Yes, you read the title right, windows phone developer tools for windows phone 7 are now final and you can download it, free for lifetime, and not just 30 days only (:
Everything you need to begin developing apps is included in a single download: Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone, the Windows Phone Emulator, Expression Blend 4 for Windows Phone, and XNA Game Studio 4.0. The installer is smart enough to download only what you need, and the tools will work with your existing Visual Studio 2010 and Expression Blend 4 installations.
Developers can start listing their apps in the marketplace, in early October, you will need to download this version of the tools. Any application built with a previous version of the tools will fail application certification in the Marketplace. When you do submit your application, you can expect it to take about five days to pass or fail certification, though you can check the status of your app submission at any time at the developer portal. For more information on passing certification, please see the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace policies.
Here's a video showing you some of apps-demo:
Panorama Control, Pivot and Bing Maps are part of the final developer tools. Panorama is one of the core components of the Windows Phone Design System (codenamed ‘Metro’) that powers the Hubs that are such a prominent part of the product. Panorama based applications offer a unique manner to view controls, data and services in a long horizontal canvas that extends beyond the confines of the screen, and provides the touch and animation features that invite the user to explore and consume your application. The panorama generally serves as the starting point from which the user can drill into subsequent experiences.

do you see Jesus in me
"do you see Jesus in me?"
Today, this question rings on my head,
do I have the courage to ask this question to people around me.
When I look at myself this past few weeks/months,
I'm ashame to admit that I myself feels hard to see His works through me.
If you can't see Jesus in my life, then there's something wrong with my Christian life.
meaning, I as Christian, should let His light shine through me, to let Him use my life as a blessing to others,
also to set an example in my daily life, and live my life as an open book, for people to see that He is so real.
My life purpose is suppose to be that people may see Jesus in me, that people may know that He is real,
to be the Light and the Salt in my world, and when I do become a blessing, I need to testify that it is not me,
but it is He that is working in me, He that is the source and the true blessing.
He is calling to use our life, as a Christian, it is a privilege to serve Him
our greatest desire should be to love Him, by fulfilling His desire.
