Nothing Can Beat Designer Handbags

Just imagine a moderate beautiful looking woman walking down the street with her stylish and trendy handbag. On the contrary, try to get the picture of a woman without her handbag. What difference do you feel here? Might be this: a woman without her handbag seems to be incomplete. It is the opinion of many men that women feel more confident while carrying a stylish handbag than any other ordinary handbag. In a crowded market, we often come across women shopping for their handbags.

The best and trendy handbags are always in great demand among all groups of women. It is difficult for women to find the right kind of designer handbags in market. For getting the favorite one, women have to invest much of their time. Now, in this age of high Internet use, women have another option for buying designer handbags. These days, there are many websites which are solely dedicated to women's collections. These sites also have designer handbag collections.

These designer handbags are presented there in the most artistic way. There is no doubt that these handbags are eye-catching to women. The prices of these products meet the budgets of all women. Even you have to pay a little extra for a particular designer handbag, mind the quality and the style which are priceless. The pride you feel with the support of a designer handbag is merely given by any other ordinary handbag.

All the high-street shops are never same in terms of their products and services so, the same case is with the websites. The website that you choose to do shopping of elite handbags should be the choice of many women. It should have the best trademark for its unique products and services. These are the basic characteristics of any good and popular website. If you have this one then you can freely shop for the ideal designer handbags. Last but not the least women should never forget to make use of various online discounts and offers.

Want to be a pilot?

You may want to check out these airport runways before committing to being one. I wouldn't want to be a passenger on any jets landing on these runways.

The Real Saint Nicholas

On the theme of profiles, Christianity Today has a profile on the historical St. Nicholas.

Supposedly, Nicholas was born to a wealthy family in Patara, Lycia. His parents died, and he inherited a considerable sum of money, but he kept none of it. In the most famous story about his life, he threw bags of gold through the windows of three girls about to be forced into lives of prostitution. At least that's the most common version of the story; there are others, including an excessively grim one where the three girls are beheaded by an innkeeper and pickled in a tub of brine until Nicholas resurrects them.

After a couple of miracles (he's sometimes called Nicholas the Wonder-Worker) performed while he was still a boy, Nicholas was chosen by the people of Myra to be their new bishop. But it wasn't long before Diocletian and Maximian began their persecutions of Christians, and the new bishop was imprisoned.

When Constantine became emperor, Nicholas was released with countless others and returned to his preaching only to find a new threat: Arianism. According to one biographer (writing five centuries after Nicholas's death), "Thanks to the teaching of St. Nicholas, the metropolis of Myra alone was untouched by the filth of the Arian heresy, which it firmly rejected as a death-dealing poison." Other biographers claim Nicholas attacked the heresy of Arius (who denied the full divinity of Christ) in a much more personal way?he traveled to the Council of Nicea and slapped Arius in the face! As the story goes (and this should be taken as fantasy because there are pretty good records of the council, and Nicholas isn't mentioned), the other bishops at Nicea were shocked at such rude behavior and relieved him as bishop. But then Jesus and Mary appeared next to him, and they quickly recanted.

Election 2006

We don't get into partisan politics around here but here are a couple of national news websites that are covering the election.

From the above listed websites, you should be able to get all sorts of election coverage. The official party websites in alphabetical order are.
I took a look around for some local or even Saskatchewan election coverage but I couldn't find any. If you know of anything, leave me a note in the comments.

South Asia :: A Call for Help

From World Relief

Dear Friends,
The tragedy in South Asia has quickly become one of the most serious in history. The sudden loss of life and destruction is overwhelming. I don't have to give you the details because I am certain all of you have seen the heart-wrenching scenes as they have covered our television screens for the last several days.

We have been in constant email and telephone contact with field partners in the effected countries as well as our Integral Alliance partners in Europe, US, and Hong Kong. Everything possible is being done to mobilize resources to attempt to meet the incredible needs.

Without question we need you, our Canadian partners, to pray. The extent of suffering and mourning is beyond what we can comprehend. Relief workers and volunteers are being overwhelmed physically and emotionally and desperately need God's strength. Just this past October a field officer from Stromme Foundation of Norway attended our Integral Alliance conference in Toronto. Nimo works in Sri Lanka, the hardest hit of all the countries. Although he is being called on to direct relief efforts he and his wife are suffering the loss of all of her brothers and sisters.

It is also imperative that churches and each of us as Christians, prayerfully consider giving towards the relief and rehabilitation efforts. Much of the world is rallying, with significant UN and country aid being rushed to the region. But many of our Christian partners such as EFICOR are uniquely positioned to not only meet the physical and emotional needs but also to bring the compassion and hope than can only come from Christ. Their efforts now and through the lengthy rehabilitation phase require our immediate investment.

Christians in Canada have always been so generous in meeting the call of God to respond to those in need. If ever there was a time this is it. The task is truly overwhelming. The geographical extent of this alone is beyond anything the world has faced before. The magnitude of human suffering is unprecedented.

We need the church of Jesus Christ to rise up and carry His restoration to the millions who desperately need help today.

Merry Christmas

Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas. - Calvin Coolidge.

Loving others

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.
Thomas Merton

Genocide in Rwanda

Several times over the last year I have mentioned the Genocide in Rwanda. Here is an overview of the genocide as documented in Wikipedia (an online encyclopedia). Not enjoyable reading but a part of western history and as well as how humanity failed nearly a million people.
