above, all there is to see is the clumsy back of a man hurrying to pour his waiting into me, then the casual slip off, the counting of gourdes, the talk of family, the football score— not tomorrow, maybe Thursday; and he will hear me say something tender, my voice trying to leave him with just enough to look back and see me as a girl, all new, so he will come back, so it is enough to see me as lovely, even when he is confessing to the priest. Bon Dieu will find me greasing my hair, and he will know it is me, Bebe, by my spirit; because it is all I have now. Tell me, before you go, what do you think I am worth, sir? Tell me how much you would pay for me, for just a piece of me to take back ...

Camping Tents to Suit Different Weather Conditions
Camping, in general, means time for fun, enjoyment and relaxation. An important part of your preparation for camping includes having the right knowledge of the weather conditions of the campsite, because ignoring this can ruin your trip.
There are different types of camping tents available, from which you can choose the most suitable one depending on the length of your trip, weather conditions of the visiting area and the terrain.
Weather Based Camping Tents
Apart from the classification of the camping tents into family camping tents, solo camping tents, couple camping tents and the likes, they are also categorized on the basis of the time of the year in which they are utilized.
• Minimalist Tents : These tents are the lightest in weights and can be used if you plan to camp in good weather conditions. These camping tents will also protect you from bugs and rain.
• 3 Season Tents : These would be a good option accessible, if you are planning your trip during the seasons of spring, summer and fall.
• 4 Season Tents : The four season camping tents are especially designed for severe weather conditions like snow, heavy winds. They extend safeguard against harsh weather as, extra poles support the tent structure, rounded shape prevents snow buildup and are heavier in weight as compared to others.
• All Season Tents : They are also known as four- season convertible tents as they can be easily transformed into three-season tents by removing a pole or roof-panel. They can be used the whole year round. The family camping tents are typically all-season camping tents.
Some Basic Requirements
There are some other things to be considered while buying weather based camping tents:
• Easy set-up : The camping tents, you buy, should be practically easy to set up, so that, you can without difficulty assemble them, even when it starts raining or while it gets dark. A-frame tents and dome tents are usually simple to set up.
• Ventilation : Adequate ventilation is necessary in a camping tent. The mesh screens can keep out the bugs as well as the debris if it is windy.

Tents for your Wedding Day
For a woman, her wedding day is one of the most important and unforgettable parts of her life. The wedding day is the day when she gets to live a fairy tale-like event with the man she loves and wants to spend the rest of her life with. More importantly, the wedding is an important transition that will officially declare her lifetime commitment to her partner. The importance of weddings is accepted by people all over the world regardless of race, religion, and social status.
Wedding ceremonies are all about happiness, specifically the bride’s. It is your responsibility as a husband-to-be to keep her smiling at all times. When you’re planning to have a wedding at some point, you have to make everything wonderful for her and your visitors, from the gifts to the reception. After all, this event will practically happen only once.
One good wedding concept is an outdoor wedding.Outdoor weddings beat traditional wedding venues, as outdoor sights can give you a lot more. For instance, you can have your wedding on a beach. You can just set an altar or have it in a pavilion. Another example would be having it on a meadow or on top of a hill. This will leave your guests awed at the sights of a beautiful summer day.
Plan well. There are many factors to consider such as weather conditions, number of guests, and decorations. If you want to celebrate your wedding without thinking about these matters, then you may want to consider getting tent rental services as far as venue is concerned.
Tents have been used for outdoor celebrations for a long time.
They serve as excellent protection against extreme weather conditions such as strong winds, rain, and harsh sunlight. Tent rental companies offer tents in different designs, shapes, and sizes. Find out the functions of each for better selection.When getting tent rental services, select tents with canopies that are roomy enough. Ensure that things such as tables, chairs, dance floors, gifts, and others fit well within the canopy. Also, remember to choose a tent that goes with your wedding motif.

67 Surah Mulk (Full) with Kanzul Iman Urdu Translation Complete Quran
Sūrat al-Mulk (Arabic: سورة الملك) (The Sovereignty, Control; literally 'the kingdom' Dominion) is the 67th sura (chapter) of the Qur'an, comprising 30 ayat. The name of this sura refers to Malik al Mulk (Arabic: مالك الملك) 'The Owner of All Sovereignty', literally 'King of the realm', one of the 99 Names of Allah. The sura preaches the infinite Power of Allah and states that those who reject warnings of Prophets will be companions of the Blazing Fire, meaning they will be punished in Hell. It has been told in Hadith that Prophet Muhammad has said that if every night Surat ul-Mulk is recited, then the reciter shall be protected from the tortures of the grave. Muhammad said, 'There is a surah in the Qur'an which is only thirty verses. It defended whoever recited it until it puts him into paradise' [1] Abu Huraira reported that Muhammad said, "The Qur'an contains a surah of thirty ayats which will intercede for a man until he is forgiven. It is: 'Blessed be He Who has the Kingdom in His Hand!' "[2] Muhammad said, 'Surah al Mulk is the protector from the torment of the grave'[3] Jabir said it was the custom of Muhammad not to go to sleep until he had read Tabarakalladhi Biyadihil Mulk and Alif Laam Meem Tanzeel.[4] Anas reported Muhammad as saying, "There is a Surah which will plead for its reciter till it causes him to enter paradise."[5] Abdullah Ibn 'Abbas reported that the Prophet Muhammad said, 'It is my desire/love that Surahtul Mulk should be in the heart of every ...

She's back to Slash last year's record. Welcome to Camp New Horizons, where an automn retreat brings together a group of obnoxious rich kids and surely city thugs for an "experiment in sharing".

Exodus Chapter 33 in English King James Version
Chapter 33 The Lord refuses to go with the people 1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Depart, and go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it: 2 And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: 3 Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way. 4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments. 5 For the Lord had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto thee. 6 And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb. The tabernacle is removed out of the camp 7 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the Lord went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp. 8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked ...
