For those first several minutes, it seems as if one can sense the very breath of God come to earth. This brief exchange with holiness is undeniable, a treasured memory forever, and certainly a story worth sharing. These are the stories Nancy Spencer shares in Heaven in My Hands. Accept the invitation to laugh and be surprised and inspired as you read some of the most humorous, tender, poignant, and life-altering births Nancy has encountered in her decades-long midwifery practice. Journey with these families and see the glory of God shining in the face of each sweet little boy and girl.

In 2021, Americans reported a staggering $5.8 billion dollars lost to scammersand fraudulent schemes. Because many scam victims are too embarrassed andashamed to step forward and be identified, this total is believed to reflect onlya fraction of actual losses suffered at the hands of immoral scammers. Sadly,many Americans have lost retirement funds, had homes foreclosed, and livesdestroyed. As the scam industry remains unchecked by government agencies,critics predict that Americans' losses will drastically increase across all age andsocio-economic groups in the coming years. Possibly more frightening is the factthat the scam industry is growing and spreading worldwide. Enough is enough.Now is the time for victims of all nations to join forces against the scam industry,to fight back, and to put scammers out of business for good.

This paper discusses how researchers can augment their traditional publications and share their large research datasets in a format easily analysed by other researchers, while enhancing their own analytic capabilities. The case study is the Queensland Energy and Jobs Plan, and the data portal implemented using Power BI. The data portal presents the results from simulating the effect of implementing the plan on the Australian National Electricity Market, encompassing the eastern seaboard of Australia. The case study incorporates 198 simulations which are parameter sweeps of 9 scenarios of coal generation retirement and transmission augmentation, 2 wind levels, and 11 candidate years representing different weather conditions. The portal development process compares different data extraction, transformation, and load strategies and combines proven processes from Business Analysis and Data Management Bodies of Knowledge. The process result is a portal based on a relational database that provides a template for future projects, is simulation model agnostic, informs simulation model improvements, and provides a foundation for more advanced analytics. Future extensions could address dilemmas in the energy market, such as including generation and storage relying on high-frequency arbitrage within long-term development modelling.
